296 New 【Magic Enchanted Armament】

Yuma and Rui shielded their eyes from the dazzling light. Lightning ran rampant around them, attacking the “Fish-men” as if it were alive.

“What is that…?”

Yuma narrowed his eyes, trying to assess the situation.
The “Fish-men” struck by the lightning turned into sand in an instant. Even though it was 【Lightning】 magic, which is strong against 【Water】, the power was tremendous.
The lightning continued to race around, taking on the form of a Dragon.
Looking closely, there was something on the Dragon’s head. It looked like a pointed piece of metal, but he couldn’t quite make it out.
The lightning wrapped around the metal, forming the shape of the “Dragon.”
There wasn’t just one Lightning Dragon, but many. They began to rise into the air, now heading towards the Sea Serpent.
The Great Serpent opened its mouth and countered with a water breath.
But the “Lightning Dragon” easily dodged the attack and charged at the Sea Serpent.
It was an abnormal sight, like a Dragon devouring a Dragon.
The Sea Serpent let out a deathly shriek and collapsed on the spot, turning into sand.
Rui and Yuma could only gape, unable to do anything but watch.
The “Lightning Dragon” that had killed the Sea Serpent disappeared, but the metal-like objects floated up and ascended into the sky.
There were six of them. What are those? Yuma wondered, looking up at the sky with a puzzled expression.
Something was floating in the sky. Squinting, he could see that it was a long, large spear.
And someone was riding on top of that spear. The only person in the world who would do something like this was probably him.

“Akito!”

As Yuma shouted, the giant spear slowly descended. Unbelievable, but it was definitely floating in the air.
When it reached about five meters above the ground, Akito jumped off, saying, “Yo.”
He landed with a puff of dust, a familiar face grinning. Yuma and Rui immediately rushed over.

“I’m glad, Akito! You got a new weapon!”

To Rui’s words, Akito said, “Well, yeah,” scratching his nose sheepishly.
The spear that had been floating in the air crackled with electricity as it stood upright, settling into Akito’s hand.

“That’s…”

Yuma’s eyes widened. The spear Akito was holding—its shape was quite different from the Gae Bolg he had used before.
There was a round Ring-like object at the tip.
It was like a Tin staff. The spearhead was attached to that Ring, but there wasn’t just one spearhead.
There were three spearheads each on the left and right sides of the Ring. Those were the parts that had been flying around earlier.
Special decorations were applied to the center of the shaft, and three Yellow Diamonds could be seen. A 【Magic Enchanted Armament】 using multiple Magic Gems.
There was no doubt that advanced technology was used.

“That’s amazing. Anik-san made that for you, right? It’s several times stronger than the old Gae Bolg, isn’t it?”

When Yuma said admiringly, Akito was in high spirits, saying, “Right, right?”

“This was made by applying the weapon that Anik’s old man used to use! These six spearheads on the left and right fly around freely. With this, you can chase down and kill any target, isn’t it ruthless?”

Akito grinned proudly. Certainly, the fan-shaped 【Magic Enchanted Armament】 that Anik used had countless feather-like metals flying around, attacking Monsters.
Was the technology used in the weapon that Akito uses?
However, Yuma had something even more concerning.

“Akito! Weren’t you floating in the sky? And how did you get to England?”

Come to think of it, it was a mystery how Akito had come to England. Yuma and the others had barely arrived by ship.
If Akito had also come by ship, it felt a little too fast.

“What, something like that’s easy! I flew all the way here.”
“Eh?”

Yuma and Rui’s voices overlapped. Flew? Could it be that he rode on that spear?
Akito laughed with a fufufu as he held out the spear in front of him.

“This spear floats in the air due to magnetic repulsion and can move as it is. Well, I don’t really understand the detailed theory, but the old man boasted, ‘This is my masterpiece!’ Although the Magical Power consumption is intense when flying.”

Akito said it as if it were nothing, but wasn’t that an outrageous thing? He had never heard of a 【Magic Enchanted Armament】 that could fly in the sky.

“That’s so amazing! So, did you give that weapon a new name?”

When Rui asked with sparkling eyes, Akito puffed out his chest and said, “Of course!”

“This guy’s name is, 【Gae Bolg Mark II】! How about it, cool, right?”

Yuma and Rui thought in their hearts, “Lame,” but didn’t say it out loud.
Barely, only Rui said, “…It’s cool,” saying something she didn’t mean.

“That’s right, that’s right, I have something that I’m keeping from Anik’s old man! Let’s see…”

Akito put down the large backpack he was carrying and rummaged through it. “This is it, this is it,” he said, taking out a short Katana. Would you call it a Wakizashi?

“This is a weapon that the old man made for Rui. Well, it seems like he couldn’t make fine adjustments to match Rui, so he doesn’t know if it’s easy to use or not. But it can be used as a sub-weapon, right?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Thank you.”

Rui happily accepted the Katana and immediately drew it.
A beautiful blade. This one also had three ‘Red Diamonds’ used in the handle. Rui’s expression became serious, and she poured Magical Power into the Katana.
Flames flickered on the blade. Yuma, who was next to her, reflexively leaned back.
Even though it was a short sword, he felt tremendous Magical Power. Yuma could tell that it was a very good Katana. Rui was satisfied and sheathed the short Katana.

“Yeah, I like it. I have to thank Anik-san when I see him next time.”
“That’s right. Let’s go to India again when this journey is over. There are a lot of people who have helped us.”

Akito said, laughing cheerfully. In front of such Akito, Yuma held out both hands.

“What?”
“What do you mean, ‘What?’ What about my share? If you made a weapon for Rui, there’s one for me too, right?”
“There’s nothing for you.”
“Eh!?”

Yuma was surprised and froze.

“You have that weird weapon, so that’s enough, right? We’re ordinary humans, so we need to enhance our weapons. Right, Rui?”
“That’s right.”

Rui nodded with a half-smile.

“What! You’re saying I’m not human! I’m an ordinary human too if I don’t transform! That’s called discrimination—”

While Yuma was indignant, the two walked away.

“First of all, I’ll explain the current situation.”
“That’s right. Let’s find a place where we can settle down and talk.”

Yuma chased after the two who were leaving as if it were natural, shouting, “Wait a minute!”
