Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai - Chapter 229.3 - Relight And Various Spirits 2

The lighter in my hand shone red as if performing a light dance, forming a huge fireball, and went toward the face of the treant. This was a complete magic attack of fire attribute.

BOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

The treant’s huge trunk shook as it raised an ominous wail.

It was effective. My attack burned its face, which definitely dealt a huge damage.

「N-NOW!」

I burnt the ivy coiling around my body with the lighter in my hand. I did it really carefully this time since I would be in trouble if I got burnt too.

「Hell ye――AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?」

Naturally, I fell down once I was freed from the ivy that coiling around me. Are you kidding me, just how many meters am I from the ground? I might be able to survive falling from a two-story mansion height but,

「Ouch…」

The dull pain and shock were more than I expected upon landing on the ground.

But, since none of my bones were broken, I was pretty much safe.

That was a cheap price to be able to escape from that perilous situation. I had to use this chance to escape while the treant was still writhing in pa――

「RelIghT WatCh OuT!」

“BAM”, Kinako’s shout was suppressed by the loud and heavy sound

「T-THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL!?」

Treant’s thick branch moving like an arm, struck the ground right by my side.

Were they aiming for me? Or was it just a desperate attack? If that attack hit me, its terrifying force combined with its weight would definitely turn me into mined meat.

The branch then rose up and tried to smash me again.

The thick branch was raised over my head along with a grating sound―― Dammit, this one wouldn’t miss its target for sure!

「Bzzt Bzzt」

「Jiggle Jiggle」

Those voices came from the thunder spirit residing in my smartphone.

I quickly took out the smartphone in my pocket in one smooth motion.

Somehow, I knew that they called me. They told me to use them.

Thus, I chose to believe them. Since I’m a spiritualist, it was only natural for me to believe in them, the spirits.

「――TAKE THIS!!」

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A dazzling flash of light filled my field of vision along with a loud sound.

It was as if there was a lightning strike right before me―― Which in fact was really a lightning strike.

「D-Did I… Defeat it?」

Upon a closer look, the treant had turned black, and the upper half of the face on its trunk got smashed along with the upper half of the trunk. It looked like a tree that had just been struck by a thunderbolt.

「Thank you guys.」

「Kyuu~」

The purplish figure of the electric spirits who replied with a rather exhausted voice became fainter before they disappeared. At the same time, the electric source of my smartphone turned off too.

It seems they had over-exerted themselves and had to take a rest for a while.

「Master!」

「RelIGht! AwESome! YoU BEat ThaT TreaNt!」

Kinako and Beniwo rushed at once toward me.

「The spirit saved my *ss again today.」

「AmaZinG, USinG PoWeR of SPiriT, is ReallY StrOng.」

Yeah, the power of spirits was really amazing. Despite their tiny size, they could create such conflagration and summon thunder strikes.

「MasTeR! WooF!」

「It’s okay Beniwo, I’m unscathed.」

My leg was just a bit numb when I landed on the ground. I could still walk, and my leg would recover in a minute.

「But hey, want to take a peek inside?」

Kinako nodded in agreement, I mean we had defeated the treant that occupied the outer side of the ruin, meaning it was time to explore this ruin.

===

「Wo~w, it’s a real ruin…」

From up close, the stone building that used to be the nest of the treant was actually a really elaborate building. There were letters-like patterns carved on the wall, it wasn’t just a mere stone building, there was a technological aspect too, an elaborate one on top of that.

「There is nothing inside… Except for descending stairs.」

This building might be just the entrance.

It was empty inside with only stairs leading to the underground.

「This is kinda like a piece of bad news, but… Shall we take a peek?」

Since there was no other choice but to continue, anyone would naturally become curious, right?

I mean, this looked like a dungeon in an RPG. We might even find a treasure box at the end of these stairs.

「RelIGht, Be CaRefuL.」

「Yes.」

We descended the staircase.

At the end of the gloomy staircase illuminated with glowing white wall was,

「… Bright. What kind of place is this? A park?」

We arrived in a spacious room that could be mistaken for a park or garden.

The whole area was covered with green grass, rows of trees lined up neatly on the sides, and flower beds composed of various flowers in one corner.

And then, in the middle of the room was a water fountain with a statue of a naked woman with wings on her back, resembling that of a fairy.

「It’S FaiRY’s TeRriToRY!」

「Eh, it’s what?」

「FaiRy’s TeRrItoRy, We Can’t GeT AnY CloSeR. It’S DanGerOUs.」

「Eh, sUch daNgerous plAce rEally exiSts in tHis kiNd of plaCe?」

「… But, We’LL Be AlRIgHt WiTh RelIghT.」

「So, you’ll be fine with whatever choice」

I had no idea about the basis for his evaluation, but well, since Kinako said it was safe, maybe it was really safe.

「Fairy, sounds like the comrade of spirit, right? What do you guys think about that?」

I tried to ask but, the spirits in my lighter, flask, and the others didn’t say anything. This was the first time I saw them really quiet… Maybe the spirits kept their silence since this was the turf of the fairy.

Could it be that the so-called fairy was… A bad news?

And when I was looking at the tranquil hall while pondering about such things.

「UOO, TOO BRIGHT!?」

A blinding white light appeared out of nowhere.

That light wasn’t a mere light either, that light came from some sort of drawing on the ground.

That kind of looks like a magic circle, does it?

When I was still surprised by the magical phenomenon that I saw for the first time, the dazzling light receded.

And once the glowing light had vanished,

「Aah, you are――」
