"Although I'm a "villain".... But, i-i.... WHO WILL PROTECT THIS CITY!!!".
Dylan shouted as he ran into danger alone with the determination to protect the city and its residents.
As their distance began to close together, Dylan swung both of his swords while also turning his body.
With that move, Dylan managed to slash through some wolf-like monsters.
Finished with the wolves, Dylan swung one sword to split 2 bears.
While one other sword he threw towards a bunch of goblins that came.
But, from the back there was a Troll who was about to hit him. Fortunately, Dylan managed to escape.
Unable to breathe a sigh of relief, a Cyclop sent him flying with a kick. Although he was successfully arrested, Dylan had rolled around several times.
That moment was used by Dylan to take back the katana sword he threw towards the goblin earlier.
Successfully obtaining his sword again, Dylan put up the horses and started activating his non-attribute magic.
"Double Phantom Blades".
By swinging his two katana swords that have been given magic. Dylan was able to cut through many monsters at once and managed to break up the frontline troupe of monsters.
Then a sidetracked look rose, where he saw a group of monsters flying like Wyvren who was about to pass.
Not willing to waste any more time, Dylan used one of the monster corpses to become a stepping stone.
With the addition of Power Up magic. His leap reached a Wyvren.
Dylan directly stuck one of his swords into Wyvren's neck. In pain, the monster shouted while exhaling a breath of fire.
Aware of the opportunity, Dylan used the breath of Wyvren's fire to burn the monsters beneath.
"BEING LIKE A MONSTER. AND KILL EACH OTHER!!!!".
And it proved to be effective, many monsters were charred to death be it Trolls, Cyclops, and others.
Realize, Wyvren's on his ride is dying. Forcibly and forcefully Dylan swung the Wyvren's body and threw it at the several other Wyvrens flying next to him.
Plan succeeded some Wyvren who hit, immediately fell to the ground. Utilizing the weight of the fall Dylan landed right on Wyvren's body that fell earlier and directly pierced him with a sword.
From the look on his face, Dylan was already exhausted and he immediately took the healing potion from the pouch and drank it immediately.
(I thought something was strange. This many monsters gathered in one place. This is unnatural. Does this have anything to do with the territorial seizure? Also, I don't feel their fighting instincts. They just made a line and went towards the city. No doubt their destination was Linic city. If it is true, what good is it to attack the Linic city near this port?).
"Most importantly, maybe there's someone out there "controlling" these monsters".
The action that Dylan did, made the monsters immediately turn their attention to him.
Then a group of monsters like giant ants and praying mantis were about to attack him. Quickly, Dylan used wind magic on his sword and swung it back.
"Wind Cutter's".
A wild and sharp gust of wind instantly slashed the insect monsters into small pieces.
Realized that he was too deep in his thoughts. Dylan immediately lunged forward and split apart the group of monsters.
Every monster that was in front of him, Dylan immediately swung his sword. And cut them all apart. Sometimes Dylan could slash 2 types of monsters at once by using each of his swords.
Dylan used Niten-Ichi Ryuu's sword technique which he learned while he was still a part of Kendo's club in his previous life. To banish the monsters that attacked him.
Niten-Ichi Ryuu is a fighting technique that combines 2 katana swords. And used interchangeably like one sword to defend and one sword to attack.
When viewed from afar Dylan was like swinging his two swords randomly while continuously moving his body to dodge various attacks.
This technique was very effective and thanks to it Dylan was able to defeat a great many monsters that came at him.
However, despite using this technique and strengthening it with magic. Still, sometimes Dylan was also hit by attacks from monsters that attacked him at once from various directions.
Fatigue and injuries cannot be avoided.
Dylan still continued to attack, while enduring the pain, numbness and fatigue that slowly began to gnaw.
Although his physique and strength increased after he evolved into Half-Dragon it only gave his body a little longer time to respond to pain and fatigue.
(H... Ha.... Ha... Am I tired?)
"Sad. No Dylan. You can't give up here. I promised to protect everything. Although life is at stake. So, I can't fall here.... I'm..... CAN'T LOSE HERE!!!!".
With a new determination, Dylan again ran forward to attack the group of monsters alone.
Without him noticing from the top of the city walls there were several knights who saw him.
"wait. Isn't that it, Mr Dylan?".
"Yes, that's right. Why are you fighting those monsters alone?".
"I don't know, but we have to report this to Mr. Hyoga".
The knights immediately ran to go to meet Hyoga and report what he had just seen.
Meanwhile, downtown. More precisely in a clock tower in the middle of Linic city.
Sonia was standing at the top of the tower staring straight at the direction where Dylan was fighting alone.
(---------)
1 Hour has passed.
There were already many monster corpses scattered everywhere and the ground became red due to the large amount of monster blood splattered.
Even so, the monsters still came to fight with an amount that seemed not to decrease in the least even though many had already killed Dylan.
Fighting for 1 hour without rest makes Dylan's body more exhausted. Not to mention the cuts and bruises he received from the attacks of the monsters.
There were already nearly 10 bottles of healing potions that he drank to minimize the pain he felt.
(Damn, tired not playing.... Added these monsters as if there was no end to it).
Simultaneously a group of goblins was about to attack him. Fortunately, Dylan managed to dodge and counterattack the goblins.
But, from the other direction. Dylan was suddenly struck by a blow from a wooden mace that was swung by a Troll.
Dylan could not escape the exhaustion he felt. And because he could not survive Dylan bounced very hard and several times rolled on the ground.
An excruciating pain ran through Dylan's entire body. The cusp of Dylan's pain until his mouth spits out a large amount of blood.
Seeing Dylan fall down, the monsters came closer. With wild instincts, they knew this was the chance to finish off Dylan and break into the city.
Having been so exhausted, Dylan could not dodge or move he could only stand back on it, supported by his sword as a pedestal.
"Looks.... It's finally".
Dylan knew that he could no longer fight back, even though the memories of all the good things he had experienced flashed through his mind.
It could not ignite the flames of fighting spirit within him. He knew that now his life was on the edge of a horn. And Dylan was prepared to accept his death.
But, in his little heart. Dylan was delighted, although he ended up being pounced on by monsters at least he "died in the fight".
As Dylan prepared to accept his death. I don't know why he felt the overwhelming pressure of magic energy.
And from the sky, a shadow fell down in front of Dylan.
"Don't touch my son. You ugly bastard".
Simultaneously the shadow figure swung his sword. An attack coated in ice magic instantly attacked those monsters and instantly killed them.
Dylan was very surprised by the change in situation. Then, the shadowy figure began to speak.
"Geez, you reckless boy. As powerful as you. You won't be able to fight a large swarm of monsters alone".
The figure spoke as he turned to Dylan who was behind him. And as the light began to shine slowly, the figure was none other than Hyoga's father who was medium-sized a sword.
"Dad. What are you doing here?".
"uh? Of course come to help you".
"Then, how about para-".
Unable to continue his words, suddenly a sharp basin-shaped fire slash attack attacked the monsters and burned them.
A moment after her, a figure of a girl appeared while carrying a large Scyt.
"No need to worry the citizens will be taken care of by Mother and Knight Squad. That's why me and Dad can come here to help you, Nii-san".
The girl who answered Dylan's question was Filaret who appeared right after Hyoga.
(---------)
It took him a few seconds, so that Dylan could digest what Hyoga and Filaret said then he could only speak.
"No. Don'worry. You go back and help the people. I can handle this whole thing".
"Don't say something as arrogant as that.".
Ignoring Dylan's words, Hyoga immediately advanced and charged towards the monsters. Then Philaret was behind him.
With his sword technique Hyoga was able to defeat several monsters in a single swing.
That certainly surprised Dylan.
Not because of his father's sword technique or Filaret's. It was because of the sword Hyoga had brought.
(Wait first? After I look carefully. The sword looks familiar to me. It's like I've seen it somewhere. But when?).
Dylan tried to think hard and tried to scan the memory in his brain. After a while, Dylan's eyes suddenly opened. He finally knew what the sword was.
The sword Hyoga uses is the Light-Ice Sword. A kind of holy sword magic item in the game "Long Life Braver" used by a character in the game was titled "Strade of Ice and Light". Who once had great merit to save the Ingrid Work from the Inferno Demon Kingdom Invasion.
That sword could not be called an item that a Hero could use. Because the sword is only mentioned in the story and shown as a relic from the "Master of the Sword of Ice and Light".
And what makes Dylan even more shocked is that at this time he just remembered that the full name of the character "Strade of Ice and Light" is Hyoga van Arcadia who is none other than his own father.
(Sek, break back. The famous character "Strade Master of Ice and Light" in that game, father? Why do I remember now? And why don't you ever tell me one bit?).
Then Dylan looked straight at Hyoga and Filaret fighting monsters together.
Shoving his head a few times. Dylan stood up again and clasped his two katana swords.
"Now there's no time to ask".
Dylan immediately caught up with them and launched an attack towards the monsters. Seeing Dylan rise again made Hyoga and Filaret smile.
"Oh, looks like you still have the strength to fight back, yeah".
"of course".
"Dad be calm".
Dylan gasped at Hyoga's words.
"Why? Is it because of the number of monsters I've defeated?".
"Hmmph...... You strong-ass son. Actually there are many things that your father, Filaret, and mother would like to ask. But now, I don't care".
"Dad is special this time, we'll just let this kind of thing go. But, when it's done. Nii-san should explain it to us".
They chatted while continuing to fight with the monsters that attacked them.
"Dylan, let your father give you some advice. You're "strong", I admit it. But, I'm not suggesting that you rely on your strength continuously. I know, you want to get this all done by yourself without bothering anyone else, including your own family. It's not just for you, but for Fira-".
Hyoga then shouted while slashing at the monster in front of him.
"NEVER TAKE YOUR PROBLEMS ALONE. TRY TO RELY ON OTHERS. BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW STRONG, YOU CAN'T BEAR EVERYTHING BY YOURSELF!!...... Am I wrong?".
Both Dylan and Filaret were jolted by Hyoga's advice. They do not believe, the figure of a father who is sometimes clumsy in front of his two children can give advice that is so stuck in their hearts.
Unknowingly, Dylan smiled.
"That's right. I'm not alone now....... I count on you two. Dad, Fira".
"alright".
"Anything for Nii-san".
Now the three of them were working together to fight against the horde of monsters. And turn each other's back.
"""JUST COME HERE. YOU UGLY MONSTERS!!!""".
With a shout together the three against a horde of monsters that surrounded them with only reckless capital.
(----------)
Following instinct, the monsters lunged and attempted to subvert Dylan, Filaret and Hyoga.
"They Came".
""understand"".
With Dylan's cue, the three prepared for the coming of the monster attack.
One by one the monsters approached and attacked them, and of course they continued to attack every monster that came without breaking their fighting triangle formation.
Sometimes they change positions and try to protect each other.
For the person who is used to fighting. He would say that the cooperation of Dylan, Hyoga and Filaret was very harmonious and very well coordinated.
They continued to attack the monsters that came without forgetting their defenses. If there was a gap, the others would immediately cover it.
Likewise, when there was an attack from monsters flying in the sky, they took turns using their respective elemental magic to prevent them from entering.
Sometimes, Dylan asked Filaret or Hyoga to help him to provide a stepping stone, for Dylan to slash at the monsters that were passing through the air.
And after 2 hours of that very long fight. They managed to defeat the monsters and the last monsters in the form of Cyclops managed to be split into 2 by Dylan and Filaret.
"That's the last one".
"Horeee... We succeeded!!!".
Dylan showed a relieved and excited expression after he finished stopping the Panic Monster Incident. At once, it managed to get rid of the incoming Death Flag.
"Thank you Dad, Fira. If it wasn't for your help. I definitely can't handle all this".
"Hehehe.... It doesn't matter, Nii-san".
"It's a duty, a father to help his troubled son. And next time try to be honest with us, okay?".
"I understand. Then, it's the victory of the three of us".
While drinking a bottle of Exilir they also celebrated the victory.
But, suddenly a mysterious voice appeared out of nowhere.
"It's too soon for you to celebrate a victory".
A flash of shadow appeared and attacked Hyoga very quickly. Dylan, Filaret and even Hyoga did not have time to respond.
In the blink of an eye, Hyoga bounced very hard. It also made Dylan and Filaret surprised instead of playing.
(----------)
"""DAD!!!""".
Both Dylan and Filaret were immediately startled and spontaneously called out to Hyoga.
Unable to breathe a sigh of relief, the shadow immediately struck Filaret and also threw him.
"FIRA!!!".
Dylan also immediately shouted to Filaret who was also bouncing.
(Damn, this is bad.... It turns out that my enemy is not just a monster.... The moment I sensed her existence, she was already within my reach.... But, even so. I still can't warn Father and Filaret... He..).
"Hey, look where you are. Son?".
(.... He's very fast).
The shadow immediately struck Dylan with a very hard and fast upward kick.
Fortunately, Dylan was able to dodge with the salto several times back. And that scene left the shadow shocked for a moment.
After correcting his posture, Dylan immediately turned his gaze towards the shadow that had attacked him just now.
"Hehe... Turns out you could have avoided the attack just now, yeah. I thought you were strong. Stronger than the old man and the girl I just threw".
Dylan was surprised to see who the figure of the person who threw Hyoga and Filaret.
(The look of this man.... I'm sure I've seen it somewhere.... But I don't remember who he is).
Dylan muttered in his mind and tried to find something in his memory about the man in front of him right now.
"Especially you managed to survive the attack of the monsters just now..... And you also saved the townspeople by making a very deep ditch and filling it with water.... Indeed, if you build a Ditch in front of the city wall in the future, the monsters or even people who want to attack this city will not be able to enter..... And if anyone manages to cross, you just finish him off..... I have to admit it's a good plan..... It's just, you didn't expect that the monsters were controlled by someone, did you? So, am I right?".
Dylan could only squint his back teeth upon hearing all the conclusions the man in front of him had drawn.
"Who.... Whoareyou?".
Without further ado, Dylan immediately asked the identity of the man.
"Oh, me?... True, it would be rude not to tell me my name....".
Then the man started posing grandly and introduced himself.
"Greetings, son!? My name is Oscar Niville Dragonia.... A holy knight belonging to the Kingdom of Rachael... At once, the one who controlled the herd of Monsters earlier".
Dylan immediately widened his eyes when he knew who the person before him was.
Not out of fear, but rather the person in front of him was a supporting character who was supposed to help the hero.
(Wait a minute!? What the fuck? How is someone supposed to help a hero in the future. He even attacked Arcadia region).
"Don't joke with me, motherfucker".
Dylan involuntarily let out a mutter of his annoyance.
At that time, he immediately concluded that the storyline in the game must have a bad ending for the future.
