Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Two Hundred and Seventeen: Their Fate (V)

Signs of Neewe kept moving through the woods.

It's much slower compared to the first time we were moving within sensing range at a tremendous rate. This would catch up quickly, but Setuna could not have forbidden vigilance. Slowed speed means you want Setuna to catch up. I mean, we're trying to lure you to the point where we strained the trap, as we did earlier, and that's why we're deliberately slowing down the speed of travel and waiting for Setuna to chase us.

Judging so, Setuna approached his signs by making a great detour, rather than following the path he had followed. Though it takes time to make contact for a detour, it is less likely to get caught in a trap like earlier. Besides, this time, unlike earlier, we weren't just focusing on the signs of Niewe. It reads and recognizes changes in all surroundings and all signs. Even a flock of small animals retreating to fear the actions of the enlivened Imperial Demon is captured at the edge of consciousness. I also found out that only Bleek seems to be the Imperial Demon living in this forest. When it comes to the lurking forests of Bleek within Gandhia, although I remember the forests of the Apostles, Bleek lives outside the forests of the Apostles, and nothing but within Gandhia. I saw so much at the Kruselk War that I didn't like it.

According to research, the bleak is widely distributed from the centre to the north of the small group of nations, creating nests in the forest. Just because you encounter a bleak in the woods doesn't mean this forest is a forest of messengers.

Setuna continued to approach Niewe's signs while avoiding encounters with herds of breeks traveling in groups through the woods. stops again, because Niewe suddenly stopped on her feet. It turns out he's in an open place in the woods, forward. The topography, like the one chosen for the hemisphere, is also nostalgic for memory.

That was precisely the terrain destroyed by the battle between Setuna and the flock of Bleaks.

(Was it the forest of messengers)

It was the only place I could hope to miss anymore for Setsuna.

The Apostolic Forest is a small forest lying in the south of Gandion, the king's capital on the Gandia side. It is known in Gandia's founding mythology as the land where the Silver Lion Rayon descended. Layon is said to have empowered the ancestors of the Royal Gandhian family, thereby creating Gandhian, the land of lions. They say that the name of the country is the god of lions (Gandia), that the king's capital is the Shinto shrine of lions (Gandion), and that the national seal is a silver lion are all due to the legend of Layon.

A forest colored by such legends, but I miss Setsuna because this forest was the place where Setsuna was summoned to this world and the first view of another world.

Perhaps it can be called the original landscape in different worlds.

I met Azmaria-Altemax in this forest and was told how to use armed summoning techniques by her, with a black spear in my hand. I haven't told anyone that the battle with Bleek resulted in the engraving of destruction marks on parts of the woods, but they made a fuss at Gandhia for a time. The Apostolic Forest is an important place for the Gandhian royal family and for the country, and must not be destroyed.

I guess it could be called a sanctuary.

So it can be said that it has become a nest of small Imperial Demons like Bleak. It is the sanctuary of the Royal Gandia, but therefore no one can enter it, nor is it to be cared for, because there is nothing like visiting it, whether it be a royal human or an important land. It's just that it's not an exaggeration to say that it's just a legendary land. A long time ago, rituals were performed in the Apostolic Forest, but because of the great damage caused by the Imperial Demon in each ritual, rituals are no longer performed in the Apostolic Forest.

Setuna watched the destruction trail with her breath ready and her face out of the trunk of the tree. Neewe is alone, standing still. It was like waiting for Setuna to attack me. It doesn't even look like it's stretching through some kind of trap. He was in the midst of a hemispherically shaped earth, a place that was too conspicuous to trap. If we are going to put up a trap, it is in the woods that we should set it up. Why did you bother inviting me out of the woods?

Though I'm wary, I can't keep waiting for them to get out.

(... No, this is...)

Setuna frowned at the voices that plundered her ears. A line of words different from the common language. An ancient language chant according to the ceremony. Chanting of the spell. Construction of the surgical ceremony. Armed summons.

Immediately jump out onto the site and point the cutting edge of the spear at Niewe. Neewe was unarmed with both hands and had no edge of thurst. I guess I was repatriating at some point.

(Is that what slowed it down then!

Setuna is angry at herself for not being too alert to Niewe, who struck her heart as she fired rays from the black spear, and who could only recognize the reason for his reduced speed of movement as a trap. It wasn't actually a trap or anything. Niewe misled Setuna into believing that there were other traps by first letting Setuna enter the flock of bleaks. In the meantime, he must have carried out a deportation and started chanting for a re-summons.

I wonder why he needed to be repatriated because he only had one crack of a pair of knives.

(only one......)

Neewe easily deflected the rays of the black spear. There is no choice but to be avoided if it is easy, such as an attack narrowed to power. In the first place, Setsuna is just like Niewe. If Niewe doesn't summon me Edge of Thurst, I can't fight. The destruction of the Edge of Thurst is the purpose of Setuna and the purpose of the Black Spear. I don't deal with Niewe, who doesn't have the edge of thurst, etc., but I can also say that I can't deal with him.

(You mean that!

Setsuna figured out why Niewe only had one short-knife in her hand. It would be what should be called the disadvantage of Edge of Surst's ability to transfer space. Edge of Surst's ability to transfer space probably means replacing the position of the knife.

Neewe placed one crack of the Edge of Surst in the Apostolic Forest and, along with the other Edge of Surst, made contact with Setuna during the martial arts, activating her ability to transfer space. As a result, the position of the Edge Observer that activated the space transfer capability was replaced with the Edge Observer that was placed in the Apostolic Forest. And Neewe, who was touching it, and even Setuna, who was touching him, were forwarded to the Forest of the Apostles.

Guess what, I guess so.

Regardless, that's not all Edge of Thurst's ability. Otherwise, there's something I can't explain. There is also a great possibility that speculation is not correct, and it is also true that every possibility must be assumed.

But the ability to reposition the double-knife was troublesome enough. If you throw one of them far away, it's possible to get out of the battle zone immediately.

At that moment when I realized the nasty ability of Edge of Thurst,

"Armed Summoning"

A spell blinked around Neewe and the completion of the procedure was presented. An explosive light smeared Setuna's vision white. Setuna stepped further into Niewe at the same time as she landed. Light converges in both hands of Neewe, and a short sword with a lid appears. Black monochrome short knife. Edge of Thurst. A poke by Setuna's black spear was sandwiched by a pair of two swords, making a fierce noise and scattering a spark. The tip is tangled at the tip of a double-knife and thrown forcefully at each spear-grabbing setuna. Twisting his torso as he is flown, he puts Niewe in sight, points the tip of the spear at his opponent, and emits a ray of traction. The running of light that burns his sight instantly reaches where Neewe was, but he is jumping back to the left. The rays pierce the ground and explode small. It won't be fatal where you hit it directly, but it will make you incapacitated. Nevertheless, the mental depletion of light is intense. It's not something you can rely on so much where you've curtailed your power. Kick the ground at the same time as landing and kill to Niewe. We can't give them time to use their unidentified abilities. It was also during the bundle that he jumped at full speed, much faster than Setuna's blade reached the distance it reached Niewe, and he has chilled to tell.

"Slow"

Shortly after I heard Niewe's voice, I saw him lay his double sword full of himself. Signs appeared directly behind Setuna the moment the two dark black swords touched each other. An overwhelming sense of weight killing intent.

(inevitable......!

It was almost at the same time that Setsuna emitted a ray of light toward the spear backwards aggressively, and a severe pain ran on her glutes. In the middle of a leap, he is slammed to the ground with the momentum of a blow he ate from behind. Impact. Jumps off with just arm strength while rolling sideways as it is. There's no sign of Neewe around. He left Setuna's surrounding quadrants with different abilities than his spatial metastases. To definitely kill Setuna, I guess.

Point your gaze at the raid point as you re-grip the black spear. My left hand was touching my gluteal wound. The wound was never shallow. I feel a fever. There's blood. Naturally, an attack by the Edge of Thurst means it penetrates the hips of a new piece of equipment easily.

It is known in a sense as common sense that protective equipment makes little sense in the battle between armed summoners. I therefore prefer light clothing to skilled armed summoners such as Faria. Disappointing wearing a heavy outfit is synonymous with blunt movement, and nothing is more lethal than blunt movement in battle between armed summoners.

And I'm in that fatal state.

A gluteal wound would reduce Setuna's physical ability. I'm pretty sure it's going to make a bad move. Significant, not so much. Patience will do anything. But they're the ones. Edge of Thurst is a family member of the Black Spear, whose abilities are overwhelming. It's hard to imagine it's just above the black spear, but Neewe's physical ability with the edge of thurst could be fleshy or slightly above Setuna's physical ability with the black spear.

Unlike Setsuna, Niewe is a raw armed summoner, trained and flesh-building for years, not training for a burning blade like Setsuna.

(But that's the same for them)

At the point where Neewe cut him off, there was a scary trace of blood. First of all, there is no doubt that the rays of the spear directly hit or plundered Niewe. So I left this place. Nevertheless, it is difficult to believe that it caused a fatal injury. Sometimes it was close range, and it was squeezing as much power as possible. It may be possible to die if the hit is bad, but there won't be more to it than he's gone.

The question is, how did he show up behind Setuna and disappear from behind?

(What kind of ability?)

force different from the spatial transfer due to position exchange. Edge of Thurst's ability, no doubt. Because if you're capable of another summoning arm, you don't have to bother to re-summon Edge of Thurst. And having to re-summon means the ability to not activate just one.

There was a sight on the verge of Niewe disappearing behind Setuna's brain. Neewe was appearing behind Setuna the moment she lay her double-knife on top of her body. And that's what happened last year when we fought him in the New Town. He appears behind Setuna and slashes his back the moment he lays the double sword of Edge of Thurst. At first, Setuna thought that was Niewe's ability to transfer space, but apparently it was turning out to be different.

If the ability to activate a double knife on top of each other is a spatial transfer, there is no need to bother to use the ability to exchange positions to transport Setsuna to the forest of messengers. Repositioning is the ability to have to sacrifice one of the edge ob-thursts. In a situation where Setuna needs to be approached suddenly, it is very unfavourable to have to lose one of the double knives. If you can transfer space in a different way, you've never crossed the line.

This means that the ability to activate a double-knife overlay is a separate kind of capability from spatial transfer.

(but hey... it just seems like I metastasized what I thought of that one)

Niewe, at that time, was appearing behind Setuna's back at the same time as she disappeared from her sight.

Setuna concentrated all nerves. We must not miss every change around us. It wasn't just a hemispheric wasteland, it also turned its consciousness in the woods, and if change came for a moment, it had to cope with it. There is nothing more careful than Niewe's unknown abilities. As a result, he succeeded in detecting the signs of Neewe. He seemed to be lurking in the back of the woods. I don't even know what state it is. Is it minor injury or serious injury? Are you willing or not to continue the fight? Or are you just watching how Setuna comes out?

My gluteal wound hurts. I can see the blood flowing. It doesn't seem like it's just a wound that bleeds a lot and dies, but it's not something you can ignore forever.

Leave him alone, he'll get in the way of the fight sooner or later.

Setsuna had a bad feeling.

(No way......)

Isn't Niewe waiting somewhere for Setuna to lose her strength?

There was also a good chance that he was a person who would not choose means if it was for the purpose of killing Setuna and destroying the black spear.

If so, I'll just have to go out here.
