YM778.TV Chapter 39
Kicking and punching that monster didn’t work.
Not even his swords worked against him.
If he stayed around any longer, he was sure to be captured.
‘I have to run away!’
-Magic Sword: Wings of Heatwave!
Fiery wings sprouted on his back.
Using the flames, Alejandro flew like a rocket.
“Huh? He can also fly in the sky?”
Han-bin laughed as he looked at the soaring middle-aged man.
“Magic Swordsmanship really has so much to offer.”
Alejandro didn’t think Ryu Han-bin would be able to attack him from the sky, considering he wasn’t an Aura user.
But back in the Rocky Mountain, many of the Demon Dogs he fought could fly.
And Han-bin had hunted many of those Demon Dogs, too.
How was it possible?
“Stone is a long-established weapon from prehistoric times.”
He picked up a stone at his feet and just threw it up.
Throwing stones wasn’t something extraordinary, but it was a different story when Han-bin was the one doing it.
Breaking the sound barriers, the stone accurately hit Alejandro in the air.
Saaaash!
Bang!
“Uuugh!”
The middle-aged man stumbled midair.
However, he was still level 75. It wasn’t enough to make him crash.
“Not to worry. I still have a lot of stones.”
Stones began to fly through the air in quick succession.
Even if he was only throwing stones, it packed more firepower than a lot of high-ranking magic.
Saaash Saaaash! Saaaash!
“Uh! Ugh! Aaargh!”
Eventually, Alejandro began to fall to the ground.
It was when Han-bin was leisurely waiting for his opponent’s fall.
“C-come here!”
Alejandro called the Wyvern.
The Wyvern stopped circling around and quickly swooped in to catch him.
“Ah, I forgot about that one.”
Han-bin didn’t really care, however.
[Race: Wyvern. Lv. 27]
Alejandro, a level 75 Magic Swordsman, could only take four hits before he fell.
The Wyvern wasn’t even half his level.
Han-bin continued throwing a barrage of stones, all aimed at the monster.
However, Wyverns were known for their agility.
It folded its wings and began to avoid the stones swiftly and elegantly.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
It showed amazingly sophisticated evasion maneuvers, avoiding all the stones.
“Huh?”
He threw a few more stones, but the result was the same.
Everything missed.
‘What, that Wyvern?’
Speechless, Ryu Han-bin pulled out a throwing dagger.
He took his time aiming before throwing the dagger at it.
Paaang!
The dagger became a flashed towards the Wyvern.
Its speed and accuracy were far superior compared to stones because it was designed and crafted.
Yet, it still missed its target.
The Wyvern dove down and glided, then immediately spread its wings to use it as air breaks, before finally flying away.
“Wow…….”
Han-bin’s mouth was hanging wide open.
He knew the Wyvern was an enemy, but he couldn’t help but admire its incredible maneuvers.
He wasn’t even able to hit it once.
It didn’t have a high level, but it was definitely unexpectedly fast.
Ryu Han-bin had a serious look on his face.
“How do I drop that?”
* * *
Resting on the Wyvern’s back, Alejandro sighed with relief.
‘It saved me…’
He didn’t expect it, but the Wyvern did amazingly well.
With fresh admiration, he looked at Wyvern.
He felt lucky to have picked up an adequately trained object.
‘Where the hell did it come from, and what was it doing in the Satt forest?’
He had lived in this world for decades.
He had met all kinds of monsters that could fly.
However, he was confident the Wyvern was the first one he’d seen that could fly excellently.
‘With this Wyvern’s skills…’
Alejandro’s face has changed.
Initially, he was thinking of running away without looking back.
However, with the discovery of the Wyvern’s flying ability, the situation had changed.
‘It’s an opportunity to counterattack, Fufufuh!’
He would leave the evasion to this guy, and he could just bombard the Warrior from the skies.
He gave orders through a magical gag.
“Fly!”
Effir, the Wyvern, was frightened.
‘Eh? Isn’t he running away?’
The stones terrified Effir.
Just having them zoom past her felt like she was going to die.
She cried as she tried to avoid all of the projectiles as best as she could. She had no choice.
‘This crazy guy!’
However, as long as the gag was chained on her, Effir had no choice.
The Wyvern folded its wings and began to descend to the ground.
As the distance narrowed, Alejandro performed Magic Swordsmanship.
-Magic Sword: Flowing Star!
Flashes of light poured from the sky.
-Magic Sword: Sky Lightning
Thick lightning strikes fell one after another.
Even Ryu Han-bin could not ignore those techniques.
He tried hard to avoid and fought back.
“Please, only one hit!”
He was throwing stones, trees, and rocks.
“Damn it! Why can’t I get one clean hit in?!”
The Wyvern elegantly avoided all of his attacks.
The Wyvern was more challenging to deal with than Alejandro.
Han-bin looked at Artis.
“Artis! Can’t you use magic to intercept that?”
“My magic spells have long ranges, but none of them can reach that far.”
“Tsk!”
Ryu Han-bin was clicking his tongue when he suddenly saw a necklace on the ground.
It was one of Alejandro’s pieces of equipment that he eagerly grabbed a while ago.
All of them were healing artifacts, but the necklace had a different performance.
[Polymorph Necklace (Unique Item)]
‘I hope this works!’
He quickly picked up the Polymorph Necklace.
It was a Unique Item.
There was no level limit.
That meant even Ryu Han-bin could use it.
He immediately activated it and aimed it at Artis.
“Did it work? Can you go back to your Dragon form now?”
“The effect is gone!”
He knew what Ryu Han-bin was aiming for.
Artis quickly took the form of a red Dragon again.
He then inhaled deeply.
It was impossible with magic, but the Dragon Breath could reach that Wyvern!
Gaaaaarrrrhhh!
The Fire Dragon’s Breath heated the atmosphere.
However, it still wasn’t enough.
Sloop!
The Wyvern broadly avoided it.
Han-bin scolded Artis.
“Are you an idiot? It flies so well. There’s no way you can get it with such a slow breath!”
“Wasn’t this what you wanted?”
Artis was confused.
Why did he want him to turn back into a Dragon?
At that time, Han-bin jumped behind Artis’ back.
He then shouted.
“Fly, Artis!”
“…….”
The red Dragon didn’t fly.
Instead, he sighed deeply.
He immediately understood his friend’s mistake.
“Hey, Han-bin.”
“What?”
“I can’t fly in the sky.”
Bewildered, Ryu Han-bin couldn’t believe what he heard.
“What do you mean you can’t fly? Are those wings just decorations?”
Artis protested.
“Hey! Young chicks can’t fly even though they already have wings! My wings just haven’t matured enough yet!”
Artis was only 150 years old.
He looked like an adult, but it was just because his mental age had risen while living among humans, but he was still just a teenage boy as a Dragon.
“No wonder your wings are so small!”
Han-bin clicked his tongue and got off the back of Artis.
He then pointed at the sky.
“Then throw me up there! Can you do that?”
“Oh, yeah, sure I can.
With the power of a Dragon, it could throw one person high enough in the sky.
Combined with Ryu Han-bin’s immense power, there was no way he would be hurt if he fell to the ground.
Artis grabbed Han-bin’s waist and threw him into the air.
“Taats!”
However, Han-bin flew towards the opposite way the Wyvern was turning.
Alejandro blinked in confusion.
‘What is he doing?’
It was due to the throw.
“Where are you aiming, you idiot!”
“Sorry, sorry!”
In Dragon form, he couldn’t use his front feet as well as he could in human form.
Artis’s throw was definitely flawed. He couldn’t use the same throwing technique Han-bin used.
“Hahaha! Die, you bastard!”
Alejandro laughed cheerfully and continued to bombard them.
He would lose if they got closer. There was no problem if he was out of reach.
Flowing Star poured out, and Sky Lightning was continuously released.
Bang! Bang! Rumble!
Both Ryu Han-bin and Artis had to flee to avoid the attacks.
Compared to Wyvern’s flying skills, Alejandro’s bombing was not so sophisticated that it was manageable to avoid.
However, it was impossible to keep avoiding them forever.
In a hurry, Ryu Han-bin threw anything he could get his hands on at the Wyvern.
“Hump! Hump! Huuump!”
As he continued to throw a giant tree and a boulder, Artis exclaimed.
“You aim so well even though you’re just throwing random items!”
“That’s because I had a lot of practice!”
He had the confidence to hit his target regardless of what he had thrown at it.
However, the Wyvern was too good at dodging.
‘Wait? Anything?’
Ryu Han-bin came up with another idea.
There was one thing he hadn’t thrown yet.
He grabbed the red Dragon’s tail.
Artis turned its head in confusion.
“What are you going to do?”
Han-bin laughed.
“Change of plans.”
Why should the Dragon do the throwing?
He could just throw the Dragon instead.
“Huuummmmp!”
The muscles of his entire body swelled up as he gathered as much strength as he could.
Using his tremendous power, he threw the massive Dragon into the air effortlessly.
“Go, Artis!”
“Uwaaaargh!”
Artis, who always used flowery and formal words, couldn’t stop himself from cursing.
“Hey, you motherfucker!”
* * *
The Wyvern’s evasive maneuver was still perfect.
Just by turning lightly, it lightly avoided the Dragon flying towards it.
However, it got the Dragon close enough for his magic spells to reach the Wyvern and its rider.
“Ah, that Han-bin bastard!”
With his teeth shaking, Artis focused his mind.
Now that he had been thrown, the only choice he had was to do his part.
‘If I don’t, he might throw me again!’
He chanted the magic spell and aimed it at the Wyvern.
“Chain Lightning!”
The magic wasn’t particularly powerful.
A level 30 magic spell was nothing compared to a high-ranking Magic Swordsman like Alejandro.
However, he had a different objective in mind.
Chain lightning had a homing effect.
Jig!
The chain of lightning followed the Wyvern wherever it went until it hit the monster’s tail.
Zaaaaap!
The electrocuted monster lost its consciousness and began to fall to the ground.
Alejandro muttered in confusion.
“How’s that possible using such a low-level spell?”
However, he soon came to a realization.
No matter how excellent its flying skills were, the Wyvern’s level was only 27.
A level 30 lightning spell was more than enough to make it pass out.
“Damn!”
Clicking his tongue, Alejandro kicked Wyvern’s back.
As he glided down, he performed another Magic Swordsmanship technique.
-Magic Sword: Wings of Heatwave!
He was going to focus on running away.
But Ryu Han-bin was faster than that.
“Don’t even think about escaping!”
He jumped up all the way to the opponent’s face.
A devastating cleave slashed through Alejandro’s chest.
-Vertical cut!
His blood soon became rain pouring down and dyeing the ground red, while his scream became high-pitched thunder.
“Ahhhhhh!”
