Okay. Gil, can you handle this?
All right. You want to go ahead?
Oh. We need to track down Mr. Julia. Fortunately, we've already found his trail.
I agree. Well, we'll hold them off.


　Silas tells Gil that and turns to leave the place. Originally, they are all special class anti-magicians who have been transferred into space, but that's because they don't defy Claudia's magic, and that's why they're all here. All of them understood her intention to activate her magic and came here on that basis. This is because if we fight on that spot, the damage would be enormous. For the sake of this ward city, we can't fight inside the base. However, once they came outside, there would be no more restraint.


　All of them have already entered a battle position.


''........I won't let you go.


　Next to Silas was Bell, who had already pulled out his sword. It might look like a spatial transfer from the side. But it was a pure physical skill that increased physical movement speed to the limit. Such a bell's two names were Kenki, the Sword Princess. It is also double-meaning double-meaning and also means sword demon. Her behavior is exactly like a demon who has mastered the sword. It's almost impossible to believe that she exists in the human realm. Probably, if one were to speak only of pure combat skills without the use of magic, Belle is the strongest of all human beings.


　If she used magic and strengthened her body, it would not be possible to talk to a mere mortal.
　But what she was facing right now was the strongest man in humanity.......but her sword was being received by Gil's Claymore.


'Then I'll leave it to you,'


　With that last statement, Silas disappeared from the scene. Of course, the Special Class Counter-Magicians tried to follow it, but that was not allowed.


　The special class opponents facing each other. The die has already been cast.



Belle, calm down. How do you know it's not Julia?　It would be strange to not even agree to a hearing in the first place. You refuse to do that and run away. And you, who are complicit in that escape, deserve to be considered a traitor too.
''This is a trap.........Gil, the situation is already too late......so we have to fight......I need to bring Yulia-kun and Princess Liane together...........''
Bell. If you know what you're doing, tell me why. If you don't, I'll have to cut you down.
I can't talk about it here........and phew.......


　Belle sneers wryly. Seeing that, Gil is horrified. He remembered that this is exactly the face of that sword princess.


'.........Gil can I cut?


　Pressure. It arose from directly above Gil. Even though they were discussing, Bell's sword shot attacked Gil without mercy. As if to say no questions asked. Seeing that action, a fight was already inevitable.


''Thank you for stalling for time, Belle.
Eira-chan are you going to be able to do this?
'I can't afford not to do it in this emergency...'


　And the world will be ruled by ice.


The Frostsphere.



　What emerges is a world of ice as far as the eye can see. All the ground freezes over and everything is ready to go.


　So. The current offense and defense, and even the conversation is a decoy. All of this was just stalling for time in order to activate Eira's frozen realm 《Frost Sphere》. Of course, other than Gil, Roy, Derrick, Sheila, and Leo had sensed it, but they had been swallowed up by Bell's overwhelming killing spirit. That's why they allowed the Wide Area Interference System 《Sphere》 to be activated.


''Eve, you should use the Wide Area Interference System 《Sphere》 too!
Enough with Eira.
Of course not. You're dealing with an extra-grade demon. Take it seriously.
I'm not allowed to kill her, am I?
'I wouldn't be a specialist anti-magician if it was so easy to die.
Okay.


　When Eira urged Eve to do so, she also activated the wide area interference system 《Sphere》. But for once, we can't let her activate it. Sheila was the one who moved to obstruct Eve. The weapon she held was a scythe. When Sheila appeared above Eve's head, she wielded the scythe as it was... but this ice world was under Eira's control. Her attack is blocked by the wall of ice generated by Eira.


''Guh........!


　When I blurted out that, Eve's Wide Area Interference System 《Sphere》 had already been activated. However, even without that interference, Eve was able to activate the Wide Area Interference System 《Sphere》. Unlike Eira, her wide area interference system "Sphere" does not require much time to activate. The reason for this was still that Eve was a genius. Eira admits it. No, it's not just Eira who admits it.


　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.


"--The Decadent Realm [Gothic Sphere]


　When Eve puts her hands on the ground, doll after doll is generated from the already frozen ground. But that's not the real value. Eve activated Eira's frozen area, the Frost Sphere, by superimposing her own decadent area, the Gothic Sphere.


　The Decadent Realm 《Gosic Sphere》. It is a spell that creates a space that deprives an arbitrary target of magical elements. Furthermore, the puppets that were created one after another, when they bite into the target, squeeze out the magic element. Moreover, there are more than a thousand of them. It could be said that this space, which specializes in thoroughly weakening the opponent, is a natural enemy for the opponents.


　However, this time, he constructed his magic in such a way that it was superimposed on Eira's frozen realm, the Frost Sphere. In order to prevent their magic from repelling each other, Eve analyzed Eira's magic formula before activating it. Eira, as expected, could only be amazed at this skill.



''You........are seriously crazy.......''
Thank you for the compliment.



　Even as the two of them exchanged those words, they were already in a standoff. They were jittery and confrontational, measuring the distance between them.


　Then the battle between the two special-grade opponents began.
