199 195 Even if it doesnt go as planned, its better to make arrangements (2/2)
The difference is.
If it wasn't weakened, it would be destroyed if it hit, but it was reduced to a level where it barely killed you.
Hmph!
Swinging the mineral tree with a bang, you'll run into a barrier.
I'll make sure the barrier is not so sweet that it will still cut through so easily.
Amelia's face glances from her most wary Himik to me.
”Get up now! Amelia!
It may be a promise, but these calls are said to be effective.
It doesn't matter if they are heard or not.
I have to do it.
Huh?
Of course, there's no way he's going to reply to you out of the blue.
I ducked the magic of replying and kept my distance.
Lord.
”What's the response?
Not yet.
Himikku, wearing a full-face helmet, also took a step away and stood next to me.
She herself called out to me and waited for my reaction, but as expected, there's no way she's going to get better at the beginning.
”d*mn, this is going to take longer than I thought!
Because that's what it's supposed to be.
I'm counting on you.
”Oh, come on.
Without saying a word, they split to the left and right and ran out to trap the demon king's soul with a magic barrage.
But.
An ice spear falling from the sky intercepted the magic.
Glancing over, I see Kitamiya and Minami have joined forces with Kaido standing in front of them, successfully creating a position.
The magic tools Kaido was carrying allowed him to defend himself, allowing those guys to focus on attacking without moving.
Fixed turrets and support magic come flying in.
That alone changes the ease of battle considerably.
Thank goodness.
I glanced at the shield-like things set up floating around me, and I saw similar things floating around the camp.
It's southern shield magic.
It can be moved freely and attached to others.
It's also reasonably strong.
The shield prevents magic from coming around to grab your blind spot from behind.
We've been able to bring our team to a stalemate without being wiped out or losing our edge on the first attack.
The weakening of the enemy, the strengthening of our equipment, the unfamiliarity of the opponent's body, and the battle blanks were the result of various factors.
The opponent's magical power has settled down, which is also a factor in this situation.
The supervisor was unconscious because he tried to contain the damage around him in a situation where he was out of control and unpredictable.
Without it, the result would have been slightly different, but now is not the time to say it.
”There's no time for idle chatter.
A blade of wind passed in front of you, barely touching the tip of your nose, and you pulled yourself together with a twinge of trepidation.
From here, it's a race against time and strength.
Time is a matter of whether Amelia's soul will be extinguished or Carter's men will come.
Physical strength is literally a matter of whether we'll run out of steam.
We've got to pull Amelia's soul out one way or another before we reach the end of either one.
Kah, we can't lose!
I've played all I can.
Then we'll just have to take the win, even if it's a lousy bet!
With your usual wicked smile, banish anxiety from your mind and just step in with your spirit to grab the winning line.
If time is limited, to avoid wasting every minute and second, now you don't have to think about anything else, just fight.
From there, you just shoot your magic, break barriers, and focus on depleting your opponent's magic power, but your opponent is the soul of the demon king who has inexhaustible magic power.
I've been haranguing him to stop him from using his great magic, but there's no sign of improvement.
Preservation is not a word we can use right now.
How long has it been since we connected with Oki and started working at full capacity?
There's still room for Himik.
I can still take over.
But how long will the three of us back there be able to keep up?
I'm cheating with potions, but the strain on my body is starting to grow.
The frequency of Kitamiya's magic is decreasing and the fineness of the south's auxiliary magic is beginning to wane.
Even Kaido, in order to protect the two of you, continues to prevent flying magic to avoid straining the magic tools, and his body is covered with wounds.
The never-ending work is mentally rewarding.
But if this is the only way, we have no choice but to continue our endurance battle.
A wedge of light has formed in the valley.
At first glance, it would appear to be a kind of arena.
We will fight endlessly there.
It's enough to wear out your nerves to fight while keeping an eye out for the end that could come at any moment.
And then.
”Lord!
”Well, you're here.
One click of the tongue, two lights in the sky.
And the amount of magic you can feel from that glow is equal to Himik's.
It's not time up, though.
The king's hand (check) was cast.
The soul of the demon king also stopped at the light and looked up to the sky.
Twin angels with the same face, and on their backs, three pairs of white, shining wings.
A cutthroat angel has come to this place.
Word of the Day
The situation may be worse, but it's not over yet.
