Episode 34: Forced service order and defeat of old dragon.

"..."

"..."

"Wow! Is this boy the pupil of Alfred, the brave man who defeated the dead dragon !? Indeed, it's an insidious atmosphere at that age!"

"(Um, Mr. Blanc Turk?)"

"(I'm still a hot man)"

"(Are you great people?)"

"(Oh, the first mage of the Royal Palace)"

The day after we went shopping in the commercial district, I was suddenly pushed by a messenger and several knights from the royal palace into a carriage along the way, and took me to a military garrison just outside the royal capital. I will be lost.

I feel like a kidnapping in the middle, but the knights are not kidnappings because they have orders from His Majesty.

After all, I didn't know if my Majesty was faithful, but I'm a king's vassal.

This garrison seems to be the place where royal garrisons usually use for training.

A simple log hut, a watchtower, and a large tent.

Indeed, the building was suitable for a military garrison in a fantasy world.

The army that the kingdom maintains regularly has surprisingly many people, despite the recent disarmament.

It was also a remedy for noble children who had no work.

However, if it is just too many, the training seems to be always strict because it will be labeled as a wasteful meal, and even if the entire army is not possible at once, it will take turns to conduct outdoor exercises in the suburbs in this way Seems to be an annual event of the Royal Army.

The carriage carrying me arrives in front of one of the log cabins in the garrison.

When the guards who were standing at the entrance prompted me to enter, there was Mr. Blantark who I knew well.

Another middle-aged man, who is more than two meters tall, was waiting.

In addition, this uncle.

Even though it is a mass of muscles, the clothes I wear are robes, and the ones I have in my hand are enormously large and my stick is a stick.

In other words, it is not a martial artist or a warrior, but a wizard.

It seems that it is faster to hit and kill the enemy with the wand than to use magic.

Fortunately, he was a wizard, proved by Blantark, who had been brought in earlier.

In addition, he says he is the first palace mage.

At the sudden appearance of the muscular martial arts wizard, I suddenly uttered a phrase.

The teacher was a person in the exact opposite position.

"(Principal palace mage? @Blantaq?")

"(That's ...")

What is the difference between a wizard and a mage?

If asked, it seems to be just a difference in how to call.

However, there is a big difference between the two.

A mage is the ultimate elite among wizards who are chosen and served by the kingdom.

Human service is humorous to those who have no sense of value in finding the greatest significance, but nonetheless, from the public's point of view, no human is as socially trusted as a mage.

Even among the nobles of the Kingdom, those who are ministers still have very high social credibility, but they are considered to be one step higher.

In addition, it is possible for the mage to be separate from the nobility.

Or rather, you need magical talents, no matter how noble you must have them.

Therefore, it is said that people can see it with respect.

In addition, the old man in front of me is the royal palace mage.

The greatness and greatness were not odd.

It looks like an old man.

"Are you nervous? If so, you don't need to. That's because certain boys will fight together."

"Do you fight?"

"Left, open the Parquenian grasslands that have long been occupied by Grade Grand for further development of the kingdom."

Grade ground on the Parkenian grassland.

Sadly, I happened to ask Erich older brother yesterday to understand why, so I understand why we were called.

But it is a foul to call me now to fight monsters.

Because I'm still a minor when I'm 12 years old.

Minors must not enter the area where monsters live.

That's why we are training and ordinary hunting days at the prep school.

"Um, I'm a minor ..."

I was thinking of refusing to grade down because I was a minor.

In the first place, even in the battle with the ancient dragon, the magical airship on which I was riding fought to protect myself.

Legitimate defense, emergency evacuation measures.

You can say anything, but I'd like you to take the second dragon for a while because the first team was that.

Who likes and says that he will be summoned to fight the dragon?

At least I'm not that masochist.

"That worry is totally useless!"

"Um .... what is that?"

The meaningless high-tension uncle asserted that there was no problem even if I was a minor.

"Sure, it's a rule violation for a minor to enter the territory where demons live !! But! Because the boy is noble, there's no problem!"

"Oh, it's like that ..."

Apparently, Blanc-Taak, who seems to be able to participate together, seems to have something in mind.

He turned his face to me for a moment and showed the expression "Awful".

"The boy is the head of the Baumeister Baron! Nobles, even minors, may have to serve on the order of His Majesty! This Grade Grand destruction is ordered by the Majesty to the Royal Residence Military action! "

"..."

What the uncle of Gachimuchi says seems very correct for a noble king.

For me, who has just earned a title, it was a bit of a blue sky.

"Give up. I have a service order via the palace."

Alas, Blantark has also been ordered via Breichrader Margin, and it seems that he cannot refuse to defeat Grade Grand.

"Blantaak isn't too nervous, either."

"Is it possible that the shaven of the shaven was transmitted?"

"What is it? I can't hear it as a joke ..."

"I'm really saying half."

"..."

I completely lost my escape, and I went back to exterminating the dragon again with Mr. Blantaq.

Isn't it a bad idea to want someone to take over?

"Fuhahahahaha! It's as big as ever!"

"Big ..."

"It's smaller than that ancient dragon, but it's still big."

A week after my fateful encounter with Muscle Guru, I, Blantark, and Armstrong Glider were flying over the grassland in the heart of the Parquenian grasslands.

In this operation, the Royal Army mobilized 10,000 people, one sixth of the army stationed in the royal capital, to form and prepare necessary supplies at a suburban garrison, and then set up a base near the territory. I was stretching.

This is because if an army enters the territory, many monsters will be stimulated and a large-scale battle will take place, so the operation was not to enter the territory until the grade ground collapsed.

Separately, I feel that the number of demons does not change even if the grade ground falls, but the grade ground is like a boss controlling this area, and at the same time reigns at the top of the food chain, It seems that other monsters can move freely with their fear.

So, if the grade ground dies, the monsters will no longer fight in groups, so it seems that the army can safely destroy each individual.

Still, it doesn't seem that there is no damage at all, but it seems much better than when the boss is alive.

In addition, unlike forests and mountains, large forces can be deployed on the grassland, so that the benefits of group battles can be achieved, and that the demons of this Parkenian grassland are relatively weak.

If you hunt with a few adventurers, it seems to be a relatively beginner area.

"Well, I'll give you a lead to the Grade Ground as soon as possible!"

We were already dressed up looking down on the grade ground with the magic of flight, but the overlooked grade ground seems to be very disliked by us.

He was intimidating us with a roar that could tear the eardrum.

"Guru?"

"So let's get started! The rest is a collision of power!"

After all, the strategy is to defeat the grade ground with just three people, but there is nothing very complicated in the operation itself.

It was impossible to conduct detailed operations against the violent violence in front of you.

In the first place, the fact that about 2,000 adventurer mercenary troops that the adventurous guild headquarters temporarily recruited to the royal capital stationed outside the territory does not participate in anti-dragon fighting at all is an unnecessary sacrifice if you join poorly Is increased.

The breath of a dragon will die immediately if a human eats anything of any attribute.

So, even if people who can not prepare for breath participate, only the dead will increase in vain.

We were supposed to challenge the grade ground as a few elite assassins.

Also, this is incidentally, but I'm sorry that the Els are also my servants, so they seem to be gathering forces as a Baumeister Baron's army and participating in the demon suppression campaign.

The reason seems to be the complicated situation peculiar to the aristocrats.

While preparing to sortie at the garrison, Erich came there and was asked to raise money because he had to form a Baumeister Baron Army and have him sortie.

Also, Erich and his brother will be participating as vice-general and chief of staff.

If you are Erich, you wouldn't imitate your money.

"The boy concentrates solely on storing the magic power of the cutter tornado! Blantaq will be able to inject magic at any time!"

"Confirmed!"

"Leave it to me"

When this happens, the only way to do this is to stomach this huge old dragon.

In the plan of operation, I was to release a strategic wind system magic cutter tornado while always maintaining the same distance as the grade ground with the magic of flight.

In fact, the name of the magic in this world is quite vague.

Naturally, a talented wizard only consumes his magic and embodies the phenomenon imagined in his head, but it is already tens of thousands of years since the ancient magical civilization era, There are quite a few magics left as anchoco books.

For example, when it comes to fire-based magic, few magicians can think of a fireball.

The rest are fire arrows, fire walls, and fire snakes.

If you have magical powers, there are a lot of materials with slightly different descriptions, and if you have a teacher, you will use the teachings to get the magic in the most convenient way.

When casting spells, some people have no chanting, others have spell names, and some have spells of short poems like spells.

Some more amazing people took fancy dances and poses.

In short, embody the magic in a way that suits you.

By the way, I am a non-chanting group.

I used to think about embarrassing flashy poses and words like poems that were terrible, but I didn't use them now because of their embarrassing power.

“The flame of Guren who answers my guidance and burns out his enemies.” I was only twelve years old, but it was the medical record of a respectable illness patient.

"No chanting would be best. In words, I can not understand the nature of the spell by the other party. '

"Can you say that kind of embarrassing line? The power of magic will fall!

Since both Master and Blantark were so, I would have been the correct answer as their disciple.

We are a non-chanting group, commonly called.

Apart from whether such factions exist.

Returning to the story, the upcoming opponent, Grade Ground, is, as the name implies, an old-age attribute dragon with earth attributes.

There are four basic types of magic in this world: fire, water, earth, and wind.There are holy people who can rarely use it, and there is darkness that is used by demons who are no longer treated as lore. It is said.

Except for special systems, each of the four basic systems has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Fire is weak to water, water is to soil, soil is to wind, and wind is to fire.

Since Grade Ground is an attribute dragon of earth system, I was thinking of burying it at once with a high-powered strategic wind magic cutter tornado.

To be precise, it was Armstrong's strategy.

"A boy is already more than just a certain amount of magic. For a certain amount of magic power is a little more than Alfred. So Todome is up to the boy. '

Before the start of the operation, I was listening to the contents of the operation from the Armstrong mentor at the field base where the garrison was stationed.

"With the biggest wind magic that boys can use, bury Grade Grand at once"

"It's reasonable. The shaved man who ascended an undead ancient dragon in that dense holy light. There is enough chance to win. "

"Blantaq was in favor and good."

Mr Blantark also agreed with Armstrong Guru's strategy.

"However, this magic takes time to save."

If you can't do it well and you can't stab, you will fall.

I state that I need at least two minutes.

Considering the matter of saving, in fact, the previous time when the magic was stored in the magic airship was more advantageous.

"Is it two minutes?"

I calculated that it would take two minutes to deploy the cutter tornado, which would surely bury the Grade Ground.

Moreover, if you receive an attack such as breath on the way, the magic barrier will delay the accumulation of magic power.

I remember that during the battle with the ancient dragon earlier, Ms. Blantark was guaranteed to protect the magical airship, so it was quite easy mentally.

"If it's two minutes, there's no problem if you fight with all your might. A boy prepares a cutter tornado from a distance. Certainly, fighting the grade ground with all his might. Blanc-Taak wants to replenish his magical power in the event he runs out of reserve magic power.

"Please leave me"

Refilling magic is the act of dividing magic into others, as the name suggests.

However, few magicians can use this special magic.

Well, to be precise, everyone can use it, but there is a huge loss when dividing into others.

If you are a normal wizard, you can use your magical power to replenish only about 5 opponents.

In, it didn't take much time to come to the conclusion that it was better to use my own magic without sharing it with others.

Blantaq, however, can use his hundreds to replenish his opponent with more than ninety-five.

It was no exaggeration to say that this was a rare talent.

As expected, this magical replenishment could not be met by the teacher or me.

Blantaq is also lower in the advanced category in terms of magical power.

However, because you can use such magic that few other wizards can use, it is also considered by Armstrong Guru.

As a veteran, “good witch” was evaluated by the surrounding people.

"Isn't Blanctag taking turns fighting?

"I could do it in my active era, but it would be impossible for me now"

For that reason, it seems to replenish the magical power to Armstrong Guru.

"But I don't think I'll actually refill it. I'm really back reserve '

"Because Blantark will hold you in the rear, you can afford a lot."

Yes, it is exactly what Armstrong says.

Challenge a strong enemy under slightly difficult conditions and win at the last minute.

There is no problem if the saga is read by children, but there is no other way than fools to be cornered in actual combat.

Because I and Blantaq are fighting an ancient dragon, the probability of attacking an attribute dragon with three people, including Armstrong Guru, is quite high.

If so, the rest of the strategy should have been more certain.

"I think that one person will win with a 60% probability, but that is irresponsible as the first palace mage."

Armstrong Guru has a reputation for being a talent in the kingdom that is said to be once every 500 years.

Furthermore, he has a good family.

Since he is the second son of the Earl Family, he is less troubled and obstructed by other nobles.

In addition, his personality is refreshing in this way, and he does not imitate trying to store more private property than necessary, having a strong desire for power, and trying to form a strange faction.

It looks ugly, but it looks like this is surprisingly smart and understands politics.

Mr. Erich told her that His Majesty was the most trusted vassal.

When we were called to the garrison in the suburbs, Erich, who came to visit the garrison and gave me the information, reconfirmed that he was a good-looking guy.

Don't think about the fact that you're following a consultation on organizing the Baumeister's Baron Army.

"Yes. If you die now, your Majesty will be harsh. '

"That's why I'm grateful to the boy and Blantaq."

After these interactions, we were facing the Grade Ground alone.

First, Armstrong Guru jumps out in front of Grade Ground, holding that huge cane with both hands, and shouts a word.

"Mado armor! @ Equipped!"

Then, the whole body of Armstrong Guru, including the face, is covered with jet-black full face armor.

The wand I had had turned into a giant hammer that made the red magicite disappear.

"Now!"

"Well, that's exactly what it looks like."

Blantaq, who is also floating in the air right next to me, who is accumulating the magic of the cutter tornado while floating in the air diagonally backwards, leaked out.

"It's a special magic that materializes magical power. Its defense is overwhelmingly higher than the magic barrier. The wand also turns into a hammer through materialization to increase its power."

Furthermore, the physical ability is strengthened to the limit, and the kingdom of the kingdom is the magic speed of the flight.

Simply put, they seem to be fighting like a destroyer, killing enemies with overwhelming fighting abilities.

Armstrong mentor, on the head, arms, and feet, while playing around with the grade ground vertically and horizontally.

Randomly hit the dragon's whole body with a hammer and damage it.

Every time a blow is decided, there is an unpleasant noise.

Grade Ground was roaring, tearing the sky continuously, with so much pain and rage.

"awesome……"

"It's not like this yet ..."

However, the Grade Ground was not just being beaten.

Grasp the movement habits of Armstrong Guru and launch a shake-off attack using the tail at the future movement position.

If a normal human eats such a blow, it will definitely pop like a water balloon.

"Dangerous!"

"Should be fine"

Blantark wasn't worried at all, but he wasn't.

Did you foresee it?

Armstrong Guru grabbed the tail of Grade Ground, which was shaken at high speed, and threw that huge body off.

"seriously!"

"Material armor is just for defense. The favourite lies in that powerful and incomparable physical ability magic."

More surprises continue.

The Armstrong guru was hitting the grade ground that had recovered from the tossed damage and stood one after another with a wind magic dressed as a snake.

The weakness of the earth grade is the magic of the wind.

The grade ground was gradually becoming full of wounds, and bleeding had started in several places.

"Boy! Are you ready!"

"Um, okay!"

I was inadvertently fond of the sight of the shock, but of course I have not forgotten the magical savings.

Since the time was a little over two minutes, the necessary magical power has accumulated.

I released the Cutter Tornado magic after seeing Armstrong Guru evacuating quickly.

The magic of this cutter tornado, as the name suggests, initially covers the target with a tornado.

Continuously, sharp blades with wind attributes are created one after another from the tornado, causing the target to be wounded one after another.

The Grade Ground roars as the number of wounds increases, and the tornado continues to turn red.

The flowing blood gets caught in the tornado and gradually thickens the red.

And, the deeper the tornado red, the more the Grade Ground loses blood in the body.

"Will you be killed or die with a lot of bleeding?

"It's a master's skill?"

"I always had a cool face and the demons weren't tolerated."

A few minutes later, Grade Ground, which almost ran out of blood in the body, fell to the ground with a loud sound.

Even the strongest creatures on earth will die if they lose blood.

"As expected, an attribute dragon. Did he die from a cut?"

"Well, by the way ..."

Grade Grand is dead, but that was not the end.

When I approach the red tornado that is still swirling, I begin to use the magic of the water system this time.

"What are you doing?"

"Dragon blood is expensive."

Actually, there was no reward from the kingdom in this grade grand defeat.

Because he served as a noble's duty.

Since there is usually a rise from pensions and territories, there is no help for it because it is a mission to return its benefits, but noblemen often loot on the battlefield for that purpose.

It's a bad thing, but yes, the kingdom did not have enough money to pay for the aristocracy, and this was tolerated.

Since there has been no war for the past two hundred years, there has been no looting itself, and since the opponent was a monster, it was strange that looting was done from monsters.

Instead, the soldiers are rewarded with the Grade Ground defeat and the subsequent demon elimination operations in the Parquenian grasslands.

That is the right to make the material of the hunted monster your own.

The monster material sells very high.

Therefore, it was rumored that the soldiers participating in the operation were very excited.

Since the adventurers are gathering in large quantities this time, it seems that they are feeling more competitive and more excited.

Although it smells bloody and sacrifices, soldiers luxury with family and lovers with extraordinary income selling monster materials, and merchants and guilds who obtained the material make various goods using it , It sells.

The kingdom also raises tax revenues, and above all, the Parquenian grasslands, which were the territory of demons, are opened to become a vast granary.

If this is done, agricultural land development will progress further and grain production will increase.

The supply of meat that has traditionally relied on hunting should increase with the use of its cereals and grasslands.

Distant aristocrats who supplied grain to the royal capital with a low food self-sufficiency rate will also benefit from being able to supply meat to their neighbors by livestock, although their profits on grain sales will decrease.

If you talk about it economically, it's an old story because the transaction amount increases.

"That's why I get dragon blood."

I use the magic of water to combine the blood that is dancing in the tornado into one place, freeze it, and put that mass into a magic bag.

"I'm so dexterous, shaved."

"The teacher is a very dexterous person."

It can be said to be the achievement of years.

There are many things that are useful and convincing to Mr. Blanc Tak's magic that I have been receiving guidance during the regular period.

Mr. Blanc-Taak has also stated that he will not give instruction that focuses on basics and power like a teacher.

It is said that you can do it yourself.

"The rest is a corpse of Grade Grand."

In addition to blood, the dragon's body has no parts that can not be used, and it can sell high anywhere.

So, I was quickly putting a grade ground in a magic bag.

Because the time has not passed in the bag, I want to be dismantled in the guild later.

As expected, it is difficult for me to dismantle a dragon, and if I spend too much time on it, the quality of meat and the like will drop and the price will drop.

This should be left to professionals.

"Armstrong Guru, the profit of the sale of Grade Grand is divided into three people, isn't it?"

"Oh, that's fine, but that cutter tornado was brilliant. In terms of power, Alfred has already surpassed him. I will continue to train hard in the future."

"Yes"

"Now, some people have defeated Grade Ground, so no monsters should come here for a while. We'll be camping today and preparing for the hunt for monsters tomorrow."

"Hey?"

"What did you say now?"

I and Blantaq are surprised at the unexpected remarks from Armstrong.

The task is to defeat the Grade Grounds so that the army and adventurers can fight monsters, and if we do so badly, they will take their jobs. .

"No matter how much the grade ground falls, the number of surviving demons is large. Therefore, if we do not help, there will be useless sacrifices. We look forward to fighting tomorrow."

"I'm still minor and haven't experienced ordinary monster hunting ..."

"The first and second anti-monster fights are dragons, and the shaven has a terrible experience. But I'm already retired ..."

"It's a trivial matter if we work together."

After all, for a week after that, the three of us ran all the way through the Parkenian prairie and committed ourselves to hunting many monsters.

"Um, even if I hunt monsters ..."

"Because Elvin is Vell's name, you have to be on the front line."

"If you don't, you can't return the money to Vell."

"Because I get a reward as a great role."

"Is it more than a piece of gold?"

"..."

"Mr. Erich! Don't shut up there!"

During that time, he seemed to be spending days with stomach ache as a miniature mikoshi of the Baumeister Baron's Army, which Els was not used to.
