Chapter 36
36 An interesting story
A specially large water sphere had struck onto the restrained Kuroinu.
The sphere that raised a large splash together with a thunderous roar, became ripples and rocked the surface of the muddy water.
Youve put up with that rather well, didnt you.
*heave**pant*
Kuroinu, who was supposed to be in the center of it, was safe.
She was considerably blown away from the place she had been standing some time ago, but she had no large injuries upon receiving the impact that could have crushed the human body without remorse.
Levia herself had put quite an amount of power into her skill, so she couldnt hide her surprise about the fact she did not take her down.
(UghI put my
Just before Kuroinu collided with the water sphere, she narrowly invoked an
The skills she specializes in,
For instance, in contrast to the
What is important here is that in contrast to magic where two processes are required, which is producing a spear of fire and shooting said spear,
Looking at this,
However,
That strong point is the fact that when the
If there is fire in your surroundings, it would be possible for her to manipulate that and produce a spear out of it.
And so,the magic shot by your opponentis no exception to that.
Such as manipulating her opponents flames and firing it back, letting the produced water sphere burst above her head, fighting back their lightning by letting them self-destruct; its an ability that demonstrates immense power against magic.
This time, Kuroinu used
Although Levias skill was magic, it was an attack using the sea water ruled by her and as a result, she was unable to manipulate it perfectly and avoiding a direct hit was the best she could do.
After Kuroinu let her body accumulate damage from receiving the impact of the water rivaling that of an explosion despite it not being a direct hit, she somehow managed to stand up, gasping.
Her knees were shaking, but her eyes hadnt lost her vigor.
However, it was still a fact that there was no way in avoiding her current state.
(KuhAt this rate I wont be able to receive the satisfaction in dealing with Shironeko, to say nothing of capturing that man alive in accordance to my lieges commands)
I am a little peeved that you werent killed, but it looks like it is already over.
Turning towards Kuroinu who didnt move after standing up, Levia stuck out her hand.
A fine grain of water can be seen in the palm of that hand and she planned to shoot that to her heart.
I am sorry to tell you this, but I wont be doing something like not robbing someone of their life like Setsu does. So properlydie okay?
Drops of water rushed out, focusing on a single point.
Kuroinu slowly looked at those drops flying at high speed, like it was in slow motion.
(I have been defeated havent II can truly not move my body)
It was already too late for
Without trying anything, she looked at the water bullets being sucked up into her chest.
Hey hey hey, dont you get done in, you dog girl.
Wha-
Kuroinu raised her voice in surprise.
When she thought she had heard someone suddenly calling out to her, the water bullets approaching until in front of her eyes were knocked down to the surface of the sea.
Before they noticed, the owner of the voice had stood between the two, carrying a two meter long spear in his flank.
Youwhy?
Heh, been a little while, oh great Sea god.
Levia was surprised. That man called out to her like he knew her.
Which wasnt surprising since, although he wasnt well known to Levia, he was a man who was at the very least an acquaintance to her.
I seewe were deceived, werent we.
Oh, please dont call it something disgraceful like being deceived. I told ya the story out of kindness, ya know? You were able to save the two cat sisters thanks to that, am I right? And besides, Ive only let ya stay in theinnafter all.
The owner of the innthat man who had offered information to Setsu and Levia, was now standing in her way.
Due to him showing a bold smile, it made his uncanniness look better.
So, does that mean you also came here aiming for Shironeko and her sisters life? Depending on your answer, I shall submerge you as well, do you understand?
Ooh, scary! If the Sea god says it, then it wont just become wordplay, huhWell, dont worry about that, my objective aint those cats.
What then?
Ya should have become aware of it a little right? Its you, Sea god Levia.
Upon hearing her own name Levia increased her wariness and glared at the man in silence.
Ya seems to have seriously guessed it, seeing that ya aint surprisedWell, kind of obvious if ya understand yer own value.
How much do you know?
Dont have the obligations to tell ya butI know as far as how to useyourexistences.
Said the man, still showing a bold smile.
Levia glared at him and bit on her molars from seeing the bad situation.
Well thenlets have ya come with us if ya dont wanna get any painful experience
Thats an interesting conversation youre having. Let me in on it, will you?
!?
The instant the man stepped forward to take Levia with him, a large splash of water rose up along with a black flash.
The man who instantly leapt away with a backstep succeeded in avoiding a direct hit of that something, but he took the splash of water with his whole body and his field of vision was blocked.
Oh Cra
Take this!
A black ray that cut off the soaring sprays of water cut up the mans body in surprise and made the splash red. He distorted his face in pain, but he took distance with another big backstep before the follow-up came.
Tchalready done with her treatment?
Yeah, thanks to you
Who stood there when all of the splashes fell down, was Setsu who was supposed to have gone to treat Mineko just some time ago.
Blood was streaming from the stomach of the guy who was the innkeeper.
I planned to cut at it a little deeper, but his physical ability was better than I expected.
He did get some damage, but he looks far from being incapable of fighting I guess.
So you really were allies to those black robes, I couldnt help thinking it was suspicious you know.
What was that? You want to say you were on guard since the beginning?
Yeah. Because your lines were simply suspicious.
At any rate, Shironeko wont be able to taste freedom as long as shes threatened by her
The time we were listening to your story, we shouldve been talking about this unknown black robe and despite that you pointed outhergender to me. Of course you probably have checked her gender under some circumstances, but it was reason enough to be suspicious of you.
To put it simply, its like that information only the offender can know thing from detective dramas and stories.
Talking too much so as to not make them turn doubtful eyes on you and unintentionally
To think he killed him by striking his head
ending up digging his grave with something like that, something like that I think.
Hah haaso its like that. That was my badI shouldve been a little more careful with my talk. But what about it? Even if ya got cautious, ya let me get near ya didnt ya?
Its got nothing to do with that. Either way Im smashing you here. Whatever happened, the result will be the same, you know.
I swing Kuromaru two to three times and set it up in suspension with one hand.
I confirm that Kuroinu who got her stamina shaved off cant move anymore and point the tip of my sword towards the man.
Well thencome here
This instance, in this instance I thrust the large sword Kuromaru and the man releases an attack, putting his weight on the spear
