Chapter 188: Spirit Users + Sophia’s Point of View

“I knew it! Spirit magic doesn’t work!”

“This is bad!”

When we arrived at the cicada’s position, Elira was the first to say so. Even though I had expected this, it is still troublesome that the spirit magic is ineffective.

“Zero kun.”

“What!”

I ended up answering Yug’s question with a forceful answer. Four people were now attacking the cicada with their magic. I’m in charge of disarming it the moment it’s about to become invisible. I don’t want to get hit by a shockwave, so it’s a hit-and-run tactic.

“Why don’t you use us, Zero-kun? 』\

“Why? Because spirit magic doesn’t work.”

If spirit magic doesn’t work, there is no point in using Yug or Zeal.

“Zero, you don’t have any skills in spirit magic right now, do you? 』\

“Oh! That’s right! 』\

My spirit magic had evolved into spirit user. Maybe spirit user could work.

“Zeal!”

“I’m on it! Thunder Dragon!”

I immediately gave half of my magic power to Zeal to materialize. That left me almost empty of magic power, so I immediately drank an MP potion while watching Zeal’s magic.

“Mimmyeeeeeeee!”

Zeal’s thunder dragon hit the Cicada, who had no intention of avoiding it at all, whether he thought it was spirit magic or not. Then the cicada started screaming, turned over and began flapping its wings and flailing about. But that was not enough to make Zeal’s thunder dragon leave. Apparently, if you’re a spirit user, it works because it’s not spirit magic. In a manner of speaking, the spirit user seems to be of the magic lineage. Since its magic resistance is abnormally high, the cicada will not die from this thunder dragon. However, this means that if it’s not spirit descent. Then we might be able to fight a close battle.

“Why is it that only your spirit magic works!”

“Mine isn’t spirit magic, I’m a spirit user!”

“”Spirit user!””

The three of them, except for Elira, are surprised, but what do they know about spirit users? I’d like to talk to them when we’re done exterminating the cicada.

“Tsuku! taku!”

The cicada seemed to really want to do something about the thunder dragon and released a shockwave. This time, the shockwave was not omni-directional, but rather concentrated on a single point. With a single blow, Zeal’s thunder dragon disappeared and the one-pointed shockwave hit us one by one. Even though it was a single point of concentration, it was as big as a person, so we had a hard time avoiding it. I was able to avoid it with my high-speed crisis detection.

“Ha ha…”

“Kuh…”

“Aah…”

“Goha…”

No one but me was able to evade. Each of them were blown away. I’m worried and want to go to the four of them, but after the shockwave, there is a recoil…I think. So I, who can use the spirits, have to fight the Cicada while I still can.

Sophia’s Point of View

My brother rejected me and left me. This time I understood. Until now, I thought my brother needed me. But it was the other way around; I really needed him.

Then I thought about why he rejected me. Because monsters appeared, because my ideas were different from his and because of the elves….

I have one dead skill among all the skills I have acquired through evolution. That skill is a magic skill, but I can’t use it. Not because it’s weak in effect, but because I can’t use it in the first place. But I was fine with that. I wasn’t particularly driven to use it. But because of my naivete, my brother rejected me. I’ll use this to get the demons, the elves…everything that stands in our way …….

I used that magic and combined it with spatial magic. I lost more than half of the magic power I had accumulated for nearly half a year because I was forced to use magic I shouldn’t have been able to use.

“I never thought this mistress would be called into this world. Was it you who summoned this mistress?” (TN: She’s speaking in a very ancient way, the word translated as ‘mistress’ could also be translated as ‘concubine’ but I felt that sounded weird in English).

Clash! After the sound of a black crack in the space, the crack widened and two women appeared. The one who spoke as soon as she appeared was a beautiful girl with twin-tailed silver hair, round red eyes, about 130 cm tall and wearing a black cajolery outfit with two pairs of bat-like wings on her back. Next to her was a silver-eyed, expressionless maid with ponytails and hair the opposite color of the first beautiful girl’s eyes and hair.

The magic I used along with spatial magic was devil (Akuma) magic. This is probably a devil version of spirit magic. I don’t know of a devil version of a place like the spirit tree for elves, nor do I know of a magic circle that summons devils. So I forced myself to invoke it in conjunction with spatial magic.

“The Lord’s wish was… ah! Kill that little boy…guffaw!”

“…I don’t know if you were joking or not and I’m not interested, but next time I’ll kill you.”

She started joking around while looking at my brother who was fighting, so I made her grovel with gravity magic. These guys will be useful, so I’ll forgive their outburst to my brother just once. But the next time you say it, I won’t forgive you.

“Disrespectful.”

“What? Do you want to be friends with the ground as much as this one?”

The maid outfit said so and moved to stop my magic. If I decide she’s not useful, I’ll kill her immediately. It doesn’t matter if I kill the two of them at worst, it will be an experience.

“It’s fine…it’s fine.”

“Yes.”

But before that could happen, the Kajuloli stopped the one in the maid outfit.

“You still have so much magic left in you after forcibly summoning this mistress…. Good, make a pact! Name this mistress!”

After releasing the gravity spell, the Kajuloli stood up, patted her clothes to remove the dirt, and then said so with her chest, which she didn’t have, out. Since she seemed to listen to me properly, I decided to give her a name.

“Dia and Shifa.”

“I am Dia from this day forward!”

“I am very glad to hear that. I will call myself Shifa.”

I named the Kajuloli Dia and the maid outfit Shifa, and I made a pact with the devil.

“Demonic possession.”

“You can’t just sign a contract and suddenly use two of us at the same time…!”

I had seen the flow of magic in my brother’s descent from the spirits, so I know how to do it. When I tried to do that with a demon, these words came out naturally.

“Ku…”

Suddenly using two devils at the same time seems pretty tough, even for me. Due to the sudden increase in status, I can’t move my body as much as I would like. I tried to use magic, but I couldn’t use it well. But after a while, I will get used to it and be able to move. I still have a lot of magic power, so there is no problem.

“Wait a little longer… Zero-niisama.”
