Chapter 360: Battle against a Semi-Transparent Orc

“Nnn, nyaa~” Divine Beast Rollodeen meows while having her tentacles head our way as she circles in the sky.

Shes greeting Helme while entwining a tentacle around her body.

“Fufu, Im sorry for avoiding your greeting earlier, Rollo-sama――”

Helme is being tightly hugged by Rollos tentacle.

And then Rollo begins to play around with Helme as if imitating a sky trampoline, lifting Helmes body up and down.

“Hauuu~ Please treat my butt kindly, Rollo-sama――”

“Puyuyu Puyuuuu.”

I cant see Puyuyu because its so small.

“Ive caught you, Puyuyu~”

“Ahahaha, Puyuyus legs are so tiny~~”

“Puyuyuu~”

“Did we finally reach paradise Ill do my best!”

“Even though we havent even negotiated yet, the prospects look grim.”

“Its still too early…you got to challenge your negotiation partner with a mindset along the lines of, 「What cannot be achieved with the power of one man can still be achieved with the power of many」.”

“――Oh Shuuya, so you can also jump through the sky! However, I cant really look ahead since Divine Beast-samas fur blocks my sight!”

Everyone happily chats away on Rollos back.

The grandpas and grannies, including Gramps Ton, admonish the young folks.

“Voices and weird noises of the people Your Excellency brought along…and I can also see a lively beastwoman among them…” Helme comments while casting a sidelong glance at my entourage as shes being toyed with by the tentacle.

It sounds like shes curious about Puyuyu and Higlias voices.

Higlia with her conspicuous silver attire is visible, but…Puyuyus tiny body and the children are out of sight.

For the time being…we should hurry back to Quiches village――

“――Rollo, follow slowly as you have everyone with you.

If the battle should be violent――”

As soon as she hears my words, Rollo stops playing with Helme, reeling her tentacle back into her chest with a whoosh, and then extends sharp claws from her paws, making it look like shes getting ready to fight.

“…Your Excellency, theres still something I have not told you yet.”

“Hmm, what is it”

“Most of the orcs have already been annihilated thanks to the strenuous efforts of Catiza and the Burning Knights under the command of Commander-in-Chief Quiche.

Thus the village is safe for the moment.”

I see, thats a relief, I guess.

Well, I suppose its only to be expected with Catiza and the Burning Knights being over there.

“However, I cannot exclude the possibility of an ambush by an enemy as of yet.

Moreover, in addition to the roaring of trolls, a huge, semi-transparent orc is currently eating the corpses of its former allies at a spot further away from the villages front.”

Troll voices and a semi-transparent orc

“Whats up with it eating the corpses”

“I dont know any details since we havent fought it, but it might be the orcs secret weapon.”

“Okay, I got it.

I suppose we dont need to hurry if the orcs have a falling out.

Anyway, since its faster for me to see it with my own eyes, come back into my eye, Helme――” I beckon her over with my left hand.

Its a gesture carrying the meaning of “Hey, come on!”

“Certainly――” Helme breaks into a broad smile after seeing my gesture.

In the next instant, she turns into a fervent spiral while rushing into my left eye, just as usual.

Immediately following, a tiny, smiling Helme-chan manifests at the edge of my visual field.

“Eh Inside his eye…”

Having watched everything from near proximity, Kisara is astonished.

She probably cant see how the tiny Helme is swimming around in my visual field, but still stares at my left eye.

“A Demonic-Eye-like small mark has…”

“Hey, Stranger.

Are your eyes something like the Focale I stole from Schmihazar” 1

For some reason Rotalz calls me a Stranger… If I recall correctly, Strangers were…

“Be silent, Rotalz.

You were allowed to take it rather than stealing it, right”

“Guess so.

I wont forgive you for having a part of my head devoured and absorbed, but Ill overlook the pain of my butt with this.” Rotalz says while projecting an illusion right above him from the burning magic symbol on his forehead.

Its an illusion of a small wand and a tiny R letter.

Still, its funny how his butt swelled up.

Hes a whale, but…I sure didnt expect him to wake up to a liking in that direction.

“Hmm Rotalz, you like it in the butt…”

“Like hell! It was caused by the flames of the divine beast over there.

She basked the witch spear in a ridiculous amount of fire in the middle of its transformation, didnt she Those flames evaporated not only Schmihazars prided , but also most of his elements, such as his Flair.” Rotalz looks at Rollodeen with eyes full of fear.

Rollodeen only responds with a questioning look though.

I guess hes talking about the time when Rollodeen got back.

Well, even though it got deflected in the end, that fireball definitely looked like a mini-sun.

“Indeed.

It was convenient for us, but let me ask you, Shuuya-sama, is the mark in your left eye a Death AngelAGeladey type of magic circlePhugruh Lo as it was possessed by Schmihazar The power of a spirit with a consciousness and a definite shape”

“…Ive seen such spirits before, but very rarely.

Or rather, the great desert houses many entities like ancient spirits and blood bone nymphs, but Ive never seen a spirit just like her among them.

Even the hollow wolf beasts, which are worshiped by the Ahmeph people, are different.” Rotalz agrees with Kisara while making his forehead tremble.

“Yep, isnt she a being originating from an ancient city treasure or demonic tools as they appear in fairy-tales like the ones circulating among the Ahmeph people and North Mahaheim people in the great desert, and the Muryu tribe of the Eyhabla Plains next to the desert.

Im sure she must have been in direct contact with a supreme god as kin, fused with Shuuya-sama after getting absorbed by him, or had some other °special circumstances°…”

“Oh, you mean the Stranger himself is a legendary, sacred treasure The ancient hougu is said to have been loved by the last emperor of the Dawn Empire at the height of its glory.”

“…The legendary hougu or sacred treasure called Ruby Abyss Ufufu, how thrilling! So hes a crow piercing through the moonless dawn after all.

A being as hailed in the song about the attendant of witches following DamoAnun! For this very reason I believe its got to be Shuuya-sama, whos also the bearer of the Dawns sorcery skills.”

Kisara has noticed Helmes mark, huh Speaking of songs, I might accompany hers with my Justice lute.

As Im pondering about such things…Kisaras eyes gleam up.

The design of her black mask, which actually reminds me of a black queen, resembles the reliefs Ive seen in the underground world, just like before.

The look shes sending my way through that mask is one of reverence towards a sect leader.

Its filled with intense passions, but…it also contains an impressiveness that reminds me of a cold wind, not to mention a refreshing, azure sky.

Honestly, its scary, but Kisaras conjecture isnt that far off the mark.

And Helmes mark, which seems to exist in my left eye, is the same one that was imprinted on my butt in the past, isnt it…

Oh, is that the reason

I remember Sols place, where Viine, Mysty, and Hankay are currently staying, from back when I spent some time there with Yui.

When I entered the bath after finishing my training, Yui stared at my ass.

While Im carefreely reminiscing here…

“――The fur and tentacles of Divine Beast-sama felt wonderful, but―― right now something else is more important!” Freeing herself from Rollos fur, Higlia climbs atop Rollos forehead.

Rollo looks up to her, and tries to get her off by extending her tongue.

She seductively licks Higlias bodyas if grooming it.

But in the end, Higlia manages to somehow escape Rollos tongue, moves to the edge of the forehead, and hesitatingly looks at Kisara, Rotalz, and me.

And then she shouts, as if declaring war as a woman, with a tense and frantic expression, “――Shuuya! Arent you forgetting that you have something more important to deal with than BoobsKisara over there!”, while pointing at Kisara with a silver claw that had its shape changed.

“Fufu, what a cute beast girly.” Kisara isnt perturbed in the least.

“This again, huh”

“Quite so.

We have to hold a duel on the plaza with the statues of Hurley-sama and the twin moon gods! Its a promise for you to strive for glorylove together with me!”

She might be an ancient wolfwoman and a divine princess, but it doesnt change the fact that shes cute.

Shes a gentle woman whos been trying to protect everyone, despite acting tough on the surface.

And I also thought so when we fought together, but I feel like itd actually be fine for us to pair up.

Though I doubt itll become the pairing she desires…

I guess Ill humor her just this once.

“…You mean the duel where you exchange fist blows after having learned each others names Okay, Ill fight you once after Im done with all my other business.”

“Fufu―― Yahooo!”

Higlia grabs one of Rollos tentacles and adopts a triumphant pose in joy, and then jumps.

After pulling off a “Shoryuken” out of overflowing happiness, she almost falls off Rollos forehead, but Rollo saves her by twining a tentacle around her body, just to do the same trampoline play with Higlia she had earlier done with Helme.

『Aahh~ Being inside you is really the best, Your Excellency~』

Helmes telepathic message echoes in my mind.

After swimming around furiously, using all kinds of different forms, Helme stands up with the leafy skin waving, turns around, and asks with a tense expression, 『…Your Excellency』

The tone resonating with her voice has a touch of Iglueds enviousness.

Helme transforms from her small illusionary form into an adult illusionary form that seems to fill half of my visual field.

Her boobs are shaking quite conspicuously.

『…Is there still anything else you are keeping hidden from me besides the witty beastwoman and the increased presence of your water, Your Excellency』

Its not a question teeming with jealousy, but still, nothing less of Helme.

Shes sensed not only the matter with Iglued and the demonic duke, but also my growth.

After all, Ive acquired which requires the divine protection.

It looks like shes felt the faith of the water goddess, albeit faintly.

But, if thats not it, does she mean Saraten when shes talking about hiding something from her

『…You mean this palm, right』

『Yes! I sense a foreign object inside your left hand! What is that about』

『Ill tell you about the details later.

Although its safe for the moment, Im worried about Cydales situation――』

Bringing our telepathic conversation to a close within milliseconds, I shift my eyes to Kisara and Rollo.

“Kisara, Rollo, were going to head over to Cydale!”

“Dont forget about meee!”

“Higlia, you cant fly, can you Although youll be safe atop Rollo, someone has to protect everyone, including Gramps Ton and Magrick who are taking care of Iglueds seed and the Aodm-something wood cluster.

Just Moga and Nemus are too unreliable as guards.

So, I entrust everyones safety to you, Higlia.”

“…Oki, count on me.”

Higlia is still entangled by Rollos tentacle, but…she nods with an adorable smile after seeing me relying on her.

After answering her with a smile, I wave my hand as a signal, and then kick off the beneath my feet with my whole body clad in Magic Combat Style, dashing through the sky.

Im curious about that semi-transparent orc, but first comes Quiche.

At the same time, I hear Kisara reciting with a magical voice, “Thou hast glared, hyureya――”, behind me.

It seems shes keeping up with me.

Without paying any further attention, I continue running through the sky as if tearing the air apart with Baldoks red spear which Im holding with my right hand.

Passing the horse-shaped rock, I take a turn, following the water stream in the valley beneath my feet.

In the blink of an eye I pass through the area where grasses are dominating the base of the mountains.

Below I can see a path meandering towards a Bewitching Palace-like hill.

Ive come back to Cydale!

『We are back! The semi-transparent orc is on the other side of that hill』 Helme points with a finger at a semi-transparent monster.

『So thats the one, huh』

Moreover, its tossing an orc corpse into the air, just to catch it with its wide open mouth as it falls down.

After closing the mouth, it munches on the corpse, devouring it while looking as though its truly enjoying the taste.

Its chewing with such a verve that you can hear the noise all the way over here.

Furthermore, each time it eats a new orc corpse, richly colored lights glow around its abdomen.

Those glows travel through its body like electrical signals.

Its also keeping a sizable amount of mana in its body.

Im really interested in that orc, but…Ill fight it later.

I pull my eyes off that new orc species, and look at Cydale.

Just as Helme said, the village is safe.

I guess the narrow, wooden gate is on the verge of toppling over And there are traces of a small house having burned.

The damage of the attack is still fresh.

Seeing how my servants had been present, the attack must have had quite the quality to have left such damages behind.

Intelligent orcs, eh…

Theres a gravesite at the foot of the hill I saw earlier.

The watering hole, where the water is drawn from a spring, is the same as before.

I look at a place where graves are lined up…

Right, thats how it is, right Quiche…

『No, I wont return to everyone.

I want to drop in for a visit to Hino.

Besides, the Evil Dragon King was killed.

Im going to head back to the place where my hometown had been, dig up graves, and tell my family…and everyone else about his death』

Quiche had told me, clearly passing on her feelings of wishing to rebuild the village to me.

Back then her face was twisted in pain and anguish.

Tears had streamed down her cheeks…

And then we deeply kissed each other with me trying to tell her to cheer up and stop crying.

It was a kiss between friends, but it held deep affection…

While being moved to tears, I check the vicinity while circling around the village.

『――Your Excellency, do you wish to examine the situation with Spirit Sight Or by using Spirit Ball Conception』

『No, its fine for now――』

Immediately after my telepathic conversation with Helme, I spot Catiza whose silver hair is standing upright.

She stretches her arm towards me atop the gate, and waves it furiously.

Then again, its funny due to her weird waist movements.

Moreover, she keeps switching her face with those of Purin and Tsuan.

Maybe the three are fighting for dominance within her.

Its weird because it happens with her waist bent like that.

『Fufu――』 Helme laughs and dances in a corner of my visual field.

It appears shes given Catiza lessons.

『Your Excellency, this is a pose I came up with just recently!』

Shes demonstrating her new pose to me…but, I ignore both with their posing.

Ive also found the Burning Knights.

Theyre riding my precious pets.

Sure looks awesome.

Just like shoguns or military commanders.

The children are in the center of the village with the monument.

It looks like Catiza and the Burning Knights have properly protected the village and its inhabitants.

Or rather, did they get influenced by Catizas posing

The children have started to imitate her dance of twisting her waist.

Catiza is about to summon her bone fish, but stops midway.

Suddenly Alray and Hueremy roar.

They shake off Adomos and Zemetas, climb the roof of a building, and frantically keep jumping up as if to fly.

However, they cannot fly despite being magically created tigers.

――Sorry, you two.

You want to hug me, right

Or maybe theyve perceived Rollos presence, whos like a mother to them.

Rollo is still behind me since shes flying slowly.

But, I suppose its typical of me to ponder about Alray and Hueremy rather than the Burning Knights who were blown away.

At that point, the children gather around Adomos and Zemetas, whove crashed into a wooden wall, and touch them.

Alray and Hueremy join in as well.

Then the children leave the Burning Knights, and gather around Catiza, probably lured in by her strange dance.

Catiza raises a hand, cheering them on to participate, starting a ridiculous dance.

The children copy her.

This is going to make Quiche worried.

Still, it seems the children have received more influence from Catiza and the Burning Knights than the butt lover Helme.

Well, the Burning Knights are talking steam locomotives.

And when it comes to Catiza, I can fully agree considering her usual behavior.

She can change into Purin and Tsuan, even just her face, and she can also turn into a golden caterpillar.

Quite the eccentric, funny person for the children…

Okay, now I know that the village is safe.

While feeling relieved…I look ahead where hills line up beneath a cliff.

Orc corpses are strewn all over the place as if to cover the hills with a crimson layer.

A part of the woodland has been mowed down, exposing Holker stone lookalikes.

Though it doesnt look like it has developed into a large-scale battle…

Oh, I found Quiche!

With her light green hair fluttering in the wind, shes quickly descending the cliff.

A magnificent heavy knight armor encases her delicate body.

Shes still carrying her beloved sword in one hand, and a shield in the other.

…Her appearance hasnt changed, but I feel like shes become faster than before.

Her target is that semi-transparent orc, huh She hasnt noticed me yet.

…Shes doing her utmost to protect her village.

『Your Excellency…your mana…』

『…Yeah』

Seeing Quiche, my emotions seem to surge to such an extent that it surprises Helme.

It appears that my mana has naturally leaked outside, too.

“Shuuya-sama――”

“Kisara, the elf with the light green hair is my friend.

Dont mistake her for the enemy.

Also, Ill go ahead and kill that monster over there.

Kisara, you make Quiche stop in a gentle manner so that she wont come close to me as I fight.”

“As you command――”

“Kisara~, youve got a tough road ahead, dont you”

“Shut it! You run your mouth too much――”

Kisara, who gives me a formal response with a clenched fist, immediately reacts after being teased by Rotalz.

While whirling around the witch spear, which is shrouded in filaments, she lifts one leg like a rhythmic sports athlete.

“――.” She delivers a splendid heel kick – bewitching me with her gorgeous panties at the same time – against Rotalz.

“――Ahyaaa!”

Rotalz becomes a pitiful mess.

His forehead, which had recovered at long last, caves in with a sound similar to a bubble bursting.

He crashes into the valley while rotating like a battleship that has been shot down.

A blow of her combat boots packs quite a severe punch.

…Or rather, I tasted it as well, so I can feel you, Rotalz.

—————- End of Part 1 —————-

But leaving that aside, I cannot afford to let Quiche fight that monster.

Focusing on my shoulder dragon, I changed HalKonk from its tank top version into its Evil Dragon King armor version.

I pass Quiche while dashing through the sky, closing in on the semi-transparent orc.

『――Helme, lend me your strength』

『Yes, just as usual.』

I dont give any particular response to Helmes telepathic comment, but Im sure a smile is blooming on my face right now.

While strongly thinking of a certain image, I activate .

The glittering liquefied Helme slides out of my left eye with a wet sound.

The fluid, which is hard to describe as liquid or sap, spreads out from my left eye, dyeing a part of my left shoulder turquoise blue as a new defense layer.

※Piiing※ acquired

Oh, I got a skill when I created a strong mental image.

The left field of vision for thats based on is as mysterious as ever.

If you look at it from the side, it might seem as though a huge, planet-like catfish is floating above me on the left.

Maybe it even looks like a Spirit Beast.

Immediately following, the orc reacts to me approaching it from the sky, and roars loudly, “Dont get any clooooser! Nuguuoooh!”, with its muzzle cracking open to the sides.

It then throws an orc corpse my way.

Whoa, how amazing! Theres still quite a bit of distance left between us.

I quickly rotate my body vertically, swinging Baldok by drawing my right hand back.

The orc body, which closes in on me trying to completely fill my visual field, is bisected by the red ax blade.

I continue rotating forward while getting basked in blood.

Just like that, I land on the ground, firmly planting my feet down.

The corpse had been awfully heavy.

It might have been a special technique that transforms corpses into meatballs.

It was spot on to not allow Quiche to fight this thing.

Right when that thought crosses my mind, the orcs attack is incoming after its closed the distance between us.

The attack consists of semi-transparent tentacles which have extended from the orcs crooked fist.

Were still separated from each other quite a bit, but…that guy got a considerably high reaction speed.

And the approaching tentacles are abnormally fast, too.

Before deploying my , I manipulate that covers the area from my left eye to my left shoulder, making a warped, catfish-shaped defense layer expand in front of me.

As soon as the tentacles get in contact with the , they get instantly absorbed in as if disappearing.

“What are youuuuuu!! A trooolll vanguaaaaard” The orc screams loudly.

“Do I look like a troll to you” I ask through as it blocks the orcs ranged attack while drawing closer to it.

“…Humph! So youre a collaborator of the Tree King of Wonders whos slipped in among the humans”

“Who the hell is that I know the Death Butterfly people though.” I answer while getting even closer.

“Whaaaaat, stay awaaay! A person from the underground world, eh! Nuuuuaaaa――”

The number of tentacles shooting out of the orcs fist increases.

However, small, Helme-like hands extend from the catfish shape, grabbing the tentacles instead and pulling them into the turquoise blue interior of the catfish.

The tentacles closing in on me vanish in an instant.

It seems like the tentacles just have a semi-transparent color, but otherwise dont differ from flesh or material-based tentacles.

“You ate them!”

“Smart boy――”

I kick off the ground, and shoot ahead from my left factor mark.

As the chains tip stabs into the ground, I reel it in like an anchor, forcing my body to move.

Using that movement force, I keep shortening the distance to the surprised orc.

The orc swiftly brandishes its extended left arm downwards while making its bodys interior gleam.

It tries to squash me from above, but I quickly erase and dodge to the left.

An intense noise as it happens when the ground caves in reverberates across the vicinity.

At the same time rock fragments hit my neck and face, causing a certain amount of pain.

――However, I ignore that pain.

After the evasive movements, I kick off the ground once more, shifting towards counter-attacking from a right angle.

I spread out water from life magic while simultaneously manipulating through .

Then I crouch down while creating multiple water layers beneath my feet.

Yep, its the technique of spear user Soleck.

With my body half-risen, I unleash a low thrust, invoking as I stab out Baldok with my right hand.

The spiraling red spear drills through the orcs leg.

“Nuguuoooh――”

Once the orc releases its mana with its upper body trembling, its body splits apart.

The suddenly appeared smaller, semi-transparent orc versions are slender in contrast to their main body.

Each of them holds a silver magic sword.

The situation has abruptly developed into a 3 vs.

1, but I cope with it calmly.

――Blood Mana .

I activate my blood acceleration.

Making Baldok disappear, I summon Ganghis into my left hand.

Tilting Ganghis diagonally below, I parry the low stab aimed at me by the orc on my left.

Next I switch to a two-handed hold, and lift Ganghis above my head, blocking an upper slash coming from my right.

Then I move Ganghis vertically, parrying a mid-tier slash targeting my side, and at the same time I stoop down to dodge a sweeping slash by the main body.

At that point, I ward off another approaching sweep by tilting Ganghiss blade diagonally once more.

Making Ganghis rotate as if drawing an arc, I rotate myself as well.

The blood and water sticking to my feet is being scattered around me, representing my movements.

Ganghiss circular movements belongs to the Wind Spear Styles 『Branch Twine』.

I wield Ganghis to draw a circle in the air dragging the silver sword Ive turned aside along.

Its a counterattack by entangling the sword with my spear, but the enemy is strong and fast.

Two orcs have synchronized their movements, both stepping in towards me with their swords at the ready and simultaneously swinging their swords.

I put priority on defending myself.

I move Ganghis, which Ive been rotating up until then, vertically, allowing me to receive the synchronized sweeps of both orcs with the middle part of Ganghis.

Sublime, fickle sparks scatter as Ganghis clashes with the two silver blades.

Moreover, a shrill metallic screech hits my ear drums.

――Dont think Ill just keep defending, okay

I step forwards as if sidling up while intentionally smiling.

At the same moment, I stab Ganghis into the ground.

While focusing on the hand holding the spear, I deliver a front kick, driving Arzens Boot into the chest of the orc on my right, sending it flying.

At that instant, the main bodys sword lunges at me.

Its a thrusting technique thats attempting to pierce through my chest.

It has apparently judged that Id be defenseless when my kick comes to an end.

While evading the incoming sword point by shifting my body sideways, I wind up the sword approaching from my left with the Ive deployed at my feet, causing the left orc clone to become defenseless instead.

I make use of Ganghis as its vertically stabbed into the ground, and twist my waist as if performing a pole dance on Ganghis, dispatching a right turn kick.

The kick, with mana charged into Arzens Boots, impacts on the orcs head.

A dull gong and sprays of blood scatter into the surroundings, but without paying any attention to that, I use the momentum of my kick.

While registering how the orc clone with the pulverized head vanishes, I rotate my body.

Suddenly, the main body extends its arm, aiming the point of its sword at my foot.

Is it trying to crush the foot that produces all my swift rotational movements

――I use the approaching silver sword against the orc.

Measuring the timing by watching the sword point, I jump as if making my body float a bit, and adjust my balance by pouring mana into my left foot.

Just like that, I trample down on the swords middle part with the image of crushing the orc to death with the sole of Arzens Boot.

I place my body weight on the sword, pushing down the sword even further with the intent to completely bury it in the ground.

In the next instant, I summon Baldok into my right hand, and whirl around while pinning down the main bodys sword with the sole of my left foot.

Yep, its a shift from a spear stance to a spear stabbing technique.

At the same time I erase Ganghis, and resummon it into my left hand again, before thrusting out Baldok in my right hand.

I activate on the spiraling red spear.

The spear covered by water looks unusual.

Given that its being clad with water while that very water keeps evaporating, the attack looks like a steam stab.

Even as I consider that the spear and skill might not be very compatible with each other, the red spears penetrates the main bodys abdomen.

I feel feedback, but its kinda shallow

“Gunununununu――”

The main body falls prostrate, groaning while holding onto Baldok.

At that moment, the clone orc Ive blown away with my front kick aims its sword at my torso, but its too slow.

While letting go of Baldok, I dodge the sword thrust with .

Continuing from there, I direct one hand towards the ground with a cartwheel motion while my body stands sideways.

Thrusting that hand into the ground like a water surface, I lower my waist while closing the distance.

Even as Im showing my back to my opponent, I drive an upper vertical kick into the clones bosom.

A dull thud reaches my ears from its abdomen accompanied by a solid feedback from my foot.

Having suffered a counter, the clone is hurled high into the air.

With its body folded, the orcs body is slowly disappearing, but I wont let it get off so easily.

I unleash at the clones belly.

Its a nimble spear technique that continues to alter my posture from propping my body up with a hand to drawing a half moon in the air alongside Ganghis.

I thrust myself towards the orcs belly as if having become one with Ganghis spearhead which seems to pierce the heavens.

“Gyaa――”

The scream by the clone orc concludes with it ending up on Ganghis.

In that instant, foggy blood is released from the clone orcs muzzle, and it disappears.

“Hiii.”

This scream comes from the main body thats still alive.

The main body orc has maintained its semi-transparency even after getting hit by Baldoks red spear and ax blade at the abdomen.

Quite the tough guy.

I try to pull Baldok out of the orcs abdomen, but it doesnt allow me to do so.

“Dont touch it with your dirty hand――” I shoot ice pebbles at it from HalKonks shoulder dragon.

Next I fire from point-blank.

The chains spearhead penetrates the main bodys body.

The ice pebbles stab the area around the orcs eyes.

“Guuuaaa.”

Moreover, I shoot a series of 《Ice Bullets》, controlling them so that they dont damage Baldok.

The orcs flesh is scattered as its showered by a spray of machine gun bullets, continuously becoming smaller while unable to even scream.

I erase as it meaninglessly cancels my spells.

In the middle of that, the orcs body changes its color, becoming dark.

Without caring about that, I advance with my Blood Acceleration while absorbing the scattering mana, flesh, and blood with .

Grabbing Baldok with my right hand, I pull it out of the now small lump of meat that used to be an orc.

As soon as I extract the spear, the hole in the orcs abdomen becomes visible.

Blood quickly surges out of that hole.

At that moment, Baldoks red spear and ax blade glow.

Baldok releases threads similar to the witch spears filaments, and sucks up the orcs blood.

A huge heart with a magic square talisman stuck to it is visible through the hole that has become spot-clean after the blood was absorbed.

Its heart is located in its abdomen

Also, Baldok seems to be slowly changing.

At that instant, the heart squirms.

For the time being, I erase Baldok.

“Is it possibly stuffed with several magic hearts Oh well, not like I care――” I rotate sideways while muttering this indifferently.

If Mysty was here, she might have stopped me, telling me that she wants to research it, but Ive no reason to stop.

Yep, of course Im holding Ganghis in my left hand.

――I activate .

It doesnt suit Ganghis to be clad in darkness.

Still, its spearhead buries itself entirely in the hole that had been opened up by Baldok.

Accordingly, the huge darkness lance, Destruction Spear Gladopalus, penetrates through the orc while swallowing its body.

In an instant, the orcs right body half turns into small pieces, and vanishes.

I cancel my blood mana while also erasing Ganghis.

I dont look at the main body dispersing like wind.

Rather, I turn in the direction of the womens voices that seem to be quarreling behind me.

I wont go as far as calling it a fight, but Quiche and Kisara are exchanging complaints.

Arent there any other orc soldiers around

Asking myself, I warily scan the vicinity with Grasping Perception and Magic Observation while approaching the two.

But it looks like there are no other enemies around.

“Ah, Shuuya…”

The moment Quiche notices me approaching, she lets go of her beloved longsword.

Dropping her shield next as well, she covers her trembling lips with both hands.

Green jade earrings adorn her earlobes.

Were those Emerald Meditation Gems

In addition, her white, porcelain-like skin, and a bird on her right chest armor thats bulging out as characteristic for female breastplates.

Just as before, small, crane-like emblems are drawn on it.

I dont know about her butt since I cant see it, but it should be alright.

Im sure its still properly split in two.

“――Shuuya-sama.” Kisara props herself up with one knee on the ground.

I nod at her, and then look at Quiche, “Im back, Quiche――”

While focusing on smiling, I lift my hand to exchange a high-five with her, but Quiche leaps into my chest instead.

“…I saved the children.

It appears Azolas amulet did its job.”

“I see, Im glad to hear that.
