Blue flames ignited.

"What's your name?"

"..."

Blue flames ignited.

……

After repeating this countless times, the girl looked at the young woman who still came to see her unyieldingly every time, and a hint of doubt arose in her not-so-bright mind.

Doesn't this person feel pain?

She was well aware of the power of her own flames, and logically this person should not have the strength to get up.

"Can you tell me about yourself?"

Dragging his tired body, the gentle smile on Shiori's face remained unchanged as he asked the blonde girl a question.

"…Rokuko."

Maybe it's because he thinks this person is too annoying, so he might as well tell her what she wants to know and send her away.

The girl named Rokuko found an excuse for herself and answered in an ethereal voice.

"Rokuko, what a nice name. You can call me Shiori."

"..."

Not wanting to respond to Shiori's insignificant nonsense, Rokuko just stared at her silently, as if to say, "If you don't finish your words quickly, I'm going to burn you again." After dozens of "hot" exchanges, Shiori had a rough idea of ​​her character, so he didn't wait for her response, but continued the topic with a smirk.

"Can you tell me why you are so sad?"

"...Friends, all my friends are gone."

As Rokuko spoke, the surrounding scene changed. A beautiful dragon with golden scales and other colorful dragons soared in the sky. The joyful dragon roars reached Shiori's ears. Even she, who did not understand dragon language, could feel the joy of the dragons.

But soon, misfortune struck, and the fantasy world suffered a terrible change. The three forces of mythical beasts, biological creatures, and stories began to run wild, and disaster swept the earth. The proud dragons took the lead in stepping onto the battlefield to surround their home.

Finally, the golden dragon was defeated by the terrifying monsters and lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, her body had turned into a horrible skeleton. What was even more terrifying was that she had lost everything: her home, her beauty, and even her friends. There was no one left in the world anymore. The lonely dragon skeleton could only walk aimlessly on the earth, looking for friends who would never be found, and finally turned into a pitiful beast.

After reading the poem that had appeared in her mind at some point, Shiori looked at Rokuko, as if she could feel Rokuko's thousand years of confusion and helplessness from the poem. Tears streamed down her face, and she slowly walked forward, reaching out her hand to touch Rokuko.

And Rokuko seemed to have a spiritual resonance with Shiori. She revealed her true form, and the no longer beautiful skeleton dragon lowered its head and obediently accepted her touch.

"This is your story, but it's okay now. I will rewrite your pain."】

142: Rewrite the story

【“It’s okay now. I will rewrite your pain.”

As Shiori whispered softly, although Rokuko didn't quite understand what he said, he still felt the other person's kindness.

"rewrite?"

The voice of Rokuko who transformed into a giant dragon seemed to have a low reverberation. Perhaps it was because the way bone dragons speak was completely different from that of humans. She seemed to have difficulty speaking in bone dragon form, like a child who was repeating Shiori's words awkwardly.

"Yes, your story is not over yet, it still has a sequel."

"Ugh?"

Caressing the dragon's cheek as if he were his own child, Shiori closed his eyes and told a new story that had emerged in his mind the moment he learned this story.

"I don't know how long I searched, but the exhausted dragon had to stop and rest..."

The scene of the surrounding world changed because of Shiori's words. The lonely skeleton dragon curled up in the darkness, mumbling about its missing companions.

"Where? Where are you? Am I alone now?"

"There is no such thing~"

A gentle voice sounded in the dragon's ears, pulling the dragon back from the brink of collapse.

"Listen carefully, you should be able to hear it clearly~"

Unconsciously, he followed the sound's prompt and listened to his surroundings. At that moment, the darkness around him was swept away, and a green breeze blew across the dragon's body.

The dragon answered truthfully.

"It's the sound of the wind. The wind is laughing at me."

The trickle of water flowed across the earth, injecting new life into the world, and the originally silent forest began to become lively.

"The water is singing, the land has a familiar smell, and the fire..."

A giant dragon made of flames appeared, and on it, Rokuko felt a long-lost breath. Those were the souls of friends who had soared in the sky with him in the past.

In fact, they never left, but turned into elements of nature to accompany her. However, the sad beast had long been blinded and could no longer notice their weakness.

"The fire is very warm."

Now, with Shiori's help, all her friends have returned to her!

At some point, Rokuko had transformed from a skeleton dragon back into a blonde girl, and showed a beautiful smile to Shiori.

"Thank you, Shiori, for helping me find my friends."

"Ah."

Because Rokuko's human form was shorter, Shiori half-crouched down and stretched out his hand to him again.

"So, can I be your friend too?"

This time, Nanashi did not show any resistance. She smiled and held Shiori's hand. Red light lit up between the two clasped hands. The elemental dragon behind them let out a loud dragon roar, as if celebrating this moment.

Then, the Elemental Dragon and the Ancient Dragon flew into the sky and disappeared on the other side of the spiritual world. Shiori returned to the real world and looked at the hand he had just held with Rokuko.

There, a brand new red fantasy driving book lay quietly. 】

Pink Fairy: Not only did she reconcile with the Ancient Dragon, but she also gained new powers? Miss Shiori is really great. I want to be good friends with her, too.

Maid Knight: Hmm! Miss Shiori is such an amazing person!

Rhodes Island CEO: With the "Ancient Dragon" and the new fantasy driving book, Ms. Shiori should be able to defeat Woodman.

The audience saw hope, and the scene in the video switched to another battlefield in a timely manner.

[The battle lasted for a long time, and Nanashi and Mana were in an absolute disadvantage. Woodman's strength was far beyond their imagination.

"Haha!"

The local tyrant sword Ji Tu, in its ultimate kill state, dropped from the sky with a 40-meter-long giant rock blade. Woodman simply raised his hand casually, and the corresponding rock pillar rose from the ground, pushing back the attack of Seven Sins.

Mana on the side also launched an attack. She transformed into a fantasy form and launched a special move, using a standard knight kick to attack Woodman who was wrestling with the Seven Sins.

But the opponent seemed to have eyes on his back. Woodman inserted the empty cross sword into the ground, and a light green protective shield appeared to block Mana's knight kick.

This is the power called Random Field that Woodman used in the past. When he uses it now, its strength has been greatly improved. It was able to barely withstand Mana's full-strength kick before breaking.

"what?"

Seizing the opportunity when the two swordsmen were surprised, Woodman's cross sword that was inserted into the ground began to be wrapped with golden thunder. After the huge energy was poured into the ground, it erupted from under the feet of the two swordsmen, making the two swordsmen take all the damage.

The two men rolled on the ground for a few times to cancel their transformation. Just as Woodman was about to step forward to deliver the final blow, the blue swordsman rushed out and blocked the attack.

"Tohka!"

Nanashi got up and looked at Tohka with some joy, and the latter responded seriously.

"I want to see Miss Shiori's resolution. She said she would definitely help that girl. If that's the case..."

Tohka gritted her teeth and pushed away Woodman's sword, took off the "Lion King War Chronicle" from her waist and let the Lion King amplifier read it. The two gun barrels on her shoulders received energy replenishment, and the high-pressure water shells flew towards Woodman's chest who was close at hand.

"Before I see the results, I have an obligation to buy her time!"

In the shadows in the distance, Origami silently stared at the direction of the battlefield, and his right hand subconsciously touched the dark sword Yuean at his waist.

"It's useless. The future has already been determined. Shiori will still rely on the runaway Ancient Dragon to defeat Woodman miserably, and will eventually have to seal the book away."

Origami declared coldly, but what she didn't even notice was that she was not the only one observing secretly. Stellius was hiding behind a building, watching the battlefield, and he was actually saying something similar.

"I'm sorry, Woodman. I lied to you. No matter what you do, fate will not let you defeat the Ancient Dragon. But I promise that your farewell will be beautiful and solemn."

The two men focused completely on the battle with completely opposite expressions.

Although Tohka had some advantages at first by using sneak attacks, she was no match for the current Woodman and was soon beaten and her transformation was cancelled, leaving Woodman with only some minor injuries.

"It's not over yet! I swear on the water sword Liu Shui that I will not fall before Miss Shiori arrives!"

"Well said, don't underestimate us, Woodman!"

"Haha, I haven't been beaten so badly in a long time. Is this the pain of being a human? It hurts, but it's the best!"

Patting Tohka's arm as she got up from the ground, Nanashi came up dragging the local tyrant sword Gedo. Naturally, Mana stood up not to be outdone. Even if they had canceled their transformation, they were still indomitable swordsmen and there was no reason to retreat here.

"What a mortal fellow."

After fighting a few more rounds with the three swordsmen, Woodman's last bit of patience was worn out. Seeing the swordsmen getting up again no matter how many times they were knocked down, Woodman felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart, as if some part of his heart was telling him that he was not as good as them.

Just as he was about to kill, a sound of footsteps came from afar. Hearing this strange yet familiar footsteps, Woodman turned around excitedly. It was Shiori walking towards him with a determined look in his eyes. He was the enemy he wanted to defeat.

"I've kept you waiting, everyone! Leave the rest to me!"】

143: Elemental Dragon (two in one)

【“Leave it to me from now on.”

Shiori walked over with firm steps, her eyes seemed to be burning with fire, she held two books tightly in her hands, one was the familiar "Ancient Dragon", and the other was a brand new book that no one had ever seen before.

The moment they saw the book, Origami and Stellius, who were hiding in the dark, showed puzzled expressions. In their cognition, this book did not seem to exist.

"You are finally here, Fire Swordsman! Quick! Transform into an Ancient Dragon! I will definitely defeat you this time!"

Compared to the two secretly surprised Old Sixs, Woodman was in a much better mood. The record of defeating three swordsmen in a row made him regain his confidence. He felt that he was good enough again and it was not a problem to kill the Ancient Dragon alone.

But Shiori did not respond to the other party's request immediately. She looked around at the streets that had been destroyed beyond recognition and showed a heartbroken expression.

"Why do you do such a cruel thing? I heard from Mana that you were originally a human, right?"

"Huh? Human? What the hell are you talking about... Ugh!?"

Woodman, who was proud of his identity as a member of the Megiddo race, wanted to mock Shiori's inexplicable question, but at this moment, his head hurt slightly and a fragment of memory flashed by.
