Magica Technica ～Sword Demon Rakshasa’s VRMMO Battle Record～

Magica Technica Chapter 172

It seems that the inside of the city is filled with devils from corner to corner.

The devils look like humans, but they don't act like humans, and it feels like they're just spending their time casually.

Apparently, in such a state, it doesn't seem to move as agilely as in battle.

"... What the hell is a devil? It's kind of distorted as a creature."

"I thought too much It never happened ... I wonder what they are, "

While watching the devil that Alice stabbed and killed disappear, I make a small nod. ..

Thus, it's probably the first time you've seen a devil instead of a combat state.

In particular, I couldn't even imagine the ecology of the lesser demons who couldn't communicate.

However, when you observe the devils again in this way, you can easily see the strangeness.

"It's not just waiting ... it seems like you're doing what you want, but it doesn't seem to make sense."

>

"I keep eating something, I keep sleeping, I keep breaking things ... I wonder what this is"

" It's creepy, but it's easy to poke the back. Do you think it was convenient? "

" That's right "

However, not all demons fall into that category.

Apparently, higher-ranking demons such as Demon Knight do not repeat one action, but seem to have a range of action close to that of humans.

Also, it seems that they can give instructions together with the lesser demon. It seems that the range of action will be considerably expanded because the demons who received the instructions can move according to that.

After all, it's the most annoying thing to find, and you need to move to avoid approaching as much as possible.

"The lower devil is a machine rather than a creature"

"It takes away the energy of human existence." I wonder? In terms of the strength for that, isn't it a mistake to say that it's a machine? "

" There was a movement that made me afraid of this, and it was completely It doesn't look like it's a machine. "

I don't think it's without feelings, but ... I don't really understand.

Well, there is no change in slashing anyway. This time, I'm not actively dealing with them, but eventually I'll annihilate all the demons here. At that time, let's slash everything.

"Well ... let's move on, Alice"

"OK, let's go"

Nod a little and move on.

Go through the back alleys to the outer walls around the city.

Basically, there aren't many demons in the back alleys. Some people are wandering around sometimes, but it's not difficult to abruptly kill someone who isn't vigilant.

It's easy if you wait at the corner and pierce the blade.

Detecting the sign of a devil approaching us from the front, we enter a side road and wait.

Pull down the approaching Lesser Demon without any warning, and stab his chest with a blade while trampling his throat.

The devil, who would not have known what had happened, died and disappeared.

"Sometimes I think, but how do you detect the sign of the devil?"

"Simply put, train your five senses. I'm just there. "

Some Sixth Senses are not unheard of, but most of them rely on the five senses.

Kudou Jintsuu-style, the boundary of Morira myriad forms, which is the ultimate goal, can be embodied by taking in all kinds of information.

That fucking Jijii didn't explain at all, but the roots have been conveyed.

By capturing and processing all kinds of information, it senses the existence of a position away from the body.

However, this requires considerable training of the brain itself.

"Visual, tactile, olfactory, auditory. I rarely use taste, but I comprehensively judge the information obtained from these sensations and identify the position of the other party. "I'm doing"

"... I don't really get the image"

"Sound, vibration, smell, movement of air ..." ... Well, there are various things. You shouldn't worry too much about it because you can only understand if you continue to train. "

The brain basically has all the functions at once. I don't imitate it.

I sometimes hear that I use only 10%, but the point is that I just rest the parts that I don't normally use.

Kudou Jintsuu-style's swordsman trains this perception ability to make the information processing function of the brain widely active.

The more you train, the sharper your feelings will be. By continuing this, we are able to detect a wide range of signs.

We go through the dimly lit back alleys, talking in a whisper and not overlooking the signs.

So far, there is no sign of a devil approaching here. It's only a matter of time before you reach the outer wall.

However, there are still some problems.

"Turn the corner there ... and you'll be on the outer wall street"

"Oh, and that's the problem

While sighing lightly, turn the corner pointed to by Alice and proceed.

When I turned my gaze to the back alley where the light came in, I saw the towering outer wall.

It's nice to be able to reach your destination, which is exactly what you intended, and it's a place you've had to reach eventually.

The problem is--

"After all, there are many devils here"

"I thought it would happen, but this is a hassle."

The wall surrounding the huge fortress city of Bergen.

It is an important facility to protect the inside from monsters and invaders from the outside.

It can be said that the scale is huge and solid, and the ability to prevent foreign enemies is the best because it sings a fortified city.

But now the city is dominated by the devil, and this outer wall is also occupied by the devil.

In other words, the defensive is all used by them, and the capture is extremely difficult.

"The entrance to the outer wall is over there."

"But there is a guard on the stone. There is nothing to hide on this street, it's tough on the rocks. "

" What should I do? Wait until the time of change? "

"I don't know if the Lesser Demon will change in the first place."

With a small sigh, I touch the wall of the next building. Then, I focused my attention as it was and searched for the signs inside.

Apparently, there is no devil in this building.

If so, let's use this building first.

"Climb up, but can you help?"

"Up? Oh, climb the roof of this building? Then ... ... Well, it's not impossible. "

I open my eyes to the unexpected reply.

I intended to hold it and climb to the top if necessary, but how do you intend to follow it?

Well, if you can, let's take a look.

Smile a little and shake your right arm lightly. What I take out is the hook rope hidden in the sleeve of the haori.

For the hook rope that was thrown overhead, I pulled the rope with a snap on my wrist at the right timing.

Then, the reinforced hook claws caught on the edge of the roof and could be fixed well.

After confirming that, I jumped on the spot while pulling the rope strongly.

Using the strength of your arms and legs, and the springs of your whole body, you can jump higher than usual-and then run up using the wall of the building as a foothold.

By doing so, I quickly reached the top of the building roof.

"Yeah ... Hmm, it's convenient"

The moment the rope bends, the hook claws loosen, and then the wrist It can be removed with just a snap.

If this is the case, it may be possible to continuously change the position of the hook rope and move a long distance.

Well, that would require some practice.

Anyway, how is Alice going to climb this far?

When I beckoned to this place while looking down, she sighed lightly and bent and stretched lightly on the spot.

And she drops her center of gravity-strongly kicking the ground and jumping.

"How ..."

The movement made me sigh in admiration.

Alice jumped many times, using the depressions and small protrusions in the wall as a foothold, and jumped to the top of the roof.

I give up my words of praise for the light movement.

"It's a big deal. Can you move that much in reality?"

"No, don't be crazy. Now I could only do it because I have the skill of "light work". "

Apparently, there seems to be such a type of skill that corrects movement.

Of course, what you can and can do is another story, but Alice seems to be able to put it into her body well.

It seems that you can use imaginary beats, but you probably have good control over your own body.

"So what do you do from here?"

"I got overhead, I can reach this distance. Until. "

There are two demons protecting the front of the door. I think I'll be able to do it alone, but I'd like Alice to help me.

However, when Alice heard my words, she turned her eyes and returned the words.

"I can't jump that far, right?"

"I know, if you throw a paralyzed knife Good "

" It's subtle whether it hits at this distance "

" What do you think of insurance? " Now, I'll do it before the devil comes on the outer wall. "

I tell you, I lower the center of gravity low-jumping at a stretch.

Alice throws a poison edge on her knife at about the same time.

Alice's knife flies sharply and pierces the devil's flank on the left.

The paralyzing poison that worked with it caused the devil to collapse on the spot-faster than the devil on the right reacts abnormally, I cushioned my body. I crushed it in the form of a devil.

Before the body starts to move again, it hits the blade toward the medulla oblongata, quickly kills the devil, and then stabs and kills the other one who is stuck with paralytic poison.

I checked the situation while paying attention to the surrounding signs, and I beckoned Alice on the roof while being relieved that no one had discovered it yet.

For some reason, Alice with a stunned expression descends to the ground with a small window as a foothold.

"Isn't it okay if I didn't climb up?"

"... Well, the knife flies Considering the distance, this one would have been better. Let's try to invade inside. "

While looking away from the line of sight looking up with half an eye, the devil is protecting. Slowly push open the door.

It will be even more difficult from here. Re-energizing, I broke into the wall with Alice.
