[Onslaught of Abyss Walkers]
“Abyss Walkers!? They have come out!?”
The running Abyss Walkers are aiming the cylinders that fires exploding fireball toward us.
The red lights that indicate their line of fire crawls up the bodies of me and the golems I created.
Dangerous!
If I get hit even once by it, I will be unable to move.
Seeing the red light crawling up my body, I immediately get away from the place.
In the next moment——
A flame of reddish black explosion blows up in the place where I was just before, gouging out the ground.
[Master! The golems are!]
“Ahh, they sure are blown up magnificently… Even so, I never thought they would blow up their friends as well.”
The beastmen who were fighting the golems I created were swallowed up in the explosion, resulting in many injured people.
On the other hand, the white robed people seem to know the power of the Abyss Walker’s weapons, as they have taken a distance from the golems and are unharmed.
“It was dodged! Make the Abyss Walkers aim better! It doesn’t matter how many beastmen get swallowed up!”
Among the white robed people, I hear the man, who is the only one who covered even his face with a white cloth, instructing the people who appeared to be his subordinates.
They don’t care about the lives of the beastmen?
Those guys… don’t they have consciences as human beings?
I gaze at the injured beastmen with a glance.
People who lost an arm or a leg and are writhing, people who were struck by splinters on their faces and got their eyes crushed, people who got a large hole opened in their abdomens and have a large amount of blood flowing out of them, people who received serious injuries like those are screaming their lungs out.
I can’t leave them as is, can I?
The beastmen were only used by the white robed people after all.
Having decided to help the injured beastmen, I chant a magic to rob the sight of the Abyss Walkers.
“Dark Mist, o’ mana, gather! Become a black fog and conceal mine self!”
The dense black fog generated from my hands spreads to the surrounding in an instant and swallows all the light sources, enclosing the area in a dark light.
[It is pitch black! I cannot see anything, Master!]
“There are various useful magics among support magic, see. Night Vision, o’ mana, gather! Become eyes that see through the dark night!”
After the chant is finished, pale white human figures emerge in the world that is enclosed in darkness.
They should have been visible to Dayle through my view.
[I see them! It is really convenient, isn’t it? I will have Noelia-sama teach me this magic too in my next growth! They are visible, they are visible to Dayle too!]
With this, the Abyss Walkers should not be able to fire the fireballs thoughtlessly anymore.
Let’s treat the beastmen in the meantime.
There are a lot of people with injuries that will be dangerous if they are just treated by stopping the bleeding.
I better activate the highest-ranked, ranged healing magic that I learned from Noelia.
“Revival, o’ mana, gather! Become a new breath of life and heal those people.”
I cast Revival, which is the most powerful ranged healing magic that I can use now, upon the injured people who appeared as white silhouettes in the pitch-black darkness.
The activated magic closes the injuries of the beastmen who are writhing in pain, temporarily paralyzing their pain, and the large amount of blood they lost are replenished by their natural recovery ability that is forcibly enhanced by the magic power.
“The pain is gone!?”
“The bleeding has stopped!”
“But my body can’t move and I’m starving.”
The beastmen who have stop screaming are talking about the condition of their healed inuries.
The lost body parts can’t be restored, but with this, they won’t die due to hemorrhage.
Next is to persuade the beastmen and escape from this place, huh.
The effect of Dark Mist has already diminished, and it is only a matter of time before the attacks of the Abyss Walkers resumed.
“If you don’t want to get involved in the battle anymore, take your companions and escape from this place. If you get out through the exit of the passage, my companion should protect you!”
At the exit of the passage, Cinzia and Dimol should have repelled the beastmen who were guarding the old abandoned mine.
The beastmen find it difficult to choose to leave, but eventually, one of them carries their companion and heads for the exit of the passage; seeing that, the others also follow after them.
“Whew, with this, the beastmen won’t get involved anymore.”
Right after the beastmen finished escaping, the effect of Dark Mist runs out, returning the normal visibility.
“The beastmen run away while the dark fog was up, huh. Well, no matter; they are only useful for digging crystals or as a wall of meat. Now that the hindrances are gone, this is the perfect opportunity. Command the Abyss Walkers to kill that man with all their power.”
The man who covered even his face with a white cloth gives an instruction to his subordinates to spur on the Abyss Walkers.
The golems have disappeared, so all ten red lights are directed at me.
[Master, w-w-w-what do we do!]
“Well, we have no choice but to engage them until the beastmen and Marco-dono escape safely.”
After activating body enhancement magic, I barely manage to dodge the fireballs that are fired one after another and draw near to the Abyss Walkers.
“O’ many lightnings floating in the atmosphere, dwell in my sword and become a great flash of lightning. Thunder Sword.”
After closing the distance with the Abyss Walkers, I make Dayle be cladded in the lightning of the Thunder Sword.
Brought in to close quarter, the Abyss Walkers repositions their cylindrical objects and thrust them toward me with a tremendous speed.
Kh! Their reactions are fast!
As expected, they are enhanced Abyss Walkers.
Even though I’ve enhanced my body, I can only barely evade.
Slipping through their thrusts, I stab Dayle who is cladded in lightning into an Abyss Walker in the front row.
The lightning that touched its body runs through its whole body; then the Abyss Walker’s body shakes with a start as though it was electrocuted and it drop the cylindrical object.
[It is numbed! Master!! I will do a follow up attack, okay! ■▲〇※■▲〇※！]
The moment I notice Dayle who has been dug into the body of Abyss Walker emitting a dazzling light, a light runs through the Abyss Walker’s body again.
“Ugigigigi.”
The numbed Abyss Walker squeezes out a scream-like voice from its ripped mouth.
After pulling out the sword from the Abyss Walker, I begin chanting Spell Sword again.
“I’ll settle it with the next one! O’ many lightnings floating in the atmosphere, dwell in my sword and become a great flash of lightning. Thunder Sword.”
“Kishaaaaa!”
The Abyss Walker, who is spilling out green blood from its belly, screams with its menacing, ripped mouth.
“Uoooooo! This is the end of you!”
I thrust Dayle cladded in lightning toward the center of Abyss Walker’s only one big eye.
After the lightning generated from the thrusted Dayle gushed out around its eye, its large eyeball swells up and bursts, splashing gooey fluid to the surroundings.
“We did it!”
After I pulled out the sword from the motionless Abyss Walker that lost its eye, it falls to the ground.
[Master! The next ones are coming! We do not have time to stand around!]
After I defeat one of them, the remaining nine’s fighting spirit doesn’t diminished; they approach from behind trying to pierce through my gap.
“Eei! Why are you guys having difficulty taking down a mere magic swordsman! Use the launcher! Even if it hits the other Abyss Walkers, it will only be a minor damage! We have received an order from the leader to erase anyone investigating the existence of this base!”
While avoiding the attacks of the Abyss Walkers, I hear the man who covered even his face with a white cloth screaming out an order, seemingly want to kill me at all cost.
Immediately, I see the man’s subordinates giving instructions to the Abyss Walkers.
Maybe the fighting Abyss Walkers can’t make a decision themselves?
Are they like puppets that only faithfully executes their instructions?
When I’m thinking about that, I come to my senses due to a warning from Dayle.
[Master! A red light!]
“Owa! W-what! Are these guys not intending to let me go!?”
Three Abyss Walkers cling to my body and grab me firmly as though not to let me run away.
And a red light crawls up toward my body.
The next moment——
I see a fireball fired by another Abyss Walker flying in a straight line toward me.
“Abyss Walkers!? They have come out!?”
The running Abyss Walkers are aiming the cylinders that fires exploding fireball toward us.
The red lights that indicate their line of fire crawls up the bodies of me and the golems I created.
