The flying bus landed in a large clearing. As soon as everyone got off, Tomoya put it away and looked at the large waterfall before her. "Looks like we made it in time. Yue, open up the waterfall. I will go grab that idiot."
"Okay!" Yue did not hesitate to listen to Tomoya. She raised her hand, and without even saying a word, the entire waterfall suddenly split in two. Tomoya then disappeared and returned almost instantly with a blonde-headed young man. This was Will Cudeta, Tomoya's target of rescue. He is the third son of Count Cudeta.
*Smack!*
"Oi…. Wake up!" Tomoya smacked the back of Will's head.
"Tomo!" Of course, Aiko yelled at her for her harsh actions.
"Aiko, he's a boy. If he can't handle a small smack to the back of the head, then he should cut his penis off." Tomoya snorted, then whacked Will again. "Stop faking being asleep!"
"Ah! Sorry!" Will rolled across the ground while Tomoya snorted at him.
Tomoya dusted her hands off and looked at the young man. "My name is Tomoya. I am here under orders of the guild. I will be bringing you back to Fuhren soon."
"You were sent to save me!?" Will was in a daze. "But because of me they….. It's here!"
Tomoya sensed danger and looked up. Sure enough, the dragon she had been waiting for had finally arrived. "Yue, Shea, stick to the game plan. Yuka, keep the others from doing anything stupid."
"Understood!" Yue and Shea yelled out.
"Alright!" Yuka was shocked at first that she was being called out but quickly answered back.
"Aiko, tend to this idiot's wounds for me, please." Tomoya looked back and gave everyone a grin. "It's time to become dragon slayers!"
Shea stood at Tomoya's side, her expression showing just how excited she was. "Tomo, I will be off."
"Mm… be careful. Don't make me worry." Tomoya gave Shea a light smack on the butt, sending her on her way before standing there watching the dragon as it came in for a landing.
Shea launched herself into the air right as the dust kicked up to use it as cover and swung her massive hammer around as if she were spinning chopsticks on her fingers. As she was coming down, the back side of her hammer suddenly opened up, and a rocket thruster burst forth, making the hammer fly back towards the ground at almost mach speed. "Hammer Burst!"
*Boom!*
The dragon suddenly collapsed into a massive pit that was formed from the impact. It roared out in pain as it flailed about. Shea was quick on her feet and retreated back, not daring to attack again. Her hands were all numb from that impact just now. She had never thought a dragon's scales would be so hard.
"Leave the rest to me!" Tomoya took out her gunblade and fired at The dragon who had just raised its head. A red beam of light shot forth and grazed the back leg of the dragon. A large wound appeared in its leg, and blood began to spill out.
"Roar!" The dragon's anger surged forth as its glowing red eyes pulsated and turned towards Tomoya. It seemed to perceive her as a danger and quickly opened its mouth. Blackish purple flame flowed from its mouth, shooting right at Tomoya.
"Hehe! Good! Attack me with your breath!" Tomoya held out her hand and imagined a massive barrier. "Aegis!" A domed-shaped barrier made of hexagonal shapes suddenly formed, blocking the attack as if it were someone spitting water at it.
The flame continued to flow from the dragon's mouth. And Tomoya, who was being attacked, took out a chair and a tea set. She began to prepare a cup of tea while she watched the pretty fireworks in front of her.
"Why do I feel that Tomo is way too relaxed for this?" Yuka sighed. She knew Tomoya was strong, but this was just. She did not think she could fight such a monster on her own.
"Tomo is amazing in many ways." Yue grinned and looked at Yuka while licking her lips. Yuka's face instantly turned red. She could not deny it. Tomoya was truly amazing in many ways! She was speaking from first hand experience!
"Any time now…." Tomoya got up from her chair and put it away. She then downed her tea and put that away as well before turning around. Just as she waved her hand, the stream of flames ended, and the dragon suddenly glowed brightly before turning into a puff of smoke.
Tomoya casually walked forward with her hands in her pockets before stopping in front of a dragon girl she knew very well, Tio. "Hmmm? Seems she is still under the mind control."
Tio was glaring at her with hatred in her eyes. She would charge forward and kill the threat in front of her if it was not for the fact that she was suddenly being retrained. "Ah, right. I forgot to tell you I used wind magic to restrain your arms and legs."
Tomoya looked at the red eyed Tio and sighed. She needed a way to take this stupid girl out of her mind control. "Wait… Hajime used a stake in the ass. What if I use a finger in the front?" Tomoya did not want a perverted Tio but a serious Tio who was full of knowledge and acted like a big sister. "I guess it is worth a try." With this thought in mind, Tomoya stood in front of Tio, reached out, grabbed her chin, and leaned forward….
