Poetic magic.
　It is a spell that is cast in verse. An adventurer who uses poetry magic is classed as a Bard.
　The effect of a poetry spell is limited to the range of the voice (and sometimes the accompaniment), and the wielder must keep singing for the effect to last.
　Compared to ordinary magic, it is a rather troublesome magic, and few people choose the path of poetry magic even if they have a talent for magic. In fact, it lacks versatility.

　However, there is a good reason why it has not fallen into disuse and continues to be used as a fighting technique.
　It is its outstanding buffing performance that leaves others behind.

　The lyre, which is played automatically, sounds even louder when it is infused with magical power.
　It is not limited to a solo lyre performance, but even a heroic orchestral performance can be heard. The aftermath of the power associated with the use of poetic magic. An outpouring of power.
　With the moon on his back, Oswald began to sing sonorously.

"On the silvery earth I love, the fierce wind flies
　Emboldened, fearless, we light the darkness.
Forward!
Forward!
Forward!
May the god of war bless us all!

　The other three sing their own parts, one after the other.
　Poetic magic is not associated with any particular song. In extreme cases, you can use buffs on the elephant, but to get the most out of it, you should choose a song that suits the situation.
　Rene had heard this song somewhere before. It was one of the battle songs sung by knights and soldiers.

　Oswald's forte is to inspire his allies with poetic magic. Oswald is not much of a fighter himself, but the soldiers who hear him sing are reputed to do two or three better.
　Iris, the young adventurer who once haunted Rene, knows of Oswald's power, and so Rene anticipates that Oswald will use poetic magic.
　However, she didn't expect the whole family to sing in chorus. Like ritual magic, in which several people work together to perform a great magic, the more heads there are, the more powerful the poetry magic must be.

　Hadley and Steve, in the vanguard, hung over the narrow corridor with their respective prey in hand, closing in on Rene.

　--The Evil Eye of Enchantment doesn't work: ......

　There is no change in the three men, even though they are clearly looking at each other.
　I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the same thing for all three of them, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the same thing for all three of them. In order to avoid interference, you usually wear only one "resistance accessory". If the accessory is used for charm, the others should be holes, but I think the poetry magic is more suspicious.

I can't believe it!

　Steve, the adventurer-looking guy, is Oswald's third son, and he's an adventurer in the Federation.
　He looks like something between an adventurer and a bandit, and he slams his machete-like sword down on Rene. It's not a fake "consecration", but a magical "consecration", and the shimmer of the blade is unpleasant to Rene.

　A moment later, the blade swung down and cut into Rene's shoulder.
　Rene's body dissipated.

I'm not sure what to say.　Disappeared ......

　The blade that cut through the sky clawed at the mist, and Rene felt a burning pain.
　But he was not intimidated and immediately reconfigured his body behind Steve.
　Rene grabbed his head with his left hand and pierced Steve with the cursed red blade he had created in his right hand. Dullahan form.

　The thrust pierced through the armor like shoji paper, but was stopped by Steve's body.
　The feeling of penetration and an unharmed body.

　--This is the Holy Beast's damage replacement ......!　But where is the holy beast?

　I thought it was the special ability of the holy beast that was reported, but the watchers in the dogfight in the sky did not come crashing down.

　His hesitation was less than a moment. But Hadley had an unusual reaction to this.
　He spun on his heel and thrust his sword at Rene, who was behind him.

"Aah!

　It's a good idea to keep your eyes peeled for the latest developments in the industry. If it had been a big titted loli, it would have been dangerous.

　Hadley reacted as if she had been stabbed. In addition, he aimed precisely at Rene behind him in a wide(er) view.
　Hadley unleashed a series of checks and balances, and Rene retreated, taking them with his red blade. In the meantime, Steve regained his position.

　He thrusts, steps in, scoops up, dispels, and slams. The attacks were sharp, buffed by the poetry magic.
　The two swords attacked Rene without pause, sparks flying as they fought with the red blade. I don't know how much it cost, but it looks like a high quality sword with a high quality magic applied to it, and even when it cut against the red blade, it only damaged the blade and didn't break easily.

　The two of them attacked with a more than perfect combination, without even communicating with each other through eye contact, let alone words.
　The emotions were strange. Like heat, or paint mixing, the 'hostility' of the attack was spreading between them.
　Perhaps the power of poetic magic. Perhaps it was the power of the "unison" option that Oswald had added to his poetry magic.

　And one more.

"Holy Arrow!

　Priscilla, who was waiting at a distance with Oswald, unleashed a sacred magic.
　It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time with your family.
　They were singing together just now, but it doesn't seem to interfere with the use of sacred magic. It seems that Oswald is the one who maintains the poetic magic and the other three are just assisting him.

　Rene bent down and poked his hand.


　He morphed into a vampire and then a wolf.
　Silver fur covered her sharp, clawed hands. The small body shrank further, and Rene became a silver wolf about the size of a Shiba Inu.

"Whoa, it shrunk!

　Rene runs up the corridor, passing between Steve's legs in surprise. ≪The "Holy Arrows" landed one after another and exploded behind Rene.

　--The smell of holy beast blood ...... was particularly strong.

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.
　The carrion of the undead. Human sweat. Iron. Stone. A fire burning somewhere. Snow. Water in the moat. The smell of beast. And the unappetizing smell of (non-human) blood.

　The smell of blood and guts tickles Rene's nose.
　The smell, drifting softly on the wind, was coming from the slit windows for shooting arrows and magic in the tower-like building ...... that is part of the city walls.
　What should have been the entrance was unnaturally filled in, as if it had been painted over.

　Renai had learned her lesson when she had touched Morgana's heart, so she had narrowed down the range of her emotional perception. It seems that Morgana has been taken into custody and transported to Wesara, but there is no guarantee that there is no one else who has also carved the crest.
　This is why I had only deployed my emotion detection to the extent that I could find out the timing of the attack of the person in front of me, but even so, if I get this close, I can detect the emotional reaction stirring in the side protection tower. A flat, mechanical, AI-like emotional response.

　--They're packing holy beasts (extra lives) in here!

　This wall, as usual, draws magic power from the earth's veins to create magical defenses. The same is true for the side towers that are part of it. There are geometric lines of pale light that occasionally pulse.
　Stay within the walls and you'll be safe. The extent of the damage replacement effect is unknown, but if you don't consider the holy beast as an asset, but just as an extra life, this is the best place to hide it.

"We warriors, for whose sake we rise, trample our fate.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

　Hadley and Steve chase after Rene, who has closed the distance. Priscilla followed at a more leisurely pace.
　Oswald comes in with a musical stride, singing loudly. It's a bit surreal in the heat of battle, though I understand that it's meant to keep the song going.

　Renai returns to Dullahan's form before he can catch up.
　He does not create the red blade. Instead, he took out a sword that he had stored with the magic of his "item pouch".
　The blade, which is as beautiful as a silver ridge, emits its own blue and silver light.

I'm not sure what to make of it.
"The magic sword Tayla Ayul?

　A knight of Ciel-Teira ...... or someone born into a knightly family would not mistake this sword for anything else.
　I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you've. The magic sword Teila Ayul.
　It was used by the First Knight Lawrence Reinhardt and is now in the hands of Rene.

　This sword boasts a bullshit cutting power and a bullshit sturdiness. If you add to that the innate swordsmanship and physical abilities of a Dullahan...

"Ahhhh!

　He stepped in with his (light) weight and swung with all his might at Teila Ayul.
　It's a great way to get the most out of your time and money.

"This is ridiculous!

　A voice from behind shouted in astonishment.

"What!

　René throws a front kick at the cut wall, and it blasts into the building, hitting something.

　It's a short time before you realize that creepy men in masks and monks' robes are shooting arrows out of the slit windows.
　What had been a human form a moment ago transformed into a white tiger with golden ornaments and pounced on Rene, spewing nauseating holy air. The tiger-shaped holy beast is the Death Ejector.
　There were originally four of them, but one of them was lying in a pool of blood, looking eerily like something between a man and a beast.

　A golden claw like a cuirass approaches. Golden fangs like part of a mask loom.
　Three tigers. In Rene's hand is a blue and silver magic sword.
　A sidearm. Fangs broken, mouth split open.
　A vertical slash. Crack the head.
　Two slashes in a row. His arm flies off in a thousand pieces.
　It spins like a spinning kick as it passes you. He cuts deep into the torso.

　The three injectors that had jumped at him turned into mere lumps of flesh soaked in holy air in the instant they passed Rene and rolled around, spewing blood.

　I can feel more holy energy there.

"Whoops!

　A dragon with a face like a golden mask was about to plunge its muzzle through the hole Rene had cut.
　A pale light glowing in the back of his throat. A breath of holy air. In this closed sidewall.



　--A place like this should be impervious to magic from the inside out!　≪Short Teleportation!

　Rene teleported to the dark sky that looked thin beyond the chasm.
　A feeling of levitation. Immediately after that.

"Gaaaaaaaah!

　The Illuminator released a breath.
　It blew out from the narrow space between the side towers like the steam from a boiling kettle, and lit up the night sky in white.
　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

It's full of holes!

　You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.
　The small throwing knife touched the golden white dragon and formed a magic circle. The special weapon that rips the Incarnate Holy Beast from the body and repatriates it is .......

　It did no damage whatsoever.

What?
"Holy Arrow!

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　I'm not sure what to make of it. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

The blood that flows becomes fire, my cry becomes a storm.
I will not retreat, I will be unyielding as I step over my fellow man.

　In the midst of Oswald's singing, Rene became silver again and jumped down with Tayla Ayulu in his arms.
　A magic bullet of holy air struck the roof of the side guard tower, turning it into a gooey mess.

　The smell of the blood of the beast that had been burned by the holy air breath rose from the side guard tower just below.
　There is also a different smell of human blood that arouses the vampire's appetite, coming from somewhere in the air.

　--Is some other holy beast taking on the effects of the Wedge of the Fallen?

　If you look around, you'll notice a number of side towers growing on the castle walls.

I don't want to think about it, but it's possible.

　I didn't want to think about it too much, but it was possible.

　Rene jumped down the corridor to find Hadley and Steve ahead of him.

"Come on!

　Only Steve swung his sword at the falling Rene.
　Rene turns into a mist and lands two steps back.
　If you're not sure what you're looking for, you can always ask for help.
　In the next moment, Rene was once again in the form of Dullahan. However, his head was still on top of his severed neck. He produced a cursed red blade while holding the Tayla Ayul, and simultaneously fought off Hadley and Steve, who were slashing at him from both sides.

　After a single attack, Rene realized that he was at a disadvantage. They were equal or better in strength, but they both had the skills of swordsmen. At least in terms of swordsmanship, they were no match for a two-on-one fight.
　Hadley and Steve are slashing at each other from both sides with a perfect time delay. René slid his two swords into each other's hands, then half-turned his body, switched swords, and said

"Whoa!

　He lightly kicks and lifts his head as it rolls off.

　Rene felt a chill run up his spine as the hair on his neck (which had been cut off) stood on end.

　--Breath: ......!

　The head flies into the air, and the illuminator stays where it is, flapping its membrane wings. In the back of his throat is a pale light.
　I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not. ≪A moment after the "short teleport", a breath of holy air swept over the wall, involving Hadley and Steve.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing and how you're going to do it.

"We are one sword!
I'm not going to let you get away with this.
I shall triumph, even if my body decays!

　Rene ran as soon as he was transferred.
　The radiant breaths gradually changed their angle of elevation as they followed Renai. She aims for the next flanking tower, escaping the breath that is closing in behind her.

　As if to block Rene's path, a huge white shadow stood in the way.
　It was another Illuminator that had climbed up the castle wall. Illuminator B, which had taken up a position on the side tower, swung its strong arms with sharp golden claws to check Rene, and took a deep breath.

　--It's a little tough to escape with a transfer. ......

　I'm not sure if you've heard of this, but I'm sure you've heard of it.
　Rene flapped his wings. The vampire's wings rely on magic.
　The vampire's wings have the great advantage of being able to fly without relying on magic,......, which means you can use magic while flying.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　--I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.　If you stack weakening (debuffs) that have a lasting effect,......

　I'm not sure if you'll be able to find the right one for you. Hadley and Steve run through the corridors, cleaving the undead as they climb and kicking down the ladders.
　Rene takes aim at Steve.

"...... <>!

　A net-like energy wave was released from the end of the thrusting Taila Ayur and caught Steve. It's a debuffing spell that weakens and diminishes any power the body exerts.



　And it pops.
　Something small, like a decorative tack, shattered on the belt at Steve's waist.

　--Resistance accessory: ......!

　It's a "resistance accessory". It is a magic item that protects the wearer from so-called abnormal conditions and certain attributes.
　It is a magic item that protects the wearer from so-called abnormal conditions and certain attributes. When it takes effect, there is a certain chance that it will break, but Hadley will immediately get a replacement from somewhere and put it back on.

　--I see, he's well thought out.

　Rene was impressed as if he were someone else.

　If it came down to a battle of resources, Rene would win in the end. But Rene didn't want to prolong the battle. The longer the battle went on, the more damage Rene would do. He could replenish his army with any number of mooks made from civilians, but he had a limited supply of higher-ranked undead materials (i.e. knights and strong soldiers), so he didn't want to lose too many of them in the future.

　--If you want to break the other side's formation, you should go for ......

　After changing direction in midair, Rene rapidly accelerated as if he was kicking against the void.

　--Leader!

　I'm not sure what to do.

"We are one sword!

　I'm not sure if you've ever heard of this, but I'm sure you have.

I'm not sure what to do.

　It's a great way to make sure you don't end up with a lot of problems.
　It's also a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. In other words, she is free to use magic.

I'm not sure what to do.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.
　It's a great way to make sure you don't end up with a lot of problems. And Rene plunged headfirst into the storm of holy air.

"Oh, be noble, my sword!

　There was hostility.
　In Oswald's mind, hostility, a precursor to an attack, rose up.

"I offer myself to be the protector of the Vajra!

　As he sang bravely, Oswald held up a strange weapon.
　It was a thick, tubular object with a handle attached.
　If anything, it was an awkward-looking gun that looked like it could fire a ping-pong ball.

　It fires. Something. Towards Rene. Spherical. Indefinite. Clear.
　That is, some kind of liquid or fluid.

　≪It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing. ≪The "short teleportation" is not available. Rene turns into mist. Her body disperses.
　The "liquid" disperses. It becomes fire.

"Aah!

　The flames entwine with the mist.
　It's hot.
　Hot!
　It's not just heat. It's the power of holy air that scorches Rene's existence as an undead.
　Unable to remain in the mist, Rene reverted to human form and then became a fireball.

　The idea is similar to a flamethrower.
　The idea is similar to a flamethrower, a magic item that shoots out a fuel source, ignites it in midair, and douses the target in flames.
　However, the oil that was loaded in it was different.
　It was "holy oil," oil that had been sanctified in a temple and contained holy energy. Inevitably, the flame born from it would be a "holy fire" that would destroy evil.

　Rene stalled and lost control of his flight.
　Barely flapping her wings, she veered off the city walls and crashed headlong into the moat, sending up a cloud of fire.
　Rene plunged into the cold water of the moat, where the magic of the liches had created a series of icy paths.

　The fire was extinguished with a cloud of smoke, and Rene sank through the fine foam.
　Beyond the shimmering, turbulent surface of the water, he saw the cold moon.
　The residue of the holy air was still eating away at Rene's body, but the cool water felt good on his burned body.

　--I know the enemy's strategy.

　My body is getting lighter.
　The burned flesh melted away, leaving only bones.
　The remains of the clothes that had been charred and stuck to his body floated and scattered.
　In his hand is a cursed staff that looks like it was carved from a crimson gem.

　--I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

　It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your vacation.

　The water is rising. The ice that had bridged the moat broke through and cracked.
　The water in the moat rises up, sucked up by something invisible, like a spiral. Rene was carried away by the current.

　Rene glides up the side of the wall, and his vision opens up.
　Surrounded by water that floated in defiance of gravity, Rene was even higher than the city walls. A large amount of water was sucked up from the moat and gathered like a spiraling snake, accumulating in the air.



　Finally, the moat is empty. Rene, now a body of bones, floats in a giant water ball.
　Oswald and the others can only stare up at it in amazement.

So much for the show. It's rained out.
　I'm not sure if you'll be able to find the right one for you.
