"Apostle" is the general term for the twelve creatures in this world that are beyond common knowledge. The power of each Apostle is so great. According to the legend, "apostles" can even change the surrounding surface environment through their own abilities, so apostles are a very threatening and dangerous existence for human beings.
Among the twelve apostles today, the one recognized as the most powerful is Youlman, who has the name "Infinity". However, just in this morning, when Youlman's sister,Nojax, opened the door to his room, but she only found a note on the table.
- Go away, the apostles! I quit being such an apostle! I'm going to find a young lady to be my wife!!! --
. 。。。。。
It was the golden autumn when a legendary cataclysmic magical beast appeared in the snowy plains north of the empire. The so-called cataclysmic magical beast is the most dangerous category in the existing magical beast classification. Once the cataclysmic magical beast has passed through, none of the places are full of life, just full of devastation.
Although this beast is still far away from the city, but for the future safety of the people, the Empire had to send troops to encircle and suppress this once-in-a-thousand-year cataclysmic beast - "Ice Dragon". In this army sent by the Empire, there was the Empire's ace magician , known as the "Flame Witch", Kerr Charlotte, who once turned the tide of battle with his own strength.
At this time, everyone on the snowy plains was tense and on standby, waiting for the moment to attack Ice Dragon. However, in this group of soldiers who were so nervous that their palms were full of sweat, there was such a not very tall man, standing alone on the side of the snow. And his army's special helmet underneath also came a lewd laughter from time to time. Although no one may believe it, this person is the strongest apostle ,"Youlman".
"Hey hey hey ~ ~ ~ I really want to pinch that soft face of the caretaker lady from the association. "
While everyone around him was sweating nervously, Youlman was wiping the drool that was running down his face while letting out a lewd laugh. But fortunately the helmet blocked his face, otherwise he might have been dragged out for shaking the army's heart.
But why on earth would the strongest apostle blend into the human empire's army? It wasn’t because of the money!
First of all, regardless of whether you are the strongest apostle, in today's society ,do not look forward to marrying a wife if you don’t have money. Not to mention whether the girl looks up to you or not, having a meal is simply going to cost a lot of gold, plus buy other things with money, which means that once you go out with someone, what you have spent would definitely cover a month's salary of you like the common people. However, when Youlman began to realize that money is no longer money on earth today, the gold he brought out was not much left. But when he was worried, he saw the draft notice on the city wall. And the purpose of this draft is to hunt Ice Dragon that appeared in the snowy plains. Because of the location of the snowy plains, the Empire's large forces could not arrive in time. Therefore, they had to start a temporary recruitment in the local area. As long as you pass the medical examination and pass the test, you can join. Although the initial pay was not too much, due to the lack of manpower later, so the pay has been increased to three thousand gold coins per person, plus the opportunity to transfer to the official army with a very strict process of selection. Youlman thought that "I really don’t expect that a broken dragon in the human world is so valuable ~ ~ After taking the money should I try to go on a date with the lady of the association? Maybe~~~ Goo Hey Hey~~(¯hostivation¯)"
Just when Youlman was immersing in his peachy fantasy, the ground originally covered by snow had turned red, only to see a huge ball of flame wrapped in lava smashing straight into the huge Ice Dragon perched on the snowy plains, and the heat of the flame instantly melted the thick snow on the ground, and even the sky was dyed red at that moment.
『This is Lord Kagome's attack signal! The whole army began to assault!
All the people in the army were stunned in spirit and drew their weapons to follow the flames and rushed towards the direction of Ice Dragon. The original plan was to start an uninterrupted attack on the injured Ice Dragon the moment the flame hit it. But no one expected that the flame that could dye the sky and the earth red would turn into a puff of white smoke and dissipate into the air the moment it touched Ice Dragon.
『This can't be!
The soldiers in the lead immediately froze at the sight of this scene, while many of those recruited through temporary conscription immediately panicked. You should know that just now that blow was "Lava Blast", one of the highest level of fire magic .
However, Ice Dragon cannot be merciful. The soldiers have not reacted when Ice Dragon immediately spit something out from its mouth, which can be enough to make the earth is frozen up the cold air. A sudden change in the weather, the original calm snowfield suddenly rolled up a fierce snowstorm, then the countless soldiers, as the center of Ice Dragon, were frozen in place into ice. And the next second, only to see Ice Dragon’s a sweeping tail, these ice will all be shattered on the ground.
『Oh, is this the power of calamitous magical beast?』
『It's impossible to win! Even the Flame Witch can't possibly defeat the legendary Ice Dragon! Run away!''
Faced with such a disparity in power from opponents,, the surviving soldiers dropped their weapons and chose to run away without any hesitation.
But even so, , the one known as the Fiery Witch, was still at the front line fighting the Ice Dragon to the death.
From a distance, the petite figure of Kagome and the small hill-like Ice Dragon formed a stark contrast. However, people are surprised that the aura emitted by Kagome’s body at this time is not inferior to that of Ice Dragon at all. The flame-like long red hair is set off by the magic power as if to burn up the heaven and earth, and the heroic aura emanating from her eyebrows is like that of the legendary Valkyrie.
『Please the fire that burns heaven and earth turns into a sharp sword in my hand! Sword of Red Flame! With the chanting of the incantation, a fiery red light once again dyed the entire white snowfield red, and a huge sword burning with fire immediately slashed towards the head of Ice Dragon. However, Ice Dragon, its body composed of countless ice, unharmed, received all the power of this sword. On the contrary, the magic sword with burning fire gradually turned into white smoke and disappeared in the air.
At this time countless beads of sweat gradually froze on the fair cheeks of Kagome. And the hair color that was originally as fiery red as the flames also gradually began to cover the white frost now.
Despite of great reluctance, the gap in power is so disparate that the "red hot sword" ,such a super-class magic, has released, but it cannot cause any damage to Ice Dragon in front of you.
Kagome did not panic when she saw this, quickly formulated the most effective plan in her mind instead.
"Now we can only delay Ice Dragon so that the rest of the people can escape, which we can at least inform the people in the city to evacuate."
While thinking this plan, she immediately gave an order loudly:
'Listen up, I will cover here, and all of you retreat immediately!
However, the only thing that responded to Kagome's voice amidst the swirling snow was the whistling wind and the low roar of Ice Dragon in front of her. The army of 5,000 men was now completely gone, a large portion of the men had been frozen into ice, while the few remaining soldiers had chosen to flee in fear.
『You've chosen to run away without me telling you? In that case, I'll buy you some more time. 。。。。』
Seeing that Kagome closed her eyes and gathered all her magic power into her body, the outside of Kagome's body began to burn with a blazing fire, and the temperature of her own body began to gradually rise. This is as an ace magician now the only thing you can do, gathering more than conventional attributes of magic to detonate all around. In this case, even if Kagome can not kill Ice Dragon that can at least delay it for a while, so that the public will have more adequate time to take refuge.
But this kind of magic is very dangerous, it is possible that even the caster itself will be blown to pieces. So Kagome hesitated, hesitating at the last moment. Even if she had made up her mind she still did not want to die, because she still had an unfulfilled wish.
"You're so cute. Why do you want to die so badly?"
Just then an unlikely voice came into Kagome's ears. Kagome immediately opened her eyes in panic, only to see a man in armor of the Imperial Army standing in the middle of herself and Ice Dragon.
"Why is there someone else here?"
Kagome looked at the young man in front of her and said coldly. Why didn't he flee and cherish the time she had managed to buy for your escape? I was thinking of going on a date with a pretty girl for 3,000 gold coins, but I was upset because I did not know who I would date more successfully. So I found out that everyone around me was gone.
『Are you an idiot? At a time like this, shouldn't you be thinking about how to survive?
Kagome heard the man's frivolous words and became angry. For this reason, her magic power that she had managed to gather just dissipated. The moment the magic power was dispersed, Ice Dragon, which was on guard and in a defensive posture, spat out a cold air that was enough to freeze the flames that Kagome had made before.
And Kagome's consciousness began to fade away because the magic power gathered just now consumed her too much mental energy. She could only close her eyes in the darkness and wait for the moment of death.
However,
nothing happened.
When Kagome reluctantly opened her sapphire eyes again, a thing that was absolutely impossible in human perception appeared in front of her eyes.
The idiot who was looking for a date was using one hand to viciously press the Ice Dragon's upper jaw, and the huge Ice Dragon was lying on the ground with his mouth pressed, struggling. The cold air just now seemed to be swallowed into the Ice Dragon's stomach.
『This is a dream, right...』
Kagome looked at Ice Dragon that was struggling desperately in the man's hands. At this moment, she couldn't tell if what she saw now was the reality or a dream anymore. The most powerful magic, known as the super class among all the magics, did not work. Worst of all, the army of 5,000 people was easily defeated, and she was ready to use her life as a bet to delay this catastrophe.
But.
Why! Why!!!
Why could this man actually hold down this disastrous magical beast with just one hand? Why is such a powerful Ice Dragon being played with by this man like a lizard at this moment?
"I saved your life. Why don't you consider going out with me at your own expense?"
The man in front of her was holding the struggling Ice Dragon while smiling and looking back at Kagome who has already become unconscious .
『Why does this guy have all this stuff in his mind?』 The last memory that remained in her mind was the man pressing Ice Dragon's hand suddenly gave birth to a very complex red magic array, a category that Kagome had never seen before, the complexity of which was more than a notch higher than any of the current high-level magic. And the words engraved on this magic array were also like nothing Kagome had ever seen before.
At the end of the memory, red and purple flames erupted from the magic formation, covering Ice Dragon's entire body in less than a second. And Ice Dragon that could have frozen all the flames actually struggled in this red-purple flame. Its body, which could not even be cleaved by the sword of red flame, was slowly melting. Then just a blink of an eye, Ice Dragon has been burned down to a crystalline emitting a cold light left.
