Instant Death

After defeating Liza and taking the City of Fighters.

The night mist was summoned by Lisley.

I went to Lisley's room in the castle.

Lisley is not a semi demon, but because she is positioned as the master of the semi demon Eufemia, she seems to be entertained by the semi demons. It was a splendid room. It's probably Liza or the room she was in the neighborhood with.

When she entered Lisley's room, a servant took her to the sofa.

After a while, Lisley came and sat on the couch across the street.

"I'm here because you're offering me the stone of the wise man. What's the deal? If you want me to marry you, I said no."

"Ugh... don't steal that story away... I'm going to say it again when I forget..."

"No matter how many times you say it, I don't think it's gonna change."

"Maybe! If you grow up to look like Chiyoshi-san, you might be an ant!

"I wouldn't say never."

Probably not, but absolutely nothing. The night fog stopped repeating the denial.

So, let's talk about the stone of the wise man.

"You told me to kill someone. I should have said no."

"Um... for now, I'll give you the stone of the wise man. It doesn't matter if I have it."

Lisley took the sage's stone out of her pocket and placed it on the table.

"Are you sure?

"Yes, but just in case. I also want to tell you something as a successor to Rain's will. So please listen to me. So what if that's what you're offering?

"Okay. If you just want to talk, I'll listen."

You can't just follow your promises when you're told to kill me, but I'm willing to just accept it.

In the meantime, the night fog thought that we should listen to the story.

"Rain wants to kill the Temple of Heaven. I'm the twin sister of Heaven Lingyeon."

"Kill my sister. I don't want to do this anymore."

The night fog was a little dazed. I'm not accustomed to being the one to kill my family.

"Rain and Seyla. These two, like Mr. Night Mist, came from different worlds to this world and were considered candidates for wisdom."

"You mean Japanese? From the name."

It seems that there are many Japanese people in this world, so it's not that unusual.

"Yes, Rain and Seyla were given a gift in a class called Twins. You can share your feelings, your magic and other resources with each other. It's convenient, but not as powerful as others."

Sure, there are many great classes like General or Dominator. Compared to that, it doesn't seem to matter much.

"In fact, it seems unlikely that I could be a wise man. But this is the world. It seemed like he had to do something about it, and he had a lot of trouble. Well, I don't really feel that way."

"But isn't Rain immortal, like Origin Blood?

"Um, we're going to talk about that, so can you wait a little longer?

"I'm sorry. I'm just gonna shut up and ask."

"The two of us who managed to be wise men every day discovered the relics of God once enshrined in this land at some ancient ruins."

……

"No, it would be easier if you hit me like that."

Say it all at once.

"Well, there's no point in pulling it. The relic of God turned man into a mortal. In other words, that was what turned Rain into Original Blood. Actually, I used Seira. I think I've decided which one to use. I don't know what happens if I use an artifact I'm not sure about. So let's make ourselves an experimental bench. I think so, but I think it's more likely that my sister will survive in this world if she gains power, so I decided to let her use it."

"Are you talking about artifacts?

"It's a metal box the size of a palm. When Seyla opened the box, something jumped out of it and got tangled up with her. And it adhered to the skin, integrated, and blended into Seyla's body. Soon, Seyla swelled up and couldn't hold on to the shape of a person. Rain stopped and regretted it. But I can't help Seyla even if she's in a hurry. So Rain decided to use the Twins class traits. I wondered if the sharing of feelings could replace Seyla's pain. He said he was waiting for an unimaginable pain. The artifact not only transformed the body, but also humiliated parts of the soul that were related to its roots. Rain couldn't stand it. He let go of his consciousness many times and no longer knew what he was, but at that point Rain already had the homeostasis of immortality. Whether you break your mind or distort it, you'll soon be back to normal. It was a severe pain that seemed to last forever, but it ended suddenly and Raine was alone when she realized it."

After finishing the conversation, Lisley was silent.

"... so? So what do you want me to do? What is the motive for killing? What happened after that?

"No. Saira was missing and could not be reunited. They searched the world, but they couldn't find it."

"What if he's already dead?

"I was convinced he was alive. In fact, the Original Blood power that Rain has acquired seems to be only a fraction of the power that Seyla has acquired, so I wonder if it's more immortal than Rain."

"That's right, I don't even know why I want to kill you...."

In the first place, the night fog is not going to use its power for any reason other than to protect itself.

Because you asked me to, because I was upset, because I'm a bad guy. Killing him for such a reason will make his deterrence weak.

"If I see you, I'll know."

"Even if they say I know... it's like I've never seen Rain before"

I thought it would look like a twin, but I've never seen Rain in the night fog.

When Hanabusa attacked, he was coming in fast from the sky, so I didn't remember seeing his face properly.

"Okay. If we meet, we'll think about the situation."

If Seyla attacked us, it would be a retribution.

I wouldn't dare look for it, but if we met somewhere, we wouldn't be able to help it.

"Saira may be with the wise Van. So if you're looking for the stone of the wise man, you might still meet him."

"If you knew, wouldn't Rain have come to see you?

"Van seems to be controlling all over the world, but he's keeping it a secret from other wise men. That's why I couldn't find any clues to the rest of the world, so I'm only guessing that they're in Van's control."

"You don't even know where it is?

"Yes, I don't know where Van is managed."

"You're the same wise guy, right? I just need to ask."

"Seems to have been appropriately evaded."

"I was wondering if the wise men were close to each other to some extent."

"I don't know much about it, but it's not like it's a single rock."

The wise have areas under their control and are obliged to defeat invaders (aggressors) who appear in the area.

As long as that obligation is fulfilled, there is no need for the wise to cooperate with each other or disclose information.

"Well, I know what Lisley wants to tell you. I've heard the story, and if that's all right, I'll take the sage's stone."

"Yes, I could have ignored Rain's almost irrelevant request... and it felt like I was holding my luggage for a long time, so I'm glad to be able to tell you this."

The night fog took the stone of the wise man.

I felt like I was deceiving you a little bit, and I felt hesitant.

"Well, Lisley told me this story."

"You could have told me right after I heard it... well, if I hadn't met Seyla, it wouldn't matter..."

If Chiyoshi had listened, we might have been able to work together to find it.

But I didn't intend to actively pursue it in the first place. Night fog thought it didn't make much sense to share such information.

"So, what does this plant have to do with that Seira?

"I think so. Is it true that this is the Temple of Heaven?

"Oh, that's not the proper name. But most of them just call me Seyla. I don't even know who called you that. It was already like this when I came here, and everybody called me that."

"What is this sailor?

I don't know. You only know about immortal creatures that erode when you touch them. Well, it's the most embarrassing place on the continent, so it seems that all factions are researching ways to do something about it... but not yet. The one that got caught up with me, he's dead, isn't he? Did you do it?

"Ah, it's a fantastic technique from Tanohura."

The night fog burst out.

It was a martial arts technique that defeated the men earlier, so I stepped on that setting.

"Please don't call me by myself! Too fluffy!

"Hmm... for now, if you stay on board, it could be a promotion of Tanopura-style..."

"Don't spread it! You're going home anyway, and you can't help spreading it around the world!?"

That may be true, but isn't it romantic that our genre will spread to other worlds!

"But what's spreading is a technique that no one can imitate called Takao!

"Tanohura-style... here we go..."

Matsuo seemed to honestly believe in the haze of the night fog.

"Is there a city around here?

"There is, but I don't think it makes much sense where I went."

"Why?"

"Only people infected with Seyla are there. I never had a decent conversation with them."

"There's nowhere else I'd like to go, and I'll go for now. Which way do I go?

"South."

Well then, let's go. What about you?

"No... I'm fine. Wait here for help."

I asked you because you can leave it here, but if you want help, you can leave it alone.

The night fog first headed for the meadow. There is a road ahead, so you should take it south.

When I approached the grasslands, did I know that people were approaching? The grass turned towards the night mist at once.

"This is... disgusting."

Chiyoshi says it stings.

"I wonder what's going on. You're going to have to kill him anyway? Are you sure you're okay wearing your leggings?

"No, no, no! In any case, this can't be prevented with a thin cloth like this!

"Then why don't we kill him to spread the direction of travel?"

"If it weren't for Takao, it would be packed."

If I hadn't had a kid in the first place, I might have died shortly after the alienation.

The night fog killed the grass ahead in a range of about three meters wide. The grass turns very thinly and creates something like a road.

The night mist set foot on a road made of dead grass.

"Wow... the grass on the left and right is about to come this way..."

Chika Chi probably followed me.

Living grass is pointing to the night fog. I don't know how willing the plants are, but the night fog seemed desperate to touch people.

Straight ahead, killing the grass.

After a while, he went out onto a cobbled road. The width is about five meters, so it seems like the grass that will strike you if you go in the middle of the road will be fine.

"If we go to the right, we'll go south."

"I wonder if the city is okay...."

"Seyla, I can't have a decent conversation with someone who's infected, but some people may not be infected."

"Well, anyway, there might be somewhere to rest!

"If you're looking for the Stone of the Wise, you'd better have Lou."

Lou should know if there are any sage stones nearby. Instead of searching for a vast continent in the dark clouds, it might have been better to find Lou first.

Lou, is it Himelon Country? It's the upper-right corner of the continent... but it's not like we're on foot, so we need to do something about the transport. "

"They're fighting in every corner of this vast continent. I can only hope that there are vehicles that can bring each one back and forth."

In some cases, it may be inconvenient, but I can't help worrying about it now.

Optimistic that something could be done, the night fog headed for the city.
