Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 502

 

Mirror



-Research team from Jormungand III. Were you able to retreat?-


"This is Commander Adler, we retreated. I'll ask for artillery fire."


-Roger that-



Shortly after communication between the company commander and the communication ends, a flash of light can be seen in the distance.



"Everyone lie down, they're coming!"



It's a giant bullet faster than sound


It is a blow with a huge magic stone on the verge of collapsing embedded inside.


It hit the giant golden slime perfectly, blowing away 30% of the slime with a huge explosion.



"Shit, it's not working!"



However, the blown mucus immediately gathers in one place and returns to its original form.



"It would be easier if we could destroy the core…"



But that slime didn't have a core.


Golden mucus is highly transparent and allows you to see the inside clearly.


But I can't see anything that looks like a core there.


All that's inside are corpses that's being melted down.



"Bullets have no effect either, they will melt."


"I guess so. Please stand back."


"Your Majesty?"


"I'll use magic"



No chanting required


With techniques passed down from the Istraze and Edgeworth families.


I have already finished chanting and stocked up.



"It is not as good as Archmage Harper, though."



I hold my palm towards the slime and pull the trigger in my head



"Eat this!"



What I release is Magic Lance, one of the magics that Shiro-dono taught me.


I activate 5 shots at the same time and hit the center of the slime directly.



"...Yeah, I did something wrong."



The golden slime became energetic.


In fact, it got even bigger



"Your Majesty, I will report the details to Lute-sama later."


"No, it's not intentional. Just emphasize that."



I didn't intentionally make it feel better.


After all, it can't be helped, right?



"I said to eat it, but I don’t think it’ll actually absorb it!"


"If it absorb His Majesty's enormous mana, it'll definitely feel better! Retreat!"



Everyone runs away as fast as they can.


And more fuckups follow shortly after.



"Cut in half [Rizaltsnaut]!"



A blow even bigger than my five magic lances hits the slime directly.



"Orbaaaaaaaaaa!"


"Hey! Why are you running around... Yeah, I did it now!"



Orba suddenly appeared and hit the slime with a huge blow before he could assess the situation.


And there was one more man running at full speed.



"W-what are you going to do, Zelius!"


"Alright, let's run away while Orba gets eaten!"


"This is rejected because it will become an international issue!"



The bullets from Jormungand III seemed to understand the situation, but they had no effect on the golden slime.


It has become so large that the explosion of the giant magic stone inside the bullet cannot penetrate it.



"Zelius, that's it. God's Spear!"


"No! That's a mana imbued with the greatest magic!"


"I see, it won’t work, it’ll get worse!"


"Would you like to bet?"



In such a situation, the company commander makes a proposal.



"What are you going to do?"


"We'll shoot all 260 of the God Spears!"


"There are 260!?"


"I'm going to make it eat it all. If it eat it all, it's body might not be able to handle it!"


"Certainly it might be effective if it eat it all in an instant?"


"It is useless!"


"No good?"


"Yeah, the God Spear takes time to load, so if it gets absorbed and becomes gigantic during that time, it’s over!"


"Then what are we going to do?"



Is this distance enough?



"Did you think I was just running away?"


"I thought so?"


"I thought so."


"Hahahahaha, I will hit you guys later."



I stop and look up at the giant golden slime



"Orba, release Rizaltsnaught again. Consecutively."


"…Is it okay?"


"Yeah, but immediately after my magic is activated."


"What are you going to do?"


"If it's going to expand to a huge size, we can just lock it up."



Orba had no other words to say.


I just start chanting



"Let's go. [The sword has a delicate blade like glass, rather than my own body..."



Too early, too early


My chant is longer, so I'd like you to match it.



"The whole universe is two sides, life is death, the beginning is the end.

 Incoming and outgoing, heat and cold, anger and sadness, light and darkness.

 

The past is the future, the past is the future, the glory is the decline, the gain is the loss.


 The universe is always two sides of the same coin.


 However, it is a mirror-like reflection.


 Therefore, sometimes it shifts, turns inside out, and reverses itself.


 Reversed, healing and growth become wound and decline.


 It was a trivial spark, an opportunity, a factor, a motive.


 It can be caused by a motive.


 In other words, my chant is a curse that reverses the entire universe..."


"Zelius, are you there yet?"


"…Reverse the power of harm, reverse the power of healing.


 Flip, flip, flip, transfer to the water surface and become a cage


 Contain it and rule it [Mirror of Narcissus]!"



Orba releases magic at the moment my magic is activated.



"[This single flash will be a slash of absolute destruction.


 Cut in half [Rizaltsnaut]!"



The golden slime is still


Then, it received Orba's blow exactly as we had aimed and it began to grow into a giant.
