Matan’s Shooter

“Haa…… Haa……”

Leeha could not take his eyes off it for a long while. Is he really dead? Was that a red dragon? However, it was not possible to determine the falling point because Kuzgunak’sh did not fall in a straight line.

Fortunately, mana clairvoyance did not capture its figure. The red dragon’s huge body was nowhere to be seen.

“I can’t feel…… Kuzgunak’sh’s mana.”

The bronze dragon’s eyes widened.

Even the bronze dragon, someone who knew a dragon by its mana, could not help but be surprised. It was because he knew exceptionally well what it meant to not feel mana.

“Is Kuzgunak’sh… dead?”

The mad chromatic dragon that the Gold Dragon Bailephus was so wary of. Did he catch the tyrannical Red Dragon who tried to awaken the six-headed dragon Tiamat?!

The corner of Leeha’s mouth began to rise slowly. Seeing that, Blaugrun changed his appearance.

“Huh?!”

There was a subtle turquoise light, and before Leeha knew it, a turquoise dragon, not a handsome sculptured man, was sitting next to him.

He was definitely smaller than Bailephus and he was a little more than half the size of the red dragon Kuzgunak’sh, which was bigger than Bailephus.

[Bronze Dragon Blaugrun bows to his lifesaver.]

“Oh, ohh? Yes?”

Then, he bent his long neck downward. It was the utmost courtesy a dragon could have for a human. It wasn’t just because of the gold dragon Bailephus’ mana that was in Leeha’s body. It was a kind of awe at the human who showed incredible performance against an ancient dragon. A fight that even an adult dragon, like himself, tried to give up.

“A-As for me. Sorry for causing trouble-”

Leeha also bowed his head toward the huge dragon. However, they missed one thing, they should have thought about why Bailephus couldn’t find Kuzgunak’sh. 

“Kyahahahaha! You’ve finally polymorphed Bronze youngling!”

Pasasasak-!

Kuzgunak’sh, polymorphed into human form, emerged from the bushes. His two swords glistened in the sunlight.

[This! How!]

Blaugrun hurriedly flew into the air. However. Kuzgunak’sh’s movement was faster. It was so fast that he overtook the flying dragon in one leap!

“Eeek—”

Bang-!

Leeha quickly took out the Hummingbird-pistol and Needlegun-pistol and fired at Kuzgunak’sh, who was floating in the air, but he couldn’t match the movement that was faster than Pei Wu.

Despite quickly reloading, Leeha could not hide his dismay.

‘What? Why is he alive?! It got its head pierced!’

He even saw its mouth pierced! There was no way that the bullet that pierced the shield and the dragon scale did not hit. There was enough kinetic energy even if it penetrated the middle of its forehead to split the brain inside that big head. But how? How could he still be alive and move?

‘Besides, I couldn’t even see his mana and even the bronze dragon was unable to feel his mana-’

However, that was too much disrespect for an ancient dragon. Why did the gold dragon Bailephus say he couldn’t find the red dragon Kuzgunak’sh? It was simple. It was because his mana could not be detected using a normal method. Kuzgunak’sh was using his breath when Leeha hit it before.

It wasn’t because of the mass of mana inside the Red Dragon’s huge body that Leeha was able to get the timing correctly, but because of the mana gathering in front of it.

What about when it was in human form? Leeha had never used Mana Clairvoyance while Kuzgunak’sh walked around in human form before. Of course, Leeha couldn’t even think of that.

It was not just Mana Clairvoyance.

It was only natural that the bronze dragon, who was only an adult class, would not be able to find the mana of the Red Dragon, which even the Gold Dragon, who is one of the same Ancient Dragon, could not detect.

‘Shit! Is that why Bailephus also asked to be contacted right away?.’

Against an ancient dragon, not only would you need an iron head but also an iron tail. 

(TL: 철두철미 – To be thoroughly prepared.

철두 – Iron Head, 철미 – Iron Tail)

Now, he had to pay the price for the carelessness of getting happy for thinking his attack worked and dealt damage.

[Electric Chain-]

“Hap!”

Chains of electricity flew off, but they hit nothing because Kuzganak’sh, floating in the air, kicked the air and changed direction. It was a movement similar to the Air Step skill that Pei Wu had shown some time ago.

‘Besides, it’s harder to aim because it changed to its human form. I’d rather it be in dragon form earlier-’

Baaaaaang-!

Black Bass’ gunshot rang out furiously, but Kuzgunak’sh twisted in the air to avoid it as if he was expecting it.

The ancient dragon was more threatening when it was in its human form than when it was in dragon form.

“Give me your head, bronze youngling!”

[That’s not possible! Heeeeup-!]

Flap, flap, flap!

Turquoise light began to gather in front of Blaugrun’s mouth as he flew into the air with the use of wings and mana.

If gold and red dragons had flame breath, bronze dragons had all kinds of different types of magic system breaths.

From the mass of mana gathered in front of his mouth,

bzz bzz-! 

When the sparks started to fly, the bronze dragon let out a lightning breath.

[Paaakaaaai——–]

There was an extremely loud sound. The deafening sound of lightning breath spat out at Kuzgunak’sh.

“Blink!”

However, those who locked the space could still use space magic. The lightning breath hit past the spot where the red-shaven-haired man had disappeared. It had enough power to burn all the trees standing there, but that power didn’t even inflict serious damage on the enemy.

Kuzgunak’sh appeared above Blaugrun’s head.

“Kuhahaha! Isn’t this just a useless head!? I will put it to good use!”

[Keuk- this!]

“No!!!”

Leeha got down on one knee and lifted the Black Bass, but he couldn’t pull the trigger. It was because the bronze dragon, with Kuzgunak’sh on its head, was shaking its neck vigorously.

He wouldn’t be able to hit Kuzgunak’sh in that situation! If he fired ceaselessly, the bronze dragon might die!

‘Shit-’

However, he had to shoot. Kuzgunak’sh also swung his curved swords as the two of them flew into the sky.

“Give me your life!”

[Energy Wa-]

Baaaaang———–!

Different from the shouts and sounds that reverberated in the air.

Claang, there were glittering fragments of blades in the sky. What he chose at the last moment was not Kuzgunak’sh head.

It was the two swords he lifted.

“Kiiit?!”

[-ve!]

“Kuwaaaak!”

After 0.1 seconds of Kuzgunak’sh panicking after getting his weapons broken, Blaugrun’s magic was cast.

Even Kuzgunak’sh’s short hair twitched and stood out in the lightning that seemed to completely melt its human body.

“Keu, hehe, if only you were ancient- if only you were ancient! That would have stopped me!”

[What-]

However, the perfect paralysis effect did not happen. The movement was slow, but Kuzgunak’sh was inching toward Blaugrun’s giant body.

‘Damn it, what the fuck-’

Leeha quickly changed the magazine and aimed at Kuzgunak’sh again. However, it was already too late.

Kuzgunak’sh, not needing a sword, dug into the bronze dragon’s dragon scale with his bare hand.

[————-!!]

The bronze dragon’s death wail resounded.

The Red Dragon in its human form completely shattered the Bronze Dragon’s cervical vertebrae.

Like picking tomatoes, Kuzgunak’sh separated the Bronze Dragon Blaugrun’s head from its body.

Splash- splash- splash…….

Blood poured out from the bronze dragon’s head in his right hand. He beheaded Blaugrun with his bare hands.

“Waaaaaaa- “

Click, baaaaaaang- baaaaang—-!! Click,

Leeha screamed madly and alternately pulled the bolt and the trigger. It looked like he was shooting at random, but all the bullets were aimed only at Kuzgunak’sh.

“Kuhuhu, huhu, good, good! Now, I will put an end to you, Bailephus’ dog!”

However, Kuzgunak’sh was not hit. He kicked off from the body of the Bronze Dragon, which was about to fall, jumped up, and performed a miracle of changing direction in mid-air as he approached Leeha.

Should Leeha just watch as the Red Dragon approached him as if it was expecting his incredibly quick aim?

At that time, a voice calling for Leeha rang out.

[That- I will not allow it- Giga Thunder……!]

Did the bronze dragon’s head in Kuzgunak’sh’s right hand speak? Or did it come from the torso of the falling bronze dragon?

Leeha was unable to distinguish. The important thing was that the final magic shot was fired from the falling body of the bronze dragon!

“Kuooooot, that stings! This youngling that just barely got into adulthood, had this much in its dragon heart? Kuhuhut.”

And it was the fact that Kuzgunak’sh’s body was extremely slowed down by the lightning magic.

“Blaugrun-nim!”

[It’s thanks to the dragon heart- but- Baile-]

A broken voice could be sparsely heard. Should he immediately open fire on Kuzgunak’sh?! Leeha did not do so. A more reliable method was needed. How long did he wait for this moment, he had continued to count the duration of the magic that the Red Dragon used. 2 seconds, 1 second-

Leeh: Kuzgunak’sh has been found, battle!!!

Zero.

Would his whisper be understood right away? However, the target receiving the whisper was Bailephus. His mind easily exceeded Leeha’s expectations. A brilliant golden light exploded in front of Kuzgunak’sh, who was heading toward Leeha with the head of the Bronze Dragon Blaugrun.

“Heu, this, this.”

“Kuzgunak’sh!”

A human wearing golden armor all over his body swung his sword and shield as he appeared in front of Leeha.

Baaaaaang—–……!

The shockwave generated by the collision of the two beings pushed away all the surrounding dust. The battle between the two dragons, one in the form of a golden knight and one in the form of a red warrior took place in an instant and ended in an instant. Kuzgunak’sh did not feel the need to continue the battle any longer.

“Kuhahaha, let’s see what happens, Bailephus’ dog, let’s see what happens! Someday, I will definitely pay you back for this humiliation!”

“Stop- Blaugrun!”

Hwiiiik-!

Bailephus tried to chase after Kuzgunak’sh, who quickly tried to run away. However, it saw the body of its metal dragonkin with its head ripped off. In place of Bailephus, who had stopped the chase, Leeha shot the Black Bass toward Kuzgunak’sh.

Babam-!

He had heard the sound of achievement for a moment, but it wasn’t the time to pay attention to that.

“Blaugrun, Blaugrun, can you hear me?”

[Bail-]

“Momentary Revival.”

Hwiiiiis-!

The Gold Dragon’s highest level of recovery magic was cast.

The Ancient Dragon’s top-tier magic, which can temporarily revive even the dead, was able to maintain the life of a dragon whose head had been ripped off.

‘Crazy…… Is he bringing the dead back to life?’

Unlike Leeha, who was shocked, Bailephus was impatient.

Leeha wondered if Alexander was offline because he didn’t see him. At any rate, Bailephus conversed with his headless kin.

“What happened? How did this happen? Is your heart okay?”

[Yes, it’s fine. Forgive me for greeting you like this, elder.]

A voice came out of the bronze dragon’s chest. Only then did Leeha know.

‘Dragon heart….. right. The weak point is not in the head.’

It is said that the dragon heart, which served as both brain and heart, was their weakness. Kuzgunak’sh also did not die after getting hit by the Black Bass in the head.

A part of the dragon’s head was destroyed, but it was restored in an instant because of the Dragon Heart! It was one of the dragons’ fraudulent ways to heal their wounds.
