Anger rose up. It was not the silent anger that seeped into my heart as cold as ice that I always felt while living as a slave. It wasn’t the sad, helpless anger that just turned away, ignored, and didn’t acknowledge reality.
The heat of the whole body overcomes the desert wind. A hot anger, burning like the midday sun, was boiling in my chest. It seems as if the boiling anger turns into a fire and burns the whole body. Siris burst into spirit.
“Aaaah!”
Meanwhile, Bright and the others were looking at Siris running towards them with puzzled expressions.
At first, I just liked it because I had money. He innocently rejoiced at this good fortune, saying that since he would attack on his own without me having to chase him, I wouldn’t have to worry about him getting angry. However, the sight of that elf girl getting closer and closer was unusual.
Of course, this does not mean that Bright and the others were alerted by Siris’s power. If they had that much sense, they wouldn’t have picked a fight with Repenhardt in the first place. What they were puzzled about was something else.
One of the subordinates looked blankly and muttered.
“Uh, what are those clothes on… … .”
To put it simply, the clothing of the wild elves here was slightly better than that of animals. The main clothing of these wild elves was rags made of cactus fiber and gumbul, which could easily be called a bag. But isn’t that elf’s attire luxurious, like something a female swordsman from a famous noble family would wear?
Moreover, the scimitar he was holding had a sharp edge and did not look like an ordinary sword. It is a genuine product that cannot be compared to stone swords, bronze swords, or wooden swords made from ground wood, which are mainly used by wild elves.
Meanwhile, Siris came right in front of Bright and the others. One of the mercenaries snorted and stepped forward.
“Well, anyway, it’s a female elf.”
With a face full of ridicule, the mercenary held up his ax and raised it high as if threatening. Now, if you hit it like this, you’ll fall. Are you scared? Are you scared?
At that moment, blue flashes flashed three times throughout the mercenary’s body.
“… … uh?”
The mercenary’s eyes are filled with a mysterious light. At the same time, his body split into four pieces. Siris approached him and cut him to pieces with four slashes in one breath. The head of the mercenary man, still with a puzzled expression, flew high into the sky. Then, fresh blood spread out in all directions like a fountain.
Something hot splashes down my face. Bright let out a blank voice.
“… … what?”
Siris lunged again. He takes a low stance, steps left and right like a snake, and pounces on another mercenary with terrifying force. That was the moment when the mercenary got scared and raised his sword to block the attack.
“Ugh!”
Tatang!
The mercenary’s sword shattered with a loud metallic sound. Those without discerning eyes could not recognize it, but the scimitar that Siris was currently holding was a luxury item, carefully crafted by the dwarven master craftsmen of Grand Forge to suit her physique. It was cast from mithril and steel, and Reppenhardt, who had recovered some of his magic, cast auxiliary magic whenever he had time, so it could not be compared to a sword forged for mass production by a mere human blacksmith.
Wow!
Siris’ scimitar, which broke the mercenary’s sword, cut open the opponent’s chest. This mercenary wasn’t even wearing proper armor because it was hot in the desert. He could cut through his bones and flesh without any strain.
Faaagh!
Once again, the fountain of blood spread in all directions. The red sea spreads out over the golden sand. Bright widened his eyes. She came to her senses. This is no ordinary elf!
“f*ck, f*ck! Everyone, catch that bitch!”
Bright shouted bitterly. Only then did the mercenaries come to their senses and start attacking Siris with serious faces.
☆ ☆ ☆
Platinum-blonde hair sparkles brilliantly under the desert sun. With her hair flying, Siris twisted her body and soared into the air. Her spinning scimitar scatters her blades in all directions. The wrists of the mercenaries attacking her left and right were deeply cut, exposing their pure white bones.
“Ugh!”
“Ahh!”
Screaming, the two mercenaries grab his wrists and step back. In the air, Siris swung his sword and shook off the blood. The blood and oil of the human being that had just been cut was scattered along the blade, leaving not a single drop behind. It was like water droplets falling on a butterbur leaf and falling down.
It was thanks to the moisture and oil blocking magic that Reppenhardt casted for her. I couldn’t use the Sharpness magic, which is almost mandatory for magic swords, because it wasn’t yet at the level for enchantment, but it was effective enough. The biggest factor that slows down the sword’s prowess is human blood and oil. Siris’ scimitar never dulls due to human fat, no matter how many people it cuts down.
A mercenary shouted in horror at the sight of her bleeding like the goddess of death.
“What a pair! “What’s so fierce about elves?”
It seems like he can’t understand the atmosphere even in this situation. Siris landed with her scimitar still eerily sharp above her head and brought it down to deliver her slash. One of her mercenaries tried hard to block the sword strike by raising her axe, but her scimitar, loaded with momentum, cut down the entire handle of her axe, splitting her opponent’s head in two.
“Ugh!”
With a scream, gray brain matter splashed in all directions. Bright’s group, who lost their five comrades in an instant, went berserk and attacked her. Siris’ movements also became faster. Although she did not have Silan’s protection, she had trained the sword for several decades and was already no different from a wild beast. With elastic movements reminiscent of a black panther, she moves between her mercenaries, spraying blood in all directions. The screams of the mercenaries continued.
“Wow!”
“Ugh!”
Once again, the four comrades lost limbs one by one and rolled around on the sand. The disdain on the faces of the remaining mercenaries no longer disappeared. I realized that I could no longer dismiss the other person as just a female elf.
As the mercenaries became more serious, Siris’ movements also began to be restricted. No matter how low they were, they were mercenaries in name, people who had lived their whole lives by the sword. It is by no means an easy opponent to attack, relying only on numbers like a simple peasant uprising.
“Ha!”
The three mercenaries worked in unison and thrust their swords in unison. Sharp stabs come from three directions at the same time. It was an attack that she couldn’t think of a way to avoid at the moment, but Siris instead turned on her snort.
“joy!”
If it were like before, I might have given up at least one forearm in this situation. However, she had also gained considerable experience by following Leffenhardt around. As an Auror, she watched the user’s battles tirelessly and improved her insight. At this point, it’s not even a crisis anymore!
In that split second, Siris immediately grasped the speed of the three stabbing blades. Then he threw himself towards the nearest blade.
Raise the scimitar and block the tip of the opponent’s sword with the handle.
Empty!
The tip of the handle and the tip of the sword collide and bounce off. With that momentum, he turns his body and blocks the stabbing blow aimed at his back with the blade of the scimitar. The scimitar’s sword blade, which has a relatively large area, can be an excellent shield if the timing is right. As soon as he blocks the attack from the back, he slides the blade and slices the other guy’s head upside down.
Suddenly!
With an eerie sound, the mercenary’s neck was cut off with the final thrust. All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The mercenaries who attacked also looked dumbfounded, unable to understand what had happened.
Of course, Siris has no reason to wait until the other person becomes more understanding.
‘chance!’
Seizing the opportunity, she immediately swung the scimitar left and right. The remaining two guys, who showed a brief moment of relief, soon fell to the floor, spewing blood.
Bright trembled and muttered.
“Ah, where did something like that come from?”
At that time, a deep voice rang from behind me.
“Jahud Ron Kelipatina. Heat, come into my hand. Become a fire that strikes your enemies! Fire bolt!”
Now the wizard Clonto, who had come down from the camel, had used magic on Siris. A bullet of flame tore through the air and shot towards Siris. Surprised, Siris stepped behind her and raised her scimitar to her side. The pyrotechnic bullet hit the scimitar and an explosion occurred.
“Ugh!”
With a groan, Siris took a step back one after another. She barely manages to block her fatal blow, but the aftermath of her explosion shakes her entire body and throws her posture out of whack. Then she followed up with Clone Toe’s incantation chanting.
“Sephiro di Crotel, Earth, stretch out your hand and reap what comes from you! Iron Steel!”
At that moment, Siris felt an extreme weight and lost the scimitar. Clonto immediately used a disarming spell. Bright let out a sigh of relief as she saw Siris empty-handed.
“Wow, I finally got it.”
Bright and the others were just about to take steps towards Siris, who was bare-handed.
Suddenly, a majestic voice rang out from across the desert.

“If you move, you die.”
As if they had made a promise, Bright and the others froze like statues on the spot. It was strange. While living as mercenaries, they have heard all kinds of abusive language and threats like a lullaby. But the moment I heard this voice, I got chills for no reason and my whole body became stiff.
‘What, what? ‘Why am I like this?’
It’s not some kind of magic. How can something like this be achieved with just your voice? In a strange situation where they couldn’t understand their own actions, Bright and the others inadvertently turned their heads towards the direction from which the voice was heard. And it hardened once again. The person who screamed was ‘flying’ through the desert.
It was not a movement that could be described humanely as ‘jumping’ or ‘running.’ It literally runs 20 to 30 meters every time it stomps its foot, and every time it stomps its foot, a pillar of sand rises high with an explosion, as if some kind of magic had occurred.
pop! pop! pop!
Amid the loud noise, one of the mercenaries muttered in an idiotic voice.
“… … “Is it a monster?”
But Bright and his original subordinates, those who had been with him from the Chrome City arena, could never mutter leisurely like that friend. They knew very well that large young man approaching inhumanly.
“Uh, that… … .”
“Ehh?”
“Hehehehe!”
While each of them was making a groaning noise, the young man came towards them all at once and landed. Then he looked around arrogantly and smiled coldly.
“How are you? “Is this the old face?”
☆ ☆ ☆
Reppenhardt looked down at the audience with a cold smile. He also thought it was a funny coincidence. I never thought I would come to the western end of this distant continent and meet a familiar face.
Of course, this encounter is by no means pleasant, so his expression cannot be cheerful. He glared at Bright with the smile of a wild beast facing its prey.
“I guess I was acting as a slave hunter here this time?”
Bright became thoughtful and his legs shook. The horror of that day passed through his mind like a flash of light. Memories of that day, when I was beaten so hard that I wanted to beg to be killed, were prickling my brain and stiffening my whole body.
“Da, you…” … .”
Really, I felt like I wanted to blame God for what sins I had committed in my past life to be so unlucky.
At that time, Clonto, who knew nothing, shouted.
“What are you doing, Bright? Energy bolt!”
For Bright, it may be a repeat of a nightmare, but for Clonto, it is just the appearance of a new enemy. He can cast magic as calmly as he wants. Intense magical energy flew towards Reppenhardt, spinning through the air like a boomerang.
Wow!
Looking at the flying energy bolt, Reppenhardt inadvertently raised his right hand. The plan was to raise the Aurors to defend as usual. At that time, a sudden thought occurred to me.
‘Wait a minute, there’s no need to physically hit me now, right?’
I’ve regained quite a bit of my magic power, but there’s still no need to fight ignorantly. Leppenhardt waved the air with his raised right hand and made a hand sign.
“Shield of Flash, Arcane Shield!”
A blue flash erupted, and a shield of light enveloped Reppenhardt’s entire body. It was an Arcane Shield, a 3-circle anti-magic spell that specialized in protecting against magic.
Fuuuuuuu!
The energy bolt hit the arcane shield and disappeared, emitting light. Since Energy Bolt was not a very high circle spell, it did not have the power to pierce the anti-magic power of the Arcane Shield. Clonto muttered in confusion.
“what? Was he a wizard?”
That also seemed like a significant level. Looking at the use of Arcane Shield using only the starter word, it seemed like he was at least capable of casting 5 circles.
‘Are you saying he’s a wizard of a similar level to me at that age?’
A nervous Clonto shouted to Bright.
“Tie him up! “I’ll prepare the order properly this time!”
Only then did Bright come to his senses. The nightmare of that day came to mind and they froze for a moment, but when they thought about it, their number was now over thirty, and a high-ranking wizard was also with them. No matter how strong he is, he is not strong enough to deal with just one young guy.
Bright shouted as he pulled out his sword, mustering up the courage he lacked.
“Hit!”
The remaining mercenaries all rushed at Reppenhardt. Since I knew that the opponent was a wizard, I had to approach him as quickly as possible to interrupt the chanting of the spell. If they fail to do so, they will only suffer. They were all experienced mercenaries, so they were well aware of this.
“Taaaat!”
“Eurachacha!”
Mercenaries rushed to all directions of Reppenhardt, each with their own unique spirit. Reppenhardt folded his hands in front of his chest. Rune words to gather magical power to cast spells flowed from his mouth.
“Cetaphil Land Delphi Road Ketana… … .”
Of course, in the meantime, the mercenaries had already rushed in front of his nose. Everyone casually stabbed their swords towards that large target. Thrusting, slashing, and slashing, the blade plunged into Reppenhardt’s entire body. First of all, a wizard cannot be an enemy if he only interferes with the chanting of a spell! Success!
… … The mercenaries were just about to smile in remorse.
Tang! Bouncy!
The moment the swords were thrown, the swords bounced back with a strong rebound force, as if they had been swung at some kind of rock. Some of them were unable to withstand the force and had their hands torn. The mercenaries gaped like carp.
“… … reel?”
“Ugh?”
“W-what is it?”
Leppenhardt calmly continued chanting the spell, leaving the embarrassed mercenaries as they were.
“The power of the earth is in the sky, and the power of the sky is in the earth. “The two separated powers come together and gain strength.”
The magic power gathered through words containing will is woven into a magical form. Reppenhardt slowly rubbed his hands as he continued to chant the spell. A light static electricity broke. With this, the catalyst needed to cast the spell was completed.
