S-Rank is My Side Character (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 17

[Aaaaaarrrrrggghhh-!!]

The dragon must’ve thought it was enough—half the battlefield was already covered in ice—because it began to take flight.

Each flap of its wings sent violent gusts of wind rushing across the field, forcing Rude to grip the Black Half Scissors he’d planted into the ground even tighter. Barely managing to look up, Rude furrowed his brow.

“Damn it… Looks like it’s entered a new phase.”

The dragon was flying in wide circles across the battlefield. Rude had wanted to change the entire field’s attribute before this new phase triggered.

But his HP had dropped far more than he’d anticipated. Seeing Rude’s condition from afar, Kang I Hyeon sprinted toward him.

[Skreeeeeeeeech-!!!]

Midair, the dragon spiraled around and roared. Instantly, the battlefield trembled violently.

Magma erupted from areas where the ice hadn’t yet fully hardened. The heat began melting the fragile ice Rude had painstakingly formed.

Kugugugugung—! An ominous sound filled the entire field. Responding to the dragon’s roar, the ceiling of the arena began rattling ominously.

‘If this were a real Gate… that ceiling would’ve collapsed already.’

Cracks had already begun spreading across the ground and surrounding walls. Just imagining it being real sent chills down his spine.

He’d been comforted by the thought that this mock battle was only virtual reality, so injuries wouldn’t happen—but the moment he grew complacent, a message popped up before Rude.

[Warning! Falling debris imminent.]

[This falling debris is NOT part of the virtual simulation. Please exercise caution and avoid it.]
