The Necromancers
Ch. 45.3:Betting In (3)

In front of them, Thunro who was seen was fending both his hands forward, there was a stone wall in front of him that emitted a yellow lightning spark around the stone wall with its light that made them look terrifying and terrifying.

Thunro who exhaled through the sidelines in his nose raised his hands up, hitting the ground level in front of him after the wall before him vanished.

The numerous earth mounds that led to them that were accompanied by flashes of lightning striking at the ground surface spread out in all directions in their direction making them look prepared to deal with it.

"Friya, Reita!"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Understand."

Reita who directs one of his arms forward and then lifted up to make the surface of the surrounding land changed thanks to [Change Material] into a large amount of stone that layered to protect them with a circular shape.

Followed by Friya who exerted a number of mana around her bright blue body, he pointed his magic wand forward which had been flowed by his mana gathered at the end of his magic wand and disappeared instantly.

A few seconds after the amount of mana at the end of his magic wand disappeared, some [Magic Barrier] formed lining the stone protecting them into multiple layers making the passage difficult to penetrate with just a small attack.

The magic itself was none other than [Ultimate Barrier], a magic derivative of [Magic Barrier] that Friya had cast a magic spell with briefly and quickly through her heart.

*dum!

The impact of the earth mound accompanied by lightning sparks striking the ground surface that spread in all directions clashed against each other on the rocks and the [Magic Barrier] that coated the rocks.

Judging from the vibration, it was quite strong enough to be felt by Thunro, but it was different from those in the depths of the rocks and the [Ultimate Barrier] created by Friya.

Instead of it feeling strong and great at its vibration, it actually looked like a light vibration that in a matter of seconds simply vanished.

"Is it finished?"

"Not yet."

"Yes, we just have to wait for the right time to reply."

"All right."

Hearing the words of Friya and Reita who were able to feel the existence of the power that was still felt by them on the mound of earth and lightning sparks that were still clashing against each other with rocks and [Magic Barrier] which they both had put before, Shilphonia was convinced that the decision of waiting would come.

During Shilphonia's wait, she quickly closed her eyes trying to communicate with her other personality that was inside her body.

"So, why are you here?"

"I want you to help me. Can you do it?"

"What do you want from me? I'm not as strong as I was in the past to deal with it. Even if I could, I could only hold back his movements."

"Fufufu. As long as you can hold it to move, that's more than enough."

Shocked at the short and easy-sounding request, Stephani still did not understand what Shilphonia was thinking in asking for her help this time around.

Usually Shilphonia always asked for help to exchange bodies and places as happened in 'Night Hunt', this time Shilphonia did not ask for it which made Stephani look at her suspiciously.

"Stop looking at me like that, Stephani! I'll explain everything so you understand what I mean."

"alright. I'll hear it first."

Approaching Shilphonia, Stephani brings her face and ears closer to her while focusing on her hearing to find out what plans Shilphonia has in helping her little things she wants, Stephani keeps listening to it to the end.

"Do you understand?"

"Yes, I will do it for you without any reward. Remember, just this time, do you understand?"

"Yes, I get it."

"It is good that you understand it."

Quickly, Stephani who extended her hand forward to Shilphonia's chest gave a little mana of her to transfer to Shilphonia so that she could use her strength for a while in restraining the movement of Thunro's monsters.

Shilphonia who felt a slight amount of mana sensation in her body, smiled. He was confident that this would be useful for the fight later, Shilphonia confidently thought that this would work out completely without the slightest mistake.

"Now return!"

"Yes-yes, it's up to you."

Instead of ignoring Shilphonia's heartfelt words, Stephanie was delighted in her heart when she found out that Shilphonia, the other personality, had grown and developed beyond what she had been expecting.

At first Stephani thought that Shilphonia would constantly ask her for help as long as she needed Stephani, but her estimates were completely wrong. Shilphonia, who no longer needs herself, makes Stephani confident that she can rely on herself with all her strength without needing help from her, which makes Stephani can relax longer in her body without the hassle of overcoming her problems.

Although in her heart there is envy and jealousy over her that is not needed by Shilphonia, Stephanie's heart still tries hard so that she does not look weak in front of him at this time or the next.

After an attack from a mound of earth and a flash of lightning striking at the ground surface that spread out in all directions, Friya and Reita who removed all protection made them notice Thunro's silent condition.

Now time!

With a single, forward-stretched hand movement directed at Thunro, Shilphonia who had summoned a barrage of golden-colored chains that emerged from the ground and several magic circles managed to lock onto Thunro's movements.

"You guys, get ready to make the strongest attack!"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Thank you, Shilph!"

"Send me!"

In contrast to Friya who still provide protection to each of their bodies, [Ultimate Barrier], the, Reita, who quickly activated the two rocks that appeared on either side, just in case to protect her as she approached Thunro, he also added some [Golem Arm] that was in front and behind him which amounted to 4 hands of golems, Reita intended to do so.

Not only [Golem Arm], Reita who added some other abilities, [Wind Slash] who had been strengthened on the tip of his sword was a pitch-black gift from Regard, who had been given a black sword, he slashed it once towards Thunro's chest causing the wind to blow fiercely.

Not wasting the opportunity, Reita who twisted her body to make a second attack, she used the [Wind Slash] that was placed on the tip of her sword, which she had, he slashed it three times on Thunro's body causing the area around him to start blowing strong winds that were able to make dust grains as well as lightning sparks that hit Thunro's body look like a fog filled with lightning bolts in it.

Finished by Reita, Sasaki who flew to the ceiling in the forest that was higher above the trees, he aimed Thunro to be his target, intending to shoot him.

Several missiles that lead to Thunro in large numbers successfully hit his body behind the black smoke due to the reaction of the elements between wind and lightning, a loud explosion sounded.

Before the missile hit Thunro's body, Thunro, who was ejecting large chunks of rock, pointed them around his body, which allowed him to survive Sasaki's previous attack.

"It's my turn now!"

In the vicinity of Shilphonia and Friya, Fuuya who deployed a large amount of mana around his body, intended to end this fight sooner than before.

The light blue mana that came out forming a look like Fenrir could be clearly seen by Shilphonia and Friya, they were surprised by Fuuya's overuse of mana.

Instead of it being used to end the fight that was happening now, Fuuya actually had two different goals that were deliberately exerting all his abilities on them.

First, Fuuya took the initiative to show them that he had no intention of letting himself fall to be the weakest of them, on the contrary, Fuuya who shows his strength and ability to want to be recognized that he does not hesitate to finish off anyone who dares to challenge him, Fuuya will exert all his abilities in the fight against the person who challenges it.

Second, Fuuya wished to immediately put an end to the wasted time currently. The only thought that continued to fill his mind was the condition of Regard, the figure who had accompanied him all this time in the room as well as the person who could understand the pain of the loneliness Fuuya felt, Fuuya was afraid that it was too late when they arrived at where Regard was.

One mistake that would be fatal to Fuuya would be the loss of Regard.

In the absence of a register, he believes that he will return to himself in a past filled with loneliness and silence that makes him in the darkness and adversity that exists like the past shown in the previous Regard.

Therefore, Fuuya refused to spend any longer in the fight because he was fed up with everything so he would put all his skills into this match for the sake of both Regard and himself, both are his top priority.

Shilphonia POVs

So strong.

Are Fenrir's powers and abilities at the same level as Regard's?

I don't know for what happened earlier at Mount Baurme in the fight between Regard and Fuuya, but the only thing I'm sure of now is that this Fenrir can't be underestimated in the slightest.

What my fate will be like when we first meet and fight, I don't know. Judging from the amount of mana on his body being ejected, I might end up having trouble getting a long distance while facing him.

Overall, Fenrir and I have a difference in attack. I attacked from a distance whereas Fenrir, he had an attack at close range, the two of us were at odds with each other.

"Let's start this fight, Goddamn Monster!"

With the mana seen to have a shape like Fenrir, Fuuya darted quickly from where he was heading to the golem.
