Reincarnated as an Alchemist - If i have no cheat then, i just have to make one

Chapter 25 - Sudden Pinch

I said.

"Ren-sama, I can't agree to this plan!!"

Alicia said.

"Yes, this is too reckless!!"

Leo added.

"They are right, Ren. You're too hasty in deciding this matter."

Mother said.

"We got no choice!! We're outnumbered!!"

I said.

"Don't worry, mother. I won't die easily."

I said to assure mother.

"In this war, I will do anything to achieve victory after all."

I said.

'Cannon Barrage is coming!!'

Fianna warned me all sudden. I still haven't finished my explanation. I quickly concentrated my mana. I summoned my regalia. A single flag halberd with my dragon crest as the logo painted on it manifested in my hand.

I looked up. Silver lights descended toward us. I gritted my teeth and used my full power to stab the flag to the ground.

"Infallible Eden!!"

I activated its ability. Light wrapped us from above.

BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!! BOOM!!

Continuous deafening explosions kept coming on our camp. When the light dissipated, the surroundings changed. Everything beyond 100 meters radius from my flag was scorched down and had a deep hole. The camp was safe but it became an easy target as the area beyond my regalia's protection had been wiped out.

"The usage of the zodiac symbols are allowed!! Operation Commence!!!"

I shouted. Karina darted out from her spot and departed like bullet. I approached Anastasia and handed her a magic bag.

"What is it, Ren-sama?"

She asked.

"It filled with vials of poison. Throw them at the enemy's ranks. No need for mercy."

I said. Anastasia widened her eyes.

"Yes."

She answered resolutely.

"Make sure to come back alive."

She said.

"You too."

I replied.

"Ren-sama..."

Alicia was calling for my name reluctantly.

"Alicia, since your mother whereabouts is still unknown, after this whole mess is over. Let's travel around and find her."

I said.

"Eh?"

Alicia was dumbfounded.

"And after that..."

"After that?"

"Let's get married. I'm already tired of this fiancé status hanging on myself."

I said. Alicia became cheerful and nodded happily.

"Then, I'm off."

I said before I ran toward the battlefield. I slowed down midway when I realized something crucial.

"I hope my words just now didn't trip the death flag."

I muttered before raising my speed once again. I leaped around and looked at the distance. Flashes of lights flying in straight line from single spot could be seen from the mountain.
