Chapter 542: Ice Magic
"Aaaargh!"
While swiftly moving around, I was beheading the Hydra. Sieg's screams, while clinging to my shoulder, were extrely loud.
"You're loud."
"Don't be unreasonable!"
Sieg let out a roar of real anger, but at the sa ti, the Hydra's attack ca. The Hydra would typically spit out venomous sli. However, what it spewed was a magma-like substance.
An individual living in magma, that in itself was not surprising. However, the stickiness was a real nuisance. When I caught it with the barrier, it would stick to it and gradually lt it. That's why I had to move fast, behead it quickly, but Sieg was seriously annoying.
"Seriously."
While dodging the magma sli by flying upwards, I consider settling it with a grand spell. However, if I use a grand spell in such a place and cause an eruption, the damage to the ecosystem could be unimaginable. I don't even know where this place is, I should refrain from such an action. That's the common sense.
"Get rid of it with magic quickly!"
"What if the volcano erupts? Have so common sense."
"Don't pretend to be sensible here! It's dangerous, see? The head is regenerating!"
The head, which should have been severed, was growing anew. An absurdly high regenerative power. The Hydra has high regenerative ability, but it is ridiculous for the severed head to regenerate imdiately.
"Let's be unreasonable too."
"There are living things around us striving to survive. I don't want to cause them harm if I can help it."
"I wish I could tell that to the Dragonfolk..."
Well, from their perspective, I might be a monster who suddenly ca to destroy their ho, but from the perspective of the people of Mizuho, they are evil people who abducted a child and are holding her captive. I am on the side of the people of Mizuho. However, I tried to resolve the situation calmly, by threatening them, I didn't want to cause too much harm. My stance has not changed anywhere.
"We either have to sohow draw it away from the magma, or nullify the effect of the magma."
"So! Just hit it with a grand spell that won't change the environnt!"
"Don't say sothing so complicated all of a sudden."
"You've done much more complicated things many tis, haven't you!?"
Sieg, in his anger, tries to jab . But, unfortunately, the Hydra's attack ca at that mont. So, when I dodged.
Sieg then proceeded to fall.
"Aaaaaaaah!"
"What a troubleso guy."
As Sieg was falling, I extended my arm. Then, a gigantic translucent magical arm appeared. The magical arm caught Sieg, who was about to be swallowed by the Hydra with its mouth open, just in ti, and pulled him back to .
"How was it? An enjoyable trip?"
"I thought I was going to die..."
"I'm glad you didn't die."
"I don't even have the energy to retort anymore... It's hot, I want to eat ice..."
"Ice... That's a good idea."
If it's regenerating rapidly thanks to the magma, I should deprive it of that. Let's freeze the Hydra along with the magma.
"Let the freezing ti co. The blue sky turns into an icy sky. The grassland becos an icy field. Gather, ice flowers. Dance, heavenly flowers. All to white, all to zero. Give the sinner a white nightmare - Absolute Zero."
A pure white sphere was created in front of . The sphere slowly descended towards the Hydra. All nine of the Hydra's heads tried to defend by spitting out magma sli, but the sli froze first. While breaking the frozen sli, the white sphere hit the Hydra.
In an instant.
The volcano, along with the Hydra, froze. The entire scene turned into a pure white world.
"Cold!"
"It seems it can't regenerate if frozen."
As a test, I severed the frozen Hydra's head, but it didn't regenerate. Even the stubborn regenerative ability of the Hydra seems to end once it's frozen with the magma.
"Hey! Freezing the volcano will cause changes in the ecosystem!?"
"...Life is designed to adapt to natural changes, don't worry."
"Ah! You realized that after being told, didn't you?"
"Everything is within my expectations."
While saying that to Sieg, I lifted up the frozen head of the Hydra. One should be enough to make a statent.
It took longer than I thought. Let's get back as soon as possible.
"Hey, hey, can you teleport even if you don't know where this place is?"
"I have a grasp of the adventurers' guild branches across the continent. Judging by the huge volcano, it must be within the Empire. It's not a problem."
Saying that, I teleport to an adventurers' guild branch within the Empire, holding the Hydra's head. As long as there is a place of origin, you can teleport to most places. The reason why I prefer to teleport from the capital branch is that it's easier to do so.
Passing through several branches, we successfully returned to the Twilight Forest.
"We managed to return quite quickly."
"No, we took too much ti, surprisingly. Now, let's proceed."
Saying that, I threw the Hydra's head on the ground and began chanting again.
