Knight's & Magic

Volume 7, Chapter 101 The Young Sorcerer, Fought

“Well then, let’s review about many kinds of magic today!”

“Yes, Magister Addy. I count on you”

A cheerful voice has resonated in the corner of the forest. It was Addy and young Sorcerer daily training regime. Due to the place around the goblin village have been destroyed, those two girls had to go much farther location. There was a sign of scratched rock around them, it was a destructive power which had been shown by the young Sorcerer hard work.

Along with line of sight of young Sorcerer who is riding a boulder around her, Addy began to swing her gunstaff.

“If it is the matter of destructive power alone, I think from explosive system is the best!”

“Fumu”

Fire arms——the gunstaff, the imitation of a weapon that doesn’t exist on this world, a flaming bullet is fired from the tip of the gunstaff. A flower of fire bloom as soon as it reached the target.

“Wind system is useful for defense or want to move fast!”

After activating the Aero Thruster on her heels, with that burst-like reaction, Addy’s body is flying up in the air. When she tries to land on the young Sorcerer shoulder, she then returns on the top of the rock lightly.

“But it might be difficult for a giant who have a more body weight”

“Yes. The magic consumption is way too much when I tried to use it”

The young Sorcerer sadly nods in agreement. Although she is still young and light, it seems her affinity with the magic is not good at all.

“The last one is from Lightning system! Although it is troublesome to operate and the range is limited, but it is almost impossible to evade instead”

As she extended the gunstaff, and aim to the target. Immediately afterwards, a sound of thunder roaring on today fine weather. The roar along with the spear of light are smashing the target and destroyed it. Lightning system is certainly having unmatched accuracy and impossible to evade, however it has a flaw about the mana consumption will become heavy as soon as it shoots on the distance.

“As expected of Magister. For a Sorcerer, one must have many kinds of magic, right!”

In front of the young Sorcerer who doesn’t hide her adoration, Addy looked happily with her head held high.

“Didn’t Parl-chan also has been able to use many kinds of magic too, I’m wrong?”

“Uuu, I still have long way to go????How can Addy Magister and Eru Magister were able to remember that much”

Suddenly, the young Sorcerer is feeling dejected for some reason. Leaving aside someone like Ernesti who will remember anything as long as it was concerned with the Silhouette Knight. She has been working hard to keep up with Addy and Eru. As expected, their years in training were different after all.

“If you can understand the basic, then the rest would be practical use. That’s why Eru-kun will review about that matter!”

“Yesh, I will do my best???”

The young Sorcerer was arranging the information while drawing a script on the ground. No matter how much they had to leave it with their senses, they couldn’t help themselves to learn it even with that alone. In the end, the only one that can save them is hard work.

After a while, Addy who just recently reviewing along with the young Sorcerer, suddenly began to stand up. She is listening to the surrounding with a sharp-like expression on her face.

“????Be careful, Parl-chan. Something is, coming”

Her sense that had been trained as one of Fremmevira’s knight, was telling her about something is coming near them. The young Sorcerer gets up immediately and also look up to find a presence on her surroundings.

“A beast?”

“I suppose so. I don’t mind if it just few of them, but it would be bad if they come in group. Let’s get away from here????”

She cut her lines in the middle way, and look at the back of the forest. On that direction, a heavy sound reaches out to her continuously. Soon after that, the sound is mixed with the teared down trees, and then showing their appearance.

“????Eh. Is that, a beast?”

After seeing the whole body, Addy couldn’t help to show her bewilderment. The young Sorcerer was also opened her eyes in surprise.

That is something looked-like a titan, who shaped like a human. However, the most striking difference between them is the whole body that covered in distorted shell. For a moment, it does look like an armor, but they are soon realized it was not an armor after looking at the several eyes on the pointed-like chest. It was a creature that they never heard before. And they are five of them, poking their head out between the trees.

“I do not know. But I don’t think I have meet them either”

“They are not cute at all!”

Those ‘variant titan’ were openly showing a cautious behavior in front of Addy and young Sorcerer. The claw attached on the long arms, now pointed out to those girls. Then, a portion bellow the head part is opened. Was it mouth or something, from the inside a cried can be heard. And then, after several strange growls continues, they start to come forward slowly.

“Mu. Aren’t they intend????to fight with us”

The young Sorcerer faltered while facing her palm. Although she has been trained in magic, given the immatureness of her age, her experience in fighting is still green. Hence, Addy who has jumped into her shoulder, whispering to the young Sorcerer’s ear.

“Parl-chan. Release the fire ball magic”

“There are too many enemies, Magister”

With the young Sorcerer current power, it sure difficult to deal with them. Her mana would likely to run out first if she does that.

“I know. Just fall back after slowing them down with the barrage. The Brave-san will surely come if he heard someone’s fighting”

“I see. I’m sure the Brave will be dealt with them in one glance on this kind of situation!”

On the four eyes of hers, a strength is overflowing to her arm. There’s no need for her to confront with them alone. Eru is at the village, while the Kaellous’ clan members are in the vicinity.

Addy who was riding on her shoulder, cautiously looking at the surrounding. Although she is fine if her alone, but right now the young Sorcerer is with her. Once they are surrounded, it would be difficult to pass through.

“Unlike beast, their eyes are clouded. Then I do not need to hold back. Flame, come forth (Igniadel)!”

The script that has been knitted up, began to appear into her palm. She throws the curled fireball toward the variant titan after producing it. Leaving a bursting flames that spout and jammed out from the middle of the pack.

The nose of that variant titan has bended in a such unnatural way. And while leaking quiet growling sound, they went to left and right avoiding the flame.

By using that gap, the young Sorcerer tries to turn back her body and return to the way where the village is located.

“I don’t know what happened but we will stand victorious if we able to flee, right!”

Following the young Sorcerer, Addy was also running through the sky.

◆

A little further away from the young Sorcerer training ground. The Third-eyed Seat of Brave (Fortissimos De Terrias Okyrs) was moving his forehead’s eye around.

The Servant asked worriedly to the Brave who has been looking at the air for a while.

“Is something wrong”

“The wind. I can see the gust of someone who fighting”

“My eyes didn’t reflect that sort of thing. Where is it????”

The Servant makes his giant eye swirling around. In response of that, the Brave moving his three eyes to look around but eventually he realized what it was. There is a presence of somebody in a certain direction.

“That’s the direction of the young Sorcerer where it’s at! We must hurry, my fellow comrade!!”

“Wha! Ou, let’s go with the Brave!!”

Following the Brave who start running without hesitation, every Kaellous clan’s member began to dash away at once.

With the silhouette arms that used for training on their arm.

◆

The young Sorcerer has been running around toward the goblin village. By using her small body as an advantage and running through straight away between the trees. However——

“Mu, they are!? Fast!”

Those variant titans, despite their distorted shape, they were quicker than the young Sorcerer. The distance they have made in the beginning, little by little catching up with the young Sorcerer. The heavy footsteps come closer to her back and turned around unintentionally. She looks at the enormous swayed claw and it is coming down to her back without mercy.

“Gale, gather (Vent)!”

The moment she shakes her fist, a mass of compressed gas is created. The variant titan has halted the attack and avoiding the direct impact. With that, the young Sorcerer has managed to increase the gap but the other variant was able to overturn and sealed up the escapes route.

“Fuh, ha???!! This is nothing????”

The young Sorcerer is still unskilled. It’s hard to say her magic is powerful enough when used. Furthermore, without prior knowledge of fighting while running, her breath soon reaches its limit and lost her calmness.

By restraining the closed in variant titan using her palm, not to mention how long she can hold them away. Addy who moving around the trees has come by jumped to her.

“Calm down, Parl-chan! Catch up your breath first!”

“Magister????”

“You can use magic only in the short time. When you drive away the enemy. When you knock down the enemy. Aim at the most opportunities you can win!”

“Acknowledged, my Magister. I swear upon these four eyes that I can do it!”

The young Sorcerer is not alone. If someone can guide her, her lack of experience will be compensated. While her breath has become calmer, her four eyes looking at all over place.

Around them, the variant titans are widening their limbs as if they mean to block someone’s path and soon the encirclement will be completed. Before that happen, she faces one direction of the encirclement, standing face to face to the variant titan and jabbing up by using her palm.

The variant titan rolled its long arm and spread out the claw. Then, when they try to stab the young Sorcerer who come close by jumping in.

“Sorry. Our target it’s not that way”

On their line of sight, a small human figure has jumped in. Addy who was riding the variant titan’s head, strongly release a flaming bullet into look-alike eyes without holding back.

A single-handed human might not able to deal some damage. However, the flame will surely block the visibility, and makes the variant titan agitated. With their true purpose revealed, the claw has waved in the air.

“Wind, gather to sever apart (Procillae)!”

The young Sorcerer has jumped to the chest. After gaining assistance of her teacher, she hit the unguarded body with her palm. Without using any unnecessary mana, releasing a simple compressed mass of air. Changed into concentrated and intense shock, blowing off the variant titan.

The path now has opened.

There’s no one who can blockade the young Sorcerer. She began to run all her might. And the village is just before her eyes.

“Magister! Brave! There’s an enemy!!”

After she jumped into the village, as soon she catches her breath, she began to rise her scream and believe her comrade is in here.

However, no one responded to her cry. Every goblin’s villagers are just looking up with a grim face.

“Somebody! There is nobody, in here???!?”

The despair has created a gap.

“Parl-chan! It’s dangerous, take cove???!”

The moment she heard Addy’s warning shout. The fist of the variant titan has grasped the young Sorcerer’s torso. After taking from the back, her body flew into the air once she received the blow.

Feeling suffocated, she crashes into the building in the back without taking any defensive. Slamming through the wall and jammed into the interior, she has disappeared in the dust smoke.

“Hi, hiii! Is that????!!”

“Run!!”

The villagers have screamed and run away. What they can do even a titan can be blown away by one hit. In the first place, there is nothing they can do.

The variant titan who has arrived, entering the village one after another. While leaking a writhed sound, they turn around the neck.

The next moment, in the back of the village, a burst-like explosion has happened. There is the building where the young Sorcerer had previously been rammed in——it’s the workshop.

It’s not an attack from the variant titan, rather than it was blown off from the inside. By keeping their vigilance, they fixed the dust smoke with a gaze.

A quiet full of nervousness raise on the village. The villagers in the goblin village keeps on eye with their mouth in agape, while the variant titan still in alert.

In the middle of that tense air, a piercing strong air inlet sound can be heard. Deep inside the dust, a light is flickering. Giving a dull-like noise, as if something is trying to crawl in there.

In a short moment, the light shines like it’s under water. A rainbow-colored radiance circling around and illuminate the surrounding. The tremendous heavy noise blew away the dust and ‘that’ has made its appearance.

“What is that???”

Addy sighed in impression without realizing. Because it has a shape that way too bizarre. From what she has seen, there is an upper-half humanoid form that float in the air. It was completely something like an uncompleted object——or something dying——that float in the air imposingly.

“Is that, Eru-kun right???? Wasn’t it still uncompleted yet”

Her doubt has blown away in the next moment. Unlike before, ‘that’ has risen more powerful air inlet noises. Then, a light was produced in a space where there should had been an abdomen. The rainbow-colored radiance eventually become brighter and along with that forming a clear shape.

——a Halo (Ring).

It was a rainbow-colored halo. Only the upper part of its body floats on the top of the halo that widens its diameter. No one truly understand what is happening right now.

Then, ‘that’ has stretched its both arm and gently hold the fainted young Sorcerer up in the air.

The armor that had been folded in the back up until now, began to blossom and wraps around it like a cloak. As if to protect itself and the young Sorcerer.

When ‘that’ head moved to extend one corner from the line of the sight. Addy was yelling at the moment she saw the face. Because it was shaped like a skull. On the back of the open eye socket, a light of the crystal swaying on the eyeballs.

“Eh???Eru-kun! What’s gotten with you to have that kind of bad taste!”

In this unexpected situation, the variant titans were also stuck without moving. A cold and fearful stranger voice flies to the such anticipated titan.

“????I don’t really care who are you but it seems my disciple has been attacked. Then you lot is surely my enemies. As for the price, let me use you to become my trial test partner. Prepare yourself”

In the pilot seat of that terribly machine. Ernesti Echavalier looked like he was being petulant.

When he confirming the young Sorcerer condition in the Holomonitor, he reach out his arm to the controller stick.

“Mana pool, 50% remaining”

He can directly send his intention to the Magius Jet Thruster even if he just only grabs it—— full control, every function is based on what he wishes.

“Status check, ‘Ether Ring Generator’ is stable. The Magius Jet Thruster driver also good condition. Then, let us go?????’Kasasagi’. Show your power in here and now”

The sounds of explosion detonation become louder, and the cold and fearful stranger has started to move.
