Chapter 466: Talks with Forrund

Chapter 458: Talks with Forrund

『I have to end this fight somehow, before Ashwrath gets out of control……』

Actually, I was thinking that if we escaped outside of the royal capital, maybe there would be no damage…… After seeing the battle between the Transcenders, my wishful thinking was blown away.

There was no way we could let it run amok. The damage wouldn't be limited to just the royal capital if Ashwrath went out of control.

『Should i support Ashwrath…』

However, as I found out when I watched the two of them fight, both of her defenses and life force were too massive for a few attacks to take kill it.

Even if I managed to create an opening, I wasn't sure if that would be enough to help Ashwrath defeat Velmeria.

『When it comes to that――I have to aim for the Fanatics huh…』

The broken magic sword that Velmeria is holding. That is definitely the main body of the Fanatics. The moment I saw it, I immediately knew.

It's a divine sword. There's no need to appraise it. Is the announcer-san inside me secretly whispering to me?

The Fanatics were bizarre even from a distance, and its presence was no less than Gaia's in its liberated state.

『If I could just do something about it……』

As I was thinking about that, I noticed something. The Fanatics were getting shorter. In the short time since I started observing the fierce battle between the two, the blade of the Fanatics had shortened.

If I take a close look, I can see its blade crumbling away as if it were weathering. It must be a reaction to the divine sword release. Because I'm often affected by skills with strong repercussions, I could be sure of that.

Do I have to do something? If the collapse continues at that rate, it won't be long before it destroys itself. But before that happens, there is a possibility that Ashwrath will start to run amok too……No, it's too dangerous to bet on wishful thinking.

『I guess I'll have to take the risk and intervene huh』

If I hadn't seen Gaia before, all I would have been able to do was shudder at the thought of a battle between two divine swords. The idea of a battle between two superior divine swords gives me such awe.

『But, still――』

I have to do something.

『However, what should I do?』

I can't break into that fight without a plan.

As long as I can only expect to damage it with a full-blown blow, I will have to prepare a blow at the perfect time.

I can't use potential release. Because I can't stand it now.

I can use telekinetic catapult after teleporting? No, Its wont work. Against a strong opponent, there is a high possibility that it can detect my teleport. In fact, some of the rank A opponents I've fought in the past have avoided it. I should assume that Velmeria will naturally react as well.

This is where the bad side of not having Fran came in. I would teleport, Fran would aim, and the two of us would attack. We were able to minimize the gap because we were able to divide our roles in this way.

『Then, do i have to use telekinesis to catch the opponent?』

If I can use telekinesis to block your opponent's movement, even for a moment, I may be able to hit them. At the same time, if I use the telekinesis with a guider, the possibility of missing an attack will be even lower. However, that would make it impossible for me to use telekinetic catapult.

『No, if only I could use magic together…Hmm?』

As i was worried, I felt the presence of a person somewhat far away. he seemed to be using his stealth skills, but his stealth must have wavered for a moment as he tried to dodge the huge debris that had fallen nearby. In terms of location, he was in the shadows of the rubble, about 20 meters away from me.

The owner of the presence was Forrund. I didn't think he'd be this close. He seemed to have immediately normalized his stealth skills, when I caught his presence.

Still, I'm pretty sure that Forrund had almost no stealth skills when I appraised him before……His current stealth skill is quite good. It's not inferior to its higher ranks.

But I soon found out why. It was the sword that Forrund currently held in his right hand. It was probably a magic sword that Forrund had created with his extra skill, the love of the Sword God. It seems to have the ability to grant the wearer a stealth skill. In addition, the magic sword in his left hand has the same type of stealth ability.

When i think about it, that was amazing. It would be possible to handle any situation by creating a magic sword with the most appropriate ability for the situation. Moreover, Forrund can create more than 100 swords at the same time, right? That would be like suddenly having 100 more skills.

It's quite bad if he was our enemy. Well, I suppose it's the same for me and Fran's skill sharing.

Should I fight with Forrund here? But as long as I’m not using the doppelganger, it will reveal my true identity.

Forrund huh……I don't mind revealing my true identity to this man. I've met him many times before, and I've never had a bad impression of him. He's usually very intimidating because he's often involved in combat, and he sometimes can be scary. However, he never once had any negative feelings towards Fran or me.

That's probably why Fran has a strange fondness for Forrund. Although they hadn't talked that much, it was clear that Fran liked Forrund.

No, this is an emergency. There was no time for hesitation. If fighting together would increase our chances of survival, then we should have fought together.

『Forrund…Can you hear me?』

(Hmm? What's this voice? Who are you?)

『Aah, I’m not an enemy. I'm the master of the Black Lightning Princess. I'm talking to you with telepathy』

(Is that so, then I'll believe you. I don't sense any malice in your words)

Somehow, he believed me so easily. No, I don't have time for useless thoughts right now, so I'll just be thankful.

『I have one favor to ask』

(What is it? Ask me anything)

『Velmeria-do you have a back-up plan that could take down the dragon girl?』

This made me think that if Forrund had a powerful special move, I could just cooperate――.

(No, I don't have the offensive power to finish that thing off. It's beyond the human realm)

『I see』

(How about you?)

『There is, but……Hey, that sword-shooting skill. What's the point of that thing if it's not your equipment or a sword under your control?』

(No, that's not the case. It's an ability originally created by my skills to control swords, but the effect is to manipulate swords within a certain range)

So, it's like a sword-only telekinesis. If so, maybe we can cooperate.

With Forrund's firing ability, I would be able to direct all of my telekinesis to restraint Velmeria.

Anyway, wasn't Forrund more of a quiet guy? I thought he was a man who always said only a few words. However, when I used telepathy, he talked normally. Maybe he's just not very talkative in general, but he's thinking a lot in his head. I felt a little closer to him when I thought about that.

『I need Forrund's help. Can you lend me your strength?』

(Yea, fine with me. What should I do?)

That's a quick decision. I can count on him.

『Let's meet up first. I'll go over there. Don't be surprised, okay?』

(?)
