91 Lesson 91: The Emperors Awakening and Ore Dragon (1/2)

Signs of Stormdragon moved away from this Dragon Peak.

What's this all about?

It must have headed for the hunt for the others who had broken into the land where they lived.

Running away? No way.

Those are the incarnations of a merciless storm, even before the gods, such as Array's escape.

But it is also true that the signs of noise by the junior dragons do not seem to calm down.

… something is happening.

And there are still no signs of wandering and abomination behind the chest.

Looks like the Red Dragons are on their way, but they can't handle the Black Dragon.

Then even Stormdragon disappeared...

There's more to it... than there is.

Hmm, it's been hundreds of years since the rest of us went out in person.

The problem will be solved soon than the rest, but it annoys the rest of the wings.

It's more or less a consolation to this boredom, intruder.

Easy, don't break me, okay?

◆

”Yeah, you're getting used to fighting dragons all the time.”

After Bahamut disappeared, we resumed our dragon hunt.

While covering everyone with my auxiliary magic, when you run out of health and magic, heal with healing magic and have them return to fight the Dragon again.

Anyway, by fighting dragons in a row, I get a little more experience in fighting dragons.

”If this happens, everyone's bad feelings about dragons will soon disappear.”

Because even though Mr. Liliera and the others already had enough power, they were overly afraid of the dragon.

That's also obvious from the fight in town the other day.

”If you're a top dragon, well, I don't know, but I think you're too alert to anything that frightens you to the extent of a green dragon that's the bottom dragon.”

It's a good thing you don't underestimate them, but the opposite is true when you're more comfortable than you have to.

Actually, it's just a big lizard that flies and throws up braces.

And that's when I realize that a newbie came from behind Dragon Peak.

”This speed... is him!

You got a good guy here just in time.

When I rise above everyone with flying magic, I speak to Liliera and the others with loud magic.

”Everybody, there's a new guy coming!

The moment I told him so, an awesome sound rang out to Dragon Peak.

”Become!? What!?”

You Gyro are alert to the sound of a sudden beep. [M]

”It's the sound of an enemy hitting my defensive junction.”

And just after that, there's the sound of something huge falling to the ground.

”Now what!?”

”Guys, look what fell over there.”

That's what I'm saying. I'm referring to the giant thing that fell to the ground.

”... hey, what are you talking about? It's green and sparkling...”

Ahead I pointed to a giant green object that sparkled in the light of the sun.

”Emerald Dragon.”

”Emerald Dragon? What the hell?

”You've never heard of a dragon.”

Oh, Gyro, don't you guys know the Emerald Dragon?

”It's a dragon made of jewels.”

”Gems!?”

Mr. Megli stares at the emerald dragon with sparkling eyes when he hears it's a gem.

Uh, with that said, gemstone-based dragons are easy to target as ornaments, so I was told that it might be better to use them as protective designated dragons.

Ore-based dragons are so called living mines that they were heavily randomly captured with Mithril Dragons.

If that's the case, the Emerald Dragon will still be banned from hunting as a protected object in this era, so it's no wonder everyone doesn't know about it.

Especially since some protected demons that can harvest valuable materials are rarely intentionally treated as extinctions and kept secret not only the habitat but the information itself.

”It's a dragon covered in rare ore scales, just like the Mithril Dragon.”

”You had a dragon like that...”

And he's not the only one.

As I pointed up and guided everyone's gaze, I saw a red silhouette and a yellow silhouette across the sky.

”That's the same gem dragon as the Emerald Dragon.”

Ruby Dragon and Topaz Dragon from color, I guess?

”That's a jewel, too.”

Mr. Megri stares happily at the two dragons.

It's more of an eye for treasure than an object of fear.

Yeah, well, you were right to allow him to approach you.

Knowing the value of Ore-based dragons will make everyone less afraid of dragons.

”There's still time for them to get here, so let me explain something to you.”

I fell to the ground, Emerald. I descend on the dragon to confirm life and death.

Yeah, I'm dying from a serious injury, so let's stab him in the stomach.

”Dragons made of gems and ore are classified as intermediate to advanced dragons because they can use their own bodies as magic catalysts. I just want you to be aware that the strength changes with the value and purity of the jewels that make up your body.”

”Purity?”

”Yeah, the more pure the ore, the more capable the ore is. So if you're cautioned that you've won easy in the past, now you can fight high-purity orange dragons and fight hard.”

”Oh, okay, brother.”

Gyro snorts with a strange face. [M]

”Ore dragon extermination is good, so sometimes immature adventurers and poachers lose measure of their power and destroy them all.”

Well, it's really immature to haunt people like you're in a hurry for money or overconfident in your power. What is it?

”If you get greedy and get your hands on it, you're gonna get a big burn.”

”Well, I guess it's easier for us not to get our hands on it right now.”

”Ugh, too bad”

That? Why would that happen?
