We couldn't figure out what to do with the monster in front of us, Farsus Testudo.
Fortunately, thanks to the sanctuary of the goddess, we're safe, but we don't have the means to attack Locke from here either.
I've tried adding attacks with Estelle's magic and Friesian arrows, but the beams just fly in return with no damage at all and the surrounding terrain just changes.
But it's strange that we're intact from the other person, and he's staring at us all the time without moving from the spot.
There's no way I'm gonna get out of the sanctuary badly in this situation, and if I don't think about something before the effect time runs out... I don't know if I can take it down in the first place.
Let's ask Irina, who serves one Testudo here.
Maybe he thinks differently than we do.
"Mr. Irina, what do you think I should do?
"Doesn't matter what they say..."
"As far as I'm concerned, I think that's a demon that needs to be defeated. But do you have anything to feel about Irina serving Master Testood? Because if you don't have the means to take them down, it seems better."
I heard what I said. Irina held the pearl in her chest in her arms, and she has a sorry look on her face.
And he mouths his thoughts with a squeezing voice.
"I can't think of any other help either... I think we should knock it down, If that's what you look like, Master Testood, it would be an extra honor to see you. Besides, I do feel the help of Master Testudo. But I don't have the warmth I feel in the temple. It's just a monster with the power of Testood… it's a terrible monster."
Mr. Irina looks at something painful and looks at Falsus Testudo in front of her.
I guess I can't just leave it like that, considering that's the look of a patron saint with a black aura rising from all over his body.
If it's true, even Mr. Irina would want to if she didn't have to defeat him, and a bitter decision is the one.
There was a heartbreaking air in her decision like that, but Sisha spoke up to break it.
"Looks like you've been using your powers since earlier, are you purifying your pearls?
"Yes...... I can't do anything with my power. If only Pearl could wipe out this disastrous power..."
"Then I'll help you, too. Maybe this is the source of that demonic power."
"Hmm, it does have a creepy power"
The pearls that Irina held in her chest were black and cloudy, with a slight leak of a black aura as disastrous as Testudo's.
Looks like Irina is using her powers to put an end to it, but it doesn't reach the main body of the pearl because it eliminates the amount of leakage.
"You got caught up in that demon attack, and you stayed safe without a scratch a lot. Maybe it's what the Patron God left behind."
"Marignant used it to summon, but what is that gem? The strange fog was clear, and the power of the patron saint dwells in it."
Hmm, if I could purify this, could it be a means to defeat that Testudo?
Looks like Marignant used this to summon Testood, like Knoll said, and it might be worth a try.
When Sisha put her hand on Irina's arm, Irina's body began to shine whether she was pouring her power into it.
She also looked surprised when she opened her eyes, but immediately devoted herself to purifying her pearls.
The aura, which was gradually leaking out of the pearl, could disappear, whether it was held back by the force poured in from Sisha.
Furthermore, the pearl body also loses more and more black turbidity, returning to the green that is just dazzling.
As Irina held the pearl in her arms as she meditated her eyes and prayed, the black turbidity completely disappeared from the pearl and returned to its original state.
So Ms. Irina is out of strength, poking her knees to the ground and sweating her breath rough.
"Wow, you're beautiful! Maybe prettier than before it clouded black!
"Ha... ha... thanks to Mr. Sisha for this too. Thank you so much."
"No, I just helped. The thought of Irina's patron saint purified the pearl."
Oh, don't you say something good for Sissy.
Okay, well, I hope I was able to purify it safely, but if this makes any difference...
To meet my expectations like that, the pearls purified by Mr. Irina began to shine.
"Hey, what!? It's glowing!
"What the hell happens this time!?
As we marvel, Irina's pearls emit a warm light.
And when the light healed...... one little green turtle was held in her arms.
"Or tortoise?
"Tortoise-calling is out-of-heart. Even so, I don't have an official name. You should call it the Testudo you named."
Shh, did you talk!? No, there's a voice coming directly into your head!
That's Kako's turtle, tell him to call himself Testood! What do you mean!
While they were all confused, Mr. Irina called out to the turtle with a humble nose and a magnificent attitude.
"Te, are you Master Testood!
'Um, I'm unhappy to expose such a pitiful figure, but I can't help it either. Because I couldn't possibly have materialized if it wasn't for a time like this. Irina, this is how you could have made me look. Let's thank you.'
"Meh, there is no annihilation! It is a supreme joy to give such words to such as I do!
'I have trouble being so awed... not if I'm saying that now. Time is also limited. Let's get this over with. "
Oh, I didn't think Master Testudo would come out if he purified the pearls.
But are you sure this turtle is Testood? Let's check the status at once.

――――――
Hmm, you're very weak, but you seem pretty sure you're a patron saint.
Let's just try to listen.
"Uh, you're really like Testood, aren't you?
"Um, you must be what you call it."
"I wonder if this way we can talk has anything to do with that demon coming out in front of us."
"Oh, succinctly, my consciousness was also drawn to me when my strength gathered to call me. I was able to stay in the crystal of my power that was about to be taken in but Irina's had. And this is how he shows himself using some of the power gathered. If it had been taken in like that, it would have gone wild with it. Now it's a demon that runs around without will."
"Runaway... wouldn't you have been able to control it if that was your help?
'Normally, that's possible. But the other day, someone who was wiped out by my split blew in extra power. It was probably meant to be manipulated after the call, but it wasn't powerful enough. My powers are incomplete and I'm in that state. "
The extra power... there was definitely a black demon in Marignant's inherent abilities.
Could it have been that power that was clouding the pearls black?
He said that the same thing was mixed at the time of the summons, and that Testud-like's split was rampant.
And that black Testudo in front of you is a collection of powers, and now you feel like Testudo with us is conscious?
I'm having trouble with this again.
"So is it okay if I knock you down with that split?
'Don't worry about that. After we defeat the Split, we will send that power everywhere again. I need to go to the Temple of Severia to find out more after I defeat it.
"But that demon looks so strong! How am I supposed to take him down!
"Even if it was rampant, that was just like me. Less than half of your original power, but in the Son of Man... Mm, are you a forest people? '
That? Didn't you just look at Friesia and say something about the forest people?
Could it be that the elves have noticed!? Or does Master Testudo know that there are elves in this world too!
I have a lot to ask you, Master Testood, but is that after we get through this crisis?
I listened to the Testudo-sama, who went on to listen to what I wanted to hear.
'Either way, if you fight properly, you have no chance of winning. But if he's in a state like this, there's a good chance he'll get out of this crisis. "
"What does that mean?
'I told you earlier it was incomplete. In that condition, the force gathered becomes unstable and cannot be maintained by causing some scratches. With my hands there, the power gathered should be scattered.'
Oh! I mean, you don't have to defeat me!
Then maybe we can do something about that Falsus Testudo!
I can't... can I? It's going to be a crackdown, but I can only imagine the sight of being hit the moment I end up out of here.
How do I break through that defense in the first place?
Even Knoll using his skills can't do damage, and Luna is a single attack, even if she ignores defense and magic resistance.
Estelle has already used her skills... there's nothing she can do!
The Sisha and the others had a bright look for a moment, but they are frowning over whether they immediately came to the same idea as me.
"Even if they say that, I think it's even hard to get a scratch if that's the other guy..."
"Even my skills can only be to the extent of chimatima sharpening. Wait for Estelle's skills to recover?
"I think it would be subtle to make a decision because the magic resistance is pretty high, too. You won't recover in the second half of the day. Is there any good way..."
No help hitting it as it stands. Think it's completely packed.
... I have no choice but to use the last resort here.
"All right, then let's bet on this"
That said, I took out my smartphone, picked an item and showed Knoll and the others the screen.
That... is an emergency summons stone.
"Emergency Summoning Stone...... so are you going to call for help?
"Oh, because you're seeing the same eyes as Marignant when you fight normally like this. There may be nothing you can do where there are more worst helpers..."
"Still, more can be done than is currently the case. It's worth a shot."
"Right. I think this is the kind of item you use."
Using the Emergency Summoning Stone, we can call other UR units than the Knolls present here.
But with this one more person, I don't know if I can do any damage to Falsus Testudo.
In this case, it would be Theory to have the offense, defense, and magic resistance lowered in a supportive position, also a spell-like debuff system, rather than in a combat position.
If anything else comes... now I just have to pray for my luck to heaven.
Mr. Irina and Lady Testood are tilting their necks because they don't know what the story means.
"Then let's go!
I was ready so whoever could come, and tapped the emergency summons stone.
[Do you want to use the Emergency Summoning Stone?] appears on the screen and naturally selects Yes.
Light overflows from the smartphone, and light forms in the shape of a person in the air.
Seeing the sight, Mr. Irina and Lady Testood have their eyes open as if surprised.
That's how the called UR unit was...... a brunette girl with brown skin.
She looks like a black mini dress with her thighs exposed, but doesn't look lightweight with protective gear on both hands and feet.
It produces two black horns from the left and right of the head, and a bumpy tail from inside the skirt.
Ko, is this girl, no way!?
"- His name is Karon. Is that who the Lord calls me?
Named after her, she was staring down at us with her golden eyes.
