Chapter 56
“First I’ll attack and lure them to lower their altitude . After that, shoot the weaker one with your arrows . The first demon I’m going to attack is the weaker one . ”
“Roger!”
“I understand! . . . . But Mathi-kun, are your mana alright?”
“Honestly, I don’t have enough for frontal attack . ”
Even if I were in my top form, the demons’ magical firepower would still be superior .
Thus, it isn’t possible for me to defeat them in a straight fight with my mana being only at 10% of the usual .
“Then how are you . . . . ”
“If my mana isn’t enough, then I just need to use the enemy’s mana . ”
“Y-You can do that!?”
“It’s a relatively complex magic, so you’ll have to wait before I teach you it . . . . Well then, I’ll be charging on them . Prepare the arrows and wait here . ”
I jumped off the ground, and kicked off barrier magic I continuously invoked mid-air, heading toward one of the demons .
“Enemy attack, Desiril!”
The stronger demon noticed me when I was several steps away from them .
“Impossible! How could he notice us at this distance!”
The weaker demon (seemed to be called Desiril) shouted out while blocking my sword .
Since I wouldn’t deliver passable damage on them even if I used magic here, I surrendered my body to the gravity and fell down after exchanging blow once .
“You seem to be good at detection, and for a mere human to be flying in the sky . . . . Don’t tell me, you’re the human who killed Devilis?”
“What if I am?”
“Either way, you are still a human . –Die!”
The stronger demon shot a magic at me while saying that .
It’s an orthodox flame magic, but the power is remarkably huge . The current me would instantly die if I got hit by that .
When I saw that, I constructed a magic using half of my remaining mana .
The magic is called 【Control Sphere】, an original magic I created in my past life .
I didn’t have many chances to use it in my past life, but making this was the correct answer .
If invoked the magic as is, it would have consumed too much mana, thus I had re-arranged the spell impromptu just now–looks like it went well .
“Mu!?”
Numerous 【Control Spheres】 that appeared around me twisted the direction of the flame magic, turning it toward the stronger demon .
The demon tried to evade, but I used the 【Control Spheres】 to turn the magic again, successfully hitting the demon .
“Gah . . . . ”
“Ashril-sama!”
Since it was a powerful magic, the demon suffered a huge damage .
Ashril’s face warped, at the same time, I extinguished the next magic Ashril tried to shoot .
After returning the magic once, the 【Control Spheres】 went back to my side .
This is the strong point of 【Control Sphere】 . Once invoked, it will persist to control the enemy’s magic until it’s destroyed by a huge magic .
“To think it erased my magic–then!”
However, Ashril immediately fixed his stance and plunged at me with a drawn sword .
Apparently, he’s way more experienced in fighting than Devilis .
Following after him, Desiril also headed toward me .
Against the coming demons, I invoked a barrier magic above me, kicked off it and accelerated below .
The demons pursued me .
After I’ve fallen enough, I point my sword at Desiril and declare .
“Now’s your chance!”
” . . . . Mu?”
The demons don’t seem to understand the meaning of my shout .
They only looked bewildered for an instant before they continued rushing with their swords ready .
Pursuing after me, there is no shred of carelessness in their movement .
–Only toward me however .
“Nuo!?”
An arrow that came flying out of nowhere hit Desiril . Of course, Alma shot it .
Desiril who was hit by the arrow immediately fixed his stance and pursued me–not .
With a perplexed look on his face, Desiril fell below at once .
“What’s wrong Desiril!”
“I have no idea! After a strange arrow hit me, my power is–uwa!”
A second arrow hit Desiril while he was trying too explain .
The magic circle I gave to Ruli contains an augment magic that causes a disturbance on a demon’s mana .
The potential damage isn’t too big, but it’s quite significant as an obstruction .
If Ashril wasn’t here, I probably could kill Desiril during the chance just now .
“Tch . . . . Dealing with both at once seems bad . Desiril, kill those womens!”
“Understood!”
Desiril flied toward Alma and Ruli .
“Looks like you’ve got a few strange tricks up your sleeve . . . . But now there will be no more hindrance . ”
It appears we’ve succeeded separating them apart .
Our opponent probably wanted the same too though .
