Dragons are creatures that stand at the top of the food chain, while black dragons are natural hunters, not as short-tempered and patient as red dragons, like a crocodile lurking under calm waters, calm and cruel.

While everything was sleeping, the humanoid Cervantes hid behind the dense leaves, and saw a monster in front of him through the gap between the leaves—besides wurm, what other beast in this world is more powerful than a tiger? Wurm's flesh is mostly sour and too tough, human teeth are difficult to chew, and there is also elemental energy in the blood that ordinary people cannot bear, and it is even poisonous, not a 'suitable prey'.

Naturally insidious and cunning, the Black Dragon is extremely patient, and unlike his simple-minded kind, he does not despise any of his prey - presumably due to his experience of being bullied by his prey while hunting when he was a child, he had no spell-like abilities.

The matte black leather armor made it easier for Cervantes to lurk in the dark, and he was on all fours, like a poisonous snake wriggling forward, his cold eyes staring at a tree behind the monster, and the resting monster did not move.

The worm didn't react much to Cervantes' actions, as if it really had just crawled over a large snake.

The saber-toothed tiger monster was about twenty-four feet long, but its tail was six feet long, like an iron whip.

On the outskirts of the Black Forest, the saber-toothed tiger like the overlord flicked its tail leisurely, because there were no creatures that could threaten it here, so it dared to be so relaxed, not even a nest, the strength of the overlord could make any place its lair.

Tell me about it!

The sound coming from the grass made the overlord creature look up, and the sound stopped abruptly, and the saber-toothed tiger listened intently, and a 'purr' sound came out of its throat, apparently satisfied with its own deterrent power against other beasts.

The little fun of the saber-toothed tiger did not affect Cervantes, and he quietly climbed up the tree again at some point to look at the huge monster, except in the Black Forest, Cervantes rarely saw the existence of creatures about the size of a giant dragon in the outside world, this saber-toothed tiger was larger than the dragon-shaped him, but he had decided that the prey of this hunt was it!

Only overlord-level creatures are qualified to be the prey of the black dragon, and the food is different, which is Cervantes' standard for prey.

After staying in the Black Forest for two days, yesterday he set his eyes on this monster, a monster that was mutated by the external magic element from the Inland Sea, and it also contained elemental energy in its body, although it was scattered all over the body, but this was enough to make this monster extremely powerful.

If you want to eat ogres, you can eat ogres, if you want to eat trolls, you can eat trolls, and the ferocious apes and ferocious wild boars are just its food, and the wild goblin tribes and lizardmen tribes of the Black Forest, and even the wandering giant species will avoid this monster from afar, and it is not for nothing that it can relax so leisurely.

So, it became the prey of Cervantes!

The breath became scorching, a trace of white mist leaked from the corners of the mouth, and the heart was constantly beating, constantly transfusing blood and elemental energy to all parts of the body, and when it flowed through the stomach, the elemental energy in the blood was withdrawn and gathered......

"Roar—"

The feline overlord's hair exploded all over his body, locked by Cervantes' vertical pupils, and it felt the dragon's might, and when it opened its eyes, it saw a skinny two-legged beast standing in front of it.

Without the slightest hesitation, the sharp weapon hidden in his palm suddenly stretched out, and his right claw swept across.

"Roar—"

The dragon's roar froze the saber-toothed tiger for a moment, and a cone-shaped breath of fire erupted from Cervantes' mouth, burning the saber-toothed tiger's face.

"Whoa!"

Even though it closed its eyes, the heat still penetrated its fur and burned its eyes, and even when it rolled on the spot and slapped its forepaw, the flames were still hard to extinguish, and the fur kept burning, and the saber-toothed tiger's face was charred black. The injuries appear to be severe. But in reality, it was only frightened, not really hurt.

The 'hunting experience' black dragon pounced, and one of its front paws slapped down, and the saber-toothed tiger monster's head suddenly became groggy from the heavy blow.

The front paws of the saber-toothed tiger mutated because of the absorption of external magic elements bloomed with electric light, and the arbitrary spell-like ability [electric claw] was used under the drive of instinct, and the sluggish claws waved wildly, and the claws with electric light slashed across the skin of the black dragon, and the dragon skin with natural elemental resistance collided with thunder and lightning, so that Cervantes only suffered damage from the claws.

The saber-toothed tiger monster that smelled the smell of blood suddenly went berserk, and Cervantes couldn't hold it down.

The wings opened to the limit, and suddenly flapped, and the huge force used the wings as conductors and transmitted them to the body of the saber-toothed tiger monster, and at the same time Cervantes let go of his claws, kicked the ground with his hind limbs, and jumped up with the black dragon by inertia, jumping onto a tall tree, grasping on all fours, his tail wrapped around the trunk, and his wings clinging to his body, Cervantes stayed where the saber-toothed tiger couldn't reach, quietly looking at the overlord-level monster that was constantly rolling and digging the ground in pain.

"Whoa......"

The saber-toothed tiger monster kept slapping its already charred face, but the flames were not extinguished, and were spreading to its body.

The heat had burned its eyes, leaving it with no room to think, and could only roll in place, its whip-like tail constantly whipping the ground, echoing in the muffled empty forest.

The birds and insects had been awakened by the black dragon's release of its dragon power and fled the area, but there were still panicked cries of other animals around from time to time.

Cervantes was like a cold viper, but he also remembered that the maid told him to 'catch as hard as he could', so he didn't wait for the saber-toothed tiger to be exhausted, he spread his wings and pounced.

Only in this black forest, where every magic and every spell-like ability can obtain [Spell Strength], the flames spewed by the black dragon can continue to burn, and if it were elsewhere, the flames would have been extinguished long ago.

The forest was not big enough for the black dragon to fly, but he glided down, his tail slapping on the saber-toothed tiger's head.

Cervantes, who had landed on the ground and retracted his wings, turned around and rushed over, and then the blow just now caused the saber-toothed tiger to receive another dragon claw slap before he could react.

The instinct of the body did not cause the saber-toothed tiger to fall to the ground, but with its eyes closed and its nerves stimulated by the flames, it could not think normally, and there was no way to judge the position of Cervantes.

Cervantes rushed forward again, now he wants to 'catch alive', naturally he can't use the opponent's physical strength and energy with skillful rhythmic attacks like he did in the previous hunting, and then use the dragon's innate physical fitness and recovery ability to win at the lowest cost.

The black dragon crashed into the saber-toothed tiger's body, and the powerful kinetic energy knocked the overlord monster into the air, and the support force came from the two hind limbs that were kicking the ground, and Cervantes knocked the saber-toothed tiger into a giant tree.

But the huge trunk didn't last long, and soon broke off from the impact.

The tree fell to the ground with a "thud", and Cervantes grabbed the head of the badly injured saber-toothed tiger monster, grabbing the monster's head and hitting the ground despite the flames in his palm.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The leaves rustled as the black dragon rubbed against the saber-toothed tiger's head on the ground, extinguishing the burning flames.

The saber-toothed tiger's upper canine teeth had been broken, one stuck in the ground and one stuck in the trunk of a fallen tree.

But even so, the monster did not faint, and Cervantes wrapped his arms around the saber-toothed tiger's neck and strangled it vigorously.

"Woo, woo-woo......"

The lack of oxygen and the imminent strangulation of his neck made the saber-toothed tiger feces and urine flow, his mouth opened wide, and his eyes opened in pain, and his temporarily blind eyes were about to pop out.

But the overlord monster, which was already weakened, could not break free from the arms of the black dragon, and could not escape the fate of being strangled and stunned.

In the end, the tail of the black dragon's body hung down weakly, and the saber-toothed tiger's body was completely paralyzed, and he completely fainted due to suffocation.

The black dragon lay on the back of the toothbreaker, closed his eyes, and silently felt the recovery of his strength and energy, he was like this before he met the maid, and no one was waiting for him to go back anyway.

Wait until the first rays of sunlight shine through the treetops, through the gaps in the leaves, and shine on Cervantes.

Cervantes opened his eyes, looked up for the gaps in the treetops, and when he was ready, he grabbed the Broken Tooth Tiger monster and flew towards the Grim Wind Leader...... Winde City!

He wanted to tell his people that he, Cervantes, had inherited the title of Duke of Sorrow, and that he would become their rightful lord, and that the old duke's choice would not change, whether they wanted it or not, and that the greed of the nobles would not change...... The maid's expectations will not change!
