"Everyone run!! Run for your lives!!!"
"The demon Deliora is coming!!! "
"Ahhhhh."
" Runnn "
Hearing all the screams coming from the edge of the town, Akira's expression was complicated.
'Should I say I am lucky, or should I worry that I am so lucky that my luck can turn into unluckiness?' Akira thought to himself as he looked at the commotion in front of him. Villagers were screaming wildly and running away with everything they could carry without slowing them down.
It hadn't even been more than 4 hours since they had arrived in this village, but trouble seemed to be already knocking on their doorsteps.
It won't take a genius to guess what the reason for all this commotion is. The scouts who were sent out of the village had informed everyone that Deliora is heading this way.
Wait a minute. If he remembered correctly, this town is named Brago, and according to his memory, this place should be where Ur fought Deliora to death. So this meant that…
"Hey, Wakaba, I have good news and bad news; which one do you want to hear first?" Akira said as an awkward smile came across his face as he looked at Wakaba.
Wakaba, who was just about to take a nap, was puzzled by the sudden question. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Well, give me the good news first."
"Well, the good news is that I may have found Ultear's mother, " Akira said as he began to put on the wizard robe that he just took off again.
Hearing his words, Ultear, who was sad a moment ago, was startled. Her expression began to show obvious happiness. It is obvious the little girl is yearning to meet with her mother.
"And the bad news is " Wakaba asked, a very bad feeling coming across his chest.
"Well, the bad news is if we don't hurry, she may be dead, " Akira said as he used his illusion magic to conjure up a screen that shows the image of what his familiar was witnessing.
As soon as he came inside this inn, Akira had already released a dozen or so familiars to scout the surroundings.
And it didn't take much time to locate the two of them.
As the screen appeared, both Wakaba and Ultear saw the scene of a woman fighting against a 60-80-meter ferocious demon.
With one look, Ultear immediately shouted, "Mooom!"
...
Boom!
Ice and rocks flew everywhere as Deliora's massive fists hit the ground. Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground as the demon roared angrily.
"Damn it, Ice Make: Rose Garden," Ur groaned as she used her magic to counterattack Deliora's attack.
Ice roses came out of the ground and began to wrap around Deliora, binding him completely. The demon roared and struggled violently, but the vines held him tightly in place.
"Ice-Make: Ice Geyser, " Ur shouted as she attacked.
Ice spikes came out of the ground and impaled the defenseless Deliora. The demon roared in pain and finally broke through the restraints. He swung his fists and smashed all the ice spikes into tiny fragments.
Dust flew everywhere, and Ur took this opportunity to make some distance between her and Deliora. After the dust settled, she noticed how the ice spears she made only made small injuries on Deliora's body. And these injuries are healing rapidly.
"Tsk, fucking damn it, " Ur, who is quite sensible and well-behaved, cursed loudly with foul words she rarely uses. She couldn't help it, as this time her mind is a big mess.
Even though she is using her full power and continues to attack Deliora, she can't even cause a major injury to him.
In addition to the high-speed regeneration, Deliora also seems to have some sort of magic immunity, as none of her attacks seem to hurt him. What's more, during this whole battle, she found that only she was getting tired, as the demon didn't even have a single sweat on him.
Usually, in such a battle, one must do his best to escape, as there is no point in continuing this battle. But she couldn't do that, as behind her were her two students, who had been knocked unconscious by one of Deliora's attacks. In addition, one of her legs is severed, making her unable to move freely.
If she were to escape, then her two students would be in danger. And this is something she absolutely cannot allow. After her daughter's death, she vowed not to let any of her children die again.
'Gray, Leon, I'm sorry it seems I have to break our promise of travelling in the whole northern plains. ' Her thought as sadness came across her eyes.
Then her eyes became firm again. 'Ultear, it seems Mommy will be meeting sooner than expected. '
Keeping her right hand above her left and making an 'X' sign, Ur was about to use the most powerful sealing magic she had ever created in order to help her two disciples to live another day.
"Ice Make: She…" Just as Ur was about to complete her spell, she was suddenly interrupted as a person dropped from the sky.
"Twin Dragon style: Dragon's descent. "
With a roar of a dragon, a bright purple sword energy came out from nowhere and hit Deliora on the chest accurately. As soon as the attack landed, the demon roared painfully as it was blasted away.
"Well, lady, why don't we stop that dangerous spell, shall we? The situation isn't serious enough for you to use such a suicide attack. " Akira said as he let go of the two ice blades that were crumbling in his hands. These two blades were something he asked Ultear to make in a hurry, so they naturally couldn't withstand his powerful swordsmanship. Even using Armament Haki is not enough.
Thankfully, Akira knew a few good magic spells, so he wasn't helpless without his weapon. And besides, if he really needed a sword, then there are plenty of swords in his storage device, but Akira is very reluctant to use them.
Well, the reason for this is that none of the swords he has are strong enough to handle his swordsmanship aura. They would definitely break with just one attack. And since Akira didn't really have a hobby of wasting money, he rarely uses these swords.
Most of the time, he finishes his opening with illusion magic. Just like now,
With a snap of his fingers, Akira activated his favorite and most broken cheat like magic. "Shatter, Kyoka Suigetsu."
And with Akira as the center, a sudden shift occurred on the battlefield. Dark, ominous smoke began to rise from the ground and wrap around Deliora. When the smoke touched Deliora, it screamed in agony as its body began to melt.
Slowly, if you look closely, you would see that the reason why Deliora is screaming is because in this smoke, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of black ants hidden in there.
These ants began to bite Deliora at the same time, and their acid began to eat away the demons' skin.
Deliora used his hands in an attempt to crush the ants that were attacking him. But unfortunately, the ants that were on his legs began to go towards his hands. This made the demon unable to do anything, and it could only jump up and down to get all these ants away.
Suddenly, there was a sound of glass breaking, and the illusion shattered, returning to back to reality.
The demon Deliora was confused, but when he looked down, he saw that there was no ominous gas or any ants. Everything that just happened was an illusion.
This left the demon confused for a moment, but when it saw that its prey had gone missing, an uncontrollable anger began to boil up inside Deliora's heart.
It let out a deafening roar that shook everything.
