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

Episode One Thousand Six Hundred and ninety-one: God Is Not, Man Is Not Thing

I hear rain.

The rain grains entering through the lattice windows were also bringing cold air into the barn, which was never wide. midnight. I can't help but sleep in the cold. It's big enough to roll on the floor, but the stone barn was just so cold that I didn't want to expand the area where my body touched the floor.

The old cell seems to be largely unthinkable about the health of the imprisoned sinner, etc. An iron lattice surrounds the three sides, only one side, with stone walls covered. Apparently, the slightest light entering through the lattice window of that stone wall is the light of the Demonic Crystal lamp standing outside this chamber. Only a light that is pale and cold illuminates this inn. There was no other light in the house. If there's no one else in prison, there's no guard.

Only Setuna is trapped in this hut.

It's not like there's no freedom in prison. I was free to move my hands and feet, and I could utter words. That means you can cast a spell and summon any summons weapon you want. And as long as you can summon an armed subpoena, it's easy to smash through the walls of the barn and escape.

But Setuna didn't.

I'm sitting in the corner of my cell, watching the darkness as I try to avoid the storm entering.

While I was being taken to this cell, I heard about the person I killed.

It was still just a human being who turned him into a monster and destroyed the residential neighborhood of Sunstrea.

"You killed the mayor's favorite architect named Kevin-Arcs, a man who was wanted for the future long before the mayor became Lord of Sunstrea. Four years ago, he married his colleague Anne, who had one of the happiest families in Sunstrea. '

In the carriage taking Setuna, the woman who explained that to me had the title City Army Governor. His first name is Sylvie-Rencode. Before Sunstrea became independent, he was a knight belonging to the Knights of Izfel in Benoagard and a former subordinate of Shanoa-Wellcool, whom Setuna also knew well, but he didn't tell me any more.

In the carriage, the woman who took the helmet, was a brilliant beauty, whose side made her imagine some sword.

"But as you can see, he suffered from albinism and was eroded, and he had been isolated for six months. Anne said she had quit her job and lived days praying only for his recovery '

"Albinism?

'You don't know? It's a symptom Benoa named that way. Symptoms that have begun to be confirmed by various organisms, including humans, since the Great Destruction two years ago - if you ask so far, you'll see.

When Setuna shook her head sideways, Sylvie looked incredible.

Where the hell have you been the last two years? Whatever city you're in, you must have seen about it. Part of my body whitens, and I look like the one who goes around. '

In response to Silvier's question, Setuna was constrained to respond. The story shows that it is now December of the five hundred and fifth year of the continental calendar, and that two years have actually elapsed since then. In other words, two years ago, "great destruction” probably refers to some sort of disaster that happened just after Setuna left the world. Is the sight of Setuna reaching Sunstrea also the effect of "great destruction”?

When Setuna was in trouble, Silvier told me about albinism. Apparently, Setuna recognized me as just an ignorant public. It seems unimaginably popular from a sword-like side. Though thankful for Setuna for not wanting to touch on the last two years.

I don't want to explain it, like I was going to hell.

Albinism.

Symptoms that have been seen since the “Great Destruction”, from animals such as humans, dogs and cats to Imperial Demons. Named as such because parts of the body change color white. The whitened area, he said, is often oddly transformed and enlarged. They say that if you suffer from albinism, severe pain will strike you and you won't be able to live normally. Besides, the symptoms do not improve and it has been found that cutting the whitened area makes no sense. He said that what once suffered from albinism would never go back to normal, and that there was no way to help.

Silvier said the destination of the albinism is the same monster that Setuna witnessed, and when we get there, we'll have to dispose of it.

'So we are grateful to you too. Thanks to you, the damage caused by the Divine Man was halted to a minimum. "

"Shin Shin?"

"You really don't know anything."

Setuna has no words to return Sylvie's reaction. In fact, I don't know anything, so I had no choice.

"A divine person refers to a human being who is in the final stages of albinism. It was Benoa who named it, and we're just learning from it. '

He didn't tell me why he called me a god man.

However, it turns out that those who suffer from albinism end up being monsters who kill the people around them without sight. It also means that what has happened will have to be called a divine man and crusaded. And Sylvie and the City Army don't have the means to counter the gods, they can only guide evacuations and buy time.

"The divine crusade in Sunstrea is inherently the job of Mayor Marcar."

And Sylvie went proud.

Setuna was surprised by the words, which had come naturally. It was hard to believe that no matter how many marquee mayors were, they could survive fighting such monsters. It's nowhere to survive. Silvier doesn't doubt Mayor Marcar's victory over his divine opponents.

According to the story that followed, the mayor of Sunstrea, Marcal-Talber, was a person who had also served as an orthodox knight of the Knights of Benoagard, and Silvier said it was probably the strength of a real knight that allowed the mayor to crusade the Divine Man.

"Thanks to you for not bothering the mayor. I've been there before, but I appreciate that. But the fact that you entered the country illegally and murdered Kevin-Arcs cannot be dispelled. Therefore, you must stay in prison."

Although Sylvie showed a sympathetic attitude towards Setsuna, it also looked like she had no objection to being imprisoned, and Setsuna had to follow suit.

Escaping the scene was easy, no matter what. If you summon a black spear, that's all you need. You won't have to put Sylvie in your hand, you'll get away with it. Sunstrea will make a scene, but I hope he never gets close again.

Setuna, however, went to jail for a long time.

The more I knew what I had done, the more I felt indescribable.

"Murderers!"

Anne's screaming is still in my ear.

For her, it became clear from Sylville's story that she was more important than work and life.

Kevin-Arks, who suffered from symptoms of albinism and had succeeded in becoming a monster called the Divine Man, could do nothing but kill him. I guess that's something Sylvie herself acknowledged and that Anne-Rhone also understood.

Still, the fact that they killed one of their loved ones is heavier than this for Anne-Rhone. There would have been no other way, and if Setuna hadn't killed him, Mayor Marcar would have put his hands down.

With the feeling of desolation, Setsuna stared into the darkness of the prison.

True darkness, which does not even reach light from outside the lattice window, is spreading in front of you. Badly ventilated, the air is precipitating. Because of it, it looked as if there was gravity in the darkness itself. I even feel like the darkness is heavy and distorted. It would be an illusion of the eye. My brain is making mistakes because I've only seen darkness the whole time.

Midnight.

Shivering and blurring in the cold, the darkness seemed to have moved.

Red burning flames swayed in the darkness.

The flames gradually erode the darkness, scorching Setuna's skin with enthusiasm. When I wondered if my skin was twitchy and sweaty, at that time, all around me was wrapped in red lotus flames.

Hellfire envelops consciousness.
