The only thing that could catch Ars's deformed eyes was a relative demon.
　Although it was unlikely that the twin eyes were covered by a veil of black wind and could be seen.
　In any case, the demons reacted by their actions. It wasn't fear, nor was it astonishment.

　The arms held out as if they were trying to embrace Ars, and they moved through the air in a supple line.
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　Is it a meaningful action?

　It was right after the arms were fully extended that the demon's reaction flipped to clear hostility.

　Ars's attack has already begun.
　Above the demon's head - ten sharp icicles sprouted from the ceiling. Although it is a rough-hewn form, the sharp edges are shot out all at once at the eyes of the demonーーa demon right below. The long pillar of ice, which was built with a thin layer of magic formula in the position it appeared, continued to grow to the ground at once. This can be said to be a small-scale version of the ice pillar group while 【Frozen Prison 《Despire Excute》 is a group of ice pillars. It could be said to be a degraded version with an arrangement rather than a completed magic.

　It was a quick job that didn't even show any signs of magic, but the demon's response was completed at the same time as the ejection.
　There was no major movement between them. Only the information dimension in magic was being attacked and defended.
　The ten icicles were stopped in mid-air with a snap. The icicles pushed into each other's bodies, scraping each other's bodies and letting out white breaths as they tried to move forward.

　The time difference between the manifestation and ejection of magic is close to zero.
　Thinking of Loki, who was unable to move, Ars kicked the ground quickly.

　Ars has some grasp of the demon's modus operandi. It is easy to guess if the demon is so systematic and specialized.
　Directional override and fixation.
　This characteristic was easier for the human side to understand than the demon side. It can be said that the theorizing of magic is the basis of the current magic technology. Even the expression "superscription," doesn't come out if it isn't informatized - and fixed, too.
　While using complete magic, somehow it remains in the category of directionality, a category of understanding on the human side.

　Of course, this characteristic would apply to more than just magic. It should also be able to interfere with the direction in which an object is moved - we can rephrase it as directional here - as well.
　That one point equates to a supernatural that is difficult for Ars to understand.

(A troubling power, to be sure. But when it comes to interfering with magical power, I have no intention of losing either.

　The icicle released by Ars as his first move is not completed as magic, but continues to repeat (loop) the process of stretching by incorporating a progressive program into its constituent information. This means that the information, including the directional information, is automatically rewritten.
　It's a clichéd trick that Ars would immediately notice. It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

　Therefore, even if you hit this magic to 【Selketo】 who was on the upper floor, you wouldn't get much of an effect. It is overwhelmingly insufficient in power to inflict injuries.

　However, this demon in the form of Felinella is different. The black wind like dress it wears has almost no physical resistance. It's the most dangerous entity of all.
　That's why it's "oriented". It avoids any entity that harms it. Do you think it's similar to walking with the wind knocked out of you?

　This is a byproduct of the predation by the [Gura Eater], Ars understood at this time.
　The act of eating, the act of eating, has a consequence, a price. In other words, it's magic power. Once taken in, magic power is analyzed at the same time as replacement. This seems to be limited to within Ars's knowledge, though.
　Above all, the predation by the current [Gura Eater] had no small effect on the main body that was the source of the generation. It seems to be connected to not only predation within the range that can be sensed, but also predation on the main body.
　After understanding that this is very different from the previous [Gura Eater], I'll push that interest in the first place.

　I snap the wrist of the free one that was linking its orientation with the ice pillar.
　In one fell swoop, breaking through the wall of air that had been blocking their progress, the icicle sticks to the ground as they scrape each other's bodies. The messy angles, like falling steel, connected the icicles from floor to ceiling.

　The demons ducked all of those icicles that rained down like they were overlapping, with movements that didn't feel like they were of any substance.
　The lack of response like smoke.
　However, it was successful in the sense that it caught them by surprise.

　Although a direct hit was avoided, the demons whose bodies were entangled in the overlapping icicles were driven into a small gap. Restrained by the ice pillar, the demon was unable to move and let out a furious and strange cry.
　The vibrations of the air seemed to echo directly into the brain.
　Would it be similar to the replacement system in the training grounds? An intense pain could be felt in his brain.

　The strange, almost tinnitus-like sound was instantly forced to stop by the last icicle that was knocked down.
　The lagging icicle arose from overhead and fell straight to the demon's head.

　As expected, I should say.
　The icepillar was ripped into four pieces from the center and pierced the ground in all directions to avoid the demon.

　
　At this level, Ars's attacking hand would not relax. His left hand is already shaped like a claw. Ars thrust it out while walking, aiming at the demon.
　The distortion that occurred in space was rectangular like a square timber.

　The space cut to the thickness of a log was one that could blow a person's head off with a single blow.
　At the same time as Ars's thrust, the space that surfaced with the momentum of a breaking hammer kicked up the demon's jaw.
　The jaw is shattered, and fine pieces of ceramic-like debris dance around. The head is turned upside down to the point where it looks as if its neck is going to sag....

(You're responding far too quickly.)

　This was badly predicted by Ars, and he was right. This was not the first time he had encountered a demon that interfered with directionality.
　However, there is a difference in degree.
　If the rate is as high as this, no matter how much room there is to take advantage of it, there is no way they can always exceed it. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say about it.

　It's a few moves away from being able to take advantage of them.
　According to Ars's expectations, there should be four more attacks to spare. Dealing with the current spatial interference magic was like being sentenced to a cessation.

　The space that was launched jumped up the jaw wide, but immediately after the impact, the entire space was cut off in both directions. The phenomenon that could even create an illusion of overlapping scenery was restored as the bisected magic blended into space.

　It's no longer about dealing with it or anything else.

(To this point, it's growth.)

　This demon is learning as this one exposes its hand.
　A few questions descend into Ars's brain for a moment.
　The constituent requirements of a magic that is not like a demon.
　The shape of the human shape.
　Finally, "learning".

　The demons inside the deposit were somehow different from the demons outside the deposit from the beginning. In the first place, there was no small amount of discomfort in the action of taking away only her while Kalia, Illumina, and other students selected from the academy, who were of the same rank as Felinella, were nearby. Much about the demons is unexplored and must be told from experience.
　It's not completely untrue, but that doesn't mean that they would bother to take her away, who was alive at that point in time.......

(It takes a human........)

　Just like there is more than one way to become stronger, the path to evolution - the next stage - for a demon might not necessarily be all about good quality magic power.
　There is no doubt that this demon is already classified as a high rate. The means I took to advance beyond that.
　Whether it was limited to this individual is another thing.

　The same move wouldn't work anymore if it learned and was dealt with instantly.

(You're beginning to understand the magic over here I can't spend extra time on it.

　Ars turned his attention once to the AWR at hand. There was no more circuitry leading to the magical formula from the broken chain.
　The dagger and the chain, even though they were of the same quality, did not have the characteristics suitable for handling remotely, unlike Alice's golden spear and wheel relationship.

　When I think about it, I even feel as if the dagger I hold has returned to its original role. It's no longer sufficient in constructing magic, but in applying physical slashes, that may be its essence.
　It's not as long as a sword, but it could make up for it as much as possible through magic manipulation.
