114 Episode 114 "When I focused on one point of ancient word magic and swung around, it showed ridiculous sharpness.".txt (2/2)

Then I went from 'changing the area of effect of the magic' to 'calling' the wand. I was able to change the shape of the hose and the faucet itself at will.

It was said that it made it possible to use magic in a compressed and diffused state from the start. I asked the saintess to check that part for me to be sure.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. Do you intend to change the concept of magic in this world?

─ ─ The saintly woman gasped, but if you can use it, anything is fine.

''Activate 'Holy Wand' in the name of Nagi-sama's slave, Cecil-Falot.

Commanded to compress the magic range. 'Arrow of Fire'──reduce the diameter to the limit.'

In response to Cecil's voice, the 'True Holy Staff Noielut' flashed.

''──No compromise at all, no mercy at all.''

Then Cecil begins to chant the spell. The chanting is 'Ancient Language, Arrow of Fire'

He compresses it with ”True Holy Staff Noeloot”. He concentrates the effect on a single point.

''Just destroy. Annihilate. Burn everything and unleash the blade of the last days'...

A crimson magic circle appears at the tip of the True Holy Wand Noel Root.

From it, a thin - pencil-sized ”Arrow of Fire” is born.

However, it doesn't fly.

They stop at the tip of the wand as if the faucet had been turned off.

”'Spirit of fire, use your breath of a million to destroy my enemy...'

Cecil's chanting continues.

Each time it happens, a compressed 'arrow of fire' accumulates on the tip of the staff.

I continue to pour my magic power into Cecil. My faintly swollen chest is trembling, as if I'm nervous. Cecil, who has reached the last part of the chanting, turns around, looks at me and smiles as if to reassure me.

And then.

I'm going!　”Ancient Language Flame Arrow” ────!

Thud!

The impact came.

It wasn't a flaming arrow fired from the True Holy Wand Noel Root.

To put it another way, it was a mass of heat, as thin as a cord.

It was a line of burning heat born from countless flaming arrows strung together.

Come to think of it, it was in the original world. The one that made water gush out of a narrow hole and used it as a cutter. It was called a water jet.

If that's the case, this should be called 'Flame Jet'.

The 'Ancient Language Magic Flaming Arrow' generates hundreds of flaming arrows from the magic circle that Cecil creates. Right now, that magic circle is reduced to its limit by the power of the True Sacred Staff Noel Root. That's why the flaming arrows are popping out of the narrow muzzle, overlapping each other. All the flaming arrows draw the same trajectory.

The result is a line of heat, like a thin thread.

For me, I thought it was going to be a long, long sword of fire, but this one that was actually born was a heat ray.

It stretches from the tip of the True Sacred Staff Noel Root towards Hydra...

Through the tornado that Rafilia created, burning all the dust and smoke...

”GUOAAAAAAAAAAA!

The bullet landed at the base of Hydra's neck.

''GUA! GUOOO, GYAAAAA!

Hydra exclaims, shaking her head.

That's not surprising. I'm also surprised.

What kind of modern weapon is a heat ray tens of meters long?

''It's producing flaming arrows, and it's overly saturated with flaming spirits.

The saintly lady said.

''Because of that, it's as hot as level 7 magic 'Flame Lance' ...... No, it might be comparable to level 9 magic 'Flame Heat Hell (Inferno)'. It's not even close to cheating. I'm not sure how you can narrow down the area of effect and achieve the same output as high level magic by focusing hundreds of flaming arrows at a single point. If you get hit by that kind of thing, even Hydra...''

”GUAAAAAAAAAAAA!

It's unbearable, it seems.

Because the scorching rays of heat easily penetrated Hydra's scales and passed through to the other side.

And it's uninterrupted. The magic is still going on. The scorching rays of heat flood out from the tip of the staff and continue to scorch Hydra's body.

''Oh!　Look at the Heavenly Dragon's Breath!

There's either an adventurer or a guard shouting at the top of the ramparts.

Iris's direction is working well, too.

Behind us is the Heavenly Dragon's Head, which Iris made for us. Its mouth is wide open. It's like it's emitting these heat rays, it's staged. Above the dragon's head, the apparition of Her Ladyship is pointing at Hydra. ”Burn it down! Get rid of it! And image.

...... Cecil, are you okay?

Yes, sir.

In my arms, little Cecil nodded firmly.

''More importantly, Nagi-sama, would you please give ...... a name for this magic, ......?

Maintaining the heat ray, Cecil said.

'As the saint said, this is a new kind of magic, if ...... it was ...... that ...... Nagi-sama and I. It's ...... that I made. ......

Name or .......

You can use the compressed version of the ancient language magic 'Flaming Arrow', but when you say that, you'll want to give it a cool name: .......

''Then, I'll use the Flame Sword Magic 'Levatine'.

It's cool!

Cecil's eyes lit up as he said that.

''I understand Nagi-sama's 'neemingyusensu' very well. Now I feel at ease too.

Is it safe?

That can wait!　It is ......

Cecil turned red and looked forward.

I'm not going to be able to get it right.

I'm sure it's a burden, even though the magic consumption is less than the ”Ancient Language Magic Fireball”.

I'm sure it's just a matter of time before we get this done.

It's just that Hydra has stopped moving as well.

You're going to have to keep your magic going.

Yes. Do with me, as you please ...... Nagi-sama!

I picked up Cecil.

Cecil was still holding the 'True Holy Staff Noeloot' in front of him.

The heat ray of magic power is left out. The hydra is left to be pierced.

So, as it is──.

''A must-have, flaming sword magic 'Levatine'!

Even ────

My voice and Cecil's overlapped.

Bun.

I swung Cecil's body from side to side as I picked him up.

Fifteen degrees to the right. Continuing back to the middle, this time 15 degrees to the left.

The heat rays drew a beautiful fan shape in the dark night.

Scratch.

Without any resistance at all, the heat rays traveled from right to left...

The Hydra's nine heads were put together and cut off.

The heat ray emitted by Cecil penetrated the hydra. It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to find a way to get a good deal more information on this.

As expected of a level 9 magic, it had the same amount of heat as a level 9 magic.

It was a splendid cut.

Or rather, there was something wrong with it as magic.

After all the heads were chopped off, Hydra stood on her torso alone for a while, but eventually...

bang

And with a crash, he fell down.

He pushed the hydra!

...... That completes the quest.

I'm done fighting off Hydra, as well as the magic experiment. The magic was overpowered, but other than that, we stayed on schedule.

We didn't sustain any damage. The guards on the walls and the adventurers are in good spirits.

The only thing that seems to be in good spirits is the True Sacred Staff Noel Root, which is a vague, smoky feeling.

It's not as hot as before. But as expected, the load is too much.

It's impossible to use it continuously. I don't know what's going to happen to the reconstructed concept, and I really should only use it in an emergency.

Thanks for your help. Cecil.

...... Yes, Lady Nagi.

Cecil half-closes his eyes.

'When we get back, let's put everyone to rest and relax.

Then, saint, finish up, please.

”...... really does it.

You said you'd help me.

To begin with, it should have been agreed that the mastermind behind this event was going to be ”Saintess”.

The saint should have been in a good mood and accepted the job.

”Because, you guys are even more pushy than I thought.

Even if you say so.

''And no matter how much you say it, Delilira-san is too much of a great person, isn't she?　Aside from exposing the lies of the nobles, what kind of hero would call up a celestial dragon and kill Hydra in the blink of an eye by controlling its breath?　Why do I have to increase the legend of Delilira after she dies? ......'

You're a hero to begin with. A great man, right?　Saints.

”......

The saintly lady (the golem of entry) scratched her head with the tip of her wing, not seeming to be bothered.

It's just the way it is. I'm just getting on board. Delilira, I'll stay with you until the end!

From that point on, it was saints on stage.

''Do you mean it, Hydra? Don't you dare! Don't you dare to talk to me like that, Delilah!

The saintly lady on the head of the heavenly dragon (phantom) shouted.

The guards gathered on the city walls, the adventurers, and the fortunate ones of the town who were awake also saw the figure.

'Oh, all of you,' The Hydra has been defeated by the blessing of the Heavenly Dragon!''

Whoa, whoa, whoa! (CHEERS)

Delilira's soul has wielded its final power in the town's crisis. It's the last time. Remember, it's the last time. There will be no more!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!　Oh, my saint! (CHEERS)

'And I want you to know that this is your lucky salvation!　The will of the Heavenly Dragon is watching over the people, but this must not happen again. Don't provoke the demon!　And get the information out faster and more accurately!

If the news of the Hydra attack had come earlier, we could have prepared for it with stationary stone crossbows and other anti-infantry weapons. Information is important. Very important. That's why the conditions of the job offer were so important!

Ooohhhhhhhhhh! (CHEERS)

The saintly lady continues to scream, her arms swinging like wings.

With that, the vision of the heavenly dragon (only its head) rises to the sky.

'Nobles and people alike should know. This world can be more gentle. Harmony and harmony is ...... hey, you don't think this is appropriate!　I hope you're not letting me say whatever I want because you think it's embarrassing, Delilira!　I don't care if it's getting fun, though!

Whoa, whoa, ......? (CHEERS)

'Oh my God, I mean, ──── deceiving people and using them like that, no!　Zettai!　Okay?　If I forget this, Delilirah, you'll be mad at me!　The celestial dragon will be furious!　Okay?　Everyone can do it if they do it. From now on, be careful of the nobles, and so keep the town safe. ......'

The saint and the dragon's head rose into the sky - and then faded away.

Under the moonlight, the people gaze at the words of the saint Delilirah, touched by her heart.

In the meantime, Souma-Nagy and her group of slaves promptly broke away from the city walls.
