The Author Reincarnated?! [Vol. 5] Chapter 8 – Gargoyle

Three Gargoyles danced over our heads.

Its even weirder that they attack while not uttering a single sound.

Here they comeShoot now!

At Crescent Moons command, a sling and a bow were fired at once.

The Gargoyle lost its posture while trying to attack for an instant because of the shock.

Oops-a-daisy!

Not missing this chance, Doji jumped up and swung his axe down on it.

Mmm, its rather resilient to not get torn from that.

However, the damage seemed to take its toll on it.

Pick slung a stone with her sling at the Gargoyle which came from the furthest end of the hall.

As it wasnt able to come over here anymore this attack had enough power to confine it.

This is great, isnt it?!

Right? Well, though its simple magic its useful. You, shall I bestow this onto your sword as well?

Kitora turned towards me and asked me proudly.

A Great sword that explodes whenever it cuts something is dangerous and I cant bring myself to use something like that.

No, Im good

What, how boring. It seemed interesting.

While saying such things Knopf shot her storm magic towards the Gargoyle on the left.

Because of its hard skin this, too, seemed to be ineffective but it lost its balance.

Okay, lets try and see if flames are effective against you, shall we?

Fire Sword

I call Reus and chant the incantation.

I slashed at the Gargoyle heading towards me with the sword coated in flames.

A strong shock as if I hit rock rings through my hands.

If this sword wasnt made out of Oricalcum it would have absolutely shattered.

Oh well, it may be more common to smash things instead of cutting them with a great sword like this.

Oh, you did it, Akatsuki!

For a moment, I took my eyes of the enemy and unintentionally looked at the blade before Crescent Moons voice brought me back to my senses.

It seems like my sword hit the root of its wings and now couldnt fly anymore because they are half torn off.

Anyway, Im glad I was able to deal some damage.

Ill finish it Stone Spear!

The moment Knopf cast her magic a pointed, inverted cone-shaped, stone spear appeared over the Gargoyles head.

Isnt that thing considerably heavy?

That gigantic spear too humongous to call it just a spear dropped straight down on the Gargoyle.

It blew up dirt and dust as it crashed into the Gargoyle.

Despite the Gargoyle originating from a stone statue and in conclusion being hard, it got smashed into oblivion not even leaving a piece of stone in its place.

Uoo, this is amazing as well!

Crescent Moon raised a surprised voice addressing the power of Knopfs magic.

Its impossible to aim with something of that size so I just dropped it down on it

Knopf answered casually.

By the way, from where did you take the stone to form this spear?

While I was troubled about such things, Crescent Moon cooperates with Doji and tossed around one of the Gargoyles.

That fellow was visibly weakened by the repetition of those actions.

There didnt seem to be an issue there.

Big bro, here comes the next one!

The black Gargoyle which got confined by Picks sling came over here.

Black magic sure is handy.

Lets experiment with it a little more.

I instructed Reus to convert the flames of my Fire Sword into heat.

As it would become too soft if its too hot I asked Reus to be careful regarding that.

Oh.

There was less shock than a while ago and as an effect of the heat, it somehow was able to cut.

Big bro, it works!

Yes, I think so, too.

It couldnt fly high and its movements seemed pained.

I flew towards it and slashed at it in a flurry.

The Gargoyles body split in two under the shock and then shattered.

Were done over here as well

Crescent Moon and Doji blew down the right Gargoyle safely, too.

I thought such things while I watched the pieces turn to dust.

Those Gargoyles are the same as golems and are artificial demonic beasts made with black magic

As if she read my mind Kitora explained this to me.

This seems to be complicated.
