「…Muh」
Fran frowned as she saw Sierra and Zelos Reed who had just arrived.
However, it was not because of any negative feelings towards Zelos Reed or Sierra. It was simply because she was subconsciously sickened by the evil presence that the two were radiating.
「It’s still alive even after it received that much damage, huh…?」
Looking at the Great Magic Beast that still bore the wounds of Fran’s slash, Sierra muttered with a grim face.
「…Did the Evil God’s control not affect the both of you?」
「Yeah. I’m still fine」
「Me too」
It seemed that after using the Cannibalism Skill of the magic sword, Zelos Reed made him able to absorb the Evil Power of others and convert it into their own power.
The same went for the Zelos Reed of this timeline.
Thanks to that, they seemed to be able to negate the control of the Evil God, which was manifested through the medium of evil energy.
But I don’t think that skill could be relied upon for a long time. After all, I don’t know what might happen if they absorbed more evil energy than what they could handle.
However, it seemed that Sierra and Zelos Reed knew that themselves.
「We’ll launch our attack now. Just being here will increase our power, but I don’t think we can handle it for a long time」
「Me too」
「Okay」
We didn’t know each other’s moves, nor did we have deep trust in each other. Fran and the others exchanged a few words for a few seconds and eventually decided to attack independently.
I’m sure Sierra and Zelos Reed could work together, but I’m not sure if Fran could.
Besides, I wanted to watch how they fought.
『It seems that they’ll go all out from the start. Let’s drop a few gears and look for their weaknesses from a distance』
「Nn」
「Woof」
And as I’d expected, Sierra and Zelos Reed rushed towards the Great Magic Beast with their evil spirits in full force.
But then, a question came to mind… Would they attack it with their evil spirit? Would it work against an opponent who had taken in a piece of the Evil God?
Well, we won’t know until they’ve tried it.
Sierra and Zelos Reed then begin their attack on the Great Magic Beast with an attack that was imbued with their evil spirits. A huge explosion then occurred, their attack managed to blow off countless tentacles into the air.
It seemed that since it was so specialized in its ability to control its opponent, its physical body was not that of a normal creature.
I also tried to unleash my magic from a distance too. I tried all the attributes I had, such as Earth and Water Magic, but the Great Magic Beast didn’t seem to be weak against any of them.
If it wasn’t weak against any attribute, does it have any weak point on any part of its body?
I wondered if it even had any vital points at all…
Leaving the attacking parts to Sierra and Zelos Reed, I continued to observe the Great Magic Beast, cut off its tentacles that tried to reach us, and sometimes I used short-distance teleport to avoid them.
I also observed the flow and concentration of the Great Magic Beast’s magic power. Was there any principle behind its regeneration ability? What about when it launched an attack?
『Hmm?』
「Something’s wrong?」
『Yeah…』
I felt a subtle sense of discomfort. However, neither Fran nor I could detect its origin.
『So in the end, we’ll just have to cut it down by force, huh…?』
「That’s easy to understand」
『Well, but…』
I didn’t miss the fact that Fran’s movements were getting slower. Physically and mentally, she must have accumulated exhaustion that she wasn’t even aware of.
『Fran. Try to regain some strength for now. We’re gonna use it for one final attack later』
「Okay」
As I was pondering where to strike while repelling its tentacles, Fran and Urushi suddenly reacted to something.
They looked up slightly to the sky with a surprised expression on their face.
What they saw were Sierra and Zelos Reed who were about 100 meters above us in the sky.
And the reason why Fran and Urushi were so surprised was probably because of the sudden increase in the amount of evil that the two were releasing. They seemed to be planning to unleash some kind of big attack.
『Let’s get away from here』
「Nn」
「Woof」
In front of us, Sierra and Zelos Reed seemed to be getting ready to unleash an attack. They formed a line with Zelos Reed in front and Sierra at the back. Both of them seemed to be concentrating their evil spirits on themselves.
I didn’t know if this was going to help them, but we unleashed some flashy magic to draw the attention of the Great Magic Beast to us.
Then as I watched, Sierra and Zelos Reed seemed to have completed their preparations.
『That was… an Evil Spear?』
「And what Zelos Reed created was… rings?」
What Sierra had created was a cone-shaped spear of evil spirit. It was a mass of compressed evil energy. I guess he was going to use it to launch an attack
But what the hell is that thing that Zelos Reed created? As Fran said, he had created three black rings that were slightly larger in diameter than the evil spear that Sierra had created.
『Anyway, let’s prepare a barrier』
「Nn!」
I don’t know what kind of attack they were going to make, but I’m sure it was going to be quite powerful. We then further distanced ourselves and put our barrier at full power.
Immediately after that, Sierra made his move.
「Eat this!」
At the same time that Sierra swung down his right hand, the evil spear was shot out with great force, it was as if it had been thrown by an invisible hand.
From our point of view, the speed was a bit of a disappointment though. But was hitting the Great Magic Beast with the evil spirits more important than its speed for them?
But that didn’t seem to be the case.
Zelos Reed then lined the three rings that he had created in the line of fire of the Evil Spirit Spear. And each time the Evil Spirit Spear passed through one of the rings, the Evil Spirit Spear seemed to grow faster.
It seemed that by controlling the flow of evil power on the rings, he was able to accelerate the Evil Spirit Spear that Sierra released at once. I see now, interfering with evil spirits by using evil spirits. This was an attack that only the duo of Sierra and Zelos Reed, who could handle powerful evil spirits, could do.
「So fast!」
The evil spear, which had reached the speed of my telekinetic catapult, penetrated the head of the Great Magic Beast while destroying also its tentacles that were trying to intercept it.
Booom!
『Uwooh?』
Shock waves and strong evil spirits blew even to where we were. I could see the surface of the lake shaking violently as a tidal wave like a tsunami was generated. What a fierce explosion. The compressed evil spirits must have been released all at once.
The Great Magic Beast that took a direct hit from Sierra and Zelos Reed’s combination technique then had an excessively large hole gouged out of its body. The wound was also much larger than my Kanna Kamui.
However――
『――That didn’t do much damage either, huh?』
The wound has then begun to regenerate immediately. I was getting fed up with the Great Magic Beast that could immediately regenerate no matter how much we attacked it.
But even in the midst of all this, we finally see a slight glimmer of hope.
『Its regeneration has begun, but… It’s a little slower now?』
「Nn!」
The regeneration rate was slightly slower than when we first attacked it. I wonder if this was the result of our continued attacks on it? Or was it because of Sierra and Zelos Reed’s attack?
Anyway, if we could find out why, we might be able to overcome the situation.
