Chapter 647

Translated by Tods

We’re in deep trouble.

Right now, we are about to be entangled and swallowed by the tentacles of the Great Magic Beast.

Urushi’s barrier was still protecting us, but it would reach its limit in less than ten seconds. I could feel the magic of the barrier fading rapidly.

But that didn’t mean we couldn’t escape. We could use teleport to get out of here.

The only problem was that it would exhaust my magic power for real. After that, we would be completely dependent on Urushi.

『Urushi, can you do something for me?』

(Woof!)

Urushi nodded energetically at my words. I guess he knew what he had to do.

『Alright, let’s do――No, wait!』

I just noticed that the magic around me had become strange. A strange magic power had suddenly covered our surroundings. It didn’t seem to be coming from Zelyse, Nameless, or even the Great Magic Beast.

There was no sign of hostility, rather, it was giving off a sense of security, as if it were trying to protect us.

And then the wall of tentacles that had been swallowing us began to come off as if it were going to vanish.

With a dull sound as if something was hitting us at high speed, our field of vision became clear.

『What in the world has happened…?』

「Get out of here, quickly」

『Rhyn?』

Out of nowhere, I heard Rhyn’s voice. It wasn’t a voice that was sent directly into our minds like telepathy, but it was as if Rhyn had whispered directly into our ears.

But when I looked around, Rhyn was nowhere to be found.

『I could feel her presence, though…』

I could feel Rhyn’s presence, albeit faintly. I guess it was thanks to my Spirit Detection skill.

「In a few minutes, Weena Rhyn will release her attack」

『She’s going to use her trump card, huh?』

「I’m not sure if I can help you guys anymore… But, do your best to get away from here…」

Rhyn muttered bitterly as her voice began to become inaudible. The subtle hints that I had sensed from the surrounding area also seemed to have gone away.

But now was not the time to worry about Rhyn.

『Urushi! Let’s go!』

「Woof!」

Judging from the hint of impatience in Rhyn’s voice, it seemed that we didn’t have much time anymore.

「Kukakaka! I don’t know what you’ve done to get out of there, but I won’t let you get away from here!」

Nameless, who was supposed to be entangled in the tentacles with us, had already escaped from the restraint and was waiting for Urushi.

Well, it was not going to let itself get caught up with its comrades’ technique after all!

「Rhaaa!」

「Grrrr…」

Whenever Nameless thrust its left and right fists in succession, a shockwave was generated and struck Urushi. In addition, the shockwaves were released over a wide area, making it impossible for Urushi to escape.

There was almost no gap left for us to escape.

Besides, the apparent escape route was clearly a trap. Zelyse must be waiting for us at the end of it.

I guess they intended to drive Urushi into it and kill us, like a trap for hunting animals.

However, Urushi immediately saw through their aim.

「Woooof!」

「What! You’re trying to get away from there!?」

Urushi dared to rush into the thickest part of the barrage of the undead’s attack and forced his way through using his dark magic and barriers to block out the shockwave.

He broke through the shockwave released by the Fist Saint Technique head-on. But he was not unscathed.

Urushi’s whole body was covered in wounds and blood was gushing out of his body.

I guess the parts of the barrier used to protect himself were not strong enough because he made the parts to protect Fran and me on his back thicker.

However, Urushi didn’t seem to care about the damage he had suffered and continued to push forward.

「I’m not letting you go I said!」

Zelyse, who had teleported in front of us, unleashed his attack. His tone was as easy-going as ever, but the technique he unleashed was nothing short of fierce.

It must be a technique that he had originally prepared to kill us in their trap. The amount of magic power contained in it was enough to make me shudder.

The power of each shot probably surpassed that of the Fist Saint technique that Nameless had just unleashed.

This was bad.

After all, his attack had a Space-Time Attribute in it. There was no way to escape even with Dimension Shift. And since it covered a wide area, it would be difficult to avoid.

I guess we would just have to withstand it by putting a barrier at full power. But just as I was thinking about it, I saw Zelyse had started to concentrate his magic power to release a second wave.

Don’t tell me he could fire consecutive shots? No, it seemed it was only possible if Zelyse and the magic sword Zelyse took turns firing! This was exactly what made an Intelligence Weapon so annoying!

But that didn’t stop Urushi.

『Urushi! What are you…!?』

「Wrrrooof!」

While keeping a keen eye on the wall of magic bullets, he collided with it head-on.

Clank clank clank!

With a high-pitched sound as if metal was crushing against metal, Urushi’s barrier that was covering our surroundings was bombarded with magic bullets. I could feel his barrier becoming weaker with each impact.

But that was not the only problem.

「Urushi!」

『Put up a barrier for yourself!』

「Woof!」

Urushi had put up only minimal barriers for himself. He seemed to be deploying barriers concentrating on the front to protect his head…

He did not receive any direct hits. However, the bullets that snatched the flank of his body scraped off Urushi’s flesh, and a large amount of blood spurted out from the wound.

Still, that didn’t stop Urushi from pushing forward.

He escaped the barrage with a large amount of red blood spraying from his body.

「Unbelievable!」

Zelyse seemed to be really surprised by this. His eyes were wide open as he shouted so.
