“Despite the fact that that man was small, he had robust ambitions. He was considerably useful, however someway he misunderstood one thing and determined to steal the center and grow to be the grasp of the dragon. That’s why I fed him, who doesn’t know what he’s doing, to it as meals. He should really feel honoured to be part of the good dragon he coveted so badly.”

Fargerson-kyou’s pointless greed price him his life. He’s failed with the Second Prince, so he ought to have stayed quiet.

However the place on earth did he get these eggs from? As I recall, Insania Metus was burned up in a cauldron of fireside.

“……Are you curious the place the dragon got here from?”

“Yeah, I’m very curious.”

“Then let me inform you. The Calamity Dragon was burnt in a cauldron of fireside, however its coronary heart remained unburnt.”

“Haa? The guts?”

What sort of coronary heart does it have that gained’t burn even in a cauldron of fireside? That’s outrageous.

“The Calamity Dragon can create an outbreak of magical beasts even with a single scale. The king of any nation could be a idiot to burn away such a strong power that may dominate a continent. However our nation is totally different. The guts of the dragon has been ready underground in our citadel for 150 years, ready to be resurrected.”

“’I see. Identical to this……”

Now we all know why Sternkurst’s dungeon was full of magical essence. Only one a part of the physique can emit quite a lot of magical essence, but when there’s the center, it’s no marvel the dungeon grew to become a pool of magical essence.

“With the intention to revive the Calamity Dragon, I summoned magical beasts and generally gave them residing blood, but it surely by no means obtained to the purpose the place its coronary heart began to maneuver. Nonetheless, as quickly as your brother by accident touched the center, the dragon out of the blue started to point out indicators of resurrection. Magical energy was wanted to revive the Calamity Dragon. I believed he wouldn’t be a lot of a pawn, however he got here in helpful in an surprising manner.”

“You should have gone loopy from absorbing the magical essence of the Calamity Dragon, proper? In any other case, there’s no manner you might have provide you with one thing so loopy as to resurrect Insania Metus.”

“You! That’s disrespectful!”

The recent-tempered escort knight put his hand on the hilt of his sword, however Percival pulled out his sword a second earlier and stepped in entrance of me.

The escort knight distorts his face in frustration. Hmm. There’s nothing good about it.

I’ll always remember the individuals who shed tears when their family members have been killed by magical beasts. That’s why I’ve to crush their silly ambitions as soon as and for all,

However, Veritas. They know you’re not a lot of a magician. Regardless of how exhausting he tries to promote himself, the Crown Prince thinks of Veritas as nothing greater than a dragon feeder.

I assume Veritas was additionally vaguely conscious of this. So, so as to stay as a magician with the Crown Prince, he stored feeding magical energy to the dragon even when he ran out of magical energy.

“The dragon, which has gained magical energy and regained its kind, absorbs the magical essence on this land, and the time of resurrection is lastly right here. The outbreak of magical beasts that’s occurring in varied locations is an indication of the return of the Black Flame Dragon of Calamity. You guys can hear the heartbeat of this factor too, can’t you?”

It’s absorbing up magical essence?

For a second, the Forest of Magical Beasts flashed by my thoughts. No, no manner. ……

It’s a good way from this temple to the Forest of Magical Beasts. But when this dragon is sucking up magical essence, it will clarify why the world round right here and the Forest of Magical Beasts is quiet.

“……Sapphiras, it’s not a good suggestion to depart this factor on the surface1like the floor of the earth.”

“Yeah, however, it might be too late.”

The black mass wriggled eerily whereas emitting an eerie low growl, and a big crack appeared on the floor. An indescribable ominous presence leaked out, and blood-red eyes peered out from the hole.

“Foosh!”

“No, Cait Sith. That’s not one thing you’ll be able to deal with.”

Cait Sith, who was about to leap out with a threatening voice, was returned to the phantom world. Even for Cait Sith, he can’t be its opponent.

“Great……fantastic……! Come on! My servant, Insania Metus! Let your energy be identified all through the continent……!”

“Oi! Fool! Cease!”

The dragon’s pink eyes moved round and turned towards the Crown Prince, who was shouting along with his arms outstretched. Simply after I thought its large mouth opened, it devoured the magician who was standing subsequent to the Crown Prince. On the similar time, the Crown Prince’s proper arm was gone from his shoulder as he screamed. With out even chewing, Insania Metus swallows the magician and the Crown Prince’s arms.

……Silly. Insania Metus would by no means comply with a person. That dragon burns and devours every little thing on earth whereas spitting out black flames. That’s all.

Having eaten the magician, it will need to have absorbed the ultimate magical energy wanted for hatching. The massive dragon, with its slimy black scales shining, was about to disclose itself.

The altar, unable to resist the dragon’s sheer measurement, begins to break down with a tremor.

“Percival! We will’t keep right here any longer, let’s get out!”

As we tried to flee exterior by transferring, Percival’s gaze glanced in direction of the Crown Prince.

Possibly we are able to simply throw that factor away and go? That’s what I believed, however I’m not so merciless as to desert him whereas he’s nonetheless alive. I picked up the Crown Prince who had misplaced his arm and was groaning, and the guards who gave the impression to be utterly ineffective and transferred to the surface of the ruins.

At about the identical time, an enormous black dragon emerges from underground, spewing up earth and particles.

The black dragon I appeared up at appeared precisely just like the one I knew. I by no means thought I’d need to face this man once more. There’s something deeply shifting about it.

Insania Metus utterly appeared on the bottom, mowed down the encompassing bushes with its lengthy tail, and roared into the night time sky.

“Ugh……”

I couldn’t stand the loud voice and lined his ears.

The eerie voice echoed by the world and startled birds took off in unison.

“……For now, let’s go inform Vanderwall of the dragon’s resurrection. Now that it’s revived, I don’t know what is going to occur. Orthus, return for now.”

After I checked out Orthros whereas calling out to him, I noticed that the caterpillar Veritas had been licked by two altering heads, turning it right into a pulp.

“St-stop it……! Shit! Cease screwing round!”

I don’t know what’s occurring, however Orthus actually likes Veritas. I used to be really pondering of leaving him right here, however I had no different alternative, so I made a decision to take him with me.

I’ve quite a lot of questions I wish to ask him. For now, let’s have Vanderwall care for it.

After we return to Vanderwall, we report back to Vanderwall-kyou concerning the resurrection of Insania Metus.

The Dragon of Calamity, which was presupposed to have disappeared from the earth 150 years in the past, has reappeared, and as anticipated, the fierce warriors of the frontier have been certainly disturbed.

“We don’t know what is going to occur, so simply in case, please evacuate the territory. Specifically, the villages close to the Forest of Magical Beasts could have to take sure measures……but it surely’s only a precaution.”

Insania Metus has solely simply come again to life. If we defeat it earlier than it spits out black flames, it gained’t have a lot of an influence on the abyss.

“Sapphiras……it may possibly’t be,”

“Yeah, I’m going to return and take him out, so Percival will keep right here simply in case.”

“No!”

“!”

Stunned by Percival’s loud voice, my shoulders instinctively jerked.

……Isn’t this the primary time Percival has yelled at my face? Additionally, he has a scary face that I hardly ever see, which is sort of refreshing.

“Even for Sapphiras, it’s inconceivable to defeat Insania Metus! I’ll by no means allow you to go!”

“Percival is true, Sapphy. Our opponent is a dragon that might destroy the continent. It’s totally different from coping with a magical beast.”

The Belisario household surrounds me. It’s not simply Madam Adeline. I can see that Vanderwall-kyou and his brothers are sincerely frightened about me. It’s a bit bit embarrassing, however I’m high quality. Final time it was a bit difficult, however this time I’ve a plan.

In addition to, I’ve the tricorn wand! With this, I’ve the facility of 100 folks.

“We will’t simply depart Insania Metus as it’s. He burns every little thing with its black flames and devours all residing issues. If we depart it alone, the continent will grow to be a land of dying.”

“……I do know, however!”

“’Hear, Percival. Possibly there isn’t any one else on this continent who can slay that dragon however me.”

I believe Percival is conscious of this. No peculiar magician or swordsman can defeat that. That being mentioned, I assume he doesn’t suppose I can defeat it alone.

“Keep in mind. The magician who as soon as defeated Insania Metus.”

“Fortis Sinistra…….”

“Sure, he was a magician who might manipulate every kind of magic with out chanting. And I’m a chantless magician too. This will solely imply that Fortina, the goddess of destiny, is telling me to defeat the Calamity Dragon. You don’t suppose so, do you?”

Within the first place, I’m the one who defeated it. That is the second time, so I’ll do higher than earlier than.

“……Even so, why is it Sapphiras?”

Percival’s eyebrows have been deeply furrowed and he had a pained expression on his face.

“Percival, I need you to consider in me. I’ll undoubtedly defeat that man and are available again.”

I’ve nothing however confidence in my capability to defeat it. In addition to, it will be insufferable if the continent we might discover sooner or later was scorched to the bottom.

With these ideas in thoughts, I appeared into his summer time sky-like eyes, and Percival closed his eyes and let loose a deep sigh.

“……Sapphiras, this.”

Percival, who took my hand, took one thing out of the concealment of his jacket and put it on my left ring finger. It mirrored a uninteresting mild on my ring finger and it was the ring of friendship, which we had retrieved from Veritas.

“I need you to vow me that you’ll come again to me.”

“In fact!”

“……Don’t do something reckless.”

“Roger!”

“Sapphiras…….I really like you.”

“Heh?”

I discovered myself in Percival’s arms.

melon: Aww

Btw, creator apologises for being late as she(?) needed to go away for enterprise journey.
