64. Ifrit. (2)

Rest.

With Elena reciting the name, flames spread through the passage of magical power in the air.

A dark red flame that burns brightly as if it would burn all of Elena’s magical power within a short time.

“…… Quit.”

A burning pain, as if the whole body is on fire.

Elena, who had been roaming her devastated land for nearly a month and did not show her pain, let out a short moan.

The painful heat that engulfed Elena’s mana just by chanting her name.

However, even this must be endured.

What spirit does Elena want to summon? Because it’s a spirit that deserves it.

Seeing that familiar flame, Chrono widened his eyes.

A dark red fire flame.

As far as Chrono knew, there was only one spirit with such a flame.

-…… Contractor, please. Are you thinking of signing a contract with ‘that guy’ again?

In response to Chrono’s question, Elena barely moved her body and nodded her head lightly.

From noble mtl dot com

Freak out——!

The fireworks just now seemed like a joke.

In the passage Elena created, a huge pillar of flame appeared.

-Is that the one who called my name? Human spirits.

From within that pillar of flame, a piece of enormous power appeared.

“…… Heh, heh.”

Helena’s ability to handle spirits is exceptional.

She was to the extent that no one dared to catch up with the times.

A flame so huge that even she couldn’t handle it right now.

Elena couldn’t even breathe properly from the heat.

After looking at it for a moment, the flame spirit briefly clicked her tongue.

– Tsk. I would have thought he was a kid who couldn’t even handle his strength. I’ll take care of it this time, so from now on, summon a spirit that matches your level.

After saying that, Ifrit tried to return to the spirit realm.

Elena, who gritted her teeth and managed to get her body up, spat out one word at a time as if she were going to vomit.

“Don’t go back. Such care…… Because I don’t need it.”

Looks like he’s desperate. Elena said that as she stood up with her trembling legs.

Chrono, who couldn’t see it, tried to help at least.

As if she didn’t even need that, Elena shook it off and met Ifrit’s eyes.

-…… Like.

What can be seen, albeit shallowly, from within the pillar of flame is the eyes of the gigantic flame giant.

The giant’s pupils stood apart.

Rage. And even more desperate.

The desire in Elena’s eyes was different from the eyes of those who greedily coveted Ifrit’s power.

-…… I will respect your opinion. My name is Ifrit. What do you want?

He is a spirit of flame that handles ‘fire’. A spirit that had contracted with Elena once in the past before her return.

Ifrit, the fire spirit king.

Let’s ask what you want.

After catching her breath, Elena spoke clearly.

“You will become a sword.”

-…… Are you saying that you will use me like a tool?

“Yes. A sharp-edged sword that removes elements that could harm its ‘master’. Any complaints?”

A spiritist who treats the flame spirit king as nothing more than a tool.

Originally, I wouldn’t have listened to those unpleasant words anymore and simply burned them.

Ifrit was smiling. Like it’s very interesting.

-…… That must be fun.

The arrogant expression she calls ‘master’.

At least it didn’t seem like he was referring to Elena herself.

Rather, if I had to ask.

Even she feels like she is being treated as a ‘tool’.

It didn’t look like a knight who devoted allegiance to someone.

As much as the blind emotion felt in that tone, ifrit did not yield to any knight he saw.

-Yes. Do not accept I wish you well.

On top of the desolate land, devoid of life.

The flame of fire has manifested solely to destroy the demons.

“… ….”

Fluffy.

The wolf you thought would never be defeated.

The girl who inherited the blood of the silver wolf slowly knelt in the arena with her body covered in blood.

…… Lin is defeated.

Mutuje semi-finals.

To decide who will advance to the finals. A battle that should have been fierce.

The victory or defeat was decided in an instant.

The process of winning and losing was overwhelming.

The man who stood against Rin was a black-haired swordsman.

I knew who the opponent was.

In the first qualifying match of the Mutou Festival, a human who is presumed to be the culprit who swept about half of the qualifying field.

Of course Rin knew that it wasn’t her opponent’s fault.

It was Cale, not him, who made that overwhelming inaction in her first qualifier.

But she didn’t see that as a reason to belittle her opponent.

Leave the truth behind…… The story of being misunderstood for being someone who accomplished Cale’s achievements.

In other words, it also meant that he had the ability to be misunderstood.

Looking back on memories.

The start of the duel was accomplished with her man opening his mouth.

“…… It smells like a vile, hateful wolf pup.”

“… ….”

A very low level provocation.

At that level, Rin didn’t get shaken anew.

Because among the people of the empire, those who had a good view of the north were rather rare.

Of course, the man’s voice was somewhat different from that simple dislike, but…….

Because it wasn’t even worth worrying about.

Sereung.

However, after drawing the sword, Rin silently pointed it at her man.

Once.

Now, if she wins just one more time, she will meet Cale at Mutou Festival.

That’s why, I had no intention of losing to anyone.

Puuu!

– Match, start!

The trumpet that announces the start of the game.

At the same time, Rin, who accelerated her steps, approached the distance in a single step.

Taat!

A distance that is sure to reach if you swing your sword.

The man was staring into the air as if he couldn’t even respond to Rin’s speed.

Just like that, she tried to swing the sword.

“…… Bugs.”

Suddenly, the man who turned his eyes to Rin pulled out his sword.

Clap.

The moment the man draws out his sword.

In just that moment, Rin’s body froze.

A feeling of pressure that gives the illusion of having her nemesis in front of her.

It’s so savage that I can’t understand what it’s called human energy.

A violent, most ferocious spirit.

Is this really magic? Is it a power that can only be called magical power?

Even kale. …… No, even my father, the chief of the Eunrang tribe, did not possess such vile magic power.

It’s not just about the size of magical power…… More essential than that, a huge sense of gap felt in the ‘species’ itself.

The crab right in front of you.

…… Are you really human?

Such a monster…… Can you call me human?

Wedge juice——!

While Rin’s body froze, her man’s sword rushed at Rin.

When I saw that sword, I instinctively thought of it.

‘…… Die.’

Death.

The sentence of death came in the form of a sword as a kind of certainty.

Can be avoided. Can’t attack

“…… !”

Kaaang!

The reason Rin managed to get rid of that was not a conscious act.

It must have been an instinctive defense close to unconsciousness.

“…… Huh, I thought I would accept it.”

Taat!

With trembling arms, Rin took a few steps back.

It’s dangerous.

He wasn’t an opponent who could do things like liver checkups.

I couldn’t feel it no matter what test I put in front of me.

The fear of life itself being threatened.

“…… Quit.”

Rin, who let go of her sword, used the strong god.

The wolf’s tail and ears grow. All senses are sharpened even more.

Kang Shin.

It is to put a part of the ancient wolf spirit into a human body.

Bodily abilities and strengthening of the five senses were only very trivial.

Wolf eyes, not human eyes.

When Rin opened it.

Only then, she was able to gaze completely at the man in front of her eyes.

Has a human body.

That ‘something’.

Shrouded in darkness, the feeling of being trapped in mud.

A heavy fear grips her chest as if breathing is tight.

Even when dealing with any monster.

She has never felt this pressure, even while fighting an opponent that seemed impossible to defeat.

And the source of that fear. He looked at Rin with eyes glistening with disgust.

And she said.

“Did you see it? No. …… You saw it.”

The sword that shoots with him.

Quang!

Rin barely twisted her body, avoiding her man’s sword.

Continuous hits as if hitting the floor.

“…… hahahaha.”

Taat.

Rin, who rolled behind her and avoided it, looked at her man.

I couldn’t stop it because it was a desperate swordsmanship.

Like Cale’s, she dared not predict the end of the blade.

It’s not like that.

He was holding a sword. He was wielding a sword.

That wasn’t swordsmanship.

What if Rin, who has not yet been able to control her spirit, wants to wield her sword, and she becomes a ‘wolf imitating swordsmanship’.

Her man was holding a sword in the first place, but she didn’t even try to use a human skill called ‘swordsmanship’.

It’s just a weapon in my hand.

Rin grabbed her trembling arm with her other hand and raised the wolf’s claws.

Hook.

Eunrang’s claws were sharp. Compared to him, she was soft on her skin.

Her claws lightly dig into her arms, and trickles of blood trickle down her forearms.

“…… Whoa.”

The fishy smell of blood.

Although her skin was quite sore.

At the same time, the tremors of fear also stopped.

I have no intention of losing here.

What the hell is the opponent doing?

Hello, I don’t know if that’s a human.

Being terrified and losing without being able to fight properly was something I didn’t want.

“…… Again.”

Rin, who caught her breath, looked directly at her man.

There is no room for fear.

But I will win.

Pray for the strength of the wolf.

Rin’s magical power was shining silver like the moon.

There is an illusion that the world is immersed in darkness, which must have been midday when the sun rose in the sky.

From noble mtl dot com

And in the highest of the darkness.

A huge moon rose.

That alone.

The darkened area began to become brighter than the sun.

Silver Rang(銀狼), no. Eunwolrang (銀月狼).

The wolf that Rin’s tribe enshrines is originally the Wolf of the Silver Moon.

The silver wolf’s moon shines with a cool light.

I was floating in the sky with that cold feeling.

The spirit of the river god filled her whole body.

A sense of omnipotence enveloped Rin’s body as if he could do anything.

And the man standing in front of the moon spoke quietly.

“——You pitiful wolf cub.”

Quick.

Her man swung a sword, and with it.

The moon that floated in the sky cracked and began to crumble.

“…… Heck, heck.”

Wow!

Rin coughs up her blood in disbelief.

The moon created with the energy of Eunwolang. When it was simply broken, her magic power flowed backwards within her body.

She barely aimed at her body before she even clenched her fist.

Pu-wook——.

Her man’s knife dug deep into Rin’s abdomen.

“Why don’t you bark once? If it’s a wolf cub. That would suit you better.”

The man who came right in front of Rin and muttered that.

She could feel it in that moment.

I had no choice but to realize.

The man in front of me is not an opponent that can be defeated by mere determination.

You can’t win no matter what.

Let’s realize that. On the contrary, a smile came out.

“…… Try barking. Then. I will bark.”

Awkward.

Having said that, Rin grabbed the sword that pierced her abdomen with both hands.

I can’t win.

Even if it was, there was no law saying that it should be lost.

“What nonsense… ….”

“The moon. It’s still floating.”

The moon that the man destroyed.

It was shattered, so it couldn’t send out the same power as before.

At least once. Because I could explode like this.

Kwaaang——!

An explosion of magical power.

Lin couldn’t avoid the explosion either.

For sure, the moon exploded right in front of her man’s nose.

“Chuck…… You bastard bug!”

“… ….”

The noise of the world is far from your ears. The front of my eyes is blurry.

The man let out a painful moan as if in anger.

Rin’s consciousness was already drifting away.

Fluffy.

Soon after, her legs gave out and Rin fell to her knees.

It was Rin’s defeat.
