184 Alien Demon Race
The army of the demons immediately approached the vicinity of the capital.
The forests around the capital of the king were burned, and the fields were trampled.
The demon army was already in a 20-foot position.
What I didn't attack immediately depended on how we got out.
Meanwhile, the Astelle side also gathered soldiers from the surrounding area to respond.
Not only regular soldiers, but also militia and adventurer guilds.
Still, we don't have enough men.
The periphery of the Astel kingdom Meteor is almost flat, so the topographical advantage cannot be taken.
Therefore, it was handled by digging holes around the royal capital with magic, and laying formation and barricade. However, it was all a rush, so there was no denying that it was unreliable. Considering that the opponent was a demonic race, I wasn't sure if it would be effective. If we were to be pushed over, we would easily be trampled underfoot.
It's better to have one than not to have one.
Graziella said she saw those defenses.
The strategic objective of the Castle War is to defend the city and buy time.
Delaying the opponent's advance will allow time for the rescue to arrive and allow them to attack once they are at full strength. The enemy forces will have to cope with a two-way attack, so they will be forced to fight. While attacking, the enemy forces cannot avoid the loss of supplies, and eventually have to retreat.
I don't know what's going on with the supply of demon troops, but it looks like we're going to have a good fight here on Theory Street.
It's just that the first part of the fight on the plains is different.
"Why?" I think it would be easier to fight if you were in the city. "
"If it's an old battle, we can't operate the wizards together." Some of them cast magic from above the walls, but some of the demons were flying in the air. That could make it even more attractive. "
So...
In the previous Battle of Nelferia, the attacking demons were intercepted in the mountains.
I remember using magic all at once. If you use magic on such a scale in an urban area, the structure will be damaged, and there is a risk that the structure will become a wall and not be able to transmit its full power.
Considering these things, it seems common to use magic in places where there is no cover, and then scrape as much of the enemy's power as possible before retreating into the walls.
...... Now, the Turtles were in the same corner of the formation.
As we prepare for the clash with the demons, we hear conversations between Titania and Graziella.
Why aren't the demons going to besiege us?
I don't know. I don't know what the demons think.
Mizuki joins the conversation.
Is that strange?
Yeah. It's too funny.
Tia, why?
Easy. If we divide the army into three to four and surround the capital, we will be forced to return to the capital, and it will be difficult to send news to allies one by one.
"You don't want to let them hide inside the wall, either?" Isn't it difficult for the demons to fight if they are caught? "
"It's certainly not inconceivable, but the siege has more flavor than that." Of course, it's better to protect them. "
Hmmm.
"In the first place, I can't understand how people can evacuate." It's like I'm telling you to run away. What the hell did they attack for? "
"It's not that I want territory, and the demon tribe's purpose is to destroy humans... but the attack method is loose and there's no siege."
Both Titania and Graziella seemed to have mysterious ways of attacking the demons.
From their point of view, it seemed like the demons were out of their hands.
Currently, the Demon Clan was laying a horizontal formation in front of them. The Astelle army is preparing to make a barricade to cope with this, but the demons are overwhelmingly more numerous, so they have a bit of a heart.
... as before, it's not like they're going to attack us in pieces.
I was going to wait for the soldiers and time to arrive and attack them all at once.
From that, I can see that the controls are well balanced.
Riji asks Gregory.
What's the evacuation status of the city?
My evacuation legs are dull and I'm not moving as I'd like.
Why? Even though the demons are here soon?
"All of a sudden, it's too sudden for me to feel anything." Because of that, you can't escape laziness. Now I'm starting to realize the seriousness of the situation.
This world, like the rest of the world, is not transmitting information quickly.
It must have been "too sudden" to spur on it. Because of the invasion, which is too unrealistic, I may think that it is "it will be okay" and "it is a transitory thing".
There is also a time limit for the state to force evacuation. The distance to the evacuation site will be considerable, and there will be a lot of confusion as the men will have to stay out.
While I was thinking about it, the ground began to shake.
The demons started to move.
Mizuki opens her mouth as she senses it.
"It's finally starting..."
Mizuki, if it's tough, you can go into the city.
When Riji said that, Mizuki shook her head sideways.
"No, I'll fight too." Riji-kun can't be the only one with a hard time. "
"Mizuki..."
Mizuki-sama will protect us even if we give up our lives.
Riji's anxiety was allayed by Gregory and the others.
Luca and Lofley nodded reliably in line with Gregory's remarks.
Riji says to them, "Thank you," and turns to Titania.
"I can get one shot."
Master Rage, thank you very much for your help.
When Titania bowed her head in awe, Riji stepped forward to take the lead.
Then the soldiers who realized it cleared the way.
Everyone was nervous, but perhaps they had the courage to see Riji come forward, and there was a colour of relief in their expressions.
Riji is happy that his existence has become the courage of others.
As the soldiers' voices arrived, they eventually came to the front.
This is the only boundary where nothing happens.
There is no bump or disturbance as if it was pulled straight by a ruler.
... there was a great army of demons in front of me. This is the second time we've dealt with an enemy this size.
Even so, a trembling sensation still reigns.
How many must be defeated? I don't know how much I have to fight.
Such anxiety pushed to my chest.
I stretched my cheeks to avoid losing to such anxiety.
Thanks to that, I recall the lines of a movie I saw before.
Fear is a hallucination that's only in your head.
Fear does not come from the outside. It's something that you create in your own head, and ultimately it's your own weakness.
You can't be scared to notice something like that.
That's right.
I'm here to prove it.
There was a voice questioning my worth.
There was a voice questioning the existence.
To beat the sound of a bullet that I heard at that time.
... when Riji tried to arm Sacramento, a demon tribe came forward.
It was a female demon race with horns. They were wrapped in clothes like knight costumes, with a sword pointed at their waist. Her hair is white, her eyes are red with fresh blood, and her skin is brown. He looked closer to humans than any demon race I've ever seen.
The demonic female drew her sword from her waist and pointed at its tip.
You're the Astellite hero, Rage.
"Yes, it is."
I am Moura, the general who commands this army of demons.
The female demon tribe raised its name by saying so. Coming forward with us means that you are confident in your own strength.
But I was surprised.
I've seen a demon race in human form before, but this female demon race is almost human in appearance. There are just corners. Just hang on to the power of the evil gods. Get rid of them and you'll be a beautiful woman.
But I couldn't help but hesitate. The woman in front of her is the head of the enemies who are about to ravage the people. Although the figure may be indefinitely similar to a human, all doubts must be discarded.
While Riji thought so, Moolah turned to him with a slightly irritated look.
"Even though you're going to fight now, what do you mean by the whole thing?" You don't think I've been killed myself? "
"I already have a weapon."
"What--"
Listening to Moolah's puzzled voice, Riji said a certain word.
Yes, the words that Riseea, the knight who entrusted me with, taught me.
"--Crystallize into the sparkle of my lapis." The Crystal Sword... summoned out of bounds! "
Filled with a pale glow from Ruiji's hand, it spread wide enough to envelop him, and eventually, the armored Ishar Cluster pattern settled in his hand.
It was a slender straight sword and had a frozen coldness.
"It's a strange weapon... different from the power of the goddess"
It seems that Moura is aware of the existence of the Sacrament.
Riji slashed at Moolah with momentum, leaving behind a lingering aftermath of his arming.
Let's go!!
Don't lick it!
By contrast, Moora intercepts it.
As soon as the black odomi (...) was attached to the straight sword, it became darker.
It was as if blood vessels were crawling like worms in the rotten, blackened arms.
The slashing blow from the top that Riji launched was taken by the sword that was knocked down.
A shock wave was created by the collision between the sword and the sword, and a gust of wind created by the aftermath struck both humans and demons.
It was frozen by the cold pressure emanating from the Ishar Cluster, and the power of the dense evil god of Kataya Moura made me feel exhilarated.
In a sudden confrontation, Riji's sword began to push Moura.
"... this is..."
Not yet!
I'm still pushing it gradually. I was able to push through. Even though I had such a feeling, Riji quickly changed his mind. I may be able to push it off, but it's still at the "maybe" stage.
Riji sees the power of the evil gods that builds up in Moolah's entire body, he opens his distance and moves on to the next powerful attack.
Ishar Cluster!
Riji unleashes the power of Sacramento with the voice of his sword.
The pale light creates a number of crystalline masses in the air reminiscent of crystals and ice.
Riji shot out the chunk of crystal by swinging his sword, and stretched the crystal like a spike from the surroundings.
With the incoming crystal rain and spear, Moolah was able to prevent it.
Or slash and fly.
Or a parry.
Only with the power of her sword technique.
I didn't use any of the power of the evil gods. It was almost like a pompous sword.
With this prowess, you won't be able to take on Titania without prowess in close quarters.
Meanwhile, the corner of the column behind Moolah is entangled in the power of the crystal.
The massive crystalline debris breaks apart as if it were bursting, and then becomes finer and more diffuse. It penetrated many demons.
There was a big hole in the line of battle, as if I had egged it with a giant spoon.
By defeating a wide range of demons, the soldiers behind them cheered loudly.
The big hole in the line was immediately blocked by the demons.
He is at an open distance from me.
It prevents jumping props and dusty moves.
Then I'll sue the underworld (Estrike).
The moment Riji was thinking about it.
Moura is closing in at a terrifying rate.
"Kuku"
"Things are going around in the middle of a battle, brave man!!"
Riji was bombarded by Moolah's violent sword strikes. But we can't just keep getting hit. While bounced, it instantly generates crystals by hitting Moolah.
Multiple small crystals are fired like stones to dampen Moolah's movements.
As Moolah's legs stopped for a moment, we immediately reassigned ourselves and scratched the ground with the soles of our shoes, stopping at the spot.
In front of me was a female demon clan that finished the crystal and stood majestically.
"Strong..."
That's the honest feeling that Riji had for Moora.
Her strength is different from that of Ilzar. There was a strong sense of restraint, but I had a lot of skill. Of course, the power of the evil gods could not be compared to the demons everywhere.
Rather, it was more than the demons that had fought before.
The more I thought it was like that, the more numbing aftermath remained in my hands.
Instead, Moora held down her sword and returned her heel to her.
As if I were leaving with a cut, I showed my defenseless back.
Riji cannot help shouting at the strange behavior.
What the hell are you doing!
"I'll leave you to it."
"You can show me your back and go back."
"Hmm. Is there anything you need to care more about than me?"
"What--?"
It was right after Moura said that. The demon army started moving all at once.
Late, voices began to fly behind me.
Intercept with magic!
Prepare for battle!
It was like a chorus of spells, which increased its magic power.
After a huge wave of magic, the flames eventually covered the sky like curtains.
The flame turned into a waterfall and fell down on the demons.
Smoke rises, and all kinds of smoke - black smoke, white smoke, and soot - fill the clouds.
Shortly after, it was the aftermath of the attack on Riji. If you put your hand forward a little, a gust of heat that is likely to cause burns and carbonization will strike you as a heat wave.
In the meantime, the signs of Titania behind them.
"Master Rage, please step down once." The magical attacks are going to be even more intense.
"All right."
Riji nods hard and retreats with her.
The magic attacks were intense. In the medieval wars of the world beyond, they usually shoot bows and arrows first, but in this world they shoot magic at the previous stages. After blowing up most of them, we'll go on the offensive.
With that, Mizuki, who was too late to shoot the magic, shouted impatiently.
I-I don't have to shoot you, do I?
We're saving it. Mizuki needs to move to protect Rage.
"Um, yeah!... but it's amazing. I wonder if I can defeat all of this?"
"No, I can't. I just burned the enemy in front of me and it's over." As long as it lasts, it's a different story, but it's not like there's no strategy.
"Ah, the demons also have the power of evil gods..."
The demons will probably use it to boost their magic against us.
"But you only use fire magic?" Isn't it possible to use many other kinds of magic more like this? "
"In magic, fire magic and lightning magic are powerful." Moreover, if you shoot magic with a different attribute than the first magic you shoot, it will rebound, weaken, and beat the worst. "
In order to increase the effectiveness of magic, we must have magic.
"When the magic is over, the bow. When the bow was finished, the demons attacked. Reiji-sama, Mizuki, get ready."
Yeah.
I got it!
Riji and Mizuki replied, and Graziella fisted.
"Rage, my magic is massive." Don't get caught up in it by going too far in front of you. "
It's okay, my crystal won't lose anymore.
"I told you."
While interacting with Graziella like that, Riji kept looking at the front where the dust was already soaring.
The anti-excitation sprouted when Moura showed me my back. However, neither of them did their best, so the neighborhood will be different.
Ryuji said to herself to suppress her frustration, and the demons rushed out of the smoke.
The soldiers responded with magic, bows, and stones to stop the demons from approaching.
Riji also used the power of the Ishar Cluster to shower the demons with clumps of crystals.
(All right, all right)
From the experience of fighting so far, I was able to read the demon tribe's movements to a certain extent.
The demons who run across the ground fight back with their sword moves using the Ishar Cluster. The flying Winged Demon Clan stretched out a number of pointed crystals from the ground and shot them down while hiding in the shadows.
As long as you are careful of the pollution around you, you won't fall behind unless you do a lot of things.
The Ishar Cluster is the only one that can give us an edge in this fight. Now that we can arm ourselves and use Sacramento's abilities, we have increased the scope of our attacks.
"If this is....."
Yes, of course. It's impossible to defeat all of these demons, but it should be possible to reduce them significantly by the end of the Castle War.
I can fight.
I didn't fall behind.
It is by no means worthless.
Like that, it was when Riji found hope in his own battle.
Suddenly, a violent nausea rises up in his chest.
"Ughhh!!"
Something wrong. An attack from the demons. When I rounded my body so that I couldn't feel it without knowing it.
Titania rushes towards me in a hurry when she realizes it.
Lady Rage! How are you doing?!
"No, no..."
Nausea, the cause is a sign. A terrible sign. A terrible concentration of dozens or even hundreds of times the Odomi that Mullah had just swung at the sword was unleashed from an unknown place.
What's the matter? It doesn't look like she was attacked....."
"Leave, Riji-kun..."
Graziella and Mizuki gazed worriedly.
However, it seems that the same symptoms do not occur.
All three of you, take this sign.
It's a sign, isn't it?
"From over there... there's something really unpleasant about it..."
Riji gave such a terrible explanation.
Explosive sounds rumble from the corner of the defensive line.
When Niji and the others looked at you with a lag, there was a hole in the area.
It wasn't the soldiers, it was the blood.
See it and understand it right away. Someone attacked them, and the soldiers disappeared. The prototype didn't stop and disappeared. Some of the soldiers were scattered around.
However, the demons have not yet managed to break through the soldiers' interceptions, nor have they been able to reach our territory. If so, did you launch any powerful attacks?
"Ugh..."
As soon as the chaos spreads around you, you will feel even more intense disgust and strength.
The soaring soil and blood smoke were clearing up ahead. What was there was a demon race with a more horrible figure than any demon race I had ever seen.
It's like a combination of insects and beasts. It is reminiscent of a plastic model that was made with only the parts of the collection.
He is two and a half meters tall, and has a furrowed hand, and a long arm.
"That's..."
Chi, I'm getting a bad feeling about this
Titania and Graziella also delayed the arrival of the sign, blowing sweat on their foreheads and neck.
While Riji and the others unusually stiffened their bodies, an alien demonic race began to move toward the nearby soldiers.
Soldiers try to fight multiple freakish demons, but their arms shatter apart in one swing.
It was a similar move as if you were going to wipe away the bugs with your hands.
They weren't my opponents. In the first place, it's not even in my eyes, is it? It was a terribly cluttered and unscrupulous move that made me think of it that way.
The soldiers of Astell's army were ravaged by the sudden appearance of an alien demonic race.
One-sided and hopeless. It was an indisputable massacre, not a battle.
"Uwaaaaaaaaaa!?"
"Ku, don't come! Don't come ahhhhhhhh!"
The screams of soldiers infect other soldiers with fear. At once, the surroundings were in a state of panic.
As the soldiers retreated in fear, an alien demonic race headed for the next flock.
In the blink of an eye, Riji saw a scene similar to the one he had just seen.
Arms, legs, and heads that flew a thousand times as blood spurted out. These were all illusions predicted by Riji's brain on its own, and they were still a reality that was gradually approaching.
When such a hallucination was approaching in a few seconds before his eyes to catch up with reality.
Nooooooooooooo!
When I noticed it, I screamed and ran towards the alien demon race.
Sew up the gaps between the soldiers. Still, it's fast and powerful.
Unleash the full power of the goddess and the power of Sacramento.
At a staggering rate of speed of light, it interrupts the alien demons and soldiers, swinging the Ishar Cluster.
However, even faster than that, the thrilling claws were swung.
- It's fast.
Riji immediately switched his thoughts and used the Ishar Cluster as a shield to try to catch the claws of the alien demon.
With the power of Sacramento, we will be able to catch them. If it dramatically improves the power of the possessor, even a giant demonic opponent won't be able to pull back.
"Yes, I was sure you'd take it..."
"Ufu...!?"
At the moment of impact, it was a relentless shock that hit Riji.
Unable to absorb its power, Riji was greatly blown away by the blind faith in Ishar Cluster. Because you took your consciousness with you for a moment, you can't passively take it away.
"Gu-ha-ha-ha-ha"
All the air came out of my lungs. You suddenly run out of oxygen. However, breathing does not go well. Cold sweat is pouring out of every pore in your body.
However, while his vision was stupid like a marble, like a daze, I could see an alien demon race approaching. Shit. Shit. Shit. I can't get back in shape. You're going to die like this.
When Riji became afraid, Ishar Cluster's shattered azure (Lapis Udaix) still glowed with colour
"--I ask for something that comes from the other side and is not visible to this side." My call is the power to divert the world from the inseparable reason of cotton and jump over any logic-open! Divigi Connecti! "
There was a hole in the sky. Immediately, a gigantic piece of rock emerges from it.
It was as if you had turned the mountain top upside down, and it was attacking the alien demon tribe with a huge mass.
An earthquake-like tremor drowned the area, and the figure of the alien demon was immediately filled into the grey of a huge rock mass.
Meanwhile, Riji was woken up by Titania, who rushed over.
Raige-sama! Be safe!
"Ah, ahhh... yeah. I can do it."
Riji breathes on the spot, haha, and shoulders. I still can't breathe well. The palpitations do not subside. If Graziella's magic were a little later, she'd be dead here by now.
Immediately get back in position and pay attention to your surroundings.
Unpleasant signs emanating from the alien demonic race had not disappeared yet.
Ah, Tia, come on!
Ah-Yes!
Immediately after Titania replied, Graziella's massive rock masses exploded as if they had been blasted with dynamite.
Riji quickly switched back and forth with Titania and used the Ishar Cluster to create a crystal shield.
A glassy, clear crystal barrier rises in front of you. In any case, it seems like a heart that would be shattered by losing to a rock mass. No matter how strong the dust is, there is no crack in it. On the contrary, the rock mass that was hit was more shattered.
Even when receiving the dust from the rock mass, the alien demon clan was violently approaching.
Looking ahead, Riji made the crystal shield even thicker.
Raj-sama!?
"Tier back! Hurry!"
What was unleashed was the alien demonic rush. It is the most powerful attack because it is simple.
However, the crystal shield has grown more than twice as thick.
I can't shatter it with a little gentle touch.
However, I was surprised that the crystal shield had cracked.
"- Hmph!? This isn't good either!"
Riji immediately changes his policy.
I stretched my shield gently to create a route to try to deflect the body.
However, it was a sideways slide. However, the alien demonic race followed Riji's intentions and rolled over the ground without losing control of its power.
Appeals to surrounding soldiers without tolerance.
"Get away from me! It's not good to deal with that!"
Alert and disperse the soldiers around you.
A massive scraping of the ground raises the smoke and shrouds part of the line of sight.
Rage!
Lady Rage!
Graziella, who was rushing towards her, and Titania, who was regaining his position, tightened their sides.
Eventually, as if crawling slowly out of the ground, a freakish demonic race began to emerge. Behind the earth smoke, the demonic glow of the eyes painted on the ground wobbled.
Cold scare running from top to bottom on my spine.
It was as if a huge icicle had been inserted into his back.
"What the hell is that?" You look like a demon general back then. "
No, honestly, I think it's more horrible than that. What do you mean, the disgust that springs from the depths of my body is stronger than the rest of the demons?"
Riji agreed with Titania.
This alien demon race is too powerful. Compared to other demons, they have less intelligence, so you can say that the signs of power and power are more than that.
However, it seems that you are not completely in control of your power when you see the attack on your body earlier. It seems like a rampaging machine that doesn't have the necessary force to fight, but just attacks what it sees.
That was the most troublesome part.
(What should I do!? What should I do with someone like that!?)
I can't think well because I'm showing off my strength.
What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? That monotonous word is repeated in the brain and halved.
At a time like this, if there was Shiming...
If Shiming were there, maybe she would come up with some kind of good plan.
As soon as he thought about it, Riji suddenly noticed.
I was wondering if I could count on him during this period.
I wondered if it was really worthwhile to rely on him forever.
Riji shakes his head sideways, shaking his thoughts.
"Master Rage, it's time!" I'm leaving! "
Raise your face.
Time limit. After a certain amount of wear and tear to the demon race, we gradually pull back into the gate.
As originally planned, Riji and the others moved into battle without delay to retreat.
