Chapter 280: CH 280

Labyrinth of Heresy 10


Lunging with the Ice Bringer, I stabbed 5 in a single strike.

Dobaan!!

The grotesque, near 3-meter tall figures scattered like clumps of meat.

Then, sensing an uncomfortable presence behind my back, I started running towards it so I wouldn’t lose it.

It was no longer human.

A giant lump crawled on the ground.
Yes, it was something that turned into a clump.
Silver metal was exposed in places and it had parts that were not so different from a monster’s.

『Eat!』

It uttered no other words after that.
It was no doubt a chimera.
But it wasn’t as simple as a lion’s head, sheep’s head, and a snake’s tail. It was like a cluster of random things jumbled together.
Something there creeped its way towards Akane.

「Wha!? What is that!?」
『AkanEEe! LEt mE EaT yoU!』


「N-no way…… is that Akira…………?」
『A-aKanE! cOmE LEt mE Eat y0U!』

Akane’s body stiffened at the true identity of that repulsive monster.

「You okay, Akane!?」
「Takumi!」

When I rushed in, I threw a Fire Lance spell at that monster.

「Huh!?」

The moment I thought that the flaming lance pierced the monster’s body, the spell disappeared as though it was consumed.

「Kukuku, isn’t my work magnificent? It isn’t simply a chimera. It is a gluttonous chimera that eats both organic and inorganic matter. That also includes magic. Kuku, can you defeat our greatest masterpiece?」

The Lich Homer’s words surprised me.

「Wasn’t it you all that summoned the heroes!?」
「Yes, of course, that is the hero. Even so, we had to maximize his usefulness.」
「You!」
『LeT mE EaT yoU! AkAnEEee!』

Gakiii!

Using the Ice Bringer, I parried the monster arm that extended and swung down towards Akane.

「Get a grip, Akane!」
「Ah! S-sorry.」
「Kukuku, You are from the same place. You being taken in and getting along would be great.」
『eAt aKaNEee!』

Arms and tentacles began to grow haphazardly from the monster’s body.

「This monster!」

The Beastkin warriors began attacking the monster. It absorbed the spears that impaled its body as though eating them.

「Don’t get close to this monster!」

I sent the warriors flying to prevent them from being consumed by the monster.

「Takumi, put an end to Akira. Set him free from the monster.」
「Yeah, leave this to me.」

Akane nodded, then she glared at Homer and began launching the Light attribute Holy Lance fiercely.

「Tch, this lass! It would be beneficial if you became the nourishment of the hero!」

The effect of the Light attribute on Homer who became the Lich was outstanding. Homer created a magic barrier while firing a magic counterattack.

「Leave the defense to Laeva!」

Laeva, who ran to Akane’s side, suppressed the magic attack from Homer using a magic barrier.

「Laeva, let’s defeat that Lich with the two of us!」
「Understood!」

Laeva was in charge of defense, and Akane increased her Light magic attacks on Homer.

「Guua!」

Suddenly, Homer’s arm holding the staff danced in the air.
Lulu, who erased her presence like a shadow and was waiting for an opportunity, struck at the chance when Homer’s attention was solely on Akane and Laeva, dealing damage using a dagger.

「Lulu! Get back!」
「Yes nya!」

Homer, in his anger at having his arm severed, created a large opening.

「Atone for your sins in hell!」

The lance made of light that Akane fired had pierced Homer’s body. Furthermore, Laeva who was defending with a shield also joined in attacking, and Homer’s body was pierced by lances of light like a porcupine.

「Guoooooo!! Youuuu!」

Homer who turned into a Lich screamed with a voice filled with resentment as he turned into a bead of light and broke down.

 

Gan! Gin! Kin!

「Shit! This girl! Don’t think you’ll win with just a sword!」
「I am much older than you though?」

The former Holy Knight Order Leader Packard could not curb his impatience as he swung his sword at Sophia.

「(Why? Did I, who had been blessed with strength from the Goddess, not reach new heights!?)」

Certainly, in terms of strength alone, his strength was likely much higher. However, that was all it was. Led around by the nose through speed, and with his lack of skill, the tables were turned with him caught in a dilemma.

Zaku!

「Eh? H-how could this be……」

Packard was overcome with surprise upon seeing a sword embedded into his chest.

「Aiming for the peak of the sword through wielding uncontrollable strength and a body unable to feel pain, how laughable.」
「A, guh……」

Sophia withdrew her sword and went to support her comrades.
Afterwards, the shell of a man who once wore a once-silver armor and served as the leader of the Sydnia’s Holy Knight Order tasked to protect the Pope had crumbled.
