Chapter 248 - Episode Forty-Five - The Collector (16)

The collector unleashes a huge swing with his left large sword.

He gently evaded Lapides sword by pressing the handle of the large sword on the right and repelling it, and then stabbing with the large sword on the left.

The Lapides Sword retreated significantly.

“The Lapides Sword is beginning to be overwhelmed ……?”

“The speed and power of that weapon are certainly the best I’ve ever seen against my enemy …… but it’s too monotonous! That may have been enough until now!”

It is true that the attack pattern of the Lapides Sword does not include any movement that takes into account the next few moves.

It was originally designed to be a throwing and slas.h.i.+ng weapon, with the rest being an added bonus.

It was not a weapon that was designed for slas.h.i.+ng.

I read up on swordsmans.h.i.+p and incorporated it into my responses, but I’m not a swordsman.

“I’ll show you the mastery of magic and swordsmans.h.i.+p that was carved into the stone slabs I found in the ruins by the heroes of mythical times!”

The collector dropped to his haunches, raised his two large swords, and crossed them.

The two swords were covered with a high density of magic power, which emitted a purple light.

” “The Roar of the Dragon King, Bahamut”!”

The collector jumped up and drew an arc in the air with his crossed swords.

In response, the blade of the Lapides Sword shattered, and the hilt slammed into the ground.

“Wha- ……!?”

As it was, purple flames ran along with the extension of the collector’s sword strike, and the crystals on the foothold were neatly cut in two.

The shockwave with heat will take over the magic power in the sword and amplify its power, and ran across the ground.

The cut surface was charred black.

“Fuhahahahaha! It’s been a while since I’ve used it, but there doesn’t seem to be a problem at all! In fact, it’s even more brilliant! I don’t even feel the recoil as much as before! So this is the power of Amrita!”

I didn’t think that not only did it handle my speed, but that I would lose in strength.

I’ll have to improve somehow.

“Finally, impatience shows in you now too. Since you’ve been destroying my treasure so much …… Fufu, it’s nice to get a little revenge first.”

The collector drops the blades of both swords to the floor, his mouth hanging open in a smile.

“Hmm ……?”

I frowned, and the collector narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

He seems to have realized his mistake from my expression and hurriedly turns himself around.

He kicked the ground to get some distance from the Lapides Sword that was closing in on his back.

“Why!? I’m sure that I’ve broken it with my amazing skills ……! “

The blade of the Lapides Sword is disposable, and using the Lapidestatoa’s ability to create magic ore, generating it on the spot.

If the blade is broken, it can repair itself using the excess magic power.

I didn’t expect it to break, but it’s not that I hadn’t taken measures to deal with it.

“D-d.a.m.n it!”

The collector blocked the slash from the Lapides Sword with his right large sword, but was unable to catch it, and his right hand fell back significantly.

Because he was too late to notice it, and because he was in a half-hearted position to attempt to catch it, I guess he couldn’t put in as much strength as he wanted to.

The second wave of Lapides sword attacks the collector who showed a gap mercilessly.

“Guh ……”

As the collector backed away, he threw the large sword he was holding in his left hand to the ground, and hold out his hand to the Lapides Sword.

” “Gujarna Demon’s Face Stone”!”

A huge stone disc with a face painted on it appeared and blocked the Lapides Sword.

He takes the face stone which is leaning against himself with the left hand which is empty.

In addition to being an absolute defense, the “Gujarna demon’s face stone” has the terrible disadvantage of being flung away when used as a s.h.i.+eld to attack its owner, but the collector avoided this by holding it by hand.

It was a quick move.

Maybe he had been traumatized by being crushed once.

The collector waved his hand to erase the “Gujarna Demon’s Face Stone” and brought back one half of the large sword he had thrown away.

He quickly kicked the ground, distanced himself from the Lapides Sword, and readied his two large swords.

“…… Are you just going to watch.”

The collector glared at me.

“No, I’m going to start attacking now.”

If I do a half-hearted damage, the collector will waste his treasure and revive.

It’s not a problem in a battle because I can just crush him until it runs out, but it’s too much of a waste.

I was thinking about what I should do.

Altamir had prepared such a place for us.

The best thing to do would be to hit the collector with one big shot and get him to give up.

The collector twitched his shoulders in response to my declaration.

Then he lets out a sigh of exasperation and relaxes his arm muscles slightly.

“I’m glad you’re finally getting serious about this. But you said that so lightly. I’ve been wondering why I could barely see your aura, but now I understand why it’s so late.”

Aura ……?

Oh, I believe that was the first thing the collector mentioned.

I stopped the Lapides Sword to see what he was going to say, but the collector didn’t say anything more about auras.

“It won’t be easy to even get close to you if I keep fighting like this. I thought it would be boring to win with something like this, but …… I’ll let go of my obsession.”

The collector raises his right hand to the ceiling.

Behind the collector, a two-meter-long figure appears.

In the frame of the mirror is carved a winged woman with closed eyes and a peaceful expression, reminiscent of a G.o.ddess.

“That is ……”

” “Angell’s Magic Mirror” …… You’ve heard of it even if its name only, haven’t you?”

“Angell’s Magic Mirror”, I know because I’ve read it in a book.

It is a famous story.

But I thought it had been destroyed in a war a long time ago.

I had no idea that it was still in existence and in the hands of collectors.

“This weapon is the negative legacy of the wise man Angel, who risked his life to destroy it, only to have it misused in the war. A hundred years ago …… for whatever reason, it ended up in the hands of Elisabella, the foolish queen of a small country. Elisabella was nothing more than a vicious old hag with no magical talent whatsoever, but …… she ruled the country with the power of this magical tool even though she was hated by all the people including her va.s.sals.”

And from that princess, Elizabella, the collectors took it by force, is what it means.

If the story is true, she was quite a tyrant, and I don’t think it’s a bad thing.

“Reveal yourself, False Soldier of Dreams!”

The collector shouted, and a pale, translucent figure of a swordsman in armor appeared.

He was not alone. There were so many of them that they covered the world in the mirror.

At the same time, I recognized this, the surroundings of the collector were filled with the same translucent armor swordsmen as in the mirror.

The “Angell’s Magic Mirror” — is a magic tool that creates an infinite number of soldiers whose strength is proportional to the owner’s magic power.

I don’t know how much magical power Elisabella had, but from the way the collector talked about her, she didn’t seem to be a very good magician.

Nevertheless, even Elizabella had gained the power to continue to rule a country.

If the collector who defeated Elizabella and took the mirror could handle it, it would be even more powerful.

It is said that the dream soldiers cannot exist within a radius of more than 1,000 meters from the mirror, but this is meaningless now that they are fighting on a crystal block with a limited range.

“Come on, let’s end this now, Abel!”

The collector points his sword at me.

The blue s.h.i.+ning dream soldiers rush towards me in unison, swords at the ready.
