"I wonder if the purpose of the opponent is to disrupt their power?"
After being split by the magic of the earth.
In the black shadow sphere Rifa created in the soil, I was doing the final check of the magic gun in preparation for the battle, swaying as the soil moved.
Rifa replies to me with a complicated expression.
"I guess. Besides, I recognize this magic."
Oh, really?
"... yeah. It looks just like the magic of our fellow Iris....."
Nia, a former Demon King Warlord, used to call her England.
It can't be irrelevant.
Well, I can't afford to think about it right now, and I guess I'll just have to put it behind me.
"No, let's think about the situation right now. Now..."
The shadow that was forcibly carrying us stays where Reefa talked.
A floating feeling different from the feeling of moving through the soil.
When Rifa releases the shadow,
"... ahhh"
"You're so surrounded...!?"
It was surrounded by many Demon King soldiers and monsters, mainly me and Rifa.
Among the possible possibilities, a neutral beast emerges from behind the soldiers as his head aches over the fact that he has attracted the worst situation.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Looks like a rat got caught. If you surrender now, I'll only think about your life. I'm just thinking!"
Suddenly, the agitated referee leans her head strangely and looks back at me.
"... who?"
"No, you've met me before!! It's Pregas, Pregas!! It's an officer of the Demon King Army!!"
……?
"You're more of a nuisance than Nia, this guy...!"
He looks like he doesn't really remember, but he's one of the Demon King's army executives who attacked the St. Real.
He was caught fighting Figlo, but he escaped too.
Well, well, that's fine. Either way, you're done here. "
"Isn't it too soon to give up?"
"Are you out of your mind? There are over a hundred gentle monsters and soldiers here. There's more power in the back, and against you two... pu, kufu, how do you win against these few opponents?"
Pregas with an unbearable smile.
To be able to do so, the soldiers around them also gave a humble laugh, but on the other hand we were not so anxious.
"Are we the most?"
"Hmm, maybe Kite and Io, Chisato and Nia broke up, so it seems normal. Ah, that means right now, I'm alone with Kite!? I'm so curious!!"
"We have to meet...! We have to meet as soon as possible...!"
Pregas distorted his expression into anger to us who were having a breathtaking conversation.
I'm probably good at stirring things up, but on the contrary, I'm not good at stirring things up.
"Nh, do it!!"
Soldiers and monsters moving at once.
As they approached, Rifa took a deep breath and let her magic go.
"--- Do you think you can beat me in numbers?"
In an instant, Rifa, wrapped in the magic of the black shadow, attacked in all directions, creating a double from her own shadow.
Doppelgangers with entities that can also fight.
Individual combat abilities are good, not even for soldiers or monsters like you.
Wow, there's only one army.
Mug, that's reliable.
While switching to a rifle barrel, I saw soldiers being ravaged by Rifa's counterparts.
Feeling the existence of a magic gun firmly in my hand, I breathed lightly - I fired an arrow at one of the soldiers who tried to slash it with a sword from behind.
The shot arrow pierces the soldier's foot.
"Yikes!?"
"If you stay asleep, you won't die. Stand up and I won't forgive you."
"Here, you fucking cunt...!"
In agony, he took a sword and shot an arrow in the chest and head of a soldier about to attack him.
We can't kill aggressively, but we still have to do it when we have to.
If you don't do that, you'll be the next one to lose your life.
"Sailor"
…… Don't worry about it. Come on, let's do it, Kish. "
Hold the magic gun while thanking Kish for caring about me.
The opponent's formation has collapsed and has been brought into an easy-going turmoil.
"Somebody stop that woman!!"
"I hate it!? That's not the power of pain!!"
Shoot arrows at soldiers in range one after the other, decreasing their number smoothly.
At this rate, you'll have to use your back hand -
"I'll do that woman!!"
"That's not going to be easy...!"
A big man nearly twice my height comes out in front of me, throwing a soldier on my side.
An arrow is thrown at the big man approaching us, but he comes to us without being stung or frightened.
"It doesn't work for me like that needle!!"
……
Calmly, remove the single-handed magic gun from the waist holder.
A single-loaded magic gun that Ellie made for me.
I checked the bullet enclosed in it with my eyes and threw it at the foot of the big man.
"Ha, frozen..."
Immediately after landing at his feet, Nia's cold air magic bullets were released, freezing the big man's feet.
In that gap, I narrowed down the magic gun I held with my right hand so as to support it with my left hand, and set my aim.
"Don't feel bad! Kish!"
Ah, here we go.
The barrel wrapped in a red flame, and as it accelerated, it knocked into the big man's eyes - pulling the trigger at the same time as the direct hit, knocking down the arrow at zero distance.
"Flame Spike (Flame Stinger)!!"
A flame bursts into his back to penetrate the big man.
I sigh loudly while avoiding the big man who falls down while smoking out of his mouth.
"Ah! Shit!! I have to do this if I can endure it with vegetables! I don't like it anymore!!"
"Don't use dirty language. I'll be angry again."
"I know!! I wonder if you could put a sword on the barrel next time!!"
If we try to disable our enemies again while disturbing their tone, a large Griffon will rush towards us this time.
Holding the magic gun, the black counterpart nearby replaced the main unit, Rifa, and hit Griffon in the face.
"Sarah!"
"I'm fine. I'll take care of this. You take care of the rest."
"... okay!"
I looked at the rising griffon as I walked away from the referee.
I don't have time for this guy alone, so I'll get rid of him quickly and move on to the next one.
"Come on, Io!!"
Load a bullet with a green mark onto another one-handed magic gun and release it to the foot of the griffon.
At the same time as hitting the ground, the magic loaded with bullets is activated, turning into a flower jar that tangles Griffon's feet.
"Thundercracker---"
Using Griffon's wings as a scaffold, he slammed a magic bullet with the power of Shif's electric shock into his head as he jumped.
On top of that, I set my sights firmly on Griffon's head in the air, pulling the trigger.
"All bullets (full barrett)!!"
A spreading arrow hits Griffon's head.
In an instant, while confirming that the life of the Griffon has been harvested, use the recoil of the projectile to land on the ground with a single rotation in the air.
"Next!"
While switching the barrel to the projectile type, one person and one person will definitely disable the soldiers.
As I lost my shoulders, hands, feet, and maneuvers, and sometimes pulled the trigger while I couldn't move, I was surrounded by violent monsters.
"There are so many monsters!!"
"Sera, don't be alarmed."
"I know. Your head is cool, right?!"
The soldiers are not unusual in the number of monsters, anyway.
I don't know if they're gathering monsters around here, but either way, they'll still need to deal with the monsters they unleashed after defeating the Demon King army.
"Come on, this is the time to help me!"
The bullet removed from the ammunition case is thrown into space with its fingers and then loaded onto the Magic Gun.
A bullet fired at a slightly distant ground strikes directly at the ground while emitting golden light.
Gahhhhh!!
Gurgh!!
The monsters flocked with golden magic like smoke.
When I tried to shoot the magical arrows to clean them up all at once, a spear made of shadows arrived at the monsters.
"Ah, Sarah! Tell me beforehand when using kite's magic!!"
"Ahhhhhh!!"
Speaking of which, Rifa was susceptible to Kite's magic.
Unlike at the time of the St. Regis, when he was in extraordinary control of his own power, he thought there was something incredible about it, but once he and Rifa had cleared up the soldiers and the monsters, he stepped back.
"Hang in there, enemies are overflowing."
"I can't afford it, but it's getting a little more troublesome."
I'm not breathing out. I don't think I'm lying.
Well, my magic is fuel-efficient, and I can say the same because I only have a good amount of magic.
Then, Pregas, who broke up the frightened soldiers, screamed at us with a frying look.
"Well, of course! Anyway, we're gathering the best guards here. I'll push you to death with the volume!!"
"Ah, I was there."
"...!!!"
Pregus becomes an unspeakable face with no anger for the natural incitement of the Rifa.
He's holding onto something like a magic trick with hesitation... but what is that?
... the magic tool you use when you're cornered.
Do you not use it now because it involves an ally, or because it could be dangerous to you?
I understand somehow that a man named Pregas is not the kind of guy who cares about his allies, so the latter is likely.
"Reefer, let's get that out of here."
"... already?"
Reefer turns around with a slender face.
She makes me nod with a smile.
"It's the best thing to do right now! Come on, let's do it!!"
I can't help it. I get it.
Rifa with her hand on the ground pulls a big object out of the shadow.
Beyond two meters, the sole has a barrel that is a little round in thickness and boasts a platform that supports it.
Having manipulated the shadows to secure the sole and the ground, I grabbed the grip with both hands and directed its aim towards the direction of the pregas, “loading” it with magic.
"Eh, what's that?"
The magic is fueled by a spin called a queen.
You will not understand what will happen.
After all, there can never be such a weapon in this world.
I give a smile to Pregas, who blues his face with vague fear.
"It's called the Devil's Gun. I'll cure you thoroughly, so you can eat it with confidence. ♪"
"Nh! Everybody out! ---"
"Fire"
In a moment, the arrows that lit up the green healing light with the sound of Zugaa!! are released continuously.
Soldiers fleeing the rain of hundreds of arrows.
The screams of pain and suffering.
Don't pull the leaf.
Exactly, I continued to pull the trigger while seeing the so-called devil's weapon.
