Light of Death
“Woooo! I received permission from Sir! Sir Lo, we’re gonna have a match to see which one of us can defeat more!”
“Ufuu!”
Relcend and Lo joyfully head towards the Imperial troops. Relcend had been beaten to a pulp by Lo not long ago, so her resentment has probably been piling up. Well, I want her to take a breather here.
“Fuu……fuu……it’s alright……it’s alright. I’ll survive. I’ll definitely survive. It’s alright……it’s alright……”
Mars is rigid from being overly nervous. He probably wasn’t so uneasy during the previous battle because I’d made sure that Liscia is by his side and I had positioned the dead spirits so that he doesn’t get taken from behind, but I’m the only one by his side now. And then, I’ve informed him beforehand that I won’t protect him, so I guess he’s uneasy.
Well, I don’t intend to watch the subordinate, that I went through the trouble to get, die, so I’ve crept a Devil’s Shadow(Doppelganger) into Mars’ shadow, making sure he doesn’t notice.
“Mars, you can run away if you want. I’ll have Tierra fight in place of you at that time”
When I casually say that, Mars’ atmosphere changes. He’s glaring at the Imperial troops, like the nervousness until just now was a lie. Good grief, I wish he’d done that right from the start.
After placing even more Devil’s Shadow (Doppelganger) under Mars, I go towards where another of my subordinate is. The female archer who looks over at me annoyedly, Cecilia, points her bow over. Even though I’m her ally now.
Well, ignoring that as well, I go towards where Chrono is. He’s quite worn-out for the languid Chrono huh.
“What’s the matter, Chrono. You aren’t usually someone who works that hard, right?”
“Don’t say something like that, Boss. Even I will put in the effort when it comes the time that I have to”
I’m learning about it for the first time though. I carry on to point my gaze downwards. A silver-haired girl was there beside Chrono like she’s snuggling up to him.
I feel an unusual Magic Power from her……no, from the necklace she possesses. It’s a similar vibe to Suzaku’s jewel. This is also an Imperial Tool huh.
“Chrono, I won’t ask why it ended up like this, but from now on, we’re going to break through those Imperial troops. You’re going to die if you fall behind so follow closely, alright”
Chrono, who heard my words, grumbles, ‘you’re reckless again……’. Although the others were looking at me, who appeared suddenly, shortly afterwards, I kill all of the soldiers, who double-crossed. Cecilia was surprised by the soldiers who suddenly collapsed. Well, I guess she’d be surprised if those who were her subordinates collapsed huh.
“……you did it huh”
“I can’t?”
I ask, and Cecilia shakes her head. She’d also lowered the bow that she’d nocked an arrow. They were those on the verge of double-crossing just now. I suppose she’s also thinking something like, it can’t be helped.
I pour my Magic Power in and revive them. I guess they can be meat shields at least. After doing something like that, a woman points her sparkling eyes over from Cecilia’s back. She has pink hair and looks over at me with a revering look for some reason.
Although she’s looking like she wants to talk, now’s not the time for that. We have to break free from these Imperial troops quickly. We’re still, not sufficiently prepared to take on a large country.
I materialize jet black shortswords around and head towards the Imperial troops. Relcend is strong, but be that as it may, she’s outnumbered. Furthermore, Relcend is taking on Suzaku and the others by herself.
Lo was running around while discharging lightning to make sure that Relcend doesn’t get surrounded. After all is said and done, they do get along well.
“Haha! What’s wrong, what’s wrong! Is that all you’ve got, Pup! Bird-fellow! Tortoise-girl!”
Relcend, who makes a joyful expression even while she’s getting wounded here and there. Several hundred people combine their Magic Power and released one magic at that Relcend.
A boulder that’s large to the extent that it can crush several hundred people in an instant. Burbling, boiling magma was overflowing from the boulder. It’s an Earth and Fire’s Composite Magic huh.
“Interestin’! I can get serious as well! Calamity Dragonification!”
Relcend’s smiling even more, even while looking at the meteorite that falls from the sky. And then, the instant she used some kind of ability, Relcend’s body blackens and enlarges. In that instant, the hint of death shrouds the vicinity.
Jet black scales cover Relcend’s body, her arms and legs become that of a gigantic Dragon, and she grows a sharp horn. She’s looking at the falling meteorite with eyes that are dyed red.
“GARUaaaAAAH!!!!!”
And then, Magic Power gathers at Relcend’s horn. The gathered Magic Power had become a straight ray of black light and extend towards the meteorite. The meteorite that hit the black light was engulfed in that light and vanished. Furthermore, that light carries on to pour towards the ground.
Imperial soldiers who were touched by the black light gradually started agonizing, and one after another, they collapsed. It’s a Light of Death huh. It appears that a barrier can block it, but it’s broken like glass by the rampaging Relcend.
……I shan’t, agitate her too much. I can’t bear to have my subordinates be killed. Well, I guess this time we’ll take advantage of this opportunity and break free from the Imperial troops.
I materialize Sun of Erosion(Eclipse Sol) in the sky so that the light doesn’t hit the fellows behind. It catches the light that pours down and absorbs it. Now then, I guess we’ll cut straight across.
