Chapter 429 Demonic Power



Chapter 429 Demonic Power

AN: I’m sorry everyone. I messed up the scheduling!

————————————————-

A power unbefitting of a super-short chant magic was unleashed.

“Whaa…. What!?” Olivas couldn’t help but stumble backward at the unbelievable sight of ‘instant’ magic instantly killing his most prized monsters, the Viscum.

Among all the shocked people, only Lefiya, who was training under the strongest mage in the city, was unable to stop her trembling body, ‘A super-short chanted enchantment… That’s what Ais-san’s Ariel should be. She’s not a native magic user like Elves. There’s no way a Human like Ais-san… could have this kind of power!! Ais-san, your wind is abnormal…’

Due to releasing her magic, the fetus in the jewel near the pantry crystal opened its eyes and screamed out. Even then, it didn’t manage to wake most of them from the stupor, and Lefiya continued her line of thought, ‘Ais-san’s ‘wind’, it’s definitely the reason why the Level 5 Ais-san was one of the strongest in the city. If she were to reach Level 6, she’ll definitely surpass the Captain in close-combat using her ‘wind’.’

“Kuh… Still, even if we can’t kill the Sword Princess…! Violas!” Still not giving up, Olivas commanded, “I don’t care if it’s only for a moment! Stop the Sword Princess! Viscum! Crush the others!” Another gigantic plant monster appeared from the ground and Yoruichi couldn’t help but think that this part of the Dungeon is pretty infested.

However, as Adventurers, since they’ve seen it once they won’t be in shock as much and cooperated against the monster resulting in it not being able to last even a minute. Meanwhile, Ais instantly annihilated the plant monster that was sent to her, leaving only the two tamers.

“N-No way…!?” Olivas couldn’t accept the fact that the situation was suddenly turned against them and the fear for his life started creeping in on him again, “…Guh… I can’t believe it. There’s no way I’d lose… I… I…” Olivas muttered to himself while cold sweat began to cover his face.

Sona slowly walked forward and faced the tamer, “It seems your man-eating flowers are no more.” However, contrary to what the Hermes Familia, Lefiya, and Filvis were thinking, she couldn’t say that it’s already over since there’s still the Viscum coiling around the crystal, the jewel fetus, and finally the other tamer which seems much more level headed.

And just as she expected, the red-haired tamer called Revis, came in front of Olivas, blocking the Adventurers from approaching him.

Ais readied her sword once again for another clash.

“Revis…!” Finding hope, Olivas stood up again while smiling, “Heh, that’s right. We surpassed all other races when we were chosen by ‘her’! There’s no way we’d lose! Buy me some time, Revis. Once I’ve healed up, we can attack them together and…”

However, Revis interrupted his words and muttered, “What a farce.”

“…Huh?” Olivas couldn’t understand her.

Revis then suddenly turned to his direction and used her hand to pierce through his chest, grabbing his richly-colored magic stone, “!?”

Everyone was surprised at the sudden turn of events. Even Olivas didn’t see it coming, “Re…vis… What… are…!?”

“I need more power, that’s all. No matter how many Violas I eat, it doesn’t amount to much.” Revis explained simply while she tries to pull out Olivas’s magic stone.

“…Wait! I’m a Human chosen by ‘her’ just like you…!” Olivas tried to reason with her.

“Chosen? Do you think that thing is a Goddess or something?” In response, however, Revis only sneered at him, “There’s no way that thing is an empyreal existence. You and me… We are just its tentacles.”

Even then, Olivas continued to speak, “Are you seriously going to kill your only comrade!? If I’m not there, you can’t protect…” But his words were cut short when Revis finally pulled out his magic stone and like any other monster, Olivas turned into ashes as he dropped down with regret on his face.

“Don’t misunderstand.” Revis muttered to the dead Olivas as she threw the magic stone in her mouth, “I’ve always had to protect it myself, and I’ll keep on doing so.”

‘….!?’ Ais could feel the sudden surge in magic power from Revis, ‘Was that a magic stone?’ Since she didn’t know Olivas’s true form as she busy fighting Revis, she asked internally.

Revis then faced Ais again and suddenly disappeared from her spot, “!?” Ais had to put up her sword to defend herself from Revis’s sudden strike. However, unlike before, she couldn’t contend in strength anymore and flew away like a meteor, hitting the wall of the pantry. Revis, not letting her go, followed.

“What!?” Even Bete was shocked at this sight as he followed them with his sight.

“What!?” Ais too, couldn’t believe that she suddenly lost in terms of strength and gritted her teeth, ‘She’s like a different person compared to before…!’

“So you’re still able to talk. Guess it wasn’t enough.” With another stroke of her natural weapon, she sent Ais flying again.

“Dang it!” Bete followed them with Lefiya behind, “Ais-san!!”

“She got stronger by eating a magic stone!? Is she a strengthened species or something!?” Lulune also tried to follow them but Asfi immediately stopped her, “Wait!! We won’t be much help in our current state! More than that, we need to focus on that Jewel. It’s definitely at the center of this whole incident! We need to secure that jewel!”

With Asfi’s words, several members of the Hermes Familia immediately moved out now that the only protection of the jewel, Revis, is gone.

However, they were beaten to it when a robed and masked person came to it first and grabbed the jewel, “They still have allies!?”

Revis, on the other hand, shouted to this mysterious figure, “It’s not complete yet, but it’s grown enough!! Take it to Enyo!”

With a masked voice, the robed person answered, “Got it.” And speedily ran away. The Hermes Familia and even the trio tried to catch up to her, but he’s already too far away and very fast.

Sona, Aika, and Koneko knew that Yoruichi could have caught the mysterious person, but she didn’t move from her spot. They now finally realized that they won’t get much assistance regarding this problem that they took on. But instead of being upset from this, the trio only smiled as they knew that they are trusted to be left alone.

“Viscum! Keep giving birth until you shrivel up!!” With another command from Revis, the Viscum silently coiled around the pantry all this time with an unknown purpose, suddenly shook and the light from the crystal became dim as more and more Violas kept emerging from the floor, walls, and ceiling.

“H-hey… Aren’t there too many of them?” Muttered by Hermes Familia’s Vanguard Leader.

Asfi was speechless at the sight of hundreds of Violas emerging. Even with their peak number earlier, it only reached around 50-80 monsters and they are already having a hard time dealing with them, ‘No way… Is it giving birth throughout the entire pantry…!?’

A few of those monsters started diving down towards the group, “They’re coming!!”

“It’s impossible!!”

“Don’t get separated!! You’ll get crushed!!”

‘A monster party! There are 300… No, 400…!? Possibly more!’ Asfi estimated the other party, ‘Up until now, we’ve used up all our weapons, stamina, and reinforcements! We can’t break through this!’

“Please don’t make a face like that, Asfi-san. We’re not done yet.”

“Sona Sitri…? What are you…!?” Before Asfi could finish her words, however, Sona suddenly unleashed her Demonic Power for the first time, “..What… are you…!?”

Corner:

28th00: So, she’s been using the hyper-efficient human mathematical magic formulas instead of her crippled Demonic Power from the start? That’s something. Revis doped up and took a Rare Candy mid-fight, but levels are much different here than in pokemon!

Alexander: Here goes the Cliffhanger again. But now, it is finally time for our Maoh shoujo apprentice to shine.

Goyya: More Sona badass moments later.
