Overlimit Skill Holder (Web Novel JP)

Chapter Dragon and Ogre, Sin and Blame (1/79) 26: Overlimit Skill Holder Vol 5



However, the things I saw and thought about in those few moments were a lot.

The first thing I saw was Mimino-san. Mimino-san appeared next to the tall knight from the Saint Knight Kingdom—it felt like she emerged out of thin air—and showed me a few small bottles.

While thinking about how to save Mimino-san or how she appeared out of nowhere, I immediately realized what those bottles were.

It was just a guess. But that was the only thing that made sense.

That’s why I spread my hands and activated magic with all my mana.

【Light magic】.

It is the opposite of【Dark Magic】. And it should be the most suitable magic to stop the wedges.

However, the problem was that my mana cannot match up to End Fang’s enormous mana.

But Mimino-san’s bottle solves that.

「Reiji-kun!!」

It has only been a while since I last saw Mimino-san, but I felt very nostalgic. And she believed in me as soon as we reunited – she believed that I would be able to do it, and tossed the bottles.

The sensation of entirely losing mana ran through my body as the magic was activated.

「Glint Aurora!!」

A curtain of light appeared around the rockets.

As soon as the tip of the【Dark Magic】touched the light, it disappeared.

My mana was much higher than that of a general mage, partly because I have absorbed the skill orb of【Increased Mana Quantity】. But still, I was only able to erase one-fifth of the rockets at most.

The curtain of light disappeared in the same way the darkness disappeared, and eventually a hole opened up.

『Hopeless Struggle!』

I heard the mediator’s triumphant cry.

Of course. The mediator’s magic cannot be prevented with a single thin curtain.

Immediately, the curtain shattered and the wedges of darkness popped out.

Palin. Palin. Palin. Palin.

Mimino-san’s bottles that drew an arc through the air and broke near my feet. It scattered purple phosphorescence.

At the same time, as many curtains as the number of cracked bottles appeared, as if fast-forwarding a video.

「Even if it is impossible with one curtain, we can just increase them.」

『——Wha!?』

It was Mimino-san’s special “Dupe Potion”. A ridiculous elixir that regenerates a recently activated magic.

Mimino-san used this elixir thinking that I would solve this situation with magic.

The surroundings became dazzlingly bright immediately.

And the【Dark Magic】continuously hit the curtains and disappeared.

The amount of light soon decreased. And when the last darkness disappeared, only one of the light curtains remained, and it too disappeared soon.

「Fuu…」

I fell to my knees on the spot, but I managed to hold onto my consciousness.

「Reiji-kun!」

「Uwaa!?」

Mimino-san jumped in from the side and hugged me. Causing me to fall to the ground, after all.

「Reiji-kun!? The real Reiji-kun!?」

「Y-Yes…」

「I’m glad… I’m so glad that you are alive…」

Mimino-san burst into tears while on top of me. I can’t help but be interested about the mysterious optical camouflage cloak which hid most of her body, but that’s besides the point.

『Wh-Wh-Wh-What The Hell Are You, Bastard…!』

Ah, we are still in the middle of a battle.

I stood up while having Mimino-san move aside, and looked up at the mediator.

『Child Of Disaster, As Expected, I Must Kill You First!』

The black flames merged together to form a human figure and came out of End Fang. End Fang was too weak to even stand and fell on the spot.

A Mithril plate mail appeared out of nowhere and clad the mediator.

The mediator is strong even by itself.

Can I keep fighting in a state with zero mana?

「…Kill my little brother? What a joke. You’re the one who will die.」

I heard a voice from behind.

「Lark!? What are you doing here!?」

Lark, who should have withdrawn from the front line, was here.

Her clothes were tattered as before, but her steps were firm.

「The noble young lady healed me, with that thing called “Magic Eye of Inspire”. Though, she seems to have overused her power and collapsed.」

「Eh? Eh? Lady Eva?」

Looking through【World Ruler】, it was true that Lark had recovered her power.

「Non healed me up, so I am also back on the front line.」

Although his attire was dirty here and there, Dante-san, carrying a large shield, was also there.

「A knight cannot run away after being protected.」

The tall knight from Saint Knight Kingdom came and stood in front of me.

「Oi, Reiji. I have things to talk about with you later, so don’t run away this time. I have a ton of debt to pay back to that black bastard, so I’m gonna take care of him first.」

Grenjido-sama also headed for the mediator with a spare spear in hand.

Moreover, knights and soldiers started gathering again one after another.

With this many, even the mediator can’t do much.

『…………』

However, the mediator was silent.

I even felt “confidence” from him.

(Why? Is it because he has other bodies? Or is there something else—)

The mediator glanced up at the sky.

At the Red Gate.

「Ah–」

The worst case scenario.

I glimpsed a huge black shadow behind the gate.

「The next one is coming!!」

I raised my voice.

The mediator was trying to bring in the next giant here.

「Lark! Please take care of the mediator!」

「That was what I intended to do from the beginning. So what are you… eh, where are you going little brother?」

I started running towards the Red Gate.

The crack must be closed before the next giant comes out.

However, as soon as I started running, I couldn’t put any power into my knees. I used too much mana.

「Reiji-kun, take this! It’s a medicine that restores physical strength and mana!」

「Thank you!」

As expected, Mimino-san understood me. I took off the lid of the small bottle that Mimino-san tossed at me and poured a sweet, lukewarm liquid into my mouth. The inside of my stomach felt hot and strength surged through my body.

「Let’s go!」

I started running. Coupled with【Sprinting】, my speed exceeded the human limit.

I took out the 12-star skill orb【World Alliance】out of my tool bag.

I should be able to do something with this.

「Please let me make it in time!!!」
