Chapter 311 - Episode Eleven - Attack of Penrath (2)

“There are two Nalgarn that have appeared now …… I guess anything is possible in that country now.”

I blurted out as I rode my horse, looking at the Nalgarn ahead of me.

You can see two huge dragons with three heads coming towards us from the mountainside in the distance.

This time, too, they probably have a regeneration magic formula set up, but while last time they looked like a pile of treasure, this time they looked like a pile of inventory.

In my mind’s eye, I see Lark’s warehouse.

Currently, the dusty Nalgarn equipment is strewn about, making it as unstable as the end of a certain wood tower stacking party game.

The other day, I heard that a thief had broken down a stack of Nalgarn armor and crushed it underneath him.

Even though it was A-rank armor, it wasn’t seriously damaged.

I don’t know about the thief.

“But I’m sure the other side can’t keep up appearances now that the operation has failed. There is no way that the Riveras Kingdom wanted to go head to head with the Dinrat Kingdom.”

Euris, who was holding the reins behind me, replied.

It was an emergency, but unfortunately, I had no riding experience, so I asked Lark to find me a long saddle and left the steering to Euris.

At first, I was in the back, but the impact of my hind legs kicking the ground was painful, so I begged her to turn me to the front.

The Riveras Kingdom was in the midst of a civil war, and was probably too lazy to deal with the local magical beast disasters.

Even if there were multiple Nalgrans in the country, it was not impossible.

In the past, the remodeled Nalgarn that was sent to the country was probably just a maneuver to hide the shadows of the Riveras Kingdom and divide the fage territory from the rest, and was not a serious attempt.

“It was probably because of Abel-dono’s success that the hostile relationship came to the surface early on, leaving the Riveras Kingdom with no choice but to make a serious move. That’s about it, I guess.”

“For them to be forced to make a serious move, it’s only two Nalgarns, though ……”

It’s too dull.

Just how confident were you in that patchwork of mock regeneration magic formula!?, is what I’d to say to them.

I don’t need any more Nalgarn in the first place.

They should have made it a different kind of magical beast anyway.

I wonder if this is some kind of advanced harassment in the style of the Riveras Kingdom.

“…………”

At my muttering, Euris falls silent.

“What’s wrong?”

“Only Abel would dare to say such a thing to a regenerating A-rank magic beast. We attacked Nalgarn with all our forces and were forced to retreat, remember?”

But it was really just a quick invasion after Peter’s request.

Peter was getting impatient, but I was too opportunistic and ended up falling behind.

I don’t think they’re serious about the two Nalgarns.

If it wasn’t a suicide attack by the whole country, and they were challenging us with a chance to win, they might still be equipped with weapons of Levi’s spear class.

The movements of the other three major powers are also said to be disturbing.

The Dinrat Kingdom may be in a more critical situation than I thought.

“But, this is bad……”

“What have you noticed? For Abel to say that it’s bad……?”

“No, this will probably cause another collapse in the price of the armor …… The news of the appearance of multiple Nalgarns will spread outside the territory. In this case, the merchants who know about the Nalgarn shock …… and the nobles who have private armies will do their best to limit their losses by selling off the armor and buying it back after the price drops. Even if we decide to keep it to ourselves, the market will panic again when the word gets out.”

“…… It’s trivial compared to the physical crisis in the territory, Abel-dono.”

In the past, I was overjoyed to see the regenerated Nalgarn, but now that there are two golden chickens here, Altamir and Peter that can produce any amount of money, I don’t feel Nalgarn is particularly valuable.

And I still have a surplus of them. The dragon is too big.

” ” “GISHAAAAAAA!” ” “

One-half of the two Nalgarns looked at me.

Each of the three heads glared at me and roared.

All at once, they came running towards us.

Hearing the roar, the horses shrank to a halt.

“I-I-I’ve never actually seen Abel-dono defeat Nalgarn …… but can he really defeat such a giant ……? In addition, the neck may regenerate again, just like last time, right?”

“No …… There are a few drawbacks to that regeneration magic circle, and it won’t work if certain conditions are met. It’s not much of a magic circle, to be honest. It’s like a budding alchemist who can’t even read magic formulas properly, and when he’s playing around with it, he’s exclaiming, “It just happened to work!”.”

I replied nonchalantly.

The regeneration spell that was set up in Nalgarn was clearly not that big of a deal.

It’s clear at a glance that it’s just a bunch of random magic formulas from the past added, subtracted, and altered a bit.

A swordsman who specializes in fighting from the front would not be able to understand it, but a sorcerer like me, who is more of an alchemist who mainly studies from the rear, can immediately see its weaknesses.

I’d like to tell Icarus to analyze it more thoroughly.

It’s no exaggeration to say that his laziness delayed the subjugation of Nalgarn.

It’s the reason why I’m allowed to show my big face in Fage territory.

“I-Is that how it is? It’s the complete replication and immediate regeneration of a living organism, right? If it were that easy, the world would be a much more ridiculous place ……”

“That’s why most of the biological magic is forbidden.”

“I think it’s more about ethics.”

“In addition, the magic formula’s in Nalgarn were not able to perform instantaneous regeneration in its entirety. If you had noticed the composition of the magic formula that made up the magic circle, you would have known the roughness of the effect. If you had been able to see the weaknesses, you would have been able to defeat Nalgarn with the strength of your private army and alchemist division enough.”

“Really!?”

I nodded and held up my wand.

“Yes, I’ll show you how it’s done.”

One of the Nalgarns is coming towards us, but the other one only glances at us and shows no further interest.

It’s hard to tell if it’s a problem with the Nalgarn’s original temperament or if their behavioral patterns are restricted and they’re given individual roles.

Either way, we’re just going to sink both of them.

There’s no change in that.

I waved my wand and conjured up three magic circles.

“Wind, form, blade.”

A blade of wind shoots from each magic circle.

They float into the sky with a loud sound and fly towards Nalgarn.

The red neck was the most forward part of the body, and it swiped it clean right under the head.

Fresh blood flew and the head fell down.

The remaining blue and yellow eyes were filled with astonishment as they stared at the blown cross-section.

Immediately, a magic circle appeared near Nalgarn’s neck.

At the same time, two other blades of wind blew off the heads of Blue and Yellow.

The magic circle that was about to unfold shrank and failed to fire.

“You see, if you cut down the three heads at the same time, the regeneration technique will not work. Our dependence on Nalgarn is too great.”

I turned around to see Euris looking at me with cold eyes.

“How are we going to cut the head down at the same time ……?”

The three remaining heads of the other Nalgarn froze, looking straight at the other Nalgarn that had sunk to the ground.

Then slowly, all six eyes turned to me.

“In the first place, it only grows a head, so it’s useless if you blow up its body.”

” ” “GISHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!” ” “

Nalgarn turns his back on me and runs away towards the mountains.

“Flame, form, ball.”

I produce a ball of flame at the tip of my staff and injects magic power into it.

The warding compresses and forces the sphere to stay in shape, increasing the energy.

It may not have been necessary to use the Abel ball, but unlike the skinny neck, it takes a lot of effort to blow up the torso without fail.

It’s the quickest way to kill someone if you’re too stingy with your magic power and fail to kill them.

The ball of white light that was released flew into Nalgarn’s back.

My vision was enveloped in white light, and Nalgarn’s scream of despair echoed.

When my vision returned, we’re left with the charred scales and pieces of flesh of the blasted Nalgarn, and three battered heads.

“You’re relentless ……”

“I’m not really interested in it anymore, and bringing it back will only lower the value of the Nalgarn I have. It’s probably unnecessary.”
