Just as said before.

Another monster broke in from among the three-headed monsters.

With a loud bang, Accelerator instantly charged into the formation of the three white whales.

The unparalleled eruption tore everything around it apart.

Boom—!! He manipulated the atmosphere, creating a whirlwind that shot towards the beluga whales like a spear.

"Waaaaaaahh ...

With a thunderous roar, the two beluga whales he had shot head-on turned bloodshot and lunged at him at lightning speed.

"Are you hungry?!"

*Splat!* The enormous teeth bit down on the first one, but unsurprisingly, they caused no damage whatsoever.

Reflection can neutralize all forces in the world.

The moment the two beluga whales locked their jaws on Accelerator, their massive teeth shattered like broken glass.

Unscathed.

Wielding the world's strongest power, Accelerator concentrated this power in his hands and grabbed the tongues of two whales in one breath.

He reversed the direction of the bioelectric current, unleashing his full power.

It's unclear what kind of vector he was manipulating, but while pulling on the tongues of two beluga whales, he launched them out, sending them hurtling towards the ground at an unimaginable speed.

In just one exchange, the two beluga whales were completely incapacitated and were rendered helpless by Accelerator alone.

This is the difference.

If Reinhard, the so-called Sword Saint, were here right now, he would probably be able to accomplish something on the same scale as Accelerator.

"Alright, now it's your turn, right?"

He turned his head to face the last beluga whale, a sharp and cruel smile appearing on his狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious/hideous) face.

at this time.

The mouth of the beluga whale in front of them opened wide silently.

"—Waaaaaaah!!!"

It was an indescribable, strange sound.

The moment the sound rang out, a pure white mist rushed towards him. Although it wasn't the kind of exaggerated mist that could erase even the concept of human memory, Accelerator still felt something was wrong.

The fog engulfed his body.

Although there was a reflection, his surroundings were still a blur. The reflection could only ensure his own safety and could not take care of the surrounding environment.

Then he heard it.

"Uhhhhhhhh!!!"

It was a scream that echoed through the clouds.

Under Accelerator's watchful gaze, the beluga whale in front of him simply opened its mouth wide, and then a scream-like sound came from the ground.

what happened?

"Are you okay?"

Those on the ground immediately noticed this scene. Hatsune Miku quickly got off the earth dragon and ran to one of the soldiers who was lying on the ground.

Then, the scene before her left the girl completely stunned.

The soldier lying on the ground was covered in blood, but he had not suffered any actual physical injuries.

His eyes trembled, and he kept scratching his face with his hands, bit by bit, as thin slices of skin kept falling off, leaving streaks of blood on his face.

This scene directly impacted the girl's mental state, leaving her unable to speak.

"Stop it!"

*Pfft!* Emilia quickly used fire magic to freeze the soldier's limbs.

In this world, the attribute of fire is not simply the power to control burning flames as in RPG games. The attribute of fire represents the control of temperature. In other words, as long as you master fire magic, you can create ice or fire anytime, anywhere.

Emilia is now using the power of the fire-attribute spirit Puck to create ice, thus restricting the soldier's movements.

Even so, the soldier's expression remained one of terror as he struggled desperately in place.

"Liya! What on earth has happened?!"

The impact of this scene was so strong that it immediately frightened Hatsune Miku, who had never seen anything like it before.

Even the zombies in a post-apocalyptic world are nowhere near this bizarre.

"It's probably magic poisoning."

The roar of the earth dragon came directly from beside them.

Turning around, Crusch, riding a ground dragon, had already arrived in front of the two of them.

"Lord Crusch...?"

"Don't panic. The more panicked you are, the more likely you are to be affected."

You can see all of this by following Crusch's gaze.

Almost all the soldiers around him were lying on the ground.

They screamed and broke down, their faces and bodies almost entirely covered in blood, some from unusual circumstances, others simply from their own hands tearing their skin.

It's obvious that these are not things they want to do.

Mental pollution.

"Is it the beluga whale? Is it the beluga whale's magic that's affecting them?"

"That's probably it. The beluga whale's mist has the power to affect the minds of those around it, and when combined with its roar, it's essentially a direct attack on the mind... Hmm."

"Lord Kurushi!"

Emilia was startled. Crusch, who was riding on the earth dragon, almost fell to the ground. She quickly caught her.

However, Crusch's expression was not good at all.

"Even I couldn't hold out that long? Hmm... It seems I must find a solution as soon as possible..."

Emilia looked around; almost everyone around her had collapsed.

Apart from people with strong resistance like Wilhelm and Crusch, almost no one else could resist this kind of mental pollution.

"Lia, are you alright?"

The fire-attribute spirit Puck flew directly over to Emilia.

"It seems you're alright, that's good. I used magic to shield you from the white whale's power, so you'll be safe from any harm."

"But Parker! If this continues, won't everyone end up—!"

Seeing that the people around her were still in unbearable pain, Emilia's tone became even more anxious.

But there is no way.

"I'm sorry, Lia, while I can certainly protect you, my power can only reach around your body; I can't do any more than that..."

"How could this be—?"

Puck is indeed a very powerful fire-attribute spirit, but that power is only limited to Emilia.

Because of the contract, Puck's power was supplied to Emilia for use, and it would be almost impossible to distribute it to so many people at once.

Currently, Felix alone can solve these problems, but new injuries are being added almost every minute and every second.

If this continues, it will simply collapse on its own.

"...Is there really no other way?"

Emilia frowned her beautiful brows and asked in a low voice.

Crusch didn't answer; rather, it was more accurate to say that she had already done her best to hold on.

Currently, only Felix, the most powerful water mage on the entire continent, can salvage the situation here, but Felix alone is simply not enough to handle it.

In other words, apart from Emilia, no one else could withstand this level of mental pollution.

…etc.

In that instant, Emilia and Crusch both thought of the same thing.

Huh?

That's not how it works, is it?

The two of them turned around and looked at someone behind them with incredulous eyes.

Indeed, besides Emilia, there should be another person who can also keep their mind uncorrupted.

They then looked at the girl behind them.

"…Eh?"

Hatsune Miku, a princess of world-class status, also realized this unnatural point.

Why? Why is almost everyone affected by the beluga whale's fog, but I'm the only one who can maintain my rationality?

Hatsune Miku should be well aware of this.

She doesn't possess the invincible reflexes of Accelerator, nor the protection of Puck like Emilia, nor the mental strength to forcibly sustain herself like Crusch.

—Huh? So what does she possess?

The answer is obvious.

"My voice...?"

Hatsune Miku unconsciously whispered something.

That was the only power she possessed, a voice that she considered utterly insignificant and utterly useless.

But it should be much more than that, right?

So far, what has Hatsune Miku's voice been used for?

Manipulating others, and seeing into their minds.

That's right.

Her voice should be a power related to the soul and the spiritual realm.

If, if that's the case—

“…Miss Crusch, Ria.”

The girl made a decision.

If I could really do that.

"Please let me try."

——————————————————————————————————————

Sounds and mist were howling.

For everyone present, it was a complete nightmare of death.

"Gurgle—!!"

"Oh really, stop moving around, meow!"

Felix tried his best to heal the warriors in front of him, but the efficiency was too low.

So what if she's the most powerful water mage in the entire kingdom?

No matter how skilled a component repair expert is, they will still feel exhausted when faced with the task of repairing several or even dozens of malfunctioning machines.

The efficiency was simply too low. It wasn't that Felix lacked strength; it was just a personnel problem.

There was no one to lend a hand; only Felix could handle everything.

Nevertheless, the number of soldiers suffering from psychological corruption will only increase.

"What should I do?"
