Chapter 113


Chapter 113 Strongest Sage, Vanishes


" . . . W-what the h.e.l.l are you!"


A demon asked in surprise when I showed myself up while killing the third demon .


"T . . . This guy"s Mathias! Spread out as planne--"


Looks like one of the demons know my face .


I activate 【Shrinking Ground】 when I see that demon trying to give an instruction .


"Wha, he disa--"


A demon shouted out in surprise when they saw me suddenly vanishing .


Looks like those demons lost sight of me just now .


It should have been easy to break through 【Shrinking Ground】 by simply looking at the mana reaction . . . . Present day demons really aren"t used to combat .


Thus I kindly show myself up in front of the demon so they won"t lose sight of me even by mistake .


" . . . Eh?"


I swing my sword horizontally at the demon who couldn"t grasp what was going on and let out a stupid voice .


The demon couldn"t react until its end as its head got lopped off in one slash and fell to the ground .


Ten remain .


It"ll be troublesome if it took the group under control .


Defeating the one who looks like they could take lead is the basic of combat against groups .


"Th . . . this guy can vanish!"


"How"d you even fight something like--"


The demons shout out in fear after seeing my move just now .


They"ve completely lost their wits . They look like they"re ready to run away anytime now .


. . . . Letting them run will be annoying .


If this many demons use 『Fullpower Flight』 all at once, some could likely escape .


Since The 『Great Barrier of Royal Capital』 that can prevent demons from going in and out is not operational yet .


OK . Let"s give them a hint .


When I think about it, it feels like I"m always doing sneak attacks whenever I"m fighting demons .


"It"s useless . You have no way to fight back inside this barrier . "


After saying that, I regulate my mana to make it look like an emission from barrier magic .


What a lame fake if I do say so myself .


"Barrier--I see! This guy makes himself disappears with control-type barrier! Destroy--"



However it seems the demons are tricked just fine .


The demons shoot out a huge amount of mana toward a point .


It"s a technique called 『Mana Saturation』 used for destroying simple barriers .


With a cracking sound, something seemed like it broke behind me .


Yup, an expected response .


It was worth purposely killing them in an impactful way to rob them off their ability to think calmly .


"Idiot! Combat-type barrier can be easily be broken off with mana!"


Of course the idiot here is the demons .


The barrier we set up isn"t so small it could be broken by this level of demon"s 『Mana Saturation』 .


The sound earlier was something I put out using magic in order to show these demons in an easy to understand way that the barrier had been broken .


"Eh? Why"d he disapp--"


While thinking that, I activated 【Shrinking Ground】 once again and killed the demon who was giving orders .


I also killed two other nearby demons while I was at it .


Seven remain now .


. . . Should be about time to make it look like they"ve dealt with 【Shrinking Ground】 .


Since they"ll likely try to escape if they get too cornered .


And so, I run toward a demon without vanishing myself by kicking barrier magic on my foot .


"I can see him! I can see him! Now we--GUAAAAAA"


When the demon saw me rushing toward it, it shouted out in delight as it swung its magic augmented sword while also shooting a magic .


I put 【Steel Slash】 and 【Mana Strike】 on my sword and cut the demon along with the sword it was going to use to block my sword .


Yup . The new sword is nicely sharp .


This time it had the time to scream its last since I cut its body, not neck .


"Mo . . . Monster!"


The remaining demons who saw that backed off while shouting fearfully .


I mean I"m human, I don"t think it"s right for the demons to call me monsters . . . .
