The Coralde company’s horse carriage was stationed a distance from the battlefield . The horses ran at full speed, until they reached a cliff far from Floural Hill .

“…what the h.e.l.l is that…?”

Kristoff’s comment represented the thoughts of all present . All of them backed away after seeing the gigantic slime . But that was not the only thing Kristoff feared . The scouting skills he had honed did not work at all on the slime . It was an incredibly large magic beast, and he couldn’t detect it at all .

Even if it was underground, normally it was impossible to not be able to detect any trace . If such a creature attacked the town, no one could detect it and it would be devastated .

“This can’t be happening…”

One of the coachmen spoke . This was something everyone thought .

A huge slime spanning several kilometers . Slimes were magic beasts easily defeated as long as their core was destroyed . Their ability to hide and melt anything could be troublesome, but, as long as one was careful about them, they were easily defeated . If they were of normal size that is .

Normal slimes could become as large as an adult human being at most . They weren’t of such abnormal size . Is there any human being who could reach the core of such a ma.s.sive creature, and destroy it?

No weapon could pierce that viscous body . Even if they used magic, how powerful did the spell have to be? Could a human being cast it? Could anyone penetrate the slime’s body and destroy the core?

“I see…we would be just in the way, that’s for sure…”

Dietrich clenched his fists . No matter how much he thought, he couldn’t come up with any way to defeat that slime . The only available options were to flee or to die .

There was no weapon they could use . He couldn’t think of any battle strategy, no past experience he could use, no secret plan…

“…powerless . ”

The feelings of frustration were shared by everyone else too .

The twin wolves kept falling through the air . They heard Roa screaming, but they were in very high spirits .

They would fight alongside Roa and Grandpa Gry . And they could use magic without limits . For the twins it was an ideal situation, something they hoped would happen for the longest time .

The slime’s tentacles targeted them . They were sticky and viscous, but if those ma.s.sive limbs struck, not even the twins would be unscathed . If the tentacles wrapped around them, their skin and flesh would surely melt .

The twins, their eyes on the tentacles, leaned on each other’s back, with Roa in the center, then powerfully roared in unison .

Their voices melted in the air: at the same time, their magic power spread and the slime’s tentacles stopped .

On the blue magic wolf’s side, the tentacles froze . On the red magic wolf’s side, the tentacles burned to ashes . The magic shockwave reached the slime itself, freezing and scorching its surface .

“It’s your fault if I’m too loud, Grandpa Gry!!”

Roa knew about the plan, so he was ready to fall from the sky, but because of the different timing he wasn’t fully ready, so tears filled his eyes . Grandpa Gry completely ignored his words and looked at the slime’s full silhouette from above .

Grandpa Gry could hear the “voice” of someone else present in the area .

Kill……kill……kill… . .

The oppressively sticky, heavy voice seemed to come from the depths of the earth and filled the area with evil intent .

The gryphon looked down on the slime…both figuratively and literally, from high in the sky, with a cold gaze .

Vibrations . Something different from the previous tremors violently shook the air .

Roa, the servant beasts, even the distant coachmen and Nostalgia felt it through their whole bodies . The slime sunk into the ground, as if it was being absorbed by it . That was the result of Grandpa Gry’s large-scale earth magic .

Floural Hill, over the several kilometers it spanned, the whole plain was compressed and sunk by earth magic, changing the terrain into a huge slab of rock . Turning into rock made it impossible for the slime to melt it easily, preventing it from fleeing underground .

Grandpa Gry cast earth magic again, controlling the fissures created by the slime to refill immediately .

Before the vibrations through the atmosphere could completely disappear, a strong wind started blowing .

It was a whirlwind of ma.s.sive proportions . In its center, however, no wind blew, so the surroundings were not affected in any way . It was a circular wall of wind, circling the entire Floural Hill .  

Grandpa Gry’s Wind Wall .

It was so large, however, that it wasn’t as minutely controlled as the smaller ones . It was nothing but an incredibly large tornado, which did not let anything through it . The wind barrier was visible because of the dust it raised, making it impossible to see inside from outside .

The ground turned into hard rock and the Wind Wall, together they formed a “cage” to trap the gigantic slime .

Grandpa Gry’s voice was vibrant .

The blue fur magic wolf landed on a frozen part of the slime’s body . It jumped as soon as it landed, to reduce the momentum, so that Roa -hugging its back tightly- wouldn’t feel the shock of the impact . It also shook Roa from its back, to prevent the remaining momentum from affecting him .

Not too far from them, the red fur magic wolf landed on a scorched part of the slime’s body . Bounced away by the slime’s still elastic body under the scorched part, it jumped again, among ashes charred black . It caught Roa on the way and bounced him back towards the blue wolf .

“Waahh!!”

Treated like a baseball, Roa’s head started spinning . The twins made sure not to let Roa land on the slime, because it would make it impossible for him to move afterward . The frozen slime surface was hard, so if Roa fell on it he would die or at least suffer grave wounds .

Under the scorched part the slime’s body was still burning, so if Roa fell there he would be absorbed and melted .

The only ones capable of standing on the slime’s elastic and viscous body, capable of melting anything it touched, were the magic wolf twins, by freezing or burning it .

The blue magic wolf caught Roa on its back again and started running on the slime .

“Woof woof♪”
