Chapter 4 | Dragon Heart

"How could you be humiliated by a weak woman like her?

"I-I was drunk at the time, and she suddenly attacked me, otherwise she would have died in my hand"

These idiots, seeing them reminded me of the gangsters who wreak havoc in the city, so I beat them up, well I accidentally broke some of their bones hahaha....well that's enough.

"Well, if you two don't want to get hurt, come with us calmly to the base, of course, we'll treat you guys b-"

How dare he stare at Asahi with his perverted face, it pissed me off, so I immediately beat him hard, making him fall to the ground.

The other 3 people started to attack.

"Damn you bitch!!"

[Scorching finger] With 2 Fingers I shattered the sword and dagger they used to attack me, I quickly used the severing finger on their foreheads and knocked them unconscious.

Most likely they'll call for more help, I want to break some of their bones if I can, but we're in a crowded place so I can't do it, especially with Asahi, she doesn't like that, so the conditions don't allow me to do it.

Finally, we found a building with a beer emblem, it was a tavern, and of course, there was an inn inside. So we ordered 2 Roo—

"We booked 1 room"

Uh? Are you sure Asahi? I looked at Asahi, and she just smiled at me.

The landlady was surprised by Asahi's request and covered her mouth, then she winked at me with a thumbs up, as if to say "Good luck".

Well, it doesn't matter since we're both girls, so I'll take it. You don't think anything weird, do you? good.

So, we entered the room we rented, luckily the mattress used was a double bed. Asahi changed into the nightgown the villagers had made earlier.

You know—for nightwear, isn't the fabric thin….I can even see the bra and underwear, are you sure you want to sleep in those clothes Asahi?

So I'd better go to bed early and turn the other way around.

"Ina-chan"

I felt the sound and warm breath blowing in my ear.

"A–Asahi what are you doing?", "Nothing"

"oh"

Asahi got into the blanket and approached me. Strange, I didn't feel anything when I turned around Asahi was already sleeping.

Well, I guess she will do something.

I saw her cute face while sleeping for a while, after that I fell asleep.

When we had breakfast there in the morning, we were served various kinds of food.

"Thanks for the food, it's delicious"

"Right! very delicious, like my mother's cooking"

"Thanks for the compliment ladies"

That's what it felt like, the landlady took some plastic and gave it to us.

"Take this ladies, you guys want to go out of town right? I'm sure you need food supplies"

I was about to take some silver coins in my pocket but was reprimanded by the landlady.

"It's Free Miss just take it"

"Are you sure?"

Asahi asked.

"Yeah, actually we rarely get female customers, so consider this a gift from me"

Asahi and I smiled and took the landlady's gift. The landlady is very similar to Granny Yama, they are good people.

After that we said goodbye to continue our journey.

I bought a saber sword just in case because the saber sword is thin almost like a Katana, well if there is a Katana then I will buy it right away, but there is no Katana sword in this world, should I ask a blacksmith to make it? I think so.

We've been walking for half a day, no sign of an attacking monster, but I can hear the sound of blades striking a few hundred meters from here, so we decided to take a look.

Actually, I didn't want to head toward the voice, because I didn't want to get into any more trouble, but Asahi said.

"Come on, Ina-chan, maybe someone needs our help!"

That's what she said, I wanted to reject her, but she stabbed me with her gaze, stop staring at me like that.

So we approached the sound of the battle, but it seemed that when we arrived the battle was over.

Corpses of knights were everywhere, there were even female corpses and several beheaded corpses of knights.

It was a battle between a group of knights and another group of knights, it seemed they were from different kingdoms, I pulled Asahi's hand to leave quickly from here.

However, Asahi vomited when she saw corpses everywhere, especially the corpse of the woman in front of her, I know it Will happen, damn.

"Who is there!"

Someone who seemed to be the leader of the knights knew of our existence.

"Mr. Gale, please attack them with your magic"

"Alright, [Fire Ball]!"

A fireball flew towards me, [Atomic Splitter] drew my sword, I swung my sword and slashed at the fire that was aiming at me, splitting it into 2 and dissipating into mana particles.

"*Did she split my magic?"

The mage was taken aback, but their leader didn't seem aware of it.

"Sorry ladies, but this time there can be no witnesses, kill them"

Dozens of troops started attacking me, [Thousands of Atomic Splitting Sword Slashes] The troops that came to attack me were barely able to launch an attack because before they attacked me, they were already killed by my sword.

At first glance, I looked like I was swinging a random sword, but the attacks I launched hit their vital parts, not only that, but the trees and the ground also had traces of my slashes.

"R-Rank S....!"

"Mr. Gale, attack him with magic!"

"I know! [Bullet magic]"

Mana energy that clumped up like a ball, with great concentration, condensed and swiftly aimed at me.

But I slashed the magic bullet with my left hand. With Buddha Step, I stepped in front of the knight leader and decapitated him with my sword.

But he resisted my slash, once again I slashed at him with the sword, but what differentiated my attack this time was that I coated my sword with a new technique I learned in this world called Sword Aura, the sword used to ward off my attack was severed and its head was also cut off.

"[Warp]"

Just as I was about to attack the witch, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, like he had changed places in an instant.

"W-Where did that person go?!"

What magic did he use [ Warp ]? Right! Asahi! I turned and looked at Asahi, but the mage I was fighting earlier suddenly appeared behind her.

"A-Asahi! Behind you!"

The mage knocked Asahi unconscious and carried him with magic that could make him switch places instantly, I also don't feel their presence anymore.

Shit! Shit! Shit! Piece of Shit!! If I had been more vigilant this wouldn't have happened. But I quickly got over myself.

Always thinking clearly and calming the mind is the first step in solving problems.

I looked around, finding a fairly large box near the leader's corpse. When I open the box.

I can feel a strong Mana wave from that thing, It glows blue. So I touched it. When I touch it...

"Argh!!"

That thing absorbed me, no. I absorb the thing, the shining thing enters my body, and the flow of Qi or Mana in my body becomes unstable, if this continues my body may explode.

But I have a solution, I do the cultivation I learned in China, it's difficult.

Keukk! My body hurts so much, my skin is peeling off, all the dirt comes out of my body through the skin, and I have to neutralize the Qi or Mana that is churning in my body.

I used the surrounding mana energy to neutralize it, sending the trees around me blown away.

Finally finished, the flow of Mana in my body has stabilized.

"Hoek!!"

I vomited blood. But that's not a problem, instead, I feel more energized, I feel stronger and younger, more... well anyway the Mana inside of me seems to be overflowing. My Hair....Wait what?! My Black Hair sudennly turns gold.

Maybe I can use magic.

"Fireballs!!"

....

...

Nothing happens. I tried it again, but this time I concentrated my Mana at one point and imagined a Flame in my hand, condensing it and creating it, throwing it forward, Duarr!! there was a big explosion in front of me.

The forest is on fire.... problem again.

I swung my arms and made a gust of wind and blew the fire that burned several trees out.

Alright, this is perfect. I looked at the piece of paper in the box, it said: "Heart of the Dragon" on the paper, it looks like that glowing blue thing was the heart of a dragon, and does that mean I made myself into a dragon? ahh, it's impossible just thinking about it makes my head spin.

I looked for more clues, about where this knight came from, and I found it. The mages who kidnapped Asahi were Troops from the Lunaria kingdom, and the Knight Squad that was slaughtered were from Trevold's kingdom troops.

So I changed my destination, to the Lunaria kingdom to save Asahi.
