Volume 2 - CH 347

Chapter 8-19. The battle situation is favorable.

The villagers all put their fists together and shot water bullets {sharp} with their water bullet gauntlets.

Although the accuracy was inconsistent, they had succeeded in reducing the number of enemies.

Looking at this alone, I would say that this skill was a great success.

However, there is a problem.

As long as that gate exists, it is highly likely that devils will continue to spring up.

We have to do something about the gate, but I wonder if that is something I can do with Tenwari (Heavenly Slash). ……

“There’s no point in thinking about it! Let’s do it! [Tenwari]!”

From the top of the city walls, wielding the Hakuryuzen sideway, I unleashed Tenwari toward the gate.

Immediately after that attack, the bundled devils avoided only the tenwari and began attacking the ground troops as well.

Although not a single devil was dropped, the attack reached the gate well.

However, …….

Tenwari slipped through the gate and only ended up cutting through the clouds in the distance.

That thing was not made physically, but by magic.

So a physical attack couldn’t work!

I immediately focus on the haze manipulation to see what’s going on now.

The army of over several thousand devil was being confronted by Houen with flame magic.

The ground troops were carefully killing the devils that had come down, and the reinforcements that had been away were almost ready to arrive.

The villagers with their water bullet gauntlets are plunging their hands into the water before the bullets run out, refilling their water and aiming at the devils.

The ground troops’ lean movements and water bullet gauntlets capable of firing in rapid succession.

The devils that emerged did not use magic or any other means, but merely tried to catch people and lift them up into the sky.

Although they do not seem to be capable of combat, any human being who is lifted high into the sky and dropped will be seriously injured or, at worst, killed.

Although the enemy air force was overwhelmed by the simple sheer force of numbers, not a single one of them was able to lift a human being up into the air and drop them.

However, the soldiers of Bamil territory were also struggling.

Compared to enemies walking on the ground, enemies flying in the sky are difficult to target.

Without a magic unit, it was very difficult to deal with them.

Still, …….

“We can do it!”

Although there are some who have been caught by the devils and are suffering from minor injuries so far, none of them are seriously injured.

All of them are still able to fight.

As long as this situation continues, it seems that we will be able to turn back the enemy’s attack.

All I can use is a …… water spears volley or a reamed water spears.

Ah, but I’ll let those skills, which I didn’t use in the end, burst out in front of the gate.

The bomb I had prepared with compressed air is placed in front of the gate.

Since it is an invisible bomb, it would be impossible to avoid it.

Furthermore, the avalanche of devils that are still appearing.

It will certainly bury a lot of devils.

[Detonate!]

PHAAAANG!

With a dry sound, the air explodes.

The force of the explosion is tremendous, and it is able to repel most of the devils in the surrounding area.

A large amount of remains fell to the ground.

“Hell yeah! How’s that! I guess range attack skills will be better this time. Let’s make some!”

As soon as the attack method is decided, I start compressing the air again to make another air bomb.

Since it takes a little time to create, I’ll have to let the others fight for now. ……

Nevertheless, we may not have to worry about that.

The villagers are shooting down the devils before they come this way.

Therefore, I was able to concentrate on making bombs.

So far, the ground troops have not suffered any damage, and the man troopers are using spears, and the Oni are jumping and swinging their metal crushing clubs.

Leiton, Zirnia’s butler, is in command of this area.

He communicated precise information to his subordinates and shared that information through the communication crystal.

The reason there was no waste in action was probably due to Laiton’s involvement.

Kahn-kahn-kahn-kahn!

An alarm bell, no less alarming than over here, rang out from a different direction.

When I looked to see what it was, I saw that trees in the forest were being pushed over in the distance.

The trees seemed to be getting closer and closer to us.

“The enemy ground troops!”

I immediately give orders to the soldiers below the city walls.

“Leiton!”

“!”

Leiton notices my voice and turns toward me.

After confirming this, I immediately jump down.

I take out one of my water spears volley, grab it, and hang on to it as I descend.

“What’s going on!”

“The enemy ground troops! I want to send the Oni to them!”

“No problem! We can manage with my men and the support of the people of Bamil!”

“My bad! Please contact the Oni through the communication crystals! Tell them to head for the forest!”

“Understood! Hey! Did you hear that!”

A soldier who had been listening to the conversation immediately sent instructions to the communication crystal.

Within a few minutes, everyone was informed and the Oni once back inside the Bamil territory.

After confirming this, I went back to the top of the wall to bombard the horde of devils.

This side is not a problem since there is me and Houen.

Judging by the fact that Uchikage hasn’t come this way yet, I guess he might have gone to the far side.

Excellent.

“Ouen-san!”

“What’s wrong!”

“We’re running out of water! Please replenish it!”

“It wasn’t enough?! Alright, I’m on my way!”

Enough with the bomb-making.

Under the current circumstances, running out of water is more of a problem.

As soon as I hear the report, I’ll head that way.

The situation is prevailing…… and we’ll keep it that way!
