Never Die Extra-Chapter 462

Chapter 462

The Great Ancient Wizard finds a DoYoSe and Shells (1)

[I was left with a waste of time to deal with, but the rodents defiled the honor of the race and held hands with the nasty winged things.]

[It’s a disgrace to our great race. I don’t even want to be called a dragon because of these worms, so I’m just going to clean everything up here.]

―Ha! Here come the dirty ones that hold hands with the king of worms!

―What a shame!

Were all of the dragons’ intellect concentrated only when they’re blabbering? Finally, a group of dragons from Middle Earth and a group of dragons from the Spirit World confronted each other with their mouths wide open.

[Protect me, Mother Earth…]

In the meantime, Fayna pulled out quietly—very quietly. Aside from the dragons busy keeping each other in check, it was natural for the Demons to notice her movements, but strangely, no one paid attention to Fayna. The reason was simple. The Succubae sent to the South in advance had carried out extensive mental magic on them. Thanks to that, there were no escapees among the Demons.

[I’m, I’m out…]

“Good job, Fayna. It was a perfect mission.”

Fayna safely escaped the battlefield, flew to the safe zone, and joined Evan. Her expression grew a little sharp when she saw Evan welcoming her with a soft expression.

[As an apostle to the tremendous and benevolent Mother Earth, I could not feel your soul in the utterance just now. Are you an undead by any chance?]

“Should I cry and prove my innocence?”

[These days, the undead must have a tear function attached!]

Fayna was evidently very upset. It was natural that she was anxious because she set up a fight between the gods and the demons. She fell for Evan’s plausible words, and somehow the situation came this far, but if she thought about it carefully, she had betrayed all the Divines!

“Calm down. This won’t hurt Mother Earth.”

[Don’t tell me you’re using the disciples of the Divines to screw over all the gods; there will never be a human-like you again.]

“God and man have always had an interesting relationship.”

[You’re expressing it very pleasantly…I have nothing to say about how the gods treat humans.]

“You don’t have to be bothered. I know that the Great Mother Earth tends to think of humans.”

[Zero, you’re…why do you know so much about the gods?]

Evan looked up without answering her question. The clash of the dragons was just beginning.

―It’s us who protect this land!

―This world is ours, ours!

[Greedy things, locked up in a small land, don’t even appreciate true power!]

[We’ll show you that! The price is your life!]

Dragons on both sides dissed each other in unison! It was so spectacular to see their colored breaths spewing out and dying the sky.

―Argh! Argh!

―Come on, you damn dragons! If you want to fight, go somewhere else!

―Devilllllll!

And in the aftermath of the dragon’s breaths, the Demons were melting. It wasn’t just a shrimp fighting a whale. They were being swept away like an ant’s nest in a stream of water from a rubber hose.

“Every minute is a great scene; this is a Dragon’s Breath showcase. There are very few places where you can see so many kinds at once.”

[If that Dragon’s Breath faces us at all…]

“Then we can get rid of it.”

[Oh, yeah.]

There was a human next to her who knew how to get rid of a Dragon’s Breath, so Fayna decided to watch the situation with a calm mind. It was spectacular. It was hard to see this kind of scene where the Dragon’s Breath continued for five minutes.

…Maybe after today, they would never see it anywhere else.

“Huh, one of the Ten Demons is already dead.”

[What are you going to do?]

“Like this.”

Evan stretched his power to the ground and dug a tunnel on the spot. In an instant, he drilled through hundreds of meters, and the demon was swept away by the Dragon’s Breath…more accurately, the Ninth of Ten Demons fell through the hole. He remote-controlled the body with Annihilation, forcing it to come back to him.

“All right, I didn’t get caught.”

It was pitiful to watch the Demons fail to even recognize the body of their superior falling right next to them into a tunnel. Long live the Succubus.

[So why don’t you deal with them yourself with this power…]

The Ninth Demon, fortunately, activated the demon armament before he died, so he had a massive shield. Was it possible to collect it? Surprisingly, it was.

“Oh, my! I can’t believe he left such a wonderful thing behind.”

[…That shield, I’m a little jealous. The only flaw is that it’s made up of Dark Magic.]

Interpreting the shield’s pattern might give Raihan some unique armor. Unfortunately, however, the environment in which unique armor could be made was limited to the new generation. Furthermore, it could be firmly stated that it was impossible to create a unique armor for Raihan, as the person who would use it must participate in the production of the armor.

“I should at least deliver this.”

[I don’t know who you’re going to give it to, but you’re going to have to work hard to shake off the magic that’s firmly imprinted on the armor itself.]

“He’s trained in Dark Magic tolerance, so it’s okay.”

[I just realized that humans could be magically resistant thanks to you, Zero…you’re human, right?]

“I thought you said I was an undead.”

[Cry and prove your innocence!]

He was a sacred force and didn’t bother with Dark Magic to upgrade his shield. If it were a shield made of Dark Magic, he would receive an advantage in stopping them. If Raihan picked this up, he would be able to handle an army of demons! While Evan imagined happiness, he stopped and came back to the battlefield.

―Argh! Argh!

Another one of the Ten Demons, the Seventh Demon Karaeri, who was guarding the battlefield, was beaten to death by a stray Dragon’s Breath while trying to escape with a group of demons! Indeed, Seventh Karaeri was praiseworthy for not being affected by the mental magic of the Succubus, but the ending was still so clumsy.

The dragons of this world had been seriously injured while fighting against the ones from the Spirit Realm before they arrived, which caused them to die in a silly way while rushing to retreat. And surprisingly, this left none of the Ten Demons on the field. Evan also recovered Seventh Demon’s body among the howling enemies.

“Well, the guy without a name is different. He’s in a lot better shape than the other one was.”

The Ninth Demon used to say, “The Tenth Demon? He’s the weakest of all the Ten Demons,” but he quickly ended his life as the weakest because Cattleya didn’t appear in the game! At least the Seventh Demon resisted the mental magic, but you could tell the difference roughly by the fact that the Ninth Demon died helplessly.

“Let’s just say he left his shield instead of his name. The important thing right now is Karaeri. The demon armor he handles is quite delicate.”

[Unusual. The armor is still moving even though the body is already dead.]

The upper ranks also dealt with quite a unique armor, but the Seventh Demon’s armor was special in a different sense. That’s because what he handled was an auxiliary armament. Three black boomerangs were spinning slowly around the body. He always wore this around him, which allowed him to hit four consecutive times, which consisted of his main body attack and three boomerang attacks.

It was still slowly circling the body rather than attacking the enemy who dragged the body of his master freely. Of course, it would attack if Evan tried to hit the body, but it was nonsense at this point.

[How do you collect this, Zero?]

“I’ve been thinking about it in many ways, but judging from my experience of collecting quite a lot of armaments so far—”

For now, with the power of Annihilation, the three boomerangs were caught immaculately. They tried to move somehow when the inhibition was applied, but Evan held them tight so that they couldn’t.

“And then…”

In that state, Evan used his power of Annihilation to turn the Seventh Demon’s body into powder. It was crushed up, leaving no trace.

“If you want to collect demon armors, it’s best to get rid of everything else.”

[Is it…? I…I guess so.]

The boomerangs that managed to detect the movement to harm their owners tried to vibrate again but couldn’t do anything because of Evan’s Annihilation power. Eventually, they ran out of energy and fell to the ground immediately after the body was destroyed. Evan looked at them carefully and exclaimed.

“Interesting. Was it moving in response to the Dark Magic left in the body? Then I think we can manipulate them by sacrificing Dark Magic.”

[Clearly, that’s a pretty funny idea…no, what are we doing here right now?]

Come to think of it; the dragons were still fighting on one side. Evan had been focusing on the armor and took care of the three boomerangs. He put them in his inventory pocket before raising his head.

―Grand Icicle!

[Hell Fire!]

―Earthquake!

The dragons, tired of spewing out Dragon’s Breaths, were finally entering a magical scramble to unleash colorful magic! A feast of ancient magic that could only be seen in the divine world! Icicles filled the sky, the black sun devouring it appeared, and the great earth was spreading its arms to devour the dragons that set foot on the ground. Evan would have been thrilled if he could see this with Belois.

‘I’m seriously sick, too. I think about them every time I get a chance.’

Belois, Arisha, Serena, Shine, Raihan. Shine’s Fiancée Anastasia. Sometimes the members of the junior group. There were times when he even missed Louise, who was half-forced to become his disciple. He missed his parents, his older brother, and his cute sister. When he thought of Bernard, he felt like he was going to cry a little, and he missed the smile of Elf Illoin, calling him a friend. The daughter of the two was also a precious disciple to him.

What about Diona, the bunny girl who grumbled at Evan’s work every time, but played the role of a secretary? Looking at the witch children who were still training hard, he could see the witches who came out of the witch village and settled in Sherden. The owner of Brotherhood Skewers, who always said that he was ready to cook for Evan whenever he wanted, and Horta and the Dwarf Ella, who were active as exclusive blacksmiths of the Astray Knights.

…And he thought someone else was very precious, but he didn’t remember very well.

[…Zero, why are you making that sad face when you see this terrible disaster? What the hell was going on where you were born?]

Gosh, he was lost in reminiscence thinking of precious people, so a minor misunderstanding occurred. Evan tried to ignore Fayna, who looked at him with an expression of half-horror. He coughed loudly, then he turned to the battlefield and shouted in a bright voice.

“Oh, a dragon just fell!”
