Chapter 511: Training is Over!
?Shall we go then??
?Nn!?
?Woof!?
?Let’s take its magic stones and make it as the culmination of our training!?
?Okay. Brilliant Lightning Rush!?
Fran then jumps off of Urushi’s back while holding me. There’s a white smoke below us. It was the Greater Venom Ghast, but that’s not all.
?Don’t let that little girl get away this time!?
?Today is the day for us to kill her?
?This is an impossible fight for you!?
The Wight King was also there. Apparently, Fran had fought with the Wight King many times before. However the Wight King and the Greater Venom Ghast were always close to each other, and because of that, she had become too exhausted to defeat them so she had no choice but to retreat.
?Have you located where that Ghast’s magic stone is?
?No?
?Hmm… Let’s defeat the Wights first then?
?Understood?
?Urushi, take care of its subordinates!?
?Woof!?
In the past, this would have been a rather reckless instruction. Four Wight High Wizards and two Wight Imperial Guards against Urushi alone was too much for him to take care of. He would have only been able to take care of two of them.
However, it wasn’t impossible for the current Urushi.
?Woof!?
???!?
With the use of his Dimensional Fang after his Shadow Transfer, he had immediately inflicted great damage on the High Wizard. They were capable of detecting space-time magic, but since Shadow Transfer was a skill in the same system as dark magic, they seemed unable to detect the surprise attack from this ability.
After that, he repeatedly used hit-and-run tactics to defeat the wights. Urushi, whose life force, defense, and regeneration had all increased compared to before, did not even budge from a few counter-attacks from them.
From time to time, he changed his body size and used deadly poison magic to create smoke and other substances that fly around among the wights to keep them at his mercy.
Of course, it was not an easy win. He was taking a few hits and occasionally he took some heavy damage from strong counterattacks. But that’s all. He never gets into a pinch where we have to intervene, and he never feels uneasy. There was a sense of steadiness and composure in his fight.
?What kind of wolf is that…!??
?Urushi!?
?I’m not asking about its name! And how did you get here in such a short time…!?
?I’ve been training after all?
?If only training can make someone become that strong, then anyone would train!?
The Wight King was screaming at her, but Fran didn’t respond to his words and rushed forward.
?Th-that little girl too! She’s getting even faster!?
?Fuh!?
?Kuh??Short teleport!?
As expected, the Wight King could not be underestimated. Even though he was a magician type, he dodged Fran’s Sheaths of Wind skill. In addition, he used a teleport skill to gain some distance, and immediately after, he unleashed a wide range of ice and snow magic attacks.
?Diamond Dust!?
It was a technique used to freeze a large area. However, Fran had rushed into the attack while using flame and wind magic. She cut through the shimmering ice mist and pushed forward toward the closest Wight.
?Kukaka! I had expected that! Nuooooo! Blast Avalanche!?
The Wight King’s magic created an avalanche on the plains. It was a tsunami of snow that swept over Fran, engulfing a wide area.
He probably would be able to breach the wall of a medium-sized fort with this technique. That’s how destructive his technique was. In addition, the ice created with magic had an unusually cold air around it. So, its danger was much greater than an avalanche of the same scale.
However, Fran only looked at the advancing avalanche and muttered a single word.
?Master?
?Ou! Leave it to me!?
She believed that I could do something??No, she knew that I would do something about it. So, it was my job to answer that trust.
?Haaaa!?
What I released was a huge torrent of light. It wasn’t an emission type of magic power, nor was it fire magic. It was light magic that had been raised to a higher level by consuming some points.
It was the Lv6 Light Magic, Solar-Ray.
When you hear the term “light magic” the first thing you might think of is lasers or beams. To put it simply, it’s similar to the beam gun from an anime. Since it was magic, it was not a simple ray of light, but it looked like a beam.
A pillar of light as thick as a drum shot out and pierced the white tsunami. The light concentrated on a single point melted the avalanche and created a path for Fran to follow. In addition, I used the Light Distraction Membrane that I obtained from Invisible Death to increase the power of the light by increasing its focus point.
The level of the technique was probably about the same, but this one was stronger because of its single-point focus.
?Ghhaah! Yo-you can even do something like that!??
The Wight King was damaged by the light magic that had been released through his skill. It seems that we couldn’t defeat an opponent that was resistant to magic so easily. However, because he was on the lookout for the next magic attack, the Wight King’s attention was in front of him.
?Black Thunder Roll?
?Nuoh??
Fran didn’t miss the opportunity. She ran through the path I had created and rushed with the Black Thunder Roll.
?Fuuh!?
?Gha??ha…!?
Immediately after the teleport, she swung me down and cut the Wight King’s body in two.
?For an elite of the Black Skeleton Army, to be defeated… by such a little girl is…!?
?Haaa!?
?Giiaaahh!?
As expected, the Wight King could not dodge the attack from behind, because his focus was elsewhere. We still didn’t know where his magic stone was, but there was no way he could save himself if he was cut in half from the top of his head and then cut into pieces.
?There’s no magic stone??
?Hmm, could it be that he was summoned with necromancy? No, there’s should be no magician who can summon such a high-level undead???
?Master!?
?Oops! I forgot that we’re in a fight now!?
The smoke from the Greater Venom Ghast tried to surround us at once.
?The only thing left is this smoke guy huh… But how to find its magic stone??
?Attack the ground again??
The Wight King was the same, but I still couldn’t find the Ghast’s magic stone. No, I think there’s some sort of focus in its magic power, but I couldn’t trace it back to its source.
However, if I can feel this particular focus, then I can be sure that there is a magic stone nearby. It’s a good idea to use an AOE magic that engulfs the entire area.
As Fran and I were thinking about something, Urushi tried to appeal about something.
?Woof woof!?
?Could it be, that you know where its magic stone is??
?Woof!?
?Then let’s do this!?
?Woooof!?
With a smug look on his face, Urushi bellowed and ran toward the air. With his momentum, he bit into the space in front of him. And then…
?Uuaaaaaa!?
As an eerie scream rose from the space, the smoke cleared at once. We thought the magic stone was in the ground, but it seems to have been hidden in the smoke. Perhaps it was being hidden with some kind of space-time magic ability. However, Urushi’s evolved senses did not miss the magic power of the magic stone. With his Dimensional Fangs, he would be able to attack it no matter what space it was in.
Well, we didn’t get its magic stone though, but we did defeat a troublesome opponent. So, I’ll give him an honest compliment.
?Good job!?
?Woof!?
?Urushi, good boy?
?Woof woof!?
Urushi, who had changed his size into a medium-sized dog was happy to be petted by Fran.
Even so, we’ve gotten a lot stronger. We were able to defeat an opponent that we had struggled with before with only a little bit of strain and minor injuries. We took on two magic beasts with a threat level of B and won.
?Fran-chan, Master, and Urushi. Now I’ve seen it with my own eyes, you guys are really getting stronger!?
?Thank you?
Amanda gave us a thumbs-up as approval when she praised us.
?Yosh, with this, our training is over!?
?Nn!?
?Woof!?
