Chapter 302 – Guardian Force (5)

Lizardman suddenly transformed.
No, is it like unstable evolution?

For now, there was no time to examine the facts one by one.
The top priority was to stop that dragon that was destroying the village by spewing Magi Breath from its mouth right away.

“My sister, please protect the monsters who can’t fight here.”

“Huh? Wouldn’t it be better for my sister to go and fight?”

“Hmm…”

It’s a crisis situation, but in a way, it’s an opportunity.
A chance to show off your skills and win the trust of monsters.

-I thought it would be better to show the monsters how I solved it myself.

-Um… I see. Then I will be here

“Kill that Lizardman before the village is further destroyed. All who can fight, follow me!”

Shouted at the monsters.

“”Yes!!””

The monsters shouted vigorously.

“Chiefs are monsters that can fly. Divide it into 4 categories: monsters that can attack from a distance, monsters that can heal, and others. First, cut off that Lizardman’s wings.”

∴

There were very few monsters that could fly.

All 21 Lizardmen came to the village.
There are a total of 215 monsters capable of ranged attacks.
161 archers among them. There were 54 wizards.
12 healers.
And there were a total of 239 monsters to attack the fallen Lizardman.
The monsters that cannot be fought are 18 young ogres who originally lived in the ogre village.

“I will take over the command of this battle. If you have a disagreement, speak up now.”

There was no disagreement.
In this place where numerous tribal chiefs gathered, there was no one more suitable than me, the heir of Kraine.
Also, by looking at the expectation, I also notice that I want to check my skills for myself.

[Do you want to create a battle command (Lv10)? Consumed value: 14000]
After creating a new ability to assist in this battle, I put the demon into the air to explain the operation.

“This is the village.”

Drew a circle

“The current Lizardman’s location is here.”

It was located in the upper left corner of the village.

“The Lizardmen who can fly will intercept the Lizardmen from the air with me, and the monsters who can attack from a distance will be divided into north, south, east, west, and surround the Lizardmen before launching an attack.”

On the operational blueprint, I made 4 dots centered on the Lizardman.

“And among the monsters that can use magic, are there any that can use barriers or shields?”

About 40 raised their hands in response to my question.
For wizards, self-defense methods such as barriers and shields were essential.

“Okay, then 22 of them put barriers on me and the Lizardmen to prevent misfire.”

Then, out of the 54 monsters holding hands to share the magic, I placed the magic in front of 22 monsters.

“You will do that. Also, monsters that can be healed stand by here, stepping back from the front lines.”

The placement of the Healers was moderately away from the runaway Lizardmen.
In the middle of the battle, they will take care of the rear so that the monsters who have left the front line due to injury can return to the front line again.

“Also, the remaining monsters are waiting here. They will play a role in concentrating firepower while the runaway Lizardmen lose their ability to fly and crash.”

This ended the combat deployment.
The monsters also seemed to understand.

“Are you okay with that one?”

A monster raised her hand and asked.

“What.”

“However, until you approach the Lizardmen who are in such a runaway state, you are exposed to too great a threat. Even if it fulfills its combat deployment, the damage in the process is expected to be too great.”

That’s definitely true.
Even if it’s just that Magi Breath right now, its destructive power is transmitted through the skin.
Even though it’s pretty far off.

“Don’t worry about that part. I will draw his attention and make time to figure out his attack pattern.”

“… What?”

“Does that make sense…?”

“No, no matter how much you say heir…”

At my words, the monsters started whispering.
It was more of a worry than a doubt about me who hadn’t shown anything yet…

“… Everyone be quiet!”

Tan stopped his whisper.

“Sorry.”

“No, it’s fine, there’s nothing to be sorry about. It would be natural for you to doubt and worry about me, who has not shown me anything yet.”

“…”

Tan was silent.
This is proof that my words are true.

“No matter how much I’m still lacking in growth, do you think that Craine-sama’s heir won’t be able to buy time for a fake dragon? Let me show you this opportunity. So that you guys wait until I give the order to attack,”

“… All right.”

If you get stuck here, there is no answer.
It is the same as completely losing his status as the successor.
I will definitely show you more than earning time.

“Then, tribal chiefs, divide the monsters according to their placement. As soon as preparations are complete, we will depart immediately.”

“”Yes!””

The monsters answered and this time informed the lovers of the strategy.

“It’s just the standard way.”

“What shall we do?”

Ahyoung asked.

“I want you guys to help me from the beginning. Ah-yeong, Seo-in, and Laysha will ask for a check and heal on the ground while I fight in the air. Chloe defends the other kids on the ground so they can focus on attacking and healing, while Yuri prepares for any unexpected situations.”

“Okay, I get it.”

“Just leave it to me.”

Everyone was pretty confident.
And I also felt some anticipation.
You’ll get quite a bit by hunting down that runaway Lizardman.
Either material or anti-material.

“Then let’s go right away. Riel-nuna, please protect the monsters here.”

This time, the damage from the monsters will be minimized.
The less damage you do, the higher your confidence in me will be.
Of course, only this time.
I can’t risk my life and the lives of my lovers for someone else’s business.

“If you think everyone is in danger, retreat right away, okay?”

“Huh.”

Approached the village.

Really sad. The village was almost completely ruined.
Crops turned to ashes by fire and buildings destroyed.

I was worried about how to fix this.

I hid behind a building and timed it for a moment.

A situation where the runaway Lizardmen did not notice us yet.

I took advantage of this gap to use all the buffs.

Strength: 121 (Berring +36) (Fight +108) (Breakthrough +60) (Warfronts +12)
Agility: 125 (Berring +37) (Fight +113) (Breakthrough +62) (Warfront +13) (Blessing +10)
Stamina:120 (Berrage +36) (Fight +108) (Break the Limit +60) (Warfront +12) (Bless +30)
Endurance:120 (Berrage +36) (Fight +108) (Break the Limit +60) (Warfront +12)
Mana:150 (Berring +45) (Fight +135) (Breakthrough +75) (Warfronts +15)
Spirit: 140 (Berring +42) (Fight +126) (Breakthrough +70) (Warfronts +14)
Magi: 54

The stat multiplier obtained from breaking the limit is 1.9x.
Fortunately, it was not twice the limit.
If so, it meant that he was a worthy opponent, at least weaker than the deacon of the Demonic Cult.

It only looks a little like a dragon, but it doesn’t reach a dragon at all.
However, he was never an easy opponent to look at.

“Then let’s go.”

“Huh.”

“Okay.”

Demonization was used.
Now that Yonginhwa is on cooldown, it was best to use demonization.

“Oh…”

Demonization was used and wings and horns sprouted.

And I was able to feel it thanks to the creation of one proficiency.
Using Demonization, the Demonic Blood became wider and the passages increased exponentially.

It flapped its wings and rose into the air.

“Hyewon.”

“Huh!”

I called Hyewon and immediately Hyewon appeared.

“That breath, can I eat it?”

“Mmmm… Yeah, I think I can.”

If so, that Magi Breath can be defended by Hyewon.
This may be a lot easier than you think.

Also, the dragon in a runaway state did not recognize me yet.

“Whoa…”

I thought about whether or not to use the open door for a while.
However, there was no need to use it until the door was opened right now.
It will be enough to use later when the situation becomes urgent.

Gathered the magic together.
Magi gradually became sharper and larger, and soon took the form of a giant spear.

“Kaaaaagh!!!”

The runaway dragon finally recognized me.
However, Longinus’ preparations were already over.
After grabbing the spear, I got into a stance.

“Krurruk…! Kaak!!!”

And the Lizardman took a deep breath.
His stomach has grown enormously.
It seemed to be preparing for a breath.

But for me, there was Hyewon who would block the breath.

Believing that Hyewon would defend it, I threw Longinus.

Fain!

Longinus, which struck the air and made a huge blast, started flying towards the Lizardman.

“Kaaa!!”

And the Lizardman who fired the breath.

Longinus broke through the breath and advanced.
The breath also spewed towards me, ignoring Longinus.

Hyewon stood in front of me.
And Hyewon, who grew in size in an instant, grew to the point of covering me and became the shape of a mouth in front of me.

Did you intuit that something was wrong?
The lizard man hastily cut off his breath and flapped his wings to avoid Longinus.

I have no intention of just letting go.
Focus your mind.
Control Longinus.

At the same time, Hyewon started eating Magi’s breath.
I only focused on attacking.

The Lizardman tried to avoid Longinus by flying higher.

My longinus cannot be avoided as long as my mental strength permits.
Longinus relentlessly pursues the Lizardmen.
Hyewon also swallowed all the breath that was spouting out at me.

[Maggie has risen by 2.]

“It’s good…”

“I know.”

Magi stats increase with this.
It was an unexpected harvest, but rejoicing comes later.

“Quit…”

The Lizardman turned and bit Longinus to pieces.

This is the first time that demons have been forcibly destroyed like this.
I felt that my mental powers were a little out of the way.

“Then how about this?”

He controlled the broken demonic spirit of Longinus.

The sharp fragments slashed the Lizardman’s mouth.

“Kaaaaagh!!”

Hear screams of pain
The attack was successful.

And the Magi that were used were quickly collected.

The longer you use the demon energy once released from the body, the higher the consumption of mental power.

Anyway, the attack was successful, and Laysha’s rose sword and Ayoung’s spirit magic dealt additional damage to the Lizardmen.

Attacks that hit the wings and forelegs, respectively.

“It sure is solid.”

Even though it was a pretty accurate hit, it only pierced the scales.
I could see blood from my attacks, but not lovers.

Still, this is enough for now.

“… First of all, it’s a dragon.”

The problem was different.
Regeneration right away.

The blood dripping from his mouth had stopped before he knew it, and his mouth, which had been so wounded that the teeth were visible, had healed before he knew it.

“We need to finish it as soon as possible.”

Can I finish it within today?
Right now, the day after tomorrow, the lovers have to go back to the academy.
Me too.

“I’ll just grab this and go.”
