ㅤ
The attack of the Sorcerer King pierced through Marie’s abdomen.
ㅤ
『Witch-sama. . . . . .!!!!』
ㅤ
Ose jumps in.
Generating a fog of poison, he sprays it at the Sorcerer King.
ㅤ
“Tch. . . . . . A smoke screen?!”
ㅤ
Taking the opportunity, Marie severs the arm of the Sorcerer King with her Wind Blade.
ㅤ
She distances herself from the spot using flying magic.
ㅤ
『Hey, are you okay?!』
ㅤ
Ose hastily asks while perched on Marie’s shoulder.
It’s the first time anyone has seen this witch take damage.
ㅤ
“No problem.”
ㅤ
Marie wipes the blood spewing from her mouth and pulls out the Sorcerer King’s arm.
She immediately heals her wound with healing magic.
While relieved that Marie is okay, he also feel a shudder towards the Sorcerer King who managed to injure her.
ㅤ
“To think he could harm the invincible Witch. . . . . .”
“He’s quite good.”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King quickly detoxifies and grins.
ㅤ
“That’s right. I’d be in trouble if you died so easily!”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King closes in at an incredible speed.
Marie employs multiple layers of magic with her Elderberry Divine Wand.
ㅤ
As he breaks through the magical layers with his bare hands, the Sorcerer King closes in.
ㅤ
“Hmph!”
ㅤ
He releases a thrust aimed at her abdomen.
Instead of blocking, Marie dodges by twisting her body.
ㅤ
“Rah. . . . . .!”
ㅤ
Thinking she’s dodged, the Sorcerer King lands a kick on Marie’s face, sending her flying.
ㅤ
『Witch-sama!』
ㅤ
As Marie gets blown away, Ose is also sent flying due to inertia.
ㅤ
“Witch. Your magical skill is remarkable. Worthy of praise. . . . . . but,”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King sighs in disappointment.
ㅤ
“You’re too physically weak.”
ㅤ
Indeed, the Sorcerer King’s brute strength and Marie’s magic are in equilibrium.
However, the Sorcerer King has an advantage.
ㅤ
Hand-to-hand combat.
Marie doesn’t have much in the way of physical attacks.
ㅤ
On the other hand, the Sorcerer King has honed his body into a weapon.
A robust body that has been sharpened through countless battles and hand-to-hand encounters.
ㅤ
No matter how balanced their powers are, she will lose due to the difference in physical combat.
ㅤ
“I suppose you have body-strengthening spells, but let’s see you use them.”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King approaches.
Marie doesn’t show it on her face. . . . . . but,
ㅤ
Her hand grips the wand tightly.
Meanwhile, Ose exhales a cloud of poison, creating a smokescreen.
ㅤ
『Run, Witch-sama!』
“Don’t do anything unnecessary.”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King swings his fist at an alarming speed.
The cloud of poison clears instantly.
ㅤ
Kicking the annoying Ose away. . . . . .
ㅤ
“Well, shall we continue our duel?”
ㅤ
With a kick off the ground, the Sorcerer King closes in again.
Marie deploys a barrier. . . . . .
ㅤ
“Trying to be fancy?”
ㅤ
The Sorcerer King breaks through the barrier.
The barrier fails to repel his fist.
ㅤ
“Hmph!”
“Gah. . . . . .!”
ㅤ
Marie attempts to guard his punch with her wand, but the wand is shattered, and she takes damage.
ㅤ
She’s sent flying with immense force.
Just when she’s about to crash into a building,
ㅤ
『Witch-sama!』
ㅤ
Someone embraces her from behind.
However, that doesn’t stop their momentum, and they both crash into the wall.
ㅤ
“Kaito!!!!”
ㅤ
Caught between herself and the building was Kaito, the animal-eared chef.
Thanks to him serving as a cushion, she escaped without any major injuries.
ㅤ
However, as for Kaito. . . . . .
ㅤ
“Ehehe. . . . . . Have I. . . . . . served the Witch-sama’s. . . . . . purpose. . . . . .?”
ㅤ
Due to the impact just now, he had sustained severe damage.
His arm was bent in an odd direction, and he was coughing up blood.
Cough, cough! Every time he coughed, blood spurted out.
ㅤ
It seemed that the broken bones were damaging his internal organs.
ㅤ
“Thank goodness. . . . . . you’re safe. . . . . .”
“Kaito! No, no! Don’t die!”
“It’s. . . . . . fine. There are. . . . . . many chefs. . . . . . who can. . . . . . replace me. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Marie shook her head vigorously.
ㅤ
“There’s no one who can replace you!!!! You’re the only one in the world who perfectly caters to my whims and makes delicious food!”
ㅤ
Marie, for the first time. . . . . .
Used her power for something other than herself.
ㅤ
She attempted to cast healing magic on Kaito. . . . . . That’s when it happened.
ㅤ
Snap. . . . . .! Kaito’s body started to glow brightly.
ㅤ
“Is he trying to transform by absorbing my magical power? What is this. . . . . .?”
ㅤ
What stood there was. . . . . .
A giant wolf.
ㅤ
With beautiful fur, it emitted a divine light.
ㅤ
“Could it be. . . . . . the divine wolf Fenrir. . . . . .? Kaito, you were Fenrir?”
