8. Lost(final)
** 8. Lost(complete)
I decided to go out rather brazenly.
This is because Lost, who resembles Winds and now seems to be subordinate to his peers, does not seem to have the ability to discern lies. Sad forebodings flashed by, but now is not the time to be sentimental.
A red-haired girl who identified herself as Lost looked up at her. I opened my mouth, trying to think that it would be a habit from my previous life.
“Roast. Are you listening?”
“Listening.”
“Take everyone here to the boss you mentioned. Right now.”
“Alem!”
It was Lisbeth who was taken aback by my words.
“You are too reckless. It would be better to join the other forces first, including the chairman, and then move… “
What she said was the truth.
It’s not worth half a penny to face the peer’s full strength alone, it’s an act of suicide, isn’t even the chairman most wary of the peer’s boss…
There are many reasons not to go.
I shook my head.
I know there are so many reasons to go, but there were definitely reasons to go the other way.
“As time goes on, more and more people will suffer. How many image worlds have we been through? And yet still.”
I pointed to the sky.
In the desert-like sky of the Ma continent, things like soap bubbles were shining blue like planets. It was all the borders of a dream, fragments of the nightmares that Lisbeth and I had been through.
There are thousands of such things.
It would be absurd to try to defeat them one by one while people who can overcome the terrible nightmare on their own are rare.
You have to hit the source to finish everything.
And the source must have been at the end of the Lost.
“I still have so many nightmares. Even Eros terrorists have invaded, so we can’t take up more time. We have to finish it while we can.”
Perhaps because she came out so strong, Lisbeth kept her mouth shut and put on a distraught expression. She involuntarily let her arms, which were holding her tightly, hang limply.
“Then… Do you have any plans?”
It’s a plan.
I put my hand on the earth stone.
A mysterious gemstone that now fulfills its function in place of the dantian. The magical power created by this was pure and powerful enough to be better than a fair amount of Seoncheonjingi.
The clarity of energy leads to the strength of output. Now, the magic power extracted from the earth stone is rubbed against Seoncheonjingi, but how much more powerful is the Seoncheonjingi filtered through the earthstone? It was at the point right after the surgery that I suddenly had that thought.
Someone will call me crazy.
It wasn’t a common idea to fight while reducing that little lifespan when lifespan was already shortened to 3 years.
Even the innate jinki cannot be felt unless it is a person who handles mana moderately, and those who can feel it do not even try because they instinctively feel how dangerous it is.
In fact, the way to deal with Jinki was not standardized in this world.
No one risked their lives to pioneer that unknown path. Only at the moment when you are destined to die soon, you might try to use it once, aiming for Dongguieung.
I can feel the energy rapidly burning my body inside the stone of the earth. The fact that if you try to force it out and deal with it, its lifespan will be shortened even more.
I know.
Maybe I think I know better than anyone else.
Still, there is no change in my mind to execute.
Because this is already the trajectory of a person’s life and an unstoppable inertia, apart from the issue of determination. Before being a hero, before being a mercenary, before being a knight and a squire, I was born like this in the first place.
Anyone becomes a thrown ball the moment they come into this world.
I just had a slightly different direction from others. I wanted to go to a higher place. Even if you throw away other things. Maybe that’s why I chose Ascension.
“Simple.”
I told you my plan without any lies.
“I teleport to the enemy camp and cut off their boss. That is my plan.”
“…..!”
Lisbeth shook her head as she closed her eyes as if she was dizzy.
Soon she let out a sigh of relief in her sigh. Also, it seemed that he was still determined not to let me go.
“The results couldn’t be better than that, but… Do you really think it’s possible?”
“No matter how powerful a human is, wouldn’t he die if an invisible sword cut his throat?”
“That’s true, but a powerful mage can spot the harbingers of magic and avoid them.”
That was definitely a problem.
In the end, since the art of using sword swords was a pure form of magic in a broad sense, those skilled in the movement of magical powers could have noticed the trajectory in advance and avoided it.
From here on, it may turn into a simple weight class fight.
For example, depending on how much mana is poured into magic, the amount of free time the opponent can perceive can be drastically reduced.
There is a clear difference between investing 10% of mana in sword sword art and investing 100% of mana. And to be sure, I don’t think even I can react to the utilization technique that burns the innate jinki, which is not even 100% of magic power. It’s an area I’ve never tried before, so I can’t be sure, but I had a hunch.
But you must not reveal this to Lisbeth yet.
Because I don’t know how she will react if she finds out that I’m going to use her innate talent. Maybe it will make your heart that won’t let me go even more solid…

I just laughed.
“Can’t you assassinate two Masters?”
“Haa…..”
In the end Lisbeth nodded reluctantly.
“I know it’s crazy, but I can’t deny that it’s a plausible shortcut… But Alem.”
She slightly frowned at the corners of her eyes.
I feel scolded, perhaps because of the droopy eyes and straight gaze toward me.
“I’m definitely behind you. After all, I will accompany you to protect you.”
“…Yes, I understand.”
I had no intention of stopping that.
Because that was the task Lisbeth was given by her board of directors.
I approached Lost.
“We are ready. When can you send it?”
“3.”
I wanted to say something for a moment, but Lost spoke the next word right away.
“This.”
“Aha.”
Is this how it feels?
I took Lisbeth’s hand. An array of incomprehensible magical energy was already covering her body. In addition, the criminals of Eros, who are scattered around like corpses, seem to be moved together.
I don’t think teleportation is such an easy magic.
I looked at Lost with a curious look.
“Work.”
Lost was also looking at me. Yes, with those dead eyes.
I even wonder if a cyborg id with 90% of its body made of machines would be more human-like. He often behaved as if his sensitivity as a human being had dried up, but Winds’ twin sister had no ego at all.
“Activate.”
What are you thinking right now? Have you ever been thinking about something? What have you been through?
The unanswered question was blown away by the shock of teleportation.

“Ugh… !”
The impact of teleportation, which I hadn’t felt in a while, was so huge that it made me sick.
I forcibly held back the feeling of disgust inside me and quickly raised my head. Beyond knowing where the enemy might be, it was clear that the place I moved to would be clearly behind enemy lines.
I managed to regain my equilibrium in the sense that my vision was shaking and the world was collapsing. And saw.
“You, you… This magic… “
The coppery-skinned woman I had never seen before was walking backwards with an extremely bewildered look. It was the first time I saw her, but she seemed to know me.
“Damn… How did you chase it all the way here, you f*cking monster… !”
I don’t know what you’re talking about, but a little boy appeared next to her. Obvious. It was the son of a b*tch who threw strange magic at me in the Phobos Circle Room.
The little boy who made eye contact with me shook Bambier’s shoulder in fright.
“Bar, Mr. Bambie, run away quickly, hurry up… And that terrible thing will try to grind us… Whoops… “
“f*ck, I know…” Wait, Lost, why are you there again!”
The woman called Bambie, who must have been the boss of Peer, quickly pulled Lost. Her men swarmed swiftly around her.
For some reason, the process seemed very urgent. Like trying to run away from something.
Looking at it now, the peers weren’t one of them. His clothes were torn as if he had been rolling from a battlefield somewhere, and his hair was mostly bald. There were also burnt marks all over the place. It didn’t necessarily feel like an illusion that it was similar to the traces I had been subjected to using the fish sword.
“Quickly, quickly… !”
“Lost, how many seconds!”
“Three… “
What the hell did I do to show that kind of reaction? Rather, it was this side that was defenseless right after teleportation, which was a strange thing. As I stretched out my hand toward it without thinking, shrill screams broke out between them.
“Hey!”
“…..”
Isn’t that level of being overly timid?
The magic barrier that had been activated after dozens of stacks went beyond the barrier and looked like a blue wall. At that level, it seemed to be able to block even large-scale bombing magic.
At first, he couldn’t understand what had happened to him.
Wow.
In the end, they really did trigger teleportation through Lost. Just before disappearing, only the muttered words of Bambie remained vaguely in my ears.
-If I had known it was that kind of monster, I wouldn’t have recruited it…
That’s how they disappeared.
I suddenly became a dog chasing chickens, and I stood blankly.
I was prepared to burn my life right up until just before, and there was no other more flat result than this in the yard.
The enemies ran away on their own.
“……?”
There will probably never be anything more embarrassing than this.
