Chapter 205.2

Chapter 205.2. The Flag Has Been Retrieved

The place they were guided to had become a horrific scene.

Trees were shattered and fallen, the ground was upheaved, turning into craters. Scorch marks, it seemed like a fierce battle had taken place, with numerous corpses of enemies and allies scattered around.

“This is… Mii-chan, can you heal them?”

Sena, aware of the effectiveness of Mii-chan’s recovery magic, looked at her with hopeful eyes.

“…Mmm… Something like this…”

Approaching the bodies that appeared to be those of the Royal Guards, Mii-chan checked them.

[No response. It seems to be just corpses.]

Too much time had passed. Recovery magic no longer worked.

“It’s useless. They’re already dead… Why did they have to die, even after I gave them those decoy amulets just in case?”

Mii-chan thought Captain Gotou, who had been triggering flags left and right, would die.

So, she had given everyone Matsu’s special Substitute Charms.

I say given, but I also told them to run if they took a fatal blow.

Even if the charm activated, it meant they would continue fighting.

It can’t be helped. That was the choice that the Royal Guard made.

They should’ve run.

It’s common sense to escape when your trump card is defeated.

I feel a bit sorry, but only a bit.

They chose to fight as warriors. There’s nothing more to think about.

This is the cold side of Takano Miu. While Yamiyo and the others have a solemn expression, Miu’s heart remains completely unmoved.

She looks at the characters appearing on the game screen, just like looking at people other than family and friends. That’s Takano Miu. I’m sorry, Royal Guards.

“We found Captain Gotou! He’s still alive!”

“We’re going there right away!”

Sena, who had a gloomy expression, raised her head at the cry of the Royal Guards and started running.

Mii-chan and the others followed and saw Captain Gotou leaning against a tree trunk.

His body had been slashed by a diagonal cut, bleeding heavily, and it was clear that it had reached his organs.

It’s beyond understanding how he’s still alive.

“Captain Gotou! Why? Why would someone as strong as you… No, now it’s time for healing.”

Kneeling, Sena began using recovery magic. Huh? I’ve been curious about this even during battles, but come to think of it, she can use recovery magic continuously now.

I wonder why she improved her skills so rapidly. Is it because of the same level system as Mii-chan?

Ignoring Mii-chan’s curiosity, Seina activated the magic.

[Life Healing]

Sena used her special healing magic.

Pure white particles enveloped Captain Gotou.

Like a shower of snow, the light particles permeated Captain Gotou’s body.

The magic should heal Captain Gotou’s body. But it didn’t happen.

There was a snap sound, and something repelled Sena’s recovery magic.

“Eh? W-Why?”

Seina was astonished. Mii-chan furrowed her brows and shaded her hand.

[Extra Heal III]

“Hmm?”

However, it gets repelled in the same way.

What’s this? Is it a curse that hinders healing?

[Munin, analyze.]

From somewhere, I heard a crow’s caw, analyzing Captain Gotou.

-Gotou Matabei: Level 45-

That was all. He has no abnormal status.

What’s this? What does it mean?

“Se-Sena-sama…”

“Captain Gotou, did you notice anything? What happened?”

“I-I’m… sorry… Guh…”

Captain Gotou coughed up blood and coughed violently.

It might be a forced event scene, but this is reality. If it was a forced event, Mii-chan would crush it with her tiny feet.

While everyone had a sorrowful expression, watching Captain Gotou nearing death, only Takano Miu was calmly turning her thoughts.

It’s not a status abnormality.

Recovery magic doesn’t work.

There was a similar development in my previous life’s game as well.

The man who returned from the dungeon utters something important and then faints.

For some reason, recovery magic doesn’t work. It’s not an abnormal status.

There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong.

So, what’s the answer?

I search for that pattern from my vast memories of my previous life. Captain Gotou is already on the verge of death.

Even if he dies, he’ll be fine for several minutes, but I’d prefer to heal him while he’s still alive.

“I see! I understand why recovery magic doesn’t work!”

Snapping my fingers, I smirk.

“Do you know why?”

“Yeah, I probably knew it.”

Sena and the others look at me in surprise, and I nod.

“He’s probably under a magic spell that reflects recovery magic. Judging from the fact that it’s not getting reflected, it’s likely a holy magic nullification.”

Reflecting or nullifying magic through a spell doesn’t show in the status.

“Such magic exists? I’ve never heard of it…”

“It does. In that case, it can be dispelled with dispel magic.”

.

“Then let’s use it right away!”

Sena, who seems to be quite versatile, tries to use magic again but stumbles and puts her hand on the ground.

There’s a significant recoil from her [Life Healing].

“Leave this to us, Sena-sama.”

One of the Royal Guards steps forward immediately and shades his hand.

“Dispel.”

A flash of light envelops Captain Gotou, but it gets repelled.

“Oh no! It seems ineffective.”

“Hmm, it’s not holy magic nullification, then…”

If that’s the case, there’s one more possibility.

[Frigg-oneesan, can you use [Eraser]?]

[Hm? Roger.]

I immediately receive confirmation from Frigg-oneesan, and a light bullet flies from the forest. And so, Captain Gotou’s body distorts slightly.

That should do it.

[Extra Heal III]

Even though he’s on the brink of death, he’s still hanging on.

I hold up my hand and use recovery magic. This time, Captain Gotou’s body is fully healed.

“Ohh! He’s healed!”

“Well done, Mii-sama.”

“As expected of Em-chan.”

“Wow, amazing…”

Everyone applauds and praises me.

While smiling to myself, I can’t help but feel bitter inside.

[Eraser] cancels out all magic effects. It includes magic nullification as well.

But to be able to use [Perfect Resist Magic].

I wonder what happened.

I should ask Captain Gotou about it.

I don’t know who did it, but they cast a wicked magic nullification on Captain Gotou and even killed the insignificant Royal Guards.

I’ll make sure to take care of them properly.
