I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling - I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling chapter 112

112 – … I won’t be able to eat meat pancakes from now on

-The protective magic on the castle wall has been completed to 70% of the planned level. It will all be completed in about 30 minutes.

“Thank you for your hard work. There is no more work assigned to the 3rd Magic Division, so please rest and recover your consumed magic power.”

-Okay.

“…Whew. I’m a little tired.”

Inside the simply constructed command center.

Lekai Dirk, a petite girl who had quit smoking, sighed and leaned back on the rough chair.

Her man, who was watching the girl in a corner of her command post, handed her a glass of water and spoke to her.

“Good job, Roy.”

“Ah, Jin. Thank you. I was just about to become a thirsty desert.”

Le Kai drank the water he received from Jinpakshin in one go.

“Ha…, Now I’m going to live for a while… So? What do you want to ask me, so you’re doing such an amazing thing?”

“…Big. If anyone hears it, they’ll misunderstand it as a man who doesn’t even take care of his fiancé.”

“Huh? Then who is the vicious man who cheated on my fiancé while I was concentrating on my training after making a date the other day?”

“Queunnng….”

The girl, who had been looking at the man who was groaning and shrugging his shoulders with amusement, changed the topic.

“So? Are you curious about what my fiancé is? Well, I have a rough guess.”

“It’s just a light question. I think we would have been able to break Class A’s flag if we had just pushed ahead, but I’m curious as to why you gave the retreat order.”

“Hmm… I guess it’s a shame that I couldn’t end the battle with the chief?”

Seeing the girl’s sly look in her eyes that seemed to tell her to tell her true feelings rather than show off, the boy shook his head and said,

“…Leui, I can’t stand you.”

“Kukuk. I’ve known you for over 10 years, so it’s natural. Anyway, at that time, there was no other option than to retreat. That’s why I sent 10 people on a special attack to the flag. To prevent them from chasing us as we retreated. “If we had done that, we might have been outnumbered.”

“Hmm? Weren’t we overwhelmingly superior?”

“On the outside, it looks that way.”

The girl said, shaking her shoulders once.

“While we were tying up the opponent’s top student, we had to eliminate the other Class A students even for a moment. So we used our magic power and stamina sparingly, so even though we looked fine on the outside, we were quite exhausted. We rushed in that state. Even if I tried, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve even half of my usual skills.”

“Hmm. I guess so.”

“Furthermore, if others were aiming for the flag, the opposing aces would naturally not sit still. Naturally, the scope of the battlefield would narrow. If that happens…”

“I guess a melee broke out.”

“Yes. As a commander like me, this is one of the things I want to avoid the most. The variables on the battlefield become too large. Moreover, I also learned from being defeated by you once, but superhumans with your level of talent should grow during battle. One? Anyway, the explosive power is amazing. If you push too hard, you can overturn a battlefield where you had a 99% chance of winning. At least if you were the chief, you would have definitely turned it over, right?”

“Sure… I took all the measures I could, but I couldn’t get more than a whistle in the battle. Even if I went to the end, my chance of winning would have been about half. If my five intentions had been blocked, I would have lost, and if it hadn’t been blocked, I would have lost. I would have won.”

“A combination of master-level swordsmanship, battle mage-level brain magic, and the senses of an upper-level superhuman… Even if you’re a senior, it’s not a skill that a first-year student who has just entered school would have.”

‘They say that if you meet a high-level magic swordsman on the battlefield, it will be more annoying than your skills, but when you actually deal with it, it’s more than you can imagine….’ Le Kai sighed.

“Well, I’m glad it worked out as planned. After about 30 minutes when the defenses are completed like this, our victory is almost guaranteed.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. Once the defense is completed, the number of people required for defense will be drastically reduced, and the number of people available for battle will increase significantly. With that, we can cut down the enemy. It will take a lot of time, but in the end, we will win.”

Le Kai said that, stood up from his seat, and began to put on the armor he had taken off.

“The opponent will know that too, so they will launch an all-out attack before their defenses are complete. That is the only way to win left for them. And the timing of that all-out attack will probably be──.”

───It is an enemy attack!!!

“──Now.”

The girl’s last words overlapped with those of the student who was watching the surroundings on the castle wall.

The girl, who had already prepared her battle, immediately left the tent.

The fortress was built on a hilly terrain with a fairly steep slope.

Among them, the command post was located slightly above the hillside, and the girl who left the command post could see all the way to the tree-cutting border beyond the castle wall.

Le Kai put on goggles imprinted with vision-enhancing magic and looked in the direction where the enemy was said to have been discovered.

“──One person?”

Contrary to her expectations that they would come all at once, she felt momentarily taken aback by the sight of Jesar Saigum trudging alone.

And at that moment, Jesar suddenly started running towards the castle wall at full speed.

“Everyone, prepare for battle! From the 1st to the 5th division, all wizards must chant magic in order! The timing of shooting is instructed here! Other units should also move as instructed in advance! Move quickly. , Don’t rush! There are traps outside the castle walls, so you have plenty of time to prepare!”

Le Kai quickly erased his embarrassment at that sight and began to give instructions calmly.

Hearing the girl’s sharp command, the other students quickly formed up like an army in high spirits and began preparing for battle.

And after breaking through the various traps that slowed down his progress, Jesar had reached about halfway up the castle wall.

All students of the Three Color Alliance were in an interception posture.

“1St Division! Fire!”

The five wizards fired magic at Jesar at once.

Grrr!

Five fireballs the size of basketballs raced through the air.

Originally, it was a long distance that the magic could not even touch, let alone touch, but the location on top of the high castle wall and the steep hill made it possible for the magic to reach Jesar, who was 500 meters away.

“Huh!”

The moment the magic was fired, the magic did not hit Jesar, who jumped to the side with all his might.

Jesar runs through the dust raised when the magic lands on the ground.

“Fire the 2nd division! Fire the 3rd division immediately! Continue firing sequentially until another command is given!”

The group that fired the magic immediately falls back and starts chanting, and another wizard fills the empty space and then fires the magic they chanted… Continuous projection of magic without stopping.

The magic did not hit Jessar, who was running in a fast zigzag motion to avoid the magic, but his breakthrough speed became so slow that it was incomparable to when he ran in a straight line.

After taking a moment to take a breather, Le Kai immediately gave instructions to the others by busily calling them out.

“Jolf, Leather. Can you hear me?”

-What is happening to this genius!

-Yes, I can hear you. Le Kai.

“Zolf Deidara, you attack Jesar Cyger. And Leather. You use the [Magic Search] Gift to check if there are any other enemies nearby besides Jesar Cyger.”

-hahahaha! This is your chance to show off your magic skills!

-Okay. Since it’s on the castle wall, which is a good location to activate it, I’ll use it right away.

After hearing the girl’s instructions, a man with all-white yellow hair and an ordinary-looking man in simple clothes began to act separately on the castle wall.

“hahahaha!!! I’ll clearly show you the power of this body!!!”

At the tip of the staff of Zolph Deidara, the yellow-haired man laughing loudly on the wall on the left, fire and water magic began to mix, creating a sphere of explosions with flickering light.

‘Explosion magic’ is a complex magic of fire and water properties, and is characterized by high power and wide-range damage due to massive explosions and subsequent shock waves.

If Zolph’s gift, [Range Expansion B], Is added to it, it becomes a wide-area magic that literally destroys within a 30-meter radius from the point of impact.

It was not a magic that could be avoided by running to the level of a superhuman, unless you were a warrior specialized in agility.

“…….”

Leather Searcher, a man dressed simply, closed his eyes on the right castle wall and concentrated on activating the gift.

His gift is [Magic Search B].

It is an ultra-wide range search-type gift that detects creatures or objects with magical power within a 5km radius around the caster.

Those with magical powers could never hide from this gift.

The moment when the light of the explosion ball reaches its peak and a wave of magical power explodes from Leather.

“──【Bankrupt Maengwoogak (破山猛牛角)】”

“──「Geomokshi (巨木矢)」”

Something was fired at the two people in the dense forest.

Aiming at Zolph is a javelin that has entered the realm of sound and contains the dragon power of a javelin thrower.

The target for Leather is an arrow imbued with the magic power of a high elf that swims gracefully through the air.

The surprise attack, which accurately penetrated the moment just before the activation of the supernatural ability, robbed the two men of the timing to take evasive action.

“Holy sh*t…!”

“Huh…!”

To offset the attack, Zolf fired the completed explosion ball, aiming it at the thrown spear.

Unlike high-level Gifts, Leather, whose strength was only mid-level, had no choice but to avoid even fatal injuries by crossing his arms and holding out his one-handed sword, using it as a shield to block arrows.

The best course of action from their perspective.

However, their actions ended in nothing more than a struggle.

─Kwajik!!!

The mountain-shattering horn of the fierce wolf pierced cleanly through the sphere of explosion, and then reflexively pierced the heart of Zolf with the two warriors who stepped in front of him.

─BOOM!!!

Just before the high elf’s wooden arrow hit its target, it grew into a thick tree exceeding 3 meters in diameter in the blink of an eye, blowing away Leather’s entire upper body with a physical force comparable to that of a ballista, a siege weapon.

Everyone’s attention was focused on the situation that suddenly occurred, and for a split second, the movement on the battlefield stopped.

Only the next action of the person who planned this situation continued without hesitation.

Wooow-

“Huh? What is this sound…”

The wizard student, who was dazed by the sudden situation where two important people were eliminated in an instant, raised his head to the sky where he heard a strange sound.

──Kuzik

It was crushed by a large rock that fell from the sky and turned into a stain on the ground.

“Uh, huh?”

The student who had been staring blankly at the towering rock in his friend’s seat right next to him slowly raised his head.

──Shoouuuck!!!!!!

He muttered quietly as he saw dozens of rock chunks falling from the sky onto the fortress and the rock growing rapidly in his field of vision.

“…I won’t be able to eat beef from now on.”

──Kwajak
