Hyaku Ma No Aruji

Large, flaky body.

sharp angled wings as they are to cleave rather than catch the wind.

The limbs of the organism have not lost their suppleness, even as the tree feels a tough core.

Obviously the organism was good at walking.

Intuitively, it was a gesture that made the beholder think so.

Ground Dragon (Railnote).

It is the superior species of the ecosystem, sometimes even called the king of the terrestrial biological world.

And the...

- "Adult."

Merea said zero such words in her chest.

The ground dragon visible behind his sight had a much larger body than Melea's riding black scaled ground dragon Noel.

It's not just the size, but the development of each part of the body is obviously different.

Merea's head was instantly switching to a state of battle at the same time as deciding it was an adult.

The other demon kings are still bewildered by this situation. Besides, only Merea pales into the situation analysis.

- Is that all?

The sand and dust were swept once by a breeze of ravenous ravens, but the dust that followed quickly rose from the feet of the earth dragon.

It's like smoke, and it just brings sumptuousness to the scenery around the dragon.

- No, there are two other heads.

But Merea's broad field of view and moving vision did not retrieve the information she had exposed only for a moment from that dusty corner.

I saw two tails with colors slightly different from the ground dragon I just saw.

But that still leaves an element of anxiety to finalize the situation.

- Gather the information. Consolidate and predict.

The sand and dust drift slightly from left to right on a breeze, thanks to which the size of the sand and dust is limited.

Predict the size of the two remaining ground dragons from the body of an adult ground dragon just now and apply it to the sight of sight.

- You can't hide four heads in that dust.

Had it been windless, the dust would have stagnated scattered around the perimeter and more widely hidden the figure of the ground dragon as the curtain of the sand.

At this time, however, the breeze helped Melea predict.

Three heads in total. Let it be finalized.

That's how Merea analyzed the exact enemy forces in front of her, and now turned her awareness to her rear.

Send a gaze of observation at the demon kings as they slightly turn their faces backwards.

- Half.

It was the number of demon kings who at first glance seemed to put them in a state of battle.

Those who saw firmly the figure of the Grounddragon in front of the line may have quickly entered a state of battle after being inspired by its survival instincts.

But those who were behind the horses could have been blinded by the dust again while trying to see the earth dragon from among the demon kings running in front.

Words issued warnings, but not to mention the words that were on that warning were 'hard facts to believe'.

Melea sincerely thought it would be quicker to see than to hear at times like this.

But shortly after--

――

Coming.

Wind.

It is a gust of dust blowing again.

Merea seemed to rejoice inside in a convenient breeze for a moment, but soon paid off the idea.

- It was the other way around.

- That's not good.

In sight was a three-headed earth dragon that would be what Merea expected.

And as soon as it was exposed...

I heard the sound of the air freezing behind me.

I felt the revealing of an overt tension that didn't actually sound, but I thought so unexpectedly.

The tension of the demon kings reached its climax when they saw the dragons of the three lands.

Perhaps the reason the Grounddragons were hiding themselves with dust was to get closer this way before showing off their impactful posture.

Even the demon kings, who had seen the shadow of the earth dragon and were in a state of battle, now seemed constricted to its clear contour.

Melea wondered if she should utter any words.

If you are a war-torn warrior accustomed to leading many, you may have raised your voice of inspiration at times like this to convert the tension on your side into morale.

But I've never led a group, and Merea...

I didn't hear a word.

◆ ◆ ◆

And when Merea is turning her thoughts around in the short space of time, the five senses capture another piece of information.

- Left.

On the left side of Merea's vision, the dust appeared again.

It's another piece of dust that is currently rolling up in a progressive form.

This one was more like a smoke rising in the aftermath of the disease than to hide itself.

Thus, Merea's vision easily captures the presence that was in it.

- Black armor...!

It was "Army of the Cavalry".

An army of cavalry dressed in black light armor and sticking straight into this way as if to demonstrate some Mooseg crest flags.

Unlike the three ground dragons at the front of his sight, it was the horses whose cavalry was riding.

I couldn't help but notice the huge number of people watching, but at the same time, Merea was looking at the other side.

- You just got here over there too...!

Black armor giving instructions at the head of the cavalry.

A lineup that was only slightly extended in the rear.

A rush that spills out from time to time.

Instead of being ambushed, it was exactly what I just said I'd gotten here now.

Given that there are only ground dragons at the tip of this nose in the first place, I wonder if they are not in a disc stone state over there.

- Is the dragon grounded?

To see from this situation, I guess he tried to get ahead of the fast-paced grounddragon and stop him.

Anyway, I still have a distance from that cavalry main unit.

If only the ground dragon in front of you could do something about it, it's possible that that cavalry squad could break through the scene before it blocks (whispers) the way.

――

Merea had yet to make a decision.

Two choices.

Stop and intercept your legs and run into the east side with a gap.

Run east all at once with this momentum.

Either way, the exit must be secured on the east side. The whole siege of being denied exit is synonymous with death.

-... interception? Give me that?

But Merea quickly cut the first option.

I don't want to talk about it alone.

But when she looked backwards, Merea couldn't help but cut it.

Are they gathered in that number, that they may defend all the sides and backs of the demons from their countless hands?

Help everyone. That's a certainty.

- Hands, eyes, feet and. I wish I had how many bodies.... I just have to stick it through like this.

Merea made up her mind.

'Himself' the ground dragon standing on that eastern side, sliding the demon kings in there.

Once you break through and secure your exit on the east side, you just have to intercept there for the first time.

Interception while retreating could still work.

I'd also like to crush the ground dragon at an early stage to do that, but you can actually think in parallel while touching it.

Anyway,

- Let him go.

If so, can the demon kings move without moving during sudden combat situations that do not pinch this gap?

What I just saw about the demon kings crossed the back of Melea's brain.

……

I still want the "Voice of the (When)" that inspires morale at times like this.

So I cut them, and I opened my mouth to see if I could blow their flicks.

- Wouldn't your voice tremble?

Two, those words were coming up, and Merea was stiffening the movement of her mouth.

◆ ◆ ◆

Merea had a natural voice called "Vocal Cord of the Raku King (Jurn-Yura)".

Charming, enchanting.

It's a voice that resonates well with people's hearts.

Because Merea herself knew about it, I thought I should give her a 'whisper' here if possible.

At least for the quality of your voice, you should have the right one.

- But,

- Will the words even come out?

If I had been honest, I would have been anxious.

Spin (tweet) words so that they can be sounded word for word, word for word.

In the first place, can I choose the right words for inspiration?

Can the words so chosen really spark their struggle?

Different concerns (kennels) passed through the back of his brain in an instant, and many thoughts ran around (meshed) in his head, stalling Merea's mouth half open.

Noel, with Melea on board, keeps a constant speed in discipline until he receives instructions from Melea to move forward.

Gradually and gradually, we approach the three earth dragons straight.

Noel was waiting for the voice of the Lord.

And I'm sure they'll be driving behind it with horses.

And then, in just a few seconds, Merea went on a tour, and finally...

――

Melea 'closed her mouth'.

◆ ◆ ◆

After much thought, Merea stopped raising her voice.

- If you screw it up, it upsets you instead.

Even with regard to its dangerous potential, Melea had a good grasp.

It was a possibility that came to mind because I grasped my position without multiplying it.

There is no self-love, no vanity.

It is one possibility, built on objectivity.

- If I get a little upset, everyone gets upset.

How can I be in such a position with this group?

It was strange at first, but I've been talking to everyone and I know a little bit about why.

And myself gradually embraced the role.

Be prepared and responsible for yourself.

That's why I could also clearly recognize the possibility of upsetting everyone if I screwed up.

So Merea,

- You, show me in action.

The policy was changed.

I am unfamiliar with giving you a 'whisper'.

Now, it's on this chest that I'm ready to cut ahead.

In a battle at the summit of Lindholm Spiritual Mountain, he also has experience.

Then I'm sure it won't screw up.

So...

- You, get out of here before anyone else.

Cut ahead.

Even a shield.

A sword is fine.

Just between them and the enemy,

- Stand yourself up.

◆ ◆ ◆

so that they can be at all, reassured.

◆ ◆ ◆

Merea dared to stop shouting.

Instead, he decides to let himself stand on the arrow before any of the demon kings.

I was instantly convinced that that was probably the most appropriate way for me.

- Push through.

"- Go!!"

Finally, Merea screamed.

That was an order.

It was the demon kings in the rear who were at the spearhead of Merea's command.

And the demon kings in the rear, who received such a voice, understood the meaning of the word "go" by Merea.

I was guessing in a flash.

The short words weren't so daunting as to make you feel at leisure.

"Eh."

That was what inspired them.

The Demon Kings were aware of why Merea was spinning those words and what action she was about to move to next.

Answers I've dated Melea so far and followed naturally.

That is why in the next moment they turned the tension into determination and tried to reside a struggle in the body.

And when they realize Merea's intentions,

"Art Expansion -"

Merea was on Noel's back, clapping one applause.

White Thunder ran through the universe, as the other three earth dragons accidentally did.
