Chapter 747

Leeha looked back and forth between the two with a surprised expression.

“What? Why are you looking at us like that?”

“I bet my deduction skills left you both amazed. Or are you surprised by the unofficial Minis-Fibiel Joint Investigation Couple?”

“T-That! Don’t call us a couple!”

“Well, since there are two of you, it’s a couple. If there were three, it’d be a triple! Four would be a quadruple! Don’t you agree?”

“Ugh, just stop it!”

Shin Nara’s hand swiftly moved. Normally, she would have drawn her own rapier and struck Lark with enough force to knock some sense into him, but this time, she simply smacked Lark’s shoulder with a thud.

Despite receiving the blow, Lark continued to chuckle as if nothing had happened.

Watching them, Leeha sighed and spoke up.

“To be honest, I was a bit impressed, but you ruined it with that conversation. So, in the worst-case scenario, what’s the plan based on ‘realistic worst assumptions’? How do we handle this?”

As Leeha brought them back to reality, Shin Nara looked at Leeha with a slightly puzzled expression. However, being a woman burdened with the duty of being a member of the city defense corps, she quickly shook her head and returned to reality as well.

“Blaugrunn, how powerful is an Undead Dragon?”

“First, we need to determine whether it’s a Bone Dragon or a Lich Dragon. If it’s the former, it mainly relies on physical abilities, but if it’s the latter... since it can also use magic to some extent, skilled spellcasters could even reproduce its breath attack.”

“A breath attack? That’s insane... How about control? Are they different when there are multiple dragons?”

“It depends on the spellcaster. A high-level Necromancer could control an Undead Dragon with intelligence and instincts, but a lower-level one might only have a huge dragon-shaped doll.”

“Hmm, I think I understand the feeling, but... it doesn’t make the situation any better.”

If the worst-case scenario holds, how should Leeha assess Igor and Faust?

‘The two of them could handle an Adult Dragon raid. Igor has the speed and strength to wipe out a juvenile within 20 minutes.’

If Faust is on a similar level as Igor, then his Undead Dragon would be no pushover.

“Let’s say there are five Lich Dragons... Would Alexander just stand there with his sword? If five Adult Lich Dragons unleash their breath attacks, even Bailephus, even if he’s an ancient-class, would struggle. And... I’m supposed to stop them?”

As the preparations for the expedition to the New Continent draw to a close, it’s not easy to mobilize the Knights or any other forces.

Do they have to gather the players to stop them? Well-behaved players might actually hinder us more than help us. What remains is ultimately gathering the Rankers. Even doing it a couple of times these days was too tiring to call the Rankers and solve the problems. It’s not only difficult to gather the Rankers, who are the most passionate about leveling up ‘species’, but also to guard against attacks once they are gathered due to the unreliable communication system. Moreover, isn’t it unclear where exactly to guard against?

“Then how...”

“How should we guard...”

The three sighed deeply, two fluttering robes overlooking the city in the dark moonlight.

“Hehehe, is it this time? What’s around here?”

“White dragon. It has been 560 years since it entered adulthood.”

“Oh, he was the toughest among the ones so far, right? Can you handle it? Plus, this time you have to do it alone.”

Igor chuckled while looking at Faust. Fangs that were not seen between the Giant’s lips before now protruded.

“With that guy, it’ll be fine. But are you worried about me? You’re going to attack a city this time, not just a village. The knights there must be at a different level than the security guards so far.”

“Puhahah! I’m curious. Are you worried about me? Knights~?”Updated chapters at novelhall.com

Faust smiled back at Igor’s casual tone. Faust’s fangs were sharp to begin with. However, his two fangs were unique to the point of being unbelievable compared to the lizard’s fangs. No, it wasn’t just a problem with the fangs. The figure of Faust, who was once a ‘White’ Lizardia, faintly reflected under the moonlight, was covered in dark Brown spotted patterns like a leopard.

“I can’t help but worry. Even with ‘that guy,’ if I handle it alone, this dragon is going to be quite loud. If I can’t resolve it in time, it will disrupt our plans. You must already know that the observant ones have probably started investigating-“

“That arrogant talk for being 9th place. I’ll finish it within 25 minutes, so don’t worry. Some ninja fool who doesn’t have a clue will open the space, so we’ll get in.”

“If we loot the lair, we’ve completed over half of the goal.”

“Hehe, the speed is impressive. Just this much for ‘over half’?”

“Really?”

As Faust looked at him, Igor immediately shut his mouth. He blamed himself for the slip of the tongue that the excitement right before the battle had caused, but fortunately, Faust couldn’t question him any further. Hoooong... In the distance, a huge dome of indigo light appeared over the city.

“Let’s go, berserker-. No... [Bloodsucker].”

“Gah! Don’t call me by an unfamiliar name, there’s no coolness in pretending like that.”

–

In less than a minute, Igor, who had killed nearly 50 people, caused screams wherever he moved.

They knew.

They had no way to escape from this place.

Informing that a blood-using monster was attacking Fiorenza City was their best option.

-In Fiorenza City Indiscriminate Massacre-

Even Igor’s super-fast speed couldn’t prevent it that.

Users fleeing while talking to themselves, the general store locked with boards; none of them could convey their situation, let alone what the current condition of the city was.

There was only one person. No matter how fast his movements were, as long as he had one physical body, there were limits.

It was common sense.

Until they saw Igor’s movements.

“This is insane! How can you detect movements that aren’t even visible-“

“It’s a bug! A bug, a hacker user! That bastard is a hacker.”

“Kaka, who are you calling a hacker!?”

Swoosh-!

The attacker’s figure couldn’t be seen.

Suddenly appearing in front of them was a gigantic robe, within which gleamed bright red eyes. Before the users could even recognize his appearance or grasp his voice completely, their bodies were already being torn apart vertically or horizontally.

Due to the fact that death occurred in a single blow, the usernames were not displayed in the notification window, and the fact that it had been a long time since the previous incident in which someone in the third place had managed to hide their appearance on Chiyou’s side were among the reasons this incident did not spread widely.

“Now, five minutes, very easy. Very, very easy. Kaka!”

Prioritizing quick-witted users, then handling the knights organizing themselves, and then dealing with the pathetic weaklings shivering in place, even the method of killing in order of priority, Igor’s battle was flawless.

If only there were eyes watching over him.

“Oh, look, there’s another idiot here! A big one at that, must be quite satisfying to deal with!”

On the rooftop of a building in a corner of the city. There was someone watching Igor from there. In an instant, Igor leaped towards that place.

The quite a distance away disappeared in a moment, and Igor swung his sword without a word.

Kaaa—-ng...!

“Huh?!”

Momentarily taken aback by the tremendous impact noise.

No one had ever blocked Igor’s sword until he arrived in the second village!

“Indeed, that’s how it is.”

“Who are you?”

Growling, Igor bared his fangs.

“84 cases of public facility damage, destruction work on five locations, innumerable counts of murder... You are identified as a heinous criminal interfering with the national interest of Minis.”

The user on the rooftop of the building lowered their hood. Cheka’s distorted face was shining there.

“I will arrest you as a current offender, Igor.”

“Who? Who is it?”

Shwaaaaack-!

Igor was not someone to fear a nameless secret agent. A swift, large horizontal slash from left to right!

Cheka immediately took a guard position facing Igor’s sword. Unbeknownst to himself, Igor smiled.

“You think you can block my sword with just your arm!? You’re seriously, seriously insane!”
