Welcome to the Impregnable Demon King Castle - Chapter 219.3

219 – The Theory of the Strong People (Part 3)

It seemed to be called Roll Over of the Sea God.

The Spirit Magic that Wraith cast was on a scale as if a giant god sleeping in the sea had turned over, then it would certainly create such a fearsome scene.

A really huge wave.

The other three people took refuge on Melania’s shoulders.

I wondered how many people would be able to resist the raging fury of nature.

Most of those who were swallowed up did not come up to the water surface afterward, they got sent off the field.

「How many points was that… well, I guess we won’t know yet. That’s okay, let’s just go defeat more contestants.」

『Wh-wh-what…?!!! As soon as the round started, large-scale Spirit Magic exploded in each area…!! A considerable amount of contestants have been sent off the field in an instant!』

『A-ahaha… Since the number of people was narrowed down immediately, I guess the audience no longer has to worry about where to look. The four reckless Heroes have done very flashy attacks, but don’t worry! This is not the end!』

『That’s right. There are contestants who are still alive and well even after being subjected to Spirit Magic of that scale! Also, the time until the fight between these four parties is nearing!』

『If 5,000 points are equally divided by 4, it’ll be 1,250 points, but there might be other powerful parties in the other venues who might get more than that amount, right? The important point is not the ranking in this venue, but rather the overall ranking.』

『If the contestants do not annihilate the strong parties in the venue before they defeat too many other contestants, the total amount of points they can earn will inevitably decrease. The decision must be very difficult to make for the contestants who are aiming for a high overall ranking. They have to decide whether they should quickly earn points or defeat the parties that seem capable of earning a lot of points first.』

A live commentary is something that won’t be heard in a Dungeon Clear.

Well, I’ve experienced live commentary in the Tag Tournament, so I’m not that surprised.

「Josh, feet.」

Fran said.

「Yeah!」

Josh cast Leg Strength Up on Fran.

When Fran went down to the muddy ground, her figure disappeared. Looking at the gouged-out mud, I understood that she had jumped to somewhere else with a terrifyingly strong jump.

I put my hands on the hilt of the Holy Sword.

I didn’t pull out the sword, but there’s a reason as to why I’m doing this.

This Holy Sword was also endowed with the ability of a wand.

The Holy Sword is better than the sword wand that I used in the Tag Tournament, so this time I only brought the Holy Sword.

『The kindness of customizing it according to my partner. Have you fallen for me now?』

…That’s not possible, but thanks.

Most of those who escaped the huge wave were flying.

Whether they are flying with magic or with wings, the effectiveness of Black Magic remains the same.

I cast magic using the Magical Energy that was poured into the Holy Sword.

Confusion.

They fell down because the movements of the wings were disrupted or because they failed to maintain their magic.

That short amount of time was enough for Wraith.

Thin streaks of water, that looked as if it was coming out of a hose, gushed out like a geyser.

Offensive magic that gives directionality to pressured water, Water Blade.

「Nice assist, Lem.」

According to the rules of the qualifying round, the last 2 contestants that attacked and caused damage to the contestant that was sent off the field are recorded and the points are divided between them.

In other words, if my Confusion and Wraith’s Water Blade caused that contestant to be sent off the field, both of us will get 5 points each.

This calculation also applies to attackers from different parties, so if someone defeats a wounded opponent, then the points might be split with someone from another party.

We have to take this rule into consideration when fighting, but this rule is very typical of Fellow.

Since he is someone that takes into consideration those with an unfavorable Job, he probably adopted this method so that even the support members can earn points.

For example, if Fran, who has been strengthened by White Magic, caused a contestant to be sent off the field, the points will be split between her and Josh.

Similarly, if the damage was caused by a registered Demi-Beast used by a Beast Master, the point will also be counted as belonging to the Beast Master.

The points earned by an individual can be checked later, so the hard work of those who have an unfavorable Job, which until now has not been visible, can be clearly seen in the form of points.

「Please hold on…okay?」

Josh and I were on Melania’s shoulder, but after hearing her words, we immediately grasped her clothes.

「O-okay.」

A big rock that was lying nearby was thrown along with her cute voice.

Just as I heard the dull air-piercing sound of the rock being thrown, I heard a scream.

The rock that Melania threw hit a contestant that was falling down from the air because of Confusion.

『The up-and-coming Wraith Party! Not only were two of their members so successful in the raid battle, but the other three are excellent as well! A Miner excels in physical strength, arm strength, and stamina, but it seems that for a Giant Miner, even a single throw can be a killing blow! This has created a commotion among the audience!』

『The White Sorcerer Josh and the Black Sorcerer Lem have been earning a lot of points by supporting the other members. By the way, in this qualifying round, it will be possible to see how many contributions did those with a support Job provided to…』

The two commentators were busy talking about the battle situations, including ours.

「I-I did it.」

「Ahaha, good job Melania!」

「Y-yes… Ehehe.」

While complimenting his friends, Wraith froze the drenched survivors, attacked the opponents in the sky with Water Blade, and for those who were still not defeated by all those attacks, he drew his Holy Sword and engaged against them in close combat.

That’s right. Since Wraith has officially made a contract with the main body of the Water Spirit, he has decided to let his weapon get turned into a Holy Sword.

The weapon is a short sword that is easy to handle so that even his small body can handle it. However, the sword itself was made heavier in consideration of the physical strength of a Hero.

After being turned into a Holy Sword, the sharpness and the power of the slashes made by the weapon have been greatly improved.

「Ha…haha, what a reliable comrade.」

Said Josh while maintaining the White Magic he cast on Fran.

「You too. …Once you can cast more magic, enhance Wraith’s physical strength.」

「Okay! I’m preparing for it!」

A Hero is an all-rounder.

Because it’s like a Job that combines a Warrior and a Wizard and further strengthens the result.

Also, rather than a vanguard, Destroyer is more like an irregular combat-type Job.

Our result will be a lot better if we just let them go fight freely.

The Black Sorcerer and the White Sorcerer will accurately give them support so that they can fight more smoothly, and the two supporters will be protected by Melania, who is a Half-Cyclops.

Cyclops is a race that specializes in blacksmithing and construction, and it seems that the Job of Miner and Lumberjack has been common for them since a long time ago.

However, although Miner and Lumberjack are necessary Jobs, it tends to be looked down upon as a Job for those who do not have the prided skills of blacksmithing and construction.

When Melania saw that Wraith was recruiting comrades, she thought it was a chance to get out of her current situation.

She will do her best to make Wraith, who welcomed her as his comrade, become 1st Ranked.

「L-Lem. Thank you…for the Black Magic. Thanks to you, i-it was easy to hit him.」

Her words naturally made me smile.

I didn’t look at her, kept on concentrating, and responded to her.

「I’m glad to hear that. We are also able to concentrate on giving support thanks to you.」

「…! Eh-ehehe… that… fuhehe… uh, I won’t let them lay a finger on you two… ehe… I’ll do my best…」

While swinging her body slowly, Melania took out her round shield and her club, then she struck the club against the ground.

We were shaken because of the tremendous shock, but we somehow managed to withstand it.

The approaching huge serpent Demi-Beast couldn’t withstand the shock and got sent off the field with a single blow.

「It looks like there’s a Summoner. From what I sensed just now, he should be nearby, but I can’t confirm his Magical Energy signature… It’s probably because of a Magic Tool. I didn’t get any information about someone having a Magic Tool, but looking at the serpent that had just appeared…」

I came up with a guess for the opponent that is probably lurking nearby.

「Lem…did you memorize all of that information?」

I shook my head when I heard what Josh said.

「No way. I only did that for the contestants that I feel cautious against. Melania, can you strike the ground once again with the club?」

「L-leave it to me…!」

We were shaken again, but the height of Melania’s shoulder is quite convenient.

The view is good and it is impossible for the opponents to attack me and Josh even if Melania did not see the sudden attack.

I think it’s an advantage for those with inferior physical abilities because they have a support Job to be able to give support from a safe zone.

「Ah, I-I think I just blew away a contestant.」

We knew that a contestant got sent off the field because there were Magical Energy particles scattered around.

From the moment the club struck the ground, the surrounding ground was cleared away.

Although she’s a Half-Giant, it could become a terrible ranged attack when she did that.

I hope that the contestant who was defeated was the Summoner, the master of that serpent.

「Lem! A Giant is coming! A Giant!」

Wraith cheerfully shouted.

「It’s so big…!」

Said Melania.

It was so huge that even Melania said that he’s big.

He’s probably pure-blooded, not half.

…Really, he’s so gigantic. Everyone had noticed him even before the start of the qualifying round.

It appears that he has decided to aim for us.

Wraith has expended a lot of Magical Energy due to the large-scale magic of Roll Over of the Sea God and the battles so far.

It will take some time for him to create enough Magical Energy to cast that large-scale magic again.

「Josh, focus your White Magic on Fran. I want Melania to let us down and go attack the Giant. Wraith should retreat for a moment! Fran! You will be the one to deliver the finishing blow…!」

I’ve already experienced defeating Giants with my excellent comrades in the Original Dungeon.

It’s okay, I can do this.

I poured Magical Energy into the Holy Sword.

『You look like you’re having fun, huh?』

Yeah, I’m enjoying this.

Everyone is earnestly exerting their strength so that we can win.

There’s no way that this is not enjoyable.
