"I stepped inside the Gate of the Mirage Beast, where the Mirage Beast was sealed. There was spelled out a phantom beast and a king thousands of years ago - that is, a record of your struggle once upon a time."

"... for what it once was."

It is also clear from his words that the Phantom Beast and the King fought a long time ago. But it was only recently that I was reincarnated as a champion, whose contents are different from mine today. Therefore, there is no reason to know the details of the struggle.

"The former champion buried his own soul in the body of the phantom beast, disabling him by plunging the power of the phantom beast into saturation, and successfully sealing it."

"I see. I didn't have that idea"

"You sound like some other HR. You don't remember?

"... oh. It was thousands of years ago. The memory is vague."

Regardless of the ambiguity, the memory itself does not exist for me. Kiel does not know that it is the soul of a man named Yuto A who dwells in the body of this king. All I know is Lina and Sasha. But it won't be a situation where we can talk about that, and now let's do it with a lie.

But Kiel raised her mouth tiny as if she had been reading inside of me.

"You don't have to fall in love. If this record is true, there should be no more souls in the body of the king. In other words, it is impossible for you to live like this right now. There is no such thing as a living person without a soul in his body. It's only a guess, but a new soul must have entered the body of the king in some applause"

…………

"I deduce from these things that you are now a total different person equipped with the figure and power of a former king...... no?

Kiel's insight impresses me through surprise. [M] I didn't expect to be seen through this far.

"Well, I don't care who you are at this time. Now burying that monster is a prerequisite."

"... it should have been the true nostalgia of a seven-star angel to destroy the rest with the power of a phantom beast. Are you going to disobey that?

"Oh. I'll do what I want, that's all."

"... well. There's nothing different about fighting together."

But where Kiel joined, unfortunately, the difference in fighting power with the phantom beast would not be so much filled. Then, some sort of measure is still needed.

"Huh, you're such a face that I'm not allowed to just be on my own. But don't worry, I've got a plan to take that monster down."

"Is that true?

"Oh. I took a hint from the record of the struggle between the former champion and the phantom beast. I don't know if it's gonna work."

"... I don't think so, but you want me to do a reproduction of the struggle of the past? Are you going to tell me to embed the rest of my soul in the phantom beast's body?

To my words, Kiel shook his head to the side. [M]

"If I sacrifice you, I won't be able to settle with you. I don't have a problem with that."

"... then what are your measures?

"I've been wondering about phantom beasts for a long time. As you know, the resurrection of the phantom beast required the sacrifice of 1,000 human souls. But I wonder if there are too few sacrifices for a thousand human souls to revive a phantom beast with the power to destroy this world."

I was wondering that, too. His power is far beyond the level of sacrificial souls alone. I actually figured that out by fighting.

"And when I saw the record that the former champion sealed the phantom beast by embedding his own soul in the phantom beast's body, there was finally a point of convergence. Sure, the act seemed to be the deciding factor in sealing the phantom beast, but this time it became an enemy."

And I look at the phantom beast.

"Apparently you've got a guess, too. Yes, the phantom beast converted the soul of the reigning king embedded in his own body as a sacrifice of his own resurrection. There will be no other nutrient more powerful than the soul of the king. That's why a soul dedicated to sacrifice was made for 1,000 human beings."

"... I see"

Kiel's explanation convinced me too. Although it is all speculation, Tsujitsu fits.

"That's the real deal from here. If he gains power from his sacrificial soul and keeps it alive, drag that soul out of his body and you'll be able to cut off his power. But there will be no great influence where one or two human souls have been taken. Then we have one goal."

"Drag out the soul of the former king, or"

"That's right. In my opinion, the King's soul is responsible for more than 99% of his existence. If we can extract that soul, the phantom beast should be greatly powerless and not even able to exist in this world. poke there."

There is no doubt that the sacrificed soul is there because Gabriel's thoughts were sent from within the phantom beast's body. But......

"How do we find the king's soul? It's hard to find the king's soul out of the many souls captured in his body."

The chances of dragging his soul out of his system, for example. That would not be the case. If anyone finds out what we're after, it's over, and you screw it up once, you better think it's stuffing.

"The problem is there, but I have an idea for once. When it comes to the ability to detect signs, I'm more confident than you are. I'll detect the sign of the king's soul and find his place.

"... is that possible?

"I've never done this before, too, but let it be."

confidently, Kiel said. There seems to be some difficulty in detecting the signs of the soul, but I believe Kiel will do it.

"But it's just going to take some time. In the meantime, I want you to draw his attention."

"I didn't know you were going to let the rest go. Fine, I took it. But..."

"I know what you're trying to say. Can you defeat the Phantom Beast by doing just that, huh?

"... oh"

If it was Kiel's measure, it would theoretically be possible to bury the phantom beast away. But ordinary theories don't work for phantom beasts. Even if this measure works, can we really bury the phantom beast?

"I want to make sure of one thing. About the spell you used to save Micah."

"... [Event Conversion]?

"Can't we exercise that spell against phantom beasts?

To Kiel's question, I waved powerless.

"The larger the subject, the longer it takes for the [event conversion] to take effect. If it were that giant, it would take at least an hour for it to work. Before that, it will be lifted with an [Eternal Curse], or we will be interrupted by eating his attack."

"... right"

"Most of all, if the subject was an object. For example -"

One thought descended into my brain, and the shock of lightning struck me ran all over my body. Right, if this way...!!

"What's wrong?

"... thank you, Kiel. Thanks to you, I finally came up with a way to bury him."

"What?"

"But the success of your strategy is a prerequisite. I need a favor from you there."
