TEASER CHAPTER 5 PART 28
"Kishaaaaa!"
The Metal Dragon
roared and flew into the sky.
It soared high and
flew towards the moon shining in the sky, which human hands could never reach.
It turned around and changed its direction. This time, while receiving the
moonlight on its back, it suddenly descended towards Nozomu in a straight line.
"Ko~aaa..."
A white light appeared
within the mouth of the descending Metal Dragon. At the moment the light inside
its mouth shone even further, a huge light bullet shot from the Metal Dragon's
mouth towards Nozomu and the others on the ground.
The huge bullet of
light, which approached in the blink of an eye, was like a shooting star
falling towards them.
"Dangerous!!"
"Tch!"
"E~~i!"
Tima, Feo, and
Anri-sensei came forward and deployed a triple magic barrier. After one beat, a
huge light bullet landed on the barrier.
"Gu~uu ..."
"Aaah!"
"Kyaa!"
A huge light bullet
exploded with a roaring sound and a flash of light.
The three who had put
up the barrier, along with Mars and Mimuru who were in the vanguard were blown
away by the blast. The magic barrier that was deployed shattered with the sound
of glass breaking.
In the sky, the Metal
Dragon that was still descending had prepared another attack to launch. The
same light as before appeared and shot from its mouth.
"Another one is
coming!"
Along with Mars' shout,
another huge light bullet was fired. The light of destruction was directed at
Nozomu and the others again.
"This is bad...
Gah!"
Nozomu tried to get up
quickly, but he groaned as the intense pain ran throughout his body, and by the
time he realized it, he had already missed the chance to dodge it.
The huge light bullet
was approaching at high speed. Nozomu couldn't dodge in time. For Nozomu, who
originally couldn't use magic and couldn't use katana techniques due to
depletion of Qi, it was impossible to defend against such a Metal Dragon's
attack.
Tima also couldn't
deploy the magic barrier in time. Irisdina and Shīna, who were in front of
Nozomu, put strength into their arms and tried to push Nozomu away from the
path of the light bullet so he could escape, but their arms also didn't have
any spare strength left to do that.
"Kuh...!!"
Nozomu tried to
forcefully move his body that didn't want to get out of the path of the light
bullet.
The Undead Dragon
revived without warning. Its body was metalized, and the breath it exhaled was
significantly altered, such as becoming a mass of light instead of the
scorching breath of fire.
(I don't know what
happened, but nonetheless, everyone is...)
Driven by such
thoughts, Nozomu desperately tried to move his body.
However, faster than
Nozomu, Irisdina and Shīna jumped in front of him as if they were protecting
Nozomu.
"Shīna-kun!"
"I know!"
Shīna moved faster
than Irisdina called her name. She quickly pulled an arrow out of its quiver,
nocked it to her bow, and at the same time sent her magical power into the
arrow.
Irisdina also
intensified her magic power and instantly cast a technique with immediate
deployment. She created a spear that was wrapped in darkness and held it in her
hand.
