The Branded Female Fencer

"... well... I can deal with him, but I want to show you guys something... and if I can take this guy down safely, I'll deal with him straight away... yes..."

Lifeless turns toward Fenna.

"... remember the story I used to... bring to you?

"Huh?"

Lifeless does.

"... if you come with me, I told you I'd let you see your people, didn't I?

"... is that what it is?

"... cut the numbness because you won't come... I brought you... huffy..."

"Say what..."

At that moment, a giant creature appeared, trying to snap down the trees that were burning around him. The organism, bipedal, was a giant well above Gigantes and more than 4 m long. Your hands are unusually long, and if you spread your hands, they will be longer than your body. There is no head, there is a big mouth on the part where the head should be, from which tentacles like isoginchuk crawl out scattering covetousness. Funny thing, I didn't see my eyes anywhere. How the demon recognized the Alphilis, but when he put the Alphilis in the front, he shouted with a tall voice that cracked his head open.

"Kishaaaaaa!"

"Gu!?

"My head... is going to crack"

"... They say this guy's name is Dantalion... and I don't have a hobby for naming demon kings... but there are guys who like that..."

"A demon king?

"What do you mean?

The Alphilis looked up at the monster in front of them with a stunned gaze, more than with horror.

"... you didn't know?... The Demon King is made by us..."

"What!?

"Make a demon king... make?

"... yes... but these guys are not like demon kings who have been sweeping the continent for a long time... demon kings who have been on the continent for a long time are purely things that demons and warcraft have joined forces to form an inmate party... these are the synthetic creatures we created (chimeras)... they are forced to contract it with oaks and goblins to tailor it to demon kings... that's what..."

"You talk to perky a lot. You know, tell that to the Atassis."

Miranda looks surprised. But it is a particular question.

"... it doesn't matter... the production of these guys is already progressing too fast... no one can stop them anymore... the production is in the next phase..."

"No way, there are dozens of these?

"... no, daughters of beasts... not dozens, but thousands..."

Everyone gets upset about a lifeless word. Alphilis and the others who couldn't keep up with their thoughts for a moment to talk about too much scale.

"... sooner or later these guys will run around the earth endlessly... can they stop the demon king's flock from fulfilling it to the humans?... Even Miriazal won't be able to deal with thousands of demon kings at the same time..."

"Oh, no."

"I'll stop it!

Alphilis comes forward. Lifeless who mocks (bruises) at the look of it.

"... stop?... with a fragile human flair?... I mean interesting..."

"Stop and show! Here and now, knock you down!!

"... it's an interesting joke... try..."

Dantalion resumed advancing when Lifeless rattled his fingers, pattin.

"... dantalion... basically a live catcher... especially the leading tall woman and the woman with the giant mace. Don't kill her... you can dispose of the worst afterwards..."

"gillulululululu"

Dantalion takes a step as he sprinkles his covetousness. With such a loss to the Dantalion, Alphilis also leaves a step forward.

"You come directly, lifeless!

"... don't rush... the boss's turn is later and the market is set..."

"Alfi, just focus on this guy!

In one word of Miranda, everyone rests on Dantalion. Apparently, Lifeless is thorough bystanders. The Alphilis and the others were all angry minded, but not without calm. Even the provoked alphilis of the day had inner relief when it came to him not calling. If you want to fight, one at a time. That must be easier.

The Alphilis and the others scattered as they approached the Dantalion, but from a considerable distance, the Dantalion shook its arms like the Marutai.

"No way?"

"Everybody, fly!

Lisa's voice makes everyone jump. Near and aerial are physically fine, but Miranda uses her own mace for bar-high jumping procedures. Alphilis uses a short curse of the wind to aid in the leap. Dantalion's arm swept off the ground beneath it.

"What a blow"

Nia shouts her amazement unexpectedly. Dantalion's blow was completely over the ground. And when he checks the alphilis, who can't move in the air, his mouth opens all over Dantalion's body.

"Huh?"

"Shit!

The moment Dantalion tries to spit something out, something is thrown into one of its mouths and explodes at the same time.

"I've seen him before. You remember one of the fools!

"Nice, Miranda!

Miranda threw in the bomb at the same time that Dantalion opened his mouth. I guess I was reading the demon king's pattern of action. It's a unique Miranda decision with a lot of experience.

And at the same time as the landing, Aerial and Alphilis cut in.

"Ha!

"Eat!"

Alphilis slashes the Dantalion with a great sword, and Aerial pokes the Dantalion in a straight line with a spear. Aerial's blow also adds rotation, so he shredded Dantalion's flesh-by-meat body, but Alphilis' sword was blocked by Dantalion's thick muscles. But...

"Magic Added - Blast Flame (Bomb)!

"Gao ooo!!

Alphilis' sword wraps around the flames and determines Dantalion's body. Blood splashes with pieces of flesh, a dantalion that doesn't happen to scream.

This is what Alphilis trained under the Phalanx. In physical strength, man has limits. Faranx, it seems that if you can manipulate something called 'chi', you can exert more power than normal, but the training takes a lot of days, and the strength of your original body is important, so the limits are known to Alphilis, who is a woman, even if she fixes the way she handles her chi.

So what Faranx presented was an improvement in combat ability using magic additions. The same goes for earlier leaps, but this method is very useful for alphilis that can use multi-system magic. Movement can be assisted by wind systems, and strength can be assisted by soil and gold systems. It is also possible to increase the ability to kill with fire and ice. From time to time arrows and the like were reinforced by wind sorcery, why didn't they come up with this method, rather that was more strange for Alphilis.

But of course there are shortcomings and caveats. It does not reinforce the body itself, so even if it moves at high speeds using wind magic, for example, the flesh is not made to move at that speed, which makes it more burdensome than necessary. It is good to accelerate the movement of the sword with another explosion, but the strain on the arm is considerable, and of course the wound to the sword itself is severe. It was also a dangerous way for Alphilis to lose his ability to use healing magic if he made a mistake.

But it's also very effective. The fact is Dantalion was badly damaged.

"All right, Fenna!

"Yes!"

Fenna is in the magic chant. I'm good at Land Tsunami (Earth Wave). Fenna tries to activate that magic exactly.

"Go!"

"F, Fenna..."

Everyone stops moving to the voice that called Fenna from nowhere. Fenna also looks at how things are with the magic just before it is activated.
