“Hyahahahaha!”
“Hang on!”
Basleigh and Akzeryus engaged again. They both stopped to fire at each other, grazing attacks from each other.
As Basleigh’s movements slowed, scratches began to appear on her body, and the wounded Akzeryus laughed as his armor cracked, his face bruised, and blood spurting from his mouth.
In the midst of this, Ryuuze grinds his teeth while holding his greatsword at the ready.
“There’s no room to intervene ……! Damn it, even with all those training, and this is how it ended!”
“Y-You can’t help it, with that …… A-Anyway, we have to see how Hawk-san is …… H-Huh? I wonder where he went.”
When Kudelica moved her eyes to look for Hawk, who had somehow disappeared from the vicinity of Basleigh, she heard a voice right beside her.
“It’s okay, he’s unconscious, but my medicine has completely healed his wounds.”
There was Reiss, standing there with her hands in the pockets of her lab coat. As she said, Hawk’s wounds at his feet had closed up and he didn’t look too bad.
“Reiss!? Y-You’re back in town?”
“Oh, Lars didn’t tell you? I’ve been working with Retzel, you know? Well, maybe he didn’t have time to tell you because of the mess. And there’s Irumi.”
“T-That nurse ……!? What’s the meaning of this!”
Ryuuze grabbed Reiss’ by the shoulders and she gave him a wry smile.
“I’m just telling you the truth, that’s all. I’ve been with Retzel since I was at the academy, and I’ve also stayed in Berias, the place where the Gospel’s Descent is, you know? …… I also know about the kidnapping of Luciel and Luciela.”
“What ……?”
“I’m the one who made the potion that transformed the adventurers into ogres. They were pretty bad guys, so I asked them to be my test subjects, but they were also defeated by Lars and Ryuuze and the others, right? I thought it was brilliant.”
“You …… Don’t fuck with me! Do you what happened to them and Makina back then!”
“T-That’s right! I think Luciel-chan and the others were really scared!”
The light-hearted Reiss easily took her foot off the ground when Ryuuze snapped at him and grabbed him by the collar.
“Ku …… Kuku, Well, I guess you guys would say that. But there are some opponents that can’t be defeated by the “right way” alone, like that thing …… Yotto.”
“Ah!?”
“Ryuuze, Kudelica, use this to prepare for battle.”
When Reiss escaped from Ryuuze’s hands, she took two bottles out of her pocket and tossed them to each of them, who took them with surprise.
“The Ogre potion ……!? There’s no way I’ll drink this stuff!”
“Close, but no. After much experimentation, I have created a potion that extracts the abilities of monsters and assists the body. There are almost no side effects, so don’t worry.”
“Come to think of it, your skill [Experiment], right? But, there’s no point in drinking now, you know? There’s no one to fight ……”
“No, Basleigh-sensei is nearing her limit, look.”
When Reiss turned her eyes to Basleigh, she saw her breathing roughly and wielding a golden hammer.
“Ahhh!? B-Basleigh-sensei!?”
“That’s what I’m talking about. I’m not as strong as you guys. I’m sorry, but please do it to help her.”
“…… What the hell are you?”
“We’ll see, won’t we?”
Reiss looked straight into Ryuuze’s eyes and said that, Ryuuze thought about it for a moment, but then decided that now was the time to stop Akzeryus, with Basleigh engaging him, so he took the potion.
“I’m going to kick your ass if something happens!”
“Me too ……!”
“Yeah, and please try to not kill Akzeryus. I never thought that the ten chief priests had such a secret.”
Kudelica also drank the potion and grabbed her weapon and ran off.
“N-Not to kill him …… you say? Are you saying to hold back with this power ……!?.”
“Auuuhh …… M-My body feels hot ……”
Shortly after, Ryuuze and Kudelica closes in on Basleigh and the others!
◆ ◇ ◆
“Y-You’re really good at this …… Y-You’re not just bluffing about being his sister, huh …… and your powers …… are they the same as the Lord Founder’s? You’ll never be able to come back, will you? How about becoming one of us? Then you can be with your brother forever.”
“Well, who knows …… And I refuse! My brother is already dead. The only thing I see is the demon that killed my parents!”
“I knew you’d say that! Then go ahead and die! Hyaha, hyahahahaha!”
“Guh …… It’s harder on my body than I thought …… but I finally have a chance to kill this guy ……! I’m almost there!”
“Ugh!? Y-You still have that kind of power ……! Die, die, die!”
Akzeryus made a last-ditch attack rush, and Basleigh began to be overwhelmed, looking for an opening to counterattack, when her hand slipped.
“Oh, shit ……!”
“I’ve got your head! Hyahahahahahaha!”
“Endure, my body ……!”
Basleigh clenched her teeth.
–However, Akzeryus’ sword never reached her ……
“I guess that was a close call ……! I-I’m sorry, but I can’t go easy on you. Avoid it, Akzeryus!”
After catching the greatsword with his greatsword, Ryuuze says “Avoid” to Akzeryus with trembling lips.
“Huh!? Who do you think you’re talking–“
“Oraaaahhhhhhh!”
“Impossible!?”
The moment Ryuuze cut him off, he easily flew up like a stuffed animal. As he tried to regain his position in the air, he saw a figure fly to the same height as him.
“I’m really enhanced, Reiss-chan, you’re amazing …… Setting that aside, I still can’t forgive you for that. But you’re Basleigh-sensei’s big brother, and Reiss-chan said not to kill you, so I’ll only make sure you’re seriously injured!”
“What do you plan to do, little girl! Hyahah–“
Akzeryus tried to laugh, but it was inaudible.
Because Kudelica hit him in the chest armor with her axe. As Akzeryus struggled to catch his breath, Kudelica grabbed his right hand and bent the joint backwards.
“Gaaaahhhh!?”
“This one too!”
And his left arm.
She took down the greatsword and tried to move his sluggish arm, but Kudelica knocked him down with the edge of her axe.
“Ryuuze-kun, finish it!”
“Yeah! [Flame Sword]!”
“Gyaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!? I-I can’t believe I ended up like this to someone like them ……!? Uooh–“
He swung his magic sword at the falling Akzeryus as she passed him, and his whole body burst into flames, he bounced heavily, and Akzeryus stopped moving.
“Okay, well done! Restrain Akzeryus, and we’ll heal him immediately!”
“No, he doesn’t need treatment! He’s going to–“
“They’re victims too, so to speak. We need to ask them how they became like this, right? If they’ve been brainwashed, we can undo it or–“
“Haah …… Haah …… I’m really tired …… B-Basleigh-sensei, let’s just let Reiss handle this …… If she’s in on it, I’ll handle it ……”
“Ryuuze-kun …… I understand. For now, let us rejoice in the fact that we have defeated Akzeryus.”
As soon as she said this, the pattern disappeared from Basleigh’s face, and she fell to her knees and fell forward.
“Oh, Basleigh-sensei!?”
“…… I’m fine, I’m just drained of stamina and magic.”
“S-Speaking of which, why didn’t you use your skill …… If it was a [Fatal wound], wouldn’t it have been a little easier to do ……? “
“……”
“Reiss, you’re done?”
As Reiss listened to her words without saying a word, Irumi approached her and called out to her.
“Yeah. What about you?”
“I’m sorry, but it looks like five people died and three are in serious condition. The ones who were still breathing managed to survive, though.”
“I see.”
When Reiss replied with a blank expression, Ryuuze was asking Irumi.
“…… You’re not with Retzel?”
“The doctor is doing things separately …… I didn’t think I’d be fighting alongside the small kids from that time.”
“That’s my line. If Mizuki-san sees you, she’ll probably attack you.”
“Hmph, I’m going to turn the tables on her.”
Ryuuze squinted into the scene, alternating between Irumi and Reiss, then looking at the dead knights with a bitter face.
And then they meet up with Tigre and the others–
“Hang on!”
Basleigh and Akzeryus engaged again. They both stopped to fire at each other, grazing attacks from each other.
As Basleigh’s movements slowed, scratches began to appear on her body, and the wounded Akzeryus laughed as his armor cracked, his face bruised, and blood spurting from his mouth.
