Chapter 239: 15-year-old Inglis, the Dragon God and the Elder King (12)
Thwang! Thwaang! Thwaaaanngg!
A hard, metallic sound rang out in the encampment in the forest where they had docked their Flygear Carrier. The ones who made the noise were Leone and Liselotte. Leone stopped swinging her black greatsword Artifact in her hand and let out a deep sigh.
「……No can do. It doesn’t give in at all!」
She tried to dismantle the giant tail of the Dragon God that she had cut off into smaller pieces, but the overly tough dragon scales prevented her from ever cutting through it from the outside, her blade couldn’t penetrate it at all.
It possessed terrifying resiliency that far surpassed steel. She walked closer to look more closely at the place she swung her sword to, but not even a single scratch remained.
「With such a high endurance, this would be immensely useful if it could be processed into weapons or armor——though, conversely speaking, it’s too resilient to be processed at all……」
If they brought it back to the Knight Academy and had Principal Miliera or Special Envoy Theodore take a look at it, they might be able to put it to good use. But, what Leone was thinking about was how they could use it to help the survivors of Lekrea as well as the people in the surrounding areas who were experiencing famine.
「It seems like there is no other way to cut the meat than to carve it out from the open wound, after all!」
Liselotte also stopped her hand and walked a bit to stand in front of the open wound of the giant tail.
