Raven's gaze was drawn to the guy in front of him. He hadn't even attempted to speak when he felt a burn on his right temple.He was horrified to find that the individual on the bed have not yet budged in the slightest.Extremely difficult!Is this man actually a ghost?There was nobody else in the room when he looked around.His face received yet another blow. The slap's force was so great that it caused him to crash against the tavern's entrance.His nose was bleeding, and blood was oozing from his lips.Nonetheless, he rose to his feet and stared menacingly at the guy on the bed."Fuck it!" Raven let out a yell. He began to summon his powers. On each of his palms, a little magical circle blazed, with runes strewn around.Flames exploded from his palms and coated his entire body as the spell was activated.I observed as the invader transformed into some kind of burning man. It was particularly amusing."If you do that, my room will catch fire. And I don't want anybody to notice, so
Every single person that vanished shared the same birth month!The world's calendar was weird. I don't even know the names of all the 12 months. But I am aware that every single person who has gone missing was born in the month of the dragon..There were certain stories to the effect that anybody born during the dragon's month would have a very little portion of dragon blood. Of course, the different academies and magical towers have since revealed all of it to be false."There's an issue."My unfathomable understanding informs me that some evil clan or cult is hatching some nefarious plots."Master."Wise phoned at that precise moment."Have you discovered anything?""Yes, we have.""Tell me.""The Red Light City has been running under the pretext of a brothel city all these years to gather ladies with some specific qualities.""I, too, have arrived at that conclusion. Every one of the missing women was born in the month of the dragon," I remarked."We actually tracked down the offen
I prefer to accomplish things on my own.I've been doing things this way since I first came to this planet. I started to quit doing everything by myself only after receiving my summons.Furthermore, it saved time.However, for the most critical matters, I would handle them myself. They were still monsters, regardless of how adept my summons was, and they had little knowledge of how human minds function.The Azure Dragons had three underground bases.It so happened that the person whose memory I stole had visited the covert facility where all the women who were born during the month of the dragon were taken and imprisoned.It was all by chance and coincidence.I discovered the precise location of the base, the defences put in place there, and the personnel watching it through the person's memories.Niara had just been taken away from her family for a day. The likelihood that nothing had yet occurred to her was still quite high. Perhaps she is unaware that she has been abducted by an un
The old man with white hair had shown up.[Zarok Azure Dragon - A-rank, 3rd circle]I only had to take one look at him to assess him, and his strength matched the memories. The third circle seems to have been the old man's prison for a very long time.Zarok, an A-rank fighter who belonged to the Azure Dragon family's older generation, served as the base's administrator.The old man's face was outraged as he fastened his gaze on me, his eyes glistened with violent intentions."A rat dares to come here!"The air echoed with a voice that was a little raspy. Zarok unleashed a strike out of nowhere, his form quickly shifting. He travelled several meters in less time than it took me to take a breath before he was in front of me."The Fist of the Golden Dragon!" He roared.He didn't employ a skill, but rather a technique. Mages utilize spells with their mana, whereas warriors or knights employ techniques with their mana.The majority of the time, the method employed by knights or warriors ar
I gave the old guy a glance.I didn't anticipate him to start clapping all of a sudden.Pa, pa, pa!Clapping his hands, the old man gave me a curious look as he turned to face me. He chuckled and remarked, "Quite excellent, very good! Your proficiency with a sword is amazing! If I'm not incorrect, you've already begun to explore sword intent, and it won't be long before you've mastered it."All of my excitement about battling a real opponent vanished. Even the distinction between sword intent and sword aura eluded this elderly guy. He was under the impression that I was enhancing the sword's intent with my aura.If sword intent corresponds to B-rank power, sword aura corresponds to A-rank power."One with the sword" is the name given to the last sword intent variation. In terms of power, it was similar to the S-rank.I recognized the old man from Number 11's memories. If the earlier old guy served as the secret base's commander or supervisor, this guy, a 4th circle specialist, was its
The mobility skill of Aamon was not even close to the Disaster tier.Slam! Thump! Bang!Wham!Crumble!The burning dragon aura, which was orange in colour, and the normal aura, which was blue in colour, were continually swirling in the air as we traded blows, backed by a concussive eruption of aura.Aamon's eyes became increasingly wide as the battle continued. The edge their family possessed over regular soldiers or knights appeared to evaporate in the presence of this guy.They always had the upper hand in combat thanks to their orange Burning Dragon aura, which was ranked higher than regular aura.Aamon was unaware that my strikes were also augmented by other factors besides aura. Every time I traded blows with him, I activated Super-Enhance and Ultra-Amplify.Damn, I would already be defeated if I were a common knight or warrior. I swore.This world is incredibly unjust.The might of these unique lineages was too great for common soldiers to defeat.Not to add that thanks to all t
Throughout the base, there was a strong stench of burnt flesh. Many times I felt like throwing up because of it. The base would have been plastered with puke if I hadn't become accustomed to such things.It was advantageous that I had such a powerful flame. In a handful of minutes, my pure fire consumed every drop of blood and every corpse. It took nearly a minute to completely burn to ashes all of the bodies since there were so many of them.The nasty odour has also vanished. The once-reddened, blood-stained secret base was now completely black, burned, and all of the structures had been reduced to ashes.I eventually entered the jail and opened the cages."Go outside!"There were no reassuringly soothing words said. I scowled and yelled at the individuals still cowering in the cages."Those who refuse to leave the cages will die shortly!""Ahh!""Run!"The shrieks persisted.Everyone instantly exited the cages and stood in front of me without my having to prod them again. They were
"Has she responded back?" With a groan, I inquired.I might have forgotten about her if it hadn't been for the fact that my so-called fiancée was quite the beauty.To be honest, I was fairly foolish back then. Why couldn't I just take care of her enemies instead of becoming her fiance and save myself all this trouble?Err… However, she had seduced several guys, making it difficult to get rid of them all.Forget about it. That's all there is to it."Yes! She promised to arrive in a month. She also stated that due to their family's quest for a crystal mine, she had been and would continue to be occupied for at least another month.""Alright." I nodded."A crystal mine?"Undoubtedly, both that daughter and her father are ambitious.I did the math in my brain. I should have ample time to care for Count Zerome in a month. It was perfect.But I have to tread carefully. The foundation and history of the Azure Dragon family were strong and profound."Mother, I have to go see if the young girl
