The Fiery Dragon Mountain was located south of Toristine and north of Romania.
This unbroken chain of mountains was, in fact, the border between Toristine, Romania, and Galmania.
Rumor had it that the mountain range used to be a beautiful place. However, during the Mythological Era, the ancestor Blimir fought with the powerful "Calamity" here. Although the ancestor successfully destroyed the "Calamity", the aftermath of the battle turned the mountain range into a barren land.
When Eight-cloud Ink and the others passed by the Fiery Dragon Mountain Range in the airship, Eight-cloud Ink paid special attention to the area below.
The entire mountain range was barren and the main peak was a volcano.
The scorching heat wave enveloped the entire mountain range. Eight-cloud Ink immediately thought of the Fiery Mountain.
At that time, Eight-cloud Ink only felt that the landscape was too desolate. At the same time, it was strange when it saw a town at the foot of the mountain.
Building a town at the foot of a volcano? Weren't they afraid that the volcano would erupt one day?
In the end, Louise explained it to them.
Although the volcano in the Fiery Dragon Mountain Range was still an active volcano, it had not erupted for hundreds of years.
Countless scholars speculated that the volcano in the Fiery Dragon Mountain Range was not in danger of erupting in the next two hundred years.
Although they did not understand how the scholars came to this conclusion, Eight-cloud Ink speculated that the existence of the "Calamity" might have interfered with the scholars' judgment in this world after learning from Volkanik that the "Calamity" was under the mountain range.
In other words, the volcano could erupt at any time.
The town at the foot of the mountain belonged to the Romanian Empire.
Therefore, after learning about Volkanik's conclusion, Louise asked Vittorio if they should inform the residents of the town to take refuge.
However, after careful consideration, Vittorio decided to keep the news a secret for now. At the same time, he personally led a group of people to the Fiery Dragon Mountain Range.
Although they knew that Vittorio had his own considerations, Louise and the others were still unhappy with this decision.
It was only because of their reverence for the Pope that the girls suppressed the strange thoughts in their hearts.
Due to the large number of people this time, their speed was slowed down. Therefore, they only arrived at the foot of the main peak of the Fiery Dragon Mountain Range after close to five days.

"It's so hot …"
In the campsite, Louise was sweating profusely with a bitter face.
"I didn't feel it when I was in the sky the last time, but now that I'm close to it, I feel really hot …"
Turning her head, she saw Eight-cloud Ink still wearing that luxurious black Taoist robe. Louise pursed her lips.
"Yagyun, why don't you feel hot dressed like this?"
"Impervious to heat and cold."
Eight-cloud Ink shook its head.
"As a matter of fact, even Shesta can do this."
The girls were stunned and turned to look at Shesta. Sure enough, she was still wearing the maid outfit that was not suitable for this place. At the same time, she did not feel hot at all.
"Yayun is so biased!!"
Louise immediately began to grumble in dissatisfaction.
The girls all smiled, and Vittorio, who opened the tent's curtain and walked in, happened to see Louise grabbing Eight-cloud Ink's sleeve in a fit of anger.
"Everyone, we're about to go up the mountain. Are you ready?"
"Anytime." Eight-cloud Ink looked at Vittorio. "How are you going to investigate?"
"I'll have to rely on Your Excellency Yakumo's Gandaluf for this."
"Hmm? What do you mean? "
Vittorio smiled mysteriously.
"This time, we've brought the secret treasure of the Holy Church. It's a 'craft' that our ancestor summoned from the distant Eastern Desert through a portal!"
"Huh?"
"We call it the Spear. Our ancestor left a message that the Spear is a very powerful weapon, but we can't use it. So, we hope that Your Excellency Yakumo can use the Gandaluf to use those weapons. "
"And then?"
Eight-cloud Ink immediately became interested in the mysterious weapon that Vittorio mentioned. Could it be a weapon summoned from another world like the Staff of Destruction?
Vittorio's eyes became sharper. "We hope that Your Excellency Yakumo can use those weapons and Miss Valliere's Void Magic to eliminate the 'calamities' in the Fire Dragon Mountain Range!"
"Not to investigate … but to eliminate the danger before it erupts?"
"Yes!"
Vittorio nodded.
"This is the best way! Although we didn't find anything unusual when we investigated the Fire Dragon Mountain Range, we also know that all the lava under the mountain range gathers under the main peak. "
"So, if the calamities really exist in the Fire Dragon Mountain Range, they must be at the main peak!"
"Use my … power?"
Louise pointed at herself blankly.
"Your Holiness, you mean, you want me to …?"
"Yes, Miss Valliere." Vittorio looked at Louise. "Your power is the key."
"Now, everyone, follow me to see the mysterious weapon summoned by our ancestor!"
⑧
As Eight-cloud Ink expected, the weapons summoned by Blimir were indeed the weapons of the human race in the technological world.
Louise and the others didn't understand, but Eight-cloud Ink and Patrice recognized them at a glance.
Tiger tanks, AK assault rifles, machine guns, and so on.
In addition to the weapons, Eight-cloud Ink even found a katana.
"These things …"
Eight-cloud Ink looked at the so-called holy objects and shook her head.
"What's wrong? Your Excellency Yakumo? "
"I don't think these things can eliminate the calamities that are rumored to be able to destroy the world. Or rather, if the calamities can't even block these things, then it's not true."
"Oh? Why do you say that? " Vittorio wasn't dissatisfied with Eight-cloud Ink's belittling of the holy objects. After Vokanik appeared, Vittorio's attitude toward Eight-cloud Ink had changed a little.
"I recognize these things. They're humans from another world. Perhaps they're the weapons created by the humans in Shasta's grandfather's hometown to use in their own internal conflicts."
"In other words, these weapons were originally created to attack humans, not some powerful calamities."
"Now, do you think they'll still be useful?"
Eight-cloud Ink turned her head and looked at Vittorio with a half-smile.
Louise and the other girls had been curiously walking around the weapons. They touched them here and there and exclaimed from time to time.
"This …"
Vittorio was suddenly put in a difficult position.
"Then, do you have any other ideas, Your Excellency Yakumo?"
He looked up at the desolate Fire Dragon Mountain Range not far away.
"The fire element here is very dense, and the calamities are already here."
Eight-cloud Ink didn't doubt Vokanik's judgment.
"The reason it hasn't appeared is very likely because it's not powerful enough. It needs to absorb more fire element."
"If that's the case …"
With a wave of her sleeve, Eight-cloud Ink walked toward the Fire Dragon Mountain Range alone.
"As long as it can't smoothly accumulate power, it can be forced out."
"When it comes out, everything will be fine!"
