Chapter 94: Bang!

Chapter 94 Bang!

Now that the three of them have decided on their strategy, it seems that the enemies are ready to intercept. The groaning lions and the towering stone giant, symmetrically maintaining its silence, are glaring at the girls.

「Then, let's go with a bang!」

「Aye, desuwa!」

「A-Aye...?」

Haru switches gear and goes into battle mode. She takes out the stone fragment, which she had just collected, from the pouch and throws it as if it's natural. At the same time, Chinatsu's Glitter Lance also appears in the air and is vigorously thrown into the flock of lions.

「Grrr...」

「Groar!」

The magic of the two hit the enemies at the front on the left and right, and both succeeded in damaging their heads. However, they are not knocked out.

「They are harder than I thought. The golems we met along the way would have been crushed by one blow from Haru.」

「They have evolved one step further, right? Look, you can see crests here and there on the body.」

「Hm? Oh, really? You have good eyesight, Nell.」

「Deris, are you sure your eyesight hasn't dropped? Well, if they are strengthened individuals, one of them is stronger than the previous griffon.」

「That's right, I hope they are about level 5. That way, it will be a good fight.」

Still, if it's like that, this dungeon might be a pretty good place to train. It's rare to find such strong monsters in the vicinity, and it's not too far from the home. Until the graduation festival of the academy, I feel that staying in the city of Genius is not bad.

「Let's see, it may be as strong as an executive of the Frontier Demon King Army.」

「Gobu? Gobu gobu?」

「Yep, there's something like that, you know~? There are those who fuss over the title, imitating the Great Eight Demons and calling themselves the Four Heavenly Kings or something like that. You see, something like that is mostly not a big deal. Well, it's good for evaluation standard, though.」

「Gobuu.」

「Eh, even though he's one of the Great Eight Demons, there was someone like that among his subordinates? That's funny.」

...... Next time, let's seriously make a magic item that can analyze Gobuo's words. It's kind of complicated that only me who can't keep up with the conversation with Gobuo at home.

Well, the time for strength analysis is over. With the damaged golems in the lead, they rushed at the girls in groups. I think it will be difficult for Therese to take them all. At least, I want the girls to defeat some of them first.

「Chinatsu-chan, I'm going to the front for a bit.」

「Eh? Wait, Haruna!?」

This time, Haru jumped forward with a black staff in her hand. Naturally, the target of the lions is concentrated on Haru and she's being targeted from the left and right.

「Groaaar!」

「Hmph!」

Haru, who evaded the sharp claws from the right and the strong fangs from the left at the last minute, hit the black staff into the cracked wound of one golem. Then, the golem flinched while making the sound of crumbling stone. However, it was not enough to defeat it. Being still alive even after directly receiving that attack from Haru, it's really sturdy, huh. I'm impressed.

Faster than the third golem that followed, the one that didn't get hit back tries to unleash another attack on Haru. It's in a position where it passed Haru once and then turned around. It can launch a surprise attack on Haru since she's facing at the front, but it's exposing its behind to Chinatsu.

「Gruo!?」

Receiving a surprise attack from the Glitter Lance on its back of the head, its head is pushed by the spear of light and its face is slammed against the ground. It's still alive, but there's no doubt that it received a great damage.

「Nice assist!」

Shouting so, Haru grabbed the golem, which she knocked down with the black staff, with one hand and―― she threw it. She threw it with one hand. What's that? Is shoulder throw something you can do with one hand? Ah, maybe the Boulder Throwing Skill is affecting it? No, should I think that throwing in that sense is also within the scope of skill application? Hmm, it's a new fact that becomes clear.

The golem that was thrown away with great momentum goes towards the golem that was staggered by Chinatsu's surprise attack.

「「Gobba!」」

The damaged heads hit each other. Leaving a strange cry, the heads of the two golems burst and they stopped functioning. It took some time, but they finally defeated two.

「With this, there are 8 lions left. They need to hit the same place with three moves to defeat it, huh.」

「It's hard for Haruna, who's too far out in front, to do it alone. With the speed of Therese, she won't be able to make it in time. Also, if Haruna doesn't come back, she won't be able to take advantage of the position. Ara?」

Nell reacted to something. When I looked at Haru, she already put the black staff into her pouch before I realized it. Instead, she's holding stones in her hands.

「Therese-san, I will go with a bang!」

「Bang? Oh, a bang! I understand desuwa! Come at me anytime!」

「Chinatsu-chan, I leave the finishing blow to you!」

「It seems that you are going to do something reckless... Holy Enchantment!」

Oi oi, can you communicate like that? I don't know what they are going to do, but it seems that the operation called 『Bang』 has started. Chinatsu is putting light on her katana to strengthen it.

「I see, it couldn't be more obvious. You girls sure came up with something good...!」

And there was another person here who understood the content of the strategy. This is why instinctive people are...!

「First is, this!」

Haru throws the stone, throws, throws―― there are eight of them. The stones, which have the same number as the lions, are heading to each of their targets. All of the stones are flying toward the heads. Straight balls for those who run at the front and curveballs for those who are hidden in the shadow. Then, the balls collided with great force and pierced each of them.

「Diese!」

Black smoke gushed out from the stones as if they had been planted in all of them. This smoke, which is originally only a smokescreen, cannot be avoided if it is generated in front of their eyes. The stones were pierced so deeply that no matter how hard they tried to run or shake their heads, the stones would never come off. In short, the enemies have lost their sight.

「Therese-san!」

「Bring it on, desuwa!」

Without a moment's delay, Haru rushes to the golem in the lead, which was rampaging like a rampaging bull, and grabs it with her small hand. With the way she's grabbing it, I'm convinced that it won't come off. Also, I finally understand what they are trying to do.

「Going straight with full power!」

「Gruo!?」

The poor golem was thrown. Is that a baseball pitching? Or is that a kind of judo throwing technique? Well, either way, the golem was thrown. The place where it was thrown is Therese's large shield.

「Come to me!」

――Goon!

It's a tragic situation where the stone pierced deeper after the head collided with the strong shield. I'm not sure if golems have a sense of pain, but this is painful. It hurts visually. Therese, who specializes in defense, was able to withstand this throwing and still had a composed expression on her face. The golem is miraculously still alive, and even though it's just a stone, it's trembling skilfully.

「I see. The pitcher, the catcher, and finally the batter, huh.」

The golem, which fell to the ground as if it slipped off the shield, is beheaded by Chinatsu's light katana. The golem that stopped moving can't even recognize it and just accepts it. Thanks to the 『Holy Enchantment』 that increased the attack power in addition to giving light attributes, Chinatsu's katana easily sliced through the golem.

After that, Haru threw the golem that had lost its sight, Therese caught it, and Chinatsu finished it off. With this composition, the lions were annihilated in a short time. All that was left was the big boss.
