Chapter 26.1 – Let’s Create a Myth!

「S-someone, helppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!」

「Gaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!! Nik nik uguuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!」

---It was truly a scene from hell. Buildings were burned down, the streets were covered in blood, and humanoid dragons were wandering around the ruined city.

The people of Django were on the verge of annihilation due to the tyranny of the dragon demons who suddenly attacked the city.

The few who survived cower in the rubble and wait patiently for the threat to pass.

「G-god…..Sofia-sama, please help us…….!」

「Damn it! How did this happen………!」

The dragon demons are powerful. They. Have. Muscular. Strength. That. Surpasses. Humans. And. Have. Regenerative. Abilities. As. If. Being. Constantly. Healed. With. Magic. And. Ability. To. Turn. Those. They. Have. Bitten. Into. Their. Own. Kind. There’s nothing that can be done.

……..Normally, in such a situation, the lord with the supernatural power of “magic” would be in charge of resolving everything but---

「---gigyaguhiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Gorosuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! Ryebeebaongouzuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!」

There’s no longer any hope for the people because Snail, the lord of Django, himself turned into a human-faced dragon over a hundred meters in length and was leading the demon dragons….!

「God……..oh, godddd……!」

Ah…..how could this happen? People can only cry and pray to god to have mercy on them.

However---the merciless god showed no sign of descending and the army of demons, numbering in more than tens of thousands, turned the people to demons one after another.

「Gigyaaaaa!!! Human, eat!!!!!!!!!」

「Hiiiii! Somebody, someoneeeeeee!」

Is there no god in this world? Is there no choice but to be turned into a monster?

The people of Django were about to give up in the face of this horrific reality---then

「---enough!」

A dignified voice echoed through the city dominated by despair and lamentations.

Thus, an incident happened. Suddenly, thousands of big trees grew from the earth, blowing away the army of dragon demons---!

「Gugyahiiiiii!!? Idaiiiiiiiiii!!?」

「W-what on earth is this…..what happened…………!?」

Startled by the sudden phenomenon, those who had been hiding looked in the direction of the voice.

There, they wound a man standing….his sharp eyes are burning with anger.

「My name is Rize Beibalon. Army of evil dragons….I’m going to stop your tyranny!」

Rize Beibaon---as soon as he said that, the presence of the dragon demons changed.

They all attacked Rize at the same time while roaring!

However---just as Rize held his hand up and an even larger number of big trees sprouted from the ground, pushing up the tens of thousands of monsters, including Snail---!

「Aggaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?」

「Commit sin no more---I’ll save you now.」

As the people watched in amazement, another miracle happened---!

As the white light emitted from the man, the bodies of the dragon demons, who had been lying on the ground and moaning, gradually turned back into humans……!

Furthermore, the people noticed something. Their own bodies, which had been covered with abrasions from their frantic escape, were fully healed.

Some of them had even been burned all over by the fire breath of the dragon demons but the man, Rize Beibalon, healed them in an instant.

「W-who the hell is that person……!?」

「He brought back the turned dragon demons to humans and even cured the half-dead ones…..!?」

The people are terrified.

It was clearly a power that transcended the realm of magic. To heal the wounds of hundreds of people in an instant and to save those who had been turned into demons, it can only be called a miracle…..!

The fact that such a powerful being came to help shook the hearts of those who had been submerged in despair---!

「Aaahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Rize Beibalon-sama! Please save us!」

「Please help our family and friends who have been turned into monsters!」

The man, Rize Beibalon, nodded vigorously to the people who were desperately crying out for help.

「Fear not---I, another noble, will surely solve this incident caused by the evil wizard Snail! Everyone….I’ll give you happiness and peace!」

Thus, the “myth” started there.

No matter how many demons attack Rize, they will always fail.

A large amount of ivy extended from the ground caught the limbs of the monsters, binding them in an instant.

Then, they were swallowed by the light emitted by Rize and regained their humanity.

「T---thank you very much……! Thank you very much….!」

「If you really want to thank me---don’t waste the life I just saved.」

Neither the claws nor the fangs of the dragon demons could stop Rize’s advance.

With each step he takes, the souls of the demonized were saved, the pain of the wounded faded away, and the scorched earth became meadows and trees.
