To Deprive a Deprived Person Chapter 230

TDADP chapter 230: Higher Rank
Nina's body blends into the magic thread that leads to Jozu. Nina, who moved in front of Jozu's eyes with the unique skill 『Magic - Earth』, slashes at the intersection with her two daggers faster than blinking. However, Jozu easily accepts the attack that was released from instant movement with two daggers. Nina's two daggers made from black dragon's claws and fangs are received by Jozu´s two daggers, are made of products obtained in the A-rank Labyrinth 『Rakshasa Nest』 by getting sky hawk nails and earth wolf fangs. It is a work that never compares to Nina's products.
「What do you mean with this?」
In the midst of an antagonizing conflict, Jozu asks.
「Precisely....... .Jozu-san's story to Lena and the others, there are people you called houseguests, right? Then is it something wrong to kill Jozu-san and go to the reinforcement?」
Nina tilts her head mysteriously. She is not joking. Nina is very serious about it. Jozu is naturally afraid of the strangeness and the fear that is different from when confronting a mighty monster.
「What are you thinking――!!?」
Suddenly, Nina's upper body falls backwards. Jozu wasn't overwhelmed by the fierce clash. He fell down on his own. While raising a dust cloud, Nina released a kick to the lower abdomen of Jozu who has his balance broken. It is a kick with full power to a man's critical point where severe pain runs even if it is lightly hit. If it hits, it will be very painful.
「Tsk」
It was Jozu who twisted his body to dodge the kick, but when Nina's leg, which was swung up high in the heavens, stopped, it was swung down like a guillotine. When it is thought that the fall was decided on Jozu's face――Jozu disappeared. Not a metaphor. When Nina looked around, Jozu was seen 10 meters away.
「You can't beat me. It's not too late, so let's cooperate」
「Sor～ry」
No need to ask questions. Nina activates 『Magic Earth』 without listening to Jozu's words. When she dives into Jozu's bosom in an instant, she releases the dagger technique 『Jet Blow』 with her two daggers. 『Fighting spirit』 will be sprayed backwards and the speed of the thrust that will be released will not even be noticeable by ordinary people.
「It's useless」
Jozu was moving away as if he had disappeared again.
"The magic word you use when activating your unique skill. It seems like a habit, but it's really different. In rare cases, there are some unique skills that can't be cast or destroyed when activated, but yours needs to chant the magic word. No matter how fast it is, it's not hard for me as long as I know what's going on. Come on, this is it――"
Around Nina, a grid-like magic thread is stretched around the ground. Previously, it was a technique that applied 『Magic Earth』 that used the 12th death person 『Treason Goria』 as the opponent. Contrary to Nina, who ran through the grid-like magic thread at high speed, Jozu did not make a slight movement but only his eyes followed the flow of magic. Nina, who appeared from behind Jozu, activates the dagger technique 『Twisting two dagger circling - Gou』. Jozu bends and avoids Nina's attack, who turns her body like a tornado and slashes. But Nina's right wrist and the belt on her waist are light steel wires that are so thin that you can't see them. If it is caught in the neck, even the thick neck of a large big boar can be cut.
「Do you think you can get me with such a trick even though we have the same scouting profession?」
Jozu cuts the steel thread with his sky hawk claw-like dagger. Then, Nina's favorite, that holds the magical thread in her left hand, is cut off by the earth wolf fang.
「Shit!」
Nina jumps back greatly and throws a throwing knife. The aim is the shadow of Jozu's feet. A spear grows from Jozu´s shadow. Nina's shadow technique 『Shadow Spear』 made it appear as if the shadow spear had penetrated Jozu´s shadow.
「Dagger technique thorn flash, it's a technique with the same name 『Lightning Speed』, as the spear technique 『Lightning Spear』 and the sword technique 『Lightning Sword』. It's a big increase in sword speed and the speed of the fist only the moment you activate the invocation」
『Shadow Spear』, which is triggered by Jozu's shadow one after another, surely penetrates Jozu's abdomen, upper arm, and shoulders, but Jozu is walking in a resolute manner.
「Mine is not a technique. I have a unique 『Lightning speed』 skill. Once activated, as the name suggests, I can move with a speed that is as if I was wind or lightning」
「You're so proud of your speed!」
Nina puts her throwing knives from her item pouch between her fingers.
「I wonder if you can still do this!」
The moment she let go of dozens of throwing knives――
「You know this? Why did you bother describing my skills? A C-rank adventurer couldn't win against me」
At the same time Nina released her throwing knives, Jozu stood behind Nina.
-------------------------
Going north from Comer city, the road gradually narrows and grows as if the mountains and forests are asserting themselves. A little off the road and about 10 kilometers away, there is a place where huge creatures form a basin as if they were swallowing mountains and forests. In the basin, there was Lena who was guided by the bird golem.
「......I won't cooperate」
After listening to Lena's response, one of Muss´s proud house guests, a man who sits on raised soil, stands up, its 『None-vanguard Ranpou』.
「You won't cooperate?」
「......I was looking for people who had put a lot of trouble on 『Nameless』. If you're different, there's nothing I can do about it」
Magic threads extend from the fingertips of both hands of Ranpou to the ground.
「There is nothing you can do about it? Stupid. You 'll be silent like a fool. I'll decide if I have something to do with it」
Although the pressure from Ranpou is increasing, Lena hasn't been fighting monsters over and over again without a reason. She was taking it head-on without succumbing to the pressure.
「......If Yuu has a request, Muss should go directly」
「What are you misunderstanding. I've been thinking since you came here alone, but do you think you're strong?」
Ten golems crawl out of the ground. It's not a rough creation. Hundreds of frameworks, like humans, are fleshed out with earth and the armor is reminiscent of a knight, with a fine decoration.
「On top of all that, you didn't call Muss-sama with honorifics――I will kill you」
Ranpou's voice was not violent, but the anger contained in that voice was immeasurable.
「......I'm strong. I'm a genius magician and someday I´ll be a great sage」
「Ouou, yes yes. Then let me tell you」
Lena sets up her cane. When she looked at Ranpou's equipment, Lena didn't seem to think of him as a rearguard, although he didn't have a robe on his slim figure, he has a cane that was essential for a rearguard. Above all, the magic powers of his body were enormous. Lena was the first to hit. In order to measure her opponent's ability, she releases the 4th rank black magic 『Explosion』. The earth explodes and blasts and dirt drift around.
「Why is your current attack underestimating me? You think you're the underdog and you're going to test me?」
The golem's arms pop out so as to push away the dirt and appear as it is scraped. Although it was a tryout, the golem made of earth was intact, despite having received Lena's 『Explosion』.
「......!!?」
「You can't make fun of the earth, can you? If you strengthen it with earth spirits and my magic, it will be like this」
Ranpou moves his fingertips smoothly. From the finger that can be seen from the tip of the thimble glove, a magic thread is connected to the golem and when it forms a formation in response to the movement, the golem attacks Lena. A golem with a lance shoots out. Lena had a way to escape to the sky on her Mithril broom, but when she looked behind Ranpou, a new golem with a bow was created. Therefore, the barrier is rotated at high speed and the lance is received. Based on the experience of having her barrier destroyed yesterday, Lena added wind attributes to the barrier she was wearing to enhance the speed of rotation. When the barrier and the lance come into contact, a crushing sound that doesn't seem to be made of earth spear reverberates. Despite frighteningly repelling the lance, the golem did not lose its posture and even the lance tip isn't broken.
「Hoo, why do you use a strange barrier even though you´re a small fish?」
The attitude that allowed him to spare was probably a problem. Lena drew dozens of 『Explosion』 and 『Thunder lance』, which fell on Ranpou as if they were raining down on him
「......I am not a small fish」
As expected, Ranpou will not be harmed, but Lena waits for the explosion to clear up while maintaining her barrier.
「Hey hey. Is this the power of the genius magician you say you are by destroying the earth in vain for a while? If that's the case, then you're a small fish」
An iron rope was stretched around Ranpou like a lightning rod. All the power of 『Thunder Lance』 was released to the earth and 『Explosion』 was caught by the shield of an iron golem that was created sometime ago.
「You won't die, right?」
A blue-greenish mythril golem pops out from between the iron golems. It pulled its right arm back as if it was pulling a bow as it was and released a fist. Even if it is a Mithril golem, its form will change indefinitely depending on Ranpou's imagination. The mythril golem's arm was not shaped like a person. It was conical like a drill and rotated at high speed around the elbow joint. Lena's decision was fast. As soon as the mythril golem is not overlooked, the 5th rank black magic 『Iron Wall』 is developed. An iron wall, 2 meters high, 6 meters wide, and 50 cm thick, stands in front of the mithril golem. But――the mithril golem smashes through the iron wall as if it were paper. Lena puts magic power on the barrier and further increases the rotational power of the barrier. The moment the mithril golem drill arm and Lena's barrier come into contact, the magic power that makes up the barriere is scattered like a spark, with a deafening sound. Lena rebuilds the barrier from the side where the barrier is scraped, but the mithril golem´s drill arm scrapes the barrier at a faster rate.
「......Ah」
It was at the same time that Lena's little voice and barrier were penetrated. The Mildo cane protects her body, but as the Mildo cane breaks, the drilling arm cave into Lena's right chest.
「......Kahaa」
Thanks to her mithril robe, the drill arm did not penetrate her body, but Lena, whose right lung was crushed, crouched and vomited blood. A bright vermilion stain spreads on the ground.
「Look at it! This is what it is. What is your ability?」
Lena was unknowingly shivering at the sight of Ranpou looking down on herself.
----------------------------------
「I was waiting」
On the plain a few kilometers away from Comer city's south gate, Marifa was greeted by a dwarf girl who jumped out.
「I´m sorry for doing that」
Marifa, who has Koro and Ran to her left and right, never thought that the words were bad.
「Nice to meet you, I'm Muss-sama's house guest and my name is――」
「I know. One of Count Muss´s house guests 『Doctor Puriri』」
「Waa, Wawaa, surprised. I know that I became famous. But I'm not impressed with this」
While saying that, Puriri picks some flowers from the flowers.
「Danchera, Undamokoasekao and Salvianon are all hallucinating poisonous flowers. If you inhale the gas emitted from the pollen and flowers. If it weren't for me, it would have been a lot of trouble」
Puriri smells on the dangerous poison flowers closely on her nose as if she is loving them. The spirit magic plant that Marifa released without notice is not working at all.
「We are of equal status in this regard」
Each time Marifa moves her hand, Koro and Ran change their position. Trying to avoid something dangerous.
「Ahaha. Did you notice it? It's funny. It's supposed to be colorless and odorless......ah, it's the power of that eye. It's definitely the magic eye of the goblin queen operated by a magic eye shop for sure. How do you see with that magic eye? I'm curious. I want to experiment」
The colorless and odorless poison that leaks from Puriri´s specially made poison installed on the windward is carried by the wind and unfortunately all the creatures that lived on the two-kilometer path from this place were stopped from their activities.
「But I didn't mean to kill you? This is true. The effect of my poison is that it takes away the freedom of the whole body, but if you were a weak person, it would stop the function of the organs」
While shrugging her shoulders, Puriri pulls her tongue out. The cute gesture emphasized the fear of Puriri.
「You aren't going to kill me? is that so?」
Marifa activates the 1st Rank spirit magic 『Gale』. Puriri's special poison that takes away the freedom of the body by the strong wind is scattered away.
「Are you suspicious? Really――」
Suddenly, one of the slave maid apprentices, the tiger girl Melanie appears suddenly in Puriri´s bosom. A claw is fitted in the hand and it penetrates the abdomen of Puriri as it is.
「――What? That......this is a illusion――」
Puriri was trying to grab Melanie, but quickly jumped backwards. And more――
「Achooo!」
With huge gloves in both hands, Tin punches Puriri's side.
「It's a punch with master´s direct message. It'll end up reverberating to the core of your body, even if you don't prevent it?」
Puriri's whole body trembles like a wave and blood squirts from her eyes, nose, mouth and ears.
「It......It's a hallucination, gebuu. It......it doesn't seem like that」
「It's bewitching magic. I thought you would definitely see through it as you used hallucinating plants first. As expected, you were caught off guard when I saw through your poison flowers」
Melanie and Tin, who were hiding by the bewitching magic of Pokori and Ariane, were waiting until they had a chance to attack Puriri. The plan was successful and fatal injured Puriri.
「If Master and Count Muss are to fight, you must be the first to disappear. Your presence, who is familiar with all kinds of medicines and poisons among the house guests, is better at fighting against an army than an individual. Your presence attacking with a compliment is very troublesome」
「Th, That's so. Cough. That's what I do. It, It's cruel that you didn't come alone as written in the letter」
Even though it should have been fatal, Puriri's wound was closing. It was regenerating at a terrible speed and the wound was almost recovered.
「Older sister, what the hell is that!!?」
「Mou, its too much trouble!」
「It doesn't seem to be recovering with potions or magic」
Due to Puriri's unusual resilience, Marifa and the others were unable to move. Puriri who has recovered completely sees Marifa. She is not jealous. She is observing as if she is looking at an experimental animal.
「Mou, I'm angry!」
Puriri takes out a syringe from her item pouch. She stabs it in her neck and poisonous purple liquid is poured from her neck into her body. As a result, the blood vessels in her eyes are visibly pulsating and swelling.
「It's a muscle-boosting muscle doping. There used to be a muscle idiot called Gajin long ago, but who is better than me?」
As soon as the earth explodes, Puriri's appearance disappears.
「Tsk. Don't think it's easy to catch up!」
The aim is Melanie. Although her visual acuity is slight, she captures the movement of Puriri and tries to get away.
「Too late」
「Naa!? Th, This――」
Melanie took the back behind and increased the speed further, but Puriri follows perfectly as if laughing at her figure.
「This is a return in the past」
Puriri shakes her fist lightly. Even if it is modest, it is the same manner as an amateur.
「Goee......」
Melanie, who protected herself against Puriri's fist with a cross, has her arms get broken, her chest collapsed and she was blown away.
「Arara. I wanted to hit her lightly」
「You, your personality is bad!」
「Are you next?」
Tin fires a fist in a huge glove. Puriri accepts it.
「Gahaa....... Your attack is awkward」
Tin´s attack that destroys the inside will make damage, even though it is a super-strengthened muscled Puriri. When she licks the blood flowing from her mouth, Puriri gently strokes Tin's cheek with her fingertips. A scarlet red line appears on Tin's cheek.
「I don't think you can beat me with such an attack――」
As it was, Tin turned into a stone statue.
「Basilisk, a poison that I extracted from a cockatrice. It can't be cured with detoxification potions and detoxification magic. Hu, Huhu. At first I experimented with insects, but when I realized, I started to dissect animals and people and monsters were also targeted. When I noticed, I was able to freely mix my favorite medicines and poisons from my body and the wounds I had just healed were immediately recovered because I gained a regenerative ability that far exceeded that of ordinary people in experiments」
Marifa does not take her eyes off Puriri who happily talks about her bad habits.
「Mu, Mumumu? This is rude. That's my bad habit. When it comes to what I like, I talk fluently. But you don't? You tried to kill me, so you can't complain if I kill you, can you? Ah, but they told me not to kill you. What do you want me to do? I want to dissect, I want to experiment. At the end of the day, you cry out and ask for help. I also want to dissect your demon flame wolf and golden cloud leopard alive, so please don't resist too much, okay?」
----------------------------------
Comer city's main street. At the same time as Nina and the others were fighting in various places, a giant man was walking along the street where many people come and go. The people couldn't help but look back when they passed him. A number of wounds were engraved on the whole body of the man and the appearance and air he was wearing showed that the man was not a deaf. Everyone could imagined that something was going to happen in the back of the giant man entering the Adventurer's Guild with a swordsman's air hanging around him.
