Ch 132.2
Translator: Jiro Editor: Ryunakama
「Sellie is finally down!!」 said the announcer. Currently Silverie had fallen on the ground with only her coat covering her mostly bare figure.
Yera closely went up and squatted next to the unconscious Silverie, as she tried to lift up Silverie’s cracked mask with her hand.
「I’ll have you show me that face of yours.」
In order to remove Silverie’s mask, Yera put more power into her hand.
This is bad, if she removes it Silverie’s identity will be revealed.
The Five Heavenly Mages are connected to the Dispatch Magicians. Furthermore, Silverie can’t currently move…!
「… Milly let’s go.」
「Huh?」
I uncovered Milly’s eyes and cast Time Square.
While time was stopped I cast Red Wave and Blue Wave. Double Spell Synthesis: Burst Wave.
A loud sound rang out and a white smoke covered the spectator seats.
The Spell Synthesis of the Red and Blue Systems created a huge cloud of dust.
While the surroundings were left in panic I grabbed Milly and rushed towards the isolated space.
「We’re taking Silverie and running.」
「W-What are you doing?!」
「I’m leaving it to you to distract them.」
「Z-Zeph?! Good grief…!!」
I didn’t have time to bother with Milly.
I rushed inside the isolated space and grabbed the unconscious Silverie.
Silverie’s clothes were ripped apart, and some bruises were visible on her skin.
… You had a tough battle didn’t you. Good job Silverie.
「Zeph! W-what is the meaning of this?!」
「I’m sorry but it will be troublesome if you found out who she is. So I’ll be taking her with me!」 I said with a smile as I launched my ready to boil magic power towards the confused Yera.
It seems like even I am excited to face her huh.
When I was the owner of the Flame of Flame title, it was forbidden for the Five Heavenly Mages to fight amongst each other.
That was because apparently there had been a case in which two of the Heavenly Mages had fought in order to test themselves, but due to getting way too heated up it had escalated into a fight to kill each other. The question has been bothering me all this time.
The question of what would happen when two Heavenly Mages fought each other.
As soon as I headed towards her, Yera seemed to have understood what my intention was.
「…Oh? Zeph, you…」
As if she was affected by my burning desire to fight, Yera’s expression changed as she revealed a smile.
She fell for it. Still it will be hard for even me to fight while holding on to Silverie. Guess I’ll entrust Silverie to Milly.
「Milly, go!」
「O-Okay!」
Milly tried to run away while holding on to Silverie. In order to protect both of them I stood in front of Yera to block her.
It will probably ruin Yera’s image if she let someone disrupt her battle and get away with it. She won’t be able to turn a blind eye to me. Although she’s exhausted due to her battle with Silverie, her level is still quite higher than mine. With the way I am now it will be pretty hard. If I get hit once it’s game over, so I need to fight properly.
「Ugh… Up you go Silverie.」
Milly’s tired voice of picking up Silverie acted as the signal.
Yera immediately raised her hand in a fluid motion. And from within her long sleeve a magic light could be seen.
Her target was Milly. She was definitely aiming for Milly, now that she was full of openings due to carrying Silverie.
Like I’ll let you.
I immediately cast Red Shot, aiming at Yera’s hand.
「Wow?!」 Yera let out a surprised voice as the spell that shot off from her hand only grazed Milly’s cheek, passing through her.
Just now I had shot a spell before Yera’s attack in order to change its trajectory.
Yera’s spell continued forwards until it collided with the isolated space’s wall and disappeared. The spell that she had used now was probably Black Shot.
I immediately dashed towards Yera while casting Time Square. However, even before I could do that I was pushed back by a violent wind.
Ugh… So this is the wind that caused Silverie trouble… It really is troublesome. For now, I managed to let Milly escape, but she really isn’t someone that I can win against by using ordinary methods.
While having my balance ruined I managed to cast a Red Bullet at Yera, however she easily blocked it with a spell of her own.
To top it off she even followed with another spell right after that. While still staying far away from me she cast Black Bullet.
Faced with the rain of magic bullets I cast Time Square.
While time was stopped I cast While Wall twice.
Double Spell Synthesis: Double White Wall.
Even though White Wall was a Primary spell, as long as I was cast twice it was strong enough to withstand even an Intermediate spell.
The rain of magic bullets fell on to the white wall created from magic power that appeared before me.
Thunderous sounds rang out as cracks appeared on the wall. It was a matter of time before the wall shattered.
Damn it. I want to counter-attack but she’s just faster. I guess it really is hard to land a powerful skill without the necessary preparations. I want to hit her with a Synthesised spell but Yera’s magic detection ability is anything but normal. She was even able to sense the non-combat spell Scout Scope, and she also managed to dodge all of the spells the Silverie cast from afar. And even if I’m able to land anything it probably won’t do much considering she withstood so many of Silverie’s Black Thunders. I don’t think it will affect her that much even if she suffers once or twice from mental damage either.
「Nonetheless, I still have something I can do…」
「Huh?!」
I cast Blue Wall right next to Yera, and a wall of ice appeared.
And in order to sandwich her I immediately created one more.
「Hurry up and show me what you’re planning!!」
It seemed like she was able to figure out that I was planning something.
She then cleared the surrounding smoke that had been created by her magic bullets just now.
Damn, I was planning on hiding myself within the smoke, but I guess that won’t work now.
Just as my eyes met hers I immediately cast Blue Wall and cut off her sight.
With this I had managed to block Yera with Blue Wall.
「What do you think this thing will be able to do to me?!」
Blue Wall was a spell that created a wall of ice.
It was tough enough to block monsters, however it was easily destroyed by Red System spells.
But that doesn’t matter…!
Behind the ice walls I noticed that Yera was beginning to gather magic power in her hand.
She was preparing to cast Red Crash. Just as I had planned, she was thinking of melting the ice walls with a Red System spell.
Too bad, that’s exactly what I aimed for.
I had ran towards Yera just as the ice wall had appeared.
And now I was in front of the ice wall. I melted the wall with Red Ball and behind it I saw Yera as she was about to cast Red Crash any moment now.
「W-Wha…?!!」
「Just as I predicted.」 I said with a smile and put my hand up against Yera’s.
I coordinated with Yera’s Red Crash and cast Blue Crash.
Double Spell Synthesis: Burst Crash.
A huge explosion occurred and both me and Yera were blown off, colliding with the wall.
My magic detection ability wasn’t as good as Yera’s, but as long it was a spell from the Red System even I could figure out the timing of when it would go off.
After all, I didn’t receive the title Flame of Flame for nothing.
Burst Crash was a powerful spell, which spell’s explosion even caused me damage.
Moreover, this spell was created by two Heavenly Mages.
The impact of the spell was tremendous and Yera had fainted after colliding with the wall.
The damage caused by spells was reduced by the isolated space, however even the isolated space couldn’t do anything about colliding with walls.
I had used Safe Protection and there was more space between me and the wall behind me so I was fine.
「I guess I’ll use one more spell just in case.」
I took out a potion from my bag and drank it, after which I turned towards Yera and cast Black Zero.
The impact was tremendous and the shock wave from the spell even reached me.
Phew, that should do it. Oh! I shouldn’t waste this chance to get a look at her with Scout Scope.
Yera Schugel
Level 99
Magic Level:
Red: 10/10
Blue: 32/80
Green: 45/91
Sky: 99/99
Soul 22/88
Magic Power Level 1325/11231
Hm… Looking closely she still has Magic Power left. What a monster… For starters, that magic power is ridiculous. I guess it must be because of her elf heritage. On the other hand, her potential for the Red System is quite low.
「I don’t have the time for this.」
Outside the isolated space, the smoke in the venue was already beginning to clear.
It’ll be bad if they see me. I’d better get out fast.
