Chapter 141: Attack (2)
"Mina! Stop messing around! This young lady is not an opponent you can handle." Johnny frowned when hearing Mina's somewhat overconfident speech, and reached out to stop her.
He had known Mina for a long time, so he knew clearly what kind of strength she had. Although there was hardly anyone at her age that was stronger than her, facing this knight girl whose casually distributed magic energy could cause a storm, she wouldn't have a chance of winning. In this battle, he must fight her himself.
"Johnny! Don't treat me like a kid and underestimate me! I want to challenge this knight sister!" Mina who was stopped by Johnny had a look of dissatisfaction and waved the anchor in her hand vigorously.
"Mina! Don't act like a kid! This knight's opponent is me. Just watch it!" Johnny clenched the handleless sword in his and said impatiently.
"Fighting on this ship may cause a lot of damage to this ship. I believe you don't want to see such a situation happen. If possible, let's fight on the island below." Arcelia ignored the argument between Johnny and Mina and made her proposal in a flat tone.
"Sure! Mina, let's go!" Hearing Arcelia's proposal, Johnny nodded. He didn't want his battle with the knight girl to cause too much damage to this gorgeous and powerful ship. After speaking, his figure flashed a few times and moved to the beach below the Ulysses.
"Johnny! Wait a minute!" Mina also trotted all the way, following him and getting off the ship.
"Helen, let's go!" Arcelia said flatly, and then jumped off the deck of the Ulysses. Her silver figure was as light as a bird in the sky as if she was not wearing armor at all.
"Those who dare to trouble Daddy should die! Daddy, I will make them regret for causing trouble to us!" Helen muttered a few words in a low voice, a cold killing intent flashed in her eyes, and then she followed Arcelia and jumped down the ship.
Johnny's hands shook involuntarily when he saw Arcelia jumping off the deck, but it was not the fearful tremor, but the excited tremor he normally had when he saw something interesting.
‘Is that armor not a physical entity but the crystallization of magic energy? If this is not the case, it is impossible for the person wearing it to have such light movements. It seems that the fight today will be tough! But isn't fighting against powerful opponents something I always want?' Thinking of this, Johnny's mouth showed a slight smile.
However, when he saw Helen jump off the deck behind Arcelia, his smile instantly solidified, replaced by a look of unbelief.
‘What is going on! ! How come that silver-haired girl is also here, is she here to fight too! But there is no energy fluctuation of battle energy and magic in her body at all! Even though the knight girl had hidden her magic energy at first, I could still vaguely feel the power on her body, but is this girl…'
"It's still a little closer to the ship, let's go farther away." Arcelia, who came to Johnny, looked around and shook her head.
"Oh! It seems that Miss Knight has a Phantasm with a fairly large attack range! Okay! Let's go to the flat land over there!" Arcelia's words temporarily diverted Johnny's attention from Helen. After tentatively asking, he pointed to a clearing about one kilometer away from Ulysses.
Arcelia didn't answer his words, but ran towards the clearing at wind speed, while Helen followed her closely.
‘As expected!' Although Arcelia did not answer Johnny's question, Johnny inferred something from her actions. And Helen's speed, which was not inferior to Arcelia, made him more vigilant.
"Mina, you will be responsible for dealing with the silver-haired girl." Johnny rushed to the clearing and said seriously to Mina beside him.
"You're not kidding, are you?! That girl doesn't seem to have any power! She doesn't have any magic or battle energy fluctuations! And she is actually only wearing pajamas!! I have never heard of a person wearing pajamas for battle. Haha!" Mina said disapprovingly, and she couldn't help laughing when she talked about Helen's pajamas.
"No, I don't think she's that simple. If it's just an average person, it's impossible to keep up with our speed. You have to be careful. Ah! We are here, let's fight separately!" Johnny warned Mina, when they got to the edge of the flat ground. In the middle of the flat ground, Arcelia and Helen were ready to fight.
There was no need for any polite talk. Now there was only one thing left between them. And that was a fight.
The first person that attacked was Arcelia. She held the holy sword in her hand that was surrounded by the enchantment and launched a continuous slash at Johnny.
The holy sword that couldn't be seen with the naked eye let out a roar as it tore through the air, and Johnny, who noticed something wrong, retreated quickly. Indeed, facing an enemy with an invisible sword, it was really difficult for ordinary people to figure out the direction of the opponent's attack. But Johnny didn't seem to be afraid of this. The handless sword in his hand had not even been pulled out of its sheath.
He just used a strange way of moving to avoid Arcelia's attack. It wasn't blindly retreating, because his body was actually facing Arcelia's sword while his right hand was placed on the sword held by his left hand. However, the sword did not seem to be drawn from its sheath. In a way, his whole body was in a state of near static.
However, it was this seemingly static body that avoided all the attacks of Arcelia's invisible sword. His way of avoiding was a strange sliding, just like his body was on the ice surface, and he was just like an ice block sliding on the ice surface, but the movement of his feet could not be seen. And whenever Arcelia's sword approached his body about one meter, he would slide two meters away.
At the same time, the fight between Mina and Helen on one side also broke out. Mina, who had underestimated the enemy from the beginning, soon suffered. The power of Helen's fist was many times greater than she had imagined, so she was accidentally suppressed by Helen's attack from the beginning.
"Clang! Clang!" The loud noise kept appearing on Mina's anchor, as if a huge hammer was hitting that anchor.
"Oh no! If this goes on, Mina will lose! Mr. Dolphin!!" Mina who was suppressed by Helen's fist attack gritted her teeth, and then yelled!
As Mina shouted, the white dolphin who had been standing outside the field suddenly disappeared, and then reappeared between her and Helen inexplicably.
In the control room, there was something like the surface of the water. The images of Arcelia and Helen fighting on flat ground in the distance were clearly projected on this piece of water-like thing. And Aya and Lapis were watching these images. When the scene of Mina calling the dolphins fell in the eyes of Aya who was watching the battle, her face instantly showed a look of enlightenment, and she whispered,
"Oh, so it is this. It seems that the little girl is relying on this to break through Ulysses's illusion system!"
"Rely on this to break through Ulysses's illusion system? Would you please make it clear? Aya. Lapis doesn't understand?" Lapis, who was watching the battle, turned her gaze to Aya's face, a confused look appeared on her face.
"Mhm! Let me explain! That white dolphin is actually not a living thing. It should be a collection of some power, but it has a certain degree of intelligence that can cooperate with its master in fight or reconnaissance. Because it is not a living thing, the illusion system on the Ulysses has no effect on it. That's why the girl can ride it and easily follow behind the Ulysses." Aya pointed to the white dolphin that suddenly appeared between Helen and Mina just now and explained to Lapis who was confused.
"Oh, so that's the reason. But creating a non-existent life, manipulating it, and even summoning it while ignoring the location, it seems that the little girl has a special kind of Phantasm! Will Helen have a problem dealing with her?" Lapis turned her gaze back to the image of the battlefield and said without emotion.
"Don't worry, this type of Phantasm can't penetrate Helen's defenses at all, she is... Forget it, all you need to know is that Helen is invincible. But there seems to be a problem with Arcelia. Although she hasn't exerted all her strength yet, the pirate in the black trench coat is dodging her attacks too easily!" Looking at the image of Arcelia on the battlefield, Aya's face showed a trace of worry.
"Strange! There seems to be a loud noise near the ship just now! Lulu, we should go back and have a look." Ulysses walking in the forest picked up the pink rabbit bouncing at his feet and headed in the direction of the ship.Monthly AccessTier 1: 17 Advance chapters Link
