My Daddy Hide His Power - Chapter 78
I took out Princess Lara’s magic wand from the bear’s bag and hurriedly ran after Cheshire.
“C, Cheshire! Let’s go together!”
Let’s slide down the gentle entrance.
“Hey, Lilith! You’re here?”
Bruce spotted us and gave a sly laugh.
“Hey, hey! you guys!”
Gerard didn’t even look at us.
They only mercilessly hunt witches.
‘T, that guy, don’t tell me…’
Gerard Schmidt.
It seems that he has already turned bad.
‘Are you going to make us lose points?!’
I ran to Gerard in a hurry.
“C, can’t you stop catching them now?”
“….”
Then, as if to show me, he threw the sword on the floor and concentrated—.
Whoosh!
He burned the wolf in front of my eyes with magic.
Ten at a time.
‘What, what! Ranged attack magic? Really?’
I opened my mouth wide.
“Whoa! Brother is the best!”
“Let’s hurry up and pick it up!”
Bruce and his crew were excited to pick up the fallen cores.
“G, guys! Wait a sec! for a moment! Stop it, Gerard!”
“Lilith.”
Gerard smiled and looked back at me.
“So why didn’t you join me in the same group?”
“What?”
He burned another group of demon beasts and ran his sweaty hair through his hair.
“Are you doing this on purpose? Because I didn’t team up with you?”
“Think as you please.”
“Wow.”
Even though he was a swordsman, he was dealing with magic that only the magic department uses.
‘He was going to deliberately disturb us from the start.’
Range-type attack magic that can catch multiple targets at once.
It’s a Grade C too.
It is difficult to memorize, and casting is not easy even if you memorize it, and the amount of mana consumed is enormous.
‘He came here because he was so skilled at something that wasn’t even his major…?’
I’m going crazy.
With the intention of sabotaging us in the first place, he has mastered even the difficult Grade C attack magic in non-majors.
Of course, there was no conversation.
233, 228, 222…
I saw the rapidly decreasing number of monsters, and hurriedly ran to our crew.
“Guys!”
Just in time, Cheshire caught and passed a beast, and the score screen appeared.
! Group B, enter!
Lilith Rubinstein: 46 points
Cheshire : 0 points
Jem: 0 points
Rom: 0 point
I called out quickly.
“Cheshire! Hurry up and eat that! And both of you absorb the cores as soon as they come out!”
“What? Then what about you? Should I fill in the points first?”
Jem was confused.
“No, I’m fine! Anyway, they said that if you get over 1,000 points, you can share the remaining points!”
“Ha, but they are catching them all. Demon beasts run out quickly, so it’s hard to collect all 1,000 points. Maybe from you…”
At that time, the wolf rushed behind Jem who hesitated.
‘Argh! Grade C offset shield!’
30sec
30 seconds of life.
Pang, the blue shield cancels out one attack and breaks.
Surprised Jem trembled.
“Did you see it? This is no joke, Jem! We’re running out of time, so listen to me!”
“Oh, eung! Okay!”
“L, L, Lilith… I, I think it would be a bit d, difficult without a shield…”
Rom, who was watching, almost cried as he said.
Looking at Gerard’s side, all the members of the team were standing safely in the hemispherical shield.
One of them looked at me and twisted his lips as if mocking.
‘It looks like he has a defense-type ability. You organized the party properly.’
Rom bowed his head.
“I, I’m sorry, Lilith… B, because I, I’m so useless…”
“Ack! No, Rom. I also memorized some defense magic, so I know how to use it.”
I saw Cheshire and Jem.
Skilled martial arts majors who have to cut and hit their way through enemy lines.
The two needed tricky shields that matched their movements.
‘Let’s see.’
I quickly looked at Oscar’s bracelet and started counting.
‘Grade C… is likely to consume too much life force, and Grade D! Grade D floating shield!’
10 sec/min
10 seconds of life per minute?!
‘Ugh. The floating shield should continue to burn life force per minute…’
It was my first time using it, but I didn’t have time to think about it. I immediately put a shield on Cheshire and Jem.
“Listen, guys! I had to conserve mana, so I went with a Grade D shield! It can hurt a little, so if you can’t stand it, come and get treatment from Rom in the middle!”
“Y, yeah! Okay!”
“Me and Rom have shields, so don’t worry and you can go far! Catch as many as you can!”
I put a Grade B shield on me and around Rom.
It’s Grade B, so it has 10 minutes of life force.
However, since it was a fixed type, there was no need to continuously burn vitality, so it was not bad for the cost performance.
“Rom, let’s not move here for now and think about it. This is a Grade B shield, so no matter how many Grade C monsters…”
Kaang—!
Krrrr.
A wolf clawed at the shield and growled.
“S, see, Rom? No matter how much they attack, there’s no scratch from Grade C monsters, so don’t be afraid and relax.”
“Eung. But Lilith, I think it’s already too late…”
“Eung?”
I hurriedly looked at the score screen.
Grade A (1000 points): 2
Grade C (50 points): 85
The remaining Grade C, 85.
I drooped my shoulders.
‘I think it’s hopeless for all of our kids to graduate.’
At that time, Gerard, who came right in front of me, burned another group of monsters as if to show it.
“Whoa, the personality…”
“Puahaha!”
Bruce followed, picking up the core and absorbing it.
“W, w, what should I do, Lilith?”
“Oh wait! That’s right!”
I clapped my hands.
“Where’s the Grade A monsters?”
“Ah, that, I, I saw that when I came in, m, maybe it looks like this…”
“Eung?”
Rom pointed nearby.
A towering cliff.
My head went up.
“Oh my.”
A bear beast was standing alone at a height so high that I had to raise my head for a long time to see the top.
“D, don’t catch it…”
“Eung, that’s right.”
We can’t go up there directly.
Cheshire’s sword hadn’t even reached that distance yet.
Therefore, it is a beast that was released to catch the magicians who can use offensive magic.
But—.
‘No, how can I cast that high and that position at the level of the kids in the training center!’
I need Grade A casting magic to catch it.
However, in the training center textbook, only up to B grade are listed.
‘It’s ridiculous, really.’
Of course, I don’t need to draw a magic formula in my head, but there are restrictions because I don’t want my identity revealed.
I have to use only the magic formula I learned at the training center.
“Huh?”
Suddenly, at the bottom of the cliff, I saw a small letter engraved.
Cliff Height: 60m
‘Aha, I know how to catch it!’
Of course. A magic formula I hadn’t even learned would be necessary.
I looked at the scoreboard with a more relaxed mind.
Grade A (1000 points): 2
Grade C (50 points): 0
Meanwhile those with 50 points have been wiped out.
And our group—.
Lilith Rubinstein: 46 points
Cheshire: 0 points
Jem: 1050 points
Rom : 0 points
“W, what is this! Why is Cheshire still zero? Did you give all the points to Jem?”
It was strange to say so.
Cheshire catches three or four at a time, but they only caught about 20 in total.
“Lilith!”
Then Jem came running.
“Jem, Jem! What is it? Why is Cheshire still zero? Did he give you points?”
“Aah! No! This is because Cheshire didn’t absorb the core to give it to you. He alone has already caught over 30.”
“Ack! Just absorb it!”
“Now is not the time for this, Lilith. We have to go over there. Don’t you know he found a Grade A Witchbeast?”
I hurried back behind the canyon following Jem.
There was Cheshire.
And in front of him.
“W, w, what is that? I’m scared.”
There was a man-eating flower that looked three meters tall.
Every time the leaf was shaken grossly, poison spewed out, making it difficult to approach.
‘Is it impossible to approach? Then I can support it with magic from a distance!’
A long-range attack—!
“No, wait! Do you have a shield?”
—When I tried to do it, there was even a Grade A shield.
I smacked my lips.
Of course. If it’s easy to catch, why 1000 points.
“Lilith.”
“Ung, Cheshire.”
Chesier approached me and explained calmly.
“You can see it when you look at the magic shield, but you can’t catch this. Because all magic is repelled. It appears that they left it to the martial arts department to catch.”
“Eung, looks like it. Should I go closer and catch it with a sword?”
“That’s right. But that poison.”
The purple mist of poison swarmed around.
“We don’t know what kind of poison it is.”
“Aha, then! Can I upgrade your shield so that it doesn’t poison you?”
Cheshire smiled.
“Eung. Can you use a Grade B shield?”
“I can do it!”
As expected, we worked well together.
‘Grade B floating shield for one person!’
30sec/1min
I immediately strengthened Cheshire’s shield.
It was then.
“Can’t you put a floating shield on?”
“I, I can’t use that yet… I’m sorry, Brother Gerard.”
That persistent Gerard!
It wasn’t enough for him to beat all the 50-point monsters, so he followed us the whole way and tried to beat the 1000-point monsters.
“What’s really wrong with him?”
Dumbfounded, Gerard walked barefoot toward the poisonous man-eating flowers.
Without a shield!
He showed that he would do whatever it took to stop us from eating 1000 points, even if it meant dying.
“It’s an illusion anyway, so even if it hurts, you’re just going to catch it while being hit?”
Jem was dumbfounded.
Perhaps that is what he meant, Gerard swung his sword while receiving a cloud of poison.
But—.
“It’s a paralyzing poison.”
“A paralyzing poison.”
“So it’s paralyzing poison.”
Because he hardens immediately after being poisoned, it must be paralysis poison.
Above Gerard’s head, which had hardened like a statue, man-eating flowers opened their mouth-like leaves.
“Kyaaaak!”
I was horrified.
The man-eating flower swallowed Gerard whole.
And
As soon as they saw that, they jumped out to rescue Gerard without hesitation.
“G, guys!?”
It was Cheshire and Jem!
‘Even Jem?’
I hastily strengthened Jem’s shield as well.
“Hugh.”
Unlike our kids, who jumped in to save another team member without looking back, Bruce just stood there and watched.
That personality who immediately turns a blind eye to the bus driver who’s been struggling alone.
“Wow…”
Bruce glanced at me as if he was ashamed.
“You guys are so pathetic….”
I said with a disgusted look.
