110 – Under the New World Tree
Lfia Raimi Marcos.
She was currently being protected at an inn prepared in Abloum.
No, actually, it would be closer to surveillance rather than protection.
Rosa, who usually listens to her requests, is still in bed due to a fractured ankle.
Only the stubborn Rush remained, and of course his request to see the battlefield was immediately rejected.
“What are you thinking?! Your Highness, there is no way I would send you to such a dangerous place?!”
Well, Rush has also been chased by a dragon, and she knows how dangerous it is, so it is natural for her to react like that.
But Princess Lefia couldn’t bear it.
A fight between strong and courageous warriors and dragons.
Isn’t this a scene that only appears in myths or old stories?
Missing something like that would have been an absolute waste for Lefia.
So Le Pia decided to sneak out.
But there were more people who stopped her.
“Where are you going, Your Highness Lefia?”
If she somehow escaped Rush, the Assassin Maid appeared from somewhere and stopped her.
The battle was about to begin, but Le Pia was upset when she realized that her surveillance network surrounding herself was very strong.
However, an opportunity has come.
Perhaps it was an aftereffect of the battle, damage began to occur little by little in the village.
As a result, the maid had to leave the place to check on the safety of the kingdom’s noble girl, Riel Ignis.
Of course, the maid wasn’t stupid either, so before she went to check, she asked Rush to look straight at Le Pia.
The problem is that Le Pia was a more reckless personality than he thought.
“Big?!”
“I’m sorry, Rush.”
He probably never dreamed that the person he was protecting would commit backstabbing.
After putting Rush, who had fainted, on the bed, Lufia left the inn.
Le Pia walked quickly, fearing that the maid might come back and chase after her.
To see the battle.
To see that mythical battle.
Lfia escaped from Ablum and arrived at the place where the battle with the dragon was taking place.
But what she saw was hell.
Wounded soldiers groaning here and there.
Soldiers wearing dented armor asking for help.
A corpse that has already lost its life and is rolling around with a terrible appearance.
He had excellent magic skills and was protected by those around him.
And it was a very stimulating sight for Princess Lefia, who had only ever heard of the war and its battlefields through books.
Wow!
Another soldier was unable to avoid the flying rock and fell to the ground, his blood splattered.
At that terrible sight, Le Pia had no choice but to suppress her screams.
And in front of us, the sight of warriors covered in blood confronting a dragon covered in blood.
‘Let’s go back… If we stay like this, it will only be a distraction.’
Lefia realized.
They didn’t leave the village just for Lefia’s safety.
Even if there is a Lufia who does not know the battlefield or combat, it will only be a hindrance.
Of course there was no way to take Lefia into battle, as she wasn’t much help and would only be a problem if she got seriously injured.
It was that time.
A huge gust of wind blew, and dust covered Lefia.
Before Lefia could control it, dust got into her eyes.
“Kyaaa?!”
Lefia screams in exhilarating pain without realizing it.
“What…What is it? My eyes are stinging…?”
Lufia created water using magic to somehow resolve the dust that got into her eyes.
‘Wash it away with this…And get out quickly…’
The dust was washed away, and my vision gradually returned.
Lufia is rubbing her eyes and trying to secure her vision.
And what caught Lefia’s eyes, as her field of vision was secured, was the appearance of a dragon with its mouth wide open in this direction.
“Huh…Uhuh…!”
It was close.
I ran desperately and was able to avoid the breath by pushing Princess Lufia and falling down with her.
The heat I felt from my back as I fell suggested that I had narrowly avoided it.
I jumped up and tried to understand the situation.
Below, Princess Lufia is crushed by my body and blinks, unable to grasp the situation.
In the background, there is a raiding party that attacks the dragon, which is sluggish due to the recoil from the breath shot.
In front, trees are shattered and burning due to the influence of the breath, and wizards are putting out the fire to prevent it from spreading.
Finished understanding of the situation.
The fight is not over yet, but the situation we feared did not happen.
A sudden rush of relief.
But at the same time as relief, I felt annoyed and angry.
“Hey! Are you crazy?!”
“Yes…Eh?”
I was pouring out my anger and frustration at the culprit.
“I told you to stay still, but why did you come and do this sh*t?!”
“Damn…Damn…?”
“Holy sh*t. Don’t you know that if you do anything, the situation will get bigger and bigger? Do you understand your position?!”
“That…That…”
After pouring out all my anger and swearing, I became more and more calm and took a deep breath.
Now is not the time.
The dragon is very tired, but it is still alive and well, and the raiding party is also getting tired.
It was not the time to worry about this woman.
“Ugh…Sorry…Sorry…Sorry…”
Princess Lefia sheds tears while saying that.
And from behind, I saw Rush and Phyllis, the escort drivers, running.
It seemed like he realized that the princess had disappeared and somehow chased after her.
Then you can leave this to me.
“Damn it, get to a safe place quickly!!”
After saying that, I turned around and ran towards the dragon.
I could hear voices saying something behind me, but I couldn’t hear them clearly due to the dragon’s roar.
Successful in subduing the dragon, the guardian dragon Blig.
As expected, the brass was close to its last struggle, and the dragon finally collapsed due to the attacks pouring down on it again.
The dragon did not die due to its enormous vitality, but collapsed from exhaustion.
The soldiers brought chains and tied up the dragon’s entire body.
Of course, when the dragon fully recovers, it will be able to break those chains and run away, but it is enough to tie down the movements of the tired dragon.
“Kyou!!”
Not long after the battle, Riel came running with Sir in his arms.
I was a little uneasy because the village had suffered great damage in the aftermath of the battle, but seeing it was intact gave me a sense of relief.
“Riel, you’re safe.”
“That’s what I have to say!”
Well, it’s hard to say that I’m in good shape right now.
Fortunately, she was fine with no major injuries or breaks, but she suffered a lot of abrasions.
I’ve lost a lot of blood from my wounds, and honestly, I’m on the verge of collapsing from the fatigue of the battle.
“Uh…Huh?”
Has the tension of the battle been completely relieved belatedly?
When I sat down, my legs feeling weak, Riel caught me.
It must be heavy because she’s wearing armor, but Riel supports me with one of her shoulders.
“Abba!!”
Sirga, who was in Riel’s arms, saw me and stretched out his hand.
Yes, you are worried.

As I was thinking such heartwarming thoughts, Sir pulled my blood-covered hair.
…Okay, whatever you are, that’s right.
If you get older and lose hair later, it’s because of you.
“Are you okay?”
I raised my head at the voice of concern and saw Liliana wearing a white robe looking at me.
Probably, he arrived with Riel while waiting for the guardian dragon purification operation.
“Okay. I’m fine…More than that, can you do it?”
Hearing my words, Liliana smiled as if relieved, and turned her eyes towards the subdued dragon.
Liliana looked at the dragon for a long time.
She took out her wand that had been given to her by Cheini, the Tower Lord, and closed her eyes.
And soon she opened her eyes and said:
“Yes. I can do it.”
Liliana turned her gaze and looked at Riel.
Riel nodded her head and turned to Liliana while holding Sir in her arms.
“Then, I’ll ask you to do the rest.”
The two people nodded at my words.
“Aww!!”
I don’t know if he understood, but Sir also shouted energetically.
The guardian dragon purification work began immediately.
The task of channeling magical energy into a staff and forming a magical force around the dragon.
When drawing a line, not even an inch of error could be tolerated.
But Liliana was performing the task very quickly and accurately.
Liliana said with her wry smile to the admiring Riel.
“Because it’s something I always do… It’s everything seniors have to do.”
…How much has he been treated like this?
Anyway, the jinn made up of complex and elaborate magic power was completed, and Liliana stood in front of the jinn.
Clutching her staff tightly in her hand, she turned her gaze towards Riel.
“Then, bring Miss Sir here.”
Riel held Sir in her arms and went to Liliana’s side.
“Woo?”
Sir was looking around with an expression of confusion.
Well, how can I know that a child is complicated?
“Grrr…”
At that time, Bligh, who had been subdued, let out a small groan.
Perhaps he heard that? Sir turned his gaze to Bligh.
“Aww?”
“Okay…”
Riel, holding Sir in her arms, opened her mouth.
“Sir, can you lend me your strength?”
“Huh?”
“I think the only thing that can save that kid from his pain is Sir.”
“Ugh?”
Did you understand?
I’m not sure, but Cyr turned his head towards Bligh again.
For a while, Sir exchanged glances with Bligh, who had become quiet after being subdued.
“uuu…uuu…
It was that time.
Sirga began to glow faintly.
I remember.
It is the same light that Syr gave off when he was still a seed.
It feels a little brighter and warmer than the light at that time.
In a situation where everyone there was paying attention to Sir.
“Wow!!”
Sir let out a cheering sound, and light soared up.
Liliana saw this and quickly grabbed her staff and closed her eyes…
…And then, the light slowly faded away.
“……”
“Well done, Sir.”
In Riel’s arms, Cyr was asleep with her eyes closed and wheezing.
Liliana stood there with a slightly tired expression.
“Look over there!”
“Dragon!!”
The dragon’s white body turned into black dust and was slowly dispersing.
From the tip, the dragon’s body disappears into the sky like black dust.
The dragon’s body completely disappeared, and Liliana knelt down and picked up something from where the dragon had been.
It was a white and large egg.
“Guardian dragon of the North, may you be freed from your body eroded by demon energy and live a peaceful life under the new world tree.”
Liliana said that while looking at her egg.
This is how the Guardian Dragon incident came to an end.
