Magician in Type-Moon

Page 194

Orange, however, overturned this rule. Since pistols are weak in firepower, they decided to use numbers to decide the outcome.

She doesn't just rely on the power of her eyes, but rather on the continuous layering of projected magic eyes.

Nine-millimeter bullets may not be a threat, but when there are enough bullets, even the strongest defenses will be penetrated—that is the principle of the Multiple Eyes.

This method is not only extremely efficient, but it also completely overturns the traditional law in the magic world that "chanting is king".

With her multiple magical eyes, Orange practically controls time and space in battle; once her gaze locks onto a target, the opponent has no way to escape.

Those bound by it can only be freed after the orange closes its eyes.

Although it's just theoretical talk, in theory it can be "infinite" as long as your magic power is less than your opponent's, then you have no way to use magic power to fight back.

Therefore, the only effective way to fight against Orange's Demon Eye is to defeat her before she becomes aware of you.

The only strategy to break this overwhelming power is to defeat Orange quickly and thoroughly before she activates her Multiple Mystic Eyes.

......

"Ah, are you asleep?"

Matou Ike looked at Ryougi Shiki, who was fast asleep on the ground, shrugged, and picked her up.

"I can't do anything with you. The Ryougi family's mansion in the suburbs, surrounded by bamboo forest, isn't it?"

Using the insects left at the Ryougi family mansion, Matou Ike pinpointed the exact location.

The Ryougi family mansion, surrounded by bamboo groves, was built according to the specifications of a samurai residence.

Walking on the ground alone, one cannot judge the size of this mansion enclosed by high walls.

Without taking a flight and looking down from the air, it's impossible to accurately grasp the scale of a building.

Walk along the bamboo forest trail, which resembles a mountain path.

Matouike carried Ryougi Shiki on his shoulder and slowly walked to the magnificent gate that resembled an ancient samurai residence.

After ringing the doorbell and explaining the purpose of the visit, a man in a black suit appeared.

The man looked to be in his early twenties, with a pale face and gloomy eyes.

She is said to be the person in charge of taking care of Ryougi Shiki's daily life.

His gaze darted back and forth between Matou Pond and Ryougi Shiki, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

When Ryougi Shiki, covered in blood, was handed over to the other party, she could clearly feel the terrifying expression on the other party's face that said, "My young lady has been corrupted by a suspicious man."

Matou Ike politely declined the other party's invitation to come inside and rest, even though he was indeed very tired, as the matter of the night was not completely over yet.

On his way to the Ryougi family, he received a message from Aozaki Touko—Garan no Tou had been invaded.

Although Touko spoke lightly, telling him to rest well and mentioning that "with her around, everything will be fine," Matou Ike couldn't completely put his mind at ease.

He had never doubted Orange's abilities; the woman seemed to handle all kinds of situations with ease, as if nothing could truly shake her.

But how can anyone be completely at ease in the face of this situation?

Matou Ike shook his head, the unease in his heart lingering.

As the magic power within him gradually returned, he activated the insect eggs residing in his body.

The black swarm of insects swirled around him like a whirlwind, engulfing him completely.

The insect eggs deformed, split, and multiplied, forming a black force in the air that sped swiftly and silently toward the Hall of Garan.

......

Araya Souren and Aozaki Touko's confrontation reached a stalemate, and the air was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere.

The immense pressure of the space felt like an invisible constraint, pressing tightly against Orange's body, as if trying to squeeze every inch of her muscles to their limit.

Orange's breathing became heavy, but she remained calm, her eyes never leaving Araya.

Barely controlling his body, he moved his wrist by sheer willpower.

As for Araya Sōren, his vision has been sealed due to the curse of the Demon Eye.

You can barely make out the moon in the sky and the staircase-like blue trails drawn by the orange with the cigarette in your hand.

"Very good. You have no regrets in your life, which is truly enviable." The incantation written into the atmosphere caused the skin to crack.

The wind transformed into sharp blades, threatening to rip Araya's coat and body to shreds—

"Ah!" he cried out, a sound like a dying scream.

A "whoosh!" sound rang out.

The magician had no time to retaliate and lost most of his body.

The magician, now only his head and shoulders, fell to the ground with a thud, his expression a mixture of death and distress. The remains of Araya Souren rolled down the stairs.

Orange calmly observed the scene while coughing up a pool of blood.

The magical effect from Araya Sōren has disappeared, but the damage it caused her is still real.

She hadn't forgotten that the guy she had shredded into pieces had once been a puppeteer.

Moreover, he possessed the skills of his ancestors and was known as the "demon monk who made dolls."

The crisis is not yet completely over.

That man definitely has a killer move he hasn't used yet.

H, T, I, L, O, NG, Z

She drew several primordial rune symbols one after another.

Disruption, order, obstruction, emotion, inheritance, guidance, protection.

A set of rune-based protective sequences glowed faintly around her.

Although protective measures had been implemented, Aozaki Touko still couldn't calm down.

"Continuous use of runes consumes too much magic power... The effect of projecting the Mystic Eye onto the mirror in the Mystic Eye also consumed a huge amount of magic power... Simple protection can't last long..."

Aozaki Touko considered whether she should reveal a slight weakness to lure Araya Sōren into making a move, hoping to completely annihilate Araya Sōren here when her magic power was completely depleted.

Otherwise, she's just wasting her magic power.

Moreover, even if it ends in a one-for-one exchange, she has a spare body to bring her back to life.

But the thought that Araya Souren might also be using puppets to attack gives me a headache.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Having endured several magical attacks, the Hall of Garan is now teetering on the brink of collapse.

The cage that sealed Keita's head was broken at some point.

The head landed right in front of Orange, chattering away with a bunch of nonsense.

As it turns out, Aozaki Touko's judgment was correct.

Araya Sōren has not appeared since that body was destroyed; he has been waiting for Aozaki Tōko's magic power to be depleted.

The duel between magicians is, in essence, a clash between concepts.

But there is another factor that no magician can overcome.

That's a problem with magical power.

Chapter 250 Attack and Defense

At this moment, Orange not only had to consider the amount of magic she had left, but also how much magic Araya Sōren had left.

This means we know when Araya Sōren will launch his all-out attack.

Just as Aozaki Touko was about to expand the scope of her magic, she suddenly noticed bright yellow lines protruding from the back of Aruba's doll as she tried to track down Araya Sōren.

Is that "King Kong"?

The name and concept of this barrier come from the Buddhist concept of "Vajra," which signifies indestructibility.

It is the emptiness of the Tathagatagarbha mind.

"Does Araya think I'll attack that area first? Or is he just standing there, but I can't detect him, and only now, due to the depletion of his magic power, is a clue showing?"

Aozaki Touko quickly began to think. The "Diamond" barrier was Araya Sōren's strongest protective ability.

The reason she was able to successfully launch a sneak attack and shatter the doll was because she used her magic eye to completely suppress it, preventing it from setting up a barrier, which allowed the Runic, which was as gentle as a breeze, to hit her.

Therefore, at this moment, the location of the "Kongo" barrier must contain something that Araya Sōren wants to protect.

It could be the location of his true form, or it could be something else entirely. It couldn't possibly be that he wasted his magic power to leave the "King Kong" barrier there simply to protect the doll left behind by the confirmed dead Aruba.

However, there might be another possibility...

As the bright yellow line flashed briefly and then suddenly went out.

Without hesitation, Aozaki Touko proactively launched both "H" and "NG" Runic.

The next second, the air twisted and ice shards, which appeared out of nowhere and were accompanied by a gale, enveloped Aruba's doll with an unerring accuracy.

A click sound followed.

The dust and mist have dissipated!

Zero seconds.

Aozaki Touko, pressed against the wall, sensed the unusual movement behind her.

That is?

Blood gushed out in one breath.

The unavoidable dizziness made Aozaki Touko feel dizzy and disoriented.

"Space transfer?"

How can it be!

Another possibility that Aozaki Touko had just considered was that the "Diamond" layer was just a smokescreen.

It was specially prepared to attract her attention and thus allow Araya Sōren to launch a sneak attack.

Abandoning defensive techniques and launching a self-destructive attack.
