A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 223: Doll Part 2

Revealing his murderous intentions, Reurus plunges into a straight line. It was Jilba, still silent, who jumped out to intercept such a revulsion.

Chi!

The sharp-tongued Reurus uses' Calorie Release 'immediately. I don't know what the circumstances are, but if Zilba is to fight them, we need to do everything in our power.

If you pull something out of your hand, you'll be killed with a single blow - Reurus knows that.

"Ooooooooooooo!"

If it comes true, I want to cut Rebecca in disregard of Zilba, but what if I show Zilba my back? The end is more obvious than seeing fire, and Reurus intercepts Gilba roaring.

The surroundings have shifted to riots by soldiers who think Rebecca is manipulating them, and anger and metal sounds are echoing. In that hustle and bustle, Reurus crosses swords and fists one-on-one with Gilba.

Reurus uses the physical abilities raised by "Caloric Release" and slashes small strikes to avoid creating gaps as much as possible instead of big swings.

No matter how sturdy Gilba is, physical toughness does not deviate from human norms - it should be. If advanced monsters such as "Castle Collapse" or "National Eater" are opposed, they should wave the Great Sword with an emphasis on power, but if the human Jilba is opposed, it is not necessary. With the "Dragon Slash" sharpness, it would be best to wave the sword with an emphasis on hitting.

Fragments are not taken into account for “trivialization” such as striking and edging. If Zilba's coming to kill us, Reurus will kill us too. Otherwise, it will not even be a match.

I also had the idea of having Neddy use ice magic to restrain him in one corner of his head. However, Zilba is also a user of Nullify. In the first place, it could be shattered with one fist, as if bound by ice.

Reurus steps in and slashes Jilba to keep her away. Jilba avoids slashing with a single sheet of paper from the "Dragon Slash" blade, Reurus' arm length, and stepping position.

One shot. Two strikes. Three shots. Five, ten, twenty and more slashes. Reurus gently swings the Dragon Slash by "Caloric Release", launching a five-time slash in seconds.

--But it doesn't hit me.

Reurus is more advantageous for the breadth of the interval, and the power of “weapons” is a special blow to each other. In that case, the first shot wins, but the Reurus is overwhelmingly inferior in technology and combat experience.

Gilba's eyes, like a robot with no emotions, don't move a single eyebrow through the tip of her nose. Even if you cut off your neck by just one centimetre by mistake, you won't let it touch you once you've finished cutting it off.

Even if the Reurus changes the spacing with the magic blade, Jilba takes evasive action considering even the “extended edge” whether it is sensed by the magic movement.

Zilba dodges a series of attacks like a storm. Rebecca looks at the two fights from behind and claps her hands as she dyes her cheeks.

"Wow, that's fast, that's powerful. There are times when Canna-chan just watched me. Higher among the priests, comparable to the bishop... yeah, that's amazing! Here, my prince. My neck is right here.

"G... gaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Bearing the roar of wanting to fly over Gilba in the future, Reurus focuses on fighting Gilba.

Very badly, even if Rebecca stared at the distance and let go of the magical blade, Gilba would have prevented it. Always block “rays” and show signs of attack if Reurus tries to concentrate his magic.

We're holding it down with a lot of effort and speed, but if something like Zilba gets in, the equilibrium will collapse.

"Fufufu... that's killing me. Ah... how pleasant... look at me more? Just look at me?

In addition to Zilba's defenses, Rebecca is in trouble. Opening your mouth will irritate the Reurus, but at the same time seduce the Reurus and sharpen its momentum.

Is there magical interference, “magic of that hand”, or some sort of "protection"? If you lose your mind, Rebecca's eyes will be fixed, and you'll be furious.

There's only one way to kill Rebecca. It is not the best hand, and there is a danger that every soldier and Gilba around will get involved, but if we don't choose the means, we can take Rebecca down.

It's about asking Sarah to shoot a magic match for an advanced one. If you use the magic of vaporizing most of the slime, which was nearly 100 meters old, with a single blow, you'll never be able to stop it, just like Zilba.

We could take Rebecca down, we could take the Winged Dragon down, we could involve the knights and soldiers around us in the aftermath and evaporate them, and we could blow them to the city of Accra.

However, Eliza's lightning magic isn't powerful enough, and Neddy doesn't know how much magic she can use.

While Reurus is holding back Gilba, he has a hand in sending Meer to Rebecca, the Bishop of Gregory. It is suspicious that Meer may be able to fight rather than kill them.

The surrounding turmoil has also taken a step backwards, with Collard and Diego taking command with a loud voice, but they won't be able to compete soon. There were about five soldiers on their way to Lewis and Sebastian, and they didn't seem to be moving right away.

When this happens, we need to move Eliza and the others into battle - but Rebecca still has some tokens left. Rebecca herself, too, has a winged dragon that looks like an advanced dragon.

Eliza and the others need to protect Esther and cannot move around. If Ruvillia and Anemone, who had evacuated earlier, had gone to call for reinforcements, the situation might have improved, but some time had passed since the Winged Dragon attacked.

Still, it would be a good idea to wait for reinforcements, as the nearby soldiers are not rushing. There is no sign of Laurent who came into contact with Reus the other day, and it is likely that he has been stopped even if there is reinforcement.

Rebecca controls the soldiers, but it is unclear if there is a limit to the number. In the worst case scenario, a new 'Otomodachi' may be created from the edge of the knockout.

Thinking. While dealing with Zilba, a variety of ideas come to mind when you circle around the corner of your head.

I managed to get past Jilba and hit Rebecca with a blow. If you're not going to die with your neck chopped, break it vertically. If you still don't die, I'll slash you as hard as I can.

Kill Rebecca with anger, with intent to kill, without complexion. Yes, Reurus consolidated his determination.

"--Calm down, Reuruu!

Eliza's voice echoed in reprimand. Although he was under pressure to kill Reurus, he returned to me and raised his voice to stop Reurus.

"Hmm!?

Reurus reacts to that voice. Thoughts stained with Rebecca's fury cool down to a fraction.

――――

And Gilba won't miss that gap. There was a disturbance in the swordsmanship, and he saw it and dived into Reurus' pocket.

Inorganic eyes catch Reurus. Zilba stitches the gap between the slightly broken serial strikes, and in one step he crushes the distance, turning his fist into the shape of the soles of his palms.

(Ma-zu!?

I've seen the movement with Reurus. It will kill you instantly with a direct hit, whether it's armor or the thick fur of a monster, and crush the “inside”.

It's too late to intercept, and defense won't make sense. Therefore, Reurus jumps backwards with all his might and tries to shred his might a little.

"Gu!?

I avoided a direct hit - but the bottom of Zilba's palm grabbed the leather armor. That alone will cause the rear rear bouncing momentum to blow away with a shock that will stir up the internal organs.

It was a horizontally blown revus, but Gilba appeared in his vision. I kicked the ground with my right foot, which I stepped in to push into the soles of my palms, and I slipped to chase Reurus.

However, Zilba stopped moving faster than he would have pursued Reurus. Reurus doubts that, but after a few moments, Zilba sprays purple electricity.

It seems that Eliza used lightning magic, but Zilba must have known as she fought Reurus. The fist struck the thunder, spreading the thunder with the roar.

"Are you stupid to hit lightning from the front and turn it off because you're using 'Nullify'?! Not even this one!

Following Eliza's lightning strike, Sarah fired a series of fireballs. It was unleashed irregularly to block Zilba's escape route, but Zilba smashed it all with her fists from the front.

"Zh... ghh, oh! * giggle *... leave me..."

While Eliza and Sarah magically stopped Jilba, Reus landed, but unexpectedly moaned with the pain coming from her gut. The pain of activating 'Caloric Release' may be quite painful.

--The pain cooled Reurus' thoughts all at once.

"... I almost died..."

Reurus murmured while suffering from internal pain. Eliza opened her mouth in a hurry.

"I'm sorry! But, uh... ahhhhh! I was afraid of Reurus! That's why I have to stop!

I wonder how impatient she was, Eliza. Reurus turned to Eliza and tried to say something. However, you remember the feeling of something coming up your throat, and you spit it out in a mess.

"Whoa! Ugh, heh... just plundering, this is it..."

"Oh, I'm sorry... but!

Reurus exhales blood that is rising because it hurts the internal organs, and Eliza sees it and tears in her eyes.

Of course, Eliza's voice caught my attention, but as a Reurus, I had to smile bitterly.

"Ahh... thank you for stopping me..."

The anger was too strong, but I was able to switch to force. Rebecca's anger is still smoking, but she calmly accepts that there is nothing she can do about it.

"Hey Reurus!? If you calm down, do something about Gilba! It won't stop at all!?

Sarah is the one who is gaining time for Reurus and Eliza to speak together. Gilba is shooting a fireball like a machine gun so he can't get anywhere near it.

It seems to be the result of prioritizing effort and speed over might, as in Reurus. However, Zilba has dispersed all of this in "Nullify."

"... Mr. Reurus"

I vomited blood, but I can still move. Esther called out to Reurus who wondered what to do.

The expression is more serious than ever, and Esther makes a hard voice as she looks at Zilba.

"Can you buy me some time... I'm ready too"

"... what are you doing?

In a sudden word from Esther, Reurus forgets the pain and asks. I couldn't predict what I was going to do in this situation.

Esther smiled in trouble at such a revulsion.

"--I would like to ask for the help of the Great Spirit"
