Kuro no Maou

Episode 128: Four Battles

"Thank you, Sue."

"Dear each other, if you hadn't caught my attention so far, I wouldn't have been able to aim either."

Leaving all that behind, Mr. Sue disappeared again to melt into the background of the battlefield.

Wow, I can't go after him anymore if I'm a little out of my sight.

What is scary is the power of protection, or her strength?

"But it's awkward, it's going to be crunchy and wiped out."

I've retained a heavy knight, presumably the captain of the unit, but this riot doesn't seem to have that much morale or anything.

If we get into this mess and fight, we won't be able to retreat from it.

"It hurts and I wonder what time it's been so scratched..."

For now, I will focus more on healing than on thinking about the war situation.

Even though he is not a warrior, he has fought the Heavy Knight Squad repeatedly for unscrupulous melee battles, but only for that matter is he covered in slaughter wounds all over his body on the enemy blade.

This' Devil's Embrace (Bafomet Embrace) 'prevents it if the blade hits lightly, but it only works to reduce the damage somewhat if you eat a blow of martial arts on a boulder.

The only healing magic I have if I get injured (?) is instantly preventing the wound with jelly black magic with 'physical filling' that is, deceiving and deceiving battles while minimizing bleeding.

But I had no choice but to do this, because I knew it, and I had some calculations that I could fight with, so I went in without hesitation.

The formula is Lily's special "Fairy Spirit Potion".

It is only an assault tactic if you think you can instantly recover a large wound with this one.

"Speaking of which, don't use it for the first time, I don't know how much -"

What I want to take out is a small bag, unlike the potion, 'fairy spirit pills' are powdered.

Unseal it gently and spread the bag, it is packed with white sugar-like powder that emits sparkling light inside.

The light emitted is very similar to that eye-friendly white luminescence that covers Lily's complexion.

But I don't have time to squeeze and observe here and now, I just put the powder in my palm and rub it straight into the wound.

"Whoa, that's awesome. Here, the pain's pulling away."

The effect, as it correctly appeared in the words, disappears rather than causes pain at once from the moment it touches the wound.

The black magic filled with physical fillings also completed its healing effect in one fly, and the scar regenerated completely.

In addition, I feel the fatigue accumulated in my body and the roots blow away.

"He's definitely a panacea, thanks Lily"

(- You're welcome, I'm glad Chrono is happy for you)

A voice that suddenly echoes in my head, can't possibly be misheard, and the Lord of Voices belongs to Lily, who should be fighting the Heavenly Horse Knight Troop over it.

"What's wrong with you bothering to communicate with me?

I'm telling you to refrain from communicating during the fight, I just have a bad feeling about it.

(You're getting a little awkward.)

Apparently, the hunch is medium.

"What happened?

(The Tenma Knight Squad apparently noticed the time limit for my escort and didn't attack for the expiration of time.

So far, there's nothing better than to keep staring at each other until my protection runs out.)

"... right"

It has the advantage of being able to definitely hold off during the protection effect time depending on what you think, but it's just a little awkward that you can't force your opponent to wear out by fighting Lily.

"How long will the protection last?

("Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)" won't last another ten minutes.

There are only two more scrolls of dragon-skinned paper (scroll), so if you use it to activate the protection, the rest is about 40 minutes in total.)

"In less than an hour, an intact Heavenly Horse Knight Squad will attack you."

(Yeah)

"Okay, I can't help it, just hold it off for a full hour."

(Copy that, but are you okay over there?

"I can't do it, but if we don't do something about it, we're done with Alsace."

(Yes... then Chrono, don't be too impotent)

"I don't promise, but let's just say I figured it out"

And communication with Lily is interrupted.

"You're getting really awkward..."

On the current Alsace defensive line, it can be divided into four main battle situations.

The first is the battle between our assault unit and the heavy knight unit.

The second is the sky where Lily and the Tenma Knights continue to stare at each other.

The third is a shootout between the Sorcerer Squad and Simmons, who carry out backup shooting in the Alliance.

The fourth is Mo's machine gun and infantry assault defense, which is carried out in front of the wall.

These four are currently exposed to overwhelming battle power differences while still retaining miraculous antagonism.

This is made possible by Lily, who stops the Tenma Knight, a blackened guild that boasts stubbornness that is not even vicious if it is magical to a lower to intermediate degree, a machine gun that can unilaterally eliminate infantry, and all adventurers fighting with death.

But it's also only temporary, and there's every chance that you'll be chopped up in no time after you've exposed just a few gaps.

No, if we keep fighting at this rate, Alsace will surely fall.

"Are we the only ones who can cover it up?"

Our opponent, the Heavy Knight Squad, if we can crush this completely, we'll have a winning chance.

You can cut straight into the Mage Squad, or you can go back to the fence and be thorough on defense, especially if I can do crucible fire with demon bullets like last time, it would be possible to push back an infantry assault at once.

We must defeat the Heavy Knights here at all costs if we are to defend today.

If we can't do that, there's nothing more to defeat than to be swallowed up by this overwhelming force.

"Pretty heavy knights, I think."

If you turn your gaze across the river, you'll see a bunch of the same gear as the armor that got bloody and slapped you into the squid and rowed out this way.

"Is there another unit..."

Breathe out unintentionally.

It took a lot of sacrifice to finally push the Heavy Knights to the brink of devastation.

Nevertheless, the enemy has naturally rolled out new troops.

Even the numbers are down, and the members of the assault force, including me, are quite small and injured.

Finally, the two letters of total annihilation are becoming realistic and pressuring me.

"But we have to do it. - Hmm?

The arrow tip, which was ready to challenge the Heavy Knights again, a piece of telepathic communication crystal that I had sneaked into my pocket informed me of the interception of the message with light and vibration.

I instantly realize that something unexpected must have happened to communicate here.

Following Lily, she responds quickly to communications, even as she becomes deeply anxious that something unforeseen may have happened once again.

"What's up?

"Mr. Chrono, it's tough -"

Its contents, spoken through a piece of crystal,

"What... and..."

It was desperate to poke defeat at me.
