Chapter 168 - Chapter 168 - Leaving it to the Dragon (2/2)

I see. That made sense.

The Blue Moon of Salvation wouldn’t think that the dragon would break its way through every wall.

However, the problem was that this would take a long time.

Even with the dragon’s overwhelming power, it was trying to create an entirely new path through the mountain.

‘Alright, I’ll wait. Just destroy what you can for now.’

‘Very well. But it may result in the ceiling collapsing in some places. You might want to send your slimes away…’

‘Don’t worry about them. I’m protecting them with defense magic.’

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to leave it to the dragon.

Maybe rocks would fall, but the slimes could be easily protected.

A few hours later.

‘Sorry…it seems like they got dragged in after all…’

The dragon muttered as its claws moved away the rubble in order to find the slimes that had been buried.

It seemed like it had finished its rampage for now.

‘We’re finally out!’

‘It was so tight!’

The slimes shouted as they hopped on top of the boulders.

At first, they had been able to come out by themselves every time they were covered…but they would keep getting buried again no matter how many times they got out. And so the slimes had just given up and stayed buried.

While they were perfectly safe down there…it was apparently not very comfortable.

‘I’m sorry. It may not be much, but I will help them escape as part of my apology.’

‘Okay, thank you.’

Due to the dragon’s attacks, the layout of the tunnels had changed greatly.

It was hard to even tell where the original tunnels were.

But… There was still a great big hole that led to the open sky.

It would be easy to reunite with the slimes if the dragon carried them.
