I Have been Reincarnated As a Lazy, Arrogant Noble, but When I Destroyed The Scenario Through Effort, I Became The Most Powerful With Extraordinary Magical Power - 144

Chapter 144 Part 1: Turning the Impossible into Possible

High above, Eva and Nell continued their back-and-forth battle.

However, their expressions were clearly contrasting. Eva appeared distressed, while Nell had a smile on her face.

The strong emotions towards her former friend pierced Eva’s heart.

“Well done. How much training have you undergone? Losing both me and the King, you must have been quite devastated.”

Eva remained silent. She knew that the only answer she could obtain was through victory.

“It’s sad that we can’t even have a conversation as old friends. But well, maybe this is also a form of communication. Now, the game… seems to be approaching its final stage, so we should settle this soon.”

Saying that, Nell further swelled her magical power.

In response, Eva also doubled hers.

“Hehehe.”

Without uttering a word, Eva collided with her magical power.

On the other hand, Milch Sensei… was fighting against King.

“You, being a human, are too strong, aren’t you?”

“Do demons also complain? Or is it because you were originally human, and emotions still linger?”

With Milch Sensei’s words, King changed his expression.

“Hit the mark, huh? It’s easy to understand when even demons have simpletons.”

“Y-you! You’re annoying!”

Milch Sensei let out a relaxed smile, but remained vigilant. He then called out to the two nearby individuals.

“Eleanor, Sierra, the monsters have calmed down. It’s time to run to Weiss.”

“I-Is it okay?”

“Even though Milch Sensei is here, can you handle demons alone—”

“It’s okay. I want to show my full strength after a long time.”

“Alright. Let’s go, big sister.”

“…Please don’t overdo it.”

Saying that, Eleanor and Sierra descended to the ground.

Seeing this, King seemed irritated.

Milch Sensei, holding a sharp sword, spoke sharply.

“Come at me, half-baked former human. I’ll show you the power of humans.”

And Milch Sensei enveloped his sword in flames. A thin film of water covered his body, all infused with high-density magical power.

“Don’t think a worthless human can defeat demons.”

“Abandoning humanity and going for the easy path, right?”

“You’re kidding!”

◇

“One-hit kill.”

Near the west gate, Tula, while heading towards Weiss, was facing a large number of monsters.

While protecting ordinary citizens, she did not neglect her vigilance towards the surroundings.

Next to her, Olin was summoning ten advanced monsters.

Among them were monsters that could fly.

Moreover, all the actions of the summoned monsters were connected, and everything they saw or heard entered Olin, their master.

Olin’s summoning ability had already reached an awakened level.

“Tula-san, I’ll leave the monsters here to protect. Let’s run to Weiss-kun.”

“Can you do that?”

“I can. I’ve trained for this.”

While taking separate actions, she remotely controlled all ten creatures.

Facing the wide-eyed Tula, Olin declared confidently.

◇

“Are you okay, Princess Sophia!?”

“Berg, don’t try to score points.”

“I’m not.”

“You are.”

“You guys are incredibly strong, but please don’t fight.”

“Amazing…”

Underneath where Alan and I were fighting, reliable junior kids were protecting Princess Sophia.

Shari seemed a little amazed, a sign of her composure.

“From the west gate, there are court soldiers from the capital, knight mages from the friendly nation in the east, Belfess. Prepared adventurers have also joined the battle. Victory is within reach.”

“Now, demons, you’re in a desperate situation. What will you do? Would it be better to go home and cry to Demon Lord Mama?”

“Befa, you’re underestimating us.”

“You’re noisy.”

“I am.”

“Gahaha, the game… is getting tough!”

At that moment, Lakom’s response to my taunt caught my attention.

It resembled the intonation from the world where I used to live.

Moreover, people usually only use the word “game” when playing Battle Universe.

To liken such a battle to a game—

At that moment, the ice wings on my back made cracking sounds.

It’s almost at the limit.

However, their role is already fulfilled.

I addressed everyone and descended to the ground.

Breaking through the members present here to kill Princess Sophia would be impossible for them, no matter how capable they are.

The full moon is fading, surprisingly around the same time as Cecil’s arrival.

This area seems unexpectedly like Noblesse Oblige.

“Weiss Senpai, those wings are cool! I want to try too!”

“Next time. Why are you guys here?”

In response to my question, Meryl answers.

“After school, we heard that Senpai and the others were training in the city. So, we decided to follow on our day off, but got lost on the way. It’s Meryl’s fault we’re late… Ah, Cynthia Senpai, you look beautiful today too.”

“T-Thank you very much, Meryl-san.”

I see, so they were just simple stalkers.

I want to scold them, but I’ll let it go for today.

At that moment, Tula, Olin, and Duke’s figures appeared.

Eleanor and Sierra were also with them.

Each of them is covered in monster blood, but they are reliable individuals.

But don’t let your guard down until the end…

“Sulth, according to the plan.”

“The game… is entering its final battle!”

“Gahaha, let’s add some sound effects! Boom!”

The next moment, a black teleportation spread at Princess Sophia’s feet.

Then, it started to fall like a pitfall.

But I grabbed it on impulse.

However, the suction force was tremendous, and I was dragged in too.

The next moment, I was falling into the darkness.

Can something like this really be done?

Where will I be sent? Where on earth…

“Weiss!”

Just before the hole closed, Alan came in.

My vision is getting black. It’s as if I’ve been thrown into the darkness.

“What is this…!?”

“It’s okay. We… are here. Alan, be on guard.”

“Yeah.”

And then, my field of view expanded.

It was a large cube.

All sides were covered in black. Thanks to the flashing time-lapse, I realized it was inside a barrier. Unfortunately, I understood that it wasn’t something I could escape from.

But I could sense magical power around. It’s Cynthia and the others.

…What’s going on? Has the location changed?

It seems they surrounded us to prevent interference.

And then, from all four walls, Sulth, Beefa, and Lakom showed themselves again.

“Ha, tired… No magical power left. It won’t last five minutes, so good luck.”

“Killing the princess inside the top-tier barrier. It’s simple but cheating, isn’t it?”

“Gahaha! But we brought two bonuses!”

Inside this barrier, I have to protect Sophia. But telling them the time was a mistake.

With Sulth running out of magical power, only Alan and I can fight.

Five minutes should be more than enough.

If the barrier disappears, we can reunite with Cynthia and the others we sense around.

And Alan understood that.

“Alan, five minutes. Even if all magical power runs out. Endure it.”

“Yeah…”

However, an unexpected event occurred to surprise both Alan and me.

Or rather, that’s why I mentioned five minutes.

“Oh, what a good match you were having. King, you smell like something’s burning. And you’re a mess.”

“Nell, shut up! Ah, the conclusion wasn’t reached. Well, in the end, winning with cheating. Well, if you win, that’s fine.”

Suddenly, a woman and a man, who were having exactly the same battle in the air as Eva, appeared from the black wall.

…Nell?

…I see, she was the one from that time.

And I noticed the battered figure of the man called King. That technique was Milch Sensei’s serious attack.

Even after receiving that, he hadn’t fallen.

Such guys are here, in this narrow space.

“A… A…”

Princess Sophia seemed to have noticed the difference in magical power.

She is not just for show. She has diligently trained as a mage.

But I remembered. That dragon battle.

On that day, at that moment, we made the impossible possible.

And Alan was looking ahead.

Holding his sword.

Without trembling, without fear, he stared at the demons.

And Nell smiled as she looked at us.

The more I looked, the more they resembled each other. But not only that, Nell, like Eva, spread her hands like wings from her back.

Magic, attributes, everything was infused into those hands.

But—if it’s you.

“Weiss, we can do it.”

“Yeah, that’s right. Sophia, believe in me, believe in us. I promised to protect you. Yes, we promised.”

Sophia suppressed her emotions somehow and hid behind me.

She wanted to live. I have a duty to make that happen.

To make the impossible possible.

That’s the essence of Noblesse Oblige.
