Gentlemen!　There's a bombing coming!　Once you're up in the air!　I'll carry Mr. Melcho on my back!


　As soon as the mount golem starts to prepare for bombing by sprinkling a lot of bomb golems, Daryl gives the order and everyone starts to wait in the sky. In the meantime, taking into account that Melcho can't fly well, Daryl lends his shoulder and goes up into the sky.


"Water.
Oh, yeah?
Can I have a water bottle?
'Oh!　Yes!


　Corrina, who was waiting in the sky as instructed by Daryl, was urged by Diniel to fumble with the magic bag on her back and take out a water bottle. I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you. I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you.


You're not going to be able to get it. Can I have some?
Come in.
Thank you!


　Korina, who also doubles as a baggage carrier, was about to hand the water bottle to Zeno as well. Then a roaring sound came from below, startling Korina, who dropped the canteen in her hand. Picking it up with a quick motion, Xeno splashed its contents on his own head and scratched up his silver hair with a rustle.


"Oh, so this is ... a good man who also drips water,


　Ignoring Xeno, who was spouting those words, Korina hurriedly looked down and saw a mounted golem slamming both fists into the ground and spewing lava. Then the ground exploded as the bomb golems that touched the lava spewing from the ground exploded one by one.


''Huh~. That's scary.''


　Corina let out a sigh as if she was distracted and then looked warily at the mounted golem on the ground. This is the first time that Korina is taking on the seventy levels, just like during the fire dragon battle. So since this was the first time for all of the mounted golems to act, her mind didn't calm down at all, even during the break.


''You all need to recover your mental strength while you're at it. From now on, there will be less and less room for you.''
Yes, sir.


　Corrina nodded at Daryl's atmosphere, which was so serious that she almost straightened her posture, folding her hands behind her back. Then she looked away from Daryl's back as he went to call out to Xeno.

　Of course, Korina and I have seen the divine table and have done our preparations, but it's still different when it comes to the actual battle. That's why you can rely on Daryl to give you precise instructions. However, in Korina's memory, Daryl should have only defeated the Mounted Golem once, but he was able to give general instructions to the extent that it seemed as if he had defeated it many times.


'Xeno-san. When the golems have been cut down to ten, please take turns with me to suppress the mounted golems. I'll tell you when it's time.''
Yes, sir.


　And I wonder if Xeno understands that, because this time, unlike the fire dragon battle, he was pretending to follow Daryl's instructions. This is the proof that Daryl's instructions are good.


(Great.........)


　Daryl's appearance appears to shine from Corina's point of view, as if he is in a different position than she is, after all. It's the same feeling I had when I saw searchers with unique skills, Leon and Weiss in the guild.


''Ah, Korina-san. From now on, indiscriminate heat rays will be flying at you, so please use your scorching rock robes to protect yourself from them. As long as you can support us as usual until the entire attack comes, we'll be fine.
Yes. Oh, do you want me to wipe you down?
Oh, excuse me. Thank you.
Excuse me.


　Corrina said to Daryl, who was dripping with sweat while refilling his armor with cooling ice magic stones, and took out a towel from her magic bag. Then, while floating, she goes behind Daryl and begins to wipe the sweat from around his neck firmly.

　She wipes her moist black hair with the towel and finally rubs the hanging dog ears to wipe away the sweat. Diniel, who had been watching Corina as she finished up by rubbing the dog ears, popped his hand.


'You've got a hand for that,'
Haha.....
'What?　What is it?


　Daryl, who was replenishing his armor with crunching ice magic stones, tilted his head at the two of them, who were making a knowing face for some reason.

　Then, after confirming that all of the bomb golems on the ground had finished exploding, Daryl took the initiative to get a distance from his allies before flying his Combat Cry to the mounted golem. With that, the midfield battle began.

　The golems scattered on the ground were fewer in number than before, but instead the movements of the mounted golems were as smooth as lubricated. That indicated an increase in the strain on Daryl.

　Corina knew that, so she was aware of the importance of recovery to Daryl, but that didn't mean she could forget to support Xeno. Even though there are fewer of them, there are still more than twenty golem groups, so if they get surrounded and get beaten up in a sack like they did earlier, they will die immediately.


(Yeah. Impossible.)


　Corina tried to fly her wishes to Daryl and Xeno while also restoring support to her attackers, but she felt she couldn't do it at this rate and gave up.

　The Mounted Golem Battle of the Infinite Circle, which she had seen earlier on the Kamidai. I was going to try to imitate Tsutomu's support recovery that I had seen in that fight, but I realized that I couldn't very well imitate it through the actual battle.

　In addition to supporting and recovering the tanks, he also supports the attackers, and the way he directs the whole team and even uses his attack skills is absurd in the eyes of Korina. Her mind is occupied with just managing the time of her support skills, and she also has to check how much damage her tank is getting hit from time to time. And if you fail to do either of those things, your tank will instantly collapse, leading to a crisis for the entire PT.

　They're not going to be able to imitate what Tsutomu is doing, and they're only able to provide the minimum amount of support and recovery. I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do, and I'm not going to be able to use my attack skills to the point where I forget the names of my skills.

　That Tsutomu's standing alone is astonishing from a healer's point of view, but Korina's mental power management and hate management were the most astonishing of them.

　If it was just mental power management, it was still possible for Korina to imitate it. Prayers could restore their own mental power with holy wishes and if it came down to it, there was a blue potion. Tsutomu had also used the blue potion often, so it looked like anyone could imitate it as long as they meditated on the cost. So Korina tried to imitate it at first.

　However, if she used more and more supportive recovery and attack skills like Tsutomu without thinking about it in a real battle, she would get too much hate and soon become a target for monsters. That was proven by Aldoret Crow's second and third army white mages, and the same was true of Korina the Prayer Master.

　Of course, that was partly because of the existence of an excellent tank that could take the hate, but even without that, it was clearly strange. When I asked Tsutomu about it, he said that he changed the mental power he put into his support skills to suit the case, but if he did that, the effect time would change as well. If that were to happen, the support management would not be possible.


(No, I can't. I'll do what I can do.)


　It's obvious that imitating Tsutomu would cause your head to get bogged down and support recovery would be neglected. It's better to focus on support recovery so that the tank doesn't collapse, and Tsutomu had told me beforehand to trust my standing.

　This PT member is very strong. It's incomparable to the PTs that were formed through guild mediation like before. The tank takes enough hate to keep the healer from being targeted, and if you don't cut off the support recovery, there's no sign of death. In my old PT, even if I did my support recovery perfectly, I was still in a state of death.

　Attackers don't have a sense of pride, and they don't let their curses fly. On the contrary, they seem to be concerned about the tank. In spite of this, he has enough offensive power to take down monsters and is very reliable.


(It would be more dangerous for me to be reckless.)


　Even if he didn't use multiple resuscitation prayers beforehand, relying on his intuition to sense the signs of death, or gulp down a fishy blue potion on his own, this PT was fine. Since she knew this was the case in the battle so far, Corina decided to work on restoring the tank's support.


'Defensive.'


　Chanting a skill that increases his VIT, Daryl catches the mounted golem's fist with his large shield and is blown wide open, rolling on the ground. But after crossing sixty levels and applying a defensive, Daryl's VIT goes up to A+, two levels higher than Garum's.

　With the assistance of that, it's risen another level, and the heavy armor Doren has created further enhances its sturdiness. Therefore, the mounted golem's fists and kicks are painful attacks, but they can be endured.

　However, being grabbed or stomped on would result in instant death, and the heat ray attack would also nearly kill you if you weren't prepared for it. This time it's not a problem because he has countermeasures against the heat ray attack, but if he doesn't have them, he'll be forced to fight very hard.

　He gets hit and blown up by the Mounted Golem, and when he hears Diniel's signal, he makes it stay there as long as he can, prepared to get hit somewhat. As Daryl acts, he deploys multiple healing wishes and blessed lights, and turns his skills to focus on supportive recovery.

　The heat ray attacks that are released even at times are not working on the red armor that Daryl is wearing. This is the best work that Doren has ever done, improving on his previous work and successfully replicating the effects of the Burning Rock Robe. In front of it, the power of the heat ray is reduced to nothing.

　Plus, Daryl's standing around against the mounted golem is great. If you're too close to the mounted golem, it will grab or stomp you, and if you're too far away, it'll do long-range rock strikes or golem generation. But Daryl always kept a mid-range distance to provoke attacks such as heat ray attacks and punching kicks.

　Of course, such attacks were powerful, but it was better than being subjected to instantaneous restraint attacks or long-range attacks that could involve their allies. That was what Garum had done in the battle against the mounted golem in the guild staff, and Daryl had seen it on the divine table and imitated it perfectly.

　Thanks to that, Daryl was able to stand steady against the mounted golems and it was very easy from Corina's point of view. But gradually, as the number of golems decreased, the mounted golems moved faster and faster.

　Daryl, who had been studying the Mounted Golem battle, was also getting tougher and tougher to wear out. Corrina is also assisting him with the blessed light and other things to help him get tired, but it's getting a little suspicious.

　Then suddenly a silver light shone from the side and enveloped the mounted golem.


'Get some rest!　Let's buy some time!


　The golem was still eleven, but Xeno tactfully unleashed a Combat Cry to attract the mounted golem. Daryl looked frozen in thought for a moment at the unexpected event, but he quickly pulled back as if he was out of breath and didn't have time to reply.

　The golems that Xeno had been attracting were quickly eradicated by the two attackers, and it was one on one. Zeno's expression was so full of confidence that it was hard to believe that he was facing off against a giant monster. He acts as if he doesn't feel any atmosphere of defeat.


(Maybe not.)


　But Corrina's premonition is sounding the alarm. Xeno's death. The future was being signaled.

　For Korina, the Mounted Golem was a first for her, so her hunch might be off. But as a nurse, Corina had tended to dozens of people whose death was no longer inevitable no matter what she did to them. On top of that, she has a hobby: watching Shintai. And the intuition she gained from experiencing actual battles where death was commonplace is a great strength.

　Besides, this was the first time that Xeno had ever faced a mounted golem relative to one. That made Corina's premonition more colorful, and it looked like the Grim Reaper's scythe was hanging around his neck.


'A wish for resurrection.'


　Without hesitation, Corina made a decision and joined hands without hesitation, an act that would lead to a waste of mental power and earned hate if Xeno didn't die.


'Let's go!


　Unaware of Kolina's actions, Xeno boldly went to the Mounted Golem.
