Chapter 257


Chapter 257 Rummages Around


"Guh . . . "


The demon who"s had a part of its wing damaged slows down .


Looks like it"s still trying to gain speed, but a demon cannot displays their mobility when the magic circuits in their wings aren"t in perfect condition .


I unleash the main magic for this battle at that demon .


--『Magic Spear』 .


It"s a magic that simply has a high penetration power formed by high quality mana .


"GUAAAAAAAAAA!!"


The [Magic Spear] pierced through the demon"s body .


Disqualified Crest is the strongest crest as long as you can take care of its range problems .


Higher quality mana from experience points and reinforced magic circuits from training .


Put these two together and you can even pierce through a high-ranking demon"s body .


. . . I need about five of these spears to defeat one demon huh .


While thinking that I jump back .


A moment later, A high level attack magic rained down the spot I was in .


You invite enemy"s a.s.saults if you just keep attacking in one spot without moving .


In terms of pure magical firepower and physical prowess, the demons are still above me like usual .


It"s battle experience and techniques where I surpa.s.s them .


In order to make use of those advantages to their fullest, I need to run around the battlefield and refrain from challenging them head on with brute forces .


Besides--I"m not the only one throwing chaos into the battlefield .


"Dammit, annoying fly!"


A demon who was going to go after me cursed out in irritation .


Alma"s magic jamming arrow struck the demon when it was about to cast an attack magic at the spot I was heading to, stopping its casting .


I didn"t teach Alma and Ruli only about simple augment and attack magic .


Comprehend the flow of battle and wisely choose an attack that will turn the battle in our favor .


I let the two fight demons in the past in order to foster the necessary discretion .


『Next one is ordinary attack magic!』


『Gotcha!』


They just didn"t have the powers to make the best use of it .


But it"s different now .


Ruli can immediately discern which augment magic to use and quickly perform the augmentation .


Since she"s got the magic circles she uses by memory, it may be less flexible than composing them on the spot . . . Nevertheless, it"s more than good enough to change the tide of battle .


Just by hearing what kind of magic Ruli will augment next, Alma immediately perceives where she should shoot and then accurately hits the enemy .


This is only possible once she"s capable of observing the entire battlefield on top of her targets and which enchant magic to use .


"I"ll take care of that side first!"


"Ou!"


The demons must have judged that they"re at a disadvantage fighting both sides at the same time .


One of the demons ignored me and rushed toward the room where Ruli and Alma were .


That"s when I give instructions to Iris .


Iris hasn"t partic.i.p.ated in the battle so far, but that"s not because she"s slacking off .


She"s simply holding her position in order to reliably carry out her role .


"Iris!"



"Yes!"


Iris replied shortly, put herself at the spot where the door was--and swung her right leg downward with all her strength .


The ground broke apart, Iris"s right leg sunk into it .


Looks like she"s attaching her right leg in the floor to prevent getting blown away .


--And then Iris thrust her spear the shoulder of the demon who was aiming for Ruli and Alma .


"Ga . . . "


The demon got blown a few meter back in the air .


Its shoulder has been completely pulverized .


"GAAAAAAAAAA!"


"What power . . . Is she even human?"


The demon must have thought that the spear would bounce off its body due to the vast gap of strength between humans and demons .


But unfortunately for it, Iris is the dark dragon .


Even in her human form, her strength is overwhelming .


"I won"t let you get past me!"


Ignoring the demon, Iris readied her spear and made a declaration .


All routes to pa.s.s through the door are completely within the range of the huge spear in her hand .


As long as Iris is standing before the door, no demon would get to Ruli and Alma .


But even demons would have a hard time trying to drive away Iris from her position .


--The door"s watchdog .


That"s Iris"s role in this battle .


Flying right above Iris, one of Alma"s arrows struck a demon .


Alma can unilaterally attack the demons so long as Iris is protecting the door .
