Sword of the Philosopher

I'll cut your life.

The demons newly created by Commander Kobolt are exactly the same as the 'Kobolt Soldiers' fighting around them. I mean, for Boslo, he's an enemy that can be cleaned up in one swing - but if he had a strong enemy directly in front, the story would definitely be different.

The number is three. Left, right and back against Boslo - where I unleashed 'Holy Lance'.

A spear of light erases the demons behind the General. At the same time Boslo interrupted the attack and made a retreat. Naturally the commander and other demons chase after him. But there,

- Thunder!

It was Sophia's magic. Thunderlight from her fingertips - Thunder Attribute Intermediate Magic 'Lightning' bursts. She is moving with her horse to a place where she captures the demons that were left and right of Boslo in a linear fashion, and the thunder light penetrates the demons and erases them at the same time -!

As commander, the measure would be the result of being crushed. I saw Kobolt set up Boslo while I thought it was over or something.

The magic is clearly diminishing compared to earlier. Apparently, the act of creating demons in three instantaneous bodies was a considerable burden. Guess what, the Demons only gave them the ability to produce demons, and they weren't supposed to let them use them because they would squander their magic. Demons produce demons, so long as they don't have those special abilities from the beginning, they also consume more magic. So I figured there was no reason for Boslo to lose to Commander Kobolt, who was less powerful than he was earlier.

In the blink of an eye, Cobolt's magic suddenly swelled up against my expectations.

"Nah."

Sophia groans. And the knights around them look stunned.

The magic I've been showing is like adding or subtracting... If the magic I've been showing is like a bonfire, a bonfire that has now erupted to the point of reaching heaven. I stopped at first, too, but I immediately understand the cause of that magic.

"Sharpen your own life...!?"

For demons, magic is life itself. Just as humans must consume breath and food to maintain their flesh, demons need to gain magic and maintain their bodies.

But the cobolt in front of me is only thinking of erupting magic and defeating the general - I guess that's what the Demons are ordering. Rather than risking your life......, this Kobolt is just a doll who fights at the behest of the Demons. I'm just following orders.

I start chanting to fight it. Beyond this much magic, the slaughter you unleash can also be a decisive hit against Boslo. Immediately perform the chant of 'Holly Lance' to an attitude that can be covered -

It was right after that. Cobolt, who was trying to chase him to Boslo, suddenly scowled the ground. The behavior could have been puzzling from the perspective of the knights. But I understood.

"No way -"

At the next moment, a blue shock wave occurs like a wave from the tip of the ground. This is the "Ground Ascending Wave" of the Grand Sword's subordinate moves. It is a move that sends magic to the ground by scratching the ground and creating small shock waves by linking it to the magic present on the earth.

Range-based attack, low power. It's a trick in the game that makes it less valuable to use if you put it in the middle, and I've only used it as much as I count. But...

"Wet!"

Boslo groans. The shockwave swallows his body - it seemed unharmed, but the shockwave causes the general's body to be bounced off.

"General -!"

Sophia screams. At the same time, Kobolt's face - all of a sudden, it was pointed at us.

Did you react by attacking and stopping the measures? Boslo doesn't have to go after it in a big way, but he set us a target first.

Can you afford to fight with your life cut off and just sit here... Kobolt will not hesitate to come at us. Meanwhile, Boslo still can't get back on his feet.

I tried to instruct Sophia to retreat once - the next moment, Kobolt quickly swung up his sword and slammed him on the ground again.

'Ground Rise Wave' that arises again. There is no damage if I eat it, but I understand what the intent is, and at the same time I realize that I cannot avoid it.

The aim of Kobolt is definitely the horse I ride. I manipulated the reins and tried to circumvent them, but I couldn't. Drinking by the shock waves, he breaks down in a big way.

"Eh!"

As I lowered my voice to zero, I lowered my horse in such a way that half of it would be thrown out. The horse suffered some damage, but the wound appeared to be slight. Nevertheless, the atmosphere was stronger that the shockwave emitted by Kobolt was blown away rather than defeating the horse. Drag us down to ride first and cook, something like that.

But Boslo's already on the move at this point. As soon as I looked directly at Commander Kobolt, I saw a general approaching the demon from the side.

"Your opponent, it's me!

Spears. That sword trident is more than ever and would undoubtedly have been the best blow at this point.

But Kobolt, who releases his magic while cutting his life, is also at full strength - the moment the two weapons clashed, Boslo was even more bounced off.

No, that can't be done with the word being bounced off. To a height high enough to cross the general's own height, it blew away.

To that sight, I try to call the General. But Kobolt stopped moving his mouth because he caught this one - so now a ridden knight with a spear approached him from behind Kobolt.

A form that completely shook through the void. If it was a previous cobolt, it could have taken a blow and done more or less damage. However,

"No! Retreat!"

I was screaming reflexively by accident. But the knight never stops, and Kobolt waves his sword to confront him. the two weapons staggered,

Now every horse knight's body blew up.

"Nah."

Sophia's voice from the rear. That idiotic power is something to be amazed at, and by how much further it becomes clear that Cobolt is releasing its power.

Nevertheless, its power is generated only by cutting lives… it is definitive that there is a time limit, but how much.

There's just one thing I can say for sure - even with a short amount of time left, there's definitely just enough time to stick my fangs up to me.

Cobolt turns to me again. The blown up Boslo is in shape, and even if he comes to cover, it will be after I meet with Kobolt. And there's Sophia behind it. The answer to what to do was one.

Gather magic on both arms. Kobolt shook up the sword and flashed to break my body - instantly, I remember when I had a meeting with Boslo.

When the general set me up, I couldn't even regulate my powers because of the aggressiveness - but not this time. Magic emanating from Cobolt. The experience of sensing its output and continuing to fight demons gives orders to the body.

Kobolt growls, against me, silently - the swords clash against each other. Even Boslo blew up the slaughter. From the knights around you, it's not strange to think it's over.

But I got my sword cut. Magic has not been released externally. So, it's not like my abilities will be exposed - but if the Demons were to see this sight, they might be interested in me because I'm a man who's been cut off by a sword.

That's when Kobolt applies his power to the stopped sword. I put more effort into it... as a result, the equilibrium stays.

As a cobolt, it would be a hurried situation. Move to crush me again, or retreat once - but I couldn't afford to think about it as a demon.

We're back on track, Boslo reaches behind Kobolt. Seeing that magnificently swinging spear, I finally realized to myself that it would be settled.
