A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 339: Mock Warfare Part 7

The sound of metal hitting each other is mixed with the sound of flames and lightning popping each other.

Reurus pulled Sarah's power through the "contract" and wrapped the flame in the "Dragon Slash", and Bernard wrapped the spear in lightning.

There is little difference between weapons and magic. They shake each other's objects, bump into each other, and scatter flames and lightning whilst sounding a metal sound that can also be called a roar.

"SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Hmm!

When Reurus shook the Dragon Slash with a roar, Bernard shook his spear with a sharp exhalation.

The "Dragon Slasher", a large sword that is nearly two meters long if included in the pattern, and Bernard's spear, which is nearly three meters long.

Given the structure, the spacing is also close to each other. When the big red sword that has slashed down many monsters so far roars up, it collides with an arc of copper brown spears to respond.

"Hahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Like laughing, Reurus waves his great sword faster and louder, like a voice of joy. Simulated battles also disappear from your head, slashing one after the other toward the impending spear while releasing purple electricity.

Shake it down, wipe it out, poke it up, cut it up. The Reus swings the Dragon Slash on the most powerful trajectory, in the easiest shape to swing according to the posture of the time.

If someone as powerful as Bernard were to fight, it would be a bad idea. It means that the slashing of Reurus, who lacks skill, becomes more monotonous - twisting down "such common sense” with speed and strength.

With tornado roughness, he shakes the blade while sharing his energy and strength. If soldiers and monsters get closer, it's going to cut them apart.

Bernard, as opposed to Reurus, waves his spear roughly to match the way Reurus fights. It weighs more power than technology and hits each other with a spear that cannot be beaten by the slash launched by Reurus.

(Ah... goddamn it...)

After seeing Bernard "hanging out” with his way of fighting, Reurus said nothing that he could not be moved or grateful for.

With the help of Sarah, you can use "Caloric Release.”

Even if we fought the "Head Hunting" on this spot, we wouldn't be as hunted down as we were last time. You must be able to cut the castle in a few minutes, even if you fight the "Castle Collapse". The slime called the "Country Eater" will be quite severe, but the body rarely moves as much as it should.

Still, I can't reach Bernard in front of me. I dared to switch to a way of fighting similar to Reurus, but it is still easy to go up.

Regardless of what he thought, Bernard was choosing a way to fight according to Reurus, while still showcasing a crushing battle on top of it.

At first glance, the status quo is close to each other, but in fact, Reus is steadily pushing towards defeat.

It means that the time limit of magic expiration is approaching, so if you keep fighting like this, nature will settle.

Bernard has plenty of room compared to Reurus, who uses magic as a fuel to carry out his all-out time-limited activities.

And Reurus has no way to overturn the status quo. Even if we could pull Eliza's power, we wouldn't see a future that would beat Bernard.

The earliest defeat is decisive. Even so, Reurus continues to wave Dragon Slash because the current situation is fun and helpless.

Every time I shake the Dragon Slash, every time I bump into Bernard's spear, it feels like my strength is gradually being raised. Instead of technology, something in the realm is changing in the dimension of “battle”.

Sometimes a broken spear scratched everywhere, but I didn't even care. The instinct shouted that the sword should be swinging before the pain, and the body responded by swinging "Dragon Slash".

Bernard didn't use the “miniature craftsmanship" that he had just done. He stopped and fought.

Reurus is waving his sword in tornado roughness for one reason, but he must be careful not to let the aftermath of the battle reach his surroundings.

If you don't, you won't be able to really fight, but you're going to kill Reurus, and Bernard, who's going to fight a mock fight.

The difference between the two is noticeable, and it is strongly felt by the Reurus, which actually intersects the blades.

No matter what you do, it doesn't work. I can feel my growth, but it still hasn't arrived.

The Reurus could have been unpredictable when Bernard was hitting all kinds of hands, but it was also difficult in a glued situation.

--Therefore, defeat was inevitable.

The magic was depleted too, but the focus of the Reurus, which was pulling power from Sarah, ran out. Were you tired from slashing hundreds, or were you simply unable to stay focused?

The movement is dull, and the flame that was wrapped in the Dragon Slash disappears. Until then, even though they had been meeting each other, the big sword was played, and Reurus' posture collapsed greatly.

Bernard is not so sweet as to miss the gap thus created. Your body doesn't follow your suddenly changing consciousness, even if you're aiming for a match.

(Ah... shit...)

It must have been obvious that it wasn't an invitation to lose your posture. An instantaneous stone thrust of the spear back into the body of the Reurus.

(--Lost, or not)

Remembering the feeling of the body blowing up at the same time as the shock, Reurus felt the sadness that the battle would end rather than the regret of defeat.

"That's it!

Natalia declares the end after seeing Reurus fall.

Bernard, who stabbed Reurus with a stone jab, has a remnant in his heart and doesn't seem to be chasing him.

And the blown Reurus woke his upper body without complaining at the end of the simulation. If it had been poked at the tip rather than the stone, your torso would have cried apart. It was an unspeakable defeat.

"Phew... I'm here"

While solving the "Caloric Release", Reurus acknowledges the loss as the courtesy of the loser.

There was still magic left, and I could have fought with all my might in a minute or two. Still, I can only admit defeat after losing my focus. Once the magic is completely cut off, you can't let them know that you're going to lose your power at once.

Bernard, who held his spear, finally lowered his spear after hearing Natalia's proclamation and Reurus's words. Then he turned to Reurus, sitting on the ground, and raised his left hand.

"It's good, it's good prospects... but it's still good."

"It's an honor to give you a compliment."

That said, Reurus received Bernard's kindness and stood up with his hand in his hand.

"How was Reurus?

Natalia approached Bernard as Reus put the Dragon Slash in his sheath to show that he was unwilling to engage.

I'm hiding my expression, but it's Reurus who feels somehow happy and proud.

"I'd rather have my squad. But that doesn't make any sense, does it?

"Yes, I don't want you to take the revus with you."

"I guess. So you're like," As planned. ”

That's what Bernard said, but he shook his neck.

"No... wouldn't it be a problem if I put a little weight on it?

"So, can I change some of the rumors?

Listen to Bernard's words and Natalia returns them. Reurus, who couldn't understand what they were talking about, accidentally leaned his neck.

"I have some disturbing signs, but could you at least talk to me in my absence?

It is troublesome to be put up in a place that you can't hear, but it is troublesome to be told directly beside what you are concerned about. It was a realuse that I thought was going on, but Natalia nodded back without asking deeply because she was silent.

Reurus first distracted himself from the conversation between Natalia and Bernard and walked towards Eliza and the others. And I told him with a strangely clear face, without seepage of remorse.

"Sorry, I couldn't win."

I didn't think I could win, but I still couldn't. We did everything we could here, but Bernard couldn't pull it all out.

Eliza and Meer smiled back at Reurus, who spinned the words with such thoughts.

"No... that can't be helped."

"Reurus, you were amazing, but this time you had a bad opponent... there are so many strong men in the army..."

Both Eliza and Meer saw Bernard's strength. I didn't think it would be such a revulsion.

"By the way, Sarah, is there anything strange about your body?

Reurus asks Sarah worriedly. Eliza and Sarah both fell down during the "Head Hunt", so I was worried that there would be no negative impact.

"Hmm... I see... a little bit?

But Sarah is strangely leaning her neck. Did Reurus also not fight to the “limit” because it worked, or did it change something the second time?

I don't know why, but if it doesn't have a big impact on Sarah, it should be relieved.

…………

Neddy stared silently at the relief realuse, but when he noticed it, Neddy quickly turned away. Sarah pulled the clothes of a Reus that opened her eyes to something.

"By the way, is that the carriage? Every time Reurus got hurt, he was rattling.

"Huh? Carriage?

That said, Reurus looked in the direction Sarah indicated. I didn't notice because I was focused on fighting Bernard, but Sarah said there was a wagon that made a strange noise.

The carriage that Reurus stopped before he turned his gaze was a medium carriage that could accommodate about four people. Nothing indicative of identity, such as family crests or crests, was engraved, and the emperor was also wearing a coat and hiding his face.

Although there is a window on the side of the carriage, something like a curtain hangs out so that it cannot be seen from the outside. Probably “patience” or ruining your time. Reus thought it might be a character that likes to see humans fight.

(Don't you feel the magic...? Someone who simply didn't have enough blood on board....)

Bernard has minor injuries, but Reurus is bleeding from all over his body. It is only natural to be surprised at those who have no connection to the affair.

As Reus talks to Elizabeth and the others, Natalia breaks up with Bernard.

"Good day, Reurus. I ate that Bernard well."

"Please don't flatter me. If they were serious, they'd have fought sooner."

When Reurus returned Natalia's words with a bitter smile, Natalia looked terrible. But there is nothing to say, and he turns his gaze toward the Marquis de Grimer.

"... it looks like they're satisfied."

Beyond Natalia's gaze, she saw Marquis Grimer riding in a carriage with a faint smile. Reurus caught his eyebrows unexpectedly.

"After all, you don't even talk here."

You don't have to talk about it.

That said, Natalia turned to the carriage they rode on.

"Reurus, what's the cure?

"I wonder if you're in such a good mood, because it's not that bad... it'll heal if you sleep overnight."

"Yes... then we'll move too."

Natalia urges her to ride a carriage with such words.

"Where are you going? I think Reurus is hungry because he just fought?

When Sarah asked strangely, Natalia laughed small.

We're just going to move on to the Marquis de Grimer's mansion.
