Magicraft Meister Part 3

The swordbreaker pierced through the chest of <> successfully.

However, it seemed to be out of the important equipment, and <> did not stop.

The unevenness of the Swordbreaker had taken its toll, and while it took time to pull it out, <> lowered its long sword.

The <> was hit by a slash and rendered inoperable.

However, another golem quickly fills the gap.

That golem was also equipped with a swordbreaker.

The , which had been hit by the 's sword with its swordbreaker, broke the sword in a spectacular manner.

With its weapon broken, < retreats, but at that moment <>'s sword pierces it from both sides, and it stops moving.

* * * * * *

"Well, I'm sure I've defeated it..."

On the island of Horai, Reinhardt was snarling as he watched the <> fight.

"Jin, you didn't give him a lecture on how to use the swordbreaker, did you?"

"Oh. "No, indeed, I haven't. ......"

Swordbreaker is a special weapon, so there are some tricks to use it.

One of them is that when used for thrusting, it is harder to pull off.

"Basically, you have to catch it on the jagged side and twist it before it is pulled."

"I know. I think even the golems know that much when they see it."

"...... don't you think that's why they're poking and prodding you?"

"Maybe so,......."

Jin and Reinhardt looked at each other, "If you don't know much about weapon variations, I can see why that kind of application wouldn't work,.......

* * *

Although <<> was attacking in a poor manner, it was still a formidable opponent, and with a 15-fold difference in strength, <> was unable to overcome its overwhelming disadvantage.

Within 30 minutes of the start of the battle, all 10 units had ceased to operate.

The problem began here.

The <<> did not destroy them thoroughly as instructed by Maricka D., and did not attack the ones that had stopped moving.

The <> which had stopped moving was then carried to one place and put together.

Similarly, the heavily damaged < was also brought to a single location. The number of them was 16.

For every 10 of them killed, 16 of ours were killed.

* * * * * *

"Is that it?"

I hope so.

"Hmm, they didn't use the heat ray, did they?"

That's true. Is it because we're indoors?

"No, it's because this was just a <>, isn't it?"

Jin D., Marikka D., and the others agreed with each other that the battle was definitely a test.

"If this is a test, will there be another one, or will they tell us if we pass or fail?"

"I hope it's over now."

"I sure hope it's over. ......

But Jin D. and Marikka D.'s wishes were not answered, and the next exam seemed to have started.

"...... what?"

What happened?

Suddenly, the image on the screen seemed to blur, showing the floor, and then stopped.

What does this mean?

"Did the ...... visual sensor ...... eyes ...... see the floor, which means it fell?"

"Is it an invisible attack?"

Jin D. and Maricka D. exchange words.

Then the image switched.

It seems to be visual information from the outside the hall.

According to this information, the , which had been safe and sound, fell to its knees, and then collapsed further to the floor.

"Gravity magic."

"It seems so."

"It seems so."

"Hmmm, <> uses it."

Jin D. and Marikka D. join in the conversation.

"Last time <> and the others checked, they said it was about 100G."

This time it looks like more than that. It is about double ......200G.

This is my guess, based on the way the visible golem is bent over and sinking into the floor.

"So, in other words, you want me to try to stop this thing."

"How can I do that, Jin-shama?"

Now Jin D is being piloted by the old man, and the atmosphere of the pilot is that of Jin himself. So Marikka, who is piloting Marikka D, sometimes bites her hand.

Aside from that, the 200G seems to be generated only inside the main hall.

The golem looking in from outside the door is unaffected.

"......First of all, we need to look outside the door ......from the safe zone, we need to look at where the 200G-generating magi-machines ( I guess we should try to find out where the magi-machine that generates 200G is located."

"I see. ......<>,you hear that?　Please do it."

<

"Oh, and there's another entrance to the main hall, isn't there?　I think we can try to find it from there."

"I'll take care of that too."

<

So the six <> go looking for another way in and out.

And soon they find it.

The <> quickly takes action, as this one also has a door that can be opened by turning a handle.

"Oh, I can see around better from here."

<> activated the other large magic screen, and projected the visual information from the two bodies separately.

According to the subsequent images, the only object that seemed to be inside the large hall was the hemispherical dome in the center.

"Last time I checked, it was empty inside, wasn't it?"

"I suppose so."

If what was inside was small enough for the size of the dome, it could have been considered empty.

"So, if we do something about that dome, the 200 Gs will disappear.

"The question is, how?"

Jin D. and Marikka D. thought about it.

It would be easier if we could dispatch the forces of Horai Island, but since this is a test, we would like to make do with the current forces as much as possible.

"Throwing a sword ...... is no good, right?"

If you throw the sword from the passageway, it will fall to the floor when it enters the room and 200G is added. It makes no sense.

"The only attack that is not affected by gravity is ...... magic."

Strictly speaking, high gravity may have an effect on magic, just as light bends under high gravity. But 200G or so would be negligible for the time being.

"<>, can the golems use magic?"

<

If it is beginner's level, then it is <. If it is fire, it is <. If it is water, <> is the equivalent.

However, it was thought that water would probably be affected by high gravity.

"How can we stop the magi-machine that seems to be inside the dome ...... hmmm."

It was quite a difficult question even for the old man who was piloting Jin D.
