Chapter 121 Ogre Phalanx 4

“When I leave the white room, I’d like Yukino-san to return to the main school building. I’ll head over there… Alice I think that small ogre is pretty easy. I wonder if you can manage it.”

“Keiko-san is amazing … Even though she was surrounded by a lot of ogres, she just reacted like she had eyes on her back, to avoid and deflect them. I would have had no other choice but to run away and hide to avoid being surrounded.”

“It’s not like that, your response is pretty normal. You don’t have to push yourself too hard.”

“Moreover, Keiko-san’s tactics are probably understood only by the captain itself. And even he is powerless compared to the god soldier class. It’s just different from your field of expertise.”

I gave a brief explanation.

Keiko-san also nodded, here and there and said, “Right.”

This person was always at her own pace.

“All right……”

Alice was still hesitant as she kept averting her eyes.

Well, it’s not that I don’t understand her situation.

If you fight side by side, you’ll find out one day anyway.

“Hey, don’t push yourself too hard, and just keep attracting the ogres.”

“I’m not telling you to knock it down but If we manage to defeat the captain, I think the small fish will run away on their own.”

Even if Yukino-san leaves halfway, the battle situation is still manageable.

As it is, Keiko-san took time to comfort Yukino-san.

No one mentioned that the smell of ammonia was wafting in the air.

From the bottom of my heart, I was glad that Mia wasn’t there.

As soon as Yukino-san left the white room, he headed towards the school building.

Probably the ogres were busy, they didn’t have the time to chase after Yukino-san.

“I’m sorry, that, I …”

“It’s enough, Yukino-san was very active in the early stages of the toughest battle.”

I followed Yukino-san, who managed to stop crying but looked down apologetically.

First of all, they were senior students…

Now we’ve come this far, combat experience was much more important than age.

Kazuhisa:  Level – 29

Grant magic – 5 

Summon magic – 8 

Skill points – 7

After we returned from the white room, we resumed fighting.

Then Yukino-san stood up and ran toward the main school building while staggering.

I was relieved to see that the ogre didn’t even notice him.

Now, the rest is the procedure of annihilating the captain and the mage. 

Then two of the four Mages who were practitioners of the wind element suddenly lowered their gazes.

Did they notice him?

The Mage and his team set out a strategy to attack using wind magic and Lucia was being attacked by two in the rearguard.

To be honest, I was glad I was able to send Yukino-san safely this time.

After landing on the ground, the two Mages continuously hit us with ice gravel.

“Reflection”

“Bright Shield”

I was just on time.

Lucia and me each created a translucent shield that reflected the magic of ice.

While they were preparing for another attack, but …

At this level, It was still tolerable.

Rather, the mage got hit by the gravel reflected by me that he had released, and screamed loudly.

How was Lucia doing, who was hit by countless ice blocks with me?

I glanced at her from the side.

While bleeding from the forehead, Lucia was expressionless and was casting bondage magic on the captain.

“Lucia’s resolution is really reliable.”

“Thank you, Kazu-kun.”

Then Followed, a Flame Javelin by Lucia towards the mages. 

The spear wrapped in the flames looked like a red lotus, piercing a Mage’s body.

Also 

“I will be an avant-garde.”

“Huh!…”.

Lucia pulled out her whip attached to her thigh-straps as she rushed towards the two mages.

It was not an ordinary whip. It was a magical iron rope that could transform into a whip with sufficient mana.

As a member of the Royal family, she was also trained as a swordsman.

Even though she was a mage, the enemy was an ogre, a muscular bodied monster with a height of almost 3 meters.

I didn’t have the courage to rush towards it. But Lucia didn’t hesitate a bit to challenge the giant.

The timing was right. When the mage ogre swung his cane…

“Flame Shield”

Fire Magic Rank 7, received the attack of a flame shield that was created a moment ago.

Lucia held the whip, swishing it in air to give a strong blow at the feet of the mage ogre.

The mage who received the iron whip fell on knees with a painful groan.

“Nightmare Explosion.”

Lucia created a black sphere about the size of a baseball and rolled it at the feet of the ogre that had stopped moving.

Fire magic rank 7, nightmare explosion.

The effect was …

Lucia took a quick distance.

Another mage ogre stopped beside the kneeling ogre and shot an ice bullet at her.

Immediately after…

“Fire Bullet”

Lucia’s weakest rank 1 fire bullet hit one of the black spheres.

The black sphere exploded.

The explosions continued and the body of the large monster was blown away.

The Nightmare Explosions were, in the words of our civilization, grenades or land mines.

Originally, it explodes after a specified time after the time of activation.

At the same time, It could also burst if it receives a strong impact.

However, the explosion did not occur when it rolled on the ground.

So Lucia fired a fire bullet at the moment the mage ogre tried to stop her.

Due to the synergistic effect, the explosion broke through the fire resistant armours that the mage ogres wore, killing the two monsters.

However, this almost stopped Lucia’s magic.

As expected, I was breathing hard.

And we went to the white room.

Alice and Lucia have leveled up.

I left the white room just for a fresher.

Alice: Level – 24

Spear – 7 

Healing Magic – 5 

Skill Points – 5

Lucia: Level – 17 

Fire Magic – 7 

Skill Points – 6

*

The trend of the battle was being decided.

The enemy mage, and the remaining two, cannot compete with the Greater Wind Elemental.

Although the captain was fighting well against the two wind elements, it seemed that even he had difficulty completely breaking it down.

Keiko-san and Alice-san steadily defeated the small fish ogres.

And the rest was manageable.

The ogre minions turned to jewels one by one.

The Blue jewels rolled around.

And the Mage ogre turned into two blue jewels.

There were about ten ogres fighting with Alice-san.

I was taking care of even more …

Keiko-san should level up now.

“Well. I wonder if I can raise my magic.”

“Granted.”

I slowly said such a thing and raised her grant magic to rank 5.

She was now equal to me when it came to granting magic.

I thought it was tactically very good to be able to use reflection spells in the front lines.

Keiko: Level – 20 

Reconnaissance – 5 

Grant – 4 → 5 

Exercise – 2

Physical – 3 

Skill points – 6 → 1

*

We returned to the white room.

The ogres who had lost their fighting spirit turned their backs on each other and tried to escape into the forest.

Alice-san and Keiko-san attacked their defenseless backs and defeated them one by one.

That was enough.

I gave instructions to them not to chase.

“Both of you, come back!”

I stared at the captain who came down to the ground, flowing the wind element and shouted.

Even now, he probably thought that he had advantage in the sky because of the wind elemental. With the support of Mages, I couldn’t hope for it anymore.

As if in response to the captain, the two Mages, who were struggling in the wind, also come down to earth.

With a last wave of resistance, Lucia and I continuously shot ice gravel in succession …

The battle was slow.

I stopped the captain who came to me with a flame bind whereas Lucia used her last strength.

I reflected ice gravel with ‘Reflection’.

Alice-san and Keiko-san, who have already scattered all the ogre minions, attacked the captain.

Even though he was weak, the captain was as good as I expected.

He took Alice-san’s blow on his shoulder and still attacked back to Keiko-san.

But … that was also a bad move.

‘Reflection’

Keiko reflected the blow at the perfect time.

Captain ogre’s silver hammer bounced off and crushed his head.

The captain changed to four blue jewels.

On the other hand, my reflection caused severe damage to the two mages.

The mages stumbled.

Then the girls attacked with ‘The Thunder Dance’.

The two mages burst into screams and collapsed.

It happened almost at the same time as the death of their leader, the Captain.

At the end of the battle, Alice, Lucia, and I were leveling up.
