I kept being called incompetent at home, but it seemed super competent globally
Lesson 32 The Queen of Mermaids
"Ugh...!! That's incredible pressure...!!"
The moment the wave reached the membrane, the amount of magic power consumed jumped up.
I was sucked up to my magic power suddenly, and I was about to collapse.
It's about twice, no, three times the load I thought it would be...!!
Damn, if you're distracted, you'll be thrown out in no time!
"... no more!"
"Onee-sama...!"
Nino rushed to support Kurta who was about to collapse again.
However, she herself seems to be having a hard time breathing.
As it is, it will fall into collapse at this time of year.
"Uuu...!!"
"Guys, we're almost there...!"
The mermaids were heard screaming from the water.
The ones who supply me and Kurta with magical power are more burdensome than the others.
Inside, a mermaid starts to sink into the water, unable to withstand much wear and tear.
"Haha...!! Whoaa...!"
I put my strength into the core of my body and somehow squeezed out my magic power.
Perhaps I've already crossed the line somewhat, with relentless fatigue and severe headaches.
It hurts, I feel like I've been hit in the head with an iron...!!
A groan leaks in agony, but I can't just fall down now.
If I fall here, it's all over.
"Hah, hah...!"
Only a few dozen seconds left.
If you can withstand it, the waves will subside.
But those few dozen seconds are endless for me now.
Normally, it feels like eternity when you're not even aware of it.
Just a little bit, just a little bit... but I can't reach it...!!
"I can't hold it anymore...!!"
At last, I can't stand it.
The moment I thought so, the burden was lightened.
Someone who was invisible suddenly began to supply magic power.
Then, after a few seconds, the wall of water that seemed to swallow the whole town disappeared.
Looks like we made it through the big wave.
"I did it, I did it...!!"
"I protected the city!!"
Eventually, the people behind us cheered one after the other.
I want to raise my voice, but I'm too tired to even do that.
When I sat down on the spot with Stonn, I took a deep breath and somehow regulated my breathing.
It wasn't even during my special training with Sister Shell that I managed to squeeze out my magic power.
Are you okay, Noah?
"Ah, onee-san..."
Eventually, Liza-san came back and called out worriedly.
... do you think I look pale?
Where is the usual rigour, it is a very gentle atmosphere.
I barely return the call with words and nods.
"Potion, drink it."
"Thank you...."
As soon as I swallowed the potions handed over to me, my body began to relax.
...... Could this be an exposition?
It must be quite luxurious, but Liza's sister is the stone.
"It's a lot easier now, sister"
"Good. Don't push yourself too hard from now on." You looked like you were dying. "
"...... you've been so nasty?"
"Yeah, I was like a goblin."
Like Liza-san, I almost blew it.
Certainly, you'd be worried if you had that look on your face.
As I laugh, Ecclesia and Kurta approach.
"Phew, I'm glad I managed!" Zeke helped you again. "
I can't believe you saved a city. It's a big deal after all.
"...... But the battle is different." I won't admit it unless I win. "
While Kurta and the others praised me, Sister Ecclesia was strangely calm.
"No, you're trying to calm me down...?"
The words and facial expressions are calm, but I don't realize that my glasses are misaligned.
Looks like I've been through a crisis and I'm losing my mind a lot.
"Of course I'll do the battle." Besides, I just felt a lot of magic... "
That said, I looked around again.
However, I didn't see the huge amount of magic power I felt earlier.
From what I felt before, it was almost comparable to Sister Shell... "
When I spread the detection range even further, I felt a huge amount of magic power under the water.
Could this be...!!
Well done, child of man.
Eventually, the owner of the magical power that quickly surfaced appeared after cracking the lake surface.
A majestic mermaid with a big spear.
The body was bigger than any other mermaid, and a beautiful coral crown shone on its head.
Looks like she's the queen of the mermaids.
The other mermaids bowed their heads deeply to match their appearance.
So, the biggest mermaid in the world!?
"Were you really there?!"
"Wow, you're such a beauty..."
The people of the city were greatly surprised to see the queen.
In addition, they notice that the mermaids are gathering under the pier and keep an eye on them.
I was desperate to unleash my magic, so I didn't know the mermaids were here.
"You just saved us, didn't you?" Thank you very much. "
No, thank you very much.
Having said that, the queen had distant eyes that reminded her of the past.
Then, I look at the streets of Elmar and tell them with pleasure.
“This is a city that matters to us, too.
The first Valdemar family to lay the foundations of this city has a shallow edge. ”
Suddenly, the queen took out something like a pendant from her chest.
There was a picture of a gentlemanly man.
