Volume 1 Chapter 32

「Ma… Master.」

While she looked up at his familiar face with a weak voice, he goes and recover the staff he just threw earlier, then uttered lowly at her.

「Ah, it's been a while since the last time I saw you, Mel and I'm very glad you're alive—you did your best in dealing with the magic beast who's repeatedly regenerating, despite the fact that battle of attrition is your weakness.」

Eisen lends her a shoulder to lift her up from the ground. She then gently touches his hand—

「Its warm. This is not a hallucination.」

「That's right. I'm here right now.」

While he was talking to her—

「President Mel—are you safe?」

A woman with a sword in her hand came running to her. She was one of the Magic University's guard corps mentioned in Yurika's story. From how she carries herself, Eisen concludes that she was the chief of guard corps.

「Y-Yes… I am fine.」

Mel says to her with a smile. Although she only said so as not to make her worried. He could feel her tremble as he lent her his shoulders.

「You must be tired. Chief of guards, please take care of Mel.」

「Huh? Y-Yes.」

And so, while leaving Mel to the Chief—

「Master! Finally, I've caught up with you! I'm ready to support you—」

Rinne came running behind Eisen. Eisen was alone when he came rus.h.i.+ng in advance at the course of Mel's fight but it's good that she was able to follow behind him.

「Now then, Rinne, just as what I've told you to do while we were on our way here. We have to ask for the evacuation of those who were injured with Yurika.」

「Yes, please leave it to me. Yuriksan is also making some potions at the rear, I'll protect everyone while they use the potions!」

If they act according to the plan——to leave the rescue and evacuation of people to them, it would be perfect.

「I'll be getting rid of this one. I'm off.」

Eisen walked towards the t.i.tan Ogre with the staff in his hand.

「WhWhat?! Hey, you! What do you think you're doing?! It's dangerous for a support job cla.s.s with a staff getting close to it! 」

The chief of the guards supporting Mel shouted in confusion. She was worried about him after guessing his job cla.s.s by looking at his equipment.

「Yes, it's a staff—but it's all right, since I don't only use it as a staff.」

「E-Eh?」

Eisen understood her sentiments but this wasn't a big problem for him. While thinking about that, he looked back at the t.i.tan Ogre. It was as if the magic beast was observing how Eisen deflected his ice bullet. It was carefully preparing a large ice bullet above it, as if it were to make them hesitate. And so—

「Now then, t.i.tan Ogre. I came here to talk to my apprentice who I haven't seen for a long time. Sorry, but I'd like for you to leave now.」

It then shouted back—

「Ou—!!」

The t.i.tan Ogre held up its ice mace in right hand walked towards Eisen's direction with a clear killing intent and aura of hunger. Apparently, it was a big eater. If he could only talk to it, he would want to make it leave the field.

(It could not understand me.)

「Can you speak?」

He came without a stop. If this is it, then it has been decided. He held up his staff. From here on out, it's all according to his expectations. He will do what he has to do with the power of his job cla.s.s.

「t.i.tan Ogre. I have foretold the word of your defeat.」

Mel watched as the Ogre rushed with the mace in its hand while Eisen faces it calmly. It made her think how many years has pa.s.sed that she hasn't seen her master's back.

「P-President Mel! I need to help him! This is dangerous! How could a Magician even—」

The chief of the guard corps that's been applying the first-aid to Mel said next to her.

「A Magician? Who?」

「T-That man! Well, since he carries a stick, isn't he a magician? How could he even fight in close combat using that… If he doesn't have a defensive magic, he'll surely die!」

She argued impatiently. Indeed, magicians aren't perfect for close combat fights, so her words aren't far from the truth. However—

「That staff is the only weapon he has but its fine, since his staff isn't entirely a staff.」

「Eh?」

Mel wasn't worried at all.

「Ooo……!!」

Even at the moment where the t.i.tan Ogre is about to hit Eisen with its ice mace, her thoughts haven't wavered. And as if to support her belief—

The t.i.tan Ogre's ice mace that's on its way to Eisen stopped midway. The reason for this is clear.

「You're slow, t.i.tan Ogre」

Eisen catches the ice mace. With a thud, he released the shaft of his staff and reveals a silver blade.

「A staff with a sword?!」

The chief's eyes widened and shouted this in surprise but before she could even finish her words, Eisen began his next move.

「【Body Acceleration】―【Instantaneous Strength】」[1]

The moment he said those words, Eisen's sword cut through the elbow to the right arm of the t.i.tan Ogre.

「Gu!? ――OUUU!?」

The t.i.tan Ogre who's had his arms cut down, shouted in agony and immediately backed off. However, its will to fight hasn't wavered and instead, looked at Eisen with anger. On the other hand, Eisen raised his sword once more to the t.i.tan Ogre after wiping the blood on his sword.

「Since when did he swing his sword?! I couldn't even follow him?!」

The chief uttered in surprise.

「I know he used the magic Body Acceleration, but I've never seen a magician that can strengthen himself that much!」

Even those with the magician job cla.s.s, there's the magic of Body Acceleration. However, even after doing so, they still act as a support. The reason for that is because they couldn't keep up with the movements of the other job cla.s.s. That's why for the chief, this was all odd.

「Aren't those the moves of a melee job cla.s.s?! How can he do that? No, how come he has the strength to deliver such a heavy blow?!」

「Of course, that's natural, Chief. That's because he isn't a magician.」

「He's not a magician?」

That's right. Because—

「He is the man who mastered the Prophecy Magic. He is the one who taught me the basic of magic… and even beat me down in melee battles. He is the master of the heroes, a man that's far too stronger than any of us!」
