But we soon had to abandon our naive beliefs. The collapsed debris turned into magma and came at him like a pyroclastic flow.

　Lucky sped up even faster and in no time at all he was out of the cave and spinning around to see the cave.

　The village chief and the knight man flew into the forest, but they will be all right.

　The only thing left to do now is to let them survive on their own.



"Ivan, get out and go with Margret to the village for shelter.

"No. No. I'll fight too. I promised my grandmother I wouldn't run away.



　Ivan puts his hands out in front of him, and a tremendous snowstorm hits the magma-filled cave.

　I had thought he had a great deal of magic in him, but I had no idea he had this much magic in him.



　For a moment the lava cools and hardens, and the red lava turns to black stone, but then a dragon stumbles out from behind it, spitting fire.



--They've got ...... some nerve.

　The dragon yelps in pain and spits out a flaming projectile from its mouth, but it doesn't seem to be aiming at us. It looks like it's fighting something other than us.



----rock, watch out! ----



　A stray bullet comes toward us. Lucky tries to defend himself with his wind magic, but flames wrap around his wind magic and come at him as a whirlwind of fire. Lucky's wind magic is pushed back.



"Run, Lucky!"

　How can Lucky be defeated by magic? He barely avoids a direct hit, but his bangs are a little scorched, and his throat is burning hot from the hot air in his nose. Oh no.



"Ivan, take a recovery potion. Make sure Margret has some too."

"Yes, yes..."

　I'll take one myself. When the throat is burned by hot air, the airway can become obstructed and the patient stops breathing. This is a characteristic of airway burns. There's a burning smell in my nose.



"Is Lucky okay?"

----Locker- not a good match. My pride is breaking.



"I'm fine, Lucky. It's just not a good idea to fight here. We need to get away from the village or we risk collateral damage."

　The dragon's fire becomes a whirlwind of fire and moves through the forest. The fire disappears into the sky, but the forest is instantly transformed into a burnt field, and the fire spreads. The thought of it heading toward the village was too frightening to contemplate.



"Ivan, I know you want to fight, but not any more. We can't protect you.

----"Ivan, I know you want to fight, but we can't go any further. We can't protect you. From here on, the adults will take care of it.　

"I want to fight too. No!　I have to fight. Do you need power?　Then ...... Mr. Locke, please help me. I want to protect my grandma. Join me ......."



"But Ivan is human, he can't do that. ......"

　I was about to say this when the voice echoed in my head again.



The princess of the ice and snow wants to be my friend. Do you want to join us?



"Ivan, you ...... are a girl demon?"



I'm sorry. My real name is Emil. I'm a survivor of the late Ice and Snow clan. For some reason it's hard for me to live in this village. I've been hiding my real name. I beg you, brother. Please help me.



The Princess of the Frost and Snow wants to join us. Will you join us?

　The same message was playing in my head.
