Marie and her team have traveled to the Far East to defeat the Sorcerer King.
Marie, in high spirits after a delicious meal of Bazan.
ㅤ
Suddenly, a Yokai named Ittanmomen appears.
It looked like nothing more than flying cloth.
ㅤ
“What a disappointing Yokai. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Marie had planned to eat the next Yokai as well.
But when only cloth appeared, her mood dropped, unable to consume it.
ㅤ
『Don’t underestimate me! I can fly freely in the sky!』
“Ugh. . . . . .how boring. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Marie can fly too.
So she didn’t see what was so special about Ittanmomen.
ㅤ
“Kaito. Let’s go.”
“Eh, w-wait. . . . . .what about that monster?”
ㅤ
Marie gives it a quick glance and then starts the carriage.
It wasn’t even worth defeating.
ㅤ
For Marie, to defeat means to eat.
ㅤ
『Don’t underestimate me! Take this!』
ㅤ
Ittanmomen flies at high speed.
It then extends its body to wrap around the carriage.
ㅤ
『How about this! My body is stretchable! Now I’ll squeeze you!』
ㅤ
Ittanmomen starts to tighten its grip on Marie’s carriage.
The carriage slowly starts to shrink due to the immense pressure.
ㅤ
『Hahaha! You fools underestimated me just because I’m a flying cloth!』
“We haven’t lost yet.”
『What?!』
ㅤ
Before they knew it, Marie was looking down on Ittanmomen from the sky.
Floating in the air, she sighed with a look of disbelief.
ㅤ
“Why are you so surprised at this?”
『H, how did you escape?!』
“Just a simple teleportation spell.”
『A spell?!』
ㅤ
With teleportation, escaping from the cloth would be possible.
But in this world, magic is a lost art.
『Why can you use magic?!』
“Why wouldn’t I? Because I can.”
『Grrrr!』
ㅤ
Ittanmomen flies at high speed.
This time it tightly wraps around Marie’s face.
ㅤ
『How about now! You can’t cast a spell with your mouth covered!』
ㅤ
But then. . . . . .the next moment, Ittanmomen was sliced into pieces.
ㅤ
『No way. . . . . .was that. . . . . .Hurricane Vacuum Blade. . . . . .a grand magic?!』
ㅤ
A grand wind magic, Hurricane Vacuum Blade.
A tornado filled with blades of vacuum reduced Ittanmomen to dust.
ㅤ
『How did you. . . . . .with your mouth covered. . . . . .』
“I just canceled the chant.”
『No way. . . . . .without chanting. . . . . .that’s impossible.』
ㅤ
As this Yokai says, spells usually require chants.
Using magic without a chant is called “chant canceling,” and it’s a high-level technique.
ㅤ
The higher the rank of the spell, the more difficult it is to use it without chanting.
Using a grand magic spell without chanting is almost miraculous, something only a god could do.
ㅤ
The wind blows, and Ittanmomen disintegrates into the air.
Marie sighs in a melancholic mood.
ㅤ
“Couldn’t eat it. . . . . .”
ㅤ
While all of this was happening above. . . . . .
On the ground, Kaito looks up at Marie with respect.
ㅤ
“You’re amazing, Witch-sama! To defeat such a quick and strong Yokai in one blow!”
“I didn’t defeat it because I wanted to. I just brushed off an irritation.”
ㅤ
The demon Ose sighed deeply.
