It's Sudden, but I Came to Another World! But I Hope to Live Safely Chapter 275

Are you okay?

"Somehow. ......

Before I could shout, Ecdysius had secured himself with his chains. By keeping it in sight, I was able to protect him as quickly as possible.

I had heard about Rahite's wide-ranging magic along the way, and although I hadn't been told that it would be on this scale, I could have predicted it.

The Iliad's sword was embedded with a magic seal stone, or perhaps the crystal was slow to form around the Iliad.

"That's part of it, but I guess you can't generate crystals from a place where other people's magic is flowing.

Once a crystal is generated, it cannot be generated again. I held him in my bosom and slashed at the crystal without hesitation, minimizing the damage.

"Are you going to generate enough crystals to fill the entire space? ....... I'm not sure what to make of this.

"Rahite can use resurrection magic to instantly return to a healthy body. Then he can ignore his own body's limitations with every stroke of magic. And that's without regard for safety.

The higher the output of magic, the more carefully it must be handled. The higher the output of magic, the more careful you have to be when handling it. My magic enhancement is not only about improving my pure physical abilities, but also about strengthening my defenses to withstand those physical abilities.

The ratio is almost the same, and since Rahite doesn't have to worry about his own body, he can actually output twice as much magic power.

I see. That's tricky. ......

I'm sorry, but you need to loosen up a bit. The armor hurts.

You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few things to do. He let out a huff as he loosened his arms and got to his feet.

"Ilias, is Shishou safe?

I hear Wolfe's voice coming from behind the crumbling crystal walls. Wolfe could have destroyed the crystal and jumped into it just like I did.

"I'm safe! Where's Ecdysium?

"I'm safe too. But that blow, it looked like it involved Raheit himself. ......

Yeah, that's right. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing. You have to be willing to blow everything up without thinking, right?

The crystal shattered and dissipated, revealing an unharmed Raheit. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing. Does the resurrection magic restore even the magic power of the person himself to a perfect state?

You've stepped into the realm of the inhuman, haven't you? And now... Ilias, Wolfe, can you stick around for a bit?

Oh, yeah. ......

No problem!

All right, then, you two continue fighting Rahite as long as you can. It would be nice if you could inflict a few near-fatal wounds, if possible. Ecdyke will focus on protecting me.

His shoulder was bleeding just from the current attack. The wound must have been opened because of my forceful movement. For him, even a single blow from Raheit's attack would most likely kill him instantly. Despite the fact that the attack filled the room, there was no hesitation in his eyes.

Are you sure you can win?

We're about to find out.

"...... now?

I won't take long. You'll have to buy me some time.

I'd like to hear the details, but I don't think Raheit will allow it. Then all I can do is trust him and swing my sword.

He moved closer and made sure that Ecdysium had begun to deploy a chain around him before moving to Wolfe's side. I don't think Rahite will honestly attack just me and Wolfe, but if Ecdyke is on the defensive, there is no one more reassuring.

I thought you were going to retreat, but are you going to face them? I'm not sure if I can say this, but I don't think there's any way to win. Even if I had the demon eater that defeated the Scarlet Demon King ready, it would be useless to me. This body will regenerate where my soul is. If I evacuate this place with just my soul, I can escape as much as I want.

"I thought about that. I've thought about that, but it would ruin my relationship with Selende. We don't want to risk the accidental death of one of our own.

He took out a bundle of parchment from Kuto's mouth and rolled it up. It's not like he's reading the words inside, he just seems to be looking at them. .......

What the hell good is that going to do?

"We'll see how useful it is. If it doesn't, I'll run, but until then, I'll keep trying.

You think I'm going to let you do what you want?

Raheit had no idea what he was doing, but he must have sensed something amiss. He turned on us with a clear intent to kill.

"Wolfe, let's go for it!

Yes!

It would be dangerous to create a situation where Rahite could concentrate on attacking, since he could output magic power beyond the limits of his body. I'm not going to be able to do anything about it.

That's shallow. --Area, set.

Too late!

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it. You'll need to be able to do this in order to get the best results.

"Too late? No, you can't interfere with me with an attack like yours. Here, there--

"What?

I looked in the direction that Rahite's gaze swam, but realized that it was a trap. In the opposite direction, Rahite's severed left arm was already lying there, and magic was being constructed using that left arm as a starting point.

As my vision was covered by the crystal, I jumped towards the lying left arm, cutting through the crystal. The mechanics of this spell were completely clear to him after seeing it twice. Rahite spreads the construction generated by the crystal like a plant seed, and sends out orders to deploy it starting from the arm. When it's a point, it's a single point, when it's a field, it's all over the ground, and when it's an area, it's spread out into the air.

You can destroy their construction with the magic seal stone, but you can't nullify all of them because the seeds are scattered in an instant. So if I keep the arm that flies the deployment order away from my sword like I am doing now, there will be no way for me to stop the widespread attack. Furthermore, even if I nullify the construction around me, the crystals generated from the surroundings will still reach me as a physical attack.

Ilias, are you okay?

"No problem. You're not equipped with a magic seal stone, are you, Wolfe? Can you handle it?

Yeah, there's some kind of seed. If you concentrate, you can see it! If you blow it up before it opens, you can move around a bit!

If he can read the trick, his reflexes will be enough to deal with it. But the problem is that it's hard for us to keep him from attacking us.

Looking at him through the gap in the crumbling crystal, it seemed that the crystal's attack had not reached him. There were shattered chains of ecduk around him, but something else seemed to have prevented the attack.

Perhaps it was the invisible chain that had been created by the True Blind Eye. It was not suitable for long-term protection, but its hardness was far stronger than the wards that Lakra had deployed at full force. It was the only option that would give him the time he wanted.

I'm sure you'll find it interesting to see how the eye ...... works. It has the power to lead not to human karma, but to the truth of demons.

Don't think it will be easy to break through this defense.

It's not that difficult, you know. It's not that difficult. See, even though it boasts a high level of hardness, it's still just a chain, right? There are plenty of gaps.

Something like a mist begins to drift around Rahite. I'm not sure if it's controlled by Rahite's will, but it spreads quickly and reaches me.

I don't know what it is, but I intuitively know that it's dangerous to touch this mist, so I use the wind pressure of my sword to dispel it, and a crystal appears on the tip of my sword, just like before.

Is this fog a tiny crystal?

The crystal at the tip of the sword exploded on the spot and showered me with shards of it. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to get any more protection while deploying that particular defense.

"Exod--

No problem. If they can get through the gaps in the chains, then we can only protect them with something other than chains.

The fog changed its direction near him and Ecdysium. It is not visible to the naked eye, but as the mist evades it, its shape comes into focus, revealing a perimeter warding of the same type that Lakra uses.

"You've been able to deploy more than just chains?

"I've learned how to handle demonic power from Duvraeus. I've been able to materialize only my symbolic chains, but now I can reproduce anything rooted in my memory.

"Well, that's good. I'm sure it won't last long if you have that strong of a ward deployed all over.

The fog is still drifting around Exoik and the others. The fog is still hovering around them, and even if we, who can move freely, try to dispel it, it will move freely and surround them again. If we are too conscious of our surroundings, the fog might touch me or Wolfe.

I'll keep my wards on. I'll let you know when I'm nearing the limit, and you two can fight without worrying!

"Yes!

Wolfe skillfully manipulated the magic from his gauntlets to blow away the mist. I'll be fine as long as I only think about myself.

I regained my grip on my sword and launched a charge at Raheit. First, I will use the wind pressure of my sword to blow away the fog and make my way to Raheit.

You know it won't work, and yet you continue. That's foolish.

"I'm not going to follow a pattern!

As the fog began to gather in front of him, he detoured around to get behind Rahite, and with a flash, cut off Rahite's arm and blew away the fog between Rahite and Wolfe.

"There!

Anticipating this action, Ulfe's fist, which had jumped into the air, caught Rahite in the torso. The sound of breaking bones, shredding flesh, and bursting guts echoed in my ears, and at the same time, Rahite's body began to distort and swell.

"Wolfe, get back!

Wolfe shot out his magic power and quickly moved away. At the same time, Raheit's body exploded, and the aftermath reached us. I'm not going to use my own body as a disposable weapon. ......!

I've often treated my body poorly, but it's hilarious to be able to do so without a care in the world.

I'm not sure what to make of that. In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site. Some of the blood may have come back, but the expression on Wolfe's face indicates that the damage was not light.

There is a good chance that he will self-destruct in the same way when I cut him down. I don't know how I would have prevented that from happening. ....... It may not be a problem if it happens only a few times, but the damage will surely accumulate.

"d*mn, even a minor injury is fatal for me. You'd better take better care of yourself, Lahite.

He kept his eyes on the parchment, but then opened his mouth. The floor was littered with stacks of parchments that he had just been reading, and only one parchment was in his hand.

"Oh, are you done with your reading?

It wasn't much, really.

So, are you ready to defeat me?

"Well, at least I haven't wasted any time so far. Kutu, give me the three hundred and eighteenth card.

"Hey, Arjisama, yoy shite!

Kuto took out another piece of parchment and handed it to him. He is the only one who understands the meaning of this action. The parchments scattered on the floor are nothing more than bullet points with words scrawled on them, and there is no hint of magic.

"Your threat is your ability to see into people's minds. But right now, being able to read minds is not a problem for me. You can't sway my mind with words like that, can you?

"You'll only embarrass yourself if you don't use such language when you understand the full extent of your opponent's moves. Either way, you're screwed. Just say what you have to say.

I'm telling you, you can't bluff like that. What's the point of a parchment like that?

As soon as Rahite's gaze turned to the parchments scattered on the floor, his expression hardened. What is the meaning of the words on the parchment? The parchment is not a sentence, but a string of letters. ...... Is that a name?

I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm sure you've done a lot of work on that body, but if you've done that much work on it, it means you had other feelings for it. That's why I've been researching the body's birth. The first body you took, it probably belonged to a friend or someone else, right?

No way.

It's the same way Ritual found the bastard. In a country or village where a bastard has caused problems, there will be a certain amount of rumors. Or maybe the village will be destroyed. So I looked up those places and identified them. Rahlheit-Palenza.

Ah!

"Rahlheit was born about thirty years ago in a village in Tlingit territory. I have researched the names of all those born in that village and other nearby villages in the last decade or so. Thank God that the country of Trinh keeps a good list of births. In some cases, it was necessary to use the power of Ao to revive people from that era and have Duvraeori read their memories.

He turned to Raheit and showed him the contents of the parchment he had been holding. There were countless names written on it, and one unnatural blank space in the middle.

In the list of names that had been written without any gaps, one name was missing, right? If a person becomes a Demon Lord in exchange for a name, that name will disappear from all history of this world. There was a person's name written here not long ago. Yes, your real name.

At ......, the other piece of parchment you're holding is .......

It's just a copy. But the language is Japanese. It's a language not of this world.

He turned over the other piece of parchment and showed it to me. He showed me another piece of parchment with a series of letters written in a language I couldn't read at all, with no spaces between them. The reason for what it meant was understood by all present.

"The names taken in exchange for resurrection magic are limited to the things of this world. In the same way that Ao's former name written in Japanese still remains, only your real name written in Japanese remains like this. So, if you look at the list of names written in the language of this world, find a blank space, and then compare that page with the list written in Japanese, you can find out the name ...... that you offered as payment for the reanimation magic.

"No, that's not how ......?

Lahite's expression is becoming less and less relaxed. I'm not sure what to make of it. It's a good idea to take a look at the actual information on the web, as well as to make sure that you're getting the most out of it.

When the price paid for the reanimation spell is regained, the reanimation spell will cease to be effective. I don't even want to think about what the bill will be until then.

"Don't be ridiculous!

I'm sure you're aware of that, but I'm not. I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.

By the way, I don't think you can run away. I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do, and it's not going to be to you, it's going to be to the world.

"Stop ......! Don't move your mouth! You can't allow a man like you to take everything away from me! You have no right to do that! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!

"I don't care if you have the right or not. Return to humanity, ----.

Ignoring Rahite's screams, he uttered a single name.
