“Mm! I made it!!”

Lady Ulrika had appeared all of a sudden.
She had transferred in with spacetime magic, bringing Olivia along.
She was holding the lesser dragon’s huge jaws at bay with one hand, easily.

“Ugh… urp… I feel…”

Olivia was swaying, drunk on her first spacetime magic in her life.
Pale-faced, she had slumped to the ground.

“Hm? There’s an injured person. Livi, tend to them.”

“Injured… ah, this is bad! I’ll treat her at once!!”

Olivia came back to herself and ran to Natasha.
Princess Charlotte looked as if she had no idea what was going on.

“Olivia… why in the world…?”

“Explanations later! Lady Charlotte, are you hurt? If not, I’ll treat Lady Natasha first.”

“Y-yes… I’m fine.”

“Understood!”

Olivia tore cloth and carefully bound Natasha’s wounds.
She finished stopping the bleeding quickly.
Splendid, efficient hands.

“I’ll use healing magic. Lady Charlotte, please stay back.”

“I-I understand…”

“Livi! Use this!”

“Yes, thank you!”

Lady Ulrika handed Olivia a staff.
The palm-sized one Olivia had originally used.
Receiving it, Olivia quietly gathered her mana.

“I’m counting on you. If it’s more than you can handle, call me.”

“Understood!”

Mana gathered, and a shower of light sprayed from the staff’s tip.
In the warm light of healing magic, Natasha’s wounds slowly closed.

“Hoh. Splendid healing magic… oops!”

“GROOOAR!!”

The lesser dragon opened its mouth wide.
Mana concentrated at its jaws; red flame flickered up.

“I see… it’s been hit with a strange spell and is confused. Poor thing…”

“GROAAAAR!!”

A powerful fire breath came at Lady Ulrika.
Her expression, however, was full of room to spare.

“There!”

It was not even magic.
Lady Ulrika only coiled mana in one hand.
Even so, a fierce gust howled.

“Gwoh!?”

The fire breath scattered into the sky, easily.
Battered by the tremendous wind, the lesser dragon lost its stance.

“There, there. Behave.”

“Grrr… GROOAR!!”

The lesser dragon roared in anger.
It spread its wings wide and shot into the sky.
By then, Lady Ulrika was already gone from the ground.

“Hmm… I don’t want to hurt it too much, but… it can’t be helped.”

Lady Ulrika was even higher than the lesser dragon.
She floated, bobbing, on the power of magic.

“Gwoh—”

“Bonk, I say!”

Bonk! Lady Ulrika flicked the lesser dragon on the head.
Then—BOOM!—a tremendous roar rang out.

Flicked on the head, the lesser dragon was smashed into the ground at tremendous speed.
The impact split the earth and left a huge crater.

“G… gwoh… oh…”

Through swirling dust, Lady Ulrika slowly descended.

“That should do. It shouldn’t be dead.”

Overwhelming, common-sense-defying combat power.
Seeing Lady Ulrika’s strength, Princess Charlotte was vacant.

“Wh… who are you…”

“Hn? Charlotte knows, doesn’t she?”

Lady Ulrika turned and flashed a grin.

“The Demon King!”
