Legend

'Those who plan to regain consciousness... you said Vihera and Rodos? Lay them on the floor. "

Grimm gives instructions as she floats near herself the heart of a silver lion that is still pulsating even when the demonic stone is removed.

Following the instructions, Johanna and her companions line up on the floor.

That sight, with two Vihelas and Rhodos lined up on the floor, was also very contrasting.

Women and men, unconscious and lean.

I saw those two, and once again, we exhale small together.

From now on, these two regain consciousness.

Even though you understand that, does that really happen to a corner of your mind? There were also thoughts.

I guess that still has something to do with Grimm being an undead monster.

I was aware of the grime of the gaze being directed from around me, but without looking particularly concerned, I would move on to the next action.

Moving his heart over the two unconscious people, he gently pokes the floor at the tip of the wand he had.

Moments, magic formations float on the floor around Vihera and Rodos.

... Yes, the magic formation was created instantly, rather than purposefully writing with something of its own.

Nor is that a small magic formation.

It focuses on Vihela and Rhodos and is a magical formation the size of a radius of about five meters.

"Nah!?

To the sight that suddenly spread in front of us, we all raise our voices of amazement.

So much so that the sight that's happening in front of the Rays was insanely extreme.

But Grimm didn't hear the Rays' voices as if they were bare, and he spins words that Rays don't understand very well while combining those hands that don't have a cane... just a bone.

The words...... As the spell progresses, the pulse of the heart that was floating over Vihera and Rhodos gradually weakens, instead the light pouring down from the heart pours down onto Vihera.

At this point, no light from the heart has fallen on Rhodos in any way, which would have only done the fact that priority is given to Vihera.

The look on Elk and Ming's face as he sees the light pouring down on Vihera is tight and tight.

If the light goes out before it pours down on Rodos, I guess that's only natural because it means Rodos won't regain consciousness today.

Elk's fist, which is squeezing with force, is about to tear his nails through his skin and bleed, and Min is also squeezing his wand so hard that his hands are white.

Other than that, Fumiko watched the light pouring out of the heart of the silver lion as she prayed that Vihera's consciousness could somehow be regained.

As it were, how much time the hell would have passed.

For the Rays watching still, every few seconds or minutes...... just the amount of time they felt in the hours if they did poorly.

Eventually the rain of light that was pouring down on Vihera's body stops.

The heart of the silver lion that was floating in the air has shrunk considerably compared to when it first rained out the light, but it was still quite large.

Seeing such a heart, Elk and Ming exhale slightly.

As far as this goes, he said he might be able to regain Rodos' consciousness.

Foreign body in itself.

Vihella had no idea how long it had been since the battle against that foreign object began.

It's been more than two months outside, but Vihella doesn't know that.

It's because I'm completely losing my sense of time.

With such a paralyzed sense of time, Vihera continues to fight the foreign bodies that are inside her.

Ambris. We knew it was called that, but even with such opponents, we continue to attack each other one after the other.

Most importantly, an attack is not an attack in the sense of beating or kicking directly, let alone using skills, as is happening in the real world.

Recognize that this is where you are and reject the other person. Such a battle.

No, is it correct to say exclusion rather than rejection?

I am fighting such a battle in an extended way, but I am tired of Vihella because of the lack of a sense of time... there is no fatigue at all in the spiritual sense.

On the contrary, they were even able to gradually overwhelm Ambris over time.

However... I can be overwhelmed, but I have no control over what should also be called the nucleus of Ambris.

I can be precise in my hands, but am I correct in describing Vihella's attacks as totally unproductive?

Ambris was also starting to attack me as if he understood it, or took a defensive stance of the iron wall against his shell and poked a gap in Vihera.

Viewed in terms of the war situation, the overwhelming advantage is Vihella.

But I still can't win...... it's such a close situation to a thousand hands.

(You got it. In a situation like this forever, maybe I'm making Ray worry)

Even words spoken do not actually sound like words in the present situation.

This is such an odd space.

I was already used to that, Vihera, but to be honest, I couldn't come up with the means to do something about the nucleus of Ambris at the end of my gaze.

Something other than that nucleus… For example, if you are like a tentacle stretching out of that nucleus and trying to erode yourself, you can make it disappear lightly by releasing the strong idea of eliminating it.

But all you can do with it is a fraction of the Ambris that grows out of the nucleus.

There's nothing the nuclear can do about it.

Sometimes I wondered if I could defeat Ambris sooner or later if I took more time than I was wiping out some of the Ambris.

But if Ambris feels really dangerous to herself, I also wonder if that's why she won't even do what comes out of her tentacles.

As long as I'm in my own nucleus, Vihella's attacks are ineffective.

I mean, at least I have my own life there.

That was very troublesome for Vihela, and it was also the reason why she couldn't let the tentacles that were coming out of the nucleus in a detour disappear.

(I wonder what I really should do. It's very troublesome.... that my offense against Ambris doesn't work is purely my lack of offensive power? But it doesn't seem to matter what your biological body is like to be aggressive in this world)

I can't help it.

That was Vihella's conclusion.

Of course, I still thought about it a lot and tried it... but it didn't work out either.

As a result, more than 90% of this world already belonged to Vihera, but it was in a state of footsteps there.

(I think Ray can do something about it... was that quite a while ago? Or did you just follow me? I had a few feelings that my body would be able to help me)

The feeling was, in fact, that Ray had given Vihella a mouthful of world-tree potion, or that the user of restorative magic had used restorative magic on Vihela... but the person at the time is not aware of that at all.

It doesn't help in this space, even if you have the feeling that your body can get into it.

... No, it still helped in the sense that I could see that Ray was acting out to do something about himself from the outside.

(Not, I need to do something about it anyway. You can't see Ray forever if you stay like this.)

The moment I thought so...... unexpectedly, truly and unexpectedly, Vihera felt her consciousness grow stronger.

That's what I've been wondering. Increased power enough to make you want to say that.

By analogy, if I was a goblin until earlier, would I be a cyclops or something?

(No, I kinda hate to compare myself to a goblin)

While denying her own thoughts, I don't know for what reason, but Vihella grins that her body has gained strength.

Above all, because Vihera fully understood who did this.

(Definitely, it must be Ray. Maybe he's cooperating around the marina. Or... so to speak, is Bühne back already?

Behind the brains of Vihera, the appearance of various people passes.

Even while I was thinking about it, Vihella found that her powers grew over time.

Also... it is natural that Ambris, who is in Vihera, understands that Vihera's abilities are increasing, and Ambris' nucleus shakes as confused.

Until now, Vihella couldn't do any damage to her own nucleus, but not now.

Vihera, who has come to host immense power to see, said that it would undoubtedly be able to destroy it if it were the nucleus of today. Because I thought so.

Even if you think about it, Ambris doesn't have the clear ability to think like a human being.

You're acting almost according to your instincts, so maybe it's right that you felt that way.

But... that's why I feared the person in front of me.

It was Ambris who was about to be extinguished by Ray, inspired by his survival instincts from that fear, and who made the choice to enter Vihera as his way to survive and take over that body, but now Ambris is once again inspired by his survival instincts.

If you stay like this, you die.

I know that, but I can't get out of here on my own volition any more than I've already gotten into Vihera's body.

There is no way to avoid it, even though I disappear as I am.

I guess the biggest miscalculation for Ambris was the spiritual strength of Vihella.

Instead of taking over Vihera's body, I am now only managing to survive as a nucleus in just a fraction of Vihera's spiritual world.

Dying, living, dying, living, dying, living.

He was an Ambris who had no ability to think, but was therefore simply aware that he was dead as he was and could not survive.

If you fight, you understand in previous experience that you lose, and you cannot escape from the spiritual world of Vihella to escape. There is no way you can prevent an attack, not long ago, or prevent the current attack of Vihela with your own defense.

Exactly, a condition that can be called absolute desperation without any more. That was the state of Ambris now.

There's no way to fight it.

All Ambris can do is close to his nucleus and solidify his defense.

... In this case, I guess I was fortunate that Ambris's ego was poorly developed.

Because if I had developed myself poorly, I would not have been able to stand the fear of extinguishing myself.

Still noisy, Ambris, awakened by survival instincts, wonders if he manages to survive.

Because it was originally a natural phenomenon, I can't think of any way to negotiate with Vihera.

While Ambris is lost, Vihera begins to act.

It started to erode with Ambris' nuke.

Until not long ago, no matter how hard I tried, Ambris' nucleus would never be eroded.

However, if Vihela is now more powerful, it is possible to erode even the nucleus of Ambris.

Of course not all of the nuclei are eroded at once, but still little by little... then surely the nucleus of Ambris is eroded by the presence of Vihela.

Die. Lose. Disappear.

Ambris' instincts cannot be clearly worded, but instinctively he is filled with the abhorrence of disappearing.

Disappear, disappear, disappear.

When I realized that my extinction was an absolutely inevitable thing... one thought arose with despair in Ambris.

I can't just tolerate myself disappearing like this.

If so, by whatever means… he wants to leave his existence because he doesn't have to be able to recognize the existence of himself.

Erosion into the nucleus by Vihella continues even while thoughts are changing within Ambris.

Until not too long ago, the nucleus, which was absolutely inviolable, had already been eroded by Vihella by about forty percent.

As it is, I am eroded and extinguished within not so far away.

Before that, I needed to go into action.

When I decided that I wanted to leave a little trace of my life just because Ambris only has instincts, there was no such thing as hesitation, and I was quick to move into action.

I greet Vihella so reluctantly that I don't think she had a nuclear defense until a moment ago.

And he spreads the existence of himself, who is eroded while he sees it, so that he is absorbed by Vihera as he is.

(Yeah?)

It was Vihera, who questioned the abrupt cessation of Ambris' resistance, but it must be because of this spiritual connection. I could understand the thought that Vihera had of the presence of Ambris.

If it's going to disappear like this, let Vihella absorb herself and try to leave a little trace of it.

Vihera herself didn't quite understand why she accepted it without rejecting Ambris.

Was it because we spent an odd amount of time together, short or long, or because we needed more strength to be next to Ray?

I just know that accepting Ambris as it is... if absorbed precisely, my powers would definitely go up.

And if your powers rise, it also means you can fight stronger enemies and fuller battles.

For various reasons… As a result, Vihera decides to accept, absorb and make her own nourishment.

When he finished absorbing Ambris, he eventually filled his surroundings with light, and for the first time in a long time, Vihera did the act of opening the lid of his own flesh.
