The Peerless Kobold - Chapter 95
A white dove perched on the bell tower gazed at Alvesta who leaped into the plaza in front of the auditorium. It shared its vision with the silver-haired, blue-eyed mage who lightly hovered 1000 meters in the air.
From the high altitude, Ernesta’s silver hair shines in the moonlight, and her back has invisible wings made up of pure magic, which catches the updraft caused by wind magic and allows her to stay in the air.
Furthermore, the light-tinged ball of wind that circulated above her raised palm formed a halo shape approximately 3 meters in diameter. Doesn’t it look just like a halo?
It is a unique magic called “Halo of the Storm Angel Zachiel” that can only be used by the Tempest Witch who has received the blessing of Setio, the Storm Goddess. The intention is to increase the diameter of the halo, to counteract errors in long range magic due to the distance. Its features were a range of more than 10 times that of normal magic and unparalleled cutting power.
The clouds above and below were scattered in advance. She switched her vision to her own magic-enhanced eyes for sniping and aimed at the small black dot that was about to run through the center of the auditorium square below.
“…Let’s finish this in one shot! Zachiel’s Halo!!”
And just before the increasingly shining Storm Angel’s Halo was thrown, the white-masked monster looked up at the sky!
“Giiiiiiiiiih!?”
DOWOOOOOOOOOOH
The Halo of the Storm Angel that she unleashed tore through Alvesta in an instant at a speed close to 1000 m/s, but the monster tilted and shifted his head, warping his upper body to avoid a direct hit to his mask.
After the halo cut Alvesta from his right shoulder to his g***n at a slight angle and cut him in half, it also partially cut through the statue of the dean nearby, and then disappeared as if it were sucked into the ground.
“Woruah!!” (Did she kill it!?)
“Gauuo, Guruah!!” (Not yet, Leader!!)
“I, I so-somewhow s-sur-survived that.”
Alvesta, who should have been cut in two already, stands on the spot without collapsing. The blood spurting from the cut surface joined the divided halves, returning the masked monster to its original form.
“What the hell? It can’t be!”
The scene is also visible to Ernesta through the white dove’s eyes, but invoking a second shot is impossible for her since she is running out of magic due to the halo and flight magic.
“Guruo, voaru gaouh!!” (Everyone, aim for the mask!!)
“Gauh! (Got it!)
“Ruuoa kuanoh!!” (Burn bright! Fox Fire!!)
I nocked an arrow on the mechanical bow that I held at a slight angle the same time I shouted.
From a short distance, Blazer also activated the mechanism of his gauntlet, and deployed the crossbow attached to it while my sister created a huge Fox Fire with both of her hands.
“I, I w-wo-won’t… l-let you!!”
“Uoh!” (Uoh!)
“Gau” (Tsk.)
“Kukyuuh!” (Kyaah!)
However, the masked monster was faster than us and unleashed a wide swath of blood.
I have a feeling that I was exposed to a small amount of blood during the battle earlier, but… I’m not sure whether I would not be infected with the Bleeding Disease even if I’m exposed to a large amount of blood.
“Kuoh!!” (Get out of the way!!)
So I did not push it and jumped away from the spot and kept my distance.
“Kuruoaaaaan!” (Take this!)
Lancer, who was behind us, threw the slash spear at the place where Alvesta’s head was supposed to be while the spray of blood made it difficult to see, but…
Clunk
Only the sound of the spear falling over could be heard in the plaza.
After the blood screen dissipated, the masked entity’s form was nowhere to be found…
“…Uoon garuoaan.” (…You can run, but you can’t hide.)
