I reached the top of Pirates

Chapter 319, Chapter 318: We Admit Defeat!

The middle-aged man looked puzzled, but a few seconds later, his eyes suddenly widened:

"What did you say? Your name is Mercer? That famous genius mage who created the Primal Magic Runes?"

Looking at Messer with surprise, Mildian Magic Academy has provided the continent with too many magic talents. Magicians from various human forces go there to learn magic.

Therefore, any geniuses who emerge there will soon be known to the major human powers.

Therefore, as long as there are talented people about to graduate, there will be a lot of powerful figures going to recruit them.

And Mercer is one of the most dazzling graduates from the magic academy recently.

However, Messer's evaluation was positive, while Jelf's was negative.

Unfortunately, he disappeared after graduation.

then.

The middle-aged officer quickly pressed on, "Are you Mercer Portgas, one of the Twin Stars of Mildian?"

"Come on, let's test the magic first."

As they spoke, a crystal ball for measuring magic was respectfully handed over.

Mercer raised an eyebrow, looking at the crystal ball that had been presented to him.

Reach out and grasp; a single thought can transform magic.

The next moment, a dazzling magical light burst forth on the crystal ball.

then.

A collective gasp of astonishment filled the air, but then...

Click click click! Bang!
Cracks appeared on the crystal ball, which was then instantly shattered by magic.

The mages stared in disbelief at the scene, speechless.

The middle-aged officer was shocked, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead. This terrifying magical power was at least a hundred times stronger than his own, not inferior to Lady Eileen's.

How old is he now?

Mercer smiled and apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't control my magic output well."

The middle-aged man quickly smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright. These crystal balls for measuring magic power aren't expensive, and I have spares here."

As he spoke, he pulled another one out from under the table.

Moses smiled, looked at him, and asked:
"So, have I passed? Can I go and learn Dragon Slayer Magic now?"

The officer nodded quickly, his smile beaming.
"Of course, I'll have someone take you to Lady Eileen right now."

Mercer looked at him strangely. So this is how they get to meet the Queen? Isn't that a bit too cheap?

However, it's not entirely incomprehensible to Messer; Mildian is the most prestigious magic academy in the Western Continent.

Under the envious and jealous gazes of the mages behind Mercer.
Mercer was taken to the royal city by a mage.

As they continued forward, they sensed that they were getting closer and closer to the location of the two extraordinary magical forces.

Soon, Moses was taken alone to a courtyard inside the royal city.

What comes into view are two people and a dragon with a very strong presence.

As soon as they arrived,

Moses and the others sized each other up.

She was a beautiful woman with long, flowing, crimson hair.

Underneath the white scarf and cloak was a set of clothes from this era, with a black, cropped, tight-fitting undershirt underneath and a combat skirt from this era on the bottom.

She has a slender and charming figure, and her face exudes a calm and composed demeanor, as well as a blend of allure and innocence.

The dragon was a giant, dark gray-white dragon with straight horns on its forehead and a pair of crescent-shaped horns on either side of its head. It possessed a profound and sacred magical power.

“Lady Irene, Lady Belserion. This is Mr. Mercer.”

After the mage finished speaking respectfully, he turned and left.

Eileen looked at Mercer with curiosity in her eyes. Although he was young, his features were very harmonious and beautiful, and he had a kind of feeling that made people want to get close to him.

"Hello, I am Eileen, the Queen of this country. I know why you've come. Shall we begin now?"

Mercer nodded and said, "Wait a moment."

With that, Moses looked at Belserion and got straight to the point:
"Hello, I heard you know dragon magic. Could you teach me?"

Belserion's attention was focused on Mercer from the moment he entered, and he had a vague, instinctive sense of danger about him.

It's somewhat unbelievable that, apart from a Dragon Slayer Mage of Irene's caliber, there are other humans who could evoke this sense of danger in me.

And the sense of danger he felt was even greater than that posed by Irene's dragon-slaying magic.

The divine power of dragons always brings a greater sense of danger.

but,

Upon hearing Mercer's request, Belserion's dragon eyes narrowed slightly, but Eileen exclaimed in surprise, "Dragon runes?"

Belserion heard Irene's words, and even when he spoke softly, his voice was incredibly deep:
"A tradition of the dragon race, magical script possessing power. By writing or chanting with dragon-attribute magic, one can wield dragon language magic."
The most powerful dragon magic is capable of destroying the world, but it consumes a vast amount of magic power, making it impossible for humans to learn.

However, he paused as he suddenly realized that the magic power possessed by the two people present was no less than that of an ordinary dragon.

Belserion was intelligent and clear-headed. He knew that the emergence of dragon-slaying magic had crossed the line for the dragon race, and that some dragons had already been hunted.

Therefore,
This country will be destroyed by the dragons sooner or later.

Because he was a dragon, he clearly understood the thoughts of his fellow countrymen.

Because he was a dragon, he knew that dragon-slaying magic had shaken the foundation of the dragon race's rule over the world.

Because he was a dragon, he was very familiar with the power and thoughts of the dragon race. Having spent a long time in human kingdoms, he had also learned a human term: "not of my kind."
Their intentions must be different.

How could he not know all this? But his life was saved by Eileen's father, and he had already sworn to protect Eileen for the rest of his life.

Even if it means killing more of our compatriots in the future.

but,

His power is limited. The modifications made by numerous Dragon Slayer Mages have, over time, caused enormous damage to the source of his dragon power.

Even a powerful dragon king can be worn down and killed by a multitude of dragons.

His gaze drifted intently towards Moses:
"Human! I don't know where you got your information about the dragon runes."

At this moment, glancing at Eileen, who was equally curious, he said softly:
"Knowledge is priceless. If you want me to teach you Dragon Script, you can, but you must agree to three conditions."

Of course, you can choose to refuse, but I believe and confirm.

Ordinary dragons certainly don't have as complete a lineage of dragon runes as I do. If you agree, I can also teach you dragon magic related to dragon rune incantations.

Mercer raised an eyebrow, thinking, "Who do you think you are? At most, you'll just be a bit of a nuisance to me."

However, it wouldn't hurt to listen first.

"What are the conditions?"

Belserion looked at Mercer and said softly, "Human, you are very strong. You are the strongest human I have ever seen."

The three conditions are:
1. Protecting Eileen for ten years.

2. Ten years later, another ten years will be added.

3. Continue for another ten years, then another ten.

Moses's lips twitched as he looked at the wise dragon:

"How many decades does a human life have? You want me to spend thirty years with this woman?"
In that case, you might as well just make this woman my woman.

Upon hearing this, Eileen's eyes widened slightly, her face flushing slightly. She looked at Bercelion with displeasure, about to speak, when Bercelion shook his head and said:
"It's not impossible. Just like us dragons, when the mood strikes, we just do it."

“Belserion!!” Eileen interrupted him, her face flushed. “Shut up. We are humans, not dragons.”

Belserion smacked his lips, looking at Eileen with dissatisfaction: "So what? Aren't you also planning a political marriage with that unknown general from the neighboring country?"

I think this human is much stronger than that unfamiliar human.

After all, this world has always respected the strong.

If a marriage alliance is to be formed, then of course a powerful person must be chosen.

I don't believe that general from that damn neighboring country is any better than this kid. In this world, the strong have more mating rights.

At this point, a hint of ecstasy flashed in his eyes: "Just like me, strong and handsome, I had relationships with many beautiful and alluring female dragons when I was young."

As he said this, a smug look flashed in his eyes.

But because of this, she was ambushed by her rivals.

Although he killed those male dragons, he almost died. He was saved if he hadn't run into Eileen's father at that time.
Moses: "."

Eileen: "." At this moment, Belserion looked at Mercer: "Human, what is your decision?"

Eileen pouted as she looked at Belserion, the dragon who had been with her since childhood and who held a father-like role in her heart.

"Seven years. I will protect her for seven years. During these seven years, I can teach her the primal magic I know."

At the same time, you will teach me the dragon script and magic of the dragon race.

My bottom line is this: either you agree or you don't. If you don't agree, then forget it.

Belserion's gaze sharpened, and terrifying dragon-attribute magic surged from his body.

A sacred white beam of magical light shot into the sky from his body, causing the air around it to become incredibly distorted.

Twisted ripples pressed down on Moses with immense pressure.

"Roar--"

Belserion grinned and let out a terrifying dragon roar, causing white ripples to spread through the air.

"Humans, if you want to negotiate with me, then let your strength speak for itself."

next moment,
A ferocious dragon claw, imbued with magic, appeared above Mercer's head, seemingly intent on crushing him to death with a single blow.

Moses looked at him calmly.

The next moment, the dragon claw stopped twenty centimeters away from the leader of the Mercer clan, and a powerful gust of magical wind roared out.

Eileen, who was standing to the side, was blown backward by the strong wind and watched the scene with great tension on her pretty face.

As a human being, she didn't want to see this boy, whom she didn't dislike, get hurt.

Belserion placed his dragon claw on the ground beside Moses, his dragon eyes glaring at Moses, and his deep voice rang out:

"Why not hide?"

"Because I'm not afraid."

"Why shouldn't I be afraid? I am the Holy Dragon."

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."

Moses looked at him indifferently and suddenly said, "Let's go outside and have a fight."

Belserion's dragon eyes narrowed, squinting into a narrow slit. His wings flapped, whipping up a gust of wind as he soared into the air.

"Arrogant fool, come with me."

In the blink of an eye, it flew up to a height of a hundred meters, transforming into a white streak of light and flying towards the horizon.

Mercer laughed as he watched Belserion use magic to travel, as a silver-white magic circle woven from primordial runes appeared beneath his feet.

In a flash!

Mercer's figure disappeared.

Eileen parted her beautiful lips slightly, "Spatial magic? Instant teleportation? And you use it so skillfully."

Wait for me!

Feeling helpless, he quickly cast a spell.

High-level additional position. Hanging in the air.

High-level addition: Speed ​​of light.

Two complex magic circles appeared.

Eileen floated up and flew into the sky, then golden light appeared on her body as she rapidly flew towards the direction where Belserion had disappeared.

……

Rumble!
Bercelion landed in a mountain range several kilometers away from the Kingdom of Dorakunov.

He then looked at Mercer, who had suddenly appeared a hundred meters away from him, his eyes flashing with seriousness:

"Spatial magic?"

Looking at this holy dragon, its strength is top-tier even among those in the six-figure range. If it could comprehend the corresponding conceptual power, it would definitely reach the five-figure level.

However, these dragons did not inherit any knowledge about the power of concepts.

At most, it's just a matter of applying one's own attributes based on a massive amount of magic power and physical strength.

Even if one possesses the concept, it may simply be used as different types of dragon power.

It is true that one's views and perceptions are obstructed.

In Messer's view, the different attributes of dragon power have already touched upon a superficial application of the corresponding concepts.

Unfortunately, these dragons didn't understand; they simply thought it was a basic characteristic of dragon power.

Mercer gazed at Belserion not far away, a terrifying black and red magical power rising from his body. A magic circle flashed by...

Primal Magic. Multiply.

Moses' body suddenly grew exponentially, reaching a height of fifty meters in the blink of an eye, gazing at the giant dragon that stood upright, its height matching his own.

"war."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mercer's figure suddenly appeared in front of him, his right fist wrapped in a high concentration of magic power, crackling with black and red arcs of electricity.

A punch landed on his dragon face, and a ferocious black and red arc of electricity, imbued with the power of the soul, erupted on his face.

Belserion's eyes widened, and a painful cry escaped his dragon mouth as he was sent flying by a single punch.

Flying backwards in mid-air, enduring the pain that reached to the very soul.

Bercelion couldn't quite understand, but it didn't matter; he would roar.

The roar of the holy dragon.

A massive amount of magical power accumulated in his mouth, and a sacred white beam of light shot out from it.

Mercer moved swiftly, rushing towards him, a massive primal magic circle flashing across his right hand, which was held upright like a chopstick.

With the concept of slashing, a magical slash beam with a diameter of 100 meters flew out.

A loud explosion rang out.

The slashing light split the dragon's breath in two, blasting it towards both sides of Mercer's body.

Rumble!
A terrifying explosion occurred.

At this moment, Moses had already arrived in front of Belserion.

The man and the dragon clenched their fists and clashed together.

With a loud bang, Moses and he stumbled backward, then charged at each other again.

The divine dragon power, radiating a white glow, coiled around the dragon's claws and wings.

The Holy Dragon's Claw.

The Holy Dragon's Divine Fist.

The Holy Dragon's Wing Strike.

At the same time, he rapidly chanted solemn, mysterious, and majestic dragon language.

A terrifying surge of magical energy emanated from his body, radiating a divine light, and intricate platinum-gold magic circles filled the sky.

Every now and then, beams of light would fall rapidly from the sky toward Mercer.

Mercer's fists danced like afterimages, carrying terrifying lightning power, easily blocking all of Belserion's attacks.

Every now and then, he'd deliver a hard blow to his dragon face.

When Eileen arrived nearby, she saw the giant Messer and the dragon Belserion fighting each other.

No, it was Moses who was hitting Belserion in different ways.

Eileen stared in disbelief at the scene before her. Could humans really be this powerful?

He knocked the Holy Dragon away with a single punch.

Mercer's figure appeared above his head in a flash, raising his right foot and slamming it down hard on his head.

thump—

Bercelion's head smashed through the earth, leaving a terrifying chasm in its wake.

Belserion was covered in injuries and lay on the ground, panting heavily.

His dragon eyes were blazing with fury. He looked up and saw Moses attacking again. He quickly shouted:

"We concede defeat."
