Tsuki Ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu
Chapter 77: Star Lake

While Makoto was sleeping —-

An unseemly youngster was dragging one of his legs on the battlefield as he greeted the comrade returning from the sky.

So, is it over? (Lancer)

"Maybe. I went to the highest footing you prepared. It was my first experience facing from the clouds. Don't you know how to hold back? ” (Sofia)

The woman who landed did not mind the nagging tone of the child and simply replied.

“I didn't think my sword would break like that. It was as if I was in a nightmare. I admit I'm a bit panicked "(Lancer)

“I'm really the one who experienced it, so I was even more surprised. The weapons that perverts have are also on the level of pervert huh. It was a dagger I had never seen before "(Sofia)

“I also don't remember ever seeing a dagger like that. If possible, I would like to collect it and duplicate it at our headquarters but... ”(Lancer).

The child-shaped supreme dragon looked at the sword he had in his hand. Only a small part of the base remained from the blade.

“So you took it. Thank ye. I really thought you were frozen in ice and died from shock. Seems that's not the case, good-bye ”(Sofia)

“It was a part of me, so obviously I will do it. However, the moment it broke, I felt pain as if my entire body was torn apart. Even though I was inside an annoying ice box, the pain was resuscitating me and I felt like I was dying ”(Lancer)

“Yeah, sorry to hear that. Now, let's give the previous signal to the devil and just relax. As expected, I cannot fight for some time ”(Sofia)

“... Your sword is broken and your armor is destroyed. You're even more tattered than when you fought me. That your fighting spirit has not weakened is praiseworthy, or more like a surprise "(Lancer)

Lancer's words smelled of sarcasm. And at the same time, he also praised the ability of his colleague Sofia.

“In your case, you killed my friends, right? Well, they were reckless people who gathered to kill the dragon "(Sofia)

"Fumu, this time no one dies huh" (Lancer)

“Yes, almost all of my equipment is up and my body is all messed up. Even so this might be better. We are capable of handling a pervert named Raidou or something like that. In a country without heroes, we will be able to do enough damage to stop the function of Limia ”(Sofia)

One could feel astonishment in Sofia's words. Even for the girl named Dragon Slayer who had gone through many battles, the merchant who called himself Raidou was an existence that he could not understand.

An anti-magic sword filled with supreme dragon power against the barrier. In the attack he had given her all, she could only compensate for the barrier. A very strong barrier. And despite all that, he took the time to reform the barrier himself.

Using a certain amount of time that could be called too long on the battlefield to confirm the situation, and on top of that, the hesitant part was only about escaping from the start. After that, it uses tracking magic that Sofia has never seen before. Thinking about the cost and performance of the homing function, this is an inefficient action that no one will do.

His sword skills are like a beginner growing up ***********. For his skill with the dagger to be like that, it was terrifying. To the extent that people would think he was making fun of the battlefield. At least, that was how Sofia felt.

(But that last attack ... For some reason, at one time, Raidou stepped forward. Although he was shocked and showed signs of retreat. Therefore, he was able to collide with the sword with me, moreover, he broke my sword) (Sofia)

In that movement, he felt it was not his own will but an instinctive action that appeared. A move that contradicted the predictions of the Dragon Killer.

The thought of stepping forward against an impending weapon was an action practically impossible for a witch to take. Even if he was called a merchant. However, Raidou managed to do so. It made Sofia wonder if Raidou really had any experience in swordsmanship.

(Did you tell me in that situation that his body was able to remember those movements and relate his actions? He didn't give me the impression that he was very well trained to be able to do something like that. That means ..) (Sophia )

"Oi, there's something ..." (Lancer)

Words like Lancer's whisper returned Sofia's consciousness to reality. He immediately understood why he was looking at the sky with a distorted expression.

From the sky, several dozen blue lines descended from the sky. Breaking through the clouds, they all descended without any difference.

Each one was thin and pierced the ground like a bullet. If Lancer's barrier wasn't there, the bullet would hit where the two of them were. The bullet force was at a level that Lancer's defense was capable of resisting, but it was an attack that did not weaken. Thinking about the numbers, it was at a level that would rain for 10 minutes or so on the battlefield.

The demon army that continued their march, seeing the blue light fall, people knew that they were falling into chaos. Fortunately, it didn't seem like there would be a second round falling, but it was a situation where they couldn't relax.

“?! This is!" (Sophia)

“Sialan Raidou, did he tell us that he will take us to his grave ?!” (Lancer)

"I'm leaving! I'll go and block him. If this continues, the army will be affected! " (Sophia)

“Sofia, you can't! With the attack just now, the blades that were working as a foothold were all destroyed. It was unexpected that he could destroy that many swords! " (Lancers)

“Then create more now. Next round maybe.. wait ”(Sofia).

Sofia's words urging Lancer to be stopped in the middle of the road. His eyes looked up at the sky again. Looking at the clouds blocking the view of the one person who should be there.

“... Attacks to destroy a foothold in order not to pursue it. That one just for that reason right, Raidou? You tell us that your actual attack is coming now ”(Sofia)

Lancer's expression was filled with bitterness. Sofia also looked up.

This attack just now practically destroyed Makoto. Even with that, it was a magic with a wide area effect and with more than average power. And actually, the demon army that received this attack their formation was interrupted.

The element is water. Lancer looked at one of his legs. Unable to completely stop his attack, he received magic and was now frozen. He was not sure if he would be able to use it again, but at least he was sure a wound of this level would not let him use his legs on this battlefield.

“How much he'll make me laugh, that guy. This was not the amount of magic power that a single person could create! And you're telling me that she still has something up her sleeve? " (Sophia)

“Any water element. You could say he is quite confident with his ability with water ”(Lancer)

(But what does this mean? The water spirit did not lend its power to anyone in this place. Not only that, the magic power in the area was practically not used. There was no way he could make this spell without using magic.the power in the area ..) (Lancer)

The supreme dragon Lancer noticed a strange thing. A large amount of magic power was needed to perform a wide area attack magic. Of course, one would need the help of the spirits as well as the magic power around him. Because it's impossible to do it with your own magic power.

"Water. Then, with this ... "(Sophy)

Hearing Lancer's whisper, Sofia became enlightened and she held a necklace in her hands.

This was a product that allowed one to obtain the help of water spirits, and Lancer also knew of this property. However, its use is only one time. In the case of water, one might gain omnipotence over it. Very high-grade tool. It was so valuable that they did not use it to fight against Raidou's "arrow. Because Sofia and Lancer were confident they could survive without him. As a result, Lancer had an injury and when thinking about the current situation, it might have been the right decision to save him.

(Of course, with it we will be able to remove the influence of the water spirit from its spell. And usually it can even make him misfire. No matter what he tried to shoot, with the water spirit banning his skills, the attacks he would be able to shoot would be restricted. But ... What's with this bad feeling?) (Lancer)

“Lancer, I'm counting on you for a foothold. I'll go where the effective distance is and destroy the magic ”(Sofia)

"... That is, you can't Sofia" (Lancer)

"Why?" (Sophia)

“Because not yet certain. We will use it, however, it is for defense ”(Lancer)

Believing in her instincts as the supreme dragon, she gives instructions to Sofia.

And then he contacted the commander of the demon army. The commander who tried to calm the chaos received the contact of the two people who were in front and fought against the person called by the disturbing light. He immediately reacted to his message.

Even when looking at the golden light that was the hallmark of the Goddess, the commander was not controlled by hatred and just concentrated on regulating the new situation. Since the people heading to the light were Sofia and Lancer, controlling the army was easier. After all, he was a capable person.

'Prepare for incoming attacks all around and create defensive barriers as quickly as possible'

One could tell the demon army was reacting to the order immediately. As expected, they were highly trained, that was what Lancer thought in awe as he ignored the situation. But not much time left. The tensed magic power began to fuse together. Like an idiot who only knew one thing, he predicted that another “” arrows would come.

“Defense, huh. Entiendo. Surely, I have a bad feeling about this "(Sofia)

“That's how it is. You can go there, right? ” (Lancer)

Lancer pointed to the demon army. He had already deployed his glittering blade around him.

“By preparation. In that case, I will go ”(Sofia)

"I'm counting on you" (Lancer)

Sofia nodded at Lancer's words. Carrying her in his arms, he exchanged positions with a knife.

A loud sound pierced the ears of both of them. They are in the middle of the squad so as expected. The two rushed to the inside of the defensive barrier.

"And? Should I use this now? ” (Sofia)

Sofia held onto the necklace and asked Lancer.

"Let's see. In this section it should be fine. Sofia, use it just to cover us. Just in case ”(Lancer)

"?!"

"If placed on top of the barrier, my heart will not settle" (Lancer)

“... Although we have shared a table with them for a few days. How cruel ”(Sofia)

“It's not like we've been best friends. You too, I don't feel guilty for you? " (Lancers)

“After all, we are on the battlefield. In terms of position, we are mercenaries. We clearly see our lives as a priority. I will follow the decision of my partner ”(Sofia)

Sofia sends magical powers to a necklace of indigo blue jewels. The jewel glittered and shattered, enveloping the two of them with the same blue luster that the jewel produced.

"It's coming" (Lancer)

Lancer.

“Really, we are like a serb” snake (Sofia) < ⁇ ⁇ 、 ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ >

Sofia's words sounded as if she was regretting something, but her expression showed interest in what was about to happen.

“And then, here's the result. Wouldn't it be easier if we let them rush to Raidou's man and have him kill about half of them to tie them back in fear? " (Sophia)

“If it's only about results. Well, objectively, we might be able to negotiate with him "(Lancer)

"What do you mean?" (Sophia)

“That he might really want to cooperate with our cause, and for that sake Raidou will be tolerant. What do I assume "(Lancer)

"I saw. Impossible alternative yes ”(Sofia)

“You... you should have realized that he at least has hostility towards the Goddess right? But it's okay to see it like that ”(Lancer)

“It feels like that. If he was someone who did not care about the method to achieve a goal, this attack would be the awakening of the curtain. Ah, it will come ”(Sofia)

“Umu. You have a perception at the level of the demon race. As expected of you. Right on target ”(Lancer)

It seemed that normal demon soldiers were starting to feel the incoming attacks. Something similar to a scream was heard from here and there.

(Surprisingly terrifying magic power. If it came down just like that, even the scattered hyumans would be trapped inside! Ah, so. The strange thing was her magic power. Undoubtedly what was to come was that arrow magic. Not a large magic area. That meant, he did not use any magic power scattered in the world nor did he use any spirit support. He used his own magic resources to create magic on this scale. Then don't tell me the amount of magic power he has in him already ... ?!) (Lancer)

His mind was cut off at that moment.

Blue light illuminated his body.

—-

The distorted blue arrow opened a hole in the clouds.

The size is not too big. To the extent that one could not understand how he made such a huge hole in the clouds.

At first, seeing the difference between their size and the magic power they felt, they were as if all their tension had been lost.

But the change only lasted a moment.

No one knew what was happening inside the arrow, but a circular ripple was born from within it. It was as if an object fell onto the surface of the water whose ripples spread to the sky.

Some people noticed the arrow swelled up and accelerated.

Drawing a ripple in the sky once, the clear blue arrow repeated the same reaction.

3 times, 4 times. As the ripples increased in the sky, the arrows increased in size and speed.

It was already a gigantic spear that emitted a blue light. The spear penetrated the area a bit far from the center of the demon army.

The army should have created a defensive barrier around it. However, as if to say no, the spear began to pierce the crown of the army's head.

The last reaction occurred. But this time, there was nothing in the sky. It was because the spear was already in a state of being pierced in the middle of the army. It blew away the surrounding soldiers and when the distortion returned to its point of origin, strong winds replaced it and rampaged. The crushing wind instantly turned the demons within a vast scope into frozen statues. The spear that had created a disaster, replacing the ripples, was now accelerating and went into the hole entirely.

Momentary silence.

From the feet of all the demons, no, in the entire ground itself a light was emitted. In the beginning it illuminated the entire battlefield and extended into the sky like a line, furthermore, innumerable amounts of light of different thickness followed. In a short time, the landscape and sky were painted by light.

What an incredible view. This is the only word that describes this attack.

The spell magician, Mitsumi Makoto, probably did not expect this kind of spectacle to happen.

The makoto? He most likely thought this would only disturb the battlefield.

He didn't notice…

That the bride he shot at Sofia and Lancer was a completely different size from when he shot her in the distant sky. A magic that he activated while experiencing the battlefield, moreover, in a state where his mind was completely filled with danger for his life. A magic he created slowly while concentrating more than usual. The difference in strength is big. There was no doubt one of the reasons was because he could be in a normal state of mind in the distant sky, no, it was because this was the second time he had experienced an unfortunate incident that he could overcome.

In addition, he uses as a reference the ring's explosive force that destroys Tomoe's and Arke's barely-saved artificial body. And it only caused a chain explosion of 4 rings. Mitsumi Makoto judged her own magic power too low.

Every time a ring was broken, the bridge quickly increased its power range by leaps and bounds. Makoto would not even dream that it would make a ripple in the sky and turn into a giant spear, piercing into the ground.

That everything he saw, the rivers, rivers, forests, forests, grasslands where the demons were and even the distant dry brown land as well.

Everything is covered in light. The retreating hyuman army was no exception. In place they were also at the diameter of the light that the spear created.

Everything he touched froze and at the same time, overwhelmed by that enormous energy, they broke into dust. Turning into dust, they did not even leave a shadow and only colored the place in blue. The spear that fell from the sky had created a crushing dome in the hemisphere.

In an instant that felt like an eternity, the light continued to spread.

At such locations one can see destruction as if the place was ground up.

Large accumulations of water are slightly smaller than domes, but larger than ponds. A "lake" has been made.

How much strength would it take to achieve this? At least not within the scope that one person could have. It was worth calling it a tactical weapon.

In a place where there were forests as well as grasslands, one surface of water reflected the sky as if it had always been there from the very beginning. Water flows into several rivers around it, and flows back downstream. It was an attack that changed the map.

On the surface of the lake, it was rare, but there was a shadow of something floating in the air.

It practically did not move from its place. It was not a miraculously saved soldier. Most of them had almost no body parts left and the state of their corpses varied. No, to be able to maintain a part of your body in that destruction is enough to call it a miracle.

But the shadow is human. Not only did he maintain his entire body, while trembling, he placed his right hand on his face and moved the wet hair that was blocking his eyes.

It was the Dragon Killer, Sofia Bull.

When looking closely, close to him, one could also see a child who had lost one of his legs. Lancer.

"... Lancer, are you still alive?" (Sophia)

“… ..”

“Hey, that necklace. If it was used as a defense, even if it was only one time, wouldn't it be supposed to protect the user completely from water element magic? ” (Sofia)

“……”

"" Substitute "I was destroyed, my order's armor was destroyed and practically everything related to defense was smashed? Look at me, I'm naked, NAKED ”(Sofia)

As he said, he was almost naked right now. His shirt was torn and there was little left, but there was no way anyone could expect any effect other than working as a cloth.

"… I saw. It took one of my legs "(Lancer)

The leg he was dragging was gone. He was not left unscathed.

"Raidou, that bastard is dead, right?" (Sophia)

“... May. He's probably floating like us "(Lancer)

Without exchanging a glance, the two of them looked up at the sky while talking. They didn't even touch on the topic of why they were floating. That must be because somewhere in their minds, they understood that they had miraculously survived. That was what their eyes said as they looked at the distant sky.

“... I think we should find him and kill him before he grows up. If he learns competence and foundation, all hope will be lost ”(Sofia)

"He died. He fell and died. For now just stop there. After all, even if we were to look for him now, there was no guarantee that we could kill him. First we must heal our wounds and prepare our equipment. I won't be able to handle having a mysterious body, which even I don't know its origin, destroying our itinerary ”(Lancer)

“Maybe he won't go all out?” (Sophia)

Sofia's expression became somewhat weak. He felt Raidou might not be serious. Of course, he fought against the Dragon Slayer. He was most likely serious, or so he wanted to believe. There was a little doubt in his heart.

"I don't understand. I don't understand at all. It is as if we were blindfolded by the Goddess. I don't know what happened and I can't explain it at all. Being like this, I really want to ask some questions to that Goddess. Maybe we should show him, that way we might hear him someday. About who called him "(Lancer)

“Raidou yes. I thought about playing with the heroes for a while, but now I won't be able to do that ”(Sofia)

The same aggressive smile he showed Raidou once again appeared on his lips. Although it was a situation where they were practically unable to move, he was already thinking of fighting.

“Leave it for later. Finish my task first before chasing after Raidou. After setting up your equipment and restoring your strength, you can go for a Replay "(Lancer)

The grieving Lancer proposed a plan.

"… You are right. I understand Mitsurugi. My card is not enough to hunt it "(Sofia)

"First of all, we must regain our stamina and return to land" (Lancer)

"Yes, we are so immobile" (Sofia)

They both laughed on the surface.

On this day, out of the 10 or so that miraculously survived this tragic event, a rumor was born between hyumans and demons.

About someone wearing red clothes, the third envoy of the Goddess. It is said that he has a tall figure and peerless beauty and his young age.

The rumour of the small whisper was proved true by the lake and word slowly spread to the world.

"Devil"

That she was called like that, Mitsumi Makoto still did not know.
