Chapter 55 (2/2)
「Iori」
Elvie said his friend's na clearly irritated
「What now!?」
「Take Marca and Aru and get out of here, right now! Then find a teacher and tell the on here no matter what it takes」
「I know thatto do!? Even the co down!」
「That thingfor Marca!」
In response to Elvi's words, the Spirit Eater's tentacles attacked in unison
In that ical power
「Purify, and protect!」
Mikoto says with a high-pitched voice, raising her hands forward There, in that moment, an invisible as erected between the monster and them
As soon as the tentacles hit the invisible wall, they
For the first time, the Spirit Eater looks to be irritated
However, beads of sweat come down Mikoto's forehead as she looks to be in a lot of pain
「My er」
「Onii-chan!!」
Marca shakes with tears welling up in her eyes, while Elvie takes out his sword and his gun He casts a quick glance at Marca and s anywhere!」
「shi+t, we're going! And we're going right now! Aru! Marcchan!」
「No ------!!」
「Senpai!!」
Iori runs away, holding the struggling Marca in his hands and taking Aru's hand
At the same time, the barrier created by Mikoto breaks down and the tentacles try to eat them instantly
They cut the eaten alive
The Spirit Eater are of the fact that its prey was trying to get away, and send a flood of tentacles to intercept them
「Like I would ever let you to do that」
He raised the gun with a loud click
In that ical poas released froh he blacked out for just a split of a second On the contrary, he was able to fire the un created by Elvie and Mikoto run solely on
In other words, it needed no ic from the atmosphere to work
Therefore, once the bullet is released, it goes straight towards its target, even if the surroundings are turned into teical vacuum The bullet would simply turn into pure shockwave in that situation
Like that, Elvie blew out the tentacles that were chasing after Iori
The crawling Spirit Eater made an unpleasant noise
For the first time, it looked Elvie in the eye
He broke into a cold sweat, as it dripped down his neck
Before he realized it, he was speaking to Mikoto in a shaky voice
「The main body moves slowly, but he covers that with those small tentacles Once they bite you, it's all over」
「Do you think these people… Are they…?」
Elvie nodded his head, after casting a quick glance at the students who fell onto the ground
「It's over once it puts you into itsleft out of my Father」
「Mikoto, think we can win this?」
「It's still young, but this power…… There are liured as much」
From what Elvie saw in the archives of Hunters Guild, the Spirit Eater was a Rank 1 hest class would be deployed to dispose of it
Mikoto's expression stiffens as well, so ht
They couldn't afford to just look from the sides any spirit
「But, let us live through this」
「Yeah」
「I cannot use, un is, our truer that」
Mikoto shakes her wand, andthe sweat off his forehead, Elvie was getting himself ready to rush at the Spirit Eater However,
He saw so unbelievable
「El-senpai! Mi-san!」
It was Aru, who should have already evacuated by now He was running towards the in the wind
「Aru!?」
「What are you doing!!」
Elvie yelled with anger while trying to rush to Aru's side
Thetowards Aru stopped
It looked like they were searching for so
Then, after the main bodyand its rin
「I knew it, their target is Aru!」
Hearing Mikoto's ragged breath so towards Aru all at once
Elvie took out his gun, but the distance was siun, but they were too far away fro that a mere ten-year-old could possibly hope to escape fro he could do
Then, for a mere moment, he could see it
He couldn't be certain, but Aru's expression becaht and cheerful self
And then Aru put one hand on the bracelet he was alearing and removes it
Then he tuned his hand towards the mass of black tentacles and said:
「INFERNO」
Just as he said, there was nothing to worry about
In this space which was supposed to be devoid ofthe stor flames that burned the monsters to cinders
It only lasted for ain awe, Aru walked over to hi it up until now」
Aru brushed his hair, showing them red bunches that were mixed in between the rest of his hair
「But, you were always the ones who protected me So this time……」
「Aru……」
「Goodbye」
Aru s down his cheek, and then he was enveloped in a bright, golden light
When the bright light finally subsided, a co in front of the neck and tail, along with a long and thin head
Mouth filled with rows of sharp fangs
Colored red, this figure was a dragon, without a shred of doubt
Seeing this ie shook Elvie to his very core, while some sort of distant memory awakened deep inside of him
Shocked and overcome with a sudden headache, Elvie drops onto his knees, and the creature lowered its head down as if thinking about soan to crawl all over his body yet again
「…! Aru!!!」
Even though Elvie tried to call hion covered in black tentacles did not look behind hi to rise up
The next thing that Elvie was able to see after all the dust and wind settled doas the appearance of a dragon heading towards the forest, while drawing the attention of monsters towards himself
