Chapter 37: I Used It Again
Chapter 37: I Used It Again
‘Again?’
‘Yuji. Are you sure?’
The slimes seemed worried about me.
However, using ‘Hellfire of Death’ once more here seemed like it would be the most effective way to ensure that we win.
Obviously, I could always just leave these people and run—but I had no intention of doing that.
‘I’m fine. …But I may not be able to use magic and support you anymore. So I want you all to come down from the wall after I use Hellfire of Death, and gather around me.’
‘Okay!’
We’d find out if I would really be alright after I try it.
I still had more than half of my HP left, but there would likely be even more damage to it, now that I would be using magic without MP.
But there was no time to hesitate.
The remaining monsters were already gathering around. If I waited any longer, the temperature around us would drop and the power of the second blast would decrease.
‘Alright, here goes!’
I declared. And then I chanted without waiting for the slimes to reply.
“…Hellfire of Death!”
When I finished chanting, I could feel the MP drain from me all at once, and I grew dizzy.
And then without being able to see the results of the fight, I lost consciousness.
◇
‘Yuji. Are you okay?’
‘He seems to be alive…but he won’t wake up…’
I could hear the voices of the slimes.
Why were they worried about my life…
And then I remembered what had happened.
And so I got up and asked the slimes,
‘How long was I sleeping? What happened to the town?’
I had been unconscious.
I even wondered if I was really alive, and so I checked my status…

Hmm. I was just barely alive then.
My head really hurt. Perhaps I had hit it when I fainted. I could also feel pain all over my body.
‘Uh… You were asleep for about 5 minutes, Yuji!’
‘There are slimes over there too, so you should go and look!’
Apparently, I not been out for that long.
I thought about it as I reactivated ‘Shared Senses.’
It was times like this that I was very thankful that it didn’t use MP.
And then, the sight that I saw was—of a few dozen surviving monsters and the Adventurers who were fighting them.
Everything around the town had been burned down, but the town itself was safe.
It was clear that my help was not needed on the battlefield now.
The rest of the monsters were slaughtered in no time as I watched.
After that, the Adventurers continued to search the area for any monsters they might have missed, but that too did not take long. (Hellfire of Death had flattened the landscape and made it easy to see far away.)
When they were finished searching, the Adventurers left a few people to keep watch and the rest returned to the town… They started looking around.
It was as if they were searching for something.
Then my eyes met one of them.
And then he shouted.
“There’s Yuji! He’s safe!”
…Oh, so they were looking for me.
