The Strongest Onmyoji and the Shikigami With AI are Unparalleled in Another World ~ A Second Life Properly Enjoyed Using Artificial Intelligence ~-Chapter 37 - Support

“Ah, I’m tired.”

Returning to the town, I take a breath.

Other adventurers seem tired too, sitting down where they are.

“Are you okay, Master?”

AI-chan, not even out of breath, asks with a worried tone.

Since AI-chan is a shikigami, she doesn’t get tired.

“This much is nothing. But yeah, I’m pretty tired.”

“You’re strong, though. Your magic and sword skills were amazing.”

Clive, sitting beside us, compliments.

“You’re amazing with the spear too, even though you’re a cook.”

He handles the spear skillfully and is quite strong.

“I’m technically a B-rank, though. But, it’s tough. My arm won’t improve anymore…”

He’s also B-rank. No wonder he’s strong.

As we rest there, the medical team arrives promptly.

“Yuuma, AI-chan, are you okay?”

Natalia from the medical team rushes over with Koma-chan.

“No injuries, just tired.”

“I’m fine since I only used Foxfire from behind.”

“I see… Ah, Healing!”

Natalia casts healing magic, and fatigue drains away from my body.

“What about me?”

“Oh, here’s a potion. Please.”

Clive asks, and Natalia hands out vials to Clive and the other clan members.

Clive exchanges glances with the other two as they drink the potions.

“Natalia has a side like this, huh?”

“Yeah.”

“It’s pretty obvious.”

The three men who drank the potions were grumbling to each other.

“I’m glad you’re all safe. What’s it like outside?”

Natalia completely ignores the men and asks while handing water to me and AI-chan.

“There are goblins and orcs everywhere.”

“Everywhere… Are you okay?”

I wonder…

“You don’t have to worry. I’ll help you even if it’s just you guys in trouble.”

“Y-yeah…”

Natalia’s cheeks flush slightly.

“Natalia completely ignores us. What’s the difference here?”

“Who knows?”

“Isn’t it about looks?”

These spectators are so noisy…

“I’ll head up there, so I leave the rest to you.”

“Aren’t you going to rest?”

“I’ve been healed by your recovery magic. I’ll be using magic up there.”

“I see… Oh, give this to Alice.”

Natalia hands me a small bag.

“What’s this?”

“Candy. When she runs out of sugar, she can’t cast magic anymore.”

Candy?

Oh, candy, huh.

“Just as I thought, she’s a kid… Alright, AI-chan, let’s go.”

“Yes!”

AI-chan and I left the area and headed towards the stairs leading up to the ramparts.

As we climbed the stairs and searched for Alice, we found her leaning against the wall, resting, Annie casting spells, and another clan member nearby. We approached them.

“Taking a break?”

When I spoke, Alice and the others looked at us.

“…Oh, Yuma.”

“You look tired.”

“Ah, thank you for your hard work out there.”

They greeted us once they noticed us.

“Here. From Natalia.”

I handed the small bag to Alice.

“…Thanks.”

Alice opened the bag and started licking the candy. She then moved to Annie’s side, leaning against the wall, and looked out at the scenery.

“What’s it like out there?”

“Just as you’d expect. It’s been like this the whole time.”

As Annie spoke, the fireball she cast flew off into the distance, hitting a group of monsters and engulfing them in flames. While we might have taken down a few, they were quickly obscured by the mass of monsters pushing forward from behind.

“I’d compared it to a swarm of ants, but it’s quite serious.”

“Truly. No matter how many we defeat, their numbers don’t decrease. It’s abnormal.”

I aimed the sword made of talismans towards the sky and infused it with spiritual energy.

Soon, a golden fireball appeared at the tip of the sword, gradually growing larger.

“I was watching from here earlier, but why are Yuuma and AI-chan’s fire spells golden?”

Because my mother is a golden fox.

“It’s just the nature of this spell… That’s all.”

Creating a fireball with a diameter of about two meters, I directed the talisman sword towards the mass of monsters.

“Isn’t it big? It’s several times larger than mine…”

Annie remarked incredulously as she looked at the fireball.

“If it’s not this big, the enemy won’t falter… Take this!”

Releasing the fireball, it soared towards the mass of monsters. Upon impact, a golden pillar of flame rose, engulfing an area several tens of meters square.

The monsters, momentarily frozen at the sight of the flames, quickly resumed their charge.

“They’re not faltering at all. Are they fearless?”

“That was indeed a terrifying spell… It’s not even an anti-army spell. But it’s strange indeed. These monsters seem to lack fear.”

While I didn’t know the characteristics of the monsters, with such firepower, they should have been deterred.

“I saw the monsters up close earlier, and their eyes were bloodshot.”

“Is it a state of frenzy? Hmm… Could it be that grouping together is boosting their morale? Since the Stampede incident decades ago, nothing like this has happened, so I’m not sure.”

“I don’t know either… Sigh… Maybe it’s time for a break.”

I sat down next to Alice and leaned against the wall.

“Master, how much spiritual energy do you have left?”

“I still have plenty, but at this rate, it’ll run out quickly. I want to conserve some energy and use spells while resting.”

“Understood. Then, I’ll keep using the foxfire.”

AI-chan nodded and started releasing foxfire next to Annie and the others.

“By the way, how long are you planning to rest?”

I asked Alice, who was licking the candy while looking exhausted.

“…I’ve been working hard until just now. I need a break for a while.”

“I see. Then, let’s take a rest.”

“Okay…”

After that, we continued our task of resting and casting spells.
