88-Episode 82: The Sage's Sister Grows Up




 The ace of Chapter 4, Fanbro, is down.
 He's the brains of the enemy.
 If his head gets crushed (and it will), the party naturally falls apart.

 Everyone cheers.
 Everyone was convinced we were going to win.
 But I'm not letting up.

'Not yet!

 The faces of my friends freeze as they smile.
 With one word from me, they realize the game isn't over.
 It's Sarasa, I notice.

 I start counting the parties in Chapter 4 with my eyes.

'There's not one!'

[Seeker].

 Rowan looked around.
 He searched for a sign.

 I don't hear a single noise.
 Probably the magic of the [Searcher (Seeker)].
 She's using 【Anxiousness Blocker】 and 【Vanishing Body】.
 If you use two spells, it's possible to completely disappear from sight.

 Sarasa's eyes glow blue-white.
 She activated 【Future Vision】.
 But even she can't capture the figure.

 It was Fanbro who laughed at the girl with 【Future Vision】 who was upset.

 Apparently it was only a few moments before she lost consciousness.

''Kukku........ It's useless. You can't find her with [Future Vision].

What?

It's true that [Future Vision] is not a panacea. That's something I understand. I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on. That is 【Dense Fog】 and 【Searcher】 magic.

What the hell is that...?

 Cecil gulped down a gulp.

'[Future vision] is 'seeing'. That's why it's only possible to capture it in images. To put it simply.


 You can't see the invisible (I wish I could)!


 Fanbro laughed.

''We've lost this game. But it's time to take a shot at them!

 It's no use.
 I was going to leave everything to Sheila, but........
 Should we use [Detection]?

There's no need, my brother.

 Hmm?

 Sheila kneads her magic.
 It's also to the extreme.

''If you can't see it, then just attack in all directions!

 I activated the magic.

 [Earth God, Thousand Blades]!

 The magic power struck.
 The moment it radiated out, the ground rose up.
 What appeared were countless spears.
 Blades made of stone and earth with shining tips fly out.

 All directions!
 It filled the circular field.

''Phew!''

 I hear him scream.
 He must have lost his concentration on magic.
 The [Searcher] appeared.
 A spear is stuck in his arm.
 The [Poison granting] knife was dropped with a pop.

 The one who was at that side was Sarasa.

 The eyes behind the glasses widen widely.
 I hurriedly took a step away from her.

''Bah, that's stupid........ [Earth God, Senbane]........

 That is to say, magic with the help of an earth god.
 Up to advanced magic, it's magic that borrows the power of a spirit.
 There is also magic that uses the spirit itself.

 However, magic that borrowed the power of a god does not exist in magic below the advanced level.

 In other words, what Sheila used was the highest level of magic.
 It was a magic that was even considered legendary in the current Galveer.


''Sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, sa.


 The audience screamed.
 It was somewhat of a scream.

'No way...'
I must be dreaming.
How many points do you have in your collection?
The theory is that it's in the millions.
Millions!

 Surprises can be heard leaking out.

''Top level magic........''
Oh no...
There's no way you can win.

 Knowing this fact, the remaining members of Branch 4 lost the will to fight.
 They gulped and dropped their paragraphs.
 Fanbro also froze and said nothing more.

''It's a match. Winner, Branch 5!

 No one moves.
 Seeing this situation, the referees came forward as the winner.
 They show their overwhelming power and make it through to the semifinals.
 The crowd's expectations are high.

'Could it be........'
Yeah. Maybe we can win, right?
Branch 5, go for it!
'I'm rooting for you. Beat our school!

 They cheered.
 It wasn't just the local aristocracy and people.
 Even guests from other countries encouraged us and applauded us.
 Everyone was intoxicated by our overwhelming strength.

'Good luck! Sis!

 Is it a child's voice?
 One of the loudest voices in the world.
 Sheila noticed and turned around.
 When she spotted a girl with a stuffed animal, her sister gave her a small wave.
 Her cute gesture made me cheer even more.

 Finally, she comes back to me.

'Good job, Sheila.'

 I stroked my beautiful hair and worked it.
 He closed his eyes a little ticklishly.
 Moistening, he popped his cheeks.

''Kukuk....''

 I could hear him laughing behind me.
 Fangbro, who should have been a term and a loser, was laughing.

'After Ravench, big brother (sic)? You haven't changed, Sheila. You are, after all, dependent on someone else for your survival.

'It's not natural! Sheila is only 11 years old--

 Hearing Fanbro's words, Cecil countered.
 But it was Sheila who interrupted him in the middle.

'I think you're right, Fambro.

..........

But someday... I'll get them back. My friends.... And my brother, who is irreplaceable...

 He responded with a strong look in his eyes.
 At that will, Fanbro could only cluck his tongue.
 He turned his eyes against the eyes with an unexpected miracle called [Future Vision].
 He turned on his heel and left the field alone.

 There was no one to help him with his heartbreak.
