Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu - Volume 12 Chapter 5 part3

Part 3

「Kuh……」

Rem grit her teeth.

Just a single attack, by the purple Magimatic Sol!

With just that, the defensive formation constructed on the Twelfth District side of the communication bridge was partially destroyed.

When Rem peeked at what the situation with the enemy was from the shadow of a building, something fell onto her face from overhead and covered her vision.

Orange hair──it was her wig.

Come to think of it, she was still crossdressing.

It seemed that her hair band came off from the after-effects of that attack just now.

Her usual clothes were not appropriate in the Inner Court──she was crossdressing after being evaluated like that. That in itself was something that she could agree with though……

This wasn't the Inner Court, nor was it a normal time right now.

「……It should be fine now.」

Rem took it off──she grabbed the wig of orange hair, which was the standard color for a Pantherian, and tossed it aside.

Her long black hair spread out.

And while she was at it, she threw off the tight jacket. She was now in her usual little-covered-surface-area──easy-to-move in outfit.

Alicia looked at her with a side glance, and curved her mouth.

「Rem-sama, you look much better like that.」

「……I think so too. I didn't really like my own appearance in the past though.」

「And what caused the change of heart?」

「……It's because right now, there is someone who acknowledges me.」

She dropped her gaze on the ring finger of her left hand.

The 《Marriage Ring》 was on it.

Alicia nodded.

「That is wonderful.」

「……We haven't, done anything, like husband and wife yet though.」

「Ahh, that Person, he does seem like that type.」

「……That is why, I cannot die in a place like this.」

「Yes.」

They returned their attention to the fight.

The Church soldiers were sporadically counter attacking but……

Just as stated in the information, it seemed that normal weapons did not work on the Magimatic Sol.

The purple Magimatic Sol, Violanos, progressed through the communication bridge.

『Don't hide and come on out! I'll fill you all with holes!』

Shots came firing again.

They probably would have been penetrated if not for the wall. Together with a thunderous sound, the building that received the attack shook.

It was an incredible rapid-fire.

「……I, will draw the attack.」

「Rem-sama!?」

「……If it is with your magic stones, Alicia, I think you will surely give it damage.」

They had power that was just like Diablo's magic. If those were no good, then she felt that it would truly be impossible.

Seeming like she had the same opinion as well, she didn't deny her.

「But, if it's the magic stones, Rem-sama, you can throw them as well. I shall take the decoy role.」

「……Just because I said I would take the decoy role, I have no intention of dying. My current self is, different from the past. From the time where I was always protected by Diablo.」

「Is that, so.」

「……But, since I don't think I can hold out for long, please take care of things fast.」

「I understand. Please leave it to me!」

「Here I go!」

Rem jumped out from the shadow of the building.

「Come forth, 《Aslau》!!」

She threw a crystal.

A gigantic three horned bull appeared, and ferociously charged towards the enemy.

Migurta snorted.

『Did you think you could defeat this Violanos with something like that? Don't make me laugh.』

「And also, 《Rock Wan》 and 《Dragonfly》!」

『You small fry! You're annoying!』

It fired its gun.

The Summoned Beasts were easily crushed. So they really couldn't get through, like she thought.

She had confidence that she had definitely grown as a Magician, but unfortunately, the levels of the Summoned Beasts that she had contracted with were too low.

Rem used Kikou.

Accelerate.

──Slow! Too slow! I ran much faster at that time!

When she fought against Geibalt, although there was the effect of the 《Demon King's Fang》, that should have been her own power.

In that case, it wouldn't be strange if she could exhibit that power as well.

"Focus, Rem. Don't think any unnecessary thoughts, and simply face your own body".

What she unexpectedly remembered, were the words of her now late father.

In the next moment──

She noticed a bullet that was drawing near right before her eyes.

If it were to hit, she would die.

She unconsciously knead Kikou towards her fingertip.

While warding off the devastating damage, she put force on the bullet from the side.

*Mishiri* Her finger creaked.

Her skin split.

*Kiin!* While scattering a metallic sound, Rem diverted the bullet.

Migurta doubted her own eyes.

『What!? Wasn't that a direct hit!?』

Rem immediately ran towards another building.

Her heart was pounding.

──I, I feel like I did something amazing……on the spur of the moment!

She didn't think that she could do it one more time.

She was lucky.

There was a need to change this coincidence into a true ability one day, but she was overwhelmingly lacking in training right now. She was self-aware of that.

「……F, fighting with……inborn talent like this, doesn't match with my personality. I will leave this sort of thing to Shera.」

Her voice trembled.

The enemy's shooting was poured down on the building she was hiding at.

There was a need to draw its attention a bit more for Alicia to throw the magic stone at it.

She needed to think about the next hand to play.

However, the situation took a sudden turn.
