Opening The Gate

I had magnetized Dragon Prince Kyloon and rendered him unable to move.

“Amazing! He is stuck together with a smack!”

Before us, the lightning-clad dragon was writhing.

I had transformed his lower body into an electromagnet and his upper body into iron.

Or rather, even though he could not move, it was impressive that he was still floating in the air. I wonder if he was using electricity for that too.

“What powerful force…… You! You must be a witch from the surface!”

“No, I’m just an alchemist.”

“An alchemist!? One of those who turn stone into gold!”

“Yes, that kind.”

So even though he lived in the heavens, he knew quite a bit about the surface.

“I see…… So the alchemists of the surface have now advanced as far as you have!”

I take that back. This guy seemed like an ignorant idiot after all.

“Master. This dragon has the same scent as you.”

“Are you calling me stupid? Huh? Miss Robot Maid?”

“No, no. I merely thought he was a little lacking in the head.”

“All right, let’s battle. You’re the punching bag.”

Cherge and I started grappling with each other.

Meanwhile, Kyloon tried his best to lower his head.

“I apologize, noble and beautiful alchemist of the surface! I beg your pardon for my rudeness.”

“O-Oh…… W-Well? If you’re apologizing, I suppose I’ll forgive you.”

It was not like I instantly changed my mind just because he called me noble and beautiful, okay?

Do not misunderstand!

I released the iron transformation for him. Then the dragon was immediately able to move again.

He came before us and bowed his head once more.

“I am sorry. I shall recognize you as visitors.”

“You’re accepting us surprisingly easily.”

“Divine dragons discern the true worth of another’s soul through battle.”

“I see,” Cherge nodded.

“It is that thing where delinquents become friends through fighting.”

“What thing?”

But recognizing someone just because you fought them? Just how muscle-brained were they……?

“I shall open the gate.”

Kyloon opened his mouth wide.

Just as I thought a magic circle had appeared, a gigantic gate appeared there.

With a rumble, the doors opened.

“Welcome to the dragon kingdom, Sky-Foshwa. I welcome you from the bottom of my heart.”
