Day [Life]: Incarnation
Baruma Village and the Evil Dragon Assault

"Then I give up...."

Since I lost to Zena, I finally relented and let the two of them come along. Even if it was Zena's decision. Meli is also happy to be able to come with me so yes, I have no problem.

...****************...

We were on our way to Baruma village. It says that the evil dragon has attacked. This quest also has its own difficulties, which is not to let the dragon burn the forest. The forest itself is where the people work. The village's income is mostly timber, so the residents there are mostly loggers.

"Uncle.... When will we get?"

"Hm? Maybe in 5 hours?"

He answered me on the coachman's seat while driving his horse.

We decided to walk. But on the way we happened to meet uncle Kai who was also in the village. At first she was surprised that the blue-haired elf had become my girlfriend, and a child I adopted. Now he was no longer surprised about it and acted as usual.

"Sir Kai, do you have any business in that village?"

"No need for formal. Act like I'm Luke's friend. The reason I went there was because they said they seemed to be in trouble. I went there to make sure I sold my merchandise at a low price so they could buy my merchandise."

Uncle Kai answered Zena while driving his horse.

As expected of the trader!

Although there was unrest, the traders seemed to be going back and forth from the village. Maybe the reason is the same as Uncle Kai. Taking advantage of some damage. We all saw some traders who went from the opposite direction. They looked hurriedly together with some adventurers.

"What's wrong with them?"

I then asked with uncle Kai who also looked confused and then intercepted one of the passing merchants.

"What's the matter why you look so scared?"

Uncle Kai who came down from his tent and asked the other merchant.

"The village has been attacked by an evil dragon! You guys should turn around right away!"

Or that's what I heard.

"What's!? The village has been attacked!?"

Uncle Kai who heard it was then shocked. Sontak makes me and Zena immediately come out from the inside.

"What's up! Uncle! You're okay, right!?"

"Ah.. I-i didn't... But his village has been attacked..."

Uncle Kai said it with resignation.

"No way..."

Zena then closed her gaping mouth due to uncle Kai's words. He immediately ran towards the village.

"O-Oi!! What is ka-!? Screeched! Uncle Kai! Please take care of Meli! I'll catch up with Zena!"

"All right..."

"How far is it from here to that village!?"

"1 Km from here..."

"Yoh...!"

I then immediately caught up with Zena who had run from the beginning.

"Damn!"

Although I could still see him running, but I was already very behind.

Seen from far away black smoke billowed from there. A pair of dragon wings from afar.

"No way..."

It was I who had managed to get close to Zena who stopped hearing her words. He doesn't seem to believe what happened. Closing his mouth he was desperate.

The dragon had stepped on the house, burning it, sweeping it with its long and large tail. He seemed satisfied with the sight. Zena looks like a trauma. His face was terrified and looked horrified. The screams of the people were heard from far away. Even the dragon's cry was heard as well.

What was the past that went through to the trauma?

As long as he was scared, I then grabbed his hand.

"Calm yourself.... I'm here..."

She was surprised by my touch then immediately hit my chest and rebuked.

"...."

I have to how!

I had become panicked because it was done in a public place. It was an emergency again.

"Uhm.. Athena, Em... I'm hard to move around like this..."

"I'm scared... I'm afraid it'll happen to you again..."

He said it with a stammer.

"I won't lose to the dragon, after all the people are still safe..."

I then tried to calm him down. He had calmed down and now was just the face of fear he showed.

"Let's save them, I'm sure if we're together we can."

"Well..."

He then changed the look of his face to a little calm.

"True, let's exterminate!"

We both decided to come closer and attack the dragon. Sounding up close, the dragon seemed to be speaking.

"Oi oi oi, is a human this weak that can't attack me?"

Or so he said. The village was already like a sea of fire, there were some corpses I met all burning from the fire. This horrifying scene was even only done in one attack. Some of the survivors have been evacuated and now some adventurers are blocking the fire of the dragon with an iron shield.

"Grua!!!!!!"

"Ugh...! Everyone hold their attacks!"

"Well! You weak man! Yumomi!!!!!!"

The conversation was carried out by the adventurer and the dragon. The proud black dragon. He then looked like he was sucking in air and holding it in.

*Mbfossssssssss!!!

A second burst of fire was launched by the dragon. The adventurer who had reached his limit was then thrown and burned because the fire was also accompanied by wind.

*Shelf!!!

A wall was destroyed due to the powerful jolt of the adventurer. His shield was destroyed and then fell.

"Ugh.." - UH...."

"Zena! Quickly treat him! I'll hold this dragon!"

"But!"

"Hurry now!"

"All right!"

Zena quickly moved away from me and immediately treated the adventurer.

"There is no need to treat me, miss, my life is not long. Let me thank you and your friends for trying to protect this village..."

*cough! *cough!

He coughed then vomited blood from his mouth. His eyes had turned like a dead fish that had resigned itself to death.

"No! I'll treat you!"

"Sorrying to my daughter is enough......."

His heart rate had dissipated and his body became limp without any movement.

"It's impossible...."

Zena then shed her tears and immediately approached towards me who was hiding behind the rubble. The other adventurers were also fighting.

"Impossible...."

Zena said it with tears that continued to pour.

"No need to feel guilty... Maybe he can't help..."

I held her hand wet with tears and calmed her down.

"Let's end this together."

Then I continued and smiled. Her tears stopped seeing my smile.

"Yes..."

He then wiped his tears and nodded slowly.

"Okay, then...."

I came out of hiding and shouted.

"Oi!! rotten dragon!!! this is your opponent!!"

The dragon turned to face me.

"Oh... Little fry dare insult me, die!!"

*Mfbussssss!!!

The breath of fire came out and I immediately dodged. A different attack from other monsters. This dragon is strong!

"Oi oi, are you avoiding him? Then feel this!"

The dragon swept its tail towards me quickly.

*Gruuk! *Gruuk!

All the buildings were wiped clean by his tail. Very fast and heavy, impossible to hold it. Even winning from it is only small.

"Damn! This way I won't be able to get any closer!"

"Hahaha what's up with the little fry? Still not giving up? Then, I'll show you how weak you are!"

He then returned to his tail firmly until it completely destroyed and flattened the building and even the trees around it were destroyed.

"Mahaha!"

He laughed wickedly after sweeping everything clean. Now it's just me and Zena. All the adventurers are dead. The casualties are falling here.
