The Witch, Who Once Was Called A Saint

In the dark, so much magic - that Astreia finds it unfortunate that it is never a good being.

"But... after you defeat Kimyra, you can say what an adank it is."

Adank is a warcraft who prefers caves near the lake.

Has a torso reminiscent of a giant rat on a sharp, long nail, but is more agile than it looks, and has a higher ability to kill nails. They used to be as hard as they used to make weapons out of those nails.

Adank has the nature of eating young people, but fortunately there are only old people here, so I guess he wasn't attacked.

"Well, shall I honor you for counting me as a young man?

But it's dangerous to have to fit more than just start rambling once.

I want to take some distance and measure the timing, but Adank has a hard time jumping into his nostalgia quickly.

(Thanks to the mazui mountain vegetable juice just now, you're doing so well)

Adank popped out as Astraia caught wind of her body.

Jumping back Astraia kicks up the ground and now jumps over Adank to take the back. But Adank also moves quickly and tries to approach Astreia again.

(After all, it's impossible to buy time with zero magic use, right?)

The moment he made that decision, Astreia shook up her right hand and released the grain of ice towards Adank.

I'm fully aware it won't be a lot of damage, but now I can afford just a little. Where Adank was a little frightened, Astreia released a kick from the front.

Adank flew flashy and hit a tree.

It's not like I can't physically. But I'm just not strong enough to make you toddle.

(Adank, oh, I can see and get hit hard!

So if you don't amputate with something sharp, victory isn't coming around.

Adank, who was attacked, went low and exposed the intimidation.

But you can't be intimidated, but what Astraia does is the same.

"You have to hang up, you have to"

That's how Astreia refined it: the ice knife.

I would have liked to stab him at a distance, but unfortunately Adank is not a demon who stops moving where he stabbed the blade. I need plenty.

Nevertheless, it does not test the power of a pure sword.

"It's only with the help of the wind."

Hold down the Adank that was about to fly, with a strong wind.

Astreia, on the other hand, rode the wind and jumped straight into the adank.

And I tried its neck, and waved down its sword at once.

"Okay, is it over?

It was easier than I thought.

But what Astraia thought was for a while, and from what was supposed to have been Adank's wreckage - I felt disgusted. Astraia, surprised to jump back, kept her sword in place and saw "something" coming out from under Adank's severed neck.

The "something" was an adunk that was bigger than the previous adunk, both round and around the lid.

"... with peeling. But is it?

To exfoliate, it is clearly a mass that does not fit in the body - though I think so, Astreia returned to the fighting posture again.

My face is getting a little pinched.

(It's too big, it might be hard for me to slash it...... I don't have that much arm strength, and I guess I'll have to make a stronger wind and push it together......?

But even if it gets huge, Adank is an adank, so he won't struggle so hard - yes, he caught his guard, but he retightened his mind.

"Man, I'm sensitive to the danger of life."

That's what the old woman said.

That sense of crisis is faint for Astreia that she will not die.

And there's no such thing as' someone could die 'right now, as in Kimyra's time.

(But right now, if I'm caught off guard, it could lead to some annoyance)

Identify him well, just, knock him down.

With that in mind, Astreia took Adank's shaken nails with an ice blade. But the giant Adank's nails were more shocking than I imagined.

Strengthen the ice sword that is about to crumble to become stronger. Bishy Bishy and Icey.

(even so, heavy!!)

Astreia distances herself from Adank with full force and the power of the wind caused by witchcraft, but now, I wondered why we should fight, precisely then.

Who would have imagined, such as Adank's head suddenly dancing into the universe?

"... to?

Is it a suicide bomber?

It was only for a moment that Astraia thought so.

Behind that Adank falling in slow motion, I didn't imagine Ios standing or anything.

Unlike Astraia at night, it shouldn't be possible for Ios to recognize his opponent in this darkness. But there is a red demonic stone shining on Ios' chest, blurring and reflecting his contours. Therefore, he will also be able to look around in blur - and at the same time, understanding, Adank defeated the giant to the ground and also stopped moving with Pickle.

"... Ios, why are you here?

Astreia crushed flashly as she paid for the blood on her sword and watched Ios put it in her sheath. Let's go back before I make you worry...... the operation splashed brilliantly, but I don't care about that anymore. I do think it's time to catch up with the old lady, given the time she traveled on her back, and the time she was staying.

(WOW!?)

Ios approached - I thought, suddenly hugged from the front and Astreia couldn't even speak. Ios, on the other hand, had a sigh that he could clearly see as a relief.

"Worried"

"... sorry, I've got a little errand to run"

"An errand, this demon?... If it was a crusade, I wanted you to speak up. You fell just now, and you're in danger."

"... sorry. But the place, how..."

"No, I wish I was safe. The demon stone told me where it was. You're scared of the demon stone I have, because I'm gonna go against it."

... Do demon stones have such power?

With that in mind, but the important story now, it's not.

"Sorry, no, I didn't come here to feel any sign of a demon..."

It could have been one thing I could have defeated. No, I think I could take him down.

But I was glad you were here.

"Um, thank you. Thanks."

And Astreia blurred that maybe I could say it now......

"Hey, Ios. I want to live with Ios."

"Huh?"

"... Huh?

What did I just say?

Astraia thought, and played her own voice in her head - and screamed.

"Oh, wrong......!! Chi, no!!"

"Oh yeah, hey, let's calm down...!?"

"Because I said it wrong, I said it wrong!! Because the order is just different colors!!"

Astraia's screams and Ios's similar voice echoed in the woods.
