Chapter 110: Joined Forces with the Strongest Knight in the Knight Department
Seeing the man appear before him, Rest’s eyes widened.
“Wilhelm Lubase…. Why are you here…!?”
The one who appeared was the strongest man among the first-year students in the Knight Department.
He was Wilhelm Lubase, also known as the “Sword Saint” who despises women.
His appearance was unexpected. Receiving the unexpected help, Rest was momentarily frozen in surprise.
Seizing that opportunity, a corrosive beast leaped towards them.
“GYAO!”
“…!”
Rest attempted to intercept the leaping corrosive beast with magic.
However, Wilhelm moved faster than him.
“Almakain Dance of Blades… ‘Sanka'”
Multiple slashes were unleashed in an instant.
The corrosive beast disintegrated in mid-air and fell apart onto the ground.
“Fast…!”
Wilhelm’s movements were unbelievably fast, rivaling even Rest’s use of [Super Acceleration].
Moreover, he effortlessly sliced through the bodies of the corrosive beasts, which had extremely tough fur.
(And that sword… It looks like a Japanese katana. A sword specialized in slashing attacks?)
“You are… Rest, right? The friend of that woman.”
That woman referred to Yuri Catreya, who has been following Wilhelm on the journey for the “Swordsmanship” class.
“Well, yeah… Yuri is my friend.”
“Why are you here? This isn’t a battlefield for first-year students, is it?”
“I could say the same to you…”
Wilhelm is also a first-year student.
Why is he at the forefront like this?
“If you’re just going to stand there, you should go back. I’ll take care of this.”
“There’s no way I’d be entrusting an important battle to someone I’ve never talked to before. Thank you for helping me, but… wouldn’t it be better for you to go home?”
Rest retorted to Wilhelm.
Although he was technically helped, even without assistance, Rest could have defended with magic.
Wilhelm is a swordsman. He is not well-suited to dealing with corrosive beasts that dissolve weapons, so Rest earnestly advises him to retreat.
“GYAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
“GYAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
As they were talking, several corrosive beasts spewed saliva at them.
“[Star Eater]”
“‘Zanten'”
Rest absorbed the saliva approaching him into the dark star and nullified it.
Wilhelm severed the saliva cannons with his sword. The saliva split into two and disappeared in opposite directions.
“He sliced through the liquid…?”
Wilhelm’s sword showed no signs of breaking or melting while cutting through the corrosive saliva that melted metal.
It seems that he enhances the strength of his weapons by enveloping them with high-density magic. It’s a technique often used by knights and warriors… But Wilhelm’s technique is much more refined than that of other Knight Department students like Danila.
“You nullified the enemy’s attack…? You use strange magic, don’t you?”
Meanwhile, Wilhelm also frowned.
He looked puzzled by the unfamiliar magic used by Rest.
“We can’t afford to have a calm conversation right now…”
For now, Rest cast a wide-range magic to silence the enemies.
“[Lightning storm]!”
Lightning fell like rain, attacking the enemies.
It’s an advanced magic with a wide attack range but low power. It’s only a deterrent against corrosive beasts with strong magic resistance.
“Well done.”
Wilhelm kicked the ground.
Taking advantage of the opening created by the lightning magic, he closed in on the enemies and slashed at the corrosive beasts.
“Magic is convenient. It was good support.”
“I didn’t intend to support you, though…”
“GYAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
The corrosive beasts are about to attack Wilhelm.
Rest shoots magic from a distance to crush the attack before it’s unleashed.
“Almakain Dance of Blades… ‘Fragment’”
Wilhelm cuts down the corrosive beasts even further.
His sword is incredibly fast and incredibly strong.
A perfect form of a swordsman. The ideal swordsmanship that shouldn’t be achievable at his age.
(Truly a genius swordsman… He’s like the protagonist.)
Rest casts magic while Wilhelm swings his sword.
Though unexpected, the situation is now much easier to handle compared to before.
Having support from others makes fighting so much easier, something Rest hadn’t expected.
(I didn’t realize how important cooperation with teammates is… I may need to reconsider a lot of things.)
“GYAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
As Rest and Wilhelm battle the corrosive beasts, Sabnock walks through the plains as if losing interest.
Ignoring the two, he continues towards the entrance of the plains.
If he’s returning deeper into the wilderness, it’s fine, but Sabnock is walking in the opposite direction.
“This is bad… I can’t let him escape!”
“Hey, you…!”
“I’ll handle this! Take care of these guys!”
The number of corrosive beasts has already been reduced to less than half.
Wilhelm alone should be able to handle them adequately.
“I’m counting on you. I’m going after him!”
Activating [Super Acceleration], Rest dashes off at a tremendous speed by kicking off the ground.
He apologized to Wilhelm, but there’s no other choice.
Rest unilaterally pushes the enemy onto someone who is not even a friend, chasing after Sabnock.
