The flying dragon is a valuable means of transportation and warfare that half the countries in the world do not possess.
　As a subspecies of demons, they have a rough temperament, take a long time to raise, and have a money-eating aspect that is related to the compatibility of the horseman, so only a limited number of countries can have a good number of them.

　The number of flying dragons kept by the Knights of the Kingdom of Theorning is approximately 400.
　It's a good thing that you're not the only one who has a problem with this.

It's a bit bigger than the dragons I've seen before.

　Fiel looked up at the flying dragon and let out a sigh of admiration.
　The flying dragon behind Rinne was so different from the other flying dragons.
　The flying dragon that Borg was riding was magnificent, but the flying dragon in front of him was even more different, with scales, muscle tone, a sense of intimidation, and all sorts of other things that made you think it was a different species.

So this is Rinne's prized flying dragon?

This is the best flying dragon in the kingdom that no one but me has ever been able to ride. I can guarantee you that it will fly as fast as it can.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　I asked her to prepare the fastest flying dragon, and Linnea merely responded to that request.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　I'm sure you've heard of it, but you didn't say anything about it at the time because you decided it wouldn't be a problem for you. ---- In the end, the affinity between a flying dragon and a horseman is just a matter of whether or not their magic wavelengths match.
　In short, all you have to do is match your own wavelength with the flying dragon's magic wavelength.
　It is easy to say, but there is no magician who can change this wavelength at will.
　The reason is that changing the wavelength is very much related to the attributes you can handle.
　It's no problem for me who can use all the attributes, not to mention ordinary mages.

"Nice flying dragon. You look a bit naughty.

　As I extended my hand, I was met with an unparalleled threat from the flying dragon.
　It looks like it's about to sink its fangs into me.

"Lord Walth!　I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.
　In the event that you're not sure what to do, you'll be able to always ask for help.
　If you increase the circulation of magic power and make it clear who's on top, the flying dragon will start to look frightened.

The flow of magic power is also rough. ......

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you can do to help.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　I guess you decided that I would be fine. .......
　I'm curious as to what your intentions were in recommending this guy.
　Is it really because I requested the fastest flying dragon and you just followed my request?

Can I ask what you mean?

I thought it would be impossible to make him obey me, so my plan was to accompany him as a horseman. ...... There's nothing better than having strength, right?

If that's the case, I'm sorry.

I thought it would be a good plan, but it can't be helped.

　Pinne looks refreshed and opens the door to the stables.

"It's not a bad idea to send out a true hero. I look forward to working with you.

Ainez may be selfish, but please do not indulge her.

　He looked surprised for a moment and then immediately started to chuckle.

I'm sure you'll be glad to hear that.



　　　　　　　"That's really fast.



That's really fast.

Hold on tight.

"Yes!

　I had Fiel's hands around my waist and his face was pressed against my back.
　That's how fast this flying dragon is.
　It's about 20% faster than the one the Borg were riding.
　It's nice to see the scenery below you flowing and disappearing like a torrent.

"Fiehl, don't mess with Hell Artyos. I'll finish him off.

"All right. I'll watch from the rear.

　The battle with Yra made me realize that I'm not good at fighting while protecting someone.
　It would be better if Fiel could stay away from the battlefield so that he could fight to the fullest without worrying.
　I don't need a plan.
　The current me should be able to win without as much trouble as before.

　Bypassing the Kingdom of Hellsant, I took the circuitous northern route and arrived in the Kingdom of Worms, Beruit, just before noon the next day.
　Even though we were at a considerable altitude, we could still see the destroyed city.
　The magical scars that gouged out the earth in all directions were proof that a considerable amount of skill had gone into battle with Hell Artyo.
　However, in the face of this scene, only a sense of discomfort spreads in my heart.

Mr. Walth, ......, there's no sign of Hellartio anywhere.

I haven't received any reports of them moving. ...... That's not all.

　And it doesn't add up that the destroyed city is still intact, even though it was used against Hell Artyos.
　I'm sure they fought, but it was too one-sided.
　The damage looks like it could only have been caused by an attack from the human side.
　If it was Hell Artio, the city should have been left unscathed.

"Magic sensing spells can't sense magic in this city. Even if the people have been evacuated, there must be at least a scouting party from each country. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to continue to locate Hell Artyo.

　Something is wrong.
　This seemed to be the case with Fiel, so he decided to go down to the most heavily damaged area, near the royal palace, and take a look around.
　There are definitely scars from the battle, but the most important thing is that there is nothing lying around.

　The name "ravenous dragon" is derived from its unquenchable appetite.
　If the battle had been this fierce, Hellartio would have devoured every human it could find.


　This should not change even if it becomes an alchemy doll, and it seems necessary to maintain its form as an alchemy doll.
　However, there are no bodies or traces of such a thing.

There's nothing but rubble. ......

　Fiel also noticed this, and seemed to be puzzled by this seemingly contrived situation.
　We entered the palace, which was invisible from above, and proceeded through the space where there was not a single sound.
　A part of the ceiling of the dimly lit building collapsed, and in a hall with light shining through, it revealed itself to us.

　Something that should never have been there.
　Something that, if it existed, would destroy everything.
　It was still lying there in the form I had once given it to the Kingdom of Chlorina to keep.

...... Mr. Walth, ...... this is the skull of Hell Artyo, .......

　I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm not sure what you mean by that,......, someone has already defeated it?

　There is no way that is possible.
　Even if it were possible, it should have been reported to us if it had been defeated.
　But if this thing actually exists in this place, and there is a reason why no report has come in,
There's only one possible explanation.

Mr. Walls, there's something approaching.

Is this magic ...... human?

　The magic that is caught by the magic sensing spell is weak and of uniform strength.
　It was gathering towards us in large numbers.
