Their world doesn't need gods.

Chapter 245: Annu Cult, Strong Enemy Appears (1)

"Be serious. I'm not sure, but the enemy can't send out monsters indefinitely. Anyway, until we receive other orders from Miss Sylvia, the two of us will continue to defend this place."

"But there are monsters pouring into the banquet hall too. Is it really okay to just leave it alone?"

Adelaide complained. She couldn't accept what Sheryl said at all.

In addition to a large amount of dust that interferes with magic power, the bomb installed by Alfred also contained some things that helped Sylvia perform space magic.

With these things, Sylvia can more easily use magic to create a large number of space portals within the main castle of Illya and Alia, turning the entire castle into a temporary maze.

By the way, although it is generally difficult to perform space magic in the dust that interferes with magic power, Sylvia can do it.

Most of the monsters will be guided by Sylvia to the passage guarded by Cheryl and Adelaide.

Only a very small number would be deliberately allowed into the banquet hall.

"Almost all the teachers and students of the academy are in the banquet hall. They must have a way to deal with the monsters of a certain level. And Sylvia is probably adjusting the number of monsters pouring into our area to prevent us from encountering too many monsters at once."

While Cheryl was answering, she kept pulling the trigger and shooting.

"Controlling the number of monsters that flock to our side has nothing to do with allowing monsters into the banquet hall, right?"

Adelaide seemed to have discovered something interesting and gave a wicked smile.

"..."

Cheryl didn't answer, but focused all her attention on the monsters that kept attacking.

However, Adelaide knew that Cheryl didn't know the detailed reasons why Alfred and Sylvia did this. She just made up a bunch of nonsense to make herself look good and then put on airs in front of him.

Although they had only known each other for a short time, Adelaide unexpectedly figured out Cheryl's temperament.

Very amazing.

"As expected, you don't really know the real reason, do you?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Our mission is to stay here. Don't think about anything else."

Cheryl yelled at Adelaide angrily, trying to hide her shyness and embarrassment in this way.

"If Alfred and the others' plan goes wrong, we will be in big trouble. There's nothing wrong with making some preparations in advance, right?"

Adelaide retorted triumphantly, wanting to continue to embarrass Cheryl.

"But you don't know the full picture of their plan, right? Then how do you know where their plan has loopholes, and how the enemy will act to disrupt the original plan?"

As if to vent her dissatisfaction, Sheryl threw a grenade at the monsters whose number suddenly increased.

(Wow, why didn't Alfred send me this kind of item? I want to protest!)

Adelaide complained in his heart without any tension.

After the huge explosion died down, Sheryl continued with the previous topic.

"If you don't even know these things, what can you come up with even if you try?! Just focus on destroying the enemy!"

"Ouch! Damn it."

[You two are so relaxed that you even have time to quarrel. I'm busy as hell here. There's a big guy approaching who may be a bit troublesome for you. I can't hold him back here. Be careful.]

Sylvia's tired voice came from Adelaide's headphones.

"Eh? Miss Sylvia, you are super powerful, right? Please trap him for a while longer."

Adelaide complained.

[Don't be ridiculous. How many space teleportation magic circles do you think I manage now? You should all thank me for being able to hold on until now! ]

"Okay, okay, I'm really grateful to you..."

Before Edward could finish his words, he heard the sound of metal colliding and something rubbing against the ground from the other end of the passage.

A burly man over two meters tall, wearing full body armor and holding a ball and a chain, emerged from the shadows of the corridor.

[I will now move all the monsters to the banquet hall, you two just focus on dealing with this guy. ]

(What do you mean by focusing on the fight? With a rifle as an external item, it should be easy to deal with, right?)

Adelaide thought to himself without taking it seriously.

But when she really pointed the gun at the man in front of her, she found that her hands were shaking and she couldn't pull the trigger of the rifle at all.

Although when hunting monsters, Edward was somewhat like playing a game.

But when she was about to shoot someone, she started to get scared. Targeting monsters was completely different from targeting humans.

"Leave this to me, you retreat first."

Perhaps sensing Adelaide's fear, Sheryl said this to her.

At the same time, Cheryl pulled the trigger at the burly man without hesitation.

As the bullet hit the armor, an explosion sounded immediately.

But as the smoke cleared, the burly man continued to stroll in the direction of the two men, unharmed.

Not to mention causing any harm to him personally, even the armor on his body did not show any obvious damage.

"Tsk, this bastard, his armor is really as hard as a turtle."

Cheryl smacked her lips and pulled out the lightsaber and pistol hanging from her waist.

Like a certain cheating player, she seemed to be planning to use these two weapons to engage in close combat with the burly man in front of her.

(Just kidding, is she crazy?!)

Adelaide yelled in her heart in shock. She wanted to stop Cheryl, but before she could speak, Cheryl spoke first.

"Edlaide, I will be fighting this big guy in close combat. Although the magic bullets cannot cause any damage to him, they can hinder his movements. Next, I ask you to try your best to attack his limbs and hinder his movements."

Sheryl said this in a very low voice, the sound coming through the headphones.

"What, don't force me!"

"Also, don't hit me. If you do, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."

Cheryl ignored Adelaide's complaints and gave her a bright smile.

(Woo~! I know this guy, I know!)

Edward raised his rifle in despair, trying to suppress his fear and aim at the burly man.
