Chapter 102: Resurrection
Illuminated by the light of the magic circle, Almira-san′s appearance mysteriously emerges. A purplish black mist floats in the air so as to cover the surroundings. Tyres and Toururi are sandwiching from the left and right. The approaching large axe and numerous weapons collide with the mist and scatter intense sparks. It looks like a sand-iron haze made by magic. It has become a shield and it is preventing attacks on Almira-san. Although they were using weapons, they were firing two consecutive shots, but suddenly retreated at once. At the next moment, the space where Tyres and Toururi were standing is blown off and the blast burns the air.
As those two retire, Yukurishisu plunges into Almira-san from the front. As if to predict the explosion point, she avoided it and closes the distance, but in front of the eyes, there is a mist that gathered as walls. I was thinking whether to thrust as it is, and suddenly split into small shadows before the haze. A black shadow with two wings flies while zigzagging. It is a bat. The bat went round the back of Almira-san and Yukurishisu appears. Mist is gathered in the front, while the back is square and the fangs pierce the back. But this time, Almira\'s appearance is scattered and appears slightly to the right. She hasn\'t been completely intact, because her right shoulder was ripped off. Almira-san shakes her hand and a mass of haze is released towards Yukurishisu. Despite trying to avoid it, Yukurishisu stepped on it as if she couldn\'t cut it away or cross her arms to defend herself. The mist collides against her arms and Yukurishisu\'s body floats in the air. She was pushed away and hit the wall. Despite being strengthened with magical power, her skin is scraped and the meat is exposed.
Because Almira-san is using mist to attack, her defense is thinning. Tyres threw his weapon, while Toururi kicked the ceiling and swung her axe. Almira-san, who defends against the thrown weapon with her mist, parries the axe with the mist as before. However, it seems that she couldn\'t avoid it this time. The axe aiming at her head turned down her left arm from her shoulder. Almira-san releases a black wave on Toururi-san’s belly who swept away with her axe, without minding her cut arm.
“Although it can be reproduced, hurt things hurt you know." Almira
“I agree with that. So, it would be helpful if you don’t resist." Toururi
“ You think so?" Almira
“No, not at all. Just an impulse, forget it.” Toururi
Blowing away the discharged mist, Yukurishisu comes back. The wrist has been scraped off by the mist, but smoke raises to cure it. Almira-san, who had her arm cut off, also got her arm back with a stupid face. As it stuck to the wound, magical power covered the entire arm and got glued in a blink of an eye.
“Battle of Immortals...who will exhaust the energy first? Let\'s compare our patience." Almira
“...... I cannot spare the time." Yukurishisu
C\'mon, not only Yukurishisu but also Almira is an immortal.... I guess it is not everytime, but it is too difficult for me to beat them before they use magic.
“What should we do, older sister." Toururi
“Just because we are immortal, doesn’t mean we are the strongest. If you\'re restrained, you can\'t move, and you\'re powerless if you faint." Yukurishisu
“It\'s easy to attack. No matter how many imperial magicians are there, I’m the best.” Almira
“But if you activate that magic, I lose. Therefore, I have to do something about it." Yukurishisu
...The magic circle installed on the floor of this room is emitting light and you can\'t see anything covering the town. Are they hiding something on top of the magic circle? But still, someone in town will notice....
“I don\'t even know if someone would pass by it...but this is a magician\'s town, and if you draw it, someone will definitely notice it. Even so, no one noticed means that they planted it in a place where no one knows as long as they live normally."
“So, is there a place where no one can enter the town? Maybe it\'s drawn under a building. If you build something underground, nobody will pass."
“I see, it is drawn under the building! Underground waterways, underground waterways!"
It is always in a fairly large town of the empire and it is seldom visits as long as it is normal. Naturally, the size of the town would be the same, so there\'s no shortage of space. Yes, that\'s all I can think of.
“The underground waterway is literally underground, right?” Tsuchio
“Then, I\'ll go flying and break it! Rin, come with me!” Ruu
“No, it is useless. If it is such an important place, they should be defending the entrance intensely. Ruu, you’re exhausted, therefore a breakthrough is difficult. Nichrome, do you know where the circle was drawn?" Tsuchio
“...Yes, it is slight, but there is a magical response. I understand that the magical power is rising just before the triggering, but until quite a while ago..." Nichrome
“It is quite concealed...so, can you pierce the cobblestone from here and break the magic circle of the waterways?" Tsuchio
“It\'s not a difficult thing...I\'ll try" Nichrome
Cracking the window glass, Nichrome comes out on the terrace and aims at the ground far below. Whatever I asked, I can\'t expect too much from Nichrome’s sniper. There is a good distance and it is located further down the stone pavement. The way to surely destroy the magic circle is....
“...If you disrupt the magical powers with magic, can you delay the invocation?” Nichrome
“I don\'t think it will be easy to manipulate. I think that we should consider the possibility of manipulating the magic circle." Tsuchio
“But I\'m sure there\'s only so much I can do. If I can\'t do it, think of the next move. For now, I want to know just where the foundation of the magic circle is." Nichrome
Nichrome put her left hand on the line written at her feet. Then, the flow of magic has been transmitted as an image in her head. A lot of information flows at a stretch and she is attacked by a disgusting feeling like the time of motion sickness.
“Are you alright?” Tsuchio
“Ye, Yes. I don\'t care much about this...after all, is the center here? It descends along the wall of the tower and is connected to the basement as it is. There are places where the magical power is strong and magic circles are created. Perhaps, they will inhale the magical power and life of those who are sacrificed from here." Nichrome
“Then, if you crush here, you can delay the completion of the technique!" Tsuchio
“That\'s right. Six in total...three in the northeast, east and southeast from here and three in the northwest, West, and southwest!” Nichrome
“It\'s just a place with a square. Under it, there might be a large space. However, there are a lot of civilians who were manipulated. It\'s difficult to take aim." Nichrome
“The worst, you can get involved. Now, think about just stopping the magic...accusation, I will receive it." Tsuchio
“If such a thing is told, I can not get involved even more. Please be relieved, I am the strongest mechanical human." Nichrome
“Oh yeah, I ask for a snipe that passes through the eyes of the net." Tsuchio
“As you wish." Nichrome
While Nichrome is trying to sniper the main points of the magical circle, I try to manipulate magical power. If I make the flow crowded, I can delay the invocation of the magic. I also can earn time for Nichrome to aim. Taking control of the magical power flowing through the line, I make it deviate from the path that originally flowed to another way. The part where supply stops and loses its radiance, is a part which is supplied in excess and strengthens the brightness. Yosh, if it keeps flowing like this, then the magic circle will burn out without being able to catch the magical power....
“You thought I would let you do it?" Almira
Almira started an attack at me. The blade that aimed at me is released, but Ruu and Lime defend me with their fists.
“If there is a use for Tsuchio." Ruu
“You need to pass through us first." Lime
“At all, I thought that people who don\'t have any use, can’t take control of the magic circle. You know interesting people, princess.” Almira
“Yes, he is a young man with backbones. Can you afford to take care of your magic circle?” Yukurishisu
Tyres attacks with his weapons from below. Almira-san, who guarded with haze, was blown off and Toururi was already waiting for her. As she swings her axe by swirling, Almira avoided it by using her mist. Almira had many cuts on her skin and big lacerations on her thighs, which immediately regenerated through the mist. She is totally an immortal monster.
“Huu...It was hard to fight with the princess, but even if I join the defense of the magic circle there, it is tough for me as well.” Almira
“The playback speed is falling more than before and the consumption of magic is painful, isn\'t it?” Yukurishisu
“As you guessed." Almira
Well, was that speed falling? Well, when it\'s good, will it be instantaneous?
“Are you going to get caught and be judged or killed by us here? Choose whichever you like." Yukurishisu
“...Well, let\'s end the game soon." Almira
At that moment, Almira-san snaps her finger and the light of the magic circle gets stronger at a stroke. Those that were blushing like fluorescent lights transform into intense light like incandescent light bulbs. At the same time, something like a strong force works on me. I cannot move as if my limbs are poisoned and I kneel on the floor.
“...Wh, What.”
“What did you do to activate the circle? You said it was going to start soon, but that was a red lie. In fact, you were was able to trigger the signal at any time."
“Such a thing...you won\'t have any benefit. Why..."
“No, it\'s profitable. Can you see the hopeless face of the princess?" Almira
Even though the plan might be derailed, does that bother her? No, she was confident that she would succeed even if she fails.
“At last, it is the resurrection of Grannir-sama. Second Prince and Princess, you may well survive if you are lucky, so please pray to heaven at most." Almira
“Don\'t joke around..."
“You see, the magic circle has begun to take life. It\'s not a very rare experience, but please come and enjoy it." Almira
Something shining white emerges from the circle and flies out of the window. It is not something that you can see like blood or magical power. It is more like sucking out soulful things.... In the sense that my soul is stolen, cold sweat flows from my whole body and skin becomes irritated. There is only disgust. I can\'t give a gap to cause nausea and a gap to shed tears.
“This, is bad..."
“Wh, What, this..."
All the people in the place will have their souls sucked into the magical circle. There is no exception for Almira-san either.
“Why would you do that for my older brother..." Yukurishisu
“Grannir-sama is the reason for my existence. There is no worth to be in this world without that person. If it is for him, I will offer him everything of me, even if it is my own soul." Almira-san
As the white glow shines in the air, the magic changes. The head slowly floats in the air and the magic circle which shows up is wrapped. The magic circle which was moving up and down to examine something, moved to the bottom of the head. It rotates in the air under the head and the dwindled oval looks thicker as you go inside. In such a circle, the sparkling particles appeared and formed something. It is directly connected to the severed head. Roughly the size of a 180 cm tall man. A human body was formed.
“Aaa! Finally, he came back! A few years after being killed by that female fox, Grannir-sama finally comes back to this world! Let\'s save it in our memories to convey to future generations! " Almira
Particles are continuously pouring in from the surrounding magic circle. Gradually, the body seems clearer and starts building meat and bones. Large wings on the back and a thick and long tail from the waist can be seen. Yukurishisu would survive, but...we won\'t. Somehow, we must prevent the magic from being completed.
“Nichrome are you okay..." Tsuchio
“In this situation, for the first time I feel that there is a soul to me...if I could, I wanted this opportunity to not come." Nichrome
“If that\'s all you can say, it\'s still okay. Tsuchino, can you coalesce when the numbness weakens?” Tsuchio
『Haa!? Just a little while ago! I\'ve said many times that it\'s not a good choice...』Tsuchino
“I know. Is it okay to be able to use a lot of magic in a moment?” Tsuchio
『...If it\'s really a few seconds, somehow.』Tsuchino
“Don\'t say it is impossible."
『It\'s, Tsuchio...when this commotion is settled, I will decide variously.』Tsuchino
“Roger that.... Nichrome, destroy the part of the circle you are aiming at - now." Tsuchio
Nichrome hardens her position. She would have fallen down because she aimed exactly. The muzzle is outside the window, afterwards she only has to shoot the target. Even though her soul is sucked up, she still can move her fingers. As long as she already aimed, she should be able to break the circle.
“Master is really unreasonable. My machine’s specifications can not only..." Nichrome
“...Is it impossible?" Tsuchio
“...Who said it was unreasonable, I am the strongest machine! I\'ll shoot in three seconds, both be ready.” Nichrome
“Hey, Tsuchino!” Tsuchio
『If only we can do it, we can finish it soon!』Tsuchino
One second, the electrons ran through Nichrome′s eyes and the muzzle shifted slightly. Two seconds, Tsuchino put her hand on my back and we transform. It\'s just a few seconds of transformation, and it doesn\'t take long than the previous experience. 3 seconds, Nichrome pulled the trigger and a roar echoes through the room. Yukurishisu and Almira-san also look here, and the numbness which deprives of the freedom of my extremity fades a little. Okay, let’s move! Immediately putting my left hand on the glowing magic circle, I poured an enormous amount of magic that I was able to use after the transformation into the magic circle at once. It was growing just before the completion of the magic and the magic quickly exceeded the allowable range and I felt the magical circle at hand.
“Nuo!?”
My body is blown away by the shock when the big magic is liberated and I slam into the wall. My belly and right arm were hot and painful, but my eyes were looking at the floor. The function of the magic is stopped by missing the part which was the base. The brilliance of the magic disappeared and the spill of the soul and the numbness stopped. It is too late worry about whether the souls are safe. What happened to that after it was severed?
I shifted my eyes to the center of the room. Even though the magic has already been interrupted and severed, it is still floating. No, it\'s not floating. A body grows from under the head and a figure looks on the ground. That figure has big wings on the back and a thick long tail extending from the waist.
The former emperor, Grannir, has revived.
