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

Chapter 25 - Sudden Pinch

"Fianna is already started. I need to join in right away."

I muttered. I gathered my mana and created a magic circle. The magic circle duplicated itself and became looked like a cannon. It was my favorite magic combination. I reached for my pocket and picked out several vials containing various liquids inside. I lazily threw the vials into the closest magic circle.

BOOM!!

The vial disappeared and an explosion occurred at the distance. I looked up voluntarily when I saw the flying magic beasts passed by. Anastasia had started her attacks. I shifted the magic circle barrel several times as I aimed at the approaching cavalry.

Chemical reaction occurred every time the vial broke and created a dust explosion. Each explosion would claim several knights along with their mounts within its range.

"Hmm?"

I stopped firing when I saw a single horseman approached me while being unscathed after receiving such strong explosion. I dispelled my magic circle and summoned my regalia replica, the spear of justice. I grabbed my spear and lunged it toward the approaching horseman, Daigo.

"I thought you're going to run away again, Ren."

He said as he parried my spear with his sword. He jumped from his horse and swung his sword at me. I stepped back as I lunged my spear forward. My attack was quite amateurish as I have no skill or job to support this style of combat.

I gathered my mana. I summoned my sacred treasure and readied my stance. Daigo who saw my battle stance snickered.

"I guess it's time to end this farce eternally."

He said. He took a communication tool which was similar with the ones I got from the traitors. He smirked and threw it casually at me. I dodged it as it was slow but then I realized it was a trap. The orb shaped object glowed beside me and the other orbs in my possession flew out voluntarily from my magic bag and flew around me in circular motion. When the last orb flew out, the orbs stopped moving and shattered into pieces.

"What was that just now?"

I asked as I readied my spear.

"Weeelll, I wonder about that."

He smirked disgustingly. I furrowed my eyebrows and readied my position. I ran forward. I lunged my spear at him with my full speed. Even I had no skill for it, my stats was enhanced by my level and with our level difference it should be enough to put some damage on him.

But, my expectation was shattered. When my spear made contact with his armor, it turned into small particles and disappeared along with my gauntlets. I widened my eyes and reflexively took some distance.

Daigo laughed maniacally.

"What's wrong, Ren Concerto? Where's your confidence from few moments ago?"

Daigo asked. I tried to summon my sacred treasure but no avail. I glared at Daigo.

"If you're not attacking, then I will!!"

He leaped toward me. His speed was faster from before. I leaped to the side. I created a magic circle to attack him with Arcane spell but my eyes widened when I saw that my magic circle evaporated before disappearing.

"What's wrong, great Ren-sama?"

He asked mockingly. He was grinning endlessly.

"EAT THIS!!!"

He swung down his sword. I leaped away to dodge. Dust rose to the air and I received some dust on my body. It was then I realized something was missing. I was unable to taste the dirt in my mouth. I glared at Daigo.
