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 - 160

160 Karta & Olin

“Olin-san, are you okay?”

“I-I’m managing! B-But it’s high.”

Both Karta and I were looking down at the forest from the sky.

It’s higher than usual, so the consumption of magical power and the technique are completely different.

Surprisingly, Karta gave magical symbols to a large tree and used it as an improvised staff. It’s truly remarkable.

And witnessing the current battle was a great harvest.

“As expected, the combination of Weiss-kun and Shari-san is amazing.”

“That’s right. But, I think we can do it too.”

Just a moment ago, Cecil-san and Tula-san were defeated.

And our targets were ‘Weiss Fancent. Shari Elias’… Honestly, everyone would give up.

It might be easier to target others one by one and earn points.

But…

“We absolutely must win.”

Karta shared the same sentiment as me. We’ve trained thoroughly since becoming partners.

If we can show the results of that training, we won’t lose.

But we won’t let our guard down. Find the opportunity to win and defeat them.

“Should we go down soon?”

“Yeah. Let’s go from a slightly distant place.”

Karta and I have something in common. We are more accustomed to the forest than anyone else.

The sky is not the only battlefield for us. We landed on the ground and concealed our presence.

“It’s almost evening. The two of them seem to sleep in that house. Shall we take a short nap in shifts?”

“I’m fine. Karta-san, you can sleep.”

“Hehehe, it can’t be helped. I absolutely want to win.”

“Well then, tonight will be a night owl.”

The interesting part of this exam is that we can only die once. That’s the most crucial part.

◇

“Phew… This exam is tougher than I imagined.”

While Shari was taking a nap, I was thinking about the scores.

After that, I defeated a mob and earned only one point.

Currently, it’s ten points.

Duke and Lilith defeated Alan and Cynthia. If we find them, we can quickly earn points.

But there are several concerns. Luck plays a significant role in this exam.

Furthermore, Duke and Lilith have low weapon dependence, overwhelming physical abilities, and individual capabilities that keep others at bay.

Unlike complex magical combinations, they’ve reached a higher level faster than anyone else.

Can we really win against them with our current situation?

It’s not about being pessimistic; considering the current winning percentage is something I learned from Cecil.

Always make the right move without misjudging the battle situation.

Sometimes, consider the possibility of retreat. This is not just a fight; it’s an exam.

Now, it’s Olin and Karta’s turn. It will be quite challenging to deal with attacks from the sky.

At that moment, Shari’s trap reacted.

Specialized in magic perception, it doesn’t give away our attack.

So, I quietly adjusted my magical power.

Surprisingly, one, two, three people entered.

This is…

“Shari, wake up!”

The next moment, the outside of the window shone brightly.

As soon as I realized that a magical cannon had been fired, the wall blew away, and we seemed to be engulfed in the explosion.

The wall was destroyed, turning into rubble that attacked us.

I instantly deployed a defense formula and protected her.

Not completely naked, but after a hole opened up enough to see the sky, monsters attacked from all sides. Goblins and orcs. In addition, their magical power was stronger than normal individuals.

“It’s okay.”

The next moment, Shari’s magic threads caught the goblins.

Surprisingly, about twenty magical creatures were there.

Only one person can do this.

However, for the second time, magic was fired from the sky.

“We’re flying.”

I discreetly included an unnatural wall, Unnatural, in Shari’s ground, and we flew high into the sky. But we still couldn’t see their figures.

Just when I thought that, magic was fired from above.

“How interesting.”

It seems they’ve mastered cooperation quite a bit.

Before Shari fell freely, she slapped my back.

“I’ll leave it to you, Weiss. I’ll take care of Olin-san.”

“Got it.”

I activated flight magic with the help of the spirits.

Even with a time limit, I can fly much more easily than usual.

Activating the Flash Time-Lapse, the Magic Eye is still unused.

And in my hands, there was a short sword. Not very accustomed to using it, but I found a valuable weapon.

Its durability is much higher compared to a wooden stick.

“Too bad!”

I cut into Karta’s gigantic magic cannon and destroyed it. Then, I spotted Karta in the sky.

She probably flew right after attacking from the ground.

If it goes well, I can defeat her right there, and even if it fails, I can at least separate from her.

Well, your strategy seems to be going according to plan, but this… isn’t part of the plan, right?

Approaching Karta rapidly, bat-like creatures appeared, blocking my way.

Probably controlled remotely by Olin.

Annoying, but it won’t stop me. Without hesitation, I cut through them and soared higher and higher.

At that moment, Karta shaded her hand. It sprouted into multiple branches, coming at me from all directions.

Undoubtedly, she has applied tracking magic.

Even if I manage to knock them away, there are still creatures left. If my evasion fails and my magic gets disrupted, there’s a possibility I won’t be able to fly.

Before, I might have given up, eased my flight, and fallen down.

But not anymore. I have… the Magic Eye.

“Magic Eye, about one second into the future.”

I can see everything. Attacks, creatures, as if I’m predicting their actions.

I narrowly avoid the tracking magic using the tracking function of magic. I predict the actions of the creatures and just place the short sword there.

Even though Karta launches multiple attacks, I can see them all.

“Why…?”

“Sorry, Karta. I was just too strong.”

“Karta Wiole eliminated in the first round. Nameplate transferred to Weiss Fancent.”

I continue to free fall. Observing the forest with the Dark Eye, I see Shari fighting Olin.

There are still about ten creatures she’s controlling. They’re a hindrance to me, but even more to her.

“Heh, bottomless, isn’t it?”

Olin gets stronger every time she fights. Karta couldn’t handle tracking magic at all before.

Ah, this is fun.

But Olin, I can see your movements…

“Olin Pastel. Eliminated in the first round. Nameplate transferred to Shari Elias.”

Shari delivers the finishing blow. I prevented her actions, but her trap took down Olin.

What used to be just a hindrance has now become powerful enough to deal fatal damage.

Soon, she’ll be able to face a large army without moving a step.

“Weiss, impressive.”

The Magic Eye, flight magic that defeated Karta, and the trap for sensing presence—none of this would have been possible without her.

In the past, I could only fight while looking up at the sky. But not anymore.

“Thanks to you, Shari.”

“Huh? Fufufu, you seem quite cute, Weiss.”

“What?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Next, you take a nap. Thank you.”

“Jeez, keep a watch, will you?”

“Sure, sure. Need a lullaby?”

“Just be quiet.”

…Jeez, she’s the only one who talks to me like this.

But well, strangely, it doesn’t feel bad at all.
