Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~

Chapter 391 - Episode Thirty-Seven - The One that Slaughters History

I point my wand at Sim, who is floating in midair.

However, Sim pushes Gizel’s body to the surface of his spherical body and uses it as a shield.

“If you can shoot it, you can shoot it. Can you do it? You can’t, can you?”

“You …… are you not ashamed against your human opponent?”

“I’m just taking out an insurance policy. We don’t like to take chances. As a part of the providence of this world, the high spirits who have lived for a long time will not put themselves in danger because of temporary emotions like humans. I think it’s far more ridiculous for us to see you guys with all your gaps.”

Sim let out an unpleasant thought as he floated high into the sky.

It seems that more and more people have seen the eerie sphere, and there are intermittent screams from afar.

“W-, why are you moving now ……? To come this far to be ridiculously polite ……”

Shame was also stunned, just looking up at Sim’s eerie figure.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site.

It’s frustrating that we have dragged her, our benefactor, into the conflict between Kudor and Count Julem.

“A-Abel, do you have any magic that can only shoot out spirits?”

Mea asks me.

I bit my lip and shook my head.

There is a magic that is only effective against high-density spirit bodies.

In the first place, the Marren tribe had a strong element of shamanism on Earth, with rituals aimed at communicating with spirits through the Ortem, as well as sorcery that disperses demons and returns them to mere spirits.

However, with a demon of such high rank, even if the magic is used to destroy only the spirit body, the aftermath will probably kill or injure Gizel.

If I were to use an analogy, it would be like unleashing a cannonball made of special medicine to treat a sick person.

It may not be as powerful as a cannonball, but it is still not something that can be fired at a living person and leave them unharmed.

It is possible to destroy the Sim by firing hundreds of rounds at once, but it is impossible to prepare to fire that much magic in succession in this situation.

“I’m not willing to be seen too much or have my magic noticed. So Let’s get this over with.”

Sim’s sphere swelled up.

The body, which was about three meters in diameter, swelled to nearly ten meters in diameter.

There were countless stone arrows floating around it.

“Guh, Transmute”

I transmuted Hydeem Magimetal from the magic power and the ingredients in the air.

A large silvery-white shield protects us above our heads and repels the stone arrows.

“Well, well, are you going to resist? If that’s the case, let’s rain stone arrows all over this city next time, shall we? It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

…… There’s no other choice.

The more time that passes, the more I will be swallowed up by their pace.

If I’m going to do this, I have to avoid Gizel and attack him while he’s in a relaxed state of mind.

“Take that!”

The shield of the Hydeem Magimetal transformed, and three spears were formed as it flew straight into the sky where Sim was floating.

“Wha-!”

If I give him time, he will use the hostage, Gizel as a shield effectively.

In that case, it would be impossible to save Gizel and get out of this situation.

The only thing we can do is to make him think we are on the defensive, attack him, and keep firing in rapid succession.

I’m not going to let Sim kill Gizel, and I’m not going to die and hand Mea over to him.

I have to take a gamble here.

Three spears pierce Sim’s body and make a hole.

They’re not just spears.

The Hydeem Magimetal can have unique effects depending on the ratio of ingredients when it is created and the magic formula.

I’ve inscribed it with the power to weaken the spirit’s power.

The area around the hole in Sim’s body is turning gray.

“N-Now you’ve done it ……! Look, Gizel, your beloved brother doesn’t care what happens to you! Oh, what heartless brother, you poor thing!”

“Go to hell!”

I fire three more shots over his head.

All of the spears pierced Sim again.

As I pointed my wand upward again, Sim’s body transformed, entangling Gizel’s neck and limbs with tentacle-like objects.

‘Try any more! I’m going to rip you out of this girl’s limbs …… In any case, I’ll shred his head off before I’m driven back …… Would you still be okay with that? Think carefully of a path you won’t regret …… I don’t really care, because I’m just going to kill this girl and leave this place if the hostages don’t work. You don’t have a choice!”

“Ughhh……”

…… I wanted to end this somehow before the other side presented me with this option again.

However, at this distance, a magic that takes into account the aftermath of Gizel’s death would be inconclusive.

It’s impossible to defeat Sim all at once.

There was nothing more I could do.

It’s a complete dead end.

If this continues, I will be killed, Mea will be used, and there is little chance that Gizel will survive.

If I let Gizel die, I’ll be saved by Mea.

But there was no way I could think that was okay.

Gizel is my precious sister.

I fell on my knees.

“I-, I’m very sorry about earlier. I know it’s a little late for that. But …… can’t we somehow negotiate now?”

“Hoh~?”

Sim laughed as if he was interested.

I-Is this possible?

“I even have Kudor’s summoning crest! I’ve even managed to significantly reduce her magic! Next time, I’ll try to defeat her all by myself! If you’re worried about me betraying you, you can just take Gizel and Mea hostage!”

It’s uncool, but it’s the only way to go.

If this continues, there’s no telling what they’ll do to Mea.

And Gizel’s life is also in doubt.

Then, I’ll do it.

I originally decided to pull Mea’s hand and run away with the intention of taking on the entire world.

I’ll lick Sim’s feet to stay alive, and if there’s an opening, I’ll do them a lot of damage and get out of there.

“Fufu …… That’s interesting. I’ll think about it.”

“R-Really ……?”

It was all desperation.

I don’t think they’d be so naive as to accept this kind of approach, but perhaps it’s because they’re high-ranking spirits, or perhaps they have an excessive amount of contempt for humans.

In any case, the skin of the neck is now connected ……

“Of course I’m lying, Idiot~! If I think that I could put you down with a hostage, I would have done it from the beginning! Aren’t you too desperate? Gillemeim is working hard to make a copy of you in the first place. He wouldn’t bother to leave behind an original piece of trash with a bad head and personality who might betray him at any moment! When you can’t afford it anymore, you’ll do whatever it takes, huh. Keep your head down and I’ll kill you.”

“Guh ……”

I dropped my hand holding my wand to the ground.

There’s really nothing left to do.

“Bro- …… ther. I’m sorry, just kill me ……”

I could see the tears spilling from Gizel’s closed eyes.

“You know I can’t do that. …… Gizel, you’re my precious sister, after all ……”

“You two siblings are really looking down on me. You don’t know how scary I am. Fufu …… Lastly, I’ll show you what happens to a fool who defies me, Abel. Rejoice, for after I kill you, I will not kill Gizel. Rather, she’ll live forever! Her consciousness will remain intact, but in solitude, she will continue to suffer without moving a finger, as a living stone.

Gizel’s body, which had been on the surface, turned gray and turned into hard stone.

“T-That’s ridiculous ……”

I was staring at Sim with my mouth wide open.

I wonder if this is even possible.

I can’t understand what’s happening.

I can’t believe what I’m seeing.

Is this a dream or an illusion?

“Hahahahahaha! Did you see that? This is the power of my magic, the most terrifying power in the world! Hahahahahaha!”

“Why did he turn the hostage into a solid block of stone on his own ……?”

I couldn’t help but let out a question.

I’ve never understood why such a convenient thing happened so suddenly.

What the hell is Sim up to and what is he thinking?

Is he an idiot?

“A-, Abel ……?”

I made a small flick of my wand and brought Mea’s guard Ortem to my hand and pointed it at Sim.

I put all the magic I could into it.

“Evil, be at peace.”

“Hahahahaha ………… Ha?”

The enormous amount of light emitted from the eyes and mouth of the Ortem enveloped the body of the giant Sim.

The surrounding buildings are covered in the heat of the light, scorching and rotting away.

Originally, this sorcery was used to expel possessed demons peacefully, disintegrate enslaved demons back into spirits without causing suffering when they needed to be disposed of, and extinguish demons that could not be handled roughly due to religious reasons.

It was not intended to be used on dangerous high-ranking demons, as it would be faster to hit them with other magic, but the output was forcibly raised with the Ortem.

I can see that Sim’s body is enveloped in light and melting from this side.

“Ah, Ahhhhhhhhh! Uaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!”

In the light, Sim fades away.

On the way, I saw the petrified Gizel falling, so I carefully lowered her to the ground with wind magic.

But this won’t avoid a major panic in the city ……

“Thank God …… the opponent was dumb.”

“…… Who says I’m dumb?”

When I breathed out a sigh of relief, I saw a melted Sim floating high in the sky.

Although his figure had shrunk to about one meter in length, his eyes were all over his body.

“You’ve really done it, you mere human. ……! You’ve really pissed me off. You’re going to regret making me take you seriously!”

The countless lights in Sim’s body emitted an intense, monstrous glow.

The entire city that was exposed to the light was becoming more and more petrified.

The only thing is, Me, Mea, and Shame are safe.

“W-Why ……?”

The guard Ortem leaped into the air, attracting the suspicious light.

It’s an anti-curse that’s built into the Ortem.

It can nullify magic and sorcery and return it to your opponent.

Sim’s body, which was flying high in the sky, was compressed as if it were being crushed.

“Why ……?”

A handful of stones fell down to us.

I picked it up.

The anti-curse should have a limit to the amount of curse it can handle depending on the magic power put into it beforehand, but it seemed to work without any particular glitches.

The only thing he could do was to use the hostage as a shield, and the curse he relied on was not much.

How could he put himself in the same category as Kudor?

Is it really okay that this is the fourth most threatening?

“He’s more …… weak than I thought.”

It seems that Sim is completely petrified and can no longer maintain his magic, and the petrification curse on the city and Gizel is melting away.
