C462: Intercepting

I was unsure of my decision – I had to go save Nanami but I couldn’t let Marquis Deer Grafful run away.

Emina was very concerned about my hesitation.

“I want you to leave the Marquis Deer Grafful and me to Farma, while you go to Nanami’s aid.”

The calm Emina would not do anything rash and even if Marquis Deer Grafful tried to run I believed that Farma would control her emotional outburst.

After reminding Farma to not do anything rash I left to help Nanami.

As I arrived at the entrance to the pass guarded by Nanami I saw that Vajra Kai was attacked by a pink magicraft and a winged magicraft.

“Nanami! I’ll help you now!”

First, I went towards the flying magicraft. The opponent didn’t seem to notice me until I hit it. Furthermore, I grabbed the winged magicraft, which had been thrown off balance by my kick and swung it around to suppress its movement. Eventually, it lost its ability to fly, and it plummeted down.

Once on the ground, it would be troublesome if it flew again, so I first forcefully ripped off one of its wings.

The enemy magicraft, which had its wing ripped off, tried to move away from Arleo-2, flailing wildly but I chased after it with my sword drawn.

In order to save the winged magicraft, the pink magicraft attacked me with her scythe. It was quite fast, but the trajectory was straight and easy to read, so I lightly avoided it.

Not giving up, it struck a second blow, but I repelled it with my sword.

The pink magicraft was thrown off balance by the attack so I tried to follow up and slash it down, but the opponent avoided it desperately. However, it could not avoid it completely and the arm holding the scythe was cut off.

While holding back the part where the cut was made with its remaining arm, the pink magicraft, perhaps sensing its inferiority, tried to flee.

It was a wise decision since it had lost its weapon, but it was not so naive as to let it escape so easily. I tried to chase after it and end the game, but there was no need to do so because Vajra Kai blocked the way of the pink magicraft.

“I won’t let you get away!”

Nanami swung her axe down at the pink magic machine, a little angrily. The opponent tried to avoid the attack by rolling on the ground, but the axe swung down and touched its shoulder and blew it away.

Vajra Kai tries to pursue the fleeing pink magicraft, but it is intercepted by countless enemies approaching from behind in droves. Furthermore, as if to protect the winged magicraft as well, a wall was built with magicrafts between it and Arleo-2.

It seems that they realized their inferiority and ordered their allies to advance.

If possible, I would like to defeat those two powerful enemies here so I decided to eliminate the enemy magicrafts in my way and chase after the fleeing winged magicraft.

I fire a series of magic light bullets while destroying nearby enemy magicrafts with my sword.

Nanami seems to have the same idea and begins to take out the enemy magicrafts that got in her way. However, although we overwhelm the group of enemies, there are too many of them to catch the two escaping magicrafts.

While cutting down the attacking enemy magicrafts one after the other, I waited for the right moment and flew up into the sky to search for the two fleeing magicraft.

In the end I could not find the pink magicraft and the winged magicraft, which had already fled into the crowd of enemy troops.
