Chapter 250 (1/2)

Anti-shi+p Sword

Urushi+ was so fast that he ap between us and the pirate shi+ps in the blink of an eye

We used our birds eye view to observe the pirates, only to find that they were staring up at Fran with dumbfounded looks on their faces The daze lasted for a moment, as they immediately drew their bows, knocked their arrows, and attempted to shoot us down It was a vicious attack, but not one that bothered Urushi+ even in the slightest He dodged them all with ease

『Alright, let’s do this』

「Nn」

『You knohat? I’d say this is actually probably as good as chance as any to run a few experi forward』

「Explain?」

『I was thinking we could try and figure out the most efficient way for us to sink a shi+p What do you think about hitting each of the five with a different kind of attack?』

We were still going to be at sea for quite so to run into a single group of pirates Figuring out thethem would definitely function to our own benefit

Fortunately, none of the pirates out on the deck see to be capable of getting in the way of our experiments—unless we messed up really hard, that is

『Let’s start by trying out Lightning Magic』

Last tied to sink the pirate shi+ps we encountered by hurling rown a lot since then,had a much wider variety of options

「Kanna Kamui?」

『That’s a bit too extreme for just pirates, don’t you think? Plus, on’t be able to use it several times in rapid succession』

I figured Kanna Kamui would allow us to obliterate all five shi+ps off at the sah, which, upon further inspection, they actually seemed to be However, I wrote decided to write it off for the ti, as it would defeat the purpose of the exercise I’d planned

Kanna Kaan to consider our options Spells like Thunderbolt were rather decent, but they lacked the power to take out an entire shi+p in just one hit What we needed was so in the middle

『Oh, I know』

I began to focus so I could cast a powerful spell It wasn’t anything on Kanna Kamui’s tier, but it was still powerful nonetheless

『Alright, let's go!』

「Nn!」

『Ekato Keraunos!』[1]

Countless thunderbolts descended from the sky the moment I chanted the spell’s name They shot towards one of the pirate shi+ps, razed it, and annihilated it in the most literal sense of the word It had been cohtest trace that it’d been there in the first place

Looking at the result one a bit overboard

Ekato Keraunos was a spell that created exactly 100 bolts of lightning It was up to its caster to determine exactly how those 100 bolts would act It didn’t take et as I’d just done

Though it only output 10 of Kanna Kaer than as needed to take down a sspells to wipe them all out if anted

The pirates stopped attacking Seeing one of their allied shi+ps flat out vanish seemed to have scared them shi+tless

That said, they didn’t seem to think Fran had attacked them, but rather, that the shi+p had been hit by some sort of abnormal, weather-related pheno bolts had just randomly descended from the clear sky above

「Next, my turn」

『Sure』

「Nn Thor’s Hammer!」

Her follow up, however, clearly revealed that it’d all been her doing from the start

A huge ht above one of the shi+ps as Fran chanted the naic up to level 8, the spell that’d failed to break Fermus’ defenses

The thick, high powered lightning bolt that caic circle It tore the shi+p in half and left the pieces it came into contact with charred black Whoever named the spell had aptly described it; its after hiht haht into the shi+p

『That spell looked like a pretty good fit』

「Nn」

I could help but think back to our battle with Ferainst an attack that could totally wreck a pirate shi+p in one hit, albeit a s more than just his threads He really was one hell of a strong fighter

『Let’s try a different approach now, namely one that doesn’t make use of brute force』

「What do?」

『Ia shi+p here, so we should be able to finish it off by just blasting a hole through its hull or so』

「Really?」

『I’oes』

I used the level 4 fla Flare, and shot it towards the sea

It did exactly as it was supposed to, and launched a large fireball that ulti with a loud boom

『Welp That failed』

「But made hole?」

『Yeah, but I didn’t hit the right spot I was supposed to make a hole in its belly, not in its flank I h to sink theets really hard to control when you’re at sea』

「Then what?」

『We’ll have to change it up a bit is all』
