Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 43.1

When I stepped into the hall at the same time as yesterday morning, Mauroni spotted me and grinned.

“You slept well last night, didn’t you?”

The night before last, I had a sleepless night due to anxiety about breaking through the wall in the next day’s operation, but last night, I was able to sleep well without much worry.

“Yes, I slept deeply, even for the wyverns.”

“Ho ho, that’s reassuring. Then let’s settle this in the next battle.”

The soldiers’ harassment of the wyverns was more effective than expected. Wyverns enhance their bodies with magic, so magic attacks and slashing are not very effective.

Even Mauroni’s slashes, which can cut through floating stones, couldn’t inflict deep wounds. Fireballs from fire magic are also nullified, but physical flames from oil and fire are not extinguished and continue to burn the wyverns’ bodies.

Because of their strong defenses, the wyverns don’t wake up until their bodies are scorched and they feel the heat. They react like a cat getting too close to a stove and singeing its fur, but by the time the wyverns wake up, the soldiers have already hidden.

The wyverns, disturbed from their sleep, roared irritably toward the outside from the entrance hall, but they couldn’t find the soldiers and went back to sleep. As long as they aren’t seen, there’s no need to worry about them digging up the ground again.

Once the wyverns started snoring, we shot fire arrows again. Repeating this until past midnight, the wyverns began to sleep deeper in their nests, leaning against the back wall.

At the final strategy meeting, the positions of the two wyverns were also drawn on the floor plan of the entrance hall spread out on the table. Saed began explaining the attack procedure, pointing at the diagram.

“As you can see, both wyverns are sleeping with their bodies against the back wall. Ideally, we’d defeat both with Yuto’s magic.”

“Both of them?”

“Yes. You remember when you split one’s head in two during the initial operation?”

“Yes, that was when Radin-san saved me from nearly being eaten.”

“We’ll do it the same way. First, take down one by splitting its head. If its head is split, it’ll die instantly without making a sound. Then, before the other notices, we’ll take it down too. Just inflict a deep wound anywhere on its body.”

The wyverns were sleeping with their backs to the hole leading outside and their heads against the back wall. The harassment with fire arrows must have been really annoying. This position is perfect for me to attack through the wall.

“From what we’ve learned from the repeated harassment, it seems they sleep more deeply after being frequently awakened.”

According to Saed, the time it takes for the wyverns to wake up after being hit by fire arrows has gradually increased. If the wyverns sleep more deeply, the risk of approaching, even through the wall, is reduced.

“If we enter the lounge adjacent to the hall from the left corridor, we can get directly behind this wyvern.”

“What about confirming the effect of the magic?”

“That’s not possible from here. So, can you cast it consecutively?”

“Hmm… that’s difficult. My magic requires me to see the target. When I use it through a wall, the range is extremely narrow, so it’s hard to attack a distant place.”

“How wide can you adjust it?”

“At most, the width of my face.”

“I see. That’s fine, just cast it consecutively.”

“Understood.”
