Ignis 5 senses are extremely sharp. That is because he could only use the Spell {Fireball}, so he had to continue to improve anything outside of Spells that he could get his hands on. Thats why he could follow his nose and trace back the burning stench that was the smell of human stagnation, and returned to the original large room they were in before.

Over here!

The Black and White Sisters were already engaged with the enemy.

They could hear the sounds of battle from afar.

But Igni and Elina could not help but pause and hesitate for a moment when they saw that.

Elina: What.is that? Igni: ......! Dont stop, Elina!

With lightning fast reflexes, Igni shoved Elina away, and kicked the ground as they parted from one another. The next instant, <BAM!!>, something invisible dropped where the two were just standing. Glancing behind him, Igni saw that there was a large hand print left behind.

Rania: Be careful! You cant see its attacks!

Igni: Got it!

The Elder Sister, Rania, shouted out orders as Igni obediently followed them and ran forward. The thing had an abnormally engorged head and had the look of a fetus. It was floating about 2 meters (6.5 feet) from the ground, and its eyes were closed as if it was sleeping.

But on its head, every inch was filled with eyes and mouths.

The countless eyes followed Igni, Rania, Nie, and Elina.

Igni: So gross.!

Igni shouted aloud and created a {Fireball} in his hand.

Igni: [Equip Flame] : {Ignition}!

Behind Igni, 5 {Fireballs} were created and glowed white with heat.

The {Fireballs} let out a metallic squeel as unbelievable amounts of concentrated Magic Power were stuffed into each one.

Igni: [Launch] : {Fire}!!

<KYUDO!!> (*sfx)

The {Fireball} was fired and accelerated with explosive speed, and the sound of air compression followed it as it collided..not against his intended target, but in the air.

Igni: ........are you serious?

Igni mumbled to himself, as he felt blood lust from the air once again.

He kicked the ground and felt something brush against his back as it passed by.

A chill ran down his spine.

The invisible hand tried to capture Igni just now.

Rania: There are times when our attacks dont work!

Igni: Is it blocking it?!

Rania: Probably, yeah! With that invisible hand!

As soon as Rania was finished shouting, the younger sister began manipulating Magic Power.

Nie: [Those who crowd under the earth, carve it down].

From Nies [Darkness] Type Magic, her shadow suddenly exploded outwards.! Countless small soul-like objects came out and each one seemed to have a life of its own and headed straight for that thing.

<Gi-Gi-Gin!!> (*sfx metallic collision)

And instead of the sound of a Magic Spell impacting, the sound of metal grinding against metal echoed across the room.

Igni: [Equip Flame] {Ignition} : [Anti-Armor] {Pierce}!

In that moment, Igni saw the two giant hands that were floating in the air and pushing away the oncoming darkness. Those were probably the same hands used for both attacking and defending.

Then, if those two hands are both defending right now, then they should be able to continuously attack.

Igni: [Launch] {Fire}!!

<DON!!> (*sfx)

And the {Fireball} that was spun at extreme high speeds took a ovular shape and was sent straight at the thing! And impacted!!

Fire and wind erupted from the explosion and spread in all directions. Nies Spell pushed the smoke aside, and made that thing reappear.

Elina: ........SH!! (*sfx exhale)

From behind, Elina let out a short breath. And in a blink of an eye, Elina teleported right in front of him. No, she didnt teleport. Through {Physical Enhancement}, she drew and attacked with her sword with incredible speed.

The babys head was now covered in burns and two large gashes from Elinas sword were engraved into it further.

Elina: [Thorns of the Rose Spear] {Plant Lance}

With Elinas incantation, the thing was pierced from underneath by a giant rose vine in the shape of a spear.

Igni: [Equip Flame] {Ignition} : [Anti-Armor] {Pierce}

The vine would only hold it for a moment.

The next instant, it was being torn apart by something unseen.

The two hands were heading for the rose vine.

Igni: [Launch] {Fire}

Five of Ignis Spells were slammed into the thing.

Explosive fire enveloped and engulfed the baby monster completely and burned it away.

Losing the majority of its body, watching it suffer in agony was not a pleasant sight.

Rania: Everyone, on your guard!

But even in under that circumstance, the Elder Sister Rania yelled out orders.

Igni: On guard?! From what?!

Rania: That thing will repair itself!

As soon as Rania was finished yelling, the babys body returned to normal as if time was turned back.

Igni: Hey! You could have told us earlier!

Though Ignis criticism is valid, Rania only responds with a bitter expression on her face.

Rani: Its no use! That things body, even if we wipe out its ashes, it still comes back!

Igni: ........what do you..

Igni searches through his memory. Forget its looks. An abnormal regenerative ability. Invisible attacks. Is there something that matches those descriptions..?

Though he searched hard, no answer came back.

Next, Igni felt something hit him from the side.

Igni: .........! [Impact] {Fire}!!

While Igni was flying through the air, he detonated a {Fireball} that explodes in one particular direction to slow him down and he barely landed against the wall.

Elina: Are you okay?!

Igni: I let my guard down. Im okay!

As Elina yelled in concern, Igni immediately answered her and a certain Spell crossed his mind.

Igni: [Equip Flame] {Ignition}

And he filled the entire room with countless {Fireballs}.

Igni: [Launch] {Fire}

ZUDODODODODO!!!! (*sfx)

Hundreds of thousands of {Fireballs} shaved and carved off the babys body.

But all of the wounds were regenerating quickly.

Elina: ........even Ignis Spell didnt work

Elina lets out a whimper of despair.

Igni let out a sigh as he finally grasped what was happening.

<This thing is not a Monster at all.>

Thats why he dispelled all his {Fireballs}.

And turning towards the baby, he asked.

Igni: What is your condition? [.........oooOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUuuuu]

The air shook and the tunnels echoed as a massive wind blew through them.

Igni was the only one who calmly studied the baby as the wind swept over them.

The babys countless eyes began moving and searching all over endlessly.

[Bring it here] [Bring it here]

[Girl with blue hair] [black hair] [that one!]

[No, its red] [Today its white] [its not a girl, but a boy]

The countless mouths on its head began speaking interrupting each other.

[Bring it here] [Bring here]

[To this place] [Inside the mines!] [Anywhere on the mountain is fine]

[Alive] [No corpses]

The attacks from the baby ended.

But all the countless eyes were staring intently at Igni.

Feeling uneasy from a prick of doubt springing up inside of him, Igni summoned the courage to ask.

Igni: .........what is the name? And all the mouths of the baby opened and in unison, it answered at once.
