I Left the Non-virgin Party

#11. Showdown ( 17 )

At that time, fighting was still going on in Lottern.

Ravisu’s double body, which had entered Phase 2, was too much to win with only the strength of the heroes. Karin and Ren struggled to keep the fight going, but the tiredness was evident on both of their faces. It was very difficult to keep up with that pace.

“this!”

Five fireballs floated in front of Karin, whose face was smeared with soot. The fireballs flew in a pentagonal formation and landed on the wide back of the clone body. This was the biggest attack Karin could do. The clone let out a long scream. However, it was not a decisive blow. The frenzied clone swung the ax handle violently and attacked Karin.

“Dangerous!”

Zain, who was made of ice, blocked the way Karin could not avoid. It was Ren’s protection of her with a Jain made from his ‘Ice Snow of the Bonders’. It crossed its arms to block the ax handle, and then the flying ax blade as well. It had great durability, but that was it.

“──────────────────!!!”

“What, what?”

After tanking with ice and snow like that, Ren jumped from the roof and tried to attack his neck, but he was taken aback. It was because the feeling of intimidation emanating from the clone body suddenly multiplied several times. At that time, in the valley, Jain was inserting Gramhilt into the heart of Ravisu’s body. The main body was destroyed, and that mana flowed in and strengthened the double body. It fired an onslaught with red light shining from its eyes.

“Ugh!”

Ren hesitated because of the internal wound he felt in his chest. To maintain Jain’s ice and snow, a tremendous amount of mana was being sucked out. Ice and snow’s forearms began to crack. And, when the clone swung the ax for the last time, the ice and snow couldn’t hold out any longer and shattered into thousands of fragments.

“Kuk.”

Due to the shock of the skill being broken, Ren felt dizzy and stumbled. The cost of tripping off the roof was high. It had rolled down on the floor.

“it’s okay?”

Elaine hurriedly ran over and started healing Ren, who was coughing up blood. In response to the commotion, the clone turned its head in this direction. The ax that shattered Ren’s ice and snow soared through the cobblestones of the plaza. Then, he let go of the ax and howled loudly.

“──────────────────!!!”

It was because several arrows came flying and stuck in his forearm. They were arrows that Nael shot from afar. The replica let out a roar and pulled out the arrows. Again, a rain of arrows hit the clone body. The clone took a step back.

Nael gritted his teeth and pulled the string of his longbow. My fingers were red and swollen from so much protest during this fight. Whenever his comrades are in danger, Nael has been quick-firing an arrow to make the clone body retreat.

“ah.”

However, that was all there was to it. Nael’s complexion, which was stumbling upon tradition, turned white. It was because the arrows he had prepared for several barrels were out of stock. Nael turned his head and looked at the plaza where the fight was taking place. The clone body, which had nothing to do with it, was slowly walking toward Elaine while holding the ax horizontally. A huge shadow fell over Elaine. Elaine, whose face was pale and tired, opened her mouth blankly and stomped her butt.

“Okay, I was wrong!”

“──────────────────!!!”

The ax blade, raised high, glistened in the moonlight. Elaine closed her eyes and screamed. However, after a while, I woke up to the sound of metal. Someone was holding a sword and blocking the replica’s ax.

“Fortunately, it’s not too late.”

that was soya Holding a leather slash that had been deformed into a long attitude, she was leisurely parrying the clone’s axe. He swung his sword three times to break the clone’s posture, and as soon as the upper body was exposed, he swung it horizontally and cut off the clone’s chest. The skinning splattered blood in a clear arc like a meteor across the desert night sky. The clone groaned and took a step back.

“ah!”

Niall groaned. Even from a distance, just by looking at its characteristic blade, it was possible to tell that it was a soya. After making the clone body retreat, she elegantly swung her sword and wiped the blood off the floor. It looked like a kind of performance art rather than a sword-cleaning job. Then, Soya looked at the place where Nael was in the distance and smiled sadly.

“I, thank you, but who are you… ?”

Elaine looked at Soya and asked quietly. From behind, the clone body activates its regenerative powers to heal its wounds and rise again. Soya turned around and spoke softly to Elaine.

“I’m Nael’s friend. I’m here to help.”

At those words, Elaine’s complexion brightened. Field Rendo coughed and came to his senses. Soon after, the second game started again. This time, Soya performed the role of the vanguard that Ren had created before. The broken balance has returned. Again, the sound of weapons and magic colliding filled the Lottern Square.

“Everyone, shoot!”

And when the fight reached its climax, a dignified voice resounded. It was Nora. He went back to the guild, gathered the remaining shooters, and brought them. Under Nora’s command, they fired their guns with unusually wide muzzles.

“Don’t breathe the smoke! Avoid all of you!”

Nora shouted again. The soldiers Nora led fired were not ordinary bullets. It was a paralysis bullet used to capture monsters. The bullet did not pierce the hard clone’s skin, but when it touched the body, it created a purple haze and made the clone’s body numb. Amid the acrid purple smoke rising, the clone let out a silent voice.

Soya, who was next to the clone body, covered her mouth with her sleeve and stepped back like a ghost. It was not easy to understand what Nora was aiming for and did this. It was because the clone’s feet were tied, but he couldn’t penetrate the fog and attack. However, Nael was different.

“ah.”

Nael instinctively understood what he was aiming for and bound the clone’s feet. The pure white moonlight was pouring over her head. Nael threw down the empty quiver and raised all of his magic power. He was trying to create the moonlight arrow, a skill handed down by the twin elves.

“You have to be stronger than before.”

A moonlight arrow that completed Phase 1. Its power wasn’t enough. I had to double the power somehow. Nael began to forge the most powerful arrow he could make by overdoing it while working hard on himself. Soon, arrows emitting dazzling light began to sprout from her hand. Nosebleeds trickled down and soaked his philtrum. I scrubbed and wiped it, and forcibly set an arrow on the string. Then, he pulled the bow with all his might.

“Hold on… ”

Pulling was not easy. The longbow, which had already been savored by the overuse that had taken place all day, began to crack as soon as the arrow was applied. However, Nael gritted his teeth and pulled a protest. What I’m aiming for is the clone in the middle of the purple smoke. It was the heart.

“a little bit… little bit more.”

“careful.”

And, I felt a hand hugging me. Someone was overlapping Nael’s blanched hands as if to cover them, and pulling the strings together. When that hand touched, Nael’s longbow began to glow silver, just like an arrow.

It was Jain who had just arrived through the portal. The reason why Nael found it so difficult to use the skill was that originally, this skill was for two people to use together. Using the full moon’s blood to transform into an elf, Jain strengthened Nael’s bow. The reinforced bow withstood the moonlight arrows created by Nael, and fired the arrows as if venting resentment.

As if it were a missile, the arrow left a stream of air and pierced the purple mist and pierced the heart of the paralyzed clone.

“──────────────────!!!”

The arrow that hit the heart began to melt the entire body of the clone body with its light. The clone twisted its entire body and screamed for Lothern to leave. After a while, where the purple smoke cleared, the clone body was gone. Seeing the scene, Karin muttered blankly.

“Win, did you?”

There was no reversal this time. It was a perfect victory. At the same time as the declaration, the doors of the houses surrounding the plaza opened and people poured out. It was the residents of Lothern who watched the fight with bated breath. They surrounded the heroines who had been fighting fiercely just before, and were expressing gratitude and congratulations with tears.

“Uh, uh, that’s scary! Do not!”

The atmosphere was almost festive. It was to the point of holding the frightened Elaine recklessly and rinsing it off. At first, Elaine’s complexion turned blue from fear, but she soon began to enjoy it and smile broadly. Zain looked at that scene, let go of the longbow and smiled.

“I am.”

And, among the heroines who fought against the double body here, I turned my eyes to the only one who was not receiving congratulations. It was Neil.

“How about we go down together?”

And he hardened his face. Perhaps it was because he had poured too much mana into it, or it was because Nael fainted from exhaustion.

“To be stupid.”

Magical exhaustion was an abnormal condition that only required drawing and using mana to the limit. It is a symptom that is difficult to take on one’s own will. It was to prove how desperately Nael fought. Zain let out a sigh and knelt down to Nael. The moonlight poured in and illuminated the two of them. It seemed like I had to take care of him like this until he came to his senses.

*

It was late at night, when all the people gathered in the plaza had gone home.

Even then Zain and Nael remained in the watchtower.

“How foolishly you fought.”

Zain continued to pinpoint Nael’s energy and help him recover. As if that constant care had helped, Nael’s eyebrows twitched within a few hours of collapsing. And, I slowly opened my eyes. Jain sighed and said.

“Are you out of your mind?”

He didn’t seem completely sane. It was because his eyes were wide open. Nael looked up at Zain who was stroking his hair with his eyes wide open and said.

“Dad?”

Jain was still unresolved from Manwol’s blood. So now, Zain looked like an elf to the third person. So, looking at it with a blurred vision, it seems that I was mistaken about something. He seemed to think he was dreaming.

“I missed you… You just helped me from behind, right?”

Zain, who was about to say what you mean, closed his mouth. It seemed like a good thing to do. He just stroked his bruised forehead. Nael then smiled bashfully, crouched down, and burrowed into Zain’s arms.

“Like my dad said, I hate no one… Because I was a good kid. Because I got along well with everyone. Keeping your promise… help from heaven thanks.”

For a moment, Jain was silent. Nael’s personality is that he doesn’t fight with anyone and tries to be friends with anyone. Her relationship with her bereaved parents played a big part in that. She wasn’t ready to become an adult yet. Jain, thinking about how to answer this question, spoke softly.

“Great job.”

and stroked her hair That was the best Jain could do. Nael burrowed deeper into Zain’s arms and fell asleep laughing. Seeing that, Jain let out a sigh as he washed off Manwol’s blood. The moonlight was pouring down from the sky like the hem of a skirt.
