The forest was filled with the smell of dung and the pauper.

Van Kerl always knew that day would come. On that day, pitchfork-wielding peasants, fairies, and striking Minions, jealous of his well-deserved wealth, would gather into a rabble and try to bring him down. The Emperor of all knew that in this moment of need, he would be called upon as the last bastion of the dragon civilization against the rebel forces.

"Did you see him?" A beggar with a small group of knights with swords asked. Winkel immediately recognized her as Pegasus Knight. The weather hurts them just as much as it does to the dragon itself, forcing its prey to advance through the snow. Each of them had that strange aura on their heads. "I couldn't see anything from this hailstorm, but I saw him crash nearby."

These lawless savages treacherously stole his servants and cut him off from his master; Now they began to surround him.

It's time to show them which species wins the class struggle.

"Surprise attack!" Winkel said as he crushed a knight to a bloody pulp. Thanks to his blinking ring, he managed to mix up in the snow and sneak through the trees like a cat. The magical shield summoned by Stormy Cornelia made it harder for Manling to chew than usual, but the dragon was hungry enough for it to chew hard.

"We're under attack!" The knight of Pagasus shouted a warning as he fired her lead weapon indiscriminately, with Vakr biting her in half.

"How...... Invisible!" One of the remaining manlins failed to recognize Winkel and cursed, "He's invisible!"

"Dragons don't run invisible ambushes!" Another answer. "They're as stupid as bricks!"

Van Kerr twitched in anger. "I have the intelligence of sixty-four!" He corrects them and then throws Manlin onto the tree with his tail, causing the plant to fall on their backs.

To his great dismay, these four afflictions reappeared after death, albeit with wounds; When they immediately tried to retreat, Winkel shelled them with a fireball. His flames resisted the hail and spread to the trees.

"Van Kerr has routed Eric's team in the north!" Cornelia's voice echoed through the trees, and snow fell from the leaves. "The golem is coming soon. Green Boy, Drake, Witz, catch him!"

Winkel snorted at these words, then noticed the Ice Dragon Knight flying above his head, and he exchanged his weapon for a strange crimson rod, which he set on fire. Unlike the dragon, his winged serpent does not appear to be harmed by hail.

Wankel opened his mouth to attack him from below, but the knight dodged the attack. "Here it is! The knight shouted.

When the roots of the trees emerged from the ground and snow, the whole forest shook. The tendrils immediately tried to trap Varkel, and he burned them with his fiery breath.

The bull knight above threw his crimson club to the ground near where Wakel was; Each one detonates when it hits the ground or the dragon's flames. One of the explosions hit the dragon to the left, tickling its scales.

You take weak damage. It reminded him of a grasshopper's wind spear, only much weaker.

To make matters worse, a magical circle appeared on the ground near Winkel, and a huge black sphere fell from it, leaving a large crater in the place where it stuck. The beggars sniped him from afar!

As the attacks and bombardments of the roots became more and more intense, Winkel let out a roar and rushed into the forest in search of a better battlefield, pushing the trees to the ground and trampling on anyone unfortunate enough to stand in his way.

A few minutes later, Winkel walked out of the forest to the shore of a frozen lake, where he slid on the ice before he could gain his footing. Hail struck its scales and wings in the wilderness.

Winkel looked around his position and was glad to see his flames engulfing the forest, blackening the horizon from the smoke.

"Go to the lake!" Grasshopper Cornelia ordered, and soon, her people emerged from the burning forest to confront Varkel on the battlefield.

A total of thirteen creatures followed him, including Knight Drake; Vai

queu

Recognize the mages, thieves and knights in it, a true group of adventurers who have joined together to die at his hands. Most are human spirits, but there are also elves, a dwarf, a beast, and even a green-skinned, fleshy orc.

At the end of the rear, Winkel noticed an elven woman with pale skin and blue hair riding a unicorn; Dressed in a heavy bearskin cloak and a cold crown, she looked like a leader.

Beside her was a fairy in disguise.

When he transforms into a man with a white beard and a crimson cloak and hat, Winkel recognizes the frailty-looking insect. The guy smiled crookedly and played a song with a pipe made of bones.

"Lin intervenes!" Winkel recognized the hateful liar. He should have known that he was behind this rabble uprising. "Did you come to see the back of my hand again, Pied Piper?"

"Dispel the magic!" A mage dressed in a robe covered in symbols pointed in Van Kkel's direction, disarming him from invisibility. Many in the adventurous army gasped at the sight of his crimson scales.

"He's huge! One of the mages, dressed like a ghost on a bedsheet, gasped in awe of the dragon's majesty.

"Audi, don't stand there, summon an elf." The elf on horseback commanded, revealing that she was Cornelia the grasshopper.

"Wait for the left! The ghost on the sheets made some strange movements, but Van Kerr reacted first. The dragon opens its mouth and tries to destroy the entire expedition with its flames.

"[Strengthens Rune Barrier]." The symbol wizard responded, creating a yellow shield covered with symbols around the army. Although it cracked, the protective shield blocked Winkel's breathing, much to his annoyance. The fire began to melt the nearby snow and ice, although not enough to destroy the lake.

"(Summons Snow Dancer)!" The Sheets Ghost finished his ridiculous dance, forming a white magic circle around him. A light ice statue with hair made of mist. Outwardly, the creature resembles an elf, with blue crystal blades hanging from her arms and a white mask covering her face. String tied her limbs to the sheets, like a puppet.

"Minions!" Winkel shouted, anxious to see his chief of staff; If they summon reinforcements, the Emperor will summon reinforcements as well. "Minions! Give me back!"

"He's calling Dalton!" When the barrier was dispersed, Cornelia issued a warning, causing her warriors and ice monsters to charge at Winkel.

"[Ninjutsu: Sealing Skill]!" A man wrapped in black leotards gestured, and the dragon immediately felt weakened.

Your [Summoning Messenger (Victor Dalton)] has been sealed by Ninja Jay!

You won't be able to use the PE

K, as long as the ninja Jay stays on the scene!

"Let's use the Azymkul formation!" Rune Master stays behind to protect the buffer!" Cornelia commanded loudly. "Cardinal, heal our tanks and damage vehicles!" According to my strategy, we will definitely win!"

Her minions let out an enthusiastic shout, and Winkel scoffed. He's crushed insect armies in the past, and he'll do it again; Even if he was going to kill them twice.

The adventurers divided into different groups to surround Winkel. At the forefront, the dragon faces the Snow Dancer, a sturdy beast with a giant hammer, a knight with runes in bronze armor, and a dwarf dressed as a priest. They are joined by Drake Knights, providing air support.

Ninja Weeb and a pig-like orc that smelled of herbs and feces walked to his left; An elven archer on horseback flanked him from his right.

Elf Cornelia stood behind, flanked by Mel Lim, the Pied Piper, the Rune Master, a ragged catkins, a summoner, and a mage in a black cloak and a wizard's hat.

"Magic Purification!" Van Kerr launched his favorite Pe

K, charge towards Cornelia, ready to trample anyone in his way. Scantily clad catkins began to dance, fairies sang, and runemasters erected a barrier to protect the guards.

Dancer Felix's [Witchcat Tango] elevates the magical power of enemy mages!]

The front-line troops intercepted Winkel, and the hammer-wielding Manlin raised his weapon and lunged at the dragon. The dragon poked him out of the way, but surprisingly, the monkey dodged the blow, fell on the ice and quickly got to his feet. "Snow Dancer" glided on the ice at incredible speed, sliced through Van Kerr's ankle and quickly dodged a counterattack.

［F

Ostblade has made a super effective hit! You've taken medium cold damage!

“Waifu

o Raito

!” Ninja Weeb clasped his hands together and made a strange gesture towards Vai

queu

A bolt of lightning was fired, and the orcs breathed in a storm of petals. The dragon's scales blocked both attacks, and the Emperor backhanded the Bronze Horseman instead. "You can't break through the dragon's defense!"

"Sneak attack, the druid will switch to support," Cornelia instructed, turning to the dark wizard beside her. "Witz, use your strongest spell; All-out attack!"

"Little demo

ba

e !” When the Snow Dancer moves to attack again, Winquill throws at her, hitting her. Both the creature and its summoner tripped up, leaving Van Kle wondering if the latter had possessed his minions. Before he could act, the Archer rider fired an arrow at him from the side, while the Drake rider prepared to throw more bombs. The archers fired first, and Van Kerr raised an arm to block his way, and after being hit, he let out a shout.

[Dragonslayer's Arrow deals double damage!]

Winkel moved at extraordinary speed, grabbed the horse before the horse and the archer ran away, and threw both at the Drake Knight. The startled knight could not dodge the improvised shell, and the fighter crashed on the frozen lake.

Their bombs exploded, tearing them apart, causing part of the frozen surface to collapse; The orc mage is trapped in the explosion and then falls into the icy water.

Both the archers and the duck knights were wounded and reappeared on the icy lake, next to the hammer-wielding; The halo above their heads was gone. “[Multi-Heal] !” The dwarf priest stretched out his hands and released a wave of golden energy around him. The wounds of the warriors around him healed immediately.

Realizing that their magical protection kept them safe from his physical attacks, Winkel used his breath instead, cooking everyone in sight. His breath reduced the Drake knights, archers, and barbarians to ashes, killing the first two and causing the third to run around screaming in agony. The dwarf managed to dodge, and the Snow Dancer and the Bronze Knight stabbed him in the leg like pins. Winkel came to his senses and threw the Bronze Horseman into a crack in the lake, watching him struggle to float before sinking.

Dark wizard Witch finished casting a spell and threw an evil orb of black energy through the protective barrier, and the projectile hit Van Kerr in the back. His whole body began to itch, but not as much as it had been when he had fought Moore.

You've taken medium evil damage!

You've lost 25% of your HP!

"Druids and Rune Knights haven't shown up yet, Boss." The catkins dancers panicked. "He's tearing us apart!"

"Half of our team is missing!" The summoner panics, while Van Kerr keeps trying to incinerate his ice minions. "What is Hilda doing?" She should have killed that servant a long time ago!"

"Knight Bane has lost more than a thousand health points and can't recover!" Cornelia shouted, as if it were something to boast about; Only the fairies did not panic and played the flute happily in the midst of the chaos. "Keep weakening him!" It's a matter of life and death!"

"Yours!" Between the two fierce attacks, Winkel laughed at them. Weeb, the ninja who had escaped his attention, reappeared, sword in his hand and lunged at the dragon.

"Goodbye, reptile!" The blade was stuck in Varkel's head......

and crushing.

Before Manlin could choke on his incompetence, he was bitten in half by Wankel.

He reappeared a few feet away, but Winkel didn't mind. He tasted like fish food and couldn't wait to eat it again. "Invincible! The dragon boasted to himself and rejoiced. "Vanquil, Vanquil, Vanquil!"

Then, the ground shook, and a new challenger emerged from the forest. Van Kerr turns to face the newly suicidal adventurer, only to find himself facing a puppet.

A giant golem, almost as big as a dragon. It was a mechanical giant, clad in heavy knightly plate armor, wielding a longsword as long as his own tail, and a round shield with a strange hole in the middle. Its face is a helmet in the shape of a skull, which is used to intimidate the Manlin people, and it smells like a fairytale.

"Is this the best challenge you little fairies can offer?" Vai

queu

Jeer. He hoped that killing the walking tin can would get a good thing.

The golem ignored his words and raised his shield and charged at him. The dragon's response is to hum and then spray it with dragon fire......

It goes on and on.

Winkel increased his production, his eyes widening in shock; However, the golem continued to charge, shielding the flames.

A huge lightning bolt struck Winkel from behind, causing him to fall, interrupting the attack.

You are struck by [Coming Doom]!

Before Van Kerr could gain a footing, the golem lunged at him, slashing at his chest, cutting through his scales and bleeding profusely.

［D

ago

slaye

The double-edged machete has done serious damage!

How is that possible?

His flame is brighter than the sun!

Meanwhile, Victor is fighting for his life; Deal with his enemies and poisons.

You have taken passive [Poison] damage!

You've lost half of your HP!

The vizier ignored this information, focusing on anticipating the archmage's onslaught. He dodged, but could not avoid the Crusader weapons aimed at his chest. A sixth wound opened under his nipple, and he narrowly escaped the knight's spear aimed at his head. The knight opened another crack before Victor could fight back and disappeared again.

With the help of the summoned undead, he once succeeded in killing the Crusaders, only to bring the Tin Man back from the dead and heal. That warrior was not dangerous and more resilient, flanking him to make it easier for the god of war to hit him in the chest.

Any blow she throws will kill him.

Only his [Scare Knight] skill saved his life and weakened his enemies, allowing him to resist so far. Up to now.

"Fatal blow! The god of war cheered herself up, and every blow she struck smashed a tree to pieces. Victor summoned another bundle of will spirits as a buffer, and the Crusaders destroyed it almost instantly.

Warning: You will run out of SP in no time!

"I know!" Victor shouted, finally finding a breach in the Crusaders' defenses and blowing him up in the face with hellfire. This time, the samurai was scorched by his armor and fell to the ground and died.

Vitality check successful! You have lost your [poisonous] status.

Well, only the god of war and the knight remain. He can do it! Victor fired another fireball at his enemy, but the woman jumped away; He was ready to shoot again

You ran out of SP.

…

Mana is depleted!

Without any chance of survival, Victor rushes to the corpses of the other adventurers he has killed.

More precisely, bazookas.

Unfortunately, the terrible sensation of the ice spear piercing his back shattered his hopes and caused him to fall in the snow.

Super effective hit!

Warning: Health is critical!

Your HP has dropped below 25%!

"Finally! The Nightmare Knight announces that he and his beast are standing in front of Victor, both spears raised. "I thought he would never sink!"

"He killed Sven." "We have to kill him and help the others. I could still hear the sound of battle in the distance. ”

"Yes, yes," replied the rider, ready to trample Victor to death with his horse. "See you in Paradise of Happiness, little ghost—"

"Let's wa

udo !”

In the blink of an eye, the knight had turned to dust, his spears had fallen on the snow, and his horse had stopped in the confusion.

Victor's eyes widened as a dark lich suddenly appeared between the god of war and her prey. "Mine! The undead roared, then casually killed the Hammer Warrior with a crimson light, "My, my, mine!"

“Fu

ibo

?” Victor couldn't believe it. "You saved me?"

"Mine." The lich replied that when the god of war and the Headless Horseman came back to life for the second time, he struck them again. Unfortunately, he sounded more angry than friendly: "[Reinforcement Binding Cold]!"

As the lich spoke, ice chains appeared beside Victor, tying him like ham to the snow.

"Now, I can kill you with my own hands."

Of course, he won't save him. The Chancellor cursed under his breath and tried to melt the chains with the fire of hell.

You ran out of SP.

Damn it!

The Lich repaired Victor's scythe with a spell, grabbed it, and lifted it to the head of the previous wielder, "just like before...... Except that I'm going to carry you around on my back and make you unbearable for eternity. ”

"You're kidding," Victor noted. "The Soul Trap will only work if I finish the final blow"

"Oh." The lich sounded disappointed, but recovered quickly. "Well, I guess I'd better kill you the old way."

"Wait!" Victor insisted: "Don't I have one last request?"

Charm Check......

Failed!

"This violates the Article 14 strategy."

Oh, don't do that!

Fu

ibo

Lay down the scythe and prepare to behead his former captive. Victor waits for the end, but the blade stops less than an inch from his neck. "Aren't you screaming?" The undead asked.

"Oh, you know, it's my third time." Victor shrugged. "It's still bad, but you'll get used to it."

"Try hard." Furybon ordered. "I didn't save you so that our relationship would end like this."

Why did the lich drag his death? Unless...... Unless......

Unless he doesn't want to.

"You have Stockholm syndrome," Victor realized.

“… There is no ......"

"You have Stockholm syndrome!" Victor is happy because the lich cannot carry out the execution. "I knew it was contagious!"

"Shut up!" Furyburn roared and trembled, but couldn't finish the kill. "I don't care!" I didn't...... I'm not sick!"

"When I caught it, I wanted to die too," Victor comforted him. "You'll get used to it after a while."

"That's it!" The lich cursed him in an ancient language, angry that he couldn't kill Victor forever. "I'm fed up with you and that giant wyvern!" I want both of you to be leaders!"

After saying the final curse, Fu

ibo

The scythe with Victor teleported in a flash of light.

The chains that bound Victor were soon gone, and he was disarmed, lying in the snow, facing the Nightmare Horse, which now had no riders. The vizier glanced at the adventurer's corpse—mostly their equipment—and then the beast.

No, that...... That's ridiculous......

…

He couldn't resist.
