Head on huh! Yeah, that’s what I want!] Grendel’s enormous fist comes flying at me! I can feel an aura which seems like it will crush me down if I get hit by it! I won’t get hit with it! I changed my direction in the air, and dodged his punch! Even though he has a huge fist, it’s fast! So being a Dragon-King class isn’t a joke huh! I went within his range, and change the evil piece inside me! [BoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoost!!] [Welsh Dragonic Rook!] [Change Solid Impact!!!!] The shape of my armour fattens and thickens, and the form of both my arms changes into something which specialises in both attacking and defending. I nail my fist which has increased its size towards his face! Grendel gets thrown back and was about to fall down, but he manages to stay on his feet! At the same time I land on the ground, I deactivated Triana [Rook] to return my armour to the normal state, and stepped back. Grendel who was punched in his face from the front strokes his cheek. [………… What was that? Hey hey hey.] “——! ?”
I’m in shock. That was Triana [Rook] which specialises in attacking, you know? He got hit by it directly, but he seems as if nothing happened. The only change is that there is a bit of his blue coloured blood coming out from his mouth. That’s the only damage I gave him? Grendel breathes violently from his nose, and then complains. [Is this it? Isn’t your host too weak? You were crazy strong before, Ddraig. Seriously, pitiful!] ……Oh man. So Triana won’t work. [Partner, lets transform into True-Queen. I also can’t ignore the words he said just now.] Yeah, Ddraig. You are right. I still haven’t punched enough for Gasper, Ravel, and Koneko-chan’s sake! I then read out a powerful chant. “—I, who is about to awaken, am the Sekiryuutei who holds the truth of King up high! Holding the infinite hopes and unbreakable dreams and walking the path of righteousness! I will become the Emperor of the Crimson dragon—”
If I lose here, I won’t be able to face up to my seniors who have perished! I can’t continue to be beaten like this! “ “ “ “ “And I will lead you to the path of Heaven glowing in deep crimson light!” ” ” ” ”
[Cardinal Crimson Full Drive!!!!] Bright crimson aura envelops my body, and it dyes my armour a deep crimson colour! Seeing the change in my armour, Grendel laughs once again. [Crimson? What the? Interesting! That’s really interesting, Ddraaaaig! You are clearly stronger than before!] Grendel jumps forward! Fast! It doesn’t seem like he has a huge body at all! He shortens the distance between us immediately, and slashes down with his claws! I fly and dodge it at high-speed, and nail my right fist into his face as a counter! ……Shit! I also felt it before but...... The hit just now is perfect in terms of its impact and timing. But, it’s heavy! It’s thick! It’s hard! What is it with this guy’s defence……! I don’t have any sensation where I can hit him away when my punch lands on him! It’s thick and heavy! It makes me think what his scales and skin are made from. [Grendel had one of the hardest scales among the extinct Dragons. A half-hearted attack won’t work, partner.] “But on the other hand, we can’t use Dragon Blaster nor Crimson Blaster here.”
They have high attack powers, but they are attacks which can also blow away the surroundings right away. I won’t be able to shoot them here since I don’t know how strong this place is built. If I shoot them without thinking, this field may perish. [I’m sorry, but right now you won’t be able to use them anyway. Since they may explode since I got my consciousness back.] After all, the True-Queen is still unstable to begin with. But I’m in the situation where I want one powerful attack. [Partner, what is installed in your left gauntlet?] Having Ddraig say, I remembered about that. ……Yeah. I have this. It’s something too good for me, but it won’t be a waste to use it here! [Here I coooome! Ddraig-chaaaan!] When Grendel shouts that out, his stomach fattens! He’s trying to spit out something! What Grendel spits out is—huge fireball! Fires are Dragons special attacks after all! I dodge them by spreading my wings and moving to the sides—but Grendel who has moved to that spot out of nowhere is present! This Dragon moves too fast! ……So the fireball is a bluff huh! He puts his fist towards me! And I don’t have the time to dodge it! GOSU! The strike from his giant fist hits my whole body! And the shock passes through my whole body……! Shit……what insane attack power……! It’s just a normal punch, but it carries more power than Sairaorg-san when he’s wearing the lion’s armour……! I break my balance up in the air, and Grendel swings his hand down to slam me to the ground! I got hit by it directly from my back, and I get slammed to the ground violently! ……Gaha……! Because of the motion and force of being slammed down, I cough blood from my mask! Intense pain runs throughout my body! ……Like I thought, his power is insane! T-This guy’s strength isn’t just that of a Dragon-King……! [Guhahahahaha! Get squashed!] I then see a giant foot that is coming down at me! I will get squashed! I can’t let that happen! I roll my body to the side to avoid being stomped by the enemy, and fix my posture right away. The stomp from the giant body misses and cracks the ground, which then shakes the whole field! I fly up to the sky immediately! Along with flying up to the sky, I kick towards the enemy’s jaw! [BoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoostBoost!!] I kicked Grendel’s jaw really hard! It was a clean hit, and I felt some resistance. ……But the sensation I felt is hard and thick! He’s so heavy that it's impossible to kick him away! This isn’t only because he is big! His defence is really high! And he has quick movements……! [Dragons are the strongest creatures. Among them, the Dragon-Kings, and those in classes which surpass them are such powerful foes that they will become a threat. Don’t forget that. ……Especially the “Evil-Dragons” and those close to it are violent as well as being tough!] Yeah, I really do think that is the case here, Ddraig! Even after being hit on his jaw, Grendel continues to throw his punches normally! I block them by thickening the armour on my arms to the state of [Welsh Dragonic Rook]……but the force of his punches are overwhelming, and I get smashed to the wall! ……The damage on my back! Because of the pain of clashing to the wall, it’s hard to breath! Rather, I have been receiving insane shock even through the armour! [His attack power and defence are insanely high!] You are exactly right, Ddraig……
Grendel and I then start a fist fight! This Dragon which throws swift punches and kicks which you can’t believe it's coming from someone with a huge body! I can’t let my guard down since he will attack me from the blind spot with his tail when he sees the chance! ……So being a giant-type Dragon allows him to have this many movements huh!
