Chapter 138: CH 141

Chapter 141 – The Power of Teamwork

(TL: This part is written from Izu’s POV.)

I received a message via from Master. It seemed that they were able to safely secure His Highness Nike.

As expected of Master! I wasn’t worried at all!

All that remained was for everyone to meet up and leave immediately. But right at that moment, on our perch hovering high in the sky aboard the [Jet Book], we felt a powerful wave of hostile intent directed towards us

Next to me, Ior-dono was too focused on manipulating the plants to notice.

What about Sol—was what I thought, but she wasn’t there anymore.

I looked up and saw a blaze spreading above our heads. The flames were definitely caused by Sol. Then, a figure flashed and pierced through the fire.

“Woaaah, that’s hot!”

It was a garbel with large wings on its back.

“Is that a… bird garbel?” (Izu)

It appeared that my songs were ineffective against him. That meant he was a powerful combatant over B-Rank.

We were definitely the ones he was aiming for. It looked like he had wanted to launch a surprise attack on us, but with Sol’s strong powers of perception, she managed to detect him beforehand and drive him back. Even so, seeing as there was almost no damage, he might be a decent match for Sol in terms of strength.

Further below, near the tower where His Highness Nike had been held captive, Master and the others were confronting three garbels. As expected of those who had managed to take down the Empire. It seemed there was no way they would let us accomplish our goals that easily, would they?

And it was about time for Ior-dono…

“…S-Sorry… Izu… I might be… at my limit…” (Ior)

He had used his powers to the fullest extent to cover the range of the entire palace. Any normal person might not have been able to last for nearly a minute. But it was more than enough. As expected of a child chosen by a unique skill.

“You’ve done well. For now, get some rest.” (Izu)

“B-But… the enemies…” (Ior)

“Your efforts slowed the enemies’ movements down, and thanks to that, Master was able to move freely. You can leave the rest to us.” (Izu)

Ior sat down tiredly, sweat drenching his entire body.

It really was because of this child’s power that we were able to stop the enemies in their tracks. The enemy’s pursuit was slightly quicker than expected, but after we had secured His Highness Nike, our victory was practically set in stone.

“Well then, I suppose it’s time to draw the curtain. .” (Izu)

I began to sing, going all-out to deliver this song to our enemies.

—

(TL: Back to Bouchi/Torakado’s POV.)

Izu’s song changed. This was also a cue for us.

I glanced at Yofel, who was standing beside me, and she nodded in understanding.

Then, Yofel closed her eyes and spoke quietly.

“―.”

The moment she uttered those words, clones of me and all of our allies began to appear one after the other.

“Whoa?! What’s this, what’s thiiis?! (Tanbu)

The ape garbel shouted out in astonishment when he observed the clones that Yofel and Izu had worked together to create. Well, his reaction was to be expected. The clones were continuing to increase, surrounding him completely. By this point, there were already over a thousand.

This was the result of Yofel’s being brought to its maximum effect by Izu’s song.

Izu’s did damage to the minds of those who heard the song. In other words, it made them more susceptible to illusions. As a result, Yofel’s illusions would be made about a hundred times more effective.

Even if the opponent was S-Rank, it would be possible to trap them in an illusion if they combined their powers.

As arranged beforehand, we all began to move simultaneously with the clones. By moving about here and there, we could confuse our opponents.

Our objective wasn’t to fight, but to get Nike and make it out of there. We just had to buy time in order to do so.

The match was already set the moment we secured Nike, and Izu and Yofel were both safe.

“Tch, what are we gonna do about this, Boss Ouza?!” (Tanbu)

“Uwahh… I can’t tell which one is which anymore… Can I just go to sleep now?” (Urakio)

The sheep garbel seemed to be in the mood to give up already.

“Ugh… Just go one by one and defeat them all the same… is what I’d like to say, but we would get too split up. For now, go with the closest ones first and get rid of them!” (Ouza)

““Roger that!””

The three garbels began to attack the clones nearest to them. The ones that received attacks disappeared in puffs of smoke, but new bodies immediately appeared to replace them.

“There’ll be no end to this!” the monkey garbel cried out in exasperation.

“This song is quite interesting… Perhaps the song is the key here. Then we should take the enemy in the sky out first…Huh?” (Ouza)

The lion garbel, Ouza, looked up and his expression stiffened.

Unfortunately for him, there were countless clones of us floating in the air above him. There was no way to tell which one was the real one.

And then…

“Huh? The singing stopped?” (Tanbu)

As the monkey garbel said, Izu’s song had indeed stopped. However, the bodies were still existing and were continuing to move around.

The effect of Izu’s song would linger for a while. Once the mind was damaged, it wouldn’t recover so easily.

…That was why I said that we had already won.

Our real bodies were back in the tower where we were supposed to have already left. No one would expect us to come back here.

“Well done, Master.” (Izu)

“Yes, you and the others also did wonderfully, Izu.” (Torakado)

By now, we had already regrouped.

“Everyone’s here, right? No one’s missing?” (Torakado)

After I called out, everyone replied in turn. Then, I took a out of the and used it, allowing us to make a clean escape.
