59 51. Competitive Battle (2)




 We entered the classroom near the corridor where we had transitioned and were discussing the matter.

''Then let's go with Elaire at the vanguard, me at the middle, and Renee at the rear, as we talked about before.

 I say so, and bring out Rowga. The rules of this rivalry are that if you beat the squad leader, you win, but the problem is this. But the problem is this: the badge on my chest, the squad leader badge. In fact, if it's taken away, we lose. So the whole squad has to protect the leader (badge). When I look at the badge.

''We have to protect this~. As I recall, the group that was taken is forced to be transferred outside the labyrinth, right?
 
 And Renee goes to look at the squad leader's batch, too.

'Yeah, and that's true even if everyone is wounded beyond a certain point. I believe it was if they decided it was a fatal wound?

I think that's true. Any wound can be healed when you get out of the maze, and if it's close to death, you're forced to move out of the maze. Besides, the time limit is about two hours, right? And if the remaining squad doesn't keep at least one of them in the meantime, it's like they'll be treated as losers if they stay until the end.

 And as me and Renee were talking, Elea

"The enemy is coming!

 I say. At that moment, the door to the classroom was broken down and he walked in.

I got it! Zanha!

 And Shizuku comes in and fires a slash. Shit! All of a sudden you guys! We were separated by Elair, me, and Renee to avoid the slash. There.

Hmph!

 And Burdon, swinging a large shield from behind him. Where did he come in! We manage to avoid it, but Vardon closes in, waving his shield around. I'm going to pull Renee behind me, channel her magic into Lohga, and then...

"Water magic spiral lancer!

 I grant Rowga a swirling water and thrust it at Bardon. But when Vardon notices this, he stops wielding his shield and prevents my attack with his original use. Moreover, I was able to withstand it. I thought it was going to blow up.

 In the meantime, Elea and Shizuku are hitting each other pretty fast. The moment I managed to get in to help.

You don't look like a stranger!

 And Kate suddenly appears in front of me. Nah! After Burdon and Kate... transference magic! It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on it. And then she swings the knife at my neck.

''Oh shit!''

 I quickly bend my upper body backwards as fast as I can. I manage to avoid the knife, but a little blood flows from my throat. I thought I'd dodged it, but....

Why do you look so strange when you're out of it? It's easy. It's just a matter of stretching the tip a little bit with magic.

 At this close range, Kate's got the advantage with the knife? I'm doing my best to prevent it with my Rowga. Besides.

Uh-oh!

 Bardon is relentlessly trying to get to Renee. Lane is barely avoiding it, but he's being pushed around at this rate. It looks like Elea can't seem to stay away from Cizk either.

'Tsk! Water Magic Waterwall!

 I make a wall of water appear around the squad members. And

We're gonna regroup!

 I'm going to punch the floor! I poke Loga as hard as I can and there's a hole in the ground, so it's me, Renee, and Elaire down there in that order. I look around to make sure no one is there. And from the top.

Hmph!

 Bardon flies in. d*mn, he's persistent! And then Shizuku comes down and slashes at you.

"Cut through it, Muramasa!

 I block Shizuku's sword with Rowga. In the meantime, Kate also slashes at me. ........I haven't seen Emma since a while ago, where is she? Emma would be doing the shifting magic, so she should be in a visible position.

''d*mn, that's impressive. Even if me and Shizuku-san attacked it, we wouldn't be able to kill it.

 We manage to hold out and keep our distance. Right now, Elea is protecting Lane and fighting Bardon for me. All I have to do is take these two down.

 As me, Kate, and Shizuku look at each other, a high-speed stone bullet is fired from behind me and attacks Kate and her friends. I don't need to see this to know. It's Lane!

Tsk!

 As Kate and the others avoid the stone bullets, I'm going to use my magic to chase them away.

Wind Magic Wind Blaster.

 He unleashes a huge mass of wind on Kate and her friends. Kate and her friends narrowly avoid it, but this magic doesn't end there. The moment it hits the ground, it creates a tornado around it. They are caught in it and blown away, and Kate and her friends hit the wall.

 I invoke the Direct Method Body Strengthening and close in on Kate, and

What do you want to do now?

 The spear is held against his throat. It's a position where the spear will stab you in the throat if you move at all.

The actuality of this is that it's a very good thing. It's as good as it gets, Rei.

 As she said this, Kate took the batch on her chest and was about to hand it to me at that moment.

Nah!

Gawd!

 Kate's arm is cut off by a blade of water, and then the water whip takes her arm with it. Is the magic coming out of nothing? As I watched, Malfoy appeared from there.

'Kate!'

Kate!

 Just as Emma, who has moved in with Shizuku and her transition magic, is about to approach Kate, Malfoy's cronies suddenly appear behind the two of them. How did they show up! And I swing my sword down. I move in a straight line and cover for Emma. Ugh, I got cut a little bit, but that's about it!

Huh!

 Then he stabbed his cronies with a wax gourd. The cronies disappeared, screaming. As for Shizuku, it seems that Vardon prevented him from doing so. Then he is cut down by Shizuku and disappears.

"d*mn, they're dumbasses. Well, let's call it good because I got the batch.

 And Malfoy's laughing at me. Then Kate's squad starts to glow blue and white. It's because they've taken a batch. They all disappear as it is.

"Ray, are you okay?

 And he worries about where Elea was cut. I answer that it was a graze and turn to Malfoy.

'How did you show up, Malfoy?'

'Oh? Why should I tell you about it? Keep your pants on.

 Malfoy said and disappeared again. I thrust the Llouga into the place where Malfoy was, but there was no response. That bastard," he says, "if I see him again, I'm going to punch him. Next time I see him, I'll punch him in the face.
