Type-Moon: In Another World, I Became an Alien God

Page 32

She looked at the town burning in flames and at the way the soldiers and civilians around her were looking at her.

That means—that's enough, that's about it.

The civilians realized that their deaths were imminent.

They witnessed the princess risking her life to protect them, and they were too ashamed to say anything more to persuade her to stay.

As long as the princess can survive.

She might be able to protect more people in their place.

However, Krimhild was unwilling to let her people and town be trampled by the dragon.

In the sky, the dragons spewed forth raging fire imbued with violent power.

They scoffed at the girl's powerlessness and weakness.

Not only dominating the skies, their roars seem to declare that they alone are the masters of the planet.

The dragon's eyes held the colors of a wild beast.

That was the smile of a lewd, sadistic, and vile beast.

Krimshild closed her eyes.

It was as if she had already acknowledged her resentment.

Just as she was about to give the order to retreat to the soldiers around her, another sneer came from outside the city.

"Ha, how disgusting. It's because of your dragon race's behavior that you always act so arrogantly, like you're the second oldest in the world."

That's why you can't become the planet's primates.

The sound wasn't very loud.

However, it possesses an extraordinary power that those ferocious dragons cannot ignore.

The mountain peak is located several hundred meters away from the city.

A man clad in silver divine armor stood atop a rock, the bow and arrow in his hand reflecting the pure, immaculate moonlight.

Five arrows made of magic were nocked on the bowstring.

call out--!

Five arrows flew out at the same time.

It tore through the atmosphere, releasing a thunderous, ear-piercing shriek.

"Roar--!!"

The dragons roared in fury.

Faced with such insults and slander against the dragon race, these inferior magical beasts acted like filial sons eager to protect their father.

However, they were faced with arrows that exuded an air of superiority.

The dragons, by their very nature, sensed something was wrong and instinctively tried to flee.

It's quite a pity that this was only realized when...

The arrow had long since pierced the dragon's head and torso, splattering its colorful brain matter onto the ground.

Without exception, they were all instantly defeated.

The five arrows separated as they sped along, instantly turning from five into twenty-five.

They flew along their respective orbits.

Ultimately, the dragons met the same fate.

"Who...is that...?"

Krimshild stood there, stunned.

Not only her, but also the soldiers and civilians around her.

No one had time to react.

All that was heard was that arrogant sneer, followed by twenty or thirty streaks of white light flashing across the sky.

Yes, all the dragons fell.

The dragon calamity ended so easily.

It's like a dream.

"That's the direction...!"

Krimshild narrowed his eyes slightly.

She was not only skilled with a sword, but also with an excellent bow.

With his exceptional eyesight and a simple estimation of the arrow's trajectory, he immediately guessed the archer's location.

Sure enough, she saw a warrior wearing divine armor.

"Giddy up! Chase after them!"

Krimshild mounted his horse.

Before the surrounding soldiers could react, she had already ridden her horse out of the city gate.

She quickly arrived at the mountain.

The warrior, clad in holy armor, is here, having slain dozens of dragons with a single attack.

"You are...that stranger...!?"

Krimshild sat on his horse.

On the other side, Yao squatted on the mountain path halfway up the mountain, the soil in front of him was trembling slightly.

"You are... Krimshild?"

Yao was slightly surprised.

I only caught a glimpse of her at the palace last time, and then Yao hurriedly left to prepare for the extermination of the evil dragon.

There was nothing he could do; women would only slow down his speed in drawing his sword.

Of course, Zhu Yue is an exception.

Yao was focused on becoming stronger as quickly as possible, so he had no intention of trying to build relationships with others.

Now, Krimshild has come looking for her.

This forced Yao to take a closer look at the other party.

"If I'm not mistaken, it was you who shot down those dragons, wasn't it?"

"If you want to thank me, you can just say so here. Your Highness, I'm very busy here."

"...You're very busy!?"

Krimshild froze for a few seconds.

Yao is still half-squatting with his back to her, his hands on the ground, seemingly doing nothing.

It's just like a con artist preparing to perform a shamanic ritual.

If it weren't for seeing Yao wearing holy divine armor, Krimhild would have thought she had the wrong person.

"Hoo—I, Krimhilde, Princess of Burgundy, express my gratitude for your intervention in rescuing the city's inhabitants."

However, things should be handled one thing at a time!

Krimshild stared intently at Yao.

The resentment in her beautiful eyes was so intense it was almost overflowing.

In the beginning, Yao did indeed travel throughout the Kingdom of Burgundy, slaughtering dragons with overwhelming divine power.

Several cities were saved from dire straits by Yao.

This greatly excited Gunter.

The entire court believed that Yao was an unparalleled hero, a savior who could save the country from peril.

Therefore, it is quite natural.

To boost the morale of the people, Gunther instructed his ministers to spread the news of Yao's deeds throughout the country.

"This great hero has come to help us quell the dragon plague!"

"As long as he makes a move, he will surely defeat the evil dragon."

What happened next was obvious; the whole country was overjoyed as if they had seen a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as everyone expected.

The hero who vanquished the evil dragon has vanished.

He disappeared for a full six months, during which time he only briefly appeared in a few small towns.

They only managed to defeat a few insignificant wyverns.

Despite being extremely powerful, he did not go to fight the evil dragon.

Judging from his appearance, he had no intention of confronting the evil dragon Fafnir at all, which drew boos from the entire nation.

They believe that this so-called great hero is actually a coward who is afraid of death.

The royal family's reputation plummeted as a result of this incident.

Krimshild had to work even harder to provide disaster relief.

This is not only to protect national security, but also to preserve the family's honor.

If we were to ask how the royal family views Yao now, they would undoubtedly consider him a treacherous and wicked person.

"It's been half a year since you got the information! Where have you been all this time!?"

Krimshild was utterly perplexed.

Having witnessed this incredible archery skill firsthand, Krimshild couldn't help but feel admiration.

At the same time, she believes that only Yao.

Only this man has the ability to subdue the evil dragon.

However, seeing Yao playing with the mud now fills her with a sense of disappointment and frustration.

“I see.

No wonder the people in the cities I passed through looked at me like that. So you were blaming me for not slaying the evil dragon.

While I am indeed very sorry in many ways, ...what does it have to do with me?

Yao glanced at Krimshild with complete indifference.

He showed no pity for the deceased.

"What does this mean!?"

"It doesn't mean anything. I just wanted to say that it was your royal family that acted on its own initiative and broke the defenses. I said I would subdue the evil dragon, but did I tell you to subdue it immediately? I said I needed to prepare."

As a result, they rushed to publicize it before I even encountered the evil dragon. Therefore, this can only be your own problem.”

"Even so, you possess this power, which could clearly allow you to fight the evil dragon and save many more people..."

Krimshild suppressed her anger and confusion.

In fact, she knew she couldn't blame Yao.

From the very beginning, Yao was not a citizen of their country, nor did he have any obligation to fight the evil dragon for them.

However, from a subjective perspective...

If Yao had paid more attention to the people of this country, he could have greatly reduced casualties and saved more lives.

He possesses this power.

As a princess of a nation, Krimhild naturally hoped that Yao would show more compassion for his people.
