Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

But this question is no longer important.

The most important thing now is to escape to the Kingdom of Asura with this remaining force before the demons chasing behind catch up...

"Gather the magicians in the team."

"Um……"

"No! This snow can't stop!"

Just as the two were discussing, another voice suddenly came from the front of the team.

They both looked up at the same time.

But then he saw a young man with black hair, wearing armor and holding a big sword walking towards him quickly.

Seeing this young man, respect appeared on both of their faces.

"Lord Kalman."

"I heard what you were thinking just now, but this snow can't stop. It's better to make it heavier."

"However, when it comes to adapting to harsh environments, the demons are better than us. Their marching speed is much faster than ours. If this continues..."

"That's true in theory, but don't forget who's chasing us."

Kalman came hurriedly and patted the snowflakes on his shoulders.

He looked at the two figures in front of him and said in a deep voice:

"The ones chasing us are the Demon Lord Laplace's personal guards, the warriors of the Spelrud tribe. Each of them can use the Mystic Eye and can easily see the traces we left behind. Thanks to this heavy snow, our tracks have been obscured to a certain extent. Otherwise..."

"..."

When this was mentioned, both Gemis and Migs fell silent.

The Speyrud Warrior Regiment.

Laplace's most powerful troops.

From reconnaissance to combat, they are almost incredibly strong. Coupled with their powerful mobility, the reason why the Northern Continent was breached in a short period of time can be said to be due to the great contribution of the Sperud Warrior Regiment.

It's not that Germis didn't think of this.

But the problem is that if we continue like this, we will almost certainly be caught up.

By then, we will use these remnants of the defeated army to fight against the Spelud Warriors...

It can be said that failure is inevitable.

"Don't worry. If that happens, I'll be the only one left to cover your retreat and buy you some time."

"Lord Kalman, this is a bit..."

"no problem."

Kalman smiled.

"Don't forget, I'm the North God. If a North God can't even delay time, how can I have the nerve to call myself the strongest man in the Northern Continent?"

"but……"

Germis wanted to say something more.

But at this moment.

Miggs' eyes suddenly widened, and he pointed at the sky in the distance and shouted.

"Hey, look over there, there seems to be something in the sky!"

Kalman and Germis looked over when they heard the sound.

Ahead of the team, beneath a sky obscured by thick clouds, a dark red sphere appeared. Invisible magical fluctuations swirled around it, flickering like lightning.

"What exactly is that..."

"What the hell?"

Brave Chapter: 183, Brave Ron

Under a pale, gloomy sky.

The dark red sphere kept flickering along with the magical fluctuations surrounding it, as if something was brewing inside. And Kalman didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the thing seemed to be... getting bigger little by little?

"Could it be Laplace's work?"

Looking at the sphere that appeared inexplicably, Gemis broke out in a cold sweat.

In today's world, when it comes to magical attainments, no one dares to claim to be able to surpass Laplace.

According to the information obtained from the investigation, that guy not only has unimaginable magical powers, but also knows many incredible magic tricks. He can even achieve the remote deployment of monsters by himself.

Furthermore, he possesses a strong body and immortality that are beyond the reach of ordinary magi.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is the strongest magician in the world today.

"If that's Laplace's doing... well, that's going to be trouble."

Kalman muttered to himself.

For these defeated soldiers, challenging Laplace would be tantamount to seeking their own death.

But as luck would have it, the location where the dark red sphere appeared was exactly where they had to pass to reach the Kingdom of Asura. At this rate, they would inevitably pass directly under the sphere in less than half a day's journey.

But if you choose to take a detour to avoid it...

Kalman turned his head to look at the many defeated soldiers behind him and couldn't help frowning.

Taking a detour might delay their journey by another half a day. If they were caught up by the demons, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses. Even if Kalman was willing to stay behind to cover their retreat, the effect might not be significant.

"Lord Kalman, I am willing to explore the way!"

Germis said in a deep voice.

"you?"

"Yes, I'm quite familiar with the terrain around here. I'll get closer to the sphere and observe it carefully. If I'm sure there's no problem, I'll come back and discuss whether we should take a detour."

“…No, you can’t go.”

Kalman rubbed his chin and shook his head.

It's not that he distrusts Germis; in fact, quite the opposite.

Gemis is mature, steady and considers the overall situation.

In name he was his disciple, but in reality he was both his teacher and friend. They supported each other and fought side by side, and their friendship was extremely deep.

But many people in this team are Gemis's direct subordinates.

He was once a knight of a country in the northern continent, but that country was destroyed in war. However, he was able to use his own strength and prestige to gather the remnants of the defeated troops from all over the country, reorganize the resistance force, and fight against the demon army.

If something unexpected happened to Gemis...

This team will probably fall apart in an instant.

Take this into consideration.

Kalman made a new decision.

"I'd better go with Miggs."

"I?"

Miggs was stunned for a moment.

Kalman nodded and explained:

"If that's really the enemy's plan, I can manage it with my strength. If that doesn't work, I'll cover them, and Miggs can do his best to relay the information back."

"This……"

Gemis and Migs looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Okay, time is short and the task is heavy, so stop talking nonsense."

Kalman interrupted their thoughts.

"Gemis, you lead the team to keep moving forward, don't stop. Miggs and I will hurry up and go over to investigate. We plan to go back and forth within a day. That's it."

"……All right."

Germis sighed.

He knew Kalman had made his decision and it wouldn't change.

Then Kalman and Miggs left the team and sped up their pace towards the bottom of the dark red sphere.

It is now the snow season in the northern continent.

The heavy snow covered almost the entire land, making travel extremely difficult. Even in times without war, no one would travel far at this time of year.

It took almost two or three hours for the two to leave the team.

The team was no longer visible behind him.

However, both Kalman and Miggs were born and raised in the North, so they had a basic sense of direction.

Just as the two were on their way, the situation in the sky changed again.

The dark red sphere began to tremble unsteadily, as if something inside was about to burst out. As the dark red sphere continued to tremble, the surrounding sky and clouds gradually took on a rich color.

Brown, black, purple, yellow...

Various ominous colors spread continuously towards the surrounding sky with the dark red sphere as the center.

It's like a stroke of bold ink on paper.

The force penetrates through the back of the paper, making the entire paper stained with color.

"I have an ominous feeling."

Miggs broke out in a cold sweat because the scene was so shocking.

The entire sky changed with the vibration of the dark red sphere. If this was magic, it would be hard to imagine how terrifying it was.

Could it be the legendary god-level magic...

"Om-"

Just as Miggs was thinking.

Suddenly, a sudden change occurred.

The dark red sphere shattered, releasing an astonishingly dazzling light.

A pillar of light descended from the sky, landing straight on the ground below.

With a loud rumble, the earth shook violently. The thick clouds that had been blanketed with heavy snow vanished in an instant, as if only the last rays of light remained in the world.

Immediately afterwards, violent gales and shock waves swept in.

Kalman raised his cloak to cover his own and Migs' faces, while resisting the wind and snow, he stared in the direction of the beam of light with wide eyes.

The imagined scene of the earth cracking did not appear.

As time passed, the beam of light became smaller and smaller at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, as if it had exhausted all its strength, it completely disappeared.

Kalman looked up at the sky.

The thick clouds that had previously obscured the sky had vanished, and the long-lasting heavy snow had finally stopped. I just didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing...

The dark red sphere also disappeared.

"Lord Kalman, do you want to continue moving forward?"

Miggs asked.

Kalman nodded.

Although I didn't know what that dark red sphere was, there was no doubt something was happening. So, it was necessary to find out.

What's more, the destination is right in sight.

"Be on your guard, there might be a fierce battle."
