Sword of the Philosopher

Dangerous tactics

Before the ice magic covers my entire body, I burst the magic underfoot to destroy the ice itself. At the same time as we escape, the big tree of ice rises where we stood.

The magic output itself is no different than mine, which is real. I think it was quite technical and produced something bothersome -

A fake bears a sword. I explore the magic that keeps me from doing so.

I don't even fully imitate the sword I have, but I'm pretty sure my friends have the power to eat it without a single one. Speaking of which, I myself didn't verify what would happen if I ate this sword... well, I figured it would be unfolding to fight not metaphors with myself, so naturally.

You should play all the swords if you can. I think I can defend against magic attacks... but the problem is that I can defend myself, which means that fakes that reproduce my powers can also prevent attacks.

"There's just some advantages over here"

It's the presence of Resbail. Apparently the fake couldn't even imitate the armored angel, so with this power you should be able to create as much power as you can defeat the fake.

Resvail is currently fully defended, but it is possible to direct a portion of his power here. The moment I sent instructions in my head, magic poured in from Resbail.

Immediately after, I flashed my sword. Still stubbornly attacking fakes and swords - pushed back.

I decided I could, arrow tips, further magic from the fake. In a pure magic battle, there's Les Bailes. You can't beat me, but what are you going to do?

That's what I thought, arrowheads, awesome signs fill the hall. So I immediately guessed. This is...

"I see this is troublesome......!

Draw your sword as you leak your voice, choosing to retreat once. As soon as possible, the fake interrupted the eruption of magic.

"Luon! What's that?!?"

And voices from the rear. Looks like Reese.

"... given only the amount of magic, there are absolutely fewer fakes that haven't been able to copy Resbail. But this guy has a trump card I don't have."

"Trump card……!?"

"Oh. There's a trump card that says you won't save your life."

A person cannot use up all the magic that exists in the body. Suppose, for example, you used the magic of trump cards to get into a state of teasing where "you can't even create lights anymore". But there is still 10% and 20% magic left in the body.

People in this world - no, all the flora and fauna that exist in this world reside in magic. It is humans and angels and demons who use it and use it as magic, but if the magic is completely depleted, they risk dying if they are bad. More specifically, zero magic prevents the body from working properly, and without a magic supply from the outside, it falls into such conditions as cardiopulmonary arrest.

That means you also need magic to support your flesh... spirits and the like are the most important thing. They're a mass of magic, so if you use all the magic that's in your body, it literally goes away. Stories exist where spirits and the like have magic in exchange for life, and so on, but such examples can also be real.

This can be said of humans as well. Even if I use normal magic, my body instinctively stops to avoid using it all. But you can purposely get rid of it with magic or something and use magic. This will allow you to exercise more powerful magic than usual, but in exchange, considerable damage will bounce back on your flesh. Depending on the damage, you will die.

So in this world, you can realize the great trick of "turning life energy into power" in a story in the world of previous life... it makes no sense that you would not do it as far as I'm concerned, and you would die doing it without the need to do it before.

However, that's not what the fake is in front of me... I just received Resbail's magic and enhanced it, while the fake tried to respond with all the magic I had open. This means that the stops are supposed to take 10% and 20% of the time... so the magic turns to attack as well.

By translating it locally into a flash of explosive aggression like a volcano erupting, we can cross each other with all our might… it is an unassuming tactic of war that would not have been feasible unless it had been fake.

"Then should I bring it into a protracted war...?

The amount of magic is limited to whatever it takes. It's me, so if you keep getting Resvail's magic while they attack you, you'll be able to defeat them sooner or later by running out of magic. If you want certainty, that's best.

It's just - I don't know, but I also feel like that's a different way of doing things. Words of demonic surrender. Isn't it only according to the fake in front of you directly from the front that you get more than just the power to save the world?

"... I can only notice the presence of the video, because it seems odd -"

'You should do as Lord Luon thinks. Nobody's gonna stop you.'

I heard Gark. They only read my thoughts.

'Apparently there is no malice in the existence of demonic surrender... nor do I know how much this trial means. But apparently, a straight hit can lead to you qualifying for weapons. "

"Right... but smashing the enemy in front of you head-on is going to break your bones"

Anyway, the other person is himself... there are certain things that couldn't be copied over there, but on the contrary, he does it in a way that I can't do without hesitation. You wouldn't mind estimating the status quo as mutual.

"I don't know what it's like to surpass you... I didn't know you'd come to a place like this and make your head work desperately"

Exactly extreme, but not too bad for me personally. Never a painful battle. Rather, I also feel comfortable as far as this one is concerned, just for the sake of knowing the intentions of the producer without malice.

Is the fake willing to peek this way out, I just stopped moving a little bit. Apparently, there's time to think. Then...

Get your breath ready...... fight yourself. I honestly can't predict what kind of change I'm going to follow... but I also started feeling a little exhilarated. I squeeze my sword so I can contain it and decide what to do.

"Let's go, demon down"

Tell them toward the demonic surrender that made the fake. At the same time, I had the illusion that video of demonic descent had surfaced behind the copy - I kicked the floor and fleshed to myself.
