As soon as I gave the signal to my comrades, I commanded my Rainbow Dragon to make a thousand-meter dive from the skies. Combining our weight, speed, and the force of gravity, we managed to get past the speed of sound, which made a huge blast as soon as we crashed on the hotel. Jasmine has her claws covered with rainbow elements, which is why we didn’t suffer any damages. The left wing of the hotel has been burst open.

There were about fifteen Arcadian soldiers who immediately acted when they saw me and my Rainbow Dragon. They aimed with their rifles but then they got their brains explode one by one, thanks to our sniper, Rudolf Azregon. I immediately rushed forward to the lower floors where the princess and that kid dragonoid are. I have to rescue both of them!

I slide on the staircase, slashing and thrusting the terrorists who blocks my way with my rainbow scimitar. When I finally reached the floor where the hostages are, I saw Nox holding his decapitated arm and watching it as it grows back again. It was so gross!

“You traitor.” Nox muttered. Then he drew his buster sword from his back and prepared to chop the princess’s head off!

My reflexes made my body move on adrenaline and point my hand towards the rainbow-eyed freak! “Fusion Flare!”  A white fireball bursts to his right arm which made his buster sword flying out of the windows. And then I surged forward with a fast slash, tearing his right shoulder all down to his left waist! He fell lifelessly to the ground with shock on his face.

I immediately removed the explosives and threw it out of the windows. Then I removed the princess from being bound from her chair. Next is to free the now one-eyed Gaz. Poor kid. He didn’t have to suffer like this in his young age.

Suddenly, there appeared three Arcadians wielding a sword that raided us! “I got this!” Princess Seris said as she took a step forward. “Princess Punch!”

Her arm was coated with golden flames. Seris made an uppercut straight to one of the terrorist which immediately broke his jaw. His body went flying that it crashed with the two other red-eyed terrorists! T-That’s… That’s the Princess Punch that was taught to the royal family women. It can seriously put a shield plate to zero percent in one hit! A truly devastating magical attack! But it can only be used once per day, so it’s quite a luxury.

“Let’s go!”

I immediately attached shield plates to Gaz and Seris. As soon as Jasmine’s dragon form peeked at the windows, I carried both of the hostages to jump to my Rainbow Dragon’s back. Then the Rainbow Dragon jetted forward in maximum speed.

Our main objective is to rescue the princess right now. Taking down Dragunov is not my job. I’ll leave those to the Chevalier Unit. Even if I have a personal grudge on my stepfather, I still won’t involve myself in this war they have created. All I care about is the princess’s wellbeing.

When we were on the way out, I remembered that Rudolf Azregon must’ve been backing me up but he didn’t follow my lead. My doubt has been extinguished as I saw thick smoke in one part of the city. I had a small detour to check on the area and then we saw him. The princess shrieked as she witnessed this horror. Gaz gritted his teeth.

Rudolf and his dragonoid are completely lifeless on the ground. And then I saw the silver-haired ice lady who’s slowly walking close to Rudolf’s body, while holding an icicle dagger on both hands. She had her red eyes popped with so many veins that we can mistake him for a crazy woman.

“Jasmine, go!” I commanded my Rainbow Dragon. Jasmine reduced her altitude while maintaining her speed. On the way, I heard Emy shout in front of the unconscious Rudolf.
