Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai-Chapter 177.2 - Shaman vs Pyromancer ２

TN: You Got TheRainbow Slayer Title!

===

When Ooyama's reinforcement spell was sealed, he could still use his offensive pyromancer spell, but it was ineffective against Rems. His only advantage was a long-range attack, but Rems was closing in on him.

Rem-Dark Knight stood in front of him, raising her great sword above her head for a strike that would undoubtedly end his life, while Alfa's saw tail blade came from the side.

Ooyama, who had lost his three buffs, had no way of defending himself against Rem's combination attack.

UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, DAI-CHAAAAAAAN!

A third party suddenly appeared between the two sides. It didn't take a genius to figure out who this was: Sugino Takashi.

Perhaps he sensed instinctively that his partner was in grave danger and thus leapt across the still-burning Ignis Wall Defence.

TAK-TAKAAA!

How dare you, TO HURT MY DAI-CHAAAAAAAAAAAN!

SERIOUSLY! He attacked twice with his huge mace as he yelled.

The mace, which was loaded with raw power, struck Rem-Dark Knight and sent Alfa flying.

Despite the fact that Alfa's saw tail blade ripped through Sugino's body, she received a counter due to her heavy warrior tough body. Sugino, in short, was tanking the attack with his tough defense.

Sugino stepped in like a hero to save Ooyama, who was in danger.

Aah, I made it in time. Did you get hurt, Dai-chan?

Taka, you idiot! Why are you going this far for someone like me

Yeah, Sugino was an idiot. Ooyama would've died if not for Sugino's interruption.

But I had learnt a lesson from Yamajun. Such an act was pointless if the person who came to save you died.

As a result, I could express some sympathy to Ooyama, who was in the same situation as me when Yamajun saved my life.

Naturally, it's because I l GUBHOO!? [TL: GOOD JOB ATTACKER, YOUR TIMING IS THE BEST!!]

Sugino's flank emitted a massive black blade. Its razor-sharp, jet-black tip pierced the steel-like body of the heavy warrior.

Fuuh, that's one down.

As she said those words, the berserker walked out from behind the firewall. Her gait was light as if she were going for a walk, and she held no weapon.

It was a hurtling halberd that had pierced Sugino's flank.

Perhaps that halberd had been launched from the other side of the blazing Ignis Wall Defence with full berserker power through the hole created by Sugino, who passed through the firewall to save his gay partner and pierced his defenseless back.

Yeah, Mei-chan and Sugino were also fighting on the other side of the firewall that was created to isolate me.

Berserker and heavy warrior were vocations specialized in combat. Unlike shamans like me, who had to rely on underhanded tactics in battle, their fights were extremely fierce, with no room for error.

He was literally asking for it when he recklessly turned his back on Mei-chan in the middle of a fight to save Ooyama. And Mei-chan, who had transformed into a merciless berserker, wouldn't let go of that opportunity.

N-No way Lies, Taka

Sorry, Dai-chan You've to run.

Ooyama stood dumbfounded in front of his gay partner, who had been skewered by Mei-halberd chan's as if it were karma. Sugino, on the other hand, had already given up hope of winning.

Sugino, the brawniest and tallest man in the class, had already collapsed on his knees as if he had lost the will to fight. As he vomited blood, he barely prodded his knee, urging Ooyama to flee.

THE HELL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, LIKE HELL I'M GOING TO ESCAPE! LIKE HELL I'M GOING TO SAVE MYSELF WHILE LEAVING YOU TO DIE!

DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME, YOU HAVE TO ESCAPE, DAI-CHAN!

Sugino pushed Ooyama's body back at that moment. Ooyama collapsed on his back, screaming like a frail girl. Seriously, you're a man, aren't you?

My bad Sugino-kun, we have no intention to let go of Ooyama-kun, you know? I mean, both of you have already been marked as Kotaro-kun's enemy, after all.

Saying so, Mei-chan unsheathed her sub-weapon, the cursed sword Dismemberment Demonic Butcher's Knife.

RUUUUN! RUN, DAI-CHAN! YOU'VE TO SURVIVE, LE

Don't worry, I'll make sure to bury you two in the same hole so that you can suffer together.

Sugino could only manage to urge Ooyama to escape. At that moment, the berserker mercilessly grabbed his head. Mei-chan could easily grab his soft Mohican-styled hair and plunge the sword blade, which was wrapped in an ominous aura, into his thick neck.

WA-WAIT, STOP, PLEASE DON'T KILL TAKA! PLEASE, TAKA IS MY EVE

It's okay, Dai-chan. Sorry, we can't be together till the e

That's all he could say before Mei-chan, who shuddered seeing the exchange between the two gays, beheaded Sugino.

STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!

Too late, Sugino's head had already separated from its body.

Dismemberment Demonic Butcher's Knife easily tore off the heavy warrior neck which was supposed to be really tough. Mei-chan moved her hands like Sugino were a piece of meat to be butchered. Her movement was completely natural as if it had been programmed into her muscle memory.

Perhaps this was the second human(classmate) that was killed by Mei-chan. And yet, it was as if she had been used to this situation.

Now then Ooyama-kun, any last words?

Mei-chan, holding the Dismemberment Demonic Butcher's Knife in her right hand and Sugino's decapitated her in her left, asked the trembling, pale-faced Ooyama with an angelic, merciful smile.

Ah, Uh, AAAAh

Worry not, just count the spots on the ceiling and it'll be over in a flash no pain, no suffering.

Just like Sakurai-kun and Hinagiu-san, eh.

Strangely, we had mourned them properly.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, SMOKE!

Ooyama's body emitted a pitch-black smoke as he screamed like a madman.

!!??

Mei-chans face stiffened for a moment, and the next moment, she had already wrapped her arm around me.

Its just smoke, eh. Sorry Kotaro-kun, I let him escape.

Thanks to Mei-chan's quick reflexes, by the time I realized, she had already carried me to the corner of the room. And by the time the dense black smoke in the centre of the room dispersed, Ooyama's figure had vanished.

His vocation seemed to be quite versatile, as he had even learnt a spell that allowed him to escape a predicament. I reckoned it was just like Shimokawa's Aqua Mist all or nothing Ooyama's was combat mage.

We'll go after him, right?

No it's enough.

But he's dangerous, we cant leave him to his own devices.

This is enough. I don't think we should do more than this.

I wonder just what kind of an expression I had when I said that. It was a pity, but I saw no reason to kill someone who had already been reduced to that state.

But Mei-chan, who wholeheartedly accepted my decision, was even more amazing. She simply hugged me silently.

Aah, the warmth of her skin thawed my frozen heart and pierced my bones. Cr*p, what should I do now? At this rate, I'll be very horny very soon

Ha~h, let's get away from this place immediately to avoid future trouble.

Yeah.

I reluctantly withdrew from her embrace and took out the boss' core that had already become our target. Thankfully, Sugino was the one who had been holding onto that core.

After we put everything in order, we transferred safely.

Nonetheless, despite the fact that our ambush was a huge success, I couldn't get used to the feeling of killing a human.

Whether it was because I didn't get my hands dirty this time or because she could kill Sugino without hesitation, or because I saw how close the two had become in the last few days, I was impressedI didn't want to think about any of that right now.

But I think I understood what Higuchi meant when he said You'll regret this, you know, albeit just a little.
