Chapter 445

445 – Final Preparations

…I will protect the city of Alban from the legendary class ruin. To do that, my current MP and HP is nowhere near enough. My body was already at the limit from the successive battles with the shoggoth ooze Rogueheil, and the chaos ooze Demon Lord. On top of that, I even had a short battle with Lilixira. I’m struggling to even move my body at the moment, there’s no way I could use my skills properly

I glare at the two subordinates of Lilixira, Alphiss and Balear, who have fallen to their knees. Noticing my gaze, their faces turn pale. They must think they’re about to die.

I check their statuses. Alphiss has [Mana Release] and [Rest], while Balear has [Rest].

『…You two, I’m going to stop that monster. Heal me. Don’t hold back. I can see your amount of magic power.』

“I…I won’t believe the lies of a monster! You have no reason to stop that monster!”

Balear points his hand at me. He has the [Ice Sphere] magic skill. It seems he plans on attacking me with a ball of ice. Rather than giving aid to a monster, he’d rather kill himself by provoking me.

『You’re saying that after you guys tricked me with your lies?』

“U…guh…”

Balear grinds his teeth and glares at me.

『Don’t get full of yourselves, I’m not doing this for your sakes. It’s for my allies who remain in the castle, and for the citizens of the capital that you’ve wrapped up in this with your scheming. I’m not going to do a cowardly betrayal like you guys. In the first place, if I was just going to run, I wouldn’t go out of my way to negotiate with unsympathetic scumbags like you.』

“Wh-what…! How dare a monster like you direct such abusive language to Lilixira-sama…! No matter what you say, we won’t aid you! Abominable evil dragon! If you’re going to kill me, then kill me!”

Balear’s speech is firm, but I see fear in his eyes and a tremble in his shoulders.

Next to him, Alphiss appears torn, an anguished expression on her face as she looks at the huge hole in the ground. She closes her eyes, shakes her head, then looks at Balear.

“…Balear, if that monster continues to rampage, the royal capital will be destroyed. That cannot be allowed to happen. We…have no choice but to take a bet.”

“Wh-what!? Alphis-dono, where is your pride as a holy knight!? You plan to rely on a monster we tried to kill!? Didn’t Lilixira-sama say!? That, no matter what happens, we’re not to support Irushia!”

“Then Balear, do you want to see this land destroyed!?”

“I’m saying there’s no way we can trust a monster! Alphis-dono, do you seriously believe that stopping it would be possible!?”

“That is…”

After shouting at Alphiss, Balear directs his hostility to me.

“Aah, that’s right, evil double headed dragon! As you said, we betrayed you first! There’s no way we could possibly trust you! There’s not a single reason that you have to risk your life against that monster! If I were in your place, I am certain I would do no such thing!”

“GuuOOOOOOOOh!”

I [Roar].

『This is no time to be saying such trivial things! Can’t you hear it!? The sound of destruction coming from the city!』

Just as I say that, the sound of another [Ruin] exploding in the city reaches us. Looking up, I see the aftermath of iridescent light spreading out.

『See! While you’re complaining, countless people just died! In this situation, can you honestly say I don’t have a reason to fight!? With all the dirty work you’ve been doing, your sense of morality has been dulled! No matter how you think about it, this is no time for standing around!』

Alphiss and Balear look to the city as they hear the sound of the explosion, but upon hearing my [Telepathy], they turn back to me, a dazed look on their faces. They exchange a glance, then nod slightly.

“I-I understand. I’ll give you all my magic power through [Magic Release]. Though I don’t have much left…”

Alphiss says, clearly uncomfortable. Balear says nothing, but seemingly accepting, he stands up and hangs his head down.

“…Are you going to defeat that thing?”

One of the injured adventurers calls out to me. It’s the archer who shot me. He was clutching the dead body of his female acquaintance until a moment ago, sobbing madly, but it seems he has responded to my [Telepathy]. He drags his bloody body towards me.

“I can… I can use [Rest] too, so… I know I’m in no place to make a request. But please, please, avenge Tina! Don’t let there be any more casualties!”

I silently nod my head. Balear’s [Rest] alone wouldn’t do much to fill the massive ouroboros’s HP pool. The more people to heal me, the better. Of course, it’ll still be far from full, but there’s no helping that.

After a moment’s hesitation, the other watching adventurers raise their hands.

“I-I can use it too…” “I… I have [Quick].”

“Th-then, I’ll give you [Power]!”

One after the other, the adventurers approach me… I’m glad I didn’t abandon them. For a moment, I feel a strong relief over my choice.

I receive the healing and support magic from Alphiss and the adventurers. The wounds over my body knit closed. My body feels a little lighter from the effect of the support magic.

Great, this is a huge improvement… Although, of course, it’s still far from enough to properly compete with the ruin. The support magic is little more than a morale boost. The effects will soon wear off anyway. Even so, I have to do this.

I look at Aro as she stands a short distance away. She has watched over me throughout the entire sequence of events.

『…Aro, sorry. I’m counting on you for nightmare and the others.』

She nods, a lonely expression on her face.

“…I thought Dragon-god-sama might do this. I knew that you were a kind-hearted dragon. You didn’t abandon the village father was in, after all. I’ll wait with treant-san, so please return for certain… I’ll keep waiting.”

I glare up at the ruin, watching it as it looks out over the city. It’s not paying any attention to me.

Sorry… Aro, this time, I might not be able to keep that promise. After seeing Aro leave from view, I kick off the ground and fly up.
