129 Confluence (1/2)
The One Who Beats You (Medjed) Kroki
Myself and Totona rode the flying chimera and watched Rage and the others from behind.
'The battle has begun. Medjed.
Looks like it, Toto.
I nodded at Tona's words.
We caught up with Rage and the others and were wondering if we should join them, when suddenly a cloud of dust rose.
The battle had begun.
Rage is fighting a man with a long spear that suddenly appears.
He is quite skilled.
''Tona. Who is that spearman?''
That's Dahak, Prince of Snakes. The son of Deirdre, Queen of the Serpent. I thought he was killed by Alfos, but I can't believe he's alive: ......
Tona gives me a look of disbelief.
The Serpent Queen is a goddess who is hostile to Elios.
How could her son be here?
I'm thinking about that.
A short distance away from where Rage and the others are, a group of women with snakes in their lower bodies appear.
They are Lamia and Gorgon.
They are supposed to be part of the Serpent Queen's household.
Perhaps they followed the serpent prince and came together.
Should they join the rage?
I don't think Rage is a problem.
I feel like his arms are up more than before.
The spearman seems to be pretty strong, but Rage has the upper hand at the moment.
But what about Rage's friends?
Huh?
I couldn't help but shout.
Suddenly, a giant appeared out of the sand and captured a fellow girl.
It was the Giant of the Earth (Gigatess), which has become synonymous with giants.
The Giant of the Earth (Gigates) emerged from the sand and grabbed the girl with his left hand.
The captured girl looks familiar.
I'm pretty sure it's the girl named Chiyuki.
The skills of the earth giants (Gigattes) are comparable to those of the gods.
It's dangerous to get caught.
''Tona! I'll help her!
As I say this, I fly from the chimera's back and head towards the giant.
The giant lets go of Chiyuki as he flies with his flying magic and hits the body as it is.
The giant flies off and Chiyuki lets out a cute scream.
I hold Chiyuki in the air and land on top of her in the sand.
She looks at you with a dumbfounded expression as you set Chiyuki down on the sand.
It's like she doesn't understand what has happened.
Come to think of it, this is the third time I've saved her.
What happens twice will happen three times, as they say.
”Who are you! You are: !!!!
I hear an angry voice.
When you look at the direction of the voice, the giant of the earth (Gigatess) you pushed away gets up.
The wind blows from its massive body.
The Gigatess is also very powerful.
It probably intends to use its magic to increase its speed.
The wind whipped the cloth from its head.
There's no choice but to intercept them.
The snake... !!!!! A giant snake... !!!!!
Chiyuki suddenly screams.
Surprised, I look at Chiyuki.
She is red-faced and trembling.
What's wrong with her?
”You'll regret pushing me out of here!
However, he doesn't seem to have time to worry about such a chill.
The earth giants (gigatesses) are approaching us.
''O unseen gray spirit! Answer the call! Be a wall to keep out the enemy! True Shadow Spirit Wall (True Shadow Wall)!
Suddenly, I hear Tona's voice from above me.
''Guhggh?!!!''
When the earth giant (Gigatess), which was coming towards us at a furious pace, collides with the magical wall created by Totona, it lets out a strange voice and falls on its back.
The magic that Totona used was to create a completely colorless and transparent wall.
This magical wall can only be noticed by those with high sensing ability.
And it is quite sturdy.
If you run into it without knowing what it is, you'll end up like a fallen earth giant (Gigates).
I've seen Lugus use it before, but it looks like Totoona can use it too.
'Are you okay?'
Riding on the chimera, Tona comes down with a book.
The book she is holding is probably a grimoire.
'Thank you Goddess Totona ...... for saving me. It's okay .......
Coming to himself, Chiyuki replies to Tona.
Her slightly visible cheeks are bright red.
She must be embarrassed by the fact that she is not good with snakes and shouted unintentionally.
In fact, she is so embarrassed that she won't even look at you.
I want to comfort her by telling her that everyone has a weakness for them, but I have no choice but to keep my mouth shut because speaking out will reveal my true identity.
''So? More than that! We have to do something about the earth giants (Gigatess)!
Chiyuki shouts.
There are five remaining giants of the earth (Gigatess).
The cats are quick and haven't been caught so far, but it's bad if I don't do something about it.
''Medjed! Please!
I nod at Tona's words.
You kick the sand and head towards one of the giants of the earth (Gigates).
I'm not going to be able to get rid of the earth giant (Gigates) that noticed me swinging its club, but I twisted my body and ducked, then jumped up and hit the earth giant (Gigates) in the belly as it bent down.
''Gugueh!
A Gigathes emerges with a strange voice, and kicks the body of an Earth Giant (Gigathes) at another Gigathes, who is chasing the Catman.
The body of the kicked Giant of Earth (Gigathes) collides with another Gigathes, causing it to fall.
Two of them are now down. There are three remaining.
The three Gigatesses looked at us with a look of disbelief.
Meanwhile, the Cats take their distance from the Gigattes and head for Tona and the others.
It's all right now.
The Earth Giant (Gigates) loses the will to fight and steps back, carrying his fallen comrades.
Lamia and Gorgon are running away from the monkey-like thing.
The marauders failed to take themselves by surprise with their arrival. I hope they pull back.
'Mr. Rage!
Chiyuki tries to get to Rage.
It's a battle between Rage and Dahak.
Rage has the upper hand. But there's one more person who hasn't shown up.
She doesn't seem to notice it.
I'm the one blocking Chiyuki's path to prevent her from going to Rage.
She looks startled and turns away.
She's still embarrassed that she yelled out.
'Hey?! Why are you interrupting me?!
Chiyuki protests as he turns away.
But I can't let him go.
''It's the ice spear!
Suddenly, an ice spear comes flying at us from empty air.
The ice spear is shot down with a beam coming out of its eyes.
Then they look up at the one who released the ice spear.
There is a woman in a crimson costume floating in the air.
The woman's skin is morbidly white and her hair is as bright red as her costume.
She is a beautiful woman.
However, her beauty is fake.
I don't know what she looks like in her true form, but I do know that the figure she's showing is fake.
'What?! What does this mean? You're still here?
Chiyuki is surprised.
It's not surprising.
I didn't even notice it until just a few minutes ago.
It's a good idea to have the ability to be undetected.
''Hmmm, I'm sorry, but I can't let you go to Daha-kun's place.
Then the crimson woman laughs.
I can see teeth as sharp as blades from her blood-colored lips.
What an anxiety-inducing woman.
”Zafarada. Daughter of the Reaper. I can't believe you're here.
Tona on the chimera steps in front of the crimson woman.
”Hmmmm. I'm not sure if you are Totona. Daughter of Odis, the lowly god-king. I wonder what your blood will taste like. But not now. I'm going to have to retreat.
As he says this, a red mist blows out of Zafarada.
The red mist spreads out in an instant and comes towards us.
It doesn't attack the giants and snake women, but comes towards us alone, so it's like we're alive.
