◆ ◇ ◈ ◇ ◆

The appearance of a huge slime out of nowhere, and large number of people that gathered to watch the tournament, turned the green academy into a pandemonium.

Moreover, sorcerers who seemed on their guard were trying to repel with attack magic, but it didn't seem to be working on the slime at all.
On the contrary, some of them were caught by the stretched slime's tentacles and became prey.

"Evacuate soon!" (Redra)
"Leave that to us here!" (Bluna)

At that time there was a new group was coming.

"Ah, that's the headmaster of The Red Academy!?"
"There is also the headmaster of the Blue Academy!"
"No, all the headmasters are heading here ...!"

They were the headmasters of Magic Academy who had gathered for the tournament.
To be precise, except for the headmaster of the black academy.

They were all [Upper-Advance Class] sorcerers.
Those who knew them were convinced that they could beat that slime.

"Huh, shitty slime! Don't disturbing the tournament!" (Redra)

The first to came to the scene was RedrAckerman, the headmaster of Red Academy.

"――Prominence!" (Redra)

He shot unrelenting blows――the best red magic.

Crimson's flames covered the slime's body, and a scorching wind blew around.
Despite being exposed to the heat of burning, the people who had fled stopped involuntarily and cheered.

Prominence was claimed to even damaging dragons protected by scales that boast high heat resistance.
Everyone was convinced that no matter how resistant the slime to magic was, there wouldn't be any chance to survive.

However, at the next moment, the flame suddenly extinguished, and the slime appeared as if nothing had happened.

"Wh, what? There's no way, even prominence didn't work ...?" (Redra)

Just next to Redra who moaning and appalled, a woman with an intelligent appearance stood.

"It looks like this is where the blue magic to show off." (Bluna)

It was BlunAorain, the headmaster of Blue Academy.
She assembled the formula at a speed appropriate for [Mage Queen].

"――Permafrost " (Bluna)

Immediately after, this time that giant slime was frozen.
Intense cold air blows around the area, and the area instantly becomes extremely cold.
But,

"!? The ice is melting ..." (Bluna)

The slime was being thawed at an incredible rate.
Noticed that the giant slime had regained its viscosity, firing tentacles at Redra and Bruna.

The two could not move in front of the swallowing tentacles approaching.

"Ground wall" (Yelloa)

Suddenly, an thick wall emerging from the ground to prevented them.

"Hoho, that was dangerous." (Yelloa)

The headmaster of Yellow Academy, YelloKiressi, was catching up.
It was a speed that could not be imagined from someone 85 years old.

"As expected from white magic of [Saint]. It's almost as if I was 20 years old." (Yelloa)

Apparently he got a body-enhancing magic.
Immediately behind him was the headmaster of White Academy, Hwite-Alshiron.

There was also an elderly man descending from the sky.
He was Grinn-Elmidori, the headmaster of Green Academy.
After issuing evacuation orders to his subordinates, he rushed here.

In addition, Yelloa created several walls around the giant slime.

"With this being a mouse in the bag." (Yelloa)
"Tornado!" (Grinn)

While dancing in the sky, Grinn fired green magic at the slime that had been caged of.
Redra and Bruna also casted attack magic on the inside of the wall.

"Amazin ..."
"The headmasters are fighting together!"

Those who had fled stopped involuntarily and were fascinated by their way of fighting.

"Haha, with this that giant slime will――."

It was when someone was convinced of the victory and said so.

"! The wall is ...!?"

Grinn noticed it first and shouted.

The earth's barriers created by Yelloa were being melted from the inside at tremendous speed.
The walls thinned couldn't stand to the giant slime, and collapsed easily.

"... O, oi, is it serious, is the magic not working at all?" (Redra)

Bluna denied Redra's stunned words.

"No... that is rather than not working ..." (Bluna)

Her thoughts had been swallowed from the feeling of repelling the worst expectation, Hwite took over.

"...is it absorbs the magic?" (Hwite)

The horrors ran to the headmasters with hundreds of battle experience.

It was well known that slime had the ability to absorb substances.
Plants and animals were absorbed into its body for nutrition.
But they had never heard of absorbing magic.

But in fact, the slime in front of them was clearly bigger with every magic attack.
It should now be about twice as big as compared with when they first saw it

With the magic didn't work, but also absorbed it and increased its power――

"... No matter what you do, you won't win ..." (Redra)

Redra, the most offensive among the five, whispered silently.

After all, this was the magic city.
They all knew only magical battles.
If it couldn't be used, they was completely helpless.

"Uo!?"
"!?"

At the moment they showed an off guard, the slime extended its tentacles again.
Five in all.
It aimed at all the headmasters.

Grinn immediately avoided it and escaped to the sky.
Yelloa and Hwite also avoided it, thanks to their enhanced physical abilities.

But Redra and Bluna were caught.
It wraped around their body and was pulled.

"Shiiit! Release me! Fire Lance! Fire Lance!" (Redra)
"Ic, ice edge! Ice edge!" (Bluna)

They forgetting the fact and casted magic, but it still ineffective.
Grinn also tried to cut the tentacles with the wind magic, but was unable to make a wound at all.

"Sto, stooooooppp! (Redra)
"Noooooooo!?" (Bluna)

Before the fate that they would follow, they screamed in their bodies began to dissappear. And that time,

*Byun!*

Grinn saw something snatched his side, and saw something suddenly descent towards the slime.

That was a man.
With a sword in his hand.

"Arel!?" (Grinn)

Immediately after Grin realized his identity, the sword he swung down cut the slime's tentacles incredibly light.
