Okami wa Nemuranai 55.2

 2





The enemy's air force unit is more than 300 people strong. They're bird beastmen.

Flapping their wings as they flew toward Lecan's group.

About five of these beastmen possess terrifying amounts of mana pools.

Looking again, most of the birdmen were carrying weapons on them except for the leading five who were were flying while carrying five other beastmen on them. These five individuals were the owners of those incredible mana pools.

The archer unit led by knight Pulkus changed their course slightly to the left. They plan to intercept the air force unit. But it doesn't seem like they'd make it in time.

The air unit rapidly approached.

Lecan thought of using <Rush Flare> for a moment.

But it won't reach their current altitude.

<Rush Flare> is originally a magic cast by a group of mages, but Lecan's version can only reach 200 to 300 steps ahead since he casts it by himself.

It might work when they have started attacking but there's no guarantee they'd get within <Rush Flare>'s range even then.

Besides, <Rush Flare> is an offensive magic that comes hurling down from above. It could hit allies when it comes down.

Their figures clearly came into view.

Wands.

The five beastmen mages have their wands at the ready.

"<Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>!"

Lecan shot a barrage of <Flame Spears> he knew wouldn't reach. It's something at least.

"Jinga! Incoming magic attack! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>!"

Magic arrows shot out into the sky from behind Lecan.

Eda is attacking with her <Bow of Yelvitz>.

<Bow of Yelvitz> can covers a much higher range than <Flame Spears>.

She hit quite a few of the flying beastmen. But the enemies were unperturbed. The range must have weakened the arrows but they likely have high magic defense as well.

These flying beastmen rapidly approached.

The wands set up by the five mages are accumulating a dreadful amount of highly dense mana. They've finished reciting the spell, they can shoot it anytime now.

"Spears! Spearsmen! Point your spears at the sky!"

Jinga gave his order.

"<Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>!"

The leading five started their descent.

Eda's barrage gets even more intense. Yet the enemies won't fall.

Mashajain archer unit also launched their attack under knight Pulkus. But there is too much distance and the angle isn't optimal.

The five beastmen mages unleashed their magic. Red, blue, yellow, purple and white colored attack magic.

"<Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>!"

One of the <Flame Spears> landed on one of the mages as it barely got within range.

The ground exploded a moment later.

The view was completely obstructed for a while.

Lecan and Eda were unharmed due to <Necklace of Intuador>'s protection. And the spearsmen had swiftly pointed up <Spears of Toron> fortifying theirs and the knights' defense during the chaos.

Then the rest of the flying beastmen descended.

Eda shot out a high speed barrage of arrows and managed to shot down two of them.

The flying beastmen threw down the spears they were carrying.

A downpour of 300 spears.

Eda stopped shooting and curled up on the ground.

Jinga stood before Eda with <Shield of Wolkan> deployed and blocked the raining spears. The sounds produced were no joke. Those spears have quite some weight behind them.

"<Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>! <Flame Spear>!"

Lecan kept shooting <Flame Spears> while guarding himself with his own <Shield of Wolkan>.

However, the flying beastmen wouldn't descend to <Flame Spear>'s range.

The beastmen's air force raised their altitude once they were done the spear hurling.

Leaving gouged grounds, burning grass and horses and spearsmen suffering from getting pierced by the spears behind.

The knights didn't suffer as much damage thanks to their heavy equipment.

The flying beastmen flew away and started making a turn in the air. They'd likely resume their attack. This would devastate Mashajain's force.

Then, Jinga shouted his order at an earsplitting volume.

"Stand up, O Knights of Mashajain! Charge to the enemy base! We must turn this into melee!"

Just as the knights attempted to resume their charge, the beastmen's howls reverberated once again.

(Dammit!)

(Nasty timing!)

"<Purification>! <Purification>! <Purification>! <Purification>! <Purification>! <Purification>!"

Eda cast six <Purifications> among the falling Mashajain Knights. Exquisite blue speheres of lights protected Jinga and five other knights' heads.

However, <Purification> can only protect so many people. Most of the knights and spearsmen had been incapacitated.

The flying beastmen had finished circling around in the horizon.

Jinga stared at them with an intense gaze.

(No choice.)

(Guess I'll charge into the enemy base on my own.)

He's only 1000 step away from the howling beastmen. He should be able to reach the enemy base shortly if he just use <Leg Bands of White Devils>. But the question remains whether he'd be able to cut the path to the enemy's supreme commander.

That was when.

Lecan sensed some sort of presence and turned his head to the northeast sky.

Flying.
<TLN: Catch the latest updates and edits at Sousetsuka .com >
Something flying.

Many something.

A hundred of something are flying in their direction at an amazing speed.

(Are those?)

(White-Necked Dragons!)

About a hundred White-Necked Dragons came flying toward the battlefield they were on.

No, that's not it.

They're heading toward the flying beastmen.

(Allies?)

Lecan looked to the western sky.

The flying beastmen that had completed their reversal came flying in this direction while raising altitude.

They must have inferred the enemy's reinforcement and resolved to face them off.

Lecan grabbed the <Wand of Halvos> Shira gave him and started reciting a spell.

"Mana. Mana. O Great Mana. Heed my call, and converge."

Both enemies and allies are focusing their attention to the sky. Now's the chance to grab the first strike.

"Dwell in my abdomen, swirl into a vortex. Pass through my right arm and dwell in my wand. Loop the mana in my wand. Keep looping and wait for convergence."

The flying White-Necked Dragon unit entered Lecan's <Life Detection>'s range.

A familiar presence of an enormous mana pool.

It's Jiza.

A guide of Palcimo Magic Research Institute, Chief Minister Jiza Morfes.

Palcimo mages are riding on the hundred White-necked Dragons.

"O fresh mana, well up. Well up and settle in my abdomen, join into a pool, connect into a whirlpool and flow into my wand!"

Palcimo Magic Unit is on a higher altitude. They're descending to intercept the enemy force. The flying beastmen are heading straight at them.

The two high speed flying units got within each other's range in a flash before a clash of magic began. However, the beastmen mages may be powerful but there were only four of them. Contrasting that, 20 individuals in Palcimo Magic Unit unleashed their magic. Every one of them must be a Guide-class mage capable of long range magic.

"Wand. Wand. Accelerate. Accelerate my mana. All prayers into one. All destruction in my hand. Foretell me the time. The time of liberation. The time is nigh."

An especially gigantic sphere of magic hit the leading flying beastmen, wrapping them in an explosive burst of flames. The image of Jiza and her <Seven-headed Blue Wand> flashed in Lecan's mind.

Lecan broke into run with his right hand still gripping his wand.
