In the event that you are not prepared for this, you can be launched into the sky by a dragon and almost faint from the tremendous pressure of the ascent,────, but as soon as the monster approaches in front of you, you will not be able to faint.

"Black Lightning".
"Parii.

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's a good idea.
　The moment I caught it with my sword, it pushed me with tremendous pressure and almost blew me away, but I barely pushed it back and managed to repel the lightning.

　Immediately after I flicked it, the lightning that struck the plain in the distance made a huge hole in the ground.
　If I took even the slightest bite of that thing, my body would be blown apart in an instant.
　On the contrary, even if this dragon that carried me into the sky takes a hit, I will fall helplessly from this far above the sky.

"Black Lightning".

　So, ──── will never be able to hurt this dragon.

　In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, there are a few things you can do.
　In the face of such a dragon, the monster mercilessly strikes with a powerful thunderbolt.

"Parry!

　I crawled on the dragon's back with a dying heart and swung the Black Sword as hard as I could.
　If I accelerate while using my full power of [Strengthen Body], I will somehow make it in time.

　But just as I'm relieved to drop one thunderbolt, the monster piles on the next attack.
　The monster is about to unleash more of that powerful lightning in rapid succession.

　The lightning spreads across the sky in an instant.

　──── This is not good.

　The moment you think that, it's unleashed all at once.

『『『『『『 black lightning』』』』』』

　The moment it struck, I knew.
　It's definitely not in my power to stop it.
　There was nothing I could do but wait for it to burn me.
　My mind went blank, and I immediately felt like I was going to die.

　But ────

　Somehow, before I could despair, my body moved.

"Parry.

　And then, as if to avoid us, lightning struck me in the side.

"What the ...... is ......?

　I wondered.
　I noticed that I seemed to be swinging my sword.
　But it wasn't a conscious movement.
　But it was a familiar movement.
　I remembered the feeling.

　It's more like ......, but I can't forget it.
　This was the sensation of training with Gilbert that I had been repeating over and over before I left for Mithra.


　Gilbert's spears were sharp.
　It would be impossible to hit him in time if I could see him and hit him properly.

　So, with a minimum of movement, just touch it instead of striking it with force.
　There is no need to hit it with all your might.


　You can touch it slightly with your sword and shift the angle of the incoming spear just a little bit.
　In other words, that's all you could do,......, but it was enough to prevent his spear.

『『『『『『 black lightning』』』』』』

　That monster unleashes a huge thunder with a roar.
　It is truly terrifying.
　If you look at it head-on, you will see a scene that seems like the end of the world.
　Even more so when you are hit by it in the unstable sky.
　The black lightning that covers and burns us in an instant that we can't even blink can only be described as a threat.
　In addition, I can see an even bigger one coming.

　But ────

　──── When you think about it, Gilbert's spear is much faster.

"Parry.

　I remembered what it felt like to flip Gilbert's spear, and I flicked the lightning that the monster had unleashed.
　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.

"'Black Lightning'...
"Parry!

　The monster continues to fire lightning at me without pausing for breath.
　But I flicked off all the lightning as if I were out of time.
　I didn't need any strength at all, even though I had struggled so much just now.
　I can flip and deflect the powerful lightning that comes at me one after another as easily as if I were dealing with feathers.

　You don't need to take it head on, just deflect it (・・・・・・・・).
　It's a great way to get the most out of your time and money.

　──── What the hell, was this what I was supposed to do?

　The monster shoots more powerful lightning at me like I'm crazy, but ────

『『『『『『 black lightning 』』』』』』
"Palii.

　I carefully assessed the trajectory of each and every thunderbolt as it flew by.
　I'm not sure if you're a fan of this kind of thing, but I think it's a great idea.

　...... It was truly a tremendous sight.
　It's a great way to get the most out of your business.

　Even a single strike of that lightning would be the end, and I was nervous.
　But no matter how strong the monster's attack is, it doesn't matter as long as you can deflect it and drop it on a distant mountain or plain.
　This way, no matter how many thunderbolts fly at you, you won't be afraid of them anymore.

　...... It is much scarier to be calm and look down.
　I've been trying to avoid looking down for a while now, but there's a limit.
　It seems that the dragon (Lara) is smart and is flying carefully so as not to shake me off, but the speed at which it is flying is unbelievable.
　Every time the dragon makes a big turn in the sky, I feel like I'm going to faint.

　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it. ......

But ............ there's no end to it.

　That monster is incredibly tough.
　If you're not sure what you're looking for, you can always ask for help.


　Lara's breath burned so vigorously that the smell of the monster's flesh burning filled the sky, and yet it didn't seem to have much effect.

How can I defeat this thing?

　I'm not sure what to make of this.
　In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.
　I'm sure you'll be able to understand why.

I'm not sure.

　I'm sure you'll be able to understand why.
　Then, the thick flesh covering the bones was cut into large chunks and flew into the air. ────

"──── gua

　When Lara saw this, she immediately unleashed a high-heat breath that turned the meat into a giant lump of charcoal.

"Is that ────?

　I glanced fearfully in the direction below where the film of light had flown, and saw a blonde woman in familiar silver armor running up into the sky at great speed.
　She seemed to have created countless small "light shields" and was using them as footholds as she ran up.
The regularity with which the plates of light were lined up was like a 'staircase of light'.

　It's a good idea to take a look at the website to see if you can find anything that might help you.

"──── Noor-dono. I'm sorry I'm late.
Inez. You're here?

　The person who looked familiar to me was also Ines.

Thank God. I couldn't have done it alone.
──── Maybe you're right. I'll join you on Linneburg's orders, but I need a little insurance. Can you fly a little higher?
"No, I can't talk to this dragon, okay?　No, I can't talk to this dragon. ...... I can't help you without Rollo.
...... Oh, well. Then we have no choice.

　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

　──── At that moment, I almost fainted.

　It's not good.
　I'm so scared.
　It's not just about falling, it's about watching someone fall from a great height.

　──── No, no.
　Now is not the time to be thinking about that.
　While I'm feeling dizzy, she's falling fast.
　I have to save her now.
　But how?
　As I'm confused by the sudden situation.

"Divine Shield.



　Inez created a huge "shield of light" below her and landed on it as if nothing had happened.

　At first, I was relieved.

　...... I see.
　I guess I didn't have to worry about that.
　I would have preferred that you had told me first, as it would have been bad for my heart.

That's ──── the floor.

　But I soon forgot that feeling.
　When I looked again, I saw an astonishing sight below me.
　The shield that Inez had created separated the ground from the sky, and a huge floor that seemed to cover the entire city of Mithra appeared in an instant.
　It was a kind of divine floor, like a glittering stage.

　In the event that you have any questions regarding where by and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

"Wow, ......, that's some flooring right there. I didn't know you could do that.
I'm sorry, but we're going to be doing this for a while. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to do this for a while. I can't have that monster's magic on the ground right now.
Yeah, this is much better for me.

　Inez says she's sorry, but .......
　To be honest, it helps a lot.
　Not having to worry about falling from the sky to the ground is a big deal.
　If I had to say one thing, I'd say that I'd like to see what's underneath a bit transparent, but ...... I don't think that's too extravagant.

...... I see. And I forgot to mention that there are no reinforcements other than me. I forgot to mention that I don't have any other reinforcements, so it's just the two of us against it.
Enough said.　And not just the two of us. Lara will be there too.
"...... I see.

　Inez laughed a little.

──── Here it comes.

　The monster, which had lost part of its body and lost its balance, was about to unleash its magic again.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.
　The countless arms it lost have grown back, and it still has some flesh left, and it seems to be in good health.

I'm sure you'll be fine.　I'm not sure I'd be able to handle my own defense if I had to scrape the flesh off that thing while stretching this floor.
"Oh, I'll leave it to you then. I can handle the thunder of that monster.
...... I see. I'll take care of it.

　In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find it on the web.

『『『『『『 black lightning 』』』』』』

　But the horrible feeling doesn't happen anymore.



"Parry.

　A few minutes ago, I was in a hurry to do something on my own, but now I have Ines.
　It's a bit shameful to say that I'm relying on her, but ...... still, my anxiety has almost disappeared just because she (Ines) came.

　I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good idea. ...... The fact that Ines, who always has a stern expression on her face, is smiling like that suggests that she has a lot of time on her hands.
　I was in such a hurry just a moment ago.
　You can see Gilbert's spear and feel a little bit stronger. ...... I believe she was a maid or something at Lean's house, but seeing how strong she is, I think I still need to get stronger. I'm not sure.

[Divine Shield]
"──── gua

　And so, Inez shaves the flesh, Lara burns the flesh, and I just play with the lightning.

　Soon we had our division.
　After Inez joined us, the flesh that was covered by the bones was shaved off in an interesting way.
　I was overwhelmed by the sight as I shot the countless black thunderbolts that came at me one by one.

　The scene around me is so horrific that it's hard to believe it's from this world, but I only have to do one thing.
　Just play what comes.
　I was worried when I didn't know what to do, but now that I know what to do, it's just work.

　And ────

『『『『『『 black lightning 』』』』』』
Parisi.

　──── I've gotten used to that process.

　The monster seemed to be reverting back to its original "bones" as Lara and Inez's attacks began to chip away at its flesh.
