TEASER CHAPTER 7 PART 26
Irisdina
and the others had managed to stall the out-of-control Nozomu, but they were
being cornered.
First
of all, Mars' magic and Qi combination technique was gradually losing its
brilliance.
As
the technique engraved on the back of his hand wore out, he began to lose
control of his magic, including his body strengthening magic.
Next,
Irisdina's movements began to slow down. This is due to the adverse effect of
excessive use of physical enhancements.
The
continuous use of magic with excessive effects puts a tremendous burden on the
body. Moreover, she kept using the magic sword [Lunar Eclipse] which was her
trump card. The mental and physical exhaustion on her body was tremendous.
""
Ooooooo! ""
"Guu!"
Irisdina
managed to parry Nozomu's attack. At that moment, too, with a snapping sound,
the muscles in several places on her body were torn.
There
were traces of reddish-black internal bleeding in several places on her skin,
which was pure white reminiscent of fresh snow.
Her
movements were not very precise, and she had her hands full trying to avoid
being cut.
"You,
for God's sake, get back to normal!"
Lisa
managed to pull Nozomu away from Irisdina by shooting a fireball at him, and
then Mars attacked him from the side.
Mars,
in spite of the situation where he was about to lose control of his magic and
Qi combination technique, put all his magic and Qi into the greatsword and
released it. With the intention of destroying everything in front of him, Mars
used the [Dust Break of the Hungry Beast] and forcibly drove Nozomu away from
him.
"Guu
!?"
Forcing
the use of magic and Qi combination techniques, whose control had weakened,
caused a laceration on Mars' arm.
"Are
you okay?"
"Guh~.
S-, somehow ..."
The
sight of Mars enduring the pain with his face contorted made Irisdina and
Lisa's hearts filled with impatience.
If
they couldn't overcome this situation quickly, they won't even have enough time
to execute their last remaining plan.
Nozomu,
who had been blown away, still landed almost unharmed. Without lessening his
anger in the slightest, he was about to attack Irisdina and the others again.
However,
at that moment, Tom's voice echoed from behind them.
"Everyone,
we're ready! Move into action!"
The
long-awaited signal that their last plan was about to be executed. The moment
she heard that voice, Irisdina moved.
With
all her remaining magic power, she activated a technique and launched a spell
called [Dense Fog of Crescent Moon].
With
Irisdina at the center, a pitch-black fog was released, blocking Nozomu's
vision.
""!?
Uoooooo!""
Nozomu
was blinded for a moment, but he didn't care and activated his [Instantaneous
Movement] legs. He sprinted to get through the fog that surrounded him.
The
fog released by Irisdina couldn't completely block Nozomu's vision, perhaps due
to her exhaustion. And if Nozomu could see even the slightest shadow of his
opponent, his extraordinary concentration would never let his prey escape.
