Chapter Index

    CXVI.

    At some point, the size of the black sky no longer decreased. After being reduced to the size of a studio, it was able to withstand attacks from brutal superhumans.

    No, is it right to hold on? Seeing as if this is the Maginot Line and it is not shrinking any further, wouldn’t it be good to say that this is a final struggle?

    Would you say that the size of the black sky does not decrease? Occasionally, groans of pain would come out from beyond.

    What happened was that each time Mei killed people, its size gradually began to decrease.

    When everyone died and there was only one person left who had kidnapped them in the middle of the night, it became a black sky the size of a large parasol.

    When the situation became like this, instead of hiding the guy’s body and increasing his presence, Heukcheon ended up telling him where the guy was.

    Like getting hit with a bunch of paint bullets.

    Of course, it still absorbed all the attacks.

    Seeing that the attack wasn’t working, the superhumans stopped attacking and all turned their attention to Mei.

    “Kill.”

    [for a moment!]

    The highest-level demon shouted urgently without retracting the black sky.

    “Kill.”

    However, May was so cold-hearted that she ordered the killing of the one person who appeared to be the Count. And it is the rat kidney that cuts off the Count’s head without hesitation at May’s command.

    The moment the Count’s head falls off.

    At the same time, blood spurted like a fountain from his pig-like neck.

    The black stream, the size of a large parasol, disappeared.

    However, this does not mean that a top-class demon has appeared in the place where Black Heaven was just a moment ago.

    The guy disappeared.

    It appeared that he had run away, as if he had disappeared into hiding.

    Since the guy still hasn’t been seen, I’m not sure if he ran away or went into hiding.

    “The aftermath of the power summoned even in violation of the framework set by the law, and the shock caused by the destruction of the dummy designed as a threat to escape will be more damaging than expected. brother… .”

    May sighed heavily and returned the kidneys to their flags. Then, one by one, she took the flags and placed them in her own space, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

    “Is it over?”

    “ung. The condition is also not normal, because demons do not refuse if they have a chance to escape. There is a high probability that he would have run away. It’s hard~.”

    The superhumans also let down their guard and, after being pampered for the first time in a long time, I carefully rubbed the back of May, who was in my arms.

    Then, like a smartphone connected to a charger or like a tank receiving a dot heel from my daughter, May buried her face in my chest, her tense shoulders gently lowering, and she had a relaxed expression.

    With May’s assurance, the witch moved to lift the barrier that deceived the spirits of the highest level demons, and the atmosphere spread as the clown and the Punisher each inspected their weapons and the superhumans sorted out the aftermath of the battle.

    Suddenly, the thought occurred to me that it would be better to attack first rather than just defend the opponent’s attacks, and my mind was confused.

    “Baby!”

    “Master!”

    “mas… … !”

    The clown and the witch. And even punishment.

    He opened his eyes in shock and shouted my name.

    why?

    A question filled with questions came out. No, I had to come out.

    For a split second, no voice came out and I suddenly had the illusion that time was passing slowly.

    If you wonder why I thought it was an illusion, it was because the Arcana, the Clown and the Punisher were moving so slowly.

    of course.

    I told you this before. How fast does our Punisher move?

    why? No, how? Before I could even think about it, I felt a force pushing me to the side, and at the same time, time began to pass quickly again and I felt a burning pain in my back along with a burning sensation.

    A dirty feeling of something cold, yet hot, penetrating into my body, and a dirty feeling of things moving around inside my body to harm me.

    And it was only after I was pushed to the side that the foul sensation broke through my armpits and lodged in May’s chest that I could see what had invaded my body.

    [Seed… foot. Because it sucks… I can’t escape… . Cough!]

    It’s that bastard. A top-class demon.

    Those damn dirty fingernails.

    Mei was sure that it was over, and given the characteristics of most demons in general, it was ‘normal’ for them to run away like the dragons that had now disappeared, so the natural prediction was wrong.

    “How about… Crab?”

    [Oops! rather… Wow! I chose extinction. Humans are like that too, right? Cough! It’s like burning the last flame before you die… I mean! You damn fox bitch!]

    A black lump came out of the mouth of the highest-level demon who was digging his dirty fingernails into Mei’s heart.

    Not only that, but black smoke constantly spewed out from all over the body. He had an appearance that would not be awkward even if he died soon.

    furthermore,

    Jajjajajajajajajaja!!

    The angry Punisher’s thunderbolt exploded at him.

    I don’t even care about the guy who fell backwards and fell on the floor, making a ‘thumping’ sound, as if he didn’t have the strength to scream.

    “Master!!”

    “Baby!!”

    “Z, proof!”

    The Arcana and the Pope and Caligo’s swords running towards me were also out of my sight right now.

    My woman’s pure white hanbok is turning red, revealing a hideous scar near her chest.

    All I can see is our May falling down. As if all existence in the world had disappeared and only that appearance was all that was there.

    “Me… Hey?”

    I don’t know that I too was seriously injured.

    But at this moment, all I could think about was that I had to get to May, who was lying bleeding from her chest.

    Stumbling.

    The ribs on my left side were crushed, and I’m sure my internal organs were also injured, right?

    So just walking must be this hard?

    But I can’t stop walking as long as I look directly at May’s eyes that are worried about me and look at me with her big, delicate eyes.

    “Master!”

    “Baby! Don’t move!”

    “… Black!”

    I can feel the potion seeping into my wound.

    The warm feeling that surrounds your body is probably the Pope’s sacred spell, right? Is this a healing spell?

    It’s hazy.

    But why isn’t the distance to our May narrowed?

    “Black… … . Master!”

    “Self… … .”

    “Black.”

    why are you crying? Not only witches and clowns, but even punishers?

    why?

    Now that I think about it, my gaze is strangely low.

    ‘Oh, I’m lying down.’

    For some reason, the distance between me and May was not closing.

    but. I’m the most sloppy guy here. It’s even weirder that I’m standing on my own two feet.

    [nice… . Kkkk. Kkkk!]

    The sound of laughter coming from the same eye level as me, that is, from the floor, is murky and rough, like blood and phlegm mixed in.

    It’s that bastard. That fucking bastard.

    [well… Try living. where. Bill… Damn humans, beastmen, dragons, damn it! Why are there so many! Fuck you, you mudbloods! Crunch! Crumbling!]

    May’s head also tilts weakly, as if to match the sound of the bastard dying.

    Oh, no!

    I want to shout out that I can’t do that, but the only sound that comes out of my throat is ‘sex sex’.

    Are they tears? Maybe that’s the effect of blurring your vision?

    The gloomy gazes of Arcana and other superhumans fly into my eyes, collide with them, and break apart.

    There is ‘no choice’ and ‘giving up’ in their eyes. I hated that so much. So much so that my faint mind became clearer.

    at that time.

    『Because communication with the card master is not smooth, early intervention in the system is allowed temporarily.』

    『Condition 1. Confirmation of contamination of the card master by magical energy.』

    『Condition 2. Arcana opening conditions completed.』

    『Condition 3. Approval of Arcana Summon Card flowering.』

    『Condition 4. Passive card death bloom confirmation』

    『You have accumulated 10 deaths of intermediate level or higher in the passive card, the power of ‘death’, and death accumulation.』

    『You have accumulated at least one death of intermediate level or higher but lower than the Demon Lord in the passive card, ‘Death’ power, and death accumulation.』

    『Opening conditions completed. Card blooming. [THE… … ]』

    『Confirmation of death of perfectly summoned Arcana [THE MATRIARCH]. Discover something special! ‘Complete death’ confirmed by the ‘Ti Estin (essence) power’ 《Existential Destruction》 of the highest level demon, GLASYA-LABOLAS.』

    『All link opening conditions completed. Card blooming.』

    It was an incomprehensible phenomenon.

    My head was buzzing and my vision was blurry, but the messages were so clearly and clearly audible and visible.

    However, I was not interested in the reason or purpose of the sudden appearance of the message. My attention was just focused on the last sentence.

    『Linked passive card activation conditions met. Would you like to reverse the death of Arcana [THE MATRIARCH]?』

    “Hmm… Ae.”

    I wanted to answer, ‘Yes!’ However, the sound coming out of his mouth was unintelligible, like the sound of air leaking from an old tire.

    If you see a message that doesn’t disappear from sight, as if it’s still blinking, it means that my intention hasn’t been applied. But my physical condition doesn’t seem to be improving despite the Pope’s frantic efforts to infuse his energy into me.

    More than that.

    Was I always this analytical and cool-headed?

    I don’t know.

    Anyway, I don’t know if it was my will or not, but my mind was busy thinking about what would be the best way to deal with the current situation.

    And it was fixed on one of the messages that came down.

    『Because communication with the card master is not smooth, early intervention in the system is allowed temporarily.』

    『Condition 1. Confirmation of contamination of the card master by magical energy.』

    『Condition 2. Arcana opening conditions completed.』

    『Condition 3. Approval of Arcana Summon Card flowering.』

    Arcana summon cards have been developed.

    Also, you can summon Arcana even if you are not raised, and the power of Arcana summoned from an enlightened card will definitely help in the current situation.

    It was a long period of time, no, it was a short period of time, but the conclusion I came to after a long period of thought was,

    ‘She was a sad and pitiful being who was rejected by everyone as someone who should not have been born, but she was a woman who loved and was more merciful than anyone else. I, Gray, command with the authority of the Card Master. Manifest!’

    In that way, I completed the spell to summon the Arcana with will and thought, not training.

    Paaa!

    As the brighter light emitted, a warm and cozy aura enveloped me that was incomparable to when Pope Jude had just used a healing spell on me.
