"Magic...!?" Sachi suddenly realized.

If it were magic, it would be wise to manipulate the severed part and attack it from all directions. By combining it with regenerative abilities, the attacks get trickier and tougher.

But on the contrary, this cannot be done.

She had seen phenomena beyond her comprehension and had forgotten this. According to common sense, there is no such phenomenon that transcends all things like magic.

Since it is not magic, the only thing that can cause phenomena beyond all things is skill. If you regenerate through skills, you cannot use magic manipulation. This explanation is also very reasonable.

When Sage thought about this, he could understand why Noel did what he did.

That's because of the cost.

If it were magic, magic would need to be used to cause the phenomenon.

What about skills?

Although skills are special talents, they do not mean they can be used arbitrarily.

Although there are powerful skills that are free of charge, as far as Saatchi knows, there is no such thing. For example, abilities that require mana consumption like magic, or skills with very demanding conditions for use.

From what Sage understands, the slightest price to pay should be Ryan's skills.

It is said that by contacting space, he can even manipulate gravity and freely change the weight and direction of objects after injecting magic power. Still, in order to put a heavy gravity burden on the enemy, magic still needs to be injected, and this is his weakness.

Thatch observed the monster again.

So what's the cost of this monster's rebirth?

She stared closely and suddenly thought of something.

There should be a huge monster in the distance. Now, it had shrunk to a size slightly larger than Noel's. Because even the pressure is gone, it doesn't look like an illusion of the eyes.

In other words, it undoubtedly sacrifices its own quality to be reborn.

The limits are obvious.

If you continue to cut it off, you will lose quality sooner or later.

While Sage clung to this hope, the tepid expectations began to fade.

It was just a faint sound at first. Covered by the sounds of battle, Thatch didn't pay attention to the sharp sound.

Only Sage could slightly hear the sound that sounded like a mosquito. Sage frowned: "What is that sound...?"

High-pitched sounds echo around, making it impossible to determine the source of the sound. Sachi cast strange glances around him and opened his eyes wide.

Not just an echo, it could be heard from everywhere around.

If it's something around you, the answer is self-evident.

Scattered pieces of meat, they made a strange noise.

Thatch turned to Noel to warn her of the danger.

"——!"

The sound cannot come out.

No, although I felt there was a sound, I couldn't hear it with my ears. That's when Sage realized.

Although Noel was fighting, Sachi could neither hear the sound of Noel jumping nor the sound of the monster being cut, starting from the detection of the high pitch.

Did Noel notice it?

Although it was impossible for her not to notice it, she still felt a little uneasy inside. The moment Sachi turned his gaze to Noel, his vision blurred.

No, Sachi's eyes widened, it didn't become blurry, a piece of water spread out in front of him. The vertical stretch of water separated Sage and Noel.

"Miss Noel!" Thatch shouted thinking it was Noel's magic.

Not only was he surprised that he made a sound, but more importantly, the sharp sound disappeared, Sage gritted his teeth. This is undoubtedly a protective wall built by Noel to protect Sage.

When this was confirmed, Sachi felt extremely regretful, his own powerlessness, and his small self-esteem as an adventurer. Even so, she can only become a burden to others.

Sage tremblingly stretched half of his body toward the water.

The next moment, the sound of a bass explosion came from the opposite side, and it even blew Sachi, who was standing on this end of the water, flying back.

Sachi rolled to the ground. She immediately stood up and looked towards the water. Huge ripples spread, but caused almost no damage to Saki.

"Noel!"

Just as Sachi screamed, the water surface broke with a pop. Sachi finally saw what was happening on the other side and was shocked.

Neither the monster nor Noel moved and fell to the ground.

"Now! Recover!" Saqi said, and when he was about to approach them, the monster that had lost its limbs actually stood up and repaired its limbs at the same time.

Saqi stopped and said, "How could..." She was full of doubts.

There was no time to answer this question, Saki's eyes began to tremble.

The monster's eyes turned to her.

Saki was horrified, but she turned her gaze to Noel, who was lying on the ground, her feet shaking. Facing a monster that even Noel couldn't defeat, she had no way to fight against it.

However, the option of leaving Noel and running away did not exist in Saki's mind. When she realized it and was about to rush out, Noel suddenly turned into water and disappeared with a pop.

"Huh?" Sachi stopped, and the monster lowered its head to confirm the fact that Noel had disappeared.

Suddenly, Noel's voice sounded. The high pitch echoed around, and I felt the resonance around me. The monster felt danger and began to look around.

However, the sound only echoed, and there was no sign of Noel.

The monster jumped back.

Saki was puzzled by his behavior, but the answer soon became clear. When she touches the monster's severed arm, the arm is absorbed into the monster's body.

Although the surprise lasted only a moment, water droplets gathered in the air in front of the monster's eyes, and Noel reappeared.

"It's too late." She said softly and walked away as if it were natural.

"Lost Triangle!"

Even the monster's reaction couldn't keep up with that natural movement. She murmured softly as they passed each other and touched the monster's waist.

The next moment, a thin film of water formed around the monster, which instantly enveloped the monster and shrank. The monster was unable to make a sound and shrank with the water and disappeared.

Saqi froze on the spot, and the monster fragments scattered around him disappeared as if they had evaporated.

"It took a long time to reduce the size." Noel turned to look at Saki while confirming whether there was any residue. Saki looked at Noel's confident smile of victory and ran towards her.

However, Noel suddenly swayed and dropped to his knees.

"Noel!" Sachi squatted down and supported Noel's body in surprise.

"Sorry, that magic consumes a lot of magic power. You can move after a short rest." Noel said with a gentle smile.

Saki was comforted by her smile, but Noel was worried about leaving Nia and others.
