Chapter 101

「But unfortunately for you, Moses. I’ve upgraded a bit!」

With that, I drew the God-Slaying Flame Sword from its sheath.
For now, the only goblin emperors visible in the forest are three.

They are considerably larger than ordinary goblins.
However, since goblins are naturally small, their size isn’t much different from humans.

Although they lack a visually striking impact, the difficulty of subjugating each individual is at the S-Rank level.
And while I can’t see them with my eyes, I can sense that all thirteen are gathered within a radius of 300 meters.

Well, thirteen Goblin Emperors would be able to easily wipe out a lightly populated country on their own.

As for the Ultimate Goblin, presumed to be the leader… it doesn’t seem to be within my range of detection.

No, there’s also the possibility that it’s evading my scouting abilities.

Then, the closest goblin emperor lunged at me.
Just as I was about to fight back with my sword—

「Cordelia! Get back!」

The divine spear Gungnir flew in and pierced the goblin emperor.
Come to think of it, Orsted recently… received the bestowal of a divine artifact, not just a holy relic.

Like Lute’s Excalibur, that spear also has the attribute of God Slayer, rendering the regeneration ability of demons meaningless.
Furthermore, it can be controlled with threads of fighting spirit, making it convenient to use even when thrown, as it quickly returns to the hand.

And the one who wields it is Orsted, the hero who personally broke through the S-Rank barrier… the strongest hero of the current generation.

In that case, it’s inevitable that the goblin emperor would be defeated with a single blow before my eyes.

And then, a new goblin emperor emerged from behind us.
Prakash intercepted the goblin’s claw strike with his monstrous strength, giving Abeno the opportunity to craft his Yin-Yang spells.

「Flame Sign: Megido!」

The inferno exploded, engulfing Prakash as well.
However, no one here is worried about Prakash.

That’s because…

「As expected.」

「Yes, even discarding magical manipulation related to swordsmanship… Once you master physical language, magic becomes a hindrance. He sealed all of his own magical powers unrelated to physical abilities which simultaneously nullify all events related to magic.」

「Yes, Magic Discard… or Magic Shedding. It exhibits incredible performance when combined with a sorcerer. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it… well, that’s cheating in its own way.」

Prakash is a special type of hero who, when paired with Abeno, demonstrates his true worth.
He stops enemies with brute force, then annihilates them with a purification magic that wipes them out along with Prakash.

As far as I know, the only way to bypass Prakash’s magic nullification barrier is… something as serious as Lilith’s golden roar during her full effort.

Well, that woman must have had quite a bit of trouble in the past six months.

Anyway…

「Cordelia? Break through their encirclement and withdraw. You can’t handle the goblin emperors, let alone the Ultimate Goblin!」

「No, I’ll settle it here.」

No, rather— if they let me settle it here, it would be much appreciated, as I need to head to other sites of the Great Calamity.

「Hey, Cordelia? On the battlefield, you’ll obey what I say, got it? Among us… you’re the weakest.」

At that moment…
I felt a tingling sensation in my brain, like a bolt of electricity.

It’s here. The mythical beast that’s said to be synonymous with the Great Calamity.
