A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 58: Moonlit Night

The Reurus, which was meant to be dealt with in a single blow, and the Villa, which I thought could be avoided while numbing my body.

Reurus buried his powerful sword on the ground, and Villa broke her balance with her right arm slashed from the tip.

"Gu, tu... this is really tough. Hih... I'm in trouble, I'm in trouble"

However, despite losing her right arm, Villa immediately regained her posture and retracted. Elizabeth's lightning strikes must not have gone unnoticed, but she has made good strides.

If you're a normal person, it's no wonder you're shocked to death by the pain and shock of losing your right arm. Still benefiting from the Reinforcement, or just enduring it, Villa didn't smile while sweating cold.

(Avoided rather than removed...)

I couldn't put an end to the fact that my body couldn't move satisfactorily because of the lightning strike. In addition, Reurus clandestinely fights against the villa that keeps fighting even if he loses his right arm.

Reus pulled the great sword out of the ground and held it in doubt as to whether it should be pursued. However, it feels like the weight of the great sword held in both hands is gradually increasing, and it is only hurried inside.

(My magic is about to run out....)

"Calorific Release" is already at its limit. If you hold it with both hands, you will still be able to wave the great sword, but the movement will be much worse than before.

In addition, there is the sound of a person falling behind a revulsion. When I checked while changing my standing position without losing consciousness from the villa, Eliza, who cast a lightning spell, fell to the ground.

It must have been the effect of using magic and "chanting" to impose lightning magic. She bled from all over her body, and her consciousness was constant.

Eliza's wounds healed slowly, either because she consumed most of her magic. At the same time, the magic flowing from Eliza to Reurus was weakening at once.

When Villa gazed at Reurus and Eliza, she tied the wound to her right arm with only her dexterity mouth and left hand. Then she stopped bleeding forcefully and deepened her smile.

"Nah, hey, I didn't think it would hurt so much, no matter how much less than the sacrifice. But you seem to be at your limit, too. Let's get you out of here for today."

"... you think I'll let you escape?

"If you kill the fish around you rather than chase me, what if you catch them? It's time to get rid of the magic of lightning."

When asked to explore the surrounding signs, Eliza's lightning magic didn't kill her, or some of her magicians were alive.

Should Eliza be pleased that she didn't get her hands dirty, or lament that she had to let the villa in front of her?

There is no guarantee that we will take down the villa. The "Caloric Release" was about to expire, and I didn't know if I could defeat a villa on my left arm with little magic from Eliza.

Still, it would be dangerous to get rid of the villa. Regardless of the other fish, the instinct of Reurus complains that only the man in front of him should be killed.

"Oh... will you leave now? I can't help it...."

The villa murmured in trouble as she watched Reurus raise her heart to death with a great sword. Then he put his hand in his pocket and took out “something”.

It is a black sphere with a string popping out and the villa pulls the sphere with a bite of the string.

"Hey... no way!?

Its shape and motion stimulated the memory of Reurus' predecessors. Reurus wondered whether he should slash the villa or run away from it, but the villa was faster.

The villa slammed a black sphere on the ground, and black smoke spread around, along with a roar of gunpowder.

It wasn't like a grenade, it was a smokescreen. Seeing the black smoke spreading around in the darkness, Reurus smelled the smell - instantly turning his back and holding Eliza.

"Hih, that's a good decision... well, I hope we meet again."

In the appearance of Reurus holding Eliza at a distance, the villa turned her heel and retreated, laughing. Reurus, who saw the back of the rapidly disengaging villa, ran away with a bite of his teeth.

"That bastard... I don't care how much poison he spreads to escape!?

A smokescreen unfolded by the villa. It contained Rachel's poison, and Reurus felt tingling pain in his smelling nose and skin.

A Reurus that is resistant to poison will not die instantly. Eliza, who had a "contract" with Reurus, might not even die.

But Eliza is bleeding from a lightning magic suicide bombing that wounded her body. There was no guarantee that the poison would not die from the wound, and Reurus chose to withdraw immediately.

(Shit! At least other Gregorians...!?

The fog of poison is hard to see in the dark. Still, it was a Reurus that I wanted to take down only the non-Villa Gregorians, but I took a breath when I saw the Gregorians on the way out.

"Whoa... self-determination."

What was there was the corpse of a Gregorian dressed as a dagger poking his throat. As the villa retreated, he lost his life hoping to become a prisoner.

Reus, who saw the dead man, meditated for a few seconds and ran away holding Eliza in his arms. I don't know how far the fog of poison spreads, but if it gets out of the woods, it can damage the faces of Laval Waste City.

I didn't know what was going on with the other Gregorians, but I just wanted to avoid being harmed by my allies.

"Hih... ahh, the number has dropped considerably"

The poisonous smokescreen and the villa moved on to retreat suddenly muttered. There are a few Gregorians around, following the retreating villa through the woods.

Those who were wounded by Reurus and Eliza, or who were not on the path of retreat, made up their minds. Most of the people who were fighting in front of the abandoned city of Laval have also been killed and have not been able to retreat.

No matter how few allies you had, when did you get so worn out and retreat? While thinking about that in one corner of her brain, the majority of Villa's thoughts are directed to Reurus and Eliza.

"Priest. What was the result?

One of the Gregorians who followed the villa asked. The inquired villa laughed upliftingly.

"I still feel like I'm going to do it. But, Potential Ant... if you brush your arms harder, that monster will reach the advanced level. It's just a harvest."

The first half was cheerful and the second half murmured in a serious tone. Hearing the murmur, the surrounding Gregorians groaned with excitement.

As far as Villa can tell, Eliza is immature as a bloodsucker. The self-healing power was only moderate, but the wound increased faster with the suicide bombing by "chanting" than the wound healed. That would be too immature for a wizard.

But still...

"Whether the" contract "was made with a good opponent, whether the monster was the best as a blood sucker, or just by sucking one's blood, I got so much magic. Depending on how you grow up, you'll be in the top of the ranks."

Behind Villa's head is Eliza, who used her lightning magic in preparation for her suicide bombing. The magic of lightning, which could not have been used in the first place, was expressed only by the amount of magic and "chanting". How far can you “grow” if you are accustomed to handling magic and accumulate a lot of magic?

"Speaking of advanced superiors, it's comparable to a white dragon or a black dragon. At least the Class Dragon crosses....."

"Ah, I'm looking forward to it. It's up to the bishops to decide... I'll never wipe my ass like this again. The only way to get rid of an idiot is to get rid of him right away."

Until then, the villa was in a good mood, but the tone changed from throwing up to throwing up. Still feeling better, I distorted the details and laughed happily.

"Well, even such an idiot has become a bait to attract the rabies? It's important to use it effectively."

That was the only trouble we had when we infiltrated the abandoned city of Laval. Villa thanked her enemies for disposing of their incompetent allies - her feet stopped with a serious expression.

"Priest?

The neighboring Gregorians shouted suspiciously at the villa, which stopped suddenly. We are already nearly thirty minutes away from the forest where we fought the Reus, and there is no way that the Reuses will catch up with us now.

Major streets are moving around in the woods avoiding the possibility that Mataroi's regular army is patrolling even at night. Though surprised by the physical abilities of Reurus, Villa sees it as impossible to capture him once he loses it.

Even though it was possible to encounter monsters in the woods at night, the Gregorians are experts in monster extermination. Regardless of advanced monsters, it can be decorated with monsters of intermediate or lower grade.

Good evening.

That's why Villa's serious expression doesn't match all of them.

There was a woman standing in the way of the Villas as to when they had been there.

The figure stands gently in the woods in the moonlight that falls on the cut of the trees. The woman is wearing a black dress that doesn't suit monsters in the woods.

Sole with various decorations also looked like a dress at first glance, but there was no dust on clarity or elegance. The chest is wide open to accentuate the rich breast and has a slutty atmosphere.

The woman, Natalia, smiled glossly after lighting the pipe and sucking on it, spitting smoke in the lotus leaves.

"What a good night... Where are you going in such a hurry when you say the moon is such a beautiful night?

The colourful smile was even more puzzling. Many men will fall in love with that beauty, even if it is different from the place and time they met. However, it is too unnatural and unsuitable to encounter in the current situation.

"... who are you?

The relative voice of the villa was naturally strong. Even if you activate "Caloric Unleash," you can no longer afford to keep it in front of the raging Reurus, and watch Natalia's every move.

"Who is it? Oh, my God, you're being rude."

Vigilant of the villa, each of the other Gregorians pulled out of their own way. Natalia smiles as she gracefully inhales the smoke pipe, taking in the vigilant gaze of the villas.

"My name is Natalia, and I work at the Adventurers Association in the Waste City of Laval. Fufu," for a short time, "but please leave me alone."

Natalia thanked me for saying that, but there was no gap in the Villa's eyes. The sumptuous body looked like it would break if you hugged it, but I didn't feel like I could touch one finger in the first place.

Natalia looks around at the vigilant villas and giggles. It was like a girl laughing, but at the same time it was a way of laughing with the fear of being knifed on the neck.

"... what's wrong?

"Oh, I'm sorry. Your faces are as strong as when you met a monster. That's crazy....."

That makes Natalia laugh differently. Kerakera, Kerakera and the girl smiled gorgeously at the rolled chopsticks.

…………

"Well, it's a scary face. It's not like you're looking at a weak woman... but? I want to be angry with you, too.

Natalia smiled at the silently staring villa.

"My boy and daughter took care of me. You have to thank me for that... hey?

"That's a really tough thing to do... but I don't mind if you step down."

While I was talking to Natalia, I noticed that my mouth was dry. As a result, the villa tried to hold her shoulders high, but raised her eyebrows recalling that her right arm had been slashed.

--Apparently, he was stunned enough to forget the pain in his arm.

"I can't do that. Follow the Laval abandonment routine and let me thank you properly. In the meantime, may I make your actions“ wasteful "?"

"... what do you mean?

"Oh, don't you understand?

Fufu, Natalia laughs. Then, pointing at the forest with a smoke pipe, a big man approaches, scratching the darkness apart.

The villa knew the man well. Surprising voices are heard from the surrounding Gregorians.

A Gregorian who hunts high monsters and is called by his name with hatred and fear.

Raccoon, Spirit # 2, Imprisonment. Gilba stood with her hands dyed bright red.

"The diversion was all taken care of by him, and the“ eyes ”around the abandoned city of Laval were crushed by me... and then everything would be all right if you just disappeared. Do you understand?"

Natalia smiles mockingly when she sees the Gregorians distracted by Gilba.

"Let me repeat... all your actions were in vain. What you know will not be passed on to Gregorians, and you will die in vain here. Fufu, what a shame."

It was a ridiculous voice tone. The words changed Villa's complexion, aggressively spreading to order her to leave the scene.

--But it's too late.

I told you, didn't I? It was all for nothing. "

When I noticed, Natalia stood in front of me. It was a villa that tried to pull out its dagger in response, but its thoughts didn't follow.

"Ah, but...."

For some reason, Natalia's face was “upside down”. A ruthless glance ejects through the villa like a bore.

"The boy and the girl seem to be getting stronger, and on behalf of the abandoned city of Laval, I'd like to thank you for that. Thank you."

The view of the villa, which looked around with only its eyes, revealed the Gregorians who had been strangled “just like themselves”. He looked strange so that he couldn't understand what was happening to him.

Natalia sucks on the smoke pipe and spits out the smoke. Seeing the smoke swaying unnaturally, Villa realized that the wind magic had strangled her neck - where her consciousness was cut off.
