Episode 79
difference in capacity.
Demonic monsters that could be dozens of meters tall, and children who have talent but are only human.
Although that talent could surely bring pain to that monster.
It wasn’t enough to knock it down.
“… … I’m angry.”
“It’s not the time to be sad. … … Keep your head down.”
Alpine and Elcia were immediately prepared to defend after Celia had summoned the spirits.
I put up the summoned spirit as a shield and bowed down.
Because the wounded bloodthirsty giant knew what to do.
gave me pain
People so small that you can’t even see them properly.
As if angered by it, an unusual heat wafted through the whole body of the blood.
It wasn’t the flames of magic or elemental magic that had been poured on him a moment ago.
Its ominous mana burns and is replaced with flames containing high heat.
“come.”
At the same time as the warning, the freshmen who noticed the attack go to defense.
Unleash your magic and crouch in search of a shield or cover.
That moment.
A terrifying flame covers the whole area, making you wonder if it covers the sky.
The evil flames soon expand as if exploding, then scatter again soaring toward the sky.
“… … This is too much.”
Celidia, who had reached the limit of maintaining her spiritual skills, lifted the summons and checked her surroundings, frowning.
Trees and rocks in the forest that could not withstand the flames turned into ash or melted and scattered.
There are no casualties, but that is the limit.
The defense was barely successful, but the freshmen couldn’t afford to fight anymore.
can’t fight anymore
Acknowledging that fact, the freshmen, including Elsia, gritted their teeth in resentment.
“As expected of us… … Is it not enough?”
It’s not like it didn’t do any damage.
Undoubtedly, the attack worked.
Above all, the monster regarded it as a threat and fought back.
But I can’t afford to do more than that.
He lacks experience, is clumsy in his methods, and above all, lacks strength.
“no! … … Going further than this will result in sacrifice.”
I wanted to fight with pride and a sense of duty.
But they don’t know that recklessly holding on is also foolish.
As if indignant, Elcia tried to encourage her comrades to retreat while brooding over the humiliation and helplessness.
“More than this… … .”
It was time to admit my lack of strength and open my mouth.
Fain!
The sound of something bursting and burning.
“Who used magic now?”
No way.
She did not order an attack. Could it be that someone couldn’t overcome their resentment and threw magic to vent their resentment?
but it’s weird
It wasn’t the power of magic that he gave out in desperation.
In addition, above all, the color of the flame is different.
All the flames written by the freshmen so far have been red.
But now, when it lands on that monster, what rises is a black flame.
“no way… … .”
“I’m here now.”
“I waited.”
There is no doubt about it.
Among the academy students, there is only one talented person who can light a black flame.
From noble mtl dot com
Not to mention, none of them even knows who he is.
“draft?”
someone said a name
“You held up better than I thought.”
I could barely tell what he was saying by the movement of his lips.
That’s why I can’t understand more.
What are you talking about?
Could it be that they are talking about themselves who have fought so far?
Someone clenched their fists as if in a fit of heat and tried to shout something at Xian.
But before that voice could be heard, the classmate had to force herself to breathe.
Xian didn’t do anything. He gave his other classmates just one glance and never looked back.
Just staring at that monster.
“I will do the rest.”
He let out a languid sigh and raised his demon spirit.
The demonic energy that is released and boils.
“… … Nonsense.”
Elcia was shocked to see it.
Simply put, the amount of mana he wields is several times his own… … . Maybe even with all the other students, it wouldn’t be enough.
I thought that was ridiculous, but I never denied the idea.
‘I was sure he didn’t mean it then…’ … . That his ability was this much?’
Unbelievable.
Of course, it would be foolish to judge its power simply by the amount of mana it possessed.
It is not uncommon for those who cannot properly use their innate energy even if they train their entire lives.
What matters is how you use it.
skill.
Elcia couldn’t underestimate Xian’s talent, which she had just guessed.
‘… … The level is different.’
I could tell intuitively.
Xi’an is using her powers perfectly.
This is not the intimidation seen in students.
senior… … Or young professors… … . Either that or talented people who make a name for themselves outside the academy.
Even before entering the academy, Elcia acted as a member of the family, and she had the opportunity to learn such heroes several times.
‘… … Like them?’
Unbelievable.
I couldn’t believe it was the same jockey.
It would be embarrassing to say it myself, but to the point where I felt reckless to think of putting him under my command by using my skills.
Xian now was overwhelming.
“What do you mean?”
A ridiculously obvious question.
I already know how Xian will respond.
His mighty and dense magic is the answer.
Nevertheless, Xian dared to answer the chief’s question.
“It’s obvious.”
obvious thing.
“I’m going to burn that nasty weed.”
It seems so easy.
What was impossible for them, Xian simply declared.
* * *
Although I thought it was most desirable that my preparation was in vain.
As expected, it was impossible to defeat that monster alone with them.
‘At most, I could only cut 40% of my physical strength.’
It’s not a bad flow.
It’s good if you defeat it to the end, and it’s a pity if you don’t.
Then I’d have to regret trying for the next episode or call up the save file again and try again.
‘Because there is no such thing anymore.’
I would like to knock it down if possible, but I can’t make a soft sound like that.
It must be knocked down here unconditionally.
It’s not a matter of whether or not you clear it, because if you don’t do that, people’s sacrifices will follow.
‘If they can’t do it, I have no choice but to do it.’
This damn world will have to thank me again and again for being so steady and kind.
“… … Are you ready?”
“Anytime is fine. draft.”
As if she was already ready, Emily deliberately clung to my back and gently tickled me.
I wouldn’t be nervous.
“How is Xian?”
“No problem. I have recovered.”
The consumption of stamina and mana was somehow supplemented with potions and short breaks.
The problem is mental exhaustion.
“It’s terribly drowsy, but… … . It’s okay, get used to it.”
“Am I really okay?”
This kind of drowsiness is like a chronic disease for modern people, so it’s okay.
There is no limit to fighting.
“I’m itching to burn that damn plant right now.”
“Oh my~.”
It’s not like a bluff. Seriously, my body is itching.
If I do as much as they couldn’t do, the price will follow.
I want to fight out of desire, not out of duty.
“Then let’s begin.”
“As much as possible.”
I wanted to wait a little longer, but the other students’ attacks also weakened.
There might be casualties if we just watch it any longer.
I can’t let it go.
Even if you don’t, it looks dangerous as if the ranks are starting to collapse.
… … First of all, let’s draw attention.
I rushed into the scene and immediately cast black magic at the bloody giant.
“First of all, instead of greetings.”
black charcoal.
He fired 10 rounds at it.
Black flames hit in succession and burned the skin of the guy.
“… … The burning smell is nasty.”
Incredible stench.
“Let’s finish this quickly.”
make a decision in a short time
Although the level is stable, I know that if I go into battle with the same sense as in the game, I will be disappointed.
therefore.
“… … I will definitely feed you from the first room.”
You can call it ‘preparation’ for it.
“Emily, let’s begin.”
“From the beginning?”
“What are you saving?”
I’m the type of person who wants to fight a moribund enemy by launching a special move from the beginning.
Open the bag and take them out in clumps from there.
“Write all the scrolls.”
Before coming here, I prepared not only camping tools and ingredients.
A scroll of black magic that I made in my spare time.
A scroll inscribed with 2nd circle powerful attack magic.
“Exactly 1,000 sheets.”
An impossible tactic in the game.
Scroll bombardment.
To put that to the test, that monster was just the right opponent.
Opening the bag, Emily blows all the spilled scrolls towards the Bloodthirsty Giant.
The scrolls fly to him and cling to his body.
“Explode.”
Japanese detonation.
aaang!
Quagga Gaga River!
As if hundreds of thunderclouds raged all at once, there was a roar and the whole area trembled.
The power of the overwhelming demonic energy pushed the surrounding air and caused an aftershock to rage.
Instead of simply exploding 1,000 scrolls, the power of the magic emitted became more intertwined and multiplied.
“… … I can’t use this anywhere else.”
It was so terrifying that even I, who used it, broke into a cold sweat and the corners of my lips twitched.
This tactic is absolutely unusable in the city.
“I wish it would have ended like this, but… … .”
Since he’s a boss, there’s no way he’s that tough.
The black smoke clears and hundreds of red tentacles rush at me.
“Weak.”
It’s just tattered like a rotting rope.
The red tentacles burn just as I snort and scatter black lightning around me.
“Is it baked just right?”
When the deflagration completely clears, the figure of a blood-throated giant, ridiculously skinny, is revealed.
‘… … I feel like I have about 10% of my remaining stamina.’
moribund state.
Those monsters are in a dead end alley.
All that’s left of him is the madness.
[Chwaaa!]
A bizarre scream resounds and the guy randomly attacks me.
Pouring out tentacles wrapped in poison, scattering cursed acid.
In addition, it spews out terrible blood magic and fights to somehow exclude its natural enemies.
“It’s ugly. It is so ugly.”
On the one hand, it’s not fun at all.
I’ll see the end as long as I leisurely parry the attack and this side pours it one-sidedly.
Eliminates all outburst patterns with magic and shoots black flames to hit.
Faaang!
Its huge body staggers with just a simple cannonball shot.
You’re almost dying.
“… … I have to finish.”
I’d like to enjoy the giant target a little more, but it’s not very good to be too relaxed.
There are many eyes to see.
It would be necessary to end it without hesitation at the point of seizing the opportunity as quickly as possible.
“Emily, help me.”
“I am ready. draft.”
Emily understood my intentions and was already preparing for the final blow.
“Magi will pour everything, so go ahead and shout!”
Use her magical powers and mobilize my demonic energy to make the best use of one shot.
Instead of pouring out a large amount of magic, the secret to using the devil’s maximum power magic.
-Demon Origin casting.
– Black Plasma Bomb.
“Let’s see the end… … .”
What flew at first was a fist-sized orb of black flame.
“Burn away.”
The orbs of black flame oscillate.
As it slowly swells, the blood neck struggles to shake it off, but it does not come off.
The flames swelled endlessly.
It became big enough to crush him.
A small black sun.
“I will not leave any roots.”
The black sun slowly oppresses the blood and burns the head first.
Firepower that will sublimate without leaving ashes.
It erases the existence of that monster plant like an eraser.
The guy desperately resists, but he doesn’t even bother.
“It is over.”
Finally, as I squeezed the remaining demonic energy and lowered it with my hand, the slowly descending fireball fell as if it were slamming down towards the ground.
aaang!
The ground is cut and burned, and a huge pillar of fire soars as if it will explode soon after.
It feels certain.
That monster’s repulsive presence faded as it burned away.
《You have defeated the boss》
“… … It’s all right.”
Leaving behind the fading pillar of fire, I took out the last remaining mana potion and slurped the contents down my throat.
