Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Chapter 564 Measures
The smoke ball is just an item that generates smoke, so if you use it outside or have a large number of opponent's wizards, you'll be flooded with wind magic immediately, so you have to think about where to use it, but if you can clear it, it will be quite a comforting item for me and Pilte.
According to Cynthia, even though it deprives the opponent of vision, they can't see themselves, so basically, they only use it to run away, hide their appearance, and temporarily end the battle. Therefore, it is extremely rare to use it during the battle. However, Pirte and I have sharp ears and noses.
The sound of the opponent's breathing, the metal sound of the armor rubbing against each other, the sound of his feet hitting the ground when he moved in a hurry, the smell of blood flowing from his injury, the smell of his body... Since they show the position of the opponent, there is no need for sight.
I'll take it down by the time the wind magic blows me out!
Yes!
With our sight completely lost, Pilate and I will launch an assault on the enemy soldiers.
What's going on?!
I can't see in front of you!
Suddenly, the vision became black, and several people were in a hurry to speak out and try to cooperate.
Even if you keep quiet, Pilte and I will know where you are, but if you can speak up, it will be easier for us to know where you are more accurately.
Shh, shh!
"Giaaa!"
Snap!
Guhaha!
Pilte and I quietly approached the slave who was shouting and took him down one by one.
Wh-Where is it?!
When I hear the screams of my companions, a few people shout again.
Tattoo!
Through the smoke, Pilte and I move in a straight line, closer to the enemy soldiers. Even if we're running straight, no one can catch us, and the attack never comes. Vampire-style attacks sometimes overwhelm enemies. This is a good example of this. However, Mina is as sharp as us, so don't be alarmed.
Shh, shh, shh!
Guhaha!
I kept slaughtering my enemies in the black smoke.
Mother! Magic is coming!
Now that Pilte and I are completely in control of the field, the opponent can do very little. First of all, it is absolutely necessary to secure the sight.
Maina may know where Piltee and I are, but she can't take me and Pilte down just by giving instructions from behind. Therefore, I told my minions about the general position of Piltee and smashed my magic into it. That's all we need to do to damage me and Pilate in this situation.
Therefore, neither I nor Pilte were wary of the magic that would entangle my people.
When Pilté sensed the magic and told me about it, he moved to the right.
Goww!
Za, za, za, za, za!
”” ”” ”Guahhhhh!” ”
It was wind magic that could attack me and Piltee while blowing black smoke. However, Pilte and I quickly evacuated the scene and evaded the attack perfectly. However, some of the slaves become magic prey and are wounded by the attacks of their allies. Even though wearing armor doesn't kill us, it still does a lot of damage, so it doesn't have to work in our favor.
I have seen many attacks involving my people as a means of bringing in the Minas and the Puppets.
Certainly, if an attack suddenly flies from behind to kill our allies during a battle, it will be difficult for us to evade and we will be more likely to take heavy damage during the battle.
From the opponent's point of view, if you can defeat us, you may think it's good, but in reality, it's a very dangerous move.
This is because if the target dodges an attack and only one of their allies is swallowed up in the attack, they will reduce their number and help the opponent.
This is something I don't have to understand, and anyone can imagine.
I don't think Maina is stupid either, so I know that, but I think it's probably because she's in quite a hurry to dare to use up a few attacks.
Five men have taken away ten thousand soldiers, and they have come into the mansion, and they are approaching before their own eyes. I don't think you'd expect to be able to defeat such an opponent with a few slaves.
No matter how many dozen or hundreds of slaves you put in, if you can't defeat us, you can only use it as a tool to stop your feet... I think you're thinking about it.
I don't see the slaves as a fighting force, but I think the result of using them and thinking that we can defeat them in a way that exceeds our expectations will lead to an attack like this.
Sure enough, one step at a time, it's time for our attack to reach Maina's throat. If we can get that close, we will win there.
"Over there! Build a wall!"
Stay away from Maina-sama!
Already, the number of remaining slaves has fallen to more than ten, and when we begin to see the future that will dominate this place.
"... you're really strong."
As she approached the sight of Mina and the remaining slaves, Mina opened her mouth.
“There's a big reason we can't lose.”
Pilte answers Mina's words without putting them in her hair.
"That's why I can't lose... but it's over here."
Gee.....
When Maina said that, the two doors that slaves were passing through when they were added earlier opened.
"... is that right..."
It seems that Minor also fully understood that attacking with a barista lacks certainty, and that it is necessary to consider avoiding the solution.
Minor's solution was a two-stage stance.
First of all, let's all take on the attacker and drain it firmly. They launched an attack with a weapon called a barista, and if they weren't able to defeat it, it was a last resort plan.
The last maneuver was two figures that emerged from behind Maina.
"Surrrr......"
Eyelids (eyelids) are not visible on the surface of the body, which is green and rough. Yellow eyes. A bipedal creature with sharp claws and fangs, one bigger than the human race, has its elongated tongue twisted in and out.
Scales (apples).
That is the name of the two races that appeared.
The Scales, to put it simply, look more like monsters than people, with reptile creatures like lizards and snakes walking on two legs. However, I have heard that they are usually intelligent, can have conversations, and build and live in a village.
The slightly ambiguous expression is that this Scales are very few in number compared to other races, are rarely seen on the continent, and few people know the details.
Incidentally, it is not a demonic race, it is a race that is not in the demonic world, and what it sees is a very unusual race.
However, it is not a race that no one knows, and when speaking of the Scales, most people react by saying that they have not seen it but have heard of it...
When I went outside the demon world and collected various information in various places, I became quite familiar with other things besides what I wanted to know, and I heard about the Scales several times.
According to the story, the Scales are species that prefer hot and humid areas such as wetlands, and because the number is small, they do not appear in public places. In the secrets where the Scales' villages are nearby, it seems that occasionally people come out of the wetland to barter, but basically they do not attach importance to the connection with the outside.
In addition, the Scales have high physical abilities and are far removed from people in appearance, so they may be targeted for fear...
As you can see from the appearance, their physical abilities are closer to monsters and reptiles than people's, and they can also sense vibrations and temperature changes sensitively.
Anyway, because they are a completely different race from humans, they are sometimes treated as monsters, and as vampires, we are also a species that feel a little close.
When I say physical ability is high, I'm curious about how much it is, but if it is close to the physical ability of the monster, it means that it is a very strong species, but in fact, I don't know how strong it is.
The two Scales are shackled and seem to be forced to listen to Maina's orders, so they silently walk toward us.
Unlike those of other races, I can barely read their facial expressions, so I don't know if they're here now because of their emotions.....
If you didn't put these two in from the beginning and prepared them as your backhand, they are not very obedient, and if only the rest of them can take care of us, I think you can think of them as rebellious to the extent that it seems better. If you didn't dare to bring out the Scales, even though you still have a strong fighting force, you should be able to see that if they came out, they could be in the way of other slaves.
I don't know when and where we captured and enslaved the two Scythians, but... we're already deep in the formation of the Minas, and we have no choice but to fight the two Scythians.
"Kill the two women in front of you!"
………………
The Scythe did not say anything to Maina's words, and after seeing Maina sideways for once, they turned to us.
I don't know much about the Scales, but as far as I can see, I don't seem to obey Maina's orders honestly.
If Maina had left it as a trump card, it would be stronger than a barista to be sure she could take us down. If you don't know how much it is, it is not a good idea to hit it directly from the front.
“No matter how strong, the difference in physical abilities between races won't be easy to close!”
Mina seems to be confident that the two Scythians can win with certainty, and she can't see the colour of anxiety in her eyes.
"You're such a disgusting woman."
As Maina said, depending on the race, there is a great opening for its physical ability and magic power.
For example, in terms of physical ability alone, there is a difference that the human race is higher than the elf race, and the beast race is higher than the human race. In terms of magic power, there is something inherent in the Elves being the highest, or in those like the Giants being unable to beat any race in power.
Therefore, if the Scythe's physical abilities become extremely high, neither I nor Pilte might be able to deal with them.
No matter how hard and powerful the human race is, no matter how much they compete with the Giants for power, they will never win.
Pilte and I are vampires, and we have higher physical abilities than humans and beasts, but when asked if we have physical abilities close to monsters, we are not so close to the Rock.
Depending on the training and fighting methods, we can do something similar, and even if it is a pure blood species, it is not exaggerated to say that it is close to a monster, but it is a pure blood species, and it is a power that we do not have.
If only two Scythians had the strength of a pureblood level... I might not be able to beat them honestly.
"Mother..."
Pilte seems to be wondering what to do because he has heard of the Scythians, so he asks me for instructions on what kind of battle to carry out.
Cynthia, Nilchan, and Suratan are fighting across the wall from each other to prevent enemy soldiers from coming. Here, I'll give you instructions and get around well.
"I can't help it... until I grasp the strength of the opponent, I'll put safety first." Anyway, be careful not to be attacked and try to avoid it. ”
Got it.
The Scales are almost like lizards, but their hands seem to be dexterous, and they have a trident called a trident. Although the size and length are no different from ordinary Tridents, the materials used seem to be good and it looks like a pretty good weapon.
"Surrrr......"
Two Scythe tribes that repeatedly put their tongues in and out. I heard you could speak, but you two didn't try to speak anything.
I don't know what I'm thinking, it looks hard, I can't read the other person's appearance, and I can't get my hands on it.
It seems that the two Scythians are taking orders and setting up weapons for us, so they're going to fight, but they're not going to set us up at once, and they're going to have time to find their way out of each other.
While observing each other's movements for a few seconds...
Bassin!!
Suddenly, a dry sound like a bursting sound resounded, and Pilté and I concentrated, stiffening our bodies for a moment.
It seems that the sound was caused by the Scythe clamming their tail against the floor, and it seems that it was an action to create a gap between me and Piltee.
Due to the sudden loud noise, the movement of Piltee and me stopped slightly, and as they pushed into the gap, two Scythe tribes jumped into our space.
”Ngh!!”
Phew! Phew!
The two of them attacked me and Pilate one by one. Poke at me, and attack Pilate with a payout.
Both Pilate and I were only delayed for a moment, but we attacked firmly.
The Scythians were moving faster than I expected, and the power was still there to see the power of the spear that was pushed out.
Hah!
Haa!
Boom! Boom!
Pilte and I run the Shadow Owl and try to attack the Scythe, but both of us hold on to the attack and move away once and for all.
If you're in the vampire class, you probably have the strength of a thin-blooded species.
We're still in the midst of a petty reconnaissance, and it might be too early to make up our minds... but I think it's just as strong as us.
However, the reciprocal angle is only about physical abilities, and we still don't know what will happen if we move using the unique abilities of the race.
"It's fast... right?"
“Yeah… be careful. If you lose your temper, you'll be killed all at once."
Yes.
"...... You really are a troublesome woman."
Until now, the slaves' puppets have been quite tormented.
Even though it's almost time to end it, Maina is a persevering and troublesome woman. At the end of the day, I can't believe you're putting out a trump card called the Scythe...
"Surrrr......"
Looking at the movements of Piltee and me, the two Scythemen seem to have become more vigilant.
"The smoke curtain... doesn't seem to work."
"I don't know if I have to try, but... it probably won't work."
Judging from the appearance of the Scales, they don't seem to be relying on sight, and even if they perhaps took away their sight, they should be able to see where we are. If we take away our sight poorly, we could be at a disadvantage. "I think it's a good idea to fight here..." In terms of winning or not, I honestly think it is five minutes and five minutes, but if you do something strange, you are likely to strangle them.
"Pilate, we're going to do something about this place without the miniatures."
"... yes."
Recently, I have been working with Cynthia and the others, and there are very few situations where I and Pilate can fight alone. That's why we're a little nervous about fighting together, but we're not in a position to be defended, we're in a position to be defended.
I told you to leave it to Mina, so I'll definitely dominate this place with Pilate.
"Surrrr......"
Every time the Scythe people pull their tongues in and out, they hear a unique sound, and from time to time, a translucent transient membrane (shunmu) covers their eyelidless eyes.
"Hoo..."
At first glance, I had Minor in my sight, but so far I hadn't shown any signs of escape.
If this Scythe is the trump card, then maybe Mina will join the fight at the right time. If you think you won't lose to us in the unlikely event, everyone will know that it's best to work with the Scythians, who have the same strength as us, to create a three-on-two composition.
Me and Pilte would like to do some damage to the Scales before that happens.
"Pilate, please turn right." I'll deal with the left. Be careful about Mina, too. ”
Yes.
What we mean here is not to fight separately, but mainly to decide which side will be the opponent. You don't have to go out of your way to tell Pilate that, so I won't tell anyone.
When the two of them set up a shadow owl in front of the Scythe, the two of them set up a Trident.
Although it may feel like a slow battle, it's normal to have almost no difference in strength and to be alert to each other. However, the time is really a moment, and it almost always ends quickly, so you have to be careful.
"Surrrr...!"
Damn!!
It was the Scythians on the right who kicked the floor vigorously after having pushed their tongue in and out once.
Since Pilte and I are standing at a distance of about two meters, we can roughly tell which direction we are going to strike. The Scales headed toward Piltee.
I was expecting a two-to-two mixed battle, but the Scales on the left weren't trying to move and were staring at me. If I move and Pilte and the two of us try to defeat the right Scythians, the left Scythians will be free, so we will allow them to attack from the side. If that happens, it will be like a simple assault, and I and Pilate will be at a disadvantage. Are you aiming for it or stopping my legs? To avoid it, you can either watch Piltee fight in silence, wait for the left Scales to move, or defeat the right Scales by themselves in an instant that won't make it in time to intercept them.
