To those whining about the funny little asides, keep in mind not everyone hates them like you do.

@mrcat25: The king immediately spin it as the spirits are angry because there's humans who refuse to believe in the chosen priestess and kick out all his opposition.
So the boycott in a way backfire and gave the king full tyrant level of power instead.

For the curious
1. Will Ruri ever reveal herself?
Yes, right after this war in fact.
Klaus will also explains why he said that at the time.
Essentially, he was glad she wasn't a greedy and power abusing type like the human king/high priest, not that he's glad she's not of human race, just his words caused the misunderstanding.

2. What's THAT.
Well, it suck in nearby spirits to cause massive explosion, strong enough to even hurt the dragons.
Yes, with spirits being the life of the world this is a stupid thing to do, but the selfish king/priest can't see spirits and clearly fail to see the ramification of using this down the line.

@edamame : not yet.

@OraOraApril19 : From a recent chapter of a different manga :

@WhimsiCat :
If I recall it is also considered a forbidden magic by pretty much every other nation even the major human one(s)

But what do you expect from people who invented a prophecy to start a war, and want revenge for being told no and resisted by the nation that they keep invading and being booted from. Thy are basically looking for revenge for being allowed to exist.

what fuck.
So does Ruri go full exterminatus when the beloved spirits get consumed by the rock? (And probably also to protect Ruri)

@lurker123: It's been a while so I had to go re-read the chapter
Basically after sending the dragons off to the war, Ruri felt uneasy

So she went with Joshua and the spy group to capture the king and the high priest.

Kotarou is here by now in his new body, and during the search (Joshua tell Ruri to sit back since if anything happen to her he's totally dead) Kotarou mention there's a part of the castle where his power have a hard time reaching.

As they get closer to where this weird power (and likely the high priest) is, Kotarou finally identifies it as the spirit-killing magic.
Basically, magic normally use the magic of the user + the spirit's power to cause the effect.
However humans don't have much magic, and they came up with the spirit-killing magic to forcefully extract the missing amount from the world.
If there's any lesser spirits nearby, they'd have their power drained away and basically die.

So the lesser spirits are told to stay back, Kotarou say higher spirits like him aren't affected so he tag along.

They eventually find the priests in hiding, fighting happen but even without being able to use magic the dragons are still physically stronger than the priests so it's an easy win.

Ruri then spotted the high priest and proceed to claw the shit out of his face.
At which point he grabbed one of THAT and threw it at Ruri.

Explosion.

Ruri is fine because Kotarou already made a wind barrier to protect her, just the impact sent her (being cat size atm) flying back.

After quickly subduing the high priest, they found a bunch of THAT and realize how dangerous it is if these are used in the war.
Joshua quickly try to inform the groups at the front.

In the mean time, while Ruri and Joshua are wondering how to deal with these boxes of THAT, Kotarou just tell them to shove it in Rydia's space, since THAT won't activate in there.
So they did.

Then Ruri did her revenge on the king and high priest (sadly it's not a lethal one)



Mean while back at the frontline.
Finn, the dragon who tried to at least maybe convince Asahi (nope) realized he's still alive despite the explosion from Asahi throwing THAT happening close to him.
Opening his eyes he found layer of water barrier protecting him.
Rin then made her entrance.
Basically earlier Ruri also heard that the king/high priest plan to let Asahi and the prince die in this war (i.e. suicide bombing with THAT), so Ruri sent Rin over to keep an eye on things.

Rin then basically deal with the issue by isolating anyone with THAT in a water bubble, then it's back to easy victories.


tl;dr You think there's going to be serious dramas? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Thanks for the preview.

Ya never know, loads of authors make very bad decisions or 180s suddenly out of nowhere/with editorial influence. Just because its unlikely doesn't mean its impossible

If I recall, Jade had gotten permission from the leaders of the other great nations to finally destroy the summoning nation (the dragon kingdom and other nations can not expand their borders without everyone's approval) so they are likely about to face he prospect of a fate worse then death from their perspective, life as a commoner.
