Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 178.3
Seda’s breathing out roughly, her eyes reddened to the whites, her muscles swelled and even sharp claws and fangs extended as she exhaled roughly as if she was breathing on her shoulders.
So that’s their “secret trick”? I had never seen this phenomenon before, but I was familiar with the flow of magical elements.
“…”Curse Sorcery” is it?”
Curse Sorcery was a magic technique also used by the “Sage,” an elven sorcerer in the Assassin’s Guild.
Seda, too, used the medium of a card to put a “curse” on her own body, temporarily transforming her into something close to a monster.
“So, using magic to transform into a demon… is that why they are called the ‘Demon Clan’?”
“That’s right. I’ve shown you this much. I’ll end it right away with your death.”
The clan members must have been strengthened physically by sorcery. As expected of a chosen warrior, I honestly felt that it was a great feat that she still had her ego left after being cursed to this degree.
If you combine the wisdom and skill of humans with the strength and toughness of monsters, you should be able to defeat most enemies. But no matter how strong you get, if your opponent was a monster, there are ways to fight monsters as well.
“…What is it?”
Seda narrowed her bright red eyes at me as I held my knife and dagger in their sheaths and held up a one-meter long sickle type pendulum.
*Dan!!
At the same time, I kicked the stone floor and jumped out, assigning my body enhancement to speed, and kicked Seda’s claws at the moment of interaction.
Seda ran up the wall with the momentum of her leap, kicked the ceiling as high as the roof of a two-story building, and aimed her claws at me. I deflected the claws as if I were slamming a weight on them, rolled away, and ran towards where Selik and the others were.
“I can’t let you get away!”
“Then go after me.”
“Seda!”
Selik shouted at me and the transformed Seda chased after me.
The battle between the supply convoy and the Great Boar was still ongoing. I could see that the Great Boar’s body was dying, but he was still rampaging, leaving more dead and wounded in the supply convoy.
“Gah!”
I let the blade-sickle type bite into one of the supply convoy people, and as I switched positions as if pulling a string, Seda’s claw, aimed at me, tore the man’s neck open.
“You aaaaah!”
Seda noticed this, let out a cry of rage, and waved her claws at me as I slipped further through the supply convoy.
Seda, having been turned into a monster, had an ego but no emotional control. Sage had controlled the behavior of someone he cursed by binding them with spells and drugs, but Seda had hurt her friends, and her anger caused her to go even more out of control, needlessly hurting them.
“Stop it, Seda!!!”
Selik, stunned for a moment, raised his voice, and at the same time Seda’s rampaging body was swallowed by shadows.
Quickly, he isolated Seda with [Shadow Walk], but then what? His shield, which was in charge of close combat, was gone.
“Damn!”
Selik pulled the same tag as Seda’s out of his pocket as he backed away and immediately tore it up. He must have thought that even though his melee skills were lower than Seda’s, he could fight me if he turned into a monster. He was right in his thinking. Therefore, I could expect that, as well… And there he went.
“Ooooooh!!!”
Selik, who had drawn his knife and turned into a monster, slashed at me. I pointed my fingertips straight at my target… and then.
“–[Phantom Pain]–“
“Gah!”
