"!!"

Listening to the White Whale’s scream, Wilhelm rode the fin he’d sent flying onto the ground below. Normally, you would think a fall from such a great altitude would result in instant death, but the soles of Wilhelm’s feet kicked off the fin just before impact, and his land dragon caught him, softening the blow.

“Wilhelm!”

Subaru tried to make sure he was all right, but Wilhelm did not respond, for his eyes were on the White Whale, still rapidly ascending.

Drawn in, Subaru looked up, and his vision was caught by the White Whale’s tail as it swam in the sky high above.

Blood dripped from the fin that had been sliced off, pouring downward with violent force. The grassy plain was dyed scarlet, and Wilhelm was bathed in red rain, his will to fight undiminished.

Subaru didn’t think the White Whale was going to just turn tail and run, either, but the demon beast’s goal in heading up into the sky was unclear. The Iron Fangs and the expeditionary force uneasily looked up at the sky, and Subaru grew concerned for the wounded gathered at the roots of the Great Tree.

“It’s coming.”

Wilhelm made a small murmur as he turned his gaze upward.

Seeing the aged swordsman narrow his eyes and return both hands to his sword hilts put everyone on guard.

And then, as they held their breaths—they regretted it. Too late, they knew they should have deployed instantly without waiting for the White Whale, floating above their heads, to act.

“—Mist, incoming!!”

Subaru shouted as loudly as he could. Rem made the land dragon whirl about and move away from the front.

The land dragons and ligers all around them started running all at once, but there was no longer any leeway for Subaru to raise his head and see if the others were safe.

—Billowing, annihilating mist came falling to earth with such force that it seemed to blot out the sky.

The mist was like the clouds themselves were falling. There was no way to avoid it save escaping the area. Sheltering behind rocks or trees was meaningless resistance before destruction that would swallow all obstacles whole.

There was nothing they could do but start running and pray that they were in time.

Too afraid to look up, Subaru merely felt the oppression of the soundless apocalypse hurtling from above. He earnestly squatted against the land dragon’s back, lowering his posture as far as he could as they ran—

“We got through?!”

Having apparently slipped out from under the thick mist and entered a clearer area, Subaru turned his head around and looked back.

There were several figures on the ground behind them that hadn’t made it out in time, swallowed up as the mist pressed down upon them. With expressions of fear and anger chiseled on the human beings’ faces, they earnestly fled, but they were engulfed by the mist from the head down and vanished.

The land dragons were obliterated with them. With the mist falling and scattering to the ground, no trace of their destruction remained. Not even their names would remain in anyone’s memories.
