Episode 18: The World Buried in the Sand - Medium

Grand Medusa with a sickled cane in Onet's different atmosphere.

……

I wasn't taking my eyes off Onet. Still, when I realize it, it's going around to the side, and they're trying to take my back.

Awesome speed. Had it not been for the sound of the ground rushing through in the sand, I would have completely lost sight of it.

Relies on the sound to wield a sickle back.

"Too bad. I just lost it"

Behind the turned Grand Medusa - I hear voices from the direction that was in front of me, kicked over and bounced over the sand.

"I see. Does that mean the sound was bluff?"

Squeeze as you look up.

Onet jumped big up. Her body is tangled with thread, especially thickly tangled to her right foot, like a leg nail.

Align your right foot aim to the Grand Medusa on the ground to increase speed and fall at once.

The leg armor has a pointed tip like Lance. If you are pierced from the top by such objects, there will be no clumps.

Running left or right could come after us.

So, Grand Medusa pulls her powers out of her body.

"No!

Onet panics through the desert with his leg armor.

I watched him sink into the sand, and realized that he couldn't make it just for a moment.

"Where the hell..."

That's when the sound of sand blowing up behind Onet.

It was Grand Medusa who showed up pushing the sand away. He was moving around in the sand and going around behind his back to return the interest he had just been attacked from behind.

Tail of the extended lower body. Everyone who sees him jumped up with his lower body like a spring can tell.

However, Onet knew the state of the Grand Medusa without even turning her face.

But that doesn't matter. Grand Medusa wields a sickle against her back.

……

However, a large amount of sand is hung on such a body and the attack is interrupted.

If Grand Medusa looked in the direction of the flying sand, she could see the yarn braided like a net.

"I don't have time to look around."

I feel uncomfortable under my feet and jump up. But by then, the desert was no longer the dominant world of Grand Medusa.

A 30-metre wide plate pops up from under the sand.

"You're not. This is a thread, too!

The stiffened yarn was so stiffened that I thought it was a plate.

A jumping Grand Medusa lands on a plate of yarn. The feeling when you put your foot on is little different than when you stood on the ground.

And the fact that the bottom was no longer sand put it at a disadvantage for Grand Medusa.

"Come on, let's settle"

Threads are tangled and lances and shields are made in Onet's hands.

Run straight over the yarn and stick the lance out to the Grand Medusa.

If you tilt your body and avoid Lance, Grand Medusa also responds with a loss and a sickle, but your body is slashed by Lance, who is taken by a shield and protruded again.

"This......!

Sand jumps out from beyond the plate of yarn to Onet.

But there's a distance to where Onet is. The chunks of sand that flew to beat them are avoided by jumping backwards, and a small amount of sand that could be manipulated is also bounced by the shield.

As a result of this being at a disadvantage.

"You seem to be making me struggle."

"Right. How dare you come up with a way like this?"

"I'll take that as a compliment."

I'm trying to manipulate and break through the sand under the yarn plate from earlier. However, sand cannot be used because it has not reached the point of breaking through the sturdy thread plate.

And the inability to replenish the sand is deadly in melee.

Look at the sickle you have so that you don't understand.

"I understand. The sand used for that sickle is depleted over time. You need to replenish the sand regularly in order to remain as powerful as the first one."

"... you notice a lot."

"If you look at this, you'll see."

Onet storms unrelated to wear and tear.

He responds and bounces back the protruding lance with a sickle, but every time he defends, the sand that is forming the sickle is shredded.

If we keep meeting like this, weapons will be lost from Grand Medusa within minutes. The wand will be left behind, but it cannot be powerful enough to break Onet's thread.

That's about it...

"Huh!

A sickle that is shaken down sharply.

Sand slashes and flies along the blade trajectory.

"This is tough."

Onet, who decides it's hard to take it with a shield, throws the shield down toward the sand slaughter. As I imagined, the shield gets lightly amputated.

But Onet's purpose was to set one hand free.

Reaching left towards the slaughter of the sand, the thread that popped out to overflow shapes a thick wall between the slaughter and the slaughter.

At first it was a sand slaughter that could have been slashed, but the movement stopped completely about two meters ahead, and finally it collapses after losing the shape of the slaughter.

Only sand is left inside the yarn walls. I can't do anything with Grand Medusa in a state of total loss of power.

However, he succeeded in stopping Onet's foot, which he relieved by preventing slaughter.

Sand rising from the ground appears in a sphere on the side of the onet and diagonally behind it, and a shell of sand popping out of his mouth looms at high speed. It is not sand for the purpose of crushing it with an overwhelming amount of sand, as was the case earlier. Sand fired to shoot out Onet.

Onet, who was relieved, has not been able to deal with all the shells.

"I can see you."

Of course Grand Medusa knew.

The braided yarn contains a large amount of Onet's magic power and serves as a sensing organ.

So Onet can perceive every event through the thread strewn throughout it.

I get sensed through the yarn even if I install a trap. That's why Grand Medusa decided to attack in a flash after preparing the means of attack and creating a blind spot.

Three seconds until we reach it after the sand shells are ready. What can be done in the meantime...

"You underestimated my powers,"

He stopped pitted in the air while flying towards Onet.

The sand shells are stabbed with threads stretched out of Onet's hands.

The sand shells contain the magic of the Grand Medusa. It can be manipulated through magic even after it has been fired.

"... don't move!?

But sand shells are not even picky.

It was like being ruled by another.

"What have you done?"

There is only one such person.

"This is my skill. The subject's movements can be manipulated by sending magic through the yarn. Even if the target is a sand shell or even a thread, it can be operated in this way."

The sand shell that was heading towards Onet changes direction and flies to Grand Medusa.

There is no sand around that can be used for defense either. Because the bottom is a thread, it is also impossible to utilize the snake's body to avoid unusual sensations.

"Gu... gu!

A sand shell hits his arm and chest, crushing his arm and breaking his chest bone.

"That's it."

Lance pierces Grand Medusa's chest deeply.

Being pierced through the heart caused Grand Medusa's body to stop moving completely.
