「『The Holy Guardian Light — Brilliant Holy Shield』」

I gave Rick and Noel the highest defense protection.

This was the first time I’m facing such enemies so I don’t know how strong it was. In the worst case scenario, I would have to evacuate the two of them and fight on my own. Anyway, what that black knight did is just foul play…..

Not even the demon would make this kind of demon look-like imitation.

A Chimera of spirits and demons, mediated by the human body and soul.

If this was “man’s malice”, this alone could be a reason for the “world” to destroy mankind.

「ゝe∞∬?ヾゞ〃∬∂??ゞ〃∞∬ー々ヽ⊿ゞ〃♭e??∮¬⊥???∞∬∂!!!」

The chimera, with a fish-like body and scaled wings, screamed and lurched around.

There was none of the hostility and fighting spirit left of the man who had been the Black Knight. The two people receiving spirit-type blessings were frowning at the screams of extreme grief and suffering.

“…This…What is this? It echoes in my head….”

“What is this… crying?”

「∂?∮?ゞ〃∞∮∬ー々ヽ⊿ゞ〃♭e??!!!」

Another scream from the chimera became a shockwave that gouged the earth and blew away the trees around it. I jumped down from my mount and stuck my hands out in front of the two of them to protect them.

「『Let There Be Light』!」

I chanted【Rampart】and【Barrier】. For the time being, I tried to use advanced nature magic and advanced physics magic. I bound the two magics together and it gained a burst of magical power.

“Rushia!”

“You…”

My riding clothes have been replaced with a platinum dress. I see, does this mean that the attack just now on was more of a mental attack than a physical one?

“Rick, Noel, now while–”

I’d like you to run away if you can— but when I turned around a bit, they both looked away with red faces.

“What happened?”

“No, that…”

“Your back…”

Ah! Come to think of it, the back of this platinum dress was a transparent lace! Moreover, I still have my hair tied up for riding clothes.

“No- Now is not the time for that!”

I felt as if my face was getting hot. So I stepped back until I was behind the two of them, only then did I feel somewhat relieved. The two men moved to my left and right holding their weapons while standing ready.
