Chapter 30 Normal feelings and overflowing power

On the third floor, the walls between the rooms collapsed, and there were many places where they were connected like one room, so the outlook was good.

It may be the effect of the collapse, but I am grateful that it is easy to go in the direction where I can hear the sound. With that in mind, we ran three levels.

Tens of seconds to rush towards the sound. I reached the front of the stairs connecting the third floor and the second floor.

“What is that creature!?”

“It’s like a dragon.”

A dragon with scales like a tree was rampaging there. It slammed its head against the walls here and there and swung its tail around.

I wondered if that was the legacy that Liza and the others were talking about, the “Dragon of Gluttony.”

At that time.

“… Chrono-san! Hi, people can fly!”

“What !?”

A figure that was blown off by the tail of a dragon flew here.

I immediately took the figure that drew a parabola and shook it. I was very familiar with its appearance.
“… Liza-san, are you okay?”

It was Liza who was blown away. She spilled a lot of blood from her forehead and nose but laughs in response to my voice.

“Ah, Chrono. There is also Sophia …. you are safe. It is good.”

“It’s not good to be worried about other people. It’s a serious injury, this…”

The bleeding was terrible because she was bounced off by that big dragon. She didn’t seem to have broken any bones, but she must have suffered severe bruising.

“No, I was a little unreasonable. I didn’t bring any combat equipment, so it’s a mess…”

“You can see it by looking at it. What happened to the other people? There must have been professors.”

“They were a little injured by the collapse. I decided that they go back to the castle first and ask for support. Until then, it feels like we can endure.”

The moment she said ‘we’, Liza turned her eyes to a nearby wall. Then, in a hollow of the wall, there was Yukino who was lying with her body on the wall. She was also bleeding from various parts of her body.

“… Did Yukino also fight?”

“Yeah. Even though I’m a Demon King, I’m not the type with strong fighting power. It’s a little difficult to hold up. I had Salamado helping me.”

“–I’m ashamed. But in that way, I was able to pull out my strength. I’m taking a break now …”

Yukino, who came in at the middle of the conversation, but his face and limbs were drooping. I also found that her legs had a cramp from the outside.

“Salamado has a control contract from that dragon, so it sucked her strength as much as it could. So, well, in this state, I had no choice but to do my best, so I was doing a lot of bleeding… It’s time that the professors are already out and calling for support, so I think I will be a little more helpful… “

As soon as Liza said that she got off my arms and turned to the dragon again.

“Luo–“

The dragon, with its tree-like skin, turned its hostile eyes toward us. No, in this case, it’s better to call it a predator’s eyes. The proof is that it exposed his fangs and licked its tong.

“After all, it seems that we can’t miss it. But you all can run away. For the time being, I’ll do my best to stall it.”

Liza said while wiping the blood on her face, but she’s already flabbergasted. However, she smiled at us.

“Because I’m the Demon King. It’s my job to protect the students and the people in the castle. It’s in front of Chrono, Sophia, and Salamado, and I’ll do my best. I’ll do my best even if I die …!”

Looking at Liza’s back as she tried to walk,

“…”

I stood beside her silently. And

“Eh … why are you holding me, Chrono?”

“Stay still. You’ll run out of blood.”

Holding Liza’s body, I headed toward Sofia.

“Sophia, can I ask to look after this person.”

“Yes, yes.”

“Why can’t I fight if I can do it yet?”

“There are too many things to worry about when you are forced to die here.”

This person also takes the lead in running the school, and I don’t know what will happen to the school if she disappears.

It is exceedingly difficult for me who has come for the purpose of studying for one year. Besides me, my classmates and future demons will be in trouble.

…… For that matter, only this person and Professor Dante know about the enslavement situation of Sophia and me. It’ll be bad to have no one to follow up if the enslavement cannot be lifted.

Both subjectively and objectively, that is why she cannot be eliminated.

I handed over Liza’s body to Sophia, saying that it was a rescue with that in mind.

“I’m sorry for asking something like this.”

“No, no, this is nothing… Chrono-san? Uh, there are a lot of chains coming out of your arm, what happened …?”

Sophia stares at my arm with a surprised look. When I was told, I noticed that a chain made of black light was spouting from my arm, which was holding Liza.

“Oh, that’s true. Why is it like this?”

Unintentionally, there were more black chains of light. I wondered what’s going on.

The answer to that question was given by Liza, who was in Sophia’s arms.

“Well, the power of domination is amplified and manifested when the person’s emotions are in disarray. It seems strange how the number of Chrono’s chains increased… Chrono is now. Are you angry? “

Liza asked me, I nodded immediately.

“Well, that’s right. I’m angry.”

“Oh, why are you angry …?”

“Well, if the person who took care of me was messed up, I would be angry …. Yes, I’m pretty angry.”

I can’t help but get angry if I make someone who has helped me like this. Because of that, the things in my mind that have kept calm for a while were now released. That’s why there are so many chains.

I turned to Sophia, even though I thought it would be awkward because I looked like this.

“Well… I’m going to cool this anger. Sophia, take care of the two fallen and protect them.”

“I was ordered, but are you going to challenge that !?”

“Oh, yes, is there something wrong?”

When I answered Sophia nodded her head in a hurry.

“There are too many problems! It’s unreasonable to challenge a dragon alone !?”

“Ah … don’t worry about that. Even in the countryside, if an acquaintance was in danger of being hit by a dragon, a young man like me was on duty as a hunting party.”

“What……?”

By the way, I never told her what I was doing in my hometown. I don’t have time to talk now, so I’ll postpone it.

Anyway, the places are different in the country and the dungeon, but the things I do are the same.

“I used to do it in the countryside. I’m used to dragon hunting.”

“But the beast…?”

That’s it. Right now, what’s in front of me is just a beast. With that in mind, there is only one thing left to do.

…… This is also what I always did in the countryside. I touched the horn on my head.

It was the only external feature of the devils, and it was also storage of power,

“I have to use this for this dragon opponent.”
When I clenched it, it shattered like a sugar sculpture.

It is a characteristic that is common to demons, but the power accumulated in the body can be exerted at will. It doesn’t change even if it’s a devil.

The power stored in the horns spews out like black smoke and clings to my body.

“Now, let me get rid of it, Glutton Lizard (Dragon of Gluttony). The power of a normal devil, eat it to your heart’s content…!”

And I started moving towards the dragon. As usual, I was doing the same in my hometown.
