Summoning at Random

"No way, you didn't expect a rematch in just five days from the last time.

They both seemed pretty intense yesterday, but are you feeling well?

Between the sights, Leonora, sitting on the throne, questioned Ling Ji and Miliez downstairs.

Though the number of people in the room has decreased slightly since Ling Ji and the others first visited, many demons still gather, starting with the face of the Four Heavenly Kings such as Renalve, Victor and Ijid, who have been providing magic instruction to Ling Ji for the past few days.

Their aim, of course, is to see Linge and Miliers rematch.

"Stop talking weird, Your Majesty!

I was just giving magic instruction normally!

"That's right, Mr. Leonora.

Then it's like... "

Reiji and Miliez argue with Leonora blushing in her mouth.

Indeed, if a stranger hears Leonora's words, it can be misleading as if the two were in agreement.

Especially since she's daring to make the two of us aware of each other after figuring it out, which is bad in nature.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Well, as far as that goes, you don't seem to have a problem with your health. "

I could also make a story of the two blushing, but Leonora, who decided that she was going to be a snake if she went any further, decided to stop blushing and move on.

"Let's get started, then.

As for the rules, it's good to be with you last time. "

"Yes, Your Majesty"

"Okay."

◆ ◆ ◆

Just like the last time, Ling Ji and Miliers confront each other using the wide space between the sights.

The audience watched as they wrapped it far enough away not to eat the entanglement, and Leonora stood at its head down from the throne.

If I were to dare mention something different from the last time, would it be that Miliers has deployed Flame Marionette from the beginning?

He must have been wary of being hit first at the same time as the signal of initiation because his palm was known to Ling Ji.

Ling Ji, on the other hand, holds only his right hand without pulling out two swords and sets his left hand in a freehand state.

"Are you ready?

So... here we go!

Leonora waves down and signals the start.

Ling Ji stepped in with the signal the other day at the game, but this time they both stared at each other without moving quickly.

"What's up? You're not coming in here like you did before?

"If you stick it straight into that marionette, it'll just burn you badly.

Besides, it wouldn't make sense if you didn't use the magic you taught me around the corner here. "

When Ling Ji said so, he raised his left hand towards Miliers.

With the chant, multiple ice cubes about the size of a person's head are emitted, flying with flaming people-shaped eyes.

The ice mass melted at the heat of Flame Marionette, becoming massive amounts of water and descending into the human form.

"Is there water in the fire?

It's not a mistake... "

Miliers was hit with an attribute that could be described as a weakness, but the condition remained calm and there was no upset.

"Sweet"

The momentum of the flames is tremendous, and massive amounts of water evaporate in an instant.

Flame Marionette was stuck intact without even a small shake.

"Your talent for magic mastery is a threat. I'll admit it.

I never imagined that in just four days I would master the four attributes of groundwater fire-style at the operational level.

However, it is difficult to think of them as equivalent to us at the actual level. "

All I'm saying now is it's my turn, and Miliers is releasing flamebullets just like he did in the game earlier.

Ling Ji tries to cut it with the wind and intercept it, but he strikes it off with a sword without completely dropping it.

"Master Renalve would have struck everything down.

Master Victor was damaged by Marionette in the first attack.

Mr. Ijid can overwhelm multiple golems in numbers.

But you can't do any of that... no?

"No, it's not"

"Being able to manipulate more than one attribute is an advantage, but if you're less proficient at it, it doesn't extend to the person who stuck one attribute.

Or if you continue to grow in strength, you may be able to surpass it, but it's not now. "

With that word he told Kippari, Miliers takes a step forward.

It's just one step, but it makes an important point that Milieus, who basically doesn't move around, came forward with a style of combat.

Miliers, who stated her own advantage to cut Ling Ji's will, but not that she is in fact an overwhelming advantage.

Miliers' basic style of combat is to use an unattainable marionette as a wall and overwhelm him from a distance with high-firepower fire magic, but Ling Ji prevented Miliers from attacking him earlier, even if he was incomplete.

If you keep repeating this, you may win, but if it becomes a lasting battle, it's a delicate line which runs out of health and magic first.

Therefore, every marionette advances forward and crushes. That was Miliers' conclusion.

Ling Ji, on the other hand, has not been able to foresee until such Miliers' thoughts, but naturally realized that Marionette had to think about responding with the intimidation caused by moving forward a step earlier.

Even if we stay in melee, we just get burned by a marionette that doesn't work, and we know from our last experience that it's hard to do it over and target Miliers if we don't do something about the marionette.

About the magic battle, I know the minutes are bad.

I tried water magic earlier but found that I couldn't break the marionette, and ground magic is hard to use in this place indoors. You'll be able to cleave the marionette with wind magic, but you'll be back on track just as quickly as you would if you slashed it with a sword.

Of course, the opponent is a mass of flames, so bumping fire magic just adds momentum to the opponent.

(No, wait...?

At first glance, Ling Ji pointed his left hand at Marionette, just as he had done earlier.

Miliers, who was moving forward, saw it and stopped walking vigilantly.

What I unleashed earlier was ice cubes, but now a flame similar to that unleashed by Miliers is unleashed from Ling Ji's left hand, flying at high speeds towards Marionette.

"What? Have you lost your mind because you didn't win?

No matter how many flames you hit on the flames, it doesn't do much good.

If you hit an overwhelmingly stronger flame than Marionette's firepower. Or you could smash it and scatter it, or you could collapse with the wind curled by the flame, but that's also impossible with Reiji's skill.

In fact, the flames unleashed by Ling Ji were swallowed up by Marionette's body and, conversely, began to gain that momentum.

But despite that, Ling Ji keeps firing one flame after another.

"Come on...... come on!?

Miliez, who had a frustrating look at Ling Ji's behavior, suddenly distorted his face.

Neither herself nor Marionette saw it. Nothing has changed on her eyes, and she doesn't know what happened from the audience around her.

"No way......"

A moment of flashing Miliers, but immediately held his hand forward to increase his concentration.

The reason Miliers was upset earlier, that's because of her shaky control over Marionette.

Flame Marionette solidifies the flames created by fire magic into human shapes by magic. However, because of the tolerances in its control, it dares to suppress the flames so that they do not become too large. Earlier, when Ling Ji threw in the flame, he also lowered his output so that the overall firepower would fit to a certain degree.

But what Ling Ji threw in was the flame created by his magic.

While swallowed up and fed by marionettes, it has interfered in trying to take away its control.

"Smart imitation.

Yes, it's only a clever imitation. No matter how challenging Ling Ji is, he can't take control of Miliers' marionette.

If Miliers raises the output, it becomes a range of errors such as the influence of Ling Ji's magic power.

However, it is Miliers who fixes the marionette to its present form, and if the total amount of flame exceeds the allowable amount, the configuration cannot be maintained.

If the output is raised, the configuration cannot be maintained, and if nothing is done or the output is lowered, Ling Ji's interference is activated.

If you stand over there, Milieus will be annoyed by troublesome conditions such as not standing here, but even more troublesome things will happen there.

Ling Ji stabbed the sword in his hand on the floor and began to unleash another magic with his open right hand.

Target Miliers directly like arcing from above with ice cubes, or slash and tear the marionette with wind magic.

All of them are only to the extent that they can be dealt with without any difficulty if they are normal.

But it's the worst chase to scratch concentration for Miliers, who was trying to hold back interference from Ling Ji with a marginal critical output that could maintain the configuration.

"Huh? Huh?

Miliez tries to control the marionette even as he deals with an attack from Ling Ji desperately by chewing on his lips.

I guess it was thanks to her out-of-popularity talent and workout that kept her for a few minutes.

But it also eventually turned to its limits.

We intercepted one of the ice cubes. There, that hit her from the top. At that moment, the interruption of concentration for only a moment swayed the magic that had kept the marionette...... bursting.

That looked the same as what she had done herself during the other day's game with Ling Ji. If there is anything different, it is that Ling Ji, who was involved in that space-time without cutting out, is in a remote position this time, and it is only Miliers who was involved. And the other thing is, unlike the last time I did it on my own volition, Miliers didn't have a mind of his own.

"Khaaaaahhhh!?

Blew by the strong wind pressure caused by the blowing flames, Miliers was slammed to the floor.

Ling Ji, on the other hand, took the sword he stabbed on the floor the moment Marionette reached criticality and flew forward shortly after its rupture.

"Ugh..."

Miliess tries to wake herself up with her hands on the floor in general pain.

But something poked near his neck before he got up.

When I twisted my neck and saw it stretching, there was Ling Ji's figure, and what was being poked at was the sword he had in his right hand.

"That's it!

Leonora's voice rose from a distance announcing the end of the game.
