109 Episode 49: Magicians Vs. Demons Part 3 (1/2)
The look of their faces has shown that most of them have experienced nasty things and I can say I can sympathize with them since during my time fighting against a demon, I almost got killed. But all I can tell is that I am no longer the same as them. I already managed to overcome my fear on them, its just a matter of experience.
As soon as we assembled on who was going to help to fend off the demons. The other magicians really wanted to chat with me but due to the urgency of the situation, they decided to put on hold the discussion and deal with the problem first since the situation is no longer something that can be ignored any further.
”We will now be fending off the demons in the Phantasmal Reality. Don't wander off alone especially right now and it is much better if you stick with everyone as long as possible. We can't afford anyone to die in this situation. Attack if necessary, defend anytime and support your allies all the time to avoid trouble from brewing up. Do not be afraid to release your strongest magic spells on the demons. The stronger, the better. Do you understand me?” Voltaire asked in a loud voice as he looked at us in his strict looking eyes.
”Yes sir!”
”Alright, Mass Teleport!” With the flick of Voltaire's finger, we suddenly got engulfed in warm light and appeared once again to the Phantasmal Reality.
The only thing is that the Phantasmal Reality that I saw during the time I teleport here for the first time and the Phantasmal Reality that we are seeing right now are no longer the same. The current forest that we arrived into no longer looked the same. The trees are looking like they are about to rot and they lacked the leaves that are always verdant green. The grass and soil are now very dark like it was contaminated by some sort of chemical that caused everything to look very bad.
”Damn, it's only a few hours since we managed to return to the starting point but to think the whole forest would turn like this,” Maple said as she looked around the surroundings.
The demons have really managed to corrupt a forest this fast. If the demons that attacked Tokyo last time also did the same thing, they would already destroy Tokyo immediately. Just how strong are these demons actually to cause this much corruption?
Many of the magicians who can cut off the trees decided to just cut them off and many of the magicians who can control plants and the earth also used it to clear the way, making it easier for us to traverse the place without touching the trees.
”Stepfather, the miasma stinks a lot in the distance,” Anya said as she covers her nose.
”Miasma?” I looked into the distance but there is nothing there. I tried using the mana scan but it is useless because all I can see is dark and nothing else.
Raigaki who was tied up on the shoulder of the Buddhist monk who I just learned to be Tsukoyomi suddenly convulses and his eyes started to glow yellow.
”What the heck is happening to Raigaki?” I pointed at Raigaki's odd behavior.
���Although Raigaki is useless and just a big pervert, he is somewhat very sensitive when it comes to demonic miasmas and corrupting elements. As soon as he absorbs some of it, he will immediately act like this. He also becomes a different individual when he turns into his battle mode,” Tsukoyomi explained.
”He has a split personality?”
