Invicinble Colorless Butler

In front of the city gates, hundreds of people gathered in full gear. The ones leading them were the five kings. The princes, princesses, and heroes stood behind the kings with weapons in their hands. Clara, Lilith, and Kalya were also there but had to keep a little distance because they weren't from the group under the instructions of the five kings.

Marius was also seen amid those hundreds of people and managed his knights and mages under him. The mages would fight in the back lines and shoot long-range magic to bring down the dragons in the sky. After the monsters fell to the ground, it was the knights who would fight the dragons head-on.

Those who were allowed to participate in the battle had at least the strength of a senior mage or senior knight because attacks from people with a power level below would not be able to inflict any damage to high-level magical beasts.

Not long after, the sky in the distance of Oriana city suddenly darkened. Everyone before the city gates knew it wasn't the clouds before the rain but the thousands of dragons that covered the sky and would bring havoc on Oriana city.

The knights drew their swords while the mages tightly gripped their wands. They felt nervous and a little scared when they saw that many dragons.

As the dragons drew near, King Leonida and the other kings quickly identified the type of dragon that would invade the human region. The faces of the kings became gloomy after knowing their opponent.

"So the monsters that intend to invade Oriana city are earth dragons? Shouldn't their habitat be in the Earth Dragon Desert? Why did they come to the territory of the Aurelia Kingdom? If the dragons wanted to attack humans, wouldn't it be better to target the Rubelia Kingdom because it was closer to their nest? Could this be related to the Five Kingdoms Conference?" King Gustave muttered in confusion.

King Gustave was shocked after seeing the hordes of monsters that came to invade Oriana city were earth dragons whose nests bordered the territory of his kingdom. He was familiar with the dragons from those areas because he often hunted them to hone his fighting skills.

Then King Gustave was confused about why those dragons appeared in the territory of the Aurelia Kingdom. If the dragons didn't shoot dragon breath from a distance, he might think they were passing through this area. But since the dragons took the initiative to attack first, it was sure that they did intend to invade Oriana city.

Another thing that confused him was why the dragons had invaded the city and disturbed the Five Kingdoms Conference.

(How did the dragons know about the Five Kingdoms Conference? As I recall, those dragons have low intelligence. Could it be that they are being controlled? No, it doesn't seem like it. I don't see any abnormality in them. Then, what was the real reason they invaded Oriana city?)

King Gustave was silent and thought about why a horde of earth dragons suddenly appeared in the territory of the Aurelia Kingdom. He could tell there was no abnormality in the dragons because he had often fought with them and recognized their mental states. So it's not possible. He had all sorts of other possibilities in his head but didn't know which one was the right.

King Gustave would rather fight with his muscles than think with his brain. But he was curious because this matter concerned the earth dragon, and maybe something had happened in the earth dragon desert. As King Gustave was deep in thought, a voice from King Leonida brought him back to reality.

"Gustave… Gustave…" King Leonida called out to King Gustave, who suddenly fell silent after seeing the dragons.

"Hmm... what's wrong, Leo?" King Gustave asked with a confused face.

"I asked you about the origin of the dragons, but you just stared at the hordes of monsters in silence. What are you thinking? Did you find anything?" King Leonida felt that King Gustave knew something. The other three kings also turned their attention to him and waited for his answer.

King Leonida and the other kings were talking about the origin of the dragons when they found out that the ones who came to invade Oriana city were earth dragons. They knew that the earth dragons had many nests on the Clorius continent. Still, the one with the most inhabitants was the earth dragon desert, directly adjacent to the territory of the Rubelia Kingdom. That's why King Leonida and the other kings asked King Gustave's opinion. They thought maybe he knew something about the dragons' invasion.

"It is nothing. I'm just a little surprised. I still haven't found anything about the purpose of this earth dragon horde. But they did come from the earth dragon desert." King Gustave shook his head. He didn't know what to say to them because he was also confused. After this matter ended, he intended to contact the Rubelia Kingdom and ask them to find out about it.

"Is that so?" King Leonida and the other kings looked disappointed after hearing King Gustave's answer.

"Alright. Let's put this matter aside. The most important thing right now was to find a way to shoot them down. If it was another type of dragon, perhaps a full-power ranged attack from a Senior Mage could knock them out. But this was an earth dragon that was famous for its defense. We should launch an attack with a destructive power of Magic Master or above." King Jonathan didn't want them to dwell on things that were still unclear and forget the main problem in front of their eyes.

"You are right. I don't need to think about the reason those monsters came to invade my kingdom. What I have to do is eliminate them!" King Leonida nodded and said coldly. His anger was rekindled when he thought this battle would take a lot of casualties from his people. Then he looked at Marius, who was not far from him.

"Marius! Command the mages to attack the dragon hordes with their best destruction skills! Our opponents are earth dragons, and normal attacks won't have much effect on them! Drop the lizards from the sky!" King Leonida gave his orders. Even though he was angry, King Leonida could still think calmly on the battlefield and was not consumed by his emotions. It was one of his qualities as a king.

"I understand, Your Majesty!" Marius answered, and he turned his eyes to the group of mages behind him.

"For attack-type mages, attack the monsters with your full strength! If you feel you've run out of mana, immediately drink a mana potion to restore your strength and attack again! Repeat the attack until all the monsters fall to the ground! You don't have to worry about running out of potions because we have plenty in stock!" Marius gave instructions to the mages.

The mage group was divided into three. It is an offensive, defensive, and also a healer type. They each have their role in the battle. Unfortunately, there wasn't a single mage oriented in combat support magic that could temporarily increase the group's strength and speed. So, the only person there who could do it was Megumi.

"Ready to execute!" The mages answered in unison.

After getting the answers from the mages, Marius looked at the knights on the other side.

"All the knights prepare to fight the enemy! When the monsters fall to the ground, it's time for you to attack! Do you understand!?" Marius gave other instructions to the knights. They must be able to synergize with the mages to eliminate the dragon horde as quickly as possible and minimize damage to the surroundings.

Cooperation between mage and knight could also reduce casualties on the human side because the mages at the back line would immediately cast healing magic from afar when they saw the knight injured. Because of that, the knights could focus on attacking without worrying. As long as they weren't seriously injured or died instantly, then they would be fine.

In addition, attack or defense-type mages could support the knights from afar when they faced the dragons on the front line. Those mages could also help when the knights were in a dangerous situation.

"We understand, general!" The knights answered firmly. Marius turned his eyes back to the mages and shouted.

"Attack!" Marius signaled the mages to attack.

Hundreds of attacks from the mages shot toward the dragon horde. They showered the monsters with their best-ranged attacks, and their targets were the wings of the dragons. The mages' goal was to knock the monsters out of the sky, so the easiest thing to do was to injure their wing. After the dragons fell to the ground, the knights could start their attack.

Boooooooooommmmmmmm!

Boooooooooommmmmmmm!

Boooooooooommmmmmmm!

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrr!

The dragons roared in pain and fell alternately after being hit by the attack. Although only a tiny part was affected by the attack, it was only the opening. If the mages did it repeatedly, they could take down the dragons little by little until they all disappeared from the sky. Of course, that could happen on the premise of the dragons not retaliating or dodging their attacks.

The dragons in the sky began to counterattack against the troops of the Aurelia Kingdom. They shot dragon breaths simultaneously at the mages' locations.

"Create a barrier!" Marius gave orders to the defense mages.

A colossal barrier appeared above them and blocked the dozens of dragon breaths.

Boooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

The barrier shook but managed to withstand the attacks from the dragons without being scratched. The barrier's durability was strong because it was made by a mage specializing in defensive magic.

"Now is the time for the knights! Attack those dragons!" Marius gave another signal to the knights when he saw the dragons falling to the ground, and there was no more sign of an attack from the sky.

"Ooohhhhh!" The knights answered Marius' orders with battle cries and charged forward to attack their enemies.

The five kings watched the battle while observing the dragons' movements in the sky. They intend to intervene when a mighty dragon appears and breaks the rhythm on the battlefield.

"Until now, everything was going according to plan." King Leonida said while observing the battlefield situation.

"You are right. If the situation can stay like this, we might be able to eliminate all those dragons quickly without any major damage or casualties. Unless a factor emerges, that can change the course of the battle." King Gustave nodded in agreement.

"Yes. Such a factor had at least the power of a saint or perhaps more." King Raghnall added.

"Isn't that the reason why we are here? If that factor appears, we must fight it and prevent the wind on the battlefield from turning around." King Jonathan said and then glanced at his daughter, who was not far from them.

The heroes, Prince and Princess, are directly under the leadership of the kings and still haven't received the order to attack. Some looked bored and impatient, while others looked calm waiting for orders.

"When will we be permitted to enter the battlefield?" Sintaro said, and his face looked a little annoyed.

"Calm down. Didn't King Leonida tell us not to act recklessly? I'm sure the kings had reasons for not sending us along with the knights." Hikaru tried to calm down Sintaro, who looked impatient. SIntaro replied to Hikaru's words with a cold snort.

"That's right. my father and the other kings must have their plans for us." Prince Fritz spoke after seeing that Sintaro would not listen to Hikaru's words.

"You have to be more patient, Sintaro. This war is not a game. You could die at any moment in this battle." Kyouka said coldly. It made the atmosphere quiet, and the people around turned their attention to her. Kyouka looked completely different from her usual self because Shiori's soul and memories had taken over a large part of her. But Kyouka didn't mind that.

"Get ready! Your opponent has arrived! This dragon is stronger than the first one, so you must be more careful!" King Leonida's voice suddenly rang out and broke the silence. They, especially Sintaro, became excited after hearing those words and forgot about Kyouka's coldness earlier.

"We understand, Your Majesty." The heroes, Prince and Princess, answered in unison. But before they could act, several voices sounded, accompanied by a powerful attack that caught the attention of many people.
