"Jean, get back!" Aslan shouted to Jean.
Jean, who had been freed from the pheromone marking effect, moved away from Aslan who was the target of the dragon centipede.
After moving away, he drank the purple potion shared by Rouvin.
The effect of the pheromone marking on Aslan is still active. The dragon centipede, which is already critical because it was attacked by Farramir and Karn, still moves to Aslan and attacks him.
It pounces on Aslan and bites him, causing Aslan to have a wound on his hand and also get poisoned.
Rouvin looked around. He saw that Virgil and Ivan were no longer a threat to him. He moved towards the Dragon Centipede that had bitten Aslan.
He hit the Dragon Centipede hard from behind and also killed it.
[ Cedwyn Spell ]

Cedwyn who was still wrapped by the dragon centipede cast shillelagh. The effect amplified the magic of his staff.
The long brown-haired man hit the dragon centipede with his staff, causing the dragon centipede to be injured but still wrapped around him.
Even though it was already weak. the dragon centipede refused to release its grip. Cedwyn's spiritual bear immediately attacked it fiercely.
It tore the carapace with its bite, then scratched the torn part, making the dragon centipede die quite terribly.
Cedwyn freed himself from the dead dragon centipede and ordered his spiritual boar to attack the dragon centipede that was near Aslan. But the spiritual boar's attack was not very effective. The attack hit the dragon centipede's hind leg, which was the hard part of the skin.
“GRROOARRRR!” The queen dragon centipede made another strange move, Its four front legs jumped up and down and it started roaring.
The queen dragon centipede activated Sacrificial Pawn.
Queen Dragon Centipede was forced to command Dragon Centipede into a reckless attack on one creature that was targeted by Elder Dragon Centipede.
One of the dragon centipedes that was close to Aslan pounced on him and wrapped it on him. But Aslan quickly unwound the monster.
“BOOOMMM!!” Ivan releases his Firebolt to the queen dragon centipede.
Fire blazes around the queen dragon centipede.
Three dragon centipedes that had just emerged from their lair ran to avoid the fire. They headed towards Aslan who was still affected by the Pheromone Marking.
One of the dragon centipedes pounced on Aslan and wrapped him again.
This time, Aslan was helpless.
"Ughh..." blood came out of Aslan's mouth as he groaned from the attack.
“Slashh!” On the other side, Karn had already held his Halberd again, he attacked the centipede dragon queen.
One of the centipede dragons pounced on Aslan and wrapped him around again. This time, Aslan was helpless.
"Ughh..." blood came out of Aslan's mouth as he groaned from the attack.
On the other hand, Karn had already held his Halberd again, he attacked the centipede dragon queen.
In the midst of this chaos, Farramir looked confused.
"Farramir! attack the damn monster that is near Aslan."
"Don't let Aslan get surrounded by the centipede dragons." Seeing that, Jean ordered Farramir to attack the centipede dragon that was close to Aslan.
Farramir immediately approached one of the monsters from behind. He launched his attack.
"Slashhh!" Farramir's dagger slashed the centipede dragon's body.
Making blood flow everywhere. The Centipede Dragon was in pain, the monster tried to move its body.
"Whoosshh!" The monster swung its body randomly
Farramir, who was behind it, quickly dodged.
"whooshh!" The monster swung its back again.
"Brughh!" This time it slammed Aslan.
Aslan, who was being wrapped around him, could only let the centipede's body slam his body.
He began to feel short of breath due to being wrapped by the dragon centipede. Under that pressure, Aslan swung his sword upwards. Causing wounds to the monster that was wrapping him.
"Stabbb!!" Virgil kept aiming his arrow at the queen dragon centipede.
He launched his bursting arrow, which made many arrows in the body of the monster which was more than 20 ft.
Two monsters that had just emerged from their nests attacked Aslan in turn. They clawed and bit Aslan fiercely.
His heavy armor started to crack a lot due to the attack. From that attack, Aslan began to go into critical condition.
“PURIFICATION!!!” From behind, Jean chanted her healing skill so that Aslan could survive.
"Cedwyn, Rouvin! Attack that damned dragon centipede!" Jean shouted, ordering the two of them to attack the dragon centipede that had been attacked by Farramir.
"we must attack effectively, attack first the one that is likely to die quickly!
Rouvin launched an attack. With his gauntlet, he was able to tear the dragon centipede's stomach. Which made the dragon centipede's wound even bigger.
Cedwyn paid attention to Aslan's condition. He only ordered his spirit beast to attack the Dragon Centipede while he cast his healing spell.
"Heal Armor !" Cedwyn shouted to Aslan. Heals Aslan and provides bonus armor. It makes Aslan's condition better.
"Roarrr!" Cedwyn's spiritual bear roared and began to scratch and bite the dragon centipede's body.
Followed by his spiritual Boar which made it the final attack for the dragon centipede who died instantly.
As a result of Jean's healing skill, Aslan's body got better. He kept trying to free himself from the dragon centipede's
Aslan who had just received Heal was suddenly attacked by the dragon centipede queen. The queen bit Aslan fiercely, making Aslan poisoned.
"Oh by the seven gods! What's wrong with this damn centipede?" Aslan grumbled while wincing in pain.
The dragon centipede above him wrapped around him even tighter, making it harder for Aslan to breathe.
"Swoooshh!" Karn, who was focused on the Queen Dragon Centipede, tried to divert his attack to the Dragon Centipede that was close to Aslan.
Farramir trying to attack him again,he sneaks under the Queen Dragon Centipede's stomach. He attacked her effectively.
His dagger was aimed at the segment that was not covered by its hard shell. Making a fairly deep wound in the Queen Dragon Centipede's back stomach area.
Jean who saw that, considered that Farramir was talented.
"Nice one kid. Keep attacking that damn monster." Jean said.
Aslan who realized he was poisoned, tried to take the purple potion in his pocket and immediately drank it even though it was difficult because he was being wrapped by the Dragon Centipede. The potion cured Aslan of the poison.
“Stabb!” Virgil continued to attack the Queen Dragon Centipede with his arrow.
Hit by Virgil's arrow, the Queen Dragon Centipede looked around Virgil, he looked for a target in the defense.
"Hold this damn monster, don't let him enter Virgil and Ivan's area." Jean, who realized this, immediately ordered the others to keep the centipede dragon queen from moving towards Virgil and Ivan.
Aslan, who was wrapped up, had difficulty cleaning his body from the pheromone marking which made two medium-sized Dragon Centipedes attack him.
The nearest dragon centipede immediately pounced and bit him, causing him to be poisoned again.
“Ughh…!”
“Damn you shitty centipede!” Aslan continued to grumble trying to hold back the attack while blood poured out of his hands and mouth.
“PURIFICATIONNN!!” Jean shouted to Aslan who was trying to hold on.
Jean's Purification makes Aslan's wounds better. Some of the wounds disappear. Aslan's body became fitter again even though Jean's spell did not remove the poison in Aslan's body.
Rouvin took a stance and attacked the dragon centipede that was wrapped around Aslan from behind. The attack was critical, and stunned the dragon centipede. But it did not make the dragon centipede fall off Aslan's body.
Cedwyn who still had the Shillelagh effect on his wand. Swung his wand towards the dragon centipede that was near Aslan. With his Shillelagh Effect, the attack made a deep wound for the dragon centipede.
Cedwyn's spiritual boar attacked the dragon centipede fiercely.
Queen dragon centipede started performing a legendary move again, he spat out stinky goop at Ivan.
“By the all gods…”
“What is this stink?!” Ivan whined while holding his body which was already covered in blobs of stinky goop.
“This is insane! He can spit quite far!”
“Now protect Ivan! Don't let the other dragon centipedes attack him.” Ask Rouvin.
“Ivan is not Aslan who wears heavy armor. He has no strong protection." Karn added.
Knowing that the others would protect him, Ivan did not care about the upcoming attack. He did not try to clear the effects of the pheromone marking, but instead directly mobilized his energy to attack.

“DRRRRRDDRRR” Tanah tiba-tiba bergetar di sekitar ratu dragon centipede.
“Crraaackkkk!” The shaking ground immediately collapsed, causing everyone in the area to be injured.
It was Ivan's attack. Echo tremor.
The centipede dragon queen, and the three centipede dragons were injured by Ivan's attack. Including Karn, Farramir, and Aslan who were around the centipede dragon queen.
"Ughh! Shit!”
“What the hell is that?" Farramir was shocked as he looked up at the sky to see what had just happened, he didn't know it was an attack from Ivan.
"Hey! Don't panic, that's what he's doing." Karn got up calmly while pointing at Ivan
'That kid?' Farramir muttered as he patted his shoulder, cleaning the dirt from his armor.
He looked around. Out of everyone here, only Aslan and Karn were wearing Heavy Armor. The rest were wearing light Armor, and only Ivan was wearing a regular mantle.
"Okay we have to protect him." Farramir muttered.
“That’s my job. You take the damned queen.” Karn answered while chasing the dragon centipede who ran to Ivan.
“STABBB!!!” Karn's halberd stabbed into the stomach of one of the dragon centipedes and made a fairly deep wound.
Karn began to seriously look at Ivan who was the target of the other dragon centipedes.
Farramir returned his focus to the queen dragon centipede, he sneaked back near her stomach, then swung his dagger towards her stomach, and made a new wound on the monster's stomach.
Receiving an attack from Farramir, the queen dragon centipede groaned in pain, she began to look for who attacked her.
On the other side, Aslan managed to escape from the dragon centipede's grip that wrapped him. But his strength was already quite weak, his consciousness began to fade.
“Aslan, you’re Paladin right?”
“Fool Paladin! You have Healing Oath,it can cure the poison.” Jean shouted from behind.
[ Aslan Spell ]
image [https://i.imgur.com/6N3tC60.png]
Hearing that, Aslan just remembered. He immediately pressed his hands to his chest and chanted the Healing oath. Aslan's body gradually recovered and The poison was cured.
Realizing that Ivan was in danger, Virgil changed his target to one of the centipede dragons that was chasing Ivan. He shot his arrow at the centipede dragon and made one of the centipede's legs start to limp.
Jean, who felt safe, returned to the queen of the centipede dragon.
Without hesitation, he stabbed his rapier towards the wound in his stomach. Hit by hit on the stomach made the centipede dragon queen groan in pain. The monster immediately looked again for who was attacking below him.
Rouvin, who saw the dragon centipede hit by Virgil's arrow, began to limp, immediately attacking it, and made the dragon centipede go critical.
Cedwyn also chased the dragon centipede, he attacked the monster that was already critical and killed it.
Annoyed by the one who attacked her stomach, the queen dragon centipede swung her body, but Jean and Farramir managed to avoid it.
“GRROAAARRRR!!” The queen dragon centipede made another strange move again. Its four front legs jumped up and down and it started roaring again.
It's activating a Sacrificial Pawn. Making a dragon centipede near Ivan doing a reckless attack.
Ivan was seriously injured in the attack. He tried to eat five hot chilli peppers and immediately sprayed Dragon's breath towards the dragon centipede. It causes a lot of damage. Also make a burning effect for dragon centipedes.
The dragon centipede who had just realized due to Rouvin's stun attack immediately ran towards Ivan.
Karn kept running towards Ivan to cover him.
“I’m here Ivan, calm down." Karn shouted while clasping his hands towards Ivan.
His hand reached Ivan and cast Healing Oath to Ivan.
“I’m paladin too, I can heal you.” Karn spoke while turning his back to Ivan.
Receiving healing from Karn, Ivan feels better, even a little.
“Thanks Karn, but…”
“I still feel the pain.” Ivan smiled weakly.
Now, Karn's position was in front of Ivan. He was ready to confront the two dragon centipedes who wanted to attack Ivan.
“Farramir, you help Ivan first.”
“Leave the damned queen to me.” Aslan asked.
Faramir, who followed Aslan's instructions, immediately ran after the dragon centipede who had just regained consciousness and was running towards Ivan.
“Come on everyone, we can do it! There are only two dragon centipedes left and this damn queen.” Jean shouted to everyone to encourage themselves.
Farramir, who was chasing quickly, immediately stabbed the dragon centipede from behind with his dagger, making the dragon centipede stagger a little.
After commanding Farramir, Aslan focused on the queen, he followed Farramir's way of attacking. He quickly stabbed the sword into the wound that Farramir had made.
"ROOARRRRR!" The dragon centipede queen was shocked to receive an attack from Aslan, her wound was torn deeper by Aslan's sword.
Seeing Farramir and Karn had covered Ivan, and the queen was in pain. Virgil aimed his arrow at the dragon centipede queen.
“STABBBB!” His arrow pierced the queen dragon centipede's leg.
The dragon centipede affected by the sacrificial pawn immediately jumped past Karn and wrapped around Ivan.
“Ughhh!” Ivan grimaced holding back the dragon centipede.
“Purificationn!" Jean cast his healing spell on Ivan. making Ivan much fresher than before.
After Farramir made one of the remaining dragon centipedes stagger, now it was Rouvin's turn to hit it in the head. He collided his Gauntlet with the dragon centipede's head.
Rouvin's attack stunned the dragon centipede again.
Cedywn summoned his spiritual bear then directed to attack the queen dragon centipede. The spiritual bear clawed and bit the queen dragon centipede fiercely, the attack was very brutal.
Hit by the attack, the queen dragon centipede did not remain silent, she waved her body again.
The queen dragon centipede spat out the blob of stink randomly. Aslan who’s in front of the queen has been avoiding it. So, the blob hits Jean who is behind Aslan.
“Ughhh… really?”
“Again?!” Jean was annoyed and started cleaning the lumps on his body.
Under pressure, Ivan saw his familiar cat, Michelle, still beside the dragon centipede queen. And still under the effect of hot pepper.
“Whooosshhh!” He immediately released Dragon breath through Michelle towards the queen dragon centipede.
The queen dragon centipede who had weakened, was burned by Ivan's dragon breath. A burst of fire devoured the dragon centipede queen.
"Crackkkk!" The dragon centipede queen fell and died instantly.
“Finally! Now, focus on the rest of the dragon centipede!” Aslan shouted.
The queen was dead. The dragon centipede who attacked due to pheromone marking suddenly lost its aggressiveness. Now the monster looked confused.
The dragon centipede who was already staggering immediately attacked Farramir who was nearby. He quickly bit Farramir which caused him to be poisoned.
Another dragon centipede continued to wrap Ivan. Karn's hand held Ivan's chest.
“Sanctuary!” Karn casting spells.
That made the dragon centipede move from Ivan to Karn and the Monster immediately wrapped Karn quickly!
“Cough…”
“Finally I can breathe.” Ivan lies down and calls Michelle.
“CRAACKKKK” Farramir responded with his dagger at the dragon centipede that had bitten him.
The attack tore the trunk segment of the dragon centipede.
“SLAASSHHH!” Aslan helped attack the dragon centipede that attacked Farramir.
Aslan's attack cut off one of the dragon centipede's forcipules. Blood splattered from the monster's head. Now, the monster was moving erratically.
“Stabbbb!” Virgil's arrow shot into the monster's body.
Blood poured out of the dragon centipede's body. Its body was no longer as aggressive as before. The monster crawled to escape. But Jean prevented it, he quickly stabbed his rapier into the dragon centipede's neck. Made the dragon centipede die in his hands.
[ Rouvin Spell ]
image [https://i.imgur.com/F4l8aBb.png]
Rouvin cast Darkness, with the intention that the dragon centipede could not see and it would be easy for Karn to escape from the grip.
But he forgot that the effect not only made the dragon centipede unable to see, but Karn and Ivan who were nearby could not see either.
[ Ivan Spell ]
image [https://i.imgur.com/KuDtDg7.png]
Ivan, who panicked because it was suddenly dark, activated his burning hand spell.
“ARGH!! What happened?!”
"Why is it suddenly dark and my back is hot!" Unknowingly his hand hit Karn and the Dragon centipede.
Because of that, Karn and the Dragon centipede were damaged by Ivan's spell.
The heat of Ivan's hand provoked Karn into Rage, and because of that, Karn recklessly attacked the Dragon centipede that was on top of his body.
Not far from there, Farramir ran towards the darkness area. Farramir was a dark elf, he could see into Rouvin's darkness.
He moved quickly and started attacking the remaining dragon centipede.
"Slasshh!!" The dagger tore the dragon centipede's body.
Blood gushed out from the monster's lower body.
The dragon centipede who couldn't see anything could only tighten its grip on Karn.
"Cough…" Farramir coughed out blood from his mouth.
It was because of the poison when he was bitten by the dragon centipede earlier.
"Ughhhh" Karn could only wince, accepting the increasingly tight grip of the dragon centipede.
"Whose idea was this that I couldn't..."
"Brughhh!" Karn fell while trying to get out of Rouvin's darkness area, he tripped over a large tree root in the Sequoia Forest.
"Honestly, this is the right time for us to leave Karn."
"But... it looks like you're no longer a threat to us."
"Purification!!" Jean cast the spell for the umpteenth time.
He couldn't see Karn, but. by pointing his rapier at Rouvin's darkness. That was enough to heal Karn.
Rouvin with his gauntlet attacked the dragon centipede that was trapped by Karn's body.
Karn who had recovered. Felt that someone was attacking the dragon centipede, he did another reckless attack. His halberd tore apart the remaining dragon centipede on his body.
Hit by Karn's reckless attack, making The dragon centipede die.
"Enough Karn, that damn monster is dead." Farramir spoke as he looked around.
“Ahhh it’s over.” He sat down and drank the purple potion from Rouvin.
Seeing Farramir who had sat down. Rouvin pulled Karn out of his Darkness area.
"eh, you're light, it turns out." Rouvin was shocked when he pulled Karn.
"I thought you were very heavy."
"yeah, I am light, my friends used to throw me around when we were at war." Karn replied.
Jean approached Aslan,
"it's finally over." Jean said while glancing at the corpse of the centipede dragon queen.
"We have to study this monster."
He approached the corpse and Aslan followed behind him
Aslan stands above the corpse's head
"Crackkk!" Aslan stabbed one of his swords into the monster's corpse.
"I think I like this monster.”
“See the color when the body is exposed to sunlight, I don't know why I like that.” Aslan said while he drank purple potion from Rouvin.
Everyone drank the purple potion to recover their bodies.
Cedwyn looked around. It never occurred to him that he would fight a monster. Now, in the sequoia forest there are many dragon centipede carcasses, the forest that he once knew as a peaceful forest has now become a forest that gives trauma because his clan was killed here.
“Jean, how far is it from here to Oldgate?”
“I want to meet my sister and Gaenor.” Cedwyn asked.
Jean looks at Aslan and the others.
"Just wait, I think I found something here.” Jean reaches into the wound he made on the dragon centipede queen's neck.
Virgil began studying the 30 ft monster for a report to the kingdom. He stood on the monster's body observing all the details of the monster.
Aslan who had stabbed the sword in the head of the centipede dragon queen. Pulled it to clean the sword.
"Crack!" Aslan's sword that was stuck when pulled suddenly cracked and broke.
Aslan who pulled it was shocked. He did not know what happened.
"I take back what I said earlier."
"I think I hate this damn monster." Aslan muttered in annoyance seeing his sword broken.
Aslan looked at the broken sword languidly.
"You can buy a new sword, I'll pay the rest when we're at the tavern," said Rouvin while giving him two pouches containing five thousand gold pieces each.
"Thank You," Aslan said while smiling at Rouvin. Jean, who was opening the mouth of the dragon centipede queen, also waved at Rouvin, indicating that he was also grateful.
Seeing that, Ivan was confused.
"Both of you getting paid?"
Aslan and Jean just smiled. Rouvin was a little confused but ignored Ivan, he immediately wrote about the Dragon Centipede Queen and collected the data for his research purposes.
"What did you write?" Jean asked.
"I'm collecting data with this dragon centipede, maybe one day my writing will be useful for future generations,"
"Oh, I'm a researcher by the way, I also have my library."
Seeing this incident, Farramir and Virgil exchanged glances indicating that this group would be very useful for Farramir.
They whispered to each other.
"By using them, it could help get me out of the thief guild," Farramir whispered.
"Can you pay for it?" Virgil asked.
"Hmm, looks like I have another idea," said Farramir.
When Farramir was about to speak.
"By the lord! Aslan! come here!" Suddenly Jean shouted.
