< Episode 109 >
A ball of fire the size of a child’s fist fluttered and stuck to the monster’s face, and unimaginable, terrible heat was released in all directions.
Roaring!
“Kuk!”
The startled Igor and I hurriedly retreated, and the heat emitted by the fireball covering the monster’s face instantly made the temperature inside the cave hot.
“How is it!”
Lucas’s voice, swirling with joy and madness, echoed through the cave, and all eyes turned to Lucas at once.
Lucas, whose face had turned white, was sweating profusely, probably because it was not an easy magic, but the elated expression on his face didn’t seem to care at all.
Whoa!
The flames that used the monster’s body as a medium expanded its momentum and burned, and a scream filled with pain rang out from the monster’s mouth.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
The movement of the monster writhing in pain caused a roar and shock to the extent that the cave shook, but the party stood back and looked at the monster with calm eyes.
“… that’s amazing.”
Lucas’ magic this time was so great that Lloyd admired it.
It’s not that there aren’t magicians who can work that level of magic.
But what Lloyd paid attention to was time and catalyst.
They admired Lucas’ ability to complete that level of magic in a relatively short period of time without panicking at all in a sudden battle situation.
“Khehehehe. Do you understand the greatness of magic?”
“······ It would be better to take care of yourself first.”
Lloyd, quietly ignoring Lucas’ condescending appearance, held the anti-materiel sniper rifle to his shoulder.
“Huh.”
I only breathed lightly, but the air around me changed and the atmosphere calmed down.
A strange light flashed in the eyes of John, Lucas, and Igor, and all eyes turned to Lloyd.
Kneeling on one knee, just aiming a gun slung over his shoulder.
But even though that’s all there is, indescribable pressure spreads out in all directions.
Lloyd’s appearance is infinitely ordinary, but infinitely extraordinary.
“I’ve heard that there is a level where you can become one with a weapon, but this is the first time I’ve seen a gun and mind match.”
Lloyd grinned at Lucas’s admiration.
“You’re not an unmanned bayonet. I can’t do the new sword union, but I can do it at least.”
“… If it was that easy, all of Luna’s abilities would have been unmanned.”
Lloyd, who smiled humanly at Lucas’ lamentations, glanced at John and Igor before opening his mouth.
“It’s not a big deal, but I’ll take a look. It might come in handy later.”
Lloyd’s expression became solemn as he looked at the monster rampaging with his horse.
“・・・・・ Umm.”
Igor flinched as he felt the massive aura concentrating, and John also opened his eyes to Lloyd.

My finger pulled the trigger all too naturally, and a large-caliber bullet flew out.
bang!
The sight of the bullets fired with a roar that was hard to believe was the sound of bullets being fired seemed like slow motion.
His extremely concentrated brain accelerated his thinking, and John could clearly see the bullet slowly moving forward in that accelerated thought.
shot.
It was an ordinary bullet that didn’t even carry an aura, but the result of the bullet that cut through space and dug into the monster’s leg was to make both eyes widen.
Kwajijik!
Didn’t the power that spread in all directions from the point of impact completely cut off one of the monster’s legs?
intention.
Instead of an aura, he put his thoughts and images into the bullet, and the will to destroy the bullet contained in it pulverized the monster’s body.
Heh heh heh heh!
While the whole body was on fire, a scream of pain rang out from the mouth of the monster whose leg had been completely cut off, and Lloyd, who confirmed it, lowered the barrel with a light sigh.
“It’s pretty solid. Resistance to abilities and physical defense.”
“… I don’t think that’s what a person who blew off a leg with a single blow would say.”
Lloyd shrugged at Igor’s words.
“So that’s what I’m saying. I was going to kill him with this one shot.”
In a way, it seemed arrogant, but no one pointed out Lloyd.
Lloyd’s move just before was worth it.
“It was a good sight. I will repay you later.”
“It was nothing. I hope this helps.”
“enough.”
Looking at Lloyd’s smile at John’s strong-willed words, John decided to repay him somehow as soon as the opportunity arose.
What Lloyd showed was astonishing.
Superhuman conditions.
Build your own image and spread it to the world.
Although it varies depending on the scale and density of the image, the superhuman image that is unfolded in that way ignores the rules of the world and imposes its own laws.
Only those who can do that are recognized as superhumans, and that is why superhumans are respected.
And what Lloyd showed.
It was a milestone on the road to superman, so John was taught a great lesson.
When John’s abilities continue to increase and one day he hits the wall leading to superman, it’s clear that today’s memory will be of great help.
Although the lineage is different, in general, talented people are stingy about giving their money to others.
However, Lloyd showed favor to John and Igor after seeing their potential, and this is not the thinking of an ordinary person with abilities.
‘He must be a drill instructor with this kind of personality.’
Taking a peek at the thoughtful Lucas and Igor, John’s gaze turned to the burning monster.
······ Kreurrr.
Lloyd’s bullet, which burned his whole body and completely blew off one of his legs with Lucas’s magic, penetrated the monster’s body and still remained there, so it’s not something that even mutants can withstand.
thud.
how long has it been since
The huge body of the mutant, which completely lost the light of life and was carbonized, fell to the floor of the cave.
“Have you done it?”
At Lucas’s words, Igor, in the form of a werewolf, strode forward.
The pure white hair covering the whole body and the bizarre light on the ten nails extending like blades were definitely completely different from the normal lycanthropes, and they were very reassuring.
hooked
Igor stabbed his claws into the monster’s still-heated corpse, and the claws dug in without resistance tore through the monster’s interior, but there was no movement.
“He is dead.”
A voice so clear that it was hard to believe it had come from the wolf’s mouth rang out, and only then did the party approach the monster’s corpse.
Uzijik.
Lucas, who removed the monster’s tissue with his telekinesis magic and floated it in the air, narrowed his eyes.
“… It’s an organization I’ve never seen before. I may be shallow, but at least I don’t know.”
“A bass is like a dog or a wolf. By the way, is there a creature with such a large volume?”
Everyone nodded at Igor’s murmur.
Excluding the bizarre appearance, tentacles, and heterogeneous body tissues that are not bilaterally symmetrical, it is a typical canine appearance.
It’s not that there aren’t wizards who experiment with synthesizing creatures, and there are a lot of companies in Luna that lightly violate taboos, but isn’t there a basic thing anyway?
Animals of this size did not exist in Luna.
‘······ If it’s normal, it would be like that.’
And this is the scary thing about mutants.
The law of conservation of mass is the expansion of volume like dogs or weeks.
The form that became the base and the form that revealed the true form as a mutant, generally having two forms, the mutant’s ecology is a mystery itself.
Unlike the others who looked at the charred corpse of the monster with serious eyes, John used all his abilities to look around.
and that moment.
“Oh!”
“what!”
One part of the corpse bulged loudly.
Wow!
With a loud sound, something pierced through the carbonized tissue, and something jumped out, and it seemed to be shot through the other side of the cave at an amazing speed.
“Stop!”
The situation was so sudden that even Igor, including Lloyd, could not react, and I wondered if I would miss something suspicious.
Kwajik!
The panels that rose rapidly from the ground surrounded the monster body, and the shock in proportion to the rapid speed shook the monster body.
Uh.
John’s fingers twitched, and the panels that appeared changed into regular hexagons, completely sealing the body of the monster.
A sudden, unexpected situation.
Lloyd and Lucas’ eyes widened in bewilderment, and John pulled the panel that had turned into a box in front of him.
“Did you know?”
John shrugged at Igor’s question.
“I just paid a little more attention. It’s a creature I’ve never seen before.”
“Right.”
Unlike Igor, who nodded in admiration, Lucas and Lloyd had a humble expression, but John had a calm expression.
‘Of course I knew. I’m glad I stopped.’
John was good at managing facial expressions in this area, and in the end, Lucas and Lloyd couldn’t find anything out of the ordinary.
‘The key is to prevent resistance. If this guy ran away, it would be like Lucas and Lloyd’s power being cut in half.’
There are many reasons why mutants are called extinct, but among them, the most fatal is their ability to adapt.
If you don’t cut off your breath all at once, you will adapt and resist the damage.
If it was simply that, it would be a little painful, but the surprising thing about mutants is that.
The acquired resistance can be shared with all mutants, and as the resistance accumulates, a being that cannot be used by any attack is born.
The existence that was born in this way has not been able to use firearms as well as a decent ability, and if a superman does not come out, it becomes an existence that cannot be treated.
The parent body continuously produces evolved objects with the collected information and transmits resistance to evolve existing objects in real time.
A legion of tens or hundreds of thousands of beings that were impossible to defeat unless they were superhuman.
That’s why mutants are called extinct.
Just thinking about it made despair rise, but that’s why John had hope.
‘I can do it now.’
A mother body that is not yet fully active and is just starting to walk.
It is certainly bizarre and frightening, but now, without any resistance, it would be possible to erase the mother body from the world.
So, the moment John became convinced of the existence of the mutants, he began to move quickly.
If the mutants start moving in earnest, it’s clear that the aftermath will have a serious impact on John’s survival.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day.
A bizarre sound coming from the inside of the panel penetrated everyone’s ears, and they naturally frowned.
“Noisy.”
“I can understand it just by hearing it. This is dangerous.”
Even Lucas, a wizard with a thirst for knowledge in his head, frowned.
Perhaps it was an instinctive reluctance against a species that threatened its species.
blank.
John, who also frowned, pushed one side of the panel and put an object in it.
Awesome profit!
Terrible gas flowed from the sealed panel, and scorching heat was transmitted to the outside of the panel.
The incendiary grenade was burning the organisms inside the panel to dust.
“This is probably the most obvious.”
Everyone nodded at John’s words.
incineration.
This is the moment when the party’s policy toward mutants is decided.
