‘… … Dangerous.’
Stella thought. The glass is shaking. If you leave it like this, big things will surely happen. If the fate you saw wasn’t wrong–
‘how should… … ‘
It’s still too early to be sure. Because of Ezio’s existence. With Ezio, things may not go as planned. However, the fact that the corpse would kill Yuri from the fate that had already been observed— was that Naberius could arbitrarily control Eidel’s body and take Yuri’s life. As much as that, it must be blocked.
“… … Don’t be fooled! glass! It could be a doll made just after her appearance!”
Stella scratched her throat and barely screamed.
immediately after.
“No, no, I can’t.”
Yuri slowly shook her head from side to side.
“This… my brother is right… … ”
“Even if it’s true… ! That guy didn’t even think about granting your wish in the first place! I just want to see you in despair after being humiliated and humiliated!”
“… … ”
Stella screamed. The next moment, he clenched his teeth and glared at Naberius with bloodshot eyes.
“I was like that too. To kill my parents mercilessly in front of me and bring them back to life… … ”
Memories of unforgettable moments. A war in which even powerless peasants were conscripted. Especially the western front, where the desperation was serious. While looking up at the night sky while waiting for my parents who did not return, I ran to the place where I received the revelation for the first time… …
—You have a nice expression on your face, kid.
In the end, I couldn’t find the one I was hoping for.
Instead, he saved someone else.
“Never believe it. He is a devil who eats lies and deceit. I’m sure I’m going to kill you with your brother’s corpse after I’ve coaxed you, and then loosened the boundaries—”
“according to… … How will it be?”
“glass!”
It was Rubia who shouted at him.
“—You will walk the path of proving your sincerity.”
By that time, Naberius had used the pole again.
“It is by no means easy to follow a demon with a human body. Unfortunately, all human bodies are inhabited by the divine. Only when it can be completely excluded can you receive the grace of the demon god deep inside your body. It’s not that difficult, but… … The more powerful the divine, the more difficult it can be.”
“… … ”
“But don’t worry. If the demon who will descend here soon absorbs your divinity directly… … It can end without any pain. It’s just a tingling around the heart.”
That’s a lie. It is the same pain as an alter ego.
But Naberius didn’t care. After all, all these stories were just for passing time—
“These wonderful horns and wings were also given as proof of faithfulness… … You can get enough.”
That is to say.
Is it meant to be half-human and half-horse?
“Ah, there is nothing special about following a demon. Your daily life will be peaceful as always. All you have to do is prove your sincerity to the demon, every now and then, whenever you think of it. It’s very simple. If you don’t show up, no one will notice that you’ve become a Demon Cult.”
“… … ”
“Your brother also… … It would be the same. When you finally open your eyes again, you will be genuinely delighted to see you. Your parents too. That way, no one will be harmed. Everyone is happy. I abandoned the sun god, which was of no use, and just followed the demon god. What a nice ending is this? … Do you think I’m wrong? you’re welcome. All my stories are true without a single lie.”
“… … ”
“I don’t have much time. Yuri von Artina.”
“… … ”
Yuri didn’t answer.
The bowed head is still facing downwards. The gaze is also unfocused. He was holding Eidel’s cold hand tightly, and he looked like he was thinking about something.
Stella did not stop and cried out with sincerity.
“glass! Because it’s a lie! Anyway, I’m thinking of humiliating you horribly and then offering it up as a sacrifice to the devil… … ”
then-
“Snack… I was going to buy it, but… 」
Eidel opened her mouth again.
“That promise… I can’t keep it… 」
When you return to the market,
the night will pass
“… … brother.”
After Yuri made a voice like that.
Biting his lip, he barely spoke.
“You said you don’t need it… … ”
More than anything like snacks.
My brother’s presence was much needed.
“You said you would definitely come back… … ”
He said he would come back before the thirtieth night passed.
Now, the four thousandth night is near.
Even if we go back a long way and meet again…
Too late, isn’t it?
“The promise you made with me is the most important… … ”
An older brother who never broke his promise.
So I believed it, but in the end…
“Wherever I am… I’ll keep watching… ”
Black ribbon given as a birthday present.
I never forgot, I always wore it.
but…
“I am right in front of you… what the hell are you looking at… Idiot… ”
can’t hear anything
can’t see
“Ahh… 」
But—
you can feel it
“hand… 」
the glass.
He placed his hand on Eidel’s pale cheek stained with blood.
Eidel carefully wrapped the back of her hand with mine.
“Small… warm… 」
raise your head
It’s hazy and hazy as if it’s foggy.
The silhouette contained in it was obviously Yuri’s own.
Tears of blood, one more drop.
… … Knock.
The moment it collided with the ground and dispersed into blood.
“… glass.”
Like ‘saw’ the glass.
Eidel called out her sister’s name.
──Woow!
The holy grail above the altar shook violently.
The barrier could not be broken in the end. It was half-destroyed, but that’s all. As Naberius initially arranged, the rite of advent began.
“finally!”
Naberius turned around with a smile.
“… … it’s over.”
Stella muttered faintly.
──Kugugung, Kugung… !
Black lightning struck the altar.
A violent tremor ran down the ground and spread to everyone.
Magi, who have wandered around the area, gather at once and seep into the altar. The gathered and cohesive Magi——in an instant, flew high into the sky as if they were about to break the common ceiling, then rotated again and slammed down towards Naberius.
“Ezio!”
Stella turns to Ezio. The moment of being strong. The opportunity is now. But I can’t move. Eidel and Yuri are right next to Naberius. If Ezio moves even one step from there, Yuri will die. Eidel’s corpse disappears. I had no idea what to do.
However, it was right to move here.
Giving up the glass… … It was right to save everyone.
“… …ね.”
It couldn’t be.
‘Well then!’
Seeing Ezio’s hesitation, Naberius spread his wings wide left and right, confident of his victory.
“Hahahahahaha-! Come! Drink! Please enjoy the gift prepared with the utmost sincerity of your loyal servant!”
time over.
The demon god descends.
and.
“Oh.”
Naberius lowered his head, which he had broken.
aligned to the center.
He waved his hands with a fishy smile.
“──Peel through.”
on that instruction.
Eidel’s body moves along.
They’re useless now anyway.
All of them will die of being sucked in by the divine.
So wait a minute.
Naberius did something of interest.
The very moment when he was betrayed by the person he trusted the most—the look on his face filled with distrust and despair, Naberius longed to see.
“brother… … ?”
squish.
Eidel raises her hand and tries to pierce my sister’s heart. Tears of blood flowed down her cheeks and she grabbed Yuri’s neck. Yuri giggled and tapped my brother’s wrist, but Eidel didn’t let go of it.
“Oh, baa… … ”
Yuri shed tears like chicken poop. Is it because of the pain? Eidel’s face was reflected in the transparent water drops. As I stared at Yuri’s face with turbid eyes, Eidel gave my hand even stronger.
squeaky.
“hurt. hurt… brother… ”
and.
Following Naberius’ instructions, Eidel took the sharpened hand blade to Yuri’s heart.
“It’s also a good look. Yuri von Artina!”
… … But.
“──!”
Again, it failed.
Ezio was aiming for a very brief moment. He pushed the ground and tried to push the glass by blowing his body. Then, he was going to take Eidel’s attack as it was.
Quang-!
It was good until I hit the floor with excitement.
By the way.
“Where!”
Of course, there was no way I could not be prepared. Naberius responded. Since it was necessary to tie himself up even for a moment, he raised his black grips and wrapped his feet and legs around, blocking Ezio’s movements.
Quadrant. In the end, Ezio slammed his back on the floor without being able to protect the glass.
“Keuk, black, Kellogg… … ”
But— Yuri lived.
The body, which had been hanging in the air, fell and rolled on the floor. He was coughing constantly, tears streaming down his red eyes.
“… … Rejected, did you?”
It seems that Naberius cannot be trusted.
opened his eyes wide.
“… … Can not be done.”
Eidel had let go of her hand.
He changed the path of one hand that was supposed to pierce Yuri’s chest and cut off his right wrist.
Eidel’s wrists rolled randomly to the ground. Tears of blood were flowing, but blood did not flow from the cut section.
yet.
“… … 」
Eidel slumped and sat down.
In the end, he bowed his head without moving.
‘does not make sense… … ‘
There’s no such thing as a will in a corpse.
Even though the crumbs of the soul remain, that alone would not have been enough to disobey the caster’s orders… …
‘Fate… … ‘
Stella was equally surprised.
It wasn’t exactly the same situation as in the future poem, but if it were that way, it would have already been half certain that Eidel would kill Yuri.
something… … changed
“──Hey, man!”
“Collock, Cologne.”
Ezio, who had fallen to the ground, ripped off the black grips, sprinted towards Yuri, wrapped around her and protected her.
‘It doesn’t matter.’
I also saw a nice face.
they’ll all die anyway
“Clap. Whoops. ugh. Kek. slurp.”
Naberius, who was twisting his body like a broken machine, absorbed all the black energy that soared from the altar, and at some point broke his neck at a bizarre angle and wanted to stop moving.
giggle.
puddle-
Twist the joint back to its original position.
So he raised his face and closed his eyes.
… …
The voice that finally came out of the opened mouth had a completely different tone from that of the original owner of the body.
“Hmm.”
A strong sense of oppression dominated the area.
No one could breathe.
Ezio desperately resisted and tried to get himself up, but the light that had been emitting was instantly extinguished. He could not overcome the darkness that engulfed the hall.
If I could easily overwhelm the Great Evil’s Magi… …
Truly——it was different.
“It’s a very interesting situation.”
in a very confusing situation.
A demon has descended.
