Chapter 233.1 - Yamata No Orochi Subjugation Battle IV

???The installation of the magic circle for excavation has been completed!?

A magic circle, about 3 meters in diameter, spread on the flattened ground below us. We weren't writing the formation, we just laid out the readymade one on the ground. I mean, making it from scratch would take a whole lot of time.

So we chose this method, otherwise known as the scroll method.

All we needed was to spread a magic circle that had already been drawn on a huge cloth and spread it on the ground. This was the plan to reduce the time needed to complete the plan as much as possible.

?Is this really going to work??

Said Sakura-chan without even trying to hide her suspicion.

That was because this was the first time I showed her this handmade scroll of mine. Well, like hell I'm going to show my magic item to someone like you. That's like giving free information to your potential enemy.

?He's not bringing it for no reason. This ain't charm.?

The one who guaranteed its effect was none other than Randou-san herself, the one who dug it.

We did numerous experiments with drawing magic circles while building a bunker.

The best magic circle design was the one that glowed in orange light similar to the flash of the muzzle of Randou-san's revolver.

I took a picture of the most ideal magic circle with my smartphone and then copied it on the cloth.

The thing was what kind of magic circle would appear when invoking a spell, its effect, or its meaning?? none of the users was aware of it. And since my ?Hexagram Formation? only worked on curses, I also couldn't understand it either.

But then, I realized that we didn't actually need to make it too powerful, it was enough as long as the spell was strengthened even just a bit.

Thus, after copying the earth magic circle, I used ?Outlaw Decoding? to add various kinds of effects by trial and error?? And somehow completed this earth magic for excavation.

The magic used was intermediate rank defense magic, ?Terra Alma Shield?.

It was the leading candidate spell for construction jobs since that spell was truly a great help when building a bunker. Randou-san's expertise in this magic rose rapidly after she started using it for construction jobs.

This means that using this magic to dig a hole with the assistance of a magic circle would allow her to dig an even deeper hole.

The only problem was the number of shots of this magic that she needed to dig all the way to the shell of Yamata no Orochi.

?Momokawa, I'm ready.?

?Do it, Randou-san.?

????Terra Alma Shield?!?

She pointed her revolver toward the magic circle and started the excavation job.

?OI MOMOKAWA, WE'RE ALSO WORKING ON THIS PART!?

?Roger that, I'll be there in a second.?

After being called by Shimokawa, I looked around for a few seconds and saw that everyone was starting to do their assigned job.

They pasted scrolls on the ceiling and the wall.

But, it wasn't earth magic circle, it was the ?Hexagram? that I was familiar with.

?Rot away in the water of rotten red???Rotten Bog??

Though I used the full aria… The bog didn't appear anywhere else.

It was only natural that the bog didn't appear. It was because I set the bog to appear on the other side of the wall and ceiling instead of on this side.

?Good job Shimokawa-kun.?

?Okay, here we go old pals???Acid Shield??

The spell that I invoked for the scroll that was pasted on the wall by Shimokawa was our commemorative first fusion spell, the ?Acid Shield?.

It was something that I came with during the operation to keep Reina's sacred beast at bay. In the end, it couldn't give significant damage to the sacred beast, but both Water Shield and ?Rotten Bog? were still working just fine.

That's why I thought that this fusion spell might be able to buy us some time against those flock of gargoyles.

?Can you feel the situation??

?They're swarming outside. Those idiots are plunging themselves to death into the bog.?

This seemed to be working wonders against zombie-like gargoyles who could only charge ahead.

Though I knew that Randou-san's ?Terra Rampart Defence? was really tough, nick and chips would appear if it kept receiving non-stop onslaught from the gargoyles. And it might have broken if the big one was attacking it.

Randou-san could fix it, of course,  but now that she was focusing on digging, we shouldn't waste her effort on another job.

Thus, I came up with the plan to create another hindrance on the side of the wall that was facing outside.

?Shimokawa-kun, keep it up.?

?Oh, leave it to me.?

?The others can take a break for the time being.?

?Are you sure??

?This is going to be a long battle after all. We should preserve our magical power and stamina as much as possible while we can.?

So far, everything had gone according to plan.

But I still had no idea whether Yamata no Orochi would really let us drill a hole all the way into their real body, their core. I hope that we can deal with any unexpected situation with our current lineup but… Since the part about this was completely unknown territory, I could only pray that everything would work just fine for us. Please bless us with your divine protection of the curse, Ruinhilde-sama.

?Momokawa, how's the situation on Big Brother's side??

Sakura-chan suddenly asked during our break time.

The only one who knew the situation on Souma-kun and Co's side was me who used my shadow as a communication relay.

Since I knew that everyone was really busy fighting outside, no one would be stupid enough to contact us just because Sakura-chan was worrying about her big brother.

?Yeah, Souma-kun is leading everyone to beat the cr*p of Orochi's head. Well, no need to worry, he's almost unsca??AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! S-SOUMA-KUUUUUUUUUUUN!??

?EH!!? WHAT IS HAPPENING TO Big BROTHER!??

?Everyone is safe and sound, they're taking turns replenishing their body fluids right now.?

?MOMOKAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!?

Cla-Calm down lass, that was a joke to break the tension.

Good grief, this saint is riddled with landmines. Her holy attribute is truly questionable.

?Momokawa, this ain't the time to make that kind of joke.?

Yamada said with a rather dumbfounded face.

?Humph, it's exactly at this kind of moment that we need some jokes to break the tension and regain our composure.?

?I'll be convinced if you're not saying those words while hiding behind Futaba-san.?

I mean look, that bitch Sakura is already knocking an arrow of light on her bow.

Like hell, I could survive if she suddenly went trigger-happy.

?Don't worry Yamada-kun. Protecting Kotaro-un is my job.?

?Please choose your job more carefully.?

Unacceptable, Mei-chan is my guardian deity after all.

Moreover, even if I couldn't see her wonderful bo*bs from behind, her delicious bu*t was showing its majesty before me. It was the huge but* that bounced me up from the collapsing classroom.

?… So, the situation on Ryouko's side??

?Aren't you curious about your BIG BROTHER??

?Enough, just answer my question!?

Sure thing. Well since I'm also curious about the situation on Class Rep's side, let's try to contact her.

Since I didn't have enough power left to create another shadow, I had to use my smartphone to contact her.

The recipient was Takanashi Kotori.

Though I had my doubts about whether she would function properly as a relay personnel, I had no choice since she was the only available personnel during the sealing operation.

I dialed Kotori's number which just got registered the other day with my outdated phone.

Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrrr??

That bitch better not hang up on me.

I should've told her during the training that she had to answer the phone within two rings.
