Episode Eight: The Avenger Stands His Claw

As a "hero Amatsu," it's only a matter of time before you fight the Demon King's Army.

I have been attacked and fell into a deep valley while I was on my way to the stronghold of the Sorcerers and Demon Kings of the Kingdom.

Witchcraft could not be used by the junction stretched by the Four Kings of Demon Army "Thousand Weirds", and I could only fall.

"Lord Amatsu!?

"Shit... as long as I can use magic."

The magicians and knights around me couldn't react to me falling, and I was standing on a bar.

Naturally.

Because they can't use any sorcery, just like me.

"Fuck, dude... duh."

I can't even use the magic of physical strengthening.

No matter how much power you receive from The Testimony of the Brave, you will not be helped if you fall from this height.

If you crash into the ground, you'll just crumble and die.

"How could... I'm like this..."

A dismal end.

My consciousness goes far into the fallout where my gut can be lifted.

In that, I heard Luisas.

"Hey!

If I looked up, Lewsas was right on top.

He jumped off a cliff and came after me.

Stupid bastard! Don't be a boss!! '

That's how Luisas screamed, grabbing his arm with rough hands.

Shortly afterwards, as Luisas waves his wand, a whirlwind surrounds our bodies.

The drop decelerated in an instant, and we safely fell to the ground.

"Hey, don't lose your mind, Amatsu."

"Bad, Luisas. Thank God. '

'... chip. I'd be in trouble if you died here.... in this place.'

I smile bitterly at Luisas for saying so to throw up and then move through the valley.

Quick, we have to rendezvous with the Lucifinas.

Lewsas magically burns down the masses of demons in the valley.

"Hey, Luisas. How do you use witchcraft within this conjuncture?

As he walked, he asked Luisas.

The same goes for the earlier falling wind sorcery, but Lewsas used the sorcery as he deserved in the junction.

No other sorcerer or knight could have used magic at all.

"... this valley is filled with a" thousand weirds "junction. I can't tell you how to lift the ties that have taken so long. So drill a hole in just a fraction of the junction '

With that said, Luisas put his nails up in a space of nothing as he stuck his arms out.

If you look closely, only the space that Lewsas touched was out of boundaries.

"If we create a space without boundaries like this, we can use magic for a moment."

…………

I imitate Luisas, but I couldn't break the line.

Look at that, Luisas pounds his tongue.

"... you can't even do this, don't name a brave man!

'... bad'

'Stop it now. The load is too heavy for you, the name of the brave man!

Yes, going through the valley, cursed many times by Lewsas.

It wasn't until a few hours later that I was able to get out.

At the end of the day, I couldn't make a hole in the end.

"... there's a dump."

This wasn't long before I became known as a hero.

I have a bad mouth, but I remember when you respected Luisas for saving my life.

Shake it off with a worm clutching around your arm and stand your nails in the space in front of you.

Inside the hole, five different junctions were unfolding simultaneously.

He wore a hole in all of its junctions and forcefully created a space without junctions.

"-" Whirlwind ""

In that gap, it forcefully activates sorcery.

A whirlwind blew through the hole, slowing me and Elfi down.

At the same time, blow the worms around you.

"That's ironic, Luisas"

Thanks to the magic you taught me, I can handle your trap.

"Elfi, hold those people as they are."

"Um, I was entrusted"

Give Elfi instructions and put a hole in the junction again.

In retrospect of Lewsas' character, he unleashed "Magic Taunt (Spell Divauer)" toward a place where he was likely to set a trap.

Left and right walls, and landing points.

He forcibly took the magic from the technique he had set up and stopped its function.

"... tight on boulders"

You Lewsass, I hear you put up quite a bit of a mindset to tie the line.

I just used light magic, but it took several times as much magic as I usually do.

There also seems to be a line of behavioral inhibition, and body movement is dull.

A few seconds later, we landed on the ground.

Make sure there's no sign of anything around you, and get the women down to the ground immediately.

"......"

…………

Those worms were planted in the bodies of the women dropped in the hole by Marx.

It would be one of those traps against us.

The women were already dying when they ate their bellies.

"... that's terrible"

Remove the accumulated potion from the pouch and sprinkle it on the abdomen.

At the same time, healing magic is used to block the wounds.

I'm not that good at healing magic, but I was right to learn it at least as a hero.

Now, it shouldn't mean you're going to die right now.

Take me to the hospital outside, it'll help.

"Io, it seems we're the only ones in this room. Apparently, there's no such thing as a magician."

Elfi, wary of his surroundings, said so in anticipation of the end of the allowance.

"... well. Because this time, he chose to see how things were going."

The most alarming opponent in the process of avenging Marx.

That's Lewsas, who brought the selectors.

I also talked to Elfi about it in the conversation before I came here.

"How do you think those magicians move?

Walking, Elphi's Question.

Put something in Marx and be wise and we observe it.

Or they'll use Marx to slap us directly.

"These are the two things that could be happening this time."

And here's what I said.

"Don't you have the option that he's not involved?

"That's unlikely."

Lewsas is a prudent character.

If you're not sure you can win, never try.

Both the attack with his companions at the Narita Labyrinth and the surprise attack at Spiritual Mountain will all behave because they had a chance.

"Seeing me use elephant magic in Spirit Mountain, he must have been pretty wary"

So he won't be attacking me directly until he finishes checking my battle power difference.

"You didn't get your hands on me when I was fighting in the orphanage because I was watching how you were doing"

Last time I checked things out, it seems like it's time to come directly to confirm our strength.

If there is a great tool there, Marx, there will be no hands not to use it.

"The problem is, look at that fight and see how he moves"

If he sees the orphanage fight and decides he can beat us, he'll set us up.

Throw Marx away and pawn him. But he'll try to stop this one's roots.

But if you weren't sure, he'd be using Marx to figure out where our limits are.

"Then you need to figure out how that magician moves before you lay your hands on that sidekick."

'Horizontal... Well, that's what happens. Quite a hassle, though. "

Then, assuming some traps that would have been set if Lewsas had intervened, he hit the fabric stone for post-processing before boarding into this mansion.

So when I sensed the magic of Lewsas, I had to be alert to the raid.

That turned out to be the back of it.

Apparently, this time Lewsas chose to see how things were going.

Otherwise, I'm not going to intervene in such a way as to alert this one on that occasion.

Probably sheltered Marx from my attack.

"... Well"

It was in the basement that we were dropped.

It must have penetrated Marx's private room and connected him to the basement beforehand.

In addition to the Disruptive Junction (Magic Disturber), the room is equipped with junctions such as Demonic Junction, Demon-Tied Junction, Behavior Inhibition, and Magic Consumption Multiplication.

How many demonic stones did you use to tie this line?

Definitely, it must have been Luisas who put this up.

"Elfi, is the magic okay?

The effects of other conjunctions are intrusive, but the most troublesome thing for Elfi would be "doubling magic consumption.

Simply use the Demon Eye, if you are a regular person, you will have enough magic to dry out.

You just keep your body a little longer, and you're consuming a lot of magic all the time.

"Still no problem. It's not a good idea to stay long."

My magic powers are also being sucked, but thanks to the magic grants (magic items) I am equipped with, I am able to halve the effect of the junction.

Thanks to the effects of the "Devil's Bracelet", "Jade Tail Knife" and "Red Lotus Armor".

But even with that effect, it would be more than enough to bear it.

The women won't last long either.

There's no point in staying on this spot, and let's start moving early.

"Bad. Can you carry those people?

"Heh heh, that would be tight on Iwo's skinny arm."

…………

Nodding, Elfi lifted the woman gently and held her by both sides.

Same arm strength.

With Elfi, he walked out toward the exit of the room.

"Mm."

"... you're out"

Cobblestones spread across the floor.

From that gap, red, elongated objects appeared one after the other.

Those were the worms that came out earlier, eating through the bellies of the women.

He moves his circular mouth into small pieces, crawling through the ground and approaching.

By then, it's an organism I've never seen before.

I've seen quite a few demons on my journey, but I've never come across a worm like this.

"What are these guys? Are you a demon?

"... that's crazy. I don't even know what kind."

"A new breed...?

"... no"

"Again," Elfi muttered when he activated his demonic eye only for a moment.

"I also feel demon-specific magic... these guys are close to homunculus, one way or the other"

"Homunculus......? These guys?

"And I know you don't want to hear too much about it... but this guy's magic, he's faint, but he's got a mix of Io's."

In that word, I saw the general circumstances.

My magic is mixed, creatures close to Homunculus.

"... it must be an experimental creature created by George and the others"

"That, let's call it an amatuzu bug"

"Just kidding."

The number of worms crawling out of the cobblestone has already exceeded one hundred.

"... troublesome, but wipe it out with flaming magic"

"Good. Leave it to me"

Elfi grinned furiously with a nigga,

"- Back off (...)"

Stared at the worms and intimidated them.

At the next moment, the worms escape into the cobblestone as the waves pull.

"From what I've seen, there's no intelligence in that one. It's a block of instinct."

"You instinctively made me feel at risk."

"Hmm. I'm glad Amatu worms don't have the air bones of Iwo Chi"

"Stop that name."

Proceed to the room and open the door that was in the back.

At that moment, something flew from the other side without sound.

"... more"

Immediately after dodging, the object that flew in with a gutter of noise is bombarded on the cobblestone behind it.

It sounded juicy and unpleasant, and part of the cobblestone melted.

It would be acid or something.

As I stepped inside, I knew immediately what had struck me.

In the middle of the room, there was a giant worm standing.

That's not the same worm that's ever been shaped like a snake.

From the round torso, eight necks were stretched.

Each neck twirls loosely and countless fangs open and close their peeping mouths.

"How unusual. I didn't know I could even make something like this in Homunculus."

"... Elfi, is there any other trap in this room?

As he let his eyes shine in the Red Lotus for only a moment, Elfi nodded cocklessly.

"That giant amatsu mmm...... I guess the giant worm is the fate. There's no other trick in this room than the junction."

"... well. Because if we take him down, we might stop the trap."

――――

I won't let you do that, but the worm brought the sickle.

When the three necks open their mouths wide, they release green liquid from its interior in momentum.

Is there a cobblestone melted attack?

Acid bullets aren't that fast.

With Elphi, avoid without difficulty.

――――

As the worm drags his torso cheat, he approaches it at a rate that is not commensurate with that giant.

It made several necks look like whips, and the worm came swinging down.

"... hoo!

I slashed my falling neck from the bottom of it.

Worm's body dances through the universe, making heavy noises and falling to the ground.

The severed neck crept around the ground with the bitches and quickly stopped moving.

"... Ha!

I didn't even care that my neck was dropped, and my neck attacked me one after the other.

Cut off one or two of the necks coming at you in a row.

――――

At the stage when the rest of my neck was five, I guess I realized I'd just be slashed in the neck as it was.

Once the worm tries to distance itself, it drags the torso and tries to retract.

"-" Devil's Eye/Ashes Explosion ""

But it's not Elfi who forgives it.

Until then, he unleashed his accumulated magic toward the worm.

Slightly reduced use of magic and an explosion of mood strikes the worm.

――――!!

For a moment, his remaining neck opened his mouth wide.

The explosion flames disappeared without a trace, wondering if the noise had sounded frivolous.

"That's the same device that absorbs the magic that was in the orphanage. They're based on my" spell divauer. "

"... you can't use the devil's eye"

Burri and Worm's torso trembled and the severed neck regenerated in an instant.

Apparently, he has a high playing ability.

Magic doesn't work.

Even if it deals damage with a physical attack, it plays immediately.

While we're doing this, our magic is consumed.

I don't have time to fight for long.

Some hands use [Hero Reproduction (The Raise)], but consuming magic is not foolish if used within this juncture.

Given that Marx refrains, it is not a good idea to wear it out here.

"Io, you could have used witchcraft in this junction, right?

"... oh. I can't use a lot of them."

"Then can we produce ice?

In that language, I understood Elfi's intentions.

"Hydra"?

"Uhm. The number of necks is different, but it's called that regenerative force, it's called the number of necks, it's very similar"

If it's similar, could the same approach work?

"All right. Elphi, keep the woman in your arms and stay back."

"Are you willing to fight alone?

Compared to the real Hydra, it's no big deal.

The worm begins to move.

All eight necks shoot acid bullets at the same time.

At the same time, he approached with fierce momentum as he dragged his torso.

――――

Thin to the worm while dodging acid bullets.

As soon as I allowed him to approach me, the worm moved three necks simultaneously and attacked me from multiple directions.

Repel the first attack.

He received a second attack and severed his third neck with a machete to return.

Green blood erupts.

"" Ice Blow (Freezing) ""

To the wound, I tapped into the magic.

Instantly every blood, the wound froze.

――――

The worm will wave his head down to block my escape.

But it's late.

He dives through the gap and drops his neck as he passes.

At the same time, I won't forget to tap into the icing.

"... still?"

The worm moves, but the neck never regenerates, as it did earlier.

Because the wound is frozen, even as it regenerates.

――!?

Worm doesn't seem to understand why the wound isn't healing.

"As long as we know what to do, the rest will be easy."

Did you instinctively understand your crisis?

I'm keeping my body tight so I can be vigilant.

Ignoring that, I slaughtered into a worm.

- Five left.

A worm that has lost all its neck and only its torso falls to the ground.

My torso is trembling in small pieces, but there are no signs of moving out.

We walked out of the room, avoiding the wreckage of the worm.

Through the door, the efficacy of the junction disappears forever.

After all, I guess the earlier room was destiny.

"... you've come to a close with a lot of thought."

When I saw the door that came in, the outside wall was stamped with amazing sorcery.

"Shall we destroy it just in case?

Shake your neck to the side of Elfi's words.

"You should stop. Lewsas wouldn't be surprised if he planted it to explode the moment it disarmed."

"... Mm. Oh, it's true." Explosion "is a mixed technique."

I knew it.

The mechanism by which the trap is activated at the moment of interference with the surgical ceremony.

Well, I guess it's meant to be a return of interest to the kingdom "during the ritual".

"I'm sorry, but you're the only one caught up in that, Luisas"

The junction leaves unattended and moves on.

Just in case, I walk wary of traps, but I don't have any tricks.

Looks like this place is just a passage.

Moving on for a while, halfway through the aisle, I discovered a room with a strict seal.

Stop your feet at the door that you let manage supinely.

When you disarm it by magic and peek inside, what was there was a drug shelf.

"Muggle, my nose smells like it's going to bend over"

Elfi is holding her nose and staring at her face.

"... sounds like the room where you keep your pills"

There are countless illegal drugs on the drug shelf.

I also found some drugs that I know of.

Some of them are "ghost claws" used for Bertoga in hot springs cities.

"... Hmm"

It's on the shelf, takes some medicine and closes it in the pouch.

"Hmm? You're gonna use it for something?

"Oh."

Laughing at Elfi as he grabbed the "Shizuku of God".

"I've come up with something nice."
