Episode 59

“Yeah, I can’t help it. then-“

Julius shook his head.

“Now we know the attack.”

Linbell’s eyes closed.

A black area began to spread under her feet.

‘No, rather than black.’

night sky.

It was as clear as the night sky hung in the sky.

She remembered the first time she fell here.

At that time, I couldn’t understand why I had come here.

The trials of the divine beast show trials related to what the person wants.

At first I thought it was because of prana.

‘But now.’

Through the pouring lightning, I stepped forward.

I put sincerity in every step.

Longing for two steps. Looking forward to three steps.

wind in your steps. Hope in five steps.

Hope in six steps. Aspiration in seven steps.

A commitment to eight steps.

“You are struggling!”

She stopped, leaving her last step.

In front of him was a dragon made of thunderbolts with his mouth open.

“It’s funny. Not being able to control one’s own emotions. What is the power?”

She forgot everything she had just recited.

“In the end, it’s only me who sets the limits.”

Linbell’s feelings were looking at only one person from the beginning.

No impurities can be added to it.

The Milky Way spreads out in the night sky, and she takes her last step.

In the end, I swear.

Everything she had realized was contained in these nine steps.

Her hard work and pure black ability.

The ending to end this ordeal.

Dozens of emotions go straight for this one.

The night sky was formed by footsteps, and the stars twinkled above it.

“No, how did you avoid it… !”

“Bye. Confucius.”

Starlight flickered.

The night sky rose and attacked the possessor.

‘Really, you did it.’

Dozens of holes were drilled over Julius’ body, which was emitting an electric light.

The thunderclouds that covered the sky dispersed, and the noble body rolled on the floor.

“Confucius, have you seen it? You can do it.”

He could see him with his mouth open in her eyes.

He was neither perfect nor relaxed like the one he had met.

I can’t sleep without medicine.

Even though my body is broken, I can’t give up alcohol and cigarettes.

Even though he tells him to give up with his words, he is full of worries on the inside.

She limped and looked down at Allen.

“how… , how do you like Julius… .”

She saw her body full of red ooze.

“That’s it, do you think you can do it?”

“ね, yes.”

There was no more confusion in Allen’s eyes.

He let out a big laugh out of breath.

“Unfortunately, we couldn’t find the real Julius-sama.”

“That’s it, now.”

“Have you not reached? If you can get it, I can do it too.”

“You can’t change the past.”

To Linbell’s grunt, Allen replied as if it were funny.

“I knew it would. Oh, does the last skill have a name?”

“no. Not yet.”

“Then is it okay if I decide?”

She nodded.

“Tezcatlipoca.”

Allen replied with a smile.

“It means a smoking mirror.”

“Eh, what is that?”

“Well, it’s more popular to mean the name of an ancient fallen god than that.”

“What kind of new person are you?”

“The god of war, the god of the night and the reaper.”

It was a name that suited her figure of harvesting necks in the black sky.

“… Well, not bad.”

“It’s vague.”

When Allen burst into laughter, she laughed too.

Linbell whispered in a calm tone.

“Aren’t you going to give up now?”

To say that I give up is a luxury.

Allen realized how foolish he was.

“You will never cry alone.”

“You have to eat well too.”

The world began to fall apart.

The end of the ordeal has come.

“Aren’t you going to drink or smoke?”

This time the reply was a little late.

“Hurry up.”

“Let me try.”

I remember the first time I saw her.

At first, when I was making noise, I thought about kicking him out.

“and… ,”

Asurai started disappearing from the end of the world.

“My waitress,”

Her voice trembled.

“Did you like it?”

Allen wished that his expression was smiling.

“Yeah, it was the best treat I’ve ever had.”

“How much?”

“It’s too much for me to receive.”

she was relieved

“What a relief. It’s helpful. Because I can help.”

Allen answered with sincerity.

“Thank you so much.”

“It was nice to meet you.”

“Please say hello to the real ‘Allen’.”

“I will tell you.”

“… because of you.”

Her face seemed distant.

A glimmer of light filled his vision.

“It was fortunate.”

A cold touch touched Allen’s face.

A sleet from the sky saw her off.

Linbell’s ordeal has come to an end.

I had a dream.

A very long dream.

“────────.”

But when I woke up, I couldn’t remember what I was dreaming of.

I must have seen something important.

There was one thing I shouldn’t forget.

“For sure——!”

“I–!!”

All I can think of is the distant emotions I felt through the fragments of the shattered dream.

Dozens of emotions were mixed and scattered around Asurai.

The first emotion that touched me was joy.

Full of happiness, like reuniting with a long-lost family.

“───S!”

The joy quickly dissipated, and the sadness began to overwhelm me.

Depression, pain, discouragement, anguish… .

As I was about to be devoured by the feeling of being crushed by a rock, my heart pounded hard as if I had found hope.

“──Si ─ma! ────!!”

I had a certain determination with joy like that, and at the same time I heard the sound of something breaking and my eyes opened.

When Allen opened his eyes and looked around, the other soldiers all looked around frantically as if they had just dreamed of it.

“… What is this?”

There was action to be taken.

There were memories that I will never forget.

“… little brother.”

I heard Julius’ voice.

As Allen stood blankly with a confused look on his face, a calm voice rang in his ear.

When he turned his head, when he approached, Linbell looked up at him with a calm expression.

Deeper eyes.

A strangely calm atmosphere.

“… Linbell?”

For a moment, Allen looked puzzled at her appearance as if something had changed, and she opened her mouth as if asking Allen what she was doing.

“What are you doing? Confucius?”

Linbell smiled and pointed to the soldiers.

“Do you think Confucius should read through the soldiers?”

When she looked in the direction she was pointing, she could see the soldiers spread out defenselessly.

A confused and self-talking soldier.

A soldier trembling in fear as if he had seen something.

A soldier with blank eyes as if he had not yet escaped his fantasy.

Allen’s eyes began to slowly return to focus.

“… Yes, it should be.”

I saw Linbell.

Unlike her immature appearance before that, she stood behind her in a skillful posture.

‘… What happened?’

Allen realized it had to do with the ordeal.

If so, maybe it has something to do with Julius… .

Now was not the time to ask such a question.

“Let everyone calm down-!”

Allen woke up from the dream.

The case began to close quickly.

“There will be no mistakes like this this time.”

Perhaps it was because of the helplessness of the divine beast’s ability, the knight commander took the lead with a wretched face.

After that, the knights and soldiers scattered into the forest to dispose of the remaining remnants that might have been there.

“How is Shinsu-sama?”

“The traces of black magic remain and the condition is not good!”

As soon as the elves came to their senses, they ran towards the divine beast.

Whether it was the aftermath of forcibly running out of his abilities, or the side effect of forcibly corrupted, the divine beast was being corroded by the unclean energy of black magic.

His consciousness has gone down so deeply that he cannot wake up.

Natasha, who was observing such a divine beast, hurriedly approached Julius as if she had remembered something.

“Confucius Julius, I apologize for the past. I need your help.”

“… yes yes?”

Julius, who had had a blank face until then, began to purify the divine beast at her request.

His brain attribute magic was the opposite of black magic, so it would be perfect for this kind of work.

Taking the time that the spirits of the soldiers, knights, and elves were all sold out, Allen headed over the vacant lot where he fought the giant.

The corpse of a dead giant and a ruined vacant lot.

Even though I had only been there a few hours ago, it felt a little unfamiliar.

“… It hasn’t been long, but it feels like years have passed.”

“Do you know how surprised I was? All of a sudden everyone collapsed!”

Perhaps she was dissatisfied with Allen’s blunt sentiment, and despite the fact that several soldiers were following him, she opened her mouth.

“It’s a shame that I came to my senses in an instant, but what would have happened if it had been the same for years! Be careful!”

“… I’m sorry about that, but haven’t you really been tested by the divine beast?”

“You didn’t get it? I protected him because I was afraid someone would attack me, but I can’t say thank you!”

“… Thank you so much.”

“Ahem. I’m the only one, right?”

Allen looked at Bestla, who smiled bitterly and shouted as usual.

‘It doesn’t even go into the ordeal of the divine beast.’

Inanimate objects, or ego swords, do not fall within the target range?

That’s why she couldn’t have been able to avoid it if she had the ability to attract the spirits of living things and the ability to get stronger by the runaway… .

‘Is there anything you want?’

The divine beast’s abilities are trials and rewards, so if you don’t want anything from the beginning, you may be able to avoid the divine beast’s abilities.

But as soon as the thought occurred to him, Allen himself denied the hypothesis.

“Come quickly! It’s because I’ve been curious about this place for a long time, right?”

Just looking at her reaction to the giant earlier, it doesn’t make sense to say that she doesn’t want anything.

Rather, it was more plausible that her ability did not work because her mental power was higher than that of the divine beast.

“Okay, take it slow. You don’t know what it might be.”

After falling into the trap of the warlock and being swept away by the ordeal of the divine beast, Allen raised his vigilance.

But despite his tension, there was nothing in the building.

“… I have nothing to bring.”

Passing through the demolished walls, I saw a messy interior.

The corpses of monsters piled up in heaps and materials scattered here and there. The smell of rot vibrated in the room, and the walls on all sides collapsed.

Looking at the broken walls and the traces of the straight passageway, we could guess that the dead giant had escaped from here.

‘After all, it was a chimera.’

Regeneration and power are both clumsy.

It was only natural that the outward appearance was plausible and did not reach the ability of a true giant.

Allen immediately scans the interior with his senses, and calls the soldiers waiting outside the building to order a search.

But I didn’t expect to get anything useful.

It was strange to think that important information would be unharmed with the burning marks on the floors and walls and the traces of something burned.

“Did you find anything?”

To Allen’s question, Bestla answered in a disappointed voice.

“… no. I thought I’d feel something when I went inside, but I can’t find anything.”

“I’m sorry.”

“no. After all, the purpose has been achieved.”

She murmured in a muffled tone, then shouted again in a cheerful tone.

“Now that I’m here, let’s go over there! It seems that the divine beast has awakened!”

Allen ordered the searchers to collect the remaining material just in case, and headed towards the sound of the murmur.

“That’s a real divine beast… .”

“Aren’t we going to attack again?”

“Okay, we’re talking to each other.”

When we arrived after passing by the soldiers, we saw a divine beast handing Julius an egg the size of a human body.
