129 pride
I fly, jump, roll, and crawl on the ground to evade the f*cking dragon's attack.
The earth and rocks I avoided crumbled and popped, changing the terrain drastically every few moments.
There's no respite for a moment, a series of tensions.
--The d*mn dragon's attack itself was still somehow able to see through it.
The reason being, for having a title like "usurper", the attack of the d*mn dragon is rather straightforward and its trajectory is easy to read. It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're doing.
Perhaps because they are overwhelmingly strong, they have crushed their enemies by forceful force, so they don't know how to mix their attacks with deception.
You are a brainless bastard.
It's also because of this demon king's body.
I've often thought that my dynamic vision is very good because of my demon's eyesight, but I somehow managed to catch its attacks just in time, really just in time.
...... And maybe his usurper's title counts as a crime title.
That's why the effects of my "absconder" title have been applied to it, so there may be some compensation in the status.
But, well, ...... still, the last thing I'll do when I lose focus is to go straight to the grind.
I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do anything about it. Hmm?
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier, but I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier.
The flame of sin--it won't be flicked!
It may be because the place where he had just attacked was a place with thin scales.
But it is true that the Flame of Sin's sword blade ripped into the flesh of the d*mn dragon and made its blood flow.
When I tried it on the material I got, it didn't stand up to me at all. ...... This guy's scales must be softer than Rephi's.
"Huh? What's going on? You're bleeding from a bug attack.
"............
A powerful magical reaction.
It's coming from right under my feet.
I immediately try to get out of there, but I'm too late, and it explodes.
The ground beneath my feet explodes, and a moment later a powerful shock hits me.
"Caff--
Like a piece of trash, my body rolls over and comes to a halt when it hits a large rock around me.
My lungs can't take in air from the impact, and my breathing stops for a moment.
"Huh, huh, huh. ......
I force a deep breath to pump oxygen into my body and whip my aching body to stand up.
Then, as I raised my weapon, the d*mn dragon's fangs loomed in front of me.
I'm going to throw out my entire body and roll away from the spot, and then quickly regain my position and wave the flame of sin into its neck, but the dragon is wary of the fact that the blade of the flame of sin has just passed through it, and it cowered and ducked.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier.
A heavy dull ache in my flickering vision.
Awareness that threatens to vanish if I'm not careful for a moment.
"Look, Lephios! This man is only glib, but he's as good as the dust! I still deserve better than you to be with me!
"............
Leffy squeezed her mouth into a knot and stared at me, arms crossed, not moving.
She didn't move, trusting that I would take care of it.
You can't just go to ....... A self-centered bastard like you don't deserve to be Leffi. Don't talk about it, you idiot.
It's a very good idea to have a gulp of the potion in your mouth, as the thigh potion was used up long ago, so I took out a new potion from the item box and gulped it down in one gulp.
--The only reason I'm still alive is because I'm still alive.
I'm going to be the first to admit that I'm a bit of a jerk.
Perhaps she can only shake me as much as she can, show her haplessness to Leffi and show off her power.
This d*mn dragon can't help but want to undermine me.
Huh? ...... That won't help you.
Refi knows about my clumsiness at ・・・・・・.
I wonder how long Leffi and I are together, day in and day out.
We know what kind of guys and personalities we are and what kind of personalities we have with each other so well that we know each other well through our intense days.
We don't live together every day.
This is what the clumsy one with the crooked crouch says. Now you're just as miserable as a worm.
Ugh, crap. I'm telling you, even bugs are strong, you know.
Especially ants and bees. They are definitely one of the strongest guys in this forest.
I'm going to be able to get the best out of it.
But ...... the f*cking dragon is not going to give me any grace.
And as soon as you stand up, your crisis-sensing skills will tell you that there is danger from the left rear.
Without looking at it, I dive forward to avoid it, and a gong and something else sticks right where I was.
As I dodged, I caught a brief glimpse of a thick spear made entirely of black.
It's probably some kind of magic the black dragon uses.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to get rid of that one ...... but the crisis that the crisis detection skill tells you about doesn't end there.
The next thing I knew, there was a black spear floating all around me 360 degrees, just like this one.
A moment later when I recognize it, it's pouncing on me all at once!
Tsk!
I ducked the black spears rolling on the ground, playing with the flame of sin, and twisting my body.
However, it's not possible to avoid all of the black spears that were deployed, and dozens of them snatched my body and tore out my flesh, some of them stabbing into my body and stopping me.
I'm not going to be able to get rid of them.
I was able to prevent a fatal wound by desperately guarding it, but it stabbed into my leg in a disgusting place, and then suddenly the power drained out of my leg with a thud, and I poked my knee.
Then, right in front of me, the tail of the d*mn dragon approaches.
Naturally, I was unable to avoid the attack, as I had wounds all over my body, and the black spear struck the tail forcefully in the state of a needle-mouse, and I was blown off three times in the air.
"--Kahhh, hah, hah ......!
Apparently, I was momentarily unconscious. The next thing I knew, I was lying on the ground, and the blue sky was filling my vision.
My paused breathing resumed, my lungs and heart were palpitating violently, begging for fresh air.
At the same time, as I regained consciousness, my whole body was feasting on the full course of pain. The pain is so intense that I feel like I'm going to scream and writhe on the ground.
With shaking hands, I pull out all the black spears that are still stuck in my body, dripping blood, and open the item box again.
Taking out a potion from the crack in the void, I crush the bottle in my palm and pour the liquid over my body as if I can't bear to drink it anymore.
"Can you still die? You're a nasty little life force, you're a worm!
With an annoyed look on his face, he sneered at me, and I...
"...... Hehehe.
--He laughed.
"Hehe, hehe. ...... hehe.
Sounds like fun. Shaking his shoulders.
Laughing, he stands up like a wraith.
--Ready, ready.
"...... You've finally lost your mind. I'm so miserable I don't know what to say.
The f*cking dragon looks down at me with contempt in his eyes, and I .
"Hey, f*cking dragon--watch your step!
Nii, the edge of the mouth twisted wide, and - in the menu that had been open (...) for a long time (...), pressed one button.
--Immediately after, the ground underneath the d*mn dragon's feet disappears.
It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.
What--
It's not a metaphor, but a metaphorical swordsman that extends its blade vigorously toward the heavens, with a venomous color on the tip.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to get rid of it because ...... you're a winged man. I'm sure you'll be able to avoid it that way.
The huge body of the f*cking dragon that jumped up touched the countless magic traps fixed in the air by specially spending DP, which triggered a chain of explosions one after another.
The explosive flames dyeing the space.
A roaring sound that shakes the earth.
--Eventually, after the black smoke cleared, a slightly sooty, slightly damaged d*mn dragon appears.
Thank goodness it seems to have worked.
If I'd done all of this and taken zero damage, I was going to cry.
I'm sure you're going to be able to find a way to make it happen.
"Heh, ...... I gave you most of my DP's for a big discount. Feel free to take it.
I've been trying to summon new subordinates, transforming the armor obtained from Lephi's former abode not long ago, using almost all of the DP that was quite plentiful due to the accumulation of the demon hunting that I've been doing lately, the area around here now is where I continue to sneak around while being beaten to a pulp by the f*cking dragon, and The traps I just activated are everywhere.
A minefield is not an easy thing to walk through.
If the opponent isn't such a nonstandard being as a dragon tribe, this place has become a place where you'll go to the other world the moment you step off the sidewalk (・・・・・・・・・) and you'll be dead (・・・・・・・).
--This is what I've been after from the beginning.
The only person who can win a head-to-head battle against such an overwhelming difference in power is the hero in the story.
And I'm not a character in the story and I'm not a hero.
So in order for such an ordinary person, or rather the ordinary demon king, to win against an opponent with a gap in strength, I naturally have no choice but to use evil and cowardly methods.
Above all, this is a dungeon where I am the law and I am the world.
I'm the law and the world, the dungeon.
--Come on, dungeon. Hey, I can't lose. Give me all kinds of dirty tricks.
And as if he didn't like the fact that he'd been taunted by the opponent he'd made fun of so far, I grinned at the d*mn dragon with a look of rage on my face and said to him.
"Well, let's begin round two.
