- Rubias Perspective

"Then get ready immediately - but first I have to heal your wounds. Drink up the liquid."

Placed before our eyes, Serene says, pointing to a cup that emits a strange odor. I was unexpectedly frowning at the different colors and smells that I didn't even think humans could drink. When I look at Chirali and left and right, my buddies have the same look.

"Um, is this...?

"This is a specially made restorative medicine. It is a convenient medicine that will heal wounds and restore magic, as well as blow your sleepiness. I haven't made it in 300 years, but I did it better than I thought."

To Ciel's inquiry, Serene gave him a slightly more adept look....... Hard to understand why she's good at creating such an inexperienceable thing, but she's a dragon, although she makes it look like a person. It should not apply to our common sense.

We hesitated for a moment to look at each other and drink, but there's no way Serene could have done a troublesome imitation of poisoning, and this liquid really works like she said. Then there is no choice. Drinking up this amount of liquid to rush to the master as soon as possible is not a masterpiece. I never took the cup in front of me, holding my breath and pouring its contents into the back of my throat all at once.

――

My whole body gets hot around my stomach with the kind of irritation I've never felt before in my mouth. I desperately feel like I'm about to vomit because of the smell of a dove, closing my eyes tightly and holding my mouth down with both hands. The liquids and other sour things that I just drank up crept up and made me cry, but I was forced to swallow them.

"Gee ho! Ugh... it's not like it tastes bad..."

"That tastes like the worst thing I've ever tasted... But maybe because of that? Looks like the wound's completely healed."

"True. Nowhere hurts."

"... now we can fight."

That's what Dieria said with her combative caged eyes. Yes, what is enough to drink up this liquid? The master's priority is now. Not if you're distracted by something else. When we went to the corner of the room without anyone telling us, we silently began to check our gear.

"You seem to be feeling better. More importantly. Then it's easy to fight, I'm out one foot ahead. The battle place left this room and went straight across the door. We at the Dragon feel narrow, but it's a place big enough for you humans to break out. Come whenever you're ready."

That said, Serene left the room behind without looking back either. If it's true, I'd just like to rush out the moment I checked my gear, but we nodded one at each other, face to face by side. Serene is strong. I don't think he's as strong as his master on the boulder, but he's learned last time he has no winning shot at fighting without any maneuvers. Fighting with emotions alone ends up being lightly invisible, and when I realize it, I can think of enough ochi called this room again. Still, it's not something I know when I'll get to my master. Then we should calmly analyze the power difference and work out the maneuver of how we beat Serene. For that reason, I cut the fire first.

"First of all, we can't go about Serene in our move. I don't know how fast she got serious, but I'm sure she's overwhelmingly faster than all of us."

"Plus the attack is overwhelming. I haven't hit him yet, but I think we should consider him as defensive."

Everyone nods at Ciel's supplement. Even the Green Dragon, said to be the weakest, is so difficult to scale that it lightly begins attacking skilled soldiers. We can also humanize, and it's normal to think of dragons with more intelligence than us as more powerful than soles.

"But this time you'll admit to winning to the point of scratching a scratch, won't you? Then you don't have to worry too much about defense?

"I guess so, but I also have to think about the possibility of not even scratching that"

Dielia argues with Karin's words. Yes, it is. I don't know how common our weapons and technology can be to Serene. If you're intact where you hit a blow all over your body, we don't have the power to exchange it.

"I can't help thinking about that. We have no choice but to fight her with weapons or magic, so let's just focus on one thing: strike. So, the question is how do we hit it..."

When Ciel said, everyone shut up with a difficult face. At that time - even though he was not calm, Serene showed us all beating without bitterness. The speed that can't even be seen is that. But we've only been through tough fights so far, and we don't lose our will to that extent. Karin, who is also the moodmaker of the party, is forced to smile, even though she won't be confident herself.

"Something... situationally similar, right? Look, remember the first time you fought the Demons. The demons we fought were faster and stronger than us, and we couldn't have won, but we could still fight each other, couldn't we?

"Right. I was able to turn the war upside down with Lapis' advice then. If you remember how to do it, you might be able to do something about it this time."

Dieria was right, I was remembering a firing encounter with the Demons. What was the Master saying to us at that time that we were faster and inferior to our enemies? If the other person is faster than he is, it's not too late to look at him and judge him. 'Watch', not 'see'. Put the whole thing in sight with bonyards and anticipate the next move from the other person's gaze or breath. This time we just need to raise that to the limit.

"The only way to deal with Serene is to throw away any useless moves and stand around with the minimum necessary. Just a hunch, but I don't even think a flashy attack would work on her, and I think only a really plain and sharp attack would be the only way to attack her"

Ciel nodded to agree with me.

"I agree with Rubias, too. I'm going to cover everyone this time because the big moves will be inhibited."

"Then I'll stop flashy spiritual magic, too. Luckily, there seem to be many spirits in this temple, so I'll only cover them with auxiliary magic and bows. More importantly, my sword arm will get in the way."

If Dieria can summon Behemoth, it could be a good battle, but I can't help it. Besides, her bow and spiritual magic are superb. It's comforting to us at the avant-garde if that means she'll focus on aiding.

"I mean... me and Rubias have to work hard this time."

Karin smiles at me, though she won't really be able to afford it. I smiled at my mouth to respond to that, too.

"Right. The two avant-gardes at the party will contain the enemy - it will be just as it should be as a warrior, so it's more where you want it."

"Then the operation is settled. Pinch Serene with Karin and Rubias, and me and Dieria will be thoroughly covered from a distance. If you stay close, you might be wiped out in no time, so I'll keep the guards as far away as I can. Anything else?

Everyone shakes their heads at Ciel's inquiry. But I didn't say anyone, nature and everyone turned to each other, quietly shouldering each other.

"We're gonna win. Win at all costs. You're definitely gonna win! You can't lose unless you give up. No matter how many times you fall,

You'll never give up!

"Because I have to apologize to Lapis soon. I can't bring it!

"He said if we do it for real, we'll figure it out!

"Yes, yes. At times like this, you have to learn how easy Lapis is."

I remember the attitude of my floating master, nature and laughter leaked. And each takes the weapon and walks out of the room quietly. With each step taken, tension increases and instincts tell us that it is the strong enemy that is ahead of us from here. But we have no fear. Let me show you the power of a brave party.
