Chapter 167 - I Tried Destroying It

I Tried Destroying It

I felt that the cannon was about to fire soon, and so I used Magic Transfer once again.

Things would get really bad if I didn’t end this soon.

‘Magic Transfer—Hellfire of Obliteration.’

I used the same magic again.

However, this time I transferred it to five different slimes.

The light flashed white instead of red as Hellfire of Obliteration attacked the cannon.

The overwhelming heat caused the air to expand, and a violent wind blew through the cave.

‘Wha...what is this firepower!? What magic did you use!?’

The dragon asked in surprise as it crouched low.

While dragons were strong against fire, even it could feel this heat.

As for the slimes that were a short distance away...

‘Ahhh!’

‘Gaaah! It’s so hot!’

They said as they rolled around on the ground in a panic.

Even I knew that slimes were weak against heat.

That’s why I had protected them with a ‘Magic Reflect Barrier’... Was it not enough?

‘I put a barrier around you guys... Was it really that hot?’

I asked the slimes.

If Magic Reflect Barrier wasn’t capable of blocking heat, I would have to reconsider the way I approached battles from now on.

As I considered this...

‘Huh? Oh, it’s not hot...’

‘Now that I think of it, it isn’t hot at all!’

‘I’m fine!’

Apparently, the slimes had just seen the magic and started shouting about it being hot.

So the barrier had protected them after all.

I felt stupid for getting worried.

‘Alright, seems like that did it.’

Once the wind and smoke had died down, the large cannon was nowhere to be seen.

What I could see, was melted metal and a black stake.

‘So, the stake doesn’t melt even when the metal does...curses sure are crazy...’

‘No, that is not what is surprising here. What magic did you use just now...? What happened?’

The dragon said as it raised its head.

Apparently, it had never seen Hellfire of Obliteration being used multiple times at once.

Well, it was also my first time doing it.

‘I just used Hellfire of Obliteration.’

‘...Even I know of the power of that spell. It is not that strong.’

‘Well, you know how you can activate multiple spells at once by using Magic Transfer? That makes it more powerful.’

‘Ah, multiple activations through Magic Transfer, I know of that. But what does that have to do with...’

The dragon looked at the slimes suspiciously.

Then after a few seconds of thought—it shouted.

‘Surely not... You are able to do that with Hellfire of Obliteration!?’

‘Yeah. It was on a whim... So I’m glad it worked out.’

‘On a whim... No, that is not a spell you can just activate multiple times on a whim... Or is it?’

Really?

I wasn’t aware that Hellfire of Obliteration was seen that way.

But now that I think of it, I usually didn’t use powerful magic around other people.

After all, there were no humans that knew about the ‘Sage’ job.

This dragon probably knew more about magic than anyone I had met up until now.

Still, I should probably ask the dragon why it didn’t think it was possible.

Perhaps it would help me in the future.

‘Why shouldn’t I be able to activate it multiple times at once?’

‘Why do you think? It’s not just ‘Obliteration.’ Most advanced magic cause tremendous stress on the caster. It should not even be possible to do double at once...and yet, you can?’

‘I don’t know why... I just tried it and it was possible. There was no special trick to it.’

‘...Yuji. Are you really human?’

Oh, it was really suspicious now. I could tell by the voice.

How rude.

‘I am human. ...Anyway, shouldn’t we be going now? I don’t want to give them any more time.’

Five minutes had already passed since I destroyed the cannon.

In the meantime, the Blue Moon of Salvation would be making preparations for dealing with the dragon.

Still, that cannon was likely their trump card, but who knows? This was the Blue Moon of Salvation. It was best to not underestimate them.
