Chapter 255 Supreme Martial Arts Festival ⑦
Part 2
High-level Hunters tend to attack on a large scale. If you join the battle in the wrong way, you may even get in the way.
Party members who always work together would have no problem with their teamwork, but strangely enough, the people who sat at the members of 《First Step (Hajimari no Ashiato)》 seat seemed to be only watching the situation quietly.
There is not a shred of anxiety on their face, and you can see that they have absolute trust in their Leader.
Or is it possible that his plan would fall apart if they joined carelessly?
The fox mask man says in a heavy voice.
“I see…… As I thought, it was strange. Contrary to, how you declared war on us, he was different. So, you are the 『Real』 one?” (Kitsune’s Boss)
“…………” (Cry)
“But, it means, just one more, thing, to do.” (Kitsune’s Boss)
《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 didn’t say anything. He just smiled and grinned.
Without even taking a stance, his eyes looked straight at the fox mask man. He showed an arrogant attitude that was different from the fox mask man.
And then, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 opened his mouth for the first time.
“First of all――Let me apologize. I didn’t think it would turn out like this.” (Cry)
His eyes were firmly fixed on the fox mask man, but his words were probably spoken to Kryhi.
Maybe there was something that even the Divine Strategist could not predict…… But if you look at Kryhi, who had complete control over lightning, it wouldn’t be surprising to think that he could win.
“Whether it is one person, or two, it makes no difference. Repent and die, for having defied us.” (Kitsune’s Boss)
The fox mask man’s voice was quiet, but it held an unfathomable amount of hatred behind it.
《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 blinked for a moment at his words, but then said, in a voice that sounded as if he were taken aback.
“…… Don’t be so angry. It was my bad too. I certainly screwed around a bit too much, but let me tell you――I think there was a problem with your organizational structure, too, don’t you think so?” (Cry)
“!? Wh…… A…… T!?” (Kitsune’s Boss)
The fox mask man was at a loss for words. And then, the sky――Flashed.
A giant lightning bolt fell down.
A sound that shakes the air. And light. The scale was the same as the previous lightning, but the blow was certainly filled with willpower.
The lightning pierced the fox mask man――Not, it pierced 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》.
The unexpected attack took my breath away. Franz’s eyes were also wide open.
The impact caused the fox mask man to take a step back.
However, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 received the lightning that fell from the sky like God’s judgment and remained calm even inside the light.
Kryhi’s arm, which was raised high, fell as if he had run out of strength.
《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 was silent for a while and then said apologetically.
“I’ll apologize…… So can you forgive me?” (Cry)
“I, see…… You certainly, are different, compared to, the fake. However――Can you still remain calm, after seeing this!?” (Kitsune’s Boss)
The fox mask man pulled a shining sword from his waist. Franz, who was frozen next to me, shuddered at the sight of it.
“Impossible…… The Key of the Earth!? This is――Something that 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 was keeping!?” (Franz)
A weapon of destruction that has once destroyed countless nations and civilizations――The 『Key of the Earth』. According to some literature, its power is said to be greater than that of any existing weapon, and it can split the earth, the sea, and the sky.
The Relic, which was conversely safe due to requiring an enormous amount of Magic power, was now something that seemed to have been recharged by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》.
“Kuh! Franz, have the Magi prepare defensive Magic!” (Radrick)
I quickly stood up and gave instructions. I don’t know why that Relic ended up in the hands of the enemy, but that is not what I should be thinking about right now.
As long as that Relic is in the hands of that fox mask man, evacuation is already pointless. No one knows what is going on, but if we delay in dealing with the situation, we will all die.
No, even if we did not die, the effect of this Relic would destroy all civilization on this continent, not to mention Cleat or Zebrudia.
We have prepared Magi skilled in defensive Magic in anticipation of this situation, but will they even be able to prevent it――.
At that moment, one of the Imperial Guard, who had been sent out to guard the arena, ran into the VIP seat, out of breath.
“”Commander (Dancho)”, it’s an attack! People wearing a fox mask is attacking――Her Highness, Princess Murina!” (Imperial Guard)
“What did you say!?” (Franz)
Franz received the report with a grim look on his face but immediately turned towards Murina.
Murina also blinks anxiously. A nobleman from another country sitting in a nearby VIP seat looks at Zebrudia’s seat while wondering what was going on.
Then the Imperial Guard took a deep breath and gave a precise report.
“…… Well……………… They are fighting against the fake Imperial Princess Murina.” (Imperial Guard)
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Everything is coming together!
Cry’s plan of Sytry collecting Murina’s blood and creating Kilkill-chan was all for this moment!
Everything is in the palm of Cry-sama’s hand!
Tchao à plus!
