31-31 Battle of Wang City (1/2)

We abandoned the carriage, and the three of us mounted our horses and hurried to the Royal City.

We were a few minutes behind Dr. Noor.

By the time we were about to enter the city, debris was flying around the center of the royal city, and the towering royal castle had crumbled into fragments.

The fumes rising all around the area - right now, the teacher is fighting against the [evil dragon of disaster] on the other side.

You can't see him directly, but it's a tremendous sight.

Every time the demon dragon makes a move, an earthquake occurs, the buildings in the eastern section of the royal capital are destroyed in the blink of an eye, the houses in front of us fall down, and the area is turned into a clearing one after another.

Above all, from time to time, the dragon would release a tremendously powerful magic ray - that was the legendary ”Breath” of the demon dragon - the ”Light of Doom”.

A few of them fell on the distant plains and made holes in the ground.

There is a battle going on over there that could change the surrounding terrain.

It's hard to believe that this is a battle between man and dragon.

But Professor Noor is indeed fighting that demon dragon.

The dragon's relentless attacks are proof of that.

He's like a real hero out of a heroic tale...

Something's coming...!

At the sound of Inez's voice, I turned around, and for a moment my body froze.

There they were... the three Goblin Emperors.

The three giants were running towards us in a swarm.

”...?

One of them scooped up debris from the ground with its huge hands and threw it at us one after another.

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

You'll be able to't get rid of it.

You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.

But there is no way to prevent it - the horse is struck by debris and its head is crushed.

We lost our horses and were thrown to the ground.

”Stay close to me, please.

Inez creates the Shield of Light in front of us again.

The Goblin Emperors approached us in an instant and struck us all at once, but the Shield of Light blocked them.

”Thank you for your help, Inez.

But if you don't...

Inez's voice is strained.

I know.

We're surrounded now.

There's nowhere to run.

There's no way out.

The Goblin Emperor is a monster, but even Dr. Noll had a hard time with it.

If we, the helpless ones, were to be surrounded...

Surrounded by a monster of such stature that I could barely move, my legs cowered in fear.

But I can't just run away here.

There is no escape.

What would you do in a situation like this?

If you were here... what would you say?

”Don't be afraid, he's just a goblin...

I'm going to try and say that.

As soon as I said it, the trembling in my legs mysteriously subsided.

That's right.

What are you fighting now, doctor?

He's fighting to the death against that legendary [evil dragon of disaster].

If I'm going to become a disciple of someone like that... and I'm cowed by a mere goblin...

I'm sure my teacher will be disgusted with me again.

Let's deal with them calmly... first, we'll stop them one by one.

Yes, sir.

I'm going to stitch them to the ground with ice... [Icicle Dance]
