Chapter 1.4

Nozomu is working part-time at the commercial district depot the next day.

There is no companion today, and the Boss is asking him to organize and record the cargo in the depot area. After confirming the cargo that going to be transported, he reported to the Boss, the Boss has something to tell and called Nozomu,

"By the way, Nozomu, have you heard of a hunter seeing a dragon in the forest the other day?"

"Dragon ...?"

Dragon.

The strongest existence on this continent.

It is one of the spirit species and boasts tremendous power.

It seems that some people who once defeated the dragon had gained its power.

This existence called dragon slayer does not exist at present time, and it only remains in history textbooks and legends.

"But, what is a legendary dragon doing near such a city?"

"I think so, perhaps the dragon is just a misunderstanding. Well, you often go to the forest, you should consider it even if it's "Lng" (TL: Chinese Dragon)."

When He said that, the Boss laughed with a smile.

Unlike Dragons, "Lng"s are a type of demon beast.

Its power is not as strong as the dragon, and the intelligence is low, but it is a very big threat to humans.

Its power is definitely one of the highest in the category of demon beasts.

Certainly, no matter how I think about it, I can't win.

"I understand. I'll be careful."

I thanked the Boss and went home to go to Shish's place.

=============================================

Nozomu goes home, prepares his sword, and heads for his master's hut.

He uses minimum clothing of demon beast skins that don't hinder movement, a knife and a pouch attached to the belt, a set of treatment tools such as potions in a pouch, a smokescreen ball, a sound ball, and a deep charge ball.

As the name suggests, the smokescreen ball generates a smokescreen, and the sound ball makes a surprisingly loud noise, and hopefully, weak monsters can be repelled. Finally, a deep charge ball. This is a thing that shoots thunder that is comparable to the upper-tier magic around the thrown area, and the price is correspondingly high.

Since He has such low basic ability, and the number of times he can use powerful Qi technique is limited due to his Ability Suppression, so he bought it just in case.

Even if the effects of strengthening items that affect him are suppressed in this way, the power of items that do not depend on one's own abilities is not suppressed, so he always brings it with him when he goes to the forest.

On the way to Shino's hut, the fog came out, so he speeded up a little.

The fog gradually became thicker and could not see even 1 meter away.

"This is bad."

Nozomu muttered, and when he saw the compass that he had on hand did not point in a certain direction, he turned around.

"What does this mean."

There are certainly many demon beasts in this forest, but they don't have the characteristics that would make the compass go crazy.

When He feels impatient with the abnormal situation, He took a deep breath and calmed down, and looked around again.

The trees are overgrown and he can use them for hiding, but it is not a place where he can rest with peace of mind.

"Is it unavoidable to stay here for the time being?"

For the time being it is necessary to secure a safe place, so he walked around marking the passing trees with a knife so as not to get lost.

After a while, he seemed to go through the forest, the trees were gone, and he came to an open place.

It seems that the fog has gradually begun to dissipate.

As he was relieved, the surrounding scenery suddenly became distorted.

"Eh?"

The next moment, he is standing in a strange place.

Surrounded by mountains, it is a barren land as far as the eye could see.

Definitely not around Arcazam.

A huge shadow covered him who was confused.

The moment he wondered what was going on, Nozomu become speechless.

A huge black object covered half of the sky.

It has 6 large wings with 5 colors and it flaps firmly.

It has jet-black scales, and its profoundness seems to symbolize the years it has lived.

Its eyes embraced the darkness of the abyss and stared at the tiny man on the ground.

It is all the embodiment of despair.

"Dragon King Tiamat"

A heretical dragon among the feared heretics who even eat the dragons of the same race.

It was a legendary dragon that disappeared from the ground more than 5,000 years ago.

Nozomu stood with a stunned expression.

He can't understand his current situation.

If you think about it normally, no matter how many demon beasts appear, you never think of encountering a legendary dragon right in front of your eyes and nose in the city where you live.

He is confused, but in fact, this space is a tentative world between the real world and the spirit world (where the spirits live), created to seals
