The Red Dragon Mountain range is a very long mountain range that covers the Central Continent.
The mountains are stretched out splitting the Central Continent into three parts, and throughout the range there are Red Dragons inhabiting it.
Red Dragons could be called the strongest monsters of the Central Continent.
They could also be called an absolute strength.
Each one holds S rank strength individually and yet they create packs of several hundreds.
What is worth a special mention is their detection ability.
They'll absolutely never overlook a living organism that enters their territory.
Absolutely.
They won't even let a living being the size of a dog pass by, no matter how strong of a monster it is, if it enters into the territory of the Red Dragons, the swarm will eat it without even leaving a bone behind.
It's unknown how they manage to detect things that enter into their territory.
If you enter their territory, you die.
That's common sense in this world.
There are a number of categories of Dragons in this world.
Pretty much all of them are over A rank individually.
Among them the ones that are said to be the most dangerous are the Red Dragons.
Individually they're said to be at lowest S rank, the scale of their territory is just too large, and at any rate they move in flocks.
The Red Dragons have settled down there; therefore, the Mountain Range was called Red Dragon Mountain Range.
It's a mountain range that is impossible to pass.
That is the Red Dragon Mountain Range.
Even with them being that much of a dangerous being, as a matter of fact the Red Dragons have a single weakness.
Their combat ability is high, but their flight ability is crude, therefore, they can't take off from a level ground.
They normally jump off from a high cliff in order to fly, otherwise a somewhat long slope is required to build up speed.
While the mountains in Central Continent are high, fundamentally it's nothing but plains and forests.
Therefore, the people living in the plains are rarely afraid of being attacked by the Red Dragons.
Although, it seems there are occasionally foolish individuals.
They might get involved with something like turbulence and fall down into the plains.
Such dragons are known as Stray Dragons.
Even if the lord of the skies falls to the ground, it's still a strong upper A rank.
With their overwhelming power when they go on a rage, it seems that an enormous amount of damage is done.
If they fall near a human village, it's something the country raises an army to subjugate.
Emergency jobs are sent out, it's an uproar almost like poking a beehive.
Although, generally they will fall a good distance away from human villages.
Even though the rank of the job is S rank, in order to play it safe, seven or eight parties gather together, set traps, and hunting it is unexpectedly simple it seems.
Incidentally, it seems the Dragons meat and bones are close to the highest quality for materials in equipment.
Also, the skin of Dragons has a high value as an article of art.
Of course, it's not just the skin, the entirety of the Dragon isn't spared and everything is used.
If 10 people were to equally split up the reward for subjugating just 1, it seems they'll earn enough money to go crazy for at least a year.
Putting it into detail, it seems one dragon is worth about 100 Asura Gold Coins.[1]
Since the raw materials are valuable as well, it seems even freshly raised C ranks who can't accept the job, recklessly attempt to challenge it.
It seems that most of them are turned into fried meat and suppressed with a chomp.
The Red Dragon Mountain Range is such a place that has large amounts of those Red Dragons inhabiting it.
There is a single place that can be used for passage there.
Valleys surrounded by steep cliffs known as the "Red Dragon's Upper Jaw" and "Red Dragon's Lower Jaw".
These are valleys that have existed since the time of the second Great Human-Demon war and even at that time it was the only path that had a width which armies could pass through.
It seems that Laplace anticipated this and released the Red Dragons in the Red Dragon Mountain Range.
Since Ruijerd is the one saying it, there's no mistake.
We're heading towards the part that connects the southern and western parts of the Central Continent, the "Red Dragon's Lower Jaw".
After we pass there, it's Asura Kingdom.
