Legend

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ver is being slashed off his left arm from his shoulder and holding onto that ugly, melting face with his remaining right hand as he bleeds all the time.

I was a stopped ray of surprise moves on that ugly face for only a moment, but I just tried to shake the death size down because I deserved it...

"Gru!"

Hear Seto's imminent screams heard from behind him, and at the same time swing his death size down, realizing something coming towards him.

……

But the person who came towards it. In other words, the golem who was supposed to be fighting Seto would not even behave properly, but would be slashed in two by a death-size blade that was passed through magic by exposing itself to the blade as if it had gone from itself to the death-size.

(Shit!?

Ray leaps backwards with almost reflective momentum. But a moment earlier than that, its golem, cut in two by a death-sized blade, glittered...

Boom!

and explodes as the blast is scattered around.

It was Ray who took that blow at close range, but shows up in what can be described as total intact after the blast clears. And as I say instead, the magic shield that was floating around Ray disappears like Kasumi.

(I didn't know it was a suicide bomber. No damage thanks to Magic Shield...... Huh! What about Ver!?

Swing Death Size, persistently blow any remaining smoke and look for Ver.

I don't think I can get away with losing the tip from my left shoulder and my face being ugly and melting away, but I still look around quickly saying I can't stay alert until I stop breathing, but I heard that voice from where the smoke is still.

"Ha, ha. Hey, I guess I got a little alarmed. … but not next time."

Distort your face to the severe pain in your left shoulder...... but even Ver declares so while distorting the melting and melting face even uglier.

And the only thing left on its right hand is a gemstone grip, trying to slap it to the ground...

"Let him go!

Expand the list of mysteries to the back of your brain quickly. Take out the needle that appeared at the beginning of that list and quickly throw it at Ver, who was about to tap the gem to the ground.

The needle, released with sharpness and speed as if to slash and tear the air, pierced Ver's right thigh in a straight line as if it were a prey eating raptor as he dripped venom.

Oddly enough, the needle that Ray just threw was about to be released as a trap in this dungeon's sprawling hierarchy, which Ver disarmed and Ray got.

"Gu, you'll do it to the end. But this fight is my win!

The poison needle thrown with Ray's power was piercing Ver's wearing leather armor and piercing it into his right thigh, but he slammed the jewel he had on the ground regardless of it... spreading no more dazzling flashes all around him than the one released by the golem earlier.

"Chi, Seto!

"Grr!"

I don't know what's going on, but I need to get him out of here. I'm just calling Seto.

Reacting to that voice, Seto unleashes a windarrow, to which the loser and Ray also unleash a flying slash.

But...

"... disappeared, or"

A dazzling flash that illuminates the surrounding area. After that flash disappeared, Ver's figure was nowhere, just as if it were evidence that Ver had been there until earlier, the blood flowed when his left arm was cut off to the ground and, a little further apart, Ver's left arm rolled.

And in the back of the room, on the wall ahead where Ver stood, there are multiple large scars that appear to have been slashed by flying slaughter and those decided by Wind Arrow, which Seto would have unleashed.

Ray had arrived at the answer to what Ver had used. Perhaps the jewels that beat him to the ground contained space magic. It's also called transference magic. It is very difficult to grant space magic to a magic item without having to consider the rare value of the item box. However, if profitability was negligible and disposable only once, it would have been possible with the technology of the Bestian Empire.

(Still, I guess it's only because of the level of alchemy equivalent to that of the magic city of Ozos...)

Exhaling, anyway, defeating Ver, who is also a bug in the lion, determines that there is no further danger and hurries down to Elaine.

Put your finger on the neck muscle, make sure you have a pulse and exhale in relief. And that gaze turns to Custe lying next to Elaine.

"... Custe"

It would be obvious from that open eye that Custe, who was lying on Elaine's side, is out of business. However, as far as the satisfying grin on that face was concerned, it could have been predicted that Ray had probably died after confirming that he had repelled Ver.

"He was the one who didn't care.... that's for sure. But you passed away acting properly as Elaine's escort. I'll admit it."

Put your arms together over your chest, remove your helmet and close your eyes.

The full plate mails that were covering the body were mostly crushed by a blow from Ray's death size, and all that remains are the armor, the toenails, equipped with the hands and feet. And about the helmet I just took off.

"Gru."

Ray ignored Custe as the air, but Seto was openly hostile. Still, I guess there was something to think about when I saw the earlier exchange. Ringing tiny in the back of his throat. That looked like Ray was praying for soul relief.

"The question is... what happened to the ritual of inheritance,"

Whimpering, the gaze goes to the altar of inheritance.

The magic stones of the Enchanted Dragon, which should have been there, are scattered all around the area, shattered and scattered by Ver's blow.

The fortunate thing about being unhappy is that about 70% of it was already absorbed by Elaine? But...

(It is the ritual of inheritance that absorbs everything. We were able to absorb that only up to about 70%. how this will turn out)

At the end of his gaze is the figure of Elaine, who is still losing her mind. The loss of consciousness and the closing of eyes still highlight the beauty of Jean Elaine.

"Anyway, there's nothing I can do until Ara and Elaine wake up. I don't even know if I can carry it like this."

As for Ray, I had to wait for the two of them to wake up because I don't even know how losing their minds in the magic team affects the ritual.

Then remove the clean cloth from the mystering and hang it on to Custe for a few hours.

"Mmm..."

The first person to wake up was Ara, not Elaine.

"... Wake up, Ara"

"Ray...... my lord?

When Ara wakes up, she looks around without understanding the situation for a moment.

"Huh!? What about Master Elaine?!?

You must have remembered what was happening near you losing your mind, getting up quickly and looking around.

Then I find Elaine losing her mind on the side of the altar of inheritance, and she grabs that hand by Ray trying to rush over.

"Ara!"

"Lord Ray, please let me go! Master Elaine!

"Just calm down! Elaine is forced to end the ritual of inheritance along the way! It's dangerous to move your body out of the magic formation in that state in a detour! We don't know what's gonna happen!

It was Arla who glanced at Ray with a half-hearted eye, but I guess Elaine reacted to the word danger. It gradually subsides in the killing spirit that is overflowing from its body.

"... excuse me"

"Never mind. I know how much you admire Elaine, and I can't help it."

Finally, I take the bottle out of the mysteries to the calm Ara, just to notice. It's a wine I bought in the city of Gilm.

Ray himself is not that strong on alcohol. Still, I sometimes drink it to the extent that I prefer it, and I bought it as a reminder when I had to - and that's why I bought it when I had to.

Pull the cork out of the bottle as hard as you can and pour it into the cup and serve it to Ara.

"Take it and drink it. It'll calm you down a little."

"... excuse me"

Chibili, Arla who shuts up and drinks wine with Chibili. The face was troubling, and it was easy to imagine Ray thinking about Ver's betrayal. And...

"... that? Lord Ray, Ver has betrayed you. I understand that.... So, what about Custe? Maybe Custe too..."

Has Custe betrayed you, too? Ray blocks the words from Ara, who tried to go on like that, and turns his gaze to those covered with a clean cloth near Elaine.

"Gru......"

Seto also turns his gaze to Custe's body as he falls asleep on the ground and takes Ray's weight.

"Huh?... Oh no... you're lying!?

Place the cup you had with both hands on the ground, approaching the fearful body of Custe, gently shifting the cloth you are covering.

What was there was the death face of Custe, even though he grinned satisfactorily, with blood around his mouth, to say peace.

"Why... why! Why is Custe dead?

Arla beats the cobblestone, as if she had been moved by passion. Due to its rigidity, the rugged cobblestone contains cracks and crushed fragments fly around it.

Keep hitting the cobblestone multiple times, for a few minutes. Did you finally settle down? Wipe that tear hard and turn your gaze toward Ray.

"Lord Ray... let me know. Did you do this... Ver, is it?

"... oh"

"What was Custe... at what end?

From that fist the skin was torn and the blood was dripping with the flesh visible. Grip your fists hard as if you don't notice that too... not just from the back of your hand, but your nails tear through the skin of your palms, and the blood is pounding and zeroing out from there as well.

"Remember how Ver used to give Custe his own water bottle several times after diving into this dungeon?

"... Yes"

"It seems the contents of the water bottle contained magic medicine. Custe became Ver's puppet because of the magic drug."

"No! But Ver himself was drinking that water bottle!?

"They had antidotes in place. Use magic items to increase your physical abilities to fight me..."

That's when I whined. Ara's gaze turns to Ray with a killing spirit.

"So you think it was Lord Ray who killed Custe?

I shake my neck to the left and right, even though I feel the killing spirit that makes me bathe all over my body.

"Even in that state, I was better at fighting than Custe. I punched him thoroughly with a Death Size pattern, destroyed the armor on the torso, and blew it up. So, before Custe attacked me again, it was a battle between me and Ver trying to clean up Ver... he got lost in the battle's dothax and Ver released a little golem at some point. You'd be rolling over there."

That said, at the end of the gaze Ray pointed at, there was a figure of a golem stabbing his torso with a dagger and stopping his function.

There is still a long sword in Golem's hand.

"When that golem tried to launch an attack on Elaine, I don't know how Custe did it, but break the magic drug restraint and shelter Elaine..."

"The strength of Lord Ray!

Ara raises her voice like a blood-soaking scream. But immediately stop that screaming bullet and look down.

I guess I held hands even stronger than before. There is a lot of blood falling from its hands to the ground.

"... No, you're not talking about how I can say this when I pass out. Besides, if you look at Custe's face, it's certain that he died satisfactorily, so there's no point where I blamed Lord Ray here. If you're going to avenge me, I'm going to avenge Ver."

Determined, Ray takes the potion out of Mystering watching Arla put out in her mouth to carve those words into herself.

"Heal that wound for now."

"Yes, I'm sorry"

When the bottle containing the potion is swinging to the right hand of the dominant arm, in less than 30 seconds Ara's right hand recovers to one original scratch-free state.

"So what should Elaine do?"

He solidified his determination to argue Ver with his own hands, and healed his hand wounds and finally calmed down. He was Arla, who turned his gaze toward Elaine, who still woke up in the middle of the magic formation, but Ray just shook his head left and right.

"There's nothing more I can do than know what ritual of inheritance is. I have confirmed that I have a pulse, so I think it would be nice to wait for me to wake up naturally after that. Fortunately, there's no such thing as a monster roaming the aisle at the bottom."

"But doesn't that mean I'll be waiting like this forever?

"Well. There's still room for food, and the meat from the monster is in the item box... but I don't really think it's healthy to be sleeping here. … If we wait for the second half of the day and we don't wake up, let's just say we understand the danger."

Ray removing the hourglass, which is also a magic item, from the item box.

"This hourglass takes two hours for the sand to fall. If I weigh half a day with this and Elaine still doesn't notice..."

I guess I figured out what Ray was trying to say. Ara nods small.

"Okay."

This is how we waited for the time to pass without saying a word to each other.
