Overgeared

Xenon’s method of recovering his father’s remains was simple. He could’ve shot a Breath as soon as he arrived at his goal. Considering the personality of the tower members who were reluctant to appear before the public, making a big fuss was a method to avoid them.

However, Xenon had no intention of using such an extreme method. He could avoid the tower members by making a fuss, but he would end up catching the eye of the top dragons. He would become a victim himself if he did this. There were many difficulties and limitations in a dragon’s activities.

Xenon planned to do things as quietly and smoothly as possible before returning to his lair. He wanted to block the rumors that a dragon was flying around. This was why he had to rush to make a decision a little while ago.

Xenon couldn’t allow the escape of the vampires. He quickly recognized the artifact triggered by the humans who intruded into the scene and set up a barrier with the rule ‘you can’t leave this space.’ This series of processes was very fast. It was natural since a dragon’s will was realized immediately.

The barrier was unfolded first before the artifact was triggered but it missed. It was because the technique imprinted on the artifact was surprisingly powerful. The one-time artifact turned into dust after it was triggered and the barrier became useless.

'It's a nice flow.'

Dragons had an eye for determining the value of treasures. Xenon regarded the artifact that had just been destroyed as a pretty good thing. By human standards, it was a treasure where a replacement would probably be hard to find. Such a treasure was sacrificed in order to allow the vampires to escape? It was too much to simply be loyalty. It was clear that there was a trick.

‘If it is something that can be done with the vampires...’

It was easy to infer. Vampires were beings that came from Beriache. It was a clan led by ‘Blood Queen’ Marie Rose, Beriache’s most powerful legacy.

‘Is there a way to wake up Marie Rose using the vampires?’

Before Xenon fell asleep, Marie Rose was sealed by Pope Chreshler. However, the seal was actually close to what Marie Rose ‘allowed.’ It was a seal that Marie Rose could leave any time she wanted. Of course, the Curse of Sloth was different. The Curse of Sloth was one of the most powerful curses derived from the gods of the beginning and couldn’t be easily rejected.

Even so, Xenon had a high evaluation of Marie Rose’s potential. Marie Rose was the one whom Beriache, one of the three original evils, gave birth to in order to transcend her. She was likely to be able to temporarily overcome the Curse of Sloth.

‘The situation will become bad if I become hostile to her. I have to go back now.’

The only one Xenon was wary of among the humans and vampires was naturally the Dragon Slayer Hayate. This didn’t mean he looked down on Marie Rose. He had no intention of fighting her, even if she currently wasn’t free. The odds were low and the moment he collided with her, he was more likely to be caught by the tower members.

The moment that Xenon turned back, the spheres circling around him were shot at Asuka. He was going to leave, but he still wanted to punish the intruder. Xenon absurdly wanted to kill the human blocking his way, but he couldn’t kill her.

The Eraser Sword—it was due to the unique rated sword, which had a probability of negating magic, luckily slashing at the sphere. The Eraser Sword was supposedly made around three years ago by Grid, but it was still a new product among the items on the market. Putting aside the unstylish name, the power was excellent. Of course, this was a story of when the anti-magic effect was activated. The chance of triggering it was only 9% and the sword’s attack power wasn’t very high. It was an item that wasn’t good for the Overgeared Guild...

“Hahat! I was lucky!”

Asuke, who felt like her life was shortened by ten years, threw the Dragon Harpoon. It was an item optimized to constrain large monsters. The improved Dragon Harpoon had been distributed in large quantities to the army of the Overgeared Kingdom in recent years and it was relatively easy to obtain.
