Chapter 213: -210- Let's gamble on this
Engulfed in the pitch-black smokescreen within the Audience Chamber, a different color finally appeared at this moment.
It was a highly ominous shade of purple.
The source of the purple was fire.
Like the flame from the Netherworld that slumber beneath the earth, the purple flames erupted grandly in mid-air. They created waves of heat, distorting the air and warping the field of view. Even the dark smokescreen was blown away by the explosion's force.
"Ugh...!"
Rozen let out a muffled groan.
Despite evading the grand explosion in advance, Rozen was still caught in the shockwave. Although he had deployed a "Magic Defence" shield in front of himself to protect from harm, the force still blew him away.
"Senpai!"
Mash became slightly panicked.
"Master!"
Jeanne was equally surprised.
"Don't worry about me!"
Rozen, however, didn't allow his Servants to come and protect him. He shouted at them.
"Keep going!"
An unquestionable command made the two girls grit their teeth. They no longer hesitated and shattered the "Magic Defence" shields beneath their feet once again, using the force to charge toward the Demon God Pillar.
Lev, on the other hand, didn't care anymore.
"Let's see if those two Servants reach me first, or if a mere human can escape from my grasp first."
Lev sneered, causing the eyes on the Demon God Pillar's body to revolve once more, fixating on Rozen's direction.
"...!?"
An eerie sensation once again emerged within Rozen's heart, causing him to exert his telekinetic control over his body. He resisted the blast and simultaneously initiated a new spell.
"〈Summon Giant Fowl〉!"
A massive eagle was summoned. With a sharp screech, it flew out from a magic circle that suddenly spun. After describing a graceful arc in mid-air, it landed behind Rozen and caught him.
Rozen then jumped onto the eagle's back and controlled it. Without any concern for his safety, he flew towards a distant location.
"Bang————!"
The grand explosion formed from the purple flames immediately appeared where he had been moments ago. The sound of the explosion turned into sound waves, along with the flames, expanding in all directions.
Rozen, riding the eagle, evaded the second attack. However, he was still blown away by the shockwaves from the explosion.
"Screech!"
The eagle under Rozen emitted a mournful cry.
Clearly, as a mere mid-tier familiar, it was too much of a stretch for it to be on this battlefield.
"Just endure it a bit longer."
Rozen reassured the eagle under him. He infused magical energy into it through his connection, allowing the familiar to stabilize its form by flapping its wings, and it once again soared into the sky.
This scene naturally did not escape Lev's notice.
"Let's see how long you can hold out!"
In his icy declaration, the countless eyes on the Demon God Pillar's body rolled continuously.
"Bang————!"
"Bang————!"
"Bang————!"
Suddenly, within the Audience Chamber, consecutive grand explosions continued to erupt, making the deafening sound of explosions unceasing in the ears.
The explosions formed by the purple flames continued to appear in the direction the eyes on the Demon God Pillar were fixated upon. The waves of flames surged, the shockwaves persisted, and the entire space trembled.
Each explosion's power was enough to gravely injure even the most durable of Servants.
The forceful shockwaves from each explosion created ripples that swept through the vast chamber.
Rozen managed to evade all the attacks due to a combination of his intuition and skills.
After all, the Demon God Pillar's attacks had no precursor. Any location the eyes fixated upon would instantly trigger a burst of purple flames.
Rozen couldn't detect such an attack even with his "Heaven's Eye" ability as backup. He could only rely on his eerie sensation to dodge.
Of course, without the skill to manipulate his familiar, Rozen wouldn't be able to avoid the wide-ranging and powerful explosions, despite having that eerie feeling.
So, it was truly half intuition and half skill.
Although Rozen appeared unsteady and faced extreme danger, he managed to skillfully avoid each explosion.
"How annoying!"
Lev's voice began to carry a tone of annoyance.
It seemed that the ongoing inability to capture Rozen was causing Lev to grow impatient.
In reality, Rozen was becoming anxious as well.
"My magical energy has been depleted quite a bit..."
Balancing the supply of magical energy to his Servants, supporting them in battle, and using "Summoning" to assist himself, all of this had caused significant energy expenditure. If not for using Command Seals, Rozen's magical energy wouldn't have been enough to sustain it all.
"Now, less than thirty percent of my magical energy remains."
Rozen took a deep breath and gritted his teeth.
"Let's gamble on this!"
Rozen made a bold decision.
"Screech!"
The faltering eagle amidst the flames and blasts suddenly seemed to receive an order. It emitted a sharp cry and abruptly changed direction, shooting forward.
The direction it headed was toward the location of the Demon God Pillar.
"Rushing to your own death?!"
Lev laughed angrily.
The next moment, all the eyes on the Demon God Pillar's body shifted to the front. They fixed their gaze on the young man riding atop the eagle that was hurtling toward them.
"Die!"
With the pronouncement, purple flames burst forth, seemingly appearing out of thin air in the space, enveloping the youth on the eagle's back and triggering the largest explosion so far.
"Boom!"
Under the deafening roar, Rozen was engulfed by the purple flames.
It was a point-blank attack.
Statistically speaking, there was no possibility of luck now.
However...
"Swoosh!"
The purple flames were abruptly sliced apart.
From within, the young man riding atop the eagle continued to fly towards the target without any reduction in speed.
"What...!?"
This time, Lev was finally surprised.
The Demon God had completely failed to notice.
Upon Rozen's shoulder, a cute little red mouse had appeared.
It was the "Fire Rat" that Rozen had summoned. It enables him to be immune to all fire damage.
However, the Fire Rat couldn't protect Rozen from the impact of the explosion.
As a result, Rozen had sustained numerous injuries, and several of his telekinetic shields had been shattered.
Yet, Rozen seized this moment of Lev's astonishment.
"A perfect opportunity!"
Rozen's magical energy surged.
"〈Summon Giant Wolves〉!"
One after another, magic wolves were summoned. They leaped from mid-air and pounced toward the Demon God Pillar's direction.
These magic wolves, one by one, jumped onto the Demon God Pillar's body, much like trying to block its eyes, they clung to all of the eyes on the Demon God Pillar.
"Playing petty tricks won't help...!"
Lev, now aware, shouted angrily. Just as he was about to blast all the pests off his body, Rozen yelled.
"Now's the time!"
Two girls responded to Rozen's shout.
"Yes!"
Mash and Jeanne finally arrived before the Demon God Pillar.
"Hum!"
Accompanied by a hum, Rozen's magical energy turned into telekinesis, enhancing Mash's shield and also enhancing the tip of Jeanne's flag. They projected razor-sharp invisible blades.
"Haaa----!"
With the exuberant cries of the two girls, the shield and the flag enhanced with "Magic Resilience" , stabbed into the Demon God Pillar's body.
"------!"
Amidst the synchronized tearing sounds, the telekinetic blades pierced through the flesh of the Demon God Pillar.
"——! ——!"
The Demon God Pillar emitted a horrifying scream of agony.
