130. Meteor of Light
“So what is that? It feels like the power of you, the hero, and the devil lord are mixed together. “It’s really surprising that you’re still alive after that.”
“That’s the girl who broke into your territory before.”
“…What happened? It is a magical power that cannot be compared to what it was back then. Besides, why does it even have the energy of the devil?”
Clen reacted in disbelief when she saw the changed Morian.
It is a natural reaction.
Because Morian, who was easily suppressed before without needing to transform, has now turned into such a monster.
Furthermore, even though it received a massive mass attack and was plunged dozens of meters underground, Morian crawled out of the ground unharmed.
“There is no time to explain. To put it simply, that is the main character of what was in that letter. If Alfred does not take enough time to complete the task here, he will fully awaken as a demon lord. “We have to stop that somehow!”
Arcel hurriedly closed the distance to Morrían in case he fired a magic storm like before.
This attack cannot cause much damage.
However, if you break the crystals that have grown on the Morrían’s body, the Morrían will not move while it is regenerating.
“Ahh… Ahhhhh…!”
You can hear a painful roar just by listening.
Arcel bit her lip and cut off Morian’s head with the holy sword.
Kwasik!
‘Is this also solid?’
Arcel clicked his tongue as he looked at the crystals shattered by his holy sword.
I swung it with the intention of cutting it, but it only broke.
The crystals that sprouted from Morian’s body were only capable of destruction, but they were by no means weak.
This crystal has a strength similar to that of the armor Arcel usually forms with magical power.
Most arrows and spears won’t even make a scratch.
“If you don’t want to be buried on the ground together, you’d better get out of the way.”
At that time, Arcel retreated far away due to Clen’s warning.
Cow!
Not long after, scorpion pincers the size of a small castle swooped down on Morrían’s head.
It hits not just once, but dozens of times.
The ground cracks and Morrían falls underground once again.
“I just said that…”
“You can summon that much without having to return to your original form. “By the way, what on earth is that monster doing?”
But this also does not cause much damage.
“If the poison didn’t work and the body was stubborn, I tried to consume at least some of my stamina…”
It still looks fresh.
No matter how much magical power is supplied, the person who handles that magical power has no choice but to consume physical strength.
But it seems that Morrigan is not like that.
Compared to Arcel, whose body was already quite tired, Morian, despite groaning in pain, did not have the slightest fatigue or physical strain.
“Ahh… Ahhh…!!!”
“Damn it! This time again-!”
Even though the distance was not that wide this time, Morian began to concentrate her magic once again.
Arcel gathered magic power into the holy sword, but perhaps because she was stronger than before, she did not have enough time to gather enough magic power to repel Morian’s attack.
It should not be at the level of simply blocking.
If you do not overwhelm and blow away Morian’s magical power, you will not be able to respond to the next attack that immediately follows.
“Phew… I will block that monster’s attack.”
At the moment of trouble, Clen stepped forward, holding Arcel’s shoulder.
“The magical power of that thing is beyond imagination. “If you just want to take it with your body-“
I didn’t think she could take that easily, no matter how strong Clen was, but she said she was okay and told me to stay back.
“I am confident that I am strong, and I changed my methods a little after being attacked by that damn Alfred before… So, hero, attack him when he is weak.”
Arcel nodded her head and stepped behind her.
It was not possible to buy enough time by continuing to dodge Morrían’s attacks or just defend against her.
“Ha, the burn hasn’t completely healed yet-“
Clen summoned her carapace, which she had used for her attacks earlier, as a large shield for her defense.
Immediately after that, a storm that was stronger than before came from Morian, and everything on the ground seemed to be swept away except for the area where Clen’s shield was located.
The Kingdom of Hermod was already nothing more than ruins, and it was difficult to even think that there was a kingdom here.
“Ugh, my arms are all sore… That guy’s attack has stopped! Now! Go hero!”
Fortunately, Clen safely withstood Morian’s attack.
It seems that Alfred didn’t summon the Witch of Ember for no reason because he didn’t have a good strategy.
“I understand!”
Arcel jumped high into the sky on her shield.
Alfred said that he could not defeat Morian until the remnants of the Demon King were removed and the magic stone was overloaded.
But he couldn’t leave everything to Alfred.
He himself is a warrior.
Although he was unable to bring peace and rest to the world by defeating the Demon King, that does not mean he gave up.
We will move forward until the end.
Even if the road is cut off and you can’t go any further.
†††
The living creatures on this earth called him God.
This is because we believed that we were omniscient and omnipotent beings who were watching everything from a high, unreachable sky and could read the fate given to this world.
But is God really omnipotent and omnipotent?
God is not perfect. God is not omnipotent. I’m not discussing these worthless stories.
I wonder if we simply mistake the being who looks down on the world from the sky for God, and think that God, a fictitious being made up of various delusions and rumors, is like that.
Rather, I wondered if they were worshiping a pitiful being who was best left watching as a god.
Of course, he would have vast knowledge beyond what we know.
This is because he is the one who watched over the fate of everything from the creation of this world to the present.
Sure enough.
After meeting him in person, my illusions about God were shattered.
He was just a pitiful person who merely existed.
“…Grandma, you’re better than I thought, right? “It would have taken quite a while for me alone, but the time was cut by half, right?”
“If you have time to say things like that, finish it quickly. The Vampire Queen will definitely try to execute me, so I plan to run away as soon as I finish.”
“Her grandmother has a close relationship with Grandmother Clen. Wouldn’t it be better to torture her rather than execute her?”
“Are you talking about being tortured for the rest of your life underground without a single ray of light?”
“Yes.”
Alfred smiled innocently and nodded.
Anyway, with this, we succeeded in separating the remnants of the Demon King from the Magic Stone.
“By the way, is that safe?”
“This is the best magic stone that can be obtained right now. It is a magic stone made from the hardened sap of the World Tree. “I cut an heirloom that has been passed down from generation to generation to the Root Tribe, so there is probably no better magic stone in the world than this.”
“It’s a pumpkin from the tree that the demons grew. “Then you can rest assured.”
The remnants separated from the magic stone are sealed separately in the magic stone prepared by Zion.
Now all that’s left is to overload the magic stone.
“I guess I’ll have to call my baby soon. I’ll need her magic power to overload the magic stone.”
“There is no need for that. There’s something I sneaked in. Long ago, blood was drawn for research purposes. “You can use that.”
“Did you let your baby draw blood?”
“I turned my alter ego into a mosquito and pulled it out.”
Alfred took out a bottle of Arcel’s blood from his pocket.
Of course, the blood contained highly pure magical energy.
“But what kind of research were you sneaking into?”
“I tried to make a clone and stab the devil lord in the back. “The warrior took care of it first, though.”
Makes the warrior’s blood contained in a bottle to be absorbed into the magic stone.
It is difficult to control the magic power inside the magic stone, but it is a different story if the magic power from the outside is absorbed into the magic stone.
It was also something that had been refined in advance.
“What’s left is to adjust the magic power so that the magic stone doesn’t explode… I’ll adjust it, so grandma, can you put a barrier around the outside? “If it explodes, everything will fly away, so try to reduce the power as much as possible just in case.”
“Isn’t that quite dangerous? “If it explodes, it will disappear without a chance to regenerate?”
“It doesn’t matter, because I’m going to take out my left brain and order it from an alter ego I created anyway.”
Alfred, who was playing in the back, eating drinks and cookies, stretched and stood up.
Maybe that is real.
“I guess so. I get it. “We may not be able to prevent it completely, but we will try to minimize the damage.”
Shion chuckled and placed a protective shield around the magic stone.
“Then I’ll give it a try. “If something happens, please pass on the will I wrote to our warrior.”
“Isn’t it irrelevant since the main body remains anyway?”
“That’s right, but I already regenerated my brain, so that’s a separate thing now. “We can’t get back together.”
“I already played it here too.”
The two Alfreds said, pointing to their heads with their fingers.
I think it would be possible to replicate oneself indefinitely at that level, but Alfred himself says that it would be difficult because the mass of the soul is limited.
What if I put another soul into the regenerated body?
“Go. “I hate explosions, so I hope things go well-“
Sparkle!
A magic stone that emits blue light when the magic power is turned.
Starting from the place where Arcel’s magic resides, the red magic stone is gradually turning blue.
This was to purify the magic power affected by the Demon King’s remnants, and also to overload the engraved magic by activating the magic power inside the magic stone.
Blue light begins to emanate from the magic stone.
The light that passes through the protective shield soars high into the sky.
The light cut through the clouds of dawn and went beyond the sky as if sending a signal, and a strong wind began to blow around the magic stone.
“Good, success! It’s me too! That’s amazing! “I can’t believe you succeeded in such a difficult task without any problems!”
“Of course! “I guess it’s possible because it’s me!”
“…I think it would be better if the magic stone exploded and there was one less person. “Two seems like a lot.”
Looking at the two Alfreds starting to talk excitedly to each other, Shion frowns deeply and sighs deeply.
Still, I’m glad it was successful.
Now it’s up to the warrior to finish it off.
It is likely that its body will begin to crack due to excessive supply of magical energy, but that monster will be able to wreak havoc even with its body collapsing.
Because the durability of the body goes beyond common sense.
So, it is important to deal with it before then.
‘The choice is over. All that remains is to see the outcome of fate.’
Zion looked up at the sky through a hole in the underground.
‘What will be the result of this choice?’

“Kuh… Ahhh!!!”
“…What is it this time?”
Arsel felt puzzled when Morian suddenly showed abnormal symptoms.
She was a Morarian who had been fine until a little while ago, but now, strangely enough, the crystals that had grown on her body were cracking and she was starting to break down on her own.
At first, he thought he was about to explode his magic again.
‘Wait a minute, this magic power.’
Then he saw a blue light emanating from the center of Hermod’s royal castle.
It is a very familiar light.
In the past, when he first pulled out the holy sword, such a light surrounded the surroundings and bestowed a blessing.
Arsel instinctively felt what that meant.
‘Alfred, you succeeded!’
Alfred successfully removed the remnants of the magic stone and overloaded his magic power.
Maybe that’s why Morian no longer showed any action.
Rather, now even the body is slowly cracking, and blue light is starting to leak through the cracks.
‘Then I will do my best.’
Arcel raised the holy sword above her head.
Currently, in the dawn sky, five years worth of magic power that he was unable to use in the past, magic power that even Morrían could not accept in full, is floating around.
If left alone, it is magical power that will naturally dissipate into the air and disappear.
I thought it would be a waste to just let that magic disappear.
Because of this, she wanted to use all of that magic power.
It is a magical power that he has not been able to use for 5 years anyway.
How to use it was Arcel’s own choice.
“…I feel sorry for you, Morian. In the end, it’s like you were born because of me. Perhaps, if I could have destroyed the Demon King without a trace… If I had been strong enough to prevent something like this from happening in the first place, there would have been no reason for you to suffer so much.”
Arcel closed his eyes and tightly gripped the handle of his holy sword.
“Ugh… Ugh…!”
Morrian lifted her head with difficulty.
Light is coming down from the sky.
Blue magic power leaks out from Arcel’s whole body, and the magic power begins to collect the blue light of the sky.
The scenery makes one feel as if stars are falling from the sky, or as if a hand of salvation is coming down.
“So, if I can, I will end your suffering here.”
Arsel opened his closed eyes.
Pajik!
The holy sword emitted a more brilliant blue light than ever before.
A meteor was coming down to the ground.
