I Became a Servant the Dragons Are Obsessed With

457 – Unusual movement

“Can you hear me…? ?! Breeder? Are you safe-!?!?”

A woman’s voice echoes from the black dragon’s body.

The matter was so urgent that even though it was late, an extremely angry voice was heard first.

ㅡSssuseut… !

At the same time, the image of a woman comes to mind.

A dragon race with impressive blue hair and large horns.

She calls my name with her green eyes full of anxiety.

“Shu, Schnelia… … !?”

“”Kyo, principal-!?!?!?””

We could immediately tell who was contacting us just by hearing the voice.

“Ah..! Breeder? You’re safe. I’m so glad… … ! Being able to see everyone’s safe faces… … . Ah, thank goodness… … .」

Schnelia came out and looked at everyone and let out a sigh of relief.

It was like the gaze of a mother worried about her children who had been put out in the water.

“Hey, Schnelia? Calm down and talk slowly. What does that mean? And suddenly at this late hour… … ?”

“Hehe.. I’m glad you don’t know anything, but… … . After all, I have to explain, right? But before that, let me just check again. Nothing really happened there, right?”

She checks everyone’s faces again.

Schnelia is slowly counting.

It seemed strange that everyone was gathered together at this time.

“ah? What happened to the Academy? Your complexion looks very bad… … ?”

“Yes, a lot happened. How should I explain this… … .」

Her contact was so sudden.

How can you keep in touch this late in the morning?

Schnelia looked somewhat exhausted.

His relaxed tone of voice was tinged with nervousness, and his appearance, which had always been full of dignity and culture, was gone, his hair a lot tousled and his eyes showing anxiety.

Also, I could hardly continue talking.

His expression is stiff, as if he was greatly shocked.

A face that is reluctant to even mention it.

She bites her lip and takes deep breaths.

“You can speak slowly. So first of all, let’s calm down.”

Moreover, when I looked closely, I saw small scratches all over Schnelia’s face. It was never a skin problem or anything like that.

It seemed clear that something unusual had happened. Perhaps related to the news about the demon dragon that Sophia just delivered─

「… “Just now, a battle took place at the academy.”

“”──?!””

Everyone freezes at her first words.

A battle at the academy… … .

Everyone had faces that gave them a rough idea of what kind of battle had taken place.

After all, we were just listening to the vivid testimony of Sophia and Sonya. An eyewitness account of Detronos, the demon dragon that leads countless monsters.

“Schnellia? Surely the target of that battle was not Detronos… … ?”

I had a vague guess, but I didn’t bother to ask.

I hope it’s not as bad as that.

Maybe there was a small battle with monsters?

「… Well, how do you know that? Could it be that you, Breeder, also encountered a demon dragon?!”

“this… … .”

But my hope was cruelly shattered. For some reason, ominous premonitions don’t always go away.

Well, the demon dragon and monsters that Sophia witnessed earlier… … . Was he on his way to the continent via the Academy?

“principal? Even so, we have just witnessed demonic dragons and monsters! But I didn’t know that they were coming up from the academy… … ?”

Sophia joins in and answers.

Still with surprised eyes.

Sophia and Schnelia are looking at each other and making the same expression.

We couldn’t keep our mouths shut, as if we couldn’t believe each other.

“Haaa… … . As expected, it turned straight to the continent. I was wondering what would happen if I ran into everyone… … . Still, I’m really glad I didn’t get noticed by the demon dragon!”

“Hey, Schnelia? By the way, what on earth happened at the academy? Suddenly it’s a battle with a demon dragon… … ?!”

Although the appearance of the demon dragon was surprising,

I was more curious about news from the Academy.

Of course, Schnellia’s haggard appearance bothered him, but the background, which looked like a ruin, continued to bother him.

The exterior wall of the building collapsed like a sand castle.

Numerous bookshelves scattered around.

It looked like a battlefield.

Behind the open wall of the building, only the red moonlight was shining lonely.

“Actually, I still can’t believe it… … . That’s how secretly their surprise attack took place.”

‘Was it another surprise attack? … ?’

“An innumerable number of monsters hid themselves in the darkness and attacked the academy without a sound. Still, fortunately among misfortunes, there was no intervention from Detronos. 」

“hmm?”

“I don’t know why, but instead of directly participating in the battle, he just watched from high in the sky… … .」

Schnellia shakes her shoulders as she looks back on her memories.

It didn’t look like Schnellia at all.

She was always full of leisure,

Now, just reminding him of the appearance of the demon dragon made him tremble with fear.

“Well, so what happened? Is everyone safe? … !?”

“Yes, everyone is safe. If all the professors hadn’t been on duty every day, it might have become a bigger problem… … .」

“yes? Wait. I guess you’re safe… … . “What does that mean?”

“Me and Benetrick… And even though all the professors mobilized to fight against the invasion of monsters, injuries from the battle were unavoidable.”

Was it really like that?

It’s impossible for there to be no injuries.

Still, from what they said, at least it seemed like there were no deaths.

“Haaa… ? What about Tina?! Is Tina okay-!?”

This time, Derke interrupts and asks a question about injury.

It was so urgent that I ended up omitting verbs and just spitting out words. Since he was my roommate and the first friend I made at the academy, I couldn’t help but be worried.

“Oh, you’re Derke? Tina… … . Okay, first of all, you’re safe.”

“Well, first of all… … ?”

“As the first-year representative, Tina did her best even in the midst of confusion. Although I stayed in the dormitory until the end and evacuated my classmates, I suffered a minor injury… … . “The injury is not that serious, and I am currently concentrating on treatment, so I will be able to recover quickly.”

“Whoa… … . Tina shouldn’t be in pain… … .”

I’m so glad the injury wasn’t serious.

I put a ghost on it just in case,

The power of just one ghost couldn’t have stopped the monster’s attack.

‘Should you have brought Tina with you? If I hadn’t left it at the academy, I wouldn’t have been hurt… … .’

I feel relief and guilt at the same time.

But what has already happened has happened.

I couldn’t be caught up in sad feelings forever.

“Then Schnelia? Were you able to stop the monsters’ surprise attack for now? “What is the damage?!”

“80% of the academy facilities are half destroyed. Of the total 184 people at the academy, including faculty and staff, more than 150 people are injured… … .」

After finishing the report, Schnelia lowers her head.

Fortunately, everyone survived, but

More than 150 out of 184 people were injured… … .

It seems like an incredibly fierce battle took place.

It was really nice of me to make chicken for everyone right before I left the academy. If it weren’t for the ‘anti-horsepower’ ability given to the chicken, he probably wouldn’t have ended up injured.

“Anyway, I’m glad that everyone is safe. But how did the battle end? Could it be that they were able to deal with all that many monsters… … ?”

Although it was fortunate that there were no casualties,

I couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling.

That’s right, according to Sophia, who most recently witnessed the demon dragon, there were definitely a huge number of demons.

“To tell you the truth… … . The Academy was almost on the verge of collapse. “There were so many ridiculous numbers coming in.”

“Well, what… … ?”

“If the monsters continued to attack without stopping, maybe… … . Not everyone would have been safe. Of course, I wouldn’t have let that happen even if it meant burning all my lives… … .」

Schnellia puts her hand on her chest and clenches her fist with a pained face.

It seemed that the monsters stopped attacking and retreated the moment she was about to choose Donggwijin.

「… Anyway, don’t worry too much about the academy. “As long as I keep my roots here, I will protect everyone at all costs.”

“Schnelia… … .”

“By the way, Breeder, you only witnessed the demon dragon and there was no harm, right? Did Detronus fly all the way north?”

“is it so. But Detronos, why didn’t you intervene directly? The same goes for stopping the attack in the middle and returning… … .”

“It’s a simple reason.”

“hmm? A simple reason?”

“His purpose is ultimately to protect the descendants of Breeder and the six ancestors… … . They probably stopped attacking and retreated because they couldn’t find anyone at the academy. And it may be that it’s not that he didn’t directly intervene in the battle, but that he couldn’t. Of course, it’s just my guess.”

“That means… “Does this mean that my strength hasn’t fully returned yet?”

“Maybe so. Otherwise, I probably would have gone on a rampage myself.”

“It’s scary to even think about that.”

“Rather, Breeder? I have a suggestion… … .」

Schnelia, who was continuing the conversation, looked at me cautiously and trailed off.

“Please speak, Schnelia.”

“Given the circumstances, would you like to return to the academy now? As the Demon Dragon has begun its activities, it is only dangerous to be on the continent. First, come back and do maintenance-”

“No, I don’t think I can.”

“great. So for a quick return… Yes, yes? What did you just say… … ?!

“That Detronos guy definitely moved north, right? His movements… … . “Something is out of the ordinary.”

I declined the offer to return.

Part of me wanted to go back and take care of everyone, but somehow now didn’t seem like the time.

Because it was suspicious that Detronus stopped attacking and headed north.

“So, maybe… … . “Do you have any clues?”

“Okay, so Schnelia? “Can you tell me about the representative clans currently residing in the north of the Drango continent?”
