Chapter 21: Extra-subspace magic, bull-headed tyrant
Esther took the lead, following her own perception, and approached the area step by step, the surrounding area was completely dark, obscuring most of their vision, and only the magic power, like a torch in the darkness, guided them in the direction.
In the distance, there was already a roar of the beast, and it was the fleeing beast slowly returning.
It didn't take long for their vision to suddenly widen, it was a clearing, no, to be exact, an area of destroyed vegetation.
That's where the magic comes from.
But, now, that magic has disappeared without a trace.
As their gaze looked into the clearing, Esther visibly felt Wendy's body tense up, clasping his arms in both hands.
In the middle of the empty area, there was a figure about Esther's height, and he stood there, his back to them, motionless.
Esther's expression became more and more calm, adjusting his pace, slowly approaching the other party, and when he got close to a certain distance, Esther found that this person had the same short dark blue hair as Wendy, but from the back, it was a boy.
The slight mana fluctuated from the other party's body, which was exactly the same as the magic just now, but the degree was at most similar to Esther's magic.
Stopping, Esther's magic was already working in her body, Larulas floating in the air, and beneath the hair of the Cutty dog, the power of fire flowed.
"Who are you?" Esther asked in a deep voice.
The man seemed to hear Esther's question, too, and turned slowly, accompanied by a flash of lightning.
The light of thunder and lightning allowed them to see the appearance of the boy clearly.
At that moment, Esther was stunned, Wendy's body was completely stiff, and her emotions changed from sluggishness to shock and surprise.
It was a teenager about Esther's age, slightly thinner than him, and carrying several scepter-like things on his back.
The most frightening thing is that the young man's face, which should have been very handsome, has a hideous tattoo on the right half that extends from the eye socket to the chin, like the closed eyes of a demon.
If it's in the daytime, it's fine, but at night, it's particularly scary.
However, it was also Larulas who was slightly frightened.
"Brother Gerald!" Wendy spoke suddenly.
The man looked up with some difficulty, "Warm...... Wen ......"
Bang~
The other party tried to call Wendy's name, but before he could do so, he fell to the ground and did not move.
"Brother Gerald!" Wendy exclaimed, and then broke away from Esther and ran towards Gerald.
Esther was also relieved.
Gerald, his full name is Esther, he only remembers that the Gerald in front of him is not this world but Gerald, but Gerald from a parallel world.
Wendy's hand emitted a soft glow, sticking to Gerald's back, and slowly, the pain on Gerald's face slowly eased.
"Wendy, take him away first, it's getting unsafe here!" Esther said, the roars of the beasts around them getting closer, presumably sensing their surroundings slowly calming down and beginning to return to their own lair.
Wendy nodded, and Esther picked Gerald on his back, and the group quickly left the place.
……
The next day, the warm sun shone from the sky, bringing a ray of light to the dim forest.
"Uh~" The sleeping boy let out a sound, and Wendy, who was guarding beside him, stared wide.
The boy slowly opened his eyes, "Where am I?" ”
"Ah, Brother Gerald, you're finally awake!" Wendy said happily.
"Wendy~"
Hearing the familiar voice, Gerald was also stunned, and saw the slightly open little face, "I thought it was a hallucination before the coma, but I didn't expect it to be Wendy!" Was it Wendy you saved me? ”
Gerald's smile was also very gentle.
"No, it was Brother Esther who saved you!" My Wendy said cutely.
Hearing Wendy say this, Gerald realizes that there is a second person in the cave.
Esther saw the other party looking over, and a smile bloomed on his face, "Esther Renault, the 'Fairy Tail' Guild Wizard!" ”
"'Fairy Tail'?!" Gerald's expression changed slightly, after living here for so long, he naturally knew the 'Fairy Tail'.
"Thank you for saving me!" Gerald spoke, "My name is Gerald!" ”
"You don't have to thank me, I just carried you from that place here, Wendy, who really saved you!" Esther glanced at Wendy, "This kid has been by your side since he found you, using magic to heal you!" ”
Gerald glanced at Wendy with a soft gaze, "Excuse me, Wendy!" ”
Wendy smiled sheepishly.
Wendy Mabel, Sky Dragon Slayer.
The Dragon Slayer Magic's "Dragon Slaying Magic" is the oldest combat magic, and it is a magic born for battle, but Wendy's Dragon Magic, but there are some exceptions, although the combat power is strong, but it is weaker than other dragon slaying magic, perhaps to make up for it, Wendy's magic has a strong magic.
Therefore, neither of them is surprised by Wendy's healing magic.
If it weren't for Wendy's young age and weak rank, Gerald wouldn't have woken up from a night's sleep.
"Okay, don't thank you anymore" Esther suddenly spoke, her expression becoming a little serious, "It stands to reason that you are Wendy's friend, and I shouldn't have asked you for your secrets, but Wendy and I were tasked with investigating the cause of that black hole, so can you explain to us what happened last night and your role in it." ”
"You...... You've seen it all! Gerald's pupils narrowed.
"It's not just me, Wendy too," said Aster, "and I can't thank you enough if you can help us out!" ”
Gerald was silent, and he glanced at Esther and Wendy beside him, "That's ...... That's super subspace magic, 'Armani'! ”
"Armani?" Esther looked confused, and the dull hairs on her forehead stood on end.
Esther's pupils shrank.
He's not Wendy, a novice who doesn't know anything.
Whether it was at Renault's house or in the guild, he liked to read, and although he couldn't say that he knew a lot, he still knew something.
There are thousands of types of magic attributes, and space is also a property of magic.
However, ordinary space magic only distorts the surrounding space or the space around the enemy, and has very little interference with reality.
However, with the title of space magic in the super subspace, it has risen to the dimensional level.
In a nutshell, it's interfering with the world, or magic that is enough to connect the two worlds.
This is where Esther is dignified, once this "Armani" belongs to the magic that opens the passage of another dimension, then the two worlds will be opened, and the world invasion will occur.
But soon, Aster's expression soothed, if he remembered correctly, the main plot of "Demon Tail" was because this magic happened in the main line, but then there was no world invasion.
"I'm sorry, that's all I can say, I can't say anything else!" Gerald had a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Brother Esther~" Wendy, an empathetic child, also saw that Gerald was unwilling to explain, so he looked at Esther.
"Okay, just know the source, then will there be 'Armani' here?"
This is the issue that Esther is most concerned about.
"Don't worry, 'Armani' has happened here many times, but I stopped it, and last night should have been the last.
Armani won't be activated here in the future, but I'll be in pain for a few days, and I'll travel again after checking it out! ”
Esther also knew that the other party's trip was to stop Armani.
"In this case, I will also stay for a while, and after confirming that I am okay, I am leaving!"
"Then I'll stay too!" Wendy held up her hand, "I...... I'd like to spend a little more time with Brother Gerald and Brother Esther. ”
"Now that the situation has been understood, the task we accepted is only an investigation mission anyway, and now it is considered completed, and the rest is none of my business!"
Esther got up and stretched, "Do you want to go back to the village with me?" ”
Gerald glanced at Esther with gratitude, nodded, and slowly stood up.
"Wang~"
"Laru~"
Suddenly, there was the hurried barking of a cutty dog and a larulas outside.
"Not good~" Aster's face changed, Cutty Dog was out of business last night, and Larulas was accompanying him, they must have been in danger at this time.
"It's Larulas and Cutty!" Wendy also exclaimed, only Gerald was at a loss.
"Larulas and Cutty are Brother Esther's elven companions, oh, Brother Esther is 'elven magic'.
It must be Larulas and the Carty dog in danger. ”
Gerald's face changed, "Let's go, go out and have a look!" ”
……
"Roar~" An angry roar resounded throughout the mountains and forests, frightening the birds to fly.
A red puppy was galloping around a monster with a bull's head and a height of about three meters, spitting out a mouthful of flames from time to time and exploding on the other party.
However, the minotaur has a thick skin, and these fireballs don't even count as tickling.
"Roar~" Maybe he was feeling annoyed, and the minotaur waved his hand, setting off a whirlwind.
The catty dog was swept up by a gust of wind, and then the slap was about to fall on him.
"Bajiquan, Collapse Strength~"
Rumble~
A figure collided with a slap, and the figure paused in mid-air for a moment before falling.
The slap also stalled for a moment, and was rushed back by the force of Esther's fist.
"Wang~" Cutty Dog landed beside Esther and barked wildly at the Minotaur.
"Tyrant of the Minotaur, Gainlord!"
In this magical world, there are many types of monsters, and low-level monsters only have the name of the race, such as the Green Goblin, his advanced monsters, bear power monsters, etc.
Even among the A-class monsters, there are only race names, and only S-level and above monsters are eligible to have their own names.
S-class monsters, except for a few monsters, are the top in the world.
But the one in front of him is the most special, an A-class monster, but it should have its own name.
In the human wizarding world, this monster bears the name of a tyrant.
Bull-headed tyrant, tyrannical master.
Gainlord, I don't know who first called this name, probably an elf.
Because "Gainlord", in the Elven language, means tyrant.
Gainlord's brutality is not only for humans, but also for monsters.
Gainlord, who is naturally belligerent, no, rather devours, will be attacked by other beings as soon as he encounters them.
Among the monsters, Gainlord was kept away.
"Gainlord?!" Gerald, who had rushed from behind, spoke in a solemn voice.
Wendy looked confused, but looking at the tall figure, her expression was slightly tight, even if she didn't know Gainlord, but she could sense the uneasiness, violent magic.
"Roar~" Gainlord roared angrily, and a huge roar caused a gust of wind that spread to the center of Gainlord.
The tree was shaking violently.
Esther stepped on his feet and clung to the ground.
The Carty dog bit Esther's trouser leg, and Larulas knocked down Wendy with an exclamation, and Wendy, who was already a little unsteady on her feet, was hit by this and also began to fly backwards in an exclamation.
Syllable~
Gerald grabbed Wendy's hand and stuck a scepter into the ground with the other.
While Wendy was caught, she didn't forget to hold Laruas in her arms.
Gainlord stopped roaring, and the wind around him subsided.
Its scarlet eyes were staring directly at Esther, and it remembered that it was this small creature that had hurt its hand.
Esther, who was targeted by the other party, was directly shrouded in a cold breath, and a feeling of fear couldn't help but arise from the bottom of his heart.
"Laru~" Larula's voice sounded in the bottom of Esther's heart, directly dispelling the fear of Gainlord.
Taking a deep breath, a white light appeared in Esther's eyes.
Bang~
Esther's figure rushed to the ground, falling like a cannonball in front of Gainlord, and in the eyes of the other man, a punch slammed into the door of its head.
The magic exploded, and Gainlord's head fell back and his body took a step back.
Esther's foot stepped on the void, and the original falling figure rose again.
Bang~
A leg whip kicked Gainlord in the side of the face, directly dented, and his body fell to the side.
However, Gainlord suddenly opened his scarlet eyes, and the body that was about to fall was like an iron pillar, and it stopped abruptly.
"Roar~" turned around, roared angrily, and the qi wave made Esther's body unstable, which was still in mid-air.
A foul stench swept over him, almost suffocating Esther, and at the same time, an oppression from the depths of his soul made his head dizzy.
"Wang~"
"Laru~"
As Gainlord's palm was about to slap Esther, two small figures appeared between them.
The power of the super-energies exploded, and the power of the flames exploded.
Under the common desire to protect their masters, the power of Cutty Dog and Laruas actually burst out beyond the power of the rank.
Rumble~
However, even so, Larulas and Cutty Dog were rushed out by the force of the explosion.
Luckily, the brief stagnation of Gainlord's hand was also time for Esther to recover.
With his left hand pulling Rulas and his right hand being a cutty dog, he threw a jack drop and slammed it on the ground, but he also avoided Gainlord's slap because of it.
