Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

The situation has become extremely chaotic. Facing off against the alien god around the statue of Luke Saikol is the Spirit People and me. The power of both parties is now directed at the statue of Luke Psychol, which had suddenly flown in.

I still don’t know what is going on. The true nature of Keller’s power and the purpose for which it came here to do.

When Keller uttered the word curse, I assumed it was plotting to destroy the statue. However, that assumption had been overturned by its own words. To begin with, Keller’s power is extraordinary. Even if all of Yggdra’s warriors, in addition to Miles and Finis, who are the highest level of Spirit, launched an attack, Keller still has room to spare.

After fighting, I understood. Even if Luke Saikol is the world’s strongest swordsman, he would still be no match for Keller’s power.

Literally, our status as a being is too different. Overwhelming authority that surpasses even the highest-ranking Spirit――It is truly worthy of being called a god.

I don’t know what Keller is trying to achieve by resurrecting the statue. However, the chances of winning are already close to zero in the first place.

Keller glares at me and shouts.

“What does that mean? Why, why are you getting in my way, of lifting the curse!?” (Keller)

“As if! I knooow!!!!” (Serene)

“!?” (Keller)

Without thinking, I muster up all my strength and put a load of curses on Luke with all my might. Curses are basically easier to cast than to break. The princess of Yggdra is also the king of Shaman. The source of a curse is powerful emotions. I, who have no grudge against Luke, cannot put a curse as powerful as Shero’s curse, but quality can be compensated by quantity. The offensive Magic that has been launched until just now has completely stopped. All the Spirit People present hear my voice and curse Luke’s statue.

Keller’s abilities are powerful, but it doesn’t seem like it is very good at lifting curses.

Keller’s fingertips that are touching the statue tremble as if they are convulsing.

By placing a curse on Luke’s statue, I finally sense Keller’s power. Something invisible is trying to remove the source of the curse placed on the statue. It is different from Magic or Spells, it is――A frighteningly strong power.

The rain has become stronger, highlighting its power.

It is something invisible. A completely transparent object protects Luke and Keller’s surroundings and is also connected to Luke’s statue.

“Impudent………… You insects. When you fail, you do nonsensical things………… Hh.” (Keller)

A part of the object covering Keller’s body extends and rises high into the sky. The object then changes into a cone and is slammed into the ground with great force. The ground shakes violently and the ground flips up dramatically. Yggdra’s warriors, who are releasing their power towards Luke, are blown away by the violent impact that has traveled through the ground.

“Kuh……!!” (Serene)

I immediately built up defensive Magic. I am not injured, but just staying up is all I can do.

I guess it doesn’t intend to kill us. If it intended to kill us, it would have used its force to directly crush us. However, although we won’t die, we can’t keep cursing Luke in this state.

Keller extends its hand. The air is stirred and a strong wind blows. When the raindrops are blown away, Keller’s power becomes completely invisible.

“Stay quiet………… The contract comes first……” (Keller)

The air rotates with Keller as its center. It is planning on eliminating everyone by force. I guess it is planning to focus on lifting Luke’s curse when everyone is down.

I immediately shout to my remaining companions.

“Defensive formation! Defense team blocks the wind! Attack team puts a curse on Luke!” (Serene)

“!? What is it! That! Drives you! So hard!!!” (Keller)

“None! Miles! Finis! Protect everyone!” (Serene)

Miles and Finis are Spirits, so they cannot put a curse. However, if the two pillars are on the defensive, all of Yggdra’s warriors can concentrate on putting a curse. Finis and Miles begin to move upon my words. Seeing this, Keller throws its bony arm as hard as it can.

“Don’t you dare! Interfere with this Keller! Without any reasoooooooooooooon!!!” (Keller)

A rage so strong that it would even override a thunderstorm. Resistance is futile.

Something, mow down the earth.

My vision trembles and a shock passes through my body. My senses are stretched thin, and before I know it, I am floating in the air. The offensive Magic that Yggdra’s warriors immediately unleashed to get in Keller’s way, the earthen wall built by Miles, the fog of exhaustion created by Finis, and the warriors who were confronting Keller are all blown away.

Thanks to the defensive Magic that I built almost reflexively, I reduced the damage from the fall and managed to get back up.

There is nothing around Keller. The only thing that remains is Luke’s statue, the rubbles that were lying on the ground, and the plants that were growing have been uprooted and cleared, leaving the area neatly cleared.

“Haaaa… Haaaa… Making me go through all that trouble! Damn, this barrier is so annoying too!! Is this city full of annoying things!” (Keller)

Keller’s voice sounds irritated. After everything it has done, the pressure I can feel from its body has not decreased in the slightest.

I look behind me, but not even half of Yggdra’s warriors are left. With that much impact, they must have flown far away. Some must have not been able to deploy their defensive Magic in time.

Miles and Finis attack Keller, who is standing in the sky. Keller screams in rage in response to the water spears and the aura of exhaustion that rained down on it.

“So the spirits of this world! Are going to take sides with these clowns?!” (Keller)

The water spears and jet-black aura hit an invisible wall and stop. Keller grips its right palm in a disgusted manner, and the ground makes a creaking sound, and pillars with sharp tips are created.

It is likely an invisible force that has carved away the earth. Next, Keller swings its left hand, and Finis and Miles’ spherical bodies are distorted.

The two pillars that are floating apart are unnaturally drawn together. The mysterious power seems to have a considerable range and the power to interfere with Spirits.

Then Keller raises its right hand and lightly swings it down.

The pillars fly towards the two pillar Spirits that are held in mid-air next to each other. It is impossible to avoid them. The flying pillars neatly pierce the two pillar Spirits. Physical attacks should have been ineffective against Spirits, but the two pillar Spirits seem to lose all their strength and crash to the ground. Impaled by a pillar, a sad-looking face appeared in the sphere, looking at me.

“Fuhahahahahah! Skewered dango1! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!” (Keller)

Keller’s crazy laughter echoes throughout the place. Apparently, it is under a lot of stress. However, if it continues like this, Luke’s curse will be lifted. After all, can I really not succeed like 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 had?

My body can still move. But there is no point in using Magic uselessly. Keller’s power has no openings.Follow current novelenglish.net . s on ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Something………… I have to find something, somehow find, a weakness――.

Keller shouts triumphantly.

“Don’t ever get in this Keller’s way again! Stop making me waste my power for nothinh!?” (Keller)

――At that moment, Keller’s body is sent flying into the air.

There is the sound of feet stomping on the ground. As Keller rises into the air, a small shadow approaches it with the speed of a gale. With flowing, pink-blond hair and shiny metal shoes. With a grin reminiscent of a predator, Liz Smart stomps into the air and then leaps further.

This is…… Reinforcement!
