Chapter 256
Chapter 256: Offensive posture
Translator: Tseirp
Opening my eyes after ending my meditation to calm my heart, I saw that the pale white flame in the Sanctuary Barrier had completely burnt the Evil Flower .
While staring that the scene, I was relieved that it was not filled with miasma .
Luckily there was only one such Evil Flower this time as we would probably have to cancel our plan if there were multiples of such monsters .
When I turned my sight to the others, they were already all ready and were watching me .
“It looks like we have safely gotten rid of the Evil Flower so we will now destroy Cloud’s research facility . Let’s go . ”
Kefin was the vanguard to search for traps as we walked while I cast purification from behind .
There were a few traps set up but Kefin disarmed them without difficulty .
No monsters appeared so we were quite at ease before I noticed miasma spreading before our eyes .
“It won’t disappear? Perhaps a barrier?”
The miasma did not disappear even after casting Purification Magic .
Observing it closely, the miasma did not leak to our direction too .
“Luciel-sama, I still have the Aura Coat on so I’ll take point . ”
Just as I was about to let Kefin go ahead, I recalled the bad feeling I had .
“Kefin, return . ”
I transformed the Illusionary Cane into the Illusionary Sword and attempted to destroy the barrier with the Holy Dragon’s power .
Upon doing so, the Holy Dragon easily broke down the barrier that trapped the miasma and flew forth while consuming the miasma .
Just as I was about to stop the Holy Dragon that was created using the Holy Dragon Sword, I saw figures of demons jumping at the Holy Dragon .
As expected . I had a feeling that would happen .
Creating an ambush seems to be their conventional means .
It would have been bad if I had let Kefin go ahead .
I cast Purification Wave to follow after the breaking of the barrier so the miasma swirled and disappeared .
However, perhaps the space was a lot wider than expected or there were multiple Evil Flowers, the miasma filled the room again the moment it was dispelled .
“I could confirm multiple demons inside . I will spread a Sanctuary Barrier so hit anything that comes close . ”
I told everyone and knowing that there were multiple demons present, I immediately activated Sanctuary Barrier .
The consumption on my magical power was intense but I felt that it would be bad if I took half-measures there .
Then, I cast Aura Coat and Area Barrier on everyone to complete our battle preparations and waited for the opportunity …
However, the demons I saw disappeared into the miasma and although I could tell that they were there, I could not pin-point cast magic circle at their location .
I was supposed to practice Magic Circle Chant for situations like this but for some reason my trainings always ended up as close combat trainings .
That was totally Shisho’s influence . More importantly, those demons aren’t coming out huh …
Do they really feel the need to rely on gimmicks to fight against us?
Continuing the standoff would increase the risk unnecessarily and even though I only had 20% of my magical power left, it might be better if we are the aggressor …
I switched the Illusionary Sword to Illusionary Cane and started chanting Magic Circle Chant . I aimed at the center of where I could see from the purification . I gathered my magical power and raised my voice .
“If the enemy will not come, we will make them have no choice but to come . I will cast Sanctuary Circle at the center of where I could see just now . Please deal with them if they come attacking . Also, they might not be weakened so do not let your guard down . ”
I cast Sanctuary Circle after hearing everyone’s reply .
The sudden appearance of a pale white cylinder of light purified the space that was filled with miasma .
And after echoing screams resounded, I saw demons rushing towards the barrier .
