Type-Moon: Shinji Matou Also Wants to Be the Protagonist

After all, it's still bleeding. If it loses too much blood, the candy will turn into real candy.

As Mavis's fingers brushed across the wound, the bloody gash closed up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before Erza could react, the long, narrow wound disappeared as if a zipper had closed.

If it weren't for the torn clothes and bloodstains, you wouldn't be able to tell that Mebis had been injured.

"How is that possible!"

Even Erza, who was well-informed, was shocked by this scene.

After all, she believed she had used all her strength in that strike.

She also made the most of the characteristics of the new magical weapon, in addition to the advantage of launching a surprise attack first.

Even if she had faced that attack in her past self, she would have been instantly killed.

Mavis was able to react, and Erza could accept it, after all, Mavis was stronger than her.

But now Mebius can heal wounds instantly and effortlessly.

This restorative ability was beyond her understanding of magic.

With her complexion regaining its rosy hue, Mavis took out a fitted coat from her storage space and put it on.

After all, Erza had ruined her clothes before.

Mavis has no interest in exposing herself while fighting; she's not Lucy from Aslant!

After putting on her clothes, Mavis raised an eyebrow at Erza opposite her and said "sincerely":

"Why don't you just retreat? I'll pretend nothing happened today!"

The soldiers' faces darkened when their own words of persuasion to surrender were returned unanswered, a mockery that made them all look rather unpleasant.

"Everyone, activate the barrier and prepare for battle!"

Erza's tone didn't change much; she simply issued the battle order with unwavering resolve.

As Erza gave the order, the surrounding warriors immediately coordinated with the Beyonder to retreat a distance.

They formed an impenetrable defensive line in the air, arranged in staggered columns.

The magic, using the transcendent beings within these warriors as nodes, transformed into a net.

In battles between top-tier mages, low-quality swarm tactics are actually not very effective.

Even though these warriors were already the kingdom's elite.

However, compared to Erza and others, they are still low-quality grunts.

Therefore, their presence here is not to participate in the siege of Mebius, but to block Mebius's escape route.

The transcendents were fulfilling their duties, and the warriors were not idle either.

All the standardized long-range magic guns were locked onto Mavis.

The power of magical equipment is not related to the strength of the warriors.

Therefore, even if the individual strength of the warriors cannot pose a threat to Mavis.

However, this does not prevent them from possessing means that could threaten Mebbes.

They will carry out tasks to harass and restrict Mebbes.

Finally, only a few people remained in the octagonal cage, facing off against Mavis.

The first to be hit was Erza, who was covered in heavy armor.

She was the main force in this operation, and only she had the ability to fight Mebius head-on.

Next were two men.

One was a young man with purple hair and white highlights; he was Hughes, the captain of the kingdom's third magic squad.

The other one is a blond man with a pompadour; he is Hugh Boy, the captain of the Fourth Demon Squad.

In addition, Chief of Staff Bayro was still making arrangements in the air.

The kingdom's top combat force, apart from Pansa Rili of the First Demon Squad, is basically all here.

As for why Lili didn't come, it wasn't because his injury hadn't healed.

Because it was a "familiar face," Mebius held back when he struck.

The wound that pierced through the chest only looked serious; in reality, it was just a superficial injury.

With the help of Bairo's treatment, Lili had already recovered.

It's just because this operation requires collaboration with the Transcendent.

As a "fallen angel" who was expelled from Extania, it was not convenient for Lili to show his face.

In addition, the empty capital city needed someone to guard it, so Rili stayed in the capital.

"Let's do it!"

Unexpectedly, it wasn't Erza who fired the first shot, but Bairo in the sky.

He then threw out several bottles filled with liquid.

The colorful liquid began to evaporate rapidly in mid-air, turning into a mottled mist.

The mist continued to react in mid-air, eventually turning into a fine drizzle that fell down.

As soon as a tiny bit touched her skin, Mavis felt a stinging sensation.

"poisonous!"

Before Mavis could react, Erza suddenly appeared in front of her.

It was like teleportation... no, that was teleportation!

Chapter 334: Siege

【Sky-Piercing Slash】, Erza's new weapon.

These are masterpieces selected from the treasures of Extania.

It cannot match the versatile Ten Commandments Gun in terms of the variety of abilities.

However, the [Sky-Piercing Slash] is no weaker than the [Ten Commandments Spear].

【Breaking Through Space】—This weapon's name reflects its ability to break through space.

This ability has two uses; the one that consumes less energy is for the blade to traverse space.

The one that consumes more energy is the one that takes the user through space.

Erza used both of these methods in succession when she launched a surprise attack on Mavis.

A physical attack burst through the air, while a sharp blade pierced through the magical barrier of [Dawn].

At this point, she resorted to her old trick and launched another attack on Mebius's vitals.

Mavis grinned as Erza launched her surprise attack.

"Exploding Spear!"

He brandished the [Ten Commandments Spear], which had transformed, and charged forward.

Erza's [Sky-Piercing Slash] indeed lost its tip in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared in front of Mavis's neck.

Since simple slashing damage can't kill Mavis, let's cut off her head.

Erza didn't believe that Mavis could grow a new head after losing it.

Despite the vicious blow, Mebbes did not stop his movements at all.

"Boom!"

A terrifying explosion erupted from the tip of the "Exploding Spear," engulfing both of them in a burst of flames and shockwaves.

Hughes and Hugh Boy, who were originally about to rush up to help, were stopped by the aftershocks of the explosion before they even reached the battle position.

Under the tense gaze of the two, two figures emerged from the explosion.

They first looked at Erza, whose armor was covered in smudges from the explosion.

There was a shallow scratch on the chest of the armor, but no other damage.

This suit of armor is itself a precious magical item.

It provides Erza with extremely high boosts to strength and defense.

Meanwhile, on the opposite side was Mebius.

She was surrounded by a magical barrier, and the destructive force of the explosion did not reach her.

Her left hand was bleeding from Erza's ruthless decapitation strike.

Without changing her attack intentions, she directly grabbed the incoming blade with her left hand.

However, such an injury is nothing to Mebbs.

He recovered almost completely after just a few shakes of his hands.

Neither side sustained any serious injuries in the first round of combat.

"Clang~ Clang~"

There was no chance for Mebbs to catch his breath; he had barely regained his footing after leaving the blast zone.

Two enormous metal bullets struck the magical shield beside her with tremendous force.

The warhead was squeezed and deformed on the shield, shattering into small fragments that spread outwards.

A dense network of holes was left in the ground around Mebius.

These are bullets fired by the warriors who formed the blockade line using magical firearms.

Although it failed to penetrate Dawn's magic shield, the immense power still caused Mavis's body to become even more unbalanced.

Erza seized the opportunity and teleported in front of Mavis again.

The silver blade traced a crescent moon-like trajectory as it slashed down toward Mavis's head.

"Command Wand!"

"The Sword of Roses!"

This time, Hughes and Hughboy, who were not far away, also caught up and joined in, casting their magic on Mavis.

The two men's shouts were full of passion.

The magic of the "Command Wand" is to imbue inanimate objects with a temporary "soul," enabling them to assist the user in battle.

For this mission, Hughes brought several metal knight statues with him.

The "Rose Sword" can soften any non-living object touched by the rapier.

Even if the target is a magic barrier, the power of "Rose Sword" will still work.

"Sonic Gun!"

Faced with a group of people attacking him, Mebius became even more excited.

The Ten Commandments Spear in his hand switched to its extreme speed form, with attack speed and movement speed enhanced by the magic of the Ten Commandments Spear.

Then, the gun shot out like a dragon!

Erza's piercing blade was precisely intercepted.

Before Erza could react, the Ten Commandments Spear was withdrawn in an instant and appeared before Hughes in the blink of an eye.

"Clang~"

A crisp metallic clang rang out as Hugh Boyle, standing nearby, swung his rapier to block the attack for Hughes.

Hughes is the weakest in close combat among the captains. If he were hit by Mavis, he would probably be crippled on the spot.

But by helping Hughes block the attack, Hugh Boyle himself was left wide open.

Of course, Hugh Boy is, after all, the captain of the Demon Squad, and no ordinary person.

The consequences were already taken into account when making such a decision.
