§ 20. Phys Ed With the Conflagration King

Enora Meadow.

Sixty kilometers southwest of Gairadite was a broad, grassy meadow. The students of the Demon King Academy and the Hero Academy were gathered in this unspoiled field filled with greenery and flowers. Before the students stood three teachers: Eldmed, Shin, and Emilia.

“Today, we’ll be holding a physical education class in preparation for hunting dragons,” Eldmed said grandly. “Physical abilities cannot be developed overnight, but you can learn how to handle yourselves properly in a battle against a dragon. Once you learn that, bringing one down will be a piece of cake.” He spun his cane and tapped it on the ground. “So let’s start with a game of tag.”

The students of the Hero Academy sighed.

“You’ve gotta be joking,” Raos moaned listlessly. “We’re gonna be facing actual real-life monsters. What good’s a game of tag?”

“Exactly,” Heine said with a nod. “Here I was expecting a proper lesson on the topic. What a letdown.”

Ledriano lifted his glasses. “I understand that the basics are important, but I can’t see us defeating a dragon in ten days if we move at this pace. Shouldn’t our classes be a little tougher?”

Emilia glared at the three of them. “Raos, Heine, Ledriano, are you three unable to quiet down and listen to the class?”

“We weren’t talking to you, Emilia.”

“That’s Ms. Emilia to you!”

“Yeah, yeah,” Heine replied, dismissing her with a mocking wave.

“That would be fine with me, Ms. Emilia. Bwa ha ha! There’s nothing wrong with being studious about learning.”

At Eldmed’s words, Emilia reluctantly backed down.

“In that case,” Eldmed continued, “without using any magic, the three of you will run over to that tree. If you can reach it within three minutes, I will prepare a tougher class for you. How does that sound?”

“Three minutes? Hey now, you shouldn’t look down on us humans too much. Three minutes is easy,” Raos said with a snort.

The Conflagration King took off his top hat, reached inside, and pulled out three hourglasses. “You have until the sand runs out.” He floated the hourglasses in the air and then spun them over. “Go.”

With that, the three heroes started running languidly towards the tree. Although they weren’t particularly motivated, their training at the Hero Academy until now meant their bodies were well-trained, and they could move much faster than the average human. In ten seconds, they had crossed half the distance.

“Ha ha, we could walk the rest of the way and still make it.”

“What does the Demon King Academy think we’ll gain from such an easy exercise?”

Just then, the ground exploded.

“What the—”

“AAAAAAAAGH!”

A huge green dragon with hard scales, huge wings, and sharp fangs, emerged from beneath the earth. It shot into the air and hovered there, beating its wings to keep its thirty-meter-long body airborne. After building up speed underground, it had burst through the surface, sending the three heroes flying across the ground. They were now lying still, covered in blood and no longer breathing.

“H-Heine?! Raos? Ledriano?!” Emilia shrieked in concern. She immediately tried running towards them, but one glance from the dragon had her frozen in fear.
