Because I’m a Weapon Shop Uncle Vol 2 Chapter 21

The Hero and the Reunion (part 7)

The Demon Beast Record inscribes: “The dragons were the tyrants of the sky in the olden days. There were scarlet, ink black, and rock colored. They could ignite dragon fire, summon lightning, or shake mountains. Dragons were something even legendary heroes could not defeat.”

The Record of the Rise and Fall of Middle Earth inscribes: “When the King of Lie[1. This is a surname.  Liè, not lie (lai).] was young, he drew his sword and slayed a red dragon, bathed in its blood, and ate its eyes raw. He could see all big happenings, dubbing himself the king of the wind, and called himself the ominous son.”

At the present…

There was a gigantic red dragon, its ma.s.sive body hovering amidst the lightning.

It only need to unfurl its wings and roar, and fireb.a.l.l.s would rain down from the sky.

All the things touched by the fireb.a.l.l.s were burning into ashes.

Demon race, Dragon kind.

Direct subordinates of the demon king.

For the Expedition Regiment, the biggest headache was the sky. Air defense had been the Expedition Force’s biggest weak point for almost forever.

On the ground, forming a solid line of defense worked, however it didn’t in the sky.

So the demon king would often exploit this loophole and send every kind of flying demon to sneak attack the humans from the back.

As the strength of the Expedition Force expanded, a hundred meter range for air defence was possible.

This range was quite considerable and a large portion of demon beasts were deterred by this.

Except for two.

One was the Sky kind, the other was the Dragon kind.

The Sky kind were humanoid demons with wings. The Dragon kind were monsters covered in scales. The former were small and quick, and the latter had formidable scaly armor.

“Guards!! Call the city defense!!”

“Save me aaaaahhhh–”

“Monster, it’s a monster!!”

“Mama–”

Every kind of shrieks could be heard in all the streets.

It was no use.

The guards came rus.h.i.+ng forward gripping their lances, but the dragon floating in the sky was an existence that left them in the dust.

But even if the dragon came down from the sky, they still would not be able to defeat it.

“Roar–”

The red dragon looked up and bellowed.

A indescribably oppressive feeling came down from the sky, almost crus.h.i.+ng everyone down.

Our Expedition Regiment once vanquished a dragon, but that was when many people were working together.

We used all kinds of control and weakening skills, and then a furious charge. Even so, we still lost a person.

Dragons are a very strong demon.

At this moment, the black clouds were pierced through with countless holes. A mult.i.tude of meteor-like fireb.a.l.l.s came raining down from the sky.

There was one that was coming down near where Ailee and I were.

Ah ah.

I grabbed my spear on my back.

There were rivulets of water on the spear when i gripped it, making it feel bone-chilling cold.

“Your Highness Ailee!!”

The butler sprinted towards Ailee, shouting in warning.

“I’m fine. I’m fine, butler.”

Ailee spoke.

I raised my head to watch the speeding fireball plunge without a care.

Not only did the rain water not extinguish the fireball, but also it produced a layer of blazing water vapor around the fireball due to the water evaporating.

If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely run.

Before this fireball fell, they would p.i.s.s their pants in terror and escape, and they might be able to live.
