Chapter 57
Chapter 57
Evin thrust out with the flamberge .
However, the distance between us was easily 10m . There was no way it would reach . In other words…
“Something is gonna come flying!?”
Bending my upper body, I avoided the liquid that was generated from the point of the sword .
*Splash* it collided against the wall that was behind me, at the place where it hit there was a hole .
It wasn’t an impact, it was a dissolution . That is to say, it melted .
The flamberge was good, the dagger was good, this attack was good, this fellow had many attacks that had 【Poison】 effects .
[You avoid well . It will be boring if it ended immediately . I went through so much trouble to prepare this body for battle . Let me enjoy it as much as possible . ]
Evin (demon) laughed happily . I see, from the very beginning Evin was being prepared as a pawn to be used when it came to a fight .
Even if it stole the body of the young lady, it doesn’t seem likely that it would be strong enough to compete with .
“Wait a minute!!”
Some of the adventurers who were in the plaza ran here .
“Move aside, greenhorn . It is too much for you!!”
While smirking, the bunch of adventurer uncles cut in between me and Evin . I have not seen their faces . /They’re dignity was not seen .
Perhaps, their ulterior motive was stealing my prey (Evin) .
No matter what becomes of these guys, it doesn’t matter to me . I took one step backwards and transferred Evin to them . More important than that was Latia .
When I looked at the cage that Latia was held in, Ayla and Zir were already saying something to Latia .
=========
Ayla’s POV
“Are you okay?”
When I talked to Latia in the cage, she seemed conscious and she returned a response .
“*Unh*, who, may you be?”
“I’m master’s, no, Hibiki-san’s companion . I came to help . ”
After hearing master’s name Latia-san felt relieved .
I wanted to move Latia-san out from the cage at once, but there was no key .
“The key, I dare say is in Evin’s possession . ”
“Then, as I thought should we have went to help master previously?”
“We shall beest a hindrance if ‘t be true we hath taken even one attack . Didst thee not see Frey’s duel?”
“Then, what should we do?”
If I don’t do something fast, master won’t be able to fight while worrying about Latia-san .
“Hmph, tis not without bethought . ”
Zir put Ruby in the cage . Ruby could freely go in and out through the gaps of the cage .
“Ruby, use [Storage] on yond wench . ” (Pengu: nice Zir)
“Wait a moment, Zir!?”
As Ruby was called by Zir, it began to wrap its body around Latia-san .
“Red slime-chan, it’s been two days~”
As Latia-san was swallowed by Ruby her consciousness grew a little faint apart from the smile on her face .
No way, to take advantage of the fact that master’s attention is turned towards the enemy to kill Latia-san!?
While I was thinking about such a thing, Ruby had swallowed Latia-san completely and returned to normal size .
“Good now, come forth from the cage just as thou art . Yond wench is weaken’d considerably so apply a potion . ”
Ruby shook itself as if in acknowledgment when told, it exited from the cage .
Coming out of the cage, it vomited Latia-san out after sometime .
“A-are you okay!?”
Though I unexpectedly used the same words I used in the beginning, my worry was on another level .
“Y-yes . Thank you very much . ”
Ruby probably gave her a potion while she was inside its body, she was obviously more energetic than a while ago but her hair was somewhat damp .
“Oh, it did turn out well . Still, [Storage] can eke take in living creatures . In yond case, it may beest comfortable if ‘t be true I catch but a wink in Ruby’s stomach at which hour we art camping out . ”
Zir,I will tell master about this later .
I hastily reported the completion of the rescue mission to master . Afterwards, I received from master a [Request] to guard Latia-san .
I shall protect her at all costs .
=========
Hibiki’s POV
Apparently, the rescue seems to have gone well .
Though I was startled when Ruby swallowed Latia, I see, [Storage] was effective on living beings, too .
I may be able to use this for something .
“GYAAAA!?”
The last adventurer who jumped in was slashed at by the Flamberge and collapsed .
[Boring . Every last one of them . ]
Quite so . To begin with Evin was Lv . 40 . When combining with the power of the demon, the average Lv . 20 uncles won’t be a match .
[Now, the opening act is over . Come at me any time now . ]
“That so . Shall I start?”
I held up my sword and gradually reduced the distance between us .
Though I understood by steadily watching the opening act’s fight, Evin (demon) seems to fight mainly with swordsmanship .
Of course, it hurled the dissolution liquid that I saw in the beginning here and there . It fought like a demon and moved revoltingly in a way that was originally impossible with human joints .
However, this guy still regards this fight as [Play] .
Surely, there must be a [True Form] . Well, it carelessly transformed into Evin the hentai, but I will attack it without mercy this time .
After carefully approaching to here I charged . It was difficult to continue the tension all the time even if I understood that he would come at some point .
But then, that’s the case if you are human .
[Hmph, crafty aren’t yah . ]
I was immediately repelled by the flamberge . It was superior in terms of power .
“W-woah . ”
I fixed my posture immediately and prepared for pursuit . However, Evin (demon) hadn’t moved from his position of some time ago by as much as one step .

[What’s the matter? Is this it?]
I wrapped the fellow in wind magic and instantly shot flame magic . This is the fastest Flame Tornado (Fire Storm) .
However, that guy swung with the flamberge and the flaming wind dispersed . Magic was probably coated onto the flamberge .
I wonder if he used the same magic as mine to cut the flow of magic that had manipulated the wind and flame and forcefully blow it away .
[Magic this time, huh? You are quite versatile . ]
The opponent was superior in swordsmanship, also my magic was nullified . What else can I do?
“Can I not defeat him? Then, can I not weaken him somehow to seal him?”
If it’s weakening, it does not mean there isn’t a way . There was the [Anti-Demon Killer] . However, perhaps like that time with Flora, it would not be effective unless you drank it .
Now, the demon (Evin) is in the body of a human, so…
“Then, a seal? However, is there not any way to weaken him?”
Then a certain image came to mind . In my world, there was a certain thing about a sealed [Demon Courtesan] in my country . (EN: I believe this is a reference to Tamamo-no-Mae)
Immediately, I contacted Zir . When we were splitting up into two groups, a whispering ghost was attached to me .
“Zir, can you hear me? Please prepare a stock of [Anti-Demon Killer] to use at anytime in a barrel or bucket . ”
<>
Because it will damage Ruby immediately if the stock of [Anti-Demon Killer] contents were to spill over, I don’t store any .
“The stock is distributed in the church . You can receive it if you say that there is a demon to defeat . Still if there are difficulties, you can use Giren’s name . ”
<>
“Ah, if possible can you choose people who are able to handle the [Anti-Demon Killer] safely . It’s probably impossible for Latia . Zir, will you be alright?”
<<Ah, tis well enow if ‘t be true I don’t drinketh large quantities of it . Tis harmless with just skin contact . >>
“Ok, please . Contact me when you are ready . Pay attention to not be detected by that guy . ”
<>
The arrangement with Zir was completed . First priority was to stall for time .
I maintained distance by shooting water magic in rapid succession, but they were knocked down by the flamberge .
[Hmph, Is this all you got?]
“Who knows?”
I acted composed as much as as possible .
[Not yet, there seems to be something more . Show it to me . ]
“I refuse!!”
I prepared to attack with water magic this time . A whip of water as long as a rope . I attacked from a distance with the whip that was more than 10m .
[It’s useless . ]
About 1m of the tip of the whip was severed . However, I don’t care . There was no substance from the beginning . It was only water shaped like a whip . It only served to disrupt the view even if it didn’t hit .
“Haa, Haa, Haa . ”
After 30 minutes of running around the plaza and keeping my distance, I was exhausted . Soon, I will reach my limit of physical strength .
[Geez, fine . I have had enough . I will kill you . ]
Evin (demon) was approaching this way .
As for me, I made an endeavor to move my heavy body, but somehow my body wasn’t listening to me . It’s no use, I have no choice but to use my trump card . When I thought so, the expected report at last came in .
<<Master, I kept you waiting~>>
“You really did . Zir, carry out the plan by my signal . I’ll make the sign now . ”
<>
From my breast pocket, I took out a health recovery potion and a magic recovery potion and drank them up . This was trump card #1 .
[What? You still had those kinds of things concealed? However, what’s going to happen if you recover your health and magic?]
“This will!!”
Presently, there was about 10m between that fellow and me .
I affixed wind magic onto myself to accelerate and charged ahead .
[I see, is wind magic your trump card? However, the speed is insufficient!!]
I know that . Therefore, this was trump card #2 .
[I will split you right in half, wh-what!? My legs can’t move!!]
Under that guy’s feet there was something resembling ice covering the ground .
As for this, the water that scattered the vicinity from the exchanged blows some time ago looks to be frozen with 【Mental Force Magic】 .
The power of Mental Force Magic allowed a thing to be moved or held in place .
With this magic, the water molecular movement can be stopped, so if it is possible to suppress it will it change into ice?
When using 【Mental Force Magic】 I tried to hold a mental image of the motion inside of the water stopping, after many experiments I succeeded .
However, I still have not yet acquired 【Ice magic】 so to make ice 【Mental Force Magic】 was necessary .
The blow to the body was guarded by the flamberge . However, it was fine . I assumed that this attack would be blocked .
While we were currently struggling for supremacy, I used earth magic to dig down by that guy’s feet . Our swords were locked together and gradually pushing against each other, currently I was on top and this guy was on the bottom . At last he lost to my power and gravity and tumbled down into the bottom of the hole .
[Fu-fucker!! What are you intending to do!?]
“I will do this!! Zir!!”
<>
Zir had already came to see that guy falling on the ground from the vicinity . Instantly, she began to pour a large amount of [Anti-Demon Killer] into the hole .
[*Gurgle*, fucker!! Like you can really defeat me by such a thing . ]
“I did not think it would . Ruby, please . ”
Ruby went up to the edge of the hole and a large amount of sand was vomited .
[Do you intend to bury me? Fool!! Using only earth to seal me, wh-what is this!?]
With 【Mental Force Magic】 I mixed well the soil that Ruby vomited out . It immediately became difficult to mix due to the viscosity, I fed air into it with 【Wind Magic】 to steadily hardened it further .
“Do you know of cement? Apparently the raw materials that make it are water, sand, and pottery power?”
[C-cement!? What is that!?]
“Quite recently, though an outdoor hot spring was made, I wanted to prevent the water from leaking so I tried various ways to make cement . I was also uneasy about the strength of the clay wall, so I did my best to make it just right . ”
Finally the cement was completely hardened and from it I heard a voice again .
[Bastard, then I will show you my true appearance, eh? Eh? Why!? Why can’t I return to my true form!?]
“The water that was poured a little while ago was [Anti-Demon Killer] . You are now soaking in [Anti-Demon Killer] . ”
Exactly, it was a Sessho-seki . It was similar to that one where poison was scattered . (EN: Or Killing Stone; it released a poisonous gas that killed everything around it and the corpse of a vanquished nine-tailed fox was inside it)
[Th-then inside this stone, will I gradually become weak and die?]
“Exactly . ”
[N-Noooooo wayyyyy!!]
It doesn’t matter how much you scream demon . For the time being, I made a small hole on part of the cement while waiting for it to weaken a little . If I poured more [Anti-Demon Killer] from here and it will likely die sooner or later . (TL: imagine pouring poison into a closed box from a small hole)
When I do check the status, I’ll know immediately whether it had died or not .
