Black Iron Magician Chapter 384

While the battle is unfolding, Satella, in dragon form, is flying in the sky above them with Weerel on her back. A fierce battle is unfolding, and the aftermath of the breath reaches them. However, due to the strong barriers created by water and wind, the two seem to be comfortable.

「How should I put it…. It's a one-sided development, huh…」

「They are trying to challenge my husband after all~. If they can't at least do this much, they will have a hard time later.」

「What is waiting for them after this…?」

For Weerel, the appearance of Haruna and the others, who were able to easily break through the obstacles that she couldn't clear in the past, seems much more reliable than before. She even has a faint hope that they might be able to pass the trial without any problems. However, contrary to her, Satella is half hopeful and half anxious. Weerel reconfirmed that challenging this trial when she was young was reckless, and she was convinced that it was a dark history. Thus, Weerel secretly decided to seal it deep in her heart.

「Look forward to it when they reach the eighth island ♪」

「I-I see…?」

「Ufufu. Still, even my children are doing their best, you know? They understand the difference in strength, and they are doing everything they can to settle it on the sea, where the challengers would be defenseless. It's a bold move to put all of their forces on the beach and in the ocean~」

「Moreover, all the dragons are at least level 6…. Land, sky, and sea…. It's like powerful turrets are lined up everywhere…. I would cry if it were me….」

「Ara, I'm happy even if it's flattery. Thank you ♪」

「It's not flattery…. I really mean it…」

Weerel is well aware of the abnormality of standing in that place unharmed. She understands that even if Adelheit as a country confronted them without Nell, they wouldn't be able to win.

「But… if we team up with Therese-san… we might have a better chance, I guess…?」

「Therese-san? Who is that?」

「Ah, no… it's nothing…. More importantly, it seems that there's movement on the seventh island….」

「Let's see~… ah, you're right. It seems that Yubchan is finally moving. I wonder if she's going to shoot Vesta Breath?」

「Vesta Breath…? Is that different from ordinary dragon's breath…?」

「You see, Vesta Breath is a deadly breath that can be said Yuba's trump card. It's an area extermination breath, targeting only living creatures. Maybe it's easier to understand if I say it's an immediate disease spread? If she increases the range, it can even cover the sea of this area. And if you inhale it even once―― It's so terrible that Mom can't say it more than this!」

「In short, it's a kind of biological weapon…. I remember seeing the literature that says that the Elderado Empire once used such a poison…」

「Maa! Wee-chan is so knowledgeable. But, you see, you can't lump that imperfect thing with Yubchan's breath together. After all, that Vesta Breath is conspicuous because of its pink color, but it can be sent into enemy territory odorless and silently!」

「Satellsan, Satellsan…. Please look at that enemy territory….」

「Eh?」

To control Satella who suddenly began to brag about her daughter, Weerel pointed to the sea. The Hund Ship, which Deris and the others are riding, and the pink-colored breath released by Yuba are about to collide.

「Chinatsu-san cast a magic just now… and a cube-shaped magical space was created… covering Hund-sama's huge body entirely…. It somehow feels very clean…」

「Ara, you're right. It feels so clean. Also, did Yuba's pink-colored breath disappear as soon as it entered that space?」

「Yes, it did…. Chinatsu-san said 『Op Room』…. That light magic… I've read about it in a book…」

「W-What kind of magic is that, Wee-chan!?」

The magic that Chinatsu used was 『Op Room』, a level 50 Holy Magic that creates a magical space around the user. This magic has the effect of thoroughly eliminating abnormalities from anything that enters this space. Not only living things, but poisoned water, the magic poison that Haruna is good at, and even polluted air can be purified. In other words, you can drink the water and the air is delicious. In this space, everything is healthy and harmless, regardless of friend or foe. For those who specialize in that kind of attack, it can be said that this magic is a natural enemy.

「Ara ara…. Yubchan's little remaining chance to win is now completely gone. I'm amazed.」

「It's the first time I've actually seen it…. Perhaps, she hasn't fully revealed her hand yet…. She has completely surpassed me in magic….」

「Ah, you're shocked by that? Don't worry, you can catch up if you work hard enough, Wee-chan!」

The battle situation is changing from moment to moment while Satella encourages the dispirited Weerel. Hund increased his speed and charged head-on toward Yuba's breath. The dragons are speechless and stunned at the sight that they forget to shoot their breaths. The distance to the seventh island was shrinking rapidly, and finally, Haruna and the others were thrown ashore by Hund.

「As expected of Hund-kun, he threw us at a good place. Now, let's move on to cleaning the beach.」

「You have to clean it in five minutes. The main event of the trial is waiting after this, so you have to warm up properly.」

「I will deal with the people in the sea, so I will leave the beach and the sky to you.」

「「「Okay!」」」

Hund dived into the sea to defeat the remnants, while Haruna and Chinatsu scattered on the beach to deal with the guardians who had just been bombarding them with their breaths. As for Touko, she seems to be in charge of the sky. She kicks the air and soars into the sky, repeatedly leaping onto her prey and shooting them down. Each battle was disastrous, and the result was as expected.

「Satellsan, Satellsan…. Look at the seventh island…」

「Eh?」

Weerel, who unexpectedly had recovered quickly, pointed at the island. Haruna and Chinatsu, who had conquered the beach in the blink of an eye, were about to clash with Yuba, the general of the dragons.

「Ah, you can't, Yubchan! Just because your breath doesn't work, you shouldn't fight them head-on!」

「Ahh… she's pretty shaken…. Harunsan and Chinatsu-san are breathtaking duo…. So…」

「「This is hopeless…」」

Weerel and Satella, who saw the decisive battle on the beach and the end of the battle, overlapped their voices. Thus, the entire force of the seventh island was incapacitated as soon as they landed.
