That noble did something unexpected by saving his lackeys. Normally these types don't give a shit for their followers.

Thanks for the TL

He may be a lil bitch, but he ain't abandoning his friends.

Time for Reid to cast fist

Those two really aren't trying to conceal their past lives at all, huh? Guy just casually mentions that he's "the hero".

Well, not that he exercises much secrecy, but no one really remembers the Hero and his country, so he's got it a little bit better than Elria.

It would be extremely hilarious if Reid was fighting the beast and then Elria appears and gives the finishing blow with a “oh, you didnt need help?” Kind of face xD.

he launches the whole thing into the air and Elria nukes it in the sky. That's the best reason I can imagine for her interfering

Would've been a sound theory, except this thing is magic immune. Reid will have to nuke it with his own fists.

magic immune

see, immune usually means 99% resistance, which doesn't mean much against 100x power.

And that's ignoring the rather large number of physical phenomena you can cause if you no longer care about collateral

His only problem is having a big mouth

And somehow it's kept behind a chain-link fence like it was nothing.

It's a magic-resistant-monster resistant fence.

No one knows who the hero is other than the elves

 

[HYBRID_BEING]

Depends on media in question. But, yeah, you right, Elria could probably whip out something against it.

 

[JaxunHero]

HEAD PAT EXCHANGE!

 

[GolfAlphaMike]

exchange headpats

That's the hot steamy action I've been waiting for!

 

[Szaal]

I like the medical-instruction part. Not just some magiblabber "use heal spell" and it healed, but at least it imitates on how the wound might be a poisonous bite and you need to cool it down to combat the swelling (though as I type this, not sure if it's the correct procedure; well, I'm always more of an engineer than medic).

I also have a thing on serious-life-threatening-instruction vignette like this. Idk, always see 'em as more packed version of Tom Clancy's charm.

 

[Insignis]

Question is, do magic immunity distinguish between a real rock/ice spike thrown with physical force, and ones created with magic? Of course she could summon a meteor like Tatsumaki and just wreck the monster with it even if it can.

Bro's about to punch the Tarrasque

1000 years had passed. The people we are seeing is probably the 15th generation of those that he fought and served. It really did not matter whether he said that he is the hero or not since no one will care

 

[Superpeanut]

That monster looks like the Tarrasque.

They even mentioned it’s “immune to magic” like one. Maybe that was the inspiration?

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

Oh boy, here we go again with a basic combat exam secretly having a monster immune to all magic that no one aside from the MC can defeat. Really looks bad on the academy that they let something like that nearly kill their students.

And somehow it's kept behind a chain-link fence like it was nothing.

You don't seriously think the academy would go on with the exam if there was such a monster on the location, right? Even normal high-ranking monsters like the noble kid suggested are implausible.
Somebody must have put the monster there. Somebody influential enough to ship giant dragons around without arousing suspicion. Because it can't be teleported (it's immune to magic, right?).

 

[BobBob]

Props to noble kid for carrying his friends to safety. Cool how the friends get to shine and are legitimately necessary. I wonder how that monster got there. It clearly wasn't intentional. Did someone summon it?

At the very least there were Medium-ranked beasts there before the teachers beat them ahead of time. This does not explain away the magic monster-proof chain-link fence.
