"Stop it!　Please!　We've been bad."



　First it was Lucky. He used wind magic to blow down all the walls of Suiju, which had a magnificent fortress wall. He performed this feat with great finesse, taking care not to injure anyone.



　While the men were stunned, Mellow flooded the entire city with water magic.

　Since the goal is not to kill, it is enough for him to show his power.



　If proper measures are not taken, the plague will soon spread.

　There are a lot of wizards in the area, so that should not be a problem.



　After that, Emil, with the help of Domorte, lowered the temperature of the whole country at once.

　Even from the top of the mountain, you can see the ice. It is quite unpleasant for those who are hit by the ice.



　And finally, Domorte cast a meteorite spell over the whole of Suiju. Of course, he didn't aim at the city or the country, but the ground was more damaged than the dragon had made a hole in it. It would be difficult to communicate with other cities by wagons.



　Even if we were to invade other countries, it would be difficult to move around without solid roads.



Please, I admit that our magic is not very good.

I don't think that your magic is poor. But since you don't seem to understand the difference in our abilities, I'll have to show you the difference between your country and ours. Your country is the magical Suiju country, isn't it?　You don't seem to be able to resist magic at all, how big are you in your country?



"We're middle-ranked, but no one can use magic like us. We were wrong."

"I'm sorry, but there are things that can be forgiven as mistakes and there are things that can't be forgiven. You should be thankful it didn't cost you your life."



"I am so sorry. I will never touch your country again."

Locke, what are you gonna do?　Let them know a little more?　We can destroy their cities now if you want. Besides, it's easier to go after them directly."



--Yes, if I can exert myself as much as I want, I can destroy them from here, regardless of who they are.



　Lucky and Domorte are talking happily, making eye contact with each other.



"Yes, I agree. I don't want anyone to hold a grudge against us, so it's best to leave nothing to regret.

"Well, no one will hold a grudge against you. In our country, being able to use magic is the best thing. So we'll never hold a grudge.



"But wouldn't it be better to lose everything so that no one will hate us?　It's the safest thing to do if you don't have anyone to hold a grudge against."

"Please. Just save your life. ......



"Yes, please. I'll spare your life. But how are you going to take responsibility for trying to take our lives?　Just because you attacked us unilaterally and asked us to save our lives, doesn't mean we're forgiven, right?"

"Of course it is."



"Of course." "How are you going to take responsibility?　You were going to kill us without question, weren't you?

That was an accident. ......



Lucky.

----Aiyo.



　Lucky gathered up his most magical power yet and blew up the mountain of Suiju country in the back. Yeah, he didn't have to show that much power, but ...... Lucky did a good job, didn't he?　I can't get mad at him because he looks at me with a look that says, "You know, I'm not mad at you.



I can't get mad at him because he looks at me with a look that says, "By your logic, that was an accident, wasn't it?　I wonder how many more accidents there will be. Maybe this time you'll go into the wrong place."



"Please. I'll do anything.

"Okay. I'll come to your country, and you'll make sure I'm covered.



"Locke, why don't you go with me and Lara?　I can be back with him in no time.

You sure?



Yeah, just send these guys downstairs and I'll have that chore done in no time.

All right, then. Lucky, you'll be my escort.

--Yes, sir.

　Their faces were so lifeless that I could hardly look at them anymore.



"So you'd better listen to what I'm saying. If you're rude to me when I'm not around, there's nothing to stop you now."

"Hi."



　Then Lucky and Domorte and the others went to Suiju country to talk about what had happened.
