Episode 159

[Imperial Swordsmanship ― Second Form]

[Mana Emission]

Claaaang!

My arm and shoulder throbbed with pain.

It was a miracle I didn’t drop the sword in my right hand.

Who attacked me?

The one whose blade was pressed against mine was a masked person.

Whether male or female.

Their entire body was wrapped up so tightly that I couldn’t even guess their age.

“….”

A face hidden behind a mask.

They said nothing at all.

From their attitude of refusing conversation and the way they aimed their sword at my neck.

They intended to subdue me.

Or kill me.

This situation, I feel like I’ve experienced it before?

[Death Space]

Just before the Masked Hunter unleashed their second strike.

I summoned Sir Isra, who I had stored in Death Space.

“How dare!!! What fool threatens my Lord!”

[Aura]

[Imperial Swordsmanship_Modified Isra Style]

[Third Form ― Full Moon Slash]

Thud, the body cut in half collapsed to the ground.

The light of aura, blindingly beautiful and cold.

There was no time to be intoxicated by that radiance.

Masked Hunters surrounding the Blue Rift.

They looked ready to charge at any moment.

[Death Space]

I summoned the Skeleton Guards and Armed Zombie Enhanced soldiers.

Undead soldiers densely surrounding me.

Now I finally felt somewhat at ease.

“The enemy’s numbers are considerable.”

“Indeed.”

Masked Hunters densely surrounded the Gate area.

The Mir Guild staff who were in charge of raid support had their heads buried in the sandy beach or hard rocks.

What was staining the sand red… was their blood.

These people without the slightest movement.

All.

They’re dead.

“Judging by the concentration of blood scent, it seems it hasn’t been long.”

If I had come out even a little later.

There might have been more than one blade swinging at me right after I emerged.

“Master.”

“Yeah.”

A massive mana fluctuation was detected from the rear of the Masked Hunters.

Ingrid also quickly rearranged her mana.

[Magic Union ― Chain Formation]

[Fire Magic]

[A-rank ― Prominence]

[Earth Magic]

[A-rank ― Smashing Ground]

[Lightning Magic]

[A-rank ― Thunder Crash]

[Wind Magic]

[A-rank ― Gust Typhoon]

….

An enormous amount of mana!

Powerful magic was activated in less than a few seconds.

High-grade spells with high destructive power.

Ingrid skillfully cast magic without showing any signs of panic.

[Multiple Chanting]

[Unique Technique ― Eclipse]

[Dig X 20]

[Modified Technique ― Release]

The mana dwelling beneath my feet spread widely.

A considerable amount of mana writhing beneath the ground collided with Ingrid’s energy.

Crackle―

The arrangement twisted just before the magic manifested and was nullified.

[Smashing Ground] itself was activated.

But she canceled it by injecting mana before the earth, which was the medium, could change its properties.

“Remarkable skill.”

It was magic application ability that even Sir Isra, who usually bickered, admired.

“Gegell. Photon Ray.”

Even the five Skeleton Wizards clicked their jawbones.

The completed photon magic spells weren’t fired but remained fixed in the air.

The moment blue flames, fierce wind, and violently flashing lightning approached within arm’s reach.

[Unique Technique ― Eclipse]

[Burst Flare X 5]

[Modified Technique ― Heavy]

She incorporated the spells completed through the Witch Coven’s Skeleton Wizards into her technique.

This was a skill I had seen before.

Whoooosh!

The compressed flames flew in a trajectory.

Whiiing― subduing the fierce wind.

Crackle, softening the lightning’s flash that stimulated the retina.

Boom! Even suppressing the extreme heat.

“Hohoho. Did you see that? Iron Head. This is your sister’s power.”

“You do have the skill to claim to be the strongest witch.”

Sir Isra reluctantly praised her, then briefed on the battle situation.

“Total personnel one hundred seventeen. More than ten A-rank Hunters, the rest all seem to be B-rank Hunters.”

About 70 warrior types.

About 30 magic/priest type Hunters, he said.

The rest were job classes that couldn’t be accurately assessed.

Probably special job classes like mine.

“How about we exchange names before killing each other?”

A Masked Hunter with every part except their eyes covered.

I gestured with my finger at the one emitting particularly strong energy among them, but there was no answer.

What cold bastards.

“Why is it so blocked… huh?”

“What’s going on. Who are those people.”

“Th-the support people who came out are all collapsed!”

The Mir Guild Hunters who followed behind let out panicked words.

Damn.

This is chaotic. You guys.

“Everyone be quiet and stay behind me.”

“Don’t give orders, outsider.”

“Then go ahead and die.”

I’m already in a bad mood, so keep babbling.

When I released some killing intent, the guy called Academy Supervisor flinched and backed away.

“Ah, Uncle.”

“Don’t worry. Yeon-du.”

I promised Madam.

That I’d protect you.

Guys with masks covering their entire bodies.

I’ve fought with guys like that once before.

“I wonder how you crossed the West Sea. Uncle Tourangs.”

“…”

“Swimming? Or did you come by boat.”

“…”

“My mouth hurts from talking alone.”

It feels like having a conversation with Roan, the saint of silence.

At least he used five words per minute, so communication itself was possible.

No need to waste more words with guys like these.

“Please give your orders. Lord.”

“I command the First Sword. Kill all enemies that threaten your Lord.”

“Search and Destroy.”

Sir Isra taking the lead.

“I can’t take care of you, so survive on your own.”

“Don’t worry. Mage. You fulfill your duty too.”

“I won’t let them touch even a hair on Master’s head.”

Ingrid continuously rearranged her mana while conversing.

【Great Lord. I shall target openings.】

[Shadow Step]

Zaugg slipped back and concealed his presence.

【…】

Roan, who could manifest divine spells once per minute, glared at the enemies with sunken eyes.

Swoosh!

The Masked Hunters began charging, kicking up sand.

“Come. I shall slaughter you all.”

With Sir Isra’s murderous tone.

The bloody battle on the uninhabited island began in earnest.

* * *

When enemies swarmed from all directions.

I wasn’t just sitting there twiddling my thumbs either.

[Death Space]

Skeleton Wizard — Summon 20.

I called forth additional Undeads to form ranks.

Just before the Masked Hunters and Undead army clashed weapons.

The priests in the rear knelt on the sandy beach as if collapsing and whispered.

[Divine Spell — Lectio Divina]

A white book that appeared dozens of meters above.

The book manifested by divine power cast white light across the entire uninhabited island.

[You have entered the range of Lectio Divina.]

[The power of beings with chaotic mana is weakened by 20%.]

[The power of unholy beings is weakened by 50%.]

“Kuk.”

Sir Isra, who had been running at the front, bit his lip with his upper teeth.

Cutting abilities in half?

Damn.

This is why priests are called the natural enemy of Undead.

Seeing multiple priest-type Hunters shoulder to shoulder, it seems they’re using their abilities jointly like the initial magic attack.

【Black. Sun.】

[Divine Spell — Black Sun]

Black haze slowly flowing from behind Roan’s back.

Despite being a divine spell, an ominous black current rose toward the sky.

The holy light cast by the book collided with the black current.

Zing! Ziing!

[The effect of Lectio Divina is reduced by 35%.]

Roan’s body trembling violently.

It seems withstanding the enemy priests’ divine spell is all he can manage.

It was enough.

Just reducing the ability decrease penalty significantly was more than pulling his weight.

I can’t just sit here twiddling my thumbs either.

After following in Sir Isra’s footsteps carved on the seashore.

[Death Space]

—Summon 30 Tigris

I called forth the Tigris Group before me.

“Trample the enemies.”

“Krooooo!”

[Ferocious Charge]

[Dead Doping]

Dozens of heavy cavalry wielding bone spears advanced with thundering steps on the sand.

Sir Isra, who had been running ahead, also stepped aside to make way for the Tigris.

“Uooooooo!!”

[Threatening Roar]

The moment an inhuman roar shook my eardrums, my mind was greatly disturbed.

I even felt the impulse to swing my sword at a Masked Hunter holding a tower shield.

“Do not lose consciousness. Lord.”

Ah.

It was a skill imbued with a taunt effect.

Sir Isra’s words snapped me back to attention.

I gave orders to the Tigris Group to ignore it, but it didn’t work.

[Iron Wall]

[Unyielding]

Bang! Bang! The Masked Hunters in tank positions blocked the Tigris Group.

Even the spear power that could turn Ogres into tatters.

Didn’t work properly on that tank line.

It was due to charge damage reduction skills and armor loaded with related options.

[Death Space]

―Recovering 30 Tigris corpses.

I immediately recovered the Tigris group that failed to break through the tank line.

Without hesitation, I glanced back and used [Blink].

The skill penalty made my stomach churn, but there was no problem maintaining my balance.

“Good judgment.”

“The training paid off, didn’t it?”

Right.

I’m tearfully grateful.

The Tigris’s first charge attack was beautifully thwarted.

It’s fine.

I still have plenty of cards left in my hand.

[Gale Knight Order Member Summoning]

Five Abyss Revenants appeared behind Sir Isra.

Befitting monsters crafted from large monster Troll corpses, they had impressive builds.

[Aura]

[Imperial Swordsmanship]

Powerful minions that can all emit aura!

To face aura, the symbol of A-rank warrior-class Hunters, you must clash with the same aura.

“….”

Among the Masked Hunters, those who had been near the Priest and Mage jumped into the front lines.

Whoooosh!

Blue currents dwelling in their swords.

It was the same aura as the Abyss Revenants.

“I wonder how many they mobilized just to catch me.”

Even A-rank Hunters are skilled enough to live comfortably in most countries.

And ten such people were deployed to an uninhabited island?

Really now.

It’s such a low-grade joke that I can’t even let out a chuckle.

“I’ll handle these guys.”

Even if the Gale Knights take on the aura users.

If we can’t break through that tank line, our forces’ damage will accumulate.

The Skeleton Guards and Armed Zombie Enhanced won’t do.

At best, they’ll maintain the status quo.

I summoned additional Skeleton Wizards, but breaking through with magic wasn’t easy either.

Well now.

This has become troublesome.

If I hadn’t strengthened my forces, I might have really been in trouble.

“Now it’s time for you to shine.”

[Death Space]

The last Undeads I summoned.

Blue light blazed from the eyes of two enhanced Dracos and five Death Warriors.
