Survival Story of a Sword King in a Fantasy World

Decisive Battle (2)

“Preleu, let your power enhance my movements!”

Leon Hart flew up with the winds. He then charged in and galloped over the band of monsters.

He targeted the blonde black beauty wearing a red robe.

-Ectoplasmic Spear!

The silver-haired girl then swung her twin blades head-on and rushed through the monsters.

-Magic Swordsmanship: Howling Thunderstorms!

At the same time, the red-haired Mage lifted the Fire Dragon King’s Staff.

“Mass Flare Cannon!”

Genovia flaunted the Staff of the World.

“Everyone, burn.”

A firestorm appeared, burning a few tens of meters radius. She tapped the ground with the tip of her weapon.

“Force Field.”

A turquoise shroud surrounded Genovia.

All the incoming spiritual arts, raging magic swordsmanship techniques, and fiery spells were blocked.

Boom!

Despite the failure of their offensive, no one was disappointed.

They didn’t give it their all.

They had to fight through the monsters, delivering attacks, burning things around them, and bombing them. The same went for those who could not concentrate their strength.

As they stepped back, Effir and Artis caught their breath.

‘Our mission is to buy time!’

‘We just have to keep doing this!’

Hence, Genovia was relaxed.

She mumbled, staring far beyond the basin.

“I don’t understand…”

She was in the middle of a battle, looking at the Upper Draconium’s Ancient Dragons. He had the same question as Garhan did.

“Why is there such a difference when their levels are similar?”

Leon Hart gently explained why.

“Considering the nature of the Guidelines, it’s not incomprehensible.”

They were in a position to hang in there for another second.

The opponent asked for a conversation first, so there was no reason to miss such a good opportunity.

“There’s probably no distinction between them and us from the perspective of the Alien monsters. We’re all opponents to them. But even at the same level, isn’t there a difference in the range?”

If the opponent was a human being, they needed to reach at least 20 meters to figure out the level with Guidelines.

However, depending on their size, Dragons could be identified even when they were more than a hundred meters away.

“And the level-measuring function of the Guidelines were derived from the energy grasp of Alien monsters.”

Connecting those two characteristics led to a conclusion.

“Dragons are five times wider than humans, which means they’ll attract more creatures.”

In other words, even at the same level, Dragons were recognized as a much larger prey than humans for Alien monsters.

In addition, that meant the perception range was also five times bigger.

It was not just that five times more of them attacked the Dragons.

“The area is the square of the distance, so the actual number has to be tens of times larger, right?”

Due to that, Han-bin and his group attracted only the ones that could fight with proper vigilance around them, but there were so many of their kind that it was hard to protect themselves at the same time.

That was why it didn’t matter what the number of the Anti-Polymorph Necklaces was.

“Because we’re not going to fight them anyway.”

Of course, the power gap would have widened to the point where a powerful Dragon wouldn’t even be able to lure it here if there were more than 20 monsters…

“Fortunately, that’s not it. Thank you very much for your laziness, Mado Queen. Hahaha.”

With a smile on the outside, Leon Hart was delighted.

‘All right, we’ve bought enough time!’

The seed germinated and turned into power.
