33 – Chapter 12. Spirit Busters – 2

– 34 –

I asked a researcher to give me equipment such as a vacuum cleaner and safety glasses.

I turned the device on and off while listening to a brief explanation, and I felt the energy of the spirit.

“Two o’clock. The attack is coming.”

As I pointed in the direction, a researcher swung the tip of the vacuum cleaner back and forth.

There, I could see the magic generated by the higher spirits and the lower spirits involved in them being sucked in.

“Can this even stop the shelling?”

“It is not. In the bombardment, the role of the spirit is only an auxiliary, and magic is the main component. It specializes in absorbing pure spirit energy and transforming it into natural magical energy.”

Sheesh.

I can only imagine my wonderful figure as I roam the battlefield with a vacuum cleaner on my back.

My eyes are literally the eyes of spirits, so I could see even lower level spirits with or without safety goggles.

However, it seems there is something, so I wrote it first.

A translucent light green low-level wind spirit that looked like it was drawn roughly was flying in all directions.

Most of them greeted me and showed their friendship, but there were some who got caught up in the magic of higher spirits and ran into me with a terrifying force.

Weing

They are sucked in with a vacuum cleaner, drained of their ferocious magic, and then released back.

Then everyone becomes quiet.

AKA “The vacuum cleaner knows the answer.”

Operator I gave instructions by subdividing the direction and location using the tips I learned in class.

Researchers and soldiers quickly adapted and arrived at the higher wind spirits without hesitation.

A dimly lit classroom that appears to be twice the size of other classrooms.

I looked inside through the open window and something flew and I quickly bowed my head.

[[Don’t come any closer!]]

A magical bullet that condensed the wind passed over her head with a noise-filled reverberation.

Is it a high-level spirit guy?

Magic bullets fired directly had a different level of strength than those fired from an invisible distance.

Everyone was ready to rush right next to the classroom door.

The soldier who snatched me up beckoned and opened the door 3 seconds later.

Hooung

In an instant, a huge wind blew, pushing people who were entering the classroom to the other side of the hallway.

“Everyone fall to the side!”

With only the door open at the cry of the researcher leader, he returned to the same state as before.

The wind blew again, and he held out the vacuum cleaner, but his strength was so strong that he couldn’t even hold his jaw.

“I can’t use this anymore.”

After taking off the useless equipment and handed it to the researcher, I thought of a way to overcome the situation.

By the way, was Kaon’s party okay even after being attacked like this?

“It is said that higher level spirits increase their attack strength according to the affinity of the spirits of those who enter. They say that no matter how strong it was, it was an attack that would push her body slightly…….”

The researcher who was asked the question looked at me with a blurry end of his speech.

Yeah, it’s all my fault.

By the way, I’m a spirit too, so I haven’t learned such a skill yet, so I can’t use it?

It’s still a guess, but my attributes are probably wind and fire.

So, I’m sure it’ll be possible for me to attack with wind or fire like that.

I feel the magic flowing in my body vividly, but I don’t know how to release it because I haven’t learned magic properly yet.

By the way, why is a guy with this much power staying here?

And the higher the spirit affinity the higher the exclusion?

It was difficult to understand.

Besides, I remembered a scene I had just seen when I looked into the classroom.

A translucent green hemispherical shield that surrounds something black on the floor.

I needed to hear the detailed story related to this place.

“Communication to the outside is not working.”

Damn. Even interfering with radio waves?

Why are you so talented, that guy.

“Should I request support?”

“We need someone who knows more about this than support.”

“Oh, I know a little bit about that.”

Unexpectedly, a soldier, not a researcher, raised his hand.

The soldier was a middle-aged man, and he glanced around the classroom where the spirit was and started talking.

“I’m from the military academy here, but that spirit has been around for a long time. It wasn’t that violent back then.”

He continued his speech while leisurely avoiding the blowing wind.

“See that green hemispherical shield over there? They said they were trapped inside.”

“Then that black object?”

The soldiers and researchers looked puzzled at my question.

“A black object? I can’t see anything.”

I can’t.

I looked at the classroom with my head slightly tilted to see if I had misunderstood.

A stone-like object surrounded by an ominous black energy within a translucent green hemisphere.

As the wind blew from the classroom, I bowed my head and thought.

Q: What can humans not see and what spirits can see?

A: Elements related to spirits

In other words, there was a high possibility that the ominous black stone over there was badly related to the spirits.

Then this is my battlefield.

I don’t know what that black object is, but it was something that humans couldn’t even see.

However, can I ask the people who came with me to cover them?

“Everyone, please gather.”

Researchers and soldiers gathered around me.

One soldier connected two shields to his power armor and spread the shield magic to block the attack of the spirits for a while.

The range of the shield wasn’t very wide, so we started talking while holding each other’s shoulders like weaving a scrum.

“Can you see the black object in that green hemisphere over there?”

“… ….”

Everyone was silent.

One researcher licked her lips and then bit her mouth with a thoughtful expression.

“I think that object is something important.”

“Hey, Erif-sama.”

The researcher who had just stopped speaking raised his hand slightly.

“Is the black object Erif-sama a stone-like object that emits a black aura?”

“Yes. By the way.”

I can’t see it, but I just heard the explanation and figured out the identity.

You are indeed a researcher.

The researcher’s face turned blue at my answer and he began to panic.

“Okay, that’s a big deal! I never thought [Mark of the Demon God] Would be in a place like this!”

“A mark of a demon?”

It doesn’t sound like anything related to spirits.

My guess is wrong.

The researcher trembled, nodded her head frantically, then shook her arms to explain.

“The Demon’s Token is like a trap used for terrorism after the New Demon War. If it is not removed after a certain period of time, a one-way portal from the Demon Realm will open. I don’t know why it’s here, but what is certain is that the higher wind spirit is holding down the Demon’s Token.”

The researcher hardened her face and spoke in a trembling voice.

“You have to step back. Maybe we should mobilize the army…….”

In an instant, a sound that should not have been heard was heard.

It seems that other people as well as me heard the sound.

People who looked at each other rushed toward the classroom.

There were visible cracks in the translucent green hemisphere.

[[Oh no! It’s because of you!]]

A young, high-tone voice with noise was heard.

The main character of that voice must be a higher spirit.

Is there any way around this situation?

“Can I help you?”

[[What are you saying……. Come on, run away! Ah, it’s frustrating because I can’t understand the language.]]

Huh? Can’t speak

Other spirits understand human speech, but that guy can only understand spirit words.

Without being able to speak, he spoke again in the spirit language.

“[[Can I help you?]]”

[[Huh? Maybe you…… ?]]

The embarrassment was brief. The spirit immediately exclaimed urgently.

[[Please contact this token quickly. We must defeat them before this triggers!]]

“[[They?]]”

[[[Army of Nightmare] I mean.]]

What is that, that dreadful name.

Even at this moment, the crack was getting bigger.

If you leave it as it is, the demon’s mark will be completely exposed.

“Please go to support.”

After giving instructions to the researchers, they asked the soldiers to cover them.

Everyone followed without saying a word since they saw that the situation took a sudden turn.

I swallowed dry saliva and took a long deep breath to relieve my nervous mind and body.

After sending a signal to the soldiers standing behind him, he rushed into the classroom.

The spirit did not attack whether it was sincere to ask for help.

Rather, as if sending a signal, the half-broken shield was flickering faintly.

“I don’t know what will happen, so please be vigilant.”

“Yes!”

The moment I put my hand on the shield with trembling hands, leaving my back to the reliable answers of the soldiers.

Visor

The translucent green protective shield shattered like glass.

I frowned at the evil energy emanating from the black object, but I also felt the powerful spirit energy contained in it.

Believing in that energy, without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed the demon’s token in one hand.

Heart

“Ugh”

My heart pounded loudly once, whether it was there or not.

My vision was getting darker and I felt the energy of my body being sucked through the hand holding the token.

[[Be patient! Now soon…….]]

I could hear the spirit’s voice clearer than before, but I couldn’t understand what she was trying to say.

I lost the thin cords of her mind that were barely holding with the tips of her fingers.

“Sniff”

The first sense returned is the sense of smell.

There was a pungent smell that made my nose tingle.

Next, I caught an explosion sound that was unfamiliar to my ears and yet familiar.

And at some point, my mind came back as if I had restarted it.

When I open my eyes, I see a sky covered with dark red clouds and smoke rising from everywhere.

And the open ceiling.

Kwaang

I heard an explosion from a distance and the ground shook.

There were broken buildings everywhere.

The place I woke up was in a building that was half-collapsed.

Kirrik

A crude-looking tank that appeared with the sound of a caterpillar passed by crushing the debris of the building.

And the continuous sound of shelling without stopping.

“What is this… ….”

The more I understood the situation, the more confusing it became.

The word that can express the current situation is ‘street battle’

This was a battlefield.
