“Master, come again…”<\/p>\n
“Kaede, it wasn’t there when I passed.”<\/p>\n
“Eh, that’s right, Himemi-chan.”<\/p>\n
“Mami, just now I saw something suddenly appear on the floor.”<\/p>\n
Dut-!<\/p>\n
“It hurts!”<\/p>\n
Looking back, Mr. Botamochi was falling.<\/p>\n
Good thing I’m not the only one.<\/p>\n
“Everyone be careful! Something will suddenly come out from under the floor.”<\/p>\n
When Himemi warned, everyone paid attention to their feet.<\/p>\n
It’s a small trap that just makes you fall, so there’s no damage, but…<\/p>\n
It might be a trap that activates later.<\/p>\n
But it wasn’t the time to look at your feet.<\/p>\n
“Everyone stop, first line, take a defensive posture”<\/p>\n
“Sir, yes!”<\/p>\n
“Bone approaching from the front, everyone on alert!”<\/p>\n
Eh, bone?<\/p>\n
Captain Duck urges caution.<\/p>\n
It was the very bones that approached from the darkness ahead.<\/p>\n
That’s a skeleton.<\/p>\n
It looks like a human body model in a science room, equipped with a shield and a sword, but… its size is easily nime.<\/p>\n
\u201cHimemi, and loyal retainer, please be the vanguard.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u300cYes, master\u300d<\/p>\n
“Gyoi.”<\/p>\n
“Make a front line to the right of the duck team. All move in the direction of 2 o’clock.”<\/p>\n
\u300cYes, master\u300d<\/p>\n
“Gyoi.”<\/p>\n
Yukki’s party is moving forward.<\/p>\n
“Then Botamochi-san, we’re on the left.”<\/p>\n
“Understood! Yukari, Miho, and Kana-chan will move forward towards 10 o’clock. Please help me.”<\/p>\n
“Yes, Captain.”<\/p>\n
“Understood, Captain.”<\/p>\n
“Riho is under the top, attack if there is a chance”<\/p>\n
“Yes, Captain.”<\/p>\n
Mr. Botamochi used to play soccer when he was a student and was the playmaker.<\/p>\n
The front line consisted of eight men.<\/p>\n
It would be difficult to maintain a front line with a width of about 30 meters with only eight people.<\/p>\n
In particular, the samurai, Chushin-kun, is a bit harsh in terms of defensive power.<\/p>\n
I’m worried that it might get sidetracked.<\/p>\n
“Kaede, please take care of Chushin-kun’s turnaround from the right.”<\/p>\n
“Understood.”<\/p>\n
\u201cMisaki, support the two vanguards.<\/p>\n
“Okay Master. I don’t have any skills.”<\/p>\n
The naginata was a medium-range attack weapon that could be equipped even by the shooting class.<\/p>\n
However, you can’t use the skill unless you acquire it.<\/p>\n
“That’s fine, Misaki.”<\/p>\n
\u201cMami, please heal someone whose HP has dropped to 40%.\u201d<\/p>\n
“Master, won’t you give me the genesis card?”<\/p>\n
\u201cYour level has risen, and if you heal alone, you have a considerable amount of recovery, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
“Yeah, you can recover half of it at once.”<\/p>\n
“Enough. Genesis can only be used for 30 minutes in one battle, so I want to save it.”<\/p>\n
Guts-!<\/p>\n
The skeletons collided with the vanguard.<\/p>\n
Except for the loyal retainers, they block attacks with their shields and swords.<\/p>\n
Tadanobu, who has low defense, parries half-body and slashes from the side.<\/p>\n
Karan\u2015\u2015rumbling rumbling\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
How weak are these guys…<\/p>\n
Aren’t the skeletons who confronted the vanguard quite fragile?<\/p>\n
Some skeletons dodge our attacks with shields, but their reactions are slow.<\/p>\n
Skeletons that were attacked two or three times fell apart and fell to the floor.<\/p>\n
However, the number is large and they come one after another, so instead of pushing up the front line, it gradually retreats.<\/p>\n
As a result of being cautious not to go around to the left and right, I gradually retreated to the vicinity of the entrance.<\/p>\n
When I check my bird skill, there is a flare.<\/p>\n
“I’m going to fire a flare\u2014”<\/p>\n
After declaring that my allies would not be surprised, I launched it at an angle of about 45 degrees.<\/p>\n
What I saw there was a terrifying sight.<\/p>\n
Kuwah- how many bones are there!<\/p>\n
Everyone is brightly colored.<\/p>\n
The other side of the hall was densely packed with white bones.<\/p>\n
However, not all of them seem to be skeletons, and the bones in the back look like they have different equipment.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Yoitaro, did you see it? The rear guards might be magic-type\u2015\u2015\u2015\u2015”<\/p>\n
I thought it was just as Captain Duck pointed out.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it\u2019s a skeleton type, it might be a wither skeleton type\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
“I’m going to send Lilith to see it now.”<\/p>\n
The duck captain released a pet squirrel with stealth skills into a group of skeletons.<\/p>\n
Shall I let Lizzie go too…?<\/p>\n
No, should I have a spare?<\/p>\n
I decided that I didn’t have to put it out now.<\/p>\n
“Listen, the guys behind us made some noise. Attention everyone!”<\/p>\n
Botamochi-san seems to have sensed the enemy’s magic activation with his wolf dog.<\/p>\n
A purple light flew from behind the skeleton.<\/p>\n
I leaned down for a moment, but it didn’t reach me.<\/p>\n
Eh, did you release it to hit an ally?<\/p>\n
I soon found out why.<\/p>\n
Skeleton bones that were supposed to be scattered on the floor were put together as if they had been regenerated in reverse.<\/p>\n
The assembled skeletons grabbed their shields and swords and joined the battle line again.<\/p>\n
Seriously… you’re not dead. No, are you already dead?<\/p>\n
“No, you revived. Olivia! Sakura! Amaterasu!”<\/p>\n
“Sir, yes!”<\/p>\n
Three AIs reacted.<\/p>\n
Captain Duck set three pieces of Water Genesis in front of each of the three AIs.<\/p>\n
That’s amazing, did Duck Captain also have three Water Genesis cards…<\/p>\n
“Freezing attack on enemy rearguard!”<\/p>\n
“Sir, yes!”<\/p>\n
Archers Olivia and Sakura shoot arrows in a parabola.<\/p>\n
Amaterasu shoots ice magic in the same way.<\/p>\n
With Genesis, the range expands further, and ice bullets fall in 5 meters square.<\/p>\n
It seems to be effective to some extent, and spaces are created in places behind it.<\/p>\n
Perhaps a group of skeletons or wither skeletons had fallen.<\/p>\n
But it may come back to life.<\/p>\n
“Ah, Lilith was killed!”<\/p>\n
“Eh, stealth doesn’t work?”<\/p>\n
“Perhaps the Wither Skeleton saw through the stealth.”<\/p>\n
“That’s annoying.”<\/p>\n
You can check the status of the skeleton in front of you, and you can see that it has resistance to fire.<\/p>\n
However, the Wither Skeleton in the back is too far away to confirm.<\/p>\n
To find out, I sent Lilith, a squirrel with stealth skills.<\/p>\n
However, since he disappeared from Captain Duck’s party list, we have no choice but to conclude that he was killed.<\/p>\n
It’s troublesome that I don’t know how much damage I’m doing to the Wither Skeletons.<\/p>\n
For the time being, I put Fire Genesis in front of Misaki and let it shoot arrows.<\/p>\n
“It’s no good Master, I don’t know the resistance, but the wither skeletons haven’t spread fire.”<\/p>\n
After all, freezing is more likely to penetrate, so should I use Water Genesis…?<\/p>\n
I have two Fire Genesis cards in my hand.<\/p>\n
I only have one Water Genesis, so I was stingy with it.<\/p>\n
Considering that it will be a long-term battle, I want to save it, but…<\/p>\n
However, there is no meaning if we lose, so what should we do?<\/p>\n
“Heel!”<\/p>\n
“Don’t be swayed, Mami-dono.”<\/p>\n
As Mami had instructed, when it fell below 40%, he recovered his loyal retainer.<\/p>\n
It recovers about 50% and becomes 90% HP.<\/p>\n
That’s enough recovery… but the mana consumption is about 20%.<\/p>\n
Then I can recover 5 times by myself, or if I use a mana potion, I can do double that…<\/p>\n
When I checked the HP of the eight vanguards, it was cut down to about 50%.<\/p>\n
Himemi still has 60% since she has paladin’s automatic recovery.<\/p>\n
The Duck Corps has a recovery type cleric, just like Mami.<\/p>\n
What I’m worried about is Yukki, the botamochi party.<\/p>\n
Their party has no recovery jobs.<\/p>\n
“Master, please look at this”<\/p>\n
Himemi turned around and pointed to her feet.<\/p>\n
There was a skeleton that turned into dust and disappeared.<\/p>\n
Eh, you were able to defeat it completely\u2015\u2015! ?<\/p>\n
\u201cHimemi, what did you do!\u201d<\/p>\n
“Undead skill, Holy Night.”<\/p>\n
Really–! !<\/p>\n
These skeletons are undead!<\/p>\n
In other words, it’s normal to assume that clerics have weaknesses in their skills.<\/p>\n
If it’s completely erased, even the Wither Skeleton’s regeneration magic won’t revive it!<\/p>\n
“You’re a jerk, use it all the time.”<\/p>\n
I’m sorry, Master. I’m sorry, but I don’t have enough mana to handle one at a time.<\/p>\n
“Oh, I see, no… it’s impossible with this number.”<\/p>\n
“But Mami should have a range skill.”<\/p>\n
That’s it–! “Isn’t Mami a cleric!”<\/p>\n
\u201cMami, can you use Holy Knight within range?\u201d<\/p>\n
Yes, Master. But if you keep …… as it is, there are only about three of them.”<\/p>\n
\u201cThree bodies\u2026..isn\u2019t it just like that?\u201d<\/p>\n
“Yeah…if you use all kinds of genesis…”<\/p>\n
“Using?”<\/p>\n
“Umm, maybe half of this hall?”<\/p>\n
“That means a quarter! Let’s do it!”<\/p>\n
“That means a quarter! Let’s do it!”<\/p>\n
Will most of the mana be gone in a quarter…?<\/p>\n
Can I use the potion twice?<\/p>\n
Ah, that’s right–!<\/p>\n
Wouldn’t it be nice if the duck team could use it too!<\/p>\n
“Alright, let’s do it! Mami”<\/p>\n
\u300cYes, master\u300d<\/p>\n
Ah, wait, I only have one of each other than Fire Genesis…<\/p>\n
It can’t be helped, or should I temporarily remove Himemi’s metal…<\/p>\n
“Master, please remove”<\/p>\n
Himemi said it first.<\/p>\n
“Sorry Himemi, let me do that, please endure a little.”<\/p>\n
“It’s okay, Master! I can endure it for a while.”<\/p>\n
“Yeah! Please. Remove\u2015\u2015!”<\/p>\n
He removed the metal genesis granted to Himmemi’s shield and set all types of genesis on top of each other in front of Mami.<\/p>\n
“Captain Duck!”<\/p>\n
I wanted Captain Duck to see it, so I shouted.<\/p>\n
“Let’s go! An eternal night of rest for the dead\u2015\u2015Holy Night Sky!”<\/p>\n
Whoa, you just said a spell-like word. It’s unscrupulous, but it’s like an MMO and exciting!<\/p>\n
Mami’s palm shone, and light like a shooting star passed through five Genesis cards.<\/p>\n
The orange light turns into a rainbow color and flies to the ceiling.<\/p>\n
The light shined brightly near the ceiling, which was already dark after the effect of the flare had already worn off.<\/p>\n
For a while, it becomes a rainbow-colored ball and floats in the sky, expanding while shining.<\/p>\n
bread–!<\/p>\n
The ball exploded with a dry sound.<\/p>\n
Small balls of light pour down like a waterfall in the hall.<\/p>\n
The Skeletons and Wither Skeletons that were hit directly disappear as dust of bone fragments.<\/p>\n
It seems that 20-30% of the undead have disappeared.<\/p>\n
“Oh!”<\/p>\n
The cheers of allies rise.<\/p>\n
When I looked at Captain Duck, he had already set all types of Genes.<\/p>\n
“Go! Rebecca\u2015\u2015!”<\/p>\n
“Sir Yessir. May the dead be born ducks in the afterlife\u2014Holy Night Sky!”<\/p>\n
Duck Squad cleric Rebecca used the same skill as Mami.<\/p>\n
Eh, hm, is it the same?<\/p>\n
In addition, the undead disappeared and were reduced to about half.<\/p>\n
Amazing, it’s an outstanding effect on the undead.<\/p>\n
“Mami, use this”<\/p>\n
I gave Mami, who was almost out of mana, the mana potion I got on the first floor.<\/p>\n
When Mami used it, her mana was fully recovered.<\/p>\n
Using Holy Knight again turns the undead into dust.<\/p>\n
Now, only about 20% remains.<\/p>\n
All right, the rest of the duck squad…<\/p>\n
\u201cMaster, I have something to worry about!\u201d<\/p>\n
“What is it, Misaki?”<\/p>\n
“There’s a small number on the bottom left.”<\/p>\n
I turned my attention to the left corner of my vision.<\/p>\n
Then, the number four is displayed in orange.<\/p>\n
“What is this?”<\/p>\n
“When the master fell down, the green one came out. When Mr. Botamochi fell down, the blue one came out.”<\/p>\n
Himemi also seemed to have noticed.<\/p>\n
“I just saw two girls from the duck team falling down.”<\/p>\n
“So you mean something is being counted?”<\/p>\n
“That’s right, Master. And I think the color indicates the degree of warning.”<\/p>\n
Dut-!<\/p>\n
While saying that, Rebecca of the duck team fell down.<\/p>\n
Interrupted before skill activation.<\/p>\n
“What’s wrong, Rebecca…”<\/p>\n
Bump!<\/p>\n
“Wow–”<\/p>\n
The moment Captain Duck was about to say that, about four floor blocks fell out at his feet.<\/p>\n
Bump!<\/p>\n
Bump!<\/p>\n
Ducklings one after another fall into holes in the floor.<\/p>\n
“Everyone, gather at Master!”<\/p>\n
I didn’t understand what it meant, but Himemi’s voice made the AIs gather.<\/p>\n
Bump!<\/p>\n
Bump!<\/p>\n
I hug Sen-chan and Mami.<\/p>\n
The moment I fell, Himemi and Misaki hugged me.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
scary\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
scary\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
scary\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
It’s dark….<\/p>\n
It’s dark….<\/p>\n
scary\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
Where\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
Where\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
