Chapter 292 - Episode Thirty-Nine - The Great God Kudor (13)
The levitating Zolomonia raises her thin arms.
As if to surround me and her, a magic circle unfolds at our feet.
A large number of magic formulas run into the air, covering me and Zolomonia.
Breaking the encryption in my brain, I decipher the magic formula.
A ward with built-in teleportation magic
I can only get a rough idea from a quick glance, but it seems that when an external impact is applied to the conjured formula, it has the effect of teleporting the space inside the warding to another place together.
Correct. Ill call it Zolomonia-style teleportation warding. At the same time as Kudor attacks, you will teleport to a position where you will be on the blind spot of the opponent at a sorcerers distance. In order to increase the accuracy and speed, it has become a bit large scale, so it is a bit difficult to maintain even for this mistress, but Ill make it work somehow.
If you take a hit from Kudors attack, even Asura 5000 will be broken.
The idea of escaping with an auto-activated teleportation magic is certainly not a bad idea.
Leave the evading to this mistress. Ill avoid it for as long as my magic lasts. In the meantime, just keep attacking and observing him. Its the first time for this mistress to ever seen Kudor, too.
I think I can recreate this type of ward, but maintaining this type of ward takes up a lot of my conscious resources.
If I were to deploy a teleportation warding, I would not be able to perform any magic on the scale of Abel ball during that time.
Its nice to know that Zolomonia will be able to maintain it.
Kudor spreads her wings and tentacles as she flies through the air.
Its almost completely collapsed, and the view has become completely clear, and it begins to swoop down towards me, standing on top of the current remnants of the old ancient temple.
Can you really avoid it?
The more I looked at Kudor, the more uneasy I became.
No matter how automatic the activation is, its useless if the wards are directly tampered with, if the senses are fooled, or if the activation lag is exploited.
I looked suspiciously at Zolomonia, but she seemed too busy trying to maintain her wards to do so.
In any case, I trusted Zolomonia and decided to proceed with the deployment of the magic formation for attack.
There was no room to spare.
The only way to move was to assume that Zolomonia would do well herself.
I drew five magic circles in my brain and deployed them with a wave of my wand.
They are not activated yet.
I attack Kudor as Zolomonias auto-teleportation is triggered.
Kudor raises her thin, human arm.
When she brings it down, it swells from the shoulders up.
The huge arm with its wicked claws extended, each finger like a great sword.
The swinging arm suddenly extended.
The reach was extended, and it came at me in a straight line.
The warding technique becomes more brilliant, and the speed at which it travels around me jumps up.
The moment the intense light obscured my surroundings, I was far higher than Kudors rear.
To put it simply, I was thrown up into the air.
W-Wait, it should at least be somewhere in the foothold of rabble of the cathedral
The site of the ancient cathedral where I was standing was beginning to collapse.
The ancient cathedral was transformed into rubble by Kudors blow, losing its ability to float and falling into the sea, where it was swallowed up.
Nothing was left behind.
Dont think that such childish tricks will work against me.
The human body of Kudor twisted around and looked back at me.
I chanted a spell to activate the magic circle that had been deployed.
Earth, form, dragon.
The five magic circles responded and disappeared.
From the bottom of the sea, five clumps of earth in the shape of dragons shot out.
They attacked Kudor, but the tentacles growing out of their bodies gave them no blind spot.
One of the dragons was decapitated, another had its head pierced, and another was struck in the torso by a horizontal tentacle.
In the blink of an eye, all the dragons were transformed into their original clumps of earth.
After all, this level of magic can only buy us so much time
In addition, one of the tentacles rapidly extended and attacked me.
Once again, Zolomonias teleportation wards react.
I was being moved to the top of the dragons shredded head floating in the ocean.
When I looked up, I saw a single long, terrifying tentacle piercing the spot where I had just been.
Its a terrifying distance. I didnt know it was so flexible. In that case, a mere tentacle attack is essentially a long-range attack.
Zolomonia grabbed my shoulder in a familiar way and looked up at the tentacles spacing, terrified.
I was terrified, too.
Its not so much about Kudors spacing as it is about the vulnerability of Zolomonias teleportation wards.
Ive seen it up close and personal twice, so Im starting to understand how it works, but Ive found a few things that make me want to say that its not a good idea.
Ive found about ten breakdowns and gaps in the teleporation wards, as well as some room for increased magic efficiency, can you fix them now?
Zolomonia, the Great Demon of Wisdom and Ruin, is indeed a great demon.
Its a beautiful magic circle and formula. Its not a bad build.
is what Id like to say, but there are too many omissions.
I want to continue to get along with her and I really didnt want to interfere in any way.
But now, with Kudor in front of me, it was different.
We need to say what we need to say.
Im very interested in , but this mistress has her hands full right now, too. Im sorry, but its going to have to wait until I get some things done before I can ask you to teach me again.
Eh No, you see, our lives are depending on the warding, and its a little bit difficult to keep my mind off it right now.
Ah, no but while Im focused on that, Ill be defenseless, and if youre just improvising, youll probably cause more breakdowns?
I know that.
But Im saying this knowingly.
The problem and the answer to it are already in my mind, and Ive already done some light simulations in my brain.
It should definitely be safer than fighting in the current warding. Im sure of it.
N-No. Calm down, calm down and try to persuade her.
If I say this and that out of emotion, nothing will be conveyed.
We dont have much time or room to spare.
You know, Zolomonia-san, at this rate, If we dont do something now, theres no telling when the vulnerability of the warding will be exploited, and the reaction will be delayed, and we wont be able to teleport in time, you know? Do you understand that? Youre telling me to do it later, arent you? Thats fine if thats the case, but thats the way it is, isnt it?
W-Why the sudden honorifics!? Youre probably angry with me, right!? Arent you!?
Zolomonia frowned and asked me fearfully.
The dignity with which Zolomonia had presided over the battle had already begun to fade.
I fought to keep my temples from twitching.
No, Im not angry or irritated. I just want to be reasonable and demand a review of the technique. Not only my safety, but also Meas safety and Peters will are at stake. I cant do anything half-heartedly, and I dont want to.
Ah! The next one, the next one is coming! I want to increase the accuracy of the warding as much as possible. Just give me a minute to talk! Ill answer as many questions as you want when Im done !
No, it wont make sense later Hey, are you listening to me!?
As if to make an excuse, Zolomonia added and activated magic circles to increase the accuracy of the warding.
She glanced at me, but when she realized that I was staring at her, she rushed forward to escape my gaze.
Hey, you just made eye contact with me. You cant fool me.
Well, it cant be helped.
I cant afford to struggle now.
Its unfortunate, but Im going to prepare myself so that I can do some damage to Kudor.
