Wow. I guess I’ll post another one because Miki wants me to. Not like I have other things to do or anything. I really don’t understand those people who join the discord but never talk or even log in, why bother?
Tag-team chapter 2
Because I Am A Woman I Was Kicked From The Party
Tagteam 0002
I met the witch at the wasteland
rawr:
The large wasteland in the west.
A land of death where vegetation barely grew, a place where no human should have been able to approach. A spot not far from the capital, but no shadow of a living thing was visible all the way to the horizon.
"—The lords of destruction from twilight, from trash to trash, from ash to ash, respond to my words and deliver this crushing blow!"
The red clay of the wasteland shook from Tanya's scream and resounding aria.
If an average sorcerer overheard this by chance, they may have been astounded, thinking "how could you say such a coarse and sloppy aria?" Moreover, for the chant to be that of the super advanced sorcery Explosion [Ember Rendering Sin]. (tln: EXPLOSIIIONNNN).
Normally, without the assistance of a magic circle or magic tools to readily invoke a spell, it would be impossible:
To invoke such a sorcery.
With such a sloppy chant.
Or so one would think, if they were an ordinary sorcerer.
However.
With a "Kaboommm" of heavy tremors that exerted the ear diaphragm, the rocky mountains which soared over the wasteland——vanished without a trace.
Just a moment later, the blast's aftermath shockwave caused Tanya's ashen pink hair to sway, her robe's hem fluttering.
"Shit, shit shit shit shit shit! What do you mean by "you're a woman yeah?" Bastard! The lords of destruction from twilight! From trash, to trash! Ash, to ash!"
Along with booms and rumbling, craters appeared in the wasteland. The rapid-fire super advanced sorcery destroyed the ground all the way to the mountains.
The figure was less of a sorcerer, but more that of a demon lord's.
That’s right.
This is Tanya’s true strength.
She would normally adjust it to prevent injuries, but the sorcerer known as Tanya’s true strength was overwhelming.
Enough magic to rapid-fire super advanced sorcery.
The magical precision for a sloppy chant to accurately invoke Explosion [Ember Rending Sin].
Part if it was from talent.
But Tanya from her childhood had a strong competitive side and was never negligent in sorcery related studies.
That was the trustworthy and true power from being a sorcerer and an adventurer.
“Respond to my words, crushing blooooowww!”
Venting her anger, she attacked with all of her magical powers.
Tanya had never experienced running out of magic and collapsing, or so she thought.
In any case, such was my strength as a sorcerer, but “because I’m a woman…”
I wanted to smash something out of rage at the Ryan who used such a stupid reason to fire me.
——Or should I say, that the reason I regularly saved my true strength was the puzzling "women should not only use such daring moves" theory by Ryan.
Stop shitting me, seriously stop shitting me.
I even brought up the world's most inconsequential trouble of my recently receding hairline, that bastard!* (TLN: Confusing line here: 最近生え際が後退してきたという世界一どうでもいい悩みの相談にも乗ってやったというのに、あの野郎!)
"Come forth! Explosion [Ember Rending Sin]! And then dieeeeee!"
Along with an unsettling shout, due to the super advanced sorcery that was cast, the distant, largest, soaring mountain vanished at that time——with a kaboom.
"Stop, stoop."
Out of nowhere, a woman’s voice resounded.
In that moment.
Tanya’s sorcery’s invocation fueled by her anger, with a pop…… was invalidated.
“Eh, who?”
Tanya let out a voice in surprise.
This was a large wasteland in the west.
There should have been no humans here. Furthermore, the voice that had been heard —— came from above her head.
“Wa, flying!?”
"Well yeah, I'm flying. I'm a witch after all"
With a buyo buyo sound and seeming completely unfazed, a single woman floated in the air.
Her black hair swam in the air as if it was drifting underwater.
Levitation.
Even among sorcerers, there were practically none that handled such a sorcery; a skill akin to that of a miracle.
"What is that? Or rather, did she just say witch?"
Witch.
The ones who disappeared into the dark annals of history in ancient times, the ancestors of sorceresses.
Unlike the sorcery acquired through training and theory, by waving a single finger around, magic that brought about miracles; witches were ones who used such.
Many held long life-spans like that of elves, and it's said there are those who obtained immortality.
Against such a thread, long ago there was a subjugation… sealed somewhere as a measure, or so I heard.
"That's right. Indeed, I am a witch."
In mid-air, in a light and fluffy manner, the girl answered delightedly.
"My name is Laplace. Nice to meet you, ojou-chan."
……Laplace?
Where have I heard that name before?…
Goddess bless
