140 Episode 140: The Role to Play.txt




 Sakura landed on the ground and promptly activated [Shrinkage] and transitioned next to me and Garnett.

''Lu, Luke-dono! What the hell are those eyes? ......!
He'll tell you the details later!
I'll be fine. I'm not hurt, so don't worry about that.

 I don't have the confidence to explain briefly how I got this "right eye".

 If it hadn't happened to me, I'm sure I wouldn't have believed it very much either.

''(The battle situation is overwhelmingly superior in numbers from two to one to six......, but the Demon King should be getting serious about it too......)''

 On this side, it's me, Garnett, and Sakura.

 And on the other side of the Demon King, Travis, Dustin, and Falcon.

'That demon tribe is clearly not just a bunch of guys.
''The amount of magic and the quality of his magic defenses are definitely at the Demon King level. He's probably the leader of the Demon King's army.
You've got a good feeling about this. You've hit the jackpot. Gandalf, the Demon King, is the real culprit.

 Travis clenched his fist fitted with a mithril-coated caged hand, and Dustin held two magic spears.

 Falcon's right hand held the mithril alloy long sword I had delivered to the Golden Fang, but I wondered if he had taken it from one of the knights.

'You thought you could win by adding more heads. That's something to be taken lightly.

 The Demon King simultaneously made four spheres of vastly accumulated magic power appear with a strong magic defense wall deployed around them.

''......! Watch out! Something's coming up!

 The next moment after I shouted that, something that looked like a creature with a long body appeared through the sphere of magic power like an egg.

 It is a thing that can only be described as a giant snake embodied in elemental magic.

 It was not straight flesh and blood that made up the huge body like a log.

 A mass of fire. A lump of ice. A lump of rock. A clump of wind.

 The four serpents made up of them are swirling around to protect the demon king.

''Don't tell me that's ...... a dragon?''
What? What are you talking about, Sakura? What do you see as a dragon?
'The dragons of the East look like that. They have a body like a serpent, with limbs and horns, and fly without wings. ...... That's what dragons are like.

 Hearing the exchange between Sakura and Garnett, I reminded myself that that was certainly not the same as a giant snake.

 A dragon shaped by the magic of the four great attributes.

 I don't know how the Demon King Gandalf knows about the demonic beasts of the East, but since he's on the edge of an order of magnitude long-lived elf, it wouldn't be surprising if his knowledge and insight were an order of magnitude wider.

''Go.''

 Under the Demon King's command, four magical dragons split into two groups and flew through the underground space.

 Rock and wind on Travis and his friends' side, and fire and ice dragons on our side.
 They twisted their bodies like real demonic beasts and attacked us with their fangs pointed at us.

''Mmmmph!''

 Travis catches the rock dragon charging low, head-on, as it charges through the air.

 Both of his stomping feet scrape the floor, and as soon as the giant body comes to a complete stop, a rush of mithril-coated caged hands slams into the dragon's face.

 In the blink of an eye, the original form of the dragon's face is gone - but it instantly regains its shape and tries to bite Travis to pieces.

''Not so easy, is it ......!
He's persistent!

 A wind dragon tracks the Falcon as it flies around with its wings spread.

 It is nearly translucent, almost transparent, and the slashes it makes in passing don't seem to make any sense.

 The Falcon, frustrated, revealed his frustration and filled his wings with magic and tried to obliterate the wind dragon with a tremendous flap of his wings.

 Half of the dragon lost its shape in the gust of wind, but it quickly rebuilt itself and bared its fangs to Falcon in the blink of an eye.

''d*mn it, how many times do I have to obliterate it!
"Master Luke! Garnett! I'll take care of this one!

 Sakura challenges the dragon of fire and ice with a light red sword in her hand.

 The nature of the baboon kane used in the sword absorbs the flames and melts the ice dragon with its blade.

 However, this is only a stopgap measure, and you are forced to fight like you are treading on thin ice, using your high-speed body movements to evade the dragons' attacks with a single piece of paper, and swinging your sword.

 Three of the four dragons are attracting the four dragons.
 Now is the only time I have an opportunity to attack the Demon King himself.

 I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to do, but I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to do.

"-Bowl, thunder!

 The demon spear thrown out at the same time as the fierce stepping in, the spear of magic power that was a duplicate of himself was deployed in large numbers and rushed to Demon King Gandalf like a torrential rain of horizontal blows.

 At the same time as the demon king strengthened the defensive wall in front of him to prevent it, Dustin sprinted in a low posture, went around the demon king's side and threw another demon spear.

''Run, Lightning!

 The magic spear is a one-hit kill against the spreading magic spear.

 The spear, which boasts automatic tracking and tremendous power, thrusts its spearhead into the Demon King's defensive wall and repeatedly accelerates as it tries to break through the defensive wall.

 Even for a Demon King, there must be a limit to the amount of magic power he can use at one time.

 No matter how huge the reservoir was, the amount of water that could be drawn from it collectively would be the limit value of the waterway's capacity, and the entire storage capacity could not be drawn out at the same time.

 Now that they had turned their enormous magic power into a localized reinforcement of their defenses against Dustin's continuous attacks, they should not be able to deal with further attacks.

''......!''

 Garnet instantly closed the gap between the two with a strong step and tried to pierce the defensive wall and the Demon King's body with a full-body stab.

 But - a small-scale transfer magic was activated at the Demon King's hand, and a slender sword appeared in his hand.

 The moment I saw it, my 'right eye' appealed for a strong warning.

''No! Come back!
Whaaat ......!

 The moment Garnett stopped so close, the sword wielded by the Demon King flicked the two Demon Spears and Mithril's sword together.

 Garnett jumped backwards and came back.

 Dustin grabbed the demon spear that automatically returned and stopped sprinting in front of us.

 In the hands of the two of them, the three gains shatter and snap in half with a sound.

 In the midst of the astonishment that swept through us, the Demon King Gandalf looked back at us leisurely, as if to say it was only natural.

"A sword made of mithril and steel, the remains of a thousand year old tree and the tusks of a divine beast - it's a masterpiece, but in terms of pure performance as a weapon, it can't match the sword of my adamant.
...... How many trump cards do you have in your closet?

 It's seriously unbearable for the person you are dealing with.

 If Garnett had rushed in like that, he would have been cut in half, along with his sword.

 The Falcon, who had been engaged in an aerial battle, shouted to Travis as he took in the sight of the Demon King turning his face towards us and turning his back to that side.

'Hey, adventurer! You do the same with the dragon over here!
I'm in! Bring them in!

 Falcon dived and flew low, attracting the wind dragon with his rapid descent and low flight, flying away right next to Travis at top speed.

 Travis then frightened the rock dragon with his left fist and met the wind dragon with a fierce wind pressure that he unleashed his right fist on.

''Gandalf!''

 The top speed Falcon roared and charged at the defensive wall.

 The Demon King was indeed forced to respond in that direction, and he turned around again and slashed the Falcon through the defensive wall.

''Guaaa......!''

 The Falcon, scattering blood splatter.

 Those eyes were looking at me behind me, not at the Demon King.

''I know, you want me to do something about it, right? (You don't need to tell me that!)

 I started the biggest job I could do right now, as fast as I could for myself.

 Grabbing half of each of the two severed demon spears with my right hand, I pick up the sword barrel of the broken Mithril sword with my left hand.

 It doesn't have to be a perfect [restoration].
 Even if it was in a different form from any of the originals, as long as it can be used as a weapon without excess or deficiency, that's fine.

''(Activate the skill--【Restoration】start!

 Three weapons created by specific materials are rebuilt as a single weapon.

 This is 【Restoration】, 【Synthesis】, 【Fusion】, and none of them.

 The current me has decided to live as a weapons dealer.
 If that's the case, the biggest role I have to play is--it's obvious that I'm going to make weapons.

 Mithril and steel. The branches of a sacred tree and the fangs of a magical beast.
 Multiple materials were mixed together, and a complex, intertwined spear appeared in my hand.
