Will the Re-Summoned Hero Live as an Ordinary Person Chapter 54

The Hydra's range of action is limited.

Second head defeated.

Souta pierces the second head, giving it a finishing blow, and after that, he looks at the last head that's fighting Narasu.
It looks like Narasu hurt her leg, as her movement lacks its previous fluidity. She uses her rapier like a cane to make up for the loss of mobility from her injury.

The Hydra spits out acidic liquid, and it's aimed at Narasu’s leg.

She avoids it somehow, but every time she moves, the wounds slowly gets larger.
As it only has one head left, the processing speed that originally split into three now fused back into one, and the movement of Hydra is better than it was in the beginning skirmish.

Acid flies to the spot where Narasu going to land.

She tries to move right away, but the pain in her leg is preventing that.

However, Souta embraces Narasu, preventing the acid from hitting her with his barrier.

「You endured it well, leave the rest to me.」

As Souta approaches the Hydra, it spews more acid.

Unlike the breath from the middle head, it seems like there is no need to accumulate the acid in its mouth first, the Hydra spits out acid at Souta one after another.

In the first round of fighting, it, together with the left head, only attacked by biting at Souta.
Of course, no answer comes from the Hydra. It only keeps attacking Souta with acid.

Hydra’s heads have different breath on each one, however, since the magic needed to produce the breath comes from the body, only one head can use the breath.
After becoming a seven-headed hydra, its magic power would also grow larger, making it possible to use the breath with two or more heads. But for a three-headed hydra, this is the limit.

「If this keeps going, I won’t have any footholds…… Should I end it soon?」

The swung sword hits the acid, freezing it. It then drops to the ground as a single lump without splashing other acids.

As the distance between them shrinks, Souta throws an iron sword he takes out of the Dimensional Storage.

While the Hydra also avoids this one, it gives priority to evasion, effectively stopping the rapid fire acid attack.

The throwing speed far exceeds what a normal person is capable of, not to mention each and every weapon thrown at the Hydra is imbued with magic.

The Hydra can’t avoid all the attacks from Souta, those attacks deal some damage to the Hydra.
Souta gets closer to the Hydra while throwing the weapons.

The throwing ceases, realizing that the Hydra is trying to block with the remains of its left head while the right head is trying to spit more acid, Souta jumps, bringing him to the right head's eye level.

Souta uses his sword to pierce the right head and then releases the magic power inside it.
Not even able to voice its death throes, the head is encased in ice, and the left head also stops moving and falls at the same time.

「Fuhh, this thing was pretty strong. That was the first time I fought a dragon with multiple heads…… That went fairly well, I guess?」
After looking at the remains of the Hydra for a while, Souta goes to check on Narasu.

Narasu just finished applying restoration medicine she got from Souta on her injured leg.

Saying that, Narasu’s head droops.

It’s the truth, but the fact that she couldn't beat the opponent assigned to her and ended up being helped by Souta puts a weight on her mind.

However, the words squeezed out of her mouth don't deny Souta’s words.

「Next is, Dina. I have to release her soon.」

「Right, as I’ve only ever heard the story, I’m looking forward to talk to her.」
Because the crystal was originally stored in the king’s castle, it’s the first time for Narasu, who hadn't attended the unsealing ceremony to see it directly.

Avoiding the collapsed Hydra, they both approach the crystal, and Narasu gasps in surprise as they get closer to it.

Next is the sight of the sealed Dinarius, whose beauty gives off a translucent feeling. She looks fragile, but for some reason looks full of vitality.

The impression Narasu gets from looking at her is one that contradicts itself.

「Dinarius, it’s been a long time. For you to confine yourself in this place for so long, are you stupid or what… If Soldia knows, he might destroy the country himself you know.」

「I’ll free you now.」

Souta pours his magic into the crystal while imagining a connection for his magic power to reach the Memory Stone.

The magic power gathers on the Memory Stone and slowly spreads to the entirety of the Demon Crystal.

Once magic power fills the entire crystal, the crystal emits a sound with the crack that appears on it.

While waiting for that, a sound different from the sound of the crystal suddenly can be heard from behind the two.

「GROAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!」

Souta needs to keep adding magic to the crystal, while Narasu is still not fully recovered from her injury, and in the first place, it will hard for her to fight it herself.
The left and right heads are nowhere to be seen, they seem to have fused with the center head.

「That thing is…. This is quite a pinch.」
Souta turns his eyes to the Hydra, and sweat can be seen flowing on his forehead.

t/n: i’m back, yep definitely back, need time before i can handle the old release rate, but i’m back, which is the most important part
