126 Episode 98

The hole made of magic was a long way.

The lights are only on hand with the pine lights. Perhaps it is still daytime outside, but the sense of time is obscured by not seeing the sun's light for a while.

Walking for a while with that in mind is about 30 minutes. We went out into a high ceiling space.

Aina observes the surrounding terrain.

"Unlike passages, this space seems to be made of nature. Looks like it's connected to another cave."

"I'm sure there's another entrance on this side... what are we gonna do, mica?"

Mikage shook his head to the side in response to my question.

"It's time for the tide. If it's another cave, its size is still unknown. If we're going to do a full-scale investigation, let's go back and get back on track."

It may be a good battle force, but you'll need food and spark fuel when you get to Nagachoba.

There was no one to dispute Mikage's conclusion.

I'm sorry to hear that. There are a few evil beasts coming this way.

I'm so sorry!

With malice in his mind, Mikage's gaze sharpens when he notices the approaching evil beast, just like Gram.

"These footsteps... there are several small, medium-sized evil beasts approaching us."

Aina and Cunei took a small breath into Mikage's words.

"... that's all. If the big guys would have come, we could have gotten away with it easily."

"Well, think about something bold, Aina."

Cunei was at war, but I agreed with Eina.

The passage we have walked through is by no means wide. The ceiling is low enough for two people to pass in line. It would have been impossible to pass through humans if they were giants.

By the way, my feet are going pretty fast. Even if you run into the hallway, it'll be a little hard on Eina and Cunei's feet. "

And then, yes.

"Regardless of Mikage, Yukina's weapon is a long one. Then it's easier to intercept them on the spot than to go back to the corridor badly - the light source (light)!

Faster than me and Mikage asked, Eina once again magically illuminated the interior of the space. When we threw the torch away, we took each object.

Eventually, Warawara and the Beast appeared from a different place than the hole we came through.

In a word, a two-legged lizard. That said, it does not stand upright like a human being. He is bent forward like a bird and stepping on the ground with his hugely developed hind legs. --Big leg lizard (red lizard).

The Federation has set a fourth-grade Enemy Class. If it were me now, it wouldn't be as hard as it was for me...

"Isn't that a lot?

"But there are ten of them. Maybe this was their nest."

The big leg lizard (red lizard) saw us and attacked us with a tall, bizarre voice.

"Mikage, you're in the vanguard!

Got it!

As Mikage put his hand on the pattern of Katana, he penetrated into the herd of evil beasts.

When I pull my spear out of my back sheath, I stand in front of Eina and Cunai. Originally, I would like to go out with Mikage in front of me, but this time there are a lot of opponents. We needed a role to protect both of them.

"Excuse me, I need an escort."

"Leave it to me. I'd rather have the magic."

"Of course. Because that's my role."

When Aina nodded her confident face, she stood on her cane and the jewels at the tip began to shine. The magic "chant" began.

"Crazy!

The previous lizard flips the katana and rips open the big leg lizard (red lizard). For Mikage, a second-class mercenary, there will be no such thing as a fourth-class Enemy Beast.

The sparkle reflected on Katana runs through the battlefield. It is a sight worthy of the name of Silver Flash.

--Gyuaahh!

A few big legged lizards (red lizards) fled the lizard's katana, and when they saw us, they jumped all at once, shouting loudly.

The leap from the developed hind leg and the kick from it are the most powerful of the big leg lizard attacks.

The big leg lizard (red lizard) shrinks both legs to create a reservoir on the edge of the leap, so if it happens and can be detected, it is not so difficult to respond.

Nevertheless, behind me is Aina, who is chanting magic. We can't avoid it.

It is a large legged lizard (red lizard) which is relatively small among the Urban beasts, but it is still about the size of a grown cow. If more than one of those jumps at the same time, the impact is considerable. It's a little hard to bear with my gear now.

If it is difficult to avoid or endure, intercept it.

Attacks are said to be the greatest defense.

Let's go, Gram!

I understand!

Weight gain (Enchant) triggered in response to my will. The spear's weight increased all at once.

"Uuuuuuuu!

The big legged lizards (red lizards) who kicked each other in the opposite direction with a heavy spear.

Hmm?

The feeling of slapping the bones and flesh of the Urban Beast was transmitted to my hand, but the recoil running on my arm felt lighter than usual. I was used to the weight gain (enchant) to some extent, but I didn't feel it was tighter than usual.

And when I looked closely, I realized that there was light in my body - magic covered it.

"Durability."

The Lord of this magic was Kunai.

"I always get hurt indifferently. I wouldn't ask, and I remembered I had to follow you here. Thank you for your time."

"Oh, wow. Sankyu"

I thank Kenai for telling him to scold me. I feel a little sorry for him.

This guy doesn't have simple endurance.

The magic of this hand - I don't know because I've never received "support magic" as a classification, but is that so?

Normal Durability (Toughness) increases Defense with Magic covering the surface of the target, but Cunei's Durability (Toughness) penetrates into the interior of his partner. It's supposed to lessen the recoil on the body. "

Not just the outside of the body, but the durability has improved to the inside.

For this hand improvement, it is essential to adjust to each target. Skilled wizards can finally help, but Cunei is a doctor and draws the blood of the Succubus. The body is deeper than the clergyman. "

I feel sorry for making Cunei worry all the time, but now I can fight as much as I think.

"Literally carrying the love of Cunei all by yourself?

You may be right, but it's a little embarrassing!
