Chapter 177

Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (Terkuat Di Dunia Dengan Pekerjaan Biasa)

* berderit, retak * Penghalang yang dikerahkan Yue sedang retak.

Pengeboman cahaya tak henti-hentinya meningkat dalam kekuatan untuk memusnahkan segala sesuatu.

{Tempat ini adalah Kawasan Suci. Meskipun tubuhku hanya menjadi jiwa saat ini, hanya melelahkan kelelahan kalian berdua bukanlah masalah yang sulit-! Aku akan meledakkan diri di depan mata sang putri vampir, dan kemudian, aku akan menjarah tubuh itu sekali lagi!}

Suara Ehitorujue bergema di seluruh ruang.

Melihat bagaimana Ehitorujue tidak menggunakan kedua serangan penetrasi seperti pedang ilahi atau api ilahi, atau serangan lintas ruang seperti tombak petir ilahi yang menggunakan Heaven Existence, kerusakan dari konflik melawan jiwa Yue dan Bullet of Blood Pledge tampaknya membuat Ehitorujue sangat kelelahan .

Tapi, meski begitu pemboman ringan itu masih luar biasa. Itu pasti cahaya kekuatan sihir asli Ehitorujue. Dari pandangan sekilas, cahaya itu bersinar dalam tampilan keilahiannya. Tapi, itu terus berlanjut tanpa henti seperti pemboman, tawa keras yang mengandung kemarahan dan kegilaan membuat aura ilahi dari cahaya berakhir tanpa hasil.

{Ayo, hentikan perlawananmu yang tak berguna dan bertobat. Sekarang harapan terakhir Anda telah terputus, tidak ada artinya dalam apapun yang Anda lakukan!}

Cahaya membengkak. Retakan pada 'Pesangon Suci' secara bertahap semakin besar.

Tampaknya kebanggaan Ehitorujue sangat terluka karena dilakukan oleh Hajime dan Yue, sampai-sampai dia tidak memberikan pertimbangan yang cermat untuk keadaan tubuh Yue dengan serangannya. Dia pasti berpikir bahwa dia hanya bisa menggunakan 'Regenerasi Otomatis' setelah dia mengambil alih tubuh. Daripada itu, dia lebih penting dalam menciptakan tontonan di mana Hajime terhapus di depan mata Yue tanpa dia tidak dapat melakukan apa pun.

Tampaknya Ehitorujue yakin bahwa masa depan yang tragis seperti itu akan menjadi kenyataan. Hajime yang terluka di seluruh tubuhnya dengan dua kartu asnya, sihir konsep yang digunakan tidak mungkin memiliki kekuatan cadangan lagi, pikirnya. Bahkan para pembebas di mana mereka memiliki tujuh anggota sebelumnya hanya dapat membuat tiga konsep sihir.

Hajime menciptakan dua konsep sihir bahkan bisa dikatakan sebagai keajaiban karena kekuatan perasaannya terhadap Yue.

Untuk alasan itu,

"Ini adalah akhir dari ini, hanya siapa yang mengatakan itu masalahnya ya?"

{Masih bluffi――}

Kata-kata Ehitorujue berhenti di tengah jalan.

Itu karena di balik penghalang, dia melihat sosok Hajime melayang senyum jahat, bibirnya membelah lebar seperti bulan sabit. Meskipun Ehitorujue tidak memiliki tubuh berdaging, namun ekspresi itu membuat tubuhnya merinding.

"Yue."

“… Nn. Serahkan padaku."

Keduanya berada di halaman yang sama. Bahkan tanpa mengetahui sama sekali tentang perincian tentang kartu yang dimiliki Hajime, Yue jelas mengerti apa yang diinginkan Hajime seperti punggung tangannya sendiri. Itu sebabnya, kata yang berlebihan tidak perlu. Dengan ketegasan bahwa ini akan menjadi yang terakhir, Yue meraung kekuatan sihirnya dan menuangkan kekuatan ke 'Pemutusan Suci'.

Partikel logam bertemu di tangan Hajime. Apa yang dia transmutasi adalah satu peluru. Tidak ada yang istimewa di dalamnya sama sekali, itu hanya peluru belaka.

Namun, di sana Hajime menggertakkan giginya. Dan kemudian dengan ih puih ’ia meludahkan sesuatu, keajaiban konsep terakhir yang dijejalkan dan disembunyikannya di salah satu giginya ―― Tolak Semua Keberadaan (Apa Pun dan Segalanya, Hilang Saja)

Konsep sihir yang dianggap hilang bersamaan dengan jebolnya rantai di mana ia terpesona, Hajime entah bagaimana berhasil menggunakan Konvergensi Transmutasi untuk mengamankan sebagian darinya meskipun ia hanya bisa mengumpulkan tentang jumlah jari kelingkingnya, ia kemudian mengolahnya dan meletakkannya di belakang giginya sebelumnya. Itu demi saat ini.

Hajime sendiri terkejut bahwa konsep itu masih ada ketika dia mengumpulkannya bahkan setelah rantai itu berubah menjadi bagian-bagian yang sangat kecil, tetapi tentu saja itu menunjukkan betapa ekstrimnya perasaan hampa yang dia rasakan ketika Yue dibawa pergi. Itu adalah emosi yang sangat dalam.

Sampai akhir, Blade of Blood Pledge dan Bullet of Blood Pledge adalah demi menyelamatkan Yue. Karena itu, sejak awal, pukulan akhir dimaksudkan untuk dilakukan oleh konsep peluru ini, diisi dengan keinginan murni kehancuran. Gigi itu kecil, tetapi tetap memancarkan kehadiran yang pasti, menggunakan transmutasi, peluru itu kemudian dilapisi olehnya.

{Itu-}

"Alasan Aruvheit meninggal bukan karena dia dewa. Dia hanya terseret ke dalam amukan saya ketika saya membentak karena Anda semua meletakkan tangan Anda pada Yue, itu saja. Sesuatu seperti konsep godslaying, tidak mungkin aku bisa membuat sesuatu seperti itu, kan? "

{Kamu, kamu basta――}

Hajime mengoreksi kesalahpahaman yang dimiliki Ehitorujue.

Bahwa apakah itu Ehitorujue, atau apakah itu Aruvheit, Hajime tidak menentang mereka karena mereka adalah 'dewa' yang bertindak secara tiran di dunia ini.

Mereka mendatangkan kemarahan Nagumo Hajime.

Hanya itu yang ada di sana, alasan mengapa Ehitorujue dan komplotannya hancur.

Diinformasikan secara implisit, Ehitorujue kehilangan kata-katanya. Karena dia perhatikan, bahwa untuk Hajime, tidak ada banyak perbedaan antara dia dewa dan monster acak yang menyerang Hajime.

Terlepas dari kesenjangan kekuasaan yang luar biasa di antara mereka, tetapi sikap Hajime terhadap Ehitorujue persis sama seperti bagaimana ia memperlakukan semua lawan yang datang untuk menghancurkannya sampai sekarang. Itu adalah, 'kamu adalah musuh jadi aku akan membunuhmu'. Sungguh tidak ada yang istimewa atau apa pun dalam bagaimana Hajime bertindak melawan dewa ini.

{Jangan, jangan main-main, Anda bajingan-}

Ehitorujue berbicara dengan kata-kata mengoceh. Penghinaan yang dia rasa terlalu hebat, dan bukan hanya itu, konsep yang sekarang ditujukan kepadanya terlalu mengerikan, tujuan hitam yang ingin menghancurkan Hajime sekarang juga tanpa penundaan dan nalurinya yang ingin melarikan diri sekarang sedang berjuang di dalam dirinya. dia.

Keraguan itu menjadi fatal baginya.

"Ini sekakmat, goreng kecil."

Dengan bibir bengkok tanpa rasa takut, Hajime memasukkan peluru yang dia pegang di mulutnya ke pistol derringer, dan kemudian dia menarik pelatuknya tanpa ragu-ragu dengan beberapa kata yang tajam. Peluru Keberadaan Penolakan yang dimuat menjadi flash merah tua yang ditembakkan. Yue membuat penghalang untuk bisa dilalui dengan waktu yang luar biasa, terlepas dari pembombardan cahaya, serangan kehancuran telah memusnahkan apa yang disentuh sejak awal.

Meskipun sudah terlambat, Ehitorujue memilih opsi untuk menghindari yang menunjukkan kegelisahannya tapi …

"Aku perintahkan dengan nama Yue-, 'Jangan bergerak'!"

{Konyol-}

Setelah tubuhnya diambil alih, Yue merasakan aliran kekuatan di dalam tubuh berkali-kali, dia menyaksikan dan mendengarkan hasilnya. Untuk kejeniusan sihir yang dianggap sebagai bagian dari orang terkuat di era yang dilanda perang ketika dia baru berusia sepuluh tahun, tidak ada alasan bahwa dia tidak akan bisa melakukan itu.

Kekuatan sihirnya sudah mencapai bagian paling bawah. Tapi, jadi apa, dia memarahi pikirannya yang pingsan dengan kekuatan kemauannya, dia dengan paksa memutar tubuhnya yang memohon padanya bahwa itu adalah batas dan memeras kekuatan sihir, dia juga mengedarkan kekuatan sihir yang dia konsumsi untuk 'Pesangon Suci' dan mengaktifkan sihir Statement Pernyataan Ilahi.

Tentunya Ehitorujue tidak pernah berpikir bahwa sihirnya sendiri akan digunakan kembali padanya bahkan dalam mimpinya yang paling liar. Dibandingkan dengan Pernyataan Ilahi yang digunakan Ehitorujue, apa yang digunakan Yue agak berkualitas buruk, namun, itu masih menahan target dengan sangat baik.

{Aku-, aku adalah dewa !! Irregulaaaaaar !!!}

Jeritan.

Kilasan merah kehancuran mendekat. Meskipun tidak ada wajah, tapi jelas terlihat. Ehitorujue sekarang menunjukkan ekspresi teror. Adegan yang tidak mungkin, kenyataan yang tidak dapat dipercaya, suara jalannya yang dia yakini, tanpa diragukan lagi, akan berlanjut untuk keabadian runtuh dengan rapuh.

Namun, tidak peduli berapa banyak dia menyangkal kenyataan, tidak peduli seberapa salehnya dia, meskipun dia berteriak betapa absolutnya dia … tanpa emosi, tanpa perasaan, tidak rasional, raungan membunuh yang dibangkitkan oleh monster itu menghancurkan apa saja di dunia ini.

Itulah kenyataannya.

Karena itu,

{――— !!!!!!}

Kilasan merah tua menembus deras cahaya, menghapus jeritan, menghancurkan masa depan yang mengerikan ―― dan menembus dada dewa gila.

Tanpa suara, kilatan merah tua menghilang menuju ruang putih yang jauh.

Semburan cahaya tersebar, Ehitorujue membuntuti tangannya di lubang yang terbuka lebar di dadanya. Dan kemudian, dia mengangkat jeritan tanpa kata-kata sementara tangannya bergerak seolah merobek dadanya, atau mungkin dengan putus asa berusaha untuk mematikan lubang itu, memperlihatkan keadaan yang bahkan membuat siapa pun merasa kasihan padanya.

{aaAA, konyol … hal seperti itu … tidak mungkin}

Meskipun dia membocorkan kata-kata yang menyangkal kenyataan, tubuh cahayanya masih hancur dengan lubang di dadanya sebagai pusat kehancuran.

Dan kemudian, pada akhirnya, dengan satu lagi bisikan "… mustahil", bentuk humanoid ringan yaitu Ehitorujue meleleh ke udara kosong dan menghilang.

Sinar 'Severance Suci' melebur ke udara kosong pada saat yang sama sebelum Yue jatuh lemas dan duduk di tanah secara feminin.

Hajime perlahan menurunkan pistol kecil itu.

Keheningan menyelimuti area itu.

Selain napas Hajime dan Yue yang sedikit kasar, tidak ada suara sama sekali.

Yue dengan sungguh-sungguh mengangkat kelopak matanya yang mencoba untuk menutup bahkan sekarang sambil perlahan melihat ke belakang dari bahunya sambil tersenyum.

Ke arah itu, Hajime juga membalas senyum … pada saat itu,

"Yue-!"

"――"

Suara tidak sabar Hajime terdengar sebagai peringatan.

Untuk itu Yue menahan napas, pada saat yang sama sebuah pekikan aneh yang terdengar tidak terpikirkan datang dari dunia ini bergema.

――AaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!

Pada saat yang sama, dampak kekerasan yang tak terlihat menjadi badai yang menyerang keduanya.

Bahkan tidak dapat menahan Yue dikirim terbang, mengirimnya ke dada Hajime dengan punggungnya kepadanya. Haijme segera melingkarkan tangannya di sekitar Yue dan memutar tubuhnya, menutupinya dari gelombang kejut dengan tubuhnya sendiri.

Suara menggelegar.

Itu adalah suara dari galeri berjenjang Hajime yang setengah terkubur untuk ditumbuk menjadi potongan-potongan kecil. Beruntung dia tidak terdesak oleh tumbukan ke dinding putih kapur, tetapi itu tidak mengubah bahwa gelombang kejut abnormal menghujani dirinya.

Hajime terus menutupi Yue dalam pelukannya sementara dia terpesona seperti daun yang dipermainkan oleh badai bersama dengan puing-puing galeri bertingkat, dia kemudian terpental ke tanah berkali-kali sebelum akhirnya berhenti.

"Guh, gahah, Yue- …"

"… Nnh, Ha, jime …"

Hajime memanggil Yue sambil muntah darah di mana-mana. Yue hanya mendapat sedikit kerusakan karena Hajime melindungi dirinya, tetapi meskipun begitu dia sepertinya terluka sampai-sampai dia tidak bisa bergerak dengan benar.

Keduanya menghubungkan tangan mereka bersama dan entah bagaimana berdiri dengan saling mendukung. Dan kemudian, mereka mengamati sekeliling sambil berkeringat dingin.

"Oi oi, apa-apaan itu …"

"Haa haa … sepertinya … Kawasan Suci itu sendiri, terpengaruh."

Persis seperti kata Yue, di sana-sini retakan memasuki ruang putih, ada juga bintik-bintik yang tampak bengkok seperti jeli, menunjukkan bahwa ruang itu jelas semakin tidak stabil. Di tempat-tempat yang terdistorsi, pemandangan dari dunia yang tidak diketahui, dunia yang akrab, dan pemandangan permukaan diproyeksikan dan menghilang, pemandangan berulang kali diproyeksikan dan menghilang.

Dan kemudian, sumber jeritan aneh dan gelombang kejut yang luar biasa adalah …

“… Sebenarnya, bos terakhir, masih memiliki dua transformasi tersisa … apakah ini seperti itu? Yah, dalam arti tertentu, ini adalah templat yang normal. ”

“… Nn. Dia, sudah, hanya monster … "

Di tempat di mana pandangan Hajime dan Yue diarahkan, dibalut racun hitam berlumpur yang sedang menyembur keluar dari ruang yang terdistorsi, atau mungkin itu menyerap racun, bahkan sekarang hal yang Ehitorujue mengeluarkan suara menjerit aneh.

{uuu, AA, aa –――}

Seolah-olah tertarik oleh erangan yang sangat tidak menyenangkan yang mengusap pikiran pendengarnya dengan cara yang salah, racun berkumpul tanpa henti dari ruang yang terdistorsi di sekitarnya, dari dalam racun mereka dapat melihat sosok yang tampak seperti monster atau rasul. Tapi, semua tokoh itu disedot ke Ehitorujue tanpa menunjukkan perlawanan sama sekali sambil menatap kosong ke udara kosong.

Dan kemudian, ada suara yang lebih tidak menyenangkan bergema. * beki-, gokyu, gucha, boki- * Sama seperti suara tulang dan tulang saling bergesekan, atau seperti daging dan daging yang saling menghancurkan, suara grafik bergema dari dalam racun.

Pada saat yang sama, kata-kata yang terputus-putus menyebar dengan gema.

――Jangan ingin … mati-, tidak mau, untuk … di … e

――Kenapa … eno, ugh … kamu, kata … aku tidak, mengerti … tidak, mau … untuk, mati-

TernEtern, nal …… ly … semuanya …

――Go, d … Aku, jadilah … datanglah, Tuhan, sudah … kamu, t … kenapa …

IsMis … diambil, tidak ….. seperti, saya, adalah …

――O, bey … semuanya … .. hancurkan … sma, sh …

――Cho … ke, kamu … akan … meratapi … gri, ef …

"Jangan, mau … jangan, mau … di, e-

Kata-kata itu adalah obsesi terhadap kehidupan, kebencian yang mendalam terhadap orang lain, pembenaran diri yang kekanak-kanakan, kesombongan diri yang vulgar, hanya ledakan kemarahan yang tidak bisa dimaafkan.

Tapi, apakah itu perasaan tidak ingin mati, atau bahkan perasaan ingin menjadi sendirian dan menghancurkan apa pun dan segalanya … itu adalah sesuatu yang dia benar-benar tidak ingin mengakui bahwa dia merasa jijik dari lubuk hatinya. tapi, Hajime bisa memahami perasaan itu sepenuhnya.

Hatinya berubah di dasar jurang berpikir bahwa orang lain tidak berharga, ia menggaruk tanah untuk bertahan hidup bahkan dengan menghirup darah dan daging. Ketika Yue dicuri, dia mengamuk dengan liar dan bahkan menciptakan konsep yang membawa kehancuran ekstrem dari perasaan kosongnya.

"… Yaitu, kebetulan, jika aku … tidak bisa bertemu Yue dan yang lain … itu—"

Mungkin saya. Bibir Hajime yang akan bergumam yang diblokir oleh jari telunjuk Yue yang ramping.

Dan kemudian, dia diam-diam menggelengkan kepalanya dan dengan lembut menyangkalnya dengan suara berbisik.

“… Hajime berbeda dari itu. … Bahkan hal itu, pasti memiliki orang-orang yang memikirkannya, seseorang yang harus dia jangkau, dan juga seseorang yang menjangkaunya. Hasil dari tidak melihat kembali pada mereka, adalah itu. "

Mata merah tua Yue menyipit dengan lembut.

“… Jalannya, Hajime telah berjalan sampai sekarang. Itu adalah segalanya Hajime. "

Bahkan ketika hatinya berubah, jeritan yang dibangkitkan di dasar jurang mencapai dia. Bahkan ketika mengatakan bahwa masalah dunia ini tidak penting, pada akhirnya, dia menyelamatkan banyak orang. Jalan setapak yang dia lalui seperti itu menghentikan amarah Hajime.

Itu sebabnya, meskipun keduanya mungkin terlihat serupa, tetapi keduanya benar-benar berbeda.

Itulah sebabnya, kata Yue, jangan memandang rendah Hajime saya.

Dia mengatakan itu. Menyampaikan hal itu kepadanya.

"… Jika itu yang dikatakan Yue, maka itu pasti benar."

"… Nn-"

Hajime membuat senyum masam dari berjemur di sentimentalitas di tengah-tengah krisis besar semua tempat ini, dan juga dari dimarahi pada jam yang sangat terlambat ini. Menuju Hajime seperti itu, Yue juga tersenyum lembut.

Bahkan ketika mereka melakukan itu, hal yang adalah Ehitorujue terus memuntahkan emosinya yang egois yang tak tertahankan untuk didengarkan, sebaliknya, jiwanya menyerap racun dan reruntuhan monster dan rasul dengan momentum yang hebat.

Ehitorujue jelas kehilangan kewarasan. Berpikir dari bagaimana ruang menjadi tidak stabil, penyebabnya bukan hanya karena gelombang kejut sebelumnya, jelas penyebabnya adalah dari kelainan Ehitorujue. Dengan kata lain, itu berarti peluru Eksistensi Denial tentu saja telah memberikan kerusakan mematikan pada Ehitorujue.

Meski begitu dia tidak menghilang, dalam penolakannya dia menerima racun dan monster ke dalam dirinya sendiri untuk mengkompensasi keberadaannya yang menghilang, ini jelas keinginan Ehitorujue untuk bertahan hidup dan kekuatan obsesinya untuk kontrol.

Ehitorujue yang bisa menghilang kapan saja hanya bertahan dengan kegigihannya, namun, Hajime dan Yue tidak punya cara untuk memberinya pukulan akhir.

Kekuatan sihir mereka telah mengering, mereka terluka di mana-mana dan bahkan tidak dapat berdiri dengan benar.

Kartu truf yang disiapkan Hajime sudah habis. Hajime tidak bisa melakukan apa-apa selain tersenyum pahit terhadap fakta itu. Sungguh, tingkat kesulitan dunia ini agak terlalu sulit untuk diungkapkan dengan kata fantasi yang penuh dengan mimpi dan harapan.

Tetapi, pada saat itu, racun yang menutupi area di sekitar Ehitorujue pecah dan pecah.

Benda yang adalah Ehitorujue masih diselimuti kabut hitam yang berputar, tetapi sekarang sosok lengkapnya bisa dilihat dengan jelas.

"Itu benar-benar monster ya."

“… Nn. Sebaliknya itu terlihat menyedihkan. "

Kesan keduanya jujur.

Apa ada segumpal daging. Daging, tulang, dan kulit beberapa ras secara serampangan dikombinasikan dengan anggota tubuh yang menonjol keluar dari benjolan daging yang menggeliat. Beberapa tentakel bergelombang, tampak sangat aneh. Sosok itu akan membuat orang kehilangan kewarasan dan merasa ingin muntah hanya karena penampilannya.

Hal itu adalah Ehitorujue yang direduksi menjadi gumpalan daging yang tiba-tiba menjerit.

――GiiaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA – !!!!

Badai segera bertiup dengan hebat. Miasma hitam berputar, gelombang kejut yang tak terlihat yang berpusat pada benjolan daging meniup tanah putih kapur.

Gelombang kejut itu dipancarkan secara radial tanpa arah apa pun, meski begitu ia menyembunyikan suatu kekuatan sampai-sampai bahkan Hajime dan Yue yang sudah terlempar ke jarak yang cukup jauh terpesona.

Hajime dan Yue terpesona saat mengeluarkan suara sedih, bahkan saat itu tangan mereka yang terhubung tidak melepaskan apa pun yang terjadi saat mereka menabrak tanah. Hajime mengangkat bahu dengan putus asa bahkan ketika ekspresinya berubah dari rasa sakit dan dia memberikan instruksi kepada Yue.

"Yue, hisap darahku."

"… -, tapi"

"Tidak apa-apa."

Kata-kata Hajime membuat Yue ragu-ragu. Hajime mengatakan bahwa itu baik-baik saja, tetapi tidak mungkin itu benar. Dia sudah berdarah sampai tingkat satu kakinya sudah berada di dalam kubur, atau bahkan mungkin sudah melampaui itu. Luka di perutnya dan juga luka di kedua kakinya belum dirawat atau apa pun. Hajime telah mengencangkan otot-ototnya dan menahan pendarahannya, tetapi dia dalam kondisi bahwa tidak aneh bagi jantungnya untuk berhenti kapan saja karena terlalu banyak pendarahan.

Dia berpegang teguh pada kesadarannya, dan bahkan sekarang dia sudah menghancurkan pikirannya untuk bertahan hidup, untuk membunuh musuhnya, dia mampu melakukan itu berkat tubuhnya yang keras yang dapat dengan sungguh-sungguh disebut sebagai monster. Meski begitu kondisinya benar-benar di ambang batas. Jika di sini Yue mengisap darahnya, itu mungkin benar-benar menjadi pukulan terakhir baginya.

Di kejauhan, Ehitorujue mengangkat raungan yang mencukur kewarasan sekali lagi. Ruang ganas terdistorsi setiap kali dengan gelombang kejut yang menghancurkan dunia putih kapur. Selain itu, tentakel yang bergelombang juga bisa terlihat berkeliaran mencari mangsa. Pada tingkat ini, jelas mereka akan mati tanpa melakukan apa-apa. Meski begitu, Yue masih ragu, untuk itu Hajime menunjukkan padanya senyum.

Senyum itu, adalah senyum berani dan tak kenal takut yang selalu membuat dada Yue mengencang. Anjingnya telanjang, matanya berkilat-kilat, sekutunya memberikan kepercayaan yang sangat besar pada senyuman itu, dan musuh diberi getaran ngeri oleh senyuman itu, senyum iblis yang menjadikan sang putri vampir sebagai budaknya.

"Bukankah aku sudah memberitahumu? Ini templatnya. Apakah Anda berpikir, bahwa saya tidak melihat situasi seperti ini? "

"Hajime …"

“Memang, semua kartu truf saya habis. Namun, masih ada produk jadi yang disiapkan, lihat? "

Yue sudah tidak punya kata. Aa, sungguh, orang yang aku cintai ini … benar-benar jahat. Perasaan seperti itu berdenyut-denyut keras di dadanya, Yue menghembuskan napas demam dan dia mengangguk cepat.

Dan kemudian, sementara dia merasakan sensasi lengan Hajime yang memeluknya erat, dia meletakkan giginya di lehernya. Darah yang mengalir pulih dari kekuatan sihir Yue hanya sedikit ―― tidak, pada saat berikutnya, denyutan hebat datang. * dokun dokun *, jumlah darah yang sangat sedikit yang biasanya tidak akan melakukan apa pun untuknya sekarang memulihkan Yue dengan momentum yang jauh melebihi efek dari 'Kontrak Sumpah Darah' atau hal lain.

Alasannya adalah satu.

――Anda artifak eksklusif Nagumo Hajime

Darah yang memiliki efek untuk mensublimasikan 'Kontrak Sumpah Darah' Yue dengan beberapa level, untuk membuat keterampilan 'Limit Break' menjadi mungkin, dan kemudian dengan kandungan besi darah yang berlimpah diberikan dengan bahan cheatmate, cairan darah seperti itu mengalir di dalam tubuh Hajime.

Dengan mengasumsikan situasi di mana ia kehilangan semua artefaknya, di mana Yue yang diambil kembali kelelahan, dan selain itu Peluru Keberadaan tidak dapat membunuh lawan, Hajime mempersiapkan dirinya untuk menjadi artefak eksklusif Yue. Persis seperti penamaannya, artefak ini adalah artefak kelas harta karun rahasia yang menghasilkan kekuatan dan pemulihan yang bahkan melampaui air dewa yang terbatas hanya untuk Yue.

"… Nna"

Merasakan kenikmatan yang sangat manis dan membakar dari dalam tubuhnya, Yue tanpa sengaja mengeluarkan desahan berat. Tetapi seolah-olah merasakan pemulihan Yue itu, tentakel yang tak terhitung jumlahnya ditembakkan dengan kabur dari Ehitorujue. Ujung dari tentakel itu tajam, apa yang mereka sentuh pasti akan tertusuk dalam satu serangan.

Yue memisahkan mulutnya dari leher Hajime dan dia mengarahkan salah satu tangannya seperti perisai ke arah tentakel yang mendekat. Segera, ruang di depan matanya berubah.

Tentakel bergegas ke sana.

Namun, semuanya tidak mencapai keduanya. Itu karena ruang terdistorsi menelan segalanya. Tidak, lebih tepatnya tentakelnya dibuang ke ruang lain.

Untuk membangun pertahanan yang andal menggunakan kekuatan sihir kecil, Yue memanfaatkan ruang yang tidak stabil. Yue tidak memiliki kekuatan untuk membuat gerbang menggunakan sihir ruang dari nol yang menutup ruang, dan karenanya, dalam hal ini dia hanya perlu membuat gerbang ke dunia yang berbeda menggunakan ruang yang sudah bergetar. Jika itu hanya memperluas lubang di ruang yang sudah terbuka, maka itu tidak akan menghabiskan banyak kekuatan.

Setelah Yue mengkonfirmasi bahwa penghalang pemecatan ruang telah menunjukkan efek yang dapat diandalkan, dia mengalihkan pandangannya ke Hajime sekali lagi.

Mata Hajime mulai kehilangan fokus sedikit. Seperti yang diharapkan, batasnya datang hanya dengan menghisap sedikit darah barusan. Wajahnya menjadi pucat, bahkan sekarang kesadarannya tampak seperti akan jatuh kapan saja bersama dengan kelopak matanya. Dia berada dalam kondisi yang nyaris tidak melekat pada kesadaran dengan berkonsentrasi pada rasa sakit dari lukanya.

Untuk Yue yang menopang tubuhnya, Hajime berbicara dengannya dengan suara serak, namun kekuatan bisa dirasakan dari suara itu tanpa ada tanda menyerah.

"Yue … kamu bisa, pulihkan aku … sampai tingkat tertentu, kan?"

"… Nn"

"Aku … tidak punya kartu lagi. Tapi … jika ada, tidak ada— ”

"… itu hanya perlu dibuat."

Memahami niat Hajime, Yue memanipulasi ruang sambil melanjutkan kalimatnya. Untuk itu Hajime membuat senyum tipis dan melanjutkan.

"… Hancurkan, pria itu—"

“Konsepnya, akan dibuat sekarang. Tetapi, hanya dengan kekuatan ajaib saya saja, itu masih tidak cukup. "

"Dengan metamorfosis … sihir. Membuat saya–"

"-…subordinasi. Karena ada darah dalam diriku ”

Hajime tersenyum lebar. Rencana ini yang membuatnya bertanya-tanya seberapa jauh dia telah meramalkan, dan kemudian kecerobohan besar di dalamnya, namun dengan keyakinannya yang luar biasa padanya sebagai premis dari rencana sejak awal, membuat Yue tidak bisa mengatakan apa-apa lagi.

"…Bahan?"

"Mataku."

Mematuhi instruksi Hajime, jari-jari ramping Yue diangkat tinggi-tinggi di atas mata kanan Hajime, dan kemudian, jari-jari itu jatuh sekaligus. Sebuah erangan sedikit bocor dari Hajime, tapi Yue tanpa ragu menarik jari-jarinya sementara bibirnya mengencang menjadi garis lurus.

Di telapak tangannya ada kristal putih kebiruan. Batu mata ajaib.

"Yue … permohonan, se."

“… Nn. Serahkan padaku."

Seperti itulah ritus metamorfosis dimulai.

Untuk mendapatkan kekuatan sihir yang diperlukan, Yue mengisap darah Hajime lebih jauh yang semakin melemahkannya. Hajime terlihat sangat lemah sehingga tidak aneh jika detak jantungnya berhenti kapan saja.

Tapi, saat tangan Yue menyentuh dada Hajime, suara detak jantung yang keras bergema seolah-olah sengatan listrik baru saja diterapkan di sana. * dokun, dokun! * Detak jantung berdenyut meningkat dalam kekuatan detik demi detik.

Itu adalah sihir yang mengubah Hajime menjadi vampir seperti Yue. Itu memiliki prinsip yang sama seperti bagaimana Tio mengubah monster lain menjadi bawahannya. Jika manusia lemah dan halus yang berbeda dari monster digunakan, biasanya manusia itu tidak akan keluar dengan aman, belum lagi jika itu adalah sihir metamorfosis yang mengubah ras manusia, kesulitannya adalah tingkat tertinggi.

Dari bagaimana Tio yang merupakan ahli nagaifikasi karakteristik yang berasal dari sihir metamorfosis membutuhkan cambuk budak hitam untuk membantu kesuksesannya, jelaslah untuk melihat betapa sulitnya sihir agung ini. Dan sekarang Yue yang tidak terlalu ahli dalam sihir metamorfosis menggunakan sesuatu seperti itu untuk target manusia tanpa pelatihan sebelumnya.

Yue adalah seorang jenius yang langka, tetapi sihir ini memiliki kemungkinan sukses hanya ada karena targetnya adalah Hajime yang memiliki ketangguhan tidak manusiawi dalam tubuh dan pikiran. Tidak, tentu saja sejak awal Hajime yang mengusulkan metode ini yakin bahwa ini akan berhasil. Itu karena kepercayaannya dari lubuk hatinya terhadap Yue.

Benjolan daging Ehitorujue bisa dirasakan mendekat dengan lumpuh dari jauh. Itu pasti hitungan mundur menuju kematian mereka.

Karena Yue membagi kekuatannya untuk sihir metamorfosis, kendalinya terhadap ruang menjadi longgar dan beberapa tentakel mulai menggerogoti tubuh mereka.

Tetapi, bahkan dalam situasi yang sangat ekstrem ini, pasangannya yang tercinta dengan sempurna merespons dan menyihirnya.

"Yu, e-"

“… Nn. Kemarilah, Hajime. "

Hajime mengekspos gigi taringnya dengan muridnya yang diwarnai merah seperti Yue, dan dia menggigit tengkuk halus Yue yang tampak sangat ramping sehingga terasa seperti akan patah ketika disentuh. Dan kemudian, Hajime mengubah darah menjadi kekuatan menggunakan sifat khusus vampir.

"… Nnaa"

Setiap kali tenggorokan Hajime berbunyi, nafas manis yang manis keluar dari mulut Yue.

Meskipun dia mengerti bahwa kekuatan meninggalkan tubuhnya, dan meskipun dia mengerti bahwa sekarang bukan waktunya untuk itu, “lebih”, namun dia memikirkan sesuatu seperti itu.

Di tengah suara terengah-engah manis bergema, kekuatan sihir Hajime pulih dalam proporsi jumlah darah yang mengalir keluar.

Namun, pikir Yue sambil merasakan ketidaksabaran.

(Tidak cukup…)

Ya, itu tidak cukup. Benar-benar tidak cukup untuk membuat keajaiban konsep apa pun yang terjadi. Dengan sejumlah kekuatan sihir yang bahkan jauh dari cukup untuk pemulihan total Hajime, itu tidak akan cukup untuk membuat konsep untuk menghabisi monster Holy Precincts yang semakin dekat dengan mereka bahkan sekarang.

Batas darah yang mengalir di dalam dirinya akan segera mencapai batasnya. Dia juga memahami jumlah pemulihan Hajime. Kalau terus begini, mereka tidak punya pilihan lain selain menaruh wastafel atau berenang dengan kekuatan sihir mereka yang tidak memadai. Selain itu taruhan itu akan menjadi salah satu dengan aneh yang sangat buruk.

"Tidak apa-apa. Apakah Anda berpikir, bahwa artefak (saya) yang didedikasikan untuk Anda hanya pada tingkat ini? "

Mungkin melihat ketidaksabaran yang ditampilkan di wajahnya, Hajime yang terpisah dari leher Yue mengatakan hal seperti itu sementara dia mencondongkan tubuh ke depan untuk menjarah bibir Yue kali ini. Dan kemudian, "nnu" Bibir Yue yang bocor suara kecil terluka oleh gigi taring Hajime, pada saat yang sama, bibir Hajime sendiri juga terpotong.

Seperti itu, ketika mereka saling berciuman berulang kali, itu datang.

* GOU – !! *

Kekuatan sihir membengkak dengan kekuatan yang luar biasa.

Kekuatan sihir yang seharusnya menjadi langkah dari pengeringan meledak dari Yue dan berputar dalam warna emas. Pada saat yang sama, kekuatan sihir luar biasa yang tak terbayangkan datang dari jumlah pemulihan barusan juga meledak dari Hajime. Dengan keduanya sebagai pusat, semburan kekuatan sihir naik seolah menembus surga, tidak, itu sebenarnya menusuk ruang Daerah Suci dan menusuk ke surga dengan tiupan angin kencang.

Keemasan dan merah tua saling terjerat, seolah-olah mengekspresikan hubungan antara kedua orang itu, mereka bercampur satu sama lain, membentuk keharmonisan total yang berkecamuk hebat.

―― Artefak gaya partikel ‘Sumpah Cabang Terjalin’

Darah Hajime yang berubah menjadi artefak, dan partikel logam yang Yue bawa ke tubuhnya. Partikel logam ini sebenarnya merupakan artefak yang diaktifkan hanya ketika dalam kondisi yang ditentukan. Efek dan kondisi aktivasi artefak ini adalah, dua orang yang telah terikat kontrak darah kemudian dapat mengubah darah menjadi kekuatan dalam reaksi berantai dengan mereka berdua berubah menjadi artefak satu sama lain dan mereka bertukar darah satu sama lain. Efek penguatan akan terus berlanjut sampai mereka berhenti bertukar darah (berciuman).

"… ahn"

Kekuatan bengkak, dan kebahagiaan berbaur dengan kekasihnya, itu menyebabkan Yue mengerang saat tubuhnya bergetar. Hajime juga dalam kondisi yang sama. Putri vampir dalam pelukannya begitu indah tanpa harapan sehingga dia sedikit mengulangi ciuman yang terasa darah.

Bekas bayangan Ehitorujue telah tiba sampai tepat di dekat mereka. Itu memancarkan gelombang kejut yang sangat besar beserta tentakelnya.

――AaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA – !!!!

Menuju itu, Yue membatalkan ruang terdistorsi tanpa mengarahkan matanya ke sana.

Dia melakukan itu karena dia mengerti bahwa hal seperti itu tidak perlu lagi. Untuk menampilkan itu, kekuatan sihir emas dan merah menjulang tinggi seperti dinding pelindung. Dan kemudian, pada saat berikutnya, kekuatan sihir melepaskan gelombang kejut yang luar biasa yang menetralkan semua gelombang kejut dari gumpalan daging. Itu adalah 'Konversi Dampak' oleh Hajime.

Bahkan selama waktu itu, keduanya masih menempel erat satu sama lain.

Sosok monster Holy Precincts yang dibiarkan sendiri, terus terang itu menyedihkan.

Tidak dapat memaafkan itu, Ehitorujue semakin memancarkan suara aneh yang sangat tidak menyenangkan saat melepaskan serangan parah.

While repelling all of those with magic power impact, Hajime and Yue who were accompanied by the tremendous magic power that already swelled up to the degree that it might destroy the white space, slowly separated their lips. The silver bridge hanging down between the two looked really captivating.

The sweet atmosphere of the two already far surpassed the territory of being out of place, however, people who could obstruct them didn’t exist anywhere in this world.

Both of them kept hugging, their hands softly overlapped. Between them there was the magic eye stone that was partly made from god crystal, and the tiny gun that Hajime didn’t let go at all even when they were sent flying.

And then, Hajime’s trump card(commonness) was chanted.

“’Transmute’!”

Right after that, golden and crimson melted into each other, and light so bright as though a sun was created manifested.

That beautiful and powerful radiance made the Ehitorujue monster to writhe and draw back. It was as though it hated that warm light.

The light was converging.

At its other side, there was the figure of Hajime pushing out his hand toward Ehitorujue with fierce eyes that glared sharply. A small gun was clutched in that hand.

The terrible exhaustion was causing the worn-out right hand to tremble all over, unable to fix the aim. That hand was scooped out from below softly and supported by a graceful hand. It was Yue’s hand.

While snuggling close to each other, both of them readied a single small gun. The running sparks were crimson and golden. The sure-kill bullet that would end everything was buzzing, impatiently waiting to be fired.

What was filled into that bullet was unmistakably a concept magic.

――GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-!!!

Ehitorujue madly unleashed its tentacles. It instinctually comprehended the mighty power that was aimed at it.

But, there was no way such random attack could go through the golden and crimson the two were clad in, all of those were easily swept away by the impact of magic power.

Lalu,

“Giving victory to a man with a kiss, that’s really heroine-like huh, Yue.”

“…Nn. Hajime plucking off the victory at the end without fail, is just like a hero.”

Both of them were talking frivolously while aiming the brilliantly shining gun right at the middle of Ehitorujue.

“Well, putting that aside, there is one thing I want to say to that.”

“…Nn-“

For a moment, both of their eyes met. The fearless smile was floating on their respective face.

The spoken words were the concept of the newborn concept, the words that returned the favor toward the repeated calamities that were wretchedly forced on them. And then, surely, these words also represented the feeling of the people that were toyed around by Ehitorujue in the past.

“ “――The Scattered Pains Right Back Toward You(now you really have done it you shitty bastard-)” “

Soundlessly, a streak of light cut through the air.

That stabbed right in the middle of Ehitorujue without the slightest deviation.

Concept magic The Scattered Pains Right Back Toward You――this magic returned all the pain and wounds that the target had given to other people until now.

Just like the holy man that was once pierced by a holy spear on the hill of Golgotha, the thing that was once a god spurted out blood in a large amount from the wound opening. Although, the flowing out blood wasn’t something holy like that holy man, but something muddy black which looked sticky and unpleasant.

While the lump of meat was crumbling, the agglutinated mere shadow of Ehitorujue a beat later was,

――GIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It raised a hair-rising shriek.

And then at the next moment, flesh and blood exploded to everywhere, silver magic power mixed with muddy black miasma climbed to the sky.

That was undoubtedly the scream of the death agony of the mad god. The repeated inhumanity that it had piled up for a few thousand years, or possibly tens of thousands of years were all returned to its own body. Although it had been reduced to a monster without any reasoning, it surely felt the pain of tens of thousands of years within an instant where even the torment of hell would feel lukewarm in comparison.

The flash that contained a shriek within pulverized the space, and it came out to the familiar dark red space at the other side.

Without any doubt, that must be the last scenery of Ehitorujue, the god of this world.

"…"

"…"

Hajime and Yue had no word.

They were merely staring at the last light of Ehitorujue that was vanishing toward the empty space that was gradually getting smaller. The gun their hand was holding couldn’t endure the burden and crumble into pieces.

The palms that weren’t holding anything now naturally held each other, their faces looked at each other. The magic power was already dispersing and the area around the two was quiet. Both of them had used up their stamina and magic power and everything else, they supported each other’s body leaning to one another and embraced the other party closely. And then, they smiled softly.

Perhaps because the creator of the place was gone, the white space began to rumble. The unstable space was gradually getting stormy, here and there breaking down was starting. Hajime ascertained the state of the surrounding and themselves and then he opened his mouth with a bitter expression.

“This is, bad. This doesn’t seem, to be the time, for looking…melancholic.”

“…Nn. Hajime, you can stand?”

“…Chih, my legs…not just that, my whole body, cannot move satisfactorily. Yue, you?”

“…Just sitting…take my all”

Both of them looked at each other and smiled wryly. It appeared that the true pinch only came after they consigned the god to oblivion.

“My bad, Yue. …The truth is, after killing Ehito, I planned, to wait for recover…and then used the particles…for creating gate key but…”

“…Nn. Doesn’t seem we will have that much time. There is, not even a drop of blood left to exchange.”

"Ya. Besides…the particles themselves, are swallowed…by the unstable space, there is none remaining. At the worst case, I expected to use…the bone of the arm, or the leg…to make one-time use artifact…but…”

The crumbling of Holy Precincts was too fast that they wouldn’t make it in time if they wait for recovery, that caused Hajime’s expression to turn sour as though he had bitten a bitter bug. It wasn’t like he hadn’t imagined it, but Ehitorujue’s excessive obstinacy was to the degree that made Hajime had no extra leeway, that he had to pour all his strength to defeat him. Because of that, the composure to spare some recovery medicine, and also the blood for magic power conversion had run out already.

At the very end, Hajime curse inside his heart to himself “I’m an idiot”, however, there was not even a bit of despair in himself.

“To end…after coming this far…is unacceptable. We are going home, even if we need to crawl-“

“…Nn-“

They lent each other their shoulder and advanced bit by bit literally by crawling on the crumbling white world. They were walking slowly without any progress, but there wasn’t even a drop of the color of resignation in their eyes.

Even so, the reality was always callous, the crumbling of the surrounding was getting increasingly intense, approaching to swallow them altogether with their determination. Ahead of Hajime’s gaze, there was a veil of light that appeared unnoticed. That was the exit and entrance of this space.

The crumbling was approaching. Death was sneaking near. They desperately advance toward the veil of light.

But, the veil of light collapsed before their eyes.

“Shit-“

“…Hajime.”

Witnessing the path of their escape vanishing into sands, a curse leaked out spontaneously from Hajime’s mouth. The hand of Yue that was grasping Hajime’s hand clutched tightly to soothe him that was like that.

“…We are blocked from every direction. What’s left, is only…to gamble.”

“…Nn. Leap into, the crumbling space.”

There was already no other choice but that. Just like what Shia and others almost did, Hajime and Yue would also aim for the scenery of the surface that became visible sometimes and leaped right toward the crumbling space itself in a desperate gamble.

But, no matter how it was unthinkable that they would have future by doing that. It was a mad attempt that wouldn’t even be a gamble. If an example had to be made, it was something like someone who was holding a bomb was trying to skillfully use the explosion so they might be able to be sent flying to far away. Even before thinking about being sent flying, there was no assurance that they wouldn’t be turned into small pieces beforehand.

But, even so they didn’t have the slightest intention to give up.

“…Yue.”

“Nn?”

“I love you.”

“Nn-, me too…I love you.”

With a calm condition that was unthinkable to come from people who were in front of a crumbling space, both of them expressed their feeling to each other. At last, the safe spot also became gone. The crack was also entering into the spot where the two were at.

Like that, *creak* an unpleasant sound resounded below them, both of them resolved themselves and they were going to leap into the space where the surface was visible, it was at that moment

{Choa―――! Appearing at a miraculous timiiing, the beautiful warrior, Miledy Raisen-tan☆ Has arrived! The one who is calling for me is you two isn’t ittt? Isn’t ittt?}

Something came out.

“ “…” “

Hajime and Yue’s eyes turned into dot spontaneously.

However, without paying any mind to such pair, the intruder opened her mouth with jetting up tension.

{What’s with thiiiisss, even though I have come with great pain to save you two from something like a piiinchhh, just where is the reactiooonn. Miledy-chan is going to cry here! I’m going to go hics hics, glance glance you knooow?}

“…Annoying.”

“…Nn. This is certainly Miledy.”

The staggering annoyingness finally lets the two to accept the spectacle in front of their eyes as reality. And then when they looked around, it seemed that the crumbling had been held back before they realized it.

“This is…your doing?”

{Fufun, I guess. Something this much is really easy for the liberator Miledy-chaaannn. Although I say that, it won’t last for more than several minutes though☆}

“…By any chance, you can, escape?”

{But of courseee! I came here after tossing away Rabbit-chan and others to the surface already see☆ What’s left is only you two pyon! As expected, me! What an able woman-! Yes, applause applause!}

The smiley mask was sparkling with some kind of mechanism while saying that kind of thing, putting aside how annoying the words were, the two of them were seriously feeling admiration and gratitude to Miledy. But at the same time, Hajime and Yue also became endlessly vexed.

But, Miledy’s next words broke the half-smiling face of the two.

{Hoi, this is the Degraded Arrow of World Crossing, the last one of it. It’s a defective product that is usable only in this kind of unstable space, but it should be enough for escaping. Next, a healing medicine for service! This should recover you to the degree that you can activate the arrow’s ability pyon! After you two drink that quickly gooo from here! Gooo! Leave the rest to Onee-san okaaayyy☆}

“…And you? You aren’t, going to get out with us?”

Glancing at the thrown Degraded Arrow of World Crossing which Yue caught, Hajime threw his question at Miledy. Because from her speech it was as though Miledy was going to stay behind in this crumbling space.

That guess appeared to be correct.

{Yep, I’m staying hereeee. If this kind of codswallop space is left alone, the surface will also get swallowed and cause a chaining crumbling after all. I’m going to straighten this up.}

“…From how, you speak…it’s like you are going to die here.”

Thanks to the healing medicine, Hajime had recovered to a degree that he could indeed activate the artifact, he then asked with a tone that had turned somewhat smoother.

Miledy answered to that question frankly.

{Yep. My, the plan is for my Super Secret☆Magic to guide the crumbling of Holy Precincts and compress it pon pon. The space is on the verge of breaking down, if this body of mine and my soul are used as a medium to magnify my magic power then it will be enough. That’s why, I’ll end here.}

“Self-sacrifice? That doesn’t suit you. Rather than that――”

Hajime whose nerves were rubbed the wrong way by the resigned speech was going to argue vehemently, but then a blonde beautiful girl around fourteen, fifteen years old appeared overlapping the Miledy-golem. It seemed to be the projection of soul, this must be the original appearance of Miledy.

In contrast with her joking around tone, that girl figure of Miledy was putting an extremely satisfied and also gentle expression toward Hajime and Yue.

{This is juuust self-satisfaction. My promise with my comrades, with my important people――’Let’s destroy the evil god and save the world!’ reaalllly, that sounds like a fairy tale and it looks stupid, but we exchanged that promise seriously, I want to fulfill it, that’s all pyon.}

"…"

{At that time, we couldn’t do anything and lost, everyone became scattered, but thinking ‘even so’, we created the great labyrinths…right now, in this time, in this place, is where I’ll use my whole strength for the sake of people, this is exactly the reason that I survive for this long mon.}

Hajime and Yue listened quietly to Miledy’s words that sounded like a monolog. The reason Miledy wanted to do this wasn’t because she wanted to bask in the joy of cheap self-satisfaction, they comprehended that right now in this time, Miledy was going to realize the feeling that she had continued to hold in her heart from so far in the past that they couldn’t even imagine.

Looking at such pair, Miledy narrowed her eyes with even more and more gentleness.

{Thank you, Nagumo Hajime-kun, Yue-chan. For granting our dearest wish. For using our magic correctly.}

“…Nn. Miledy. Your magic is the most useful.”

{Kufufu, naturally! After all it’s me! What I said before was also like that right? ‘As long as you keep being you, you will achieve godslaying without fail’, I said.}

“…’You can just live following your wish. After all, your choice will surely be the best for this world’, you also said that. Was my choice the best for this world?”

{Of course! Presently, after all, that shitty bastard has been blown away until beyond that world, and I am right here! And then this dreg of a life can be used now for the sake of people following my oath. …Finally, I can head to where everyone is in peace.}

Surely if this was a flesh body than glittering things would be overflowing from the corner of Miledy’s eyes. That was just how intense the flood of emotions that Miledy’s words were filled with, which made them thought that.

{Nooow, both of you. Soon it will be the limit for me to hold back the crumbling pyon. You two need to return back to the place of the people waiting for you. I too, will head toward the place where there are people waiting for me.}

The stagnating space was beginning to rumble once more.

Even while staggering, Hajime and Yue stood up somehow thanks to the healing medicine, the two of them activated the Degraded Arrow of World Crossing that was clutched by Yue’s hand while staring back straight at Miledy.

“…Miledy Raisen. My greatest respect to you. Many months and years have elapsed, yet, there is not a single scratch on that strength of will. That determination is the best article under the heaven beyond any doubt. Oscar Orcus. Naiz Guryuen. Mail Meljine. Laus Vaan. Ryuteris Haltina. Vandour Shune. I will never forget, you and your important people.”

“…Nn. There wasn’t a single thing, of the path of the struggles of you all that was pointless. We will impart it to the next generation, without fail.”

{Both of you…wha, what’s with you twoooo. Like that, I, cannot say anything at all! If you said something like that! Come on, this is really the limit! Just get lost already, get lost!}

Her expression looked embarrassed somehow, and yet it also seemed to be almost overwhelmed with emotion. Miledy faced away with a huff and she waved her hand to shoo them off.

The rumbling was getting fiercer and fiercer, the crumbling was beginning to approach once more.

Hajime and Yue displayed a faint smile at Miledy who wouldn’t meet their eyes while advancing to the edge of the crumbling chalk white surface. And then, they nodded at each other.

“Good bye, protector of the world.”

“…Sayonara.”

Saying that the two leaped down toward the crumbling space that looked like an abyss.

Miledy that was left behind sighed “Fuuuu”.

{Protector of the world, is it. Thaaat feels itchy. Saying that at the very end, is just foul. …Should I think of it, like a payback or something.}

While talking to herself, a black whirling sphere was created with her body as the center. While the sphere was sparking with something like black thunder, Miledy quietly lifted her gaze to the center of the black star of calamity.

Before she knew it, there, she could see the figures of her important people that didn’t lose color no matter who many months and years passed.

{Everyone…}

There was no word that came back. Perhaps this was the revolving lantern before one’s death, or just her hallucinating.

But, such thing was inconsequential.

{What, so you all came to pick me up. Ehehe, then, perhaps I should say it. Finally, I guess I can say it!}

The star of calamity was swallowing anything and everything at the surrounding. Other magic like ‘Severance Calamity’ or whatever couldn’t compare with this. It swallowed everything and pulverized them inside, yes, so to speak this was a black hole.

While the golem artifact which was used as the medium was vanishing without a trace, Miledy’s soul yelled with a voice and expression that were the very picture of innocence.

{Everyoneee, I’m homeee――!!}

At the next moment, the white space was soundlessly annihilated along with all light.

Part 2

The silver angels were falling down to the ground one after another like falling star, the dark red world was rumbling unceasingly, above where the sky should be visible originally, reversed other worlds could be seen wobbling dangerously. Those reversed many worlds could be seen starting to crumble from a glance.

The end of the world.

Such words passed through the brain of the people of the allied force. Even though the apostles who wielded furious might had stopped functioning, but they honestly couldn’t feel happy because of the scream that the world raised which they felt.

“Aa, god…”

Someone whispered so.

In front of the collapse of the world, the sword in their hand felt really tiny. Everyone was merely staring at the shaking above worlds in a daze without being able to do anything else.

At that time, a dignified voice resounded. It wasn’t someone like a god that couldn’t be seen or anything. But it was someone who was right on their side, the ‘Goddess of Harvest’ that had struggled through the line of death together with them――the voice of Hatayama Aiko.

{Everyone, there is no need to despair! That person is over there! Right now, even in this moment, he should be fighting that evil god! The apostles falling, the worlds in the sky breaking, they all are the proof of the evil god’s suffering! That’s why-, let’s pray! For the victory of that person! For the victory of mankind-! Now, match your voice! Let’s show our will!}

The battlefield fell as silent as grave.

Aiko’s words weren’t something that came from the speech compilation Hajime gave her. The proof of that could be seen from how she was calling Hajime as ‘that person’ rather than ‘my sword’. It was undoubtedly a yell that came from Aiko’s own heart. Those words displayed Aiko’s will that believed on the safety of Hajime and others, and also of their victory.

The one who responded first was Liliana.

{To victory-!}

The lovely voice which was amplified with artifact echoed on the battlefield.

And then, the one who hailed at that voice with a blood soaked figure yet powerful yell was Gahard.

{To victory-!!}

Continuing after him, Karm, Adol, and Alfrerick yelled.

{To victory-!!!}

In that situation, the people’s heart was connecting to each other naturally.

――To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-! To victory-!

A Loud chorus of victory resounded in the battlefield. It swallowed the rumbling of the space, numbed the ground, and reached to the heaven, the will of ‘human’ swept the darkness and rose up like the light of the sun.

Human, demi-human, human from another world, those classifications were irrelevant, yells for their victory, and then yells of their faith for the people fighting at the heavens, they were all repeated with impossibly beautiful harmony.

Amidst those, one person didn’t join the chorus and stared wholeheartedly to the sky, a black angel. It was Kaori who was looking forward to the return of Hajime and others believing in Miledy. She kept floating midair and continued to stare at the collapsing Holy Precincts as though she could see nothing else.

And, at that time, Kaori’s senses was caught by something.

The place was, around the sky at the collapsed God Mountain.

She returned to her senses in surprise and turned her gaze there. The space about eight kilometers above the God Mountain distorted like jelly, right after that an elliptical hole opened with a pop. It was a distance that normal human couldn’t perceive, the hole itself was also only as big as several people could go through it so nobody other than Kaori noticed it.

Driven by her premonition, Kaori flapped her jet black wings. At the same time, with *hyupo-!* silhouette of people flew out from that hole.

“Aa――!!”

“NuOOOOOO!!”

White and black shadows. Even from afar she understood that those were her comrades’ figures.

“Shia-, Tio!”

Kaori accelerated in one go. For some reason Shia and Tio were falling straight toward the ground without any sign of slowing down. Kaori became a black silver meteor that rushed through the sky.

Midway, Shizuku and others flew out in panic riding their skyboard from the hole Shia and Tio fell off from, but for now Kaori didn’t stop accelerating and rapidly approached the screaming two people.

And then, Kaori splendidly caught the two altogether a few dozen meters near the ground. Looking closer, near the ground there was a shining barrier deployed that seemed to come from Suzu so it really wasn’t that big of a matter.

“Shia, Tio! Welcome back-!”

“Fue, a, Kaori-san! I’m back desu!”

“Thou saved us, Kaori. Also, I’m back.”

Shia and Tio clung at Kaori’s arms midair while sighing in relieve. Kaori flapped her wings and landed gently on the ground, she then gently put down the two on the ground where they sat with a flop.

There, Shizuku, Suzu, Ryutaro, and Kouki landed down from the sky.

“Kaori!”

“Shizuku-chan!”

Shizuku got off the skyboard and leaped toward Kaori. Kaori too caught Shizuku.

“Kaoriiiin! I’m back!”

“Suzu-chan. Welcome back!”

“Yo-, looks like you are also safe huh.”

“Ryutaro-kun too, welcome back.”

Still hugging Shizuku, Kaori then welcomed Suzu and replied to Ryutaro’s words smilingly. And then, she abruptly showed a soft smile at Kaori who was looking a bit awkward.

“Kouki-kun, welcome back.”

“…Yeah, I’m back. Really, sorry, for everything. Truly, sorry. Also…thank you.”

He had attacked Kaori at the devil king castle, because of that Kouki had resolved himself to not receive words of greeting. But now tears were gathering at the corner of his eyes and his head looked down. He was absolutely grateful that Kaori didn’t forsake him just like Shizuku. Of course, he wouldn’t make misunderstanding anymore.

After nodding once at such Kouki, Kaori looked up to the sky. And then, her gaze moved around searching for something. It was obvious who she was searching for.

“Kaori-san…..Hajime-san and Yue-san are not together with us.”

“Shia…that’s”

“Don’t fret, Kaori. We only separated in the middle because it was necessary. Goshujin-sama and also Yue, they will cometh back without fail.”

“Tio…”

Tio called at Kaori who was looking uneasy admonishingly.

After Miledy came for them, Shia and others received Degraded Arrow of World Crossing from her which opened a hole in space and they leaped into it.

Naturally when they heard that Miledy would go to Hajime and Yue right after, everyone said that they would go together with her. Shia, Tio, and Shizuku were especially determined, their blazing eyes told that it was impossible for them to escape ahead.

However, Degraded Arrow of World Crossing was necessary to cross space, there was no spare for them to go to Hajime and Yue’s position. Although there were several arrows that were created because they were failed work, but different from the real thing these degraded versions could only be used once before breaking and on top of that it could only open the hole for a few seconds.

In addition, the size of the hole that could be opened by the arrow was limited. It was unthinkable that they would have the leeway to pass through the hole in turn under a few second in a world that was collapsing with increasing momentum. Thinking that Haijme and Yue would be added for their return home, in the worst case the situation might turn into one where they would need to choose who would escape and who would be left behind.

In the end, Shia and others had to escape first. They were really reluctant though. They could do nothing but understand when they were told that perhaps not all of them could go back if they accompanied Miledy. Besides, “I swear I’ll send Hajime and Yue back without fail” the state of Miledy when she promised that was unusually filled with determination, that was also a factor that pushed their back to escape first.

Even so, there was no way their worry toward Hajime and Yue who were still in the collapsing Holy Precincts could vanish, Shia and Tio also looked up wordlessly to the sky. Shizuku and others were also similarly praying while looking up to the sky.

At the battlefield, the people of the allied force were still resounding their prayer powerfully.

It was unclear how much time passed. It felt like an eternity, but surely not even dozens of minutes had passed.

It was at that time, that happened.

“Ah”

The one who spontaneously raised that voice was Kaori.

Shia and others, and then the allied force too, ahead of their gaze a pillar of light that was a mix of golden and crimson suddenly pierced the space and stabbed at the sky.

That torrent of magic power which couldn’t be expressed enough even with the word tremendous, and then, the undulation of the overwhelming will that was filled in it, caused the war cry of the battlefield to stop unconsciously. Everyone without exception gazed in enchantment at the dichromatic magic power which ascended to the sky in spiraling motion.

“Hajime-san! Yue-san!”

Shia yelled, with a voice that overflowed with joy.

Right after that, the golden and crimson magic power began to converge back like in a playback.

Lalu,

A scream of death agony reverberated in the world. Immediately after, although the volume wasn’t to the degree that tore the eardrum, but, that voice of the end was certainly heard by everyone throughout the world. Without any reason, anyone thought, that it was the blood flowing out from the god.

Before long, a muddy silver light was dispersing toward the empty sky, and silence returned to the world.

What happened now, in the middle of everyone thinking that with their breath caught, the distortion of space covering the sky and the collapsing world of heavens that was visible in it, suddenly, they were all shrinking toward one point. It was as though something was sucking them all, or possibly it was like they were all being compressed.

The next moment, the world of heavens that was gathered into a point scattered.

There was no sound.

There was merely several layers of ripples with a vibrant color like the blue sky, radiating silently. Unnoticed, the rumble(scream) that shook the world stopped, the scared trembling of the ground also stopped.

Ripples were spreading through the world.

Not only the color of the blue sky, the color of the evening or possibly sunrise, the color of the midday sun, the clear color of the moon, the color of vivacious plants, the color of powerful earth, the color of enveloping night, they all laid on top of each other.

The beautiful ripples of seven colors spread to the end of the earth, before long, cracks began to enter the dark red world. That change wasn’t something violent that gave the impression like the crumbling just now, but a gentle change that quietly repainted the world…

“Aa…god”

Someone whispered. That wasn’t a prayer that wished for salvation anymore. But merely something that came from the deep emotion filling the chest.

The world was recovering its color. It was a truly a splendorous scene that should be called as a legend.

The dark red world was shining sparklingly while becoming broken fragments.

The ripples of the sky were gradually weakening in intensity, however, they didn’t vanish, as though watching over the people who were silently shedding tears drops by drops, it became a rainbow aurora drifting in the air.

“Hajime-kun…Yue…”

Amidst those, a voice that leaked out from between the clenched teeth resounded. Kaori clenched her hand so tightly it was bleeding while glaring at the annihilated Holy Precincts.

“Hajime…”

“Nagumo-kun.”

“Shit-, what’s going on-, that idiot-“

“Nagumo-“

Shizuku, Suzu, Ryutaro, Kouki, they gritted their teeth while facing the sky with a grim gaze. Tio too was looking up at the sky with narrowed gaze without averting her eyes even for a moment.

The dark red world vanished.

The sun began to illuminate the world with its natural radiance.

They waited for a long time, but the figure of the people they waited for couldn’t be seen.

Before long, that fact became unbearable and Suzu whispered.

“…This is a lie, right”

Ryutaro gritted his teeth hard.

“Damnit-“

Kouki opened his mouth in a daze.

“Don’t tell me…both of them…really, won’t co――”

And then, when that worst assumption was going to be said half unconsciously…

“It’s alright desu-!!”

Such electrifying loud voice interrupted.

Kouki and others returned to their senses suddenly and moved their gaze there. Over there, was the figure of Shia, her rabbit ears standing straight while she looked straight to the sky.

Shia didn’t avert her eyes from the sky and spoke with a voice that was full of conviction.

“Right now, Hajime-san and Yue-san are together desu. That entangled golden and crimson magic power is the proof. As long as they are together, they are invincible!”

That was why, they would blow away a mere difficult situation like this and came back with a smile. Those words which contained Shia’s immense faith became a power of words that resounded in the world. (TN: Power of words or soul of language. Called kotodama in Japan, some kind of believe that words which were said have some kind of power in them.)

Mysteriously, the heart of the people who were driven by unease became light.

“…..Yep. Betul. With those two together, I cannot imagine any difficult that cannot be smashed through.”

Kaori was in agreement. It wasn’t a voice that was blurred with unease like before, but a powerful voice filled with conviction like Shia.

“Truly. Surely if those two become serious, the word ‘fail’ will be erased from dictionary. Rather, perhaps they art busy flirting right now that they art late to come back.”

Tio jokingly said such thing. And as expected, the grimness in her face was taken away and changed into conviction.

“Isn’t that right. They might, no, they are absolutely flirting right now. This is their emotional reunion after all. Perhaps the matter of us is already thrown to the beyond by them.”

While smiling wryly, Shizuku nodded thinking that it was probably the case. The way they talked also softened the expression of Suzu and others.

Right after that, as though to proof that the words of Shia and others were correct…

“Ah…fufu, see-“

Shia pointed her finger.

Over there was naturally…

Part 3

The rainbow aurora hanging in the sky. A small hole was opened between the veil.

“Uoh”

“…Nn-“

A silhouette of two people glued close to each other flew out from there along with shocked voice. It went without saying, they were Hajime and Yue.

Hajime firmly held Yue tightly with his one arm, Yue too also circled her hands around Hajime’s neck, clinging to him.

Like that, *gou-gou* while feeling the howling of wind on their ear, the two of them began freefalling leaving it to the gravity.

Based on the height it would be thirty seconds until the ground.

Hajime who was falling with his face up saw the mystical aurora they were rapidly distanced from and the distance to the ground that he confirmed by looking across his shoulder and instantly calculated. It seemed that the place they were going to impact was a spot slightly distanced from the allied force.

“Yue, can you fly?”

“…Impossible. Magic power was used up from the arrow’s activation.”

“Well, I guess that’s true. It’s going to be a bit rough, so hold on tight.”

“…Nn. I catch you. I absolutely won’t let go.”

"…"

While experiencing a skydiving without a parachute, Hajime and Yue conversed filled with composure like that. Listening and seeing Yue’s bewitching voice and gaze from very near like this, it couldn’t be helped that Hajime’s words got caught in his throat.

While being exposed against awful wind pressure midair, Hajime ignored his slightly ringing eardrum to the best of his ability and then rolled his stance while still holding Yue. And then, his body became clad in faint crimson magic power. With that he somehow controlled his badly balanced one armed body that was toyed around by the wind.

Although he had drunk recovery medicine, but the healed amount was insignificant. In the first place there was the effect from the depth of the damage he received and the creation of the concept magic that caused his magic power recovery to be slow. There was also a limit to the number of times he could use ‘Air Force’.

While he was controlling his posture, he had to land down on the ground by perfectly dropping his speed. Honestly speaking, the ‘Air Force’ could only be used for ten-odd times more, furthermore, in his current condition that could only use ‘Air Force’ which couldn’t be said to be displaying its complete effect, making a skydiving from altitude of several kilometers to succeed was nothing but a superhuman feat but…

“So the end is me skydiving with Yue huh…it’s not bad.”

Hajime said such thing. Something of this degree wasn’t even a danger.

Hajime gently straightened up his body. Immediately a crimson ripple spread below his feet, it collapsed instantly. However, he was definitely decelerating. He repeated that.

The people of the allied force also noticed them. Crimson ripples were spreading and scattering many times from between the aurora, and silhouette of people was descending like a comet.

At that moment, a deeply emotional voice resounded. The voice of the goddess.

{Thi, this is our, victory-!}

A beat.

――oOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

At the battlefield, no, at the new world the people raised shouts of joy that sounded like an explosion.

As though to reply to that cry of triumph that was like the first cry of a newborn raised by the world, glittering light particles were raining down from the rainbow aurora covering the sky. The light of the sun that recovered its radiance shined, making the world to gleam like a diamond. Surely that was the blessing toward the new world.

Amidst the raining shower of light, Hajime kicked on the last ripple and splendidly reduced his speed, he kept embracing Yue and landed on the ground. Even so, the wounds on his both legs still weren’t healed, using ‘Air Force’ also finally exhausted the magic power for his recovery, so like that he collapsed limply on the ground with his face up.

“Haha-, the finishing is totally messed up.”

Hajime wryly smiled while lying down with his body unable to even twitch. His expression somehow looked refreshed.

Yue who was embraced all that time then straddled Hajime and flopped down on top of him in a tight embrace, and then with a really close distance where it looked like their face could touch each other anytime, Yue shook her small head while staring at Hajime.

“…Not messed up. It was the coolest.”

“Is that so?”

“…Nn. Hajime, thank you. I love you.”

Like that, with bewitching and melting smile, Yue pushed those soft and sweet lips on Hajime’s.

Yue enjoyed to her heart’s content Hajime who could only lie spread-eagled without being able to move, where he could only let Yue do whatever she wanted to him. Although, even if he was able to move, but if this was what Yue wished for then there was no way for Hajime to resist.

Yue’s appearance was still in her adult form. Although the charm that was brought about from the gap between her external appearance and her mental age had gone, now she was emitting sensual pheromone from her whole body, perhaps the brutality of her sex appeal had increased instead with this.

Her adult appearance was most likely due to metamorphosis magic. In that case, perhaps when her magic power recovered she would be able to change between woman and girl appearance freely. It felt like he could see the future where he was toyed around by Yue’s demand. Although, Yue’s heart was also captured by Hajime to the same degree with his heart captured by her though.

The endless kiss erased even the cheering of the allied force, forming a world of only the two of them.

But, a voice that the two couldn’t ignore reverberated into that world.

“Aa――! As expected you two are flirting! You two don’t even care about other people’s feeling! No rather than that, Yue-san is…”

“She is turning aduuuuult! Yue is attacking Hajime-kun with adult charm!’

“Humm. Just as expected. No, the adult appearance art outside expectation though…let see, how about I join too.”

“Uu-, what amazing sensuality…bu, but there is no option for retreating! A maiden can only charge ahead!”

Shia, Kaori, Tio, and Shizuku, those four people. Behind them Suzu, Ryutaro, and Kouki also rushed to here.

With a lively state that was unthinkable for a deeply moving reunion, Shia and others leaped at Hajime. Yue who separated her lips saying “I’m back” got dragged into it, and Hajime became piled with beautiful women and beautiful girls.

And then, hearing the words “welcome back” filled with a flood of emotions from their mouths, Hajime also spoke “I’m back” like Yue.

Diamond dust rained down from the sky, making the world to sparkle. Around him were the important people with teary eyes and joyful smiling like blooming flower. From afar, he could feel many existences that dashed toward here while calling his name.

The warm enveloping him, the welling up senses of accomplishment, and then the content feeling, caused Hajime to smile. It was a mysterious smile where fearlessness and gentleness were entwined tightly…

While that smile of ‘Nagumo Hajime’ caused a tightening to happen inside the girls’ chest, Hajime entrusted his body to a pleasant fatigue and slowly closed his eyes.
