It took a few moments to come to grips with the fact that the white torrent had engulfed Amiri, and a few more moments to realize that it was an enemy attack.
A few more moments until you turn your body to the source of the attack, when your instincts tell you that it's an enemy attack and that it's faster to move your body before you understand.
"......... Kawasaki? Besides,
The wreckage of the shapeless monster, which Amiri had quickly deployed, scattered and raised a cloud of dust.
In such poor visibility, if you look closely at the source of the attack, you can see the shadows of two people.
What's beyond the wobbling smoke, you know what's beyond the wobbling dust, and you can see who they are by looking beyond the magic power to your eyes.
But that means they attacked Amiri.
I understood that fact, but the sight was unbelievable.
"Ishan
Standing there is Midori Kawasaki and Ishan .
They were supposed to be allies.
I understand the fact that those two just attacked Amiri, but my thoughts are not following.
So.
Why?
That's all I could think of.
I wondered if the betrayal of the event had dulled my thinking to this extent, while excuse-like reasons flashed through my mind.
I'm desperately thinking about the process of tying it to a reason that is not my intention, such as being threatened and forced.
There is no wonder that anything can happen in the Demon King's Army, but you are confronted with the challenge that it is up to the individual to accept whatever happens.
The question I skipped in order to solve that problem.
"I don't remember giving you permission to speak directly, human.
And the person who was asked the question replied coldly.
Ishan is frowning, as if to say that it would be of no use if the person he asked is a stranger.
As the dust settles, the lower part of his face becomes visible, and the object in his right hand points to the object.
And he looks at the object in his right hand, not the emotionless.
Eyes that look at things instead of at people.
Behind those eyes, you can see the color of a flame that can never be described as gentle.
"Whose permission I hear the voice came to me.
"Huh.
It didn't take me long to recognize a different person, despite the fact that the voice itself was the same.
A pressure that made me wonder if there was heat in the words, and a weight in the heat.
A pressure that you are not allowed to ask who you are.
Is it really a man? And there is no time for question marks.
There is only the warning sound in your brain that tells you that your life is at stake.
Your biological instincts tell you not to fight.
Answer me or die.
A being who comes to deal with me after only a few seconds have passed without being able to answer for too much.
If I do nothing, the only thing waiting for me is to die, a meaningless end.
No kidding, the being in front of me will do it.
But that doesn't mean that resisting also means death and running away also means death.
All sides, all options are the same.
But there is something you must do even if you know you will die fighting.
......... Mr. Muille, I'm sorry, but will you die with me?
The instructor told me to laugh in a pinch, and I've never been more grateful than I am now.
It might have been an awkward smile, but I knew what to do and forced myself to smile.
Forcing my cheeks up, the smile gives me a little breathing room and encourages me to do what I have to do next.
......... lived for hundreds of years. It's time to close up. I'd be glad to have the old man's help for posterity.
Stepping against the pressure, you resolve to let those who should be protected at your back escape.
You are relieved that you were able to make up your mind when the time came, and you thank Muille for standing beside you.
You're still foolish to be a part of the demon tribe. The result will be the same.
And the only regret I have is that I won't have time to watch my children grow up.
The enemy is already intent on killing us.
"True, troublesome creature .........?
Then I'll buy as much time as possible before Suela and the others are in danger.
So, I held up my mineral tree to attack first, but for a moment, it was as if my gaze was diverted from something other than Ishan.
You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
"......... grasp, it's a miscalculation that a brave man with this much erosion has infiltrated the company.
A quiet voice interrupted my feelings, telling me not to get caught up in such things, as I was pressured by the unearned power and prepared to die for it.
"Amiri-san,
This is not the place to lay down your life. Order Jiro and his team to leave the place immediately. The commercial area is still a possibility.
Turning her head in the direction of the voice, she pushed aside the debris with a rattle and a small body, and Amiri stood up.
The robe she was wearing was turned into rags and the armor she wore underneath it was missing.
The cord on his back is half ruined.
The fact that a single blow had caused so much damage means that the existence in front of you is still dangerous.
If this is the case, everyone here knows what will happen to Amiri-san.
"A survivor of the old species? I thought it was all gone.
Something that is not Ishan intervened, seeing Amiri's appearance and finding something interesting, and turned its gaze to you.
Action!
Amiri shouts for us to move, and we try to run, but we don't want to miss the opportunity.
Daughter, don't disappoint your father.
But it comes to naught.
Nicia!
"My father's life cannot be wrong!
Having escaped from Amiri's restraints, Nitsia flew from the sand and came around behind us with such speed that it could have been mistaken for a bullet.
Amiri called out the name of the being that stood in our way.
Bite me!
Can't afford to have a conversation and action is immediate.
Instead of a shapeless monster that has lost most of its shape, you attack with a shapeless monster that can still be converted into a fighting force.
I see, a golem that swims between dimensions, an ancient species. Are you still equipped with the technology that was lost?
But .
As if to declare the attack meaningless, the Ishan-like being slashed the sword in its right hand through space as if it was nothing.
The attack was done as if you could see something there.
......... continuous activation.
And that action was visible to the fact that the shark-shaped golem that appeared, cut off from the side.
A golem shaped like a shark that was cut off from the side and emerged.
An object that had never existed before now appeared.
Seeing this, Amiri's thoughts were quick.
Rather than despairing if they're too different, she's going to use all her strength to break the deadlock.
I will use all of my available forces to break the deadlock.
No, take action to defeat the opponent.
Extend all cords but the torn ones into space and deploy a summoning formation.
I will summon an army of golems of quality and quantity.
There is no need to defeat it! We're going to break through, too!
In response to this, you have left Himikku as an escort for Suela and the children to take on the powerful enemy in front of you.
You're caught in the middle of a strong enemy, and with Amiri's help unavailable, you'll have to make your own way through.
The initial feeling of overwhelm is now revealed thanks to watching your battle with Amiri.
If you endure the pain, or worse, sacrifice an arm, you can make a difference.
A time with no information and a time with information.
The worst thing that could happen to me is that we all die, including my child, and the best, of course, is that we all survive, but if one life for me is enough to save everyone else, I'll consider it.
"I'm going to take it into close combat! Mr. Muille, take cover! Memoria in my shadow!
"Mm!
I understand.
Your opponent is a more powerful being than Himik.
There is no other way but to give it everything you've got.
We're still ahead of you, but there's still room to maneuver.
Our opponents and I have different strengths in combat.
Wind that breathes in the forest, longtime friend, lend me your help. I summon the spirits, Sylphide!
This one is more numerous.
The attack must pass.
The wind spirit summoned by Muille.
A giant wolf-like spirit with four green eyes.
Run!
After issuing the order to Sylphide, you are additionally summoning.
I will not let you!
"Let me!
The distance between Nysia and me is about ten meters.
One second is enough, but she won't let me close the gap as I go to cut her off now.
I cut off the glowing magic with my mineral tree and try to move forward, but the front is still tough.
I'll be able to swing my body from side to side, zigzagging to avoid the magic, cutting it away and reducing the density of the magic attack as I close the distance.
Wow!
Muille's spirit, Sylphid, runs by my side.
It's the strength of its quadrupedal walker, or perhaps it's the strength of its body, or maybe it's the strength of its quadrupedal walker, that it makes an effort to approach in all directions, making use of the ground, walls, and ceiling, despite being even bigger than me.
However, the fact that the target is now dispersed into one person does not mean that it is easier to approach.
In fact, it can be seen trying to damage Nisia with its wind magic as it moves, but unfortunately, it seems to be ineffective.
I can't help but wish it wasn't indoors, or even in a larger field, but I'll assume it's the same on the other side.
Only ten meters away is a long way.
About ten steps.
A long corridor in a narrow space, the only way to get away is through this path.
The space behind you is no longer passable for the creature due to the attack between Amiri and the being using Ishan's body.
Jiro.
"Memoria?
In the midst of such an offensive and defense, Memoria, who lurks in the shadows and aims to take you by surprise, spoke to you by telekinesis.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. The fact that she is aware of us is also a disadvantage for her. Therefore, we need to leave as soon as possible.
I was going to reply that I knew that, but there was no way she was going to say anything else at this time.
So I kept quiet and urged her to move on.
So, you should consider that some damage is inevitable and act accordingly.
I've been thinking about it for a while now, and the thought that someone else should be sacrificed to get through this situation raises its ugly head.
Then I'll make the most of the opportunity, while everyone else does.
No, it's too risky. The least risky person in the room should take that role.
With every second, the time limit is running out.
We have to get through before Amiri falls.
So .........
With my options limited, I tried to bite into the words Memoria was giving me, but...
This is the best of the best as it stands.
The reasoning behind those words works, and even if your head agrees with them, your emotions disagree.
Jiro.
And I'm tired of myself not being able to get sick of it because I know what's on her mind after just one name call.
"Okay,
And finally, you will feel disgusted with yourself for swallowing the emotion.
I'm sure that if you let these emotions come out, Memoria will give you her usual quiet smile and tell you not to worry about it.
Even if you don't want to indulge in her favor, your body is firmly prepared to do so.
"Mr. Muille!
With copious amounts of magic and energy, Muille summons a second spirit behind him, suggesting that he will unleash a great technique, and he instantly realizes this.
Let me do it!
It is like an armadillo, but the scales on its back are as hard as steel, and its claws are sharp, giving it a heavy, rugged feeling of flesh.
An armadillo is said to mean a thing in small armor in Spanish, but in the meantime, this spirit is a heavy tank with thick armor.
Let's go! Adlod!
As soon as you think you've curled up in a circle, you start spinning at high speed and release the brakes, and it rolls toward Nisia at high speed, just like a car that has started to drive.
It doesn't matter what the magic is, the thick armor spins at high speed to play the magic itself, and the weight of the rushing weight.
You don't want me to lick it!
To prevent it, Nissier for the first time deployed a defensive magic, the white shield of the hexagonal pyramid, the tip of which was aimed at Adrod and showed a defensive posture.
Here I am! And there was no time to shout, "I'm sorry!
The connection to the mineral tree has been maintained, so the magic purity is sufficient.
Magic can be deployed immediately.
"Clothing!
The choice is lightning.
It's a bit unsuitable to be fired in this enclosed space, but it's the best magic to carry out memoria's mission.
A flash of blue lightning surrounds you, and that lightning is transferred to the mineral tree.
Muille's spirit Adlod, which continues to clash with defensive magic without losing its rotational power, knows that it can still increase its purity and increases its power even more.
A sound like a thunderbolt rang out, and then the discharge became even louder, shattering floors, walls, and ceilings throughout the area.
And then.
Memoria!
When you reach the highest point of both magic purity and power, you shout her name to tell her that you are ready.
As if to answer the cry.
As if to answer her cry... a black stick-like object jumps out from my shadow.
"I'm a merchant in the red, but in this case it's no use. But in this case, I'm giving you a great deal.
It is a stake sticking out in every direction.
A landscape created by merchant's taste for not knowing what's out there and being prepared is the foundation, according to Memoria.
And the stake is a guide for the attackers to come.
Rattling lightning!
The stake Memoria prepared contains her magic power, although it is originally a system that releases and cleaves the enemy in front.
That's where I'm going to release my magic power by using it as a reference.
The Jian-Gorai thunder shot from the wielded mineral tree.
What?
From the first bunch scattered in all directions as if fireworks bloomed.
It morphed into a wave-like attack from the front and surroundings.
Struck by the scene, Nisia's surprised face was visible through the thunder.
Deportation!
It's an attack that could hit Sylphid and Adlod if the lightning continues.
However, Muille's return of the spirit will limit the damage, resulting in the stake being melted as it thrusts forward.
It doesn't give Nisia time to intercept the violence of the lightning.
