大神同学要被吃掉

The soldiers who woke up were startled and whispered among themselves.

Fifty or so Wyverns landed west of the camp at once.

“What the hell?”

“What’s up with this swarm of Wyverns?”

However, they quickly realized those Wyverns were all saddled. It was proof that they were monsters tamed and trained to be ridden.

Most of them had no passengers yet except for the three Dragon Knights leading the entire group.

“Oh, you’ve arrived.”

Watching the scene, Tonitrus glowed.

“That’s fast. No matter how low their endurance is, I can’t ignore the speed of a flying animal.”

One of the staff asked, “Where the hell did you get those Wyverns?”

“They’re from the Dragon Knights of the Panaticus Kingdom.”

The Panaticus Kingdom was a small country east of Latna under the influence of the Kaldris Kingdom.

They were also nurturing the Dragon Knights, like the Xrad Kingdom in the west.

The Three Continental Powers treated them as a trifle, but it was still a reliable power for a small country in the countryside.

“They gave all of that.”

Looking at the triumphant Tonitrus, the chief of staff clicked his tongue.

“The Panaticus Kingdom agreed to this? That’s probably almost all of their ridable Wyverns.”

Of course, the Panaticus Kingdom was surprised at first.

If they handed over all the hard-to-raise Wyverns, their national power would be greatly damaged.

However, they had to kneel before the arrogant message of the Supreme Commander of the Kaldris Kingdom.

-Should a small country go against a great nation?

“They have to give us what we ask for. What can they do?”

Snorting, he looked at the Wyverns.

They weren’t like the cursed ‘Pitch-Black Nightmare,’ but they were all skilled. They seemed to be able to fly with two knights on their back.

Besides, it was quite encouraging that they got Wyverns, not Griffins or Hippogriffs.

“An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth…”

Thinking of the Allendia Army who would be beaten in their own ways, Tonitrus was in a good mood.

“Wyvern for Wyvern, hahahaha!”

* * *

A huge group of shadows passed by in unison under the moonlight of the night sky.

It was a flock of fifty Wyverns flying over.

Those on their backs were a hundred high-level knights chosen by the Kaldris Army.

Their commander, Lord Boras, looked down to the ground and trembled.

“Ugh, but this height is a bit scary…”

Even though he was a high-level Aura user at level 78, he couldn’t help but feel fearful of heights.

The deputy riding with him soothed him.

“Calm down. If we go a little further, we will find Mount Kseril, where the 5th Templar Corps is located. We can land soon.”

“I see. Phew.”

Boras, who was taking a deep breath and calming himself, suddenly frowned.

“Hmm?”

Far away, under the light of the delicate moon, something black was flying in the air.

“Well, what about that?”

Boras’ face hardened.

It was approaching so fast that the opponent’s outline became instantly visible.

A pitch-black fuselage, wings that were much larger than other Wyverns, and a silver mane that stretched out splendidly behind the neck!

“The Pitch-Black Nightmare!”

“Wyvern of the Sword King!”

While the Kaldris knights panicked, Effir had already circled loudly around the Wyvern flock.

Boras, who was instantly overwhelmed by the sight, spoke up.

“How come they showed up already?”

Until that moment, the Kaldris Army had never been able to locate the King Sword’s party.

Since they took to the skies, locating them was difficult.

No matter how huge the Wyvern was, it wasn’t much different from a hawk or eagle if it flew high in the sky if looking at it from the ground.

Moreover, its movement speed was too fast, even if they could find them.

Upon receiving location reports and taking action, it had already gone a long way from where it was last seen.

That was why they used the same technique…

“How on Latna can they locate us so quickly?”

Leon Hart shook his head as he looked at the confused Kaldris Wyvern unit.

“You should’ve done a good job if you were going to copy us.”

There was only one Effir.

Just one Wyvern that could dominate the sky.

On the other hand, what about the Kaldris Army?

“Fifty 10-meter-tall monsters are flying in unison, and you thought nobody would see them?”

Even eagles would stand out if they flocked together.

The ordinary people who had nothing to do with the war were surprised by such a sight, saying, “Oh, what is that?”

Since it was amazing, they would’ve had to watch closely, allowing everyone to realize that that was way too many Wyverns.

Such a gathering wasn’t natural at all. Hence, word quickly spread to others know right away.

“Of course, we’re moving.”

The difference in speed was also a problem.

The speed of Effir was several times that of the normal Wyverns.

Therefore, even if the Kaldris Kingdom troops grasped their current location, they would’ve already withdrawn after looking at the other side by the time they came up with countermeasures.

But what if Effir was in pursuit?

She was fast enough to catch up to her target before the opponent could arrive at the destination.

“Thinking about it, you must have easily noticed a loophole, but you did this reckless thing…”

Looking at the Kaldris knights on the Wyverns, Leon Hart clicked his tongue.

“Your brains are pretty slow, too, tsk.”

* * *

The silver-maned Wyvern kept hovering around, and the Kaldris knights couldn’t respond.

These weren’t official Dragon Knights. They had never learned how to deal with that situation.

They were looking at Boras, the commander, with panic in their eyes.

Of course, Boras didn’t know what to do either.

However, he had to take command of the situation as usual.

“Everyone, calm down!”

He took out his sword and covered it with a Blade Aura, causing it to shine. He sent signals that way and shouted.

“Stay in line and land slowly!”

Even if they landed, they would only get high-flying bombs, but it was still better than fighting in the air.

Boras’s judgment itself wasn’t wrong.

Nevertheless, that was a serious error.

Effir laughed at the opponent’s movements.

“Look, I told you they’d do that.”

She used to be a member of Dragon Knights.

Hence, she was also well aware of how different the Dragon Knights were from the regular Knights on horseback.

“Why are you in line there? You have to extend up and down.”

It would be advantageous to maintain the ranks on the two-dimensional ground, even during a retreat.

But the air was three-dimensional.

There weren’t only front and back, but up and down.

There was no need to maintain the line in the air.

Even if they scattered in preparation for the enemy attack, they could land in one place and reorganize their formation.

“There’s no way that horse-riding knights would know that.”

The linear movements of the Kaldris Wyvern troops made them good prey.

Effir quickly penetrated around them.

If Ryu Han-bin or Artis attacked at that moment, they could easily win…

“Your turn, Effir.”

“Take care of it.”

However, those on her back did nothing.

“Yes!”

At the same time as the answer, Effir folded her wings and descended, flying past through the swarm of Wyverns with intense speed.

It was then.

-Activate, Polymorph Necklace!

A dazzling light spread everywhere around her, and a horrific situation soon met her opponents.

More than a hundred Kaldris knights clung to the backs of fifty naked human beings and began to fall!

“Argh!”

“What? W-what is this?”

“Where the hell did you come from?”

“Why are you naked?”

Effir continued to hover among Wyverns, activating the Polymorph Necklace.

Each time, armored knights and naked humans intertwined and fell like rain.

Thumping sounds constantly rang all over the ground.

In a pitiful tone, Artis shook his head.

“There are Griffins and Hippogriffs, so why did they take only Wyverns with them?”

Among the fallen and rolling knights, the faint screams of the Wyverns who became human were mixed.

“Argh! What is it?”

“Did I become a human?”

“You, too?”

“It hurts! It hurts!”

Effir smiled with relief.

The altitude wasn’t high because they had been landing. Thanks to that, quite a bit of them still survived after they became humans.

“That’s great. We’re in the same Wi-Van, so I don’t want to kill you…”

Of course, they suffered serious injuries such as broken limbs, but they still had a higher chance of survival than being shot down in the air.

The Kaldris Knights weren’t particularly injured either.

As everyone was above level 70, a fall from that height was enough for them to handle.

“Ugh…”

“I don’t know what happened, but…”

“Anyway, we’re down on the ground!”

“Everyone ready for battle!”

Effir frowned at the Kaldris knights, who were quickly regrouping the formation.

“I tried to save the Wyverns, but it ended up not doing much damage. Should I have shot them down from a higher place?”

“What’s the point of that?”

Ryu Han-bin grinned as he pulled out his Gigant.

“It’s only a hundred at the most.”

* * *

The Kaldris Knights fought very bravely.

No one could doubt their courage.

The Top Four, the Sword King Felard Bean, realized the idiom of fallen leaves in fall by blowing everything up.

“Surrender! Those who come at me cannot escape death… It will be less painful to surrender!”

Another of the Top Four, Leon Hart, appeared briefly and then vanished throughout the battlefield, firing spiritual spears and hitting each place like a storm.

“Kybriel’s darkness, envelop my fists!”

Those two alone were desperately powerful.

In the air, the Sword King’s Wyvern, the Pitch-Black Nightmare, spewed a series of Breaths.

Boom!

On the back of the Wyvern, an emerging power with an estimated level of 110 or higher, the Mage of Incineration constantly blew flame magic.

“Fireball! Flame Spear! Ignition Blast!”

To be able to attack with one’s entire might without running away from that situation, where they had as slim of a chance of winning as a chick’s pee, was indeed incredible bravery.

“Thanks to you, we won comfortably.”

Looking at the fallen Kaldris knights, Leon Hart burst into laughter.

“It’s a job to chase down and catch every fugitive.”

He approached and asked Ryu Han-bin a question.

“What do we do now? We have to take them all prisoner.”

No matter how high the level was, a person could only have two hands.

It was easy to knock down opponents, but it was almost impossible to subdue and manage everyone.

Leon Hart waved his hands as if it weren’t a big deal.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already taken care of it.”

Why did the Kaldris Wyvern unit get there in the first place?

They came to attack the 5th Templar Corps moving through Mount Kseril.

There was an ally in the next mountain to manage prisoners instead of them.

“I’ll be right back. We need to take them over and pull off.”
