Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Six Hundred Seventy Eight: In a Cursed World (II)

The investigation team led by Miliu arrived in the forest when the day had climbed to its peak.

The northern side of the forest, which was crystallized up to half way, remains a natural natural tree, which can be grasped by the various squeaks and sounds that pop into the ear that birds and beasts live in. The forest is still alive. I'm not dead.

But the liveliness of breathing in the forest was so insignificant that I could not help but wonder if this forest would eventually die as well.

The world is on its way to death.

I feel such signs.

"Master, one of these days will this whole forest crystallize?

To Elina's simple question, Miliu shook his head. The apprentice, dressed in thick cold-proof clothing, has long hair tied in one behind him. It was like the tail of a horse. Even that rocked, it was pathetic. She was also a popular member of Squad One.

"I don't know. Outreach, it might stop around there."

Returning words that didn't even give me a break was a heart I didn't want to let down Elina.

The phenomenon known as crystallization is now confirmed only after the "Great Destruction”, when a fact-finding team was formed and the fact-finding team began investigating the area around Lyohan. It is a phenomenon in which plants crystallize, as the letter reads, and the crystallized one dies in a clear and beautiful crystal-like state. Lyohan's patron saint said the destruction of the ecosystem was caused by the influence of God's power, which blew away during the "Great Destruction".

So far, a phenomenon that is only confirmed by plants and does not appear to occur in animals such as birds and beasts. But birds, beasts, and humans have a different problem than crystallization, so it's a problem. That is one of the reasons why the people of Lyohan, protected by God, were imprisoned by end-of-life thought and nearly fell into despair.

“The Great Destruction” is not tired of destroying the world alone, but continues to spread malice in the post-destruction world as well.

In the cold enough to freeze your breath, Milius and the others just go forward in the woods.

The investigation team is a group of twenty armed summoners. There's basically nothing like falling into a predicament if you don't even fail to be alert to your surroundings. Even if we encountered a group of Imperial Demons, there was little such as the death. The Imperial Demon is an extremely vicious being, but with as many as twenty armed summoners, even if more than a hundred Imperial Demons were opponents, they are unlikely to lose. Except for the story if the Imperial Demon, who specializes in magic called Lyudys, is the opponent, but Lyudys was not belligerent, and Lyudys rarely leaves the "nest” again.

Even if we can get ahead of ourselves, Lewdies, if we're going to fight a bunch of Lewfubbs, there's no element to lose. And for that reason, the investigative team led by Miliu was constantly equipped with half of the crew calling for summoning armies and not neglecting the surrounding adversaries. As many as ten armed summoners are on alert by their super senses. The Milius have never been in a predicament since their inauguration. That's how good he was, and he wasn't the only one in all seven investigation teams to have a dead body. That's true when it comes to never encountering enemies, but in the end, it's possible to avoid meeting enemies in and of itself, as long as you're always on guard.

Miliu avoided the fight as much as he could.

The Imperial Devil is the natural enemy of mankind. but when it comes to the point of deliberately launching an attack from a human being, the question remains. The Imperial Devil also lives desperately in the Imperial Devil. They are nothing but victims caught up in the Summoning Magic of the Holy King. Of course, we're not going to condone them if they're going to attack us, but if they're not, we can just let them go.

Miliu had made the idea thorough for the armed summoners belonging to his own squad, but he had not spoken out for the other squad's ways. Others have a way of thinking about others. I will not deny the idea of destroying the Imperial Devil. Historically, the humans the Imperial Devil has killed will climb a vast number. That's what countless dead people should be out there. The Imperial Devil is so fierce and vicious. Incompatible with humans. Who can deny it if he is imprisoned by the idea that we have no choice but to destroy it?

"There doesn't seem to be any Imperial Demons around."

One of the crew members, a man armed with a dagger-shaped subpoena, comes to check forward.

"There seems to be something in the destination settlement"

"What? What?

"I didn't know that clearly..."

You can't use it.

"Shh, excuse me"

"Fine. I'll do it."

Speak up to your disciple as he sideways watches as the crew is comforted by another.

"Elina, prepare yourself, too."

"Yes, Master!

Elina began to cast a spell quietly when she responded with a prestigious response. Miliu also follows her and begins chanting spells.

Three spells are needed to activate an armed subpoena. For one thing, dissolving spiritual phrases. By a spell that unleashes the Spirit, it interferes with the world. Next, by means of a spell called a martial arts sentence, a summons object is designated. Wrong this spell will summon a very different weapon. Finally, the sacrament. By spinning up the Summoning Armed and the Sacred Promise of the Operator as a spell, the Ceremony takes shape.

And as the end of the spell, to add a word, it's done.

"Armed Summoning."

The two surgical ceremonies were completed almost simultaneously, and Miliu and Elina were enveloped in light. Explosive light runoff. Tremble the world and open the door to the other world. Then take the crimson machete that emerged by making it seep out of the flash. Loversoul. The only loving machete in the world was firmly tamed in her hands. The five senses become enlarged and even more acute. Reinforcement of the five senses and physical abilities is a benefit from the possession of summoning arms, which can be called a by-product of armed summoning techniques. But that by-product is what counts, and that's why the armed summoner is just a human being but doesn't take a pull against the Imperial Demon.

Blowing cold winds shake the trees, and the footsteps of the small animals and the twists of the birds are projected into the back of the brain as the forest landscape. Turning his consciousness from the north side of the forest to the south, he found that there was a small settlement in the forest that had crystallized and died, and there was something there. It is not an animal. Animals don't live in crystallized forests. Technically, because the crystallized forest is a forest of death and creatures become uninhabitable.

It is therefore not an animal or the like that floats in a crystallized forest.

"There you are."

Miliu then proceeded to walk towards the ruins of the settlement when he ordered the troops to be vigilant.

"The settlement must have been involved in crystallization."

Stepping into the crystallized forest, that was all I got cold. It drifts in a forest crystallized with a chill of a completely different kind from the temperate cold. With about half of the trees crystallized, only the fundamentals had crystallized grass, and the further it went in the back, the worse the crystallization became. At last, all the grass trees that do not find any living parts fill their sights.

"The crystallized trees, at first glance, are beautiful."

"It's like looking at a body and saying it's beautiful."

"Oh, be, I don't mean to..."

"I know."

Neither was Miliu, nor was he going to deny the sentiments of the crew members.

Indeed, fully crystallized trees are, at first glance, beautiful. Clear gemstone-like beauty is too mysterious, and the sights it stands in innumerable lines can even be considered fantastic. But no breath of life can be felt in the crystallized grass, and there is a cold voidness there.

Fully crystallized forests no longer allow organisms to live either, making them the land of death. There were already several such forests around Lyohan alone. Is that a phenomenon that can be seen only around Lyohan, or has it become a phenomenon that can be seen around the world after the “Great Destruction"?

As far as the patron saint is concerned, it seems to be the latter.

What happens if a forest called a forest around the world crystallizes?

"Let's Talk About the State of the World"

I remember the patron saint, who looked like a boy, telling me with a nice look on his face.

"The world is now on its way to slowness and death"

All causes are said to lie in "great destruction”.

The "Great Destruction” was triggered because the gods explored and successfully led the resurrection of the Holy King. The effects of the resurrection of the Holy King became “great destruction”, causing tremendous damage to this Illus Valle.

That's all Saint Miendia Raegnus-Wargrain had.

Even Miendia, within the range known to Miliu, was a man who followed numerous gods and was the most powerful being in this Illus Valle.

"Master"

To Elina's whispering voice, she was drawn back to reality. And then you understand what she's been warning you about, and you glance at the crew. The crew also sometimes had summoning weapons in their hands on each of them, which had already moved on to vigilance.

A settlement, a destination, was visible ahead.

The wooden houses within sight were crystallizing with the woods, and the glow drifted through the settlements as if they were frozen. Grass trees in the settlement have also crystallized, without exception, and those that have not crystallized are inorganic and wild-exposed corpses. I guess not so much time has passed since he died. The corpse was in good condition and did not appear to be corrupt. It's so odd that it doesn't even have a dead odor. The corpse is in good condition to the point of illusion that it may be asleep. But I'm sure he's dead. If I hadn't breathed, my heart wouldn't be moving.

There is just one living person in such a sleeping settlement.

It was a man dressed all over his body, in pitch-black armor, who stood on his back here in the square in the centre of the settlement.

On its back, it looked familiar.
