Tenkomori: The Homecoming Club Conquers Another World-Chapter 98.4 - The Second Year at the Academy - Consequences of a Chain (4)

Swinging Shamshir in a horizontal sweep.

The bisected [Earth Bolt] fell to the ground and disappeared.

That's why it's not get obstructed.

Movement is indeed restricted, but it doesn't have much impact at this level.

Anyway, it's the first [Force Field].

At this point, greed begins to emerge. I want to see at least one of them.

Kudurga didn't shoot a pursuing [Earth Bolt].

Instead, an unusual presence began to emanate around.

Grateful, is it an immediate spirit magic?

However—this is a bit unexpected.

I raise my vigilance and scan all around.

The number captured by [Presence Detection] is seven. Isn't spirit summoning supposed to be just one?

The mossy ground splits, and a small, single-eyed snake emerges.

It looks like an awkward sculpture made of stones and soil clumps.

Earth spirit, Lanniel, huh?

Suddenly, Kudurga twitches.

As a signal, the earth spirit Lanniel simultaneously howls.

Instantly, [Physical Up] and [Moving Up] are [Multiple Chanting], and I cut, deflect, and dodge the thrusting stone stakes.

It didn't stop at once.

Successively, seven stakes fly from all directions.

It's tougher than I imagined.

I understand the feelings of those I've dealt with so far. It's like ‘multiple chanting.'

Moreover, the stakes have a skill called [Breath of the Earth Seed], and Lanniel's magic power hasn't decreased.

Frustrated by the attacks not landing, one Lanniel jumps towards me.

While deflecting another stake, I return the attack with my sword.

The sensation is dull.

I couldn't bisect it, and I ended up repelling Lanniel.

Is it difficult for regular weapons?

I pursue Lanniel with [Wind Running], as it flies away.

The invisible blade tears through Lanniel, but before I can savor it, [Strong Strike] is released towards my head.

"Ku!"

Kudurga's fang clashes with Shamshir, and [Strong Strike] gets repelled.

I stop Kudurga, who is trying to engulf me, with my sword. f reewe bnovel

In the corner of my vision, I catch sight of Lanniel.

This is bad—

I push back Kudurga and quickly scan the line of sight.

No good. free(w)ebnovel

I deflect and dodge the stakes aimed at my head and torso.

However, I couldn't avoid the stake that pierced my left forearm and grazed my right thigh.

Enduring the intense pain, I distance myself.

Troublesome, spirit magic.

The coordination just now is the power of [Spirit Communion]. Even without exchanging glances, they accurately launched attacks. They're connected by something invisible.

The fact that Lanniel is a long-range type is tough.

[Multiple Chanting] is activated centered around oneself, but spirit magic has as many launching platforms as the number of the caster and spirits. If I'm a machine gun, these guys are like multiple people with pistols.

The Kousai Sword, or the spare one-handed sword, would have made it a bit easier.

Holding Shamshir with only my right hand, I glance at my left arm.

I can't use my left arm anymore. The bone is damaged.

It's time to make a decision.

I understand spirit magic well now.

Lanniel is a weak spirit, without using skills, it's a fair match with a Goblin.

Still, I've suffered a serious injury.

In conclusion, spirit magic is terrifying.

If there were many users, Lapnas might not have been called a hero.

I switch my focus and concentrate.

However, both Kudurga and I moved to make a move.

Faster than me, Kudurga's magic is released.

A faint murmur reaches my ears.

Suppressing the pain in my legs, I jump into the air instantly.

This is [Stalagmite]—like a sword mountain.

Covering the entire area are numerous stone spears.

Infantry and cavalry will suffer if they have their feet on the ground. Moreover, the length is about sixty centimeters, making it even more difficult to receive fatal injuries.

It's malicious, but it's called anti-army magic for a reason.

While impressed, a huge mouth approaches.

Stone stakes get shot out as if aimed.

Escaping by flying was also anticipated.

Sorry, but the training is over.

As fangs and stakes approach, I release [Fireball].

Simultaneously, I activate my ability with the blue and azure mantle, deploying [Water Shield] in front of me.

[Fireball] collides with Kudurga, scattering flames in all directions and deflecting the stone stakes with me.

They hit a nearby trunk, and I fell to the ground.

Brushing off the embers, I check my status.

My health is low. That's intermediate magic; I might die with 2 more hits.

To preserve some magic power, I activated [Water Shield] with the blue and azure mantle, but doesn't add much to the owner-dependent. Maybe I was too stingy.

Standing up and repositioning Shamshir, all Lanniels have disappeared.

The sword mountain has also vanished, and [Force Field] has also worn off unnoticed.

I see, that's why they made a move.

I've returned to square one, but why do I feel unsteady?

Kudurga charges with its head shaking.

However, it collides with the ground off-target and ends up burying its head in it.

"What are you doing?"

It seems it can't get out, and its body wildly thrashes.

Well, this is different. Still, it's too foolish.

Observing its defenseless body, I couldn't help but be amazed.

It seems it's trying to escape.

Not that good at burrowing, but more importantly, it's not something you should do in front of the enemy.

My magic power is on the verge of exhaustion, and my mind isn't functioning properly.

I activate [Obstructing Earth Wall] directly under its head.

The wall propels it, and the large snake dances in the air.

"Even without running out, this is how it turns out. Let's be careful of the remaining amount."

I activate [Penetrate Gale] with [Multiple Chanting].

Countless wind bullets break through the outer layer—penetrating.

This one is also not well-aimed.

Blood splatters from the hole in its neck, and Kudurga writhes on the ground.

It has the power of instant death, but its penetrating power was too high, and it went through.

I should have made it a bit shallower. The high accuracy is also something to consider.

I activate [Magic Bolt] with [Multiple Chanting] and deliver the finishing blow to Kudurga.
