"I'm Nana!"

With a low roar, Nana clenched her fists and rushed over.

A punch from Nana is no joke, it's going to die!

"Disperse, everyone, don't be hit by her!"

With Nana's eyesight, it is impossible to do such smooth movements at night, so she is not Nana at all.

She was like a dexterous monkey, scurrying between us.

"Hinako, prepare for magic!"

"Huh? Magic? Was it used to attack Nana? ”

"Isn't this nonsense? Otherwise, I'll beat you! ”

"But ......"

"Don't do it, do as I say!"

If we don't stop her, we'll all be destroyed.

Smack-

Another tombstone shattered.

No, it should be smashed.

"Harina, protect Hoshino and be ready to retreat at any time."

"I see!"

"Hinako, are you ready?"

"That's it!"

"Then you're using magic! What are you waiting for? ”

"I'm sorry. Destroy the enemy in front of you, O great wind! Intermediate Wind Blast. ”

"Help my fellows, O God! Angelic blessings. ”

Hinako's magic, with my help, has been greatly amplified.

But—

It's still not enough.

The magic didn't do much damage to Nana.

Just made her clothes a little torn.

"Damn!"

"How so?"

"Hoshino, you're coming!"

Hinako's magic scroll is still too weak, so she can only look at Hoshino's.

"Understood."

"Hinako, come back quickly."

Nana came to Hinako's back at some point, and it seemed that she was preparing to sneak up on her.

"Good ......"

The moment Hinako turned around, Nana's fist was already swinging out.

Finished.

As I thought, Hinako was knocked off.

It fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string, motionless.

"Hoshino, you go on, I'll go and get Hinako back."

“…… Yes? Oh......"

It seems that they still haven't understood the current situation, but it's okay, some things should be kept secret for the time being.

I crept to the place where Hinako fell to the ground.

No breathing anymore.

For the average person, there must be no way.

But for me - not a problem at all.

"God, have mercy on the world and let her continue to live with hope! Life is immortal. ”

"Ahem—"

Hinako gasped for air.

"I thought...... I'm going to...... Dead ......"

You are indeed dead, but I have raised you.

Life Never Ends - A level 130 skill that can resurrect people who die within five minutes, but the resurrected person will temporarily fall into a weakened state. Of course, such a buggy skill can only be used once a day.

"Don't worry, with me, I won't let you die."

"Thank you...... You ......"

"Don't talk yet, you're very weak now, I'll carry you over first."

There was an icy chill in the distance.

It seems that Hoshino unleashed the magic.

I think we can take a break for a while, right?

I carried Hinako to a slightly safer place.

"You wait here, don't run around, I'll be right back."

"Don't ......"

"What did you say?"

"I said no."

"Are you going to let me abandon them?"

What kind of stupid thing is she talking about?

"But...... I'm so scared......."

Afraid? Fools can ...... too

I saw Hinako crying quietly.

That's right...... Stupid people are also girls, so it's reasonable to be scared when you encounter this kind of thing.

"Don't cry, I'll protect you."

I gently hugged Hinako and touched her head.

“…… I ......"

"Can you stand up?"

“…… Well, barely... OK. ”

"Take me by the hand, and let's go and save them together."

“…… Good. ”

Hinako gripped my hand tightly, and I could feel that she was still scared.

But it's my job to protect her.

"Let's go."

The cemetery was already unrecognizable, littered with shattered tombstones. What's even more terrifying is that the center of the graveyard has become a world of ice, and everything is frozen.

It's terrible magic, who the hell is Hoshino?

Why is it so powerful? This is long beyond the reach of newbies.

“…… It's amazing... harm..."

"Let's go find where their people are."

We are close to the heart of the "ice field".

The biting cold air forced us to cling to each other.

"Are you cold?"

"I'm not cold......"

"You're lying."

I can clearly feel Hinako's body trembling, and her condition is still too bad.

"It's okay...... Let's go......"

"Really."

I draped my coat over Hinako.

"Captain?"

"Is it a little warmer?"

"Hmm...... But aren't you cold, captain? ”

"Of course it's cold. But you need it more than I do. ”

"Then I'll give it back to you......"

"It's okay, I said I would protect you, and I will definitely protect you."

I must have been handsome just now.

“…… Thank you. ”

You're suddenly so serious, I'm a little unaccustomed to it.

And if you look at it this way, Hinako is still quite cute, and it would be nice if she was like this in normal times.

Without my coat, I had to shrink my body and move forward.

"Ahh

It's too cold.

I kept sneezing.

"Are you alright, Captain?"

"It's okay, I'm fine."

But I can feel that I'm in terrible physical condition right now.

If you keep moving forward, there will definitely be danger.

But—

I can't abandon my partner!

My conviction triumphed over my cowardice.

"Look, they're there!"

"Really?"

Three ice sculptures did appear in front of us.

It should be Nana, Haruna, and Hoshino.

"They're all frozen."

"Let's get them out."

"Hmm."

I walked up to the three statues.

"Almighty God, I beg you to relieve their suffering! Advanced purification. ”

"Whew-"

"Saved."

“……”

Three people escaped from the ice.

Ah, I accidentally released Nana too.

"Captain, how did you get her out too?"

Hinako took my hand and whispered.

"I forgot ......"

"Harina-chan, Nao-chan, come here."

"Okay."

The two of us immediately stood in the same line with us.

The scene changed to the four of us against Nana.

"Are you ready?"

"Hmm!"

"Three, two, one! Run! ”

Thirty-six plans - go for the upper plan.

"Suzuki-san?"

Nana's voice made me stop running out.

"Captain?"

"Suzuki?"

The three of them looked at me from a distance, puzzled, as I stopped.

"Wait, Nana seems to have recovered."

"Really?"

"Are you sure?"

"I don't know. Anyway, I'm going to talk to her first. ”
