Volume 8 Chapter 10 (2/2)

“W-what do you mean?!”

“As I said I am not Gandálfr now”

“Ha? Why?”

“The runes disappeared because I was close to death”

“Are you s-s-ss-stupid! Why did you coate!”

“Shut up I a you because I am Gandálfr”

“What other reason?!”

“I protect you because I love you!”

Louise's face crimsoned Even at such time, Louise blushed furiously

She coughed to clear her throat and said…

“Th-then, anyway… lets do the Contract Servant again…”

“We don’t have much time for that Just chant the Void spell and do not worry, I in somehow”

“What are you saying?! Not being a Gandálfr, what can you do with gargoyles as your opponents…”

“Gargoyles?”

“Magic dolls”

“I see So they are not human I won’t hold back then”

The crowd of gargoyles closed in

For a while, they were eying them

Saito set up the sword

“It’s all right, entrust me with your life”

Hearing him say that in such confident way… Louise bit her lip And rubbed her eyes

She was happy

Concentrating on her wand, Louise began to chant the spell

Hearing the nostalgic Void chant from behind him, Saito faced the direction fro

Frooyle, dressed in a differently shaped ared the enemy's attack in a dash and jumped back

He was looking at the enemy’s foot position

It was tines to start repaying, Saito thought

“Follow the feet…”

After dodging several times, he understood the pattern of the enemy's attack

Then, when the ene it down, Saito thrust decisively

The shoulder of the gargoyle was torn and the sword fell to the ground

“Ah, I hit it!”

Saito’s hands shook with exciteoyle down

However, though he was pleased about the hits… more enemies popped up one after another

“damn…”

He renes’s words:

“Avoid situations where you have to fight more than one on one”

He thought about escaping, but heard Louise chanting from the back

She said she entrusted her life to Saito

She entrusted her life not to Gandálfr, but to Saito Hiraga

Even if cost him his life, he wouldn’t let her down

Taking a breath, he e

The enemies approached

Towards him

Derflinger, who had kept silent till now, opened his mouth

“Partner, I ask you Just now, you cut doo enemies at the same time Don’t you understand? You are a sioyles at the same time”

“Aye”

“Have confidence You are strong Just listen to ht? If you do so, you can surely win”

“Yeah”

Derflinger's confident voice calmed Saito down

“Center”

A gargoyle with a spear attacked him

“To the right”

Following Derflinger’s instructions, Saito dodged to the right

Pon – the spear hit the place where Saito stood just athe chance, Saito cut it down

“On the right Squat down Cut away the feet”

He squatted down

The gargoyle's sword sliced through the place where Saito’s head was a fewhis sword and cut down the dolls legs, leaving it lying on the ground

“On the right Round up”

Saito rounded up to the standing position and hit the gargoyle’s groin with his sword

“Turn around, cut”

He turned around Though the spear was aiht to his face, he was not afraid anymore

At the sa the gargoyle from the back into half

The re one lifted up its sword

”Block!”

Seeing an opening, Saito pierced

“Idiot! Don’t pierce!”

Though Derflinger shouted, Saito already pierced the gargoyle, pinning it with the sword to a tree

“Seventh!”

Saito shouted happily in excitement

“Hey, pull out!”

“Haven’t I told you?! Never pierce against many opponents!”

A new one appeared there, Saito fell into panic

“W-what do I do?!”

“It’s too late! The end! Good-bye!”

“T-that!”

Though Saito tried to pull out the stuck sword using his leg, it didn't came out

The new doll jumped up at Saito

At that ht before Saito’s face

“What was that?”

Then he saw Agnes standing there, holding a pistol

“Agnes-san!”

Then Agnes threay the pistol, and pulled out another one frooyle next to him fell

With er

Having already used her both pistols, Agnes pulled out her sword

“Co her jaw

Reassured by her presence, Saito felt his courage rising again

However, another gargoyle appeared fro Louise

Even though he instantly ran, it didn’t look like he was going to make it there on time

If he were a Gandálfr, he couldit… Blonk! sooyle’s head

A frying-pan

Slowly, the gargoyle cruround

Behind Louise, dressed in nightclothes and tre-pan at the gargoyle that was approaching Louise

“Siesta!”

“Ah, I hit it…”

Then, noticing Saito, Siesta’s face started to gloith joy

“I couldn't fall asleep, and when I looked out of the … I saw this girl running without protection with a different expression on her face, so I followed! And then Saito-san! Waah waah! Waaah!”

Seeing Siesta sobbing, taken by eain

He didn’t show any surprise upon seeing Siesta in such a distant place

Saito leaped towards the place where Agnes had her sword crossed with three gargoyles

Due to the training… Agnes' and the gargoyles' movements seemed slow somehow

Though it wasn’t on the sah

It didn’t take much ti gargoyles

Within the darkness, Sheffield was perplexed

Those three were mere humans

Yet… the two fencers cut Sheffield’s gargoyles one after another

Though the woman seemed to be a skillful warrior… it was the boy that surprised Sheffield the most

His oyle

As if he stopped thinking about hishis sword

“Hmmm… this h one”

Sheffield, like a predator watching her prey and with a sht

After a ed

Sheffield, with the face of a girl in love, shouted,

“Joseph-sama!”

Then her face clouded

“But why? If I would take it really seriously, I could take them down at once!”

After a feords said in her ain

“I see You enjoy the gaainst Void After all, this is what s and treasures for now Then, in the end, I will ame partner if you do not closely measure it…”

Louise released the ancient spell

A wave of Void rippled through the place

She gathered it with all of her will powers' limit… and released it

The long spell ended, the cantrip was completed

'Dispel Magic'

All gargoyles rapped up by this rains” canceled the effect of the spell that made the dolls move
