Hunting Cards! Star Dragon

After not seeing them for two weeks, the moving cat ears are still so attractive.

The one who has the advantage is soft, and the one who eats is soft-eared, so Riko couldn't refuse.

"Yuexian Snow Lotus? Why is Wu Ren looking for that thing?" Jiu Yue asked curiously.

"Meow." Riko's expression was a little complicated, and her lips were pursed into a W shape.

"Actually, Takehito's grandmother fell ill. She'd been bedridden for two weeks, so Takehito listened to the shrine maiden and came out to look for medicinal herbs, nya."

"Grandma Wu is ill? I remember her being in good health."

"They say it was because she was frightened, meow." Riko recalled, "Two weeks ago, Grandma Take went for a walk in the middle of the night because she couldn't sleep. She saw a terrifying silver dragon appear in the snowy mountains and shoot beams of light into the sky, meow."

Xingjian: “…”

"Everyone thought Grandma Wu was having a nightmare. But ever since then, she's been running a high fever and muttering about divine punishment and natural disasters."

Xingjian: “…”

What's with this damn guilt?

If it weren't for the commission, Xingjian would have wanted to help find that Yuexian Xuelian.

"So what are you two doing here, meow?"

September explained his purpose.

“∑(ΦｗΦ!! Shadow Claw Dark Dragon Meow!!”

Hearing that a dark dragon lived in the snowy mountains, Riko went straight into alert mode of a frightened kitten.

"That's a level 50 monster, meow. Can you successfully hunt it?"

"It has to be possible even if it's impossible." After dinner, Jiu Yue wiped the bow and arrow in his hand: "The Shadow Claw Dark Dragon lives in the snowy mountains. Li Ke, you should know what that means."

It is not just Yunxue Village that is threatened by the dark dragon. Although Yunlan Village is farther away from the snow-capped mountains, it is also in danger.

"To prevent more people from being killed, we must cut off the darkness here."

"September, so handsome, meow."

"Riko, do you want to come with us?" Hoshimi suggested, "and look for Takehito who's lost."

"I'm going, meow!"

Although fighting the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon is dangerous and you may die.

But if he didn't go with Xingjian and the others, and stayed alone in the snowy mountains to look for Wu Ren, and then encountered the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon alone, he would definitely die.

Riko is the best at answering multiple-choice questions.

Xingjian saw that there was plenty of food here, and the only price he had to pay was his ears. It was quite comfortable.

Thump thump thump ~?

Cat girl Riko joins the team.

As we headed deeper into the snow-capped mountains, as the sky was about to darken, a heavy snowstorm began to blow again on the unpredictable snow-capped mountains.

The three of them could only find a cave, block the entrance with snow, and prepare to rest through the most dangerous night.

The problem was there were only two sleeping bags.

"Orcs don't need sleeping bags, meow."

Because all the supplies were left at Takehito's place after they got separated, Riko had already slept dryly for two nights.

Jiu Yue suggested, "Although it's not necessary, in order to better preserve your energy for the next day, I still suggest you squeeze in with me. The cold will quickly drain your energy."

"Then why should I squeeze with you?" Riko asked alertly.

"Don't underestimate my intelligence network, meow. Jiuyue, you like girls, right? It's too dangerous. I'd rather squeeze in with Xingjian, meow!"

Although your ears might be touched all night.

"Him?" Jiuyue pointed at Xingjian, who was figuring out how to unfold a sleeping bag. "He's a man."

Xingjian nodded in cooperation as usual.

"Meow!" Riko put on a frightened kitten's expression. "Meow, meow, meow?"

When it comes to celebrities revealing their gender, everyone's reactions are very interesting, and Jiu Yue even seems to be starting to like this kind of game.

"How can there be such a beautiful boy? This world is really strange."

It’s not easy to choose a sleeping bag.

One is a girl who likes girls, and the other is a boy who looks like a girl.

You two are truly a perfect duo.

"-w-I, I'd better sleep closer to the bonfire, meow~"

In the end, Riko gave up thinking and chose the most primitive way to keep warm.

Before going to sleep, Riko, who curled up like a kitten, opened one eye and peeked at Hoshimi.

"By the way, Takehito doesn't seem to realize he's been forced into heartbreak. What a pitiful man, nya~"

There was no conversation that night. The fatigue from traveling during the day made Riko and Jiuyue sleep soundly.

Xingjian closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep as usual, while keeping an eye on the situation around the snow-capped mountains.

After dawn, the sun rose and the blizzard subsided. The slightly warm sunlight melted the snow blocking the door, creating a small hole and letting the light in.

"Get up, the sun is shining on your butt." Jiuyue held Riko's tail.

"Sleep a little longer, meow."

"If you sleep any more, I'll leave you alone."

"Wake up, meow!"

I was awakened.

Hoshimi took the scabbarded sword, poked away the snow at the door, and prepared to start the search on the second day.

"We need to increase our efficiency," Jiu Yue reminded him. "After all, with one more mouth to feed, the estimated food consumption rate is also one-third faster."

"Don't blame me, meow." Riko felt a little guilty.

Xingjian, who walked out of the cave, stood in the sunshine on the snow-capped mountains, saying nothing, catching the scent of the wind.

"No need to speed up." Xingjian suddenly spoke.

"What do you mean?"

"coming!"

Running wildly on all fours on the snow, the sharp claws scratching the ground made a harsh noise, and its weight was not even on the same level as the cat girl Riko.

It could only be a dragon—the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon.

However, there was another person following in front of the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon, and the sound of its footsteps sounded like it was fleeing.

"Help!"

"ΦｗΦ is Takehito-nyan!"

Great, now I don’t even have to bother looking for someone.

The monster that was hunting Wu Ren was, as Xing Jian had judged, the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon.

Great, now I don’t even have to bother with killing monsters.

The massive, pitch-black dragon, its body over 20 meters long, danced its limbs as it crawled. With just that devilishly massive dragon head, it was likely that if it could catch up to Takehito, it would easily devour the eight-foot-tall man.

"That's good. I don't have to run around all over the snowy mountains anymore!"

September opened the bow behind his back and inserted the card into his belt at the same time.

"Armed Transformation—Red Blood Speed ​​Dragon!"

The blood-red armor quickly covered September's tall and sexy body, like a rose blooming on the white snow.

Xingjian held the hilt of the knife and looked at the target that was approaching in the distance.

Like a violent demon from hell, wherever the Dark Dragon moved, even the snow was stained black by the filth dripping from the dragon's body.

At this moment, Xingjian thought of many things.

"Revenge for Instructor Gaode."

Request from Xiaoting.

Hoshimi drew out the katana from the scabbard at his waist with his right hand.

"To protect the village."

A commission from the village chief.

Hoshimi placed the Armament Card in the Lion's Belt with his left hand.

"I must be here to defeat you!"

The expectations of everyone in Yunxue Village.

For the first time, Hoshimi fights as a human being, carrying the concept of "hope".

And Hoshimi has long wanted to learn how to transform into an armed form with cool lines and poses, just like Erica.

"The gathered hope will turn into a raging wind that burns the snowfield!"

"Armament—Fire Blade Dragon!"

Chapter 27: Confrontation

The bright red color is different from the September Red Blood Armament. Hoshimi, who is blessed with the swaying flame-type armament, and the sword in his hand cooperates with the armament effect to further ignite the flames.

"Get ready, Xingjian!"

September's charged arrow burst out along with the charging Xingjian.

Of course, the fully charged arrow was still one step faster and shot accurately at the center of the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon's eyebrows.

For a dragon at hunting level 50, there is no need to dodge human arrows.

Even if you get hit by an arrow, it's just a scratch. Even if it's a 5x charged arrow, it's only a 5x scratch.

However, there is always a gap between reality and imagination.

"Headshot!" Jiu Yue's mouth corners slightly raised.

A headshot, of course, means making the opponent's head explode directly.

As an arrow with 5 times the damage when fully charged, September's arrow is an expensive explosive arrow.

As the name suggests, the arrows are made of explosives using a special manufacturing process, and they are made into arrowheads that explode on contact. Each arrow is sold for 200z, which is 20 times the price of an ordinary arrow.

"This is the power of human money!"

Boom——!

Wu Ren, who was only concerned with escaping, did not notice the change in the situation. He only felt the terrifying impact of five times the explosion from behind, and he was thrown forward.

Then, Wu Ren felt that someone caught him.

Xingjian, who was rushing towards the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon, happened to catch Wu Ren who was blown away by the explosion on the way, and grabbed his belt with one hand.

Wu Ren, who was held in a strange posture, saw the first thing when he opened his eyes. The silver hair that was so dazzling that even the snow scene could not hide it, and the face that often appeared in his dreams, which was more delicate and perfect than any other girl.

"Xing, Xing, see you?"

Wu Ren felt like he was dreaming at first.

Had he died under the claws of the Shadow Claw Dark Dragon at that moment?
