Chapter 69: Chapter 44: Get out of my way, Hero.

Previously after author not updating for a damn while: 

Cecilia sleeps quietly on her luxury bed with her lovely maid, Kazari. Having the nicest lone tea parties they could have together. Cecilia tempting her maid into doing things Kazari secretly wanted to do deep in her heart such as being fed by her highness- and being spoiled by the princess despite many protests.

Princess Cecilia was feeling the most relaxed sibling of the three.

The third princess Catherine was on the deadline for her second book. Cooped up all night finishing the drafts and editing the chapters. 

Alfred, managed the Hill's estate. And Kein's adoptive father was on a business trip to where he will return in months time.

Veronica visited her husband often in making the school construction that was instructed by Kein while taking care of her adopted son Matthew. Thanks to magic they'll be done by the time Kein arrives back home.

The other side characters minded their life. Valentina the rich merchant and the former sister church believer nun Gisela was planning to have children with Valentina soon using a ritual but that's another story someday.

Lenard, Kein's older cousin and Ellis his lover are having a nice book club reading while doing work together in the gardens being romantic to each other.

Madam Prisha was still at their [Magicare] beauty store still running and now became well known as an underground gay bar. Their Grandma Chio who still gives free fortune card readings to any good soul that passes her way.

Meanwhile Kein- suddenly while going through the only path to the [Winshern Kingdom] to escort the girl she loves to her engaged fiancé a dragon pops up out of nowhere and a stampede was happening.

Safe to say that in her side. It's certainly not doing well for our heroine.

Kein's POV

I swallowed the lump forming over my throat once the realization of an A rank beast was actually blocking our only path. "What kind of dragon is it?" one soldier questioned and I clenched my teeth unsheathing both of my swords at the ready. 

Vanilla, my Pegasus glared in caution with the dragon. 

As if the soldier was jinxing, the dragon decided to raise its head a little before it tried to hold down a huge chunk of fire that was being made inside its mouth with its magic. Vincent was the first one to react commanding the whole army.

 "A FIRE DRAGON! MAGES SHIELDS UP AND SHIELD CORP PROTECT THE PRINCESS!" (Vincent) yelled. 

Holding both of my sword I kicked Vanilla's torso lightly, "Up." 

I needed to get out of there before they enclose the shield once your inside you can't get out. Vanilla flapped her wings steadily, while I observed and studied the dragon. 

The other soldiers, adventurers, and mages casted [Shield] even adding a protective layering with physical shields inside of it- just to make sure Rose's carriages won't even get scratched. 

Well, they should because if Rose gets hurt there will be hell to pay. 

It took them a few seconds before successfully casting it having a big dome that can protect them from the upcoming attack by the dragon. Without time to waste I made my own moves to go on the offense. "Hyah!" 

We flew forward into the dragon that stood about 50ft just growing past over the trees. Having brown scales, and wings that can spread about to 30ft on each wing. Its a male dragon too. "It's weird why is he on the ground and it's almost near hibernation season shouldn't he be in a cave?" 

The breeze as we took flight almost made me eat my own long hair. I swear one of these days I'll cut it.

The dragon was done harvesting its magic and breathed fire into the shield attempting to destroy it. "Look out!" 

The dragon was taking aim. Tch, If I'm on the ground I can't properly absorb all of its magic. I need to go up to its mouth, enter it's stomach alive to find the core, absorb and then kill it there. I don't need my swords to be out so I'll place them back again.

"Vanilla I'll absorb the attack. You know what to do." I told my Vanilla and she nods a little, eyes focused on the target glaring at the dragon. Knowing that I have her on board I stand up on the saddle balancing myself. 

I wonder... if Rose is somewhere down there watching me. Is she worried? 

Will she worry? Ugh not these thoughts again. I shook my head and focused on the mission. 

When Vanilla have us close on the dragon's mouth... I jumped. 

"ROARRRR!" The dragon roared and when he fired his shot I raised my hand and casted one of my spells. I kept my eyes open despite the cold air wanting to pierce through it with pain.

I clenched my teeth the fire was right in front of me, "[Absorb]!" 

The fire went through my hand as I absorbed all of it. 

The dragon looked confused when suddenly I appeared and that his fire was all gone. Hah nice try you lizard. I wrapped my lips around my fingers to create the finger whistle gesture calling out to vanilla. 

I whistled.

I could hear her neighing, my back was suddenly met with the hard leather of her saddle. I laughed to myself thinking holy shit I just did that. When do I ever get to jump and absorb a dragon's flame?

Then again just that one breath already took one fourth of my storage compartment for magic. Of course, I could [Cancel] it instead but I think I can sell this for a really high price for witches and apothecary places. [Dragon's Breath] also known as it's fire are really expensive.

I could use this as funds for the school too. It's not my first time absorbing one and selling it. When I was just a knight in training we were transported to a place full of low classed dragon types usually you place these kind of fire are placed in a jar. 

Imagine what a ranked A dragon's breath could do. I smiled knowing that this trip wasn't a waste after all despite all those awkward bits I had with the second princess- at least she has her fund problem solved.

I quickly fixed myself into riding position holding Vanilla's leash focusing on landing on top of its head. "Good job girl remind me to give you more apples when we're done." I caressed her mane and I can hear her neighing happily moving closer once again.

I looked down for a bit to see that all the soldiers were cheering on me. I see Vincent holding up his hand on his forehead trying to block the sun to get a better view. Is he glaring? Oh I think he is.

"I'll um... I think I'll deal with whatever scolding he's going to give me later." I muttered to myself holding the leash tighter.

When we were close to the head. I suddenly saw giant spikes of ice tear into the dragon's wings. Blood oozed out of its sensitive wing parts and I know who's spell that belonged too. "Nice one Vincent!" 

I cheered when the dragon suddenly screamed from pain. "ROARRR ROARRR GRAHHH!" 

It started thrashing around the place, well tried because Vincent summoned another Ice spell that got its feet stuck into the ground. Now that the dragon has it's wings broken it won't be flying anywhere.

I grinned knowing that Vincent was giving me a chance to get inside the dragon. Thanking him in my heart I ordered Vanilla to push through. 

"See you when I slit it inside it's stomach, Vanilla!" I yell in her ear, getting in position I immediately jump down from her saddle once again and this time I landed right on top of its head.  

I could see the top of many trees, leaves and dust on my direction. 

I waited for the right time when it opened its mouth to shout another roar. The dragon must've noticed my presence because its right claws was going towards my direction. "Shit."

I quickly slid down to his nose. Taking out my holy sword to pierce its skin stopping my fall. The blood oozed through and it gave a loud scream. "RAAA RAW RAR!" I had to cover my other ear wincing from the pain its doing to my eardrums.

I jumped inside it's mouth safely leaving the holy sword temporarily there. I'll get it after I slit this dragon to half. I should hurry before it decides to manifest magic and burn me to a crisp. I unsheathed my cursed sword [Nirvana] manifesting the [Dragon Breath] before into the sword. I'm only going to use this as my temporary source of light 

"Whoa so this is what a dragon's mouth feels like huh? It stinks too."

I took a step into it's tongue looking down on it's throat. "I know right it definitely stinks a lot. Who knew dragons don't know how to brush its teeth then again a toothbrush big enough doesn't exist in this world."

I looked beside me to see a random blonde girl smiling by my side. I nodded agreeing with her answer, "Yeah... it doesn't exist in this world." I replied looking back into the throat raising my sword with fire a little more. 

Wait. Toothbrush? Blonde girl? 

My body jerked back feeling uncomfortable with her sudden stare. 

I pointed my cursed sword at her, "You're one of the heroes." the light from the flame flashes a part of her face. Her expression was grinning while holding her red sword with black stripes. 

"Nice cursed sword. You can place magic on it?" she says admiringly while keeping her hand at the handle of her blade watching the dragon flame dance in my blade. "Mine is just cursed that when the sword breaks I die too. How about yours what kind of curse does your sword have?"

I blinked a few times before realizing she was trying to start a conversation with me. Is she serious right now? "How did you even get in here that fast..."

The image of Rose suddenly flashed through my mind before I shook my head looking at this stranger I've only seen one or two times. Rose's safety comes first the dragon is already on the bridge of chaotic destruction outside.

I don't have time for a hero to make friends with me. "No offense but I don't need to waste my time talking with you. I have to slay the dragon before anyone gets hurt. If you're not here to help the best to get out of my way, hero." 

I jumped down to the stomach holding the blade in front. I didn't realize that she jumped at the same time with me. "My name is Avery Williams what's yours?! I actually know you already but I want to hear your introduction!" she screams while falling into the pits of disgusting stomach. 

I didn't respond and when I could see the dragon's stomach acid down I quickly twisted my sword and stabbed it's muscle stopping my fall. She imitates my movements tilting her head waiting for a reply with her body hang around the blade. "So your name?" (Avery) asks again and I don't respond. I need to find a place where I can-

"Hey I said your name!" she cheerfully waved her arm around looking at me still waiting for an answer.

A vein must've popped on my head because this girl is literally more into conversation than saving the others outside. "Listen you said you already know my name. I don't have time to talk with a dragon roaming around that could anytime hurt the second princess. I have to kill this dragon first."

She mutters a 'hmm' before asking again, "So if I kill this dragon you'll talk to me?" (Avery)

I was rendered speechless before I could even answer she takes her sword off the flesh falling down into the pits of acid. "[Float]."

She was floating. I felt envious that she can cast spells like that freely rather than just hanging on a sword here. I should help. 

"[Hero Art of the Sword: Salvation's Swing]." she holds the sword in front of her chest holding the blade tightly her other palm facing the back of the blade. Then she swings- cutting the stomach in half like I was intending.  

Blood oozed everywhere, even the acid were acting weird. I could hear the dragon screeching but it's not yet over. I looked over to the direction of Avery who was floating happily but enough of that. "Hero it's not yet over! The dragon can regenerate faster than normal monsters because of it's core! Help me find it!" I yelled over to her and she takes the advice seriously.

"Hold on let me cast [Float] on you so you can travel easier." (Avery) moves over to my direction but I stop her there. "No need. You won't be able to cast it onto me. I'll just end up absorbing it."

Avery stares at me curiously. "What a weird magic you have. You can absorb it and use it for yourself yes?" 

"Yeah I can use it for my own thing but I can only transfer it into my sword only. Its the only compatible weapon I have with me." I replied while hovering my eyes all over the place trying to find the dragon's core. "In short if you casted [Float] on me. I'll only absorb the spell and I can make my sword float instead."

Where is it? I was already beading in sweat my arm feeling tired the more I hung from the flesh of the dragon. "Damn do you see it? I can't find it everywhere."

"Isn't that it?" (Avery) says pointing to where my sword was stabbing. 

Wait it's been here this whole time? "Ah. Well um that's a little awkward. I didn't see that there I mean it's pretty dark in here so..."

We destroyed the dragon's magic core so that it won't regenerate anymore. Avery decided to carry me out holding my arms before we floated out of the dragon's body coming right where we entered from. We're not taking the other way out- ugh.

I held my sword tightly before Avery asks again. "We killed the dragon so I think I deserve to know your name?"

I almost forgot about that part, I suppose she did kill the dragon on her own. That flame... Those sword moves are nothing I've seen before. I will note to myself never mess with the heroes. "Apologies for the late introduction Hero Avery Williams. My name is Kein Hills commander of the Lion Brigade." 

The moment I finished my introduction we finally got outside of the dragon's stomach. The breath of fresh outside air takes over my body. Dragon flesh inside did not smell good that's for sure. 

My armor also smells now, it'll be hard to remove the stench and clean off it's blood. Avery lets me down on the ground. I flicked my arm around trying to remove the left over blood. "Ugh that smells horrible."

I look over the the dragon's half cut body. I walked over to it's head to get my holy sword, swinging it cutting the air before I sheathe it back on my waist. I pat it slowly feeling more secure that I have both of my swords back in place.

Now... what to do with with that girl. 

Avery Williams, I've seen her once or twice by accident on the adventurer's guild. She has only been summoned a year before but I think I'm older than her. 

"Kein Hills." the summoned hero calls my name giving me a faint smile. I give her a fake smile my stomach feeling troubled. "Is there anything else that you might need summoned hero?"

Slowly she frowns before confronting me. "You're also... not from this world right?"
