Chapter 422 - 422: Abandoned Castle Decisive Battle

Even though we should have been tense laughter occurred.

"There's no way you'll cut them. Master's play is intense, and there's choking and whipping too, but all of it is from affection."

Nanao, saying good things. If she thinks that then it's fortunate.

"Anyway, next. Serious injury is of course bad but dying is even more no good. Akie has the power of regeneration, but absolutely no good. Dying to protect comrades or something is no good. If you think it's already impossible return to me. In the end I will take responsibility and protect you all."

Originally the Master does not participate in combat. However in Master-class monster battles that rule is broken. But I was convinced. That means I also become combat power in the battle. Even though the role is Master, the job "Magician" is given. I think there's meaning there.

"Alright, preparations are thorough. Time for the meeting."

Encounters with undead monsters continue one after another as we proceed inside the castle. However against small fry we continue the MP conservation strategy. The monster levels rise and the effectiveness of normal attacks gradually worsens. Among them there were ones with physical attack resistance but in the end we defeated them.

It's fine. Including Nanao no one's breath is rising. With the effect of my skill "Full Energy" fatigue is recovering more and more.

"Simultaneous encounter, it came."

Haruki shouts.

"Finally. Come out, boss."

At this point Mizurii stands by my side. Reliable front-line decreases, but here everyone participates in the battle too.

"Crack Down"

Ikumi-sensei's ability decrease magic with increased power since her level rose and Allocate points were allocated fills the field. With this against simply weak attack power enemies it's 20% off. Against strong monsters it should become about 10% off. Against strong monsters this 10%, 20% is big.

"I found it, right back. It's the throne."

Nanao who crushed "Giant Zombie" on the front line shouted. Since I can't see from my position I ran a little.

That one.

Ominous miasma wrapped around it, truly last boss style.

And the corpses of adventurers rolling at its feet. No, things that were corpses.

Right now that one is holding someone's thigh meat in its mouth and has just pulled out only the bone with a zuru. It's big.

"Excellent Clarity"

Numerous "Giant Zombie" "Corpse Knight." These are strong enemies but here designated as small fry.

And lined up as if protecting the master, seven "Guardian of the Dead." Their level is astonishing Lv77.

Did it stick to 7?

And the boss.

"Draugr" Lv88 Named "Orcus"

I involuntarily shivered. I want to believe it's battle excitement. For the sake of the women who believe in me too.

"Multi Spell"

"Unlimited Power"

"Angel Guard"

"Demon's Luck"

"Swap of Hell"

"Holy Light"

"Wise Man's Nest"

I immediately cut up the ones trying to newly spring out from underground.

How is it, a little surprised?

However the "Draugr" shows no flustered appearance. It takes another leg from its feet and looks at it. The child-like gesture of thinking where to bite is irritating. I'll make it realize that looking down on humans leads to a painful experience.

My reliable women slaughter the "Giant Zombie" and "Corpse Knight" one after another. Unlike the brute force attacks of "Giant Zombie," the attacks of "Corpse Knight" contain speed and killing intent. Of course that has been conveyed to the women.

However Nanao and Gill also start getting wounded unable to completely dodge. When the opponent is high level the activation rate of the "Counter" skill also decreases. And "Counter" does not generate criticals. Shallow wounds are immediately healed on the spot by the power of "Aegis Heal." For slight wounds Akie immediately applies "Heal" or "Healer's Heal." However wounds heal, but the blood that flowed out does not return. Gradually stamina will decrease.

"Ultimate Heal"

Healer Akie's highest level recovery magic wraps Haruki. Best timing, Akie. I'll fuck you later.

Lime's "Gorky of Slime" flattens the last "Corpse Knight."

Reaching here the "Draugr" finally looks this way. It casually throws the leg that became only bone toward us.

"Even though you're humans you're trying hard. If now I'll even make you into fine zombies."

It glances at us and reaches its hand to its feet again.

"Just die, this old man."

I return provocative words. The "Draugr" had the appearance of an old man. Although the surface is dried up like dried fish the body itself is big. The black shining robe looks tattered, but there are stains here and there as if it has absorbed much blood.

"Hmph, it seems you think you handled even a mere 'Revenant' well. Don't think that small fry and I are the same, human."

The "Draugr" says without even looking this way.

"You old man, aren't you senile. Didn't you learn in school that if you look down on humans you'll have a painful experience?"

The "Draugr"'s movements stop.

"Hmph, did you prepare something like 'God Blessed Coffin'? Too bad. I won't fall for provocation."

Was it read? If the demon doesn't charge in there's no effect. That was the weak point of the powerful anti-undead magic "God Blessed Coffin."

And one "Guardian of the Dead" that was standing like its close aide moved sluggishly.

The back of my neck tingles.

"Don't let your guard down."

I shouted involuntarily.

At that moment the body of the "Guardian of the Dead" moved at a speed that made the previous movements seem like a lie. The longsword in its hand is swung toward Nanao. Nanao was caught off guard but her body reacted. She jumps back while guarding with arm and leg. Nanao lands safely without even breaking posture. I'm glad I bought "RR Knee Guard." The attack just now was received at the knee.

"Max Quickness"

Kotori immediately chants the agility enhancement magic. Undead types basically don't move very fast. However it's magic I told them to chant if an exception appeared. Following the order is great. I'll shove my arm in later.

If "Crack Down" or "Swap of Hell" work on the opponent it's fine, but there's also the possibility of magic resistance or resist. However magic applied to allies has effect. "Max Quickness" is used here for that.

"Power for Kill"

"Skill of Arms"

Ikumi-sensei's magic is chanted. The former is physical attack increase and critical rate increase. Compared to my wide-area magic the effect is still thin but even a little is better to raise. The latter improves the way of using weapons. Sharpness increases, and of course critical rate rises. The better the original handling the higher the effect.

If Nanao wasn't equipping weapons there would be no effect, but now it's different. Weapons are equipped on her hands.

Single magic and the effect time is short, but precisely now is the time to use it. Great, Ikumi-sensei. I'll make you a toilet later.

Lime releases "Slime Web" at the "Guardian of the Dead." It dodges the first hit, but Lime was also releasing with the other hand. That hits splendidly. The movements of the "Guardian of the Dead" dull with a gaku. There Nanao and Gill attack. Punched and stabbed, and finally it collapses and becomes ash.

Becoming ash, I saw it for the first time.

"Hmm. It's been a while since I saw my guards defeated. Human, quite interesting. Show me more."

When the "Draugr" says that two "Guardian of the Dead" started moving.

Old man, didn't you learn that revealing combat power little by little is a bad move?

"Absolute Zero"

"Absolute Zero"

Haruki's proxy magic of the newly obtained "SR Magician's Vice."

The "Guardian of the Dead" that jumped in freezes with absolute zero. Nanao kicks those two and makes them into pieces.

"You do well. Indeed I might have been looking down a little. When I set up residence here told by the Demon God I was half in doubt, but it seems that one's words were true."

It's saying something amazing. I want to record it and let the Ten Greats hear it.
