99 – 33. The sky has fallen.
With any foe she’s ever met, she’s unmatched in comparison.
In the first place, the opponent is a premise that can only be possible if the minimum response is possible.
Humans cannot stand against the wind and rain.
I can’t stand against the storm, and the only thing I can do in the face of the heat and cold is to endure.
It was like that now.
But at this moment, an exception was made.
Let the holy sword shine.
The severe cold and frost storm, like Mother Nature’s wrath, has subsided in an instant.
At the same time.
“Why are you guys hanging out with each other?!”
Calling out as if talking to a friend.
She appeared through a gust of cold.
Aces.
“Isn’t that a normal skill? You were hiding this? Shameless!”
Surprisingly.
Her sword, which cuts through the cold and dead winds that hit the human body, was incredibly powerful indeed.
“… Why are you holding it?”
“Yes?”
Venus was afraid to join in too late, and when he saw the glowing light in Leo’s hand, he swallowed an absurd laugh.
“Not that one, that goes to you?”
“That… that is… Riel-sama told me to pick one.”
“What?”
What kind of dog bone is this?
“Ha ha ha ha!”
Splitting the ice pillars in front of her eyes, slashing all the hailstones and ice shards carried by the wind.
Asses, who was running forward as if that were not enough, was not normal no matter how you looked at it.
“That crazy b*tch has been unbridled.”
“Me, how is that possible?”
It wasn’t just Leo’s question.
“Because the lineage over there is famous for hunting dragons and mixing blood with dragons.”
Did they say that they were even blessed by the protection of the ancient native spirits located in the dominion area?
“Though that one belongs to the cursed side that rejected the divine protection.”
Anything given in exchange for abandonment of duty and refusal of responsibility.
A girl who was predestined to have a brighter future than anyone else, but fooled herself by saying that she didn’t like a bright future that someone had prepared for her.
I was abandoned by my own country.
However, he is naturally gifted and genius.
Wherever she went, she made her own place, and used to take her share on her own.
There was no rival for her age.
And that will be the case even at this moment.
“But that is great by human and common sense standards.”
If something more than that comes to the fore, the story will change again.
Almost as soon as Venus finished speaking, her body was thrown as if it had been kicked by something on her part.
Aces managed to keep his balance and even attempted a fall to get himself up while he was rolling.
The sight of her holding onto her balance while dragging her across the floor with the force she was pushed out of still lingered seemed to show that she was very used to being treated like this.
“What are you going to do?”
“… ….”
“If you just want to search, put it out and search. Then I will personally stab her to death with it.”
“It is possible… doesn’t exist.”
“Sheesh.”
Venus clicked her tongue and drew her sword.
“Let’s solve that first and then talk.”
The fight unfolded fiercely.
Oddly enough, Ases seemed accustomed to this type of battle and showed an absurd response.
Also, it has responded extremely appropriately to the magical onslaught.
The strength of Leo and his party, who had begun to wield the holy sword in earnest, was not at a level that could be ignored.
Because all of them, one by one, were warriors of reversal who had overcome all kinds of adversity.
But.
No matter how desperate an ant is, an ant is just an ant.
However a pack of wolves can stand against a bear.
That is only possible because he has the minimum weight class, leeway, and power.
From noble mtl dot com
But who really decides that?
-… ….
The Demon King watched the situation as if it were bland.
For some, it may be a fierce spectacle, an experience, and a real-time life-and-death struggle.
For her, everything was her job.
Sure.
There, right after Kariel opened her eyes.
There was a slight change in her dry expression.
She slightly tilted her mouth.
Summarized some facts and lightly explained the current situation.
Even now.
At this moment, someone is rolling on the floor.
Someone’s arm gets frostbite right away, and there is someone who is seriously agonizing over whether or not to amputate it.
He had his thighs pierced by an ice javelin and his whole body was frozen solid in that state, but he swung his sword with mad eyes without erasing his smile.
No matter how brilliant and noble the light of the holy sword is.
That’s because it’s not magic based on magical powers, spells, or tricks.
With the Holy Sword, there was no countermeasure.
A sense of lethargy. Helplessness.
Perhaps it was Leo himself who was most shaken.
Nevertheless, when he sees the people around him falling apart, he is willing to strengthen his heart.
Maybe.
If only he dies, everyone might be safe.
However. That is why Leo himself could not easily give up on himself.
… Even the Holy Sword has emphasized that.
Leo, of course, had no intention of giving up.
“… ….”
And.
It was the same with Mines.
Maybe as a result of this, she and her younger brother, Louie, will be freed.
But.
… Where is the place where the person who killed the hero will be?
In the end, there are only a limited number of people who will embrace you even if you don’t like it.
Why did you let go of Vargo?
The reason is that I don’t want to harm my life for nothing, but I don’t know how it will get involved later. There was a reason for that.
He will now be called the Demon King in the world.
Even though I suppressed it to the end, I ended up revealing it like this.
Now, it has become an unavoidable fate.
With such power, who would allow himself to be as he pleases?
Curse yourself for being halfway smart.
If I hadn’t known about it, I wouldn’t have suffered and struggled with this problem.
“Aagh!”
Suddenly.
The holy sword in Leo’s hand began to radiate intense light.
Intense light, before long, soared as if piercing the sky.
All of the domains she created were wiped out in an instant.
‘That….’
It’s dangerous.
Surely, just a little while ago, it was shabby as if it could be destroyed at any time.
What the hell made him this way?
“… ….”
Follow Leo’s gaze.
The subject’s own body is also in disrepair.
Did he get angry when he saw the safety of his colleagues?
And the holy sword responded to that?
In the end, rather than cutting himself off as revenge.
I started to show my anger to protect it.
At that fact, he feels miserable again.
Why do we have to go this far?
Rather, if he’s overpowered and you’re forced to defeat him at his hands.
… If it is unavoidable
I’d rather have that.
‘But.’
I can’t do that.
Following her hand, the frigid wind grows stronger.
It’s like a dragon’s peak… It swells to a gigantic size like a pillar of light in front of you, and eventually reaches the other side of the sky.
Even the pillars of light look shabby looking from this point of view.
Doesn’t shrink.
It doesn’t fade.
On the contrary, it becomes more intense.
‘Maybe.’
I might lose.
But I must survive.
No matter how deep the sin is.
… What is that child guilty of?
No, was being born itself a sin?
I don’t know.
Nevertheless, the world is cruel and harsh.
In the end, at least someone’s will and desire are strong.
Crushed, scattered, and ruined as if nothing happened.
Because I get trampled on.
“Ruines-!!”
“… ….”
I introduced you as Mines.
Did you forget that?
I wonder what happened to myself who felt sad about that part.
Following her hand, a huge storm tilted toward Leo with his holy sword raised up, and his party.
And to counter it, Leo took a deep breath.
……
――?
‘Why—.’
Why are you there―?
An unlikely person was standing there.
The jet-black boy holding that long sword in his right hand.
Soon.
With my left hand, I pulled out another sword hanging from my waist.
In the center where light and storm sweep.
All of that.
―With a sword.
I received it with my bare body.
‘Why?’
-Why do you go that far?
‘Why are you there?’
It wasn’t just Minnes’s own question.
It was Leo who discovered this belatedly.
It was already right after he swung the holy sword.
Above all.
As if most could not accept this situation.
The one with perplexed eyes.
The golden girl.
In other words, it was the Demon King himself.
……
Just a few minutes ago.
The time has come for this little boy who always volunteered to suffer and suffer on behalf of someone else to face the cruelty of reality.
The death of someone close to you.
The helplessness of having to watch it helplessly.
All of this will be the driving force for him to grow in the future.
Someone else might fall for this.
This guy is different.
It is an unfortunate and difficult life.
Nevertheless, this guy was still, still a flower in the greenhouse.
Those who struggled in their dreams.
Anyway, that’s not reality.
So, by experiencing the cruelty of reality, defeating it and overcoming it.
He will become stronger.
Yes.
It should have developed that way.
You don’t have a body that can move in the first place, do you?
Humans, no matter how strong their will.
If you can’t, you can’t.
Anything that can’t be done is definitely not possible.
But why—
Did you stand up?
In this environment where even standing is difficult.
Why are you able to walk away?
It is difficult to grasp even a straw.
Why are you able to carry that heavy sword?
-What are you planning to do?
I don’t know why.
What are you going to do now?
I’ve already left the situation where you’re going to sleep. It’s over.
A girl named Mines will leave anyway if you kill Leo anyway?
Or even if Leo miraculously killed that b*tch, Minnes, I hope it’s to your credit, and it won’t harm you.
-Did you hear me?
… ….
What are those eyes looking at?
What are those eyes pursuing?
I don’t know why.
Why did you carry the sword? Did you get up?
I am in the worst condition.
Right now, just being alive is like a miracle.
With just one step, he was almost ready to bring his own death.
With just that level of lust, he could still die anytime.
No, is it possible to walk out in such a state to begin with?
Even if you exclude all of that.
In this situation where even healthy people can’t stand properly, in this cold wind and sharp wind… How can i move on?
A few seconds, dozens of seconds.
Still, he managed to walk out.
From where we arrived.
For some reason, he just stood there for a while.
As if waiting for something.
Soon, as if both sides were about to deliver the final blow, a brief moment of silence fell.
No, can this situation be called calm?
On one side, a frost storm shot up to the sky, completely freezing the area, and then completely devastating the area.
The reason the surroundings are intact is because a boy named Leo is covering the area with a holy sword.
But this madman, Kariel, is out of the way even inside the sanctuary.
Even with his bare body.
By the way… How can you stand?
Why are you fine?
No, can you say that it is fine?
-Something like this.
Not what I expected.
I also have common sense.
There is a clear difference between recklessness and boldness.
Although I’ve been forced to do things that seem cruel and absurd by human standards.
It’s all a dream, not reality.
In other words, it was only possible because it was virtual.
In reality, if you watched it, you watched it, even if you pushed your back, I never told you to throw yourself into recklessness.
Like now.
Facing the situation in which the death of a dog is foretold, face it.
I never said anything like that.
-No… For a moment.
No way now.
… Didn’t I just stand there to protect that Holy Sword kid?
To say that, the arrangement was strange.
And why….
You draw two swords at a time, right?
As if aiming for both sides.
-… ….
At this point, rather than thinking about this side, I have no choice but to rush to follow the scene in front of me.
So.
All forces on both sides gathered in an instant.
No, this must be considered a collision.
And at that point of collision.
Kariel, who was standing there feebly.
From noble mtl dot com
For both sides.
I raised my sword.
It’s like.
… The collapsing sky.
Only by human hands.
As if he was trying to support it with his small hands.
Really reckless, indeed foolish.
Don’t take it… I can’t open my eyes and watch.
