Chapter 92
I went and put the sli in an armlock.
The Sli’s spikes dug into my scales and pierced my muscle.
Still, I kept my arms tight around the spiky ball.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the spikey ball’s outer layer.
It seems he ford a mouth in order to speak…
“What do you think you’re doing?”
It’s a sha I don’t have the ability speak in the human language, so I can’t answer him.
It’s not like I was going to answer anyway, though.
While holding the sli, I ran towards the cliff and started flying.
When I flew up high, I detected a weak life signature (E.N. On my sensors, in my spaceship), which I promptly looked at.
I could see a girl with orange, braided hair, holding a cane as tall as herself.
If I’m not mistaken, she is an [Elfling hyuma], and her na is Mariel.
She looked at with her mouth wide agape.
What?
Is she pursuing ?
It doesn’t look like it, but what else could she be doing out here?
Anyway, she is not an enemy, I understand that much.
Whatever her reason for being here, it’s fine.
If she is just going to watch the fight from the sidelines, there is nothing I need to do about her.
The Black Lizard is over there too, she is looking at while whimpering, obviously worried about .
Ah, seems that braided girl run into each other
After all, Black Lizard is still worn out from the fight before.
There is no helping it – I’m currently living in the forest. Eventually they will send soone to subdue , whether its the swordsman or the magician from before.
After all, [Dragon scale powder] is really a fearso ability. However, being accustod to life in the forest with my companions… I don’t want to abandon it.
‘Oi, what are you thinking, Evil Plague Dragon!’, shouted the sli.
I’ll ignore it and fly even higher. Midways, I felt fatigued and started to beco unsteady.
The sli’s needles which struck my body were retracting and extending repeatedly.
Hey sli guy, you sure you don’t want to use [mana drain] or [life drain] instead?
During the flight, I felt that his actual strength is only as strong as a kid.
This is might be the highest altitude I can reach. Next, I dove straight down as fast as I could.
We are exactly above the cliff right now.
It’s too late to pull back now.
I am no longer worthy of being called by the na Milla gave , all because of this monster.
Being called by that na, seems I’ll be forced to break my promise with Gregory (T.L. ???)
In this forest, in which I live with the Red Monkeys and the Black Lizard, there is no place for his sli.
‘Ha! You’re going to throw to the bottom of the cliff again? It’s the sa move as before. Do you actually think I’m going to let you do it?’
The sli kept retracting and extending his needles, stabbing all over my body.
Damn! At this rate, my HP will drop into the danger zone.
This guy’s physical attacks aren’t too strong, though. I have to endure!
‘In this position, you won’t be able to throw down! Sorry to disappoint you! Although If you didn’t stand in my way I wouldn’t have to kill you. Welp, anyways, that one ti deal has expired! Thanks to this position, I can attack as much as I like! …! I never thought after Little Rock Dragon, I could also get an Evil Plague Dragon! Don’t worry, I will put all of your skill to good use! With your [Dragon scale powder], I could even destroy that little village along with the monsters around it!’ said the sli proudly.
As for , being tangled like this is also kind of lucky. My only worry – that he might try to escape – has disappeared.
That pride of his has dug his grave. I don’t think there would be anyone to save him now.
‘Oi, what’s so funny, why’re you laughing?’
As I put more strength in my grip, [Paralyzing claw] halted the sli’s actions, and I continued to dive towards the cliff.
Seeing as you managed to avoid [Star drop] with a spider web, lets see how you fare against [Nutcracker], a far more direct attack.
Being pressed firmly to my body, there wouldn’t be any possibility of avoiding a direct hit.
Since I flew quite high, there is also quite a distance from the bottom of the cliff.
A fall from this height would still cause severe damage, even with his damage mitigation skills.
‘What! Stop!… Are you also planning to throw yourself along to the bottom of the cliff!? If that’s so, not only , but you will also receive collateral damage! Not even you will be okay if you slam towards that raging stream! Stop, Stop!…’
Certainly, the river below has an amazing, unholdable current.
Even using the sli as a cushion during the impact, the shockwave will reverberate along him and into my body. I will receive a huge damage one way or another.
Since I won’t have any energy to fly afterwards, I’ll just get washed away with the currents.
I won’t know what will happen next.
I might die, or I might get washed to the middle of nowhere, or perhaps I’m going to be stranded nearby.
But that village won’t be endangered by the sli since I already took so asure to prevent the villagers from going to the forest. That village won’t need to live in a fear of an Evil Plague Dragon, too.
‘Okay, okay! I admit, it’s my defeat… I won’t go near that village anymore – I will also leave the forest! So please…’
In the form of a ball of spikes, the sli frantically pleaded for his own life.
…
Like hell I’ll believe that!
This guy will just return and cause disaster again, once he gained or surpassed my level of strength, if I let him live.
‘No, Stop! Stooop! Stoooooop…………!’
‘I can’t die in a place like this! Stoooop……!’
The sli got out of shape, the several mouth ford and start to speak nonsense to every direction
Ignoring it, I focused on the river below and aid at one of the rocks visible on the river.
‘Gyaaa! NOT IN THIS PLACE.!!!!’
The sli spewed his spider thread towards the wall of the cliff.
It seems he tried to reduce our falling speed by pulling us up, and reduce the falling damage we would both incur.
‘Make it in ti!… Make it in ti!…’
When it managed to reach the wall I just used one of my claws to cut the sli’s thread
(E.N. Well, that’s painfully easy, isn’t it?)
‘YOU! STOP! STOOOOP! STTTOOOOOOP! IRUSHIAAAAAA…….’
I changed my positioning, and pushed the sli down with both my hands towards the rock.
My HP will receive significant damage. If this attack goes well, I will be able to avoid direct impact.
Though in this position I won’t be able to accelerate well, It might provide so relief for the sli. (E.N. Wait wat)
‘Stop ! I will do absolutely for you to stop! I… Stop!…… No matter what! …….Whatever you want……. STOP!’
The mouths started saying various words repeatedly and randomly.
But because of that, what he actually said was inaudible to .
‘NO! STOP! NOT IN THIS PLACE! I CAN’T DIE! GOD! YOU PROMISED A…’
T.L. (sound effect) [A big badda boom].
Now that the sli has been smashed into smithereens by using the falling speed and my body weight, his words ceased to be heard at all.
The rock also crumbled into small pieces of debris.
My claws were cracked, and severe pain could be felt piercing from both of my hands.
So that my body wouldn’t get slamd into the rock, I used my leg to brace for the impact.
The scales on my leg shattered and I felt the bones got distorted, heavilly.
But it was worth it – I managed to repel my body into the air.
Relieved at the mont, the recoil from the sli’s tentacle remained, which still stuck to my body. It pulled towards the remnants of the rock
`Gu~uga~a~tsu!’
Because of that, I hit my head and I felt my conciousness darken.
Starting from my feet, my whole body started to get swallowed by the intense current.
The sli’s remains, which stuck to my body, slowly ca off.
This was the last thing I felt before I lost my conciousness.

This transmission is for code ‘alpha-oga-epsilon’. I am evading callsign ‘beta-beta-alpha’. If any federation cells are within reach, I will be availiable at the following co-ordinates [Redacted], for short bursts of information transfer that will contain so of the decoded material. This will happen every week or two from now on, I hope. to et operational criteria, HQ must bring the new recruits up to speed, because I am not a reliable source of work for decoding these papers. My situation is far too perilous.
Find the ‘bladed dragons’, and any other rcenaries that will be willing to help. This war hinges on our ability to decode these docunts. I would recomnd initiating protocal ‘XEIYSAIYEXUBF” [Decoding failed. Manual input nescessary].
Godspeed, gentlen. Let not the Empire of Man devour your ambitions. We will have our freedom!
