Chapter 232 – At the End of the Wait (2)

The veil of light that guarded the fortress disappeared.

Dozens of starlight spears floated in the sky as if instead.

Its appearance is simple, but each one is a high-level sacred technique made by refining divine power to the limit.

A bloody miracle created solely to destroy evil.

Beneath it was a white woman walking out of the fort where the light had disappeared.

Gray hair that grew long enough to reach the floor. Transparent skin through which blood vessels are visible. Even the clothes are white.

The only colors were green eyes and pale pink lips.

However, the appearance is so beautiful that I first feel that it is beautiful rather than bizarre.

It was a face I looked at reflexively, but I opened her mouth blankly without knowing that familiar beauty.

The former Saint Clara. She is the owner of this dungeon, and she is a rescue target who would normally be holding out inside the fortress.

… Why is my sister here?

Well, judging from the atmosphere, I can understand that he came to join us. But is this okay?

If Clara gets hit, she’ll have to start all over again.

Of course she knows that Clara is strong. In the first place, she is a saint of the righteous Church of Light, not anywhere else. It was even fortified in real battles in the Great War, so there’s no way it’s weak.

They say that the apex of a knight is a sword master, the apex of a wizard is a great mage, and the apex of a priest is an apostle.

However, the current Clara is not in perfect condition. She fights non-stop for days and is in a state of exhaustion both mentally and physically.

The reason the time limit is one day is because the remaining divine power runs out before the end of the day.

Tarrasque also seemed to have the same thoughts as me, and turned her body towards Clara, who was leaning towards me.

“I thought I would crawl out on my own feet. Wouldn’t it be lonely to die alone?”

“Yes. That’s why I brought you all in.”

“Hmm? Are you sure you want to self-destruct?”

“… If you don’t know, that’s fine. Anyway, what I have to do won’t change.

“I agree.”

A life that swells in an instant.

Tarrasque’s heels rose slightly and became ready to attack at any time, and Clara’s light spear also began to rotate all at once.

Tarrasque is about to rush at an invisible speed, and Clara is trying to intercept him.

Will Clara’s light spear be able to match the timing, will it be able to pierce Tarrasque’s thick shell, or will it all fail and deliver effective hits in vain.

I felt bad for no reason at the fight between the two that took place during this short period of time, so I threw my magic at the back of Tarasque’s head.

“Stone Spear.”

A low-level magic that creates and ejects a rough stone spear.

Maybe it’s because its power is so weak that it’s embarrassing to compare it to Clara’s Starlight Spear. Tarrasque doesn’t even look at me.

He must have believed in the hard shell and did that. Confidence that, at the level of a middle-ranking wizard, no matter what you do, you will not be able to pierce your own carapace.

That’s the guy’s mistake.

Whoa-!

The sharp rock that cut through the wind is Tarasque’s cervical vertebrae… To be more precise, it hits a small inverted carapace between the neck and waist.

Kwajik.

“What… ?”

The guy who stopped hurriedly without trying to hit the ground. As if in disbelief, he widened his eyes and glared at me.

Okay. Outwardly, I don’t notice much of a difference, but I know it. That the connection between the carapace itself had become unstable due to the blow a while ago.

No matter how great a masterpiece it is, in the end, a chimera is a chimera. It means that there is a monster that is the base.

Tarasque’s hide was made from Drake’s. However, it is difficult to recognize because it is given a special alloy instead of ordinary scales and its shape has been slightly modified.

Anyway, the important thing is that it has the same weakness as the Drake species.

Thick scales like armor. Among them, there are inverted scales in the heart part.

Destroying this part, which is commonly referred to as the reverse, greatly weakens Drake’s defense.

The bond between the scales collapsed, causing problems with the shock dissipation function, as well as the magic resistance being reduced to less than half due to the disorganization of the magic circulation.

This is a weakness that also applies to Tarrasque.

What… Even though the guys who made the tarasque were corrupted, their skills were solid, so perhaps they could have hidden a clear weakness even if they sacrificed a little defense.

The problem is that they didn’t believe in Tarrasque from the beginning.

The carapace worn by Tarrasque is not only physically hard, but also has strong magical resistance.

It is even possible to neutralize the divine power until the power runs out after receiving the blessing of turbid unity.

Originally, he would have brainwashed his creations so that they would not go against them, but magic did not work well for Tarasque, so he created a weakness that only they knew about.

Because Chimera was born unstable, there are many cases where the personality is dirty.

By the way, this is the information you can learn from the memo left in the hideout of the alchemists hidden deep in the valley.

At the beginning of the game’s release, I somehow managed to break through the Chimera group and reach the fortress, and I was repeatedly killed by Tarasque, who seemed to have used an invincible cheat, or reset for the first time after the time limit expired.

It’s not just about beating them up, it’s information that they found after wandering around for a long time, saying that there must be a way to attack Tarasque somewhere.

… Later on, I became a victim of content dedicated to old people, such as catching tarasque without destroying parts.

Anyway, it’s a strategy that I figured out after trial and error enough to overturn the official cafe once, but it will feel a little different to Tarrasque himself.

For example… It was like saying that I was instigated by the alchemists, or that I had already beaten them.

Tarrasque looked at me with a stiff expression.

“Are you looking this way now?”

“You guys… !”

Tarrasque smirks and slaps the staff and is ready to die. Unfortunately, however, he continued his speech in a calm atmosphere, as if he had no intention of falling for provocation.

“… Well, good You don’t have to waste your time on people who will all die together in the end. That’s it! Wipe out those who don’t even know the subject!”

An order given to the nearby chimeras. As a result, the guys who had been quietly retreating until now began to howl ferociously and rush at them.

The five of them, who were at the level of lieutenants, had already started fighting with the others.

Next is Tarrasque, who inflates his leg muscles as if it were me. At this, Clara hurriedly fired the starlight spear she had loaded and shouted.

“Back off! Not your level to deal with!”

“Everyone will understand, but…”

A torrent of light stuck behind Tarasque’s back. As if it was impossible to completely block it with a slightly softer shell, the star light spear was about a finger.

But that’s it. Nothing penetrated the thick carapace, and Tarrasque kicked the ground with a slight frown.

Wow!

A roar that echoed just from the strong step of his foot. Not only dodging, but even chasing with the eyes was a tough speed… Preparations have already been made.

She shouted, increasing the output of her core to the point that mana leaked out of her.

“Dig! Digg! Digg!”

“Under!”

Tarasque snorts at the deep pit. Well, it was dug quite deep and wide, but this distance could be easily traversed by just leaping.

Normally, it would be.

But this is Cassis Valley. It is a strange area where all beings that rise above a certain level are slammed to the ground.

A pit so deep that it is impossible to see the end. The moment I crossed over it, the Tarrasque was deemed to be flying at the depth I dug and plummeted underground.

Cooong!

“Gagging!”

It’s a tarasque that crashed its own body and used it as a mass weapon, but that’s the story when the shell was intact and the body was rolled up in preparation for the impact.

In a weakened state, if it suddenly fell like this, it must have suffered a blow to some extent.

However, now is not the time to wonder how much damage it did.

The original plan was to take advantage of Tarrasque’s panic after falling into the pit and destroy the evil in the back of his head.

Partial destruction has already been completed by hitting the back of the head with Clara’s sudden appearance.

The buffa is over, but what if there is a prey caught in a trap?

It’s extreme time.

“Sung Gwang Chang! Hurry up and hit them all!”

“To? Ah? To?”

Was it embarrassing that Tarrasque, which felt like a terrible wall, was so easily neutralized?

It was Clara who hesitated for a moment, but before I could speak, she reflexively aimed at the starlight spear.

She is also a righteous saint of light who is said to be one of the best in battle. Are you instinctively catching the deal timing?

Papa Bat!

Starlight spears falling into the pit one after another. When the light comes on, you start to see a little bit of the inside.

Tarrasque had a hedgehog-like appearance with a carapace cracked here and there, and several starlight spears stuck on it.

Watching her struggling to come to her senses and trying to block the starlight window, I raised her magic power.

Since you have already joined Clara, and Tarasque, who is no different from the boss, is trapped like this, there is no need to save magic.

My heart beats like crazy and it cries loudly in my ears. He declared loudly, lifting his staff as if to silence it.

“Confidence, thunderbolt, flash, strike at the moment, Thunder Calling!”

The magic power extending from the end of the staff created a pitch black cloud, and then lightning struck Tarrasque.

Kwareung!

“Ouch…”

It is a power that cannot be seen as ordinary intermediate magic, thanks to ignorantly hitting mana and reinforcing it once more with resonance.

Tarasque, who had been hit by the starlight spear and began to lose the divine protection of the clouded unity, should also take some damage.

Looking down at the guy who gritted his teeth and let out a low moan, he continued to raise her mana.

“Thunder Calling! Thunder Calling! Thunder Calling! Thunder Calling!”

Last time, a staff member broke and used it with his fingers, but not now.

The metal staff made by Faye only heated up a little, but she silently endured this level of overload as if it were nothing.

Lightning strikes in succession. I spoke to Clara, who had just consumed all the Starlight Spears, aiming for the spot she had hit again.

“If you blow it all up, please put a barrier. If there is an obstacle now, it will be troublesome…”

“… All right.”

Clara kneels down in place with a dejected smile. Centering on her, her white dome-shaped divine power spreads out.

A barrier that leaves us and the bosses we dealt with, but pushes away miscellaneous things.

As if the tarrasque remaining inside was not intact, black smoke was billowing from its entire body.

As if resisting Clara’s divine power, the protection of the evil spirits would react fiercely.

In other words, it is also said that the dot damage continues to cut the shield.

“Whoa…”

It was a lot different than expected, but did it go in a good direction anyway?

Thinking she was finished, she let out a sigh and took out a mana potion and put it in her mouth.

Tarrasque, who had only been beaten, seemed to see this as an opportunity, bent down like a spring and then unfolded it all at once.

“Bloke! You were careless! I will not be vigilant any longer! I’ll tear you apart and kill you at once!”

Tarrasque jumps up from the bottom at once with a powerful sound. It seems that the guy’s leg strength was still good, and he pulled a giant of that size up to the ground at once.

And then it crashed again at breakneck speed.

Thud!

“Aaaaagh!! What did you do again this time!”

“That’s stupid. If you jumped this far, you flew that much. Have you already forgotten why you got stuck in the first place?”

“Well, then… !”

Tarrasque raised his hand towards the wall. They must be digging a tunnel to the side to get out of it gently.

But in the first place, what was the reason I showed a gap a little while ago? It was to replenish mana.

“Thunder Calling!”

“Keep.”

Tarasque flinched as if it was quite painful after being hit so many times. Surprisingly, Clara puts a barrier on the wall on her own before she even speaks.

Tarrasque kicks as hard as he can, but… It’s useless.

The reason why Clara was defeated 300 years ago was because all of her divine power was gone, not because someone broke Clara’s barrier.

It was a barrier that remained intact even when Tarasque and all the Chimeras under his command rushed into it. It’s not something you can do on your own.

“Ah… Ah…”

The wall is completely blocked, and even if you jump up, you will only fall headlong.

It was the Tarrasque that had driven Clara into the fortress, but this time he realized that he was trapped.

A despairing sigh escaped from his mouth, which had only been spitting out words full of bravado.

On the other hand, Clara’s expression suddenly brightened when she realized that all she had to do was defeat Tarasque, who was still stuck like this, until she died.

Clara clenched her fists, drawing the divine power she had saved from the familiar medallion to use as a trigger for her self-sacrifice spell.

“Wise wizard.”

“I’m ashamed of myself. Please call me Yandel.”

“Then, Wizard Yandel.”

Clara, who created a shining spear between his clenched fists, said with a broad smile.

“Let’s hit it hard.”

“Sure.”

It should be crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.
