Episode 231 – Growth
‘It’s cold!’
I am warming my body by rotating my magic power, but the temperature is still too much.
If an ordinary person without magical power had come here, he would have been transformed into a block of ice in less than 3 seconds. Of course, there is no way or reason for ordinary people to come here.
Dina is a wizard who is obsessed with magic, so her body is weak compared to her power. If his magical power were to drop, he would freeze to death in no time.
I absolutely hated this situation with so many monsters rushing at me, but as Dina, I hated being that cold a little more.
‘What should I do quickly…? !’
You should not attack a strong monster quickly and eliminate it quickly. If that were the case, there was a high probability that other children who were not given attention for a moment would be in danger.
But then, wouldn’t it be possible to do the opposite?
You can deal with the monsters one by one, starting with the monsters that are the weakest and can be dealt with quickly. The idea is to reduce the number of people you need to worry about one by one.
However, you should not cut off support from your colleagues.
While helping everyone as you have done so far, you must also invest a little more magic to deal more damage to weak bosses.
Dinah felt like her head was going to explode.
‘I’m dizzy!’
Boss monsters attack from all directions. There were too many people to protect.
No matter how great a mage she was, it was almost impossible to support everyone on her own in this place that should now be called a battlefield.
Fortunately, Dina was able to somehow accomplish the almost impossible task.
In the meantime, control her magic little by little, very precisely, and focus damage only on specific targets? It made no sense.
But if you don’t do it, everyone will die here.
“… “It’s annoying.”
Her head feels like it’s going to cramp up.
However, we cannot take any more time. Even at this very moment, my magic power and stamina were continuously being consumed.
Wow!
The dark rings in Dina’s chest rotate fiercely.
It is her own unique circle, slightly different from others. She is now in the process of creating her 8th circle.
It has been a long time since he ascended to the rank of archmage.
‘You can do it!’
Faaat! Dina waves her arms strongly. Her magic begins to swirl in response to the gesture.
The amount of mana used for support has increased slightly.
Her magical power consumption also increased, but Dina thought it was more efficient to do it this way.
If it is difficult to focus a detailed attack on a specific target, wouldn’t it be possible to increase all output to the point where the weakest enemy cannot withstand it?
The boss monsters were pushed back little by little or faltered due to the suddenly stronger magic power.
As she intended, the weakest boss monster could not even stand properly under this level of output.
‘Increase the output a little more… !’

Finish that guy at once!
It was time to think like that.
Bang!
Scarlett was blown away after being hit by a huge stick.
While I was distracted for just a moment to increase my magical output, I was attacked by surprise.
‘No!’
He would not have died from the blow just now. The thing that attacked Scarlett was a weak monster, and although it was weak, Scarlett’s magic was felt.
But the problem starts now.
She is said to be one of the weakest among us, but she has been wielding the Zweihender so far and she has somehow been doing her part….
As she flew away, her barely maintained battle line began to collapse.
“…… !”
Dina hurriedly increased her output somehow, but the monsters that came through Scarlett’s empty space rushed after her colleagues.
Dina hurriedly stretched out her hand, but due to the cold nature of this place, which froze even her magic, her magic was cast a little later than usual.
This cannot be prevented. When Dinah felt that way, she gritted her teeth.
Boom!
A small noise erupts once again. It felt like such a small sound in this place where sword energy was exploding and magic was flying, but….
The sound seemed surprisingly loud to Dina.
That’s right, because the place where that sound came from was none other than the direction Scarlett flew.
Scarlett, who had been stuck in the frozen ground, suddenly burst out of the ground as if she had run amok and swung her Zweihender at the bosses who were attacking the backs of her colleagues.
If her attacks had been so far, it would not have been a very significant blow.
hahahaha!
A boss monster’s arm is cut off with a deafening cutting sound.
“Ha, ha….”
In an instant, the eyes of the boss monsters were focused on Scarlett.
She was breathing heavily and looked at them with a half-fazed expression as she fixed her Zweichender.
Now, a faint red magic power was blooming from Scarlett’s body.
[Brightening].
This was the moment when the ability, which had failed to be completely controlled even on the first floor of Babel, was completely dominated by Scarlett for the first time.
Even Scarlett herself may not know the reason. Did she get hit so hard that she came to her senses right before she went berserk? Probably not. If she had the ability to solve things like that, she would have asked Han Si-woo to hit her on the back of the head every time she wrote something.
Perhaps we are gaining insight in the midst of this urgent situation.
Perhaps, like Siwoo’s [Divinity], It may have been a success once in a while.
But anyway, it’s good. It was good news that our troops’ strength had been strengthened.
Boss monsters from the lower floors flock in droves and attack Scarlett.
But Scarlett did not give in at all and resolutely held on to her Zweihender.
She begins to swing her sword with a slightly more leisurely movement than usual.
Boldly avoid attacks that cannot be blocked, and block or let go of attacks that can be withstood.
It boldly gives weight to attacks that it cannot even avoid, and instead approaches the enemy.
At first glance, his fighting style resembles that of Han Si-woo.
However, the ending was not the same.
Rather, it seemed like she was willing to dig in even at the moment of crisis, but unlike Han Si-woo, who always aimed for a fatal wound, Scarlett cut off the enemy’s ankle.
Rather than launching an all-or-nothing attack, the intention was to give certain damage and lead the battle to an advantage, even if the battle dragged on a little longer.
The reason she fights this way is probably due to her low self-esteem.
She thought that she was weak and nothing more than a burden, so she carefully chipped away at the flesh of her enemy little by little.
Moreover, her berserk becomes stronger as she gets injured.
When Scarlett, who had minor wounds on her short body, swung the Zweihender, the monster’s arm was cut off.
Her other wrist is cut off, and soon the sword lodged in her chest raises and cuts her head in two.
Dina was filled with joy as she looked at her like that.
No matter how weak the boss monster was, it succeeded in reducing the enemy’s power. Dina, who is supporting everyone, now has a little more freedom.
And Dina’s composure leads everyone to victory.
Bosses attacking Scarlett after killing one monster. However, when Dina waved her hand with all her magical power, the rainwater was swept away like the fallen leaves in her autumn wind.
Scarlett rushes towards the boss monsters who have lost their balance for a moment and drives Zweihender into their necks, killing them one by one.
Every time that happens, the win rate gradually begins to increase exponentially.
However, boss monsters are not just stupid. Even though they do not have human-level intelligence, they are capable of thinking to some degree, and that is why they have become the heads of a class.
When their colleagues started dying one by one, the bosses changed their plans.
Just like Dina’s idea, she had the idea to focus her blows on one person and reduce her enemy’s power.
And coincidentally, the first target was Jasangnam.
“Krrrt!”
Boss monsters all rush towards Jasangnam. Dina and Celie tried to stop him, but it was not enough.
Instead, Scarlett and Kinaa bought enough time to go help Jasangnam.
Sugaak─!
An eerie cutting sound rings out at the same time.
Scarlet and Cania’s sword strikes each cut into the flesh of different monsters.
The blood spilling out from the monsters wets the dirt floor covered in light snow.
At that point, Dinah was confident of her victory.
It’s not just Scarlett. At this moment, everyone was growing rapidly.
In the midst of hardships and adversity that were difficult to overcome, it actually began to shine and burn splendidly.
“Oooooh—!”
Jasangnam lets out a strange roar and runs towards the faltering boss monsters. On either side of her, Scarlett and Cania run along to assist, and Ceria also supports her from behind, swinging her blade tentacles.
Dina, who was momentarily overwhelmed by the sight of her, gathered all her magical power and began to cast a spell.
Any further support is meaningless.
Now that those bosses are gathered together like that, all we need is a powerful spell that can blow away at least half of them.
