Part 3

(Theres no sign of spaceships in the vicinity. I think its safe to say weve escaped.)

Haah thats good to hear.

I was relieved hearing Merl-sans words, and was finally able to relax my shoulders.

But why were we ambushed, anyway?

(As I said before, they calculated the distance we traveled by warp from our path. Immediately after the warp is deactivated, the spaceship has no choice but to be in a vulnerable situation)

Its true, as Merl-san said, we were sitting in our seats when the warp was deactivated, and more importantly, the ambushers could just aim at us and attack.

(However, since there are several possible locations for us to release the warp besides the place where we were ambushed, the Dragonias must have been waiting in several units. Fortunately, thanks to that, the number of spaceships waiting in ambush was small)

It seemed that as a result of a combination of various luck, we were able to get through this safely.

I didnt expect to be attacked at that moment, but it was still a great experience to be able to battle in space.

I dont know what will happen next time we fight the Dragonias, but I think I will be able to move better.

As I was thinking about this, I suddenly had a strange feeling.

H-hmm? W-what is it?

Yuuya-kun? Whats wrong?

Iris-san, who noticed my strange reaction, called out to me.

However, I dont know what to say I feel strangely shivery.

Um I cant really describe it, but I feel like something is calling me.

Something?

Its the Sages sign.

Ouma-san?

Then Ouma-san, who had been sleeping at his own pace despite everything that had happened, only woke up at this point.

More importantly, what is Sage-sans sign?

When all of us were surprised by Ouma-sans words, he continued on, yawning unconcernedly.

Fuwah what? Didnt we go to the cave where the Sage rests before we came to space? Its just that I felt the same vibe as when I was there.

Could it be the sign of Sage-sans legacy?

Its true that at that time, it was written that the location of the legacy sealed on a certain planet in the universe can be found by approaching but is it really in this vicinity?

Then Ouma-san turned his gaze to Merl-san.

Little girl. Proceed in that direction.

Hey Ouma-san!?

What is it? Dont you ever wonder what the sages legacy is?

No, Im curious about that, but Im also curious about Merl-sans homeland

I said that, but Merl-san shook her head.

(Its okay, Yuuya-san. Although we were able to avoid the attack by the Dragonias, they will probably come after us soon. So, there is a risk that our current route we are taking to my homeland will be easily predicted. Therefore, Id like to change course to shift the time and distract the pursuers.)

I-I see

If Merl-san is willing to accept it, I am honestly interested in Sage-sans legacy.

The weapons and magic circuit alone are outrageous, but what in the world did he hide in space?

(By the way, were close to the sages sign, arent we?)

Youre right

Its not that far away. At the rate were going, we should arrive soon.

(I understand. Then please guide me there.)

Following Merl-sans words, Ouma-san and I worked together to lead the way in the direction of Sage-sans sign.

Eventually, a planet came into view.

Yuuya-sama?

Hes not a Holy, but hes a special person who can resist the Evil Lexia-dono may want to hide his existence from the outside world, but I think it should be announced to the Kings.

Orghis looked straight at Lexia and told her this.

Lexia also looked back at Orghis, but Lexia did not realize that she had forgotten to tell Orghis about something.

Of course, Lexia knew that the Evil had been destroyed, but soon afterward, she went to the Earth and witnessed a shocking event that made her forget about the Evil, and she forgot to inform Orghis that the Evil had been destroyed.

On top of that, when Orghis told her that she should tell the Kings about the greatness of Yuuya, Lexias enthusiasm was triggered.

As a result, Lexias reaction was different from what Orghis had imagined.

Right! Lets make the other Kings understand how amazing Yuuya-sama is!

Huh?

Orghis looked uncomfortable at Lexias reaction.

Lexia then tilted her head curiously.

Ara? Whats wrong?

N-no, um is that okay? For the Alceria Kingdom, he is like a final secret weapon, isnt he? Maybe he will be recruited by other countries

Yes if we publicize Yuuya-sama, there will be people who will approach him for his power. But more than that, I think everyone should understand that Yuuya-sama is amazing!

S-sigh

And besides, Yuuya-sama and I are engaged! I dont have to worry about him being taken away!

Youre not engaged to him.

What, Luna! Is it not good? Is it selfish of me to say so?

Youre too selfish.

Luna was taken aback by Lexias words. Mai also smiled bitterly at this side of Lexia.

It was supposed to be a serious consultation for Orghis, but in the end, it was decided that Lexia and the others would participate in the council in a rather sloppy manner.

Inside the Dragonia mothership, a Dragonia alien was running in a hurry.

When the Dragonia alien reached the room where Draco III was waiting, he hurriedly knocked on the door.

(Your Majesty! I have something to report to you immediately!)

(Come in.)

After receiving permission, the Draconia alien entered the room and immediately knelt down.

(What do you want?)

(Y-yes! The third unit has received orders from Your Majesty to capture the Amelians and their collaborators, but weve lost contact with one of the platoons)

(What? Whats going on?)

The Draconian alien was about to be crushed by the enormous pressure emanating from Draco III, but he continued desperately.

(I-it seems that all of them were wiped out in an engagement with the Amel aliens in question. We had received a report that they were going into battle, but communication from that point forward was cut off)

(We got hit in return, huh.)

Draco III let out a heavy sigh, and the Dragonia who reported it stiffened.

Draco III took no notice of the situation and opened his mouth.

(Good work. Go back now.)

(Y-yes!)

The Draconia bowed again and left the room.

Draco III was left alone, sitting deep in his chair.

(I guess Ive underestimated them. Even though Drade is out, the third unit cant handle it And this is in a space battle? I had thought that the special environment of the subspace was a major factor in the Drades defeat, but it seems that this was not the case. The Amelian collaborators must have excellent individual combat skills. Thats why they are so much better than my troops at fighting in space)

After pondering for a while, Draco III eventually came to a decision.

(A change of plans. Although we could not take the blueprints from the Amelian, we should destroy the planet Amel itself before the blueprint reaches them. It may take a little bit of our strength, but with our current power, we will definitely be able to destroy the planet Amel)

Unbeknownst to Yuuya and the others, Draco III had finally begun to make his move.
