Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 533

'Whoa... it’s not a Black Flame Dragon, it’s a Black Shadow Dragon?'

Looking at the Black Shadow Dragon, Su-ho was reminded of the Spirit King from his previous life.

Because the Spirit King also had a dragon-type divine beast like the Black Shadow Dragon in front of him.

'The one he used... was it called Black Dragon or something...? If we’re talking naming sense, Black Dragon might actually be better than Black Shadow Dragon?'

Of course, the pressure it gave off and the power it carried were far more overwhelming for the Black Shadow Dragon.

The same went for its appearance.

The Black Shadow Dragon, far larger than the Spirit King’s Black Dragon, rose up from the Shadow Land and practically filled the inside of the castle the instant it emerged.

"KYAAAAOOOOOO!!"

[ The shadow divine beast Black Shadow Dragon uses boss monster-grade Fear. ]

[ Dragon Blood is activated. ]

[ Due to the Dragon Mind effect of Dragon Blood, Fear does not apply. ]

Man, it’s got lungs.

Still, if it’s the strongest shadow divine beast, I was expecting at least Ruler-Class, but it’s still only boss monster-grade?

Then it’s not something I need to care about.

Su-ho lifted his sword, then lowered it again.

Instead, he called something else.

"Dung Dog."

"Yes."

What he summoned was Dung Dog the Roynan.

Su-ho spoke to Roynan, who took a waiting stance at his side.

"What do you think about that pitch-black lizard?"

"Seeing it dare to open its mouth at you, Master, it seems it needs a proper lesson."

"Right? I’ll temporarily attach command authority over your three old subordinates, so go take care of it."

"Yes, understood."

"You guys heard that too, right?"

At Su-ho’s question, Shuraia, Seorio, and Periotin were also summoned and answered with proper formality.

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Yes."

Su-ho nodded leisurely.

Then he tilted his head.

"Go rip it apart."

Shushuk!

Faithful to Su-ho’s order, the four vampires became a quartet and lunged at the Black Shadow Dragon.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth—if you’re going to deal with summons, shouldn’t you answer with summons?

Around the time Su-ho took a relaxed step back, the vampire quartet split up, scattering to divide the Black Shadow Dragon’s attention.

[ Roynan uses Bloody Mary. ]

[ Shuraia uses Bloody Mary. ]

[ Seorio uses Bloody Mary. ]

[ Periotin uses Bloody Mary. ]

Starting with Roynan, the remaining trio followed Roynan and used the same skill.

The skill’s name was Bloody Mary.

The moment the skill activated, blood-red whirlwinds swept out, and from each direction, they began grinding into the Black Shadow Dragon like a set of shredders.

"KYAAAAOOOOOO!!"

The Black Shadow Dragon beat its wings hard and let out a roar.

Fear activated, and spirit pressure poured out.

But compared to the enormous Black Shadow Dragon, the tiny vampires were, surprisingly, unaffected by its spirit pressure.

Because they were under the influence of Su-ho’s mana.

And that wasn’t all.

Contrary to the expectation that their small bodies would get pushed around by the Black Shadow Dragon, the Black Shadow Dragon—like an elephant panicking and toppling at the sight of a mouse—couldn’t properly chase the nimble vampire quartet and was too busy flailing and kicking at air.

Right around then, a growl came from somewhere.

"Krrr...."

A growl.

It wasn’t the Black Shadow Dragon’s.

The source of the sound was, unbelievably, the Guiyeong Spear.

When Su-ho lightly tapped it as it trembled along with that growl, the Guiyeong Spear instantly changed into Guiyeong.

"Guiyeong?"

"Krrrng!"

It was wildly excited.

A very rare sight.

The reason became clear quickly.

Su-ho let out a hollow laugh and asked,

"What, are you getting worked up because you’re from the same divine beast stock?"

"Krrng!"

"You want in too? That’s why you’re growling, right?"

"Woof-woof!"

"Fine. You’ve got to do things when you feel like doing them for your real skill to come out. Go. Go bite its neck clean off."

"Kwoooong!!"

The moment its master let the leash go, the once-gentle Guiyeong went crazy with excitement and charged the Black Shadow Dragon.

The quartet had now become a quintet.

Satisfying.

There were still a few more summons he could bring out, but he had a feeling this would be enough to handle the Black Shadow Dragon.

"KYAAAAOOOOOO!!"

[ The shadow divine beast Black Shadow Dragon uses Black Breath. ]

Around then, the Black Shadow Dragon used its breath.

But unfortunately for it, there wasn’t even a chance of that breath touching my quintet.

A barrage of vicious attacks.

Guiyeong and the vampires were fighting together for the first time, but maybe because they were all outstanding warriors, there was no need to worry—they naturally produced the best synergy and hammered the Black Shadow Dragon without pause.

After some time passed like that, the tree-trunk-like momentum of the Black Shadow Dragon was finally completely crushed.

Thud!!

The Black Shadow Dragon fell.

But Guiyeong didn’t let its guard down until the very end—and it didn’t allow mercy, either.

Crunch! Crunch!

The Black Shadow Dragon had its nape torn open.

Watching Guiyeong tear into its neck, the vampire quartet smiled in satisfaction.

"It’s just a lizard, after all."

Roynan, in particular, looked the most pleased.

Because it had gotten to vent the stress it had built up from Su-ho properly.

As the Black Shadow Dragon lay on the ground twitching, Su-ho naturally glanced up at the sky and let out a snort of laughter.

Well?

What’s the next card?

However, Umbrada—and even Umbrada’s avatar—still didn’t move an inch, just watching the twitching Black Shadow Dragon.

In that moment, Guiyeong bit down properly on the Black Shadow Dragon’s vital point, and from the sharp pain the Black Shadow Dragon howled.

"KIEEEEEEEEE!!"

[ The shadow divine beast Black Shadow Dragon uses boss monster-grade Fear. ]

[ Dragon Blood is activated. ]

[ Due to the Dragon Mind effect of Dragon Blood, Fear does not apply. ]

Boss monster-grade Fear.

The system notice definitely said that, but unlike the ones he’d heard up to now, the instant the Fear rang out, goosebumps ran up Su-ho’s entire body.

That was when—

Tsuzuzuzuzut!

Black smoke rose from the toppled Black Shadow Dragon.

It wasn’t ordinary smoke.

The rising smoke quickly coiled around Guiyeong, which was standing by its nape, and Guiyeong, wrapped in that smoke—
