Chapter 17

Collaboration Attack

We came to the forest in search of a dragon; however, we haven't found it yet.

It seems that only a few dragons have invaded the hunting area today.

The good thing is I'm in a great position right now, as Katia, Rohee, and Flambert are walking a good distance in front of me.

This distance is just perfect for the Dragon Turning Slash or the Skirt Flipping technique.

If I could produce wind using my sword, I would be able to make the skirts of the three beauties flip up beautifully.

For Flambert-sensei it will be really easy to flip her skirt as she's wearing a really short skirt that I can see her pure white thighs.

Well, this is a really great opportunity.

What should I do!

No, I won't do it as it's against my chivalry to do something a woman doesn't like.

I need to hold back here...

[Don't hold back, this is a really great chance, do it.]

Huh?

Who the hell is speaking to me?

Is it the demon that resides in my heart?

[That's right. I'm the demon that resides in your heart. Putting who I am aside, didn't you desperately master the Dragon Turning Slash for this kind of thing?]

No, that's not true!

Though I can't entirely deny it as I really want to flip some girls skirts.

[Don't do it, Zekudo-san.]

Who said that?

Who are you? Show yourself.

Is the one who said that the angel that resides in my heart this time?

[No, I'm a demon.]

A demon!

Is there no angel that resides in my heart?

[Unfortunately, there are no angels here. Well, let's put that aside for now.]

No, don't just put that aside!

[Zekudo-san, don't listen to that demon.]

What are you saying? You're also a demon right?

[If you really want to flip their skirts, it's better to do it during a fight as no matter how you look at it, if you do it now, it will be unnatural and it will look intentional. However, if you are in combat you can make it look like it's an accident.]

[Oh! That's a really great plan. Let's go with that, Zekudo!]

Ummm... hey, can you guys just leave.

[[Eh???]] Both the devil inside my heart said that in perfect unison.

"Captain Zekudo"

"Y... Yes!? What is it!?"

I was surprised when suddenly Rohee-san called me.

When I returned to myself, I looked at Rohee-san who was in front of me.

"Don't tell me you're thinking about flipping our skirts right now, weren't you?"

Did she catch up with my plan?

"Tha.... tha... that's ridiculous! Why would I do that?"

"Because I had a very bad feeling when I look at you."

"I also felt that way."

Even Katia-sn!?

This is baaaaaaaaaaaad!

Is it a woman's intuition?

That's some really sharp intuition that they've got there.

"Katia-san, Rohee-san, I'm sure Zekudo-kun will never do that."

Fla-Flambert-sensei?

"You know, Zekudo-kun would never do anything that a girl wouldn't like. Sensei knows that."

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]

[I'm disintegratiiiiiiiiing!]

Wow! It looks like my demons were screaming terrible and vulgar words as they got destroyed.

For some reason something is wrong with me as my heart is really hot right now and it looks like it's burning.

The way Flambert-sensei looks at me with such faith is really painful!

It's really painful! It's like she's the sun that shines upon my evil desires.

"Of course Flambert-sensei. I would never do such a thing because I love women!"

I can't believe I could say such an obvious lie without batting an eyelid.

...well, great timing.

As the dragon that we've been looking for finally showed itself.

Walking through the depths of the forest is a red A-class dragon.

When we saw it we immediately hid in the bushes.

"It's a dragon!"

"All right. We'll go according to what we've discussed!"

The three of them responded to my instructions with "Understood!" and we all jumped out of the bushes.

When the dragon spotted us, it let out its customary roar.

Rohee-san and Katia-san were the first to charge at the dragon.

When they do that, the dragon fires a fireball at Rohee.

Rohee didn't even try to avoid the fireball as she lunged straight into it.

Rohee's seemingly reckless charge was only possible as Katia was already in front of her ready to interrupt the fireball that the dragon had fired.

Katia then used her large shield to catch the fireball and defend Rohee.

Rohee then runs around Katia and charges at the dragons head.

The dragon then seems to have found out about Rohee's plan as it launches an attack to bite her.

However, an ice arrow from Flambert-sensei pierces through the large open mouth of the dragon.

The dragon then wailed in pain as the ice arrow was now stuck in its throat.

Rohee took advantage of this opportunity as she struck the dragon's head with her full power.

The dragon's head was then slammed into the ground with a large sound.

Now!

I then drew my long blade as I ran towards the dragon.

I raise my fighting spirit, and I slash the dragon with my longsword as I passed by it.

The wind generated by my slash generates additional slashing effect as it strokes the dragon scales.

All the dragon scales in its body peeled off splendidly while it made a crackling sound.

If its the size of an A-class, I can remove all the dragon scales with a single slash from Dragon Turning Slash.

"Now!"

When I gave the order, Katia-san and Flambert-sensei launched an attack on the dragon with zero defense as it has no scales to protect it anymore.

Katia stabbed the dragon's left foot with her buster lancer while she detonated it.

The explosion from the thrust caused the dragon's flesh to burst off.

Flambert-sensei aimed and shot her arrows at its left hind leg.

She shot her Ice Arrow in quick succession; after a while, the dragon finally toppled over to its left side.

"Now an opening!"

Rohee delivered the final blow to the dragon that lies in the ground.

She also activated the capabilities of her Trigger Weapon, causing additional damage due to the explosion.

After the detonation of the Magnum Hammer, the dragon had died and stopped moving.

"Yeah, that was a really great teamwork."

I said that as I sheathed my long blade while Katia shrugged her shoulders.

"It was a really good collaborative attack but it took a long time to pull it off."

"It doesn't matter if it takes a long time to do it because this is just to practice our collaborative attack to fight an S-class dragon."

I don't know if it's collaborative attack will work against an S-class dragon, but it's definitely better to have more options when we fight it.

I just hope that this collaborative attack will also be one of the means of resistance against an S-class dragon.


Note:
1. Dragon Turning Wheel will be changed to Dragon Turning Slash as it sounds more proper that way.
