Kuro no Maou

Episode 565: Trial Tactics

"Oh, nice to meet you, Nell"

Unexpectedly, I called him out of call. Nell said he was pretending to be the first person to see me.

But you act like that, and you say, "I'm a bummer," and you think it's kind of like Nell to do a weird greeting in a thoughtful way, and I mean, my self-control's loose, and I guess I've called it off.

Somehow, when I have to see you again like this... it's surprisingly okay, rather than happy, don't win. After all, I wondered if trauma would even fall into the sensation of being decided, but my mind didn't even seem naïve that far.

Or is this the guy who correctly says "time solves it"? I see, the magic of time is great.

Because I realized that, I was about to stare at Nell in the same outfit as the last time I saw him. How rude is it to watch too much cancer just because you wear a full face helmet? He's going to be pissed off by some super handsome guy like a white knight standing next to Nell.

Celis, I'm totally new to the beautiful boy I named, but I've heard the name and rumors for a long time. Kai has told me that he is a magical swordsman of comparable skill to Nero, and more recently Chris has asked me about his battles.

Exceptional sword skill and numerous martial arts. And as a magical swordsman, he says he exercises a variety of magic around the wind, which is a good attribute, a finished way of fighting. In addition to his already first-rate ability to name him, he seems to have even more hidden secret abilities... but as far as I'm concerned, his visuals catch my attention first rather than his hands like that.

neutral beauty, embodies the word. Blah, when I put myself in front of him like this, I don't know if it's a man or a woman. It's called Simon, who misunderstood his gender, and he's still good with the mysterious Mia. Yes, it's horrible because there are people in this other world who have a serious, indistinguishable level of appearance for it.

Face or voice, I still can't tell at all, but still my sharp sixth sense is about to complain that I'm a man, because of the Celis atmosphere. I can feel it, I don't have it, a real handsome aura.

If you do anything rude to Nell, he says, "I won't let the princess touch you with one finger!" or something like that sounds so cool.

But now, fortunately, there is no mention of me calling Nell aside. The princess of one country could not be summoned, and she seemed to pass through magnificently. I'm not kidding, such as rubbing it with such crap in a situation like this.

Well, there's a lot to think about, but let's just focus on Chaossic Lim's opponent now anyway.

First of all, I succeeded in having "Darkness" eaten as a counter without turning around in "The Demon King of Fire (Overdrive)"... but he's almost intact. I can tell by the bargain.

Yes, this sensation must be the shock-reactive armor (reactive armor) used by the greedgore. By squeezing in and bursting all the sand iron that was wrapped in his arms, he tried to stop the martial arts he unleashed with the power of the Demon King.

I blew it flashy, but that's all. There was no reason for him to get hurt.

"- Hasn't that blow gone through a lot of damage?"

Bitter, seris crushes.

Rolling up to the edge of the arena, the chaossic rim rises loosely as he gathers the flashy splashy sand iron into himself again, turning it into a black breeze. As I expected, there's not a scratch on his body - is there? From the palm that would have received the blade, I could see a dripping potato and a bloody Shizuku. A definite slaughter mark was engraved on the left hand side of the living body, with a slight slice in the right hand side of the machine.

Hmm, I thought it was completely deactivated, but I still feel like 'neck slit' pushed me in in the mood rather than my martial arts improved.

In response, the gripping pattern shivered burly.

Think of it, his first prey is larspun. I could only let him slash one of his right arms then, but this time, I want him to cut off his neck as the name suggests. That's a snowflake fight, Senior.

"Again, if you don't do something about the sand iron armor first, the attack isn't going to make sense"

Nell also already knows how troublesome this defensive ability is. How much does it not fit to meet Matomo from the front?

So it comes to mind first, as the easiest way to defeat inherently, is to attack with the magic of state anomaly recovery that disarms parasites (parasites), or with the magic of purification systems. But how this didn't work out so well was actually clear in previous battles.

It is also conveyed to the Adventurer Guild that Dark Elf's Druid Troops tried various things in the battle at Farren, which appeared next to Sparda, but did not work. When I heard this report, I was disappointed to learn that a backwashing strategy was impossible.

So one shot at Nell's "Bad Reverse Exile," not.

"But in front of that regenerative force, is there nothing better than targeting a slight gap just after a powerful attack?

And you'd think, Mr. Sellis.

"I'll peel his sand iron."

"What, you can do that -"

"Okay! Nice to meet you, Mr. Chrono!

Nell comes out with a face full of jerking off, blocking in front of Sellis, who leans in suspicious gaze.

Oh, when I see this face, I really think it sounds like Nell. That's what she always does, burns her care.

And I didn't have time to be immersed in sentiment.

Nell has experience in Ischia, so he knows exactly how I defeated Greedgore. I guess that's why he gave me an O.K. for instant answers.

"We'll leave the attack to the two of us, okay?

"Of course, leave it to me!

"Hey, Princess Nell, you decide that on your own -"

"I don't have time to ask! Don't worry, Mr. Krono will do what he says. Absolutely obedient! Nice, Celis!!

"Yes..."

You're right, but I think there's a few more ways to say it, Nell. Look, Celis is a little tearful.

Even for me, I didn't actually see Nell fight, so I have a lot of resistance to letting him play the offensive role. To me, she's still definitely stronger in the healer (Priest) image.

Really, can I leave it to you? There are strays.

But now let's believe it. Even if Nell doesn't believe me, I believe Nell.

"" Concentration enhancement "," Attribute enhancement "," Element high boost "

and reinforced magic support for Nell flying in at this time. Awesome. If you do this to a believing arrow tip, it will boost your confidence.

The boulder is a rank 5 'Healer (Priest)'. On top of an abbreviated chant (short spelling) that can be almost done in one word, activate the two simultaneously. Concurrent activation is difficult even in my area of expertise. I don't want to use it very often either. Magic-activated 'speed' and 'number' are just high technology that deserves recognition.

With the help of an unexpected Nell, I'm finally going into magic activation, too.

Just as the chaossic rim also set up the assault. And then let's hope the two of you get along well.

"You're ready, sheep"

"Perfect, sir!

The display of the helmet shows the sheep smiling and up and the information on the finished workmanship visualized.

Yeah, it's still half the place, but for one thing, that'll be enough.

"All right, let's go -" Snake King Banned (Hydra Bind) ""

A pitch-black serpent with nine necks appeared breaking the floor of a white stone tile. My black magic, worthy of Hydra's name, mimics a multi-headed dragon with a head big enough for humans and others to drink lightly and round. Maybe the magic didn't activate, it also looks like it summoned a real monster.

The head of a serpent without eyes is designed to feel inorganic, but each piece of black scales has a glow and some vivid slippery texture.

Such 'Snake King Banned (Hydra Bind)' was the first demon (Bind Arts) depths that could be reproduced by originally merging with Lily and borrowing her magical arithmetic abilities...... it was worth the practice and managed to cling to solo activation.

Though only for a moment, it is immensely binding, tying Saliel, who fully unleashes the power of the Apostle. I wanted to make it something.

Compared to when a fairy merge (Excelion) on a boulder, it would be inferior in size, power, and accuracy, but for now it would be something like a point of extension. This time he is made to have a higher ability than usual because he also has the benefit of enhanced magic.

In order to activate him, I've been preparing to go down by spreading blackening on the ground under the stone tile ever since I landed in the arena. In a separate frame (window) that floats on the display of vision, a 3DCG-like stereoscopic image mimicking this arena is shown, color-coded in black and white so that the dominant area of blackening can be distinguished by area and depth, both at a glance. What a convenience.

"Capture him!"

The nine necks that appeared to surround the chaossic rim in a circle strike the prey simultaneously.

Don't lick me, but I made a sharp squeal, and Chaossic Lim waved his burning left arm, hosting the power of anger.

Dogan, and a severe blow sound, first one, Hydra's head plays flying. The first head, which approached with a large mouth directly from the front, vanished to the middle of his neck as he swayed black particles instead of a blood splash, sinking all the way to the ground without de force.

What forms the black magic hydra is the blackened sand. If you think all the flesh of a giant serpent is made of sand, even one head should have a tremendous weight, but it was like even a plastic toy serpent hit him, lightly buzzing him off.

It's not a wack with an 'angry fist' on Dada. With that proud arm strength, Chaossic Lim beats down the second and third heads as they continue to stand.

But there is no magic in the fist the monster wields. It's just immense as the destructive power of a single blow, but I don't envisage the one, two, or even further ahead that unleashed that punch.

Don't lick it, monster. What I deal with every day, as opposed to three hands away, is a former, strongest warrior so advanced that I'm likely to see a future in a few seconds.

My "Serpent King Banned (Hydrabind)" is a magic to capture the Seventh Apostle Saliel. Try to capture as easily as you can, such as a move that just keeps hitting you with your strength.

- Gao ooh!!

Anger beats screaming more than pain.

At the same time as the fourth head was smashed, the fifth head gallopingly stood up his fangs and scraped away the defenseless back of the chaossic rim.

The serpent's fangs are inhibited by the fur of the warcraft and do not tear the flesh apart. However, according to the original purpose, the devoured part was made to scrape the sand iron thoroughly.

Glittering crimson fur peeks into a pitch-black rift. And the sand iron that was covering up there will never come back to normal again.

It would be a direct operation of the earthly attribute, but it would be an electromagnet of the lightning attribute, but it would not return the sand iron it took. Hydra's fangs have the ability to blacken the full output through sheep. All sharpened sand iron is swallowed by Hydra and stored straight into the shadow space (shadow gate) just as it enters the stomach.

I knew that with semi-fired power, he wouldn't even be blind to it. So the blackened sword for the Devil's Sword (Sword Arts) is minimal, and with the premise of taking away sand and iron, it has come to create quite a vacancy in shadow space (Shadowgate).

Come on, let me fumble, have that delicious iron of greed (green metal).

"Now!

"Ha!"

Don't miss losing sand iron armor, Nell and Sellis rush out. They both flesh to the chaossic rim in a flash as they pull the remnants.

In the meantime, the sixth and seventh heads, which strike from behind and from left to right, bit the warcraft giant and devoured the power of absolute defense.

"" Duplex/Wearing ""

"" Disease Wind Flashes (Sonic Elslash) ""

Like a flash of light, the two martial arts shine brilliantly.

A white coat of design like Nell's dragon pierces the side of the chaossic rim, and Sellis' swinging whirlwind whirling white blade cleaves his shoulder.

When the bloodshed bloomed, it was now time for the Warcraft to bark in pain.

But deep pursuit was dangerous - and that didn't seem like something I needed to be aware of. The two retreated at about the same time.

Shortly after, a storm of lightning struck a dozen meters around the chaossic rim. The right hand of the machine, which houses the dazzling purple flash, was raised high, and the range of lightning from it, the attack magic, almost burst into no-time.

The two of them were separated from all the siege attacks of a thunderbolt at an exquisite time, but Chaossic Lim has quickly set a switching goal to a focused attack that binds violet electricity, just because he won't let the hate prey that hurt him escape.

The polar thunder twirls like a whip, chasing them both. A lightning whip wielded at the will of the phantom catches both bodies - but they are good. Sellis was completely out of timing and taking it with a sabel blade.

Nell on the other hand, what the hell... the thunder that hit him suddenly twisted in a strange direction. At first glance, it was like paying off with the back of your right hand, but to do so, the thunderbolts behaved strangely.

Naturally, lightning attributes have intangible properties. You can pinch things and block them, but things like grabbing them and bending them, stretching them, etc are physically impossible.

But what seems to have done it is not so much the illusion of the eye as the strength of Nell or the ability of that white cage hand.

Whatever it was, it was enough to understand Nell's high prowess as an avant-garde, just from evading the attack, and seeing defense and a series of operations. I can count on this. I trained hard, that's all I'm saying. Honestly, if I confine myself to fighting, I feel like I can unilaterally bump into it.

Don't worry, we'll cover you like a guard.

"Demon Bullets (Barrett Arts)/Howitzer Artillery (Grenade Burst)"

The convenient bombing attack magic I took care of in the Battle of Gratney Oct, but now with my full armour, I don't have to mourn for lack of power as I did then.

It wasn't The Grid, it was Dual Eagle. Behind the horizontal double gunpoint is loaded with real bullets made by the Stratos Blacksmith Workshop, warheads with fiery demon stones specific to the fire attribute. Take this as my 'howitzer shelling (grenade burst)' and pour in pseudo-fire attributes to the limit even further - pull the trigger.

Don, and the roar and the stupid big muzzle flash that even the cannon blew away blink. Running between moments, such as a distance of dozens of meters, the two bullets released burst into his right hand, which continues to emit a blast of thunder.

Big bang. I can play flashy flames and smoke that might help, but I don't think I can destroy my right arm, a real enchanted golem thing to this extent.

Fact is, a chaossic rim that instantly reveals itself by pretending to explode flames. Its right arm is only slightly coaled, almost intact.

But now the lightning strike on both of them was forcibly interrupted.

Nell and Sellis don't miss a chance to fight back. Evasive behavior turns and fleshes to chaossic limb again.

I also hit Hydra's head still alive, aiming for a gap where the big bang would hit her directly and shake her body slightly.

Goaaaaaaaaa!!

The roar of chaossic limbs echoes in the arena.

Blowing fire, shooting thunder, waving a fist wrapping both - and flirting with the angry, rambling guy in such a way that we didn't think it was an impromptu party.

I'll sharpen the sand iron, and you two will attack. Seeing out Chaossic Lim's counterattack and leaving. By trying to chase him to one side or the other, I'll cover and jam him. And look at the gaps again and add the offense - extended, I kept doing that.

If anyone is watching our fight over the TV screen, only HP might seem like a boring task that keeps sharpening high boss fights with chimatima and offense if they're in the game a lot. I have that experience, too. I can grasp the boss's motions and attack patterns in particular, and always stand around safely, but it only takes time to defeat them because of their high HP, a troublesome fight.

But you will understand how harsh this method of warfare can be if you go through the battle against real monsters in a different world where this fantasy is a reality. Or die before you understand.

We seem to be completely overwhelmed with chaossic limbs, but the truth is, if we allow a single direct hit, we will die instantly. Without dying, if cooperation is disturbed at all, if you misread the course of the battle, the war situation will be overshadowed in an instant.

This one must tease the instant attack storm with a single piece of paper, pay attention to the movement of his companions, and keep knocking his hands off the attack without rest. But the opponent wins if he hits even one shot. Most attacks can be prevented, and they don't die instantly.

We are forced to fight like a sweep, but for him, it must only be a troublesome disturber, a perception. We haven't hunted down the chaossic rim enough to drive him crazy.

Still, the battle was about to take one turning point.

"... it's time for the sand iron to peel off completely"

The giant body of the chaossic rim now shines in a completely crimson hue. The black sand iron is solidified around the heart chest and steep point around the neck, all you have to do is cover your whole body sparsely like a tiger stripe anymore.

For that matter, my shadow space (shadowgate) also contained a significant amount of sand iron.

It was to be expected that Chaossic Lim was carrying a huge amount of sand iron more than covering his own flesh. In fact, it is clear that he exercised more sand iron than he appeared because he had given sand iron to his body for minutes.

I don't even know if he uses spatial magic (dimension), or if he compresses and hoards it in his belly.

Even if I scraped away the sand iron with the Snake King Banned (Hydra Bind) many times, he tried to restore more and more armor. By releasing the inventory you hold, the chaossic rim has so far maintained its absolute power of defense, but at last that is also the limit.

"-Seris, I'll decide next!

"Yes!"

What you two wait for is the last moment when the sand iron is stripped.

Chaosic Lim keeps missing it from earlier, Nell and Sellis, chasing the two little prey with their blood-running eyes. While the avant-garde is drawing my attention, I will also be ready to use the last Snake King Banned (Hydra Bind).

"Sheep, regeneration is"

"All nine, complete!

In the meantime, I kept playing the black magic on Hydra's head, which had been booked and crushed many times by Chaossic Lim. It's just a big magic trick. I realize that my magic is diminishing with the fatigue that weighs my body.

However, if this is decided, 'Snake King Banned (Hydra Bind)' can be lifted and the rest fully committed to the attack.

Knowing that this was where I stomped, I squeezed my magic and completely regenerated the nine heads, all together to the chaossic rim.

Before the impending Hate Serpent, Chaossic Lim interrupts the attack on the two and strives to intercept them. Do you get used to dealing with boulders if you eat them many times?

The three heads flying from the front are shot down before filling in the intermission by a lightning strike unleashed by the right hand and a simultaneous attack of a fireball thrown by the left hand.

In the meantime, one approaching from left to right, is bounced to pieces with a fist waved while pulling the tail of thunder and flames. At the same time, fly on the spot and dodge the three that attack your back.

The chaossic rim falling from the jump crushed the head of Hydra as she lost sight of her target and passed.

I remember the chaossic limb that banned the Snake King from bondage (Hydrabind) in a flowing motion - good, that's the last one. If it would have taken a little longer, they would have totally cut it out.

I felt so relieved when I heard the chaossic rim scream in my ear.

The last remaining ninth head is entangled so that the real snake tightens its entire body to capture its prey.

Chaossic Lim flies, jumps, rolls, and storms like a fire on an arena, but Hydra, who crawls through her critical body, brilliantly snatches away the last sand iron, then wears off and vanishes into a worn black sand.

"I'm coming!

With the screams of a sharp Nell, the two finally approach the warcraft, which turned their whole body red and monochromatic.

It was Celis who preceded him. In a forward leaning position like crawling through the ground, he splendidly cut through the rigid arms of the chaossic rim and jumped into his nostrils. Inside both arms, which boast a great reach, we had reached a zero distance in the most dangerous safety zone, which only this blade could reach.

"-" The Gravity Connection (Gravity Field), "open it all!

It was the first magic I saw.

Like Lily's The Fairy Sect (Oracle Field), a glowing sphere of light appears enveloping Celis' entire body. But its brilliance is a dark and creepy shade mixed with black and purple.

By name, I manipulate gravity in any way, like...

"Phase (Phase)/Heaven (Negative Light)"

The giant body of the chaossic rim floats unnaturally. Super-weight flesh wrapped in dense bones, muscles, and metallic fur floated lightly as if it had become a balloon.

No, the array must have lightened gravity, not lighter body. I immediately realize that because I've seen the concept of 'gravity' and the fiction that uses it as an ability many times.

But I've never heard of it, such as the magic of manipulating gravity. But I just don't know, it was real. At least, it's not a major being.

So, I see... is this the hidden ability of the genius magic swordsman Celis?

While I was impressed, Chaossic Lim was bumping his hands and feet in the universe with a slightly hurried squeal, surprised by the discomfort of his own body that had suddenly occurred. And Celis is not dumb enough to hit an arm that swings like that.

Because the only magic that lightens gravity is the lower prep to pound in a blow all over you.

"Flip (Shift) - Ground (Heavy Plus) -" Tornado Fierce Wear (Tornado Erthrust) "Huh!!

All the wind whirling around the body also turns black while the servel held by Celis stains the same color as the 'Gravity Realm (Gravity Field)'.

Are you adding the force of gravity to the martial arts of the wind attribute?

Even masterclass martial arts with tremendous penetration add as much weight to the sword as a skinny sabel shouldn't hold.

The chaossic limb now felt its destructive power in its own belly.

- Gooooo!?

A gently warcrafted giant body is launched with a groaning short distressed voice.

It would be the effect of lighter gravity. They beat the devastating force downwards and blew it away.

Chaossic rim, which flies straight up with rocket-like momentum, also looked like a booster with dot-erupting blood from his abdomen.

Pretty deep, though not enough to die instantly. If that amount of bleeding, this time I might have really even decided on my gut.

But it can't be a frenzied monster opponent, such as loosening his hands to that extent.

A winged angel launches a chase to the undefended chaossic rim of the universe.

"-" Triplets/Disturbed Blooms ""

At a height of about ten metres above the ground, Nell burst the martial arts lodged in both fists as if he could really fly through the sky, spraying his white wings.

Stormy streak. Dozens, no, hundreds. Chaossic limb giants tremble on fists rolled out one after the other at an extraordinary speed. Bikun and his body bounce irregularly, presumably because he is infiltrated with a shockwave of magic in the same way as' set and thorough 'for every shot he is slapped into.

The fist storm, which continued to wield as if it continued indefinitely, came to a halt when lighter gravity finally began to pull the two bodies back together.

"" Sanno type/collapse ""

In the air, where the fall began loosely, Nell, cleverly flipped himself, grabbed the middle finger of the chaossic rim's left hand, as he took a man's arm.

Immediately after, the drop rate, which was supposed to be slower than normal, accelerated sharply. At an unstoppable speed, rather than momentum as if he had been crushed from the top by unseen force, Nell, who grabbed his finger, slammed Chaossic Lim's body into the arena.

The white tiles on the floor are shattered and dust rises as if it had happened in the explosion.

Celis and Nell have done a splendidly determined aerial combo, and the retreat has already been quickly completed from the explosion site where the chaossic rim crashed.

Subtle, Nell succeeded in brutally displaying a thousand-cut thick middle finger unconstitutionally thrown away.

Now, we've eaten two consecutive attacks on Moro, and now it looks like they're finally fatally wounded.

"Not yet!

Having already finished the Snake King Ban (Hydra Bind), I will also set you up to fold. You can't loosen your hand on an attack until you've completely stopped Chaossic Lim's breath.

The only thing I had in my hand was "Absolute grudge" and "Neck break". With "Darkness" all over him, now it's time to get his neck.

This is the perfect moment to stab Todome - the prediction was overshadowed by the mechanical sound of Bun, which resonated shortly afterwards.

Somewhere familiar, this sound... go first!

Gaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

From the smoking dust, a chaossic rim pops up screaming. Its body truly deserves the expression full-bodied creativity.

The belly was punched out in "Tornado Fierce (Tornado Erthrust)," the chest was ripped to a snag in "Triplets/Disturbance Rips," and by the last "Triple No-type/Collapse Drop," the giant tree-like left arm was twisted and bent. A normal person would have no crying vigor, just groaning and nodding in pain, a serious wound, but nevertheless, Chaossic Lim has launched an even harsher attack due to his extra vitality and willingness to burn rage.

It was the right arm of the enchanted golem that was shaken up. Unless it's an illusion in my eyes, only that palm looks slightly blurry.

I'm trembling. Yes, it's trembling.

The creepy tremor you hear tells me. This, he said, destroys things just by touching them, with the power of a threat.

Ultra-vibration grinding device, something like that? It seems that the ancient golem was fighting how noisy its opponents were to be mounted even with such a nasty snob.

Chaossic rim to come here and show off my new abilities, but I'm not willing to leave here either.

It will be difficult to take it or play it as it is because it is destroyed by tremor power just by touching it. I know Sariel might be able to do it, but I'm not sure I can handle it that well with my skills.

Then dodge. No, it's not impossible to avoid, but if this super vibrating punch bursts into the arena, that's the only shock wave you'll get. There is also a good chance that he will collapse and be pursued as he is.

If I can, I want such a dangerous armed force to be deactivated at this moment.

I mean, there's only one way I can do it. There's only one way you can fight it, you have it. I didn't need to get lost or anything.

"- Scream! HORNTED GRAVE!!

The tomb guard's sword, pulled out from the shadows, has already raised a scream that can be cursed in full opening.

The ruinous shroud that drives the living, resurrects the dead, and then fanaticizes the will to curse, at the same time gives this blade the power of tremor.

I held the 'Horned Grave' in my left hand straight into my impending fist of destruction.

Crossing, the fist of the warcraft and the blade of the tomb guard.

Together, the power to dwell is the same. Wherever the destructive battle goes...

"Gu, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I win.

Beyond the endurance limit, the silver machine arm began to crumble. The blade of Horned Grave stands in the middle of his fist, further tense and continues to sing.

The trembling blade crushed the fist-hardened steel finger (manipulator) in pieces and even blew it all the way around his wrist.

At that point, the equilibrium of forces that collide must have collapsed. I also let go of the pattern I gripped in my left hand to the strength of too much recoil. With tremendous momentum, Horned Grave blows my hand off to the other side of the arena.

I'll collect it later.

Thanks to her hard work, the chaossic rim also turns large and exposes the gap. Right here.

"-" Darkness ""

The blade of curse finally ripped off the neck of the resentful enemy.

"Yay! Mr. Chrono!

"Ooh..."

My neck hasn't fallen off. But it was shallow, it just couldn't be said enough.

Chaossic Lim's neck is indeed so deeply torn that the two speak up. Blood sprays up with tremendous momentum, completely lethal. The neck is more than half-cut, so the blood vessels are completely severed.

The head draped with gakun, literally connected with a piece of neck skin, as if it had lost its support.

Not yet, not dead. But I'm not in a state where I can fight back against Matomo anymore on a boulder.

Now the battle is decided - it's supposed to be, why?

"Huh!?

Chaossic Lim laughed, with his face still falling from his neck.
