Heavenly Magician
Chapter 6: Dragon Attack

We were both now behind the inn. I purposely went to the back of the inn because I wanted to try one of the special magic I learned from the book yesterday.

"Before that." I said.

"Ohh. Alright."

I called Miku to see her memories of the next Kingdom we would come to using the [Memory] spell.

He nervously advanced towards me, I saw his face and ears blushing.

But I didn't care about her flushed face, without a second thought I grabbed her hands and brought my forehead closer to her forehead to look at her memories

"[Memory]"

Upon seeing my destination, I let go of my hands and saw Miku's face growing red, it made me blush as well. I tried to hold him.

After I saw my destination from My Memory, I stood up, straightened my hands forward and cast a spell.

"[Gate]"

The instant a gate appeared before me, it made me a little surprised but I regained my composure and looked at Miku and asked.

"Am I just?"

"Ohhh. Yes. Incredibly, you can actually use a long-lost spell, Shin."

I stared at the gate, fumbled into it and slightly put my head in, and it was true, I was already somewhere else.

Miku who was following me from behind was quickly stunned when she saw the changing surroundings.

➖➖➖➖➖

I opened my map and found out that we were in a town east of the Royal Freedom capital.

Freedom is a Kingdom located in the Eastern Continent and is one of the kingdoms bordering the Allent Kingdom.

"It's really a place I've been to before." Miku said in a stunned tone.

When we were satisfied looking around. We decided to walk towards the nearest city on the map. After walking for about ten minutes, we finally reached the nearest town.

Not to be welcomed by a peaceful city, but what we saw instead.

"What's going on here. Why is this city falling apart?"

"Why the city?"

Miku and I were both shocked when they saw the city in front of us that had been destroyed, even the fire seemed to have become a sight here.

What's really going on here. This city is no longer shaped, where all the inhabitants go, are they all safe? I have to find someone.

We spent a few minutes just staring at the city. However, after we came to our senses, we decided to look for someone who could still be questioned.

After running for a while. We finally saw a man in his forties with a little boy next to him looking for something behind a burning house.

I walked up to him, but when he realized my whereabouts he reflexively retreated backwards while picking up the knife that was on his waist.

"Are you a robber?" Ask him with trembling.

"I-I'm not a robber. I'm just a wanderer who happens to pass by here. I just wanted to ask, what has happened in this city?"

He who did not feel any hostility from me finally decided to lower his weapon.

"This town just got attacked by a dragon."

"In the Serang naga?"

I was shocked when I heard the man's words. But the truth that shocked me was not because this city was attacked, but because in this world there was a dragon. It makes me think of any animal that actually exists in this world.

"If this city is attacked by dragons. What happened to the people."

"The inhabitants of this city have been evacuated to the nearest village or town from here."

When I heard the man's statement. I also breathed a sigh of relief. But now the problem is why the dragon attacked the city.

"My. Do dragons usually attack a village or a city?"

"That is usually rare or almost never the case, dragons usually only stay on their island and will not interfere with human territory."

"Where is the island?"

"In the south the Kingdom of Strom."

I know south of Strom it's pretty far from here. Butwhy.

When I thought about that. I remembered that I didn't see a single Knight here.

"Knight. Where's the Royal Knight?"

"The Knights have already been pulled back to the capital."

Then, it doesn't mean that the dragon has been defeated. But they could lose.

"If the Knights have been recalled. Does that mean they've already managed to kill his dragon."

The man paused for a moment and spoke to me again.

"No. They didn't manage to kill him, the dragon was currently on top of a mountain south of this city, we don't know why the dragon was there."

What the fuck. Are they in a ceasefire.

I decided to go back to asking the man who was still contemplating his burning house.

"Has the Kingdom decided on its next course of action?"

"Right now the Kingdom is just trying to survive while waiting for help from the neighboring Kingdom, but that help will come in a few days."

A few days will only make the situation worse. That's not the right choice.

"My. Do you know where the capital of this Kingdom is?"

Miku who was trying to calm the crying daughter quickly responded to my words.

"Well, I know. I've been there before?"

that's nice.

"In that case, may I see your memory return?"

"Y-Well sure. But what are you going there for?"

"I plan to offer them help."

"Are you planning to fight that dragon. But do you know how powerful a dragon is, a young dragon alone needs dozens of Knights to kill it. Not to mention the casualties that will fall from the Knights." Miku protested at my plan.

"I knew. That's why I'm offering to help, I don't want to see more victims falling by the dragon's attack."

Miku's previously shocked face now became anxious, I could feel what she was worried about.

"You don't have to worry. I must be fine, you've seen my strength too, right, so don't worry."

"Well, if that's your decision."

Got his approval. I began to hold both of his hands and put my forehead onto his forehead again to read his memories of the Royal capital.

After getting the picture, I instantly cast the spell [Gate].

"Would you also go with us to the capital?" I asked that man.

"No-no. Thank you, I still have to find some of my stuff left here."

"All right then. Take care of yourself."

Miku and I waved our hands at the man and his daughter.

We arrived at the capital of the Kingdom of Freedom. We both looked around the city, it was a beautiful city, a well-organized building. But strangely, I saw the anxious faces of the inhabitants.

Dragon terror scares them huh.

After our breath was exhausted from running, we finally found two Knights on patrol, without a second thought we immediately approached the two Knights.

"Are we able to meet this King of the Kingdom?"

Those who were shocked instantly took out their swords and pointed at me.

"Who are y'all. Why do you want to meet His Majesty?"

It seems my timing is not right.

"I-I am a wanderer and this woman is adal_"

Shortly before I finished my sentence to introduce Miku to them, Miku directly introduced herself.

"My name is Miku Urnest Allent. First princess of Allent Kingdom."

Graceful as always.

"The Royal Princess of Allent?"

The two Knights who heard the sudden introduction from Miku immediately knelt before him to apologize.

"Pardon our presumption, Princess."

It seems that the relationship of the Allent Kingdom with the Freedom Kingdom is quite good huh, to the point that their Knights have great respect for the Princess of the neighboring Kingdom.

"It's okay. Introduce him this is my future fiancee. His name is Tatsuya Shin."

Remember Miku. We're just candidates, not official fiancees.

They did not believe what they heard, they immediately knelt before me.

"No need to apologize. It wasn't your fault."

The Knights who were panicking now started to calm down somewhat after hearing the words from me. They then very carefully asked back to Miku.

"If you don't mind, we'd like to ask. Any business has the Princess of the Allent Kingdom come to our Kingdom?"

"As Shin said earlier, is it possible for us to meet the King?"

The two of them looked at each other in confusion at Miku's words.

"What is the Princess doing with the King?"

"I've heard the news about dragons attacking some cities. I, or rather my future fiancee, would like to offer help to kill the dragon to the King."

"Offer help?"

The two of them were surprised by Miku's statement and immediately looked at me with a suspicious look.

"I-I'm sorry for our sassness, but what can the Princess' fiancee do to help us?"

I've guessed. That is for sure, the distance between my body's proportions and my strength is too far.

"Not to worry. Shin could definitely kill that dragon."

Those two Knights who were initially suspicious of me finally started to trust me after the neighboring Royal Princess herself said so.

"If that's what the Princess wants. We'll guide you both to meet the King."

"Thank you."

We were walking through the hallway to the King's audience room.

As long as we walked from the palace gate all the way inside, the Knights kept staring at us, not knowing what they thought of us with such gazes.

Finally we arrived at a room that was quite large, many gold wall hangings that adorned every corner of the room.

In the middle of the room was also sitting a male in his thirties, beside him stood a man who I thought he must be his Prime Minister.

The knight who guided us to the palace now knelt before the King and said.

"Your Majesty. Forgive me for interrupting your time, but we brought you an important guest."

"Who are they? Wait a minute, I seem to know that girl."

The King's face changed as he looked at us or rather looked at Miku. Miku who was aware of the King's confusion immediately reintroduced herself.

"We haven't seen His Majesty in a long time. Looks like I need to introduce myself again, Introduce my name Miku Urnest Allent, the first Princess of Allent Kingdom."

"Oh yes. I remember, you're Miku right?"

Yes reasonable. He has also introduced himself, of course you will know, King.

"It seems you still know me, and please no longer treat me like a child." Miku's face turned sullen as she said that.

"sorry. So what brings you here?"

Wah-wah. It can be serious for parents too.

Miku could only sigh, after which her breathing began to stabilize. He looked back at the king.

"The purpose of my coming here is to give you help in the face of the dragon."

"Are you serious about what you say?"

".........."

Not in the opinion of the response from Miku, the King decided to ask back.

"I saw you come here alone with that person beside you, so I asked you, what kind of help can you give me?"

He said that while straightening his index finger towards me.

"Oh yeah. Yeah, I seem to have forgotten to introduce her, her name is Tatsuya Shin and she's my future fiance."

"Hehh. My little miku already has a potential fiancee."

I don't know why I felt like I heard that disgusting tone from him earlier.

"Yes. That's how she's my future fiancee and it's not me who's going to give her a hand, but her."

"What help can your fiancee Miku give?"

"If it's not me who will explain it, but he will explain, please Shin."

After getting the cue from Miku. I also took a step forward to explain.

"alright. First, as introduced by the Princess. My name is Tatsuya Shin. I'll give you help to face the dragon."

"If you could tell, what kind of help would you give?"

"I only ask Your Majesty to allow me to go to the mountain where the dragon rests, after that let me take care of the rest."

"just that? But before that, are you sure you can fight that dragon. We tried to fight it and ended up in failure. Now are you sure you're fighting the two dragons alone?"

"Yes. It's not a big deal for me."

My nadam is arrogant too.

The king was a little confused, but I ignored him. After all I am quite confident in the power that the Gods of the Universe gave me.

"Well, if that's all you ask. If you are confident that you can kill that dragon then I will allow you to go to that mountain, but I will also assign some Knights to accompany you."

"alright. But before that, I want to ask for some time to rest. My body is exhausted."

"That's no problem. Prime Minister, prepare a room for the two of them!"

"B-well Your Majesty. I'll prepare."

The command sentence from the King made Miku's face flushed red afterwards. I initially thought about what caused her face to turn red, but moments later I realized something.

Wait-wait. Did he say to both of us. Does that mean I'll rest with Miku in one room. That's too soon for me. But I can't seem to turn it down because Miku looks happy.

I let out a long sigh and thanked the King for preparing the room for me and Miku. I also promised that tomorrow I would go to that mountain to kill the dragon.
