Sword of the Philosopher

The downward passage is a spiral downhill, and we go slowly. As I walked, I could feel the slightest discomfort. The demons that exist underground are undoubtedly 'Dark Dolls', but based on the fact that individual abilities are not high, they can be considered as a possibility to feel distracted before approaching -

"There seems to be a significant number of them at this stage."

"... I have one question"

Raifin asks me as he puts his hand up small.

"How much did the story describe that demon appeared?

"You don't know exactly. But there was talk of the Knights of one country struggling with numbers that somehow got their attitude in place, so it wouldn't be a hundred or two hundred."

If you suck, you know, thousands... it just wasn't portrayed directly in the game, so that could be changing again now that it's the real world.

In doing so, did the passage finally reach the basement or the slope became an uninterrupted and direct path.

"Well, I wonder how long you'll be"

Illuminate the lights first. You can see the exit in the aisle, and we can finally see Dark Doll.

"... eh"

Raifin raised his voice. Loct then becomes silent.

And me too... 'Darkdoll' is, indeed, weak. There seems to be an exception for once, and there was a statement in the configuration data set that there are also people who are not able to cope with a large and common physique of knights and warriors.

But what we see by the lights now is a small, very ordinary individual. For dark, pitchy skin like a crop that doesn't make you feel like a doll. It's creepy, but I don't feel fear.

The problem is... at the time of the lit range, there are probably more than a hundred of them.

"... at this point, this many?

Shortly after I speak, the Dark Doll closest to the aisle looks at us and shows vigilance. It didn't sound like a chirp, but then the other individuals turned to us... and it was creepy.

"Raefin, Loct. Do you know how many?

"Calculate from signs…"

Speak as Raifin groans.

"I can't answer right away, but maybe it's over a thousand..."

"I guess that should do it."

That's just how surprised Loct is, too.

"It will be true that individual abilities are not high, but that's just how many..."

"Right...... then the question"

I'll ask Rayfin and Locke.

"Do you think Ledras will notice if I take it seriously and destroy it all at once?

"... I can't tell you that there's no better chance of realizing the great magic that has emerged underneath than pouring magic into the earth"

"How about intermediate magic?

"I don't know... but it's possible"

Raefin says. And I said, "Okay."

"So how are the signs of the Raifins?

"... I also think it could be noticed"

If so, you have one choice. "Dark Doll" is so much that the Demons and Demon Kings were unaware of its emergence that there would be no problem in annihilating it here. If they find out, they won't be on guard when they step into the castle without even a trace that we did it. Therefore, we should suppress the emission of magic and stand around to prevent the identity from being revealed.

"Loct, check, but the investigation has to break through these guys, right?

"Right."

"Then do you just clean a little bit? Leave it to me. Raifin and Rocto, as you think about protecting yourself"

"Then temporarily, but into Master Luon's body."

"Can you do it besides the contractor?

"We can't use our power because it's pseudo."

"Then that's fine."

The Raifins disappear. At the same time, I sheath my sword first. It's tough with swords to deal with this many. To finish quickly, change your weapon.

A slight chant produces light in front of me. The arrow tip that touched it, the light converges and a single spear appears.

This is the type of magic that didn't exist on the game...... Advanced magic has methods such as' Ice Spirit Sword 'that produce swords by magic, but this is the same series of inferior magic as them. It produces magical spears, and the offensive power is little different than a common iron spear.

In my studies, I also tried to use weapons such as spears and axes, not just swords, but basically I came to the conclusion that the most used sword was enough. As for bows, etc., magic is more useful, so there is no opportunity to use them, and there are moves to help with body surgery, but I have never had a chance to use them before.

The spear is just a little different. When I'm alone versus a group, spear moves with a lot of range attacks are pretty convenient.

Besides, if I were capable of doing this, I would be mortally wounded by a demon even if I were a mere horizontal giraffe... alert. Looking at the 'Dark Doll' that didn't strike me as I turned this way, I jumped out through the runway to a wide underground.

Before you get your hands on me, roll out the horizontal giraffe first. For a moment, the demons that were in range of attack blew up without exception. It was a slightly more physical assault, but it still seemed sufficient for the Dark Dolls.

I move to keep my magic from leaking to the outside as much as possible...... Not that I have anything around it yet at the moment, but an atmosphere where I don't seem to have to give strength about this one. There's only one thing that bothers me.

"... That's a lot"

Speak like a voyeur. The number of demons that existed at the bottom of the ground is superior to the number of hundreds or two. Look at my actions and let my eyes circle around me as I wipe out the demons that are attacking me.

"Loct, which way?

"It's directly in front!

In response to the sound in my head, I put my legs forward. Then finally, the Dark Doll and the others become active. As if they were going to crush us all at once - against me, I waved the spear in a luxurious manner.

A dozen demons in front touched the spear and vanished. The spear created by magic produces magic in parts other than the tip of the blade, so it works even if it hits there. Thus demons touching spears will disappear without exception.

Re-grabbing the spear and launching an attack on an even more impending demon, this time a spin in the spinning slaughter procedure. The demons that tried to loom from front, back, left, and right were blown away lightly.

"... hmm?

In it, I discover a guy who is lit by lights and has a back length close to that of other demons. I get the idea that it must be a being that absorbs and shapes more magic than any other demon.

He's attacking me again... while kicking the demons around me, I confronted the tall guy directly from the front.

"Maybe it's stronger than the others, but still -"

Demons that storm. I quickly entered the spike posture - releasing a generic junior move, Flash Penetration.

A move that unleashes a powerful thrust with magic. It struck directly at the storming 'Dark Doll'...... it blew lightly and vanished.

I thought I could afford it, but the demons around me narrow the siege all at once because they were distracted by it. It doesn't hurt or itch to be octopus punched, but it can't take time to get attacked. I just wave my spear and blow up all the demons I've been trying to get close to.

Here, too, the demonic movement changes. The demons, which were neither collaborative nor anything, suddenly turned into neat movements.

It was for a moment that I thought it was the Devil tribe's bid - etc. I felt a great deal of exasperation in the direction of my progress.

"By that temper, you're controlling the movement of demons...?

Behind the demons that attack us to siege, there is a demon movement that prepares to storm. No, that's not all. There is a guy who exasperates further from the rear.

"Rayfin, Roct, apparently there's a stronger individual in the rear of the guy who's conducting..."

"Yes, the demon is the strongest of them all."

Raefin answers. I look out for demons who are instructed to storm as I say, "Okay."

It's like an army... and I kick the imminent demons. Due to the Commander's temper, the surrounding men are moving in a crisp manner. Then you'd better defeat the guy who commands first.

Under that judgment, I blow up the demons ahead and set up an assault. Then the exasperating demon also turned bold. I just let go of my spear - I succeeded in destroying it. The temper is interrupted, and the movement of the surrounding demons is dull.

Ok...... whining in my heart while I capture the strong exasperating guy who is even further ahead. An individual of the same height as me... I rushed there.
