Of course, this method of keeping his word was Cale's personal philosophy.

Baaaaaang!

The tornado shot up and crashed into the ship. The mast started to shake and tilted to the side.
And then.

"Aaaaaah!"

It broke.
The Indomitable Alliance was being attacked on two sides from the sky and the ocean, however, there was no visible enemy attacking them. Only one person, the Dragon Catcher, had enemies in front of him.

The Dragon Slayer, the helmeted knight, looked toward the ocean and became at a loss for words.
He heard continuous noises of things breaking. He also heard people screaming.

There were people using magic against the red fog and the tornado even though no enemies were there. There were also some knights blankly slashing their swords at the air.

"Turn the ships! We need to get away from the fog and the tornadoes!"

The few people who managed to come to their senses avoided the fog and started to shout from inside magic shields. The Dragon Catcher who was watching this suddenly thought about someone.

'Why isn't the old mage doing anything?
Why isn't he coming to save me?'

He didn't like the damn bastard, but the old mage was good at differentiating people based on their rank. It was weird that such a person was still quiet. He should have done something by now.

'Perhaps?'

The Dragon Catcher heard someone's voice in his ear.

"Looks like you have time to think about other things even when someone is choking you."

It was Cale.
Of course, Cale had intentionally given the Dragon Slayer an opening to think about other things.

Only then would he truly understand his present situation.
They were out on the open sea.
For Cale, the ocean had to be somewhere that the enemy had nothing to rely on.
Cale explained the situation to the helmeted knight in a friendly manner.

"What is it? Is it weird that the mage has not responded?"
"...How do you know about the mage-?"

It was before the knight could even finish his sentence.

Boooooooom!

There was an explosion that was much stronger than the others. The Dragon Catcher's face turned toward it. He saw a pillar of water and a bright light clashing at the ship at the front of the fleet.

It was not that the mage had not done anything.
He could not do anything.
He was currently under attack.

Cale whispered into the Dragon Slayer's ear once more.
"You know that I have a Dragon."

Cale's voice sounded happy. On the other hand, the helmeted knight felt chills on the back of his neck. His eyes turned toward Cale.
'Who would think of this guy as a just hero?
And how could this person have three different ancient powers in his body?'

Cale's plate was the worst that he had ever seen. It was maybe as big as a fly's plate.
So how was this possible?

Even if he had regeneration abilities, the wood and wind would clash in a few years and he would eventually die in pain.

'...Perhaps?'

Extraordinary.
An unbelievable thought crossed through the Dragon Slayer's mind. There was a sensation suddenly surrounding him.
Boom, boom!
An ancient power inside his body was reacting to something. The Sword of Disasters was sending him a warning.
