"In the year 3884, a man named Guillermo Marchitas appeared."

"Guillermo Marchitas?"

Jin looked doubtful when he heard the name for the first time.

"Yes. He claimed to be the successor of Golbert Malkitas and began to rebuild the ailing Federation of Magic.

"I never heard of him."

However, this was at a time when both Reiko and Horaijima had ceased their activities, in other words, there was an information vacuum.

"Guillermo Marchitas is definitely a direct descendant of Golbert Marchitas. I mean, he has the same face, the same body, and the same features. His face, his body, and his way of thinking are identical.

Elena says that since Golbert Marchitas has been gone for 114 years, he must be a great-grandson or great-great-grandson.

"Guillermo looks about 80 years old, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is the same person as Golbert Marchitas was when he disappeared."

"Hmmm......... Maybe Golbert Malkitas somehow went to sleep and spent more than 100 years with his physical age intact."

Jin speculates on the possibility.

But it is only a possibility. Jin cannot do such a thing now.

"Not even on Horai Island, you can't."

Reiko, who had been silent so far, opened her mouth.

"Because we did not do such a study."

"That's right."

But that doesn't mean it's impossible.

It may be possible by other means.

For example, if you fly around the universe at about 90% of the speed of light on <> and come back to Ars, according to the theory of relativity, many times more time would have passed in Ars than in <>.

Going to the future is easier than going back to the past.

"I will continue. ...... Guillermo Marchitas has tried again to attack us <> and we have intercepted him."

That was 12 years ago in ......3885.

"I am Guillermo Marchitas, the new leader of the League of Magic. Surrender your stronghold quickly, or I will make you a prey to my magic. What is your reply?

The Nostalgia Party had invaded the island of Elektra, which was then the headquarters of the Nostalgia Party, along with 200 golems.

"Go back to sleep and talk in your sleep. That's a criminal act, isn't it?"

Elena stepped forward to confront him.

"You're just an old-fashioned doll!"

Guillermo Marchitas snickered and pointed two golems at her.

"Don't lick me!"

Elena drew the shortsword from her waist and slashed down the two golems in the blink of an eye.

"Well, it's an adamantite sword. And your swordsmanship was quite impressive. I'll give you that.

But the sneer on Guillermo Marchitas' face remains.

"What can you do against 200 golems? <

Would you like to give it a try?

"Hmph, you're a smart one."

Elena was saying this to draw attention to herself and buy time for the party members to escape.

"Besides, we have at least a battle golem here.

Elena raised her left hand, and four golems appeared, destroying the walls on both sides.

"I see, this one looks strong.

"It's not strong, it's strong!"

With those words, the four golems leaped out of the water as if they had been shot.

In the blink of an eye, the four, eight, and twelve Golems that Guillermo Malkitas had brought with him were defeated.

I see, this is good. It is certainly stronger than the golem that I have been using.

While he was saying this, 16 or 20 Golems were destroyed.

"It's about time. <

"What?

The four golems stopped moving.

I've been trying to figure out who made your golem. Donald, you say?"

"That's nasty. ......"

Elena was getting impatient.

"Unfortunately, I didn't bring the magi emulator for you.

"That's too bad, isn't it?"

"Yes, for you."

Guillermo Marchitas smiles thinly.

"If the Magi Emulator had belonged to you, it wouldn't have been destroyed here.

"What?"

I meant exactly what I said. Go to ......."

Go to ......!

The battle golem sent by Elena attacks Elena in the opposite direction.

The battle golem is twice as fast as Elena's and five times as strong. Furthermore, they are outnumbered four to one.

Elena is cornered.

"...... I don't have a choice."

Elena makes a desperate move here.

"<>!"

This is an intermediate level earth magic that creates a pitfall.

Three out of the four fell into the pitfalls.

Elena followed,

"<>!"

She attacked Guillermo Marchitas, the clear leader of the enemy.

"I see. He's going after me. That's a good move.

However, the barrier in front of Guillermo Marchitas blocks all of his attacks.

But that was something Elena knew.

She steps in with her maximum speed, and right in front of Guillermo Marchitas, she unleashes her light magic.

"<>!

"Whoa!"

The blinding light cannot be prevented as long as it passes through visible light.

Guillermo Marchitas crumples, clutching his eyes.

"<>!

"GWAH!"

Sonic bombs are the same thing. It's a magic normally used underwater.

This bought valuable time.

Now that there is no one left to give orders, Elena swings her sword like a gale, trying to disable the enemy golem as much as possible.

If even one of its legs becomes immobilized, its fighting power will be reduced to nothing. That is the target of her attack.

But...

"...... You've done it, you puppet!"

Guillermo Marchitas, whose sight and hearing had been restored, ordered a full attack on the golem.

（A few more.)

According to Elena's judgment, two more minutes would be enough to evacuate the entire party.

(If we play with them and disturb them with our speed ......)

But the movement was stopped.

"Ah!

One of the remaining battle golems caught Elena's movement.

"Kyaaa!"

Elena's right arm with the sword was grabbed, and she was unable to break free or slash with the sword.

"...... You've done it, doll!"

Guillermo Markitas approaches, holding her ear.

A cruel smile was on his face.
