Chapter 313 - Episode Thirteen - Attack of Penrath (4)

Now, lets go back. It seems that the crisis is over The remains of the Nalgarn will be discussed with Lark later, and if necessary, you can move the private army to collect them.

I said to Euris as I looked at the remains of the two Nalgarn bodies.

The first Nalgarn had only had its head smashed off and its magic circles disabled, so there was hardly any external damage to its neck or torso that would have diminished its value.

The second one was a pain in the ass, so I blew it up with Abel ball, and its charred and generally damaged, so its use is pretty limited, but well, Nalgarn itself has become the stock dragon of fage territory, so its not a big deal.

After I called out to Euris, she continued to stare at the remains of the two Nalgarn in a daze.

The Nalgarns is so pitiful

I didnt miss Euris subtle, accusatory muttering.

You know, if I had let this go, It would have come to trample the village in the Fage territory.

You know that, dont you?

But I think Ive finally figured out why people dont seem to appreciate the many times Ive saved the fage territory from danger.

In short, its the same as the current Euris.

So thats why people dont like me, because I solve crises too easily

The impression from the outside is different between risking ones life and doing it half-heartedly.

For example, right now, Nalgarn looks pitiful because I blew him up with the Abel ball, and If I had challenged Nalgarn with my sword and courage, and defeated him in a fierce battle while half-dead and covered with scars, Euris would not have reacted as if he had mistakenly removed the head of a cicada caught by a classmate.

The reason why Abel-dono is not well-liked in the Alchemist division is because of his usual conduct, isnt it? The people of the Alchemist division all worshipped Abel-dono until he forced them to stay up all night for no particular reason on his first day in office, you know?

How rude, its not like theres no meaning to it.

I just wanted them to learn to adjust their magic power at least as soon as possible.

It was necessary for me. If that was enough to make people defect, then I guess the whole worship thing was a lie.

Now, lets go back to the estate.

But these horses are really hard on the hips.

I hadnt done anything in particular, but I felt like I was going to have some weird muscle pain.

I think Ill ask my personal therapist, Dr. Mea, for another massage.

Just then, I heard a loud noise coming from the mountains along the borders of Riveras Kingdom.

As I turned my head to see what was going on, I saw a group of trolls, fat and ugly giants with green bodies, coming towards us from the mountains.

At the same time, more than a dozen wyverns, spindly flying dragons with large wings, flew over the mountain.

W-What is this? The sheer amount of magical beasts is !?

Euris raises her voice.

The horde of magic beasts didnt stop there.

A huge body that looked to be 20 meters long spread its wings and flew up to the top of the mountain.

Unlike the Nalgarn that crawled on the ground, it was a Winged Dragon.

In addition, its appearance was extremely bizarre.

It was more creepy than amusing, with a colorful body surface that ranged from gaudy shocking pink to pure white.

Synthetic Magic Beast Chimera.

It was not an obvious naturally occurring magical beast.

The trolls and wyverns in the herd, and the chimera, are no doubt its the pawn of Riveras Kingdom.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The dragon roars.

No, no way! For the Riveras Kingdom to possess a large winged dragon !.

Euris looked up at the huge body above her head, and her eyes widened.

At the end of the dragons head, I could see the figure of an old man.

He was wearing the same priestly uniform as Nelgliffe, and it seemed that he was one of the four great priests of the water god.

Abel-dono, let us retreat! Even among dragons the winged dragon are too dangerous!

Is that so?

Obviously! This is the first time Ive seen a large winged dragon in person Since ancient times, large winged dragons have been feared as the king of magical beasts and flying fortresses. The fear of the winged dragon is that it has the physical and magical strength of a dragon, but with overwhelming mobility!

Euris makes an impassioned speech as if to persuade me.

But Im sorry, but this doesnt make much sense to me.

Ahh, God! If I had to compare it to a Nalgarn, it would be a Nalgarn that moves fast through the air! Thats why the fear of winged dragons is !

Euris lowered her eyes from the dragon to me.

Euris face had a hint of frustration on it.

She looked down at the ground and saw the remains of two Nalgarn in the extension of her gaze.

Euris facial expression returned and she cleared her throat.

The scary thing about the winged dragon is that they can, uh, fly through the air really fast ?

Euris had been talking about the dangers of winged dragons in a very convincing manner, but for some reason her final conclusion was questionable.

I see

Im sure that no matter how fast the winged dragon is moving, Im confident enough to use my fireball magic to cleanly shoot down the old man riding on the dragons head.

In addition, I have the absolute homing throwing weapon such as the Levis spear, so you dont need to worry about anything.

If you want, since Ive received a summoning crest, I can summon the Great God Kudor and have him kill it for you.

Theres no need to rush into anything.

Um, Abel-dono, by any chance, can you afford to face it?

Well, to be honest, I dont really care should I capture that thing alive?

Oh, then please do it that way

What had gone wrong was that the pilot of the winged dragon had thrown away the advantage of his flying ability to fly low and even fly near me and Euris.

I kept my wand firmly in my hand so that I could blow up the dragon at any time.

The chimera dragons stayed in the air, holding onto us.

Im sure theyve lost their will to fight against these numbers and the winged dragon. Its my pleasure to meet you, Abel-dono of the Marren tribe of the Dinrat Kingdom. My name is Penrath. Im one of the four great priests who swear absolute loyalty to Levi-sama, and the one you captured, Ms. Marias and Mr. Nelgliffe, are my brethren.

The small, old mans insidious features looked down at me.

Just as our eyes met, I felt my back go numb.

I was pressured and swallowed my spit as I backed away.

This guy is not just any old man.

I can sense a great deal of vindictiveness, malice, and madness that cannot be concealed by condescending words.

I had honestly underestimated him just because he was one of Levis four high priests, but this guy is a cut above Marias and Nelgliffe.
