Hunting Cards! Star Dragon

I also hope that this item, which carries my longing, will remind Xingjian of me occasionally when he sees it during his one year in Granna.

"Don't worry, Xiaoting, I'm watching Xingjian! I won't let him be seduced away by some weird woman!" Rina patted her flat chest.

"It's because you're following me that I feel uneasy." Xiao Ting pouted and muttered.

Even when dressing up for a long trip, Rina still maintains her usual cute and pure girlish style.

Her hair was tied into a single ponytail, which looked neat and playful. The sunlight shone from the side, illuminating her light-colored shirt. The collar of the shirt was slightly open, revealing her fair skin and slender collarbone.

White over-the-knee socks paired with black thick-soled shoes highlight the eye-catching slender legs and add a touch of fashion and liveliness.

That unique sweetness and cuteness, walking together with the handsome Xingjian wearing a red scarf, the two of them have a small difference in height and age, and they really look like a couple of the right age.

(?*?ω?)?Yeah, Rina won big!

The scene of Xingjian leaving the village can’t be said to be crowded with people, but it can be considered as the whole village seeing him off.

And it was Yunxue Village and Yunlan Village, the two villages bid farewell together.

This is the first time in more than 40 years that the two villages have jointly sent off the guests.

That was the highest tribute to the hero who saved the two villages and reconciled them.

Even the means of transportation that Xingjian and the others will take later was a special-grade Chocobo transport vehicle that was obtained by Village Chief Haruhiko through his connections.

Yes, that's the Chocobo that runs faster than a Dragonite.

Chocobo March~?

Takehito: "I will miss you, Hoshimi! You are my... forever brother!"

Riko: "Now that we're in the big city, you can't touch other catgirls' ears anymore, meow. You'll be accused of harassment, meow."

Wu Lang laughed heartily and said, "Hahahaha, don't be in a hurry to say goodbye. Our two villages have specially prepared farewell gifts."

Haruhiko: "That, in a sense, is evidence of the reconciliation between the two villages. Thank you very much for your contribution, Hoshimi. Please accept it!"

It was kept secret and was specially packed in a sealed wooden box before being pushed out.

Liuli and Xiaoguang both had satisfied smiles on their faces.

Xiaoguang: "This is a precision work of the highest standard from our Union of Craftsmen."

Xingjian opened the wooden box.

Liuli: "We recovered the fragments and parts of the Dragon Striker Cannon after it exploded and made this, for Master Xingjian!"

【Portable Small Dragon Cannon】

It looks about 80% similar to a large dragon-slaying cannon, but its size is just right to be held in the hand and equipped on the arm for use.

Indeed, in a sense, the Dragon Cannon is a testimony to the reconciliation between the two villages.

Therefore, the small dragon-striking cannon was given to Xingjian as a farewell gift, which has special significance for Yunlan Village and Yunxue Village.

Although Erica did say that after the Night Parade of a Hundred Dragons was stopped, dragons would no longer appear on the same route.

But it is precisely because of the existence of the dragon-slaying cannon that Xingjian can leave the village with greater peace of mind and go to Granna to explore the wider human world.

I believe that Li Yi's will will always protect the people who work hard to live on this land.

Xiaoguang added, "Although we can't use precious jade as the furnace core, we still used the Ape King's Magic Core, which is quite high-level. Xingjian, you can look forward to seeing its power when the time comes."

(? )？

If Xingjian remembered correctly, he should have gone to a hunting academy founded by humans to learn knowledge with humans.

What's with all the anticipation for the Dragon Striker Cannon? Is it supposed to blow people up, or blow up a school?

Instructor Xiye glanced anxiously at the crowd again: "Jiuyue is so slow! She's obviously the protagonist, how come she's nowhere to be seen when we're almost ready to leave?"

Xing Jian said: "September, before she left, she was still..."

Before he finished speaking, September's excited voice came from a distance.

"It's done! I finally caught up!"

Before setting off, Jiu Yue, who was still forging a sword, now rushed to the village gate with an extra-long weapon wrapped in cloth, which did not look like a katana at all.

It is understandable that after arriving at the central city-state of Granna, there will probably be no conditions for September to forge a sword like she did in the village.

She didn't want to use rare materials to forge a new sword, only to have it lie idle in Yunxue Village for a year.

Working overtime, just for——

"Xingjian, use this sword to start a new journey!"

The knife arrived before the person arrived. Jiu Yue directly threw the extra-long weapon wrapped in cloth to Xingjian.

The strips of cloth spread out in the air, and under the dazzling sunlight, the true appearance of the blade half-covered by the scabbard was revealed.

An unusually large sword that almost surpassed Hoshimi's entire height.

Because the blade is too long, the scabbard is also designed with a semi-hollow shape with a latch, which ensures the arc of the sword when drawn and cuts, while making it convenient to draw the large sword at any angle.

The moment the sword is drawn out of the scabbard, the pitch-black blade can emit an obsidian-like depth even in the bright sunlight. Combined with the blade patterns that are connected layer by layer like the fire of purgatory, it gives people an extremely shocking feeling.

"I named it the 'Odachi of the Black Obsidian'. I finally managed to forge it before departure. How do you feel about it, Hoshimi?"

"You asked me how I felt..."

Holding the blade in his hand, Hoshimi felt the domineering aura of the Odachi, which was completely different from that of an ordinary tachi.

“So handsome!”

"Of course he's handsome!"

September blushed and rubbed her nose.

As expected, she still likes being praised the most for the knives she forged.

Especially when praised by the user, the level of joy will be doubled.

rub--!

Sheath the sword.

Because the blade is slender, the friction sound of the air exploding when the blade is retracted is louder than that of an ordinary katana.

Faintly, the moment this obsidian sword returned to its original blade, it was accompanied by a dragon's rage that seemed difficult to suppress and could erupt at any time.

Erica: "Is it really a katana made from the Ruling Dragon Fork?"

The voice of Erica suddenly sounded from behind.

The signal is connected again!

Xingjian: "Dominating Dragon Fork?"

Erica: "That's the pointed fork weapon. The captain has done research before. If it's in the hands of a commander, it can be used to drive the spirits of hundreds of dragons. But for humans, it's probably just a higher quality, harder metal weapon."

That was the analysis, but Erica only got this information based on the Grand Commander's rather one-sided research.

The data sample is totally insufficient.

The Commander-level can exert the effect of controlling the Dragon Fork, but humans cannot.

But the leader did not explain whether a dragon, especially an ancient dragon, could use the Dominating Dragon Fork after obtaining it.

Even though this dragon fork has been smelted and forged by Jiu Yue, it has a completely different shape.

But at the moment when Xingjian put the sword back into the sheath, Erica still felt the dragon's soul that had not yet dissipated in the blade.

If you can use this weapon to command the undead dragons, you may be able to better fight against the upcoming Night Parade of a Hundred Dragons.

Instructor Xiye glanced at the time and said, "Get ready to go, the three of you!"

The Chocobo transport truck outside the village had been waiting for a long time. If the farewell ceremony continued and everyone in the village said a few words, it would be a bit unfair to the driver who looked very honest.

"Okay, then we won't say any more unnecessary blessings." Wu Lang patted Xingjian's back with his big hand and said, "Go experience the wider world, Xingjian!"

"Ok!"

The small dragon-striking cannon was put back into the storage of the Lion Belt.

Hoshimi has a Stardust Katana hanging around his waist and a Black Obsidian Odachi on his back. These two swords are of different sizes, making for a unique double-sword style. Even with his half-covered face, it still can't hide his cuteness and handsomeness. His red scarf flutters in the breeze.

"So handsome!" Xiao Ting is always amazed by Xingjian.

My mother once said that when you are young, you should avoid meeting boys who are too stunning. Otherwise, the dazzling white moonlight will make every encounter in your future life dim.

"A year." Xiao Ting had never felt that a year was so long.

From then on, every day in the village, Xiao Ting would run to the calendar as soon as he got up, and then cross out a number very carefully.

Life is a life with hope.

Chocobo March~?

"Uncle, at this speed, how long will it take to get to Granna?" September asked.

"Three days will be enough," the fat and silly driver said gently even while driving a high-speed Chocobo. "If we don't encounter any monsters along the way."

"What if we encounter monsters?" Rina always felt that the phrase 'not encountering monsters along the way' was a flag.

"Two days is enough to encounter a monster. Because Chocobo will run faster when frightened."

"..."

It turns out it’s not a flag, it’s a turbo boost.

"You three, have you come all the way to Granna at this hour? Is it for the legendary holy sword?"

As the journey was boring, the driver was very friendly and started chatting with the passengers.

"Holy Sword?" Rina and Jiuyue had never heard of this matter.

"It sounds like an imaginary item from an ancient story." Jiu Yue, a swordsmith, doesn't believe anything. As long as he gets the holy sword, it can guide his destiny and bring him victory.

Weapons, after all, are only used as weapons.

"Does it really exist?"

"Yes, it exists. It is said that the Western Church found the legendary Sword in the Stone after receiving the oracle."

The Church in Western countries, like the shrines in Eastern countries, is an organization affiliated with the divine system. Therefore, anything related to it is more or less tinged with romantic mysticism.

"The Sword in the Stone, isn't that something that appears in King Arthur novels?" Rina was also a fan of the novels. "It's said that whoever pulls out the sword from the stone will be the chosen king."

"Haha, the details are a little different from the story." The driver said with a smile.

"I'm a rough man, and I don't know how to put it into words. Anyway, when you get to Granna, you'll see for yourself. It's truly stunning and beautiful. However, since no one has yet earned the recognition of the Sword of the Chosen, it's almost become a new tourist attraction."

One day after Xingjian and others left, Yunxue Village welcomed new guests.

"Finally, we're finally here." Aresetta, who was leaning on a crutch and in tatters, finally found the location of Yunxue Village after getting lost in the dense forest and being chased by wild beasts for several days.

Even though she was in tatters, Aleister still looked like a cute little loli.

It happened to be discovered by the poster girl Xiaoyue who was passing by.

"Excuse me, little sister, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Are there any silver-haired hunters here?" Aleister was too tired to talk much and went straight to the point.

"Silver-haired hunter, oh, you mean Star-Seeing."

"Yeah, right, right."

"He left for Granna yesterday."

"Huh?" Aresta's lips, dry after not drinking a drop of water for days, opened wide in surprise, and blood streamed down her cheeks. "Then, how do I get to Granna?"

"If you take a carriage, it will take a week to get there."

"Where can I get a carriage?"

The central city of Granna is the target of the Hundred Dragons Night March attack.

However, the coordinates of the inner world cannot be placed unless the dragons arrive.

It would be completely useless for Aresta to go to Granna alone.

Even so, Aleister still has no intention of giving up on her obsession with chasing the star.

"A carriage? Let's not talk about the carriage issue for now." Xiaoyue looked at Aleister's tattered clothes and her petite body that was trembling with hunger and powerless, and asked worriedly, "Little sister, do you have money for a carriage?"
