Instant Death

The weapon the boy had in his hand was like a Japanese knife from a single-edged, contradictory and unique flaw.

"If you're familiar with the knife, don't you know what kind of authenticity that thing manages to be round?

"I can handle some knives, but I don't care about the name. Well, I'm pretty sure it's a Japanese sword."

"I thought you were just going to use your peacetime knowledge here, and you're not familiar with it, my ancestor!

"No, my genre is a Tannouran archery! I'm not even into knives! I don't care if it cuts like that! It's a killer knife!

"By the way, where's Vivian's shield?

"Round shield? I've told you many times that our main thing is bowing!

It's a daytime tavern.

The guests are sparse and there is no sign that the boy who pulled out the knife is noticed.

But if you started the fight here, you'd be aware of it.

"It's a suggestion. Would you do it where there are no people?

"I don't know."

The boy told him to throw up and take a seat.

There was no such thing as being witnessed by ordinary people and it seemed as if there was no room for the proposal to be accepted.

"I have no choice. Ask the guests to leave. You can scream, Mr. Tannoura."

"Me? Well, fine. Shit! A dangerous boy has been revealed swinging the blade -! Guys, get down!

Chichika shouted deliberately.

Attention is drawn as soon as possible.

This is not an adventurer's tavern or anything, this is where very ordinary people come.

Naturally, there was no havoc, and those who saw the boy pulling out the blade left the liquor store in a hurry.

"Huh? I heard you were a mass murderer and a very bad man, right?

"It's not good to peddle what people say."

"Really, you say it all the time."

"What are you! What are you going to do with the Apostles fighting each other!

Vivian also took a seat and stood with his shield in his hands.

"What can we do, kill other apostles and we can take away our abilities? Then you'd kill him for now, wouldn't you?

"Liar! I didn't ask you that...... Huh? Did you add it because you had a request? One of these days I was going to explain, Master Marnalilna!

Vivian looked up to heaven.

Apparently, God has told me again.

Seems to be a problem between these two for now, so the night fogs also took their seats and took their distance.

"But that's it, isn't it? If you meant to empower the Apostle to kill me, then killing him would deprive him of his powers or something extra, right? In fact, I'm starting to kill each other myself."

"Just leaking from Vivian feels like a terrible, nasty god..."

Vivian and the boy were across the street.

The boy has an attitude of spare time.

Vivian was confused at first too, but I guess she remembered that she was invincible. He has an invincible grin.

"Let's see what you can do."

"How does Kokosan see this battle?

"Hmm. Well, you're both de amateur rounded out. The center of gravity is not fixed. The kid doesn't seem to know how to handle a knife, and the use of Vivian's shield is really appropriate."

"Is it the knife that moves first? Vivian said it was like self-defense."

"But you got ahead of the adventurer, didn't you?

"Isn't that because Quest found out that you're an enemy who came for royalty?

"Anyway, Vivian, confident in his defensive performance, can do whatever he wants. But it also depends on the ability of the knife. Maybe the Apostle has a special power."

"If you do, you're totally in spectator mode!

It was the boy who moved first, as expected by the night fog.

He walked out to Vivian with his knife unfinished.

"Spike Shield!

When Vivian screams, something pops out of the center of the shield.

Huge, speary thorns stretched straight to the boy.

"Anything already!?"

The boy cut up a knife.

Spike was cut off and flew inside the store.

Looks like you're right to keep your guests away.

"Well, I do have a thorny shield. How about a little cut? It's like he said something like an invincible shield that reflects all attacks."

"I don't think that's gonna work until the spike part."

"I'm a little surprised, but what's wrong with that? That's not enough to take away."

The boy stopped once and looked at Vivian as worthy.

"Hmm! How about a little sharp sword coming out? My shield is an invincible shield to defend against any attack!

"Huh? That's funny. My knife can cut anything. Let's try one."

The boy stood up to take the knife on his shoulder.

"Come! Because I'll pay you back!

The boy stepped in at once.

Instantly pack an intermission and swing the knife down into a hanging.

Was Vivian expecting that, he shook up his shield to take the knife?

The night fog swallowed solitary spit and watched the result.

Catan.

And there was a noise.

Halved shield, but it fell to the floor.

"Huh?"

Vivian gave a dumb voice.

The body deviates diagonally.

The knife cut off the shield and passed from Vivian's left shoulder to his flank.

Vivian's upper body also fell to the floor, scattering blood and organs.

"And the story of contradiction. Well, actually, if you try it, you get results."

"If it's the ability to contradict, which one wins, it must mean the addition or subtraction of God who gave it the ability."

"If you're saying that!? It's catastrophic!

A boy throws a sword wet in blood into the universe. The knife vanished instantly.

"I win. So... oh, I'm out."

The boy was making a shield appear.

Vivian's abilities must have moved on to the boy.

"What is it? When to dispose of Takato Yogiri is an idea."

I guess I'm on track to defeat Vivian.

He seems to be thinking of feeding on the night mist and attracting other apostles as well.

"... even if it's not harmful to me directly, it will be used..."

Depressing if this is to be repeated.

Wouldn't it be better for this boy to stay put here, even if he broke the rules a little bit?

The night fog thought so, but the battle between Vivian and the boy was not over yet.

"I thought you were gonna die!

Vivian, who should have been cut off, got up.

It was back to normal.

The clothes have not been cut off from the bass, but there is no scratch on the skin.

All the blood and spilled contents had disappeared.

"What... No, I see. I got your abilities. Now I know. You're going to live again even if you die."

"Exactly! What was that, invincible defense? I don't mean to say that, but I'm starting to come back to life just in case I die! This is the power of the Shield Advance Lisa Collection!

Even though he was dead once, it wasn't as if he was sad for Vivian.

It makes the shield appear again, full of motivation, etc.

"... Also, it feels good to say Shield for now..."

"Hmm. But this is getting odd. So if you killed him, you could take away his abilities?

"You're definitely getting it right. Shield power shifted to the knife guy because I killed him. But Vivian's back."

"I don't know... are the rules bugging you? Or, obviously, we haven't considered specifications enough."

Vivian said it was an invincible defense, but as you can see, there's a way to do something about it.

And in the case of the apostles, if they kill each other, their immortal resurrection capacity also occurs on the killing side.

So what happens if we continue to kill each other, including the apostle with that immortality?

Apostles with the power of immortality just keep growing with their abilities.

For example, if Vivian kills the boy, now Vivian will have the ability of a knife and the boy will come back to life.

If you keep doing that, there's no limit.

Is it, after all, an advantageous system to kill night fog?

I had doubts about the night fog.

"Shit! That's a mess!

"What do you think? You've found out what you've done can't beat me!

"Oh, unfortunately. I found out more about the power of the shield. Even if you can pierce the defense with my knife, you won't have to cut it because you're going to live again."

"Then go home quietly with your tail shut!

"... no? If this happens, we'll just get back to where we started."

The boy jumped back and took a distance from Vivian.

"Ah!"

Vivian noticed the boy's intentions and wolfed.

"You can kill Takato Yogiri. So, I'll be the only one who can use the immortal body and the most powerful sword!

The boy turned to the night fog.

"Well, I thought so."

In an attempt to gain the power of other apostles, it would be impossible to clean up if immortals continued in this infectious situation.

Then you just have to kill the night mist and leave it to yourself to use your powers.

Simply thinking without greed was supposed to reach that conclusion.

"So don't worry, I can kill you."

The night fog unleashed its power.

The boy fell to the floor in an attempted jump position.

The boy stayed down.

I've been checking on you for a while, but you don't stand up like Vivian.

It was completely dead.

"... I knew Takahiro wouldn't bring back the person he killed..."

"It's natural, or dead people don't come back to life. I think that's common sense."

Death is irreversible.

It's impossible to be alive in the first place.

If it looks like it's come back to life, that's actually just to say it's not dead.

Death for night fog is so, and events contrary to its normal common sense do not occur under the perception of night fog.

If the others have killed, there is room for life, but if the night fog has killed with its power, it is a sure death. There is no way to come back.

"Huh? What happened..."

Vivian was bewildered.

I guess I expected muddy work.

In fact, if the boy hadn't targeted the night fog, there wouldn't have been a battle.

"Didn't God tell you? My power is to kill anybody instantly."

"Oh, that's not such a lame thing to do!

"You think so... usually..."

Chichika said it was stingy.

"Ah. God has told me!... the ability to freely enter and exit a knife that can cut anything has been defeated by Takato Yogiri..."

I don't know where it's coming from, but Vivian was looking to heaven.

"I see. By informing you of what abilities you have tried and lost, your belly will make you think of measures."

"I feel like I'm losing my shield abilities, too?

"Hmm. Well, it's the knife that's dead. It could be such a count."

"Now you know, right? Vivian's invincible power and his power won't prevent me."

"... even so! It's not about having to protect Takato Yogiri!

"Why not?

"Because if they kill me, my powers will be gone! But this power is what we need to regain our kingdom!

Was the roots good, it still didn't seem to be the idea to kill the night fog for not doing anything.

"No, you can leave me alone. I'm not going to get killed."

Apparently the apostle of God knows roughly where the night fog is.

So maybe the fight is inevitable, but I didn't intend to lose.

"But well, don't bother me when I'm in the city at this rate. We talked about staying, but let's get moving."

"Yeah. I was wondering if one of those would ever come again."

Chichika seemed to agree.
