Chapter 42: Visiting dwarven mountain, Killing frost dragons.

Early morning.

Opening his eyes, Lioro kicked away the white blanket and lazily got up from the bed.

Like a total degenerate, Lioro didn't bother to make his bed and directly exited his room, making his way to the ground floor.

On the bottom floor, he met the other members, his sisters, uncle, aunty and Rowena.

Apparently, he was the last one to wake up.

"Good morning, brother."

"Oh yes....good morning."

Lioro greeted Ninya while letting out a yawn.

Ninya smiled then went off holding the wooden box in her hands.

Looking at the busy scene.

Lioro felt a little uncomfortable.

Why did it seem like he was the laziest one here?

Even though he has been working non-stop after transmigrating....

Scratching his chin, Lioro went to the washroom, washed his face, then teleported away.

Inside the Great Forest of Tob.

The space trembled before Lioro's figure appeared on the spot.

Jumping on top of a tree, Lioro looked at the mountain range in the distance.

It was time to hunt frost dragons.

Using multiple teleportation to the farthest point he could see, he made his way to the mountain range.

After some time, Lioro stood on the base of the frost-covered Azerlisia Mountains.

"Summon Skeleton Dragon."

A wall of skeleton erupted from the ground, taking the shape of a tier 6 undead skeleton dragon.

Jumping on top of the skeleton dragon's head, Lioro pointed at the mountain range.

"Go up."

*Roar*

Along with a loud sound, the skeleton dragon spread out its bony wings and took to the air with Lioro.

Because of the undead attribute, the skeleton dragon was completely immune to the effects of cold weather.

After flying around the mountain range for some time, Lioro managed to find his target.

It was a group of demi-humans with a mole-like appearance.

Quagoa.

This group of monsters was probably attacking the dwarves during this time with the support of the frost dragon.

Lioro jumped down from the head of the skeleton dragon, free-falling his way down.

As he got closer, he saw the situation clearly; there were 4 Quagoa surrounding a single Dwarf, pointing their weapons at him in a threatening yet playful manner.

Lioro randomly selected a Quagoa.

Then, the next moment, he dropped from the sky, right on top of the unassuming Quagoa, crushing his body to pieces, killing him instantly.

Before the nearby Quagoa could even react, a sword was placed on his shoulder.

"Take me to your leader."

Lioro said in a calm voice.

"H-human?"

The Quagoa stuttered in fear.

The dwarf on the ground looked at Lioro in surprise.

At the same time, the Quagoa's two companions attacked Lioro with their weapons.

"A bad move."

Lioro said as he waved his sword and effortlessly killed the two attackers.

The last Quagoa fell on his back and stared at Lioro in fear and disbelief.

"Now take me to your lair or directly to the frost dragons."

"I-I know! I'll take you to our leader human!"

Looking at the sword in Lioro's hand, covered with his companion's blood, the Quagoa said in a hurry.

"What about the frost dragons?"

Lioro didn't care about the Quagoa nor the dwarves.

The ones he really wanted to find were the frost dragons

Dwarven runecraft was useless to him, much less the Quagoas, who were at best similar to the lizardmen.

If he hadn't been to the danmachi world and secured a stable source of experience, Lioro would have killed the Quagoas to increase his experience pool, just like he did with the lizardmen.

But now there was no need for such wasteful and unnecessary actions.

Time was precious after all, he could farm way more experience from the dungeon and he also needed to forge the new set of equipment.

So, he focused on finding the frost dragons.

"Frost dragons.....I know....but only leader can go there..they kill anyone else who enters..."

"Doesn't matter, take me there."

"O-okay....."

The Quagoas trembling got up from the ground before guiding him through the cave in the mountin.

Meanwhile, the dwarf who was being tortured before looked at the two of them in confusion, not knowing how to react.

The powerful human just killed the Quagoas, then instead of helping him and taking him back to the dwarven kingdom so that they can wage a counterattack against the Quagoas, the human just left?

I-isn't the script wrong or something?

A multitude of thoughts passed through the dwarves mind as he stared blankly at Lioro's diminishing back.

After Lioro was gone from his vision.

The dwarf pulled himself up from the ground and then hurriedly ran towards a familiar cave, different from the one Lioro went to.

----

While Lioro was following the Quagoa, they met many other groups of Quagoas.

And all of them were killed by Lioro after they tried to stop him.

Seeing the death of his companions, the Quagoa who was leading Lioro was completely scared, glancing at Lioro from time to time with deep fear in his eyes.

"Hurry up. Don't worry, I'll let you go after we reach the frost dragon's den."

"Y-yes..."

A hopeful light passed through Quagoa's eyes as he increased his speed.

After passing through some caves, Lioro arrived before an underground lava lake.

Glancing down at the huge magical creatures swimming in the lava, Lioro narrowed his eyes and fell into thought.

Passing through the lava zone, they arrived in front of the death maze, which wasn't a problem since he had a guide and infinity to block the poisonous gas.

Some time passed by.

Finally, they arrived before a massive metal underground palace.

Royal Capital.

It was a huge place made of metal, exuding a cold aura.

As Lioro was looking at the palace, the Quagoa in front of him stopped.

"L-lord..."

The Quagoa said in a trembling voice, looking at the lord of their race, a Quagoa with golden and white fur, blocking their path with many other Quagoas around him.

"Ezaru, what is the meaning of this?"

The leader of Quagoa, Pe Riyuro, asked in a low voice while looking at Lioro with sharp eyes.

He received a report about a traitorous Quagoa who was leading a human toward the frost dragons while killing his own people.

If they ended up causing his relationship with the frost dragons to worsen, then his dream of taking over the dwarves would become much harder to accomplish.

Looking at the white haired human behind Ezaru, Pe Riyuro said.

"Who are you?"

Lioro thought for a second, then conjured a hollow purple and threw it at Pe Riyuro and his gang.

"What?!"

Feeling the terrible power contained within the purple ball, Pe Riyuro's pupils constricted. moving his body, he tried to dodge in a hurry.

Alas, hollow purple was too fast for him to avoid.

Under Lioro's control, the 10th tier spell 'hollow purple' showed its might, killing all the Quagoas who were blocking their path.

For a good minute, loud screams rang out throughout the place before everything quieted down.

Looking at the clean path in front of him leading to the palace, Lioro made his way forward, ignoring his temporary guide trembling in fear on the side.

After entering the palace, Lioro was making his way down the hallway when he stopped and looked at the front.

There, he saw several frost dragons coming towards him.

They seem to have heard the Quagoa's death noise and were coming to investigate.

"A human? What are you doing here? Why did I hear the sudden loud cries?"

The King of frost dragons, Olasird'arc Haylilyal, said in a loud voice.

Instead of replying, Lioro looked down at his steel sword.

'This will never pierce the dragon's skin.'

Putting it inside his inventory, Lioro took out a black blade with intricate, glowing blue patterns.

Hestia Sword.

This was the first time he was going to use this weapon.

----

Item: Hestia's Sword.

Grade: Legacy

Type: Weapon (Sword)

Equip Requirement: Hestia's Blessing.

Description: A masterwork of the Divine Smith, this sword was forged to embody the unwavering warmth and protection of the hearth. However, due to material constraints, it could not achieve true divinity. Even so, its craftsmanship surpasses all but the greatest artifacts, and it burns with a fire that grows alongside its wielder.

Said to be a blade that never dulls, its power is tied to the one who wields it, ensuring that it remains a steadfast companion no matter how strong they become. Possessing the blessing of the virgin goddess, it can only be wielded by those who have received her blessing.

Item Effects:

Passive:

Flame of Growth – The dagger's attack power and attribute bonus increase with the increase in the user's level.

Magic Conductor - Has excellent magic conductivity.

Unbreakable - Possesses the Unbreakable attribute(Can become dull after repeated use).

----

Lioro used the passive of his High class Cursed Knight, surrounding the Hestia's Sword with cursed energy.

Because of its unbreakable attribute, the weapon was exempted from the weapon degradation penalty of his High class.

He would be relying on his instant death passive to kill the frost dragons as he didn't want to damage their body by using some powerful spell.

"You dare?!"

Seeing Lioro pull out a black sword, the frost dragon king looked at the punny human with contemptful eyes.

Opening his mouth, he was just about to launch a breath attack to teach the human a lesson when the human suddenly vanished.

The sudden scene stunned the frost dragon king, making him look around in confusion.

But the next second.

"Look out!"

Hearing the loud shout from his wives, the frost dragon king instinctively moved his head up.

"Too slow."

Lioro said as he moved his sword, easily piercing the first dragon king's head.

*Roar*

Due to its large size, the brain injury didn't kill the frost dragon king, making him thrash around and cry out in pain.

Unfortunately, no matter how much the frost dragon king moved, he couldn't separate Lioro from him while he was covered by infinity.

The three wives of the frost dragon king looked at the scene with dumbfounded eyes.

They couldn't believe their eyes, seeing their husband struggle under the assault of such a tiny human.

Just when one of them was about to go ahead and help.

The frost dragon king failed the instant death check.

 His body tilted to the side and fell to the ground, causing a small tremor.

Lioro pulled out the Hestia Sword and looked at the three wives of the dead frost dragon king.

Seeing their stunned faces.

Lioro raised the Hestia Sword in his hand, going for the next one.

"P-please wait!"

The words of an overgrown lizard mean nothing to him. if they could transform into human form, then he would have reconsidered, but since they couldn't, they were nothing but simple monsters to him.

Under his relentless assault, the corpses of frost dragons fell one by one.

The iron palace they have been proud of actually ended up becoming their grave because of the constrained space, which didn't even allow them any chance to escape.

18.

That was the number of frost dragons he killed.

Gathering the corpses of the frost dragons inside his inventory, Lioro looked at the small mountain of gold and treasure inside the dead frost dragon king's lair.

His net worth instantly increased by a crazy amount, making him one of the richest people in the world.

After gathering all of his loot, Lioro gave the place a look before disappearing.

Next, he was going to meet the dwarves and borrow their forge.
