The Misfit of Demon King Academy (WN)
chapter-219-2

However, the dragon flew at a frightening speed and evaded the light beam, which surged forward like a comet.

“….<Reflecting Magic Mirrors Regalonatein>…” (Zeshia)

A reflecting magic mirror appeared in the direction of the light beam it evaded. That magic mirror reflected the beam and bounced it back in the dragon’s direction.

“Gyuuaaaaaaahh!!!” (Blue dragon)

The dragon evaded it again while letting out a dragon cry.

However, another reflecting magic mirror was summoned in front of the light beam.

“…This is… an infinity mirror…” (Zeshia)

She kept placing both reflecting magic mirrors on both sides of the variant, which continued to reflect the light beam until it hit the dragon.

“Let’s go for one more shot! <Ablaze Light Mortar Sanctuary Teo Triath>!” (Eleonore)

When Eleonore fired her second shot, the number of light beams increased exponentially thanks to the duplicating magic mirrors, and they merged into a comet.

When the dragon dodged that beam, Zeshia used the reflecting magic mirrors again to bounce it back.

The two comets kept homing on the dragon again and again.

“Here comes the coup de grace! <Ablaze Light Mortar Sanctuary Teo Triath>!” (Eleonore)

Immediately after the dragon narrowly avoided those two shots, a third <Ablaze Light Mortar Sanctuary Teo Triath> was fired right in front of it.

Unable to make a sharp turn or stop due to its huge size, the blue dragon finally took the full brunt of the light beam.

“GUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHH…!!!” (Blue dragon)

As it screamed, the two remaining reflected light beams shot through the dragon and obliterated its huge body in a dazzling light.

“…We… have won…” (Zeshia)

“We’re going to take care of the other dragons too!” (Eleonore)

Meanwhile, on the ground—

As she watched the sky shine, Emilia ran frantically through the forest towards the plain.

The dragons’ stomping rang louder than before. Enemy reinforcements might have arrived. They were probably trying to break through the barrier with sheer volume.

Emilia gathered all the magic power she could from the <Sanctuary Aske> spell, and melted the frozen earth with the <Black Burning Flame Griad> spell.

“…Just a little more…!” (Emilia)

Slowly but surely, she melted the ice, and the magic conduit for the holy water was back to normal.

“Let it flow!” (Emilia)

Emilia shouted, releasing the spell she had used to dam up the river.

Then, the holy water flowed into the magic circle drawn in the ground with great force.

“Heine-kun!” (Emilia)

“Yeah, I know! It’s over now! Easy as pie!” (Heine)

Heine raised his hands and thrusted both of his holy swords into the ground.

But at that moment, he was hit by a blue breath fired through the forest.

“Wha…?!” (Heine)

Even though the breath’s power had been dampened by the <Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias> barrier, Heine’s entire body was instantly frozen.

“Gyuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhh…!!” (Blue dragon B)

A huge blue dragon showed up where he was, roaring and mowing down the trees.

It was a different individual from the one who was in the sky.

“…Goddamn it! Don’t mess with us! Heine! This is gonna get rough!” (Raos)

Raos leapt out of the forest and swung his Holy Sword of Inferno Garriford as hard as he could.

Then he slammed it as hard as he could into Heine’s face.

“Raaaah! This is no time to be taking a nap! Get up already…!!” (Raos)

Flames clung to Heine’s entire body.

At the same time, Laos used holy water to cast healing magic, and soon, cracks appeared in the ice, and Heine’s face was thawed out.

Instantly, he shouted.

“Quick! All I need is one arm free!” (Heine)

“I know, I know!” (Raos)

Raos put magic power into Garriford and thawed out Heine’s right arm.

“Just a little mo—” (Raos)

Laos’ body was blown away on the spot.

The dragon that had come through the forest rushed forward and sent him flying.

The beast glared at Heine with its Magic Eyes.

Looking around, it saw a swarm of dragons coming out of the first one after another.

“Heine-kun…! Now…!” (Emilia)

Just as Emilia was about to come out herself, a third blue dragon landed in front of her.

“Gwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh…!!” (Blue dragon C)

That dragon mercilessly swung down its ferocious claws, knocking her away along with the <Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias> barrier she had coated herself in.

“…Figured that’s how it’d go…” Heine says in frustration.

“Right when I thought everything would work out, it all falls apart… Even my holy swords will run out of patience with me in favor of the real Hero…” (Heine)

Grinding his teeth, Heine saw a large number of dragons coming out of the forest.

Two of them being blue dragons.

To him, it was a hopeless situation.

“…But even so…” (Heine)

In spite of it, his eyes hadn’t yet lost their shine.

“At least once in my life…!” (Heine)

Heine channeled his magic power into his frozen arm, forcing it to move.

“Damn it…! Move…! Move I tell you…! You worthless piece of crap…! How long are you gonna remain a useless waste of space…?! GET MOVING ALREADY…!!!” (Heine)

With a dull creaking sound, his arm moved slightly.

Then he transferred magic power to his holy sword.

“Please, my holy sword…! I know I’m not the real deal…! I don’t even look like the actual Hero…!!” Heine shouted, putting as much strength into his arms as he could.

“Even so, I want to save them…!! Please! Lend me your strength…!! I beg you!!” (Heine)

Making a ghastly noise, Heine’s arm from the elbow down snapped and fell to the ground.

It flipped through the air, and the blade pierced the earth.

“GROAAAAAAARRR…!!” (Blue dragon B)

The dragon in front of him roared, snapped his fangs at Heine, and bit him.

However, he grinned in response, with his gaze turned to the ground.

There was a slight amount of magic in his fallen arm and holy sword.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!” (Heine)

The ground rumbled as the final part of the magic circle was drawn.

Holy water flowed vigorously into the conduit he dug into the ground with the Sword of Holy Land Zere.

“I’ll leave the rest to— GAH…!” (Heine)

The moment Heine was about to cast <Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias>, the dragon’s fangs dug into his body.

“Haha… I knew it… Someone like me… wasn’t… good enough… Fuck…” (Heine)

In the dragon’s mouth, Heine’s head drooped, as if he had lost his strength.

However, a voice reached his ears.

“…I won’t let your efforts go to waste…” (Emilia)

Heine faintly opened her eyes.

“…Emilia…” (Heine)

Emilia, who had been sent flying by the dragon and rolling on the ground, was dipping her hand in the water conduit forming the magic circle. There was holy water flowing in it, and she was already ready to cast her spell.

“You’ve done nothing but slack off, but today, you did a great job.” (Emilia)

Emilia transmitted her magic power to the holy water, and activated her spell.

“<Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias>!” (Emilia)

The power of the holy water went inside her, turned into poison, and corroded her body.

Every time she gained magic power, she was overcome with intense pain.

Nevertheless, dripping with sweat and shaking with emotions, she clenched her teeth and fought through the pain.

No matter how much her body was being corroded, how many stigmas appeared all over her body, and how much they tried to affect even her very source, Emilia remained undaunted, never faltering.

The pain and suffering were insignificant compared to the days of her past.

As if to appeal to that conviction, the <Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias> spell was activated more perfectly than ever, creating countless threads on the spot.

The meadows were shining.

When those threads of light vibrated, they made a beautiful sound that echoed far and wide, as if they were part of a musical instrument.

The dragon that had been holding Heine in its mouth fell to the ground.

One after another, the dragons that had come out of the forest were bathed in the sound, ceased their activities, and prostrated themselves.

Finally, the dragons in the sky fell and plunged into the earth. Clouds of dust erupted high into the air.

The sound barrier created by the gigantic <Dragon Binding Barrier De Jerias> echoed across the Enora Meadow. The dragons that heard the sound either had their power sealed or returned to the depths of the earth.

Many were exhausted and wounded, and most were dying.

If even one thing went wrong, it would’ve been impossible to tell who would’ve won.

Even so, it was a last minute victory that was won by the determination of Emilia and all her students.
