Volume 1 Chapter 49 The King Tries to Bring Back With All His Might but Fails
A few days after Zeke repelled the hero, Makhen.
Without learning his lesson, the King was heading towards the Beastman Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, please turn back. We don't have the time or personnel for this...!"
Uncharacteristically for a yes-man, the Prime Minister offered a calm opinion.
Currently, the citizens of the royal capital had been evacuated to nearby towns.
However, the magic beasts continued to attack the towns across the kingdom.
If this situation persisted, the kingdom's lands could be overrun by magic beasts, possibly leading to their total destruction.
"Shut up!"
The King turned crimson and struck the Prime Minister's head with his cane.
"If we bring back Zeke, everything will be solved! Yes, he is the cause of this whole situation! Capture him, subdue the magic beasts, and punish him as he deserves...!"
This was a complete shift of blame.
Though it was the King who had disregarded the beast veterinarian and unjustly exiled him, leading to this mess....
After a moment.
The king and his party once again arrived at the border town of Sakutz.
"This time I've brought 3 times as many knights as last time! I'm sure he'll surrender!"
And then, it happened.
"Y-Your Majesty...! "
"What...? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The king and his knights were shocked.
"It's a fire dragon...!!!"
A fire dragon is a dragon that is one of the strongest among all dragon species.
A monster of rank S that excels at powerful fire breath.
"Your Majesty! Fire dragons, 1...2...I can't count them all! "
"What's going on?!"
When the fire dragons came up to the sky above the kings, they said something like this.
'Go home, you stupid kings!'
"Did you talkkkk?!"
Magic beasts are basically creatures that don't talk.
However, they had gained the ability to speak through Zeke's power.
'Don't bother big bro!'
'You're planning to take Mister Zeke back, huh? Not on my watch!'
Those present here were originally wyverns.
After receiving Zeke's healing, they evolved their existence.
The healing of the Perfect Healer not only had the power to heal but also boosted the abilities of magic beasts.
As a result, the wyverns, which should have had low attack power, evolved into high-damage S-rank monsters.
"K-Knights! Kill those dragons!"
However, not a single knight obeyed the king's command.
"I-I can't take it anymore! I'm done!"
One of the knights cried out pitifully and turned to flee.
"W-Wait! Don't go! Where are you heading!?"
The king tried to stop them, but one knight after another kept escaping.
"I can't endure this harsh working environment!"
"It's tough enough already, and now we have to deal with fire dragons? You've got to be kidding!"
"If you want to go to war with the Beastman nation, go ahead and do it yourself, you stupid king!"
Whoosh...!
And the knights ran away.
"You idiots! Hey! Leave those who are running away! Defeat the fire dragon and bring back Zeke!"
'Guys! Protect Sir Zeke! Breath... Fire!'
A flock of fire dragons spit flames from the sky above the kings.
The knights' armor and sword melt into a pulp like candy, and their skin is burned.
"Ugyaaaaaaaah!" "Hiiiiiiiiii!" "No way no way no way no way!"
More knights flee, leaving the king behind.
"You idiot! What kind of thinking is it to run away and leave me behind? Go back! Fight, you useless people!"
But it is inevitable that the knight will flee.
They've probably never faced so many S-rank fire dragons before.
The knights scattered one by one, and finally even the king fled.
'Don't ever step over our territory again!'
'Take that! Fire!'
Whoosh...!
The king desperately tries to escape from the fire dragon's breath.
"Damn it! Damn it! Zeke! Damn it! You think you're something just because I backed down! Damn it!"
However, as the dragon's fire burns the king's rear, he runs away with a pathetic cry.
"Eeek! It's hot!!!"
...The king then leads the knights in retreat.
Due to this incident, many knights from the kingdom fled.
He would later regret not dedicating his strength to protect his own country rather than engaging in such meaningless acts.
