Episode XVII: Why Elsier Can't Win

It's after noon now, and we're all headed there because Cyril's mansion called us in.

Rhina went to tell him about our special training progress this morning, but he told him to bring us in on the spot in the afternoon.

Kuna has been grumpy all morning.

"Sage, you idiot! Liar!"

"I was expecting a bluff, but the sausage is honest with the lower body."

They reprimanded me.

"No, if you mess with all that flashy shit, I'll attack you too!

Since then, I've poured plenty of demon stones into Kuna to rank 3.

As expected, Kuna, who said he couldn't beat the Demon Stone, quickly attacked with the first Demon Stone, lost to the Demon Stone, and was greatly disturbed.

And when I reached Rank 3, I lost my reason and even tempted myself.

Anne also said she didn't like being out of company, so she came into the war and it's a pattern.

"... I can't complain about Kuna. I ended up in the air."

"That's it, this is this"

Kuna sniffs.

"Kuna is so upset and embarrassed, you're just trying to deceive her."

Kuna blows a lousy whistle off her face.

also cleverly deviating to the tail of the mundane.

As always, I suck at lying.

"Nevertheless, I wonder why Father called us"

"Probably about the war. I guess there's something I can say for the first time when I'm in Rank 3."

I don't suppose we've ever been considered a force of war.

We finally made it to Rank 3.

Wield the power of one rank on each trump card. I mean, we don't take the back unless we're Rank 5 opponents right now.

Rank 5 is only counted with one hand, besides Elsier.

"You care about your father's story. Fight for me, I have to fight for you more than anyone."

The enemy named himself the Knights of the Holy Roses and said he needed Kuna's life to save the world.

Soil, fire, wind and water. Each of the four most beloved races, the Gnome, the Firefox, the Elf, the Water Essence, will be a demonic stone that symbolizes each attribute if the heart is pulled out alive.

Kuna is the ancestral [Nine-tailed Firefox]. Apparently her fire demon stone has a special power and craves it.

Elsier received a declaration of war from the Knights of the Holy Roses.

If you don't give me the coona, I'll destroy Elsier.

"But I can't imagine Elsier losing. There's only one rank 6 Cyril in the world. Other than that, Mr. Reina and Mr. Sola are rank five, and a dozen of the elite troop Iraqsa are all heard to be rank five. Elsier also has rank 4 and rank 3 people, and I don't think there's a country in the world that can beat Elsier."

Anne is right.

To supplement, high-ranking elves and fire foxes are a species that was originally loved by Mana and has more strength than rank. In addition, Elsier has developed magic techniques differently and even has unique strengths such as [spiritualization].

If Elsier gets serious, even a sealed city with adventurers from all over the world will fall in a few days.

"Mr. Cyril still can't win Elsier. He said he can't win because Firefox and Elf, most beloved by fire and wind, are the main battle forces. You might find the answer to that."

"That's going to make me useless."

Kuna looked disgusted.

This time it could be useless because it is a kuna with a particularly strong power among the fire foxes.

I went to Cyril's mansion.

He is led to the guest room by his wife, Lucier of Elf.

This is the Japanese-style room that Sola showed me the first day I came to Elsier.

Cyril and Sola were there.

The moment we walked into our room, Sora started making tea.

"Hey, you did well. Have a seat."

Cyril called out to us, so we had a meeting, and we took our seats.

"I think the sausages are making predictions too, but this time I called them to talk about the war"

We harden our expressions.

I want to protect Elsier, and most importantly, I want to protect Kuna.

You can never lose.

"You said we'd be the key to the fight."

"Exactly. I had to give up without the sausages. And we didn't even talk about it as it was rank 2. Kuna wore me a lot of firefoxing of Nine Tails. Annelotta brought Kvar Beste to the second stage of liberation. Though Sauge was a human being, he found a tremendous trick to combine with the pseudo-nine-tailed fire foxification and spiritualization, and the power of temper with them. You're strong, that's why I'm counting on you."

We snort at Cyril's words.

Everyone is ready. The kind of guy who butts in here is not in [the tail of the Devil's Sword].

"I do everything I can for Kuna and for the Elsiers I like. I want you to tell me why Elsier can't win."

Cyril nods open her mouth.

"The Knights of the Holy Roses have two trump cards. One is the absolute area of protection. Just like Kvar Beste, it's an au part that can't be made in this day and age. I can create a line that I can't even penetrate. Expand a radius of about two hundred meters around the small cross. It's a moving fortress. I can deliver the army intact. No Ranged Attacks."

"If that is all, there is as much to deal with. It's not like the enemy can attack from the inside."

"You're right, if that's all you have to do, you can aim for the moment when the other one unbinds for the attack. But the other one is troublesome."

Cyril shrugs her shoulder and says the rest of the words.

"They use demons. The demon's name is Spirit-eater Seikura. As the name suggests, eat the surrounding mana at its root. That's not all. Drives nearby spirits crazy. We, beings loved by spirits like elves and fire foxes, have some spirits in our bodies even if we do not [spiritualize] them. When you drive the spirits in your body crazy, you can't even stand properly"

I see. Is that why you can't win because you're the four most beloved species of the Spirit?

"How many spirits do you eat?"

"All I know is information from ten years ago, but a hundred and a little. You should be ready for that."

"I see, what is the scope to drive spirits crazy and the strength of spirit-eating?

"More or less, something like fifty to 100. The strength of the Spirit Eater is equivalent to Rank 2. If you're dealing with more than a hundred bodies, you can't even talk about it if it's not the equivalent of Rank 4. So I told you guys with trump cards that would be rank 3 and show more strength"

It's a nasty opponent.

As long as there is a spirit-eater, it is difficult to count on the power of Elsier, whose fire fox and elf are the main forces.

This battle depends on how we can end spirit-eating.

"If there's no disturbing connections, I guess it doesn't matter."

"Sauge is right. Elf's bow arm is superb. I can fire precision shots from hundreds of meters. I could turn him into a beehive from outside the spirit-eating range of effects. Their methods of warfare are simple. Get closer while protecting the Knights and Spirit Eaters, including Rank 4 and Rank 3, in an absolutely protective realm, and disable the Elves and Firefoxes with a straight Spirit Eater brain"

It's a mess.

The strongest shield and the strongest spear go hand in hand.

To the invincible junction.

"There are two things Mr. Cyril expects from us in that situation. First, the end of spirit-eating. And the destruction of the cross that is destroying, penetrating and becoming the medium of the junction by Kvar Beste of Anne"

"Exactly. If we get that far, we can win for sure."

Pretty tough.

The enemy is not just a spirit-eater, but the high-ranking knights of its escort.

Above all……….

"And I'm just packing, too."

Kuna shakes her hand so hard that she regrets it.

There is no more loved by the Spirit of Fire than she is. Moro influences the spirit-eating.

"If it's a fire fox from Nine Tails, it's no problem. With that absolute rule, I can restore to normal the spirits driven mad by spirit-eating."

"Good! You can fight with Sauji!

Kuna makes her eyes shine.

"It's not just an elf. I can fight a little too in the High Elf. Nevertheless, unlike the nine-tailed fire fox, which extremes fire above its limit, in me in the High Elf, where the wind is strengthened using all attributes, it weakens considerably under the influence, and I can't fight for long. It's about as strong as Rank 4 and Rank 5. I'll take care of the escort, so I want the sausages to destroy the border."

I can count on you.

Stronger than Rank 4 would be greatly appreciated.

At the end there is Cyril's [Circumflex Regression]. Cyril is reincarnating repeatedly and can only return to her past self for a few minutes.

Things will change once and for all if it becomes a cyril of a fighting past.

Still, Cyril relied on us for a one-time trump card and once we used it, Cyril couldn't fight it completely.

The only time such bills run out is when you have other insurance. It is foolish to fight in a situation where one measure fails and you lose.

"Mr. Cyril, I see the situation. We have to be stronger. And if we can't use the power that came to Rank 3, we won't talk."

Still new to Rank 3. I need to get used to my body.

"Yes, I will definitely [Kyouo's Firefox] as well."

I can't lose, either.

To date, I have tried several [spiritualization] and [crest exterior] matching moves.

However, [Ethereal Silver Firefox], a pseudo-nine-tailed fire fox at the end of [Spiritualization], combines [Silver Firefox] with [Seal Exterior]. It was only within Kvar Beste that we could achieve that. Now is the time to be extremed.

In Rank 2, it was physically impossible, but now that it is Rank 3, I can challenge it.

Show it mastered by the time of the battle against the Knights of the Holy Rose.

"I think I can still draw strength from Kvar Beste."

Anne holds the pattern of Kvar Beste.

She's right, she's unconsciously making a save.

My fear of Kvar Beste has not been abandoned. Drop it there and Anne will still be strong.

Me, Kuna and Anne are still loaded with challenges.

"Sauge, cuna, annelotta. I'm hoping. Be strong."

We snorted forcefully at Cyril's words.

Come on, let's get stronger and stronger.

Not to lose anything anymore.
