For every use of , I could feel the waves touching my skin becoming hotter. Our escape speed was less than the expanding shockwave's speed! Sooner or later, it will catch up to us, but before that, I need to increase the distance! Without minding my remaining energy reserves, I continued spamming the skill. I didn't know if it was dozens or hundreds of times, but after an instant that felt like forever, we finally got caught up by the blast. "Gah!" Pain coursed all over my body as I absorbed the…-

The roar lasted for a good while, long enough to make my ears ring right after it ended. After it ended, all over the place, I started feeling the aura released by the red parasites from before. "D*mn it!" If we dallied any longer, then we'd definitely get surrounded. However, entering the heart of the Dragon King's God Territory while it was fuming would definitely be suicidal. With it getting angry, I can't even imagine what sort of danger would be waiting for us in there. "Kuh...!" Fang…

With each swing of my sword, I would slash three to four of the white parasites. However, no matter how many cuts they took, each slice would just squirm towards the other parts, combining into a larger piece once more before returning to attack me. Fang was facing the same dilemma, not being able to kill a single one of those parasites no matter what she did. With every swing of her claws, the parasites would get splattered into dozens of pieces, but they would slowly gather their sliced parts and…

I stared outside, taking a deep breath as I tried to plan our path from here to the heart. With the detailed map that Ember passed to me, I was able to create a path that safely leads to the heart area. "Fang, let's run. Keep battles to a minimum." Now that Queen Thalia is not around, Fang and I can run at our top speed without restraints. We can't waste our energy against these almost immortal parasites, the Dragon King's defense mechanism, so we can only try and outrun them. "Yes, Leader! I'll…

244 Creeping Danger Without a pause, Fang and I sent the incoming white parasite-looking things flying off the edge. As we did, we slowly walked along the long intestine, heading to wherever the direction we were following led. A problem arose soon enough, though. "Ahh!" Queen Thalia screamed in fear as she was attacked by some of the parasites. Being the nearest, I moved to clear those who were bothering her, but I was still a little too late. She was already injured here and there, bleeding…

243 Defense Mechanism Fang and I were running along the top of the digestive fluid. Honestly, looking at Fang running ahead of me, I was reminded of that one Ninja anime that I watched before. If not for all the fillers, it was a pretty good anime... While I was reminiscing, we reached a bend. Fang, without much hesitation, jumped straight down, but I saw her face change into shock as soon as she did. I tried to stop at the edge, but with how I'm carrying someone on my back, the momentum alone…

"What the hell is this place?" I can't help but mutter in disbelief. After we reached the only exit from the dome, the scene before us became something that was hard to describe. Looking around, it seems like the walls were made of pulsing flesh, had rugged surfaces, and were seemingly tunnel-like as they led deeper into darkness. From the looks of it, the path was like the intestines of a large monster or something. It was more than five meters wide, enough for us to walk without bumping into…

Although Noir was talking to us, I could see him setting up the shadow tentacles all around, ready to enclose and attack from all directions. I immediately warned Fang about the incoming stealth attacks. "Now, shall we get started?" As if his voice were the distraction itself, the start of his sentence was also the signal for the start of his tentacle's attacks. "Fang!" "Yes, Leader!" Just as I told her before, she moved toward the incoming tentacles one after another. Her claws, clad in…

When she heard my command, after her wild coughing fit that shook everything that could shake about her, she stared at my face with a complicated expression. "... I'm warning you, but you can't enter that place without the key. Only my husband holds it." "Key? No need." After all, unless it's spatially locked, we can just use the Shadow dimension to bypass barriers. Although it'll mean we have to leave Queen Thalia behind later, that still works. As if realizing that we wouldn't have reached…

The figure on top of the bed was turned away from us, lying on her left side from the silhouette that we can see. However, from her hair color, length, and style alone, it was obvious that she was Queen Thalia, the First Queen of Cleaver Kingdom. This must be a stroke of good luck, as she's definitely one of the best hostages to take. I sent a telepathic command to Fang, making her move towards Queen Thalia's side and restrain her movements. I also moved closer to the bed, making sure that it was…
