But as long as I'm there, even if she's timid, she'll fight hard and seriously.

"Wenya, let's begin!"

At this moment, Ruhr gave the order, and Wenya quickly raised her staff high and began to chant a magic spell.

Wut blut magie (Bloodlust Technique)

Instantly, everyone, including Lila and me, was covered by the emerging red light.

In an instant, I felt an endless power suddenly spread throughout my body.

Wow, that's amazing.

At this moment, Lila couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

“Hmm… Support magic is very rare for humans, and Betty’s Light Magic Healing Spell is actually considered a very powerful support spell.”

"In that case!"

With that, Lila rubbed her hands together, ready to pick up her staff and charge into battle.

Unfortunately, I still had to pull her back like I was carrying a chick.

Chapter Sixteen: A Battle Against a Powerful Enemy

What are you doing now...?

Lila, whom I had pulled over, suddenly became a little unhappy.

"We don't understand the Night Elves' fighting habits, and joining the battle now will only cause them trouble."

Although Lila and I are not weak, and Lila's mid-level magic, Heavenly Water Scattering Flowers, can restrain the opponent, I can cause quite terrifying damage. However, I am afraid that they, who have been fighting together for many years, might accidentally disrupt their battle plan, which would be a great loss.

"Hmm, alright, whatever you say, Ivy..."

Actually, Lila is a well-mannered and sensible girl, and she basically only listens to me, so she had no choice but to stay obediently behind me and wait for the right moment to make her move.

Of course, Bacharach, as the main tank, was the first to be attacked. He raised his longsword high and used all his strength to strike directly at King Minotaur's face.

I thought that the Minotaur king, who had no will to fight, would definitely be hit completely. In addition, with Winnie's amplifying magic, Bloodlust, even with the strongest shield, it would definitely not be able to take the hit unscathed.

However, to everyone's surprise, before Kabarak's greatsword could strike King Minotaur, a semi-transparent golden shield appeared, which quite easily blocked his attack.

"how come……"

Seeing that his attack had no effect, Kabarak immediately withdrew his attack and jumped back a great distance to prevent the Minotaur King from launching an unknown close-range attack.

"Is this all the strength you have? This is truly disappointing."

"Damn it, this guy's defense is too tough. I didn't expect that my full-force attack would have no effect on its defense at all..."

At this moment, Kabarak gritted his teeth, as if he had underestimated the enemy, but had no good way to plan ahead.

"Look at me."

At this moment, Yuzu had moved behind King Minotaur and then raised her two incredibly sharp daggers to stab him in the back.

With a "clang," the pomelo was instantly bounced away by the semi-transparent golden shield.

Immediately after, the moment Yuzu was knocked away, Mi'er fired three arrows in quick succession, each one hitting a vital spot on the Minotaur.

Unfortunately... while they hit their targets, their power was lacking, and soon the arrows were bent and fell to the ground.

Then, an arrow of unimaginable power, seemingly weak but unstoppable, hurtled towards us from the rear with astonishing speed and immense force.

Although it had a slight effect, forcing the Minotaur king back a few centimeters, it still failed to break through its rock-solid golden defensive shield.

"Damn it, no wonder he's the king of the Minotaur, his defenses are ridiculously tough..."

At this moment, Ruhr gripped his longbow tighter, a hint of fear showing on his face.

"So what should we do?"

"Let's all focus our attack on one point. I refuse to believe that there is any defense in this world that we can't break through."

"learn."

At this moment, Ruhr encouraged everyone, and the four of them kept quickly changing positions, finally launching a powerful attack.

The Minotaur king remained unhurried and did not launch an attack, as if he were waiting for them to break through his defenses.

Unfortunately, this continued for more than half an hour. Even I didn't expect that the Minotaur's defenses were so tough. Only a few slight cracks appeared on the surface. In reality, it was still a long way from being broken.

"Is this... real? I'm already like this... and the defense only has a small crack?"

The night elves were now panting heavily, and even speaking was becoming difficult.

"That's it? You're not even qualified to tickle me."

Seeing that the night elves, including Mia, had stopped their attack, King Minotaur looked somewhat disappointed and helpless.

Perhaps the king of the Minotaur wanted to wage a life-or-death battle against someone truly powerful, but unfortunately, the strength of the night elves, including Mill and the others, was still too weak for him.

"What should we do, Ruhr? Is there any way? If it attacks, we'll all die here without a doubt."

At this moment, Yuzu couldn't help but feel anxious, because they had all seen the difference in strength between them.

"Try...try one more time. If it doesn't work, then continue."

Honestly, Ruhr couldn't think of any sure way to win at this point. His only hope was to hold out until the very last second, the very last moment, and break through King Minotaur's defenses.

But what good will it do to break it?

Are we not going to sleep yet, or are we going to face the Minotaur king who won't use any defense?

Therefore, in this battle, Mia and her group of night elves had no chance of winning.

"Enough. Your name is Ruhr, right? If your father were to fight me, he might have a chance of winning. Unfortunately... your father died five hundred years ago. From that moment on, I have been waiting here for a new powerful figure to be born from your Night Elf race. Unfortunately..."

At this moment, the king of the Minotaur shook his head helplessly.

"what do you want to say in the end!"

Indeed, I had heard Yuzu and Mi'er mention before that Ruer's father was a master of the Heavy Armor Piercing Arrow. Although Ruer was very strong, he was not even one percent as strong as his father.

Rul's father was probably the strongest being among the Night Elves, but unfortunately, he died five hundred years ago in a battle due to a recurrence of his injuries.

However... Night elves really live a long life. If I could live that long... well, if I lived that long, all my harem members would die of old age, and I would just spend the rest of my life alone.

Thinking about this, it's best not to have this idea.

However, I don't want them to die so soon, especially since Yuzu and Mi'er, although they are night elves, have taken care of me for quite a while and are very cute.

Besides, they were the ones who saved my precious Lila, so I can't let them not repay their kindness.

At this moment, I turned around and patted Lila's big golden head again.

Then he directly drew the Aurora Blade from his waist.

Then I closed my eyes and the spirit of the forbidden magic book appeared before me from my mind.

Although it's safe to say that the King of the Minotaur isn't the culprit who captured my precious Lila, in order to ensure their safety and well-being, perhaps keeping Mia and Yuzu by my side would be a good idea.

Chapter Seventeen: Breaking Through King Minotaur's Absolute Defense

However, the effects of the Blood Frenzy spell on me have not yet worn off.

Although it's about 10-20% weaker than at the beginning, it doesn't significantly affect the increase in my internal magic power.

Since that's the case, let me see if your golden shield is harder, or if my Thunder Spear is more powerful.

Honestly, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel excited.

Perhaps it's because this Blood Frenzy Technique also stimulates the excitement system; otherwise, I should have remained calm.

At that moment, I quickly used my mind to flip to the page of the A Certain Magical Index, which was once an extremely destructive intermediate-level spell, Astram's Lightning Spear.

At the same time, a large amount of magic power began to gather in my palm and was transferred to my Aurora Blade.

When it had almost fully solidified, I quickly pulled it out and made a throwing motion as if throwing a javelin.

Since Wenya's Bloodlust Technique is still continuously enhancing my own magic power, the power of Astram's Lightning Spear this time should be even greater than when I was at my strongest, so I don't need to worry. I only have one-fifth of my previous strength now.

"O golden spear that pierces the dawn of the divine realm, in my name, break through, pierce through, break through the heavens and all things, Astram's Thunder Spear!"

Gradually, my hand, which was wielding the Aurora Sword and had been imbued with a great deal of magic power, began to feel a burning sensation. Countless bolts of lightning crackled and spread from my palm toward the blade.

That's right, that's the feeling of the power continuing to increase.

Before long, I began to feel that I could no longer continue to gather powerful lightning magic, which proved that the lightning power of Astran's Lightning Spear had reached its limit.

However, at this moment, King Minotaur, who had been watching Mia and the others, seemed to sense my powerful magical fluctuations and turned his huge bull head around. The golden ornaments on his head kept clattering and clanging.

His expression then shifted from calm to somewhat unsettled, as if he could tell that my Astran's Thunder Spear technique was not so easy to deal with.

"What's this?"

At this moment, King Minotaur uttered a question tinged with doubt.

Unfortunately, there's no time to explain to you what this amazing move is.

Now I'll see if your prized golden shield can withstand my full-force Astram's Thunder Spear.

"drink!"
