Chapter 18 - Battle Against Giganto-Bolk
○○○ Class Will Bean's Point of View
Just now I, in the cathedral, witnessed something unbelievable. A strange object, a rock I think, suddenly appeared in the skies far above us following the『Meteor Rain』Iris chanted, and it suddenly exploded. I thought I should prepare for the shockwave, but all the detonated energy and objects rained down on the surrounding evil tribes. Honestly, the sight made me doubt my eyes. I thought that such a large-scale magic was impossible even for the saint Iris, and I tried to call it to Sasha, but she stared at where the explosion occurred, desperately controlling this magic. Oi oi, can you do that by yourself? She suddenly appeared, taught us『Magical Power Cladding』, Bahn-san the completed form of flame magic, and me『Tornado Bomb』, and now she was taking it to the extremes with this large-scale magic. Bahn-san was also staring at Sasha. Bahn-san and I nodded at each other, probably thinking the same thing. -----Thank GOD she's our ally.
But, considering her way of thinking and teaching, she's probably a reincarnee like me or a summoned from another world. Let's ask her later.
And now, we, the four members of “Gale”, were heading to fight the 2 Class evil tribes in the complete opposite direction. Next to me were the usual members: Roy Crottos, Mia Throttle, and Himika Kristen. We were inseparable friends from adventurer school, and they were reliable friends. While we were running Mia asked me something.
She's as cute as usual. And man, her chest. It's huge.
“Hey, Will, what kind of person do you think Sashsan is? I know she's someone who can be trusted, but she clearly has an abnormal amount of power. There's no way I could control that large-scale magic alone like her.” (Mia)
Himika agreed to this as well. Her blue hair went down to her waist, and she was as cute as Mia, but she liked Roy so much it was terrifying. Clearly speaking, she was a stalker.
“No kidding. That control ability,『Magical Power Cladding』,『Tornado Bomb』, and her way of thinking for『------』…she's a monster.” (Himika)
It seemed Roy showed opposition to this.
Roy-----his light brown hair is ruffled, he's a very normal man! Definitely not an ikemen or anything like that! Ku!
“Oi oi, what a terrible thing to say. Well, I know what you want to say, but I'm sure she's an ally that can be trusted. Will even made a pass at her at the end.” (Roy)
Mia's atmosphere changed. She stared fixedly at me, her eyes narrow.
Roy, what are you saying? I absolutely did not make a pass at her-----I didn't, right?
“Um, Mia, don't misunderstand. Never did I make a pass at Sasha because she was cute or anything like that, I just said ‘when the evil tribes have been subjugated, best regards from here on out'.” (Will)
----It feels like I half made a pass at her.
“For now, let's leave it at that. Well, I see the gate.” (Mia)
This is the worst, Mia's scary later when she's like this. Roy, you bastard, I'll remember this. When I looked at Roy, he averted his eyes and whistled. Yep, I'll get even with you later. Whatever, I'll use this to fight. When we arrived at the gate and looked at the evil tribes, their numbers had been considerably reduced by『Meteor Rain』, but there were still a lot of them. Oi oi, even if we do have Magical Power Cladding, this many is quite severe. Let's have hope in Himika and Mia's new magic.
Suddenly, I heard the evil dragon's roar, and the evil tribes all roared at once and headed this way. Adventurers started to panic, so I made them calm down with a held-back『Overpower』.
“Calm down, everyone. Mia and Himika will shoot a new magic now. It's quite wide and powerful, so we won't go yet. Leave it to those two!” (Will)
Mia and Himika calmly smiled.
“Will, leave it to me.” (Mia)
“Roy, I'll shock you when you see it.” (Himika)
Mia and Himika started concentrating on the new magic. How serious. I heard it was quite difficult to control, how did they overcome it? Oh, is it starting! Mia's right hand and Himika's left hand were connected.
“Attribute of Flame”, red flames appeared from Mia's left hand, and…
“Attribute of Storm”, a round tornado similar to me appeared from Himika's right hand.
The flames and tornado moved right above the evil tribes, and then combined.
After that, the joined magic rapidly became bigger, and then compressed to about 10 meters in diameter. Oi oi, I sense a terrible magic power from that sphere. What the hell has begun? The evil tribes also stopped moving, entering a battle posture against that sphere.
“”Eat this, combination magic『Flame Prominence』.”” (MiHimika)
What happened after that could only be described as one thing—a masterpiece. A giant dragon of red flames appeared from the round sphere and swallowed the evil tribes. With no time to escape the evil tribes were wrapped up in a storm of red flames.
“----What amazing----magical power. Is this the new magic?” (Roy)
Roy's surprised at this too, huh?
“What a god damn nasty magical power! Is this their secret plan?” (Random Adventurer)
The surrounding adventurers were also dumbfounded. That's natural, though.
“We successfully used it for the first time in actual combat, Himika.” (Mia)
“Yep, the power was more than expected. The number was reduced even further with this, so the battle should be a bit easier.” (Himika)
Cheers were being raised from the surrounding adventurers. Morale swelled even higher.
“Alright, we're going to where the Class guys are! Leave the Class guys to us, everyone. We'll definitely kill them. I leave the rest to you guys!” (Will)
“””OOOOOOOOOOHHHH, LEAVE IT TO USSSSSSSSS!!!””” (Adventurers)
Ignoring the agonized and suffering evil tribes, we pushed our way through to where the Class evil tribes were. Of course, quite a lot of evil tribes of C-Class or higher struck back at us even if they were a little injured, but we ignored them.
“Mia and Himika, you both are amazing, developing a magic like that.” (Will)
“No kidding. That power was a force to be reckoned with. Is your guys' magical power alright?” (Roy)
Himika answered Roy's question.
“Since I used it with Mia and not much was wasted, it's okay. I want to thank Sasha.” (Himika)
“Yeah, it's thanks to Sasha. I was too fixated on doing it alone. The demerits are improved a lot by using it with 2 people.” (Mia)
Magic that suggests “working together”, as the name suggests, it really is combination magic.
Oh, did the Class guys come into view?
At any rate, these guys are our opponents, huh? They're not as big as the evil dragon. Two opponents: a giganto-bolk, and the lizardman's superior evolution. Spanning 4 meters, it's a troublesome foe that has a large sword and a shield, is powerful and quick, and it even uses earth and quake attribute evil magic. Well, in game terms, it's a balance-oriented type. The other one is a giganto-bolk, the iron bear's superior evolution. It looks like the mixture of a bear and a dragon. It's 6 meters long, and has a huge club. At first glance, it looks like an attack power-oriented type, but its defensive power is quite high, and it breathes red-hot breath too; it's a troublesome foe. It's suffered a bit of damage from Sasha's『Meteor Rain』. 『Flame Prominence』really doesn't reach this far, huh?
Out of all the evil tribes, it just had to be these guys, huh? They're largely related opponents.
“Mia and I'll kill the giganto-bolk. Roy and Himika, you guys get the giganto-lizard.” (Will)
“”Got it!”” (Roy+Himika)
“Let's do this, Mia.” (Will)
“Okay!” (Mia)
Usually, you had a high chance of dying if you didn't face a giganto-bolk with at least 4 people. But, how about now? 『Magical Power Cladding』was a technique that clad the outside of your body in magical power. Though Sasha taught me the basics, she said “You should arrange it for yourself”. So, I added the wind attribute to the magical power cladding my body. I had a hard time controlling it at first, but as you see, now I can do it with ease. Now, how about I try it out?
The giganto-bolk brandished it club, and swung it down at me.
《Woosh…BAAAAAAM》
“!! Why's it striking so slow?” (Will)
The scary thing about a giganto-bolk was how fast it swung its huge club downward. An incomplete speed. Even if I realized it was swinging, I would've died many times over by now. If I received a direct hit, I'd ‘exit the stage' in one shot. And the scariest thing was its red-hot breath it suddenly fired with it. Before, I was focused on its club, so my right hand was grilled by its breath. At any rate, I felt that the speed at which it was swinging downward now was slow. It wasn't because it was damaged. I felt it was about half as slow as what I've seen before. Does『Magical Power Cladding』affect me this much?
“Mia!” (Will)
“Okay, 『Ice Machine Gun』, gooooo!” (Mia)
《Woosh, thud thud thud thud thud thud thud》
The bullets fired at a terrifying speed, partly due to the effects of『Magical Power Cladding』. This magic itself was a technique I taught Mia. The memories of my previous life really were useful. But, though they dealt quite a bit of damage, they didn't penetrate, as expected of an Class.
“Gwaaaaaaaaa!”
Hrg, it lifted a rock up and threw it up. What's it planning? It's preparing to use its club. -------Not good!
“Mia! Please use that shield. And hurry!” (Will)
“Okay------『Reflector Shield』” (Mia)
Immediately after the huge rock appeared in front of it, it grandly brandished its club.
《BAAAAAAAAAM》
The rock broke, the fragments were about to fall on us. This was unavoidable! But just before they hit, they were stopped by the shield. That was dangerous, it was a hair's breadth.
“These fragments…I'll return them to you with double the power. Eat this!” (Will)
All the fragments joined with the shield were given Mia's magical power, and were fired at the giganto-bolk. But……
“GUAAAAAAAAAAH”
Oi oi, it stopped using『Overpower』and dropped its damn speed. There's almost no damage? And, it's starting to clad itself in evil power. I could clearly see that it also became able to use『Magical Power Cladding』itself. Mia appeared to have realized as well. Does this mean it's getting serious as well?
Huh? What? The evil power's concentrated on its left arm. And, in martial arts terms, it's in a fist strike stance¹. Hmm, I've seen situations similar to this in manga, but…wait, is it-----! This place will be dangerous if the technique I think he'll use comes! My friends are behind me. Damn it, I won't make it in time! We have no choice but to hold it back.
“Mia, I know it's sudden, but please do combination magic with me!” (Will)
“C-Combine with you!?” (Mia)
I feel like her nuance of ‘combination' is somewhat different from mine. But I can't afford to worry about that now.
“We'll both use the storm attribute and make the『Storm Tornado』magic! Leave the image and control of the combination magic to me. I'll receive all of you.” (Will)
“Huhhhhh? O-Oh, okay!” (Mia)
Me and Mia had always been on the same team in the same class in the academy. I knew in full her flow of magical power. I connected my left hand with Mia's right, and imagined the combination magic. Though impromptu, this is enough!
“GAAAAAAAAAH.” 《BAAAAAAM》
The giganto-bolk has released its technique. Damn, it really is that skill, huh? If I remember correctly, it was B◯◯'s Regretful Attack², wasn't it? The damn thing gathered the flame attribute in it. Let's do our as well!
“Let's do this, Mia!” (Will) “Okay!” (Mia)
“”『Tornado Crusher』”” (Will+Mia)
《BAAAAAAAM》 Just like its, huh?
Its technique and our magic collided with one another. A thunderous roar sounded, so loud it just about burst my eardrums.
Tsk, is our power evenly matched because we did it impromptu? But evenly matched isn't what I wanted. Unless we get the leaking energy of the storm……
“I'll control the leaking energy of the storm. Will, please concentrate on the image.” (Mia)
“Got it.” (Will)
I'll rely on you, then. I imagined the tip of the magic being more sharp, piercing through.
“GOOOOOOOOO!!!!” (Will)
Though it struggled, our magic smashed through his technique. Hell yeah, did we win? The moment I thought that the magic hit it directly……
“GAAAAAAAAAH.”
That bastard, it changed the trajectory using its damn club. But, its left arm was completely annihilated.
“Damn it, I didn't think it'd change the trajectory.” (Will)
“Yeah, but we definitely gave it deep damage.” (Mia)
Then, how about I go there this time! I jumped into its chest, and drove a punch concentrated with a speck of magical power into its large abdomen.
《Thud》
“G-Gu-guuuuu.” (Will)
Ah, nice, it's working, the bastard's on his knees. If I just keep going----
“GUAAAAAAAAAHHH”
Oi oi, how can you afford to do that? It swung its club and took some distance.
“Well then, how about I try that too?” (Will)
Maybe it knew I was going to charge. It swung its club with skill, preventing from going into its chest. As I thought, that magic and the punch just now were effective. Before, this was a close fight. But now, I was avoiding its swinging club, and while Mia backed me up, I easily reached its mouth. And the second I did, it grinned. Shit, a trap!? It baited me!
By the time I noticed it, it was too late. From its mouth an extrlarge scorching breath was fired at me.
“No way, WILLLLLLLLL, NOOOOOOOO! DON'T DIEEEEEE” (Mia)
Mia screamed the moment I was wrapped in its breath. She won't forget the sight of my right arm being grilled right then, huh? Maybe I should tell her I'm fine. I flew to beside Mia.
“Mia, I won't be killed randomly like that. This bastard…it really did work. Thanks to me instantly changing to an entire-body defense, I didn't take that much damage. If not for『Magical Power Cladding』, I really would've died, though.” (Will)
“Will! Thank god~~.” (Mia)
“Mia, celebrate after the fight's finished.” (Will)
“Oh, yes!” (Mia)
“Oi, giganto-bolk, thank you for that nice breath. To return the favor, this time I'll do something good to ya. Here,『Tornado Bomb』.” (Will)
It was worn out from firing the breath, so I moved atop its shoulders and threw a『Tornado Bomb』into its mouth. I got away from it in a hurry, observing it, and from its body……
《BAAAAAAM》
“Ooh, as expected of an Class, it didn't explode. It's just barely alive.” (Will)
“KyaA, what's with that sound! It's about to die just from one shot. I'll finish it with this, then!『Lightning Break』” (Mia)
Ooh, she's immediately using the magic I taught her. 『Lightning Break』is something I improved from『Lightning Bolt』. Normally, lightning coming from the sky loses quite a bit of energy until it reaches the ground from it branching several times. Just lightning fired at a place is『Lightning Bolt』, and lightning fired at a place without any wasted energy is『Lightning Break』.
A big bolt of lightning fell, directly hitting the giganto-bolk.
Ooh, with the moisture from the ice rifle from a little bit ago and my blood on itself, it was shocked so badly it's scaring me. After the lightning settled, it crumpled down, dead. At any rate, that breath from before was really dangerous. Mia really was worried about me, huh?
“Hey, Mia, I'm fine. Sorry to make you worry.” (Will)
“Uu, I thought you really died. Geez, please don't leave me in front of me.” (Mia)
“Yeah, got it. Sorry.” (Will)
Mia smiled a lot. Eh? Why?
“Yes~! I got a promise~.” (Mia)
Huh? You got what now? Well for now, let's nod.
“Yeah, I got it, so let's concentrate on the battle for now. This is the end of the first one. Honestly, it's been about 20 minutes since we met this one here. A little while ago, it would've taken 30 minutes with the 4 of us being serious.” (Will)
“Fufufu, oh…yeah, that's true. 『Magical Power Cladding』…how terrifying. Thanks to our raised magical power, we were able to kill it fairly easily.” (Mia)
It really was terrifying. In my case, I have the『Body Strengthening』skill too, so I'm more strengthened than Mia is. I mean, I endured that scorching breath. This power is definitely that of an S-Class. Oh, have Roy and Himika finished up their opponent was well?
