Chapter 279

“Lift up your shields—!!” Finn roared, giving the command to everyone.

The vanguard of the Loki Familia frantically raised their shield to stop Fomoire from breaching their formation.

The rearguard kept shooting their arrows toward those monsters.

Line, on the other hand, shone brightly and joined everyone by shooting the magic gun given by Tsukasa.

Everyone was cleared by the power of the magic gun since just one bullet was enough to kill the Fomoire.

Unfortunately, the number of the magic gun was limited, and it was impossible to brazenly ask Tsukasa, considering he had only been on the Loki Familia for less than a month. Even if their relationship wasn’t bad, they weren’t shameless enough to ask him something so precious.

“Vanguard, don’t let formation collapse! The rear guard continues to attack!” Finn kept giving the correct command at the right time without stopping. Still, he must admit the number of the monsters was too much!

‘Hundreds…’

Finn sighed inwardly, but strangely, he didn’t feel his thumb tingle. Whenever he felt a crisis, he would feel his thumb trembling, but this time, he didn’t feel it. However, he knew it was all because of their new member.

Loki Familia executives, whether it was Ais, Tione, Tiona, or Bete, kept blasting and killing one monster after another, trying to stop the horde of monsters from breaking their formation.

However, there was a limit.

After all, there were only four executives.

Finn and Gareth couldn’t move since one had to give the order, and the other had to maintain the formation at the place with the highest number of hordes.

On the other hand, Riveria was in the middle of the incantation of her chat.

“The flame will soon be released. Creeping war, unavoidable destruction.”

Finn glanced at Riveria and let out an inward sigh, wondering when the magic could be cast since he knew the crowd almost couldn’t handle it anymore.

‘Come on.’

Finn hoped to maintain the status quo until Riveria’s magic was ready. Still, he looked at Tsukasa, who was near the center, killing one monster after another easily with his Drying Pole.

The Drying Pole was the most noticeable weapon on this battlefield, considering its length.

It was even longer than Finn’s spear, which made everyone wonder how Tsukasa was going to use his sword.

However, under his hands, the sword was like a mower, mowing all the monsters like grass on the ground.

Still, everyone had to admit they had a shudder when they saw how his sword could cut the body of several Fomoires in half, killing several of them in just one movement.

The other executives who saw him felt their spirit ignited, and they worked even harder since their competitive spirit wouldn’t allow them to lose.

After all, Tsukasa was a Level 4 adventurer, and they were Level 5 adventurers. How could they lose?

Still, inwardly, they knew they had lost, but how could they admit it?

“Tsukasa, go and help the left-wing!” Finn shouted.

Tsukasa didn’t say much and moved toward the left wing. His sword was like a scythe of the god of death, harvesting many lives of monsters instantly.

However, everything had always gone in an unpredictable manner, and the formation of the left wing was destroyed!

“Uwaah!”

“The formation on the left-wing is destroyed!”

The screams of the report sounded one after another when the left-wing formation was destroyed.

“Ah!”

Lefiya, who was on the left wing, was blown away because of the monsters.

“Lefiya!”

Everyone saw Lefiya was about to be slammed by the monster.

However, Lefiya was too late to move, and even though she was a Level 4 adventurer, her basic status leaned toward the magic, and her other statues weren’t that well-developed. In front of the enormous monster that appeared so suddenly, along with her nervousness and fear of being killed, she couldn’t move from her spot and watched how the massive wooden club of the Fomoire was about to hit her.

Suddenly…

The Fomoire turned in half and vanished into black particles.

Lefiya blinked her eyes and saw her knight in black armor standing in front of her. She suddenly forgot about Ais for a moment, and all on her head was only his figure.

However…

“How long are you going to sit there? Come on, stand up! Hurry up and use your magic!”

“…”

Hearing his scolding, Lefiya puffed her cheeks and quickly stood up. “I know! You don’t need to remind me!” She started the incantation to cast her magic, and this time, all of her fear disappeared because of the figure in front of her. Also, the casting speed of her magic became faster because of the accessory given by Tsukasa, so it only took a moment before her magic was ready.

“Falling like rain, burn away the savages.

“Fusillade Fallarica!”

A magic circle around Lefiya shot out several explosions, instantly killing many hordes of monsters.

Watching how Lefiya blasted many monsters instantly, Tsukasa must admit a magician was like a mobile gun turret. They had a high attack power and could determine a battle with their magic alone. However, as expected, they had a big weakness, which was a long casting time and a weak body, compared to others adventurers from the same level.

Still, as long as Lefiya had Tsukasa to protect him, she felt she would be okay no matter what.

However, Tsukasa was more interested in the magic that was about to be shot by Riveria, wondering how strong it was. Still, while he killed the monsters on the left wing and helped everyone to set up their formation again, Ais suddenly moved along the battlefield, killing many monsters instantly.

“….” Tsukasa.

While many members of the Loki Familia were amazed by Ais’s feat, Tsukasa and Finn were lost for words since this girl had broken the order.

“Am-Amazing…”

“So this is the “Sword Princess,” the strongest among first-class adventurers…”

“The Sword Princess, Ais Wallenstein.”

Ais’s feat was amazing, and it was normal for everyone to feel amazed by her because of her acrobatic movement.

On the other hand, while Tsukasa was amazing, he was more low-key since he had never made an exaggerated move. He only swung his sword, and all of the things caught by it were dead instantly.

“Ais returns!” Finn shouted since Riveria’s magic was ready.

“Sweep completely, bring a close to the great war. Burn them through, Sword of Surtr – my name is Alf!”

On the field of hundreds of meters covered in the magic circle, Tsukasa could only stare at this scene in silence.

“Rea Laevateinn!”

It was utter destruction, and everything was annihilated by this magic.

Hundreds of meters of space were covered in pillars of flames, killing all the monsters in this place.

Tsukasa re-sheathed his Drying Pole, and his eyes were moving like a high-resolution camera at the highest speed, recording everything in a detailed manner, learning this destruction magic.

When this magic ended, the intense heat hit everyone, and the space was scorched black.

However, inwardly, while Tsukasa must admit Riveria’s magic was strong, he thought his “Material Burst” was stronger.

‘Well, mine’s stronger.’

Still, it wouldn’t be bad to learn it, so he learned it secretly, and everyone passed the 49th Floor successfully.
