Chapter 195 Best Companions

Part 1

Outside the window. Term Apokris let out a small sight at the storm that hadn’t passed by even after a whole day.

“…… To think the differences in our power were so large……” (Term)

The storm was clearly unusual. The winds were light and the rainfall wasn’t that heavy, but only the darkness wouldn’t lift.

It is quite difficult to continuously use Magic. Term was a Water Magic expert.

His Alias of 《Still Water (Shisui)》 comes from the fact that he completely blocked a huge waterfall with his Magic. But, even for him, the true nature of the storm that had developed outside could not be determined.

This is the third time he had been shown the difference in their talent. Moreover, this time it was with someone much younger man than himself.

Term nostalgically stroked the bracelets Relic on his arms, the 『Blessing of the Water God』 a Relic he had once been fortunate enough to acquire in the Level 6 Treasure Shrine, 【Refuge of the Water God】.

The Relic gives the wearer a strong water attribute blessing. If he sells it to the right people, he can certainly live off of it for at least three generations.

The power of Term Apokris is much stronger now than it was twenty years ago when he blocked the waterfall. But even so, he cannot see through the technique that has been deployed.

No, not only this, he also couldn’t understand the Magic that turns people into frogs. It is true that it wasn’t his area of expertise, but the strangest thing was that the user who did it, didn’t show any signs of activating his Magic at all.

Term also prided himself on his Magic activation speed, but his speed and concealment abilities were probably much more overwhelming than Term’s.

“After Rose and the 《Master Magus (Dai Kenja)》, here’s the third one heh.” (Term)

Term Apokris, who is currently the strongest Water Magic-user in the Imperial Capital, once had two rivals.

No, if he had to be more precise, he 『Thought』 that they were his rival.

To a non-talented Magi, they might have looked the same.

However, they were both undeniably gifted, and even in Term’s eyes, they were a cut above him. Since Term was also talented, their disparity between him was also more apparent.

One of them wanted to be a Hunter like Term, and improved her power to become the most powerful Fire Magi, that was 《Abyssal Fire of Destruction (Shin En Kametsu)》, while the other stayed in an academic institution to further its research, and was banished after looking into the abyss of Magic.

Term doesn’t think that it is tragic. For those who seek power, the boundaries of the law are far too narrow.

However, it is ironic that Rosemary Puropos, the one who was the most fierce and feared since that time, still reigns in human society without breaking the law.

The reason why Term was able to gain so much power was because he used all the means at his disposal and became a member of the 『Nine-Tail Shadow Fox (Kyubi no Kage Kitsune)』. And the reason why 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 is so powerful is probably because he has crossed that line as well.

However, to think I don’t even feel jealous about him…… I’m getting old, aren’t I? With such sentimentality, Term inadvertently smiled bitterly and regained his composure.

There was also Kechakchakka and Kilknight with me, so there isn’t one percent chance that the raid will fail, but you can never be too careful.

Although the Zero Knight Order has a certain level of skill, they are no match for Term, who can deploy his magic at an overwhelming speed.

He can sneak quietly and kill only his target with certainty. Moreover, Term’s techniques are not always obvious at first glance. It won’t be difficult to make it look like an accident caused by the storm. It was unexpected that none of the guards had left so far, but this was just a margin of error.

But, however, there is a possibility that he had powerful escorts waiting in ambush. The fact that a chief executive came directly to us and included Term and the others in the escort was surely a sign of his expectation for Term. And at the same time, it shows the importance of this mission.

He had set everything up so far. I will make sure to kill him.

The Thirteenth Ranked said that he would leave the timing to Term.

Now is the perfect time to strike, and there is no better time than now.

“Let’s go, Kecha. Did you 『Prepare』 everything?” (Term)

“Hihihi……” (Kechakchakka)

When I went to Kechakchakka’s room, Kechakchakka showed me a jewel wrapped in black cloth from her pocket.

The expression on her face was as usual, and I don’t know what she was thinking, but her eyes were shining quietly. It seems that she is quite tired from being teased by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》, but at this rate, there will be no problem.

The jewel, the 『Proof of Immortal Dragon』, is a rarer Relic than Term’s bracelet. There is no substitute for its power, and it is in times like these that it comes in handy.

This airship is not something that would easily fall if attacked by a Dragon, but if the ship actually fell and there is proof of a Dragon attack, then everyone would be convinced of that fact.

And then Term noticed the strange object that Kechakchakka had taken up as well.

“…… Hm, what is that?” (Term)

“………… Uke…… Ukekeke.” (Kechakchakka)

It was a box with a lever and some small buttons on it. It looks like a controller of some kind.

Kechakchakka very carefully tucked it into her pocket and let out an incomprehensible laugh, as usual. I inadvertently sigh.

It’s no secret that there are a lot of eccentric “Magi (Mado-shi)”, but among them, the “Shamans (Jujutsu-shi)”, Magi who transform emotions into power, are especially eccentric.

She is loyal and shows results. Term can’t complain because she is talented, but――Term gave up on communicating with her and indicated outside with his chin.

“First, the engine room. We will start as soon as possible. This is our job. We can’t make 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 do something like that.” (Term)

It is raining right now. When there is an abundance of water available, 《Still Water (Shisui)》 is invincible.

Let’s show to the Thirteenth Ranked, to 《Abyssal Fire of Destruction (Shin En Kametsu)》 and the world, the power I have.

§

At one corner of the ship.

I was summoned to a large room that looked like a party space, where the Emperor, his estimated daughter, and a number of his knights guarding him were all present. I could see the swirling black sky, from the large window, which was probably designed to let in a lot of light. I didn’t think much of it when I was looking from the small window in my room, but looking at it like this, it was like the end of the world.

“We are in contact with the ground via Symphonic Stones, but it doesn’t seem to be raining on the ground.” (Franz)

“I see, I see……” (Cry)

For some reason, all eyes were focused on me. His Majesty the Emperor was also looking at me, and Her Imperial Princess was also looking at me while giving me an anxious look.

I listened to what Franz-san said and nodded accordingly. But my head was empty.

Even if you tell me that we can’t get out of the storm, there is nothing I can do about it. If it was something I can figure out by thinking about it, Franz-san and the others would have probably figured it out too.
