“Yuglan!”

Loreius’ reaction was more severe than that of Adel, who had her head blown off, or even Juglan, who had had his head blown off. He couldn’t believe that Yuglan, whom he had no doubt about, was dead.

“Don’t make a fuss, Loreius.”

But surprisingly, an answer came from the blown head. Yuglan calmed Loreius down with a calm voice.

“…Not a single drop of blood.”

Just as Adele was feeling confused by the sensation of breaking a wooden doll, the same red tattoo that was on Yuglan’s body appeared on her face.

Quad Deuk!

Then, a tree root came out from the body still held in Adele’s hand, or more precisely, from the cut area of the neck, and caught the face of Yuglan, who had flown away, and brought it back to the body.

Yuglan’s head and body attached in an instant. Adele asked with a puzzled expression.

“No, it’s a living thing?”

“Why do you think no?”

Yuglan asked back and swung his arm at Adele. Adele grabbed his arm like he did before and tried to counterattack, but Yuglan’s arm had turned into something grotesque.

Yuglan’s arm wrapped around Adele’s arm like a tree branch, or even a thorny vine. The speed of the winding was beyond imagination, and it took less than a second to cover Adele’s entire body.

“It’s over.”

Yuglan’s other arm turned into a sharp awl and rushed into Adele’s abdomen. He paid attention to Asha even before finishing Adele.

He thought that at this level, friendly intervention was essential. This is because he calculated that no matter how strong his body was, his current attack would be enough to pierce his skin.

‘Initially, the attack that blew down the house led to a defensive shield. Although it can withstand simple blows, it will be weak against piercing attacks.’

However, contrary to Yuglan’s expectations, Asha, who was watching from afar while suppressing Loreius, did not lift a finger.

Asha, who made eye contact with Yuglan, who glanced at her, laughed at him.

“Are you stupid? Why can’t you prepare for being stabbed so openly?”

“What…?”

Kaang!

The sound that should not be made when organisms collide resonated with each other. Yuglan hurriedly turned his gaze to the point of attack.

Adele’s white and smooth abdomen had silver scales. Yuglan immediately realized the identity of the scales.

“Drae….”

Quad Deuk!

“…Gon!”

Adele’s sharply grown nails grabbed the entire arm of Yuglan, who was tying her up, and pulled it out.

“Oh my, that’s a secret that shouldn’t be told.”

Adele’s other arm grabbed Yuglan’s lower crown. Yuglan fell straight to the floor.

Quang!

“Isn’t this enough?”

Adele continues to hold Yuglan’s face as if she were hammering him and slams him to the floor.

bang! bang! bang! bang! Quang!

“Wow, this guy is really tough too?”

Adele made an expression of disgust as she looked at Yuglan, which did not break no matter how many times she threw it on the floor.

“Ugh!”

However, as if there was no damage at all, Yuglan groaned in pain and deformed his body. Yuglan blocked the impact with the tree bark rising like wings behind his back and kicked Adele with his foot to increase the distance.

“Oh, you hit me again!”

“Can you say I just got hit?”

Asha said something different. The only thing Adele was ahead of Asha in was dragonification.

A dragon that has completed its growth can partially use parts of the dragon’s body, and although Adele was born a few minutes later than Asha, she was somehow ahead of Yonghwa.

This was also the reason why Asha was not worried about Adele at all, except for the very first time when it was a surprise attack. Unless an adult dragon comes, there is no one that can scratch Adele from the front.

“Dragon… Yes, I wanted to fight at least once. The owner will be very happy if I take your supplies.”

What Asha was really worried about was Yuglan’s identity. Not only was it a question of what kind of creature he was, but there were more than a few things that bothered me about his attitude as well.

Regardless of pride or self-esteem, the overwhelming majority of creatures never lose their fighting spirit upon seeing a dragon.

If you turn your back and run away, you’ll be at the level of your senses, but most of the time, you’ll freeze in place and can’t even move.

However, even if Asha and Adele were not adults yet, it was natural to be curious about Yuglan’s intention to cut off their heads so openly.

“Huh? Are you going to cut off my head? Even after stabbing him with all his might, he didn’t even get a scratch?”

Adele’s provocation. But Yuglan offered a cool-headed analysis.

“Your throat will be cut. Otherwise your cheeks wouldn’t have been so swollen. Aren’t those scales not visible on the face?”

Even though the attack speed was faked, allowing an effective hit to the face was not a surprise attack, but a head-to-head situation. Juglan’s analysis was correct.

“That’s only half correct.”

“Half?”

Adele responded to Yuglan’s question with action. Adele, who had silver scales on most of her body, used the propulsion from her ankles to quickly approach Yuglan and strike him dead.

Pow! Quang!

A sonic boom occurs after hitting at a speed exceeding the speed of sound. Yuglan was embarrassed as he could not follow the movement with his eyes even though he was standing in front.

“Do you think you can hit me in the face from now on?”

“No way…!”

Just as Asha and Adel were confident in their identity as dragons, Yuglan also had a lot of faith in himself.

This is because the being who created me is none other than Akasha. Yuglan never doubted for a moment that he, too, had inherited Akasha’s strength.

“Keuuu…! It can’t be like this!”

Yuglan, who denied reality, continued to attempt hand-to-hand combat with Adel. However, Yuglan’s hands never touched Adele’s body.

This is because no matter what tricks she used or how she transformed her body, Adele’s amazingly improved reflexes were all broken.

The one-sided battle went back and forth several more times, and eventually the moment arrived when Adel’s long ball shattered Yuglan’s body.

Quang!

“Ugh……!”

“Yuglan!”

Loreius’s fuss this time was justified. Asha, who was watching from the side, seemed to have no hope for him anymore.

Unless there was a hidden move, Adel’s victory and Yuglan’s death were confirmed. And neither Asha, who was watching, nor Adele, who was dealing with him, had even the slightest intention of keeping Yuglan alive.

Showing mercy to those who showed hostility towards oneself and even hurt one in the first place is a concept that is not included in the dragon’s dictionary, and more than anything, this is because Yuglan discovered the identities of the two.

Their mother, Arjen, who adhered to laissez-faire when traveling, told them one by one that they should never reveal their true identity.

As dutiful sons and daughters who listened to their parents, Asha and Adele naturally planned to commit murder and destruction.

“…Okay, I admit it. I’ll never be able to win like this.”

“Wow, even at that point, your mouth is still open. No matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t seem like a natural creature, right Asha?”

“It’s been a while since we agreed. i think so too. Rather, the phrase ‘as is’…”

Asha trailed off. It was a situation that was only assumed but not particularly desired. That is, if Yuglan still has numbers left.

Yuglan had complicated feelings in his own way. What he saved until the end was a means that Akasha had told him not to use if possible.

However, it was only ‘as much as possible’. His creator, Akasha, ‘never’ allowed his creation, Yuglan, to die.

It was as if it had already been decided which order to follow first.

“Okay… young dragons, let’s see if you can stop this.”

Yuglan’s golden hair faded to ocher.

“Why are there so many transformations…?”

Regardless of Adele’s complaints, the changes in Yuglan’s body continued. A large tree grew behind him.

Wood clatter!

Next, the body of Yuglan takes root. No matter how much Adele was shattered, his whole body became one with the tree sprouting from his back.

“Wow… it’s so big.”

A walnut tree rising nearly 30m. And even though it had grown on his back, Yuglan struggled to get up.

“Yuglandakeai.”

A word from Yuglan. At the same time, the surrounding atmosphere changed in an instant.

Asha, who is much more sensitive to magic than Adele, shouted at Adele.

“Adele. Hold your breath. If possible, get as far away from that guy.”

“What? Sheesh… okay!”

Adele, who was not at all frightened by Yuglan’s changes, obeyed Asha’s words in a very firm voice, even though she complained.

“Allelopathy.”

With Yuglan’s further words, the grass growing around him turned black and rotten in an instant. Birds flying in the surrounding sky also dry up rapidly, twist, and fall to the ground.

“Wow…….”

Adele let out a small exclamation as she looked at Yuglan, who had instantly turned the entire area into a land of death.

I had to retract my thoughts about whether I could move properly with something that big on my back.

There was no need to move in the first place.

“Now… let’s fight again.”

Yuglan’s steps fell.

“You can move…”

It was very slow, but Adele felt a completely different pressure than before.
