Overgeared

[You guys...! You are rats who live in hiding and always disturb us at every important moment...!!}

The eyes of the top dragon Cubatros was colored a bright red. It was reminiscent of a blazing flame, but the expression that he was shedding tears of blood was more appropriate. Cubatros held more of a grudge than killing intent. The level of the tower members was too high to be angry and have a desire to kill. To be exact, he was reluctant to stimulate Hayate.

Dragon Slayer—he had already killed a dragon once, yet in a contradictory manner, he was excluded from any killing intent. This was the case even when the concept of thoughts were directly linked to strength. He showed no willingness to hurt Cubatros. Thus, he came off even more threatening. He was like a bomb on the verge of exploding.

[Get out of my way!]

Not long ago, Cubatros thought he was very lucky. He was awake just in time and his lair was located in the center of the continent. He sensed the turmoil of five dragons and regarded it as an opportunity to eat.

The willpower of the cloaked dragon, which was divided into hundreds, distorted the area and delayed the time it took to arrive at the scene, but Cubatros was the same rank as the cloaked dragon. He had the potential to break through the maze installed by the cloaked dragon. It was just a matter of time. The moment the willpower of the cloaked dragon faded and the distortions that spread everywhere were erased, Cubatros succeeded in identifying the coordinates of the scene. It was enough to teleport there.

At the moment of jubilation, the tower members appeared and interfered. It was quite intimidating. Sword Saint Biban and martial artist Ken, who made the scales meaningless, were quite annoying. Additionally, Fronzaltz, who had restored the treasure of the giants, clearly reminded him why the giants of the past had to perish.

Hayate... he was the sun among inferior lights.

Cubatros felt tremendous pressure just because Hayate was supporting them from behind.

“We also want to get out of the way,” Hayate opened his mouth. His blond hair fluttered in the howling atmosphere as he was pressured by a Dragon Fear. His clearly revealed face had a deep expression.

“How can we dare to block a dragon’s path? However, we can’t withdraw because we are concerned about a situation where you become much powerful than you are now.”

[...Detestable fellow.]

Cubatros was fortunate to have outstanding discerning eyes. If his hierarchy had been a bit lower, he wouldn’t have recognized Hayate’s humility and would’ve caused an irreversible situation. He would’ve made the mistake of entering a life or death battle.

Hayate’s blue eyes suddenly subsided calmly. “It seems that the blood queen has opened her eyes. Wouldn’t it be better for you to give up at this point?”

[Che...]

Then something amazing happened. The dragon, who covered the moon with his mountain-like body, started to turn around.

Light relief passed over the faces of the tower members, who were holding their breath with great tension.

[You guys... one day, you will definitely pay for your sins.]

It was a curse that would surely come true. Cubatros’s Dragon Words wrapped around the fate of the tower members. This was until it was erased by Hayate’s sword light. “Thank you for your decision.”
