Legend

At some point, he appeared on Ray's side.

Ray could only be surprised at his appearance.

Ray wouldn't have been so surprised if he could feel the signs of approaching here.

However, he didn't make me feel anything, and the chief was on Ray's side.

"Gruuuuuuu..."

It wasn't just Ray who was surprised, but Set as well.

No, I guess Set was more of a surprise than a surprise.

Ray's senses are sharper than normal humans and beasts.

But Set has a sharper sense than Ray.

But it must have been an incredible surprise that Set was right next to him.

Ray and Set are surprised, and so is Nielsen.

However, the surprise is much less than Ray or Set.

There are differences between Nielsen, who knows the length well, and Ray and Set, who know each other poorly.

Nielsen, who has been with the chief for a long time, thought it would be odd if the chief did this kind of thing... no, I thought it would be natural to do this kind of thing.

That's why even if the chief suddenly shows up next to him, I'm surprised, but not as surprised as Ray or Set.

After seeing such a calm Nielsen, Ray's surprise disappeared and his complacency grew stronger.

(If you think about it, the fairy has the ability to transfer the fairy circle. I was able to transfer magic items as well. Thinking of it that way, isn't it amazing how long it takes for the leader to transfer...? However, it is obviously strange that there is no news.)

Some of it was like a sign of some sort of transfer, and Ray might have been convinced of it.

However, raw hatred and Ray didn't feel such a harbinger.

If I had noticed, there was a long figure right next to me.

What's the matter, Lord Ray?

Looking at himself and tilting his neck, Ray opened his mouth as he wondered what to say.

"I don't know what's going on, or why you're suddenly on my side, but I have no idea."... well, that's fine. In the end, you can think that it has something to do with you, right? "

Ray asked, showing an uncertain black mass that was disgusted just by looking at it.

In response to Ray's words, the chief nodded without a moment's hesitation.

“Yes, that's not a mistake.”

It's a lot different than the people who fought here before.

"That's because the only thing I fought before was that people had shards of silver, whereas the very existence here was silver..."

That's what it's all about.

It was the chief who tried to say so, but the words were interrupted by the sound of the tree falling.

Ray was surprised at what had happened.

Because the tree that had fallen at the end of the gaze had been absorbed by a black mass with black dust where it was broken just like when I saw it earlier.

"Regardless of whether or not it's fallen, it's troublesome if the tree falls just by touching it."... it doesn't seem like I'm going to be openly hostile to you for now. "

Because they didn't seem to be attacking us, Ray and I were able to have a conversation while watching the situation from a distance.

However, there is no doubt that this will be a lot of trouble.

Because the tree breaks just because a black lump is touched, if you leave it like that, the trees will break everywhere.

... that's not all.

I only touch trees now, so I don't have any particular problems, but what happens if I touch other... animals and creatures, humans and fairies?

That's exactly what I need to think about.

As you can see, if you leave that black mass there, it's very dangerous.

"But the problem is how to defeat it."...... even if I used my skills, I couldn't do it. Is it magic after all? "

Having actually defeated the human form of the black dust, it was magic that Ray first came up with.

However, if you use magic, you need to use it separately so that it doesn't spread to your surroundings.

Even now, the air is dry in autumn.

Besides that, if you do something bad, there is a high chance that it will be a forest fire... no.

The trees in the Trent Forest are the materials you need to build more Gilms.

In the first place, the trees in the Trent Forest can be used as materials... On the contrary, they are not ordinary materials, and it turns out that they are strong enough to defeat metal by taking magical measures, and they have strong defenses against magic. That's why Dusker decided to start construction on the Gilm.

So what happens if all the trees in the Trent Forest that became the decision are burned?

This will have a major impact on the Gilm's expansion.

It's not a positive impact, it's a negative impact.

Other adventurers, such as the Lizard Man who sleeps in the birth tower in the Trent Forest, and his escort, will also suffer.

Of course, that was the worst possible outcome.

When I defeated the human form of black dust in the first place, there was no damage to the surrounding meadows, so I could use the same magic.

"Can I ask you a favor? There's no sign of attacking us right now, but considering the fact that we're being attacked, it doesn't matter when we get attacked. That's why, in the worst case, it's not surprising that each black mass is headed somewhere else.”

In the words of the chairman, Ray gave a disgusting expression from the bottom of his heart.

A black mass that turns the place into black dust and absorbs it just by touching it.

Considering that it is scattered in all directions, as the chairman said, it is only the worst outcome that comes to mind.

As for Ray, I didn't want that to happen if I could.

That's why I immediately nodded to the words of the chairman.

“Okay, I'll try.... I just don't know if this is going to work. That's why it's possible to stimulate poorly and let that black mass run wild in the wind."

We don't attack ourselves now, but it's just for now.

If Ray's magic kills us... I don't know if the black mass will kill us or not, but if we decide it's dangerous for us anyway, the person who did it... I can't deny the possibility of attacking Ray.

Besides that, I needed to be able to respond immediately if anything happened before I attacked.

Please.

Neither did the chief, who knew about the leaves, think that Ray's words were great lewdness.

In a sense, he was more alert to the black mass than Ray.

Well then, let's do it.

Muttering, Ray focused on his death size and 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. "

While casting a spell, I pierced the ground with a death-sized stone thrust.

Then, the red line stretched like running on the ground.

The line takes up nearly half of the black mass.

Due to the position of the black mass, the largest black mass could not be enclosed by a line.

With a little bit of regret, I activated my magic.

Fire Spirit Chaos

At the same time that the magic is activated, a semi-transparent membrane spreads out in a dome from the red line drawn to the ground, trapping the black mass.

At the same time, countless lizard-shaped fire ghosts appeared inside the red dome... and the next moment, one of the lizards exploded.

Although the explosion itself is powerful, it is not such a big explosion.

But the terrible thing about this magic was that it came from all over.

When a lizard explodes, the other lizards explode in a chain.

There were three, ten, twenty, and so on, and the red dome was covered by countless explosions.

The explosion alone can do a lot of damage to the target, but the greatest effect of this magic is the moment the last lizard explodes.

Scorching flame.

The flames deserved to be described in that way were raging through the dome.

Rather than touching the flames, it's not strange to burn the surroundings with the hot air itself, such an overwhelming scorching flame.

However, even though the red dome created by Ray's magic turns into a scorching hell, beyond that...... I don't feel any heat at all from a distance from the dome.

There was no doubt that the red dome was completely cutting off the heat.

Ray was looking at the red dome, but he immediately turned his attention to the surroundings.

The black mass has the ability to absorb the touched beings into black dust.

Beyond that, in some cases, even the red dome created by Ray's magic could be imitated as black dust and absorbed.

Does it affect my magic?

Grrrrrrr!

The first person to answer Ray's question was Set.

Looking at the tip of Set's gaze, there was a black mass that had just touched the red dome.

From what Ray saw, it didn't seem like there was any intelligence in the black mass.

That's how I moved around appropriately, absorbing the existence I touched into black dust... Rather than a creature, it seems like a weapon or something.

That's why I didn't aim at the dome, I just accidentally touched it.

Anyway, Ray was relieved that touching such a black mass would have no effect on the red dome.

"Seems like there's no problem." After that... whether or not the black lump is annihilated in that dome "

The human form of black dust was destroyed by this magic.

That is why it should be called annihilation, because it burns and disappears to such an extent that it cannot be regenerated.

Whether or not the magic works on the black mass.

I can't say anything about that area unless I try it out.

"Oh, wait, Ray! Chief!"

Ray was looking at the red dome where the flames were trapped, but suddenly Nielsen's voice was heard.

Nielsen?

"Hey, over there! That big black one!"

In those words, Ray and the longest black masses were the biggest... they didn't move around like the other black masses, and they turned their gaze to the black masses that remained in one place.

Nielsen's eyes turned to what she meant by raising her voice in surprise.....

Seriously?

Looking at the scene beyond that gaze, such a voice leaked from Ray's mouth.

The chief didn't say anything, but he was sure to be surprised.

Set's throat also chirped with surprise.

A bigger black mass suddenly appeared, just like another... moving around.

”I came out... but that's not a split, it's like I came out of a big black lump.”

What kind of ecology is the black mass? No, Ray doesn't even know its properties.

It's not strange to divide yourself in some way, like certain creatures or monsters.

Or maybe it's not a split, but a child.

But from a distance, it doesn't seem like a split.

In the first place, it is strange that if you divide, the base is not reduced by that amount.

(No, it might be wrong to think of something like that as normal for monsters. Before that, you weren't a monster, were you?)

The biggest black mass in the room, not far from the red dome.

Ray suddenly noticed that he was looking at it.

"Chief, isn't that... a split or something coming out of that black mass?"

"... what do you mean?"

I guess I didn't understand what Ray was saying.

The chief asks strangely in response to the words.

And yet, maybe Ray noticed something he didn't realize, and he turned to Ray with a serious expression.

"In other words, that biggest black mass is ego unlike other black masses... no, isn't this the correct expression?" Anyway, I didn't think it would be like moving around and attacking the surroundings, but maybe that's how the space that is connected to somewhere looks like. "

Ray thought so because he saw with his own eyes the hole in the middle of the Trent Forest that leads to the otherworld, and above all, he went through it.

"I mean... is there a stalker or a stalker at the end of that black mass?"

Ray nodded as he asked nervously.
