Huh?

　I was thrown away from the state where we were in a contest of strength by being swung around with tremendous force. I frowned at Nair's exclamation and stared at Rose, who was about to swing her fist at me in mid-air.

"Don't tell me that the Commander also has healing magic bullets ......!"

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

"Not surprising, huh?　It's faster to throw them than to fire them normally.

"...... indeed!"

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

I think it's just you guys!

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

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

"Neah!　Concentrate on your left arm to resist blows!

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

Yes!

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

　The left arm, which is not covered by the cage, is covered with a spell pattern to make it resistant to blows.

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

　Now, both arms can defend against Rose's attacks!　All that remains is to see how many of my attacks will pass!

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

　Clenching his right fist tightly, he fires a shot at Rose, but it is easily knocked away.

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

"If you keep doing the same thing over and over again, your fists will never reach me, even after all these years!

"!　...... is that the second magic?

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

"You wouldn't use the same move so many times ......!"

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

"Mugg, how is it possible to break something just as it's being healed? ......?"

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

　The attack is prevented, but this will not keep Nair for long.

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

　We have no choice but to go on the offensive!

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

　He tries to step into the pocket at once, but is blocked by a slamming elbow from the side, forcing him to defend himself with his left arm.

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

"Whoa too ......!"

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

　I was forced back without question, and the next moment I looked up, Rose was grabbing me by the chest of my clothes as if to restrain me.

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

"I guess there's a limit to how many attacks you can take with that magic..."

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

"Ugh ......!"

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

　No. I'm completely outmatched on the first move.

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

　Even if I try to attack, I will be crushed before I can do so, and I will be left on the defensive.

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

　I try to release my collar, but Rose's restraints do not come off so easily, and I can only let out a cry of anguish.

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

"...... I'm going to give it to you a little harder. You're going to have to endure."

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

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

"What the f*ck, b*tc*? ......"

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

　As soon as I made a quick decision to pull Nair away from me, Rose let go of my collar as if to push me away and slammed me with a centrifugal kick to the side.

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

　I was barely able to defend myself with my basket hand, but the resistance spells cast on Nair shattered in an instant, and the impact I couldn't catch blew my body wide open.

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

"...... ugh!"

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

　My vision shifts in an instant.

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

　I was hit by a huge explosion.　If I don't do something, I'm going to crash into the trees outside the training ground!　I can't play human pinball at this rate!

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

　Frowning at the intense pain torturing his body, he slams his right back fist against the tree to offset the impact.

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

"Uh-oh!"

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

　He manages to hit the ground, while slamming into the trees around the training ground.

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

　He regulates his ragged breathing and applies healing magic.

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

　How far have I been blown away ......?　I can't see the direction of the training ground because of the trees.

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

　I mean, how much of a tremendous kick is that monstrous monster going to give me ......!　If it weren't for me, you'd be in big trouble!

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

"Gah, gah, gah! ......

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

　Even breathing is painful, but I'm alive.

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

　Thanks to Nair's magic and the basket hand, I have not been seriously injured.

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

　Minor injuries are quickly healed with healing magic.

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

　My heart remains unbroken - I can still fight.

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

"......Ah, shit, it's been so long since I've been hit like this. ......"

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

　Rose beat me up a lot as part of my training to learn evasion, but I guess she took it easy on me.

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

　And now he's attacking me with more force than before, if not full force.

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

　That means I've grown up enough to use that much power.

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

"But I don't like the idea of just letting them get away with it. ......!"

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

　I can't stay in the same position and I'm not so innocent that I'll give up just because of this.

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

　I'm going to do it, and I'm going to try everything I can. ......!

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

"What I'm going to do is the same ......"

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

　I always found my way in the fight.

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

　When I recovered from the battle with healing magic, I stood up and heard something like a wind noise coming from the direction where the training ground would be.

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

"What is it?"

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

　I have a bad feeling about the unidentified sound.

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

　I was stunned to see it falling from over my head as if it was weaving its way through the trees.

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

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!　No way!

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

　Several trees were pulled out from their roots.

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

　The range of the attack was so unreasonable and unrestrained that even I, as a quintessential player, was screaming and holding my fist in the air.

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

I was so unreasonably and unrestrainedly attacked at such a range that I was screaming and holding my fists.

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

　I was actually wondering how strong Rose-san, Usato's master, was.

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

　But I didn't think he was strong enough to make Usato do nothing and beat him up unilaterally.

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

　That was the first healing wizard I tried to rely on in this kingdom. The one whom Usato trusts and fears the most.

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

"Hey, hey Amako. I just heard a loud sound that I don't think was a human being being kicked. ...... and, shouldn't you stop it?"

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

　Frana, who had just seen Usato get kicked by Rose and disappear into the woods, shook her head and pointed into the woods.

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

"I think he's okay."

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

"No, no!　Did you hear that?　That was a gabargo!　That's not a sound you want to hear coming from a man!

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

"I'm sure he's protected by his basket hand, and I'm sure Usato has softened the impact, so he didn't do that much damage."

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

That's not the point!

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

　I know that Usato can do something like that, even though I couldn't follow it with my eyes.

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

"Oh, my definition of human being is about to collapse. ....... Can a human being move like that?　Suzune was also moving in a perverted way, but Usato and Rose-san have an unreasonableness that I don't understand. ......

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

　I laugh at Frana, who holds her head in her hands and mumbles something like that.

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

　Well, anyone who doesn't know Usato would be like this. ...... No, to tell the truth, I'm only calm because Frana is even more surprised than I am.

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

"Speaking of which, have you stopped casting illusions on yourself?"

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

"I feel so empty doing it myself. ....... I've been shown more unrealistic scenes than unrealistic illusions. ......

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

Yes, yes.

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

　When Usato and Ms. Rose started fighting, Frana, who saw the shocking scene, thought she was being shown an illusion and cast an illusion spell on herself, but ...... the result was not so good.

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

"You know, if Amako isn't too surprised, does that mean Usato is doing the same kind of thing over and over again?"

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

"Yes. He is always reckless.

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

"...... aren't you worried?"

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

　Of course, you must be worried.

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

　But I have been on this journey with him, and I know him better than anyone else.

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

"I believe in you, Usato. Besides, he is not the kind of person who would break down so easily."

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

"...... haha, otherwise you wouldn't be able to resist my illusion magic in its bare state."

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

"Yeah?"

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

　What's he talking about?　Well, never mind.

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

　He senses that Usato has done something wrong and turns his attention to Mr. Rose.

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

　After kicking him with unusual force, Rose-san is standing at the edge of the training ground, staring at the far end of the woods.

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

　Muttering something like that, Rose put her hands on the nearest tree and pulled it out with all her might,.......

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

　The behavior was so out of the ordinary that it left not only Frana but also me speechless.

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

"He pulled the tree out, smashed it and threw it."

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

　After crushing the tree to just the right size with her bare hands, Rose grabbed the splintered log with one hand and tossed it carelessly.

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

　The tree was thrown into the forest where not even Usato could be seen, and after a few seconds, Usato's scream and the high-pitched sound of something being popped with a steel rod could be heard.

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

　Unbelievably, he seems to have predicted Usato's position and threw the tree.

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

"Hey, Amako. I'm going to ask you one more time, Usato ......, are you okay?"

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

"It might be a ...... bad idea."

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

　Maybe I underestimated him a little.

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

　I have often heard that an apprentice is like his master, and Ms. Rose was no exception.

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

　No, rather, she was a person who acted more outrageous than Usato.

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

She was a very good person.

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

"That devil devil, he's full of shit!"

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

　He pushes straight ahead to the training ground, smashing logs with his fists as they rain down on him.

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

　Thanks to him, there was no time to rest!

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

Woohoo!

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

　As he is about to relax, he almost hits the log directly, but he quickly releases his healing burst palm and spins to the side to avoid it by accelerating.

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

　He kneels down on the ground and regulates his breathing on the spot in order to assess the situation.

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

"Huh. ...... I didn't expect the Healing Burst Palm to be useful here."

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

　It is a technique that can be used for evasion, defense, and recovery, but it is quite useful in that it can respond to an attack like this that cannot be dealt with in time by its own movement alone.

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

　However, it is useless to use a half-hearted evasion in front of Rose.

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

　Even if you avoid the attack with the healing burst palm, the follow-up attack will hit you with a tremendous reaction speed.

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

"...... release of magic power?"

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

　Wait a minute, can't we use this well?

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

　If the acceleration of the release of magic power can be used for emergency evasion, maybe it can be used to accelerate the attack.

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

　As logs are falling down around me with great force, I am absorbed in my thoughts.

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

　Once I find a possibility, all I have to do is to pull it together.

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

"In the first place, why do I think that the Healing Burst Palm is a technique that can only be performed with the palm?

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

　This cage given to me by Mr. Farga not only has the property of unparalleled firmness, but also assists me in manipulating my magic power. Then I should be able to release the healing burst palm from the arm covered by the cage, the back of my hand, or even from my fingers.

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

　Concentrating on my right arm cage, I release magic power from the side of the arm covered by the cage in the same way as the Healing Burst Palm.

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

"Whoa!"

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

　With the same sound as the bursting palm, the magic power bursts out from the side of his arm and he almost loses his balance.

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

　It is not impossible. I'm not used to it, and I'm not able to control the force, but it's more than enough for now.

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

　The corners of my mouth naturally turn up.

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

　The battle that had seemed hopeless now had a glimmer of hope.

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

"Usato!

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

"Hm?"

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

　I looked up when I heard a shout from overhead, and saw Nair, in owl form, descending toward me at a tremendous speed.

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

　Quickly, I caught her with both hands, and she jumped on my shoulder, her anger evident.

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

"You!　Stop throwing me overboard at the first sign of danger!　I can protect myself too!"

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

"...... Oh, I'm sorry. You're right, you've been fighting with me too.

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

　He is taken aback by Nair's words for a moment, then smiles.

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

"Nair, let's go!"

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

"What are the odds?　What's the point in trying any harder?"

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

"I've come up with a new way to fight. I call it the Third Fighting Technique !

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

"...... at least call it the Healing Accelerator Fist. It's so lame it's not even funny."

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

　I think ...... is cool.

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

　Rose seems to have stopped throwing logs too, as if she saw Nair flying toward me.

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

　She can't attack the place in a way that would involve Nair, either.

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

"Come on, let's give it our all, for real. I'll give it my all, too.

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

　I'm going to give Rose a blow, without regard to my magical power and without regard to anything else.

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

　With this determination, I ran out in the direction where I knew Rose would be waiting for me.
