The Dragons that had opened their jaws ready to attack their nearest targets, never managed to do so as a few figures appeared in every location that the Dragons landed...
But that wasn't enough to ignite their hopes...
As they had charged the attacks with their heads ready to blow away everything by opening their jaws, those figures separated their heads from the rest of their bodies...
It was a few clean cuts and many caught the moment those figures appeared in front of them and slashed at the unprepared Dragons severing their heads as their bodies slowly wiggle and finally fell down...
??? : Please get to safety, follow the guards and you will be fine...
??? : Joe!!! What are you doing more Dragons are coming!!!
Joe : But i have to warn them, Erion...
Erion : You think, they will get hurt with all of us being here??
Joe : It never hurts to say that much at least you know...
BANG!!! BANG!!!
Erion : And it looks like Noah started sniping at the Dragons hitting them on their forehead...
Joe : With so many Dragons here everyone will get a piece i guess...
Joe : Hm?? What's that noise??
Just as they were talking and going to the next Dragon they could see suddenly a few sharp noises were heard and they realised it was coming from above them...
Everyone turned to look upwards and their faces paled while a few of them facepalmed themselves as they could see clearly that those were dead bodies sliced and diced...
But the fact that they were falling on their heads and the destruction would be enormous was true...
At that moment, however, before impact, the Dragons froze on the air and the bodies started shrinking down instantly one by one to doll sizes...
??? : Sigh, why make us work??
??? : It can't be helped right, everyone is working so hard...
None knew how this happened and avoided a worst-case scenario but those who were abnormal knew that it was Dimaria and Brandish μ freezing the time around the Dragons and shrinking them...
Dimaria : This was supposed to be their problem...
Brandish : Yeah but with so many dead bodies falling there were bound to fall our place as well...
Dimaria : So it would be like we took collateral damage huh...
As the two talked casual, the rest of Alvarez looked at them weirdly as from what they could see none of these bodies were coming on their way...
It just clicked them that they simply didn't want to see the child getting flatten here and there...
Yura : I see a dragon preaching us from that direction i will take it...
Bloodman : I wonder if my curses work on the Dragons over there...
Serena : I want to see how my Dragon Slayer Magic will fare against a real Dragon... Oh, i see one over there...
Eehto : Perhaps my machines are able to kill one and gathered Data on how to strengthen them...
Jacob : A few kids cheered for me so i will go and guide those to safety...
Dimaria and Brandish looked at them speechlessly as they had decided to not bother and it was fucking true that a few Dragons seem to fall towards them...
They were watching as they all left on their own for a few excuses they rumbled on and sighed before Brandish stepped out as well...
Brandish : Well, although it sounds lame, i was born in this continent and my mom lived here...
Dimaria : Fine, fine, fine... I'll stop the time of the Dragons that kept falling from the skies and you do your part fo excuses...
As they moved forward they failed to see that someone was hidden a few meters away with a blurry image on the rumbles...
??? : I don't know if my illusions worked or they simply needed a reason to act...
