Legend

"No way, you didn't think Dragonias would attack you when you got here."

That's how Ray squeaks on the ramp leading down to the basement.

On the side of such a ray, Seto looked around intriguingly, and Vihella had strong expectations for the battle that would take place.

"Of course we know that the phantom that was hiding our home base has been lifted. When you do, why don't you think you're waiting in the basement rather than fighting poorly?

"Maybe I am. I have a head that I can think about at least that much..."

"Grrrrrrrr?"

To Ray and Vihera's conversation, Seto stays like this? and gaze at Ray.

Naturally, Ray isn't going to go anywhere where where he's going to be waiting for a straight enemy like this either.

"No, I'm not going down yet. First, we need to keep the basement warm from here."

"... I wonder what kind of warmth Ray is talking about? Burning heat?

"I don't deny it.... Whatever, just give it a try before Dragonias strikes"

Having taken the Death Size out of Mystering, Ray ponders what magic to use.

Even though underground...... Ray doesn't know exactly how deep the place is.

Beyond that, even if we were to use the magic of the flames, in the case of the kind of magic that would cause an explosion, that was what could have caused the ground to sink.

Think for a few seconds...... I've been in trouble and decided to try new magic.

This is where sensationalists come in surprise.

Theoreticalists assemble their magical compositions from the beginning to create new magic, but in the case of sensationalists, they use magic with their senses according to their name.

... theorists prevail in terms of teaching someone magic, but sensationalists were definitely higher in terms of creating new magic.

"Flames, flames. Thou shalt spread everywhere, and burn everything that toucheth. The vast flames envelop all of it with flames, even beyond the horizon '

The composition of the spell drains Ray's magic considerably.

This magic can be used because it is a ray that specializes in flames and has enormous magic.

Stick a Death Size Stone Penetration to the ground...... magic activates.

"Ravaging Flames"

A fierce flame is created where it is piercing the Death Size Stone Penetration… At the next moment, the exploding flame proceeds as it burns the ground in the direction indicated by Ray.

The flame continues down the passage leading to the underground in the direction of progress… Naturally, it burns everything that lies ahead of the flame.

"It's amazing magic again.... For once, can I assume that the mighty enemies won't burn?

"I don't know. If you just had enough strength to withstand my flames, you'd survive.... Red Scale Dragonias will survive."

Red scaled dragonias, resistant to flames, are opponents that Ray's magic has never been able to kill.

Beyond that, Dragonias, who would probably be underground, the red scaled Dragonias should have survived.

... Nevertheless, red scaled dragonias have strong resistance to flames, but that's all they are characterized by.

If you try to make it a common centaur, it definitely has a degree of strength that is difficult to win, but at the same time it is only that degree of strength.

Compared to special beings like gold, silver scale dragonias, and speckled dragonias, their strength is low without even thinking about it.

That's why Ray didn't care that much, even if the red scaly dragonias remained.

... Although it was an unmistakable fact that Ray is more of a troublesome opponent than the flaming magic he is good at doesn't work.

"So, how long the hell do I have to wait? I hear screams and stuff from inside."

Vihera asks Ray as he looks at the ramp that leads to the basement.

The word that screams could be heard was not a lie, but also in Ray's ears, sharper than ordinary people, screaming from the basement.

Naturally, Seto, who has an even sharper five senses than Ray, would have heard the scream clearer.

"I don't care how much they say. It's the first magic I've ever used, so I honestly can't say anything. If this were on the ground, it would have been easier to understand."

If it were on the ground, it would have been easy for Ray to see what the magic he used would have done.

But this time it was underground that used magic.

What the hell is going on in that basement right now... that Ray had no idea either.

At first, I noticed it was an individual who was close to the ground among the dragonias underground.

In the present basement, many dragonias are gathered… in the place where they are based, that is the number of them as far as we can see.

Such numbers were only gathering, and individuals, naturally speaking, who could not enter the basement, had also come out and been driven to the edge.

The dragonias were one of those individuals.

The hunger instincts that Dragonias possesses also fit quite well while in this basement.

Of course, even though it fits, it's not like we're completely hungry anymore, but the orders from the queen who created us were overwhelmingly superior to our instinct of hunger.

That is why, with an order from the Queen, even if she is starving to death, she will not move from the spot in any way... to such an extent as strong coercion is at work.

In this case, for that dragonias, it could be said that it was disastrous.

That dragonias, which was waiting on the ramp leading to the ground, was as if water flowed down the ramp… because it had seen the flames flowing through its eyes.

What it is, that is what Dragonias swallows into the flames without being able to even notice at all, and his consciousness is engulfed in darkness.

One of them was the first.

As if, the flames that have flowed down the ramp so that the water flows, one dragonias after the other, wrapped in its flames.

"Njapapannaja!"

One of the dragonias screams like that...... So finally, the dragonias who were near the ramp noticed something unusual too, turn their faces to you.

I suppose we could move more flashy if we were supposed to... unfortunately, Dragonias cannot move very much nowadays due to a relationship that is tightly controlled by the Queen.

And he stays motionless, swallowed by one flame after another.

What's troubling about this flame is that I've only had a few dragonias, and that momentum won't diminish at all.

The way it swallows one after another even seems like an infinite flame that goes on everywhere if you try to be the watcher.

And where nearly a hundred dragonias that were near the slopes were swallowed by flames and other than the red scaled dragonias became charcoal, those who are finally in the center of the basement also notice abnormalities.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle!"

Unexpectedly such a sound...... no, my voice echoes around me and the dragonias who heard it suddenly start to move, as if it was a lie that had stopped moving until now.

The dragonias of silver and gold scales each began to move in an effort to stop the flames flowing through the ground.

The commandments made by such persons are not so complicated.

That is why he gave instructions to the red scaled dragonias one after the other, ordering them to quench the flames.

There was a red scaled dragonias that was working perfectly fine in the flames, which is definitely the way you can do it. I'm pretty sure... even if the red scaled dragonias try to stop their body from flaming instead of walling, they can't really pull it off altogether than they are dragonias.

Even if the two dragonias try to be a barrier, they really create some gaps.

In addition, this underground space does not flatten the ground.

Even the body of a red scaled dragonias cannot be imitated in such a way as to block the ground without gaps.

And the flames that have flowed easily through the ground, even from such a small place, pass through.

The red scaled dragonias are desperately trying to seal it, but if they try to seal the gap that is open, it naturally clears up elsewhere, and the flames flowing from it burn the other dragonias one after the other.

"Giggy, giggy, giggy, giggy!"

As earlier, such a voice sounds again in the underground space… at that moment, the ground flourishes.

That's just like when Ray used his terrain manipulation skills...... no, if you think about five meters high soil walls were created, the scale of that capability would obviously be higher than Ray's.

So while you're at it, given that it's not at all enough to reach the ceiling part of the underground space, you can easily imagine how big this underground space is all about.

She was the queen of Dragonias who tried to seal the waves of flames by such earthwalls... but the waves of flames, even with earthwalls, would not be a problem.

Instead of burning and destroying dirt walls, flame waves move along dirt walls and continue to progress.

Where the red scale dragonias accidentally completely blocked it, the flames stopped without moving on.

There were also places where the bodies of Dragonias, who had been burned to death and turned into charcoal, were accidentally replacing the walls, but the waves of flames overcame and continued to advance without the way they cared about it.

This would recognize the person who burns as an unwilling being… a corpse, but a dirt wall, but if such is the case, the person who should be overcome rather than burned for a wave of flames.

That's how they burn one after the other, Dragonias.

The unfortunate fortune for the Dragonias was that on this occasion there would have been a Queen... who would have united Dragonias.

By that Dragonias order, the other Dragonias did not imitate the noise, just that they should defeat themselves from the top of the hill... No, they were waiting for the person to eat to come.

That's why I don't imitate anything particularly noisy when I see my people being burned, and I honestly follow the orders of the higher… dragonias of gold, silver, and copper scales.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle!"

and, once again, echoing within the vast underground space, the roar of the queen.

As in obeying that order, not only the red scales...... but even the dragonias with scales of other colors, proceed from themselves and plunge into the flames.

That's how you said you don't mind burning whenever you want. That would open your eyes to the difference if anyone was watching.

I try to burn myself and thereby weaken the momentum of the flames a little bit... because I'm acting so suicidal that I act like I'm not very but I don't think I'm sane.

Even if that's who you are with absolute command over yourself.

But... she's a queen because she can do it.

Make your orders obey that order with all due respect even if you are in danger of losing your life… an absolute power of command in the true sense.

As ordered by the Queen with it, the Dragonias and others surely weaken the momentum of the flames by burning their lives in the literal sense.

Our own people... in the sense that they were laid out by the Queen, there's nothing like the Dragonias think of the sight as they see one another burned to death, even a family that divided the blood.

Sometimes it's because they're dominated by hunger, but for Dragonias, I don't know what his buddies think, even if their families are killed.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle!"

A sharply honking queen.

Other... Dragonias, who was away from the flames, moves out, as prompted by that word, still had no way of penetrating into the flames.

That's what I'm just saying, even though I watched my people burn to death and become charcoal, if that doesn't matter at all, it doesn't make sense to me.

And... eventually, thousands, tens of thousands... maybe hundreds of thousands or more are not strange. Dragonias move out one after another.

And from the touched edge, one burning dragonias after another.

That's what the hell it would have been...... and it wasn't strange to think so, but the dragonias who do it don't have that awareness.

The Queen ordered me, so I just follow it.

Other than that, that's just what dominates and acts on hunger...... if you say so, it's like there's no such thing as a self in ordinary dragonias.

But... this time, that was the way it worked.

One after another... countless dragonias turn to the flames... eventually the flames disappear.

After turning countless dragonias into ashes.
