Chapter 167: Chapter 167. Saving Town
"Hoo, mission over, who'd have thought it would be that simple, it didn't take us an hour to finish this," Myne said after coming out of the portal and erasing it immediately afterwards.
"Wafuu, that's because I was with you," Waffle who was resting on Myne's head said while laughing, clearly he already started learning from Myne.
"Myne, it seems like this kid's parents are already here," Waffle suddenly raised his head and looked at Adol Town with a serious face.
"What! Why are they here so fast? This is very coincidental," Myne asked dumfounded while feeling that the timing of the dragon child's parents coming was quite doubtful, Just as he rescued their child, they immediately came to Adol Town to make havoc, this didn't look like a coincidence.
While holding a lot of doubt in his heart, Myne looked at the sky of Adol Town and saw a giant black colour dragon flying dominatingly there while looking at the people in the town as if they were a group of ants who dared to rob its child, which was indeed the case, as compared to a dragon, Hume is really ants in front of them, from both strength and size.
As the dragon was already angry as hell, and lost its reasoning because of valid reason, it didn't stay at its place for too long and took a deep breath, It then opened its giant mouth and let out an extremely powerful roar.
Roarrrrrr...
The roar of a dragon was indeed no joke, Myne who stood at least one kilometre away from the battlefield felt his ear hurt, let's not talk about the people who were directly below the dragon. Most of the weak people directly lose their will to resist or escape just as they hear the loud roar, they all fall down on the ground in fear while hoping that a miracle happens and they can save their lives.
After declaring its grand arrival to the entire town, the dragon found a big building and landed on it. Then it again opened its mouth but this time, it directly used the dragon race trade mark ability, The Dragon Bearth.
The extremely hot orange flame mixed with a little red color which can melt even the hardest iron shoots out of the black dragon's mouth toward the nearest building.
The dragon fire immediately blasted apart the building but its momentum didn't reduce at all, and continued heard toward the ground where many small stall owners who were hiding behind their stalls opened their eyes wide with fear seeing magma-like fire coming toward them but before they could even think of running, the dragon fire hit them and burn them to the ground.
Seeing such a horrible sense there was a moment of silence before mobs started screaming in horror while running like headless chickens in all directions.
Roar...
The black dragon after the first attack, didn't stop and continued to destroy building after building, most of the people didn't die from his dragon breath but were buried under the debris of the destroyed building.
As for the town guards? They are nowhere seen, maybe they are the first ones who react and run away after seeing the giant dragon on their head.
Sigh what a great view, I wonder how many people have lost their lives by now, Myne thought while coming out of the portal on the Adol Town's wall and staring at the black dragon in front of him.
As for the reason why he came here, this, of course, has nothing to do with saving people or becoming a hero, he just wanted to fish in trouble water, and steal the black dragon skills, after all it's not every day you encounter a dragon, how can Myne miss such a great opportunity?
[ Name: Black Dragon
LV: 130
Race: Dragon
Gender: Male
Age: 219 y/o
[Skills]
Terror Bite
Abominable Roar
[Ability]
Flame Bullet
Flight
F*cking hell, so powerful, and 210 years old? Just how long do those big lizards live? By the way, it is quite weird such a powerful creature but only has 2 skills?
This is a little surprising, I thought since the dragon is known as one of the most powerful races they should have many kinds of outstanding never-before-seen skills and abilities, but they are quite disappointing, even that catfish have more useful and rare skills than them, and also why it feels like something is missing, Myne thought with a frown.
[ Terror Bite:
Make user teeth sharper than iron cause large damage to the attacked opponent, and cause panic status at a fixed probability. ]
[ Abominable Roar:
Forcefully cancels all enhancements on the target with a unique sound wave produced during the activation of skills.
Cooldown Time: 1 Minute. ]
Well, this Abominable Roar is a little useful, but still doesn't match my style, just thinking about fighting with an opponent and suddenly I started screaming out of my lungs made me feel embarrassed, better stay away from such high-profile skills, Myne thought with a sigh, and after thinking of a second Myne steal all black dragon skills and ability and paste them on Waffle.
Just as Myne cuts the Flight ability of the black dragon, he suddenly loses the support of magic energy and directly falls to the ground, killing some unlucky people who were running below him.
After all most giant monsters such as dragons use their innate magic ability to fly in the sky, otherwise with their thousands of tons of body weight how can they fly with only the support of their fragile wings?
Oops, no one saw me right? I didn't want to be blamed for their death later, Myne thought jokingly, anyway those people were about to die, so of course he was not going to feel guilty for them that they died some second sooner because of him.
"I've become stronger? Myne what's going on?" Waffle who was resting on Myne's head suddenly sensed change in his body and asked panickly after all unlike Hume, Divine Beasts have absolute control over their body and they can sense every small change in their body, let alone when they start flying of no reason.
Yes, just after Myne transferred black dragon skills and abilities, Waffle subconsciously felt them and curiously tried to activate them and started levitating slowly on top of Myne like a balloon.
"Don't panic, do you remember my skills? I can transfer others' skills and abilities to anyone I want, and because you are being a very obedient boy, so as a reward I decide to give you that bad dragon skills and abilities, and one of his abilities was Flight, so from now on you can also fly like a bird, you just need some practice," Myne said with a smile.
"Wow, so cool, I can fly, hehe, now Uncle Jor won't be able to show off in front of me, I will..."
While Waffle mumbled continuously in excitement, Myne who wanted to explain other skills use decided to ignore him for the time being because the angry black dragon who lost his skills and abilities now staring in his direction with a life-threatening gaze.
He won't find out that it was me who stole his skills and abilities, right? But if that is the case why did it stare at me with such hatred-filled eyes?
Myne thought confusedly but suddenly from the corner of his right eye, he saw Waffle happily casing the child dragon unsteadily trying to get used to his flying ability, while flying on the top of his head, which was very eye-catching, at least in the current situation when the entire town is the state of getting destroyed.
Those two idiots, can't they play later? Now the black dragon saw them, he probably thought that Waffle was casing his child who ran away from his ( Myne ) prison and now trying to capture him again.
Roarrrr...
Bang.
The black dragon after seeing his child, like an uncontrolled bull, runs towards Myne with his all might while jumping on building after building and trampling people underfoot whenever he sets foot on the ground.
"Although no one was going to give me anything for my great heroic work, nor people would even say thank you to me, but still, today, I Myne would save this town," Myne said with a smile while opening his arms widely toward the rushing dragon as if he is inviting him to come to smash him into pieces, but sadly no one saw Myne such a cool act, everyone was still just trying to run as far away from the dragon as possible.
Although seeing Myne's weird behaviour which was completely different from others, the black dragon's speed slowed down a little and a hesitated expression appeared on his face, but this change only lasted for a second before he again increased his speed and just when he was 10 meters away from Myne, suddenly out of nowhere a 20 meters big vortex appear in front him.
Because the black dragon's charging speed was quite fast, it didn't even have time to react before he smashed into the vortex and disappeared wherever place Myne wanted to send him.
Sigh, I save a town just like that, and some people still complain that I am very shameless. Where can you find a good-hearted person like me who does good deeds from the shadow without care about fame and fortune? If things go like this maybe I will become a saint one day, Myne thought while staring at the floating clouds in the sky like an old man.
"Anyway, let's go little guy, let's meet your father," Myne said and opened a portal in front of him which was connected to the forest a dozen or so kilometres away from Adol Town while gesturing to Waffle and the dragon child to follow him.
...
"Where is the dragon?"
Just as Myne left, fifty or so knights wearing silver armour, riding war hours, led by a 2-meter tall knight in red armour, asked a random passerby who was hiding behind a tree.
"Ahh, Lord Marcus, thank god you came," The man hurriedly comes out from behind the tree and starts flirting with the man in red armour.
"Stop your nonsense and tell me where the hell that dragon suddenly go?"
Although that man even in such a critical situation tried to bootlick, but the man in red armour clearly wasn't in a good mood, so he hurriedly urged that man to speak.
"Sorry, my lord but I don't know, just a moment ago the dragon was making a catastrophe when for some reason it fell from the sky, then it started running toward the town walls angrily, but just when I thought it would hit the wall suddenly a small light shone in front of it and it disappears in that light."
"Disappear in the light? Are you kidding me? How can such a big dragon disappear? Listen you better tell the truth otherwise..."
"I am telling the truth, my lord, how can I have the courage to lie to you?"
"Well, Uluna, Yarru, Onl, go find out what's going on here, and where the hell did that dragon go?"
The man in red armour orders his three most trusted soldiers with a frown.
"Yes, my lord..."
The three soldiers reply loudly in union and head in a different direction to find out the situation, but they soon come back with a confused faces.
"What happened?" The man in red armour asked.
"My Lord, we asked my nearby people and all of them said the same thing this man told us, that dragon indeed disappears in a blue light," The soldier named Onl said respectfully.
"How can this be possible? If that dragon really disappeared out of thin air, then it can only mean one thing that someone has helped us secretly," The man in red armour mumbled but seeing that his soldiers staring at him waiting for further instructions, he coughed light before continuing, "Listen you all, since the dragon is already left, then go and help injured people."
"Yes, my lord," All soldiers said in union before they all spread in different directions to rescue people.
A mysterious existence that makes a dragon disappear, who could it be? The man in red armour thought while staring at the town wall.
