Isekai Tensei no Boukensha

Chapter 12-6 Thunder

(This is a dream...)

I've been through something called a lucid dream a few times before, but I've never had a dream that I miss so much. The landscape in my dreams that is spreading in front of me belonged to the village of Kukri I used to see as a child.

(You don't have people...)

But sadly, I can't see anyone alone in my dreams.

(It's a dream, so let me have a little fun...)

In my dreams, I seem to be walking in the direction of my own house from outside the village. After a while, I arrived at my nostalgic home where I spent some time between being welcomed in by my father and mother and being raided by zombies.

And as it was, shortly after I missed it, I pushed the door of the house and went inside. But I didn't stop in my room, I slammed through the house and walked out the back door.

(Is that it? Wasn't the kind of door you could pull open? Besides, there weren't any doors here, were there?

Maybe it's different from my actual memory because I'm in a dream, but I was somewhat concerned about the difference. But without confirming that, his body kept walking forward and went straight into the woods.

(I miss you...... I used to set a malbird trap around here and my father caught me unknowingly mad at me)

With that in mind, I went to the back of the woods, splitting the grass.

(I walked a lot, how far are we going?

I often act in dreams that don't make sense, but it's also changed that I just walk. Looks like we're headed somewhere, but as I recall, there's nothing ahead that could be a landmark, and "The Great Forest" just goes on.

(You just opened it... hmm? Is there something (...) over there?

I proceeded through the woods and went ahead and finally got out where I opened it. It looks like it's in a dream, and it's the first time I've ever been out of sight.

When I step into such an open place, something (...) is inviting me to call me at the end of my gaze.

(Who, that one?

Something calling me (...) is hiding my whole body in a hood, and I can't tell who it is with my face. My back length seems to be somewhat higher than mine, but I don't know my physique because of the hood, and I can't tell the difference between a man and a woman.

(creepy one...... but you should be on guard but for some reason your legs are headed towards him)

If this were real, I would either leave the scene without ever approaching, or use the appraisal to find out who I am. But in my dreams, I was inadvertently approaching a suspicious unidentified man without doing that.

When he noticed me approaching, he stopped the call and stuck his hand forward.

You mean grab that hand?

The hand that was stretched out towards me was supposed to be visible but I didn't know what kind of hand it was. Whether you are thin or muscular, male or female. I just can understand it's a hand in the shape of a person somehow.

When I got to a distance where I could shake such a hand in a few meters or more, something hit me in the middle of my forehead and my gaze forced me off him.

"There he is..."

I felt numb when I touched the area where the pain ran with my fingers reflexively, and when I checked my fingertips, there was blood on it. Once I recognized the blood and pain, I understood that the sight I thought was' dream 'until earlier was' reality '.

"You're sleepwalking...... come on!

When I put my gaze back on the front trying to figure out what was going on, it revealed who the guy who was calling me until earlier.

The identity is' skeleton '. The hands that had been stretched out to me and the faces peering through the hood were human bones that I had seen in human body models and so on. Maybe there's meat left in the hidden part of the hood, but that would be trivial. What's ahead of me (...) is not a person, but a demon or something close to it (bucket).

Such a monster was pointing in a different direction than where I was, trying to reach over there and use some kind of magic.

"What... Jeanne! Let me!

At the end of the sight of the monster was Jeanne. And the monster seems to be willing to eliminate Jeanne. Jeanne seems to be drunk by the difference in the chemicals and is grumpy.

Jeanne will be killed by the monster as it is. That's what I decided. I unleashed the wind magic 'airball' on the monster. The magic unleashed by the emphasis on speed blew up the artifact before the artifact unleashed magic on Jeanne.

"Jeanne, are you all right!

Having made Jeanne's safety a priority over unleashing the magic of pursuit on the monster, I broke between Jeanne and the monster by covering her back.

I guess I was able to help Jeanne because I was pretty lucky. Not only was I able to attack earlier, even though I was behind in my magic prep, because I chose speed-oriented magic, but it would also have something to do with the amount of magic that the monster was sure to use to kill Jeanne, and even more to target her. That would have been only a couple of seconds, but that hoard (...) of time saved Jeanne's life.

"What the hell is going on?

"I knew you were insane!

What Jeanne told me early on was that I was walking out of the camp with Fluffy and into the woods or that everyone but Jeanne was asleep and didn't wake up doing anything.

"No matter what you look at it from anywhere, it's a whole lot of anomalies... and the cause is definitely"

At the end of my gaze, there was a slowly rising monster. The hood that was wrapped was pantyworn, and the body of bone hidden beneath it was hidden from view.

"After all, your body is bone too... it would be easier if you were a skeleton, but when you have the magic to just put me and my grandparents together and put them in a trap, and the magic is barely working right now... is he rich!

In my image from previous life, Rich said zombies and skeletons, perceptions such as powerful demons even in so-called undetected monsters. That generally applies in this world as well (...).

However, unlike the programs that appear in the game, there is an individual difference in the strength of the demons that actually exist, which naturally can be said by the rich in front of you. But demons based on corpses like Rich often depend on the strength and condition of the original corpse, and even if they were born into a species called Rich, their strength can range from pin to quill depending on the material. Well, you can't be rich without that much strength, so the degree of threat as a demon is different from miscellaneous fish such as zombies and skeletons (that said, both zombies and skeletons vary considerably in strength depending on the material) than being rich.

And Rich, confronted with troublesome things, is almost certainly a monster close to the pin in Rich.

"Jeanne! Stay away from me!

"Okay!

I took ten golem kernels and my favorite knife out of a magic bag in my arm. Three of the golems that appeared turned behind us, and the other seven headed for Rich.

But the three golems that were in the front of Rich, among the seven bodies that made him go, were destroyed by Rich's magic.

"What magic!?

I have been using "Appraisal" against Rich since earlier, but I was unable to read the status. Likewise, the identity of the magic that now destroyed the Golem was unknown.

"The remaining golems, pinch them from left to right!

Two golems turned left and right of Rich, and the golem was gone between me and Rich.

"Stone or whatever! Throw it!"

As soon as I gave the order to the Golem, I immediately issued a series of 'airballs'. Rich was trying to respond with some magic to my magic, but he couldn't stand properly because of the blocks of stone and dirt he could throw from left to right.

"Does physical attack work better than magic... then this pushes it off!"

I switched from a wind magic 'airball' to a dirt magic 'earth ball' and took Rich down. Rich apparently couldn't afford it any more than he did when he was "airball," and after switching to "groundball," it felt like the best he could do was to keep him from falling instead of fighting back.

"Almost there!

Rich's eyes glowed demonically the moment I was sure I'd won. And the golems, who were throwing stones and dirt from Rich's left and right, stopped moving simultaneously.

"Broken!?

"Tenma! Behind you!

"Become!"

The golem's movement during the throw suddenly stopped, so I was distracted by some magic that it had been destroyed like the first three bodies, and Jeanne, who was behind it, realized something and raised her voice.

I noticed the anomaly behind my back with that voice, and I jumped off the spot, holding Jeanne back. At that next moment, three fists (...) were struck down where me and Jeanne had been until earlier.

"You took over the golem!

The identity of the three fists belonged to the three golems that kept us behind. And the four golems, who had stoned Rich until earlier, also walked out with their backs to Rich.

"Tenma, that's possible!

"I don't know. At least I can't, and I've never heard of it."

If you touch the golem directly, you won't be able to take control. For example, it would have been possible if Rich had made contact with the golem on Rich's left and right so that I wouldn't know (like Slalin, stretching a part of his body, etc.), but I don't know how he did it with regard to the three bodies that were behind us.

(I know it has something to do with the demonic glowing eyes then... anyway, I'd rather not use the golem)

It makes no sense if you know what caused it, but you can't prevent it. Fortunately, if that method works for me or Jeanne, I would be using it before the Golem. Neither me nor Jeanne have been manipulated like a golem, so we should at least consider it ineffective or ineffective for those who have the will. However, it may be another way, but I can't be optimistic because I don't know how to manipulate me and put everyone to sleep except Jeanne.

I destroyed the golem coming this way, and I had to face Rich in the absence of an ally golem.

The battle from there went on, glued, and the battle remained lacking in decision fights with each other. To be honest, there was also the hand of poking a gap and running over Jeanne, but there was a chance that my grandfathers wouldn't go back to normal if I didn't defeat this rich, so that was the only hand I could hit at the end of the day, when there was really nothing more I could do.

"Shit! Stiffer than it looks (...)!"

Since I decided to take him down, I've hit Rich with dozens of magic shots. The first magic I tried was' Light Attributes'. The magic of light attributes is said to work against undetected demons, but does that rich have a very strong resistance to light attributes or didn't work very well? Then I tried to use the magic of the "fire attribute", which, like the light attribute, has an effect on the undead system, but the risk is too great considering later on to use the fire magic in the forest.

So I attacked Rich around the magic of earthly attributes, but as well as the magic resistance, it was also physically resistant and didn't look like it was taking much damage. Fortunately, however, Rich was in a situation where, contrary to his high level of magic and physical resistance, he moved dull, slightly, but I kept pushing him more. Most of all, while covering Jeanne, this is a situation that would be reversed once and for all if a few mistakes were made.

"I got it!" Ground Lance "!

A series of magic of earthly attributes around 'Ground Ball' hit several of them in a row, and Rich glanced at the biggest ever in its recoil.

Poking through that gap, he struck a magic that was bigger than the 'Ground Ball' that had been unleashed until then and had a pointy tip like a assault spear (Lance), as the name suggests, across Rich's torso.

The punched in 'Ground Lance' pierced Rich's torso and blew it backwards with the tip protruding from his back.

"Did you manage to take him down...... eh?

The demon has the nucleus of the demon in its chest (heart) position, so much so that it must. Demon nuclei are one of the materials that symbolizes demons, but just because they have been damaged or destroyed while they are alive does not mean that the loss of demon nuclei = the death of demons (damaged shards can lead to death or die from a destroyed impact). But the undetected demons change things a little bit, and the loss of the Demon Nucleus = death. The theory that this is because it is replacing the nucleus of the demon with the heart is powerful, but we do not know the details.

With that in mind, I crushed most of the torso of every demonic nucleus in "Ground Lance," but Rich was trying to get through the "Ground Lance," which was penetrating his chest, without showing how he would suffer.

"Shit! Jeanne, get down!

"What?"

I was distracted by the sight in front of me, and when I realized it was just before Rich launched the attack. Rich was cleverly preparing himself for magic so that he wouldn't be distracted by me while acting (...) to unplug his chest 'Ground Lance'.

Jeanne seemed to have no idea what I was talking about for a moment, but still, as she was reflexively told, she lay down on the ground with her head in her arms.

Rich's unleashed magic was dirt magic mimicking a spear similar to the 'Ground Lance' I fed him, smaller in size than mine, but instead the number was over ten.

"'Earthwall'!" Earthwall "!

I responded to the dirt spear coming at me twice in a row. Most soil spears that flew were crushed by hitting 'Earthwall' or trying to chew it up from the bottom, but I couldn't drop the soil spears that were flying in front of me, so I cut them off with a knife......

"Oops!

"Tenma!"

A shock from the side made me dance the universe.

Rich traveled hidden in the Earth Wall that I created and flew the same magic from the side as Earth Ball.

It was the left arm that hit the magic, but the compressed mass of dirt hit it at a considerable rate. My arm bones are shattered, and a few ribs are broken. It just doesn't feel like a broken rib is stung in your lungs or heart, and it's not an injury that will kill you if you don't treat it right now.

Rich's move earlier, not surprisingly fast, was clearly different from his dull move until then. That led to my alarm and caused so much damage.

If Rich is still hiding the bills, it's dangerous to leave room in the present state and act on them until later. Squeeze all your power here and now. But it seems more likely that you will survive if you take down Rich.

"Jeanne! Come by me!

"Wow, okay!

At the same time I called Jeanne and threw Little Wu Wan over Rich's skull. Rich looked more hasty than ever before, crossing his arms trying to protect his skull from the impending Xiaowu Wan. Although Xiao Wumaru was unable to pierce Rich's skull, he sealed Rich's movements by making sure he was caught in the gap between the bones of his crossed arms.

"I knew you were hiding it there (...)"

If you don't have a nucleus in your chest, you thought the possibility of remaining was in your skull. I know it's safer to protect it with a skull that can hide the demonic nucleus softly than with a skull that can protect it with a skull. But I've never heard of moving my demon nucleus, and if it is, it means that Rich is more of a monster than I thought.

"Hey, hey, Tenma!

"Quiet! Make sure you bury your face on me!

Suddenly Jeanne was surprised when she held Jeanne, who came by her side, but made her obey in a strong tone. Seeing Jeanne obey my words,

"'Tempest'!

Activated my biggest trump card.

In a tornado that gradually grows stronger, Rich, who was sealed in motion by a small whale, is swallowed without exchanging, and he endures with his body low when he is not allowed to fly.

"'Tempest F2'!

More powerful, Rich crawls to the ground, grabbing and stomping on the stones that were nearby with his unfettered arms. On such a rich were flights of stones and trees caught in 'Tempest'.

Almost like when I was a dragon zombie, it felt like I could wind up in flying stones and trees, but the limit between me and Jeanne was close.

I don't have to worry about getting caught up in stones and trees because I'm at the center of Tempest, but I'm getting more pain in my left half of the body from the effects of changes in barometric pressure, and it's not about the outer periphery, but there's a lot of impact coming to us.

"Jeanne, bear with me a little longer." Tempest F3 "!

Rich's body finally rose as the dragon zombie he defeated up to the power he had endured critically in the past. 'Tempest' is more powerful than it used to be, and even though it's too different in size for dragon zombies and riches in the first place, it was surprising that it endured so far.

But that wasn't the only surprise. Rich is still in shape when he says he's caught in a storm and screwed up by stones and trees.

He seemed to be a comparable monster to a dragon zombie in a way that goes further on than I thought.

"Te, nma... no more, I can't..."

Looks like Jeanne's limits were ahead of Rich's.

"Jeanne, if you stop Tempest, close your ears, close your eyes, open your mouth and lower yourself."

Jeanne answered with a blue face, moving her neck up and down to my words.

"Three, two, one... now!

When she gave the signal in anticipation of the timing, Jeanne lay down on the ground as she was told. I lay low on the ground. When I bound myself to surround Jeanne, I set my aim on Rich, who began to rise and fall high in the sky,

"Fall......" Takemikazchi "!

I activated magic.

"Takemikazuchi" is a magic named after the Thunder God and the Sword God. Its power surpasses "Tempest" and is so great that it is possible to defeat dragon zombies with one blow if you can hit them properly. But on top of the hassle involved in its activation, it won't be powerful unless the conditions are right. The condition is that there is a cloud in the sky, mixing magic with that cloud and charging it.

This time, the activation conditions were met by mixing magic with the surrounding clouds collected by Tempest and the clouds made of changes in barometric pressure.

And there is one last important element. It's about 'hitting' Rich, the target.

"Takemikazchi" is my magic, so some control is possible, but at the same time it has properties as lightning, so I threatened to fall into something higher than the target. That's why I waited until Rich rose high in the sky at Tempest.

"Takemikazchi", as I thought, hit me rich from above. At that moment of activation, even though the awesome flashes and shocks were emitting around the rich, closing his eyes and making hiccups with his hands, his vision was filled with white, and his eyes were out of focus even when the flashes subsided. Hurry up and use the healing magic on your eyes, the first thing you saw when your vision returned was what Rich looked like when he was struck and worn out by 'Takemikazchi' at the moment he clashed to the ground.

Rich clashed to the ground and the bone from his chest down was shattered, but the bone on it remained like a bust with his arms crossed in front of his skull.

"Yaba..."

Though my consciousness was about to fly again and again, I ate my teeth and explored how Rich was doing. Rich hasn't shown any signs of movement, but he could be pretending to be dead. So in an attempt to see the reaction, I decided to get just a little closer and then pick up the stone at my feet and throw it at Rich. But I couldn't stomp because I was in a flimsy state, and the recoil nearly turned me upside down.

"Danger!"

Jeanne supported me on the verge of flipping over, but Jeanne wasn't in full condition due to the shock of 'Takemikazchi' either, and we both got buttcakes on.

Even with all those gaps, Rich might really be dead because he didn't show any signs of moving, but he decided to ask Jeanne to go after Rich with a 'slingshot'.

Taking on my favor, Jeanne took off her aim a few times before striking the pebble brilliantly into Rich's skull. That's all I was in a hurry for targeting my skull, so if Rich is alive, there's got to be some reaction.

Looking at Rich with that in mind, his skull fell behind him the moment the pebble hit him. And as if that was the signal, the bones that remained collapsed like sand.

"Sounds like it's over..."

"Sounds like..."

When I was convinced Rich was doomed, I heard him calling me from afar.

When I looked in the direction where my voice was heard, I saw Grandpa flying in the sky and Solomon, plus Amur on Shiloumal's back. You're in such a hurry, you sound like you're shouting, but you can't hear anything but me and Jeanne's name.

The next moment I realized what those grandfathers looked like, it turned dark in front of me.
