-Swish!

“Ugh!”

Alex barely avoided the blades of wind that flew at her from three different directions.

-Dhum!

Miss Rin blocked the attack of the wind sphere with a shield that she got from Alex, but that threw her away.

The impact almost made her lose her footing. But she somehow managed to stay still and block another attack.

-Oooooooong!

Sera had already exhausted all her Mana so Elio ordered her to go inside the barrier with Misha and Miu.

She was not doing well, and she was over exerting herself.

He could not see her like that anymore, but she could not leave her master in this situation.

The opponent they were facing was too strong.

The magic that he was using was not something they could block with steel weapons and their low grade magic.

She stayed behind, and looked out for an opportunity where she could use what she had right now.

“Muuuuu!”

Az was somehow effective, but even the little slime had its limits.

The Mana volume that it had as a low level creature was low. So, the spells that it can cast were very limited.

But, since these spells were at least effective, they were able to use them strategically.

[{ “Elio! Give me a speed boost!” }]

[{ “I cannot! Wind spells aren’t working! I can’t use any wind spells!” }]

[{ “Focus on the winds! You don’t have to use the winds that are present in the surroundings! Create your own winds!” }]

Az was reaching its limits.

They brought Miss Rin along with them thinking she would be helpful in most situations, but none of them had expected they would have to fight the mage tower master right after they left the town!

-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiish!

The bastard wanted all their people now!

He was using powerful spells!

There was a whirlwind covering him that had winds so sharp just a touch of them felt like it was a deep cut from some sword!

Just the touch of the strong winds ripped open their bare skin, it destroyed the normal clothes that they were wearing, and if it wasn’t for the protective spells from the magic scrolls that they had used, they would not even be wearing any gears anymore.

“Kugh!”

“Miss Rin!”

She was hit with another wind sphere, but this time, when the sphere of winds collided with the shield, it broke down and became sharp blades of winds that exploded and cut her at multiple points!

“Don’t worry about me!”

She had her holy powers, so she was healing herself while also buffing herself with it.

She was not a mage, so she could not use magic or use the power to buff the others of her party, but she could heal others if needed.

But, that took a lot more energy than healing herself, so Elio was handling the task of healing as well.

-Boooooooooom!

Alex was doing something. He could feel it.

She was not just swinging her sword around getting beaten by the strong magic winds of the tower master.

She knew they were not nearly strong enough to defeat this opponent even though there were four more helping her.

“Damnit.”

Alex was bleeding from multiple wounds now, but since they cannot stop for the healing like they were able to until a moment ago, he could only helplessly watch her go against the damned mage.

-Swiiiiiiish~!

The opponent was strong, almost a hundred levels higher than the two of them.

And, even though Miss Rin was also above (Level-100) she was not as strong as a mage that knew his craft.

She used to be a soldier, she knew how to kill, but that was limited to those who used weapons and swords.

She had almost never fought a mage, so she knew nothing of how to deal with them.

They were different from normal humans, the power to use Mana was something that gave them strength incomparable to normal humans.

And, the holy power surely also made one a superhuman, but that was not enough.

Against a mage covered in a protective barrier, getting past him and dealing any kind of damage was not simple.

-Clank! Clank! Clank!

She used the enchanted weapons of Alex that somehow went past the winds, but the mage was still powerful.

They were not getting many openings.

Most of the damage being done to the shield or the mage himself came from Alex who systematically swung her sword and exploited all the opening the mage was unconsciously creating.

He was strong, but she had experience dealing with strong opponents.

-Swish! Swish! Swish!

Even in the face of absolute power, she did not feel any despair or helplessness like Elio did at the moment.

He was not just a mage, yet he was supporting her like those rankers supported their party members.

He was just as weak as hers, yet while she had years of prior experience, he was just a new player starting his journey in this world.

He had not seen dragons, he had not fought demons and angels. He was still doing well matching up to them, yet he was feeling helpless right now.

But she did not have any time to lecture him right now.

“Huuuuu…”

She has been doing something since a while back.

And now, she had almost created the opening she had been searching for.

{Blink}

She created some distance from the mage, and just then, the mage knew she was going to appear from the left while trying to misdirect him.

She had played the same game a few times now, but it was not going to work.

“Fool!”

-Ooooooooooong!

He had received some wounds, but he also had some potions so healing these things was no big deal to him.

He knew this ‘savior’ of Moongold would be a formidable opponent and she would grow up to be someone dangerous as well, but he could do little about a near immortal foreigner so, he was not after the two.

He just wanted to deal with the rest of them and go back, and now that she was walking right into-.

“Old habits don’t die easily, they say.”

Instead of appearing on his left, or right even, she reappeared right in front of him, and, there was a strange crimson sword in her hands this time.

-Swish…

-Click.

The way she moved in that simple instance was so fast that even the mage did not perceive her.

But when he looked down after hearing that distinct clicking sound of a sword being put back into a metallic sheath, he found himself momentarily powerless.

[{ “El, Miss Rin.” }]

A strange crimson slash was present on his body, but it did not hurt.

It was simply a dark red slash of blade, something strange, but at the same time, something that seemed to be sucking in all the Mana in him to momentarily make him useless.

He could not use his magic, the winds were gone, the atmosphere around them had returned to normal, and this was the last chance they were going to have.

-Thud.

[{ “Pour… everything you have…” }]

She fell to the ground, the sword vanished from her hands, the white sword hanging around her body started glowing with an abnormal white light, and… this was their chance.

“What did you do to me?!!”

-Oooooooooong!

She gave them the one moment that they needed.

Miss Rin or Elio were not going to waste it…
