Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus 28 Episode 28 "I Asked For Cooperation From Outside Because

The parade to commorate the search for the magic sword will be held over three days.

On the first day, the Count swore to the king's statue in the center of town that he would find the sword, and everyone cheered him on.

On the second day, the Count's traveling entertainers paraded through the town, and there were many food stalls and festivities.

On the third day, the entrance of the dungeon is scheduled to be opened to the public to use magic to detect the magic sword at the entrance of the dungeon... but I don't want to accompany them to that point. We decided to leave town before dawn on the second day.

We haven't seen the parade. However, rumor has it that Tanaka and the deputy bishop of Argis, wearing a collar, hid in the dungeon as a dewdrop for everyone.

Rumor has it that instead of getting new equipnt, Tanaka made a 'contract' to find a magic sword.

I wonder how far you'll have to go to make multiple contracts to get your mind off of it. ...... Stay strong, Tanaka.

I don't care about Deputy Bishop Argis.

We said goodbye to the tool shop we were hiding in and left the town.

There were several routes from tekal to the port city of Irgafa.

We chose a slightly circuitous route through the lake area.

There are hot springs on the way, which is the main reason for this course.

Also, there is a big river along the road, and it is said that big fish co to the river at this ti of the year. It is said that the fish is the specialty of the hot spring town.

Since we worked too much for a while, we decided to take a leisurely trip to Ilgafa.

We left tekal at dawn, a few hours later.

We are resting by a swamp along the road.

There are lots of puddles and tall trees around.

I was boiling water and making a cup of tea, and eating so leftover bread and dried at from the morning.

A few riders appeared in front of us.

'Excuse us from our rest. This is Count Rigilta.

There were eleven of them. Eight warriors in armor and two wizards in robes.

At the head of them was a man with a long beard.

He wore a helt with twisted horns. They wore armor similar to that of Tanaka-Koga. Only one was on a large white horse, astride a saddle with a flying dragon emblem on it.

I recognized him at a glance.

This is Count Rigilta, head of the Aristocracy Guild.

I grabbed the magic sword I kept in my bag.

Cecil is behind . Laetitia is standing next to , protecting Aine behind .

''How is everyone in the 'Commoner's Guild' doing? They were all very skilled, weren't they? Can we reach the lower levels of the dungeon with the magic sword?

Aine mumbled, and the adventurers all looked away from her.

Instead, the Count stepped in front of us.

''I will ask you to hand over Aine Clunet.

What is this guy talking about?

''The Search for the Demon Sword has attracted the attention of His Majesty the King. You'll remain under our supervision until everything is settled. We can't afford to have him say unnecessary things in other towns.

We don't care about you.

What does it matter to what you guys think?

No. I don't think it's any of your business what we think.

At my line, the Count shrugged his shoulders.

''It's a sha that we're being polite and not ...... sincere.

Count Rigilta held his forehead and shook his head.

'Can you tell where there is courtesy and where there is sincerity?

Huh, I don't bla them. They were all going to keep their mouths shut anyway.

Uh, he's not listening to . He pretends to be listening, though.

The Count silently raised his hand.

On cue, the adventurers dismounted from their horses.

This is near a lake. There are wet dirt and puddles all around us. It's hard to move on a horse.

The enemy's vanguard was a group of swordsn in full armor. Two wizards in the back.

The Earl hid in the middle of the adventurers.

We back away, kicking the mud noisily. We'll keep our distance.

"What if they say you can't fight us?

As I said it, I grabbed Cecil's hand.

Cecil squeezes my hand back twice.

That's the signal that we're ready.

"There is no need to listen to idle threats. I'll shut my mouth for nothing...

Cecil, get it done!

"'Destroy My Enemy' - 'Arrow of Fire!

I thought the Count might co.

We were alerted. We had scouts out.

I knew they were close, so I also cast a spell.

If they don't listen to us, I'm going to have to disable them with my Ancient Fla Arrow!

thud thud thud thud thud thud

The magicians behind Cecil launch flaming arrows all at once.

But...

I've heard about your abilities from Tanaka-Coga and Deputy Bishop Argis.

"'Immaculate barrier, return fire to the void...' the anti-flashell.

Suddenly a translucent shield was born, catching an arrow of fire.

The wizard is laughing behind the count.

Anti-fla defense magic──.

"I know that you can keep firing vast amounts of flaming arrows in rapid succession and create weird light, I'd better be prepared for this...

...... Cecil, try a little harder.

Still a little far away...

Do do do do do do do do do do!

'Can't you see I'm saying it's useless! That's why you're so lowly!

The Count shouts.

Is this a waste of magic any more?

I make Cecil's 'Arrow of Fire' stop.

''That's a line from soone who stalks those lowly people!

Two wizards on the other side. The warriors even have a large shield.

It's going to be tough to push them through with just magic and swordplay.

This one has 11. There are 11 of us, and 4 of you. How could they possibly be a match for us?

The Count laughs, shaking the great sword on his back.

I knew you didn't notice.

Why are the horses cowering behind them?

Why did we bother to rest in this swamp?

"Can't you do any math for a nobleman? There are five and 24 in this party.

Five and ...... 24 bodies?

Look around you, Count. This is sli territory!

I held up the magic sword that was still in the bag.

''Request help from the slis! Bringer of Solution Creatures, level 1!

"Yes! Nushi-sama!

Slippery, slippery, slippery, slippery!

The puddles around you start to move.

If you've been paying attention, you've noticed that the puddle is strangely plodding and bobbing, and it's moving a little bit at a ti.

The ancient language fla arrows are a bluff to distract them.

It's not going to work, that's to be expected.

You should have let them hide behind the shields, blocking your own vision.

The green sli we enlisted is already surrounding them.

Green sli.

A low-level sli that lives in the forests and swamps.

They are docile and won't attack humans unless attacked.

It has a tendency to swallow small animals and feed on them.

Its size is about the size of a puddle.

It has a jelly-like body and absorbs small shocks.

It's very sticky, and once it sticks to sothing, it doesn't leave easily.

The number of slis you can use with Magic Sword Regina Brass' 'Mucus Creatures Rule (Sli Bringer)' is proportional to your level.

Apparently, a level 1 player can only control one sli.

But I was able to communicate with him, so I negotiated with that guy, and they agreed to give 4 dried at sticks for each one.

It was better that way. I don't like giving orders.

But as we were paying upfront for the dried at and explaining what we were going to do and asking if that was okay with us, the slis started to split up, so we couldn't tell which one we had gotten to cooperate with anymore.

According to the interpreter of Regina Brass, the sli's self-consciousness and its view of life and death are quite different from those of humans and other demons. As I recall, he said it was a swarm or a group ego.

Anyway, since you helped , from now on, let's not be hostile to the green sli. Yeah.

"S-su, s-sli!

Slippery and slippery

The Count screams.

He finally realizes that they were in the middle of a sea of sli.

The horses are smarter than him. They've found out and are running away quickly.

What do you think you're doing? ''Burn! Burn the sli and all that!

'Yes, sir! "Spirit, my enemy...

A jet-black arrow shot through the wizard's arm as he was about to say it.

The arrow of fire that was about to be born wavered and disappeared as if blown by the wind.

''──What is this?

''It's the Arrow of Fallen Power. ...... I got that magic power! It's my job to protect my collaborators!

Pointing his slender fingertips at the Count and the others, Cecil declared.

Magic occurs when spells and magic power are combined.

If the magic power is interrupted, even temporarily, while chanting, the spell that has lost its magic power becos just words.

No matter how amazing the system is, if you pull the power out of a machine while it's running, an error will occur. It's like that.

''Please give up and leave! ''Arrows of Fallen Power,'' ''Arrows of Fallen Power,'' ''Dalryoku no Yah!''

Cecil shoots out jet black arrows one after another.

It's not just a matter of ti before you get your hands on it.

It's not just a matter of ti before you get a chance to see it.

But the magic is drowned out before it can be activated.

Cecil, who has the blood of the demon race, has perfect magical control.

Sewing through the gaps between the warriors, the Arrow of Fallen Power pierces the wizards with precision. It takes away their magic power.

''d*mn! Don't push your luck! I'll take care of the sli and other stuff all at once. Activate! Swordplayーー

Too late!

splash

A tall tree grew in the swamp.

Rita jumped down from the branch and kicked the warrior in the back of the head, sword at the ready.

The warrior fell to his knees, his heavy helt blown off and his face exposed.

I knew exactly when you were approaching, so I'm ready. I knew you were coming, so I was ready. Do you think it's too much of a con job to co crashing down on while I'm talking?

Rita had been out of town the whole ti. It's a reconnaissance mission.

She's been standing guard in the trees ever since we got here.

Hiding in the branches and leaves, out of sight, out of mind, out of earshot.

'It was thanks to Rita that I was able to prepare The Ancient Language of the Arrow of Fire,'

'It was Nagi who told ! Defeating wizards is basic! After that, I'll stop moving and concentrate on the attack, you know!

Bun, as if to mock the sword-wielding warriors, Rita took a brilliant step while avoiding the sli. As it is, she strikes a blow - two blows to the mortar of the wizard who was hiding behind her companions. The blonde beast's fist blows the smaller wizards away.

Leticia follows suit.

Wielding a long-sort, she knocks off the weapons of the enemies who can't move.

''There are only a few enemies! Counterattack! Protect , yeah, yeah!

The Count is shouting away from his throat.

'What the hell is this, what the hell is this? What is going on here?

I don't know, Count. Besides, how do you expect us to intercept them in this state?

A swarm of green sli is tangled in the legs of the warriors and the Count. They are trying to get in through the cracks in their armor. And all around you is a sea of slippery sli.

Even if one piece of sli is weak, it's a different story when dozens of them rush in together.

The Count and his warriors can't walk. They can't run. They can't even change their stance.

''Kill them! We can kill them all!

I know that's not what you think. Eh, Aine Clunet?

At the sight of Aine advancing out with a broom in her hand, the warriors' movents ca to a halt.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, stay calm...

Poof, poof, poof!

Aine, standing in a sea of sli, stroked the warrior's face with her broomstick.

'It's okay, I won't kill you, okay? If you kill him, there will be no reason for Aine to lose the guild. You'll have to forgive , too, young man. So, sleep?

Aine swings the broomstick with a familiar hand.

One back and forth - the warrior's face, thumping.

Three back and forth──the warrior's mouth, drooling from the warrior's mouth.

9 back and forth──the warrior fell to his knees with a thud and lost consciousness.

That's all. That was the first unveiling of the 'mory sweeping' that Nah-kun gave .

A maid spins around with a broom in her hand.

The "mory Sweep" takes away the enemy's consciousness by rubbing their face with a cleaning tool.

No matter how skilled an adventurer is, there's no way he can deal with it on the first try.

'Aine is happy now. I'm a new Aine. So get out of my way.

What. What the hell is this?

Okay, this is confusing.

The only thing we showed Tanaka and Argis was Cecil's attack magic.

We didn't show them any other skills.

When you think you can overwhelm a group of people and they're allied with sli, counteracting magic, and even stunting your friends with a broomstick, that's when you start to panic.

I'm not going to feel sorry for you.

I don't have any sympathy for you. No blind spots! All of you must fortify your defenses!

The enemy changed their formation.

A dense formation with the Count at the center.

Swords pointed at the periter, so tightly packed that it couldn't have been more tightly packed.

That was the opportunity I had been waiting for.

'...... naa-kun.'

I know. I'm not killing Aine's forr associates.

If we kill him, we won't know why Aine gave up the Commoner's Guild.

The goal is to make sure that they can't ss with us.

I'm going to beat you up, and you're going to learn the risks of ssing with us.

Can you do that? ...... eh.

I shouldn't call you "Leggina Brass" in front of the Count and the others.

Well, I guess we'll just call her "Regina Brass"...

Can you? Leggy.

"...... What's that? The Nushies have given a new na: ......?

A breezy feeling cos from the sword.

'I will do as the Lord wishes. Cut down in the sack without letting out of the sheath.

Don't involve the sli.

"Be it sideways, my Lord. "The aftermath alone can withstand the sli's elasticity.

...... Got it.

I grabbed the Magic Sword Regina Brass and the Magic Sword Reggie.

What are you going to do? Wait! I understand. I'm not going to imprison Aine-Curnette. I will hire you as my maid! You'll be hired on the sa contract as Tanaka Kogar...

Shut up. Just get out of here.

I don't think I can communicate with this guy.

You haven't been listening to anything I've been saying, Count.

The sli has listened to and is being very cooperative.

I an, what's the point of demons being able to communicate with humans if they can't understand each other?

"Reggie, get the sli out of here.

I instructed Regina Brass. The slis hear this and move away.

'Rita and Letitia leave too, quickly!

The freed count and the warriors look at as if they were caught off guard.

I raise my magic sword Regina Brass.

The enemies are still in a perfect, tight formation.

They're all within range of my skill attack.

I swing the magic sword out from right beside in one fluid motion.

I unleash the power of the demon sword I've been swinging all this ti while gathering sli in this swamp!

Release! 'Delayed Combat (Delayed Arts) Lv 1!'

A huge black sheath appeared, smashing through the bag.

The sword wind sends up muddy water in the surrounding area.

The enemy notices the unusual situation and starts to move. But they're not going to make it in ti.

The sword that thrusts out to defend itself breaks. The shield twists. The armor crumples.

And then - the blow of the magic sword Leggy blasted all the warriors in the crowded state together.
