After Kalya and the girls defeated the metal dragons, Lilith and her group also managed to kill the two fortress dragons. Even though they looked exhausted, none of them was seriously injured.
"I didn't think we would be able to defeat two demigod-powered dragons!" Clara said excitedly.
"Yeah, it's all thanks to Lilith. Without her, we would be overwhelmed by that dragon and fall into a dangerous situation." Kyouka added.
"We wouldn't have been able to defeat those two dragons so quickly if it weren't for Lilith's help!" Princess Iris agreed with the words of the two girls and shared the same feelings with them after successfully defeating the two dragons.
"You three played an important role in defeating the dragons. I didn't do much in this battle. After all, one of the dragons is injured, making it easy for us to defeat the monster." Lilith smiled wryly in response to their words.
What Lilith had said was the truth. When the battle between her group against the two fortress dragons began, she didn't do much and just kept an eye on the situation around them. Lilith only attacked when it was needed. So she could confidently say that the battle was won with just the three of them.
Lilith was amazed by the cooperation they showed. The three girls seemed to understand what each other was thinking. Even though they were only Magic Kings, their combined attacks closed the huge gap in strength between them and the two fortress dragons.
"Okay. In that case, the four of us are the ones who have defeated the two dragons. However, I know that this might not be something to be proud of for you, Lilith. But for us, this is our first step to show that we are not weak girls who can only be protected." Clara smiled proudly and looked at Princess Iris and Kyouka. The two girls nodded at Clara's words.
"I understand about it. But I'm not as strong as you think. Instead of thinking about it, we'd better catch up with Kalya and join them because I felt the power of a true god suddenly appear from where Kalya and the others were fighting." Lilith smiled bitterly and shook her head. But then her face turned serious, and she looked at where Kalya and her group were fighting against the metal dragon.
As Lilith watched Clara and the others fight against the two fortress dragons, she felt the power of a true god suddenly appear on the battlefield. She couldn't help but feel anxious because the power she felt was coming from Kalya's direction.
But before long, she could no longer feel that power. Lilith was confused and thought that she had made a mistake. Even so, she had to check it immediately to ensure that nothing bad happened to them because she didn't want to take the slightest risk.
"What!?" Clara and the other two girls were shocked after hearing those words. Then they tried to feel it but found nothing there. Even so, they believed in Lilith's words.
"Then what are we waiting for!? Let's go there as soon as possible!" Clara said frantically. She feels worried about Kalya and others' situations. Clara knows that Kalya is the most powerful person among them besides Lilith. Still, a true god was on a different level from them. Among them, only Lilith could fight a monster of that level.
"Let's go…" Lilith stopped her words after seeing several people flying toward them. She quickly recognized that the three people were Kalya, Princess Freya, and Princess Aishia.
"Aisha! Freya! Miss Kalya!" Clara shouted while waving her hand. She felt relieved after seeing their appearance.
The girls were worried when Lilith said that a true god appeared where Kalya and the others were fighting. But when they saw the three girls arrive unharmed, only two possibilities came to mind.
First, what Lilith had sensed was wrong, and no true god had appeared there. Secondly, Kalya and her group had defeated the true god. But whichever possibility is true, the most important thing is that Kalya and the other two girls are okay right now.
"What happened there? I feel the power of true god from where you guys are fighting. Are there any reinforcements from those dragons?" Lilith wanted to reconfirm what she felt. She was sure her senses weren't wrong, and something must have happened there.
"Ah, that's..." Kalya briefly recounted what had happened in the battle.
Clara, Princess Iris, and Kyouka were shocked after hearing Kalya's explanation. It turned out that one of the opponents of Kalya's group had evolved into a metal dragon, and its strength had increased drastically to the level of a true god. What they didn't expect the most was that Princess Freya and the others had managed to defeat the monster and appeared in front of them unharmed.
Clara and the others were envious of the achievements of Kalya, Princess Freya, and Princess Aishia. But that feeling ignited their spirits and added more determination to the girls to do better. In the next battle, they intend to prove that they are not weaker than Princess Aishia and Princess Freya.
On the other hand, Lilith also felt the same way as Clara and the others. She didn't expect that Kalya and her group have defeated the true god. But then she let out a sigh of relief and smiled. The girls proved they could protect themselves even if Ziel weren't with them.
"How? We're great, aren't we?" Princess Freya smiled and puffed out her chest proudly. She bragged about the outcome of their fight to Clara and her group.
"Okay. We don't need to talk about it any further. We better defeat the hordes of earth dragons asap and then help your brother. Only then will we help the kings to fight the earth dragon emperor." Kalya smiled and flicked Princess Freya's forehead.
"Ugh! I understand! If it's about that, can you leave them to me? I want to try one of my new skills on that dragon horde!" Princess Freya suddenly requested Kalya and the girls.
"Hmm… are you sure that you can handle them alone?" Kalya hesitated when she heard that. She saw that the number of dragons in the horde was still quite large and was afraid that Princess Freya would act rashly to try out her new skill and put herself in danger.
"I'm sure! Besides, won't you guys protect me if my skills can't handle those monsters and fall into a dangerous situation? That way, I can calmly try out my new skill even if I run out of mana!" Princess Freya smiled playfully and stuck her tongue out at Kalya.
After seeing Princess Freya's behavior, Kalya and the girls looked at each other and could only shake their heads. Apart from Kalya and Lilith, the girls also wanted to fight the hordes of earth dragons. But since Princess Freya had volunteered first, they could only give up on their intentions and leave it to her.
"Okay. I will leave the dragon horde to you. Finish them off quickly because we still must help the group of heroes after this." Kalya sighed and finally agreed.
"Okay! I will eliminate them with my new skill!" Princess Freya's face turned serious, and she pointed her wand at the horde of earth dragons. Gold-colored mana overflowed from her body and gathered above her. Then her mana was compressed to form a giant sunflower.
[Gatling Sunflower]
The sunflowers rotated and shot large seeds of light toward the earth dragon horde. The attack is made of high compression mana and releases it in the form of projectiles at hundreds per second. The target of Princess Freya was a dragon head to kill one dragon with one seed of light.
The earth dragons tried to dodge the seeds of light. But the monsters gathered in one place, making it easy for Princess Freya's attack to hit them. Many of the dragons were hit by the seeds of light in the head and died instantly.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Roar after roar rang out from the earth dragon horde. Princess Freya slaughtered the monsters while drinking the potion from Ziel in her hand. The scene looks like a one-sided massacre.
The mages and knights of the Aurelia Kingdom voiced their war cries after they saw the earth dragons fall one after another from the sky and the one who did it was the Princess of their kingdom.
On the other hand, Kalya and the other girls opened their mouths wide when they saw the scene before their eyes and the expression on Princess Freya's face. They didn't think she had such a sadistic side.
Princess Freya continued to launch her attacks and didn't notice the girls' eyes. She focused on the earth dragons, who kept dodging the seeds of light she shot. The number of dragon hordes in the sky was drastically reduced from thousands to hundreds, and currently only in the tens.
Only a few earth dragons were left, and the ones that managed to survive were the ones with the best agility. Because of that, Princess Freya had a hard time hitting them. She released more mana and increased the number of her attacks on the remaining dragons.
"Stop it, Freya. We'd better leave the rest to the Aurelia Kingdom's troops. I'm sure they won't have any problems fighting the dragons now. We can't waste any more time in this place. Your brother's group seems to be struggling with the fortress dragon and is in a pinch." Kalya grabbed Princess Freya's arm to stop her.
Kalya and Lilith looked in the direction where Prince Fritz's group were fighting the fortress dragon. Only those two people were aware of the situation on the battlefield as they kept watch despite being idle.
"Ah, I understand." Princess Freya drew back her mana after hearing Kalya's words. She was too carried away and wanted to wipe out the dragon horde completely.
"Okay. Let's go to their place immediately." Kalya looks at the girls, and they respond with a nod. After that, they flew to where the hero group was fighting.
On the other side of the battlefield, Hikaru and his group looked overwhelmed by the fortress dragon. They managed to defeat one of the three dragons, which was already an outstanding achievement considering they only had the power of the Sword King. But that battle had consumed all their strength and left them in a weak state. Even though Hikaru and his group had taken potions to recover their condition, the effects were far worse than Ziel's potions.
Megumi's magic also worked slower than usual because she was in the same state. She had to cast support magic and heal her group members injured in battle. It made him run out of power faster than the others. Most of his group were frontline attackers who had to fight the dragon head-on. Because of that, they were injured more often, and Megumi had to treat them many times during the fight.
"What should we do now? If the situation continues, then we will be killed by those two dragons!" Hikaru said while breathing heavily. His face was pale, and his body was covered in wounds. The rest of his group, except for Megumi, also had the same condition as him.
After successfully defeating one of the fortress dragons, the course of the battle quickly reversed, and they were forced to fight on the defensive after running out of strength. From then on, the battle turned passive for them. Hikaru and his group could only dodge the attacks of the two dragons, which caused them to lose their stamina faster, and the number of injuries on their bodies continued to increase. It became a burden for Megumi at the back line. The best thing they could do now fought with hit-and-run tactics and keep their distance from the two fortress dragons.
"We can only hold on as long as we can and wait for reinforcements!" Prince Fritz replied calmly even though he was feeling panicked at the moment. He must not show his feelings because it will affect the other group members. They talked to each other using the communication magic tool from King Raghnall while continuously dodging the incoming attacks.
"Who will help us? Even the heroes are pushed like this. Do you think anyone else can fight those two dragons? Except for the kings, no one could fight them. Unfortunately, they were also busy with their opponents. I'm sure Kyouka's group is also in the same situation. Moreover, they were fighting four dragons, so you better forget those thoughts." Sintaro sneered when he heard Princess Fritz's words. He was easily irritated from the start of the battle.
"That's not necessarily the case. Kyouka and her group might be able to defeat the four fortress dragons." Hikaru raised his voice because Sintaro's attitude provoked his anger.
"Do you also believe they will be able to defeat those four dragons… Eh?" Sintaro wanted to reply to Hikaru's statement but suddenly stopped his words after seeing the dragon's jaws open before his eyes.
"Sintaro!" Hikaru and the others shouted in worry but couldn't do anything because they were far from him.
[Glacier Impact]
p
Just before the dragon's fangs touched Sintaro's body, a giant chunk of ice and a golden hill hit the dragon and sent it flying.
"I'm sorry for coming late! We're here to help!" The ones who came at that crucial moment were Princess Freya and her group.
