Chapter 163

〈 Chapter 164 〉 Chapter 163 – VS Black.

*

“I’M GONNA KILL YOU!!!”

The Black Dragon started to rage intensely at my final words.

Just as it was about to unleash its breath.

A number above the Black Dragon’s head went up by one.

Then the Black Dragon froze in place.

And then it began to laugh maniacally as if it had lost its mind.

“Hehehe… so this isn’t enough, is it?”

Instead of unleashing its breath, the Black Dragon maintained a sphere floating in the air.

Then it grabbed its head with both hands and started to scream.

With a painfully tortured scream, the Black Dragon began to undergo another change in its appearance.

Its entire arms and legs transformed completely into reptilian forms.

Its neck and shoulders were covered in scales.

Additionally, a pair of wings and horns sprouted.

New thorns erupted at the tip of its tail.

The Black Dragon was bleeding from its mouth, likely due to the exertion.

Yet, it was finally completing its evolution.

“THIRD STAGE EVOLUTION!!!”

“F*ck, this isn’t Pokémon!!!!!”

The Black Dragon was now evolving into its third form, from Mignon to Shinyon to Mangnagon.

Moreover, the transformation seemed to cause black magical power to waft from its entire body.

It was like a disaster unfolding before my eyes.

Naturally, I couldn’t hide my mixed feelings about the situation I had never expected.

Perhaps feeling the same emotions, Piece spoke to me in a slightly dejected voice.

[Wouldn’t it have been better to bring the unwavering stone?］

‘F*ck, who knew it would evolve?’

Due to the Black Dragon’s transformation, the sphere that was slightly bigger than a basketball now resembled a gym ball in size.

However, I had no intention of backing down.

With my hands crossed, just as I was about to unleash starlight at the newly evolved Black Dragon.

“AAAH!!!!! WHAT IS THAT!!!!!!!!!”

I heard a familiar voice.

Yes.

It was the voice of the petite Succubus who fainted earlier when Spencer was talking about colors.

She was fixating her gaze on me and the Black Dragon while the Black Dragon was solely focused on the black sphere.

In the end, we were only hearing the petite Succubus’s scream.

Yet, this was a critical moment.

There was no energy to spare for that voice.

Unless it was what followed next.

“BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The taut tension existing between me and the Dragon vanished in an instant.

Startled by the unexpected shout, both the Black Dragon and I began searching for the source of the voice.

A hand, presumably belonging to the petite Succubus, reached out from the group of Succubi.

Though we couldn’t see her, both the Black Dragon and I half-expected that the finger reaching out belonged to the petite Succubus.

Because that finger was pointing directly at the Black Dragon.

“What?…”

“W-What do you mean!”

The Black Dragon shouted toward the finger that was pointing at it, mixing anger and confusion.

Then a trembling voice belonging to the petite Succubus was heard.

“Wh-What is that black thing! It’s dark! So scary!”

“N-No!!!! That’s not it!!!!”

“Save me! Save me!”

The Black Dragon retorted angrily.

But the petite Succubus’s voice didn’t stop.

“That is a reverse triangle consisting of three Abysses!!! That’s the end itself!!!”

“SHUT THE F*CK UP!!!!!!!!!!”

With that prophetic voice, I too couldn’t help but feel fear.

It was a chilling proclamation that seemed to announce the end of the world.

Keeping the starlight while my hands trembled, I turned my gaze toward the Black Dragon.

“It isn’t because you’re a Black Dragon, is it?”

“N-No!!! I’m telling you, that’s not it!!! F*ck, it’s not!!!!!!!!!”

[You are really scared…］

‘This is f*cking terrifying…’

For the first time, I felt overwhelming fear emanating from the Black Dragon.

Meanwhile, the Black Dragon was stomping its feet, creating small tremors.

However, that had the opposite effect.

Due to the Black Dragon’s threat, the petite Succubus’s voice now shifted from expressing fear to fervent prayer to an extraordinary being.

“The three dark ones will come! That darkness will close our path!!!”

“SHUT UP BEFORE I KILL YOU!!!!!”

“Almighty Succubus!!! Save us with eternal pink!!!”

Before I knew it, all the Succubi were inspired by the petite Succubus and began each praying in despair.

“I never thought Tantalus would be this close! Lord! Please save us!”

“Isn’t the black hole supposed to be in space? Why is it on the ground?”

“Lord! If you save me, I will convert to an angel!”

“If I can just survive today! I quit being a f*cking Succubus.”

“……Bring that child over too.”

Lilith pointed at the last Succubus with an uncomfortable expression.

The pointed Succubus obediently walked over to her and immediately prostrated herself.

It was reminiscent of the earlier Succubus who made an unholy remark, now alongside another for a Wonsan Bombardment act.

Meanwhile, the Black Dragon was tearing up at the sight of such fanaticism.

At that moment.

“You guys are really too much!”

Elcia suddenly barged in.

With a serious expression above all, Elcia scolded the Succubi.

“How can you say a part is black! It makes no sense!”

Seeing that, the Black Dragon looked at Elcia with a touched expression.

And while looking at me, it spoke with teary eyes.

“Looks like one of your companions has some merit.”

[…Elcia is defending someone, could it be a side effect of bad food?］

‘Looks like the story is going down the drain.’

Did you call for me?

Get lost!

Suddenly, Kyaru was about to step in, so I quickly whacked my head and sent it back.

Meanwhile, Elcia started to raise her voice even more than before.

“No matter how you can tell colors, it couldn’t possibly be black!”

“Right! Just because the bats have good eyesight doesn’t actually mean that!”

The Black Dragon violently agreed with Elcia’s opinion, then.

“That’s just gotten confused because of fur!”

“……What?”

It broke down.

The Black Dragon suddenly stopped in its tracks.

Elcia pointed at the frozen Black Dragon and shouted loudly.

“My hometown, the Forest of Elves, is right there!!!!!!”

“No, you bastard!!!!!!!!”

The Black Dragon expressed huge agitation and anger.

As a result, the black sphere that had formed in front of the Black Dragon completely vanished.

However, the Black Dragon didn’t care about the disappearance of the black sphere.

In fact, the Black Dragon urgently began to tear at its clothes to prove it wasn’t black.

“Look!!! How could this be that fluffy black! Just looking at it clearly is pink—”

“WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AWAY FOR? YOU F*CKER?”

It was my golden opportunity.

I quickly took advantage of the Black Dragon’s narrowed vision due to its agitation and approached it.

Of course, still maintaining the starlight in both hands.

Only then did the Black Dragon, almost ripping its underwear off, hastily try to charge at me again.

But it was too late.

I tripped the Black Dragon and climbed on top of it, pressing its arms down with my knees.

Then, with my hands crossed, I reached out toward the Black Dragon’s horns, and it made a final plea to me.

“……Just let me have one move.”

“Hmm…”

I grinned sinisterly and proposed to the Black Dragon.

“Then shout ‘I’m not pink; I’m fluffy black.’”

“That, that can’t be!!!”

“Then goodbye.”

“Wait! I’ll do it, so please stop!!!”

With tears brimming its eyes, the Black Dragon began to say what I commanded.

“I… I’m… not pink… but fluffy…”

“Hurry up.”

“I’m not pink; I’m fluffy black!!!… Uwaaaah!!!”

Tears burst forth from the Black Dragon.

The Black Dragon, crying, pleaded with me.

“Sniff… Now you’re letting me go, right?”

It looked so pitiable I couldn’t think of it as a dragon.

With a smile that said “Just this once,” I gently said.

“Give up. There’s only darkness here.”

“You should say ‘This is only this time!'”

The Black Dragon, furious, struggled to free itself from me.

But the more it did, the more force I pressed down on its arms with my knees.

“I don’t negotiate with blacks.”

“So f*ck! I’m saying—”

<Cheonma Laser Dual/>

Before the Black Dragon could finish its words, I unleashed two starlights.

Meteors shot from my hands, completely shattering the Black Dragon’s magnificent horns.

There was no sound, but the visible result was undeniable.

Amidst the shattered horn fragments, the Black Dragon appeared with unfocused eyes.

It had no specific injuries apart from the broken horns, but that alone caused the Black Dragon to faint instantly.

At that moment, the Succubi erupted into panicked cheers.

Although, something felt off about what they were saying.

“A stunning sight of sitting on top of a half-naked woman! So powerful!”

“Tantalus saved us! Lord, you are fantastic!”

“To pierce that symbol of a frail woman with that weapon! I want to be pierced too!”

“What’s the big deal about a beastman! That’s the real beastman!”

“Don’t insult the beastmen!!!!!”

Caressy threw the last remaining french fries at the Succubi in anger.

Of course, Elcia happily caught the flying fries in the middle.

[…You won in an ugly way.］

‘Shut up. As long as I win, that’s all that matters.’

The moment I rose from the fainted Black Dragon, I heard the petite Succubus’s voice.

This time, her voice was surprisingly bright.

“Oh! I had my sunglasses on! What a relief!”

Thank goodness.

Really.
