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

"It hurts~ Miss Tina, you really need to change this habit. After all, you are no longer Miss Tina on the Crimsheed, but Gargantina of the Roaring Blood Clan."

"------!"

After hearing what Sieg said, Tina suddenly realized this fact. She quickly glanced at her compatriots around her, only to see that they were looking at her with various, but equally wonderful expressions.

Bagram also looked at her with some surprise.

"No! My king, I, I am... I... just..."

Tina wanted to explain immediately.

But Sieg suddenly slapped her on the back and sent her towards the Roaring Blood Clan: "Then, as you said, let's stop here, Miss Tina."

"Our eight-year relationship ends today. If we have a chance to meet again, it will only be on the battlefield. I will kill you mercilessly by then. If you dare to hold back because of our old friendship, I will kill you even harder."

"..."

Looking at Sieg who once again spread his azure wings behind him and slowly flew up with Himerahira Setsuna in his arms, Tina finally felt something real.

(Yes, that's how it should be.)

(I should have known that this time was not a temporary separation like the previous two times. He would definitely come back to the Crinshid. This was a farewell between him and me... forever.)

(Is this what a true farewell feels like?)

Fragments of memories emerged in Tina's mind.

Obviously, for her, the past eight years were just a short period of time in her long life, but incredibly, she could recall so many things at once.

She still remembered the look in Sieg's eyes that never completely lost hope no matter how many times she beat him to death.

She still remembered surviving together with Ziggy in the deserts, glaciers, and rainforests of Earth-52, and walking together on the streets of a foreign country.

She remembered his grudging gratitude the first time she had rescued him from an enemy far more powerful than himself.

......

She still remembers a lot of things.

Even though they were trivial matters that were not worth mentioning and were things she would have forgotten in the past, at this moment, they inexplicably seemed to make her miss them.

"...You don't need to worry about this kind of thing."

With a faint smile on her lips, Tina waved goodbye to Zigg: "If we really meet again on the battlefield, then I will regard you as my greatest enemy in this life, and crush you mercilessly, just like I have done to you countless times in the past eight years."

"But then I won't take you to the hot springs anymore."

"——Goodbye, [Flame Beast] Siegfried."

9. Thunder Beast Arrives

It didn't take too much time to return to the surface from the fourth level of Hell Valley.

In just a few minutes, Sieg carried Himeragi Setsuna to a forest near Hell Valley.

After putting her down again, Sieg stretched his arms and legs: "Hmm~~~~ Even if this solves one problem, what should I do next?"

"That...senior."

Seeing Sieg's relaxed look, Ji Shu couldn't help but ask, "Senior, do you think this is okay?"

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"It's about... Miss Tina." Ji Hiiragi pursed her lips, "Miss Tina and I have only lived together for a year. Maybe I don't know her very well and our relationship is not particularly good. But you have lived with her for eight years, right? If we separate like this, won't you feel... lonely?"

"Nope."

Sieg answered decisively, shrugging his shoulders twice: "In the final analysis, the relationship between Tina and I was originally a bad one. My relationship with her was not very good back then. At the beginning, I locked her in a magic absorption device and drained her magic for a long time."

"You could say she didn't have much affection for me, and I was the same... But, I can't remember exactly when, but my relationship with her inexplicably improved. Maybe it's because we've been together for a long time?"

A long enough period of time can wear away most things.

Even for Sieg and Tina, who were at loggerheads at the beginning, it is not surprising that their relationship has eased after living together for eight years.

"If you want to talk about loneliness, she will feel a little lonely. After all, one of her longest-known companions is gone. However, Hell Valley and the Roaring Blood Clan are where she should go. They are where she has always wanted to go back. I have no reason to stop her from going home."

"Not to mention that this was something we had agreed on eight years ago."

In fact, from a practical point of view, Sieg can go back to see Tina now. Anyway, the Krinshid has recorded the spatial coordinates of the first four levels of Hell Valley and can be directly teleported there at any time.

Even if the current strength of the Clinhild is gathered, it would not be difficult to defeat the Roaring Vampires.

However, there is no need for that.

Sieg's goal is to live a peaceful life. Although there were some frictions and conflicts with the Roaring Vampires before, now after handing over Tina, they are even. From now on, as long as the Roaring Vampires don't take the initiative to cause trouble for Sieg, Sieg doesn't plan to take the initiative to attack the Roaring Vampires.

"Perhaps after a few decades, I will remember to go and talk to Miss Tina, but there is no need for that now."

"Really... I understand."

Ji Shu nodded slightly: "Then what should we do next? Find the nearest village to rest? Or return to the Clinshid first?"

"Well, I was wondering—"

Halfway through his words, Sieg suddenly looked up at the sky in the distance, then raised his lips slightly: "No, let's not talk about this now. And Ji Shu, you should go back to the Clinshid first. I have something else to do next, and I will go back after it's done."

"Eh? Senior——"

Just as Ji Shu was about to say something, the teleporting light enveloped her.

Sieg stared into the distance with his eyes, gently holding a silver sword in his right hand.

He could feel that something was approaching quickly in the horizon, a long distance away from where he was.

Moreover, judging from the response sent back from the Dragon Slayer System's perception system, he was actually quite familiar with that [thing].

(——Here it comes.)

Although it had not yet appeared in his field of vision, this thought suddenly occurred to Sieg.

Immediately afterwards——

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM——————————!!!”

Hundreds of violent thunders turned into torrential rain and fell from the sky!

That was far more powerful than any lightning magic Sieg had ever encountered! Even the [Lion's Gold] in the True Ancestor's magic was no match for the countless lightning that occupied the sky at this moment!

Without any hesitation, Sieg swung the silver sword!

——【Dragon Slayer Skill】

——【Dragon Flash】

“Zheng——————————!!!”

The burst of light that could destroy anything instantly shot up into the sky! It collided with the overwhelming thunder and lightning storm!

“Boom——————————!!!”

A deafening roar broke out!

The terrifying impact instantly razed the small forest where Sieg was! A huge depression appeared on the ground. Within a radius of hundreds of meters, only the ground under Sieg's feet was still intact, like a stake standing in a pit.

(This lightning magic can’t be wrong!)

An uncontrollable joy appeared on Sieg's face, and he subconsciously slashed the silver sword towards the sky!

At the same time, an even faster lightning bolt, exceeding the speed of sound, fell straight down from the sky!

“clang————————————!”

A perfect collision suddenly caused an even more terrifying impact!

The exploding lightning and sword light smashed a large number of holes in the entire deep pit and the intact ground outside the deep pit, and tore a large number of gaps!

A dark figure that seemed strange and familiar to Zigg came into his sight.

Then——

"——————————!"

The vision was torn apart by endless lightning and sword light!

The golden thunder and the dark flashes mixed in it intertwined into a deadly wave of death, completely occupying every inch of space around Sieg!

——【True Ancestor Magic】

——【Double-horned Deep Scarlet】

The flame-shaped mark on Sieg's neck suddenly flashed a deep red light.

——【Super Vibration Wave】

“Buzz————————————!!!”

The vibrations that were enough to stir up a storm and shake the earth burst out from Sieg in all directions! The all-round vibration impact directly blocked all the lightning and flashes outside, and then shook them all away! The death storm that had just formed in the previous moment collapsed and disappeared on the spot in this moment!

Then, a golden flash flashed across the mark.

——【True Ancestor Magic】

——【Lion's Gold】

——【Thunderstorm】

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM————————————!!!”

There was no restriction on the output of magic power, allowing the magic power to be released at will. At the moment when the super vibration wave ended, a tsunami-like endless lightning burst out immediately after, engulfing the dark figure in an instant!

But Sieg's counterattack did not end there.

——【Magic Sword Skills】

——【Dragon King Flame that Burns the Sky and the Earth】

The fire is burning!

Sieg's silver sword swung at a lightning speed, and the giant sword of light and heat that could even ignite the sea slashed down with a loud bang!

“Buzz——————————!”

The destructive energy destroyed everything in front of Sieg!

However, amidst the terrifying energy of the sword of light and heat, a pitch-black figure suddenly flew into the sky at lightning speed, and then swooped down at an even faster speed!

Sieg turned his wrist, and the giant sword of light and heat slashed diagonally towards the sky!

“BOOM——————————————————!!!!”

The edge of Hell Valley.

A deafening sound erupted that could be heard even dozens of kilometers away!

It crushed the earth, ravaged the forest, and let the wailing impact of space sweep in all directions in an instant!

And in that pit——

Placing the blade of the silver sword on the opponent's neck, Sieg stared at the face of the man in front of him, who had become more powerful and mature than in his memory, and even more sharp and powerful, and smiled:

"After eight years, this is how you greet me?"

“——Shenwei.”

10. [Thunder Claw] and [Saint Maiden]

Although it was very different from what he remembered, Sieg would never make a mistake.

This power is even greater than the speed of lightning, this extremely powerful lightning magic...

"After eight years, this is how you greet me?"

"Divine power."

Sieg smiled and said the name of the young man in front of him.
