I also had thoughts. How much power do you have?

I've always wanted to figure that out from the story of 'defeated the Dragon God' that I told and made him listen to. And at the same time, I had the selfish feeling that I didn't want to get my hands dirty as much as I could.

But... it's only about "I wish I could."

"If you say so, as far as I'm concerned, we'll have to fight."

Let's meet your expectations.

My 500 years is not just something that I spent without, or that I've been deceived into living.

Let me prove here that you won this position by force if you kept fighting.

"... are they all okay with powerlessness?

"I don't care if you kill me or not"

"Bye."

At that moment, I take out my sword, which is my weapon.

The name "Ritual Sword Ginia Linnealis" was given to "Don't forget I was me."

The surrounding magic begins to gather in the red rusty looking sword, and the white translucent blade covers the entire sword.

"There's no way to tarnish the sanctuary, so I'll give you a little out of hand"

At the next moment, a blue-haired man with me until earlier waves down a great sword bigger than my body.

Cut it out. Hate me. The man who exchanged swords most often is the man at the extreme of that path.

A slow blow incomparable to Shun's sole makes him crawl lightly into his opponent's sword, twisting himself gently.

"Grrr... what the fuck"

"... you're sturdy enough. Or is it protective?

As if suddenly his physical freedom was no longer advantageous, he glanced back slowly at the big man and turned to the man who was staring at him as he stood in front of Caivon.

As you keep an eye on this sword, is it wise to see that you have been cut off from the identity of the earlier attack?

"... apparently, you were the one who shouldn't turn to the enemy the most"

"What about that? Get away from that person, now."

"Oh, let's not! You can't kill Kai! I'll take it!

I can hear the words of an out of place tone from behind.

And now I remember that Caivon is on the verge of falling into that woman's hands.

... wrong first hand. It should have been best to disable Masato first.

I am more capable of crisis detection than people because of my position.

On this occasion, I prioritized the person who was most dangerous to me.

That woman is too incompetent. That's probably not even the art of fighting properly.

That's why I dropped my priorities.

"Garm, if your body doesn't move, back off for once. Next to Master Misato."

"Chip... I'll make it easy for you"

To a cursory moving man, he unleashes his magic guide in a no-look.

Running on the ground is ultra-fine thunder. I let my sword wrap me up earlier, and I let my opponent pass on his sword and mahi my body muscles, and now I fly it directly to my feet.

But - that breaks down along the way.

"Just in case, I let the magic of obstruction loose around me. It should be invisible enough to prevent it."

"That's a lot better prepared. Surprisingly, I didn't know there was someone in the half elf who excelled so far in both art and sword."

"I am so honored to compliment you - I did not throw it away inside either, that the Virgin would recognize me as Dahlia"

Increase the level of vigilance. I didn't know you noticed who I was when I said that I was wearing a hood once at the Cinderella Inn.

"... whomever, whatever. Let me interrogate you after the battle."

"It's no use expecting me to stay here after the battle."

Running out for a breath, swinging to cut off the other leg.

Red hair flies away momentarily late, ripping Hazel's leg armor open, and a squeaky voice sounds.

"... I didn't know the Virgin was a swordsman"

"No, I'm a magician. And -"

Fortunately, this is the sanctuary.

My strength varies greatly depending on the environment. The way you fight is more restricted than you can blow this place away with your magic guidance, but when there are so many magic streams running through the earth... my consciousness is no longer synonymous with being stuck around this entire perimeter.

Enough time to buy. I'm not used to fighting with multitasking, so far it's been a rattling, disgruntled battle...... now you're safe.

"Huh!? What, what's going on with this!? My eyes suddenly stopped opening, help me, Hazel, Garm!

"Huh!? What did you do to Master Misato!?

"Well, what is it?

If the magic guide of this place is disturbed, only send the magic guide directly into the interior of this continent and directly into the target.

It's a dangerous task like putting even wire through a vein...... hatred, because this is still the Virgin.

"I'm not always wielding that power across the board. Because it interferes with everyday life. Is it… the eye,"

Where is the power of Masato's charm activated in the trigger?

The most likely one is the demon-eyed kind. If I let my eyes close, I would be stopped, and that's all I was after as I showed this swordsman how to fight. And apparently...

"Sounds like you got it right. Now that I've done my part, I'll take care of the rest."

"I was going to leave you to the end."

It's a player change. Again, I'm not fit for action. Because I'm a guard no matter where I go.

Give up the battle settlement to him, who rises slowly, and I take the stand of silence again.

"Well... sure, Hazel, it doesn't seem like you have a choice to stay here. Sorry, I can't add or subtract."

Angry caged words echo around. Chills crawling through your spine.

I suppose so. Caivon, you've been doing that for a long time. It's terribly self-righteous, selfish, and self-righteous.

There is no way that you can be considerably inhibited from your actions and remain calm.

And to make matters worse... 'There is no Lue and Reis in this place right now'.

I mean, now he's in a state where no brakes really exist anymore.

"Step on the tiger's tail. Some people describe it as stepping on the tail of a dragon, and even worse, it touches the dragon's scales."

Kaivon, waving his body up or down, speaks out in an unchallenged voice.

Oh, this is bad. It's his sole when it really gets butchy.

"Well, a man of faith would also say 'touched the wrath of God'. But - there are worse rhetoric in this world. Let me tell you something."

I don't pull out my sword. As always, it is bracketed on my back while stuck in my sheath.

However, I feel the pulse of an uninterrupted force from a fist I just gripped.

And at the next moment, the struggle to rise from his feet is colourful and hides his figure for a moment.

"I'm confused." - "I'm confused."

Moments, the air trembles to pierce your whole body, unconsciously blocking your ears with your hands.

Fear, despair, anxiety. My body trembles violently to be frightened by something invisible.

"Hmm! No way Dragonia...... No, Demon Race!?

"What demon!? What do you mean, I can't see! Let me see it!

"... Misato, now keep your mouth shut... and be ready to run away"

It's been a long time since I've seen that look of him. And the next moment, the tympanic membrane of the ear that should have been blocked sounds so loud that it loses function.

The ground had fallen, and if you noticed, Hazel was pressed against the far other wall of the temple with her neck grabbed.

Hazel lowered her neck sloppily because she had already been cut off.

And cast his body toward the Masats, who are about to leave the temple behind.

At that moment, I felt the activation of some sort of technique only for a moment, but even it all came together, changing the shape of the entrance to the temple, the forest outside, and the mountains visible at the end of the scenery and blew it away.

... changing the natural scenery in one blow? That much without a sword?

... I'm so glad Shun is alive. After all, I was not wrong.

Never, never been a hostile and good opponent.

That's...

"Caivon! What are you going to do with killing them all!?

"No, they're all sure to live with a bug breath. That's the kind of power I have."

No way, do you even have a new ability?

I see you've finally come here to understand why you don't store your sword.

While equipped, you can gain sword abilities. And unlike games, as long as you're equipped, you don't have to use anything else to benefit from it, he said.

Well...... I know there are other bigger reasons for this one only.

"... you're the only one who can interrogate me more than all of them are gone."

And then we walk over to Himology, a man who didn't have to be caught in a blow like the current natural disaster.

Come on, let me tell you everything. Before Caivon's majesty turns to you.

Lucky, I can say that the battle took place here only if it was for my convenience.

How far can my 'body now', which has regained its freedom thanks to Dahlia, be empowered?

I wonder if just being able to confirm that would be a great achievement.

"Dahlia, look how Mr. Kouren is doing. I'm making up for my physical resilience, but I don't know why or how to recover."

I move to do what I have to do now before I think deeply about it.

The man with Dahlia's sword, walks out in front of Himology, and Dahlia turns to Mr. Kouren so he can take turns.

"I get it... okay. Don't let him get away with it, never."

"Oh, do you want me to cut off even one of your legs"

"Hih! Stop... yah... aah!

Cut your left leg off your knee. If it were Earth, it would even be a serious illness that would dictate the rest of your life.

The despair and fear easily break the heart of the hippocampus and immediately freeze the wound with sorcery.

Good thing there's restorative magic in this world. Fortunately, there are many excellent operators in this place.

"Hi-ha-ha... stop... help..."

"If you don't want to die, tell me everything. You already understand, but I'll kill you, no one hesitates."

"Ha! I'll do anything, anything! So, so!!!!"

From this attitude, it doesn't look like he was fascinated and manipulated by Masato.

Then again, there was a back to the original interaction with Selew, he said.

... that is, the person who summoned Masato had an increased likelihood of being associated with Selew.

"You don't have to talk about it now. I'm not from this territory. Talk to Akatsuki and the others later."

You no longer have the strength to escape, but you can no longer physically move, releasing the hippo and heading to Dahlia.

Could it be an analysis, reaching out to Mr. Kouren and somehow covering her body with green light?

However, both the person undergoing treatment and the person applying it had a very painful look on their face.

"... are you feeling bad"

"... Caivon, your power is what activates the healing power of the body, right?

"Oh. Increase your ability to self-heal, if you say it game-style, it's Regene's effect"

"... you know what the exact rate of recovery is?

I'll tell Dahlia how it works. Then...

"... It's hard to say, I guess, it's too late. I didn't have any more left, I can't believe Kouren had the ability to self-heal. If the number I just asked you is true, the moment you stop it… the spill of life begins"

That was a more brutal word than a life sentence.

"This power is something I can temporarily lose and activate on others."

"... I guess. This ridiculous power, can you give it to someone else?"

"... are you going to tell me to lose this power forever?

"... no, but lend me some more. At least until you regain consciousness."

Then only a little time passed, handing over the hippogi to the person who came, and fortunately Mr. Akatsuki arrived without taking care of it thanks to Lue's treatment.

"... how is your mother, Lord Dahlia?"

"It's a state where only life is stopped. However, it is not possible to analyze the ingredients nested in the body. Mr. Akatsuki can't do it, if it's the same Jakou species."

"I'll try"

She takes the incense-like tools out of her nostrils and puts in her own body hair and powder.

And finally, he leaned on his lips as if he were going to even mouth it, and began to burn the fire.

A perfume-like, demonic scent can get around you.

"Caivon, it's a little poisonous for you, the man. You'd better get away from me a little bit."

Stepping back, Dahlia activates something, wrapped in the feeling of being covered by an invisible wall.

And as I watched Mr. Kouren for a few minutes, I was able to confirm that his eyelids moved faintly.

At that moment, it was Mucha who had been beside her long before anyone else.

"Ba-chan! Are you awake?

No one blames her for the amount of voice that would be a little harsh on a sick person, just quietly Dahlia pulls her to her side.

"... I feel strange. I can't believe I'm not supposed to be alive anymore, but I can move my body like this"

"Mother... is that right, I'm still..."

Pale, Mr. Kouren begins to talk as if he understood his current situation.

"Dar. Is this your power? I don't have any more lives left, I know it better myself. Still, I can't believe it gives you enough life to move like this... you're in danger."

"No, this is not my power. It's the power of Caivon... it's just..."

That this power is limited. And tell her that she can't keep using it for her.

Probably because I've already accepted my own death. Mr. Kouren quietly says, 'I'm sorry I made you impossible,' and he just speaks to me of his labor. But...

"Ha, please, Lord Caivon! Give that power to your mother... give it to your mother..."

Mr. Akatsuki, who I thought had accepted as well as Mr. Kouren, follows me here.

He asked me to keep my mother alive, to help her keep escaping the fate of death.

Maybe that's a natural reaction as a daughter. No, maybe not naturally.

If you are a person with experience of losing a flesh parent, many people should be able to understand that feeling.

I didn't leak that, either, just like that. But......

"Akatsuki. I'm not interested in staying alive. I've lived enough. I have embraced this power and lived beyond the limits of the species as well. It's time to take over this role, as it should be."

"But......! This is how we exchange words..."

"... apparently, my weakened power has shifted my sealed base. If I can't let you take over anymore, I won't be able to benefit from it. Sooner or later, I was dead."

Mr. Kouren teaches his daughter to accept her death pale everywhere and in the same way.

Neither me nor Dahlia kept their mouths shut at that appearance, and even Hamu watched quietly.

"Akatsuki. There's someone moving under the water in the Republic right now. You must have noticed that the destruction of the seal was beginning. We've never tried to have an intimate relationship with another territory, but that's what's making us active here. Okay? You can't trust me. Now just focus on protecting ourselves."

"So… do we shut our mouths again and tell them to just be patient when most of them cool down"

What kind of history was there? What was the history? Though I cannot know the meaning of their words. However, Mr. Akatsuki seemed angry that he was going to repeat his hard past again.

"... no. Fortunately, what Dar is up to now. Hey, isn't that right?

"Oh, don't worry. It won't be long. Now that the storm is coming, I want you to stay still in the house for a little while. That's all I'm talking about."

But it's nothing. It'll be over soon, so just be patient for a moment, and the two of you say in a light condition that made the size of the matter slightly smaller.

There, I could see absolute confidence in Dahlia.

"So, huh? I'm gone, and you have to endure it. Now that you have your own daughter, you have to hold on."

I didn't hear back. However, Akatsuki stepped away from her mother and - bowed her head here.

That's a move that can be taken as' sorry ',' stop me 'or' please '.

It's like leaving the last choice to me. I don't know what to do.

"Kai. Please stop the healing. I pass away. But I'll give you one last piece of advice."

She talks to clear her troubles. And just shut up and listen to her words, which will probably be the last.

"That power is not good for people. That's too much power that could get rid of you any day. It doesn't have to be right now, but someday... throw it away."

"... Hate, I'm not letting you go when you think you need me. I just... I know very well that this is too much power."

"... yes. Yeah, that's fine. I can't believe I pushed my thoughts on you."

Even though it may be the last word, I still return words to push my greed through.

However, she admits her thoughts as if she were saying, 'That's okay.'

... Oh, that's what Dahlia admires. Mr. Akatsuki is going to be just a daughter.

As I say this is all over now, Mr. Kouren slowly closes his open eyes.

Red eyes. Crimson beautiful eyes hide, just like Mr. Akatsuki and Miss Alicia.

And - I quietly unlocked the [Life Extreme Enhancement] I was giving her.

"... have a good night's sleep, Kouren. My first friend."

"Mother... I still have so much to tell you..."

"... even in just two days, Hahabha-chan has greatly appreciated me. Hahaba - hold fast to your teachings..."

The three of them say their thoughts.

There, I felt like it was a mistake to pinch my mouth, just to quietly follow the scene.

"... is that right, has your wife been hidden"

"They say the cause is the spirit of the Jakou species, the magic incense that disturbs the magic. It seems that where the body was originally weak, further stabilisation of the seal overlapped, and there more..."

"… our life expectancy is 300 years. Your mother lived long enough."

I was visiting a clinic in the capital one step earlier than the Dahlia and the others.

The purpose is to meet Miss Alicia. Fortunately, the symptoms were milder than Mr. Akatsuki's.

I came quietly to tell my granddaughter, her granddaughter, the end of the story.

Unexpectedly, Miss Alicia quietly receives death.

In a way, she also tells her that I was the last one to pull the trigger of death, but still just quietly so she can take it all.

"I was lucky. I'm sure if it weren't for Mr. Boom, I might have followed the same path as your mother. There's no doubt that the capital was more cracked than Himology was a complete enemy."

"... I guess so. But if I'm more vigilant when I say it..."

"Mr. Boom, that shouldn't happen. That's something you shouldn't think about. If I were to say that, if I had managed to do something about the hippo back in the day, if my mother had inflicted heavier punishment on the hippo, right? I don't have any chili. So now, just think about the way you've been headed, thanks to me."

I couldn't say anything more about her desperate to forgive me, even though I put her on the floor, as if this one were more serious.

... If I can stay in serious shape, I'm going crazy about this one, too.

So, just for a moment, I know I'm being careless right now.

"... then don't look like a better woman than your mother or grandmother"

"Yeah, I guess so. What do you say, Mr. Boom, I'm weak right now, and there's nobody here. I'm laying futons, and I can say I'm already in a good mood, right?

That was just a little bit of a joke.
