The Reincarnated Boy's Growth Log ~The Harder I Work The Stronger I Can Become!?~ Chapter 12

Destruction Spear of Lightning Strike

〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜Aerith side〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜
Right now, I’ve come to the middle of the town. Over there is the sight of a large group of near 100 orcs attacking the residents. Naturally, I’ve come here before. The streets that were extremely crowded befitting of being in the middle of the town is now painted in red with blood. The stands that the residents line up and bought things as well, the long bench where lovers sat next to each other as well, the fountain that children happily splashed and played with each other as well, it’s all destroyed. I who saw that, forgot about, ‘Whenever it might be, you have to be calm and make judgements’, that Okaa-sama has always said.

“HaaAAA!”

I took aim at the nearest orc and slashed my sword down at it.

“BuuOOOOー”

I cut down and killed the orc before it even realized it. This is the first time I’ve killed a living thing but, there’s no leisure to think about that now. At any rate, I have to reduce their numbers and let the residents escape!

“Look over here! You orcs!”

I shout with a loud voice and, I was able to draw the attention of all the nearby orcs.

Then, one by one I cut down the orcs that are nearby. I cut them down while taking care to not get surrounded. But no matter how I cut, I can’t feel their numbers decreasing.

“Kuu!”

An orc swung a club downwards from the back. I, dodge the orc’s club narrowly. But their numbers are too many, my stamina won’t last like this. While I thought about that, an orc that’s a size bigger came from within. It’s wearing a splendid armour as compared to the other orcs, holding a fairly gigantic sword.

“This is an Orc General……”

My body wouldn’t move from having seen an Orc General for the first time. The intimidating air it carries that is incomparable to the other orcs. The moment I thought ‘it’s bad if this goes on’, the Orc General has slashed its sword down.

“b.u.mOOOOー!”

I have my body enhancement to the maximum and was able to somehow receive the blow with my sword but, the compensation for that was great. My sword broke from the hilt, my arm also broke and I was sent flying off.

I who crashed into the wall endure the giddiness in my head, and somehow stood up but, the Orc General is already standing before my eyes.

I have the talent of the t.i.tle「Heaven-sent Child of Swords」, I should also have worked hard. But, I was totally unable to fight against with this monster. I wonder if this is the lack of experience that Chichiue has said.

The Orc General has already swung his sword down. But, I’m barely able to stand up so, I’m not able to move.

‘This is the end’, I was about to give up and, all of a sudden, a voice can be heard.

“Don’t you give up!”

And then, that person attacked the Orc General. The Orc General somehow noticed and blocked with its sword but, it was unable to withstand it and flew off like I did just now.

And then the one who appeared was, the little brother who’s clad in lightning.
〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜Lei side〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜
Fuu~ that was dangerous~! Aerith would’ve died had I been a tad bit later.

“Are you alright, Aneue?”

“……”

Nn? There’s no response. Are her injuries serious? I can tell she broke her arm though.

“Aneue! Are you alright!? Please answer me!”

“W……h……y……”

“Ee?”

“Why did you come here!”

Oops! She got mad at me.

“You, isn’t your strength around the level where you always lose to me in the mock battles! Even so, why did you come here! Even I was unable to fight against the Orc General……It’s not an opponent you can fight against!”

“No, I just sent it flying didn’t I?”

“Isn’t something like that just a fluke from the unexpected hit! Now, escape while it’s still down! Then, Otou-sama, Eris-sama, Okaa-sama, whoever it is, just call them!”

“Aneue, what are you planning to do?”

“I’ll be here, drawing its attention. Even if I’m wounded, I can do something like that”

Haa~ I somehow got extremely irritated. Really, this Nee-san is. That’s why I

“That’s why, Lei quic, oeuch! Lehi, oecuh!”

I pinch both her cheeks with all my strength.

“Really, don’t say something stupid. There’s no way I can leave my precious sister and escape by myself! Keep quiet and watch from over there!”

When I say that, Aerith started crying.

“But, even I, hikku¹, couldn’t do anything. There’s no way I can leave it to the little brother who’s weaker than me”

“You’re shouldering too much by yourself. If you can’t do it by yourself, then isn’t it fine if you just work together. Well, be quiet over there this time though”

“But!”

“No buts. Haa~ should I go at it seriously. If I do this, my body wouldn’t be able to move, my magic power also gets consumed in one go so I don’t like it~”

“Lei? What exactly are you saying……”

“Please look, Aneue. This is my true fighting style”

Saying that, I activate my magic.

“Body Enhancement Maximum activate. Lightning Enchant Body Endowment twice-fold activate and Weapon Endowment twice-fold activate. Speed Enchant twice-fold activate. Alright, this is about it”

“Wh, what’s that. Can’t you only use magic one at a time fundamentally”

“You’ve forgotten huh, Aneue. In my t.i.tle, there’s 「Genius Magician」. That’s why I can activate multiple magic simultaneously”

That’s right, the technique I’ve come up with is endowing elements to the body’s ability and weapon, overlapping endowment magic. I verify what my status becomes after doing this and, Initial value× endowed magic’s value× number of endowed magic= the strengthened value! Though this is the limit for my current magic power, I’ll be able to fight against it somehow if I have this.

While I was doing this, the Orc General got up. Even though I sent it flying with a strengthened spear. It’s quite st.u.r.dy.

“Aneue, step back”

Saying that, I charge at the Orc General.

The Orc General was unable to follow my enhanced speed and, its body got covered in blood within next moment. But perhaps because its defence is high, it wasn’t a decisive blow. If I use that technique, as I thought, my body will be unable to move. What should I do……

“b.u.mOOOOー!”

While I was thinking about that, the Orc General let out a loud roar. After it did that, the surrounding orcs gathered up. This is bad. It’s planning to surround and then kill me when I’m not able to move.

When I look at Aneue, she’s making an extremely uneasy face. Haa, I don’t want to see such a face. It can’t be helped, shall I prepare myself.

And then, I unleashed a magic power that surpa.s.ses the previous.

“Lightning Magic Lightning Vortex Weapon Endowment!”

I use my strongest magic currently, Lightning Magic Lightning Vortex and stack the endowment on my spear that has already been enhanced by my weapon endowment. Doing this will destroy the spear but, it can’t be helped. There’s no other way than this to clean up the surrounding.

And then, the endowed spear lets out a bright bluish-white light. The orcs who saw this stop moving.

“Let’s go! The strongest technique that I can unleash currently!”

And then, I mow down my spear in every direction

“HaaAAA! Takemikazuchi²!”

An outrageous thunderous roar resounds and the surrounding turns white from the bright light.

And when the light settled down, the surrounding has become black, not a single orc remain, it seems even their flesh was scorched.

“There, look! I won, didn’t I?”

I said that with a smile. And when I did, Aerith charge towards me with an amazing speed and hug me.

“Mou! Lei’s an idiot! I was worried! I was extremely worried~! UeEEEEN!”

She says that as she begun crying. This is bad, what do I do. I was troubled by Aerith crying but, I myself no longer have any magic power so I’m also barely keeping awake but……

While I was thinking about this, the soldiers came. Sensei is also amongst them. I thought about whether everything is fine outside and such but, it’s already impossible. I can’t hold it.

I who was relieved after seeing that Sensei has arrived, lost my consciousness as I was.
