Legend

The attack released towards the human form made of black dust was not dodged by the opponent, so it was all hit.

The Death Size slashed the opponent, the Twilight Spear pierced the opponent, the whip-shaped Mirage slashed, and the Ice Arrow penetrated his body.

Seen from the side, it was an attack that could only be seen unilaterally.

However... the feeling of the attack convinced me that Ray probably hadn't inflicted a fatal wound on the opponent.

The blow I fired was definitely powerful enough to take down an ordinary monster.

However, the response from the Death Size and Dusk Spear was like attacking the empty air.

Like Rey, Elena, who attacked directly with her own hand, also frowned beautifully in response to the attack as if released into the air through Mirage.

The ice arrow created by Set's only ice arrow was not a direct attack, so it didn't feel like it.

The human form made of black dust eventually returns with the scattered parts of the attack floating in the air again, making up for the missing parts.

"This is...... Tch!"

The black dust human form reached out to Ray, who was trying to say it was troublesome.

During the previous attack, Ray took a distance from the human form of the black dust because it would interfere with the ice arrows released by Set's last ice arrow.

At a distance of about 3 m.

In contrast, the human form of black dust is about 180 cm in size.

Normally, even if you reach out to Ray in such a situation, it's not very convenient, but it won't reach you.

It won't reach me... but that's normal.

Because the opponent is not a normal person, but a human type with black dust.

Ray's hand narrowed as it stretched.

For the Black Dust Humanoid, Ray's attack was so intense that it was judged to be the strongest enemy, or it was simply the nearest opponent that was the target of the attack.

Ray and I didn't know why, but we weren't supposed to get attacked quietly.

Lightly evades a human-shaped attack of black dust and fires a death-sized blow as a counter.

However, I still don't feel like I've slashed something in my hand.

(Does this need to be burned, not physically attacked?)

With that thought, I returned the wrist that was holding the death size and released a death size blow again.

However, it wasn't just a blow, it was a magic blow.

A gigantic weapon like Death Size can do this kind of imitation, but it's a huge thing because it hardly makes you feel the weight as one of the Death Size's abilities.

It was only because of its ability that it was a blow.....

"Damn, this is no good either!"

Even if it was a blow of magic power, it didn't feel like cutting off the blow.

With that regret, Ray was convinced.

If it was a blow with magic power, then Set's Ice Arrow was also magic... even though it wasn't magic, it was a skill activated with magic power.

Because it was ineffective, it was obvious that even a death-sized blow with magic power was meaningless.

(What do we do?)

It was Ray who thought about how to deal with the human form of black dust, but there was no feeling of impatience.

The ineffectiveness of our attacks is a threat.

That's for sure.

But... the enemy's attack is by no means powerful either.

No, I don't know if it's exactly powerful.

Although he reached out to Ray, his movements were by no means quick, and it wasn't that hard to avoid with Ray.

(Or is it due to the ability of the corpse to become the human form of the black dust?That's plenty to think about.)

It's not hard to dodge an attack with an opponent like this.

However, at the same time, since it's true that my attacks are ineffective, I wonder what I should do in this situation... eventually, I chose magic.

"I'll try to use magic on this one!"I might be able to do something with my magic! "

Listening to Ray's screams, Elena and Set simultaneously distanced themselves from the human form of the black dust.

However, since Elena and Set had originally attacked from a distance, they didn't actually have to get so nervous... but if you heard Ray's words about magic, it would make sense to be cautious.

Confirming that Elena and Set had distanced themselves from the human form of the black dust, Ray began to cast spells.

O flame, thou art only present in the region I have designated, and thou shalt not be present in any other region.As a price for this short life, feed on my magic power in the realm and sublimely sublime your life in an instant. "

At the same time that I cast that spell, a red line was drawn on the ground that surrounded the human form of black dust.

The black dust human form itself wasn't that big, so it didn't take long for the red line to surround it.

The red line became domed... and inside, countless fire spirits in the shape of lizards appeared.

Fire Spirit Chaos

At the same time as the magic is activated, the fire spirit in the shape of a lizard inside the red dome explodes... like a chain to one explosion, the fire spirit of the other lizard also explodes.

The red dome created by magic power is not as big as the human form of black dust, which is as big as the human form.

But still... because there were so many fire spirits in a narrow space, the explosions and flames that occurred in that confined space provided unusual power.

"This is..."

At a distance, Dusker's murmur came to Ray's ears.

I was stunned by his voice.

Of course, Dusker understands how powerful Ray is, and he has seen his strength in the war against the Bestian Empire.

But even so, when I saw Ray's magic up close... what was there was an unbelievable sight from Dusker's eyes.

If it was Dusker, it would be a pleasure to see Ray's magic... as well as its subtle magic.

However, this time, the main order is still a matter of oblivion.

Ray, what's going on?

In response to Dusker's words, Ray gets a little lost and opens his mouth.

"If that barrier doesn't disappear, I don't know what's going on inside."It's just... I think I defeated it because it was so powerful. "

You did it, didn't you?

No, that's a flag.

It was Ray who tried to say that, but the opponent was Dusker, so I stopped him.

I didn't think I could understand what it meant if I flagged Dusker.

(Now that Dusker's men are married when this is over... what should I do in that case?)

While I was thinking like that, the red dome eventually disappeared.

At that moment, the surroundings are overflowing with intense enthusiasm.

Until now, the heat trapped inside the red dome was released into the surroundings by the red dome disappearing.

Not to mention that it is now much cooler in autumn than in summer, so it may feel extra hot.

I saw Dusker wiping his sweat off with his arm.

But anyway, somewhere narrow, it's in the middle of the meadow.

There is nothing special about the surrounding area, and the grassland - many dead grasses - is spreading everywhere, and the heat created by the disappearance of the red dome disappears instantly.

If it was hotter and clearer, the dead grass might have burned in some cases.

But fortunately, in this situation, nothing like that has happened... and nothing left in the red dome, where the heat has dissipated.

That's literally everything... the black dust that made up the human form doesn't exist here anymore.

Phew

Ray exhaled a sigh of relief knowing that the corpse invaded by the wreckage...... even the black dust human form could be extinguished by his own magic.

What kind of existence is that specifically, it was not completely understood by Ray who hated it and who is now.

Still, it made a lot of sense to know that if you used your own magic, you could extinguish it.

(But... if I knew this, Nielsen would be very dissatisfied.)

I heard that Nielsen didn't come to Gilm this time to dispose of the separation from Bob.

However, Ray's magic wiped out the depression... no, knowing that it could be destroyed meant that Nielsen didn't have to bother working with the Chief.

Ray didn't know that his magic would be effective against demons.

That's true, but the question is whether Nielsen will be convinced by it.

If Nielsen knew about it, he would complain to Ray.

"It's gone..."

After the red dome disappeared, Dusker muttered, seeing that there was no trace of the black dust human form in it.

Even in Dusker's eyes, the human form of the black dust was unusual.

Even if Ray, Elena, and Set attacked, they couldn't defeat them at all.

But with Ray's magic, I was finally able to defeat him.

In that sense, even if you can defeat it, it certainly seems like a troublesome existence.

Ray, how did you feel about actually fighting?

"It's a bit different to be strong..."I think it's more correct to use the phrase "sloppy". ”

“What do you think would happen if so many enemies came out like this?”

"I don't think you'll be able to win.Of course, there are good adventurers in the Gilm, so some of them have a high attack power, so if we focus on such adventurers, we can do something about it. "

"Hmm. Attack is a problem."However, it is also true that it would be troublesome.... the best thing to do is not to fight it. "

"That's the best, isn't it?Fortunately... I don't know how to say that, but for now, the nine remaining bodies are stored in the Misty Ring.Besides, if we get rid of the corpses before they completely erode us, we might be able to do something about it. ”

This time, it was invaded by the shadows...... I took the trouble to defeat the human form of the black dust because after all, I waited for the opponent to be completely eroded by the shadows.

If you attack while it's still incomplete, there's a good chance you'll be able to do anything around here.

"Also, there was no doubt in my mind that it was difficult, but it seemed to be severely inferior in terms of attack power."

Elena interrupts Ray and Dusker's conversation.

From Elena's point of view, there was no particularly damaging damage to the black dust human form when it was attacked by Ray or Set.

The black dust that made up the body was scattered in the air, but it was not long before it returned to its original state.

In that sense, it was definitely a mistake, but it was a different story when it came to attacking.

In the sense of attacking like an attack...... that's just reaching out.

Even so, the word "attack" was a slow action that never suited me.

If the black dust man touched his extended hand, Ray wouldn't know what would happen.

If I had tried it, I would have understood... but Ray didn't really want to try something like that.

"In other words, even if it's difficult to defeat, it's still possible to stop?"But that black dusty human form was stubbornly targeting me for some reason.If you can't determine the reason for that, I think it could be a hassle. "

"I don't deny that. But... from what I've seen, Ray was the one who did the most damage to that black dust human form.I think it was because they understood that, that they were after Ray. "

It seemed a little bit... I was really sorry because Elena's attack on Mirage was perceived to be less damaging than Ray's - she used a Death Size and Dusk Spear, so it was exactly two shots.

Apart from her feelings for Ray, Elena was also called a princess general.

But it wasn't funny that Ray was perceived to be a more troublesome opponent than himself in the form of a black dust human.

If that happens, it won't be so hard to lure the enemy to a place of their choice.

"The level of intelligence didn't seem high, and it would be easy to lure Dusker somewhere, as Lord Dusker said."And if you use a powerful attack to target the place you lured them out..... "

So he stopped speaking, and Ray's gaze turned to the place where the black dust human form was...... the center of magic.
