A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Natalia and Slaus face each other at a distance. Rather than words, the distance is so wide that it is difficult for ordinary people to even look at each other.

Despite that distance, Slaus was reading exactly what Natalia had said.

--Therefore, Slaus takes the lead by riding provocation.

"There's nothing to play with... Nice bark!

As the slaw takes its right hand, several flames will blow up as it rolls around the vortex. The flame was instantly transformed into a sphere, and Natalia and the others fired at each other.

It is dangerous to use flame magic “normally” in a place where there are many buildings in the town and there are residents who are controlled by Slaus himself. Incorrect control could lead to fire and major damage, and could also reduce Slaus' combat power if residents were involved.

However, the fireballs thrown by Slaus avoided the buildings lined up and pushed straight towards the Natalians without involving the residents.

If the fireball strikes directly, it will easily burn out each one. Even if you avoid it, you will not be injured if you are in the blast range of the fireball.

However, Natalia was not anxious to see many fireballs flying in. Instead, I thought I'd sucked the smoke tube into my mouth with a loose motion, so I lit it with a magical instrument and took a deep breath.

"Phew...."

Then exhale quietly and calmly in an unexpected battlefield. Regardless of the sight, Sarah raised her voice and patrolled to see if she should intercept the approaching fireball.

The smoke that Natalia exhaled changed shape to control Sarah's behavior. irregularly shaped to be pushed by the surrounding wind - a few moments later, the flying fireballs flew backwards away from the Natalians.

If you think the fireball has crossed the walls of the town of Lemona, it will explode in the air and make a roar. The shattered flames pulled their tails and scattered, but the shards of those flames were also washed away by the wind.

Looking at it, Slaus raised her eyebrows slightly and hit her next hand. I thought it had produced dozens of ice arrows instead of fireballs, and Natalia and the others started shooting together again.

Each ice arrow that flies in whirlwind is as thick as a human arm. The tip is sharp and will easily penetrate the human body if hit directly. Even if you were wearing metal armor, the impact of the impact would be enough to destroy the “inside.”

…………

Neddy came forward silently looking at the flying ice arrows. I decided that if it was ice magic, I should handle it myself.

"I don't need it, Neddy-sama... it won't hit me anyway"

But Natalia murmured as she tried to stop Neddy from exercising her magic. At the same time, when you exhale purple smoke again, the wind grabs you and the smoke flows.

"Well... I'm a little surprised, yeah, just a little"

Rebecca spins her words mixing amazing colors into the scene that follows.

Dozens of ice arrows suddenly changed course and crossed the walls like fireballs.

Natalia, who took it for granted, lifted the edge of her mouth and smiled glossly, not hitting all the ice arrows as she said.

"Fufu... what's wrong? If you don't aim harder, you won't hit me.

"... a small one."

Provocative words that cannot be heard. Reading it from the motion of his mouth, Slause stepped once again into the exercise of magic while deepening the gap between his eyebrows.

Emphasis is placed on quality rather than numbers, creating a giant fireball in the air with a diameter of more than 2 meters. If it hits, it will involve the surrounding area and blow up the building in a blast.

It's not as powerful as it would be against one person, and it's not as powerful as it would be against a group of Natalians with a “low degree". Its power is comparable to intermediate magic, and Sarah, the Spirit of Fire, cannot be expressed in one hand.

It was a slaw that produced such a powerful fireball, but in addition it produced several fireballs the size of a person's head.

And when compared to a small, huge fireball, a small herd of fireballs is fired simultaneously at a different timing, and a huge fireball is fired in a continuous manner.

A flock of rain showers and flying fireballs, and huge fireballs flying in pursuit of them. Natalia responded by exhaling purple smoke again before the magic of a scale that could burn out around the castle gate of the town of Lemona if she avoided it.

― ― All fireballs change course, including giant fireballs.

As before, all the incoming fireballs cross the walls and blow up and melt into space. The same was true of the giant fireball, which exploded with intense roar and shock compared to the other fireballs.

The impact is so great that with the blast, the skin trembles with tingling. However, Natalia simply held her hair down with her hands and never lost sight of her mouse for a moment.

Naturally, the magic of Slaus did not happen to deviate. It was Natalia's use of wind magic that prevented the damage.

"Well... the results are as you can see. I'll keep it down. Can you move as planned?

Natalia, who showed off all the magic of Slaus, uttered a word. The words were spoken to Rebecca and the Greeks, and Rebecca raised her shoulders small.

"You're better than I imagined. It doesn't seem to be compatible with me, and there is something about the prince... Shall we obey him? I will try not to kill the inhabitants as much as possible, yes, as much as possible."

Rebecca laughed bitterly and nodded that Chris and Tina agreed.

"There's something I think of as the same wind magic user... but I'll do it here."

"Tina has no objection."

The words of Rebecca and her friends, who are ruined as a force of war, are hard to say. Natalia called out to Zilba, who decided it was still enough.

"Gilba-san... asked for it."

"Leave it to me."

I don't need any more words against Zilba. Not a pure companion of the Spirit City of Laval, Natalia thought it was a very reliable force because of “the past.”

However, Rebecca smiles thinly as she makes a mess of Natalia's interactions with Gilba.

"Fufu... well, as for me, I'm worried that your" rabid dog "won't kill the residents too much?

Let me pull it out, 'Tintin Castle'

Considering the relationship between the killing and the seeping, we bump into each other with moderate words. When Natalia listened to it lightly, she turned to Reurus, who kept her consciousness behind her.

"I'll let you get on with it. All right?

"... okay."

Responding with few words, Reurus grasped the 'Dragon Slasher' he was carrying. Then he returned the peak in his sheath and squeezed it with both hands.

In this way, each one moves simultaneously without a signal. Reurus, Gilba, Rebecca, Chris, and Tina split up in five directions.

- I wanted to come!

Slaus discerns Natalia's thoughts when he sees the movements of the Reurus. Subsequently, the actions taken by Reurus and the others deepened Slaus' conviction.

The Reurus started attacking the inhabitants of the town that Slaus was moving to intercept.

In addition, the dwarves who were supposed to have brought the inhabitants out of town earlier collapsed from the castle gate. Then we turn to the support of the Reurus and “evacuate” the residents of the town, little by little.

Slaus stared at the dwarves aggressively and tried to unleash magic, but he remembered that he had now been diverted by Natalia and stopped moving.

Natalia suppresses Slaus, while Reurus and the others cripple the city's inhabitants. It was simple as a technique, but it was an effective hand if there were all the forces that could make it.

It is an aggressive technique that cannot be achieved without Natalia here, but Natalia believes that it is an effective hand to “scrape away" the immortality of the slaw that she heard from Reurus.

If Slaus gains magic from the inhabitants of the town of Lemona, reduce its number. It's a promise to Hector, but it can also lead to slashing slaughter.

Slaus patrolled slightly against Natalia, who had to sharpen her power from the front.

Even if we took the inhabitants of the town of Lemona hostage, it would make little sense. Even if I manipulated the inhabitants, pointing a weapon at their necks and shouting, "Stop resistance if their lives are spared."

If we stop with such threats, we won't attack from the beginning.

Of course, as a Natalia, I intend to minimize the damage - but if “it” increases the likelihood of putting their lives at risk and escaping the slaughter, I can cut them off relentlessly.

The promise to Hector is to minimize the damage as much as possible, not to save it without losing everything.

Even as a user of wind magic, it was also an important ability for the opponent (Slaus) to hit a bad hand.

(I see... that woman was more troublesome than I expected. But....)

Slause guessed what Natalia had done and raised herself from the roof of Hector's Mansion, which had stood until then.

There are no signs of enemies around, and there are soldiers who are constantly manipulating Eliza. Beyond that, there is no need to sit back and observe the status quo of unilaterally disabling residents (sesame seeds) at a distance.

The mouse floats in the sky and moves against gravity. Fly as fast as you can, and start packing your distance from the gates at once.

At the same time, Slaus turned his gaze towards one person. It is a realuse that swings "Dragon Slash" and strikes the hands and feet of residents to physically prevent them from moving.

Natalia is certainly a threat, but from Slause's point of view, it is inferior to Reurus. That's why Slaus first targeted Reurus, manipulating the residents while practicing his magic and exercising his powerful magic.

"No play, no games, no games, no games, no games, no games, no games.

I heard such a voice in the vicinity.

At the same time, the neck of the slaw is amputated without making a sound.

"Hmm!?

A moment of forgetfulness and astonishment.

Still, Slaus aggressively held his head in his hand and connected it to his neck, reflexively looking in the direction where he heard the voice, forcing the flying body to stop.

"It's like a monster who can't die with his neck cut off."

"You....."

There was Natalia floating in the sky just like Slaus. Natalia, who had a cane in her left hand and a smoke tube in her right hand, laughed small, holding her back.

"But if you run out of magic, you'll die. Or is he gonna die if he kills me?

Natalia smiled deeply as she slipped her neck around her right hand pipe.

"You haven't named me yet... Natalia-Barrow-Malerie-Amendura, the former captain of the Third Magic Corps of Mataroi. As a human being in this country, as a former captain of the National Army, and as a custodian of the neighboring territory, you will die."

That said, the battle between Natalia and Slaus began in the air.
