Episode 291 The Birth of a Hero (1)
“…There are still a thousand steps left.”
He whispered softly.
Absolute barrier? No matter how much you shoot, burn and melt, the number of bat colonies is overwhelming? Can we continue to fill and restore? So this struggle is just a meaningless struggle?
okay.
You might think so. So, I guess he smiled confidently like that. But…
‘Actually, there is something you didn’t calculate.’
Sigh.
Rachiel held the fountain pen loosely. Suddenly, I remembered the first time I tested a fountain pen. I didn’t know at the time. If you want to shoot a fountain pen powerfully, you have to put in weak mana. Probably the same goes for that warlock. You’d think this side poured all their mana into it.
So it must be relaxing.
…just like that.
I aimed my fountain pen.
Just like in the area where you shot it earlier. Still with the weakest strength. Take a deep breath. Protecting itself with the cold barrier of the ice cap.
Two hit!
The fountain pen burst into flames. It was like a volcanic eruption. Part of the bat colony that made up the blood-flame beast suddenly evaporated and melted away. A hole several meters deep was opened. It was almost the same depth as before.
Thanks to this, Anansha, who was lurking like a heart inside the blood-flame beast, felt absurd.
“her?”
Heat rushing in in an instant!
Of course he wasn’t embarrassed. It was a blow that had been blocked earlier. This time was no different. As before, the bat colony was controlled. Hundreds of thousands of bats make up the body of the beast. Some of them were moved inside and crowded around him.
Immediately afterwards, the ultra-high temperature ink fired from the fountain pen delivered an indirect impact.
…Kwaang-!
“Tsk!”
I vividly felt the feeling that the bats around me were being cooked alive and dying. But Anansha laughed. Because I’m fine. Because I blocked it again. Even though there was a hole in the animal’s body, it didn’t take any damage, just like before.
“Is the crown prince the type of person obsessed with lingering regrets? Or maybe you have a personality that doesn’t give in easily?”
Anansha raised his head and asked.
A hole in the body of an animal.
Through it, I could see the prince above. The crown prince’s expression hardened as he looked down at him. Of course so. It would have taken even more effort to launch the second flame. For a flame this powerful, the mana consumed would have been enormous.
But the crown prince must be feeling so disappointed because he failed twice.
“Huhu huhuhu! “It would be a waste.”
He looked up at the crown prince and smiled. As if to show off, he controlled the bat colony like before and filled the damaged hole. Recovery was also quick.
‘No matter how hard I try, I can only repair the damaged parts like now. Number of bat colonies consumed? At most, it’s a few thousand.’
So it can easily withstand dozens of hits like this. It can be recovered. However, continuing to attack in the same way is like attacking with the intention of using a bucket to scoop out water from the lake. In other words, it is nothing more than foolish arrogance.
It was a moment when I thought…
Two hit!
Once again, an explosion sounded and tremendous heat and vibration came from outside.
‘uh?’
also?
Anansha felt puzzled.
Are they really going to grab a bucket and scoop out water from the lake? I couldn’t believe it. I wondered if the crown prince was that stupid. But it was real. Both the rushing heat and the shock.
‘her! ‘What a fool!’
He sneered and controlled the bat colony. Now that I’ve been hit by the same attack three times, I’m used to it. Thanks to this, we were able to crowd together the bat colony and block the attack without the slightest panic.
Of course, a hole similar in size to before had been opened, and through it, the crown prince’s face could be seen again.
“I feel like I’m getting attached to seeing your face again and again. Are you sure you haven’t given up yet?”
“….”
The crown prince had no answer.
All I could do was gasp and hold on to my cold shield in the radiant heat that was left behind by the aftereffects of the huge flames being shot out.
Seeing that scene made me laugh even more.
“okay. Try your best.”
Try to attack until you can. And collapse, feeling helpless. In the heart of the empire. In front of everyone. Miserably.
‘And foolishly.’
Anansha repaired the hole again. Honestly, I thought it would be over now. To be more honest, although I laughed at the crown prince with my mouth, I also admired him on the inside. To drill three holes in the body of a blood-flame beast. It was amazing. I wondered how they were hiding such numbers.
‘But that will really be over now.’
It has to be that way.
Using magic with this much power three times in a row? It wasn’t easy for me either. How much worse would the crown prince be? The limit may have already been exceeded. So…
‘Now it’s my turn, crown prince.’
Anansha closed his eyes.
In the meantime, I couldn’t move because I was trying to block the flames and recover from the damage. But now things have changed. The restoration was completed and the prince’s attacks could not continue, so it was time to sweep away the surrounding area.
Coo coo coo coo…!
The blood-flame beast, which had been lying quietly for a while, raised its five heads. No, it was the moment I was about to raise it.
Two hit!
A fountain pen that spits out flames again!
“…!”
what!
Anansha was astonished and hurriedly focused on defense. He also crowded the bat colony, blocked the heat, and came face to face with the prince through a hole of the same size.
Thanks to you, I was able to see it.
“….”
The crown prince is similar to before.
He’s still panting from the aftereffects of the heat and struggling to maintain his cold shield, but he looks extremely exhausted, but… he doesn’t seem to be any more tired than before.
‘The crown prince… he was more toxic than he looked.’
He inwardly stuck out his tongue and filled the hole. I thought, ‘No way’ will flames be launched here again. But he had to keep in mind. There is a proverb of unknown origin that states that when you want to describe something that will definitely happen, you can add the word ‘no way’.
Tukwaahak-!
Flames spraying again!
“…Ugh!”
I blocked it again. Another hole appeared. Another look at the crown prince. But it was the same. He didn’t look any more tired than before.
No, when I thought about it…
‘I think it’s been like that since the first time I shot the flames.’
It was like that.
Looking back, it really was that way.
Finally, Anansha was able to vaguely understand the reason.
‘Could it be that the reason the crown prince is panting like that… is not because he’s exhausted from firing flames and consuming mana… but because he’s basically a weakling?’
The back of my head started to tingle and tingle with realization. On the one hand, he came up with a horrifying speculation. Maybe that flame the crown prince emits requires less mana than expected. I think it’s probably like that.
‘So you can keep shooting like that, right?’
I guess it seems like that.
how?
What’s your secret?
I couldn’t figure it out.
However, one thing was certain. If you don’t fill the hole right now, you will be punished!
‘Ugh!’
Now the sneer has disappeared from Anansha’s mouth. My relaxed mind also disappeared. The admiration you had for the crown prince? It was slowly turning into astonishment. As if to express his feelings, the movements of the bat colony that gathered to fill the hole also became busy.
And, without fail, Rakiel’s fountain pen appears again….
Throwing!
“…!”
It’s real.
It seems like my guess was true.
Anansha’s face distorted.
‘Prince…! In the end, this is what you wanted!’
I finally realized it.
Chicken game. An endless war of attrition. The one who hits and the one who blocks. An endless conflict that will never end until one side collapses from exhaustion first.
The crown prince is fighting that ignorant fight!
‘This is crazy!’
Anansha was furious.
I was caught in a scam.
If I blocked and recovered, I would hit again, and if I blocked, I would hit again, and there was no time to take any other actions in between. This was because the timing when the crown prince fired the flames was so exquisite. escape? counterattack? It seemed like if I tried to do something like that, it would be delayed in filling the hole in my torso.
However, if the prince sprays flames at such a delay…
‘I won’t be able to stop it then.’
It is certainly.
It was a flame of such power that it could only be defended by putting all one’s energy into blocking and recovering without paying attention to other things. So I felt like I was going crazy and going crazy. This was because they were forced into a situation where they were forced to only defend and recover.
‘Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Anansha gritted his teeth and focused only on defense. Rakiel was panting and focused only on the attack.
Two hit!
Of course, it wasn’t easy for Rakiel either.
‘…Hmph!’
Every time I used a fountain pen, I felt out of breath. My whole body felt like it was going to break apart. This was because even with the ice shield of the ice cap, it could not block all the shock and heat of the launch.
Breath?
It was barely possible.
The air was so hot that it felt like my bronchi were going to be cooked. No, in fact, I could gradually feel signs of respiratory burns.
mental?
He was already half comatose.
Because it’s so hot. Trying hard to endure it. In addition, it is because of the aftereffects of overuse of the 8282 mode that has been used continuously since before. The mounting fatigue and depletion of physical strength were holding me back. Honestly, I wanted to collapse right away. I wanted to feel comfortable.
But I can’t.
‘Everyone… is watching.’
I heard my eyes blur.
A grand plaza sealed off with a magic circle.
Countless people trapped here.
Countless people who are suffering from anemia and fainting, looking at us with earnest eyes. Emperor. 2nd prince. Pope and Archbishop. household troops. Special forces. nobles and citizens. Many people whose names I don’t know are only looking at me. My appearance. my fight. I am watching this entire process. I’m cheering for you.
So… I can’t fall even if I want to.
‘I am…’
Throwing!
Sprayed again.
How many times is this?
I already forgot to count.
However, I could feel that the warlock’s defense and recovery were slowly slowing down. Is it because the number of bat colonies has decreased? Or is it because Damien and Sir Roberto realized their intentions and launched an all-out offensive together?
Probably both.
‘Damian…’
The guy is waving his black hair and creating a sword storm. The entire body of the bloody beast is literally being chopped to pieces. The same goes for Javilon. He is going on the offensive as if competing with Damian. So did Sir Roberto, Urus, and the rest.
As everyone is struggling like that, the warlock must be putting more effort into recovery. The number of his bat colonies will decrease faster.
okay. Everyone is doing well.
So me too.
Tukwahak-!
I shot again.
I was out of breath.
Part of my consciousness was blown away.
No, I think my consciousness was almost gone from before. From the time I said something like a thousand rounds and then fired about two more times? Just blank. I feel dizzy.
But we must continue.
why?
Because you have to protect everyone?
Honestly, I don’t think that’s a good idea. I don’t really know why it’s so noble and grandiose.
Just a little.
‘That face is annoying.’
I lowered my gaze.
Another hole drilled.
The face seen below.
The warlock was looking up here. There was no longer a smile on his face. There is only embarrassment, embarrassment, and a sense of disappointment that foresaw the end. He was just struggling, sweating profusely with a pale face.
When I saw that, I felt pity for a moment… I didn’t hear it.
‘Because I am a person who saves people.’
But what about that guy?
It is a germ.
He tried to make countless people sick, put them in pain, and use that to gain profit. No, there is no need to give these reasons…
“Did you laugh at me earlier?”
“That’s it…!”
“The explanation has been given. “In the name of Raquiel Adria Magentano, the Crown Prince and director of the Villa Oriental Medicine Clinic, I recommend treatment and disinfection.”
…Threat attack!
The flame was sprayed with all its might.
Energy depleted to the point of fainting. Therefore, less mana was invested than usual. Therefore, the most powerful heat storm so far occurred.
There was no longer a colony of bats blocking the way. So many people were consumed by the continued attacks that the speed at which the holes were filled was slow, and the defense was quickly breached. Anansha’s wide eyes became bright.
“…!”
I couldn’t even scream.
As soon as I sensed the end, an overwhelming heat storm exceeding thousands of degrees swept Anansha. The whole body was evaporated in one blow. They were dismantled and vaporized on an atom-by-atomic basis. Some atoms were heated to extremely high temperatures and decomposed into plasma, separated into electrons and positively charged ions.
Complete incineration.
Or it was social disinfection.
