Part 10
The one that jumped out from the white painted carriage was Sylvie.
「Uwaah! Again, something incredible has come out!」
「How sinister......」
With their voice trembling, the one that came down from the carriage was a young lady that wore a pure white clergy outfit.
She was a platinum blonde that was close to white, and smooth skin.
She gazed with her hazel eyes.
In her hand, there was the silver bishop’s staff that only the High Chief Priest was allowed to possess.
Diablo ran over to the place those girls were.
「Lumachina!」
「Ahh, Diablo-sama!」
He spoke so as to get the better of her as she was about to kneel down.
「We’ll leave the talk for later! You’ve heard of what needs to be done from Sylvie, right!?」
「Yes.」
「Hit him hard with it!」
A bit late, Horun came with Angeline in her arms. Sylvie caught her as she was out of breath and about to collapse.
「Good job out thereー. Just leave the rest to us♪」
「Zeeh......zeeh......zeeh......」
With tremendous force, Europa came rushing over.
Its six legs kicked the ground, and a thick cloud of dust danced about. Holding swords in its three hands, it raised them overhead.
If they were to hit, it was doubtful as to whether even Diablo would be able to endure it. It would be hopeless for the others.
Lumachina concentrated.
Erecting her bishop’s staff, she stared at the target.
「If it is Diablo-sama’s word, even if I have to exhaust my life──O great God in heaven, exert your strength to cleanse this wicked one who is a calamity to this land and the people who are the children of God. Exorcise it. Eliminate the disaster, and give your blessing......」
──Will she make it in time?
He had no choice but to believe.
Suddenly, he had a thought.
He himself fought alone. He didn’t rely on companions. Even though that is how it should have been this whole time......
Right now, he relied on her.
Has he become weaker?
That might be true, but he mysteriously didn’t find it to be unpleasant.
Diablo focused on his own magic.
He took one more ring out from his pouch.
It wasn’t a 《Marriage Ring》 that he had made in Faltra City──
It was one more 《Demon King’s Ring》.
When the Great Demon King Modinalaam was defeated, it was an item that fell in the spot that he had vanished from.
If it were the game, it would be the reward drop item for the fastest subjugation.
In the MMORPG Cross Reverie, Diablo hadn’t obtained it, but if it was the one from Modinalaam......
《Insanity Ring》
He equipped it on the index finger of his left hand.
From the inside of his body, he felt magical power welling up. This was the feeling of his attack stats leaping up.
However, his defense stats similarly went to nothing.
To begin with, if he were to receive Europa’s attack, then there would most likely be no saving him.
He didn’t care about defense.
Diablo had a style of defeating enemies before they could attack since long ago. He was an 《Annihilation Magician》 that gained certain victory on the first move.
He put out his right hand.
「O spear of darkness──《Darkness Lance》!!」
To the point of surprising even himself, a powerful jet black spear suddenly appeared. It were as if it were a tear in space. A darkness as if a hole had opened up.
As if it were eroding the world, the darkness started to spread.
His hand trembled.
Lumachina raised her voice.
「Diablo-sama, it is ready!」
「Do it!」
「Here I go! 《Holy Fresh》[1]ッ!!」
As if swallowing up the entire Magic Academy, an intense light came falling from the heavens.
Its effect was close to the 《Asterisk Dispel Wand》.
However, everything that Lumachina considered as the target would be targeted. In this case, since it was only Europa, that difference wasn’t there though.
Another difference is that in contrast to how the 《Asterisk Dispel Wand》 could be resisted, 《Holy Fresh》 would absolutely succeed.
It wasn’t like the Charge Time being stupidly long was just for show.
The 《Curtain of the End》 that enveloped Europa as well as the other Buffs scattered away.
Its movements became remarkably slow.
Slowly, the three swords were swung down.
The enemy was already before him.
There was no way his aim would be off.
「Go! 《Darkness Lance》!!」
Diablo unleashed the jet black spear. What it hit was, the 《Shining Lance》 that was still pierced in Europa’s tongue.
A spear of light and a spear of darkness.
The instant those two met, an explosion of magical power that was no less than the two of them combined occurred.
In the past, Diablo used 《Darkness Cannon》. When a man called the Head of the Holy Knights fired a 《Shining Blow》 at it, a shockwave stronger than expected had sprung forth.
There was also the time he experimented with it when he dove into the dungeon with Sylvie.
「It’s Composite Magic! Burst open!!」
The torrent of pure energy turned the Destruction God Europa into dust.
The scales with metallic properties were broken, and its head that had a human shape vanished, and even its three arms were scattered in all directions. As for the lower half of its body that escaped the initial annihilation, it was smashed by the shockwave.
Everything shook.
Countless cracks ran through the schoolyard.
The blue brick school building started to shake, and the academy’s outer wall that had history to it crumbled.
Even the side gate was blown away.
Only the area around the carriage had somehow endured it.
Diablo had immediately casted 《Air Wall》. It was a magic that produced a gap of air, and had the effect of intercepting things if they were a type of shockwave.
But even so, Horun and Angeline raised screams.
Lumachina, with an expression of having faith, gazed at Diablo.
