[Silver Ash] - Become The Strongest In Another World
CHAPTER 164: Cryll Rescue Act (21)

...****************...

"Well, for now .. I'll try to use this."

Noelle swung the spear several times, and then stuck it on the ground.

It was the spear that Barsio used to attack him, so Noelle already understood his strength. But, when he tried to activate his ability, the spear did not respond.

Now he was absolutely certain that the spear was a star weapon. Because basically, star weapons could only be used by those who were worthy of using them.

"So this will be of no use to me … "

Noelle let out a sigh of resignation and released the spear. Originally, he had really hoped to put that spear into his collection. But, seeing how the spear did not respond at all, it was clear that Noelle would not need it.

"If you really don't need it .. At least try to keep that bastard from getting his spear back."

Cryll gave his response from the side. Although she has bandages wrapped around some of her limbs, Cryll looks fine. In addition, he was also wrapped in skeletal armor from his senjats, Geist.

"It will be troublesome ..《Throne Road》no effect on him … "

Noelle felt she heard Norman say something, but she would pretend not to hear it for now.

"Just to make sure. Noelle, you already have a way to defeat her, right? "

Norman asked her in a voice that sounded somewhat anxious. If Noelle herself did not even have a way to defeat Barsio, then it was finished already.

"It is only necessary to cut off his head, or stab his heart. That is if he has a heart. Sounds easy, right? "

" … Yes, at least it sounds easy, but … "

"It's a little hard to execute, huh .." said Cryll to continue Norman's unfinished sentence.

Noelle shrugged her shoulders for a while, and immediately took a stance of the horses with Langen in both hands.

"Although you guys protest .. In the end, that's the only way we can do it! "

Finished saying that, Noelle's figure instantly disappeared from their sight. Now he looks to be running very ce0at far ahead.

"Well, he's right."

Cryll closed his eyes while putting both of his hands into his pants pocket, then his lips naturally moved to tidy up the skill that had been his mainstay all along.

"《Accel》"

Cryll's figure instantly disappeared, and appeared beside Noelle. Now, there's only Norman alone left there.

" … I hope this will be okay … "

His slightly hoarse voice made anyone who heard him would definitely understand everything he was feeling right now. And that way, the Norman figure could not be found where it stood before.

...****************...

explosions were everywhere, sparks appearing with them seemed to be dotting the sky, while black smoke began to appear in place of the beautiful white clouds.

Slash after slash, and the crisp sound of metal clanking colliding with each other, became the background music for all of those events.

None of the brands made a sound when attacking. They just continued to look for gaps in the opponent's defense, and attacked blindly, while the opponent himself could only fend off or avoid all that.

Noelle swung Langen with a slightly brutal move right towards Barsio's stomach, but Barsio managed to dodge it by jumping backwards.

However, even so, no one would want to just let go of it.

Norman fired a magic bullet with a high level of concentration right at Barsio, making Barsio only able to forcefully move his body to dodge all the bullets. But again, he was trapped.

Some of the hovering swords seemed to be pointing the tip right at him, and made Barsio pause for a moment.

Right now, his position was still hovering a few centimeters above the ground, and if he were to land, he would definitely go straight into a lying position so as not to be able to dodge all of those swords.

Barsio realized that, which is why he chose to take another path.

Barsio turned around and faced the ground, then his right hand he pointed forward, so that his palm touched right on the ground. Of course, Barsio didn't stop there.

He instantly grasped the ground that was there, and drained his magic energy inside.

Instantly, several sharp thorns made of stone appeared right in front of Noelle, with the sharp part pointing right at her face.

Noelle reflexively jumped back. That movement alone was enough to crush his concentration, so all the swords that had previously targeted Barsio were now just dropped and lying on the ground.

Barsio took advantage of an opportunity that might only happen during that split second to roll forward, and took a position with the short sword in his left hand.

However, it was clear that the opportunity in question would not come easily.

Lightning strikes began to appear, and made Barsio move again as quickly as possible to avoid it, but it was clear that the lightning strike had a speed that was far more terrifying than Barsio.

Barsio did not have time to avoid one of the lightning strikes, and immediately fell before finally rolling on the ground, until it hit a tree quite hard.

"What the fuck .. I didn't know that bastard could use magic."

Noelle used her arm to wipe away the blood flowing at the corner of her lips. The blood came from his tongue which was accidentally bitten as he jumped to avoid the ground thorns of Barsio.

Meanwhile, Barsio quickly recovered himself. He immediately woke up and wiped away the blood that was flowing freely on the part of his head.

"The bastard ... The lightning is so much faster than before. No. .. Maybe it's just me being slower .. This barrier is troublesome .. This person's main body is already destroyed, I can't improve her abilities any further … "

He muttered that vague sentence while raising his weapon.

Anyone could see that he was in an unfortunate situation. Despite that, he still fought, and somehow had to defeat those three opponents.

"I don't think there's any other way .. I have to get that spear back immediately."

A moment after he muttered that, several large, pitch-black tentacles began to grow from his back, tearing apart the robes and clothes that had been protecting him all along.

The tentacles look so disgusting. The surface is slimy, and gives off black smoke that is very uncomfortable to look at.

Despite that, Barsio looked even more relieved as he took out the tentacle.

All of the tentacles then bend in different directions, before finally hardening with the tip becoming taper.

And that way, Barsio's preparations are complete. He instantly advanced at a terrifying speed, and instantly appeared right before Cryll.

Cryll did not have time to respond because the effect of《Accel》 which increases the perception speed has been exhausted. His eyes were really having a hard time just to track Barsio's movements.

With his reflexes, Cryll immediately uses Geist to become a shield that protects his body. However, that alone would not be enough to stop Barsio's attack.

Barsio clenched his hand, and dealt a simple blow to Cryll's face.

Cryll was immediately thrown back as an effect, but was soon caught by Noelle using her blood formed like a tree root.

Noelle cast healing magic on Cryll, then returned it to its original position.

"Sorry, I'm off guard."

"No problem. Most importantly ... What the fuck is that bastard ... Is he mutated? "

"What's going on?! "

Norman approached them and prepared with Aligma in his hand. He looked confused by the sudden change in situation, but did not lower his status in the slightest.

While still questioning his saturation, Norman had prepared to fire at any time with Aligma. The problem is, he can not find the figure of Barsio.

It's not like he's missing or anything. It would be more appropriate to say that his movements were too fast so that his eyes were unable to follow.

And while Norman was still trying to catch Barsio's figure with his eyes, he felt something very hard had hit his stomach.

Norman widened his eyes and instantly vomited blood from his mouth.

His body was thrown quite far back, and landed on the ground not far from the rubble of the building.

"Cryll's! "

"I know! "

Cryll instantly coats her own body with Geist, while Noelle jumps high up and utilizes gravity magic to lighten her own body.

However, it was futile.

Noelle could see Barsio, but he did nothing to overcome his attack.

Barsio used his legs and kicked Noelle's waist, until finally Noelle herself bounced to fall very hard to the ground.

He did not feel any pain from it, but it was still shocking to see someone capable of giving him that much injury.

But the worst is not that. Actually, Noelle had no time to put the spear into his spatial storage, and the spear was biarched on the ground. Now Noelle regretted her carelessness.

(Collateral .. )

It was not usual for Noelle to act recklessly like this, so she herself was even confused by what had actually happened to her.

Barsio's figure earlier, had some tentacles growing from his body. It was very similar to another form of Barsio that he found in the room with Rico.

Noelle with her body that felt very heavy trying to wake up, and saw that Barsio had regained his spear.

"Fuck you Noelle."

Noelle chided herself in silence. He tried to stand up and with his blood picked up Norman's body lying helplessly on the ground

"Wake up, you stupid Prince," Noelle said as she provided a healing magic that accelerated Norman's regeneration, as well as giving a small shred of lightning-elemental magic to wake him up.

Norman awoke and immediately stood with Aligma, but he was immediately startled by Barsio's figure who had re-attached his spear.

"Noelle! "

"I'll hear your protest later. For now, I myself am still trying to digest the situation."

Barsio won already regained his spear, but the tentacles that had previously grown from his body had now disappeared and could not be found anywhere.

"Wasting such a drastic increase in strength just for the sake of a spear .. Are you stupid? "

Noelle asked for information, but Barsio was not as stupid as he thought.

"You won't understand it. That's why, die! "

Barsio again stuck his spear into the ground, and made dozens of spears start to grow around Noelle.

Noelle jumped up to avoid that, but was immediately startled by Barsio's figure suddenly appearing before her.

Barsio kicked Noelle so that Noelle fell down, and would soon land on all those extremely sharp spears.

However, Noelle immediately fixed her position in the air, and pulled Langen to destroy all of the spears, until she was finally able to land safely on the ground.

Meanwhile, Barsio who was still in a state of freefall in the air was not at all surprised when he saw the action of Noelle. He knew that Noelle would not be defeated with just that little trick, so he had already prepared himself for another attack.

However, as yet he had no time to improve his position in the air, a lightning bolt suddenly appeared and struck his body.

"I hope you don't forget me."

Cryll put on that wry smile, while the long sword in his hand was directed to where Barsio was before.

"Why are you attacking now? "

Noelle was a little irritated, but she actually knew the reason why Cryll very rarely contributed in giving Barsio an attack.

"You should know that I can't use Geist powers recklessly, right? "

"Heh, sure."

" … What is it? "

Of all of them, only Norman did not understand the reason. It was natural, after all Norman did not have any information on the Sword Geist that Cryll had. So it was natural for him to feel confused.

Cryll understands that, and is happy to help explain.

"You know that I can take down the lightning with Geist, right? In that case, you should know what kind of impact my attack will have on everything around the target."

Norman quickly understood. He nodded and went back to prepare with Aligma, as if he was already uninterested in the topic.

The conclusion is very simple. Cryll just doesn't want Noelle or Norman to be hit by a lightning strike from Geist. Because Geist lightning was not magic, it lowered a natural phenomenon that had absolutely nothing to do with magic.

Resistance to magic would have no effect in dampening the effects of his attacks.

"Okay, let's finish the conversation. The bastard had already obtained his weapon, and could attack at any time now."

And right after Noelle said that, a spear emerged from the ground, piercing right at her arm that moved following her words.

"seen? I told you, didn't I? "

Cryll and Norman just put on a wry smile, and instantly prepared with their weapons. While Noelle immediately kicked and broke the spear into two parts.

He forcefully pulled out the spear that stuck in his arm, and threw it forward with all his might.

Not stopping there, he also directly advanced while preparing to attack using Langen.

Behind him, Norman provided support by firing a magic bullet towards the spot where Barsio was.

When Barsio's tentacles disappeared, his speed and strength instantly reduced drastically. It made them all think that the tentacles would give him a very drastic strengthening effect. But, Barsio chose to unleash that power, and put his spear first.

There must be something that caused that to happen. That's certain.

Once he found Barsio's figure, Noelle immediately swung Langen with all her might, which Barsio immediately avoided.

Langen's sharp tip stuck very firmly on the ground due to the momentum, but did not stop Noelle from continuing to attack.

Noelle let go of Langen, and with her right hand pulled Verstand with a gesture she had done so many times.

Verstand's blade managed to slash Barsio's stomach, but it won't be of much use. Noelle already knew that Barsio had no internal organs in his stomach, so Noelle immediately released Verstand once the blade had passed through the abdomen.

With his free left hand, he then pulled Langen stuck to the ground, and slammed the sword with all his might towards Barsio.

Langen's sharp blade landed right on Barsio's shoulder, and dug straight down until Barsio's left arm slipped from his body.

Barsio was seen grimacing in pain, but he still had time to jump back so that the wounds he received did not become worse.

"Haha! Get you, motherfucker! "

Cryll suddenly appeared behind him and swung his sword diagonally thus creating a very deep slash mark on Barsio's back.

Doesn't stop there. Cryll also swung the two swords held by Geist in each hand, and managed to land another strike on Barsio's back.

"You jerk boys—"

He had not yet finished his words, his mouth was immediately struck by something so loud that it shattered his jaw.

"Tch, miss."

It was a magic bullet that Norman fired using Aligma.

Norman again fired several magic bullets which then landed all over Barsio's body.

Hand, leg, stomach, thigh, face, ears, chest. All of those parts seemed to be in a very terrible state after getting a magic bullet attack from Norman.

However, none of the attacks Norman gave that inflicted fatal wounds on Barsio.

That was evidenced by Barsio still being able to retreat and heal all his wounds, before finally coming back to attack them.

Several spears started popping around the three of them, making them reflexively move to avoid them.

Barsio was truly already skilled at controlling that weapon. It could be seen from how he used all those spears so effectively.

Noelle was slightly cornered when several other spears appeared in the place she was going to use as a landing spot.

Fortunately, he managed to use his own blood to make a foothold that he used to float in the air. That way, he managed to dodge all of Barsio's spears.

However, different circumstances afflict Cryll and Norman.

Since this fight began, Cryll is in a physical state that is not good so the maneuver becomes a little stiff and limited. It made him unable to dodge all of Barsio's spears.

One of the spears managed to hit the soles of his feet and inflicted a wound on him.

The wound wasn't too deep, it probably just felt like it was stuck in a small nail. It was because Barsio's spearhead had been stopped by the hard soles of his shoes.

Norman himself had also managed to avoid fatal injuries.

He swung Langen's razor blade and smashed all those spears so that no one could hurt him.

"Tch."

Barsio clicked his tongue, and directly advanced himself to attack directly. All of his stockpile of lances had been taken out, and now he had to use them for a while until he could use those abilities again. For the three of them, this was the perfect opportunity.

Noelle immediately advanced and directly resisted Barsio's attack with her sword, while Cryll appeared and gave a slash to the neck that Barsio could then avoid with relative ease.

However, Cryll also directly moves his legs to kick Barsio's chin which has absolutely no protection, so Barsio finally bites his own tongue until it breaks.

Perhaps due to shock, or whatever it was, Barsio looked in pain and instantly covered his mouth with his own hands. The piece of his tongue fell to the ground, and turned into black mud which was then absorbed into the ground.

Noelle noticed that, but didn't have time to do anything. All he did was continue to give Barsio a blind strike, while Norman helped by firing a magic bullet towards his back.

Barsio jumped back and prepared with his spear using one hand, but it was clearly a careless act.

Norman appeared before him and gave a slash using Aligma towards Barsio's arm.

Barsio's arm was instantly severed, and fell to the ground with the spear.

Unlike his tongue just now, Barsio's arm did not turn into black mud.

It continued to be there until Barsio finally took it himself for the sake of regeneration.

Norman almost missed his movement, and directly hit Barsio's chin using the tip of Aligma's handle.

Barsio staggered backwards as an effect. Noelle suddenly appeared behind him and pierced his chest using Langen.

The blade of the sword very easily and smoothly entered Barsio's body, and penetrated into the surface on the other side of his body.

There really is no obstacle. Barsio did not have a rib that could withstand Langen's puncture.

There is no heart there either.

Noelle tried to confirm it by sliding her sword to inflict a terrible cut on Barsio's chest.

Blood continued to gush out from there, but Noelle did not stop.

He repeatedly moved his sword and ruffled everything in Barsio's body. In the end, he did not find his heart.

"Seriously?! How could this man die?! He doesn't even have a heart! "

Noelle kicked Barsio's body forward, and immediately jumped back.

"What to do now … "
