He didn't. Dragons are mythological. The story is a metaphor.
Saint George was said to have slain a dragon. This story first began circulating many years after his death. At this time, dragons were often used to symbolize the Devil.

One common phrase associated with St. George before slaying the dragon is "In the name of God and St. George, I shall slay thee." This quote highlights the bravery and faith of St. George in his battle against the dragon.
We sally forth to slay yon dragon! Slay him while you can!
St. George was real. He was an early Christian martyr. He was a soldier in the Roman army and refused a direct order to persecute and kill Christians. For this, he was tortured and beheaded. Some of his deeds are probably mythical or, at the very least, exaggerated. Dragons have never existed. Perhaps he did kill some animal that was threatening a town such as a crocodile, but it is unlikely he could have slayed a dragon.
You slay me! (Used to indicate mirth.)Someone must slay that dragon!

St. George is credited with killing a dragon somewhere in north Africa. Since dragons have never existed, the story is a pure myth. Perhaps he killed some other animal such as a crocodile.
Reader 1: The dragon was an iguana. Come on everyone knows dragons in that respect dont exist!!! Reader 2: A mere knight would have a hard time slaying a full grown dragon. This is probably why the dragon depicted in the historical accounts and artwork is so small. It was but a baby.
