BXBX NOVEL 53 - Art. 53. What?Is This All Right?
"Ummm, the fires of hell are going to burn you down, aren\'t they? If you don\'t get out of here soon, you\'re going to burn up whole, aren\'t you?"
I kept my eyes fixed on Posehay and didn\'t move an inch.
"Hahahahaha, I\'m afraid you\'re too afraid to move, aren\'t I?"
"Master, please run away!"
Meilius clings to my back.
"I\'m going to kill you both at once, aren\'t I?"
"What are you doing mumbling all by yourself? That\'s a lame trifecta."
"What?"
"Oh, you didn\'t do anything to Meirias. Here you go."
The fire\'s out.
"If you can see the illusion, it\'s a good thing, but if you can\'t see it, it\'s an unbearable sight to behold..."
"Oh, it\'s painful to watch. You\'re not looking good, you know. Are you done? You\'re all kinds of fun to tease."
We have already put a 10-meter perimeter around this Posehay and locked it up. Then, we will generate a large number of cockroaches in it.
"Whoa! What the hell! No!"
Unexpectedly, Posehay escapes into the air. I detonate its black wings, taking away its ability to fly. He lands on the ground screaming in pain, desperately trying to escape from the goblin. I detonate both of his legs, blocking his movement. Posehay is flailing around, his whole body being violated by a large number of cockroaches.
"No! Geeaaaah! Stop it! Don\'t do it, don\'t do it, don\'t do it!
As one would expect, this scene is unbearable to watch, so Meilius and Gon try to keep the goblin out of sight. From their point of view, Posehay suddenly appears to be delirious.
I appraise this Posehay again as I watch the scene.

This skill is specialized in deceiving people. I was interested in this "shifting art", though it is not so good in a real fight with me.
Hey Gon, what is the art of shifting?
It is a kind of spatial magic, but it is a skill that is not very useful. You can only shift yourself, and you can\'t use M! It is often used as a last resort for escape.
What the hell? I thought you could fly wherever you wanted to go.
"Then you can use your warding skills exactly like that. If you master the warding skill you can transfer many people. The shrine of the great princess is part of the warding..."
What\'s that? Say it quickly! I\'ll have to ask Gon to explain his skills in detail. I can\'t help but feel like I\'m holding on to something valuable.
While I was thinking this, the space around Posehay started to warp. I looked closely and saw that my fellow Poseidonians had moved into the space. As soon as Posehay, who is the largest among them, finishes shifting, he cries out in a loud voice.
"I came here for a rescue signal and found Lyonna! What the hell is going on!
I clear the contents of Posehay\'s wards as he writhes about. He is drenched in sweat, limp and motionless.
Eight Poseidonians were gathered around the Poseidonian called Lyonnais. So this is what it means to act in a group.
"Are you with him? You can take him home with you if you leave quietly."
"What the hell are you! You don\'t think this wound in Lyonnais is caused by you? That\'s impossible! I can\'t believe Lyonna is this badly beaten!
"I don\'t care if it\'s possible or not. I just want to eat. I\'ll let you off the hook for today.
While I\'m talking, a Poseidonian slashes at me. The moment I slash at it, I trap it in a ward and make the temperature of its contents skyrocket. In an instant, Posehay is engulfed in fire and disappears like a piece of extinguished charcoal.
"Mihiji! I won\'t allow it, I won\'t allow it! Kill it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The big Poseidon commanded loudly. The remaining six began chanting magic. I see this and fire a "scorching bullet" at the chanting Poseidonians. A hole opens in the body of the Poseidonians, and flames burst out from it. They died, not knowing what had been done to them.
"Hey, big guy! I have a lot of questions for you.
"d*mn! Noooooo!"
As soon as I set up the warding, the big Poseidon began to shift. With a desperate scream, he disappeared.
"He... shifted?
"This is the first time I\'ve heard of a Poseidon abandoning his friends and running away. He must have taken a lot of damage, since he transferred from within his master\'s wards.
"I don\'t have a choice. Let\'s ask him."
I approach the wounded woman who is lying on the ground. Gon and Meirias follow behind. The woman does not move, but when I get close to her, she slowly looks up.
"Is that a big one one of yours? It looks like he abandoned her and ran away."
She looks at me and smiles. At that moment, there is a flash of light and an explosion.
"Oh shit!"
Reflexively, I hugged Meilias. Her fluffy hair and the fur on her arms felt good.
I look back and there is nothing there but the same meadow as usual.
"I blew myself up! I never thought I could explode by myself.
Gon is strangely impressed. Looking closely, he sees a sword on the grassy field. I picked it up and examined it,
Leather sword: A sword that sharply cuts through all matter.
It is a very sharp sword. The blade is beautiful.
It\'s the sword I made.
As I gazed at the sword, Meilius muttered to himself.
"Looks pretty sharp. It\'s a nice sword.
"I was told to make a sword that could cut through the air. But that would require a huge amount of M! But to do so, he had to pour in a huge amount of M! Somehow, M! I was trying to come up with a formula to conserve M!
M!? I\'ve got plenty of it. In the meantime, I\'m just going to make M! I\'m going to try to pour M! I imagine that I\'m pouring the M! The M! It seems that more and more M! I keep pouring more and more M! The sword blade starts to glow blue. Meirias looks at the scene with rounded eyes.
About 10,000 M! When he poured about 10000 M! of the sword seems to be full. The sword is now as beautiful as a polished mirror. Unexpectedly, Meirias said "It\'s so beautiful...". When the sword was examined again, the following information was displayed.
Holy Sword: A sword that cuts through all matter and space. It is especially sharp against evil.
...It seems that the holy sword is ready. Are you sure about this?
Wordlessly, I hand the sword to Meirias. Meilius stares at the blade as if he is devouring it, and looks around as if he is licking it over and over again.
"How did you get this? Alloy compounding? No, I changed the formula to a quosh method to incorporate... No, not the formula... What is that? Is the gum grass burned off? Huh? Huh?"
The sight of a beautiful girl mumbling to herself while staring at the sword with her eyes wide open is quite frightening.
"Meilias, anyway, that sword is bare, could you make a sheath or something for it? It doesn\'t have to be right now. For materials... we can go back tomorrow. I\'m hungry. Let\'s eat!
With Meilius holding the sword with great care and Gon yawning with hunger, I headed for the mansion.
