Volume 5 - CH 58

Act 5-58: The End of Azure Dragon

――North of the Marshland, Under the Marsh of North Grand

「 Those bastards…」

The scary youth, Cetus, crawled in the muddy marshland, cursing his opponent who outsmarted him.

Both his arms and legs were torn from roots, half of his face melted, his body burnt black. Countless, blue thread appeared on his body, quickly patching those grieve wounds

「Those human-sham! I won’t let them have an easy death! I shall return this humiliation with eternal torment!」

As Cetus swearing like that――

「You seems to be in a quite bad shape♬」

A beardy, tall and muscular man called out to Cetus cheerfully while looking down at the latter

「Aldebaran! You, You tricked me! Become King my ass! If I really am a king, how can a dragon king like me lose to those lowly monsters!」

Cetus shouted angrily at Aldebaran but the latter just shrugged his shoulders and shook his head.

「You are the king of dragons. There’s no doubt about that. Right, my lord?」

""

He looked at the squirrel on his right shoulder as he asked that question,

『Yes. You’re a king. The reason for your loss is simply because your opponent is stronger than you. The other party might be the guardian deity of this area―― But that matter aside, you are undoubtedly… A King.』

The squirrel seems to be thinking about something else but he reassures a fact that Cetus has yet to accept.

「MY OPPONENT IS STRONGER THAN ME!? DON’T SCREW WITH ME! Dragon King is the strongest being in this world. As if finding someone stronger than me is that easy!」

『Yeah, that statement is incorrect. You’re nothing more than a slightly stronger king of lizards in this world. And a king of lizard shouldn’t make such a boring jokes.』

The squirrel spoke with mix of scorful and dumbfounded voice,

「LIZARD! YOU SAID I’M A LIZARD!」

Cetus raised an enraged roar while spitting tiny fire pillars from his mouth, staring at the squirrel with bloodshot eyes.

『That’s enough. Shut this noisy lizard!』

The squirrel raised a frown and ordered Aldebaran.

「As you wish. My Lord.」

Aldebaran seized Cetus’ shoulders. And then opened his mouth slowly.

「W-What are you doing? Let go!」

From Cetus’ perspective, who could only look at Aldebaran from the edge of his field of view, Aldebaran’s mouth opened up beyond normal level, his face became bigger, the tips of his mouth torn, he turned into something akin to a giant reptile.

「NOOOOOOOOOO!」

Cetus raised a scream,

――CRUNCH!

Aldebaran’s oversized mouth had already swallowed Cetus as a whole. Though Cetus raised agonizing wails as Aldebaran chewed him up, the latter suddenly crouched down on the spot pinning his chest, as if in pain.

The skin of Aldebaran’s body suddenly undulates like waves, creating something like a crimson coloured cocoon.

The squirrel got down to the ground and raising his arms,

『Finally 『True Demon King(Truest Archenemy)』! The piece’s evolution surpassed my expectations! Now the preparation for the 『Descent of The God』 has been completed! The last step is to perform the ritual once this sacrifice breaks out from the cocoon!』

And shouted delightfully.
