Chapter 333

Chapter 333 Strongest Sage, Raises Vigilance

" . . . She's as big as ever . "

Iris's dragon form looks quite awe-inspiring from this distance .

It's still Iris on the inside regardless of her form though .

"A . . . A dragon outside town!"

"Wha? It's really . . . A dragon . . . "

"Any experienced adventurer here?! . . . You're a rank B, aren't you? Do something about that!"

"Are you crazy?! Like hell anyone could beat that! . . . let's hurry up and run!"

The sight of Iris caused a stir inside the town .

There are even people who fainted while frothing on their mouth due to excessive fear .

Dragons are feared as unstoppable calamities in this present era .

Though dragons themselves are barely around anymore . . . Their gigantic size and overwhelming powers are truly a symbol of fear .

And the townspeople are correct for fearing Iris .

After all, she's quite a high ranking darkness dragons amongst her dragon peers .

Were Iris shot her [Dragon Breath], this town would have vanished without a trace with Zadokilgias as the sole survivor .

"Oy, you there! You better run too!"

"It's a dragon! A giant dragon unlike anything showed up! Everyone, run!"

"Over here! Hurry! Adventurers, help carry children the elderly!"

Just as planned, they've promptly starting evacuation .

I'm a bit worried if the elderly and children would get away in time . . . But the guild and adventurers seem to be lending their hands .

This town's populace appears to have a strong bond between them .

Judging from Mana Reactions . . . I don't see anyone lagging behind .

While I was thinking that . . . Iris shouted out loud in dragon language .

『Oooh! My body feels so light! Mathia's treatment really works a miracle!』

I see that she's delighted at the state of her body .

Iris's body--especially her wings and magic circuits were all tattered after she got rolled up in Magic Fusion Reactor's meltdowns .

I had been treating her damaged magic circuits during our journey together all this time . . . Glad to see it's working .

『I can shoot [Dragon's Breath] just fine now! Thank you so much!』

Iris said her thanks to me even though we're on the eve of a battle .

Her voice--caused a panic in the town .

"T . . . the dragon's mad!"

"What's a dragon doing here!"

"HIIIIIIIIIII! I-it's all over!"

Apparently Iris's jolly voice sounded like enraged roars to the townspeople .

They rushed out of town in a fluster .

Half of the town on Iris's side has been completely deserted already .

I talk to Alma and Ruli while watching that .

"You two, go wait at the planned spot . . . We're going with that plan we discussed on our way here . "

"Yes!"

"Gotcha! . . . Man, it's a huge responsibility!"

Afterward, Ruli and Alma ran out of town .

After confirming that, I headed to the guild .

(Figured . )

I murmured in my mind when I saw Zadokilgias .

Zadokilgias is walking slowly among the fleeing adventurers slightly behind other evacuees .

Its movement is unlike the townspeople who's seized with fear .

It's full of calculations and alertness of its surroundings .

This evacuation isn't necessary to Zadokilgias .

Even a [Dragon Breath] doesn't warrant that much vigilance since it's easily dodgeable so long you pay attention .

Iris by herself is no menace to this demon .

Zadokilgias is on the lookout for possible demon suppression units lurking among the populace .

Zadokilgias would easily perceive people trying to besiege it when it was staying still in the guild . . . . But that's not the case at the congestion of people trying to get out of town's entrance .

Encircling Zadokilgias in a crowd is a simple matter .

In previous era, a suppression unit that excelled in stealth were capable of disguising themselves as common populace beyond recognition .

If Zadokilgias focused only in pretending to escape and mixed itself in the crowd of evacuees, such a suppression unit would easily encircle it .

To Zadokilgias who boasts an overwhelming advantage in skill set yet falls behind in pure power, getting besieged is a huge disadvantage .

It would surely try to avoid getting driven into a situation where it gets squashed in a barrage of brute force where skill means nothing .

In reality, that kind of suppression unit doesn't exist in this current era . . . But Zadokilgias isn't aware of that right now .

And yet, not taking shelter here would mean disclosing itself to the suppression unit, rendering its human disguise pointless .

As such Zadokilgias purposely lag slightly behind the other evacuees to avoid congestion .

Yup, it's all going as planned .
