A dense magic power that suddenly floods with smoke in a city full of ruins.

The demonic power that confuses and corrupts people is coming to surround us.

I'm totally fine. [M]

Even though my amako was on the verge of being safe from the spell of Nea's immunity on my shoulder...!!

"Koga! You'll be fine!!"

"Oh no! If you're careful, this is no big deal!!"

Koga was fine... but you stabbed a magic blade in your leg and took care of it.

I threw a magic bullet into his leg and checked that the area was safe while he was healing.

“I'm fine! I've experienced the power of demons several times!"

Nagi-san is just as fine as I am.

Hannah was fluttering, and Roone was completely under the influence and blinded.

My men are... under a bit of influence.

Exactly, with a short period of training, I didn't get to play the demonic powers---?

"Gu, ah, the demon's magic power... ahhh?"

……

Could it be that Mr. Nono's demonic powers don't work?

"Well, anyway..."

"Inoguchi-san..."

However, it would be impossible to fall into the trap lightly by increasing the concentration.

Immunity could not be fully applied, but my men have been trained to bounce back hypnosis to the point of seduction!!

I struck my hands lightly spread out and made a sound of panning.

Haha!?

Only then did the men return to their senses in a happy state.

"Have you woken up yet!! If you want, prepare your formation!!"

"" "Ha!!" "

Replying to my fury, my men moved into a state of alert while keeping an eye on their surroundings.

After confirming that, I spoke to Amako, who was next to me, and Hannah, who was under the influence of the demon's magic power, and Nea, who was using her cloak to draw Looney and cast a resistance spell on her shoulder.

Nea, even Hannah and Roone have been given a magic spell of resistance!!

”I really disabled the demon's magic power with my clap, this guy...”

Brainwashing is still a formidable exercise.

It looks like they're trying to stop us, but the demon countermeasures have hardened.

Vina-san, what's the reaction?!

"There's no response to magic sensing!"There is no demon but me nearby! "

Remote magic?

Or is it harassment? There's plenty of room for that, but if you use this method instead of raiding, the next thing that happens--

"Usato! Something is coming from the lake!!"

Prediction of Amako.

Shortly thereafter, the splash of water ——— was accompanied by my bursting shell and Korga's magic thorns.

How about that?

"It's not easy."

The water bounced off of me and Korga's attack gathered in the air and turned into an octopus-like tentacle.

Then several identical tentacles appeared from the surface of the lake, and we could see that they were pointing at us.

"Ah, El-san!!"

"I know you don't have to tell me!!"

The tentacles of water are coming one after the other with a force reminiscent of a turbulent current.

As soon as I called Elle behind me, she stood next to me as she unfolded the magic of the wind.

She puts her hand on the healing burst shell that I made on my hand and puts the wind on it.

"Fine! Do it!!"

I'm going to intercept you!!

Along with Erl's signal, he threw a healing bursting round.

Explosive shells are accelerated by the magic of the wind.

At the moment of collision with the incoming water tentacle ——— the wind and shock waves were released.

"---If you name it, it's a healing bomb."

"Don't name your moves on your own!?"

A Mirakuru must-have that adds power to a regular burst shell by combining El's wind magic.

The tentacles of water in front of him thus made it possible to fly and temporarily withdraw.

"Ah, ahhhh...! I haven't had any meetings yet!! What's the matter with him? He's really gone!!"

"Hey, you were so unstable! Mr. Elle!!"

"Shut up, you pig!!"

”HIHHHH!!”

Don't be out of control, move on!!

Besides, it hasn't stopped moving yet!! Since the water itself is in shape, it can be broken or regenerated!!

"Da (oh)!!"

... Nanagi-san!?

Nagi-san, who jumped out in front of me to pass me, stood with his black sword clutching with both hands on his shoulders, and swung it diagonally with a step that made the ground sink.

"Megumi (Idola)!!"

A blow to the body.

It was released like a slap in the face, and the impending wall of water itself was broken in two (...).

The power was immense, and just the aftermath of the slashing slashed even the surface of the water a few hundred meters away.

"Well, that's exactly what Rose and Nero are doing... what they're doing is too strong..."

"I want to impress you, but first we have to do something about this situation!! Nagi-san, I'll hold it down with a healing burst!! I'll escape the city with you and Koga---"

When I said that word, a number of water tentacles came over my head.

Fly away and the water will stretch to track me down, even if I avoid it.

Is it me you're after?

Unnatural chasing... is there some sort of regularity?

When you throw a bursting munition at the incoming water tentacle and bounce it off ——— somehow, the tentacles flock to where the bursting munition started.

Rabbit, this water seems to be attracted to magic power.

I see.

Is it like the magic of water that reacts to magic?

Then the first priority is to use magic bullets to distract them and make time for everyone to escape.

"It's up to me and you to fight to unleash magic..."

Elle-san, Hannah-san, Veena-san... maybe.

Elle and Vina wanted Koga to follow them, and Hannah was influenced by the demon's magic.

In other words, I have decided what I should do.

"Nagi-san, Koga!! These guys seem to be attracted by magic power!! I'm going to be a bastard, so please help me!"

Oh!

The number of water tentacles keeps growing.

That's enough to make you think you're using all the water from the lake itself.

... is this the reason this city is in ruins?

Nea, you're with Amako.

”... hah, I can't help it anymore”

If it's just me, I'm fine. [M]

It doesn't matter if we just rendezvous, so Nea gets to talk about the Amakos.

Confirm that Nea has moved to Amako's shoulder and call out to her again.

"Amako, can you come!?"

Yeah!

Let's start with Amako.

Stretch out the cape and give Amako to Koga.

The moment he receives Amako and thinks of Roone and Hannah next---, a huge water tentacle is struck and blocked between me and Koga.

Then try again---,

"...... Eusato, no!! Runes are flushing!!"

The voice of Amako on Koga's side hastened to attract Looney to us.

A few seconds later, the water was pounded harder than before, and I had a cold sweat.

"Have you been interfering?"

You've obviously stopped it, haven't you?

Did you aim for Roone?Or did you simply aim for Keira's cloak?

"Rabbit!!"

Seeing Nagi-san's voice, she points to the lake.

She points toward a lake that's creating tentacles of water while swirling ——— underwater.

"The ruins in the water...?"

The phenomenon created by sorcery unnaturally dug the lake itself like soil, and beyond that, half of the city, which was supposed to have sunk, looked like a large ruin.

Normally, I don't think I'd go in.

However, around the ruins, there was something like a membrane of air, which was strangely similar to the ruins on the poisonous earth that I visited when I tried to recover the power of the demon king.

"Please head over there!! What we want is probably over there!!"

"Oh!! What are you going to do!!"

“I'll attract them!! I'll meet you later!!”

I gathered magic power in my right hand as I kicked off the water tentacle with a magic shock wave.

Even if you say it like this, Nagi-san and Koga will still be swallowed up by the water!!

Well, then, I'm determined to do it!!

If you're gathering in magic power!! I love system strengthening!!

When I jumped up with my cloak while activating the system strengthening, almost all the water tentacles gathered here to ignore Nagi-san and the others.

"Come on!! If only I could catch you!!"

Secure Looney and Hannah firmly to their backs with the cloak on their backs.

The two of them had not yet recovered from the influence of the demon's magic.

While protecting the two of them, he fled with all his strength from the water tentacles that were attacking him from all directions!!



I realized that the demonic power was more troublesome than I expected.

Due to the magic attribute of phantom magic, I never thought that even though the magic power that affects the spirit should be difficult to work, I would not be deceived by this.

No, maybe one of the reasons was that the concentration of magic power used as a trap was too strong... but the thought that it was so cloudy had healed.

"...... Ugh, is that you, Wasato?"

This healing magic wave and back, which makes you feel calm in vain, is definitely Ussat-kun's.

I wonder why, but perhaps he's carrying me with a dark magic cape, bewildered by the demonic power.

It's tremendously shaky.

The vibrations and the wind are already making things worse.

I slowly open my eyes, feeling a lot of unpleasant hunches.

"Giaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

An unbelievable scream overflowed from my mouth.

Because I'm flying around with my body fixed to Rabbit-kun's back!!

It's strange not to shout at this!!

Rather, what is the situation?

Usato-san!! Behind you, I'm coming from all directions!!

"Corresponding!!"

What is the mysterious water that is attacked from the surrounding area?

It reminds me of an octopus's legs, and it's about to attack us flying in the sky with billions and billions of copies to count.

Usat-kun suddenly accelerates with me and Roone on his back, releasing it with just the speed ——— and throws the usual explosive magic bullet from his palm as he changes direction.

"After all, you're full of stopping!!"

Explodes and scatters water tentacles, but regenerates quickly.

He swung his limbs like a spin while tonguing, knocking down the tentacles of water ——— and released a green shockwave from his right palm.

"If we don't do something about this, I'll be chasing you forever...?"

That's where Wussat notices me on his back.

Hannah-san! Have you noticed!

"Have you noticed!! Isn't that right!? What's going on while your consciousness is vague? Why are you in a Doshura yard like this?!"

"Ah, I'm wasting my time explaining, so I'd like to ask for Roone first!!"

"What is it!?"

When I returned to you and looked in your arms, I saw Looney, who was asleep as if she was nodding.

She's fixed with dark magic so she won't be shaken off like me, but I wonder if she lost consciousness due to the influence of the demon's magic?

Nodding, Roone with a bitter expression murmured something as she twitched.

"Mom..."

"Yes, I'm your mom."

Isn't it a crime to call me Mom, even though I always call you Mom?

So I caught him.

"Hahaha! I can't catch you with that much speed!!"

——— Wasato-kun returns to me with a genuine voice in vain.

"Ah, dangerous, dangerous, I almost can't go back..."

Rabbit-kun!! Let's get out of here!!

"No, I'm still buying time!!"

"Buying time...!?"

Suddenly the flipped rabbit shows the ruins in the lake to me on my back.

That's... I see, that's what it is.

Kannagi and Koga headed for the ruins.

You're telling me that you bought them out so they wouldn't get attacked?

So, why am I and Looney here?

"... sorry!!"

... It's easy to complain here, but I know he's trying to get me and Looney to a safe place first because of his personality, so there's nothing I can do about it.

I don't think it's a strange excuse, but I think it has a losing character.

"---"

Rabbit-kun flies in the sky with a pushing water tentacle.

The water tentacles try to catch him with the force of volume as he moves around using the arcane technique of diverting direction with shock waves.

"... how about this!"

He soared and threw a slightly larger magic bullet.

Immediately after that, he wiped out the magic power that was wrapped around his body, and stopped floating in dark magic.

I chased the magic bullet to lure the water tentacle that dropped past him ——— and suddenly turned around to aim at the falling Wasato-kun.

"Chi!! It's annoying!!"

Once again, the levitating rabbit accelerates at once with a magical shockwave.

It jumps in preference to magic power, but it's intelligent enough to distinguish between human shapes?

"Ah, right! Healing remnant fist!!"

Wasato-kun, who seemed to have noticed something, covered his body with healing magic and left the magic coat in place.

Why are you doing that right now? Immediately after that, a swarm of water tentacles rushed towards the end of my sight on Rusat-kun's back ——— magic power.

"I'm attacking the afterimage...?"

While flying, Wasato left behind magic images.

I feel like I can't say anything because strange techniques are active in strange places.

That water is full of magic!!

That's right!!

Indeed, as Keira-chan said, the water tentacles that were continually exposed to the magic power of Usato-kun had a slight green magic power.

Magic power that disappears after a short time.

When he saw it, Rabat-kun suddenly suddenly turned around and pushed himself into the water tentacle.

"Wait, why are you banging on me?! Why are you banging on me?!"

System enhancement!!

"It's not a voice that strengthens the system of healing magic!?"

Uthat-kun, who does what he wants to do, puts his green glowing hand against the tentacle of water.

In a moment, an untold shock slammed against us.

"---!!?"

There was no screaming this time.

The body of Usato-kun, who was soaring into the sky, stopped in the air.

"I think the magical power of the overall system deterioration has been chained up."I could have wiped it out, but it's still going to play. "

Wow, it was such a shock.

What do you mean?

Usuat-kun calmly looks down at the lake underneath him and calls out to me on his back.

Hannah-san, are you okay?

"I hate bunnies..."

"Ah, hahah..."

Even though I'm older, I'm half-crying.

If it hadn't been for Looney in this arm right now, I wouldn't have known what I was doing to you. [M]

"...... It looks like the Korgas have safely entered the ruins."

What are you going to do, Mr. Hussat?

"Let's go, too."

... if we think about it normally, we'll end up in the ruins.

But the ruins are protected by those water tentacles, and it's unlikely they'll be able to get in by any normal means.

Well, as long as I had the ability to break through as much as Mr. Usato.

I'll let you manipulate the magic bullets because you're obsessed with magic power.

It's helpful.

Think of me as the only person who fights with magic bullets on all sides of this Explorer.

I have to work for about the amount of luggage I have had so far.

"Shortly before going into the water, Hannah and Roone wrap themselves in a cloak.If the water leaks, please tell me through Keira!! Then go--- "

Please wait!!

As Keira opens the cape wide, a buzzing sound is emitted from the cloak.

When you lean your neck against the sound, the collar of your cloak changes into a mask-like shape that covers the lower half of your face.

"This is..."

”I've inhaled a lot of air!Maybe you can breathe in the water!! "

I've been thinking about it since I first heard about it, but isn't Keira's magic too convenient?

"I'm so glad you're here...!"

Thank you so much!! Let's follow you quickly!!

"Ahh!!"

The rabbit that bears us will skyrocket on the spot, gaining altitude and then accelerating at once.

At that time, he naturally threw several small magic shells into the air to throw them away.

"Eh, Mr. Usato, is that what you--?"

"Healing Spreading Bullet"

The magic bullet exploded in my sight on my back.

From the overflowing shock wave, magic bullets are scattered in the air so that they can bounce, and the water tentacles are drawn.

However, when I saw the magic bullet falling like a shooting star, I didn't even have the energy to surprise me anymore.

……

At this time, I understood Mr. Nea's feelings very well.

I don't know what to do because my enemies don't like it, but my allies have noticed that it's mentally troublesome.

"After all, I hate Ussato-kun..."

While saying that, I also released magic bullets around to support him.

"Prepare for impact!!"

"I know you don't have to tell me!!!!"

Screaming in a hurry, my sight is shrouded in darkness, covered in the cloak of dark magic.

The sound of falling into the water.

Don't worry.

Honestly, I wasn't very anxious.

After all, there are healing wizards on our backs like monsters.
