Chapter 326 Strongest Sage, Heads to the Capital



"Let's hurry . This period where the demon has just been resurrected is our best chance at defeating it . "


"Got it!"


"Yes! . . . We're heading in that direction, right?"


Ruli pointed at the direction where the mana flowed in .


Identifying directions from within roughened up Dragon Veins is supposed to be quite a task . . . But she handled that nicely .


"Yeah . You've got the general direction covered . . . and now I'll go check its exact location . "


I probe Zadokilgias's location from Dragon Veins' flow .


Then . . . I managed to pinpoint it .


"Zadokilgias is over there . In the direction of the capital . "


The demon's mana reaction is located further ahead of the capital .


Might as well contact the king and the principal since it's along the way anyway .


Still quite far, but it shouldn't take too long with our legs .


"Err . . . Would you like to ride on my back since we're in a hurry and all?"

Iris flaps her arms around while still in her human form .


That's the fastest method for sure, but . . . .


"Nah, we'll walk there . The period after its resurrection may be the best time to defeat this demon, but one or two days won't make a difference . . . Iris, preserve your power . "


"I got it!"


Iris will be our trump card for this fight .


Since her [Dragon Breath] boasts firepower that can be dealt just with a difference in skill .


How to make best use of that is the point of the upcoming fight .


Thanks to the continued treatment, Iris's magic circuits have stabilized considerably .


One shot of [Dragon Breath] should be no problem to her .


However . . . Flying in her dragon form would put unnecessary burdens on her recovering magic circuits .


We should just walk the walk if it would lessen that load .

Evening of that day .


We arrived at the Second Academy without issues .


There were no abnormal mana movements caused by demons or anything either .


"Are we gonna go straight toward the demon?"


Alma asked as we reached the capital .


Passing through the capital to head straight to Zadokilgias's location is faster indeed .


However . . .


"No . Let's gather some info first . "


Zadokilgias's body gets stronger over time .


However, mere one or two days won't make that much difference .


We'd be better off gathering more information within that time frame .


Information about geographical features and neighboring towns near where the demon is could influence the fight .


The royal castle will prioritize matters concerning demons after all, might as well ask away .


And we've got Grevil at the Second Academy .


"Let's head back to the Second Academy for now . "


Contacting royal castle is faster through Second Academy .


The principal will get us through back passage instead of the normal annoying procedures .


I got connected to comm magic while walking .


The caller was not me .


This mana . . . it's Grevil .


『What's the matter, Grevil?』


『I felt demonic mana mixed in the Dragon Veins while I was making an observation at Second Academy . Is that also why Mathias-san has come back?』


Looks like he's already noticed the problem this time .


Perhaps he has information I don't have considering how close the capital is to the demon's location .


『Yeah . . . How's the situation? Any incident taking place?』


『I don't see anything amiss since the time I detected the demonic mana . However . . . This demon is most likely quite strong despite its mana . Please be careful . 』


『Oh right, are you not aware of Zadokilgias then, Grevil . 』


I probably took care of Zadokilgias long before Grevil was born .


Yet the demon's mana is abnormal enough for him to be wary of its strength .


『Zadokilgias . . . Do you mean the [Demon of Destruction]?』


『Yeah . It's quite an old demon specializing in skillset . 』


『I know the name at least . . . I've been keeping my observation for any suspicious trends after that one time . . . But there has been absolutely nothing in the Dragon Veins since . 』


I see .


At least it doesn't seem like there's a large-scale magic that makes use of Dragon Veins .


Zadokilgias isn't the type that heavily relies on the scale of magic to begin with though .


『Can you inform the principal that we'll be arriving at Second Academy?』


『Yes . I shall ask the royal castle to gather information pertaining known spots of demons . 』


On the move already huh . Nice footwork .


Instating Grevil as Second Academy's instructor was really a correct choice .


I made my way to the Second Academy's principal room while thinking that .
