I keep hitting the magic arrow.

Nine-headed dragons come packing their distance as they endure it.

How long has it been?

Such a sight - as if nothing would change the stop picture situation persisted all the time.

There are only two things that have changed.

The fact that the head dragon has lost up to four necks.

That the distance between me and the Nine-headed Dragon has been reduced by a third - to about four kilometers.

"Magic Arrow, Magic Arrow, Magic Arrow -"

Not good......

Nine-headed dragon's neck still has about half of it left after a start dash. Yet the distance I kept was shredded to a third.

Apparently, the expansion is against me.

... Now, what do I do?

Running away in a magic arrow flight is one hand - but the speed at which the nine-headed dragon travels may pack the distance at once the moment I loosen the magic arrow.

I didn't think it was very handy.

Do we have to keep hitting the magic arrow here until the end?

Nine-headed dragons are also scratched. I don't even have room for the rest of my neck. Limits should be close.

I haven't decided to lose yet.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Running all the way from the village, Laura stopped her legs and breathed on her shoulders. He has a little wand in his right hand with the magic of writing.

Finally I came through the depressed "Ugly" forest to a place with a view of the lake.

Laura looks to the lake as she breathes.

――

For the first time, Laura saw a nine-headed dragon.

It was a giant dragon with nine necks, as taught by the Great Village Chief. A large body, just mistaken for a mountain, stands "tight".

That dragon...

A huge number of white arrows continue to fly from the middle belly of the mountain opposite.

That's where Alberto is.

That's Alberto's magic arrow. Its power often seals the movement of the nine-headed dragon.

I seal it well - but it's not perfect.

To that evidence, the nine-headed dragon has already crawled up from the lake and, to a considerable extent, approached the mountain with Alberto.

"... Mr. Alberto!

I'm not sure what the situation is.

But he's definitely not an easy opponent to beat.

(... I need to help...!

I want you to stay in the village.

That's why Laura got here in defiance of hope from Alberto.

I want to help Alberto.

Because...

Because Laura now is not a helpless Laura before the summer vacation.

My hand with Laura's cane shivers slightly.

(... if you use the sorcery of the Witch of Disaster -)

In Laura's head, the sorcery of the catastrophic witch I saw in that library remained neat.

Just like mastered witchcraft.

Probably...

The conditions are in place that Laura can activate if she wants.

(Of course, if I had my magic, but...)

The original sorcery of the Witch of Disaster.

I don't know if I can handle that.

No, before that...

I was scared.

"Never get involved with a catastrophic witch."

That was taught many times in the village.

What do you know about the Witch of Disaster?

It is the power of the Witch of Disaster itself.

I was afraid that such power was in my head.

I was afraid to use such force.

But Laura's got the power.

I have the power.

And Alberto is struggling in front of him.

I was given a choice.

Do you save him in front of you? Would you like to save it?

Until now, it was easy.

Because there was no such choice. There's nothing Laura can do, just wait for Alberto to do something about it.

But not anymore.

Laura has power. The same 'power to choose the world' as Alberto.

Do you save him in front of you? Would you like to save it?

It has already been decided, for example, the answer to that question.

If Laura didn't use her powers here, Laura would regret it all the time.

I can't help but be horrible and horrible.

We have to abandon that emotion here and now.

(That's right! It's for Mr. Alberto!

Laura made up her mind.

Sorcery of the Witch of Disaster - activate one of its secret moves.

"Hear my voice, O power to corrupt all that is in heaven. I tell you, chains that bind heavy" Joo "!"

Laura started chanting.

Chanting has two uses.

The first is to make up for my lack of strength.

If fully mastered, most sorcery can be used only by the words that trigger it, but chanting can increase the success rate.

The second is because magic is too powerful.

Because it's too powerful to handle on people's own.

That was the magic Laura was going to use.

Because...

Because this is Shinki magic.

Why could the Witch of Disaster - just a sorcerer - have fought the kingdom against her?

The answer becomes divine magic.

Unlike normal sorcery, Divine Sorcery is a powerful sorcery that affects ultra-wide, ultra-long range.

Namely - so much so that it is considered the domain of God.

The number published as an existing sorcery book can be counted.

Even those, most magicians can't even master them.

The Witch of Disaster manipulated countless of the original divine magic known only to her, relative to the kingdom.

Now Laura is trying to activate one of those magic tricks.

It's the magic of manipulating gravity.

Magic that binds every thing of weight to the earth and seals off its movements.

With this sorcery...

You should be able to buy some time at least!

After a long, long chant, eventually...

"The Invisible Commandment of God (Gravity Chain)!"

Laura uttered words that would trigger her by pointing a cane at the nine-headed dragon.
