27. Magical aptitude SS and fireball evolve.

“Stalking … was that your hobby, Azel?”

I was concentrating on escaping while dodging the rubble and bad footing. Besides, this strange atmosphere and the killing intent of Azel are unusual.

“Nigrisssssss !!”

The damage from a single blow must be considerable, judging from the fact that it took down an adherent dragon. No matter how good my defense is, it might be dangerous if I take a hit.

Moreover, it is not possible to fight with two people in my arms.

Well, attacks don’t work in the first place.

If we continue to run around like this, we’ll only increase the damage unnecessarily.

Arisa mutters with a calm voice.

“… That magic circle is troublesome.”

“Do you know it?”

Arisa seemed to be troubled as she observed Azel, then she laughed lightly to show that she finally had an answer.

“I’m better at magical knowledge.”

“Don’t brag, teach me.”

“That’s a magic circle. It’s no exaggeration to say it’s an ancient relic … I’m not familiar with its characteristics, but it looks like two things: physical attack nullification and attack magic nullification.”

…… She’s casually saying it, but isn’t it messed up?

An ordinary person would be in despair. But I don’t have time to do that.

I’ve never heard of a magic circle.

“…… How come Azel can use such a thing?”

“I don’t know that much. Can you keep running?”

“As you can see, I’m doing my best to escape”

“That’s good. I’m going to give it my best shot.”

“Didn’t you just say it could neutralize magic?

She grinned and raised her wand towards the sky.

Perhaps she’s full of confidence, her eyes aren’t cloudy.

“The magic circle is, after all, a thing, so its durability is limited. There’s nothing that can withstand my maximum power.”

… Sure, it looks like it’s worth a try.

“I want to protect everyone”

Red light mixes and creates a sphere at the tip of her cane.

But it was different from the usual fireball.

Blue light was also entwined so as to intersect red.

…… Could it be that she evolved from magic aptitude S to SS here!?

The stronger the feelings for people, the more powerful magic is.

Arisa’s feelings exceeded the limit and advanced to magic aptitude SS.

“Stop rampaging at my house!”

The new fireball emitted a beautiful glow, and with a moment of brilliance, caused a huge explosion.

The rubble was obliterated and turned to ash.

The whole area became a wilderness, and not a single living thing remained.

For now, I’m glad that there was no one left other than this girl.

If the evacuation of the residents hadn’t been completed, we would have been in big trouble …

Even so, it seems he didn’t have the intelligence to avoid it.

“… That’s some amazing power.”

“Mmm … I feel like I’ve used up most of my magic power. I can’t move anymore.”

I was relieved to see Arisa, who was weakened.

If he took this much magic, it should certainly be impossible to neutralize.

Or at least I thought so.

“… Ni…Gr … Nigris … Kill … you!”

When the dust had settled, a black dragon stood firmly there.

It didn’t take any damage and we were stunned.

…… Is this a joke?

*

A room in a certain mansion. The great noble could not enter the slums.

Therefore, he predicted what would happen there and laughed.

“The skilled are always a nuisance, after all. They just keep getting in my way.”

He Laughs gracefully while making tea.

The city, which you can see from the terrace, seemed very quiet.

He adds sugar to the tea and stirs. He had a cool face while laughing happily.

“I guess I should have told you since you seem to have misunderstood me. No, that’s not fair. You have two skilled people? It’s still unfair.”

The basis of the magic circle is “for myself.” In a sense, it exists for authoritarians and distorted humans.

That is clear from history.

Those who once unified this world used such magic circles.

People call that person a Demon King.

“Azel is the strongest piece. No matter how much you think of people and use magic, it’s useless.”

Their defeat has been decided.

Appraisal skill and the primordial fireball user. {TN: Previously primitive}

There’s no doubt that both of them are troublesome. However, the one that’s particularly troublesome is the primordial fireball user.

That is magic equal to the origin.

She didn’t seem to understand it herself, but that’s okay.

“If only those two people are suppressed, I’ll win.”

The person with appraisal skills is just a healer.

He can’t do anything.

“I’m looking forward to it.”
