Chapter Index

    One point stab.

    Shushusuk!!

    Horizontal cut.

    Vertical cut.

    Damn it!!

    Gaia’s earthen interior.

    We quickly broke through the tunnel and moved forward.

    But it’s still near the chest. You have to go through more to reach the end.

    blast furnace.

    Point again-

    [Stop it!!]

    Coo coo coo!!!

    Kwakwagwak!!

    Gaia hits his shoulder hard with the other hand and crushes it.

    “Pfft!!… .”

    He summoned an ice barrier using one arm to resist strong pressure. However, you cannot advance further in this state.

    Trapped inside that guy’s body.

    [Obviously crush to death!!]

    Kuguk!!

    All vision turned black.

    In other words, he was buried in the earthen body of Gaia.

    My sense of direction becomes vague, wondering if I’m even moving around the space I’m in.

    Maybe I don’t have shoulders now.

    Coo coo coo!!

    head?

    hand?

    eight?

    ship?

    leg?

    Where are you moving me?

    Even as you move, the pressure that weighs on you remains the same. He must be planning on crushing me to death like this.

    … It’s not easy either.

    That’s probably why he was called God.

    Still, it’s too early to give up.

    “Art Lot!! Freeze everything here!!!”

    [ah! It’s so annoying!!]

    Wow!!!

    Mana escapes in clumps.

    The movement that was moving me stopped.

    ‘Negro. Now!! ‘I’ll be with you too!!’

    With good timing, the disciple sent a signal.

    Why hesitate?

    Let’s get this over with now.

    Tiring!!

    ◎︎ Summon Ronica.

    ◎︎ The target responds to the summons.

    ◎︎ Use reception.

    Faaah!!

    As soon as it was summoned, it merged with Ronica.

    Boiling power.

    Mana increases dramatically.

    The disciple’s strength has improved greatly over the past two years. As this power increases, I feel a power that overwhelms my previous life.

    [her?… Suddenly, some kind of girl… … .]

    I wonder if there are eyes inside the soil. Gai noticed the change in me and was confused.

    Now is your chance.

    Quick resolution.

    Let’s find its body and kill it.

    Whiik!!

    Damn it!!

    When I swing my sword, the soil breaks apart.

    “Artrot!!”

    [I know!!]

    It started playing right away, but Atrot, who revealed his true form there, stretched out his hand.

    Damn it!!

    The surroundings are frozen.

    Shoo!!

    Deep!!

    Next, numerous ice spears appeared and penetrated deep into the soil.

    Atrot pointed to that place and shouted.

    [Search this way! Its body is here!! This is the only place where my ice doesn’t work!!]

    What if you don’t know the enemy’s location?

    I have an ally who can show me the way.

    It moved immediately.

    One point through.

    hook!!

    Damn it!!!!

    The frozen soil breaks apart and a powerful wind arises, pushing away space.

    It was easy thanks to Atrot’s ice spear.

    A large tunnel was opened in a straight line.

    What was revealed in between.

    [These!… .]

    The size of an ordinary human. It was the main body of Gaia, crumpling her face and blocking the attack with both arms.

    There is no need to delay.

    before it gets clogged again.

    Slash away.

    Whoop!!

    A sharp wind blows.

    Wow!!-

    [nice!?… .]

    A long slash hits Gaia’s left arm. Blood, not dirt, was splattered.

    However, it is solid.

    The wound is shallow.

    then.

    Tsupot!!

    One point through.

    It rushed in front of the guy’s nose.

    He stretched out his sword, aiming for Gaia’s heart.

    *

    A dark night.

    Magic Tower Branch.

    “The time has come.”

    “… … Please, I hope this choice is right.”

    Isabelle and Rauf got out.

    The two walked to a stone house. This is where Ronica was trapped until a little while ago.

    The two were planning to attack this place.

    “Are you ready to fight?”

    “… I am ready. However, do you really intend to fight just the two of us? My subordinates are also here. If we join together, we can fight more easily.”

    “That’s okay. Venus attacked the Magic Tower, and the target was the king of a country… If you want to hear the same sound. Most of them are Venus knights, right? And only if they are safe can Ronica’s remaining friends return safely.”

    “… … There are people who are not Knights of Venus.”

    “Mr. Skull. We’re not trying to win. We can’t win with our might anyway. Only the poor subordinate will die. They need to save their strength. You planned a plan to get out of here later, right?”

    “… … … .”

    “Mr. Skull is upright, but has poor foresight. So just do as I say.”

    “… ha. i get it. Let me follow.”

    chuck.

    So the two waited in front of the stone house.

    The expressions on both of their faces were solemn. Because I know who I will have to fight with from now on.

    Just then, the person walked forward.

    Plop, plod.

    “… hmm? Who are you?”

    Caesar II.

    No, now it is Arcedius.

    He got out of the basement.

    He was about to move to the battlefield between Gaiwa and Dirus, but his path was blocked by Isabelle and Rauf, and he squinted at the strangeness.

    I felt like it was never friendly.

    At this time, Rauf stepped forward first.

    “Do you recognize me?”

    “… I wish he would at least take off his helmet and speak. How should I know who you are?

    “… … … .”

    Sigh.

    Rauf took off his helmet and lifted it up.

    black skull.

    Red eye glow.

    Those creepy eyes glared at Caesar.

    “… … I don’t know any more. Why is someone like Death Knight asking me that question?”

    “Caesar. About 15 years ago, you destroyed my country. You probably remember that.”

    “15 years ago? Was it from Truvia?”

    “… My name is Rauf.”

    “Rauf?… … Huh, hahaha! It was you. The guy who asked me to make a deal because he didn’t want to see his villagers die. But… I didn’t know you became a Death Knight. Are you really going to tell me that you have been waiting for this day to get revenge on me?”

    “… different. As promised, you treated Truvia residents without discrimination. but… .”

    “Just?”

    “You threatened my daughter.”

    “Daughter?”

    “Ronika.”

    “Ronika?… Hahaha!!! You keep surprising me. Could this be a coincidence? Could it be that she was your daughter? Oh. I was planning to use this opportunity as my test subject… Do you need permission?”

    Suddenly

    Kwaaa!!-

    Black fraud exploded.

    A wind mixed with great anger and murder. I gathered those emotions together and grabbed the sword.

    “There will be no room for conversation. I will kill you-”

    “Wait! Mr. Skull. I still have something to say too. First of all, don’t get excited and just calm down.”

    “… … … .”

    Rauf said wow… I held my breath and stepped back.

    This time it’s Isabelle’s turn.

    “Hmm?… I really don’t know who you are. Were you familiar with me?”

    “I have a lot. I can see countless times what a bad future you are headed for. 99% of the future is just the worst.”

    “You say something interesting. Can I become a prophet?”

    “Correct answer.”

    “… … … It must be a joke, right?”

    “It’s true. That’s why I came to stop you.”

    “Hehehe… Then ask. What do you think I will do in the future?”

    “Well. I’m not sure, but I know this one thing for sure. If you covet power, you will eventually die in front of a greater power.”

    “Hmm. The range is wide.”

    “So, let me suggest one thing in advance. Even now, let go of everyone and run away to a place where no one knows. That’s your only chance to live.”

    “Otherwise?”

    “You die.”

    “It was the funniest thing I’ve heard in a while.”

    “Okay… There is a 99% chance of not responding. It fits very well.”

    “Are you done with all the nonsense now?”

    “Oh, one more thing.”

    Wow.

    light shines

    A red light hovers around.

    “Hmm?… … .”

    The red moon, brighter than before, began to shine brightly on Isabelle in the sky.

    Looks like he got tanned by the moonlight.

    Woah!-

    The red aura fluctuates.

    A mysterious power resides in Isabelle.

    “Nothing will go your way.”

    “… … … .”

    Caesar’s face hardened.

    The energy radiating from Isabelle. This is because I realized that it was not easy even if I looked at it.

    Isabelle is the only one in Dirus who has not yet reached the proper level. The estimated level was 7-star peak, the same level as Lauf… Right now, she was clearly radiating 8-star energy.

    That’s at least an intermediate level.

    It was a power that would never be surpassed by Caesar.

    As if hiding her power all this time wasn’t enough, the red moonlight strengthened her witch’s power. In other words, she is one of Edelin’s hidden strongest powers.

    “Indeed… There was a reason to shout out loud.”

    “Young one. If you’re going to deal with me, you’d better give it your all.”

    “… … ?”

    Caesar frowned once.

    A woman who clearly looks younger than him is younger to him because she has white hair.

    “Was it a grandmother?”

    “I lived longer than your teacher.”

    “… … … .”

    Isabelle lived for well over 100 years. However, she never revealed her exact age. She just assumed she was older.

    “I know. Even what Aegis did during the witch hunt.”

    Old anger.

    Forgotten anger.

    A voice with a lot of story.

    Isabelle’s deep anger, which had never been expressed before, bloomed.

    Caesar shook his head in anger.

    “I understand. I didn’t come here to talk.”

    Pot!!

    A staff appeared in his hand.

    cook!!

    I hit the ground.

    Snap!!

    Faaah!-

    In an instant, several buff spells strengthened Caesar’s entire body.

    Isabelle was no different.

    Moon’s blessing.

    Full moon weather.

    A thousand-year-old flower blooming in the moonlight.

    The unique cry of a rabbit.

    ᛏᚬᛚᛋ᛬ᚴᚢᚴᛅᛒᛚ

    ᛗᚨᚾᚹᛟᛚᛋ᛬ᚢᛁᛋᚷᚨᛁᚾ

    ᛏᚬᛚ᛬ᛒᛁᛏᛅ᛬ᚬᛁᛋᛏᛁᚾᚴᛅ᛫ᚦᛅᚾᚢᚢᚬ

    ᛁᛋᛅᛁᚴ᛬ᛋᛁᚾ᛬ᛅᚴᛁ᛬ᚢᚹᛁᚾ

    Paaaa!!!

    The witch’s magic has been lost.

    The sensations of the whole body are maximized.

    Your body reacts faster than you think.

    The unknown scent of flowers corrupts mana.

    Instantaneous movements were extremely intensified.

    The witch’s magic that was not used to hide her identity was revealed here.

    “… That’s amazing.”

    Rauf muttered.

    Isabelle’s magic also strengthened Lauf’s. That’s why he adjusted his sword with increasing strength and his eyes glowed.

    Witch’s buff.

    It had a different texture from ordinary magic.

    The chain effect is multiplied and strengthened.

    The working principle and efficiency of the magic itself are different. It is a completely different texture, as if Fiona is not shooting the rays themselves, but concentrating light.

    Perhaps that was why Caesar also opened his eyes wide.

    Magic I see for the first time.

    I knew it well as he was an 8-star wizard.

    That Isabelle’s magic was far ahead of his own.

    “Hehehe… I thought there would be no wizard better than me, at least in this land.”

    “Young frog in the well. I warn you again. Even now, let go of everything and run away to a place where no one knows.”

    A warning that feels daunting.

    An aura that is difficult to make eye contact with.

    But Caesar did not back down.

    Eat.

    “It actually became more fun.”

    After saying that, he leisurely raised his cane.

    6-star linked magic.

    “ᛋᛁᛘᚷᚹᚨᚾ, ᚷᚢᛚᛃᛁᛏ, ᛋᛁᚱᛋᛏᚢᚴ.”

    Glare, refraction, distortion, amplification

    “ᛗᚢᛅᛁᛅ ᛁᛚᚷᚢᚱᚢᛃᛅᛦᚬ.”

    Gather together and distort.

    Quaaa!!-

    A flash of light that seemed to cut through space flew past Isabelle and Rauf as if engulfing them. It was an attack that was difficult to respond to because it was so fast and the light was refracted so the location of the attack was different from what was actually seen.

    however.

    Swish!

    Bye!!

    Rauf suddenly appeared in front of Isabelle and wrapped his sword around her with a single gesture of his sword.

    “I will block, so prepare to attack!”

    Wow!!!

    Kang!!

    The moment the flash of light tore through the sword curtain, Rauf swung his sword again and struck the flash directly.

    Turn around and cut again.

    It was a very quick triple strike.

    The first is Geommak.

    The second is a flash of light.

    The third is.

    Whiik!!!

    A sword full of black fraud was shot towards Caesar.

    At the same time, Isabelle also finished her order.

    “ᛒᛖᛗᛚᚨᛗᚢᚾᛁᛅ᛬ᚣᚬᚱᛖᛗ.”

    Overflowing Imoogi.

    Pushuuk!!

    A jar was summoned, and a dragon’s head spewing fearsome murderous energy came out of it and rushed to bite Caesar.

    “Kraaaa!!!!”

    It was the beginning of a full-scale battle.
