Well then, I return my gaze to the front.
A few dozen seconds ago, I finally caught sight of the two people dressed entirely in black.
I found it suspicious that there were two people, so I activated the detection magic again, but there was still only one magical response.
“A combination of Star Stella class and Stardust Dust is quite rare. What kind of people are they?”
In my line of sight, there are two people riding horses while using “Mamatoten.”
Dolly-chan is going at around 200 kilometers per hour, so at this rate, she’ll catch up in a few minutes.
“For now, running away means they’re the enemy, right?”
I have identified the two people in all black as enemies.
The movement occurred when the distance to the two people dressed in all black closed to a few hundred meters.
Of the two, Hoshikuzu Dust suddenly turned around and began to head northeast.
From my perspective, it looks like it’s coming towards us while slightly veering to the right.
“What on earth are you planning? Are you trying to be a decoy?”
Even if there are two people of the Stella-class, on the other hand, the one who has left is Stardust.
“Well, if that’s the case, I’ll just take you down with ‘intimidation’.”
At this distance, we probably don’t need the “Intimidation Orb.”
When the horse is made to faint, it might die from the fall, but stardust isn’t a high priority.
When I performed “Intimidation,” a powerful wave of magical energy spread from me, directly hitting the horseman covered in stardust.
However, I was taken aback by the next event that unfolded.
“Sniff…”
“Intimidation!?”
Although I had knocked the horse out, the entity that seemed to be stardust, incredibly, remained calm and conscious despite my “intimidation.”
He leaped off the unconscious horse with a light movement and landed silently on the ground.
“Huh?”
I couldn’t believe what I saw and unleashed “intimidation” again, but it didn’t seem to have any effect.
That means I didn’t fail at “intimidation.”
The figure clad in black, without hesitation, began to dash towards the direction of Ortenatris at a speed so fast that one might wonder, “Was a horse necessary?”
(What was that speed… comparable to a Stella-class starship, no, even faster?)
Letting someone who knows my true abilities go like this is not good.
I wanted to keep them as prisoners, but at this point, I don’t care anymore.
“Erasing the unknown stardust that can nullify my ‘intimidation’ and possesses incredible physical abilities would be safer for my mental health… When I thought about this, one thing came to mind.”
“……Ah, damn it, so you’re the hero!”
Come to think of it, among the “heroes,” there were those who didn’t possess star-stella-level magic but had their natural physical abilities drastically enhanced.
I grimace as if biting into a bitter bug, realizing it was completely off my radar.
“Then, shall I cast a moderately strong spell?”
I gather my magical power and create a fireball in my right hand.
If you shrink it down to the size of a marble, it becomes a tiny, pure white sun-like object.
Long-range bombing magic.
Even though it’s called long-range, it can only reach about one or two kilometers, but its area firepower is top-notch.
It is an orthodox siege magic that nobles have used since ancient times.
“Sorry, I’ve been told not to go easy on you when I meet the hero.”
If there is only one enemy of the nobility, it is said to be the “demon beasts” and the “heroes.”
Both have killed an immeasurable number of nobles, so while the former is somewhat tolerated, the latter is treated like cockroaches, being killed on sight.
I take aim and unleash this small yet immense ball of energy.
Since I can’t use “detection magic,” I can’t do precise shots, but if I sweep through the area, it won’t be a problem.
“Ugh, no way! Wait, wait! I didn’t mean to oppose you, nya…!”
The marble-sized sun traced an arc and struck the ground.
Just before that, I thought I heard something from the black-clad hero running in the distance, but I don’t know.
The pure white sun erupted with a tremendous roar, creating a massive mushroom cloud.
The shockwave repeatedly blows away the surrounding trees, and a violent storm rages.
“Alright, first up is the first person.”
If I were to live like this, I’d be at my wit’s end.
Even if they were alive, I have no way of knowing it.
I shifted my gaze from behind and redirected it to the front—most likely to another hero.
“Dolly-chan, please corner him.”
“Growwwwwl!”
Dolly lets out a fierce roar and gives chase.
“Damn it! Why are you coming this way, monster?!”
As we were just a few dozen meters away, the all-black Stella-class A went half-mad and started firing magic bullets in rapid succession.
I deploy a “shield” for myself and Dolly-chan to defend.
“Growwwwwl!”
“Oh, Dolly-chan…”
It seems that Dolly-chan got excited by the magic light of Stellar Grade A, and with her spirits lifted, she increased her speed even more.
I thought we would collide if things continued like this, so I tried to steer parallel, but it was too late.
“GoOOOOOAAAAAN!”
“Ugh…!”
Dolly-chan collided head-on with the Stella-class A starship and was immediately knocked back.
“Ngah… Gah… Gah… Bhehcha!”
The Stella-class A star, forcefully knocked away, slammed its head into the ground, bounced a few times, and then slid across the ground with a “zchaa,” coming to a stop like a moose that had been hit by a school bus.
The black robe of the Stella-class A was torn by the impact, but as expected, the Stella-class body suffered almost no damage.
“Dolly-chan…”
“……Goooooon”
“Well, what’s done is done. Let’s wrap this up quickly this time.”
I gently stroke Dolly-chan’s neck, who is looking downcast after messing up.
Let’s deal with the star-level A guy here.
I can’t let Dolly-chan be a hit-and-run criminal.
