Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 44.3

“Transfer! Transfer! Transfer! Transfer!”

Changing angles and locations, I used the severing transfer magic to slice the wyvern apart.

“Gyauuuu…”

The wyvern’s insides spilled out from its writhing abdomen, and the area filled with the thick smell of bl00d. After convulsing violently a few times, the wyvern stopped moving, unable to rise again.

“Gyihiiiii…”

Looking toward the scream heard from outside the entrance hall, I saw another wyvern engulfed in flames. The plan to throw oil jars and shoot fire arrows had succeeded.

“Did we… do it?”

Words I shouldn’t have uttered slipped from my mouth.

“We did it, Yuto-sama! We defeated the wyvern!”

“We did it, Yuto! We won!”

Araseli hugged me, and Radin, who had been rolling to avoid the wyvern’s wings, also called out, confirming our victory.

“Yeah! We did it!”

I shouted, raising my right fist, and hugged Araseli tightly. We survived. Despite facing numerous dangerous situations, both Araseli and I survived unscathed.

“We won… we won, Araseli.”

“Yes, yes… Yuto-sama.”

My body trembled with joy, and I couldn’t stop the tears from flowing. We kissed, confirming each other’s existence with our entwined tongues.

From outside the entrance hall, victorious cheers erupted, and as I became certain that the long battle with the wyverns was over, strength drained from my knees.

“Yuto-sama!”

“Sorry, I just relaxed and…”

“You did wonderfully. Truly, you were magnificent.”

Kneeling down, I reassured myself of Araseli’s warmth. I had protected this precious person in my arms.

“That’s right, Lord Mauroni…”

When I rushed over to the fallen Mauroni, he was still breathing. It seemed he had managed to avoid being crushed by lying close to the rubble.

“Lord Mauroni, Lord Mauroni!”

“Ugh… Yu… Yuto?”

“Yes, it’s Yuto. We defeated them.”

“Both of them…?”

“Yes, I sliced one apart, and the other was brought down in flames.”

“I see, cough… well done.”

“Lord Mauroni! Hold on!”

At my call, Mauroni, who coughed up bl00d, weakly shook his head.

I thought he was protected by the rubble, but it seemed his internal organs were crushed under the wyvern’s weight.

“Someone! Help!”

Radin was with Saed, so I called out to the soldiers who had come out after confirming the battle’s end. One soldier noticed my voice and ran over.

“What happened?”

“Lord Mauroni… quickly, to the infirmary.”

“It’s pointless…”

Mauroni refused to be taken to the infirmary.

“Instead… show me the face of my last disciple… who accomplished such a great feat…”

“Lord Mauroni…”

To me, Mauroni, who was always so robust, now appeared weak and aged.

“Thank you. Because you trained me, Lord Mauroni, we survived. All my achievements are thanks to you.”

“Don’t be foolish… those are your achievements, Yuto…”

“Yes, Yuto-sama, you are this country’s hero.”

At Mauroni’s words, the soldier who had rushed over also agreed.

“Yuto-sama, you saved this country. So… die.”

“What…?”

“Guh…”

“Fool… letting your guard down…”

I couldn’t comprehend what had happened for a moment. The soldier across from me had suddenly stabbed my left side with a knife.

The soldier who stabbed me was then struck through the left chest by Mauroni’s hand and collapsed, letting go of the knife. I had been so focused on defeating the wyverns that I had completely forgotten about the struggle for the throne.

“Yuto-sama!”

“Don’t panic, Araseli! Cough… don’t remove the knife, take me to the infirmary. Have Ludienne treat me.”

“I’ll carry him.”

“Ugh…”

Hearing the commotion, Radin lifted me up, and even the slightest change in position sent intense pain through my abdomen.

“Lord Mauroni…”

“Live, Yuto!”

Mauroni, lying on the rubble-strewn floor, watched me being carried away by Radin with unwavering eyes.
