CH 89

[Mirage Body]

“O’ mana, gather in my hand! Become gravitational force and smash everything! ‘Mega Gravity’!

I cast a magic, forming a super gravitational field around me.

Due to the Mega Gravity that I activated with full power, the ground on which I’m standing can’t bear the weight and collapse as deep as my height right away.

Then, the red fireball passes through the spot I was before.

Haah, that was dangerous.

It seems that the other party intends to kill me regardless of appearance.

The three Abyss Walkers who clung to me got injured because they were in the Mega Gravity’s area of effect.

[Master, now is the time!]

“Ahh, I know. But I want to try something first. It’s a technique that I feel practicable precisely because I have a uselessly large amount of magic power, see.”

[Master, now is not the time to be playing around, isn’t it!?]

“Don’t worry, it may succeed after all.”

I create the magic based on the image that has solidified in my mind.

In the case of Summon Golem, you to have to give various orders yourself, so it’s a little troublesome.

And when their number increases, your senses will also become dull.

If I create an independent golem, or rather a clone with magic power, those problems should be solved.

“O’ mana, gather in mine hand! Become mine clone and manifest here! ‘Mirage Body’.”

I feel a large amount of magic power slip out of my body, but the magic is activated splendidly, and myself with the same appearance as that of my own appear next to me.

[Another Master!?]

“Ahh, it’s my clone. Though it’s just a mass of magic power, it can fight against the people I recognize as enemies without being ordered.”

The Mirage Body clone, that suddenly pulled out its sword, chants Thunder Sword magic.

Then, it thrusts its sword at the Abyss Walker that’s lying at its feet.

“Though it will disappear when it’s magic power runs out.”

[If there is another Master, which Master’s order should Dayle follow?]

“Don’t worry, that one won’t speak after all.”

Even while I was having a conversation with Dayle, the Mirage Body clone chants Thunder Sword again, and slashes at the other Abyss Walker that has begun to stand up.

Both its movement and power are almost the same as me.

My magic power has been consumed by more than half, but my combat power should has increased by more than double that amount.

I watch it fighting with a glance, but the Mirage Body magic sure is more successful than I expected.

“Now then, we will fight too, so that we don’t lose to the clone.”

[Yes!]

After kicking the crushed and sunken ground, we follow after the clone and jump out to above ground.

“H-he increased! The magic swordsman from earlier has become two!?”

“He’s much faster than the imitation golem!”

“Both of them can use magic! Ahh, another Abyss Walker is…”

Having returned to the above ground, I, together with the Mirage Body clone, lead the enemies by their noses, restraining the crowding Abyss Walkers with magics and swords, and when a gap appears, we thrust in Thunder Sword at the same time, slaying the enemy.

As expected of my clone.

Sword’s distance, magic selection, and evasion, it does everything as I expected it to do.

It seems that I can left the close combat to the clone to some extent.

In that case, I——

“Be clad in my mana, and take the form of human. Summon Golem.”

Thanks to the clone, the load of the battle has reduced and I get some leeway, so I decided to increase the number of cards I can play.

I have my imitations that have risen from the ground to cling to an Abyss Walker.

The moment the created golems cling to it, I raise my senses’ connection with the golems and chant the greatest fire attribute magic.

“O’ mana, gather in mine hand! Become a flame that burns everything and erase mine enemies! The light of the end 《Megiddo Explosion》！！”

After setting the golems as the point of the activation, I immediately cut my connection with the golems.

The next moment, a great explosive flame erupts from the golems holding the Abyss Walker, then I can hear a voice of agony coming from the Abyss Walker that is wrapped in flames.

My Mirage body clone clads his sword in Thunder Sword and cut off the head of the burning and writhing Abyss Walker.

“U-unbelievable… Even though just fighting against those Abyss Walkers is supposed to be impossible, he even overwhelmed them with magic. I-it’s over. Let’s abandon this place and run aw——”

“It’s just a few Abyss Walkers! You have to absolutely kill them! Those who speak of retreating will follow the same path as this guy!”

After the scared subordinate fell to the ground like a puppet that had its strings cut, smoke comes out of the cylinder held by the man who covered even his face with a white cloth.

The white robed people who are watching the situation raise their weapons and head toward us with the remaining Abyss Walkers.

I just have to grit my teeth and do it, huh…

The problem is whether I have enough magic power though…

From what I sense, it seems that it has decreased to the point that I can feel the bottom of my magic power that had been always bottomless.

Noelia and the others always said that I have a vast amount of magic power, but I finally become aware of the bottom of my magic power for the first time due to the magic power consumed in today’s battle.
