Return of the Archmage

Episode Two: Sage vs Undead Dragon

1.

The tail of the undead dragon flies in.

a giant tail

When faced with a robbery called the O'Halcon, the weak human body is no stranger to bursting out.

Same goes for Sage.

She's also a dragon, but she's polymorphic.

The dragon's tail is different, even though it cannot be damaged by a slight shock because it is a modified body like Lee Hye-sung.

Avoid.

It was a pattern that was completely different from Dragon Road and Sage's fighting style, but he curled up without hesitation.

To win, you have to give up your pride.

Sage at the top of the food chain is the biggest reason for the sage is so strong!

He waits with his body curled up for a while and then extends his feet toward the huge tail that is approaching.

I'm not trying to push you away.

Whoosh-

It's about using a reaction.

In no time, something hard touches two feet that pushes the air away from the air.

I didn't confirm what it was.

Instead, it adapts to the strong force.

Pot-!

The body flies in the direction of the tail.

There is no damage at all.

Although you don't have the power to stop and break the dragon tail, at least you can accept the power of the undead dragon tail and protect yourself.

That's not the end.

Turn your body and ride on the back of the undead dragon.

"You're arrogant."

The ease that you do not lose in the midst of struggle.

With a fascinating smile hanging around the mouth, an attack began on the joint of the wing's death.

***

The Imperial Palace is a symbol of the Empire.

Although the emperor is vacant, the palace and stone statues established by the first emperor.

It means the empire is strong and a space to honor the hero who defeated the devil.

That place was invaded.

It breaks and destroys. It's destroyed.

A corps of knights was quickly called to protect him.

It was less than five minutes.

It's time to cross the front yard pond of the palace even if the devil came over again.

However, the palace I saw when I arrived was already in ruins.

"…that."

And I looked.

An undead dragon roaring in the sky and a woman.

The sky-high fabric has already been torn apart for a year, and even though it is a war rhyme, it is overwhelming to wield a sword at the undead dragon without a break, regardless of other people's eyes.

I haven't seen him for a long time.

Because it's not the time to look blank.

Nor was he in a position to do anything.

"……what the hell is this threshold?"

The boundaries that control Mana.

The boundaries that spread around the area, including the palace, were enough to keep the knights running.

What kind of enemy is he to build such a strong boundary?

If the nine-circle wizard cannot be solved, it would be the second crisis on the continent following the invasion of the devil.

I arrived with my life on the line, but I can't even risk my life.

"How come……."

The undead dragon is attacking.

I'm sure the timing of the first emperor is on the line.

What if that undead dragon turns to the enemy?

Will I be able to catch it?

Wizards and knights without Mana?

My head shakes automatically.

Just imagining it doesn't take away your confidence.

I'm watching right in front of my eyes.

A battle of unknown women.

Undead Dragon's movements, one by one.

It's so fast that you can't even catch it with your eyes.

It's fast and huge so you can't even avoid it.

However, he is powerful enough to lose his mind even if he is hit by a single blow.

You must avoid all attacks and kill an opponent who has no weakness.

Is it possible?

I end up praying without realizing it.

I hope she catches it. I pray without conscience.

"Ah!"

Soon after, the commander of the Knights came to mind.

"Is it him……".”

Gently sigh.

The eyes of the Knights are on them.

Curiosity

Even though it is the second crisis in which a new empire has been established, one can't help but wonder.

They're the best knights on the continent.

If you tell them to fight the undead dragon 1:1 like that, they'll shake their heads.

I'm curious and jealous at the same time.

What kind of person is he to be so strong?

"Dragon Lord, the witch that the first emperor talked to until he was so thirsty."

"……Ah!"

"Not long ago, that's how you looked when you faced a saint."

But soon jealousy disappears.

Because I was convinced.

Dragon

The strongest being in the clan.

a magic stallion

"Well."

I heard it from Lee Hye-sung, but I am amazed at how he is good at swordmanship.

How can he not even use magic?

Suddenly, I remember the time when I was with a saint.

At the time when thousands of Holy Knights and key Knights of the Empire were together.

I thought I would have a chance to win no matter how Dragon Road is.

"You saved my life.”

"……if that's the case with the polymorph.”

The fact that he was considered for his life without even realizing it is more creepy than I thought.

There is a rush of helplessness.

But there's only one reason why they're unwavering.

Because I was trained by Lee Hye-sung every day.

I watch in silence.

Dragon Lord, I've never seen him before, but he's somehow familiar.

"How come I'm mistaken for the overlapping images of the first emperor?”

"I can't believe you look so beautiful.…. Actually, so am I."

What should I say?

It's definitely pretty, but it's so noble that I don't even dare to look at it, but it makes me frown and I don't want to be close to it.

The undead dragon roared once again while everyone was silent on the mysteriousness.

"Crash!"

Fall with him.

With a cut wing.

2.

"Sigh. Ha.

A rare experience, feeling out of breath, sage soaked her lips.

The taste of blood lingers in my mouth, making me realize once again that I am currently in polymorph.

to be hard

feelings worth living for tens of thousands of years

I want to thank Lee Hye-sung again for making me feel that emotion.

"Darn it, son of a bitch.

You prepared a perfect gift for me.

The initial ease is nowhere to be found.

Dragons are a species after all.

If it's not God, it's time to die.

He lives for a similar time in eternal life, and his sense of death has become dull, so he just leaves, but he does not want to die.

He especially hates dying in polymorphic conditions.

I was upset.

You die from someone weaker than you without even using all your strength.

As a result, the hidden emotions raise their heads.

"Should I go out and kill Mana with recovery?"

No one told me not to.

Even Lee Hye-sung, who prepared a gift, must have done the same.

Even Sage thinks, as well as she knows him, Lee Hye-sung knows her well.

That would have been the reason and purpose of preparing the gift in the first place.

And I'm sure you expected it.

The emptiness that Sage feels when she compromises with herself.

Impotence. Regret. Anger.

The fact that he ran away the moment he left the line because he didn't want to die follows Sage all his life.

This is a deadly disaster for a dragon who lives with pride that he is the strongest and that God does not fall behind.

"You're funny. I'll visit you one day and bother you again.”

That's why Sage pushed her shaky emotions deep inside again.

It's hard, but not as hard as giving up.

It wasn't just that I was out of breath without income.

A wing of the undead dragon was cut off.

Air combat without Mana is a big penalty for her.

I cleared the penalty.

The real battle begins now.

the basics of swordsmanship

Having the land to support her lower body means she will be able to bring out her real strength from now on.

"Stop."

Before that, Sage decided to solve the problem first.

the creeping popularity

Humans surrounding the undead dragon with weapons.

"Help! Dragon Lord."

"I'm doing it alone."

"But……."

"It's a gift that he gave me. I will not forgive anyone who tries to take away my gift."

If he was going to get help, he would have gotten out of the threshold the easiest and fastest in the first place.

There is only one reason why not.

Most perfectly, to destroy his gift without achieving anything that Lee Hye-sung wanted.

You must not bury a single flaw.

I don't think of a deep smile coming down my lips.

The harder it gets.

to be fun

A gift that exactly hit her taste.

"I want to lock him up for three years and bully him.”

I want to repay you.

He looks back at the humans and grabs the sword again.

I wonder if I can play the role of a sword, which is out of teeth and insignificant, but I don't care.

Grand Sword Master.

Sword on the sword.

The stage of killing an enemy with the idea of where to stab, not what sword to hold.

The joint between bones.

Even there, only robberies that can't even be scratched by ordinary iron swords are dug in and broken.

bones that separate one by one

The Knights do not take their eyes off the possibility of missing one.

"That's the power of the first emperor's teacher...….”

"Grand Sword Master."

"Sword on every sword."

Even if he is not a knight, he does not use a sword, but he does not look at it in vain.

They know because they are at the top of one field.

a dissuaded noble

thoughts in motion, willingness to attack.

It's a battle that shows how to attack a perfect opponent and how to deal with an enemy with no weakness.

If it wasn't a sword, Dragon Road would have been so overwhelming.

That's how the undead dragon's arms and legs were cut off.

Victory

The Knights thought.

I won this one.

Dragon Road.

I totally destroyed Lee Hye-sung's gift.

Sage thought so, too.

"Whoo."

I thought so and took a deep breath and enjoyed some relaxation.

"Crawa, "Crawa!"

If the undead dragon hadn't let out a powerful mana with a final roar, he would have ended it with a triumphant joy.

"…...you crazy bastard."

Mana recovered from within the controlled boundaries.

The undead dragon.

in its original state

“…….”

“…….”

Everyone is in shock.

The bones that were broken were set, nothing more than that, but it is a foul considering Sage, who is facing the limit.

"You were after this."

enjoy the joy of victory Sage, who was hit in the back of the head, smirked.

That's when I realized it.

Lee Hye Sung's true meaning.

I didn't want her to run away or hurt her pride with help.

"I knew that couldn't be the case in the first place.”

Lee Hye-sung knew her better than I thought.

That you can't give her a punch like that.

So I prepared it.

I feel empty.

"You fucking son of a bitch."

Also

He's a human being I acknowledge.

What makes me feel proud is what Dragon Loader can do.

The tension in the battle cooled for an instant.

"This is what sage time is like.”

I feel so uncomfortable.

The way I teased Lee Hye-sung the most pleasantly for 20 years is back, which makes me proud and dirty at the same time.

"Crawa!"

Under the circumstances, the crying undead dragon is an irritation itself.

Whoosh-

Sage resonated.

Mana still doesn't exist.

My body is tired, too.

Nevertheless, the intangible energy that resonates is overwhelming.

Existence!

"Get down."

The undead dragon's roar stopped.

Then he comes up and rubs Sage's cheek.

“…….”

Sage's sage time was transferred to all the knights who were watching the battle.
