3: Showdown in the City of Crimson Water
âGraaaaaaaah!â Narovâs vertically split head cried out. The tentacles around his mouth squirmed and writhed.
Hang on... Did this guy absorb Narovâs dead body?!
I wasnât sure how powerful Narov had been when he was alive, but at the very least, this development had given his creepiness a real shot in the arm. Nevertheless, I had no obligation to let him show off what he could do! I began a quiet chant, but before either Aileus or I could make a move...
âElemekia Lance!â Dilarr let fly a spell from behind meâone capable of dealing damage directly to the spirit and taking out a lesser demon in one hit.
Aileus was basically a lump of flesh growing out of the ground, so he had no way to dodge it. Dilarrâs spear of light hit him dead-on... but the young manâs face didnât bat an eye, and Narovâs face just kept howling and waving its tentacles.
ThenâFwshâthe section of flesh hit by the Elemekia Lance flaked off like a scab, and...
âGraaaaaaaah!â Narovâs head let out another cry. Countless points of light appeared around him, causing the air itself to creak!
Guh!
âDodge!â I called to my crew, aborting my spell and quickly taking some distance myself.
As I ran, our opponent unleashed his light in all directions! I managed to dodge the first few points streaking toward me andâVrm!âthen came a sudden, powerful vibration hard enough to hurt my ears. It was followed by a wave of heat and steam.
âEveryone okay?!â I called out.
From beyond the haze, I could hear each of my allies reply...
âIâm fine!â
âThink so...â
âIâm alive, at least!â
It seemed everyone had managed to survive, but that was a hell of a spell Aileus had just fired off... That had to be a Blast Bomb. It was a real doozy, basically like firing off multiple powered-up Fireballs at once. The balls of light had burst against the waterâs surface, creating the surge of steam.
Thanks to that, we now couldnât see our enemy at all. Of course, he was in the same predicament... or so I hoped, but it wasnât wise to make assumptions about a guy whoâd already surrendered his humanity. Plus, that wasnât the only thing working against us. Because Iâd been using my shortsword like a torch with Lighting cast on it back in the tunnel, Iâd lost it when we were swept away by the underground channel. It wasnât a fatal blow to me or anything, but it was always nice to have a blade on hand to deflect attacks or distract opponents. But, welp, no use crying over spilled swords!
I began to chant a spell...
...!
And suddenly, inexplicably, I felt a chill run up my spine. I moved to the left on instinct. No sooner had I thanâSkrch!âI felt something lash out of the mist, brushing by my pauldron.
âGuh!â
âWuh?!â
I could hear Gourry and Dilarr yelp through the fog at almost that same moment. Was Aileus using it as a smoke screen after all?! I wasnât about to let
