I put strength into the hand gripping the Divine Sword. I looked around and—–
“——Do it, Aya.”
“Yes.”
The moment she stabbed her staff in the ground, a scarlet magic circle appeared.
With the Ogre at its centre, it even covered all the surrounding adventurers as well; it was that big. To activate such a large scale magic, it would take numerous Elite magicians even of the royal knight’s order not to mention the time taken for preparation. There was no magician like Aya who could use it instantly and by herself.
Reversely speaking, even those who didn’t know that Aya could use it would be convinced thinking that if its one the GodSlayers, they can do it.
Seeing the magic activate, the adventurers raised voices of surprise and bewilderment.
[Hurry and run. Or you’ll get dragged into it.]
At the same time, Ermenhilde sent her [voice] into everyone’s head.
Adventurers who didn’t understand the situation started to look around thinking that a magician was using a spell. I could only sigh at that.
[I’m saying, if you don’t want to get dragged into a fight of GodSlayers, hurry up and run away!]
Once again, Ermenhilde used her [voice].
And this time finally, the adventurers started to retreat outside of Aya’s magic circle.
“Now then,”
“—–let’s go on a rampage as usual.”
At the same time as Aya pulled out her staff, the magic circle began to shine even more brightly. The shining light seemed very sacred and the black Ogre stood out inside of it.
“Do you even know how much I was looking forward to today?”(aya)
Saying that, the magical energy inside the circle came together.
The aim was not the Ogre, it was to take down the most troublesome Demon first.
There’s a chance he might run away the moment we defeat the Ogre, they’re clever like that. And he might also use the surrounding adventurers as shield as well.
It was a fact after all that the black Ogre was purposefully creating a situation to make the adventurers believe that they could fight as well.
That’s why first of all, we need to get those adventurers to move away from here. Nect, deploy the magic circle on the ground to make it believe that our aim was the Ogre.
“Fall down already.”
Speaking with a heavy voice filled with killing intent, the next moment, the Demon was being cautious of the magic from the ground fell from the sky.
What she had controlled was gravity. The magic circle was for preparation.
In the first place, using a magic that could be recognised was always a last resort. It was one thing if it was the time when we had started our journey when she wasn’t used to using magic but right now, Aya could have beat the demon even without the use of the magic circle.
At the same time, I also ran towards the Ogre.
With 5 of the covenants clear, my physical abilities were at an extreme and I covered 20m in a single breath.
Souichi once again slashed at the Ogre’s legs. Once again, only sparks flew.
At the same time, I cut at its other leg. Here, there was no resistance and I cut its leg away from the ankle.
It raised a scream and the Ogre fell down as it lost its one leg.
It tried to support itself with its 2 arms but the moment its arms were about to touch the ground, the earth in that area alone disappeared. Aya had dug a hole with magic. Both its arms buried into the ground and with a heavy *zuun* sound, it struck the earth face first.
“fuu.”
The Demon was lying on the ground crushed by gravity and the Ogre was buried in the earth with one leg cut off.
Now that both had become unable to fight any longer, I breathed a sigh.
Just like that, I first cut off the Ogre’s head. The Divine Sword cut through its neck with no resistance and the head rolled away.
“Can I retire already?”
[It seems like it’ll get more troublesome later on though, can you act like you don’t notice what’s happening all the time?]
“…….Tch.”
Dropping my shoulders, I clicked my tongue.
Sorry, Rob. Roberiano. This is the most I can do.
