Division (3)
A path of light that only you can see.
Rize didn’t know what it was when she first saw it, but now she knows what it is.
It was the flow of mana.
It wasn’t mana floating naturally in the air, but a huge flow created artificially by gathering it together out of necessity.
Rize’s eyes were able to capture it accurately.
Even if it is in the ground.
Rize saw a path of light extending like a spider’s web in all directions from where the armor golem was.
The path of light, which was much thicker than the thread of light he had seen in the Chimera before, formed a constant flow like flowing blood.
And whenever the armored golem passed over it, the light was absorbed little by little.
Rize immediately noticed that it was the golem’s driving force.
“then… … .”
There must be another place where the power comes from.
Rize, who kept looking around, realized that the path of light that led beneath her feet was the path through which power came in.
A total of five lines of light extended toward the aisle the two had passed through, apparently flowing from the inside toward this side.
Along with him, Rize realized another thing.
All passages that seemed to have been lengthened without meaning at first glance were all composed of magic circuits.
It would be to collect mana through that circuit and deliver it to the golem.
If that’s the case, if this path of light is cut off… … It meant that the power directed towards the golem would be cut off.
Turning her head, she saw Irina still fiercely fighting the armored golem.
Caang! Kwaaang! Kagagak!
At first glance, it seemed to be pressing the golem with its nimble movements, but it was not difficult to notice that none of them were effective.
There was no time to worry any longer.
Rize immediately opened the bag she was holding dearly.
It was Irvin’s favorite space expansion bag.
As soon as I realized that it would be divided, I threw it away, so the inside was filled with objects for various purposes.
Rize recalled the explanations she had heard directly from Irvin and searched for the most appropriate item for the current situation.
Even if you could see the path of light, it was always under the floor.
Like in Chimera, if you stretch mana directly, you can make contact, but you can’t see an unstable knot like that time, and you can’t cut it.
so… … I needed a tool that could definitely cut off or block this flow.
“… … ah.”
At that moment, Rize remembered something and grabbed one precisely with the hand that was rummaging through her bag.
What the hand that came out of the bag was holding was the stake, Dijenna’s sacred object.
Rize moved her steps to the place where the aisle and the room connected, aimed the tip of the stake at the center, and hit the top with the hammer she took out together.
Taaang!
I dug in a bit, but the floor was hard, so I had to hit it one more time because it didn’t stick properly.
“miss!”
I turned my head at Irina’s cry that I heard at that moment, and I could see the armored golem running fast towards my direction.
And Irina blocked the way and raised her voice again.
“I will definitely stop him! Don’t stop there!”
“thank you, Sister!”
How powerful is that one word?
Irina could feel the energy welling up in her slightly tired body.
wow… … !
He gritted his teeth and pushed away the sword he faced.
To think that he abandoned his knighthood to protect Rize and still behaves like a knight.
Irina, self-deprecating, let go of the golem’s attack as if throwing away her sword, then vigorously swung her right hand wearing the gauntlet.
Kwak! Kwak!
One room, two rooms.
I stretched out my fist as if I was hammering at the forward-leaning golem’s head.
I had to become a beast.
I had to bite off the enemy’s neck somehow so that he couldn’t even look at Rize.
At the same time as he got up, Irina jumped up on his arms and then spun around and slammed his leg down on the head.
awesome… … !
There was the sound of something cracking.
It would have been nice if it was the golem’s neck, but Irina gnashed her teeth again when she realized that it was definitely coming from her leg.
It’s not broken.
So you can still wield it.
It was the moment when Irina bit her body and retrieved the sword at the same time.
Faaa… … !
A light burst in front of Rize.
The stake, completely driven into the ground, emitted light for a moment, then drew a line extending from side to side.
Immediately afterwards, Rize confirmed that the five lines of light leading to the aisle were gradually disappearing and shouted.
“Sister Irina, hold on a little! I cut off the mana going to the golem!”
“Thank you. Miss, hide in a safe place.”
Irina couldn’t understand Rize’s words in detail, but she realized that the filthy hard and tireless guy had a limit.
So what you have to do… … .
“I will destroy it with all my might.”
Irina, whose eyes flashed fiercely, kicked off the ground and ran out.
As I swung the sword with all my strength, he raised his arm to catch it.
Quaggaagh!
Its body staggered and made a dull sound, but its arm was unblemished.
But that was enough.
If there is nothing wrong, it means that the energy was consumed to maintain it.
Irina continued to attack, and Rize searched her bag while hiding behind a pillar.
There were many different tools, but most of them were difficult for Rize to handle or work only for non-golem creatures.
It had eyes, but it was questionable whether something like a flashlight would work.
However, tools that exert the same power as wide-area magic were dangerous, and even Irina could get caught up in a mistake.
If not… … .
“This is it.”
Finally, Rize found a tool.
Rize, holding a cube-shaped box that could be held tightly in one hand, poked her head out of the pillar and shouted at Irina, who was still fighting fiercely.
“Sister, take two steps back!”
At the same time, the box was thrown, and Irina hit the golem hard and backed away, causing all sides of the box to explode at the same time, causing an intangible explosion.
Irina had no idea what that was.
From noble mtl dot com
However, instinctively realizing that this was an opportunity to attack, he energized his back foot and leapt forward, swinging his sword.
Quagmire!
The arm he lifted to block it was crushed through the armor.
What Rize threw was a tool that Irvin called a ‘mana killer’, which was particularly effective in neutralizing magic traps or wizards by dispersing mana within a certain range.
I didn’t know the details, but since the magic that protected him was gone, Irina continued her attack without hesitation.
The weight of the fight, which had hitherto been equal, was tipped at once.
The golem, which was put on the defensive due to the damage it suffered for the first time, soon tried to counterattack, but Irina only focused on neutralizing the golem, parrying at least minor attacks with her body.
The golem, which was not enough to be cut with a sword and was beaten with fists and feet, finally turned its head.
They tried to eliminate the intruders first, but now they decided to deal with the first priority even if there is an obstruction.
“miss!”
It was so well hidden that even he couldn’t find it, so how exactly could he be aiming for it?
Irina was frightened and grabbed the golem’s body.
Obviously, he did a lot of damage, but he was gradually regaining his original strength, as if he were recovering his mana.
I had to somehow stop him from going towards Rize.
Rize, who became the golem’s target, tried various methods, such as hiding herself, moving secretly, and throwing a decoy doll, as Irvin had taught her.
However, the golem’s one eye was still accurately capturing Rize.
Seeing Irina unable to fight properly because she became the target, Rize desperately shook her head.
The reason why the armor golem ignores others and only targets itself.
Rize recited an incantation just in case.
power to a minimum.
with only the form.
Rize, who quickly completed the spell with most of it off, stretched out her hand to the side.
“Fireball.”
A mass of fire appeared out of the air, rapidly inflating its size, and then shot out.
Rize didn’t miss the fact that the golem’s one-eye instantly followed the fireball.
It was the reaction of a guy who had been indifferent to anything other than attacks directed at him, so Rize was convinced that her thoughts were exactly right.
‘If you find out what the opponent is aiming for… … I have to make it an opportunity for a counterattack.’
Yes, now I had to aim for a counterattack, not just dodging.
Recalling Irvin’s words, Rize immediately took out a bottle containing the sticky liquid from her bag, opened the lid, and poured it onto the floor little by little as she started running.
The golem naturally tried to chase after it, but Irina blocked it and continued to attack.
The liquid Rize is sprinkling on the floor is “glacial toad oil.”
Clink!
Rize threw the remaining liquid out of the bottle and immediately raised her hand.
“Fire.”
A small flame rose above her hand, and Rize put it on top of the scattered oil.
Hwareuk… … !
The flames that swelled in an instant spread out in all directions in an instant.
It was like a wave of flame sweeping over it, and most of the floor was roaring with flames.
The glacial toad’s oil had the property of spreading fire over a wide area and for a long time.
It wasn’t very hot, so it had little lethal power, but it was enough to confuse the heat-seeking golem.
Even that was not enough, Rize hid herself with the thermal blanket she took out of her bag and wrapped it all over her head.
“I am also a young lady.”
Seeing the aimless golem wandering around, Irina straightened up and smiled.
Even though Rize did that, she couldn’t show herself to be ugly.
Grabbing his creaking body, he spurred the ground and swung his sword at the golem.
Kwadeuk!
It wasn’t as much as when using Mana Slayer, but the attack was definitely working.
Like Rize said, it was proof that the golem’s limit was gradually approaching.
Irina continued to pressure the armor golem to stop doing anything else this time.
Swing, kick, hit.
He could feel his bones breaking, but he could never stop.
Unconditionally destroy him on the spot.
With such determination, Irina continued to beat the golem’s body with all her might.
Kwajik!
Was it an accidental accident?
Was it Golem’s intention?
The sword Irina wielded caught exquisitely in the gap between his body and his armor.
It was a very momentary gap.
Kwaaang!
The golem, which was on the defensive, did not miss the opportunity, and Irina’s body flew away with a roar.
The golem retrieved his swinging left arm and this time raised his right arm holding a large sword upward.
I couldn’t find my target because of the flames still rolling around.
Kwaaang!
The strong swing of the sword shattered the pillar, and fragments covered the flames. The golem continued to smash pillars and floors, attacking the flames indiscriminately and extinguishing them.
Irina, who had lost consciousness for a moment, immediately stood up from her seat and was staggered.
Excruciating pain in the right arm.
My left arm didn’t work properly.
Right arm fracture and left arm muscle tear.
It took time to recover, but the golem was sweeping in all directions as if it were pouring out all its remaining strength.
In the meantime, Rize secretly hid herself in a corner, but it would only be a matter of time before she was discovered.
Irina forced her legs together and ran towards the golem.
It was scary to get closer, but the guy didn’t budge and waved his arm at Irina.
“Sister Irina!”
It must have seemed dizzying, as Irina heard Rize’s cry that eventually flowed out, and Irina felt her body float up again.
He could only watch the golem’s head pointing straight at Rize in the air.
If this is the case, it will be too late.
Please, Lu Nera.
Miss Angelina.
Anyone please Miss Rize… … !
aaang!
At that moment, something exploded with a roar.
Awesome!
The right arm of the golem was cut off at once by the sword that was swung like lightning, and it flew through the air.
“Dare now.”
At the familiar voice, Rize opened her closed eyes.
“What are you doing to my daughter?”
When the trustworthy figure in front of her was reflected in her field of vision, Rize raised her voice with all her might.
“Dad!”
Irvin swung his sword again without looking back at Rize and tore the golem’s body in half.
