If I Had To Say, I Would Say I Am A Evil Magician 171 (Patreon)

Trap

For Asch, he can't completely say that he didn't let his guard down. That was, because he had measured Delta's capability ahead of time. Thinking that the other side showed all their cards. Thinking that he will undoubtedly be able to win if he commences a surprise attack.

Corpses Corpses Corpses.

Thousands of corpses flooding the vicinity, and encircling Asch and Mira under Delta's beck and call.

Reflection Magic.

A Light Magic, which, by matching the element's wavelength, returns the opponent's magic as it is. Because matching that wavelength requires advanced and meticulous adjustment, and you'll end up eating the attack defenselessly if you fail, there are few who use it.

The magic that Asch cast on them as a whole, was returned the exact way it was. Matching the wavelength is not easy, but considering that he apprenticed under Asch for many years, it was one of the possibilities that he should have taken into consideration.

"......Mira, let me hear your opinion, on a breakthrough"

A streak of sweat on the Dark Magician. When it comes to Dark Magic, he, who's a lump of pride, rarely ever asks for an opinion.

"I do not have one right away"

"Kuh......you sure are a useless doll"

Throwing those words out there, Asch readies up again. 'Corpses' are, unexpectedly troublesome. They don't feel any pain even if you mangle them or blow them away, and because they come attacking persistently, you have to use a powerful magic that would blow their entire existence away.

However, they have already been encircled in all four directions, and their distance is also too close. If he casts a Maximus Magic, the damages they themselves take will probably be significant as well.

"Mira, I'll come up with a solution to break through this situation somehow, so do something about it"

"......if I did something about it, wouldn't it be unnecessary to break through this situation?"

"Kuh......having a comeback for everything. What a full-of-excuses doll you are"

"......"

'Aah, words ainー't getting through to this guy', is the competent butler's conclusion.

"Fufu......I have other things prepared as well, so please don't get gassed out before then"

Delta said and laughed.

"......fuu"

Not wanting to lose out, Asch, too, laughed (without any particular meaning).

In the middle of all that, the corpses attack Asch and Mira altogether.

Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da!

With a fury of punches and kicks, Mira blows the corpses' heads away.

All in one strike.

As one would expect, neither could the corpses move when they lose their heads, and the mountain of headless corpses are piling up with them in the centre.

"Fuu......my doll doesn't get exhausted. Let's bury all the thousands of corpses like this. Mira, go"

"......I'm begging you, can you try keeping quiet?"

While throwing those words out there, the competent butler faithfully decimates the corpses' heads with a single fatal strike, and while making use of the wall comprised of corpses, she's putting her body out there, making sure that Asch doesn't get hurt.

"As I thought, her ability is marvellous. For you to break through from the front......I am impressed"

Delta muttered from the bottom of his heart.

"Kukuku......if you spew the location of Estelise, I can still forgive you now"

Asch suggests while laughing.

Of course, it is a lie.

He's in a disadvantageous situation now. His anger for the strong enemy before his eyes had cleared up, and he'd return to the original Asch who comes up with whatever method it takes for the sake of winning. In exchange, the manic Magician renews his determination of, if he wins, he will work him to the bone as his livestock.

"Please don't say something like that......oops, I still have not introduced another one of my secret weapons huh"

Saying that, Delta draws a large arc with his fingertip.

A large white light enveloped, and a single young girl came out.

It was, a familiar figure.

Just her eyes, were in a vacant state.

The smile in Asch's expression disappeared in an instant,

and then,

he muttered.

"Lily＝Schwarz-kun......what are you doing over there"
