210 – Final Battle (5)
‘The bodies are playing separately.’
I tried to find out why the God of Light moved while using Medusa, but surprisingly, I was able to figure it out quickly.
Because the god of light and the half body of Faust were moving completely differently.
Up until now, while dealing with the God of Light, I had considered Faust’s half body to be the body of the God of Light, but it seems that that assumption was wrong.
The saying that one can move one’s body while receiving Medusa’s stiffness penalty means that the body of Light and Faust’s body are calculated separately.
In other words, strictly speaking, the God of Light is only possessed by the half Faust, and the half Faust is still judged to be alive.
‘If I can break the possession… No.’
That’s probably not what I wanted.
Looking at the state of the God of Light, it seems that my other self has prepared very thoroughly so far.
The spirit of light is in a state of being possessed by Faust’s body, but conversely, it is also in a state of being captured by Faust’s body.
If another me dies in this situation, the spirit of light cannot choose the option of abandoning its owner and entering someone else’s body as it has done so far. It just explodes with another me.
…I should kill him. Don’t think about it.
“Why, why Medusa… Ugh, it’s your doing again!!”
“Don’t touch Dad!!!”
Of course, you have to get out of this situation first before discussing life or death.
The God of Light seems to have realized that I have stopped Medusa and shows its anger towards me, but its anger is soon blocked by the magic used by Lucia.
Like pastry, the huge barrier formed by countless layers of magic defense shield easily blocks the sword that the spirit of light strikes at me.
It’s not just that.
Blah blah blah
Quaaa Ahhh !!!!
“Huh!?”
The magic barrier created by Lucia cracks in the area where it blocked the slash from the God of Light, and then explodes, instantly enveloping the entire body of the God of Light.
Is this… A structure that stores the damage received and then explodes it back to the enemy?
I’m not sure how I learned this magic… Ugh, now is not the time to worry about it.
“Are you okay!?”
“First, hurry up and go back in time-“
Lucia looks at me and gestures once, and the surrounding scenery changes in an instant.
Just a little while ago, I could see the body of light rolling around on the ground in pain because the damage was reflected, but now I just see countless people surrounding me and worrying about me.
…Really, why are you so worried about me?
Did you say that the way to know how you have lived your life is by the number of people who worry or help you when you are in danger?
When I see things like this, it seems like I haven’t wasted my life so far, so I feel reassured.
“The spirit of light is…”
“Iris, Lena, Irene, and Lucia are preventing it somehow, so don’t worry about it!!”
Celestine gets very annoyed when she sees me thinking about what to do even in this situation.
The only recovery magic she can use is sacred magic, which does not work on demons. No, it acts as poison for demons, so Celestine just stamped her feet when she saw me with a serious injury that could cost me my life.
Pajikㅡ
“…That doesn’t work.”
“Uh, uh…?”

However, the problem is that time reversal magic does not work properly.
No, it actually works properly. It’s just that the time reversal towards myself doesn’t work properly.
The family members and Celestine who are watching this are embarrassed and make dumb noises.
Why is this…
Ah, that’s right.
‘ㅡTime reversal cannot be used on myself.’
And then, with my mind cleared, I remember one important fact that I had long forgotten.
I have never used time reversal magic on myself before.
It was because I had never been hurt so badly that I needed to use time reversal, but time reversal is a magic that I cannot use on myself.
Earlier, when the God of Light used time reversal magic on his own body to turn back time, he was simply using the time reversal on the body of Faust, who was possessed by the God of Light, and strictly speaking, he did not use it on himself. It was possible.
Then… This wound… Huh.
No, there is still a possibility.
“Celestine, use recovery magic on me.”
“Yes…?”
I ask you to use recovery magic on Celestine, who doesn’t know what to do.
Celestine is greatly embarrassed to use recovery magic, which can be said to be the basis of divine magic, against a demon. This is a phenomenon that makes no sense in common sense.
“What do you mean?”
“There is no time to explain. You will definitely be able to restore me.”
“–I understand.”
However, no matter how non-common sense it may be, for Celestine, that common sense is instantly treated as non-existent.
Using recovery magic on a demon would be no different from the nonsense of 1+1=3, but Celestine believes that what I say is correct.
Believing something that is not common sense is, of course, the realm of fanaticism, but Celestine is not aware of it. Just trust me.
Thank you for trusting me, but… It seems like the situation has become a bit more dangerous. After this incident is over, I need to distance myself little by little so that one day, he can think for himself and become independent.
Jiyiing ㅡ
When the recovery magic cast by Celestine enveloped my body, my body, which had a large hole in it, responded to the recovery magic and quickly filled the hole.
Despite the fact that a demon is being recovered through recovery magic, the basis of divine magic, no one here, including Celestine, is surprised.
Because this is what I told you in advance.
No one was surprised because those who unconditionally believed what I said believed without a doubt that this would happen.
‘As expected, this is magic energy rather than mana.’
Paradoxically, I was the only one surprised in this situation.
I saw that the light awl that was thrown towards the God of Light earlier was purple-black, so I asked them to use recovery magic just in case… This made it clear.
Celestine is now, strictly speaking, no longer human.
If I were to be specific, it would probably be a half-demon. A demon who uses magic energy instead of mana when using magic.
Because of this, Celestine’s recovery magic will now work as recovery when directed at demons or undead, and as attack when directed at non-devils.
Pfft… I guess the problem was that he was with me for too long, enjoyed himself by absorbing the fragments of my body, and ended up in the flesh as a final blow.
‘It’s difficult to do this, but if the kids get hurt, it’s not recovery magic, it’s just time reversal… Wait a minute.’
Haven’t the warrior parties all received Irene’s recovery magic?
Irene avoided her attacks well and was never attacked by her, so she never received Celestine’s recovery magic. However, except for her, Lucia, Iris, and Lena were able to use Celestine’s recovery magic. I received the magic well…?
Leaving aside Lucia, Iris and Lena… Then… Uh… Um…
I don’t know anymore.
First, we have to kill the god of light and think about it little by little.
“I’m sorry that it wasn’t a complete recovery… Right now, I’m just blocking the wound, so the magic energy, mana, and spiritual power you lost are–“
“Thank you for your recovery.”
“ㅡugh…”
She must have thought that her recovery was insufficient. When Celestine apologized and placed her hand on her head and expressed her gratitude, Celestine, who had been talking about various things, just kept her mouth shut and looked at her. Bow your head.
…Well, at this rate, I won’t be able to keep my distance even if everything is over.
“These bastards think who I am-“
Quaaa!!
“ㅡKhaaa!?”
After he got up and started shaking his body, he released a magic mine towards the God of Light, who was screaming at the sight of the hero party rushing toward him.
The huge ray of magic and mana instantly covered the entire body of the God of Light, and soon completely obscured the light that was always emanating from the God of Light.
Well, it was so bright that it was blinding, but this makes it a little better.
“Daddy!!”
“Are you okay now!?”
The warrior party, who just a moment ago was continuing to attack the God of Light with his teeth clenched, brightens his face and looks at me as if he had never done that before.
“Come to your senses and focus!! First, let’s deal with that guy first.”
“Yes!!”
However, that joy only lasted for a moment. The warrior party who heard my shouting did not react with regret or thought it was too much, but just nodded her head and grabbed all the weapons.
With his burning eyes, he just spews out murderous intent towards the God of Light who tried to do something terrible.
