A Dragon Slayer Meets Dragon Slayer Siblings

“Eugene, your targets are about 500 meters north of your position.” Sakura said to Eugene through a wireless communication device.

“Roger that.” Eugene said in response as he ran through an area covered in snow in the direction that Sakura directed him to. There had been reports about dark mages residing in this area. As they were actually quite a big threat to the nearby towns. Unchained Soul made sure to dispatch someone to take them down. As he stopped just before a clearing, he saw what he was looking for and then some. He saw a girl with brown hair and a brown dress who seemed to be in her teens being attacked by his targets. He watched the scene play out a little. He decided that he would stay in the shadows and out of sight unless the girl actually needed help. From experience he knew that if he stepped in unnecessarily, he could hurt one’s pride by doing so. Even when he did need to step in, the result was the same for some people. If it was the same either way, Eugene usually waited.

From the looks of things, the girl was doing quite well for one who was completely outnumbered. All of her foes were also using magic too making it even more impressive. Unfortunately, this situation didn’t last long as the dark mages started figuring out her battle patterns and restrained her using binding magic. The dark mages then began to tie her up and picked her up.

“Man, I really can’t just sit back for this one huh?” Eugene said to himself as he walked towards the battle scene. As he walked through the small crowd of dark mages, they didn’t even take notice of him. It wasn’t until he spoke out that they noticed his presence. “Wow, I know you guys aren’t very popular with the ladies, but I didn’t think you’d be desperate enough to resort to kidnapping a girl.” He said to tease the surrounding foes which succeeded in doing so but it also shocked them as they didn’t realize he was there until just now.

“Where’d you come from!?!” They exclaimed in shock from the sudden appearance and anger from the comment.

“Wow, you didn’t notice me even though I’ve been watching you guys for the past 5-10 minutes?” Eugene asked, furthering the bandits’ shock. “Don’t worry though, I’m used to it.” Using their shock to their advantage, Eugene hit the guy carrying the girl, making him drop her. Eugene made sure to catch her before setting her down gently. He used a kunai to get rid of her bindings before putting his coat over her so that she wouldn't catch a cold. With the binding magic still in place, even with the ropes that restrained her gone, she wouldn't be able to move for a while and without body movement which would produce heat, the cold would sink in. Thankfully, his coat was long enough.

“Get him!” The leader of the dark mages exclaimed, finally regaining his senses. Because of the loud shout, the others as well got out of their shock and began charging at Eugene.

“Wow, it took you that long to snap out of it?” Eugene said with a smile as he brandished his sword at his foes. “Alright then, bring it on. Panzer!!” He exclaimed, making his body glow red temporarily before enemy attacks hit him. However, thanks to his spell, he was unaffected. “Allow me to return the favor, Forest Dragon’s Cactus Machine Gun!” He slammed his hand on the ground, summoning several cacti shaped plants that circled around him and the girl. All of their needles were pointed towards his enemies. “Coating, paralysis fluid and hell pepper juice!” All of the needles shimmered briefly after he said that. “Now, fire!” With that command, all of the cacti began shooting their needles at the foes. While the needles themselves didn’t have much offensive power, the liquids that coated the needles definitely had an effect on the enemy. They were already beginning to become sluggish due to the paralysis liquid and the hell pepper juice made them feel like they were burning. Eugene took this opportunity to use his sword to cut them all down, with the flat of his blade of course since he didn’t want to kill anyone.

“Wait a minute, two guild emblems? Appearing out of nowhere? It’s the Ghost Dragon Slayer!” One of the few remaining dark mages said in fear as he saw the marks on Eugene's shoulders before he was knocked out by a heavy plant thrown at his head.

“Idiot, ghosts aren’t an element.” Eugene said calmly having been the one who threw it. “But yeah, that’s what I’m called sometimes.” He said with a carefree smile. Before knocking out another one who was trying to get away.

“We picked a fight with the wrong guy…” The leader said in fear as he too tried to back away…..

A few minutes later…

“Ah, I’m finally done!” Eugene said as he stretched a little before talking into his communication device. “Hey Sakura, I’m done here and all of the bandits are tied up. Get someone to put them in jail or something.” He then went over to the girl who he partially forgot about in the midst of the battle. "Oy, you okay there? The binding magic should have worn off now so you should be able to move now."
