Chapter 124 Slaying the Red Mirror Dragon
Chapter 124 Slaying the Red Mirror Dragon
early morning.
The three arrived at the canyon, but did not see Hugh Tarek.
"They're not here!"
Philon stared wide-eyed at the empty canyon. For a moment, Philon was speechless. He had talked so much with Hughtark yesterday and thought that Hughtark could get back on his feet, but this was all?
"Just give up like that?"
Shi Yichen was at a loss for words at the sight.
"He ran away! And I was so looking forward to him."
Frillie watched this scene speechlessly. Although she didn't know what Philon and Shutark had talked about yesterday, it didn't matter anymore, since they had already run away.
"Sigh, forget about him, let's go kill the dragon and get the grimoire first."
With that, Frilian turned and left. Shi Yichen shook his head and followed her. It wasn't that they didn't want to take Shutark; he had run away on his own.
Now that everyone has run away, the Crimson Mirror Dragon is no longer necessary, and they prepare to leave with the grimoire.
"This is truly disappointing."
Philon shook his head helplessly and followed Shi Yichen and Frilian. He was very disappointed in Shutark. He thought he could win him back, but the result was speechless.
After Shi Yichen and the other two left, Shutark also came to the canyon. Looking at the cracks he had left while practicing martial arts, Shutark carried his axe and walked in the direction where Shi Yichen and the others had left.
…………
Dragon's Nest.
The three arrived at a cliff and saw the Red Mirror Dragon below, which was guarding its surroundings near its lair.
"Yi Chen, kill it."
Frilian said to Shi Yichen that it was originally intended for Hugh Tarker, but now it's no longer necessary.
"All right!"
Shi Yichen stood on the edge of the cliff, his right hand pointing like a sword at the Red Mirror Dragon below.
"Frilian".
Hugh Tarek's voice came from behind the three of them.
"Wait a minute, Yichen."
Upon seeing Hugh Tark arrive, Frilian gently tugged at Shi Yichen's sleeve.
Seeing Shutark's arrival, Philon smiled with relief. It seemed that what he said last night had worked.
"Just holding off the dragon for thirty seconds should be enough, right?"
Shutark approached the three men carrying an axe.
"Yes, just thirty seconds."
Frillie nodded.
"Can you promise me one thing? Even if I die along the way, you must take care of the dragon."
Shutark looked at Frilian with a serious expression. He was afraid that after he died, Frilian would give up on killing the Red Mirror Dragon, which was why he said that.
"Okay, I promise you."
Frilian assured Hugh Tarker.
"But why are you willing to work so hard for the villagers?"
Frilian looked at Hugh Tark with a puzzled expression. He had no connection with the villagers, yet he had protected them here for three whole years.
"what."
Hearing Frillie's words, Shutark couldn't help but smile.
"why are you laughing."
Frilian looked at Hugh Tarker, not understanding what was so funny.
"It's nothing, I just find this question strange. I've been in this village for three whole years."
Shutark answered Frilian's question seriously. What Shutark meant was that he had been here for three years and had long regarded the people in the village as family. Of course, he would do everything in his power for his family.
"It's very short."
Frillie didn't think much of it; three years was just a few blinks in the blink of an eye.
"It's super long, okay?!"
Shutark didn't think three years was a short time; on the contrary, he felt that he had a very fulfilling three years.
"Let's put this aside for now and go kill the dragon first."
Frilian patted Shutark on the shoulder, signaling him to hurry up and fight the Red Mirror Dragon; she couldn't wait to get her hands on the grimoire.
"Alright, let's fight it then!"
As Shutark stood on the edge of the cliff, looking down at the Red Mirror Dragon, his hands trembled involuntarily.
Your hands are shaking, aren't they?
Philen watched as Shutark's hands trembled, and he doubted whether Shutark could even hold an axe in his current state.
"Those who are supposed to be afraid will be afraid!"
Shutark was quite straightforward; he was simply afraid, without any excuses.
Shi Yichen and Frilian couldn't help but smile at this scene, because Aize's hands would tremble when facing the powerful demons.
"There's no need to laugh at me like that!"
Shutark looked at Shi Yichen and Frilian speechlessly; the more they laughed like that, the more uncertain he felt.
"I'm not laughing at you, but you look just like Aize. He trembles like this when facing a powerful enemy."
Frilian said to Hugh Tarker.
"Just like Master?"
Hugh Tarek looked at Frilian with a puzzled expression.
Then Frilian told Shutark what Azer had said when facing a powerful enemy.
"Fear is not a bad thing; it is this fear that has led me to where I am today."
This is a quote that Aize once made when facing a powerful enemy.
"Even the shaking method is the same."
Frilian smiled. Aize and Shutark were indeed master and apprentice; even their fear was the same.
“I see! My master was also very scared at the time. All I needed was determination.”
Shutark walked step by step to the Red Mirror Dragon, his eyes fixed on it. Facing the Red Mirror Dragon again, he was no longer afraid. This time, he was determined to kill the dragon.
The Red Mirror Dragon was also wary of the human in front of it; it could sense that this human was very strong.
"He has entered the dragon's attack range."
Shi Yichen and the other two stood on the cliff, looking down at Xiutark and the Red Mirror Dragon, just like when Philen faced the monster, they stood aside and watched.
It's very simple: if you win, you survive; if you die, it means you weren't strong enough.
"The dragon did not attack him."
Philon stared intently at what was below.
"The dragon was wary of him, and it was true. No wonder the village has never been attacked by a dragon since then. Dragons are very intelligent creatures and wouldn't be foolish enough to provoke a powerful enemy."
Aize beat up Shutark not because he was weak, nor because he was disappointed in him, but because Shutark instilled fear in Aize.
Looking down at Shutark, who was the first to attack the dragon, Frilian understood why the dragons had stopped attacking the village. Shutark had become a warrior so powerful that even Azer was afraid of him.
Below, Shutark had already engaged the dragon in combat. Since Shutark was a warrior, he could only fight the dragon in close combat. With a few skillful movements, he dodged the dragon's attacks and leaped up, wielding his axe to slash at the Red Mirror Dragon's claws.
With just one strike, he shattered the claws that even Philon couldn't break through. To prevent himself from falling, Shutark clung tightly to the scales on the dragon's head.
The Red Mirror Dragon flew through the air, shaking its head wildly and flinging Shutark into the sky.
The Crimson Mirror Dragon opened its mouth, its scorching flames aimed at Shutark in the air. If this attack hit Shutark, it would be enough to seriously injure him.
