Part 39

**Part 39** is the thirty-nineth part of the Karsearin: The Biography of the Super Dragon.

## Plot

Ahaaaaa~ A woman's scream resounding in the middle of an ambitious mountain,, ah, how trite, ordinary, and common a story unfolds. However, the reason why there are many stories of a woman screaming in the mountains and a hero rescuing them means that people are easily defeated by monsters in the mountains. Aren't the three places where the majority of women suffer in the bard's song are the mountain, the bar, and the mountain road that is sparsely populated? Why the hell do women go to bars? (This is a fantasy world where women don't go to bars) Anyway, the woman's scream resonated quite sharply in the forest, and after dinner, Arin, who is lying around in a blanket and playing with the spirits of flame - Gabein keeps nerve-wracking for fear that the blanket would burn next to him- Hearing the sound, he looks up. He asks what does this sound like. He says it looks like a woman is being chased by a monster. He says oh yeah, that's not a big deal,, Arin lay down on the blanket again and starts playing around with the flame sub-spirit Kasa while Gabein looks blank for a moment. Of course, Gabein has no intention of rescuing her either. So he was determined to stop him from saying that Arin would save her, but he turns around and lay down as if it was nothing at all. He asks aren't he concerned. He asks huh, is that angerous for them too. He says he doesn't know yet. He says well, it bothers him when he hears it.

Help me~ A desperate voice. Gabein softly reaches for the hilt. He's Gabein who, deep down, wants to be saved, but he has work to do for him. If he is killed or crippled by needless fighting in a place like this, his vengeance is in vain. So it is Gabein's creed that he never draws his sword unless it is necessary. However, now he is secretly hoping that the woman will see this bonfire and run this way. He asks if she can come all the way to them. He says that's right she must have seen this bonfire of them. He then asks if she will bring monster as well. He says that if it's a monster that isn't afraid of fire, it's a possible story. He says, uh, he'd rather she get eaten on the way, then it'll be easier. Gabein's body stiffened for a moment. Then a cold voice comes out of his mouth. He asks what he said. Seeing Gabein's stern face, Arin stings. He says that just,, it will be easier if she gets eaten before she gets here... look at that, it seems like she's coming this way now. He asks if he said anything wrong.

The moment Gabein is about to open his mouth, a woman jumps out from among the deep shadows in the dark forest. She is a woman in her 20s who is forcibly hiding light skin tone that is visible through torn clothes. She's probably from a nearby farmhouse. There are bruises and abrasions all over her body, but no wounds that are too big to endanger her life. She seems to be a pretty quick woman. While Gabein speculates about this and that, she spots Arin and Gabein and runs to them in a huff. She calls him knight and shouts for help. Behind her breathless voice, ten footsteps sound follow. She says save her,, sob, sob,, please. Hisssss- Gabein's two-handed sword is pulled from his shoulder. He tells Arin to call a spirit. At Gabein's short words, Arin sends Kasa back and summons Salamander.

Finally, the figures of the pursuers begin to appear through the shadows of the trees. Little by little light shines in what used to be a dark forest, and soon the shadows of the trees begin to fall to the ground. He says damn it, Karanatas. Arin thinks for a moment that Gabein's voice seemed to be shaking a little, and in the meantime, several fireballs soon begins to appear between the shadows of the trees. He says they look odd. Since it is a creature he has never seen before, Arin is intrigued first. A monster appeared in front of Arin's eyes that looked just right with after merging a dog and a human, tentacles attached, sprinkled with oil, and set on fire. Except, of course, that the flame is blue. He says it's nine in all. Gabein swallows and takes out two-handed sword in his hand, then calls Undine and creats a thin shield. He asks what those monsters are. He says knows that it is Karanatas, a creature originally created by an ancient sorcerer, and since it is not a natural life form, they do not have females, so he hunts human women and makes him produce offspring, and somehow he thinks that the woman does not suffer much damage,, It's a cryptic story that seems like he know it or not, so Arin decides to think about it again after a while. Gabein is worried. Karanatas belongs to the upper ranks among monsters. He doesn't know if he can win one or two, but there are too many now. Besides, there are two of them. He tells Arin that he cannot use flame spirits, and that flames do not do any damage to them, but instead become food. He asks Gabein if he can win all by himself. Gabein doesn't answer Arin's question. Arin sees the serious expression on Gabein's face and asks again. He asks if they are opponents he can't beat. He says that they're not that he can't win, but that there is a chance that his life will end here. Arin, who kept asking annoying questions as he became a burden to the subject of being a dragon, and even if Gabein's tone becomes brusque, it wouldn't be much of a problem to curse at. The Karanatas are slowly closing their encirclement and approaching the Gabein. It is because they had to take the woman with her alive. Gabein is stepping back little by little with his two-handed sword covered in Undine, but he has nowhere else to go as he is surrounded in a circle. He tells Gabein to run away. He tells Arin that it is impossible because they are already surrounded. He says, well, then he can do it this way. Arin snaps his fingers and soon summons the spirits, and the summoned spirits flew violently through the air. Bang bang bang---------- The four sub-spirits of flame, Kasa, collids in the air at the same time, and the resulting shock wave shook Arin and Gabein for a while. He cuts off after telling Arin that this is useless and that they can't be moved by that kind of shockwave. Gabein, who turns his head and looks at Arin, is unable to follow his words. The woman, covered in her wounds, ran to Gabein and begged for her life, only to find that she is blown away in front of Karanatas, with burns all over her body. When her target is deviated, Karanatas run to the woman, leaving Gabein and Arin alone, and soon they take her with them and disappear into the darkness of the forest. And her shrieking shriek strikes through the woods. He says,, what the hell happened,,, He tells Gabein not to worry, he deliberately exploded his spirits in front of her, and she'll live so the monsters won't come this way again. Gabein with his sword in his hands with his dazed face just staring in the direction where Karanatas and unnamed woman disappeared. He asks Gabein what he's doing, and he says he's sleepy so let's go to sleep~~ Gabein unconsciously turns his head to Arin. Arin's brightly smiling face with his innocent-looking red eyes comes into Gabein's gaze. He says he played a part this time.
