Chapter 101 - Volume 10 (1/2)
The shining moon became invisible behind the crowd of ash dragons.
There’s likely over 100 figures that could be seen. And at the center of it all is the white dragon, the appearance of Freed Bagua could be seen riding it’s back.
[Don’t think less of us. Dividing up the enemy forces is a standard technique in battles]
Shia and Mikhail had just disappeared into the transfer gate “Field Pierce” made through space magic. Then Freed ordered the black eagle force to pursue them, as they passed by they glared and trash talked Yue who was stationary.
Although there wasn’t any signs of wind magic being used at all, to the appearance that floats in the skies just like the moon that floats in the nocturnal sky, a smile appeared even when their reactions were heard, Yue is only quietly staring at Freed expressionlessly.
Freed is a proud Majinzoku, rather than looking at others equally, they’re looked down upon. He is a pious believer in their Majinzoku God whom they worship, he’s the type of man that would not accept any other way of life or values.
Hence, it was impossible that he would have an interest in a woman from another race. However, that Freed is now, while the ash dragons and his subordinates were still blocking the true moon, to the girl with a pretty face that shines just like the moon, felt charmed with the thoughts “It would be regrettable if such a gem were killed”.
With those thoughts, although he understands it’s necessary to kill Hajime, and though he holds hatred because his brethren were killed, still, foolish words came out of his mouth.
[How regrettable. …..Woman, as a spellcaster, no matter how much I want the ability to cast magic without chants, though this may be reckless in this situation. How about it? Will you join me? We won’t treat you badly just because you’re a woman]
Towards Freed’s invitation, Yue’s reply was….
[…..Fu~, come back after being reborn. Ugly man]
It was indescribably severe, a reply of severe sarcasm mixed with ridicule was returned.
By the way, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration that Freed’s figure if evaluated by ten people, every one of them would agree that he was a good-looking man. Combined with his vast powers, he was extremely popular to the Majinzoku women. Therefore, he’s not an ugly man at all.
However, Yue saw Freed’s desolate expression at the [Mountain of Great Flames] when he talked about his god, in her memory it was awful and sickening. Such a man, invited her with a clarified face. The only thing seen was already just a sickening foolish man. To begin with, she doesn’t feel anything for any other man but Hajime, so it was nothing but foolish talk to begin with.
When Yue’s response was heard, Freed’s eyes twitched and cramped up.
[Have you chosen your path as a martyr? Or, because of your loyalty to this country? Discard your teachings, do not simply follow a country in blind faith, do you plan on sacrificing your life for those kinds of things? That is the highest reaches of stupidity. Once you know of our god, “Aruvu-sama’s” teachings. Then, you’ll be purified after just closing your eyes just once!?]
To Freed who began blabbering on about unrelated topics, Yue simply answered by rapidly firing out Wind Blades. It was merely because she couldn’t endure hearing him babble on any longer.
A spray of blood dances on the evening winds. Because Freed managed to dodge his body, the Wind Blades that Yue shot out only managed to cut his shoulder shallowly. Immediately, Freed was able to react to the Wind Blades, he was definitely one of the few great people who conquered a labyrinth. If not, he would have lost an arm immediately.
To Freed who was glaring at her with anger, Yue only returned it with a cool gaze. Then, she announced to the foolish looking demon leader.
[…….Your question is unnecessary. The moment you hurt Hajime, you were already sentenced to death in agony]
As if the words were a signal, extremely cold ice and snow blew around Yue.
It instantly turned into a huge tornado, it climbed up towards the heavens as it surrounded Yue. A white storm which connected the heavens to the ground, the surrounding temperature is quickly reduced to absolute zero, the ash dragons which were blocking the moon were completely frozen.
This was a compound magic of ice at a superlative degree in the system attack magic “Frozen Prison” along with the intermediate wind system attack magic “Storm Emperor” which created a wide range tornado at absolute zero temperatures.
Almost like a mammoth being frozen instantaneously due to the climate change that brought upon the glacial epoch, the ash dragons all died without damage to their exterior, they fell and crashed onto the ground, breaking their bodies into pieces. It appears that their insides were completely frozen as red crystals of blood bounced around on the earth.
[Did you not hear me. ……Guess there’s no helping it. Shoot her down!]
Freed who lost nearly 20 ash dragons instantly, ordered the attack while gritting his teeth. As a result, the ash dragons all deploy together from all directions, top and bottom, they shot out aurora’s disorderly from every direction.
As if they were meteor showers, over 100 aurora’s were shot out in the night sky. The dark night was torn up by the flash of lights, as if the spellcaster in the center was committing suicide, an absolute zero blizzard blew out and raged like a flower pinholder.
From the impact of the countless auroras, the tornado of ice and snow dispersed as if melting in the air. The scattered ice and snow created a spiral, what appeared from the center was the appearance of Yue who was wounded from the powerful blast….actually no, it was an unhurt Yue accompanied by the black swirling star which circled around her.
Without wasting a second, over 100 aurora’s were once again seen after they confirmed the small enemy was still there.
However, the matchless lights of death which would normally eliminate everything, one after another is swallowed into the black star that was tossed around by Yue, or bent and reflected outwards towards the horizon, none of them reached her at all.
Yue used gravity magic to further increase her altitude. While being exposed to countless auroras, there is no unrest in her expression at all. “Exceeding Curse” was used to swallow up everything and “Cursed Sky” was used to move the ball of extreme gravity, as if it were a protection satellite orbiting and defending the moon.
[The breaths are uneffective, directly swat her down! Go!]
To Freed’s change of strategy, the ash dragons didn’t lag behind at all and followed the orders obediently. While releasing the roar of a dragon, murderous intent was shown in its eyes from wanting to tear up the slender girl with its sharp claws and teeth.
They intended to attack in waves. Yue’s environment was immediately buried under the gray crowd of ash dragons.
Yue who was being confronted didn’t worry at all at the incoming ash dragon’s murderous intent, she calmly closed her eyes. While deeply concentrating. It could be said that it was convenient for the ash dragons that she wasn’t moving, their claws expand, and their strong jaws spread open.
At the moment where they thought that it would be impossible to escape death, while facing them, Yue’s eyes opened up! And then, her lovely thin lips voiced out.
[“Beheading Threads*I think? ??*(cut)”]
At that moment, their world shifted in unison (. . .).
Like a mirror which had cracked, countless lines are drawn out in the open space, the lines were purposely made adjacent to the starting point. And then, the ash dragons which were coming in succession into the cracked space, after stiffening for an instant, fell to the ground while hearing the sound of their scattering and spraying blood from their cut body parts that came into contact with the broken space.
Space magic “Beheading Threads”. Through cracking space and moving it, it’s a no brainer that it’s a magic that will cut apart any object.
By Yue’s unseeable cutting magic, more than 30 ash dragons died without being able to do anything but scream out their last moments. Freed’s expression trembles from the activation of space magic, motion speed, and development scale that were far from what he could do.
[What great ability. ….By chance, are you one of the people chosen by God! If that’s so, then you’re rejection of my proposal is understandable]
Freed sweats a good amount while nodding in consent, Yue, [This misunderstanding imbecile, it’s extremely sickening though….], anyone could understand that she had an unpleasant expression.
[……What a joke. Whenever I fight, it’s always for Hajime’s sake. Don’t place me in the same group as you]
Towards the harsh words, Freed whose personality holds the gods in high esteem, love and respect, (he couldn’t imagine it) and became expressionless. It appears that mentioning that was taboo for Freed.
[Rejoice. I won’t be saying anymore than this. We’ll kill you and I will throw your corpse in front of that man. If I step on it, it may provoke some unrest. At that time, it would be that man’s end]
[….That mouth sure runs a lot. Can’t you just show it through your actions while being silent? Ugly man]
Towards the words that subdued his angry rant, multiple veins showed on Freed as he was ridiculed. Just as Yue had said, he decided to show it with actions.
But it was already seen at [Mountain of Great Flames], Freed issued instructions to a small bird-type demon that rode on his shoulder. Then, a part of the crowds of demons that had invaded and broke the outer wall of the Kingdom’s capital, surged towards Yue from the ground. It appears that they intend to attack from the ground.
Yue, while protecting herself from the ash dragon’s auroras with her gravity ball, summoned the “Thunder Dragon”. The golden dragon appeared from the dark clouds in the sky and let out a roar of lightning. It approached as the auroras from the ash dragons and Freed were being restrained by “Exceeding Curse”, the thunder dragon was then sent to wipe out the ground troops.
As usual, it was a no brainer that the thunder dragon’s mouth sucked in everything…..was what was supposed to happen, but the advance was stopped by 6 pairs of turtle-typed demon Abusodo*<-The demon-type’s name, maybe it means something? ????* that exceeded 5 meters in length. One of the huge Abusodos opened its big mouth and in reverse, actually started consuming the dragon instead.
Abusodo was also seen before with the Majinzoku woman named Cattleya at [Orcus Great Labyrinth], it’s a demon whose inherent magic is able to take in other magic into its body. However, the Abusodo that was consuming the thunder dragon on the ground was a different size from the Abusodo seen in the labyrinth. Most likely, it was improved and strengthened.
Still, as expected of the thunder dragon. Though it’s being swallowed by the Abusodo, with its large body, though slowly, it’s surely lifting it up. It appears that the limitation of only being able to swallow one type of magic hasn’t been changed yet. Even if the thunder is being swallowed, it cannot swallow the gravity magic.
The 6 Abusodos were gradually floating and they flailed around hastily, before their big bodies were carried off by the thunder dragon, another Abusodo began to swallow the gravity magic. As expected, the thunder dragon couldn’t endured the 2 strengthened Abusodo’s with their inherent magic “Magic Storing”, the body of the thunder dragon was consumed.
Immediately after that, the compressed magic was launched at Yue.
[…..Annoying]
Just like an anti-aircraft homing missile was launched from the ground, it accurately attacked Yue. Yue who was using the gravity ball to the best of her abilities to block the ash dragons and white dragon’s auroras, immediately evaded by “falling” from the sky.
[Fu~, I understood that you used strange thunder system magic. As long as Abusodo is here, your magic will be sealed off]
Freed laughs while grinning. However, Yue isn’t particularly worried, only quietly observing the Abusodos, only after a short time, her eyes wandered in the sky while thinking something and then concentrated on them again.
[Are you trying to tear space again? I won’t be giving you that kind of time!]
The white dragon and ash dragons further increased the severity of their attacks, a black panther typed demon approached by kicking off the ground and into the sky.
Although the storm of aurora’s were blocked by the gravity ball, most of Yue’s consciousness was used to construct another magic, her movements were lacking compared to before. There, the appearance of the black panther approached quickly from the ground, it began releasing countless tentacles*lol there always needs to be some kind of tentacle monster when against a girl*, furthermore, its sharp claws also bypassed the gravity ball which was focused on preventing the auroras from hitting.
Between offense and defense, countless wounds appear on Yue’s body, red blood splashes in the night sky. However, because it was only a flesh wound, it wasn’t much of a problem. To begin with what is Yue’s true defensive powers, certainly not barriers nor gravity balls. It was the cheating “Regeneration Power”.
A barrier would be placed if there was a companion, or evaded if the attack will cause clothes to tear because it would be a nuisance, originally she would just disregard the other parties attacks and leave it up to her regeneration powers, Yue’s true battle style was simply, one-sidedly attacking.
To Yue who was spraying blood, Freed’s expression was that of one who was convinced of their victory, when Yue’s wound was automatically restored, his eyes could only open widely in astonishment.
[Is that also an Age of God’s magic? Just exactly how many have you acquired!]
Although he wasn’t completely wrong, while voicing out his misunderstanding to Yue, he gave out orders for all demons to continue attacking until they beat her recovery rate. And then, Freed also started chanting an Age of God’s magic.
However, naturally, Yue was already concentrating on her magic previously. Yue’s eyes opened up and showed strength, in the space of the thundering roars and flashes, her lovely voice resounded.
[“Five Heavenly Dragons”]
Immediately afterwards, dark clouds appear and the thunder roared, the swirling wind turns into a storm and blew harshly, the water currents produced were frozen into ice, a gray cloud of sand took shape like a big snake, and flames strong enough to burn up the atmosphere were condensed.
As a result, the appearance of 5 demonic dragons were seen in the night sky of the Kingdom’s capital. Although they were dragons created from gravity magic, they all had their own respective attributes.
Gooaaaaaa~!!!
