Kuro no Maou

The Cost of Episode 204: The Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)

Larspun's burning iron fist crushes every big shield of rock, blowing Fiona's body to the other side.

Lily confirmed at the edge of her sight that Chrono had taken Fiona's body dancing through the universe.

Makes me want to put even one of my complaints on that delicious situation right now, but I won't allow a crimson monster to stand in front of it.

Her treasure-like emerald eyes intersect with the disastrous red and black eyes like cursed items.

Once again, Lily understood that the target had returned to herself, just that.

"Ah!!

It emits an explosive light sphere, a continuous blast that hits monster giants one after the other, but its stride never slows down.

Diving through a flood of light and sound, Larspun, burning in anger, sticks his arms out and approaches Lily.

Evade into the air where you are.

The advantages of aerial manoeuvre are significantly lower because Lily is free to fly through the sky enough to flirt with the Tenma Knight (Pegasus Night), but can barely even stop Larspun from moving without striking at close range.

Still, compared to Chrono, who can only run the ground on both feet, Lily would be pretty good at escaping into the air if she had to.

However, only a small amount of time is left to gain that advantage.

(Awkward, I've already exceeded my limit time...)

Lily today brings out the magic of 'Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)' to regain her original appearance.

Actually, there are still dragon-skinned scrolls (scrolls) of paper carved "Life Absorption (Lifedrain)," but this monster will never allow a slight gap in exercising it.

Therefore, there is no way to go back to the way it was when you used the optionally activated Red Crystal Ball.

And Lily understands with it that the limits are also approaching for capability activation by 'Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)'.

It explains to Chrono that the effect time is 30 minutes, but it is also possible to stretch it a bit more if the effect is only sustained.

In other words, it doesn't exactly lose its effect in half an hour and force it back to being a child.

After around half an hour, the flesh becomes intolerable to the magic flowing in from the 'Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)' and begins to develop symptoms similar to fatigue.

The exercise of 'Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)' is close to the feeling that you keep running at the maximum pace you can have, so to speak.

No problem for some time, but after a certain amount of time it is too burdensome.

"Ha... Ha..."

Lily's breath came up flying around the universe and eating lasers and light spheres while scratching Larspun's attack, which means for that reason.

(No, we can't just go back to kids yet)

Lily continues to exercise the 'Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl)', even though she clearly feels the burden of her flesh increasing.

Challenging this powerful monster opponent in childhood is too dangerous, if you can, you want to end the fight within the present time when you can definitely avoid an attack.

(I have some kind of hand, Chrono -)

Seeing, Chrono and Fiona do not return to the front immediately, and rock walls appear to cover and hide the two of them.

This is the only circumstance where you think you tried to escape at the expense of one of your people.

Common stories in adventurer operations, such as abandoning members.

Usually, even if we are close, if we are pushed during Setouchi, whether we live or die, it is a slight betrayal to say people.

That's why those who believe in each other and work together on the ground, and who can't fight as hard as they can until the end, become known as first-rate adventurer parties.

And that, although the rank is still 2, Lily believes that we are the same.

For more than thirty years since I was born, I have never believed in anyone, Lily, but now I'm sending something called full width trust to Chrono.

At last, I actually trusted Fiona only a little bit about what I had intentionally drawn into the membership.

(But if you want to set something up, hurry up, I won't do it anymore -)

A burden of magic that begins to dominate the flesh at an accelerating rate.

The kind of fatigue you feel as you continue to run through the unseen darkness ahead is heavily pressed against Lily's little body.

"Ha... ha..."

It created, for a moment, a real slight, but definite gap.

"- Wow!?

Lily, breathing, can't cope with Larspun's movements, which have stepped in at super high speeds, as if she had even traveled momentarily.

By the time I realized it was too late, every green shining fairy junction (Oracle Field) had been grabbed by two giant palms.

"Come on, let go!

Normally, enemies who have touched the fairy junction (Oracle Field) are burned down by the high heat of light.

However, it is not possible to scorch a single sheet of thin skin in the palm of the hand on this awesome heat resistant larspun.

It's a good thing Larspun doesn't take high heat damage, but his arms are flattered with unusual force to crush the line that protects Lily.

"What, uh..."

The fairy kingdom (Oracle Field) is violently and brightly extinguished with such intense oppression that mistletoes and sounds are likely to be heard.

"-" Light Blade (Force Edge) "!

The only way to fight back in this state is to activate the 'Light Blade (Force Edge)', which specializes in melee attacks that are not very prominent for the long-range type Lily.

If you are a somewhat sturdy opponent, allow two blades of light to burn apart with their high heat.

But it still sucks with Larspun.

Beat the 'Light Blade (Force Edge)' directly from under the palm of the palm that grabs the junction, but the light particles just leak from between the fingers as if to hold down the gushing water flow, not to cut the hand, finger.

(No, you can't run away!

A fairy junction (Oracle Field) that unfolds at all costs, but pushes back the defense of light, slightly, but does allow enemy invasion.

He violently sprays the primary color magic of light from the inside out and tries to push it back, but breaks through the junction and the fingertips of Larspun's right hand approach Lily's body one by one.

And finally, that vicious fingertip reaches Lily.

"Ah."

They grab two pairs of wings that shine in a rainbow color that can be called a fairy trademark, the tip of its large upper wing.

At the next moment, his fingertips began to tear his wings off forcefully.

Like a child who catches a butterfly feather, it is brutally, without any mercy, its beautiful and glowing feathers are pulled a thousand times.

"Gahhhhhhhhhhh!!

Ruthlessly, the grabbed upper left feather is lightly cut from half to a thousand.

Lily cries out distorting so much beauty that she is extinct to the intense pain and nasty sensation that she makes a part of her body while she lives it.

But still, Lily continues to maintain the fairy kingdom (Oracle Field) and protect herself.

With tears in my eyes, I eat up my teeth and don't give up until the earliest moment even if I don't know how many seconds I'll have ahead of me.

Chrono's gonna help me.

Because she believes.

(Chrono will definitely help me!

And what Lily believes is not a ruthless God who never reaches out to salvation.

We lived together, we fought together, our only partner, our beloved.

That's why

"Fuck off Lily. Yeah, yeah, yeah!!

She is saved.

Nothing else, by the hands of men.

(See, I knew Chrono was coming)
