Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer, ~ I who was a Sage and a Hero of Previous World, Will Live in Peacefulness in the Next World~ - Chapter 218

◆Mina◆

“You finally came out!”

Gyro leaps toward the demon boss who finally appears.

“Hey!　Don’t you dare butt in!”

“What are you talking about?　If we take him down, we won’t have a head to control these guys!　My brother taught me to go for the boss when fighting an enemy that outnumbers you!”

“But that doesn’t mean you should just rush in!　You need to think more before you move!”

“I’m thinking!　Take that!　Unburnable melt slash!”

Spewing high-powered flames from the soles of his feet, Gyro dares the boss with an ultra-fast swooping attack.

This special attack, which earned Gyro the nickname “Blue Flame” at a tournament held in Dragonia, slices the armor of any enemy in half like butter.

And fortunately, the demon boss was unable to react to Gyro’s attack due to his huge body.

“Could it …… be possible?”

“Eat me!”

Gyro’s blow rips the shell of a hard-looking demon boss in half. ……

Clank!!!!

“Huh?”

The blow that was supposed to cut the boss’s body in half was repelled with a hard sound.

Then, with a tremendous force, Gyro plunged into the demon boss’s body.

“Mobaaah!

With a strange scream, Gyro’s body clings to the demon boss’s shell.

It’s as if a mosquito that came to suck blood in the summer has been squashed.

“Oh …… is ……

Gyro’s body slips away and falls toward the ground.

“I shouldn’t have been watching that!　Megli!　Hurry up and retrieve it!”

“Hmm, okay!”

I hurriedly give instructions and use my tracking magic to distract the demon boss and cover Megli.

Meanwhile, Megli approached the demon boss and was about to retrieve the gyro when …… it suddenly dropped.

“What?

What?

In the nick of time, Megli gets on the demon boss’s body, retrieves the gyro, and leaves.

Then, for some reason, he ran for a while dragging the gyro along with him, and then, as if he had just remembered, he used his flight magic to get out of the way.

“Norbu!　Heal the gyros!”

“Yes, yes!”

Nolbu receives the gyro from Megli and hurriedly applies recovery magic to it.

“Thank you, Megli.”

I gave Meghri some words of encouragement, but she looked serious and gave me some startling information.

“Be careful. If you get too close to that monster, you’ll lose your magic.”

“Magic?　What does that mean?

“I don’t know. I don’t know. Suddenly it’s not working.

What do you mean, the magic stopped working?　Is that why Gyro’s attack didn’t work?

“But once I got away from that monster, I was able to use magic again.”

I see. So that’s why he was dragging Gyro along with him until he got away.

“Does that mean that there’s something around that monster that nullifies magic?”

That would be bad. We’re hopeless for magical cover.

No, let’s just try first.

Float control!

I use levitation magic to levitate rocks and trees dug up in the fight against the demons.

Then I moved them high above the demon boss and released the magic.

Naturally, the rocks and trees that had been lifted up by the magic fall down toward the ground.

“This is the way to repel the magic-resistant demons!”

The most effective way for a wizard to attack an enemy with a high magic defense is to strike the phenomenon free from the influence of magic.

Lex told me that the magic of manipulating large amounts of water, earth, and rocks, which have been present since the beginning, is particularly effective.

“How about this?”

A dull thudding sound echoes through the air, crushing the demon boss.

“Gugga gugga gugga gugga!”

But the monster boss is approaching us, unmindful of the massive mass pouring down on him from above.

“Oh no! ……”

You’re not getting through to me at all!

That’s not good, I didn’t expect you to be so incomprehensible.

“That’s not good. Just getting close to her could break the magic that strengthens her body and she could be mortally wounded.

Liliela, who had been supporting the elves, joins them with a troubled look on her face.

“Then leave it to us!　Thanks to Master Rex, we’re used to fighting on the edge!”

“Oh, wait!

But before I could stop them, the elves had dashed off.

“Ha-ha-ha!　Eat our blows, demon chief!”

Pokin!

“What the gubo-ah!”

BAKANK!

“Why doesn’t the elixir …… work?

“Bah, that’s ridiculous!　You took the elixir and your wounds didn’t heal?

The elves are upset that the elixir is ineffective.

“Geez!

“Owww!”

“Mooo!”

Every time the demon boss swings his arms and legs, the elves are blown away.

“Uh, uh, Liliela, Mina, collect the elves so they don’t get too close to the monster boss.

“Okay.”

Hmm. I’m in charge.

Fortunately, the demon boss was heading straight for us, so it was easy to retrieve the elves.

“But you’re hurt so badly. We have to treat them right away.

“…… Liliela, give the elves an elixir to drink.”

“What?　But they say elixirs don’t work.”

I want to try it.

“…… okay.”

I also got some elixir from the elves who were waiting near the fort and gave it to the wounded elves.

In the blink of an eye, the wounds of the elves were healed.

“What?

Liliela is surprised at the healing of the wounds of the elves who were also given the elixir.

“I guess that’s because the elixir is not just a medicine, but a magic potion.”

“That’s …… no way!”

“Yes, that’s a big no-no.”

Though the elixir is made of a number of precious herbs, it is essentially a magic potion.

This means that the magic-busting property of the demon bosses applies to <> potions as well.

“What a nasty demon!”

Liliela is poisoned by the extremely troublesome characteristics of the demon boss.

Well, I don’t blame her.

“But why is it that only that demon is ……?”

“I don’t understand. Is it because that demon is the boss, or because the other demons are children? ……”

“Or maybe it’s a mutant. ……”

“What?

Liliela’s words make me stiffen involuntarily.

A mutant is a special kind of demon that occurs very rarely.

Some of them have unique and special powers.

“If that’s the case, it’s more than a nuisance.”

If it is a mutant, it can’t be more than twice as strong as the demons that have attacked us so far.

That would at least nullify its magic. I wish they wouldn’t.

“In the worst case scenario, we might have to abandon the tree and do everything we can to get the people out of here.”

They would be angry if we did that, but it would still be better than being wiped out.

They are currently targeting the fruit of the world tree as their top priority, but once they finish eating that fruit, there is no telling what they will target next.

Everybody back to the fort!

We retreat to the fort carrying the elves who are still unable to get up.

We heal them with elixirs, but many of them remain unconscious.

The elves and dwarves who were waiting at the fort attacked the demons with bows and arrows, throwing spears, and spirit magic, but it did not seem to have any effect on the demon boss.

And when the walls that Nolbu had built were shattered by the demon bosses, the demons rushed in to take advantage of the situation.

But with a swing of his arm, the boss blew away these rude minions and entered inside the wall with a calm demeanor.

The fortress we are in is just a stone’s throw away.

And the World Tree is right behind it.

We have to make a decision now.

And just as I was about to shout for them to leave the tree and run away, ……

Boom!

With a violent sound, the earth was blown away.

“”””” what?

The demon boss is also caught up in the impact and is flying through the air.

The demon boss is also caught up in the impact and is flying through the air.

All that remains is a huge hole with no bottom.

“Yo!”

Something appears from there.

What is it?

“Thank God. The tree is still intact.

Crawling out of the giant hole was the man we’d been waiting for.

“”””” Lex!” 3″”Brother!”””

Yes, the Joker had returned to turn this situation upside down!
