　The bright star of the dawn was a full-body red drake. Even his eyes were bright red, which made me feel something different from ordinary drakes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Facing such a monster, I was reminded of the fact that I was a small demon tribe.

　In times like this, I should have let my feelings be roused, even if it was a lie.

　I chant a measure of the incantation and release a magic arrow. It's an energy bolt spell, but it's a beginner level spell.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It may be a beginner's level, but mine was specially made. I create nearly ten energy arrows at the same time and skewer the drake with them.

　--The drake charges at me with no regard for my magic arrows.

　Eyes bloodshot, fangs bared, he tries to eat me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I dodge his fangs with a dash and make plans to defeat him.

　I think that I can do some damage by casting a spell of forbidden magic, but I wonder which spell of forbidden magic would be most effective against the drake.

　But it takes only a few seconds. I didn't want to bother the three years olds by thinking too long.

　The three of them would kill as many drakes as they could, but it was just a matter of time. And if he did it slowly, it was inevitable that they would complain about it later and make him buy them drinks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was willing to buy him a drink, but if I was going to buy him a drink, I wanted to celebrate with a good feeling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, I decided to finish the matter at once.

"Well, it's been a while since I've used summoning magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I summon the King of Spirits, whom I have not called for a long time since I defeated the Demon King Sabnak.

"Drake is a kind of fire dragon, so I should summon a spirit of ice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A simple idea, but the effect would be very effective.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thinking so, I chant a spell.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Inexhaustible water in the atmosphere, the cryogenic evil that stirs in the chasm between worlds.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I approve your unblessed union.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Come forth!　Fenrione, Queen of the Ice!"

　As she finishes chanting, the temperature drops and a half-human, half-beast woman emerges.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She was a beautiful woman, but she looked ruthless and noble.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The queen, who had the nobility not to wag her tail to any powerful person, chanted in the language of the spirits with bright blue lips. She approached Drake as if dancing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She forces Drake into her embrace to give him the kiss of death.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The area embraced by the Ice Queen freezes in a flash. The two drakes scream, but the Ice Queen does not care and delivers the final blow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She forces Akeno to kiss Meisei's eyelids, and Drake's eyeballs instantly freeze and shatter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When the drake freezes his brain, he stops fighting back and roaring, and falls to the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The queen, having witnessed the death of the Drake king, smiles wryly and disappears into the snowy sky.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And so the two Drakes are defeated, but then I notice something.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Something is wrong. The Drake's reinforcements are still coming from afar. And it seems that Toshizo and his men are still fighting back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought that defeating the two-name Drake would end the organized rebellion of the Drakes, but something was wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At that moment, a warning signal flashed through my mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh no!　Wasn't he the only Drake with two names?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At that moment, a second Drake appears out of the forest. It is a duplicate of the one we just defeated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So these two Drakes are twins..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I realized this, but the moment I realized this, my back was taken.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Drake's hard claws struck me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For a moment I thought of death, but I couldn't die in a place like this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was not ready to give up. I focused on defensive magic to at least avoid a fatal wound, but I was one step too late.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Drake's claw did not reach me. Drake began to writhe in agony one step before I could reach him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I saw that Drake had an arrow in his right eye. Something had shot an arrow and saved my life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't have to panic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I didn't need to panic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There are not many archers who can shoot an arrow in such a place, at such a time, with such precision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I shouted the archer's name.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Robin Hood!"　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As soon as I shout his name, he announces his presence from deep in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From the branches of a great tree he shouts loudly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's been a long time, Demon Lord! I have returned to be your servant, as I promised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Robin Hood smiles wryly. On his shoulder is Sue the carbuncle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Your timing is as if you've timed it. It's like something out of a novel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't deny it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But the timing is too good. Readers today are so cynical, they might complain."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't deny it, but I didn't come here without a sign. Your ninja reported me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You mean that Kotaro Kazama informed you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, I was told that my master was wandering in the underground labyrinth. And here we are... in this mess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm really glad Robin came.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The success of a vassal is the Lord's achievement. Don't worry about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see from your tone that you've decided to serve me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, of course. I've finally made up my mind to offer you this bow. My bow exists for the demon king Ashtaroth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I appreciate your words more than anything.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Biting the words that leaked out honestly, I put magic power in my right hand. I aimed it at the rampaging second Drake, the second of the two.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The arrow of magic flew straight into the dragon's heart. The drake fell with a roar and silence fell over the place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Next, the sounds of battle in the distance cease.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Having defeated all the two-name drakes, the drakes, having lost their leadership, begin to disperse.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They turn their backs to Toshizo and the others and begin to flee. The three years do not pursue the fleeing dragons, but come toward them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As soon as they saw my face..,

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's my master! You killed two drakes with two names.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They praise me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I explained to them that it was not only my power to kill the drakes but also Robin's support, Toshizo looked at Robin.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm, isn't this the same man the bowman who defeated Dagon with me at Bernese?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seemed that Toshizo remembered Robin.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Robin had not forgotten him either, and they shook hands, and Toshizo made a wicked joke.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're joining the demon king's army, but I'm ahead of you. Besides, my husband and I have talked naked with each other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He may be referring to the hot springs, but when Toshizo says it, it doesn't sound like a joke. And Robin takes offense.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I can't have that kind of relationship with the Demon King because I have a lover, but I want to be a warrior who is known as the sword man Toshizo and the bow man Robin.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Robin said, and they both smiled again.
