Chapter 91 The Two Disciples Begin the Battle
◆Mion and Dona◆
“Haah!”
“Wha—!?”
Mion’s high-speed kick pierces through a fishman’s abdomen, sending him flying in a crumpled position.
“Senior!”
“B-Bah…!?”
Dona strikes a fishman attacking Mion from behind with a sword attack.
The two of them stand back-to-back, scanning their surroundings.
Inside the cave, there were over a hundred fishmen surrounding them.
Naturally, all of them were armed.
The weapons looked brand new, as if freshly procured from somewhere. Moreover, they seemed similar to the sword Dona was holding.
“This is strange… There are too few of them.”
“Yes. And that weapon… It’s the same as the one I have.”
“What could this mean? Why do they have weapons identical to Dona’s…?”
“I don’t know, but we need to smash through them…!”
“Ah, wait a minute…!”
Dona readies his sword and swiftly slashes down a nearby fishman. The sheer speed leaves the fishmen helpless as they perish without resistance.
Dona’s movements did not stop. He slashes one, moves on to the next, and continues in this manner.
In no time, the cave is littered with the corpses of fishmen.
(This is bad. Dona is rushing too much. At this rate…!)
Mion kicks apart a sword that was brought down and uses the fishman’s face as a springboard to leap upwards.
From above, Mion notices that one of the Sea Gang members is moving differently from the others.
Dona is too focused on the enemies right in front of him and has not noticed this individual.
The person has also skillfully concealed his presence. Without a doubt, he is a significant force among them.
That person is now sneaking up behind Dona, poised to stab him with a knife…!
“Damn—!”
Concentrating magic on her feet, Mion kicks the space around her, narrowly deflecting the knife aimed at Dona.
She attempts a second kick, but it’s narrowly avoided.
“Ah, thank you, Senior.”
“No need for thanks. Just pay more attention to your surroundings.”
“Yes, senior…!”
The two once again stand back-to-back, vigilantly observing their surroundings.
In that brief moment, they had taken down fifteen enemies.
But there are still many more to face. Moreover, there are several high-level fishmen like the one Mion was currently fighting.
“At this rate, we’ll be worn down. Also, I’m curious why there are so few enemies in such a large cave… Dona, for a while, defend me while continuing the fight.”
“Leave it to me!”
Dona picks up a fallen sword and assumes a dual-wielding stance, guarding their surroundings.
Mion knows Dona’s abilities well. Although the enemies are strong, they should not be a match for Dona.
Mion focuses inward, channeling her magic.
Meanwhile, Dona continues to clash swords with the knife-wielder from earlier.
(This knife… I feel like I’ve seen it before…?)
“Tsk…!”
Dona’s successive attacks are met with resistance from the opponent. The opponent seems to be reacting with increasing anxiety, likely due to Dona’s unexpected strength.
It’s understandable.
Dona’s power is now at the level of a vice-captain in the kingdom’s army. He shouldn’t lose to just any foe.
(Dona, you seem calm. That should be fine. Now…)
Mion’s preparation is complete.
She channels the refined magic into her throat, then gathers it around her mouth and ears, taking a breath.
(Echolocation—!)
An ultra high frequency sound, inaudible to ordinary humans, is emitted from Mion’s mouth and reflects throughout the ant-like network of tunnels in the cave.
The reflected sound enters Mion’s enhanced ears, revealing the entire structure of the cave to her brain.
“This is…! Dona, we need to hurry! This cave has one tunnel that is incredibly deep!”
“What do you mean!?”
“This depth likely leads to Dipsea! The ones here are just stalling us!”
Only after this explanation does Dona finally understand. This means that a much larger force is heading toward Dipsea.
“It’s too late to realize it now!”
“Ugh…!”
The knife-wielder knocks one of Dona’s swords aside.
The knife is swung back, coming at him. He narrowly avoids it, but the blade slices his cheek, causing blood to flow.
“We, the Sea Gang, are invading the underwater kingdom Dipsea with around five thousand troops. No one can stop us now.”
“Five thousand…!?”
Dona is stunned by the scale. She hadn’t expected so many. If such a large number of marauders infiltrates, Dipsea would be destroyed.
She needs to defeat these enemies and report to Neptune somehow. But how…?
Feeling the urgency, Mion smirks.
“…What’s so funny?”
“Senior…?”
“Oh, pardon me. I was just thinking how unfortunate those people are.”
Everyone present shuddered at Mion’s defiant smile.
Despite the invasion of five thousand, she said they were unfortunate.
The true meaning is unclear, but it doesn’t seem like a bluff. It’s better to think pessimistically about the situation.
The knife-wielder escalates the battle gear.
“Dona, let’s go.”
“Yes, senior!”
The two of them also escalate their efforts and charged into the enemy.
