8-18. The Sense of Discomfort in this Situation
“Alriiight…!”
“This is the last one!”
“Gaah…!”
A splendid roundhouse kick hits directly on the face, sending the angel flying while spinning mid-air.
Reizen’s physical attack is incredibly strong.
Considering this isn’t even a skill, it’s quite impressive.
The angel they were facing wasn’t particularly strong, and the one who used Roar Cannon seemed to only possess that powerful skill.
It took a bit of effort to take them down since they were flying, but the enemy also used a close-range pseudo-skill, which resulted in their defeat.
Yes, it seems that the two they were fighting were pseudo-angels, while only one of them was a real angel.
They clearly didn’t use any attacks strong enough to be called skills.
That was fortunate for Reizen, but he still clicked his tongue softly.
With a loud crash, fragments of the barrier started falling from the sky.
This meant that the barrier had been destroyed.
There wasn’t even time to reinforce it with magic.
In other words, the Dome Shield was destroyed with a single blow.
The pseudo-angel who was fighting above had entered and was now heading toward the castle.
It seemed they intended to attack the humans.
“Dad!”
“I know, but these lots don’t bear any skill! Let’s help Amariaz!”
“Got it!”
Amariaz had been dealing with Kyurii the whole time.
While it had only been a few minutes, a minute during battle feels terrifyingly long.
They had to go help quickly.
As that thought crossed their mind and they turned around, everything suddenly went black.
What had happened in that brief moment?
A question arose, but the next shock that hit gave the answer.
“Noooaaa!!”
“Blergh!?”
Amariaz came flying toward them, smashing into their face, and they both went tumbling across the ground.
It didn’t hurt much, but the impact was certainly felt.
Carefully pushing Amariaz aside, they stood up.
“Hey, what happened…?”
“‘What happened?’ What do you mean!? I seriously hate that thing!”
“You’re talking about Kyurii, right? Can you tell me what skills she has?”
“I don’t know why she has that, but… Kyurii’s main skill is ‘Delayed Shock’!”
“What’s that?”
Dad also seemed unsure, tilting his head in confusion.
Of course, it’s hard to understand skills you don’t possess yourself…
“So, what kind of skill is that?”
When I asked, Amariaz glared bitterly at one spot.
Following his gaze, both of us looked over to see Kyurii spreading her wings, flying in the air.
“‘Delayed Shock’… It seems she’s infusing it with earth-type skills, but simply put, it creates two impacts. The second impact is much stronger than the first.”
“Uh huh…?”
“Still not clear?”
“In other words, don’t get hit by the second attack!!”
That explanation made it easy to understand!
…But wasn’t that the attack that sent Amariaz flying toward me earlier?
If he had taken that without protection, it could have been seriously dangerous.
That means the attack is really that powerful.
After a moment of staring each other down, Reizen furrowed his brows.
Reizen wasn’t the smartest, but in battle, his mind worked fast enough.
He was starting to feel something off about the current situation and the continued hostility from Kyurii.
“…Amariaz.”
“Huh, what is it, Reizen-san?”
“Did that angel keep attacking even though it knew the attacks weren’t working?”
“Huh? …Yeah, pretty much…?”
Hearing Amariaz’s reply, Reizen looked up.
Through the hole in the destroyed Dome Shield, the pseudo-angels were descending toward the castle.
Karna and the elite knights of the Garott Kingdom were there, so they wouldn’t be defeated easily.
However, Reizen was growing concerned about the situation with Abyss and Lize, who had been fighting above the Dome Shield.
He couldn’t see Abyss’ massive white form.
And now that he thought about it, the sound of the Lightning Cannon had also stopped.
Were they both okay?
Moreover, Reizen was feeling a deep sense of discomfort at how long Kyurii had been attacking Amariaz, who was protected by the Substitution skill.
It would be nearly impossible to break through that defensive skill with regular abilities.
At best, Kyurii could knock him back and cause some shock.
While fire or lightning skills might be exceptions, Kyurii didn’t possess those abilities.
There were three people here who were essentially impossible to damage through normal means.
In this situation, attacking Reizen and Yuuzen, who had absurdly high defense, made no sense.
And yet, Kyurii wasn’t fleeing.
In fact, she still seemed intent on attacking.
“…I’ve been bothered by the presence of that weakling angel that showed up earlier…”
“Dad, did you figure something out?”
“That one’s just stalling for time. The ones who broke in aren’t the main force… which means…!”
Reizen quickly looked to the sky.
The hole in the Dome Shield was visible, but no fighting seemed to be going on outside anymore.
“The main force must have gone toward Lize and the others!”
“What!?”
“The fight here must have been a signal. The hidden main force likely attacked Lize and Abyss.”
“Then, we need to get back there quickly…”
“No, eliminating the threat here comes first. We can’t fly, and besides, that one won’t let us go so easily.”
As soon as Reizen finished speaking, Kyurii moved her hands, creating several lumps of earth.
They immediately flew toward them.
