Chapter 18

After hearing the cry, Van immediately ducked. At the same time, the hole in the witch's palm vibrated and the attack began.

Dozens of dark awls unfold in the shape of a fan.

Swoosh Puck!

The dark awl flew over Van's back and got stuck in the tree behind him. Upon impact, the awl immediately shattered into several sharp fragments.

Instead of confirming the attack he avoided, Van scattered the sword energy without missing a gap. The witch who couldn't make the barrier was hit. Sword energy succeeded in creating a shallow wound by passing through her shoulder.

“Tsk!”

Drops of purple blood splashed over her white cheeks. As if the stinging pain was irritating, blood veins throbbed on the witch's forehead.

“You human!”

Her eyes were fixed on Cadel. It seemed quite distasteful that his own magic had been discovered. Whether or not, Cadel was relieved, secretly sweeping his chest.

‘I never thought I would use [Shadow Barrage] over there. Luckily Van's reaction speed is excellent, otherwise, his punctured body would have flown all the way here.’

Not concerning her identity as a witch, the casting speed was no joke. In addition, all of the attacks were dark and dreadful, like her dark attribute magic. It was not suitable to deal with in such a dark forest at such a late night.

‘It's not like I can't light it up all over the place.......’

If he did such a thing, it was not worth scratching the witch's nerves hard. Cadel, who licked his lips, opened the <Magic Attribute Window>.

‘Points received as a reward for the previous tutorial quest....... I didn't know what kind of enemy I would encounter, so I was saving it for now. I'm gonna have to start using it.’

The witch raised the corner of her mouth to the fullest, putting the Mary she was holding in front of her with a creepy smile. As expected, Van couldn't swing his greatsword.

Van paused to look at Mary. It was an opportunity.

With her hands on Mary's back, she was ready to attack. Her plan was to fire the dark awl from earlier with Mary's body in between. Mary's body, which would receive the attack from the front line, would become inedible, but it didn't matter. She had many opportunities in the future.

“Goodbye, annoying human.”

The witch shoved Mary into Van’s arms. Her hand on Mary's back was black. The moment when Van hugged Mary, whom he had accepted by surprise, and faltered due to the killing intent he felt.

“No! Get out of the way, Van!”

Along with Cadel's panicked cry, a flash of light passed between them.

“Wha.......”

The proud witch's fine brow wrinkled. She looked at her own right hand, tinged with her black magic, which had been perfectly prepared for the magic deployment just a moment ago.

She could no longer feel the magic in her right hand. How could this happen all of a sudden? She had never failed to discharge the magic right before casting. When she tried to infuse magic once again with a sense of wonder.

Tuk.

Her right arm, which had been intact until just a moment ago, fell to the floor in an absurdly vain way.

“......Huh?”

In an instant, her thought stopped.

She opened her mouth small, staring at the empty space below her elbow. A bewilderingly clean cut. Her right arm, which had disappeared neatly as if someone had briefly covered under her elbow, made it less realistic.

And after a while.

Phoosh!

Before the pain of the severed arm, a huge amount of blood gushed out from the severed surface. The dark purple blood flowed straight to Van in front of her. Van blocked all the blood with the side of his greatsword.

The greatsword, which absorbed blood in an instant, vibrated with redder energy than before.

“U, uaa...... Uaaaargh!”

Screaming in belated pain, she glared at Van with wide eyes. A face half-hidden by the greatsword blocking the front. His eyes, which were stained red, radiated an insidious aura and curved slightly.

“I'll enjoy it well.”

Was it because of the shock of her arm being cut off out of nowhere? She didn't realize that Mary, who she was trying to use as bait until a while ago, was no longer in Van's arms.

The missing Mary was picked up by a third person who she hadn't noticed so far and ended up in the hands of the magician who she had been wary of for a very short time.
