Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 41.2

“You’re wrong, Yuto. Why do you think the wyverns gathered in a group and sleep together?”

“That’s because…”

“Because they fear you.”

Mauroni’s words snapped me out of my sleep-deprived daze.

“They may not know it’s Yuto specifically, but they understand there’s a danger to them. Despite that, they take measures and sleep as usual. You, with the safety of the underground and Araseli, have nothing to fear.”

“Ugh… I wish you’d told me that sooner.”

“Haha, then you’ll sleep well tonight?”

“Depends on the operation’s outcome.”

“A wall, useful or not, makes no difference. Once you decide to act, unleash your magic with full force. Just like in training.”

“Yes, understood.”

Mauroni’s unwavering confidence gave me a baseless but encouraging feeling that I could do it.

With everyone gathered, Saed made the final checks.

“Today, we’ll definitely take down one more wyvern and ensure Yuto’s safe retreat. If we succeed, victory is almost certain. Everyone, perform your roles flawlessly, and let’s make this operation a success. It’s time to work…”

Saed raised his rock-like fist, and everyone followed suit. I just had to do my part, like I did when I was on janitorial duty.

We exited through a different passage to the ground, moved through the castle corridor, and reached the yard. It was still dark outside, with no sign of dawn.

Lights with shades illuminated the yard, marking the path to the dance hall. Mauroni spoke from behind.

“Yuto, watch your step and move quietly.”

“Yes…”

Just like yesterday, we advance through the garden in the order of Radin, Saed, me, Araseli, and Mauroni.

Despite wearing metal armor and carrying large shields, both Radin and Saed make almost no sound.

Monsters… I murmur to myself as I follow silently.

As we move through the garden, the sound of the wyverns’ breathing grows louder.

Today, the three are clustered together, creating a slightly off-kilter trio of snores.

As we approach the large hole in the dance hall wall, I notice that the surrounding rubble has been gathered and cleared.

While the wyverns were out hunting, soldiers who couldn’t participate in the subjugation cleared it with their lives on the line, so we could fight on more stable ground.

When we reach the edge of the hole, Saed signals me with a hand gesture to check inside.

I close my eyes briefly, letting them adjust from the light to the darkness.

As I open my eyes wide and stare into the interior of the dance hall, the wyverns’ outlines gradually become clear.

We are on the right side of the hole from the outside. Peering in, I see one wyvern curled up with its head to the right.

From my position, if I head towards the center of the dance hall, I would hit the base of the wyvern’s wing.

Because the wyvern in front casts a shadow, I can’t see how the other two are positioned, but since they are not visible, they must be in positions where they can’t immediately attack.

The question is where to sever the wyvern.

Chances are, we will only get one opportunity, making it difficult to attack the other two as well.

The plan was originally to ensure we take down one wyvern.

While hiding in the shadows of the wall, I consider the most effective severing line.
