It took us a few minutes to get to the place where the explosion sounded.

The ground was littered with magically blasted potholes.

It should be Hinako's magic scroll, right?

But it's not going to be that powerful.

"Hina Child! Are you there? ”

I shouted Hinako's name loudly in place, but no one answered me.

Where did they go?

Obviously, the explosion was not long after.

Where can they go in such a short period of time?

Could it be ......

"Hurry up, they might be in danger."

Damn, I still can't see their shadows.

It's impossible to disappear, right......

"Hey, skeleton monsters, can you feel them?"

"What a faux pas, my name is Bruce!"

"That'...... Bruce, where are they? ”

"It's Bruz, it's not Bruce!"

Bruz seems to care about his name, but I don't think I'm mistaken.

"Bruce, can you hurry up? I don't have time to joke with you right now! ”

"You, you, you...... They should be in front of me, and I can feel a few faint breaths in front of them. ”

"Okay."

Hinako, Hoshino, Harina, wait for me, I'll come to save you right away.

- Boom, boom.

Not far ahead, there was another violent explosion of magic.

"Wowhaha! My magic is so strong, look how I blew you up today! ”

It is Hinako's voice.

That's right, they're just ahead.

Thankfully, they haven't had an accident.

"Hinako, you're rushing too far ahead."

"No problem, I still have a lot of scrolls. Enough to send it to heaven. ”

"Harina, be ready to pick her up at any time."

"Yes!"

- Boom, boom.

Hinako, this guy is messing around again.

Doesn't it matter what the wounds on her body are?

The flame of magic was getting closer, and the three of them and one of them could be faintly seen.

"Hinako!"

"Huh? Captain? Wait, I'm busy right now. ”

She pulled out a few more scrolls from her bag, and with the appearance of white light, magic roared out again.

The magic struck straight at the enemy not far away, another Bruz.

"Captain, do you see that? My magic has suddenly become so strong, isn't it handsome? ”

"Are you alright?"

"Body? …… Oh - you said you just got hurt? It's been okay for a long time, but now I feel like I have endless power! ”

"Huh? What stupid thing are you talking about? ”

You're not a magician, how can you think there's any power in your body!

Could it be that the hidden power in the body has awakened?

Or is she actually hiding her power and now unleashing her true power?

I seem to have read too many light novels......

How can you say that this kind of thing can't happen to such a stupid person, right?

"Bruce, do you know what's going on?"

"That...... It seems like it's my sake......"

"For your sake?"

"My ability is to amplify the magic power of others, but there is a drawback."

"What's the downside?"

"Anyone within a 100-meter radius will be affected......"

The ability to do good chicken ribs.

Can help teammates and also help enemies......

It's another useless guy, and the identification is complete.

“…… Is it because of you that Nanako was able to release such a powerful magic? ”

"Are you talking about the girl with the scroll?"

"Hmm."

"From what I can see, she's- she can't do magic, right?"

"Hmm...... Is there a chance that the learning will succeed? ”

“…… No, she would never have been a magician in her lifetime. However, I feel that she should be a great businessman. ”

"Ahaha......"

I had a little hope for her, but it didn't disappoint me.

Why don't you find a chance to drive her back into business?

"Captain, did you see that? This monster is suppressed by me! ”

Hinako happily waved at me.

The other Bruce was indeed temporarily suppressed by her, but instead of being destroyed, it felt as if it wasn't hurt.

"Don't attack yet, I have something to say to that skeleton."

"Captain, is your head broken? How can skeletons speak? ”

I don't want to be said by someone with a broken head like you.

"Don't talk nonsense, stop when you stop!"

"Oh! I see, you're not the captain! Hmph, trying to lie to me? You're still a little tender. Say! Who are you? ”

This guy is handsome and pointing his finger at me.

I'm really convinced of this idiot, how the hell did you think of that?

"Silence."

He didn't hesitate to use the magic of silence on her.

Now, it's done.

She wouldn't have been able to chant the magic scroll without a voice, and certainly wouldn't have disturbed me and the other Bruce...... Zi talked. The world is quiet.

Ignoring Hinako's silent teeth and claws, I came to it.

Before I got close to it, I could smell the scorching smell on it, so it must have been magic that burned its clothes, right?

"Hey, can you hear me?"

I shook my hand in front of it.

"You... Be... Who... Kill...... Kill! ”

"Calm down, me. She's here to help us. ”

"Help...? …… Help?! Kill... Kill... Kill! ”

"Was it blown up? I can't even speak. ”

Its voice was very indistinct, and it could only vaguely hear a few words, and the word "kill" was heard the most. Is it really okay not to take the opportunity to kill it......

"It's been hit hard and needs a little rest to recover."

"Are you sure it won't do anything to us when it recovers?"

"Hmm...... Probably ......"

"What do you mean? Sure enough, let's send it directly to heaven. ”

"Wait, wait, I promise not! So don't kill it. ”

Bruz was so frightened by me.

"Really?"

"Really! It's true! ”

Trust him for once.

"Hoshino, Harina, are you all right?"

"I'm fine."

"I'm fine."

"How did you come across this skeleton?"

I had only been away from them for a while, and they were gone.

"We saw your figure disappear suddenly, so we wanted to come to you, but somehow we came across this skeleton. Hinako used magic to cover our retreat to this place. ”

"Suddenly gone?"

"Well, it disappeared suddenly."

It's weird, I haven't gone any further, how could I have disappeared from their field of vision?

"I've wanted to ask just now, what's going on with this skeleton next to you?"

"Hello, I'm Bruce."

"The skeleton is actually talking?!"

Apparently, they were surprised that Bruz was able to speak.

"Don't be afraid, he's not a bad guy, and we'll have to rely on him to deal with that skeleton later.
