Pale Calamity

Nikolayevich had no idea he was about to face a Calamity Rank Ancient Dragon. Confident in the forces he had assembled, he immediately ordered them to march on Faerun City.

Because Green was studying at Saint Tower Academy, he had not been called up. He stood high atop the Saint Tower, on an observation deck accessible only to students of the Advanced Studies Class and academy teachers. From there, he could look out over all of Friedenburg City and see the Knights Order and more than a thousand Anomalies Bureau agents marching into the distance.

Green watched without expression. He did not know how many of them would return alive.

Others might not understand what sending these people to the Faerun City Ruins meant, but Green had intelligence from the Shadow Red Dragon. Judging by the state of the Space-Time Gate, the Calamity Rank Elder White Dragon Angdalagon would pass through it around noon tomorrow, before the troops reached the ruins.

This force, made up of the finest troops from three provinces in northwestern Lorenzo Kingdom, was about to run straight into that savage, ferocious Elder White Dragon!

Green could almost imagine the looks on nearly twenty thousand faces when the two-hundred-meter behemoth appeared before them...

The next afternoon, explosive news stunned the entire continent!

Not just Lorenzo Kingdom, but the Rune Federation, the Divine Eagle Empire, Sison Kingdom, the Dicanos United Grand Duchy, the Free Cities Alliance...

Almost simultaneously, newspapers in more than a dozen countries printed special editions: An Ancient Dragon Appears! Twenty Thousand Lorenzo Kingdom Troops Turned to Ice!

The Elder White Dragon responsible, Angdalagon, also earned the name "Pale Calamity." As for the army led by Nikolayevich, only a few Legendary Rank Transcendents escaped in disgrace. Everyone else was wiped out. The entire battle had lasted
