Chapter 40: (3)

Kaltovich! Leap magic!

Tetsujin raised her voice, uncharacteristically of her. Coming to her senses, Kaltovich began chanting the magic. A magic circle expanded as though to surround the three. Still on his knees, Kamui was continuously casting healing magic. His eyes were tinged with fear, as all he could do was stare at the looming darkness.

They promptly arranged Leap magic. There was no turning back now. Her arms were screaming from constant overuse. But Tetsujin didnt care, she kept shooting her bow. Then, she casted combustion magic to buy them more time. It was a reheating of the previous exchanges of attack and defense. But things didnt go as she expected. The bursting flames were extinguished in an instant.

Im tired of seeing that attack.

They had no choice but to admit it. The existences in front of them were on a completely different level than them. The three of them fell into despair. Tetsujin merely continued to shoot her bow out of momentum. There was no longer any shadow of her previous rapid-fire shooting, and the darkness was closing in. Kamui could only stare dumbfoundedly at the darkness. Kaltovich desperately tried to complete her incantations.

And then, just as the death-carrying darkness was about to engulf them. The magic circle shone even brighter, and the three of them suddenly vanished.

Are you sure about it-degozaru?

Hmm. Well, its okay, isnt it? Im only doing what Tanaka told us to do, after all.

These were the words Tanaka had left them with when he headed out to scout the town.

Standby here until my return. If a monster comes, annihilate it. And dont kill any humans, okay? I dont want to get into trouble, so just adequately drive them away. And dont run off on your own without telling me! Absolutely dont ever leave this place! You can only run away if you think youre in a danger which leaves you with no other choice! But you have to come back here after! And I mean it! Ill cry if youre not here when I return!

The Sukekaku duo had been faithfully carrying out the order that Tanaka had assigned them with. They truly were admirable subordinates.

Its raining, huh.

Unusually, rain began to pour down on the wastelands. Kaku-san gazed as though being moved by it.

A good idea just dawned upon me-degozaru. Dont you think itd be cool to erect a barrier to keep us from the rain?

Hou

Kaku-san was intrigued by his partners wonderful suggestion. He was showing the face of a master who was pleased with the growth of his beloved pupil.

Lets give it a try it then!

Kaku-san promptly erected a barrier. The rain began to avoid the two of them in a dome-shaped manner. The two of them struck a cool pose inside of it. As the rain poured even more heavily, a curtain of water was created around them. The spectacle was truly fantastic.

Im looking forward to Tanaka-donos return-degozaru.

The Skekaku duo continued to wait for Tanaka in a cool pose. The rain continued to fall heavily as if to give them its blessing.
