Isekai Tensei no Boukensha
Chapter 19 - 20 Nightmare
Chris Side
"Chris! Don't do anything of your own!"
When I saw Temma-kun who was about to be taken away by the sky, I immediately tried to run the horse, but Mr. Jean grabbed my horse's leash and stopped it.
"Why are you stopping!" Temma is taking you! "
"So how are you going to help Temma by yourself!" Lady Merlin! "
"Um, um. I'll go ahead and somehow pull the temma out of that woman." Jean and the others need help! ”
Merlin always seemed to be jumping first, but Temma was probably shocked that you were in such a state, and the reaction was delayed. Well, I flew out to give Jean instructions right away... but because of the distance, I couldn't catch up with him right after I jumped out.
“There you are! Follow me!"
Hey!
Jang-san needs you to gather up your troops and chase after us!
He pointed at the riding knight in front of him and ordered him to follow Merlin immediately...... but Jean still didn't let go of his reins.
"I'm dealing with someone who defeats Temma!" Let's gather up our forces a little and go together! "
and Mr. Jean yells,
"I'm just letting Lord Merlin face such an opponent!" Even if we don't have an effective means of attacking him, we can still distract him by making a stir at his feet! Originally, we are here to support you and Merlin! What are you going to do if you're useless at a time like this? Besides, since there's another one like Rich, I definitely need Temma-kun more than I do! "
Yelling back, I forced the horse to run. There were only ten knights who could move quickly, but they seemed to be following me.
"Everyone, follow him while watching your surroundings!" If you can use magic, you don't have to reach it, just let it go! "
Temma, I don't think our magic will reach you because you and he are so high up in the sky, but if you pay a little attention to us, we might be able to help you. It might get in the way, but if it's possible, we should try it. Besides, even if Lord Merlin's magic were to be released like a rainstorm, he would not hesitate to go to Temma.
"Just a few moments before Lord Merlin arrives at Temma-kun's place... and we're still at his feet..."
I wanted to draw your attention to it for a moment, but it looked like the knights were shooting magic, but the distance seemed to make it completely ineffective.
"Master Chris! I'm going to use a little bigger magic!" Give me some time! ”
One of the knights who followed him shouted so he decided to let the knight who was near him support him. While he concentrates, Lord Merlin is close enough to reach Temma in a few seconds.
I'm coming!
When he said that, he threw the ball upwards with both hands, releasing magic. The magic was released at a considerable speed, but the angle was too high. When I thought this wouldn't reach the woman,
"Don't look up! Look away!"
When he heard the scream, he closed his eyes and turned downward, and immediately afterwards a dazzling light enveloped him.
"It's just light magic!" There is no danger, so keep going! ”
And he followed his word, and tried to move forward the horse, which had stopped, but the horse began to rage in amazement at the light. Even so, I managed to exclaim and run to close the distance with Temma-kun, but all the horses were surprised by that light, and half of the knights were swung off their horses. Half of the knights who were defeated were able to ride again immediately, but the horses fled farther away, so it was unlikely that they would follow any further.
“You guys go back right now! There are not many enemies left from here!"
Merlin had just caught up with the woman when she tried to run the horse by giving instructions to the knights who had fallen off the horse.
Lady Merlin tried to strike the woman's head with her beloved staff, but the woman grabbed the staff swung down with her open hand. And as it was, it was a comparison between Merlin-sama and the power of a woman.
"What a guy!" How dare you stop Merlin with one hand! "
However, at first glance, the power of the two seemed to be reversing, but since the altitude of the woman was slowly decreasing, Merlin seemed to have a slight advantage.
"I'll catch up with you soon!" Fly! "
It's a height we can't reach yet, but if Merlin keeps pushing her like this, our assault could bring us as close as we can get.
Master Chris! It looks like the zombies are gathering under that woman!
It's a distance I can't see yet, but it looks like a good knight, and at this rate we might get under the woman a little faster.
"Everyone, be careful!" It's very likely that the fight will start as soon as we get there! "
Even if we weren't too early, the enemy would be coming for her while she was attacking us. On the other hand, it will be difficult for our horses, which have been running so close to full speed, to escape.
If anyone's scared, come back now and join Captain Jean.
I asked, but no one came here and turned around. Well, if anyone really turns back, that knight is unlikely to make a comeback. It is lightened by the other knights who are taking part in this battle, in the double sense of painting the mud on the faces of the bosses sent out.
It's falling down a lot, but it's still tall... does anyone have a bow and arrow?
“I brought what I was given, but I'm not very good at it.”
When I asked if he had a bow and arrow because it was a weapon that was about to arrive, I received it because one of the knights had a set of bows and arrows supplied with a magic bag.
If only there were knights who were good at magic left, but the knight who was good at magic could not help but fall when he released the glowing magic.
"Sure enough, while shedding magic power on the bow, I used wind magic as an arrow....."
Until now, I've seen Temma and Merlin cast magic on their weapons to increase their performance and power, so I decided to try it out. If you fail to use your magic, you will be in danger, but this is the only way I can think of to attack her.
"Just in case, you guys take a little distance from me!"
Shouting so, the knights immediately moved a few meters away from me. If it's true, I don't know what kind of failure it will make, so I want you to stay farther away, but if you stay too far away, you won't be able to deal with when the enemy is lurking, so I decided that this is the limit.
"The first shot... noooo!"
The first shot went as far as strengthening the bow and using wind magic on the arrows. However, the moment the arrow left my finger, the magic that was on the arrow flashed, and the shock bled from my cheek. At that time, the arrow did not fly more than it normally did, and it only rose to a height of about ten meters.
"The second one... cuuuu!"
The second shot was released while paying attention to how to use the wind magic. Although it jumped incomparably with the first shot, it still seemed that the magic control was sweet, and countless scratches were found on the right hand the moment the arrow moved away from the finger. But it was a shame to pass through the woman's soothsay, and passed about twenty meters below her.
"Almost got it." Next time, it will arrive! "
Lady Merlin's altitude is falling, and we're getting close, so we should be able to get close to her next time. Besides, I know somehow, but I also know that it's like a trick, and I can see that I'm concentrating in a very good way. However, if there is a problem, I don't feel like it will work well when it comes to magic control... I know that even if I can't control it perfectly, I'll just have to endure the pain until I get injured enough to be unable to draw my bow.
"Phew... phew!... spare me!"
On the third shot, the arrow passed close to the woman. Instead, I had a scratch on my left hand this time, but it seemed to be getting used to the magic control little by little, and the scratch was small.
"Master Chris! The zombies seem to be behind us!" However, it seems that if we stay like this, we will pass under Lord Otori and collide without much time! "
Well then, I'll have to shoot her down first!
The fourth shot that followed was bigger than the third shot, but this was because the woman tried to impose my arrow with vigilance. Then Merlin could not have missed the gap and was pushed all at once. Finally, the woman's altitude dropped to about a dozen meters. It seems like it would arrive without an arrow.
"Shoot the magic because you can be less powerful!" There's no need to guess, just aim a few meters below that woman! "
Even if you're not good at magic when you get this close, you'll be much more likely to hit Merlin, so it should be easier to designate a place where you won't be hit. Besides, even if you hit our magic with dozens of shots in the first place, I don't think you can do much damage to her.
When I put an arrow in the bow while thinking like that,
"Ooohhhhhh!"
Temma-kun!
Lady Merlin pushed the woman further along with her tremendous temper, and the hand of the woman who was grabbing you by the temma was released.
Looking at the falling Temma-kun, I reflexively threw bows and arrows and ran the horse, but no matter how hard I tried to catch it, it was not in time. However, I will be the fastest to get to Temma-kun's place before Merlin-sama and hers.
"Please, don't just fall weirdly!"
Considering Temma-kun's ruggedness, I wouldn't be surprised if he fell from a height of about ten meters and was intact, but that's when he was firmly conscious.
I don't think that Temma-kun in that state has any consciousness, and if he falls from his head, it doesn't matter if he dies instantly. On the contrary, if you fall from the foot, most injuries will be healed by Temma-kun who regains consciousness.
I was aiming for the drop prediction point with the hope that I could stay with as few injuries as possible... but there was no sight of Temma-kun hitting the ground.
Chris, it's side.
Merlin side
Thanks to the support of Chris and the others, I was able to push the woman further... but as a result, an emergency situation occurred in which Temma fell.
At least it would have been nice if Chris had been underneath, but unluckily, Chris is still a few dozen meters away. Temma will fall defenseless!... when I thought about it, something unimaginable happened. Somehow the woman who had been held by me until now and hadn't been able to move, disappeared from before her eyes in an instant. No, I chased the temma so fast that I had the illusion of disappearing, and before I crashed into the ground, I pushed it through the air (...) and grabbed it (...).
If this was a few tens of meters high, I think I can do the same thing, but considering that it was suppressed at the start from a height of about ten meters, I don't think I can imitate it very much. I think it would be Temma, but it's a suspicious thing if Temma could do it.
"Kris, run!"
I was surprised by the woman's movements and stopped for a moment, but Chris was the most dangerous person in the situation. Chris threw out his weapon (bow and arrow) to secure Temma and focused on running the horse.
The mysterious woman who suddenly intercepted me in front of such an unprotected Chris...... and who was the one who attacked me until then should have noticed. In that case, it is easy to predict what a woman will do next.
Higiiiii!
Chris took a blow from the side of something like a black spear that a woman took out from somewhere, and he was flown a few meters from the horse and crashed into the ground.
The woman's spear (like a weapon) is like a black long thorn at first glance, and it doesn't look like it has a blade on its tip, but it can be seen that it is a very lethal weapon because it easily jumps off the neck of the horse that was in front of Chris at the time of the horizontal knife.
Chris!
Fortunately... I don't know if I can say that, but Chris didn't get slashed like a horse's neck because of the power he lost to the horse... but the impact of the spear was still quite a thing, and above all, it didn't move because it crashed into the ground.
The woman shook her spear at Chris like that,
I won't let you!
Before moving away from my hand, I aimed for the magic between the woman and Chris from the sky.
Perhaps because she was disarmed from the timing by magic, the woman was carrying a swung spear again, so she tried to pierce the gap and receive a blow from the wand from the sky.
"You coward!"
For she stood before me as if she were a shield. I quickly stopped my staff and forced my body to land away from the woman, but now it's harder to rescue Temma... no, there,
"Stop it! The lords must escape!"
The knights who had come with Chris to rescue Temma were all attacking the woman.
Since the woman was pointing her body towards me, I decided that now would be a good time... but that woman could not possibly use such constant (...) people's (...) work (...) hooks (...) surprise attacks, etc., and the knights who set it up quickly became prey to the woman's spear.
The Knights have been defeated, and all I have now is Chris behind me. But Chris isn't even sure he's still alive.
In this impossible situation, she grabbed Temma's chest.....
"Geez..."
I pressed it against my body and took it into my body. It looked as if Temma was being eaten from his head.
"Fufu... I finally got it..."
The woman muttered and flew away somewhere without even glancing at me and Chris as if they were no longer interested.
The scene just now was too shocking, and I could only vaguely see off the woman who was flying away.
Merlin, it's side.
