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

Approaching Sieg, Em's lips curled up slightly.

"What I mean is... don't let her die so simply and worthlessly. If you want to let her die, you have to wait until she can no longer be used to gain any value. After all, she is a dragon, so there is no need to treat her as a human, right?"

[Lord Em is right, Lord Sieg]

Brunhilde also nodded.

[Also, the Dragon Slayer System gave an affirmative reply. In terms of benefits and efficiency, Em's plan is indeed worth adopting.]

"Um......"

Zieg pondered for a while and said, "Ms. Em, there is something I want to confirm first—"

57. The hell you brought to me

So, after returning to the bottom energy zone again——

"——This is the situation. You will not die in two months, but you will be arranged like this."

Looking at Gargantina in the container, Sieg roughly repeated Em's plan.

After hearing what Sieg said, Gargantina, whose gag had been removed, was glaring with anger!

[How dare you! How dare you! To what extent do you intend to insult me ​​and the Roaring Blood Clan! Damn human!]

Originally, Gargantina was extremely dissatisfied when she heard that she would be killed in two months.

She was the second rank of the Roaring Blood Clan! The strongest of the clan under the Dragon King! And now she was declared dead so rashly?

But now, this human in front of her actually changed his mind? Not only did he not intend to kill her, but he actually planned to make her his slave? His servant? His experimental subject? !

When has she, a second-rank official, ever been looked down upon like this?

When has her dignity and pride as a member of the Roaring Vampire Clan ever been trampled upon like this!

"What am I afraid of?"

Sieg asked back coldly, leaning against the ice stake.

"I know that you are the second rank of the Roaring Blood Clan, a heavy armored dragon that can easily kill me. If it weren't for the current situation, I would never talk to you like this. Just like when I fought you before, you didn't even need to use your full strength to easily kill me."

"I know that—but I've got you now."

Zig put his hand on the shock button.

"In that case, you are not a second-tier heavy armored dragon. You are just a source of magic power that was captured to provide energy. And whether you live or die depends on my opinion. No matter how dissatisfied you are, you can only accept this reality."

"Just like me when the whole village was destroyed by dragons, no matter how angry, scared and sad I was, I could only accept it after calming down."

"Don't think you are so special and important now, Heavy Armor Dragon."

(That should be enough, right?)

(This speech Miss Brunhilde wrote for me is really hard to memorize.)

Sieg was not originally such a talkative person. The reason why he could scold Gargantina so bluntly now was mainly because Brunhilde provided him with a speech script.

After being scolded by Sieg, Gargantina's face suddenly became twisted and fierce because of anger! Her eyes were full of uncontrollable anger and murderous intent! Just like an enraged beast king, if she was not restrained now, Sieg was sure that she would tear her to pieces!

But the reality is that she simply can't do it.

After a long confrontation, Gargantina seemed to finally face the reality, and her anger slowly subsided.

[.......Then what are you doing here? ]

[Since you have already decided on my treatment, why are you still informing me? 】

"Because I have some minor opinions on this plan, and I really need to ask for your opinion on this." Sieg said, "To be honest, it is difficult for me to accept the idea of ​​you being my teacher and teaching me magic and how to fight, both physically and mentally."

[Me too, you'd better pray that the spiritual shackles and soul imprints you mentioned as well as the restraining magic on me can completely restrict me, otherwise I will definitely kill you! ]

"Since you are so cooperative, that's easy to say."

【What? 】

After leaving the icicle and coming to the container, Sieg gently hit the container and a somewhat crazy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "When the time comes, I will not add mental shackles to you, nor will I add anything else to you. Apart from the restraining magic that has been engraved on you, nothing will be added to you."

"And when you practice with me, you don't need to think about how to teach me. Just use all your strength and fight me with the intention of killing me. I will also fight you with all my strength with the intention of killing you."

【......are you serious?】

Because this was a really surprising arrangement, Gargantina couldn't help but ponder for a moment before asking the question.

[Are you looking for death? ]

"If I just practice with you normally and let you be my sparring partner, then even if I can become stronger, the increase won't be too much. What I need is the same as before, a life-and-death battle with an enemy who is equally strong as me or one or two levels stronger than me."

“Only by pushing myself to the limit and putting myself in a situation where I can clearly feel death can I reach higher places as quickly as possible.”

During the battle with the Misty Dragon, Sieg became stronger at a speed he didn't even notice.

Before entering the Hell Valley, his use of the Dragon Flash was still at the level of charging up energy to make a perfect attack, but after being surrounded by countless dragons, he himself didn't know when he learned the Dragon Flash technique.

Even when he lost the silver sword, he subconsciously thought of using frost magic to replace the silver sword, reducing the output to facilitate the release of Dragon Flash faster, and a series of other changes.

This is something that ordinary training cannot bring him.

"I need you to give me hell, Heavy Armor Dragon."

“Give me a hell that I can be trapped in and I can only escape from after taking two or three steps with all my might. After that, give me another hell that I can only escape from after taking four or five steps with all my might. Then I will die after seven or eight steps, ninety steps…”

"Luckily you're the only one so far who can really kill me easily, so I can make such an assertion."

Lukewarm training can only make people become ordinary strong people, and let them "live" ordinary. Once they encounter a real crisis, that level of "living" will end in an instant.

Only when you have experienced countless hells and mastered the concept of "living", can you be considered truly "living".

[…What can I get? ]

Gargantina asked.

[Although I am a prisoner, according to what you said, I have no rights here. But since you are here to ask me to do what you said, you have to pay enough for me to accept your opinion.]

【While giving you hell, what can you give me? 】

"I already told you - you can beat me up all you want."

Ziggy laughed.

"You can tear off my arms and legs, rip open my stomach, stab my eyes, pierce my throat, or even crush me with your gravity. Anyway, on this ship, even if I die on the spot, I can come back to life as long as I am dead for no more than a day."

"But for you, being able to beat me up as much as you want without having to pay any price and venting your inner anger and murderous intent without being able to regain your freedom is already the most appropriate reward, right?"

Is it okay to beat up the little brat in front of you as you please, even to the point of killing him?

A ferocious look appeared on Gargantina's face.

【make a deal】

"Very good - I look forward to the [Hell] you will bring me in two months."

58. The Obligation of the Roaring King

[You are taking a lot of risks by doing this, Lord Sieg]

After walking out of the bottom energy area, Brunhilde, who was guarding outside the door, suddenly said this to Sieg on the way back.

[According to the calculation results of the Dragon Slayer System, if you do this, there is a 11.99% risk of being completely killed by Gargantina.]

"That means there's a high chance that I won't die, right?" Sieg smiled back, "I know what you're worried about, Miss Brunhilde, but the lukewarm training really isn't suitable for me. I still want some intense training so that I can feel at ease."

"Because the stronger I am, the more at ease I can live."

If you are too weak, even survival will be a problem.

Those who can survive are always the strong ones. No matter in which aspect, as long as they are strong enough, they can survive. The easiest and most intuitive way to become strong is to have one's own strength.

[I understand, Master Sieg]

Brunhilde nodded in understanding.

[In that case, I will incorporate your request into the training menu of the Dragon Slayer System. At the same time, since you requested this, the efficiency of the magic absorption device will also be improved so that Gargantina can be released faster.]

"Improve efficiency? In other words, it won't take two months?"

[Yes. Currently, the efficiency of the magic absorption device is at the third gear, which is also the most commonly used gear. If the efficiency is increased to the highest gear, the replenishment time that originally took two months can be directly shortened to half a month. Although this will cause a certain degree of physical damage to Gargantina, I think it is something that does not need to be worried about.]

[The body of the upper dragon is not that fragile, and if you think it is possible, you can also give her the precious resurrection hot spring.]

From two months to half a month?

Without thinking too much, Sieg nodded and agreed to this matter: "Well, then let's improve it, but there is no need to let her take a hot spring bath. If she does that, I probably won't step into that bathroom again. Isn't it possible to do this earlier?"

[In that case, she would have been released and killed by you before reaching today's conclusion.]

[Plans can never keep up with changes, Lord Sieg, and any thoughts and opinions after an event will seem redundant and worthless.]

"Is that right?"

[That's it - by the way, now that it's over, do we need to restart tonight's night training? The relevant preparations will be completed soon.]

"Then you go get ready. I'll go to the training ground to warm up. Let me know when you're ready."

[Okay, Master Sieg]

————————————————————————————

At the same time, Sieg and Brunhilde began to prepare for night training.

The deepest part of Hell Valley, the unknown floor.

On a viewing platform that overlooks the entire floor.

"Still haven't found Gargantina?"

The man, whose mouth was covered by a hideous mask and whose whole body was wrapped in a large windbreaker that looked like thick fog and shadow, spoke coldly to the empty surroundings except himself.

And the next moment, the thoughts from his companions rang in his mind.

[Yes, my king. We have sent a large number of lower-level and middle-level dragons to search for her, but we can’t find any trace of Tina.]

[However, based on the existing clues, Tina was most likely taken away by the beam of light that fell from the sky. It is speculated that it is the secret weapon of the Sun God Cult, so Tina might...]

"Throw away that idea, Lubois."

The man responded to the voice in his head.

"If it was a secret weapon of the Sun Cult, they would have used it on a large scale long ago. It is impossible for them to have kept it hidden until now and only used it once. And the important thing is, even if Gargantina was captured by the Sun Cult, there is no way we cannot contact her."

No matter whether it is a superior dragon, a middle dragon or a lower dragon, they can all communicate through telepathy. Although only the superior dragon can actually issue orders, the middle dragon and the lower dragon can only obey orders. However, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to sever the connection between dragons.

Not to mention that the contact initiated by the man who is the king of the Roaring Vampires to his own vampires is almost impossible to cut off.

However, the reality was that no matter how he tried to contact her, Gargantina, his right-hand man, did not respond, and all his attempts to contact her fell on deaf ears.

"…It's my fault."

After hesitating for a while, the man's tone became somewhat remorseful.

"Perhaps I should have dealt with it myself when the Hell Valley was opened by the light barrier, but I underestimated the enemy and thought that Gargantina was enough - it was my misjudgment that caused me to lose her."

[My king! Please don’t blame yourself like this! ]

The first-level manager who was previously repelled by Sieg, the Phantom Mist Dragon Lubowa, quickly spoke up.

[You did nothing wrong. All the responsibility lies with my subordinates. It was my subordinates who failed to provide any support to Tina, allowing the intruders to easily take Tina away on the floor I managed! It was me...I harmed Tina! ]

"Lubois - neither you nor I should apologize to each other."

The Roaring King said in a deep voice.

"The one we should apologize to is Gargantina, who died because of our negligence. I believe she is still alive, at least I haven't felt her life end. In this case, what we need to do is to use the strength of our entire clan to find her back."

[My King——]

"Let's increase the number of dragons we send out, including Jackie Chan. Even though there is a distance limit for telepathy between vampires, if we increase the number, Gargantina will definitely be able to receive our message even if she is at the end of the world."

[As you command, then regarding the Sun God Cult——]

"Don't worry about it. As always, just destroy them all when you encounter them."
