Instant Death

"You, he wants to eat the awkward. Is that what you said?

"Right. I know it sounds delicious, but it's just resistant to eating humans."

"I want you to take care of that feeling! I think that's a very important heart as a human being!

At least, he didn't seem so hungry at all.

"Whatever it is, it's not something I'll try to take away. If you take away your automatic activation skills all the time, you can't control them."

"Huh. That. So what do you want to do with the awkward? I'm not sure what you're up to."

"Purpose…"

Chris thinks.

Hanakawa couldn't believe it. She has no immediate purpose.

- What is it! Trying to kill the awkward without much purpose, etc!

There was no way I could say that.

The opponent is an overwhelming strongman, and for her, Hanakawa is like flying if it blows.

"Oh, excuse me. I'm just a little confused... because I've taken a lot of powerful skills from earlier people at once, or to integrate them, my mind is in a stormy situation."

"Ha. Do you think so?"

"So was it the purpose? My purpose is to make life as easy as possible."

"Well, it's not a big story about the purpose of life."

"It's not about spending your days caricaturally revealing themselves to wealth like a rotten royal nobleman."

"Well, that's what I'm flattered about,"

"I think it would be one happy life if I could make the most of the talent I could have. I've always been good at moving my body, and for the most part, I could just look at it and master it."

"Is that why you were given the skill to take people's skills?"

"I think it's a vocation for me to be an adventurer like that. If you hunt monsters appropriately, you earn income and honor. It couldn't have been easier."

"If that's happiness, shouldn't we have kept doing that?

It was Hanakawa I hope you don't try to get involved with something like yourself in this place.

"But. There is a cap on what is called a person's strength. It was an immediate blow to the head just to be in the right place. According to what I've heard, if you continue your training in craziness to death, even when you reach the upper limit, you can break the limit."

"Oh. Is that a skill in the limit breaking system? It's unusual for some people to have it."

Just like Hanakawa, Takesuke Higashida and Takeshi Fukuhara, who were summoned for the second time, should have had it. With it, we can cross level 99, which is the human race limit.

Even if you can get a gift and grow to level 99, that's one talent, and just reaching this point requires a lot of effort.

It is a point of reach for humans, and there is no further ahead than special humans.

But very rarely, there are those who exceed that limit by desperate effort. It's not impossible to cross level 99.

"But I don't want to make an effort that might end in vain."

"Oh, you don't. Effort."

"I was able to take away my skills just by slashing them there."

"Ha. I see that, though. So you've accomplished your purpose already?

"No. This power has conditions. I'm sure you know that if you don't kill someone named Takato Yogiri, they'll lose you."

The night fog killed one of the marnalilna's and the other was a flower river that I felt was completely over for fleeing, but Chris told me to remind me of the terms and the dots.

Only those who kill the fog at night will have power as apostles, but the others will lose power.

"Yeah, I don't want to lose this power."

"Uh. Awkward doesn't care about power or anything, so I was hoping you'd do it on your own."

From Hanakawa, who has already been deprived of his powers, it really didn't matter.

"You think that within a certain period of time, you will die without anyone challenging Takato Yogiri? There seem to be fewer apostles already, so I guess it's time for me to try. I was hoping to get as much help as I could by then."

"I see. Wouldn't that do something with all that power?

Hanakawa struck a really heartless association.

Because it is a convenient story for Hanakawa to try the mist at night to raise her chronic heart, and if she dies.

- But in that case, would the awkward die too?

You can't defeat night fog in Hanakawa.

If time gives us the condition that all apostles die automatically, it's not like the hope that Hanakawa will survive.

I felt somewhat okay, but one of the marnalilna just escaped.

I may no longer be willing to strike the fogs at night, but the conditions of death are not necessarily gone.

"Yes. I think I've gained the strength to challenge you, but it takes time to settle on me. And I'm starting to want to eat you in the process. So follow me."

"… Yes……"

- Perhaps, but if you settle in, your appetite for the awkward is also amply demonstrated...

It's very bad to be by this woman like this.

Although I'd like to escape somehow, it didn't make sense where I just got out and escaped on this occasion.

Because she has the ability to travel instantly to the side of the Hanakawa.

- In the meantime... we will survive to the point where it is critical...

The current situation is hopeless.

But I don't know if it will always be the same situation.

It has been miraculously helpful. This time there may be a moment when something can be done.

Hanakawa had no choice but to entrust his hopes to an uncertain future.

Joshifumi, emperor and wise man.

A little body doesn't seem to have a lot of power, and neither is words or deeds like the readiness of those who fight.

You look like a chimp there, and if you're a warrior who's gone through quite a fight, you seem to be overwhelmed.

If you were Vivian now, you looked like someone you could care less about.

"I don't know. There's nothing funny or funny about fighting this."

Yoshifumi said that to you when you lowered your men and came forward from yourself.

"I said draw, Yoshifumi."

A woman who was fighting Vivian earlier said dissatisfied.

"If you're going to fight anyway, I don't think you're the one who thinks you're a psycho and you're losing me. Isn't it funny how he can wolf at me without his hands or feet?"

"Isn't that impossible? 'Cause I know this kid, Yoshifumi, is an emperor and a wise man."

Exactly.

No matter how weak he seemed, Vivian didn't intend to take a swing at Yoshifumi.

They are wise men. No matter how weak you look, there's no way you're weak.

We need to assume that we are strong enemies.

"Let's just get this over with. Yes, over."

Yoshifumi didn't do anything, he just said so.

"What? What's over?!?"

Vivian is alive. I didn't take any damage.

"Look under your feet."

Vivian looked honestly under her feet when she was told.

At first, I didn't know what was wrong. I wonder if they just messed with me, but soon I realize my toes are turning gray.

The toe was like a stone.

And that was slowly widening the range.

"I decided to petrify it because if I kill it, it will come back to life. It's a power I've recently acquired. Enjoy yourself."

"This! Chainsaw Shield!

Vivian released her shield.

But that was easily bounced off by my men's women.

I guess Yoshifumi's battle came forward after he decided it was over.

When this happened, it was visible that nothing would work anymore.

"This is the one who petrified the tavern, right? Didn't you do it in an instant then?

"Sora meh. That's what I did. I didn't mean."

"Huh? Could this be the place where I watch you get stoned all the time!?"

"Can't you?

"I don't mean no... boring? So, you came all the way here and it's to stone the princess to do it?

"Mmm. That's what they say, and you're starting to feel too pumpy about what you're doing. But then... I've come all this way and there's nothing else I can do. At best, we'll get this guy. Thank you."

"No, if you don't want to, let's go home."

"Oh yeah! You're here with the other royals, aren't you? What happened to them?

I said, "That's got to do with you!

Vivian was trying to see if she could get a shield that could release the petrification.

But a shield with the ability to recover couldn't stop the petrification.

"I was wondering if I could treat you like a princess."

"Yes! Your brother will come later! And Gail the Heavenly Swordsman! What two things are you!

I don't know if such a lie makes sense.

But Vivian exclaimed if he could survive at all.

"But oh. I'm sure you've come all the way out here looking for a world sword. What happens with a few more people?

"Oh, that! I'm not telling you!

"Well, that's true. If you have a wife, I'd expect... No. What happened to the world sword?

I don't know if it's a world sword, but the sword that was rusty and worn out was thrown off by Vivian.

So it should be falling nearby, but not within sight of Vivian.

"Oh, come on, I don't have Ray and Sigueto?

"Ah?"

Yoshifumi skewed his face in doubt, and the next moment, he laughed so that he could play it.

"Gu Ha Ha! They betrayed me!

"Huh? Aren't you shackling Ray?

"No? I just thought it might be interesting if you keep me company."

"Hey! I trusted you with nothing!?"

"I don't trust you. I just thought it would be funny if I did something."

"Funny..."

"If you want to betray me, you can do whatever you want."

"You know the power of Yoshifumi, but you can't betray him. They don't know anything."

"But you ran off with a sword, you mean that was real?

"But what about that?

"You have something in your prophecy. I think he got away with it because he could do something about it."

That's what Vivian regretted hearing.

After all, that might have been the means to defeat Yoshifumi, but he threw it away without much thought.

"Lena. Can we go after those guys?

"I can't, 'cause I haven't seen you run away"

"Then I'll have to go after it myself, what's wrong with it"

Yoshifumi and the others had not seen Vivian any more.

You haven't even forgotten, but I guess the interest has completely shifted to the traitor's whereabouts.

"Hey."

Vivian spoke for herself. Petrification had progressed to the knee area.

"Oh. Do you have company? I hope you're here to help."

With the attitude that Vivian and others didn't care, Yoshifumi and the others were about to leave this room.

"Wait!

"Oh!? Are you going to say something unusual like help?

"It's a deal! If we're going to cancel the petrification, I'll tell you where they're going!

"Heh? That's getting a little funny."

It would certainly be an unusual rhetoric.

He's killing his parents and begging for his life to the person who took the country.

But if you get stoned here, everything will be over.

Now Vivian is the last survivor of the royal family. I couldn't have died no matter what.

"I have the ability to do what I look for. I've come this far because I've used that ability. So you can chase the world sword wherever it goes!

"Hmm? That sounds interesting."

Yoshifumi rings his fingers.

Then the petrification, which was progressing all the way around the thighs, stopped and the polo and the stone pieces collapsed. Apparently, the petrification was progressing from the surface.

"Yoshifumi. How can you trust a guy like this?

"That's not why I trust you. If you want to do something, you can do it. If that's funny, I'll be happy."

"I'll tell you what, come on. Yoshifumi is stronger than me, so it's no use trying to do anything. Because it's payback and you just die. If you want to live longer, don't do anything extra."

My man's woman stabs the nail.

Of course, I do not intend to take action against Yoshifumi right now.

That will be after you have the world sword again.

- But. This guy's full of gaps!

Yoshifumi is arrogant and confident.

That's the overwhelming complacency that your people will betray all of them, but eventually they can do whatever they want on their own.

That's why I don't imitate small things like I'm alert. I guess I can't forgive myself for doing such a blame.

So if we're acting together, we have a chance at whatever it takes.

Vivian said yes, to herself.
