Chapter 195 - Allen Cell and Political Marriage [46] (1/2)

195. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [46]

Zack, who suddenly appeared in front of us, had completely changed from before and unleashed tremendous hostility.

「Zack, you!」

「Zahaha! I found you at last!」

He held up his greatsword, which was as tall as him, and thrust it into the earth.

「Eat this, Blaze Circle!」

At that moment, a circular scorching flame, with Zack at the center, blazed.

「Wha!? GUAAAA!」

Due to the omnidirectional attack, screams came from all over the place.

「Damnit!」

I immediately stood in front of everyone and mustered the remaining spiritual power I had left and developed a shield of darkness.

However,

「What…?」

The flame directed at us had no『heat』in it.

It was like a『superficial flame』merely for the sake of looking like a flame.

「Zahaha! That was quite flashy even for me!」

Zack, who disorganised his allies’ formation by burning the members of the Organization, laughed uncouthly.

「Why did you…?」

「Nothing much really. I just thought it would be a waste to lose sparkly in a place like this. Now, cut me down and go. Just don’t kill me, will you?」

Apparently, he’s just putting on an act to help us.

「…Thank you.」

「Zahaha, didn’t you say『I won’t say thank you』?」

「See you then.」I replied to Zack, with a light smile.

「Aa, we’ll meet again elsewhere,『Extraordinary Sparkly』!」

After bidding farewell, I pulled out the sword fastened at my waist and slashed his chest shallowly.

「Kafu…」

A shallow sword wound ran across his chest, and Zack slowly fell face first.

And then,

「Z-Zack… was done in with only one blow!?」

「Shit… Wasn’t Allen Rodore supposed to be extremely exhausted!?」

The members surrounding us at a distance were bewildered.

「Now is our chance, let’s go!」

We didn’t miss the opportunity that Zack created, and pushed forward greatly.

When the main entrance of Belios Castle came into sight,

「Emergency announcement. Invasion of enemy forces led by『Special Class Force』Allen Rodore has been confirmed. The location is in front of Belios Castle. All swordsmen living in the capital should immediately intercept him.」

An emergency broadcast rang with a loud warning sound.

At the same time, a tremendous number of swordsmen rushed out of the houses in the city.

「T-This is…!?」

They numbered several tens of thousands. Our entire field of view was filled with『people』and『swords』.

「A-Allen… What should we do!?」

「No matter what we do, it’s impossible to handle this number!」

In front of the overwhelming『violent numbers』, Ria and Rose turned pale.

「I-Is there anything we can do!?」

「It looks like this is the end, though…」

Lilim-senpai fell into a state of half-panic, and Ferris-senpai’s shoulders drooped, half giving up.
