Chapter 120.1: Regrouping
◆The Destroyer, Medjed (Kuroki)
Totona and I, riding on the flying chimera, saw Reiji and co from behind.
「The fight has begun, Medjed.」
「Seems so, Totona.」
I nodded at Totona.
As we were catching up to them, I had started to mull over whether we should regroup with Reiji and his group or not, when suddenly an explosion erupted from the sand and the fight began.
Reiji fought the spear-wielding man who appeared out of nowhere. That man’s skill with the spear was superb.
「Totona, do you know the identity of that spear-wielding man?」
「He’s the Serpent Prince, Dahark. I thought Alphos has killed him, but it seems he managed to survive…」
Totona couldn’t hide her shock.
The Serpent Queen was the enemy of Elios. The moment I heard Totona’s answer, I couldn’t help but wonder why her son would be in such a place, outside of her territory.
On the other side of Reiji’s fight, women with the lower bodies of snakes appeared. They were gorgons and lamias, the Serpent Queen’s kin. They had probably come along with the Serpent Prince.
Now, the only problem was if we should assist them or not. I mean, Reiji and co didn’t seem to have a problem with this situation. I also noticed that Reiji had become more powerful than before. The spear wielding prince might be powerful, but the current Reiji was stronger than him.
But, what about Reiji’s comrade?
「Ah?」
I unintentionally leaked out such a voice.
Suddenly, a giant popped out from the sand below and caught one of Reiji’s comrades. The one who had caught her was the representative of giants, Gigates (Earthen Giant).
She was a familiar figure. If I’m not mistaken, her name was Chiyuki.
The Gigates’ physical strength rivaled that of the divine race. That woman was in deep shit right now.
「TOTONA, I’M GOING FIRST TO SAVE THAT WOMAN!!」
I jumped off the chimera and flew at full speed toward the giant using my flying magic. Once I arrived near the giant, I landed a drop kick to his face, forcing him to release Chiyuki from his hand. My kick had sent the giant flying, so Chiyuki, who was abruptly released, let out a screech as she fell.
I rushed and caught her in a princess carry mid-air then landed on the ground before letting her down.
Chiyuki looked up at me with a dumbfounded look on her face. It seems she had no idea what had just happened. Come to think of it, this would be the third time I saved her life. There was a saying that something that happened twice would happen thrice.
「WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOUUUUUUUUU???!!!」
A while later, an angry shout resounded in the area. The angry shout came from the Gigates, who had managed to stand again after I sent him flying with a drop kick. A few seconds later, wind started blowing from his body.
The Gigates race was also skilled in magic. By the looks of it, the Gigates in front of them was going to use magic to raise his speed.
The cloth which covered my body was swayed by the wind.
I Had no choice but to fight I guess.
「KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! SNAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!」
Chiyuki raised a scream.
I was startled and looked down at Chiyuki immediately.
She was trembling, and her face was flushed red.
What happened to her?
「HOW DARE YOU KICK THE GREAT ME!!」
But, it seems I couldn’t afford to worry about Chiyuki’s state.
The Gigates rushed toward me.
「Heed My Call And Show Yourself, O Ashen Spirit! Form A Wall That Protects Me From Mine Enemy!! True Shadow Wall (Wall of True Shadow Spirit)!!」
Suddenly, Totona’s voice resounded from overhead.
「GEH?!!」
The Gigates who rushed toward me crashed against the shadow wall conjured by Totona and fell down. The magic that Totona used just now created a completely colorless and transparent wall. Someone without a high sense of perception wouldn’t be able to notice the existence of that wall. Moreover, despite being transparent, the wall was really solid.
The Gigates who rushed ahead failed to detect the wall and ended up crashing against it right on the face, and collapsed as a result.
I had seen Loughas use this magic before, it seems Totona could do the same.
「Are you alright?」
Riding on the chimera, Totona landed with a book in her hand. The book in her hand was probably a grimoire.
「Yeah… Thank you for saving me, Goddess Totona…」
Chiyuki snapped back to reality and replied to Totona. f(r)eeweb(n)ovel
A rosy color appeared on her cheeks. It seems she has a snake phobia since she ended up screaming so loudly. In fact, she seemed to be bashful and looked away from me. I wanted to comfort her since I knew that everyone had something they were bad with, but I had no choice but to stay quiet for now since my identity might be blown off at once if I spoke to her.
「P-Please do something about those Gigateses!!」
Chiyuki spoke with a shrill voice. There were five Gigateses left. No catfolk were caught yet since they were so agile, but it was only a matter of time unless I did something.
「Medjed, please take care of the rest!!」
I nodded at Totona. I then kicked the ground and leapt toward the general direction of the Gigateses. Upon noticing me, the Gigateses brandished their clubs, I ducked, jumped again, and headbutted a Gigates who had yet to regain his stance right on his abdomen.
「GEH?!!」
The Gigates’ body floated in the air, I jumped again, and sent them flying with a kick toward another Gigates who chased after a catfolk. Those Gigateses collided with each other.
Two down, three to go.
The remaining three Gigateses looked at me with expressions as if they couldn’t believe what they just saw. Meanwhile, the catfolk got away from the Gigateses and went toward Totona.
This should be enough.
The Gigateses lost their fighting spirit and retreated while carrying their unconscious comrades. As for the lamias and gorgons, they seemed to be running away from a monkey.
The raid met a failure due to our interference. This should be the right moment to retreat…
「Reiji-kun!!!」
Chiyuki headed toward Reiji’s direction.
Reiji was still in the middle of a battle against Dahark. He seemed to have the upper hand. But, another person had yet to show themselves. 𝓯𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒘𝒆𝒃𝓷𝓸𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝙤𝙢
She didn’t seem to notice that yet.
I blocked Chiyuki’s path with my arm, preventing her from going toward him. She seemed to be surprised, and then averted her gaze from mine. It seems she was still embarrassed about her loud cry from a while ago.
「Hey, why aren’t you letting me to go there?!!」
Chiyuki raised an objection, still averting her face from mine. But I really shouldn’t let her go there.
「O Ice Spear!!」
Suddenly, ice spears appeared out of nowhere, and rushed toward us. I knocked down those ice spears with my eye beams. Then I looked up to see the identity of the one who threw the ice spear at us.
A woman donned in deep crimson attire stood right there. Her skin was abnormally white, and she had bright red hair which matched her attire. She was a Beauty.
But that beauty was fake.
I couldn’t see her real appearance, but I just somehow realized that her appearance was a mere disguise.
「WHAT?! THERE’S ANOTHER ONE HIDING?!」
Chiyuki was really surprised to see the appearance of another hidden enemy. That was natural I guess. I mean, I also failed to detect her presence just a while ago. She might have the ability to hinder our perception.
「Fufufu, too bad, I can’t let you to disturb Daha-kun.」
The woman with deep crimson attire laughed as she spoke. The pointed, blade-like fangs peeked out from the tips of her lips. She was a woman who invited an uneasy feeling.
「The reaper’s daughter, Zaffrada. You’ve come to this place too.」
Riding on the chimera’s back, Totona stepped forward ahead of me.
