Chapter 29: VS Kyle 2

Kyle Vermillion is the number one wizard in the country. With the skill “Magic Saint” skill, He’s a genius wizard with an overwhelming talent for magic and a wealth of experience in battle…… My brother.

The key to fighting him will be to see how well Vigna’s “magic bayonet” works and how well I can surprise him with my gun.

“Well, I’m kind… I’ll wait for Vigna to finish the treatment.”

He had been looking at me with murderous intent with his earlier words, but when he looked at the sky for a moment, he smiled a generous grin. He just stares at Vigna as she heals Neil and it doesn’t really seem to move him.

I pick up the rifle that Neil dropped in the meantime, suspiciously. It is well cared for and has Noel’s name engraved on it. This alone tells me what he was thinking when he picked up this weapon and fought with it.

“Even so, you can’t use magic, you can’t use swords and you have to work hard a lot. Souzi’s relics… seem to be more useful than I imagined. If you surrender now, I can take you under my wing. Teach me how to use the technology and I’ll let you live.”

“… What are you going to do with that technology?”

“Of course! With that gun and that metal, we’ll have the most powerful army in the world. Guns for the commoners! With light armor for wizards like us, our brother’s army will be no match for us!  The glory of Kyle-Vermillion will begin!”

“The technology is not just for weapons and armor. It can also be used to enrich people’s lives.”

“What’s the point of that? Dad always said “If you have the power, you can do it”. In fact, You’re in trouble because of our power.”

At my question, he smiled maniacally and laughed. Yeah, I knew it, he’s just like my father after all. He only wants to increase his power and influence. In their eyes, they don’t care about the lives of the common people.

If I lose to him, it won’t just be the start of a gun invasion of the surrounding countries. The chain of guardians I made to protect my territory will be used as a weapon and the potatoes will be used as the wizards’ logistics. Rubber and super mithril alloys will be used as tools of war. They would be used not only for people’s daily lives but also as materials for weapons and armor.

Of course, I have made weapons such as guns and armor. But there’s a difference between making power to protect and making it only to destroy.

I remembered what Bowman had said and I understood why Kyle had wasted his time talking to me. I looked at the sky and saw what looked like Galatea facing off the enemies, using the fire dragon and the wyvern as a springboard.

And this time I smiled a generous smile.

“Okay, I get it.”

“Oh, so you’re surrendering? I was just kidding though…. Well, first of all, Vigna needs a maid’s uniform…..”

“I’ll agree that you and I are incompatible! And I’m more into bunny girls than maid outfits! Vigna!”

“Yeah, I’m ready. And no, I’m not going to wear a maid’s or a bunny girl’s outfit.”

With that, Vigna, who had evacuated Neil, came back and stood beside me. Oh no, she heard me. Even though it’s two against one, Kyle is still as relaxed as ever.

He held up his hands and looked down at me with condescending eyes.

“Hey, Grace, why do you think I’m wasting my time with you? Your strength is the weapon that shoots that lump of iron and Vigna. Do you think you can defeat a fire dragon, let alone a wyvern, without that? Your people should have been burned by now…… What the hell is that?”

Having said that, Kyle, who was proudly pointing at the sky makes a stupid sound at the back of his throat. Well, no wonder. The fire dragon that he was proudly talking about right now was kicked by someone and it crashed… I only know of one person who can do that.

Galatea…… You did it. And now it’s our turn to do our part.

“What about the fire dragon? You can surrender and join me, Kyle! Then… well, I wonder if you can do farm work with a hoe.”

“Huh!! Do you think a knight of the king’s guard and a stupid prince can defeat me? Breath of the flame god, become an arrow and shoot through my enemies!”

“Grace, defend yourself! Spirit of the wind, protect me!”

Where did his margin of a while ago go? Kyle has released magic with no questions asked. I guess when your advantage is lost, you lose the right to choose the means.

The wind shield that appeared with Vigna’s chanting protected me from the fire arrows that Kyle fired. Even so, I couldn’t completely dodge it, but the armor made by Bowman protects me from the attack of the weakened fire arrow.

And I fire my gun in return.

“Aaaahh!!, my beautiful face is scratched… you bastaaaaaaard!”

“Hmm, you look more handsome than before, don’t you think? Come on, Grace.”

“Yeah, let’s show him what we’re made of.”

The wind quickly deflected the trajectory of the shot and it only grazed his cheek, but it seemed to have an effect.

When Vigna incites Kyle, who is enraged by the blood coming out of his cheeks, he turns his face in anger.

And then our gunfire and Kyle’s magic went wild on the battlefield.
