160 CHAPTER VIII -- IN WAY OF WINNING GRANT (1/2)

I don't know if I'll make it out alive: ......

Now, in the Mountains of Death, in a cave ...... in the middle of a nest of red dragons .

Surrounded by dragons, neither of us could speak or take a step in the silent tension, I was holding a grudge against the Demon King.

A few minutes ago.

What?　How to win over the grantor?

After hearing about the history of the reincarnates, I cried out to the Demon King to teach him about the Grantor.

Because after hearing so much about the greatness of the reincarnated people, then I'm going to play hard to win with them!　It's not going to happen.

”You know about the grantor, don't you?　Tell me anything you want!

What?　Wouldn't it be boring to know that?

Boring?　What is he talking about?

'I'm not trying to have fun!　There's nothing better than an easy win, right?　I'm not like the Demon King, and if I lose, I die, right?

I grabbed the Demon King by the shoulders and desperately tried to appeal to his common sense .

''Oh, ah, ...... that's right. I don't want you to die and I'm going to give you some advice.

The demon king seemed to be pushed by my swordsmanship and felt compelled to give me advice.

But this was a mistake.

Yes~!

Just hunt down as many dragons as you can. We'll talk later.

What?

Don't worry. I'll take him down a little and then I'll bring him back.

The moment I heard those voices, I was in the dragon's nest.

The dragons were surprised at my sudden appearance, but there were dozens of them hurrying around me, ready to surround me.

And there was silence in the air, looking at each other.

Maybe if I moved a few millimeters, they would come at me en masse.

I could feel the tension in the air.

I guess the dragons thought I was just some daredevil who had wormed his way into the middle of their lair, with no sign of them.

Wary is a sign of high intelligence, but ...... I can only be an idiot to be so wary.

Because in this situation, I have no way to do any damage to you guys.

It's impossible to fight on the ground with scaled red dragons that completely nullify your attacks and you can't see their weaknesses.

d*mn ...... demon king, I hate you .

I asked you how to beat the grantor. .......

Hmm?　No, from the Demon King's point of view, if you want to win against the grantor, you should at least take out a bunch of dragons with room to spare?

It is true that Lou was able to come over the Mountains of Death, and from the point of view of the reincarnated people, a bunch of dragons should be easy to defeat.

It's a good thing ...... this is a message from the demon king that you should use your own strength before asking for help from others.

I'm going to defeat the dragon horde by myself!

I've tried to be enthusiastic with ......, but how do I get through this situation where I can't even move a step?

If it were possible, I'd like to see the dragons flying high, but that's hard to do in this cave.

Then we'll have to figure out a way to attack the dragons from below, even inside the cave.

From beneath the dragons: ......

Oh, okay. ......

The moment I found a solution and was unintentionally happy to hear it out loud, the dragons began their concentrated attack.

''Yah, I did it. ...... Well, I was already planning to move anyway, so it's okay.''

I shifted to the head of the dragon, which was a bit further away, and successfully avoided a concentrated attack.

Clank!　Clank!

Yeah, I knew it wouldn't go through the blade.

While the dragons were looking for me, I thrust my sword into the dragon's head and once again made sure the scales were an absolute defense .

And ......

It's magic in this situation!

The moment the dragon was struck on the head and was about to bend its neck to turn around, I sprouted a rock spike from the ground to penetrate the dragon's neck .

”Okay, we made it. That'll work.

I saw that the rock spikes were poking out of the dragons' necks, and I continued to grow more rock spikes as I ran around on top of them.

The dragons are confused and their numbers are steadily decreasing. If you keep this up, you'll be able to get rid of them. ......

Just as I was about to say that it's a piece of cake, he said to me from behind, ”Boom! I heard something snap.

When I turned around, I saw that a dragon, larger and more scarred than the other dragons, had broken a rock spike with its paw.

It looks like a pack boss: ......

Yeah, let's just leave her alone and take care of the normal dragons around her.

I've decided to ignore the boss.

If I had to fight the boss, he'd be in my way.

But life isn't always that easy: ......

Whoa!

As I ignored the boss and continued to hunt dragons, the boss flew at me .

I managed to avoid it, but if I had reacted even a little later, the boss's head butt would have shattered every bone in my body. .......

I shuddered as I looked at the wall of the cave where the boss had headbutted me and made a hole in it, thinking about what would happen if it hit me.
