Chapter 639

I could see the evil energy of Zelos Reed, which continued to receive the ray of light, rapidly diminishing.

He seems to be using more than what Romio could supply using the Sacrament of the Evil God.

The shards of evil energy that scattered as his shield of evil energy and the rays of light collided against each other gradually increased in intensity.

「Fran! Let’s launch our attack in thirty seconds!」

「Okay!」

Shouted Sierra to her, he then closed his eyes and began to concentrate as if he was meditating. He was defenseless right now.

But he must have believed that Zelos Reed would protect him.

(We’ll do the same)

『…It can’t be helped』

We were past the point where I could tell her not to be reckless. However, the time for us to be reckless has come.

(Let’s put all of our might in this attack)

『All of our might…?』

(Nn. All of it. Urushi)

(Woof!)

Fran and Urushi then soared high to the sky at full speed. We’d have to launch our attack in thirty seconds, so there was no time to hesitate.

It may seem like a short time, but that was the limit of what Zelos Reed could withstand its attack.

「Urushi, let’s do that again!」

「Woof!」

Fran was going to do that Wolf-Style Sword Drawing Technique again. I wonder how much damage could be reduced by using our life magic now…

At Fran’s words, Urushi barked happily. There was not a hint of reluctance in his voice. He must be truly happy to be of use to Fran.

(Master, can you use That?)

『Of course』

What she was asking me to use was the trump card that I’d acquired as a result of my training. Well, it was not so special that I could call it a “trump card” though.

It only increases my attack power for a short time by a few levels at the expense of my durability.

To put it simply, I’d put all my magic power into my sword body. That was all.

My current MP stats were over 10,000 now. My magic conductivity was also SS-. So, my efficiency of using magic would be increased by 340%.

In our current situation, If I used what was left of my current magic power――

《Master’s base attack power will be over 35,000》

That was right. To put it bluntly, it was a superb attack power. Well, it also comes with a high risk.

After all, the burden would completely exceed the strength of my sword body. I tried it a lot in the Plains of the Demon Wolf, and it seemed that if I used more than 2000 magic power, various backlashes would appear.

At first, my durability would decrease on each swing, and as I increase the amount of magic power into my sword body, my durability value would begin to decrease even without doing anything.

Once it exceeded 10,000, the durability of my sword body would decrease at an unbelievable rate of 100 in 1 second. In addition, it was not uncommon for me to lose 1000 or 2000 durability value with just one light swing.

If the damage from using Heaven Judgement and Sword God Transformation were added to that, I would not even last a minute. No, even a dozen seconds might be dangerous for me.

Still, if Fran wanted to do it, I couldn’t help but do it.

We were going to use Wolf-Style Sword Drawing Technique + my Magic Power Overload + Sword God Transformation. It was probably the most powerful attack we could unleash right now.

「Fuuuh」

「Grrrr」

Fran and Urushi then quietly kneaded their magic and made their preparations steadily. And of course, I did the same.

『I’m gonna need Announcer-san’s support too』

《Understood》

『By the way, you’re able to freely talk now?』

《With the increase in rank of the individual named Master, I have succeeded in recovering a small part for action》

I guess, in other words, Announcer-san’s abilities were slightly restored as I leveled up.

《Synchronizing the timing of attack with the individual named Sierra. Countdown, 17, 16, 15――》

We could leave the count to Announcer-san. With this, our attack timing was gonna be perfect.

But at this late in our fight, I was wondering about something.

I wonder if I should use Potential Release.

I’d never had the experience of combining Magic Power Overload and Potential Release before. So, I was not sure if I should use it or not, but…

《11, 10――》

Now that I’d been shown the tremendous power of the Great Magic Beast, I was not going to spare any effort. I was going to attack it with all my might. But that didn’t mean I was going to sacrifice myself in the process.

『Fran gonna be sad if that happens 』

《81% chance of dealing more than the predicted damage to the Great Magic Beast without using Potential Release》

『What if I use the Potential Release?』

《99% chance of dealing more than the predicted damage to the Great Magic Beast. However, the individual named Master will be left severely damaged, and his abilities will be severely reduced for the next 178 days》

『I see…』

《Also, 15% chance of the individual named Master going to be destroyed》

That was the worst-case scenario…

《7, 6――》

『I shouldn’t use the Potential Release then…?』

《Yes. It is recommended to refrain from using it》

『Well, okay』

But it was just right after I had decided not to use my Potential Release.

「There seem to be a bit of disconnection in your magic line」

『Rhyn!』

It was Rhyn who suddenly appeared.

《4, 3――》

Rhyn then touched my sword body, then I could feel magic power flowing into me. I was grateful for the slightest bit of it now.

But right after that, an unexpected situation arises.

《Suggestion. It is now recommended to use the Potential Release》

『Huh?』

Said Announcer-san just before we launched our attack.

『Eh? What do you mean?』

Is it because of Rhyn? What has she done to me?

《Using it was the better choice for the individual named Master and the individual named Fran》

『Wha, why…』

《2, 1――》

I-it was the time! But aside from me, why was it the better choice for Fran? Anyway, we’d use it if Announcer-san said so!

『Aaaah! Potential Release―!』

《0》

「Wooof!」

「Haaaa!」

Then, Fran turned into a shooting star again.
