[Strategy Meeting]

Anyways, we somehow managed to calm Elma down, then I tried to give a rundown of the situation with Agartha but,

――Boing boing.

“So, uh, what’s up with that…?”

“Mind your own business.”

I was somewhat distracted by Elma’s unnatural big breasts.

It seemed to be an air defensive wall given by Turbo-sama, but why would she need to activate it now?

No, considering the earlier ruckus was caused by the topic of breasts, it might be her protest action…

Still, just what kind of defensive wall was that…

Being together all the time since we were kids, I inevitably followed Elma’s growth in breasts department, and this look of hers felt very incongrous to me…

As I released a little sigh at Elma turning her face away, I pulled myself together and said, “Anyway, the only one left is the ‘Axe’ Saint Boreios, but considering his movement speed, I think I can carry all of you in Phoenix Form and still catch up to him.
Isn’t that right, Shiva-san?”

“Yes.
In the first place, the minotaur village is located deep underground in an isolated island, and his swimming speed isn’t at alarming level, either.
Well, whether it can be called ‘swimming’ is another matter, though.”

“Why? Is his way of swimming weird or something?” Tirna—who was poking Porco-san’s belly—asked, looking interested.

Shiva-san shrugged her shoulders, “Yes, it’s weird… no, amazing would be a better way to put it, perhaps,” and said, “I mean, he’s running on the ocean floor.
Furthermore, he’s as fast if he’s on land.”

“!”

Yep, that was definitely amazing.

But I don’t think that counts as‘swimming’…

As I was thinking inwardly, Zana nodded, “I see,” and said, “In other words, there’s a possibility it’d turn into an underwater battle, right? But I think that’d give us a big advantage.”

“Yeah.
It’s possible depending on the situation.
There’s no need to go out of our way to fight on equal grounds with him,” said Shiva-san.

“Fumu.
In that case, Exa can first incapacitate him in underwater battle with Tirna’s《Superior Arms》, then have Ophir purify him with her Holy Armament—I think this is the safest and most effective way to go about it at the moment, what do you think?”

To Arca’s proposal, the girls nodded one after another.

Though as they did, a couple of people raised an objection to this strategy.

“H-hang on!? If we do it that way, I wouldn’t get a turn to activate《Superior Arms》, would I!?”

“E-exactly!? If it’s about moving underwater, I can do so as well! A-and, to be safer, I think it’d be best if we engage him at long distance with my《Superior Arms》, don’t you agree!?”

Yes, they were Ophir and Magmell.

So far, due to time constraints, I only brought a minimum number of people to take down the saints.

And now that restriction was lifted, it’d be best to switch to a safer strategy but…

“However, Magmell wouldn’t be able to move that fast, and if Mr.
Cow is running at the same as speed as on land, he may be able to avoid large-scale long-range attacks.
Visibility is also a matter of concern.
With all that taken into consideration, I’m the most suitable one to deal with him.”

“Ugh…”

As Tirna puffed up her small chest, Magmell clenched lips, looking vexed.

However, there was still one other person needed to be persuaded.
It was Ophir, who had the same rare skill of《Axe》as Boreios, “O-oi, what ‘bout me!?”

“There’d be no point for you to fight underwater to begin with, Ophir.
Beacuse only on land can you bring out your full power.
Your attack power would also be the highest among us, then.”

“W-well, that’s natural.” Ophir grinned, scratching her nose.

“No, what are you grinning for? She’s basically saying you’re excluded from the battle, get it?”

“Wha!?”

At Elma’s retort, Ophir opened her eyes wide, shocked.

Meanwhile.

Having absorbed both Terra and Fluga, Phinis was searching all over the world with her sense, which had been sharpened thanks to Terra and Fluga’s powers.

Needless to say, she was looking for the ‘Sword’ and the ‘Shield’ Saints.

The ‘Shield’ was one thing, but she couldn’t get how the ‘Sword’ was able to conceal his presence from her.
But that was fine.

Because she had found a person… no, ‘people’ to substitute for him.

“Oh…? This is…?”

At that time, Phinis suddenly picked up something.

Although it was weak, she sensed that that the number of presences in the northern town had increased by one.

“Ufufu, I knew you were there…” Phinis sunk her body into the black aura under her feet, laughing happily.
