"... oh, my God..."

The sight of Astelle outside the carriage was terrible.

The first thing I can see is how many ice pillars the dragon might have thrown out, standing in various parts of the city.

And it soon became clear that the number of buildings destroyed was considerable.

What was worse than that was the people who suffered.

Those who were badly injured fell all over the place, and if I counted the slightly injured ones, I didn't think it would hurt.

The healers and thinkers are running around, but I don't think there are enough of them.

In the meantime, the carriage stopped, and you said,

"Ma'am, it's hard to go any further. I'd rather be turned back....."

I've said it modestly.

Looking outside again, it seemed that this was the limit to the way the carriage progressed with rubble and waves of people.

Originally, the carriage was headed to a relatively large treatment center in Astelle.

I was going to work there as a person who could use healing.

However, if we can't go any further...

"Okay. I'm getting off here and walking to the hospital, so I asked for a carriage."

That's how I got off the carriage.

When you get out,

Ma'am?

And three guards tilted their necks, and came down from the horse on which they were riding, and approached, and I said to them,

I'm walking from here to the hospital.

"Then use your horse!

That's what one of the guards said about the horse he was riding, but I shook my head sideways.

"It's not that far, and as soon as we find the seriously wounded, we'll go healing. From the top of the horse, it's a hassle."

"Ha...?

"Anyway, let's go."

Without explaining everything to the confused guard, I walked out.

It may be too late for some to explain it too long.

I thought you would understand if you behaved.

"Colin... colin!!! Don't die...!

On her way to the clinic, she finds a young mother holding an injured child and screaming as she shed tears.

I rush to her to see how the child is.

There is a considerable laceration in the abdomen and blood is flowing from it.

If you leave him alone, he'll die.

I thought so.

"Can I have a moment?

"... eh?

"Excuse me..."

Raise your hand toward the wound and cast healing magic before confirming your will.

It is the most basic healing technique, Sanale, and some veteran healers and priests do not use it as a low-grade one, but it is quite useful in practice.

It is easy to adjust the amount of healing and the amount of magic required is lower than other healing techniques.

It was the most effective against simple lacerations and therefore the best cure here.

In fact, the child's laceration gradually closed and eventually healed completely without even a scar.

Your consciousness hasn't returned yet, but your breathing is stable.

I'm relieved I made it.

So, finally,

"... healing...!? Are you also a healer!? Will Colin survive!?

That's what my mother asked me in a hurry.

Of course you know that the wound has disappeared, but you're still worried.

I tell her.

"It's okay. I think I bled a lot, but I don't have a problem with this condition. Then I'll let you rest slowly."

"... thank you, thank you...! Ah, but the money..."

"You don't have to worry about that. Well then, I'll go."

After that, I leave the scene with the guards and walk out to the hospital.

However, before I got to the hospital, it continued several times.

And...

- Ballin!

The roar echoes, and when you pose, the shape of the shadow falling from above changes in your vision.

The shadow is the shadow of the ice pillar that was stung, which means that the current sound is the broken sound.

There are a lot of people around.

There is a magic shield around me, and if it falls as it is, I will not die.

But the people of the city aren't.

I thought so in an instant, expanding the range of magic shields I had around me.

People scream when they notice the wreckage of ice pillars falling from above.

I suppose I imagined the fate of being crushed by it.

But that didn't actually happen, and when they closed their eyes and looked up, there was a wreckage of ice pillars that appeared to float unnaturally in the air.

"Ma'am...!

The guards realized what I was doing and said so.

I just can't afford to answer that, so I gradually shrink my magic shield and land the ice pillar wreckage safely on the ground.

The crowd, which was confused by the boulders, was surprised by the sight, and suddenly settled down, stitched up the gap between the ice pillars, and evacuated.

And when the wreckage of all the ice pillars landed, the cheers rose.
