Level 1 Strongest Sage ~

Book 8: Chapter 13: Hakua’s Prank

Halt-sama. A strong aura is approaching us at a high speed.

Tina noticed that there was something drawing nearer to us, so she raised her body.

How strong is it?

Itsprobably stronger than me.

Eh!?

It was stronger than this worlds strongest magic knight, apparently.

This was a bit awful.

If its destination isnt here, then thats good, that was what I thought, but

T-, this is.

W-what happened?

Ryuka and Hakuas mana are also along with it.

No way.

In that case, its destination is here, then.

What in the world might it be?

If its with the two of them, then it might be somebody with a relationship with dragons?

It would be good if it wasnt an enemy

Im going to check it for a bit. The academys in danger if a fight breaks out.

Indeed. Then I too will

Tina, you rest. Youre tired, right?

Tina had raised her upper body that was clad in negligee, but I pushed her back lightly so that she could lie on the bed again.

She couldnt resist, and her body fell on the bed with a plop. 

B-but

Its fine. Ill manage it somehow.

I planted a light kiss on her while patting her head, then I aimed at Ryukas bracelet and teleported.

* * *

Eh, Halt

Ryuka!

Halt had teleported next to Ryuka, but the dragon clutching them was flying too fast, so he was left behind in just an instant.

Halt managed to create a foothold by using wind magic to compress the air beneath him so he could float in the air.

However, it was still a far cry from Tina, who could fly wherever she wanted to.

Ryuka and Hakua were in the red dragons clutches.

Both of them looked fine, but Halt didnt know the real situation, so he decided to chase after the dragon.

He strengthened his physical ability with his magic suit, then he created footholds using wind magic and stepped on them as he dashed through the sky.

However, the speed of the dragon was way too fast, so even though Halt ran with all his might, the gap between them just grew wider.

After a while, just when they were about to reach the distance where they wouldnt be able to hear him even if he shouted

Halt!!! Help!!

Hakuas scream for help reached Halts ears.

It reached Halt.

* * *

Hakuryuu, did you say something?

The Sekiryuu flew at top speed towards the direction of the scent of Halts soul, when he suddenly heard the little girl in his claws Hakua shouting.

It had been a while since the Dragon God turned into his dragon form, so he forgot to use wind magic to reduce the noise of the wind.

He didnt hear what Hakua shouted because of that.

No, the Dragon Gods number one mistake was that he brought Ryuka and Hakua in his claws. 

Hm?

Something suddenly appeared in front of the Dragon God.

That something also disappeared from his view in an instant.

At the same time, a fierce pain run through the Dragon Gods claws

AAARRRGGG!?

The Dragon Gods claws were severed from his body.

The pain had been too sudden, and he didnt even understand what happened as he spiraled down the sky.

During that time, Halt who had just slashed the Dragon Gods claws with Hakoku was lowering Ryuka and Hakua to the ground.

Its okay now. Ill kill that thing.

Halt soared to the sky once again after saying that.

H-Halt! That esteemed person is

Ryuka called out to halt, but he had already surrounded the dragon with a few thousand spears of flame. 

Fire Lance!!!

The flaming spears flew one after the other at top speed towards the Dragon God pierced his body right on cue of Halts chanting.

However, the Dragon God was a deity.

Sekiryuu was originally highly resistant against magic, but this particular one had already reached the status of a deity.

He didnt sustain any major damage even if he was hit with a few thousand shots, moreso given that each spear only consumed two points of mana each.

 Nevertheless, he couldnt move because flaming spears relentlessly rained on his body and pierced him.

Thats why the Dragon God waited.

It would be his chance the moment the surrounding spears ceased from barraging on him

(Just endure for a few seconds, theyre gonna decrease then. Itll be the end for that sage in that instant.)

He couldnt open his eyes because of the spears piercing his face, but he could still sense that the mage assaulting him was right there.

(I dont know who he is, but he dared to attack a deity. Ill be allowed to attack him. Now, how should I deal with him?)

He was going to make him regret that he dared to fight against a deity.

Because of that, the Dragon God started to think about ways on how to torture him.

A few seconds passed, but the attacks had no signs of abating.

(Tsk, how annoying. Seems like he has a huge supply of mana, huh.)

Tens of seconds ticked by, but the attacks still didnt cease.

Rather than that, he had the feeling that the number of spears flying towards him had increased.

(W-what? Why wont it end?)

He couldnt even raise his voice because the spears relentlessly pierced his mouth and throat, but the Dragon God was determined to endure.

A few minutes passed by.

The regeneration of his body could no longer keep up.

($-$%#&! W-hat the #@#@ is happening here!?)

The Dragon God was starting to panic.

Deities basically didnt have bodies of flesh, so to speak.

When the deities manifested themselves in the Human Realm, their flesh bodies were already prepared, and it would possess the highest specifications possible in this world.

This body that was for exclusive use of a deity was beginning to reach its limit.

(C#@&   C#@&   C#@&  C#@& C#@&C#@&C#@&C#@&C#@&)

He tried to escape to the Divine Realm using the teleportation portal exclusive for deities, but he couldnt do so for some reason.

The moment he summoned the divine characters to create the divine teleportation circle, that person meddled with it, preventing his teleportation.

(I-impossible!! Is the one attacking me now a deity!?)

Of course, he also attempted to counterattack, but

Everything had been negated even before he could release his magic.

It was as if the opponent had a full grasp of what he was trying to do.

Several minutes had passed since Halt began his attack.

The Dragon Gods wings and arms that had been guarding fell limp, and his ginormous body started to fall.

The massive dragon fell on the ground.

Halt stopped his magic attacks, then he alighted on the ground and approached it.

Die!!!!

The dragon suddenly rose up and attacked Halt.

Of the claws that Halt severed, only the right claw had fully recovered.

He aimed his sharp right claws at Halts abdomen

He didnt pierce Halt.

Huh?

Halt didnt mind the claw that was about to rip his guts out in the slightest, and he raised his right hand.

The Dragon God followed his movement and raised his head

W-what the heck is that

The colossal pillar of flames had been prepared already, and it rose high above the Dragon Gods head, towering so high that he couldnt even see its top.

You made a mistake when you tried to harm my wives. Bye.

Eh, wai

Firelance!!!

The Sekiryuu who was supposedly highly resistant against fire was burnt black because of Halts super hot fire magic without a chance to defend himself.

T/N: That was no prank, bad Hakua.Your naughtiness had gone too far. Poor, poor Sekiryuu (who reminded me of Ryuushin) T.T

E/N: Nooooo bad hakua. My poor Sekiryuu. Halt is so hasty to kill others except his wives. ()
