Chapter 42 Operation Deception (2)
I waited for the time to look at the situation.
If possible, I hoped that the plan I had originally planned with Osprit would be accomplished.

Now Osprey is waiting for Heldre. The original tactic was to lure Heldre in and when Osprit grabbed him, I tossed Excalibur at him.How to restrain Heldre in the air, how to control Excalibur’s power. All of that, he and Osprit rolled their heads and created a strategy.
Of course, it was all thanks to Osprit’s immense ability and knowledge.
Even Heldre would surely die if he was hit head-on with the combination of Penelope’s cloth and Excalibur. Even if you block it, I wonder if it will be okay.
‘But Heldre is not coming.’
This is partly because this place where the air rail is located is not very important, but conditions are necessary for Heldre to move.
Qian is included in that condition.
So to call him.
‘I’m sorry, Principal.’
The two of us worked hard to plan a plan together, but there are too many holes in this plan.
Both Osprite catches Heldre’s movements and controls Excalibur. The probability of failure is too high and the operation cannot be carried out because Heldre does not come in the first place.
sup-
I took a breath.
“Menosorphos.”
The realm of a magic circle that stretches out with a single statement.
Of course, Skyler and Thompson notice, but it doesn’t matter. Isamaya and Pascal are not easy opponents to the extent that I can take my eyes off them.
Menosorphos, weaving
Rank – Shinwei (神位)
Chrycelakatos, Iokeira
I held a bow and arrow in both hands.
Previously, when aiming at the Kraken, the Auror could only be loaded into the Chryselakatos. He had a strong will to hit him, and the time was too tight.
But this time it’s different.
Paah-!
I drew the bow, and put the auror in the bow and arrow. As always, this bow does not require strict aiming. I just need my eyes to hold Thompson and Skyler.
Come on, this time I included the aura of both the bow and arrow.
With anticipation of what would happen, I put the protest down.
* * *
Thompson and Skyler were in different places, but had already lost their concentration to continue the fight.
It was because the momentum of the man on the other side of the cliff was unusual.
Despite the considerable distance from here, the eerie magic swept under my feet like a wave.
Fortunately, even Isamaya and Pascal, who were facing each other, were losing their minds to Frontier.
‘What the hell are you going to do… … .’
Thompson had a frontier in front of his position. It was fortunate indeed.
But it was also so terrifying. I had to see with my own eyes the terrifying force Frontier drew his bow.
But Joan was a little strange. The arrow pointed neither Thompson nor Skyler.
To put it bluntly, in the middle, he was heading to a higher place. If you shoot like that, it will only cut through the air.
‘huh. Are you saying you’re going to aim and attack right before firing?’
Thompson lowered his eyes and waited for Frontier to fire his bow. He had the confidence to strike at any time, no matter how great an arrow, at any time he shoots.
However, Frontier set the protest as it was aimed at the air.
“her?”
Thompson looked at the trajectory of the bow and cried out in disbelief.
Perhaps Skyler felt the same way. The arrow was flying in the sky in a completely erratic way.
“What is that arrow? Where are you shooting-”
As if to cut off Thompson’s words, the arrow exploded in the air. bang, and
‘… … Right! Is that the famous ‘firecracker’?’
Thompson then remembered. One piece of information about Frontier. Although the credibility was low, I listened to half of it, but I managed to retrieve the faint memories.
I heard that there was an incident where a monster attacked Constell a while ago, and there was a rain of arrows that killed the fleeing monsters at once. It’s called ‘fireworks’.
Then that guy is not a fake, but a real Frontier.
‘Crazy bastard. You put your own face in front of us!’
If you stop this rain of arrows, you are dead. The moment Thompson thought so.
pop-!
Boom, boo-hoo!
The arrows that once exploded in mid-air exploded in mid-air again.
“… … What?”
They burst out of the air intermittently, as if warming up.
Bubbly boo boo bum-!!!!
The arrows, which were initially split, all made their own sound and split in the air. From the first arrow, each of the arrows that were divided into more than 100, as a rule of thumb, divided the number of arrows again.
… … So how many?
“Huh, no, wait.”
different from the record. Still, it wouldn’t have been that many arrows.
Even so, with that number, one shot wipes out the monsters, and there are still several times left. It was said that a few more ‘firecrackers’ flew because the number of arrows was insufficient in the record.
‘It’s black.’
Thompson looked up at the sky and had a simple thought.
The sky turned black. No, because all the arrows are glowing, it’s not that it’s black, it’s, that’s it.
it was just rain made of light.
Characteristics of Iokeira, the rain.
‘It will be rain.’
“Maybe that, really.”
As Thompson thought, and also as rain, as rain.
A pitch black halo fell precisely towards them.
‘Nonsense! Are you going to attack even your own allies?’
Thompson was astonished to see the falling rain. That number is enough to fill this whole area without gaps. Thompson himself and Skyler, as well as Pascal and Isamaya, of course fall into that category.
However, the arrow began to draw a strange curve.
All of them evaded the higher floating Osprits, and shifted their trajectory to only two points and rushed into them. Only towards Thompson and Skyler.
“Ugh… … !”
Thompson raised his prosthetic arm. The installed tentacles all popped out. He surrounded the Aurors and filled the gap. I got down on my knees and lowered the hit area to a minimum.
He was in every defense he could do right now.
however.
Kwawagaceae-!!
The rain of arrows that rattled the earth loudly, but it wasn’t like the rain.
“Ouch! big black! uh… … !”
The gusts of the prosthetic arm spinning vigorously could not push the arrow away. Even the prosthetic arm itself could not block all the arrows. A merciless attack pierced through the gaps and pierced Thompson.
Thompson leaned even more. He covered his face with his prosthetic and crouched down like a tortoise.
It looked ugly, but I couldn’t afford to think about it. He buried his face on the floor and clenched his teeth, waiting for the pain to stop.
Blood splattered between his teeth and spilled onto the floor. The blood that he had shed was smeared on his face.
… … After a long rain of arrows, Thompson was lying on the ground like a mop.
His clothes were torn and blood shed from the attacks that broke through the Aurors.
“Uhhh… … !”
Thompson let out a strange noise. It just blew up almost all of the auras in one hit. It was like this, even though his prosthetic arm was punching him out, and even the power that sucked the Auror was taken out, and his clothes themselves were great armor.
If that attack comes again. then.
Thompson raised his face, trembling. As expected, Isamaya was fine. Surprisingly, there was not a single wound in the rain.
“Heh, heh heh… … !”
Isamaya must have been convinced by this attack. That arrow will never attack Isamaya. A technique that only targets the enemy, an unfair technique.
So, in the next rain, Isamaya will attack Thompson without hesitation. Arrow and Isamaya’s attack. It was impossible for Thompson to respond to the pincer.
‘That’s right. Skyler… … !’
Thompson found Skyler in the distance, at the bottom of the cliff.
It wasn’t accurate because it was far away, but Skyler was no different. He was also on his knees, unable to move properly. Support in this direction is not possible.
‘no. So, my plans here failed. you have to run away You have to run away and come up with the next strategy.’
Thompson thought. Totally unexpected, but so deadly raid.
‘Run away. Don’t be crazy. If you make a mistake in your judgment, you will only be caught in the enemy’s target. you are smart Be cool. Be cool.’
Thompson realized what the enemy was thinking, what the Frontier was thinking. His plan isn’t just to damage Skyler and Thompson.
He obviously knows more than Indus thinks. I don’t know if it’s because of the traitor, but there’s something more important than that right now.
‘You have to run away!’
Thompson let out a silent cry.
‘Kian!!’
* * *
“That’s it.”
As I prepared the next arrow, an unfamiliar voice was heard. No, I’d say it’s a voice I miss very much.
A girl approached me as I was pulling the protest.
The girl was reaching out to me. It was an aggressive stance.
“If you don’t lower that bow, your neck will fly away.”
“It’s scary, Kian.”
I said the girl’s name. The girl’s eyes widened.
But soon the snow subsided and began to live.
“Okay, information is leaking.”
The keyword “traitor” seems to have been well embedded in Kian’s head.
Kian looked at me and had a face as if he had found it.
But it was the same with me.
“Now, bow, get down.”
Kian said as if warning me.
I did what she said. Slowly lowered the bow. I had no intention of killing them anyway. It was enough to become incapacitated in battle.
From the beginning, I was planning on taking them hostage. A hostage to take Kian. Some of them may have guessed my intentions, but now it doesn’t mean much.
Kian came in front of me.
“The back is a cliff. Give up now.”
Kian said to me. I actually shot an arrow from the cliff, and Qian came from behind me, so she was right. I was now in a position where I could not escape.
But then why?
Didn’t Kian kill me right away?
This was worth checking out.
I looked at Kian and asked.
“You know it’s a Kraken?”
“… … Don’t do it like that, gossip.”
I know.
“He said I would be a ‘sacrificial’ for the Indus revolution.”
Kian’s eyes twitched. She wouldn’t like the Kraken talking like that.
Originally, it was a story that could be said for a Kraken who likes to talk about and ignores humans, but now, in Kian’s head, there is a keyword called ‘traitor’.
“… … so? You mean you don’t want to be a victim? Would you like to make a deal like that?”
“Hahaha, no, it can’t be.”
What the Kraken was aiming for was to give me ‘fear’. probably no doubt When called ‘sacrificial’, people are vaguely afraid of it. Especially when something unknown like the Kraken comes and talks about it.
But to me, it was just information.
“I’m just curious.”
“what?”
“How important I am. What is its value as a sacrifice? Is the sacrifice something that can be replaced by someone else?”
“… … ?”
Kian’s head tilted.
He didn’t seem to understand what I meant.
That’s good. So that my movements are one step ahead.
I looked at Kian and smiled once. The sudden smile of the other person stops the viewer’s thoughts for a very short time. I learned from Selena.
in between.
“What, what are you-!”
Leaving behind Kian’s cry,
I threw myself towards the cliff.
