Chapter 109 Strongest Sage, Sends Off

"The place is at the north forest . . . judging from this reaction, they're right by the highway . You should immediately find them simply by running there . "

"Err . . . . We will be the one attacking?"

Ruli looked surprised when she heard me .

True, even though the barrier hasn't been installed yet, the capital still has some defenses .

Waiting patiently and ambus.h.i.+ng them here is an option .

But that's too wasteful in this particular case .

"Yeah . This was recorded only around 30 minutes ago . . . It should be another 30 minutes before those demons to actually get here . The one that was caught in the magic tool wasn't the demon themselves but the magic they invoked . "

Fullpower Flight has this side effect called 『Recoil』 which disturbs mana flow after being used, so it's not well suited for any movement but escaping .

Instead of using that, they use a magic called 『Demon Road』 .

Compared to flying normally, using this magic can cut down travel time to 20% percent with no recoil .

Moreover, once someone has reached the destination, the second one onwards can move to it in less than five minutes each .

--That speed becomes its weakness if the mana gets detected in advance though .

" . . . . I understand . If Mathi-kun says so, I believe in you . "

"Me too, I believe too . So how should we go about shooting the demons down?"

Ruli and Alma said that and looked at me with faces full of determination .

Yup . Looks like the two have become quite aware of their own strength .

"I think you'll immediately notice a road made of magic once you arrive at the site . When the mana road begins to swell, that's the sign of the enemy coming . Once the flow of mana stops, a demon will come out in five seconds, just leave an arrow at the place you think it's coming and the other party will get stabbed by it on their own . "

"On their own . . . . It really sounds simple when you put it that way!"

Yup .

It really is simple after all .

As long as you get the timing right, it's harder to miss even .

"How about the arrows, what should we do about them?"

"Use the exclusive metal arrows for Alma that I taught you the other day . The augment magic is . . . You should think it yourself . "

"M-Myself!?"

"Yeah . This time there's no need for petty tricks like poison and such . Construct a magic circle that prioritizes only in power . "

Ruli and the others had always been using magic circles I made for them .

However, in an actual combat, you need to judge what's best in accordance to the progress of battle and construct the magic circle yourself .

I've been teaching her how to construct a magic circle whenever we have time .

It's time for rehearsal now .

"B-but what if I fail . . . . "

"You won't fail as long you do it exactly like I've taught you so far . Carefully confirm the procedures one by one as you construct it . "

"I-I understand!"

As a matter of fact, there should be no problem at all even if the augment has no effect in this case .

It's a matter of utmost importance to ensure the safety of the path when you use 『Demon Road』 .

If they neglect to ensure the safety and get attacked in the middle of moving, even a thrown stone will be fatal for demons .

That's why, this is the perfect rehearsal .

We have to thanks those demons for expressively giving us the chance to hold a worry-free practice that won't cause any problem even if they make a mistake, complete with tension .

Thank you demons-san .

You guys' sacrifice will not be in vain .

"We'll be off then!"

"See you later!"

"Ou . Don't focus all your attention above your head, and remember to properly use Pa.s.sive Detection to avoid getting ambushed by monsters on the ground . "

I saw them off while saying that .

Now I just need to wait for the result while digging the wall .

"W-why are these people so willing to go and subjugate demons . . . . ?"

"Those two were people with common sense when they just enrolled . . . . They've been completely influenced by Mathias . . . . "

. . . . The students in the mining group were dumbfounded to see what just unfolded .

Looking at their states, it might take a while before they're aware that they've already become a force to be reckoned with already .

I'll be expecting Princ.i.p.al Edward and other instructors to work hard here .
