Chapter 38

38 . Spirit magic

I shot <Geo Greys> before but this was so strong . . even though the magic power was only me and Misha Sasha mutters to herself in amazement as the huge soldier falls to the ground .

. . Surprising

Mishas voice can also be heard from the ice castle .

Nee Arnos, what did you do?

Ive already told you . Listen to your own origin

Even if you say my own origin what does that . ahh

Sasha raised a sound that says shes noticed .

Separation Fusion Reincarnation <Dino Jikusess>? Misha asks

So thats how it is .

Originally Sasha and Misha were one person but <Dino Jikusess> was applied to Sasha and her origin was divided in two and from that Misha was born .

They were supposed to return to one being on their 15th birthday with their magic power increased by a factor of 10, however, I sent Mishas and Sashas origins to the past and had them merge with the 2 origins existing in the past and from that they became 2 separate people .

Its not perfect however due to the fact the origins are newly born but even so, their magic power cannot be compared to their past selves .

Until now Sasha and Misha were unaware of this due to Past Modification <Ingudu> so they believed that their power was the same as before .

This was, however, necessary . Thanks to Time Manipulation <Lebaido> if they were made aware beforehand it would cause a contradiction between the past and the present and if that happened then altering the past would not go well .

However, the conditions of <Ingudu> are now met so the power limiter has disappeared . That is the reason Misha could use fast and highly accurate Construction Creation <Ibis> .

Say so earlier . I might have realised too late and died here .

Sasha lands in the forest and looks around .

Nee . If anyones still alive, please answer . Ill help you .

She calls out but theres no reply .

I can still feel magic power everywhere so I dont think anyones died .

Hows that? Seems your prided castle has been crushed .

I take my eyes of Remote Clairvoyance <Rimnet> and turn to Ray .

Though its disappointing I guess this is my defeat .

He smiled his refreshing smile

Or so your subordinates probably think .

Then through <Liikus> I heard Sashas voice .

Aww enough already . Raining at such a time .

Rain? Its a clear sky without any clouds even .

Be careful .

Mishas voice calls out .

Whats wrong?

Its not raining here . Its only raining over Sasha .

The colour of Sashas complexion changes .

The rain had now turned into a downpour and severely limited her field of vision, however, even if your view is limited it has no impact on demon eyes that can see magic .

. . Whats thisthis rain . its not ordinary rain Misha .

Every single drop of rain has the same wavelength as Misas magic . I cant find her main body . . Misha replied .

Sashas eyes narrow .

Whats with that? This magic? Its not lost magic . Ive never heard of it before .

Fumu . Isnt this spirit magic?

This is the same magic that Riniyon the grand water spirit used in the great spirit forest Ahartherun .

Misa is half-demon half-spirit . Is she linked to Riniyon somehow?

The magic of spirits is special since they are magic themselves .

From the beginning, exchanges between the mazoku and the spirits were uncommon so after a thousand years of no interaction, the knowledge and traditions of the spirits that the mazoku did know would have disappeared .

Well, maybe not completely . Unlike me, the true demon king of tyranny whos been wiped from history some documents on the spirits should exist somewhere .

Neither Sasha nor Misha knew what this was so Misa must have hidden her spirit magic until today .

To reveal it here means she must want to win .

Though its a familiar magic to me if Sasha cant deal with the source of it then shell struggle to cope .

For Misa, its a rare chance to beat the superior Sasha .

Sasha must understand this as well .

Fine . Ill strike first . Youd better be prepared though . If you cant stop it youll die .

Sasha erects an anti-magic barrier and a magic barrier on top of herself .

Sashas power had improved dramatically from <Dino Jikusess> and on top of that, shes got the Sorcerer <Mage> class as well which further boosts her magic power .

Misa and the fan union will have a hard time breaking through Sashas defence .

Here we go!!

From the downpour, the girls from the fan union appear and attack Sasha .

Eight people in total, all with spears in their hands .

They must have judged they couldnt break through Sashas anti-magic .

They attacked from all directions and struck with all their might .

You finally showed up .

Sashas barrier blocked all the attacks without a single scratch .

Sasha looked at all eight of them with her demon eyes .

Please sleep for a while .

. Aah .

All eight of the girls staggered and fell down unconscious .

I went easy on you . You should all be up in a day or so .

Not yet

Sashas eyes open wide at a voice .

One of the fan union girls who should have been unconscious was crawling along the ground .

. I will enter . . Arnos-samas group

The opponent is overwhelmingly inferior in magic power, however, they resisted the <Demon Eyes of Ruin> through sheer willpower .

In this moment Sasha was distracted .

The raindrops falling down took on the figure of a person and suddenly Misa appeared over Sashas head wielding a pure white demon sword .

Ive got you Sasha-san!

Naive .

Sasha deploys full power anti-magic barriers and magic barriers overhead .

Misa swings her demon sword down .

Haaaaaa!!

The snow-white demon sword easily broke through Sashas barriers and cut her down from head to abdomen .

Fresh blood flows out and Sasha collapses .

. . Haaahaaa .

Misa landed on the ground breathing heavily . She must have put all her effort into that attack .

Fumu . I see . Is that your demon sword? I ask Ray .

No matter how good the surprise attack, Misa herself lacked the power to break through Sashas defences .

Though a demon sword chooses its owner theres a magic connection through Demon King Army <Guys> and because of that I can lend it temporarily .

You cant normally do that .

Perhaps .

If Im not mistaken, wasnt there a story that he could handle holy swords and divine swords as well?

Even if thats the case, its well outside the norm to subjugate a demon sword and lend it to other people .

He resembles Shin a little .

Hadnt you better go and heal her? Shes currently Sorcerer <Mage> class . I dont think shell be able to heal the wound from that demon sword .

I snorted at Rays words .

Ive already told you once . Dont underestimate my subordinates .

Sasha is reflected in the waterfall monitor and the next moment her body is wrapped up in a golden flame .

Misa was surprised and backed off reflexively .

That was unexpected . I didnt think you could use a demon sword .

Sasha gets up and flies in the sky .

Her entire body is still wrapped in golden flames as she gradually embodies the <Phoenix Vestment> shes wearing .

The robe grants the benefits of immortality . As long as your magic does not run out it will heal all wounds over and over again .

. . Then my next step is to cut off that robe . .

Misa sets up her pure white demon sword .

As expected . Sasha still needs to be wary of that sword .

Ill help . I feel Rays power coming from that demon sword . One person is at a disadvantage . Mishas voice rang out .

Though Im glad I think it will be decided before Misha arrives .

Misha cant fire a <Geo Greys> from the castle as Sasha will be hit but Misa will not wait for Misha to arrive either is probably what Sasha thought but suddenly a magic formation appeared right by Sasha and standing there was a platinum blonde haired girl .

Its Misha .

Sasha cant hide her surprise .

Misha . . was that Transfer <Gatom>?

Because Ive seen it many times now I thought I could do it .

Fumu . Ive certainly shown it many times but you cant just imitate <Gatom> with that alone . <Dino Jikusess> must have strengthened her demon eyes as well .

. Thats fine . Fill me in on the details after we beat that woman .

Nn

. Both Misha-san and Sasha-san are amazingbut I cannot afford to lose here

Looking up at Misha and Sasha who are standing side by side Misa puts all her power into the demon sword .

Despite Rays help, that demon sword is not suitable for Misa . The fight cant be dragged out much longer .

. . Here I go .

Misa readies her stance and kicks the ground .

Sasha .

I know .

Sasha forms a magic circle and readies Scorching Black Flame <Griado> .

The golden flames from the <Phoenix Vestment> are still wrapped around Sashas body . They mix with <Griado> and turn it a golden colour before Sasha fires it at Misa .

Haaa!!

Misa cuts the golden flame with her pure white sword extinguishing it .

As I thought .

A demon sword that cuts magic .

The foundation of magic is the technique used to cast it . A magic blueprint so to speak . That pure white sword cuts though magic by cutting through the technique itself thus nullifying the magic .

. . Have you understood it? Neither magic nor anti-magic works on this sword . In addition . .

The body of Misa turned into raindrops and disappeared completely .

She became rain itself by using her spirit magic .

Misha .

Nn .

Standing back to back Sasha and Misha connect both their hands from behind .

They dont know where Misa will appear from and in front of that sword, both defence and offence are invalidated . Almost .

However

Fufuu . Sasha laughed .

Whats is it?

I never thought a day like this would come .

In a normal school and in a normal exam it wouldnt be unusual for sisters to work together and challenge it, however, for them, this is an irreplaceable miracle they could only have dreamed of .

Well show you the secret art of the Necrons .

Nn .

Misha smiled a light smile .

Here I coooooome!!

Out of the raindrops Misa suddenly appeared in front of them .

Shes 3 steps away from reaching them with her sword and Sasha creates a magic circle to meet her .

Wrong . Misha mutters .

Misa doesnt have the demon sword shes only pretending to .

Sasha quickly looks up startled .

Overhead the raindrops changed into a pure white demon sword that was falling towards them at a tremendous speed .

It was so fast Misa must have thought it was unavoidable but the bodies of two people disappeared . The falling sword cuts through the empty air and pierces the ground .

Thats regrettable .

Misha had used <Gatom> to avoid the falling sword .

They both reappeared with one pair of hands clasped together and their other hands pointing at Misa .

Demon Flame <Guresode>

Demon Ice <Shade>

They then both spoke at the same time

Demon Ice Demon Fire Rivalry Wave <Jie Gureido>

The Necron secret arts . Fusion magic . They combined <Guresode> and <Shade> . Golden fire and silvery-white ice combine into a glacial fire that attacks Misa .

Misa immediately pulls the pure white demon sword from the ground and prepares to cut <Jie Gureido> .

Haaaaa . !!

Demon sword and magic wave collide, however, even though <Jie Gureidos> momentum was reduced it wasnt stopped .

The magic technique constructed by fusion magic is complex with the techniques overlapping in layers .

Even if the surface technique is nullified the two magics underneath would just separate but still exist .

Misa didnt have the skill to cut all the techniques at once .

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Wrapped in flames and ice Misas body is blown away .

After hitting the ground she didnt move . Has she lost consciousness?

The effects of the spirit magic is over and the rain disappears .

Light abruptly broke through the clouds overhead .

Though we had practised alone . we matched our breathing pretty well for our first time .

Misha smiled lightly at Sashas words .

I am the same as Sasha .

Sasha laughed happily .

Fusion magic is difficult due to trying to match the magic wavelengths but for these two its as easy as breathing .

Probably because they were originally the same existence .

Im the same as Misha too .

While speaking Sasha raises her hand and Misha high-fives her .
