Please get me out of this BL novel...I'm straight! novel Chapter 555

"Y-Your Highness!" a knight shouted, his voice cracking with fear as he tried to reach for Florian—but the moment he moved, the crowd behind him erupted again.

"WATCH OUT!"

Stampeding.

Florian flinched as the sound of chaos surged back to life, like a tidal wave crashing through the hall.

The relief everyone felt at seeing Azure was gone—ripped away the second the red dragon's burning gaze locked onto him.

And Florian?

He couldn't move.

He stood frozen, his wide eyes reflecting the fiery glow pouring through the broken wall.

The dragon's roar tore through the air like thunder. It leaned back, wings spreading wide, and then—it flew straight toward him.

The screams grew deafening.

'Is it… going to kill me?' Florian thought numbly, his whole body trembling as his heart pounded painfully against his ribs.

Outside, Azure roared—a desperate, furious sound. The blue dragon hurled himself toward the red beast, claws outstretched. But the red dragon was already too close.

The air split open with a gust so powerful it nearly knocked Florian backward. His hair whipped around his face, the heat burning against his skin.

Only then did his mind start to catch up.

'Fuck—'

He took a step back, his shaking legs finally responding, ready to run—

But he was too late.

The red dragon's tail crashed into the wall beside him, tearing through stone and marble like paper.

BOOOOM—!!

The entire section of the hall collapsed inward, debris exploding everywhere.

The crowd screamed.

"WE'RE GOING TO DIE!"

"RUN! RUN FASTER, PLEASE—PLEASE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"

Florian stumbled as dust and smoke filled his lungs. The air was thick with the sound of chaos—crashing, shrieking, weeping.

And then he heard it.

Crack.

His head jerked slightly, but he couldn't look back. He couldn't.

Still, he heard them.

"HELP! HELP!"

Voices. Dozens. Hundreds. Desperate cries buried under the roar of terror and collapsing stone. People were being crushed, trampled beneath each other in the narrow halls.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry—!" someone sobbed from behind him, a whisper swallowed by the next horrifying crunch.

Florian's breath trembled. His hands shook violently, but his eyes stayed fixed on the hole in the wall.

The red dragon's claws clamped against the marble, smoke and embers curling from its nostrils as it leaned closer.

Its glowing red eyes locked on him again.

"Are you here to kill me?" Florian whispered, his voice small, his throat dry. He tried to tune out the horror behind him, the sounds of people dying—anything but the monster in front of him.

The dragon didn't hesitate.

Its long, barbed tail coiled back, and in one swift movement, it lunged—aiming straight for him.

Florian's body froze again, but his eyes widened when he saw Azure.

From behind the red dragon, the blue dragon was charging energy—his chest glowing with that fierce, familiar light.

Azure was going to breathe fire.

'Azure, no—!'

He realized it too late. Azure's blast would hit the red dragon—but it would hit him too.

Still, he stood there.

Better to be burned than pierced through.

He squeezed his eyes shut. His heart hammered wildly, each beat echoing in his ears. He braced himself—for the pain, for the fire, for death.

But instead—

The ground trembled.

Then a blinding explosion erupted from in front of him, the sound so sharp it rattled his skull. The heat vanished. The pressure lifted.

And then—

"Who the fuck do you think you are," a cold voice thundered, "to come here, to my palace…"

Florian's eyes flew open.

That voice.

That voice.

"…and try to kill Florian?"

Florian's breath caught in his throat. "Heinz…" he whispered, stunned.

He was there.

Heinz.

Standing in front of him—broad shoulders framed by the chaos, his cloak whipping in the wind, his eyes burning with fury that made even the fire outside seem dim.

One arm was extended, a faint golden light glowing around his hand. The air shimmered—Heinz's magic, thick and alive, pressing against the remnants of the explosion.
