"This is... spiritual peak kufu..."

The mountain in front of us was obviously something different... giving it a different vibe.

Of course, it is overwhelmed by its size, but all the mountain skins that should normally be visible at this height are hidden by the black trees and, by their appearance, are different from the other mountains.

Into such spiritual peaks, it is dark as night, even though the weather is cloudy, I suppose.

"(b) Dear Lord......"

"That's disgusting air... I don't know if I'm starving..."

"Let's go. I've been here a couple of times, so I know the way."

"Ah, Mr. Luca, hey..."

"Hmm? Were you scared?

"No... I'll call my people. Leviataine!"

Calling the red sword "Tsukugi" from the notebook, I give life immediately.

The red sword Tsurugi changed her appearance in an instant, and for the first time in a long time, she laughed niggardly as she let the cloak of flames wander.

"Long time no see, Lord. Not since I had a drink in Nieberg..."

Yes, her wish is to drink.

It has already been fulfilled.

"Long time no see, Leviataine. I'm sorry to use it instead of lights, but will you light up the road?

"Cheap. I'll take care of Shinkansen."

"Well, is this the magic of life... as did the two of us yesterday, but I don't know what... you feel the power of this world. Excellent. Well, thank you very much, Mr. Leviataine."

"Aye. Let's go."

The flaming cloak of Leviataine lit up a dark mountain path, thanks to which it was considerably better than earlier.

But I still feel the unpleasant atmosphere wrapping around my body.

It's like I'm gripping my gut in something...... I don't like it anyway.

I guess Mr. Luca doesn't feel that way or anything. I climb up the mountain path with a small body.

Luca herself wouldn't know, but we knew she was easy to clean simply because of her skills.

Her skills are "super gall".

Levi said he didn't cower at anything and seems to have the skill to feel stronger anyway.

So I guess I can stay flat without being drunk by the atmosphere of this spiritual peak.

Mr. Luca, maybe it's a skill I don't need...

That's how you climb mountain roads for a few hours.

The hillside road, which was a slope where I snagged a little, turned into a flat ground.

"Mr. Luca, is this the place?

"Yeah, this mountain is one turn smaller from the middle belly. Only for that matter are flats created, and more dense black forests are created than the trees that grew on the slopes. And there's a collection point in the woods."

"I see..."

"Well... will the devil or the dragon... shall we keep our minds shut"

We nod to Mr. Luca and follow her into the woods.

Even darker than earlier. I wouldn't even be able to see a few meters away without Leviataine.

As usual, the unpleasant air wrapped around my body, and I even felt like my body was kind of heavy.

As we go through the black woods for a while, we see some light ahead of our sights.

Mr. Luca stopped once and thought for a moment before walking out toward the light.

Reaching that spot of light, trees are missing over a fairly wide area, and looking up you can clearly see more and more cloudy skies.

"Dear Luca, is this...?

"That's weird. Some of the woods are missing… there was no space like this before"

Then Leviataine touched the ground and began to squeal her nose.

"What's up, Leviataine?

"You smell like burning... this guy smells like flames. Breathe" brace ". Besides, the smelling lord is... close"

"Gram......!

In response to Leviataine's words, I summoned Gram to give him life.

Appearing, she opens her eyes and puts her hands on the sword she was carrying immediately.

"Hey... I think you're willing to help too."

"Hello, Mr. Leviataine. I just wanted to take a moment to talk to you... but you're already surrounded."

"Gram...... is that a dragon?

"Yeah, I'm pretty much there. It's slowly coming this way... from the smell, Wing Claw Dragon Species (Wyburn), Breathing Dragon Species (Andragora), Giant Arm Dragon Species (Valbeed)... When did we get along?"

Multiple types of dragons here?

No way......

"This is the tip of Altria's eyes and nose... a little dragon advance?

"It's possible. Master Viper also said the dragon tribe is moving more vigorously, because if there aren't many people here, it's a good idea to hide. I mean, all the missing adventurers..."

"Sounds like it was already too late..."

The five of us turn our backs on each other in the center of the open space.

I called Balmunk from my notebook and set her up with both hands.

The earth shakes with the gradual approaching footsteps, and you hear something winging.

They have quite a few, as Gram says.

As if to prove it, that sound, which overlapped multiple times, was heard from all directions.

"... Coming"

The moment Gram groans so, the trees of the forest dance through the universe with an ear-bearing growl.

The dragons appeared as the trees were swept away, breathing out "Brace" in unison.

But that breath, Brace, won't reach us.

The Breath of Fire "Breath" was sucked into Leviataine's hand, the Breath of Ice "Breath" was inhibited by Mr. Luca's magic, and the Breath of Thunder "Breath" was bounced by Gram.

"All flames are under your control... you've become one smart man."

"Hehe, I didn't know the day was coming when I could hunt dragons myself..."

"Temee et al... I guess you're ready!?

"Levi, let's go!

"Yes!"

The dragon in front of you is a giant-armed dragon species (Valbeed) with an unusually large arm.

The earth has been swept away with its giant arms to keep me and Levy from approaching.

"Gigga!?

But no matter how big it is, I'm powerless in front of Balmunk's blade.

The giant arm danced to the universe, dropping his neck as it was and claiming one.

As soon as that happens, the other dragons will come to me.

"Levi!

"Ha!

Levi kicked up the jaw of the winged claw dragon species (Wyburn) trying to breathe out "Brace" and prevented it.

"Storm God's Wandering Spear (GUNGNIL)!"

Gungnil was released from the right onto the imminent giant-armed dragon species (Valbeed), immediately reoriented towards the imminent respiratory dragon species (Andragora) from the front, but the thunderous breath "Brace" had already flown.

"Aigi whoa!?

What a stray bullet on your back!?

"Shit...... Ha!

"Dear Lord!

also, thunderous of course......

Shit, my whole body... paralyzed...!

"Olah!"

The neck of the breathing dragon species (Andragora) that was on the verge of chewing me off disappeared.

Or did you burn it out...? In a moment now......

Mr. Luca's magic is "burning magic".

She boasts the highest power in flame-based magic, and even her dragon, which is highly durable in flames, was burned out in an instant, apparently.

"Hey, you okay?

"Ha, yes... somehow... Levi, I'm fine, so ask for something else!

"Ha, ha!

Balmunk is...... no.

She is vulnerable to lightning. Apparently, I've lost my power now.

Gungnir went back where he put Balmunk back in his notebook and I grabbed her and tried to get up but Mr. Luca stopped me for it.

"Keep resting. I'll be done in a minute."

"No, I can still do it......!

"You can't move properly, can you? Look at that."

Regrettably...... my body did not move well yet.

The power of Excalibur is strong in undoing the shape of things, even as it recovers, but it is not suitable for undoing physical strength, magic, or these types of bodily damage.

I also got a lot of attention when I got my left arm healed...

Dragons appear one after the other even while you're thinking about it.

How many...

"For a large number of cases, of course, the situation around you needs to understand how your actions affect the other person or something. If you attack the dark clouds, you'll create a gap."

Four dragons are approaching Mr. Luca, who shelters me.

"What matters is the flow. So here's what I'll do."

That said, she jumped into the middle of four.

I guess it was unexpected for the dragons, chasing Mr. Luca with his eyes is breaking the system.

The rear-end breathing dragon species (Andragora) wiped his head off before breathing out "Brace," burning and killing the imminent giant arm dragon species (Valbeed) from left to right at the same time.

It was a wing claw dragon species (Wyburn) that was about to fly from above, but her body burned up as she approached her.

"Do you want to hug me? I can't do that."

By the time I realized it was too late, the pterygoid dragon species (Wyburn) was ashed a few meters in front of Mr. Luca.

Perhaps something like an invisible barrier had already been put up.

This is... SSS rank...
