108 – Necessity
Bella’s expression looking at me was something I couldn’t normally imagine, so I felt a bit regretful.
It was a face he wanted to show to himself that if he had a hand mirror, he would be able to make an expression like this too. Perhaps you will be surprised by your own face.
Remembering how little time I had, I immediately checked Bella’s body to see if there was anything wrong.
The body exploded with the blow of the dimension leap and was covered with the dead Claire’s flesh and blood, but fortunately there were no serious wounds.
He pulled out the ice picks that had been restraining Bella from her arms and legs. Unlike elsewhere, seeing that the back of her punctured left hand wasn’t bleeding at all, Bella’s setting came to mind and she sighed inwardly.
Why didn’t she use this until right before her death, maybe Bella did someday. She may have given up on life easily again.
Bella looked at me with her almost resigned gaze and said, suppressing her sudden anger at her appearance.
“I’m still not at the level of fighting while protecting someone. So, as much as possible-“
I suddenly felt a huge amount of magic behind my back, so I turned around and swung the spear of destruction to extinguish the magic.
Beyond the shimmering and disappearing magical power. The woman, furrowing her brow and pointing at her white wand, let out her heavy sigh.
“Haa, things aren’t going to be easy after all.”
Light blue hair close to silver. A professor in charge of herbal medicine, and a member of the church who will later die at the hands of Roel. And he is the one who seduced Lacard’s older sister, Ramine, and made her Confsion’s number 3.
Ice Witch Emilia Dewin.
He looked into her gray eyes and opened her mouth.
“I heard that corporal punishment has disappeared these days, but I guess not.”
Dwyn’s eyebrows furrowed at Bella’s joke to kill any time she might have. I was satisfied with the reaction, and I smiled involuntarily.
I continued to talk to Dewynn, gesturing to stand back.
“The church must be in a hurry these days. Even spies hidden in the academy are openly active.”
“I am neither young nor stupid enough to fall for a student’s provocation. I’m still a professor.”
I sent a sneer at Dwyn, who smiled leisurely.
“If I was smart, I would have been an executive. It’s not expendable for spying at the academy.”
As if to stab her in the head, Dwin gnashed his teeth and began to gather her mana without speaking.
Despite all the hard work, Bella seemed unwilling to move at all. Seeing Bella staring at me as she was on her knees, I furrowed my brow and sent a hurried glance.
That means I’m not yet skilled enough to support the enemy as easily as Roel did.
“Why are you saving me?”
Are you asking another question in this situation, I shouted with deep annoyance.
“Because you have to be emperor!”
When I think of what you did to Luna and Ellie, I want to punch you in the cheek. We need her
The robed people behind Professor Dewin scattered around and began to surround Bella tightly.
Fortunately, there was no one exuding a strong presence except for Dewyn. If it wasn’t for Confsion, which boasts a huge presence, I thought it was worth doing.
With space magic, the restriction of approaching the wizard is gone.
To dissuade Bella, who still doubts my intentions, I added a plausible statement.
“And my brother needs you.”
As soon as he finished his words, magic flew from all over the place. Swinging my spear to dissipate the approaching magic, I took out beanstalk seeds from the space storage and threw them around Bella.
The beanstalks are rapidly growing in size, providing temporary cover against magic.
“Are you satisfied with the answer? Can you stop being spoiled and help me?”
At my annoyed words, Bella shook her head slowly. When I was thinking about whether it would be okay to have at least one honey chestnut. Bella opened her mouth helplessly.
“I have no strength in my body because of the medicine. I can’t move.”
I sighed when I saw Bella shaking her whole body with difficulty.
“Still, you should be able to use magic.”
“… I don’t even have a wand. I don’t even have the strength to wield it.”
Scratched the back of her head. If Bella doesn’t use it to the end, can I take her Bella and escape her pursuit?
It was close to impossible to escape with Bella to the capital while avoiding the pursuit due to lack of stamina. Rather, it was more likely to fight with Bella on his back.
Estel and Amber looked apologetic at not being able to help due to restrictions, and went back to the capital to bring reinforcements.
Let’s think about what to do. Said Bella, who was biting her lip.
“Just give me up-“
“Never give up.”
I cut off Bella’s useless words. If she was going to give up, she wouldn’t even jump in to save it in the first place.
As she hears the beanstalk bursting with magic, she is racking her brains over how to convince Bella to use it.
For some reason, Bella looked at me with her swaying gaze, with a slapped expression on her cheek.
“Do you really want me to be emperor?”
“Uh. Very much.”
Roel, the kind-hearted protagonist, would understand if Bella refuses to become emperor.
Bella thinks that becoming her emperor is to prove her need to be herself to Roel, but Roel will always be by her side even when she can’t do anything.
Because Roel truly understands and loves Bella.
Befitting a warrior, there is not a speck of dirt in his heart toward Bella.
“If her brother’s girlfriend becomes emperor, she’ll fall for anything.”
As I added her plausible words, Bella furrowed her brow, looked at me with incomprehensible eyes, bit her lip, and slammed her own left arm hard on the floor.
She let out a sigh of relief at the fact that Bella had finally come to her senses.
After several tries, Bella’s prosthetic arm finally broke. Between the fragments of her prosthetic arm, a golden artifact that had been dormant within it appeared with a brilliant light.
Bella, who had her arm cut off in the name of corporal punishment when she was young, hid it inside her prosthetic arm to prepare for her assassination. An artifact that is so powerful that even in this novel, it can be counted.
The Fairy King’s staff.
It was possible to encroach on the user’s surrounding space itself with the fairy’s power, creating an encroachment barrier that blocks external forces.
It was considered the most powerful among magicians’ barriers, enough to nullify even the leader’s attacks for an instant.
It was a setting I made for my convenience, so that Roel, who escorts Bella, could fight the attack of the church with ease.
Bella looked down at the Fairy King’s wand from her prosthetic arm, then raised her head again to look up at me.
“Now… You don’t have to worry about me.”
The golden eyes contained me.
Bella asked in a cracked voice, still with a little doubt in her eyes.
“Even if I believe in you… will it?”
The beanstalk was broken by magic, and the wind came. Despite the weather approaching summer, it was a cool wind full of magic power.
Everyone in the world wants Bella’s death. Because that was the setting I made up.
It’s not that I disliked the character Bella. When she creates a character who leads the story, she naturally develops affection that she didn’t have.
It was created with the idea that readers wouldn’t be bored as long as Roel’s harem was happy….
It is safe to say that the character I possessed is the original Ross. It was a character close to consumables who intentionally lived an impoverished life.
The setting that only Roel in this world understands her pain, empathizes with her, and comforts her.
So Bella even uses her own life to win Roel, the only one who truly needs her.
After everything is over.
When the hero’s harem had no choice but to win.
In the end, Roel was the only one who missed Bella’s death.
Bella’s sadness, tragedy, and personality. In the end, it’s what I made up.
I hated her for the damage it caused. There were times when she had the urge to kill….
I know the ending of her that even Roel doesn’t know….
I had no choice but to save her for her revenge and for all of her sake.
Because her planned ending wasn’t now.
Boom———!
An explosion occurred and the beanstalk collapsed, unable to hold out any longer.
Seeing Bella look at her pleadingly, I turned my back and pointed the spear at Dwin, who was preparing to shoot her ice.
“As much as you like.”
I swung the spear roughly while recognizing spatial coordinates. The huge ice spear shattered and fragments flew into the air.
Boom———! Bang—! Bang—!
Fireballs, ice spears, and unknown magic. A roaring sound resounded in my ears as I fired a series of blows at the entrance of the dimension created by destroying everything.
Suddenly, it seems that a small cry came through.
