I Became the Strongest With The Failure Frame【Abnormal State Skill】As I Devastated Everything Chapter 113

Chapter 113

I called out towards Pigimaru .

[Once again, connect with my body . ]

[Pii! …Pii?]

Hmm?

[What is it?]

[Pii… Pinyyyuuu…]

His cries sound exhausted .

[Perhaps… You can’t do it anymore?]

[Pii… Piinyyiii…]

I still have enough MP remaining .

However, it seems that the burden on Pigimaru’s body is more than I had expected .

Well, this is the first time we have tried using that ability consecutively .

That connection uses up an idiotic amount of MP .

My MP is also steadily decreasing while I’m connected with him .

That’s why I temporarily disconnected my connection with him earlier…

[My bad… I’ve never thought about the burden it may have on your body . ]

There’s also some burden on my own body .

I should have thought that Pigimaru might also be bearing the same burden .

However, Pigimaru hasn’t shown any signs of fatigue at all before .

[It was my fault that I failed to notice . ]

[Pii!? Piyuyuyuuuu~!]

His cries sound like he’s trying to frantically defend me .

Pigimaru cries apologetically .

[Pinyuunyuuu…]

[Don’t worry about it . I’m not going to blame nor get angry at you . It’s my mistake that I a.s.sumed that as long as I have MP, I could subsequently use this ability even after using it for a short time . ]

[It seems there are also some things you weren’t able to antic.i.p.ate . ]

Eve called out .

When I looked back at her, I could also see Seras following behind her .

I feel like I’ve already told Eve and the others about the situation but…

[My apologies . She said she wants to talk to you . ]

There is also Liz standing next to Seras .

Eve steps forward .

[I’ve heard of the situation . I’ll help you out too . ]

[It’s okay . I’ll do it together with Seras . ]

[Seras looks tired though . ]

Seras must have been quite nervous while interacting with Muaji .

She could take some short rest after I invoked on her .

However, Seras still hardly had enough sleep .

In her case, it would be really difficult for her to get rid of her fatigue .

[I will take the role of being the one in front and protecting you . I am full of vitality and strength now . Most of all— I’m sorry that I’ve let the both of you fight all by yourselves . ]

I started thinking about it in another way .

She’s the strongest Blood Champion .

The extremely fatigued Seras .

I planned on having Eve work more later but…

[Then, I’ll be relying on you . ]

[Leave it to me . ]

[However, if you, our guide so that we could reach the witch were to die, then we would also take our hands off the child . As long as you understand that, then you could fight all you want . ]

[So you’re saying that if I feel like I’m disadvantaged against them, I could freely pull back huh?]

[It’s great that you could quickly understand . Then, Seras would be protecting Liz . ]

[Understood . I’ll leave him to you, Eve . ]

[Umu . You don’t have any problem with that, Touka?]

[Maybe . ]

I couldn’t use the super-ranged attacks using the connection with Pigimaru .

However, I could use my Abnormal State Skills without any problem .

It’s not like we’re fighting someone like the Five Dragon Warriors .

I’ve also had corrections with my status after the level ups I had .

[U- Umm…]

Liz timidly said .

Bending down so that her face was in front of Liz’s face, Seras asked .

[What is it?]

[If you think it’s necessary to also have Seras-sama’s power, you shouldn’t worry about me and fight for Touka-sama . ]

[Liz…?]

[I know that I can’t do anything even when I try my best while we’re going to the witch’s home… And that the non-combatant me would just become a burden for everyone…]

Closing her eyes, Liz squeezes both of her hands in front of her chest .

[I don’t like the thought that… Big Sister and Touka-sama are in danger just for me… . ]

Seras looks at her gently .

She pats Liz on her shoulder .

[I understand . Thank you for your consideration . ]

Is it the result of Liz’s determination and feelings?

Seras didn’t refuse her offer .

I’ve always thought she was just a child .

On the other hand though, Eve looks quite worried .

For Eve, LIz’s personal safety must have been her priority .

I whispered at her .

[Ah, even though she said that, it’s not like Seras would just abandon Liz defenselessly and rush out in front of the battle . You don’t have to worry . ]

Afterwards, I started giving out instructions .

Seras would be taking Liz a little further into the forest .

Eve and I would intercept them here .

To accomplish my plan, it would be necessary that we completely annihilate all of the people in the first team .

In short, I want to deal with them all together .

We should avoid being dragged into a melee battle in the forest as much as possible .

The probability that we may lose sight of some and they escape might increase if that were to happen .

If that’s the case, it would be better for us to intercept them here .

[I will act as a decoy and attract their attention . Touka would be hiding beneath the shadows of those bushes . If they were to come within your range, you should paralyze them with your aforementioned ability . ]

I took that plan .

The enemies’ aim is Eve Speed .

If you think about it, Eve would be really suitable as a decoy .

[Which of the Duke’s private army should I look out for?]

[The Duke’s Imperial Guards were the people who held the most ability within his private army . If I were to point out someone among them, it would probably be the captain Costello . ]

[Is he strong?]

[It’s rumored that he’s the second strongest person in Monroy after the Dragonslayer . I’ve heard that he used to be a member of the Magic Knights . ]

I don’t really know how strong the Dragonslayer is though .

[If that were to be compared to Eve Speed?]

[There were many people who wanted him to fight me just to know who was stronger between us two . However, I haven’t been able to cross swords with him . That’s why I don’t know how strong he really is . ]

[So, it’s unknown huh…]

[Umu . However, I haven’t seen him along with the first team when they were pa.s.sing by— Hmm?]

Eve’s ears twitched .

She then looks towards the back .

The opposite direction from where the first team is coming from .

There were lights approaching from that direction .

[The third team huh…]

I spoke out my guess .

[They may have been walking slowly until now . However, they’ve increased their pace after they saw the light that Seras released . ]

The first team was eager for achievements .

Everyone wanted to be the first one to find Eve and make an achievement for themselves .

Now then, is there anyone who wouldn’t rush after something if they could get an achievement from doing that?

They would become someone who received merits .

[It’s possible that even the Duke himself is mixed in along with the third team . ]

In terms of their speed and distance…

The first team who is returning back would be faster to reach this place .

As these two squadrons join and increase in number, the probability that someone may be able to escape may increase again .

[Let’s go crush one of them first before the other . First, we’ll go crush the first team . ]

Eve unsheathes her sword .

[Understood . ]

[If it’s possible, don’t let a single one of them escape . Therefore, I want you to attract their attention as much as possible before engaging against them . Well, only if you can do it . ]

[Just see for yourself . ]

We’ve grasped how much people the first team had when they pa.s.sed by earlier .

At the time they were pa.s.sing by, the other soldiers who had been searching in the forest also joined up with them .

Therefore, that should have been all of their members that were coming .

[Did you figure out how many people there were in the first team that was present now?]

Eve started concentrating .

After just a moment…

[Got it . ]

Eve informed me of their numbers .

It matches the number of people they had when we first recorded .

They didn’t divide their squad just like Muaji did .

It seems to be a group of idiotically honest people who plunges on everything in their path .

[Thank you . ]

The sounds of hooves began to get even louder .

The first team finally arrives .

[We’ve finally found you, Eve Speed! It must have been quite regretful! We’ve already seen through your decoy! You can’t escape from us!]

They must have rushed back in a hurry after these fellows saw that light .

Therefore, he couldn’t really say something like they’ve seen through it .

Moreover, they didn’t even mention that light at all .

[T- That is!]

[Muu!? Those people collapsed over there… Are those the fellows from As.h.i.+nto!? Fu— Fuhahaha! In the end, your sorceries were nothing but a sham! Well, I’ve never liked those people in the first place!]

[The Duke was very angry! If we were to present that were-leopard’s unsightly body to the Duke, the Duke would certainly get delighted!]

[Umu! Things have been rolling in the right direction for us! We’re not going to let the heads of those Imperial Guard fellows to get any bigger!]

Eve remained silent .

[Hahahaha! What’s wrong!? Did you lose your will to fight after you saw our number!?]

The leading man approached Eve while riding his horse .

The leading man then brandished his sword .

[I’ll be taking your head!!!]

Alright .

All of them were finally within my range .

To make sure that all of them were within my range, I jumped out of the shadows of the bushes while sticking out my hand .

[]

[—-Uooo… . !?]

The private army and their horses suddenly stops .

The leading man became paralyzed while his sword was raised .

The other members of the private army also stopped due to paralysis .

They looked like they were sewed on the ground .

[Wha… I can’t move…?]

[Who is… . that man…?]

I could see the dismay on everyone’s faces .

[]

Screams began resounding around the area as I invoked poison on the private army .

Range, Area of Effect and Affinity .

The trusty combo of paralysis and poison is really convenient for me .

[Touka . ]

Eve called out to me .

[Ah, I know . ]

That’s right— It’s not over yet .

I could hear the sound of hooves striking the ground from another direction .

And, it’s getting nearer .

They were about to arrive soon .

The third team .

[They’re here . ]

Eve said .

[There’s no escape anymore, you ungrateful sub-human! Running back to the forest would just be useless, useless, useless! You can’t escape anymore! You thought you could make a fool of me!? You thought you could get away from this Duke Zuan!?]

[Duke Zuan . ]

Baring her fangs, Eve let out a low beastly growl .
