A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 227: Deacon and 'Punishment'
The garden, which was well maintained by the gardener, turned into a shadowless state.
Soldiers manipulated by Rebecca collide with knights and soldiers under Lewis's command, and flowers and plants are trampled and ravaged with rage.
The knights led by Louis form a line to capture exactly one and one of their compatriots and enemies.
But it's hard to stun an armored soldier. As a result, they were assembled on the ground and pushed to the ground, but the power difference did not fluctuate greatly in a situation where one soldier was needed to suppress one enemy.
As a result, the situation is close to deterioration.
The soldiers manipulated by Rebecca can't perform their usual skill, or they can hold them down without leaving the dead. Some of them, whether they were crushed to the ground or not, were violent without looking at themselves, but the soldiers of the Viscount Werg, who were also good at interpersonal combat, responded to all of them.
…………
Sebastian was silently confronted with a magical doll imitating Gilba as his swords, spears and armor clashed with each other.
The opening time is about two meters. Half open to each other like a mirror, drop your hips, hold your right fist close to your hips, and stick out your open left hand. Then feint each other with a little behavior on the eyes, shoulders, and toes, but neither Sebastian nor the magic doll moves.
Sebastian turns his back on his subordinate, Lewis, and says he won't let the magic doll pass. The opposing magic doll was staring at Sebastian's movements as to what he was thinking or not thinking.
Away from Louis and Sebastian, Reurus fought with Rebecca and Eliza and Winged Dragons. Occasionally, Sebastian, who is far away with a beast-like roar, feels so killer that he never looks at you.
--There were no shards to lose sight of.
No matter how much inferior it is to the person who imitates the other person, there is no way to be alarmed or to make extra observations. Though the opponent was a magical doll, the battle against the Reurus made me fully understand the dangers.
That's how I interact with the magic doll for a while. The dragon's magic swells up and a huge flame is thrown, and Sarah intercepts it with flame magic to respond to it.
The Wing Dragon, too, but Sarah, who shot the flame magic instantly, would be quite skilled. They shoot at each other's intermediate flame magic, collide, and the aftermath reaches Sebastian.
Coming heat waves and scattering fragments of fire. Like a petal dancing through the sky, a thousand pieces of fire were blown by the wind, blocking Sebastian and the magic doll's gaze - stepping in at the same time.
Shh!
Sebastian's fist, with his sharp exhalation, collided with the magic doll's fist. The fists that were released using the "reinforcement" of each other were equal to the murder weapon at the earliest, playing a dull double bass that did not seem to have hit the human body.
The speed at which they stepped in and the power of the fists they fired were mutually reinforcing. However, Sebastian, who felt the “shock” transmitted to his arm through his fist, immediately weakened his right arm and pulled only one step away from the shock that seemed to pull the muscle.
My fists must have hit each other, but if I hadn't escaped the shock, my right arm would have been useless in a single blow. Still, the skill of instantly weakening and pulling one step to escape the shock would be remarkable.
――――
After one step, the magic doll comes forward. Quietly and completely concealing his lethality, he stepped in without knocking his fist in.
A direct hit would be literally a special hit. The scary thing is that it's not magic, but pure technology.
Therefore, Sebastian fights all the attacks of the magic doll. Parry, play, divert, and cross each other without getting hit.
The fist rolled out deflects the trajectory by tapping on the wrist. The moment I thought I was off track, I twisted my elbow and avoided being pushed further into my abdomen. Avoid kicks like whips that are shaken to follow the avoided body by jumping backwards.
The magic doll's movements have no “seams”, and even though a single hit has a special power, all movements are connected and fired in series.
If they were in line, they would die with a single blow, and if they were soldiers of the House of Värg, with a single blow, how low would they be in the ranks of knights? Sebastian, who had already beaten the blow dozens of times, whether wearing armor or destroying the flesh over the armor, laughed bitterly at the feeling of his left arm, which was beginning to numb with the blow.
"No, no... it's terrifying to say that I'm just imitating him now."
But there is room for words that are zero from the mouth. Despite the desperate situation of hitting him, there was even a smile in his mouth.
The movement of the magic doll is amazing even from Sebastian's point of view. Esther's - this is astonishing, but if you believe Esther's words with Comona's help, it's only about 60% of Zilba's own power.
Sebastian thought, "I see, Sebastian."
Say to the Spirits: 'Punishment'.
Say to the Gregorians: "Rabies."
It also promotes the second place for spirituals, but it is a skill enough to be brave in southern Mataroi.
Running around southern Mataroi as a Spirit, sometimes capturing bandits, sometimes killing monsters who harm people, and sometimes clashing with Gregorians. Its lightness and fierceness are not only transmitted to spirituals, but also to folk herbs, and beyond soldiers and knights, to lords everywhere.
A tour of Mataroi or the entire continent of Caldeba will not lead to the discovery of more skilled people than Zilba. In a strike battle, you might get three fingers instead of five.
Even if you had a weapon, how many of you would be able to resist Zilba with bare hands? Sebastian was amazed and respected for his skill, which even knights would easily do in an interpersonal match.
However, there is no trace of emotion for the magic doll in front of you.
"--Just imitating."
Follow the movements of the magic doll that you learned by continuing to fight, and Sebastian comes forward, who was on the defense side until then. Instead of just pointing your fists, guide them to disintegrate.
Just a little, but definitely. The magic doll's posture collapses each time it strikes.
Even if the magic doll jumps backwards to redo the partition, Sebastian comes forward like he was reading the movement. Without giving her time to regain her posture, if the magic doll tries to defend herself thoroughly, she will even use it to pick the bud of a counterattack.
This would not have been the case if it had been Jilba himself who was fighting. Sebastian doesn't have the confidence to lower Jilba's fist by dozens - but if the magic doll is against him, it's a different story.
I don't know if Rebecca is manipulating it or if the magic doll is moving at her own will, but I can handle Sebastian well. I thoroughly checked the defense, but the magic doll's skill fell within the range of expectations.
Perhaps it would have been dangerous if we had fought with complete first sight, but the fact that Reus had fought earlier led to Sebastian's margins.
This would not have been the case if it had been a situation of turmoil rather than one-on-one. Alternatively, if Rebecca's consciousness was not suitable for Reurus alone, there might have been a different conclusion.
Sebastian thinks it would have been pushed out if it hadn't been for Reurus.
Still, it didn't turn out that way.
Every time I kick my fist, the bottom of my palm, the magic doll steps into the dead. The gradually disturbing posture is entering the earliest irreversible area.
The remaining three hands - the left fist of the magic doll goes inside your body.
The remaining two hands - the left elbow that was released while twisting the body was pulled to avoid the neck.
One remaining hand - the base of the right palm, which is released by following the left elbow, is shifted upwards.
The magic doll's body floated slightly. The momentum pushed the magic doll's feet off the ground by shifting the bottom of his right palm upwards, which was released to shake off Sebastian.
At that moment, Sebastian stepped in. The finger of the right hand is stretched out to take the shape of a penetrating hand.
Sebastian's attack could not be avoided, and even with his body floating, the magic doll tried to deviate from his upper body. At the same time, Sebastian pulled back his empty left arm and took a defensive posture--Sebastian threw his hand at him after seeing the movement.
The magic doll penetrates the heart that it was trying to protect through the gap in its left arm that it was trying to defend. With the strength of Sebastian's own skill, raised by "Reinforcement", it becomes a prick that is no less than the spear of fame, and passes through the left chest of the magical doll.
"I wonder if it's my head or my heart... but it looks like it was a hit."
As Sebastian murmured, the magic doll stopped moving. Your body weakens and collapses from your knees, as if your previous ferocity were a lie.
Whether it was different from Rebecca's magic doll, which had moved even when she slipped her neck, or whether Sebastian's blow was fatal, the magic doll silenced without a drop of blood.
Until then, the body of the magical doll that imitated Gilba began to shrink as soon as she saw it, and within a few seconds it turned into about 30 centimeters in size.
The last one left was a doll that I thought was hand-stitched. I don't know the material from Sebastian's eyes, but there is a hole in my chest.
I definitely took down the magic doll. Before that fact, Sebastian exhales and wipes away the sweat that was floating on his forehead.
"No... I don't want to get old."
Though I sent down the magic doll, the color of fatigue seeped into the voice tone. There will be unreasonable situations, such as when a single hit kills you. With that in mind, it can only be said that the physical and mental exhaustion was enough.
Sebastian, the last fortress to protect his master, defines himself as a butler, but despite Lewis's orders, the situation is strategically close to defeat.
Lewis is safe, but he should reflect on being pushed into a situation where he has to move himself. Or should we praise Rebecca, who crosses the House of Värg and Reurus “alone”?
But still.
"If I have a chance, I'd like to make a deal with him, even if he's not my enemy."
Murmuring somewhere, Sebastian dropped his gaze on his right hand.
On the right hand, which pierced the chest of the magic doll, the "nucleus" of the slime was held in half.
