Chapter 232.1. Shin's Heroic Event


A purple radiance emitted from the magic circle that suddenly appeared in the hall illuminates Mii-chan and her friends.

"W-What is this?"

"M-My strength is fading away~."

"It's like our mana is being absorbed!"

Something seems to be leaving their bodies. Yamiyo and others kneel, wearing expressions of agony. 

My classmates also collapse to the ground as if they can't endure it.

"Kuh, what is this...?"

Mii-chan looks around and senses that her mana is being drained, causing her to fall to her knees.

"I, it's a dark attribute ritual magic [Mana Drain Field]! But I've never seen such a powerful effect."

Yamiyo tells me the effect of this magic field. Because the mana is being sucked out so rapidly, the body enhancement magic is also deactivated, and the body has no power.

"Hahaha. We meet again, Takano Miu. Your mana will be empty in a few minutes. Will you be able to use divine magic like before?"

"Aegir of the Dead Sea!"

From the cave depths, a clattering sound of bones is heard, and a robed skeleton with decaying muscle tissues clinging to its cheekbones and pale blue flames in its eye sockets appears. 

The skeletal hand holds the artifact known as Crowley's Box.

The undead king, Aegir of the Dead Sea, who controls the dead and spreads death, is standing there.

"Could this be a trap?"

Mii-chan manages to squeeze out a voice, despite feeling powerless and on the verge of collapsing.

"Exactly. It was quite an effort for us to lead you here unknowingly."

"And who is behind all this?"

Trembling, Yamiyo manages to stand up with his sword acting as a staff.

"Ah, my apologies. It was me, you see."

One of the male classmates who collapsed nonchalantly stands next to Egil.

He has an ordinary face, and Mii-chan doesn't know his name, but with a sneer, his body turns completely black and melts away, revealing a man inside.

"So it was you, Annal... You!"

Yamiyo shouts with hatred, seemingly aware of the opponent's identity.

"So, you were the ones who stole Menou Marquisate's new type of magical weapon."

Elizabeth, who is crawling on the ground, blurts out something strange. A new magical weapon? Is this magic circle related to that?

"Hahaha, if you're talking about the scrap that was turned into garbage in an instant, then yes, that's what I mean. I planned to use it for a little experiment, but it was utterly useless trash."

"Garbage... How much did it cost..."

It seems to refer to the scrap lying over there. It wasn't in Mii-chan's memory, but it seems to have been a mid-boss.

So, Menou Marquisate had their magical weapon stolen. I see.

"Hahaha, your mana must be running out by now."

"This is bad..."

Mii-chan also loses strength and collapses to the ground.

She checks her remaining mana on the status board.


-MP 2101-

Her mana is decreasing at a terrifying speed.

"Fu-haha! I've been eagerly awaiting this opportunity for a long time!"

"Kuh!"

-MP 2101-

No good. There's almost no mana left.

"Just in case, I brought another one, but it seems it wasn't necessary."

"I have to use magic somehow..."

Mii-chan tries to gather her strength and stand up.

-MP 2106-

Ah, because she lay down and treated as resting, the MP she used to summon Guu-chan recovered a little.

No good, this won't work. It doesn't seem to have any effect. I suspected it, but MP isn't Mana Points. But it's Magic Points.

Sad news, Mii-chan hasn't even been using mana in this world. 

However, she needs to read the atmosphere. Mii-chan is a good girl who can read the atmosphere.

So for now, she should act as if it's an event and put on a pained expression. As the award-winning young girl, she'll be fine.

"Even just one strike..."

With trembling hands, she releases magic toward Aegir. She wants to strike back at the mob character.

[Heaven's Beam]

"Aghh!"

A pure white laser, as thin as a fingertip, pierces through Egil's body. It's the holy magic, [Heaven's Beam], which is effective against undeads.

"Gwaa! M-My body is burning! What incredible power! You wretch!"

Aegir falls to the ground, screaming in pain. 

Oops, the damage might have been a bit too much.

Mii-chan quickly stands up and takes out a fist-sized magic stone from the bag hanging from her waist.

"Even though you should have almost no mana left, to use holy magic of this power... You're not to be underestimated! Take this too!"

[Resist Holy Field]

He breaks the gem, and dark particles spread around Aegir. It seems to be a technique that nullifies holy magic.

Wait, isn't this the technique Shin used?

The area that seals holy magic expands, and Aegir seems pleased.

"Attacking Menou Marquisate's research facility and planning to misuse their work is unforgivable!"

Despite her suffering, Elizabeth condemns Aegir.

Thank you for the explanation, Elizabeth-san.

Ah, when events like this unfold right before your eyes in a novel... it's just incredibly unnatural.

"Hahaha. Call it what you will, but your expressions of agony and despair are the sweet nectar to me."

"Kuh, this is bad..."

The ground is uncomfortable with its rough and hard surface, so Mii-chan decides to sit cross-legged and watch the event.

For now, she should contact Frigg-oneesan as well.

"Ugh, are we going to die here?"

"If only we had mana..."

"Where are the teachers?"

"Fear not. You will be treated with utmost care as experimental subjects."

Aegirl laughs scornfully, wanting to make them taste even more despair.

It's about time for Mii-chan to have her turn. 

If there's nothing else, it's time for Mii-chan to show some protagonist-like heroics.
