“Marcosias, 『Ice Bow』!!”
『Growl!!』
ㅤ
At Lapis’s command, Marcosias creates an 『Ice Bow』 for Lapis.
Grasping the bow, Lapis notches an ice arrow while still mounted on Marcosias.
The enemy is a black wolf named Fafnir. Larger than Marcosias and enveloped in black flames.
ㅤ
“Marcosias, approach!!”
『Roar!!』
ㅤ
Marcosias and Fafnir run side by side.
The location is a grassland. While running, they have traveled quite a distance from the Asgard Kingdom.
Lapis readies her bow and aims at the approaching Fafnir. . . . . .but. . . . . .
ㅤ
『Deep growl!!』
“Ugh━━So hot?!”
ㅤ
Black flames assault both Marcosias and Lapis.
Marcosias produces ice to defend, but the intensity of Fafnir’s flames melts it.
Furthermore, Fafnir is faster.
The reason is Lapis riding Marcosias. Naturally, Fafnir, unburdened, is faster.
ㅤ
『Growl. . . . . .!!』
ㅤ
However, this doesn’t bother Marcosias. It shouldn’t.
Because Marcosias’s top speed is with Lapis on his back.
“Marcosias, 『Ice Dart』!!”
ㅤ
Several ice spears are formed, flying towards Fafnir.
However, Fafnir’s entire body ignites in a sudden blaze, causing the ice spears to evaporate instantly.
And then, with his entire body aflame, Fafnir charges━━aiming for a body slam.
ㅤ
“Dodge!!”
『Whoosh!!』
ㅤ
Fafnir’s flame-fueled charge is faster than expected.
Marcosias leaps to the side. Lapis clings on desperately but gets slightly grazed.
ㅤ
“Ugh. . . . . .?! Ah, it burns?!”
『Yelp?!』
ㅤ
Lapis’s skirt and jacket are slightly singed, and Marcosias’s white fur turns black.
They hurriedly extinguish the flames with ice. Despite minor burns, Lapis ignores it.
Fafnir is turning around. . . . . .with a twisted grin.
ㅤ
“Marcosias, it’s okay for me, dodge with all your might next time. . . . . .okay? Aim for the moment of evasion.”
『. . . . . .whine』
“It’s okay. I won’t be thrown off. . . . . .trust me.”
『. . . . . .』
ㅤ
Marcosias gives a slight nod.
And then━━Fafnir’s entire body burns, repeatedly stomping the ground with his front legs. As if to say 『you can’t escape』, his mouth twisted in a snarl.
Lapis gulps down her fear and clings to Marcosias.
Marcosias growls, lowering his body.
ㅤ
『Thunderous roar!!』
『━━!!』
ㅤ
Fafnir, fully engulfed in black flames, starts running.
Marcosias lowers his body even more.
And then━━just before Fafnir’s charge connects, Marcosias leaps to the side.
ㅤ
“Ugh━━!!”
ㅤ
Due to the force, Lapis almost gets thrown off.
But she resists.
No longer the frail girl she once was. As the S-class summoner Lapis Lazuli, she gathers her resolve.
Lapis releases her grip on Marcosias, stands on him, and readies her bow.
Aiming at Fafnir’s legs.
Lapis is skilled with swords, spears, and bows. She’s trained for a long time.
ㅤ
“Hit it. . . . . .!!”
ㅤ
An ice arrow is released.
Fafnir is still facing away.
He hasn’t finished turning around yet.
The arrow hits━━.
ㅤ
“Huh. . . . . .?!”
『!!』
ㅤ
However. . . . . .Lapis’s arrow melted and evaporated.
An arrow made with considerable icy power melted effortlessly.
This means, Fafnir surpasses the power of Marcosias.
『Black Flame』 surpasses the power of 『Freezing』.
ㅤ
“Impossible. . . . . .”
『Growl!!』
“Ah, Ma, Marcosias━━dodge.”
ㅤ
The next moment━━Fafnir spewed a mass of flames from its mouth.
Marcosias created a wall of ice, but the wall shattered.
And then, the flames hit Marcosias directly. . . . . .Lapis was thrown away.
ㅤ
“Eeekk?!”
『Gasp. . . . . .?!』
ㅤ
Rolling on the ground, both Lapis and Marcosias were rendered immobile.
