Chapter 56-The Dragon and the Unsullied
(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)
It was gray and emaciated, its wings torn as if rotting, lying still as if dead.
But the oppressive feeling that it was not, surged toward me, and the fear it aroused made my knees tremble.
It is alive. And it wants to harm us.
"Look, gentlemen. That is the end of the ...... Abyss Gate."(Saga)
"This is ......, really?"(Marina)
"Such a thing like that"(Silk)
Marina and Silk stared at it with wide eyes. They were probably shocked to see that our dream had reached a point that was completely different from what they had imagined.
I was shocked as well, but when I saw the actual thing, I felt I could understand it somehow.
"Well, it has gone beyond it."(Rain)
Rain, who had arrived at the same conclusion as I did, muttered quietly.
In front of us, the presence emanating from the dragon, which looked like a corpse, changed.
The dragon had previously been a kind of deepened sense of rejection, but now it was directing clear dislike, hatred, and harm toward us.
"Twenty years ago, we, the advance team that reached the deepest part of the Abyss, were confronted with this. This is the "Demon King" who has attempted to invade this world using the "Abyss Gate" as a catalyst."(Saga)
"...... "Demon Lord"?"(Yuki
"Yes, you could call it "elimination" or "cull". The other world that came to our world via the "tower" that extends to all worlds. This is the conceptual aggregate."(Saga)
Slowly, the dragon raises its head.
Glaring at us with its pupil-less eye sockets.
"Anyway, it's an enemy, isn't it?"(Yuki)
"At least it doesn't look friendly!"(Jamie
Jamie readies her staff and Nene draws her dagger.
"Prepare for battle!"(Yuki)
With that shout, I spread out the [scroll of multi-enchantment scrolls that grant multiple enhancements].
Since we don't know what it will do, the protection of this handy scroll is the minimum insurance policy.
"Something's wrong! Nene, stop!"(Marina)
Marina calls to Nene, who was about to step forward to check her.
She was quicker to react and give orders than I was.
"Lun, get behind us. Yuki, give the orders."(Silk)
"All hands, tactical standby at your current location. That thing is not good. ......!"(Yuki)
Slowly, something like rotting flesh crumbles from the dragon's epidermis as it slowly takes shape and ...... rises.
It was unlike the Shadow Man Shadow Stalker, though it gave off a similar sign.
Its eyes, glowing viciously, are the same as those of the Shadow Stalker, but its head is round and smooth, and its mouth, split open in half, is lined with sharp teeth.
Its gray body was somewhat metallic, with a dull sheen, long limbs with uneven spines, and a tail that dangled lethargically.
"Uncle, what is that?"(Yuki)
"Marignant the Defiler or simply Malignant Defiler, that's what they call him among the walkers. They're like termites, eating up the world. They're tough."(Saga)
My uncle draws the long sword from his waist and holds it at the ready.
Even as he speaks, the Unsullied Marignants are emerging one after another from the mass of flesh.
The number of them is five.
"We've got to deal with them before they grow any more, or we'll be outnumbered,......."(Saga)
"Rain, Jamie! Use wide-area magic to strike first! Silk, you're in charge of checking and holding them back. Nene, play tank! Marina, you've got to get in there when the time is right!"(Yuki)
"What about me?"(Saga)
He asked standing beside me, and I couldn't help but choke up.
My uncle laughs a little amusedly and accelerates.
"I'm just kidding. I'll do what I want."(Saga)
This is the kind of composure that is needed in a situation like this. My teacher is as bold as ever.
But I made the mistake of not expecting to give any instructions to my uncle.
I didn't expect this to happen.
No, it is possible that I ...... meant that we didn't think so.
I'm sure there must have been a reason why my uncle didn't give us any advance information.
The depths of The Tower are vague and unstable.
It is a place that changes its appearance according to the perceptions of the walkers who cross it.
For example, as in the case of the hierarchical leap jump using the stairs, only my uncle may have been able to determine the space by knowing the destination of the door.
Anyway, now is not the time to be thinking.
My uncle did not need me to deal with Marignant the Defiler.
I knew this for sure the moment I saw the dragon.
It was something I had to deal with - the kind of thing only I could handle.
"《Ice Blizzard》!"(Rain)
"《Rock storm》!"(Jamie)
Two kinds of destructive winds swept through the dragon and Malignant the Defiler.
On one side was the blizzard that Rain had called forth. The other was a swirling mudslide unleashed by Jamie.
Both sides are successfully activating the difficult-to-control fifth rung of the ladder magic.
I thought to myself, "Jamie, when did you learn such difficult magic ......," as I fired a series of weakening spells at the still-moving Unsullied Malignants.
The feeling of the weakening magic being applied to the Malignant Undead is terribly uncomfortable and peculiar.
It is unpleasant to feel as if you are forcibly weakening the undead through physical manipulation.
It feels like touching sticky sewage on my fingertips, and I feel like I want to lift the debuff.
But I can't help it.
I can't afford to be complaining.
I am a red mage. The most important thing to do is to create opportunities for the flowery vanguard - Marina and Nene - to play an active role.
"It's hard"(Nene)
The small dagger she swung was bounced off the epidermis, and Nene moved away.
The wound was inflicted, but not fatal, and Malignant the Defiler attacked Nene with a voice that sounded like an unpleasant metallic noise.
But it ...... falls over on the spot.
"I've got a tipping snare! Finish him off!"(Yuki)
"Yes! I've got some moves of my own, considering we alse have a samurai in armor."(Nene)
Nene, who has switched her kodachi to her opposite hand, aims at Malignant the Defiler's neck as if to dive into it.
The dagger bites into the head of Malignant the Defiler, and it is not long before it leaps off the head.
"Haaaaah!"(Marina)
Marina swings her black sword and cuts through the two Malignant Defilers.
The hard skin of the Malignant Unsullied is of no concern to Marina, who is both a "mage" and a "samurai".
"Sensei, that's not good!"(Silk)
Just as I was thinking naively that we could push through with this, Silk suddenly grabbed me in her arms and we fell to the floor.
TL Note- Everyone ignored dragon as it didn't even exist.
