The Hero Took Everything from Me, So I Partied with the Hero’s Mother! Chapter 268

Edgar's POV

This is bad... Really bad! I can't believe my dominant arm got ripped off like this!

How did it co to this?

My arm was swallowed whole... I guess I'm destined to be a one-ard hero from now on.

It's ridiculous... This Sky Dragon used to be gentle and easy to handle.

I don't know about regular people, but at least that's how it was for .

I can't believe the dragon I've been riding for years would suddenly bare its fangs.

What on earth happened?

Now, I'm running away from the Sky Dragon.

'Grrrrrrrrrr!'

Every ti that dragon growls, more dragons appear.

Now there are six Wyverns, two more Sky Dragons... and two more Earth Dragons.

It's all over. The end is near.

Although I call myself the Hero (Yuusha) Clan, I'm not true hero.

I can't fight against dragons without proper preparation.

Facing ten dragon species... and being attacked from both the sky and the ground, there's no way to survive.

Furthermore, all the dragons are raging and coming at .

Fighting here ans certain death.

What should I do?

Should I escape to the imperial capital and try to scrape by? It's impossible.

They've locked onto .

"Ggghh... Haah... Haah!"

No good. I managed to escape using the trees, but they're sparse here.

There's no point in running away...

I don't want to die in a pitiful manner.

I can't accept such a miserable death for myself.

"I don't know why you betrayed ... but even so, I'm soone who was called a Hero... I won't run away anymore!"

With my remaining arm, I draw my sword... and challenge the dragons.

This is where I will et my end...

"Guh... Haaah, haaah."

It's over.

"Ahahahaha, I truly couldn't match the dragons..."

Despite my best efforts, a single strike from the Earth Dragon shattered my bones... I can't stand anymore.

After seeing my condition, the Sky Dragons and Wyverns flew away.

All that's left is to be devoured by the Earth Dragon.

"I don't want to... I don't want to die... I'm not afraid of death... but I don't want such an ending!"

'Grrrrr!'

"The Wings of Lighttt!"

I felt a hallucination coming.

Between and the Earth Dragon, a shining bird fluttered its wings.

The Wings of Light are a technique that only the 'true Hero' can use.

Of course, I can't use it, either.

"Zect-sama..."

In my mont of death, I saw the image of Zect-sama, the Hero from my childhood, in my eyes.

And then, I lost consciousness.

Serena's POV

This is not good.

It's such a rare opportunity to learn about the Hero Clan, but it would be bad if I killed him.

I won't make it in ti like this.

I'm sorry...

"The Wings of Lighttt!"

I released the Wings of Light that I learned from Uncle Zect between the Earth Dragon and the man nad Edgar.

"I'm sorry, you were angry for my sake... Thank you!"

When I stroked its head, the Earth Dragon happily purred.

'Gwagwa.'

"There, there, I'll do sothing for you next ti. You're safe now."

As I conveyed that ssage, it happily nodded and left.

The problem is this man.

He's unconscious... If I leave him like this, he'll die.

Sigh... I have no choice.

"Perfect Heal."

Including the severed hand, his body started to regenerate.

Now he should be fine.

"Wake up!"

I kicked the man.

"Zect-sama?!"

"Why are you half-asleep?"

"Huh? Kid... Ah, right, Serena... Wait, didn't I die just now?"

"You were on the verge of death, but I saved you! With Perfect Heal!"

"Pe-pe-pe-perfect Heal."

"Yeah, but so what?! What's the matter?"

"Um... Did you, by any chance, release the Wings of Light earlier?"

"I already told you, so what?"

So what? What's that supposed to an? Seriously.

"Ahahahaha, Serena-sama is the 'True Hero,' after all! I, Edgar, pledge my lifelong loyalty to you."

"Hold on... Why did it turn out like this?"

I don't understand.

For now, since he doesn't seem hostile... well, let's hear the details.
