Almark put magic into Mars' wand, wielded out his heart and kicked the shadow, and ran straight to Leila.

Do you have any ideas?

"Yeah."

Leila nodded as she slowly retreated.

"I've narrowed it down to four possibilities. If you're absorbing other shadows, it's probably the third possibility."

Then point to the approaching shadows.

"Let's clean it up first."

Say that and blink at Almark.

"Use your good magic."

"Mine? Which one?"

"You can use as many magic as you want."

Yes, no.

"Let out the fog."

Almark's eyes shine in Leila's words.

"I'm good at that. Are you sure?"

"Yes, wrap them all in fog. I wonder if I can do it."

I can do it.

Almark sticks out his cane with a smile.

Pleased, magically packed more eyes into the wand than usual.

Here we go.

From its tip, a lot of mist erupted along with the sound of oops.

"Wow, I overdid it."

As Almark said, an incredible concentration of fog covered the entire passage and immediately blinded the two of them to the front.

Fine. Stay away. "

That's what Leila says and sticks out her wand.

"Ride my lightning magic into your fog."

"squared?"

Instead of answering, electric light ran from Leila's wand.

Electric light is intertwined with Almark's fog, covering the entire passage.

"Ooh."

Almark suddenly raised his voice and stopped.

"Almark"

Leila blames Almark for turning his back and waving his staff to defeat the shadow that appeared from his side.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

When the fog cleared, the usual shadows were wiped out.

"Yes, it's beautiful."

Only a huge shadow of magic is advancing there as if nothing had happened.

A new magic shadow was also about to be created from the cutting surface.

But it's coming out again.

There is a magic called cloud gathering. Magic in the second year of middle school. "

Leila threw her wand into a giant shadow.

"A technique that gathers together irregular things like smoke to make something else."

Almark sees Leila.

"Is that what this guy says? They're collecting shadows to make a big one."

"I think it's a close principle. What is important in that technique is the ring that binds them together. That's why I break that ring."

Leila's wand shined.

Light envelops the body of the Shadow.

"I'll expose the ring."

The light sweeps through the body of the Shadow.

As Leila said, something like a black string appeared on the body of the Shadow.

"No way."

Leila opened her eyes.

The black string was stretched vertically and horizontally around the body of the demon shadow as if it were a spider web.

No, not a string. This is...

"Snake"

Almark murmured.

What I saw in the string was a snake.

Black snakes are intricately intertwined on the surface and inside the body of the Shadow.

"I've never seen such a complicated ring. It's going to be like before, no matter where you cut it."

Some of the snakes in the Shadow were very broken.

The part that was cut by the magic of Leila's light.

The demon shadows that came loose from it are falling to zero.

But even if I cut some, I can't defeat this demon shadow. All we have to do is tangle new shadows one after another.

Suddenly the light of the wand diminishes.

"Ku"

Leila groaned.

"Not Enough Magic"

Don't push it, Leila.

Almark called out.

"You should cut that snake."

"Yes, but there's no point in cutting everything clean. It's too complicated."

Leila bit her lips.

"I'm sorry. I can't handle it."

"Okay. I'll chop it up."

"What are you talking about? Were you listening to me?

When Leila was surprised to say so, Almark ran towards the Shadow.

"You can be weak. Leave that light alone."

She shouted at Leila behind her back.

"What are you going to do!?"

Leila screams.

It's an image.

Almark grips Mars' wand again.

Because this is a stick, I imagined a weapon like a mace to beat down.

That's why it didn't work for him.

Slash it.

Almark thought.

I have slashed many things so far. [M]

If you want to slash it, you're good at it.

This is a sword, not a cane.

Almark overlays the image of his used partner's dagger on Mars' wand.

It was a dagger I was using like an extension of my own hand. The image was clear and concrete.

Along with that, I shoved my magic into my wand.

Dad, it looks like he can be slashed with a sword.

Look at the shadow and relax your mouth.

Then it seems okay to get involved.

An enormous hand of Shadow approaches Almark.

Almark didn't slow down and stepped right in front of him.

Almark's body flies through the sky and jumps lightly over his hands.

We landed right in front of the Shadow.

This is a sword.

Strengthen the image again.

In Almark's eyes, the intricately entangled black snake also looked like a simple puzzle.

There, there, there.

After a glance, Almark jumps again.

You can cut it three times.

Almark's swinging wand sparkled like a blade for a moment.

"What is that wand?"

Leila muttered unexpectedly.

"Wand or sword?

A knife.

Almark's slaughter severs the black snake of the Shadow.

There was definitely a feeling that the string was broken.

Another sword.

A slashing attack at an unstoppable speed cuts off the black snake even further.

For the first time, the Shadow was distorted in agony.

Last time.

At that moment, the black snake disappears from Almark's sight.

"I'm sorry."

Leila's voice.

It must have been the limit of magic. The light was disappearing from the cane.

No, no, no.

Almark kicked the wall and jumped high.

Thank you, Leila. I already know where the snake is.

Almark shook Mars' wand all at once from the top of the stairs.

Sure response.

I knew it would suit me better.

The Shadow's body collapsed in front of Almark.
