“『Composite activation』”
The eight scrolls in my hands begin to float and open, and then spin around me in a circle.
“『Combine』”
I extend my right hand and recite the next command. The eight scrolls link together and draw an octagon shaped magic circle, with each scroll being one of its tips.
The scrolls move, and the magic circle approaches my right hand.
That is when the giant pseudo-mole swings its claw down, aiming at the magic circle.
“『Serial Manifestation』 Hipopo Brothers.”
The giant claw is stopped by huge frontal legs that appear out of the magic circle, and the wind from the impact of the collision shakes my bangs.
The rest of the body soon appears as well, and its impact is enough to blow away the giant pseudo-mole.
It’s Hipopo’s friend, who is more like a younger brother. It looks exactly like Hipopo, except it’s even bigger than the giant pseudo-mole.
“Gumoh!”
Shouts the eight legged hippo, before running towards the giant pseudo-mole to trample it. The earth rumbles with each step it takes.
But it doesn’t end there. Hipopo brothers of all sizes come out of the magic circle, one after the other. The smallest ones reach my waist, and all rush the downed giant pseudo-mole.
The giant hippo steps down with all its strength, and easily goes through the giant pseudo-mole and opens a hole in the ground.
The limbs of the giant pseudo-mole are ripped apart, and pseudo-moles fly all over the place. They try to regroup, but are trampled by the flood of Hipopo brothers before they can do anything.
The pseudo-moles forming that giant body are all crushed by the legs of the Hipopo brothers.
It’s at this point that I see something floating away, trying to escape being trampled. It’s the mushroom that was growing out of the head of the pseudo-mole.
The cap is opened widely, and it lets itself get carried away by the wind.
“Kyu.”
Seilook let’s out a high pitched sound, and flies away from my shoulder. The next moment, I feel magic elements rapidly increasing deep inside its jaw. I can also see light gathering.
“Eh, wai! Everyone get down!”
I yell while getting down on the floor myself.
And then, there’s a moment of silence, followed by a light so bright it could burn one’s eyes being fired from Seilook’s mouth. The streak of light that illuminates everything around it hits the mushroom in the air.
Above the ground where the Hipopo brothers are lying, the light pierces the mushroom and burns it completely, leaving nothing behind.
