Man is infinite, and his ambition is to slay the dragon

She could find no trace of the dragon hunter.

According to the descriptions of dragon hunters near the village and the nearest city, the legendary dragon hunter has been staying nearby for at least the past three months. This is because there are often inexplicable fires in the wild, and when the dragon hunters arrived later, they only found a pile of dragon corpses.

This fits the characteristics of the rumored dragon hunter.

But what is more special is that the dragon hunter would not stay in one place for more than two months before, but this time he has not left for three months - is it because he encountered some special situation?

"Your Highness, we are back."

While Laksha was thinking, two soldiers came back from not far away.

"Thank you for your hard work, how is it going?"

"No, Princess. The dragon hunter is nowhere to be found."

The soldier shook his head. "There aren't many people around here. It's the border after all. The only thing worth noting is the incident that happened more than a month ago. It was said that a meteor fell into a mountain not far away, but the dragon hunters over there went to check it out. There was nothing but a big pit."

"Could it be that the legendary dragon hunter has left?"

The younger soldier said with a smile.

"We have been out for three or four days now. I feel like the captain will severely criticize us when we return this time."

"Don't worry about that!" Laksha patted his penniless chest, "When the time comes, you can just push all the responsibilities onto me, since I was the one who brought you out anyway. But where is the place where the meteor fell that you just mentioned?"

“It’s right over there.”

The soldier, who looked very mature, pointed to a hill not far away and said, "Also, Your Highness, there is something I have always wanted to ask you."

"Huh? What?"

"Can we change parking spots? Is it really necessary to park the car among the corpses?"

Hearing what the experienced soldier said, the young soldier nodded in agreement, and Laksha glanced around - if Sieg was here, he would definitely be able to recognize them, because all around the three people were the lower-level dragons that he had killed alone a month ago and had not had time to eat.

Laksha smiled and said, "What's the matter? This is one of the few traces left by the legendary dragon hunter! He defeated more than a dozen lower-level dragons by himself. He is really good. Maybe he can even defeat a middle-level dragon easily, right?"

"I really want to see him more and more."

Among the royal family of this country, Laksha knew that she was somewhat different. Unlike her brothers who had begun fighting for the throne at a young age, she was full of interest in the world outside the palace. Although she could not leave the palace, Laksha heard a lot about the outside world from the servants and the soldiers and dragon hunters who entered and left the palace.

Therefore, she was very interested in the outside world and in the rumors that she heard first.

[The legendary dragon hunter who wanders the border and constantly exterminates dragons] - This was the first rumor Laksha had heard, and now that the opportunity to meet him was at hand, Laksha's heart was filled with strong expectations.

Looking at the appearance of their own princess, the two soldiers smiled bitterly with some helplessness.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the ground shook violently.

The two soldiers immediately raised their weapons, and Laksha quickly took out a slender silver sword from the carriage - the three of them were very familiar with this kind of vibration, because when it comes to the ground shaking in the wild, it is most likely that a group of dragons are approaching.

This is common sense in this world.

then--

"Boom--!"

Accompanied by an even heavier vibration, a black shadow immediately appeared in the sight of the three people!

The experienced soldier curled his lips and said, "Tsk, it really is a dragon. Fortunately, there is only one. Princess, please leave it to me—"

laugh--!

Before the soldier could finish his words, his entire head flew out, and blood spurted out from the broken neck like a fountain. The splattered blood immediately dyed the upper body of the young soldier who was closest to him red, and Laksha, who was behind him, was also covered in blood.

"......ha?"

The young soldier couldn't help but utter a sound of disbelief.

Although he was a newcomer who had just joined the palace guard, this veteran was not. He used to be a dragon hunter and was specially recruited into the guard because of his many achievements. His level was quite high.

Now his head fell off in an instant?

"male--"

Princess, run away!

Before he could even utter a word, the young soldier followed in the footsteps of the experienced soldier, and their bodies were torn into pieces in the sudden strong wind.

The bursting blood immediately soaked Laksha into a bloody man.

At this moment, the dark shadow came in front of her with heavy steps.

It was a dragon, but it was not a lower-level dragon. Its body was several times larger than that of a lower-level dragon. I wondered which one was bigger, a middle-level dragon or the other. Behind it... or on its back, there was a tree that was completely integrated with its body. Several blood-stained branches stretched out from the treetops, like the front end of a dragon's head baring its fangs and claws.

"..."

Laksha sat in the car in a daze, his eyes full of dullness and fear.

She couldn't understand what was happening, because it all happened so fast, and she couldn't comprehend what was happening in front of her - why did the two soldiers she brought with her die? What did the dragon in front of her do? And...

"boom!"

Why was she kicked away?

My stomach hurts, my chest hurts, and my back hurts from hitting a rock when I fell on it... No, who kicked her away? Why did they kick her away?

"......Eh?"

Almost at the moment this question arose, Laksha got the answer.

Because in front of her, where she had originally stood, there was a man holding the swooping wooden dragon's head with a silver sword.

I was saved by her.

Laksha understood this quickly. If she hadn't been kicked away just now, she would have died instantly like the two soldiers. The person who saved her was the red-haired man who was now resisting the attack.

(Who is he? Why did he save himself?)

Laksha didn’t have time to ask these questions because before that—

"boom------!"

The violent wind that swept up blew her away! The flames that followed completely blocked her vision, and the dragon that attacked her and the person who saved her disappeared from her sight.

20. This Jackie Chan is not that Jackie Chan

Ziggy felt like a fool.

(Why would I do this?)

Standing in the blazing sea of ​​fire, staring at the dragon in front of him, Sieg couldn't help but tighten his grip on the silver sword in his hand.

Dozens of minutes ago, after the Krinhild captured the situation on Laksha's side, he originally planned to rely on the Krinhild's own concealment capabilities to hide, just like he had dealt with those dragon hunters before. After all, according to Brunhild, it was impossible to detect the Krinhild with the current level of technology in the area where the Krinhild was located.

However, just as Sieg was about to hand the matter over to Brunhilde and continue his training, the Kreinhild detected an unexpected life reaction.

(I never thought... I would meet Jackie Chan in such a border area.)

Yes, a Jackie Chan.

It’s not a lower-level dragon, nor a middle-level dragon, but a dragon—a dragon that has awakened wisdom after a long time and even learned magic!

Apart from the upper dragons, Jackie Chan is the strongest individual in the dragon group. Even if dozens of first-class dragon hunters form a team, they don’t know if they can kill a Jackie Chan.

This was the first time that Sieg saw the real Jackie Chan, and before this, he had never thought that there would be a day when he would face Jackie Chan, let alone fight Jackie Chan head-on - this was not something a dragon hunter of his level could do. He could hardly even deal with ten lower-level dragons!

【Lord Sieg】

Brunhilde appears next to Sieg.

[The Laksha princess has been isolated. Although she has not left the place due to the mental shock, she is relatively safe. As long as she eliminates Jackie Chan in front of her, she will not encounter any danger.]

(Talk about easy!)

Staring at Jackie Chan intently, Sieg gripped the silver sword with such force that the hilt was almost crushed.

(Why on earth did I want to come here to save people?)

This was a point that Sieg himself found very difficult. He had obviously seen many people attacked by dragons, and had also seen many tragic scenes left after being ravaged by dragons. Logically, he should not have any feelings about this situation, and he would not be stupid enough to run out to fight Jackie Chan in order to save people.

But now...

[Lord Sieg, dodge to the left, five meters]

"Tsk!"

Almost at the moment when Brunhilde's voice sounded, Sieg ran out without thinking and followed her instructions. The next moment, the wooden dragon head that flew out from the tree canopy on the dragon's back landed directly on the place where he had originally stood, smashing the car that Laksha was sitting in to pieces!

(So ​​fast! Damn, as expected of Jackie Chan, his speed is totally not on the same level as the lower dragons!)

[But you still avoided it]

[Please be more confident, Master Sieg. Although your opponent is the powerful Jackie Chan, judging from your physical data, you are not without a chance of winning. The Dragon Slayer System and I will do our best to assist you in the battle.]

"No option to retreat?"

[If the Dragon Slayer System estimates that the chance of winning is no less than 1%, the option of retreat is not considered]

In other words, as long as there is a 1% chance of winning, the Dragon Slayer System will persist in slaying the dragon to the end!

(So ​​why why why why why did I come to save people...)

[Because this is the first time you feel you can seize the opportunity? ]

[All along, what you have seen are the remaining tragic scenes, and the scenes of the ‘aftermath’, but this time it is the ‘before’. Perhaps you subconsciously believe that you can seize the opportunity and save those people before the dragon brings tragedy - in fact, you did it, even if you only saved one person.]

[Another possible reason is that you are actually a kind-hearted person]

nice guy?

Ziggy himself?

This was the first time that Zigg had heard someone evaluate him in this way, although he had not been evaluated by anyone before.

[Above, retreat and avoid, 13 meters]

"boom----!"

The moment Brunhilde finished her words, three wooden dragon heads fell from the sky and smashed the ground under Sieg's feet again.

Sieg, who had already put some distance between himself and the victim, took two deep breaths and touched the blood flowing from the healed wound on his forehead. He was a little slow and failed to dodge completely, so luckily it was only a superficial wound without any damage to the bones.

[Lord Sieg, please concentrate and give your full attention when slaying the dragon]

[The chance of winning is not zero. The Dragon Slayer System currently estimates that your chance of winning is 47%. Please be alert and prepared. Magic fluctuations have been detected. It is presumed to be fire magic. Please be careful to avoid it.]

"—!"

Just as Zigg was surprised, a brilliant flame lit up from Jackie Chan's bloody mouth!

Blood is fire

"Boom——————————!"

The flame was something Sieg was quite familiar with, and he had used it to roast a large number of lower-level dragons. Today, it released an extremely scorching impact targeting him!

The vision was instantly engulfed by the raging flames.

Sieg subconsciously raised his silver sword and chopped it down!

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—!”

An extremely harsh friction sound suddenly rang out.

It was as if two electric saws were rubbing and cutting each other, the scorching flames and the silver energy of the silver sword were constantly rubbing and impacting at the point of collision.

but......

(…Huh?)

After the actual contact was made, Sieg couldn't help but be stunned for a moment - unexpectedly... not that much pressure?

It’s not that the power of this flame is not small. If it is shot towards other places, it can easily penetrate a mountain top. It is not difficult to burn down the city wall, not to mention ravaging the town.

However, after blocking it head-on, the pressure his arms felt was not as great as Sieg had imagined, at least not so great that he was completely unable to resist it!

【Lord Sieg】

Standing beside Sieg, Brunhilde reached out and gently grasped his hand, holding the silver sword with him.
