The 29th episode of the The Magical Monster High School Drama! series. Released 14th of Mar, we conclude the Sir Tool Arc with Zero, Kiera and Móts fighting the dragon, and being ambushed on the way back to school plane.

Plot
The Green Dragon breathes noxious gas down on Zero. She blinks, but seems unharmed, while Kiera coughs. Zero seems to not expect this, and calls out in draconic her first name, berating this new dragon’s rudeness and replying with her own flaming breath weapon. She misses completely, however, and the new dragon, hereafter known as 'Greenie', lands and batters into Zero. She snaps at them, and they wrestle while Kiera makes a couple of attempts to attacks Greenie with his halberd. This fails, so instead Kiera makes an explosion that causes a chunk of the ceiling to come off, and also catches the Green Dragon but not Zero in the explosionundefined.

Greenie decides to take off after Kiereniel and rises into the air after him. Zero also gives chase, and an aerial battle ensues. It ends when Kiera causes the green to need to land promptly with another of his characteristic explosions. Zero tells him to stop interfering and he protests he was helping. She shouts in Draconic to Greenie to yield, and follows them as they land on the volcano ledge. As they no longer seems aggressive, Zero just continues taunting them to yield.

Kiera is suddenly compelled by the princess to attack once more, and he cripples Greenie with an explosion. Zero yells at him as an avalanche begins. She swoops in to rescue the other dragon and pulls them out. The princess demands more explosions, while Kiera argues the opposite. Kiera says they should leave, and Zero begins sneaking out of the bowl of the volcano, dragging Greenie. Kiera makes a distraction, declaring that he is a great mighty Angel of Destruction. He then makes an explosion behind the princess, with some debris flying out towards her to emphasise his point. As Zero leaves, Kiera manages to grab the princess and carries her off to the keep on the other side of the mountain as the volcano rumbles ominously.

Inside the keep, after dropping the princess, he finds about a dozen dead knights and several of the signet rings Sir Tool had asked them to seek out. Kiera takes this opportunity to loot the bodies, while the princess walks over to the corner and begins sulking. He finds something like 600 gold, in various currencies including electrum, as well as some pretty good weapons, some enchanted. The weapons are mainly longswords, four of which are magical. A +1 weapon, flametongue, keenblade, and a holy weapon. And a pocket javelin, that appears to only be the size of a pencil but which can be extended. He also finds a small totem similar to a chess pawn, a few gemstones, some magical, and a holy symbol.

It seemed that Zero and Greenie were out of danger, and had gone down the mountain a little. Once it seems like Greenie might be able to recover here on their own, Zero asserts dominance by declaring her victory once more before flying up to the keep, and meeting back up with Kiera. She takes off once more to try and find Móts, who had strangely went AWOL with Elizabeth during the fight with Greenie, but fails and regroups. She and Kiera decide to leave the plane with the princess while they can, seeing that their objective here is no complete.

Zero and Kiera deliberate on how to approach the village with the portal, considering that the denizens had attacked Zero last time they were there, and decide to land in a copse of trees about an hours walk from the village for their safety. The princess, being a spoilt brat, refuses to walk, so Zero picks the indignant brat up and chucks her over her shoulder. As they approach the village, they realise that it looks completely deserted. This is very eerie, no animals, no nothing. Some tarped huts outside the walls. Kiera has an idea, and makes a projection of an eldritch dragon beast appear over the village and circle. Nothing happensundefined. He has the projection fly away and disappear. They conclude that the village is deserted, and safe to enter.

They walk in, the 'angel' carrying the princess, and Zero in her human form. There is complete silence. As they walk past the dead market, Kiera notices a tiny red light appear on Zero’s forehead. He points it out, and she brushes her face, with no effect. Then Zero’s head explodes. Gore splatters the 'angel', who stands, stunned and shocked. The headless corpse slumps to its knees, then falls to the ground.

Kiereniel has no idea what to do. He looks around, lost, then recalls there was a noise like a clap at the same time as Zero was decapitated. From the direction of the church. Kiera blows it to hell, then, exclaiming “You saved me once, I can… try to save you!”, he grabs the corpse and begins moving towards the portal. He notices a strange ring of trenches around it, and notes they may be explosive filled.
