The dragon is smart.
Not only domesticated species are clever. The premise does not change just because it is a wild dragon. On the contrary, he just gets more clever and gets better at using his own tricks.
However, apart from the intelligence of such flying dragons, there was one characteristic that was not well known, and that was that they were sensitive to magical power. Humans cannot use magical powers, so they don’t know, and demons use flying dragons recently, so that characteristic that has not been systematically understood is related to the birth of flying dragons.
Nowadays, they are treated as cumbersome monsters and are regarded as too insignificant, but they are beasts that inherit the blood of dragons, which can be said to be the ancestors of magic and magic, even if only slightly. Rather, it can be said that it is strange that he does not feel magical power.
The flying dragon could not use magic or apply magic. They just fear beings with magical powers from the realm of instinct.
Because of that, the dragon that had been hit by Eldmia’s enchanted fist was afraid of him.
It took less than ten punches for fear to turn into obedience, to follow orders as far as he could understand, and not to run away even if Eldmia let go, but that was enough for the dragon.
And while flying through the sky several times, the flying dragon realized that his judgment was correct.
Throwing a weapon to kill, exploding something to kill them all, suddenly leaping onto another drake and killing it yourself. The fact that there were more dead enemies than living enemies even though it was just flying came as a novel shock to the flying dragon.
No need to claw, no need to bump, no need to bite.
If you just fly, the scary human will take care of it.
And be safe.
It was the moment when the formation of trust, which is one of the key processes that Etis-L’s dragon pilots and knights learn through rapport with dragons over many years, was completed with just punching.
“Come on!”
As soon as the human voice was heard in the ears of the flying dragon, which had suddenly reached the point of liberation in a profound realization, the flying dragon, waiting for the human in a circle in the air, naturally followed the call.
◈
When I shouted at the flying dragon that was circling overhead like a crow looking for prey, it naturally turned its gaze towards me and started approaching me at high speed.
“Why are you listening so well...?”
To be honest, I thought I might be able to run away the moment I jumped off his back and attacked another flying dragon... But
what about running away, I’m rather dumbfounded because people who don’t know what I’m talking about think of it as a pet I’ve raised for 10 years.
Well... I killed the flying dragon I was riding with the mindset that good is good, and after transferring, the sky looked clean. Another flying dragon unit flying from the inner castle came into view, but once the army advanced and entered the outer castle, there would be no problem.
The demons never fixed a strong army to defend a single city. They make it move as much as possible and benefit from it, and if something goes wrong at the base, they return to the base and aim for the rear while the defending troops hold out. Therefore, the siege against the Demon King’s army begins after breaking through the outer castle with a high probability.
The reason why the human race was able to respond to such absurd things that the human race couldn’t even dare was because they were demons.
It was possible because of the use of magic, and the application of gates in a far more diverse way than the Humans based on such magic. Even in most cases, the strength of the individual is superior to that of the human race, so there are relatively few moving troops and supplies, but the firepower is rather excellent.
How much damage was done to that ridiculous mobility in the early days of the war? In a way, it was a natural procedure for the command post, which had been close to observing from the rear, to become a little closer to the battlefield and to give orders faster even by a minute or a second. At first, there were many opinions that the command post was exposed to danger as a result, but this is a counterargument that does not exist now. When it comes to dealing with demons, the danger is the same no matter where the command post is.
However, it was clear that the enemies would not be able to respond properly as this attack went in a direction no one expected. And Alt had no intention of wasting the enormous gains he had gained from this.
“Contact the cities in the rear and tell them to move their troops. Report the situation to the royal family. Maybe this time, we can push the front line a bit, not just Levien.”
The achievements that Eldmia has made are enormous.
He penetrated the outer city alone and even the enemy’s flying dragon unit, which attempted bombing, took a counterattack and suffered few casualties. Thinking that it would be a siege unprecedented in the history of the kingdom, Alt moved his gaze to the Marquis of Levien, who was calmly examining the map of the battlefield, leaving behind his subordinates leaving the command post to carry out his orders.
“Did you expect this?”
I couldn’t help but ask. Because it was a situation that made no sense.
If a human could do such a thing even in a siege with demons, it goes without saying in a war between humans. In the future, if the royal family and nobles, led by the Margrave of Levien, attack other countries, even Alt could not sense how quickly and quickly the conquest would take place.
There are simply more strong people than you think. However, those who are strong in the form of smashing the existing common sense like that are a minority. Even Eldmia had just become an adult, so there was plenty of room for further growth.
‘That’ is a strategic weapon. A strategic weapon that would inevitably cause trouble when held by a single aristocrat. If the Margrave of Levien had expected all of this, Alt was thinking of submitting a report with words of warning to the royal family.
“You mean breaking through the outer castle without taking any damage? No. I didn’t think of it at all.”
However, the aristocratic girl, who was good at hiding her feelings, remained ignorant. Contrary to his calm tone, his eyes are alive. However, there was no way to know if that was the result of the commander who was satisfied with the result as expected, or the joy of a person who was avenging the past for losing his family and losing his territory.
What does today’s battle mean to a girl who almost lost her family at a young age?
The incident at the time when they were pushed into a quick attack because they did not know about the tactics of the demons was a disgraceful and painful past for the kingdom. This time, since I pushed the enemies with a quick attack from this side, maybe I was feeling a sense of accomplishment that I had achieved my revenge.
“We’ve been together for a long time, but I can’t figure it out at all.”
Looking at the smiling Marquis Levien at the end of his speech, Alt thought.
Somehow, it seems like he is seeing himself when Lange bursts into both the incident and the achievement.
