The Branded Female Fencer

Winter Visit, Part 24 - Unknown Battle ⑥ -

"Phew, phew"

Minar was running. He sacrificed his dominant arm and made a flash of gap in Hidun. Even so far, he didn't have the willingness to fight until the end. We fought once, too, to escape. In this task, Minar did not feel the need to fight at all.

"Almost."

Instead of heading for the exit, Minar was heading further back. I thought it would be easy to get out of the workshop like this, and most importantly, he had a purpose. I'm not the one who can win as I am. I can't even ignore it. It is also difficult to escape. That is how he draws one conclusion.

This facility and, if possible, bring two enemies on the road. Which way can the magic you planted in this facility be activated without Minar? I wanted to destroy it in one workshop if there was not much prospect of it being helpful anyway. The infiltration is already broken. It was visible that the security of the other workshops would also be strengthened, and it was Minar's decision that it was now pointless to carry out simultaneous attacks.

"You're out of shape. Now I can't get ahead of myself."

Minar bites his lips, but there's nothing he can do now. A hot pain ran on Minar's arrow tip, his left ankle, which Minar thought should be more focused on in front of him than that, and he collapsed on the spot.

"Hey, what!?

When Minar checked his feet to see what had happened to him, there was already no bottom from his left ankle. The reality that there was no immediate severe pain running, but no legs, shocked him more than the pain. I hear voices from the bottom of the earth, as I chase him further.

"That's why I was going to advise you not to be alarmed. You listen to what people say."

It was the shadow of the Minar that I thought was the bottom of the earth. The body crawling out of the shadows quickly turns into the appearance of an earlier enemy. He stared at Hidun in such a way that he couldn't believe it even with a minar.

Hidun kicked his belly as he looked down at such a minar, and he didn't happen to swoop away. Tell him like he's won, kicking him over and over again as he rolls around blowing blood.

"I can't hide my surprise. Let me tell you something, poor you. This is also a form of metastasis. It's a magic trick that allows the transition from shadow to shadow. There's a magic trick called" Shadow Sewing, "right? It's a magic trick that allows you to transfer to a marked shadow."

"Gu, fu... I see, the earlier blood attack"

"Yes, the only thing I was willing to hit on you was the one that changed the last track. After that, I struck into your shadow while I was disturbed. Well, it was insurance, but you can drive. Might get away with it some way. But it seems to have helped. Oh, by the way, this magic won't disappear until you die or I disarm it. It is no longer possible to escape in any way. You were wrong to be relative to me."

Hidun, while convinced of the victory, confirmed his surroundings. This magic is not as convenient as he describes it. Because the destination cannot be known. If the shadow had occurred, for example, on the water, he would suddenly be a drowning feather immediately after the metastasis. More dangerous than normal metastases were witchcraft.

And when he checked the perimeter, that was where the workshop was abandoned. This place at the end of the line has a big hole behind the minar. Among them is an ugly creature that can be described as an evil hobby warcraft unleashed by Anomaly. They're like large mites. They always make you hungry, eat and digest everything. Anomaly named them "Hungry Ghosts". They are the cleaners of the workshop. If they could eat it, it wouldn't leave exactly any bones.

It was Hidun who kicked Minar into this place, but I wasn't sure why the intruder was headed in this direction. Because there wasn't supposed to be anything here. It's in the opposite direction to the exit, and most importantly, the compartment of cultures where Anomaly is producing the Demon King is a little further away. Hidun glanced back at Minar.

"Intruder. Why did you come in this direction? You knew there was nothing here, didn't you?

"Heh, heh. Well, I wonder why."

"Let's not be ridiculous."

A bullet in Hidun's blood struck Minar's right thigh directly. A minar that doesn't happen to be extinguished.

"Ha, ha."

"Now throw up. At least let him die easy."

"Because... is good"

"What?"

Minar's voice was blurred and heard. When Hidun finished his ears trying to listen back, I felt the cave air chill.

"... wind?

"I said it would be convenient, because this is the end of the line."

Minar said clearly and showed his left hand palm. There was still blood on his left thigh when he held it down, but there was some kind of tattoo on his hand in the form of blood. When he saw it, Hidun noticed. That Minar barely used his left hand during the battle. When I use it, I mostly run away. It was mostly the left hand that would support his body. Hidun thought it was a minar habit, but it is unlikely that those who deal with physical surgery would leave that blatant habit behind. In melee combat, fists are meaningless if they cannot be used evenly from left to right.

"Hey, you. No way from the beginning..."

"Shit, let me set you up. Oh, yeah. I've been setting this up since the beginning, I... Apparently, you were the dumb one."

At the same time the tattoo on Minar's left hand glowed, the wind began to blow inside the workshop. of vast caves, even deep.

"Ko, this is"

"Now, can you escape?

Minar laughed.

Around that time, at the entrance to the cave, a giant tattoo of the same shape as Minar's palm was activated into the universe. Converge the ambient atmosphere and send them into the cave. It was simple to do, but in terms of scale it was a sorcery classified as quite a bit of higher sorcery. Beside it stood Espis and Linella, Minar's belly. They are both deeply dressed in monastic and sisterly clothing hoods, and the look on their faces is irreplaceable. Speaking of commonalities, they had a number of large hemp bags gripped in their hands.

"Are you ready?

"Oh, as per the meeting"

They untied the strings tying the mouth of the bag and began to scatter the contents into the cave. The contents of the bags are powder and they are quickly transported into the cave on the wind. No matter how small the grain is, it will not arrive if it is normal. But this wind is not a normal wind; it was caused by Minar in sorcery. There was also a magically activated place in the cave that could be considered a number of relay points, and the particles never stalled somewhere in the cave.

It was big enough bags for people to put in, but two people sprinkling them one after the other. The colors of the bag are blue and red. And after sowing all the bags, Espis lit a fire in his hand.

Archbishop, take your martial arts.

And the fire of Espis was kindled in the wind, and bounced heavily into the powder; and it became a fire, and went into the cave.

"What noise!?

Hidun is nervous inside without grasping things. He cleared his ears and explored the source of the sound, so much so that he swallowed things up.

"Hey, you. What 'd you do?

You'll find out soon enough.

Now he smiles like Minar has won. That's how he let himself leap into the hungry. By the time Hidun thought so much, there was a dragon of fire looming behind him.

"Chi, escape with metastasis..."

An explosion suddenly broke out over his head as Hidun tried to escape with a metastasis. It was with a flash of Hidun's gap that Minar set off a bomb toward heaven as he jumped in. Hidun suddenly forgot the possibility that Minar still had the bomb hidden in his nostrils. Even if there were, I would be able to do something about it with practicing magic. Seriously, I couldn't imagine that the bomb was more powerful than the bomb. In addition, practicing magic and metastasis cannot be used at the same time. This was also a bet for Minar, but his predictions were brilliant. He was disturbed by the overhead shock. Hidun was devoured by the fiery dragon before activating his metastasis.

And that was the same with Anomaly. He was immersed in his own research, so he realized for the first time that he was in imminent danger when the lab door was blown open. And Anomaly was swallowed by the sea of flames.
