77-077-Interceptor System for Invaders

'The Sevenfold Magic Barrier (Seventh Absolute)!

The defensive magic of the white-robed man's full strength caught the giant fist of the Greater Demon approaching in front of him.

As its name suggests, the seven-layered wards bundled together have strong reflective capabilities, and the Greater Demon that received the sudden counter was sent flying with the recoil as it was, gliding across the earth while cleaving down the trees of the forest.

''Huh.........''

Perhaps because he jumped out of the way on the spur of the moment, the white-clad man's hood came off, revealing his face.

And the believers who saw the figure were even more astonished than when they found out that Zwei's true identity was the War Wolf.

After all, the identity of the magician who had just rescued Zwei was supposed to be in prison, "one of the culprits who kidnapped Princess Priscia, Magician Wagner"....

''Are you all right, Zwei-dono!

''........Why are you helping me?''

Of course you do.

Wagner nodded his head in agreement with Nestal's words, and he answered the question he had just asked.

'No matter what your birth or race, it is true that Lord Zwei has saved many people so far. And it doesn't change the fact that you saved us from the dungeons. I won't let you get ahead of me before I repay that debt.

What?

That is to say, even the two men who had soiled their hands with such a felony that they had lost their own position in the world to bring about a human-centered world, were saying that their sense of worth was meaningless in helping Zwei.

Looking at them, the believers who had been giving Zwei the cold shoulder looked away awkwardly.

''What an ironic feeling, isn't it?''

The kidnapping of Princess Pricia, once initiated by Nestal and Wagner with the goal of "creating a human-centered society," has ended up granting rights to the forest dragons, in direct contradiction to their goal.

Once again, as a result of the actions of the parties involved with the same goal, the good deeds of Zwei, the high priest who was the driving force behind the action, ended up denying the premise that human beings are righteous.

In the first place, your true intentions have been inadvertently revealed. You said earlier that he said, "Why are you helping me?", but you said that being killed by that thing was your salvation?

Zwei was completely disheartened by Elena's tome.

By any chance, he's still holding on to the fact that he was called a servant of the devil or something...!

"There will be no one left who agrees with your idea of salvation. Shut down this system as soon as possible!

But Zwei shook his head and nodded his head as he forcefully dropped to the ground on both knees.

'As far as I know, there is no way to stop the savior........ The book that Dr. Einz left behind doesn't contain anything beyond the chapter on world purification.

What kind of nonsense is that?

After taking the Bible from Zwei, Elena began to look through the end of it.

I can't quite read what is written in it, but it is clear that the contents are not very good because the expression on Elena's face looks as if she has bitten down on a bitter bug.

''........Who translated this?''

"Wow, it's me. Is there a mistake...?

[Mechanism for correcting heretics who disrupt the world]

When all of the world has been defiled by the heretics, this art will return all life to the pristine sea.

The Saviour will save the world, unifying all without discrimination between believers and apostates.

[Interceptor system for otherworldly invaders]

This is the final program to be executed only if the invaders are to be intercepted when the extinction of life on the world in question has been confirmed.

Although the administrator's goal is to save the world, the attack summoned monsters do not have the ability to distinguish between friend and foe, so use it deliberately.

''..........Fatal nuance!

Elena dropped the Bible under her feet with a litter and could only watch in amazement as the Greater Demon slowly approached from beyond the wild forest.

''Utterly, why is the god of this world always doing this kind of unnecessary things!

Shall I shoot Efreet...?

Although I casually suggest it, Elena's complexion remains unsettled.

''The Greater Demon's resistance to fire and water is about the same. But Efreet's attack power........is about 30% of Eternal Blizzard Nova's.......''

Efreet, for such a flamboyant flame, it's surprisingly weak!

No, you could say that Elena is just an order of magnitude stronger, but that means........

Is it dead?

'In theory, if Kanata-san and I fired six more rounds each, we could take it down... but...'

....

I can consume quite a bit of magic just to summon an Efreet once, and although Elena can string together magic if there's a lot of water, like at sea, that's not expected in this warm, forested area of the Jewel Continent.

In other words, we can't defeat a single Greater Demon on our own, and after a while, two, three.................they will start to multiply.

When I was fighting as a member of a brave party, I used to defeat them after weakening them with the magic defense nullification skill of the legendary sword given by the brave Kanemitsu, and after I left the party, I could defeat them with a single poison bottle, but I don't have those extremely effective cards now.

''Vo-ooh-ooh!!!''

A Greater Demon screaming in the distance opened its mouth wide, and a vortex of magic power began to gather towards its center.

[Crisis Sensing]

There is a high lethal skill reaction.

The acid breath, which is much more huge than the thing released towards His Highness Linus, fills (charges).

Needless to say, he's aiming at all of us...!

'Elena, put your defensive magic to work!　Whoever is in possession of the Sacred Attribute Skill, let the defensive wards come out of this place!　Please!

However, the group that is still in turmoil is useless, and only a few of them started chanting defensive magic as instructed.

''d*mn it, this is not going to--!

........And just when I thought I had run out of ideas, an unexpected figure appeared in front of us.

--The person was petite like an infant, with wavy blonde hair and red eyes like flames.

-- The star-shaped emblem on her uniform's armband indicated that she was the most talented in Emera City Magic Academy.

''Really, those church people are so incompetent, aren't they?''

Sharon laughed in dismay as she said that, and she looked much more confident than she had seen before.
