Chapter 238 – Cooperation!!
“Everyone, let’s go!!”
Erevan shouted, and we all spread out.
Erevan, Ashton and Haines took the lead.
They approached the Lindwurms.
And Rienna, Fule and I supported them from the back with magic.
I quickly cast a magic barrier, and blocked the thunder magic that the Lindwurms unleashed.
Rienna also created a magic barrier and said,
“Please leave the others to us! Lord Heal, you must help Prince Remlik!”
So Rienna and Fule would protected Erevan and the others.
“Alright!”
I would focus on supporting Remlik then… But where is he?
Before I knew it, Remlik and Ruda had disappeared.
Then I heard something crash, and raised my head. I saw the giant Lindwurm swinging its arms at the dragon of light—Ruda and Remlik.
The sounds of their arms clashing echoed like explosions.
Ruda’s plummet earlier had the force of a meteor.
His arm swings would have tremendous power as well.
It was no wonder he was considered the finest Vader warrior.
However, Remlik was not losing either.
At the very least, to my eyes, it looked like they were on equal footing.
However, as for support…what could I do at such a speed…
Both were moving at a speed that my eyes could not keep up.
If I unleashed attack magic, then I would probably end up hitting Remlik.
And so it was all that I could do to cast a magic barrier around Remlik’s body.
But that seemed to be more than enough, as Remlik’s attacks towards Ruda grew even more aggressive.
I suppose the barrier allowed him to take a few hits in order to strike back.
And that forced Ruda to take on a more defensive stance.
Remlik really was impressive.
However, Ruda’s eyes then started to be directed towards us.
He could grasp the movement of magic energy.
—So he noticed my magic.
If his attacks couldn’t deal damage to Remlik, then he would have to defeat me first.
But then again, he could not shake Remlik off in this situation.
And due to being distracted by me, Ruda seemed to fall even farther behind.
My presence contributed to slowing him down.
“Alright… Hmm?”
One of the Lindwurms came charging towards me.
Perhaps it had realized by Ruda’s look, that I was in the way.
And while I was impressed at how they cooperated, we were no different.
“Let’s go, brother!!”
“Aye!!”
With scimitars in hand, Ashton and Haines ran towards the Lindwurm.
The Lindwurm tried to use its long tail to whip them, but Rienna created a flash of light in front of its eyes.
And so the tail went through the air above Ashton’s head.
“Now, Mr. Ashton and Mr. Haines!”
“Thank you!”
“Understood!”
Ashton and Haines then slashed at the Lindwurms legs.
The strength left it then, and the Lindwurm fell heavily to the ground.
It had all happened so fast.
It was no wonder that they were considered to be the two swiftest in Sheorl.
On the other hand, Erevan tossed away his axe, and stood in front of a charging Lindwurm.
“That’s right!! Your magic doesn’t work on us!! If you want to come, then charge!!”
The Lindwurms’s thunder magic had been blocked by Rienna and Fule’s magic barriers.
And so they were forced into fighting up close.
Fule shouted with a worried expression.
“Father! It’s dangerous to fight without an axe!!”
“Well, just you watch!! Arrrghhh!!”
Erevan dodged the Lindwurm’s headbutt.
And then he grabbed the Lindwurm’s and threw him over his back.
The Lindwurm slammed into the ground, and then lay there, quite limp.
To be able to throw something that large…
Erevan’s had monstrous strength.
As for the Lindwurm, it was still breathing, so it was likely just unconscious.
I preferred to not kill them, so that might have been why he didn’t use a weapon.
“Well done, father!”
“Tsk, I have barely gotten started! Come at me, the rest of you!!”
Erevan continued, taking down the oncoming Lindwurms with martial arts.
Ashton and Haines, while being supported by Rienna and Fule, were also taking on the enemies which outnumbered them.
In any case, they were all doing well in the situation.
As for Ruda… Hmm?
Ruda flew high up into the air, as if to get some distance from Remlik.
He must have seen that the tide of battle was not in his favor.
If he retreated, all the better.
Remlik tried to chase after Ruda, but could not catch up.
And then after a moment, Remlik shot down towards us.
So the fight is over now… Or so I thought. But then Remlik shouted desperately.
“Everyone!! Gather together!! The attack is coming!!”
The others must have sensed something as well, as they quickly ran towards me.
And then I cast a thick magic barrier around us.
And then as if to protect us, Remlik covered us from above.
In the next instant, there was a great flash of light.
It’s really dissatisfying seeing an incompetent MC. I remember he was better before. Maybe the author is turning even the WN more in line with the pathetic version of the MC from the LN/manga.
Thanks for the chapter! Awesome translation! May God bless you!
