This body was ravaged by the evil dragon's breath and was no longer able to move normally.
Yao assumed she was reacting because of the intense pain.
In fact, Krimschild's spinal nerves were burned to the point that she could no longer feel pain.
In his hazy consciousness, he could only feel someone touching him.
I could vaguely sense from his aura that he was a man.
The girl's resistance stemmed from her modesty and shyness; the pain had long since been removed from her body.
This is a tragically laughable truth.
"Hmm, if we rely on these, it should be fine. The amount of the evil dragon is enough for two people."
In a daze, Krimshild heard words.
You can also smell the pungent stench of blood.
The entire space was filled with a pungent smell of blood, and every breath felt like drinking a mouthful of fresh blood.
The evil dragon's corpse was split in two.
The enormous dragon body, split in two, gushed forth a torrent of blood, so much of it that it formed a blood-red lake.
Yao carried Krimhild to the middle of the Blood Lake.
There lies the dragon's heart, severed in two.
It's called a heart, but in terms of size, it's comparable to a horse-drawn carriage, and it's still full of vitality to this day.
Even though the evil dragon's soul is shattered.
However, the fact that the body is still trying to survive, and that the flesh is still throbbing, is the best proof of that.
"call..."
Yao reached out and grabbed half of the heart.
Then, the half of the dragon's heart stopped beating and shrank to the size of a fist.
Pfft——!
Sharp fangs pierced the dragon's heart.
A gurgling sound came from Yao's throat as he chewed up the dragon heart and swallowed it.
Dragons are treasures from head to toe.
The best way to absorb it is to eat it.
"...It tastes awful."
Yao doesn't have the habit of eating raw food.
As one of the primordial beings, he has no need to drink blood, nor does he have the urge to do so.
However, as Yao swallowed the heart, he felt a powerful force emanating from the evil dragon.
My whole body felt warm.
The remaining half of the heart was also shrunk and devoured by Yao.
However, he had no intention of absorbing it.
"How fragile..."
Yao looked at Krimshild and sighed.
A body that is a mixture of ugliness and beauty.
One half was made incredibly ugly by the raging fire, while the other half vaguely revealed the shadow of a beauty.
For an ordinary person, it would only feel utterly disgusting.
Yao didn't take it seriously.
He gently cupped the girl's face in his hands.
"This is to make up for this time and the last time."
Yao kissed Krimhild's oxygen-starved lips.
The girl twitched her fingers, trying to escape.
Clearly, she simply didn't have the energy to do it.
—Only a hair's breadth away from death.
Krimshild's situation was that dangerous.
Glug is the sound of swallowing.
The half of the dragon's heart that Yao had swallowed slid into Krimshild's throat.
Her life was like a candle flickering in the wind.
The injection of the dragon's heart was like throwing a spark of life into an oil field, which instantly turned into a vast sea of fire.
It was a tremendous transformation, like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
"Yes, these clothes are getting in the way too."
Yao glanced at Krimhild's tattered dress.
Then, he tore it off without any hesitation.
Dragonheart can fundamentally change Krimshild, but it cannot restore the girl's former beauty.
Only dragon's blood can heal Krimshild.
That's why Yao chose to tear off her clothes so that she could bathe in the dragon's blood.
Krimshild's situation was extremely dire.
It's not something you can appreciate at all.
At this moment, Krimshild's cheeks gradually turned rosy, whether from shyness or from the dragon's blood, it was hard to tell.
Yao should do the same for himself.
It's like when someone is bathing in dragon's blood and gets a bonsai leaf on their back, which causes a fatal weakness.
He can't let that happen.
The two faced each other with complete sincerity, and together they soaked in dragon's blood.
The transformation is taking place little by little.
.....
Several days passed quickly.
The royal city of Burgundy has yet to receive any news.
Finally, the scouts returned with news.
—There was no trace of the evil dragon or the army; all that could be found were charred, deep pits filled with devastation.
All we know is that the evil dragon fought here.
The iron weapons left behind on the battlefield reveal the traces left by the soldiers.
All these signs point to one fact.
All the soldiers who fought the evil dragon perished, along with the princess whom the royal family was so proud of.
King Gunther was devastated by this.
At the same time, it wasn't just the evil dragon that disappeared, but also the swarms of flying dragons that caused the dragon calamity.
After the battle between the army and the evil dragon, the flying dragons scattered and fled like stray dogs, completely losing their previous arrogance.
However, no one could be happy.
The dragon scourge caused them to lose too much.
The entire nation, including the royal family, was overwhelmed with grief, and they found it difficult to feel joy at such an outcome.
Rather than saying that they can live a good life.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that they've finally been freed from fear and pain.
All that remained in their hearts was the relief of surviving the ordeal; grief made them forget what joy was.
This victory was undoubtedly tragic.

Chapter 43 The Blood Armor of the Evil Dragon, New Power [Seeking Flowers! Seeking Monthly Tickets!]
Getting back to the main point, there's no trace of the battlefield, so where did Yao and Krimhild go?
The two did not leave the Kingdom of Burgundy.
They remained on the island.
However, the two stayed in a place inaccessible to mortals, in a workshop where an isolation barrier had been set up.
【Blood Armor of the Evil Dragon】
[Grade: B+]
The entries are displayed on Yao's Imaginary Tree panel.
This is the new power he gained after slaying the evil dragon.
"Huh? This Noble Phantasm makes me immune to magical and physical attacks below B+ rank. When fighting against A-rank attacks, the defense is calculated after deducting the Noble Phantasm's defense."
Yao summoned a water mirror to examine himself.
Her fair skin radiated a glass-like luster, and upon closer inspection, one could even see a layer of crystal-clear dragon scales.
Beneath the dragon scales, each muscle is clearly defined.
The artistry and imposing presence of ancient sculpture are perfectly blended in Yao's body.
"Huh? Dragon scales can be stored away..."
Yao seems to have discovered a new toy.
Although the reason for this is unknown, his skin did not become hardened by the dragon scales.
Even if the dragon scales are put away.
As long as an attack is launched at Yao's body, the dragon scales will still appear in an instant.
Mysterious, isn't it amazing?
The Blood Armor of the Evil Dragon is an extremely useful ability.
If its defense value is 50, then when facing an A-level attack with a value of 100, the actual damage the body needs to withstand is only 50.
[Dragon Modification: Evil Dragon]
[Grade: B+]
This is the second ability Yao has acquired.
He transformed himself by swallowing a dragon's heart, thus creating the magical core of the dragon race.
"With the heart of a dragon, my magical release will become stronger. In the future, I will also be able to unleash even stronger Star Breath."
Yao nodded with great satisfaction.
The True Ancestor already possessed the ability to unleash the Breath of Stars, and now it is further enhanced by the Dragon Core of the Dragon Seed.
This is not a simple one plus one.
It's no exaggeration to say that he could easily make light cannons with his bare hands.
King Arthur's beam cannon is also the Breath of Stars.
Yao couldn't directly throw light cannons at other people's faces before because his physical strength wasn't enough to achieve it.
