　The boat is rocking, and the crew takes aim at the ship of Grougaria, which is chasing us and attacking us with its bow.

　I use the bow of the soft magic tree that Ryusei used to use.

　He pours magic power into the bow and arrows, relying on the memory of blood.

　This is the magic used by the man called Ryusei, who is even more outstanding among the archers of the Grugaria.

　It's a strange feeling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I should not have known how to do this before, but now I can do it through Norn who has taken in the blood of Ryusei.

　There was only the certainty that he could do it without reason, but with feeling.

　After I had put a tremendous amount of magic into the arrow, I removed my finger from the string with a single word.

　It seems that the archery technique that I have reproduced through practice is taking shape in a certain way.

　The arrow flew straight toward the ship I had aimed at earlier.

　The arrow hits the hull of the ship.

　The next moment, the surface of the water explodes.

　The attack by the meteor did not only destroy the ship where the arrow landed, but also affected the surface of the water on which the ship was floating, creating a large hole in an instant.

　The water of the river temporarily became hollowed out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The next moment, there was a large column of water.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The ship hit by the meteor burst into pieces, and the surface of the water below it changed, capsizing the other ships around it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was as if a great whirlpool had formed in the river.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The whirlpool swallowed up the floating vessels, and many of the Grougaria vessels that were present sank.

　It seems that the fleet, which had been working in unison due to their superior navigational skills, had been caught in the wrong place.

"This is ...... tremendous, isn't it, Mr. Alphonse?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, this is really great, Elvis. I mean, Meteor could have used this. I mean, it was the best thing that could have happened in hindsight that he was able to kill it before it attacked him on the water."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Indeed. It's frightening to think what would have happened if that attack had been directed at us."

　After actually trying out the attack method of [meteor], I realized once again how powerful it is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is great magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be terrible if such an attack had been made on a river with no escape.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A single blow could change the course of the battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But just because it is a powerful attack does not mean that it is without its drawbacks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It makes me very tired.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My whole body is so tired that I wonder if I'm using not only my magic power but also my physical strength when I attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Immediately after I activated the [meteor], I felt extremely tired, as if I had been fighting for days.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No wonder Meteor didn't use that attack in a row.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I gasp for air and sit down involuntarily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If nothing else, I was so tired that I wanted to just lie down and fall asleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Are you all right, Mr. Alphonse?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm fine. I'm just tired. I'm sure I'll be able to move after I rest. Let's get out of here while we still can. ......I guess we can go after the Orientals if we don't go downstream."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Understood. We'll keep an eye on the situation and make a decision.

　The water's turbulence had some effect on us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The ship in which the Barka mercenaries are riding is also shaking a lot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it was not so close to the point of impact that it capsized.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although I was unable to move, Elvis took over the command and moved the mercenaries, who were in a state of confusion, together.

　A dozen or so boats were heading downriver at once.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Grougalia ships that are supposed to follow them are still not back on their feet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They are rescuing capsized allies here and there, which should buy them some time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"[Meteor] or ....... I've got a good technique, but I'll have to think about when to use it. It's tiring, you get stuck, and you might get your allies involved."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to Norn, I learned some good magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But we may have to think about how to use it more than we expected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought and mumbled to myself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elvis, who was standing nearby, reacted to this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The attack you just did is called [Meteor], isn't it, Mr. Alphonse?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, that's right. Well, maybe it was really called something else. Norns sucked the blood of a famous archer's meteor in Grougalia. And it seems that when he did, he was able to learn the magic that his opponent could use."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... so you're saying that you've captured their power?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, what is it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No. That's a lot of power. But I can't help but be reminded of the past.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The old days?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes. There were others once. There were others who could take the power of others and use it themselves. A man named Naja, infamous as the enemy of the gods. I can't help but think of Nadja who led a band of mercenaries to steal magic from many noblemen and knights and then destroyed them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Naja?　Come to think of it, I might have heard of it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't mean to be presumptuous, but let me give you some advice, Mr. Alphonse. I believe your power is very great. But please do not allow yourself to be carried away by its power.

　Elvis usually puts on a cheerful face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He said this to me with an unusually serious face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nadja.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They say I'm like Nadja, the mercenary leader who used to be called the enemy of the gods.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I think I've heard of such a man before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The enemy of God who destroyed even the Holy City with many people in his path?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was happy to have such great power, when Elvis told me something I had never thought of.
