Chapter 285: Dracoon – 2
#1
“The magic defense facilities are about to collapse,” L spoke in mixed tones.
The round curtain that covered the fortress in its entirety flashed intermittently in the air and disappeared. Below the fort was a swarm of Dark Earth monsters that were already impossible to count. There were super-sized monsters that appear to be Tier-10 to Tier-11, making Tier-6 and Tier-7 ones look so small.
It was definitely a different scene from the Earth. If the Earth were to use high-tech weapons at every their gate through numerous hunters, the Dracoons were using the walls to defend themselves, just as those of in the Middle Ages. There were huge bumps on the walls that run down the middle of the mountain. Dozens of bumps were listed on the third floor down to the second floor, where purple-skinned Dracoons were throwing magic spells and arrows. The fortress wall, which was carved from the interior of the rocky mountain, looks about two kilometers wide. Literally, it was a fortress where a thousand men could defeat a ten-thousand troop.
“Sh-te-na-da!”
A waterfall of fireworks…
“Ma-Ta-Shh-Ha-Ak-S!”
The spear of ice flew away…
Swoosh! Swoosh!
It was those who shot the bows that were spectacular. As thousands of Dracoons fired red and blue arrows, the colorful trajectory of light went to the monsters and exploded.
BAAAAM!!!
Blazing flames and ice eruptions ripped the Dark Earth monsters mercilessly. It wasn’t just that.
Beep!
Tens of Wyverns, on which the Dracoons rode, were thrown down in unison and dropped rain of boulders over the monsters’ heads. At the top of the mountain, high-leveled archers and wizards were throwing away huge flakes of fire. Each time, the Tier-7 or 8 monsters fell to the ground and the other monsters trampled on them to death. But the problem was that there were so many monsters around them.
If there seemed to be a vacancy for a while, it was soon filled with more.
Boom!!! Booooom!!
These days, there were monsters who were ignorant of the walls and hundreds of them who were hitting and climbing the walls. They range from those who shoot the breath, which appeared to be super-strong, to those who shoot out flames and launch far-ranged attacks. Fortunately, the Dracoon’s fortress itself was in a very high place to deal with these monsters. If they had dealt with them on the ground, the Dracoons would never have been able to hold out.
But then, after a moment, the leader standing in the midst of the monsters also began to move. His size was approximately 200 meters and was not larger than the others. With an obese body, he looked like a bear-like figure covered with scales. The difference from he had from the other monsters was that his whole body was covered with horns, his chest and shoulders were overblown and his head looked like an alligator’s. After a while, its neck began to swell and the Dracoons went wild.
“Here it comes again!”
“For the glory of Al!”
“Stop it with all your life!”
Jaehwang could clearly hear their desperate cries in the air.
“Argh!”
A white column came out of its mouth and shot out into the walls of the fort.
“The barrier!”
The fortress was blocked by a much stronger round membrane than before. They must have kept that for this situation. A power struggle between the two great energies had begun.
Zaaaap!!! Zap!!! ZING!!!
“Ugh! It’s piercing!”
“Stay!”
It held on for a while. The round curtain was broken, and the white column of light shot straight at the fortress.
Zing!!!
It tore through the walls of the fort. The white column of light did not end short. Every time it swept and left a deep scar on the fortress wall, huge rocks fell and countless Dracoons died without even leaving a trace. It was then, its eyes, which were firing white columns of light, turned to the sky. It was too fast of a transition for its size. Its eyes met with Jaehwang’, who was flying in the air and at the same time, the monster’s head was bent towards the sky.
Beep!!!!
The rays of light that shot up, tearing the fortress diagonally, were fired at L in an instant.
“Huh!!!!!”
In the sudden attack, L twisted herself to escape the beam. The light tore up the space a few more times to get L, but L was quite fast. She avoided it with all sorts of ridiculous aerial maneuvers, as she did on Earth.
But that was not the end of her opponent’s attack. Suddenly, a white spark began to rise from his horns, and a white beam was fired at her.
“Kyyyaaaak!!” The beam devoured L’s body and in it, L twisted in pain.
The white light, which contained a powerful blitzkrieg energy, made L’s body stiff and slowly suffer. But feeling the danger, Jaehwang had already jumped from L. Goongi had already turned into a hawk and was covering Jaehwang’s shoulders. He moved as if he was on the ground because he was intertwined with Goongi. Falling down toward the ground at a rapid pace, Jaehwang pulled the Arrow out of the Infinity Storage.
“Interesting.” The corners of Jaehwang’s mouth curled up. His attack was not just a blitz attack. There was a surprisingly divine power in it, and any opponent who was struck with it was not only disturbed but absorbed by it. The operation was so exquisite that anyone would want to learn it. Of course, that’s just a thought, and now…
“Let’s fight.”
He’s pretty strong.
A feeling of triumph in him arose, all he had to do was to obtain his divinity somehow.
He hated playing the role of an ancient warrior. It would be easier to acquire his divinity by saving this fortress.
Zap….Zap…
A red gale rose from Jaehwang’s body.

“Al has come!”
“Oh, Al!”
The Dracoons raised their hands. God himself had appeared to save them. But when Al was shaken by the rays of the leader of the monsters, there was despair in their eyes. They have been waiting desperately for him. The monster’s rays, which seemed to be the leader’s, were too powerful.
All the magicians who had come down from the ancient times and protected them broke down in that monster leader’s rays, but they had hope.
Because the God that they believed in was not weak. They believed that the reason why God was not showing up now was that they could endure it. It was not that they never fought against the monsters of the earth. They’ve been doing well and they thought they’ll continue to do so.
But what appeared now was completely different from what they used to face.
It’s time for everyone to be frustrated like that.
“This is impossible!” Leah, the queen of the Dracoon tribe, shook her head nervously. They couldn’t give up. They could no longer retreat now that there was an entire group of Dracoon people inside their fortress. If they gave up, they will all be killed by those monsters.
“I’ll try the Hetarus myself!”
“No, my Queen!”
“If you fall, things will only get worse!”
Her cry was strongly dissuaded by those around her. The Hetarus was an attack where they would pour all of their mana to fire a single but powerful magic arrow. However, as strong as it was, its side effects were also very large that the fighters who tried the Hetarus could not even stand up for a while after using it due to excessive overload of energy.
“I am the strongest! It’s just me now! Get ready for the Hetarus, everyone!” She cried out. She uses the biggest bow of the Dracoons! She was the strongest warrior and wizard of their race who could fire the most powerful arrow.
She stood tall at the highest point.
The longest horn was rising on her forehead, the royal family whose blood was said to be the thickest among the Dracoons and who were said to have dragon blood, began to glow blue. The warriors around her gathered. As they reached for her, the blue manna from their hands began to gather towards her. Leah, the queen of the Dracoons, slowly took a deep breath and raised her bow. Carefully, she took an arrow out of the quiver and inserted it into the bow. Her body soon trembled.
“Awk…”
Accepting another’s mana was accompanied by pain. No matter how powerful she was, it was the same. It’s time for her to hold back her groan and slowly pull the bow.
“Up there!”
A warrior glared his eyes as he pointed his finger at the air. Leah’s eyes also grew as she followed him. A figure was falling from the air to the bottom of the painful L. No, it’s not falling off. Behind his back was a red wing, and in his hands, there was a bright red flash.

Jaehwang aimed at the monster who was shooting at him with a white light. A puff of red force formed on The Arrow and soon began to spin slowly.
The Arrow of the Divine Punishment.
Pow!! POW!! BAAAAM!!!
From Jaehwang, the red line was shot out. It was faster than light. Condensed into a piece, the light contained destructive power. A moment later, the monster’s white ray and Jaehwang’s red light collided.
Kaaat!
The red light that hit the white beam continued its way towards the monster. It seems as if it’s alive and wriggling as it avoided the white ray. It was not long before the monster’s head collided with the arrow.
BOOM!
With a loud noise, the monster’s head was pushed back. At the same time, the spark in the horn of the monster spread around it.
“Hm.”
The back of its head was coming back. It was not without damage, blood was pouring down from one of his eyes.
But that was the end.
From his one remaining eye, the wild, untidy wild anger erupted.
“That’s amazing.” One corner of Jaehwang’s mouth curled up. The monster dispersed and attacked everything around it.
‘It’s like a spider’s web.’
‘That’s right.’
Its divinity, seen through the eyes of Goongi, came from drawing and using that of the surrounding ones’ as if they were his own. Not only his attacks but also his damage was dispersed. Jaehwang’s attack a little while ago was just enough to kill him. It was Jaehwang’s way of fighting out his opponent with neither excessive nor insufficient force.
“Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrak!”
The monster bursts into creepy laughter. It’s as if it was laughing at Jaehwang. He was mocking Jaehwang as if he could not take him down.
“This is getting interesting.” Jaehwang grinned, it dared to provoke him.
