Episode 201: Into the Battlefield Again

I came back to my grandmother, feeling the Earth's air firmly on my skin.

"Hihich. Are you done saying goodbye to your family? Huh?

Grandma said as if she had seen through my actions. When I got here, I was no longer surprised.

"Then I'll put you back on your original space-time axis. Are you ready?

"Oh. But let me just ask you one last thing. Who the hell are you?

It's not just about this one. When I visited the plum drier before, my grandmother checked to see if I was in possession of the spell [Attribute Capture] and even gave me plum dried to improve my status. The former was a struggle against Raphae, and the latter turned out to be of great help in the struggle against Gabri. As if you knew in advance that I would fight these two. [M]

…………

Grandma leans silently. The next moment, my vision was engulfed by a dazzling flash.

When I painstakingly opened my eyes, there was no sign of your grandmother there, instead one woman floating in the universe wrapped around a divine robe. No way, this is who your grandmother is...!?

"My name is Themis. He who guides the destiny of the world…"

"Who guides destiny...? What did you say?"

"I'll see you again. Ah Kwong Yu..."

"Wait!!"

I reach for my right hand, but I can't reach her. Soon my consciousness went far away.

………

The next time I opened my eyes, I stood on the earth looking like a king. Apparently, he's back on his original space-time axis. This means that right now, right after the phantom beast activates [Destiny Distortion].

On his right hand was the guardian Serena gave him. Without this protection, I would never have remembered myself as a king, and I would have spent my days as a normal person in that world forever. As I thanked Serena, I remembered her patronage.

When I looked up, there was the first appearance of a phantom beast there with a startling look on his face.

"Stupid... that my [fate distortion] doesn't work...!?"

No, my past was definitely twisted once by his spell. Thanks to that old lady, no, and Temis fixing the past, I'm here now.

Who was Themis after all? But now we need to focus more on fighting phantom beasts than on thinking about it. There's no point in coming back to this world if you don't bury him.

"… Fair enough. Do you want to be buried in my own hands that much, even though you have mercy on me? Then I'll do what I want."

Okay, what do we do? The war is still dominated by him. We have to work something out before the batter runs out.

"............"

At that time, someone spoke to my brain in a conversation. Is that Gabriel again?

"...... Ut............"

No, you're not, this is not Gabriel's voice. No way...!?

"Spell [Hellfire]!

A phantom beast activated a spell in the gap where I was distracted. My instinct tells me I can't avoid it in time. I can't avoid a direct hit.

"Spell [stratigraphic flow]!!"

At that time, there was a voice in the rear where someone chanted a spell. At that moment, the surface fluctuated dramatically, and the Phantom Beast's [Hellfire] erupted out of my standing position. What if the voice now...!?

"What are you bluffing about, king?"

A muscular man with white wings on his back descended from the sky and landed next to me. It was Kiel.

"Kiel, why are you..."

Really? After Yuna and Micah's struggle, Kiel said she was going to see how the 'Sanctuary of the Sky' was going. So you didn't take 100,000 damage from the Phantom Beast's [extinct world], or be confined to subspace by my [black vortex of hell]?

"This guy or the phantom beast? That's dumber than I imagined..."

Kiel the boulder also seems to remember the battle when he saw the phantom beast.

'... Nghhhhhhhhhhh. If you think it's someone, it's Kiel. A reliable helper for the king's pinch?

Even then, the phantom beast sends me a reading. This unpleasant laugh, now it's definitely Gabriel.

"... Is that Gabriel's voice"

They're sending Kiel and me a reading at the same time, and Kiel responds.

"This guy surprised me. I don't know how, but your soul seems to have been fed by the Phantom Beast Resurrection, too. It's lamentable that a former Seven Star Angel would fall that far as the same Seven Star Angel."

Say whatever you want. So, what are you doing here? Is it possible that Temei, like you there, will say something about defeating the phantom beast and saving the world?

"Hate, my vessel isn't big enough to take on that much of a mission. But..."

Kiel sees me on the side, then goes on with the words.

"Me and the King of Champions have not settled yet. I'm just saying if they get in my way, I'm in trouble."

I couldn't help but laugh. [M] Kiel is Kiel, even in this situation.

"Nghuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Although the stage will most likely be the afterlife. Good luck at best...... '

So I ran out of ideas from Gabriel. As always, only the mouth is masterful.

"... well. How's the war going, King?

"Honestly, that's not good. I still can't find a way to bury this monster."

"Is the boulder champion in good hands? Then the information I got doesn't have to be wasted."

"... what?

Apparently Kiel has grabbed something in The Sanctuary of Sky. Can it be a trump card to defeat the phantom beast?
