Chapter 414: Let's Summon the Ruby Beast

Oi, is it okay for you to come out?

As Lyle was staying vigilant of the area around the Indestructible Carriage, Tiara suddenly came out of it. The unanimous understanding of everyone present was that the enemy's main target was likely Tiara. And since Tiara was a Summoner, she could still fight while staying in the safest possible place, which was inside the Indestructible Carriage. That was why Lyle thought there should be no need for Tiara to come outside and said so, but Tiara saidYumika requested something from mewhile getting off the carriage. Then Mefirus, who was being held in Tiara's arms, frowned and opened his mouth.

Hrm. I didn't want to use it in the actual battle yet, but...

It can't be helped, grandfather. There is nothing else we can do.

Mefirus didn't have any particular counterarguments to Tiara's words. What Tiara said was true, and Mefirus knew that. After watching that exchange, Lyle asked a question.

What are you planning to do?

After Lyle's question, Tiara opened her mouth while watching Marie and the others head towards them.

Summon the Ruby Griffon.

After Tiara's determined words, Lyle squinted. Tsuvara's guardian beastRuby Griffon. That summoned beast possessed the power to consign a thousand soldiers to oblivion and was known to the people of Hyvern as a fearsome beast of annihilation.

That...?

Lyle had seen that guardian beast several times during intensive training. Particularly the first time it was summoned; the surrounding area became a sea of fire, so Kazane became a dragon and hurriedly extinguished the fire with Cold Breath. Since Lyle had also barely managed to escape with his life, it was a memory he didn't really want to remember.

Although, at present, they weren't in Tsuvara's royal capital. Therefore, it wasn't possible to connect to the Magical Power River and draw out its original power, but it was surely still a powerful summoned beast.

Can you do it?

Tiara nodded after Lyle's question.

I willdo it!

They were definite words. They were the words of a person who could stand up and endure the heavy burden of not being able to fail. After those words, Lyle made a fangy grin.

Alright, Gieve.

Then Lyle talked to his spear.

What is it, myself?

In that case, we'll also have to push ourselves a bit more.

Certainly.

Lyle nodded after that reply.

Tiara smiled at the exchange between Lyle and Gieve, then turned to Louise.

Louise-san, please take care of things after I'm done.

Leave it to me. Mefirus, you'll show me your good points, right?

Louise agreed with Tiara's words, then talked to Mefirus immediately after.

You can leave it to me. It's my granddaughter's request. I'll manage somehow.

Perhaps because he was happy to be relied on by his lover for the first time in a long time, the juvenile Griffon grinned widely.

Well, just watch. Your love might be rekindled?

I'm expecting it.

After Mefirus' words, Louise nodded with a full-faced smile.

So then, grandfather. Let's go.

Yes. It's up to us.

With Mefirus' words as the signal, Tiara activated the Ruby Beast Rapier and Flame Bird Ring at the same time. 10 Flame Knights and a Flame Bird were summoned in front of her.

Then the baby griffonMefiruslanded in the center.

What is she doing?

Lyle had only seen Tiara's Ruby Griffon summoning from a distance. Because of that, he didn't know what she was doing in front of him. After Lyle's question, Louise opened her mouth.

Tiara is currently level 27. That's not high enough to summon the Ruby Griffon, so she needs to use a slightly irregular summoning method.

Irregular?

After Lyle's words, Louise repliedThat's right.

By offering all her summoned beings as a sacrifice, she can compensate for the deficiency and summon it.

Doesn't that cause a huge burden?

Lyle frowned after Louise's explanation.

Tiara's summoned beings were highly responsive, so the feedback when they were damaged was also relatively high. Lyle thought that sacrificing all of them despite that would surely cause a non-trivial amount of damage to Tiara. And Louise confirmed Lyle's conjecture.

Even so, she decided to do it. In that case, the only thing we can do is believe in her success and watch over her.

After those words, Lyle glared at the approaching enemy.

Lyle saw Yumika, Jin Bahar, and Emily, who was riding Shippuu, heading towards them, with the mass of meat Marie following behind them.

No, that's wrong, Louise-san.

Lyle?

In response to Louise's doubting voice, Lyle's gaze turned toward the approaching Marie as he answered.

I don't feel like just watching.

Naturally.

Gieve agreed with Lyle's words. Then the Dragon Spirit in Lyle's body flared, and he started running. He had been able to rest. That being the case, Lyle rushed to the battlefield.

Meanwhile, the battle between Marie and Yumika's group had now completely switched over to guiding Marie into the Ruby Griffon's range.

And while Emily was riding Shippuu, the arrows she was firing were directly hitting Marie.

Good grief, they're not having any effect. What in the world?

However, exactly as Emily stated, there were no signs that they'd been effective. The dragon archery technique using Dragon Spirit calledDragon Fangemphasized power, but the crucial target Marie approached without paying any attention to her body being pierced. And the places that were pierced immediately healed completely.

It's not that they're having no effect.

Her regeneration speed simply seems to be too fast.

Yumika supplemented Jin Bahar's words. Marie's monstrousness made everyone want to scream, but unfortunately, there was nowhere to run. They had no choice but to fight her head on.

Naaaa!

Perhaps Shippuu was irritated, for he did cat punches while crying Nago, Nago as he created wind blades like a Kamaitachi. However, the continuously created wind attacks were repelled by a long and furry tail that emerged from Marie. It seemed Shippuu's attack power wasn't enough to cause even slight damage to Marie.

Uncle Shippuu, don't feel down.

Naa.

Emily petted his head, and Shippuu's mood improved. However, Shippuu noticed that the tail that had sprouted from Marie was making a strange noise.

Na, naago!?

The area surrounding that fur was making a strange noise that made his own fur stand on end.

Everyone, dodge; that's a Kamaitachi tail!

Jin Bahar, who had seen that figure before, shouted. That wasn't Shippuu's technique, but the tail of a Kamaitachi monster. In other words, that was...

It's coming!?

At the same time as Jin Bahar's words, a strong wind swept over that place. The wind magical beast Kamaitachi. The cutting whirlwind emitted by that tail possessed power that far surpassed what Shippuu could do. Then, that whirlwind

GUGAA!

Was erased by an explosive roar. And Yumika's eyes perceived the person who did that.

Lyle!

Yo, I came to help.

While adopting a posture with his spear, Lyle replied to Yumika.

What was that just now?

The roar of a dragon has the ability to erase magical power. Well, it's impossible unless it's a powerful dragon, though.

Yumika's question was answered by Gieve's spear. He seemed to be implicitly telling Yumika his own ability was high. Perhaps he had a feeling of rivalry against Yumika, who was using her Complete Dragon Transformation, but Yumika simply nodded and saidI see.

This isn't the time to be impressed. Yumika, incoming.

Tsk, one after another.

Exactly as Jin Bahar said, a huge arm sickle had come out of Marie's body and was aimed at Yumika's back. In response, akatanagrew from Yumika's back and repelled it. The companions around her looked at that katana with surprised eyes. A katana grew from the back of their companion. There was no way they wouldn't be surprised.

Wha, what was that?

As their representative, Jin Bahar gingerly asked that. In response to Jin Bahar's question, Yumika made a discomfited expression as she scratched her head and answered.

Ijika... the enemy I defeated a while ago possessed this katana, and, well, when it possessed me for some reason, I conversely dominated it, and it won't leave me.

You dominated it?

Seeing Jin Bahar's puzzled expression, Yumika repliedAfter all, I am a Metamorphosis Miko, but that made him groan even further. However, since it was such a Skill, it couldn't be helped. It seemed the blade-body unifying katanaMasamunewas completely under Yumika's control, and she was able to handle it.

I'm not in a position to say this to someone else, but you've also practically stopped being human.

Stop; being told that so earnestly is seriously hurtful.

After Jin Bahar's words, Yumika made an expression like she was about to cry, but since she had the appearance of a dragon, her face just looked like she was glaring at him and was simply scary.

That's not important; we're almost there.

No, it is important! It is quite urgent, though.

Yumika complained after Lyle's words, but the Indestructible Carriage was almost right under their noses. And it looked like Tiara was still preparing. By all rights, it wasn't a technique that should be used in actual battle yet. Seeing that state, Yumika thought it wasn't the right time to be depressed and pulled herself together.

So then, shall we turn around now?

Then Yumika and the others made a U-turn on the spot and charged toward Marie, who was chasing after them. Now, the conclusion to the long battle was finally just around the corner.
