Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai
Episode 180: Best Friends Reunion
A magnificent man with blue-white skin and a sluggish long body. It was a pitch-black cloak that wrapped itself around, standing up with aristocratic elegance, but its face was like a devil's brake with sharp fangs stripped out...... no, if I were to express myself more accurately, Count Dracula, but I looked like I should have called it.
"Ha... ha... did you manage to take him down..."
The dracula was cut off by the "Holy Sword of Light (Cross Caliber)" that I waved, and vanished into ashes so that it could be purified into its divine blue and white light.
It was a long fight, but now we destroy the Dark City boss as well. Attack complete.
"Brother!"
"Oh, cherry blossoms, I did it, I could take down the boss by myself - oh, don't hug me all of a sudden"
The cherry blossoms that rushed in first came to me with a feeling of fatigue. I managed to take it, but it's pretty worn out, so it's plain tight.
"Because... I can't believe I'm challenging the boss alone, it's just lame..."
"Sorry to bother you. But I have to be stronger."
This time, I challenged Dracula, the boss of this dark city by myself.
Dracula knew he was a formidable enemy over that four-armed gogma when he first challenged him.
First, superhuman physical abilities comparable to those of me in "The Brave." Power and speed can be called almost mutual. Then, using clear swordsmanship. That, too, is masterclass acumen.
Dracula wields only one slender servel, but he carries out a heavier slash than he looks. Besides, the sabel itself has become a fairly powerful magic weapon.
An aura of bright red colour reminiscent of blood swirled all the time, and the sole stretched out as a blade, or turned into a blade of red wind and flew in. Not only was it slaughtered, but it was quite hilarious when he stretched like a whip and was attacked in an irregular orbit to sweep away a wide range.
Others have stretched out shadows and summoned tons of black spear-like things, as well as countless bat-shaped spirits from their capes… all undoubtedly the most powerful bosses ever fought, using powerful and diverse moves and magic.
That's why it's worth defeating.
Mastery skills
"Undoubled Sword Dance (Liot Blazer)": Continuous Attack, Speed, and Great Enhancement. A series of kills like a streamlined dance kills and lays down numerous enemies.
"Thousand Mile Disease (Grand Walker)": greatly enhanced travel speed. Run through a thousand miles and even trample down a road without a path.
"Shrinking Land": Higher skill in Aosamu Martial Arts. Stuffing the time without understanding the movement gives the illusion that the ground has shrunk.
"Ethereal Gong Wave": A high-density magical aura mixed with more powerful light attributes and the life force of the brave.
Acquired Skills
"Sacred Blood Sacrament": inflicts a strong purifying ability, freed with a drop of holy blood muscle.
"Multiple Chain Summoning Groups": Magic Groups Specializing in the Summoning of Lower Spirits. At the same time, he can deploy numerous subpoenas and serve a large number of lower spirits.
"White Shadow Spear": Creates a white spear, materialized (materialized) with the magic of light attributes. It can be protruded arbitrarily from a place where it has been allowed to project light emitted by itself.
The experience itself of defeating a powerful boss can be a great force... but the horrible thing about 'brave man' 's ability is that he also remembers his opponent's moves, magic, etc.
Mastery skills and acquisition skills, images that should be called blurred into my brain, moves that I newly learned, etc. are categorized as either of them.
Apparently, there is a difference between mastery skills being the type that I have acquired as a result of my own combat experience, and acquisition skills being the type that I remember my opponent's ability to use.
So there are a lot of moves that I have knitted in battle and a lot of moves in Aoshi Stream for mastery skills.
On the other hand, all the acquired skills are still very similar to the moves and magic that Dracula was using. There seems to be no "brave man" on the boulder treating the blade of blood or the powers like dark magic as they are. It feels like a light attribute by nature, something like it reproduces similar effects.
A bunch of new skills show me how easy and strong they have become... not enough, not enough of this stuff yet.
"Congratulations, Yudo. Anyway, I'm glad you got your boss down safely."
"Thank you, Commissioner. Listen to my wagamama."
"I've been watching, and I've thought about joining the war many times. After all, it's not a good idea to leave Yodo alone with the boss fight."
"I'll be fine. I'll always win next time."
"Yodo, you might be able to win... but can you think about how we feel just watching in silence?
"Ugh."
When they say it, it's weak. Because there is a cherry blossom that is currently in progress and I can't leave with it in my arms, I feel it even more.
"Sorry...... I knew you would"
I feel somewhat calm, too, because it was after I conspired against Dracula.
In the end, I was in a hurry. I haven't been able to recover from the shock of losing Rayna at all. I just might have been running away from reality by dealing with the mighty enemy in front of me alone.
"Though I know it's from the cherry blossoms, we're one of them. I need you to rely more."
"It's not that I don't believe in everyone... I can't help but be afraid to lose someone anymore"
"But that's the same for us. I don't want anyone to die anymore, that's why we all fight together."
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm only gonna do this once."
"Yeah, it's okay. I'm sure we saw Ayase's death, too, and we were terrified of fighting. So there's a feeling that the boss and Yudo left it to you... to each other."
Right, right. I'm not the only one who was shocked by Rayna's death. As a matter of course, with such a brutal death in sight, the cherry blossoms, of course, can't even feel anything from the chairmen of the committee.
I was only thinking about myself to be noticed now. Really, that's pathetic.
"Then, from now on, let's all join forces and attack."
"Oh, right, Aoshi. Next time, I won't be backing you. Let's do a good fight."
"I'll do my best, Aemon!
"Come on, even little birds work hard!
Tomorrow, Natsukawa and Little Bird Fun answered my call with pleasure. Thank you, you still believe me for imitating pity.
"All right, then let's go. I'm transferring. Everybody gather around."
In this way, everyone gathers in the middle of the hall with the only cores left behind by Dracula, who disappeared as ash.
Size is enough to fit in your palm, or Dracula's core is a beautiful crystal that gleams like ruby and bright red. Perhaps it is of high quality because it is more pure than normal or because it is more intensely concentrated in magic.
When such dracula cores add more radiance, the metastatic magic formations also work in tandem to shed light -
"... n"
If you open your eyes, a square with well-known green trees and fountains. The metastasis succeeded successfully.
It's a feeling of metastasis that I'm already used to, but shortly afterwards I open my eyes to surprise.
- Yudo.
"Ryuichi... isn't that Ryuichi!
Before me, as usual, I stood honorably on the top of the Buddha, looking like my best friend.
Then it was after plenty of two hours that I was able to talk to Ryuichi slowly.
"Uh, I'm tired..."
"Don't say that. Even the chairman finally met Ryuichi."
I was reunited with my best friend, and so on, but the next moment it was the chairman of the committee who pushed me away and jumped into Ryuichi.
Well, that's right. He seems to intend to keep it from himself, but the chairman of the committee likes Ryuichi. If you've finally been able to safely reunite with your thoughts, it's natural to hold them without waving your eyes.
There was a lot of talk, even for me, about giving up Ryuichi's opponent to the chairman of the committee. He was the President of the Commission, who had always acted calmly and temperamentally, but he was crying heavily, and the first was almost speechless.
Does this mean you will be impressed? So Ryuichi, don't look so obviously annoying, give him a gentler hug.
Anyway, it was such a subtly temperature-differentiated, inspiring reunion, but now the President of the Commission has fallen asleep because of the crying too.
Everyone else, for now, goes to rest mode and is relaxed.
Me and Ryuichi sat in the corner of the square with two men, away from the relaxing women.
"Thanks, Yudo. You took care of Ryoko."
"No, I'm the one who took care of you. Because you have the chairman of the committee, and I've always been helped."
"Right. Well, I can't get along with you, 'cause I don't have a wax."
"But I also put a lot of strain on the chairman of the committee. It was really nice to meet Ryuichi."
"Hmm, I wonder. I can't believe it's a miraculous reunion, you idiot. I honestly don't feel believable. I don't know what kind of karaki... no, I don't care now"
I am honestly delighted to have been able to rendezvous with Ryuichi, but I also know what it's like to feel something man-made.
The fact that we just moved to Rayna's murder scene in the first place is too much to be done with a coincidence.
Transfer of all our classes, then dungeon attack. Isn't it all just dancing on someone's palm? I had a faint feeling about that suspicion... but Ryuichi is right, I can't help thinking about it now.
"Even Ryuichi must have come this far by properly protecting Mr. Langtang and the others"
"Nothing, they just came about it on their own. I didn't do anything in particular."
By saying it like this, I mean I recognize their power. Ryuichi has a twisted spot, so I honestly wouldn't say that.
Though there wasn't much interaction in the class, I'm just a little relieved that three flashy ladies are safe: Lando, Nogumiya, Fangsaki and. This way, when I find out that I have a classmate who survives properly, I also have hope.
"Still, it's good to have someone safe."
"Ha, it's not good... Yodo, who's dead?
Ryuichi takes a carefree sigh, but a keen eye to ask. That seems to see through everything.
"You're no match for Ryuichi."
"Fool, you're easier on your face than you think on your own. You're not gonna notice."
I was going to bring it back a little bit, but it was.
"Nothing, I'm not gonna hide it. Instead, Ryuichi, I want you to listen."
"I'm sorry to hang out with your damp confession, but I can just ask you."
I smiled bitterly at the same story... but when I opened my mouth, I felt terribly bitter.
"I have heard that several classmates have been sacrificed. Among them, he died in front of me... Hiroki and Raina."
Hiroki, who should be called my other best friend, was killed by a boss gov with a demon knife when the dungeon offense still started. The shock of seeing him as a corpse without a neck slammed me into something called the real horror of this dungeon.
But I didn't know that such an unbroken Hiroki's death would still seem like a bad death.
"Hiro lost his life fighting the boss. Protect that and Little Bird Play tomorrow..."
"Right. So, who killed Ayase?
How far is Ryuichi discerning? The mouth is full of certainty, as you know the very roots of the pain I have in my heart are there.
"Mouth or crossroads?
"My classmate killed me," you didn't say.
"I told you, you're easy to understand. Not at all... Soitz is a resentful face."
Not the demon that attacked me and is normal, not the boss that always has a high risk of death attached to it... do you even call it hatred because it was killed by the same classmate?
Sure, when I see him again, I'm not sure I can contain my intent to kill him.
"... Peach River. Raina was killed by the Peach River."
So much so that I can see my voice trembling with nature and anger emotions.
I resent my own weakness for failing to protect Rayna... but still, it's not a wack that my hatred for the Peach River, who was the killer of her and who also smeared her body, will disappear.
"Right, Peach River? He..."
Ryuichi gave such a look for a moment, as if convinced somewhere, and soon, again, sighed troublesome.
"Yodo, shut up about that. Don't let the others talk. It'll be a hassle."
"What do you mean? Ryuichi, do you know anything about Tao River"
"For you, it could be the enemy that killed Ayase... but for another guy, Takagawa is an important otoko"
"What do you mean - no way, someone in those three is the girlfriend of the Peach River?
"More than that, it's wild. I just found out, it's not gonna be a good thing."
"Ryuichi, are you... sheltering Peach River"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm me. If you don't get in my way, I'm not gonna bother sticking my neck in the other guy's situation."
"... right, right. Because that's who you are, Ryuichi."
I've been with Raina since kindergarten and Ryuichi has been dating for a long time. But Ryuichi and Raina have little contact.
It went worst with Ryuichi, who was a sign and an attitude that suppressed others from a young age, and Rayna, who was pure and scared. I know your face and your name, but we've never seen each other, where you're exchanging words.
For Ryuichi, Raina has just known for a long time and has nothing more than a mere class mate relationship. Dry against her death, Ryuichi's character also naturally goes hand in hand.
"Better than that, Yudo. Hey, help me out."
"What do you want me to do?"
"I have a hell of a boss ahead of me. I can't do anything by myself."
"What?"
I guess even Ryuichi is a pretty good opponent to say this... No wait, in the first place I have no idea what kind of vocation Ryuichi is and how strong he is right now.
"That's probably what you guys have been rendezvous about here"
"Duh, what do you mean - I mean, you're going now?
"Naturally, I'm tired of waiting."
"No, we're just after the boss fight."
"I guess you've been kicking it all by yourself. Let's go anyway. He and I have to actually fight each other, you don't know."
"Ah, he's totally, totally helpless."
You don't usually care, because sometimes if you care about it, it's forceful.
But I'm very concerned about the boss monster that makes Ryuichi say so far. Which way, if you don't defeat that boss, you can't go ahead, so there's nothing more to it than challenge.
