Episode 008. Dragon Catcher

Kwajik!

The spear, enveloped in a red haze, shattered Gedrik’s evil like a can of millet and lodged deep inside his body.

“Khehehehe!”

Gedrik threw the baron away and frantically scratched the spot where the spear was stuck.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he didn’t have the talent to pull out the spear that had already been stuck all the way.

‘done.’

Aaron looked at the guy’s condition and called for joy inside.

It was the same reaction as when piercing through a sword in a game.

Now all we have to do is get away from him… … .

“… … uh?”

Aaron, who was about to turn around and run away, fell to his knees as if he had been hit in the head with a hammer.

It wasn’t Gedrik’s fault.

Side effects of runic magic. The aftereffects of excessive mental exhaustion came belatedly.

‘Tsk, is this the limit for this body?’

Aaron frowned and looked down at his trembling hands.

In fact, his mental strength was at its lowest when he was crushed by a building.

It was because he used rune magic for a long time while breaking through several tons of rubble.

In the midst of that, it was only natural that the aftereffects would come as he used the rune again to break the wrath.

“Crukreuk… … Kreuk… … . aaa!”

Gedrik, who had been scratching at the place where the spear had been stuck, gave up pulling out the spear and let out a long roar.

‘It’s like this in the end.’

Aaron bit his lip at the roar he heard overhead.

Gedrik, who was mortally wounded by the reverse, breathed his breath at the nearest enemy before dying spontaneously.

And right now, the closest thing to him was none other than Aaron.

shhhhh-

Mana began to gather in Gedrik’s throat again.

‘I wanted to avoid it if possible.’

Aaron calmly glared at the green ball of fire that had begun to gather in his mouth.

He knew this would be the worst case scenario.

The reason I acted despite knowing that was because I had a corner to believe in.

“young master! Avoid! Keugh!”

Gardi yelled as Aaron sat there, staring at Gedrik.

I want to run right away and save Aaron, but the shock I received earlier broke my breastbone and I couldn’t move easily.

“Sir Gardy! Back off! You will be swept up to the kyung!”

Aaron shouted at Gardi, who struggled to stand up.

Wow!

At the same time, a green fireball full of resentment fell on Aaron’s head.

* * *

“It’s hot.”

Aaron murmured as he looked around at the green flames that filled his surroundings.

As expected, the breath didn’t do him any damage.

The rubble of buildings scattered on the floor quickly turned to ashes, and the ground that couldn’t stand the heat boiled up, but the place where Aaron was standing was as clean as if nothing had happened.

“Am I just getting out of my body?”

Aaron put his hand to the pouring fire.

Then, as if a transparent film formed around the arm, the flames were blocked and cracked.

Of course, I didn’t feel anything in my arm.

“Oh hot!”

Aaron, who was trying to move his steps, hurriedly returned to his place due to the hot pain in the soles of his feet.

Magic haters could block the breath, but they couldn’t block the ground heated by it.

It was the moment when it was revealed that this ability was not completely invincible.

“You’d better hide it for now.”

Aaron decided to hide this ability as much as possible.

If someone noticed the weakness in the ability and used an indirect attack using a feature, it could be dangerous.

[Your level has risen. 2 → 7]

As Gedrik’s breath began to subside, white letters appeared in front of his eyes, and hot energy spread from his heart.

Same feeling as when you killed the Overseer before.

But this time the feeling was much stronger.

Not only did the headache that seemed like his head was about to break disappear, but his limbs, which were no different from skeletons, became thicker as flesh and muscles attached.

It seemed that the stats increased along with the level implemented in this way.

‘I caught a 51 year old, but this is the only thing that goes up. How high is your potential?’

In Verfect, there is a gimmick that makes leveling up more difficult as the character’s potential is higher.

This potential is applied randomly each time a character is created, and the more difficult it is to level up, the greater the benefit you get when you level up.

I caught a whopping 51, but seeing that only 5 went up, it seemed that the potential of this body was formidable.

[You have learned a new skill, Peer.]

“… … what?”

Aaron, who was looking around his body, hesitated at the type that followed.

The type that stayed in front of his eyes for a while suddenly turned white and soaked into his forehead.

It was an unkind notice with no additional explanation, but it didn’t matter. Because it’s a skill you already know.

Fear is the vision of a Balaur race that instills fear in enemies by radiating fighting spirit.

In the game, you could get it with a low probability when defeating a high-level named dragon, but I never dreamed that it would be possible here.

I was worried about how long I would get a legacy and live in this harsh world, but I can’t believe this is even possible.

It seemed that there was no law to die.

“young master! young master! damn it!”

Through the dying flames and acrid smoke, Gardi’s cry was heard.

Perhaps he thought that Aaron had been consumed by the flames and reduced to ashes.

“Then let’s try some acting.”

Aaron quickly lay down on the floor as the ash and smoke obscured his peripheral vision.

* * *

“Keew… … .”

Breath immediately after baptism.

Gedrik, who had finished his final struggle, staggered for a moment before collapsing with blood pouring from his mouth.

“Hey, I won!”

“A dragon! The Balaur have fallen!”

“The Baron defeated the Balaur!”

“Wow!”

“Long live the blue fox!”

“Long live the red wolf!”

Residents who were standing at a distance watching the fight cheered when they saw the fallen Gedrik.

They thought that the Baron and the Gardi had killed Gedrik.

The knight commander who stood up and threw a spear despite being kicked by a dragon.

And Baron Oddhaken, who was freed from his grasp and dealt the final blow.

I couldn’t see the vivid scene because of the dust that had risen, but I could infer the extent.

“young master! young master! damn it!”

After Gedrik fell, Gardi ran to where the breath had landed, clutching his throbbing chest.

“Broken… … ?”

Gardi, who had been calling Aaron with a glimmer of hope, hesitated.

I saw a person lying in the smoke full of sulfur.

‘no way.’

Gardi slowly approached it, forgetting the pain in his chest.

“this… … . how is this… … oh my god.”

Gardi, who confirmed the identity of the person, was speechless with his eyes wide open.

The center of where the breath landed.

There, the Aaron he was looking for was lying quietly, unscathed.

* * *

After a short and intense fight, the baron sent someone to the lord’s castle to transport Gedrik’s body.

It was a day or two from Mineville to Yeongju Castle, so people would arrive in about three days.

“Then rest in peace, Baron.”

The largest village headman’s house in the village.

The women who took care of Aaron’s party bowed their heads and left the room.

When all the inns in the village collapsed due to Gedrik’s rampage, the village chief gave up his entire house.

The village chief himself ended up living in a shabby place that was no different from a warehouse, but compared to what he would receive in the future, that was nothing.

The baron promised to distribute some of the by-products from the dragons he defeated to the village.

A Balaur like this would have the budget to turn the entire village into a stone building, even if he had to cut off just one leg, so he could afford to live in a warehouse for a few days.

“Knight Commander. Report it.”

The baron said as the caregivers were afraid to leave.

He had no memory of the last moment, as he passed out in a panic after Gedrik’s piercing.

Even after waking up not too long ago, I had no time to listen to the battle report because I was giving orders to people.

“yes. After the boy threw a spear and hit him… … .”

From noble mtl dot com

Gardi detailed what had happened since the baron passed out.

Drake, who was screaming and staggering, fired a breath straight at Aaron.

After that, Drake collapsed and died, and Aaron, who thought he was killed by the breath, walked out on his own feet.

“… … Is what the knight commander said true?”

The baron, who had been looking at Gardi with his mouth slightly open, turned his gaze to Aaron.

Aaron nodded.

“yes. It is true.”

“Is it true? Is it true that you killed Drake in one blow and survived his breath? Do you mean believe it now?”

The baron frowned slightly.

I knew very well that a knight commander who values honor and trust couldn’t lie like this, but I couldn’t believe it because it was so absurd.

Killing a 200-year-old Drake with a single ordinary spear, and enduring the dragon’s breath, which even those who have reached the master’s level avoid, with their bare bodies.

This was something that could only happen in a heroic epic written a thousand years ago.

“just… … It seemed like that would do it.”

Aaron said calmly.

“While watching the battle between my father and Sir Gardy, I saw the scales on his side. I was so scared I wanted to run away, but when I saw my father and Lord Gardi in danger, my body moved first.”

“hmm.”

The baron calmly listened to Aaron’s words.

He knew that he threw a spear in search of the evil of the Balaur because he had seen it himself.

“Then what about the breath story?”

Finding and attacking the evil that even the Baron and Gardi couldn’t find deserved a hundred praises.

However, it was a somewhat absurd story that he even endured the breath that he emitted later.

“that… … I’m not sure either. I remember when Drake looked at me and opened his mouth, but I can’t remember after that. Perhaps the Lord was not in a hurry and misunderstood.”

Aaron thought it over and shook his head.

He came to his senses long after the battle was over.

Even if it was true that he had endured the breath, he couldn’t remember it.

‘Well, this is a little over the line.’

However, contrary to what he said, Aaron remembered the situation clearly.

The magic abhorrence ability grants immunity to ‘all types of magic’.

Breath also falls into that category, so it’s only natural that it can’t deal damage.

The reason I was evasive like this was because I thought it was not the time to talk about this ability yet.

Wherever you go, angular stones are bound to be met.

It was better to hide the main ability until it had a proper foundation.

“her… … . That’s right… … .”

The baron sighed with his mouth slightly open.

If a mediocre person had said this, I would have thought it would be a bluff, but if it was a lie, it was reported by the trembling knight commander, so I couldn’t just ignore it.

“young master. Were there any strange things that happened to you when you were little?”

Aaron blurted out that he didn’t know, but Gardi seemed unwilling to give up.

He clearly saw the green fireball raining down on Aaron’s head.

He was the one who had brought Aaron out of the ashes and boiling earth, and he couldn’t be mistaken for this.

‘My eyes are completely turned upside down.’

Aaron muttered to himself when he saw Gardi’s determined expression looking at him.

This large man seemed intent on proving what he had seen with his own eyes.

‘It’s better.’

Aaron’s head rolled quickly.

If you can capture the hearts of the two here, you won’t have to worry about the foundation.

Coincidentally, the leader of the knights gave him luck, so matching the rhythm with him was one of the good options.

“actually… … It only happened once.”

After finishing the calculation, Aaron slowly opened his mouth.

Only I am immune to magic
