The Mystery of Dragon Slaying (1)
Kwarrrrung!
The explosion at the Colossus of Krimhild was clearly heard by Antoniou, Shelford, and Arin as well.
And a ray of light flashed high in the sky.
“what?”
“Are you sure you’re tricking us?”
“Oh, no! We don’t know about this!”
Antonio cried out in thought as the blade was lowered beneath his chin.
“Then what is that?”
“that……!”
At that moment, a hypothesis flashed through Antonio’s mind.
‘No way! Draw, Gray, these crazy guys!’
Antonio knew very well how strong the animosity of Drow and Gray was towards Ragnar.
Even if the Battle of Fort Blanqui was a trap set by Troy Ban, it was true that Slow, whom they trusted and followed, was killed by Ragnar.
But I believed that since they were pursuing a cause, they would follow the consensus of the executives!
It was at that time.
“Ugh!”
Pavabak!
Suddenly, Shelford quickly started jabbing his index finger at various parts of Antonio’s body.
Acupuncture.
It was one of Ragnar’s arts, magic sealing.
“Whether you knew about this or not, we’ll find out later. In the meantime, I’ll have to be your hostage.”
Antonio wanted to say something, but his breath caught in his throat as his magic powers wouldn’t budge.
Shelford hoisted him over one shoulder and ran toward the colossus.
Flash! Flash!
Kururur-
The colossus of Krimhild was seen shaking with the continuous beam of light.
Antonio bit his lower lip.
If this continues, the entire floating archipelago will become aware of this situation.
All plans to take the mystery secretly end up in vain.
‘If this continues, I will be punished by my father… …!’
But Antonio’s thoughts did not last long.
Gurrrrrr!
Part of the Colossus of Krimhild was collapsing.

A landmark symbolizing the floating archipelago!
‘Oh, no! No!’
Antonio didn’t know.
That the scream he let out just a moment ago was exactly like Grayna Draw’s.
* * *
“Ohhhhhh! Can’t you stop it?!!”
Boom! Boom!
Draw kicked the ground hard like an excited bull.
Every time Theo flashed his Dragonslayer Sword, Krimhild’s colossus exploded like firecrackers.
Of course, because it was so large, only some of it fell off.
Even so, for the wealthy residents who lived by worshipping the statue of Krimhild as if it were a sacred object, it was no different from blasphemy!
‘How did things turn out like this!’
Theo and his group probably didn’t know.
In fact, the Drow knew it was Ragnar since they arrived on the Floating Isles.
-What? Is that true?
-Yes! I’m sure. Those guys, Ragnar. The ones who killed Slow’s big brother… …the Baek Gap Yonggi-dae guys, I’m sure.
There was a brother who barely managed to escape with his life during the siege of Fort Blanqui and returned home.
They probably thought they were annihilated.
In reality, there was only one person who escaped before a full-scale battle broke out.
So, Ragnar’s people planned this under the oath to kill all of them… … !
Things were getting too complicated.
Could it be that someone who was after mystery would give it up so easily?
It was clearly a bad symbol that if he couldn’t eat it, he would spill it so that others couldn’t eat it either.
On the one hand, I had a slight suspicion that the mysterious giant might be too easily destroyed.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
As I watched the cracks spread throughout the entire statue, I no longer had time to entertain such insolent doubts.
In particular, the part of the sword that was stabbing the evil dragon looked like it would collapse at any moment.
“Why me?”
Theo snorted lightly and swung down the Drake’s blade he was holding in his right hand.
Kwaaaaang!
Knock knock-
Draw was thrown backwards with a sharp pain that felt like his arm was going to fall off.
His eyes twitched.
Because I have never been so outnumbered in my life.
Even my respected brother, Slow, was only a step behind him in terms of strength!

On the other hand, he never thought that Theo, who was small compared to him, would beat him.
Moreover, Theo was only able to deal with him with ‘one’ arm.
‘That’s ridiculous!’
“You guys break the boards as you please, so why should I bother to protect them?”
“This kid has a piercing mouth!”
But Drow couldn’t think for long and charged again.
If you are outnumbered, you should just beat them until you win.
“Draw! We’ll cover you!”
Grado realized that Theo had been hiding his powers all this time, and he and his colleagues began to use magic one after another.
Fireballs rained down from the sky, and vines sprouted from the ground, trying to catch Theo’s feet.
In the blind spot, other inspectors jumped out and attempted to draw and attack together.
<Thunder Calling>
Gulp! Gulp!
But lightning strikes down from the sky and into the middle of the wizards,
“Ahhhh!”
“Magic! He uses magic!”
“Get out of your seat! It’s a designated magic, so just dodge!”
“But then the magic will always go wrong!”
<Dragon’s Claw>
Flash! Flash!
As the beam of light swept across the ground, the battle line became chaotic and it was difficult to approach Theo.
“Damn it!”
“The colossus! The colossus is falling!”
“Do something about that! Someone catch that guy!”
“The crack is getting bigger! Stop it! Do something about the giant!”
‘It’s five minutes before the mess.’
Theo showed his prowess by pushing away the draw with his right hand and striking the Krimhild Colossus with his left, his fangs clearly visible.
“Since it has come to this, let’s spread the word to the entire floating archipelago. ‘Black Skull is trying to destroy Krimhild’s colossus.’”
“… … !”
Only then did Gray realize clearly what Theo was planning.
The guy was trying to turn the tables and make Black Skull a traitor to the Floating Islands!
‘Uh, uh, I have to stop it somehow… … ! But how… … ? Surrender? Should I even surrender… … ?’
Blink!
Quaddukduk-
At that moment, the heat storm that arose from the Dragon Sword swept through Krimhilt’s sword.

Traces left behind, as if a dead evil dragon had risen and was swinging its claws wildly.
and,
Phew! Phew!
Krimhilt’s sword exploded, sending shrapnel flying in all directions.
“… … !”
“… … !”
“Ah, no… … ! The giant… … !”
“Mystery… …!”
Debris crashes down cliffs, shatters walls, and splashes into the sea, adding to the chaos.
Draw and Gray’s minds went blank and they could no longer think of anything.
but,
‘Coming.’
It was clear to Theo.
Paaaaaaa-
Broken Sword of Krimhilt.
The blue light that was leaking out from inside was growing uncontrollably.
It wasn’t for nothing that he was so obsessed with the giant’s sword.
‘A message. There was a hint in it that could unlock the mystery.’
The Dragon Sword wants to return to its original location. Theo focused on this part.
‘The original location. The location where the fake stone sword was.’
The shape of the black dragon sword that Krimhilt is holding now is completely different. In other words, the legend is wrong.
So what happens if we remove the wrong sword as the message says and put a balmung in its place?
‘As the tradition is corrected, the mystery will be revealed.’
The reason why the floating archipelago, which had been worshipping the giant Krimhild as if it were a sacred vessel, had not been able to open the mystery for so long.
Theo threw the Dragon Sword with all his might towards the blue light.
At that moment,
Jeeeeeeing!
[The sleeping <Shinbi> wakes up.]
Hwaaaaak!
A burst of blue light enveloped Theo and the entire surrounding area.
Draw and Gray’s group were also swept away.
‘Here?’
When Theo opened his eyes again, he found himself surrounded by a dense jungle covered in deciduous trees.
A jungle where the ground is muddy and the air is full of moisture, making you feel uncomfortable.
Chirp! Chirp!
Stab- Stab-

The chirping of birds and the croaking of insects could be heard everywhere.
“Hey, what is this?”
“Why did this suddenly appear! Where did the giant go!”
Meanwhile, Black Skull, who was also caught up in the mystery, looked around without coming to his senses.
“gray!”
“Don’t move hastily and wait! We need to assess the situation first.”
Gray thought as he quickly looked around.
‘I was summoned here after being caught in a strange light created by the explosion of the giant. That means… …!’
Only one word comes to mind.
mystery.
“Everyone, wake up! This is the place that our great ancestor Krimhild left for our descendants… …!”
They clenched their fists at the fact that the mystery could be obtained by them and not by outsiders like Ragnar.
Just having Krimhilt’s legitimacy in the hands of the Black Skull, no, in their own gang, the Brotherhood, would allow them to accomplish a lot in the future.
Shh-
Phew!
But, along with the crackling sound from somewhere, my throat suddenly started to feel like it was going to burn. It was hot. I wanted to speak, but I couldn’t get it out.
“Grayeee!”
‘Draw, why are you making that face?’
Gray fell to the floor with that thought in his mind.
Crash!
There was a long spear stuck in the back of the dead guy’s neck.
A bone spear that appears to have been carved from the bone of a large animal.
“It’s a surprise attack! Stop it!”
Drow shouted urgently, not even having time to collect his dead brother’s body.
Shushu shushuk!
At that moment, dozens of bone spears, identical to the ones that killed Gray, poured down from below, filling the sky with color.
It was the beginning of a disaster.
Pupupupu-
“Ahhhhh!”
“S, save me… …!”
“Tei! Come on, Te… … Whew!”
“Shields! Those with shields, put your shields up first!”
The Gang Brotherhood, whose battle lines were already scattered while fighting against Theo, had no choice but to be helpless.
Some fell with as many as four or five spears piercing through them.
grasp!

The draw was made.
To save at least one more brother.
* * *
Phew!
Meanwhile, Theo, unlike his gang mates, was climbing up the tree quickly.
It was to understand the surrounding terrain.
[The ‘Mystery of Krimhilt’ has begun.] [Collect all of Krimhilt’s scattered remains due to the curse of the evil dragon, and place a sword in her hand.]
‘The Curse of the Evil Dragon.’
I had to know exactly what it was.
At that moment, something covering the forest edge caught Theo’s eye.
All over the jungle. Between the swamps. Skeleton soldiers moving busily, hiding secretly.
The problem is,
Choo choo choo choo!
The point was that there were too many.
‘At least thousands… no, it looks like tens of thousands?’
Aside from the area where he was, skeleton soldiers were moving densely throughout the jungle that stretched out to the horizon.
There were various types of military branches, so it seemed like it was a military branch.
There were spearmen, archers, swordsmen, shield bearers, knights on horseback, flying magicians, and even commanders commanding legions.
Dragon’s Tooth Disease.
The legendary legions born from the teeth and bones of dragons were swarming like locusts.
“You want me to find Krimhilt’s remains among them?”
In an instant, cold sweat ran down Theo’s back.
How the bastard of the Return Sword Family lives
