Volume 16 Chapter 20 Goldred, On The Attack
In order to use the 4th spell of enchantment magic, I need a huge amount of points and an unknown condition called the 'Crest of Domination'.
At the moment, it was impossible to use.
So, my trump card is still the 3rd spell of enchantment magic, but...
It also requires a significant amount of points, so it's not something I can easily use.
Furthermore, there might be a spell within Goldred's [Change] variation that can defend against my 3rd spell.
It's best to hold off until a situation where I can definitely hit the opponent arises.
In that case, how should I go about defeating the Phoenix Blaze King...
"It seems like you're at a dead end. You can use up to the 3rd spell, right? Why don't you try firing it?"
Is he provoking me?
In other words, he's confident that he can defend against or overcome me even if I use the 3rd spell.
Of course, his words might just be a bluff, and there's a possibility that using the 3rd spell could deal decisive damage, but...
I can't act recklessly.
"By the way, each ability of the 'Relic Holder' can use multiple spells. This applies not only to me but to other holders as well. To be able to use each spell, certain conditions need to be met... I'd like to explain in more detail, but it's not the right time for that now. Too bad."
Goldred let out a disappointed sigh.
"――Alright, Phoenix Blaze King."
Goldred instructed the magic bird by his side.
Screeeeee!
In the next moment, its cry turned into a shockwave of sound pressure and slammed into me.
"Tch..."
Since I was wearing several defense items enhanced with Enhancement Bestowal, I naturally took no damage.
"This..."
I tried to counterattack with Refaid Sword, but the shockwave was neutralized by a 'distortion space' deployed in front of it.
"It seems like it won't work after all――"
"It looks difficult for either of us to land a decisive blow."
Goldred furrowed his brow.
"Well, I guess I'll have to spend a few more points to ensure a kill. I wanted to save points considering the battles with other holders, but――."
Vrr... Vrrrrrr...!
The surrounding space vibrated.
Goldred once again took something out from his pocket.
It was a small stone tablet.
Something seemed to be engraved on its surface.
Is he a magician...?
However, he has wings growing from his back.
"Just like with Phoenix Blaze King—this is a token, Rain."
Goldred smirked.
"Using this token as the core of the image, I will 'Change' it into my servant."
This guy...!
I started to feel more anxious.
Judging from his tone just now, it seems that the ritual Goldred is about to perform will be on par with the creation of Phoenix Blaze King.
Besides Phoenix Blaze King, he still has another trump card up his sleeve!
"Spending 333333 points, activating the 3rd spell formula of [Change] as the 'Relic Holder'――"
Goldred raised the stone tablet.
"[Transformation][Type: Demon][Category: Legendary]――Come forth, 'Black Demon King' Grandilis!"
――And then.
A figure about 2m (6'56ft) tall appears by Goldred's side.
Dressed in a jet-black robe, resembling a magician.
Carrying a golden staff in hand.
Additionally, wings sprout from his back.
Compared to the Phoenix Blaze King, his body size is almost the same as a human.
However, his imposing presence―boasted the same tremendous power as the Phoenix Blaze King.
"Grandilis―a legendary Demon King who once clashed with the hero Revain. Although several Demon Kings have appeared since then, he is likely the strongest among them... How will you face off against two legendary beings, Rain, alongside the Phoenix Blaze King?"
Goldred smiled.
"Ugh..."
"Demon King-class magic――"
Grandilis raises the golden staff.
"[Dark Demon King's Annihilation Roar]"
A massive black light sphere is unleashed.
A magic imbued with immense magic power unique to a Demon King.
"Tch..."
I raised the Refaid Sword.
The light sphere was too huge to dodge.
"I have no choice but to slash through it――"
I swung the sword down.
The surging Shockwave clashed with the black light sphere and both vanished.
"Phew... I managed to offset it somehow."
"To nullify my magic... You must possess power equal to or greater than a Demon King."
Grandilis glared at me.
Screeeee.
Beside it, the Phoenix Blaze King also glared at me.
...It's chilling to be glared at by both of them simultaneously.
"Uh oh, this situation is really bad...!
Even though I have my Refaid Sword Enhanced up to +20000, facing off against Phoenix Blaze King and Grandelis is no joke.
And to top it off, Goldred will probably join in for support.
I need to find a way out of this situation somehow.
And then, suddenly...!
Vrrrr...!
The space trembles.
Something black appears in front.
And then,
"Grrr!?"
In the next moment, the Demon King's upper body disappears out of nowhere.
No, it was 'devoured'.
By something black that emerged from the void.
