Excalibur's blade pierces Erwin's neck. I twist it hard instead of pulling it out. And in that state, I breathed the energy of the fire. Considering there were two demons' lives, it was to end them all at once.

Even though his breasts were pierced, Erwin didn't say a word, let alone a struggle. I didn't moan. I just had a wide-eyed convulsion.

Soon, Erwin's whole body is engulfed in a clear fire and scattered into a handful of ashes. I stood still for a while with a knife that wouldn't even shed blood.

“ ……. ”

In fact, I still don't feel numb. I gained too much power at once. Maybe it's more of an adaptation problem than a hollow one. I felt that the membrane of the stage that had barely climbed up through all kinds of hardships was so easily lowered.

... around the age of 20. That's what I thought when I got a warrant. Imagine that every soldier does it once in a while. I want to get out. How would it feel to be discharged two years later?

It was similar after entering the hall plane. I wanted to get out of this hellish world as soon as I could. I didn't know how long it would take, but later I wondered what it would feel like to be comfortable after everything was done.

And now comes the moment I didn't even want to look at.

“… ha. ”

I don't know. When I left the station and the troops, I just seemed to have collapsed, but it was something like that. How can I say I feel indescribable?

But I do know one thing.

Finally.

“Is it over? ”

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise struck my ear.

When I turned around in surprise, the black energy was rising like smoke. At that moment, I doubted my eyes. because it was Gehenna who was pushed backwards from the smoke. Tanatos is chasing Gehenna, who is stumbling and walking backwards, like a stunned Boar.

No way. Gehenna's pushing?

“Gehenna!”

The moment I shouted that I couldn't believe it, I could clearly see it. A slight smile on Gehenna's face when she blew me off at the moment of the incision.

Boom!

The next moment, Tanatos strikes again. Gehenna's abdomen folds in half and rolls the earth with much more sky. By the time I got there, my body was already flying towards you.

“Gehenna?”

“Hehe. Y-you…. ”

Gehenna barely raises her upper body and chews her lips in a furious tone. Then, suddenly, I pointed to the abdomen that was hit like a pathetic expression and waited.

“He, he hit me. ”

“… Huh? ”

“Tanatos just hit me. I just kept getting beat up. ”

“ ……. ”

It's a little weird not to see any scars for that. Anyway, I just saw Millie.

But when I looked back, I was embarrassed. And I felt the fury of tearing him to pieces as soon as I could. because the condition of Tanatos that I saw up close was terrible.

Wow, that's bad. I can't even see if one arm is torn off, and the hole in my body is quite grotesque. Plus, I was badly frightened or my flesh was melted and I was badly crushed.

This is what Tanatos looks like on the verge of dying. In fact, his energy is extremely weak. Maybe the scene was the last attack that pulled out the power of the breastfeeder.

“Mr. Black. I suddenly have a question. ”

“Yes, go ahead. Mercedes.”

While I was confused, I heard men and women speaking in close proximity. Behemoth and a maid sit down to talk. Now that I think about it, this is also strange. If Gehenna was being pushed, why didn't she help?

“Before, Gehenna was pushing that bitch aside, wasn't she? ”

“I think it's more accurate to say that you played with them than you pushed them away. ”

“That's right. I didn't understand that I told you not to interfere, and I didn't understand that you could end the battle so quickly..." Did you just get beat up on purpose? ”

“Oh, you know what? In my short opinion, I said," I think it's because I'm conscious of my father. ”

What's that supposed to mean?

“Actually, you mentioned a few reunions with your father before. What's it called, an ancient evil god? Anyway, he pretended to have been hurt on purpose at the time, saying that he couldn't feel so good that he was angry for himself. I mean... Unh! ”

“Oh my! Gehenna? What the hell is this? ”

I don't know what happened, but behemoth collapsed for a moment. At the same time, I suddenly felt a huge life behind my back. I think I know who it is without even looking. I fixed my gaze on the stunned Behemoth with a dented helmet. If I turn around now, I'll be killed by Gehenna for no reason.

Yeah. Now let's focus on taking care of Tanatos.

“? ”

But Tanatos has disappeared from the position he saw earlier. To be more precise, he climbs into the air in front of him and hangs in his lap. It's like being dragged up by the collar. I don't know who caught me.

“Hey, say that again. ”

I heard a voice that sounded like it was boiling in anger, although low.

Pair!

Then the sound of a thumping kick rang out. A red chlorinated palm grits the cheek of the target. If you hit it so hard, Tanattos' jaw snaps back.

“Say it like it was then? ”

Pair!

Is this an original flame blaze? I never thought I would actually see it.

“What? You like it? ”

Pair!

In a blazing robe of hot fire, the cracked head spins back and forth.

Thanatos shows no reaction, not rebellion. I was worried that his body was already limping. It's probably just that I've had enough of Gehenna while I'm being released.

“You want me to feel sealed up? ”

Pair!

Yeah, of course. Gehenna can't lose. Moreover, Tanatos was incapable of using my powers.

... By the way, does God usually fight like this? Or is this something special?

“Ha! Why did the God of Death drink his tail? Where is the strength...? … Huh, what? ”

I hear voices that make me flustered. The trembling sensation of Tanatos' body seems to grab and shake his neck. Suddenly I became anxious.

“Joo, you're dead? ”

What? I'm sorry.

“Dead?”

Suddenly, Tanatos flinches as he looks up. Then it grabs my head again and locks it down.

And after a while, the flame that supposedly belonged to peace struck the ground and regretted watching Tanatos gradually burn. It was because Tanatos had wasted so much time trying to make up for it.

You know, dramatically rescued, with enormous powers like hers.

Of course, I didn't expect to come up with something salty and cool, but I don't feel like I got my revenge right. Rather, it feels hollow. At least I thought Tanatos could fight harder.

“You're playing. Then why would I advise you to get your strength up? I didn't ask you to do it because things are getting easier. ”

She told Pinzan Jo that she had read my thoughts.

“And…. I-I never thought that Tanatos would die so easily. I just slapped a few grudges, and I was completely numb. So it's all her fault. ”

It has to be. As far as I can tell, Tanatos was in serious condition. Maybe Gehenna did it on purpose after pushing him to the level that he could kill with just one original spike. It was a win-win war.

Maybe you should be satisfied that you finished it yourself.

“Wait! Why are you making excuses? ”

Gehenna shouts in an angry voice, "Are you ready to take responsibility?"

“So it's not? ”

“Yes. I see your ignorant attack.... ”

“What is it? Unconscious? I can't even play properly...! ”

“What?”

... No. I like it when you two fight. But why is the temples getting stronger? Don't get mad at me.

Well, anyway.

“Then…. ”

Are we really done here?

“Soo-hyun.”

The moment I thought about it, someone patted me on the shoulder. I barely looked back and my elasticity exploded by itself. It was my brother who was smiling and looking at me.

“Here, I've come to return it. ”

He reached out his hand as soon as he saw me. On the palm of your hand lies a small globe of blue light. Zero code.

I reached out my hand and grabbed the zero-code. For some reason, I felt warm in my hands.

“So, how are you feeling? ”

My voice flowed before my ears while I was staring blankly. When I met his gentle eyes, my body suddenly became stiff. If you ask me how it's going, I'll tell you I'm stuck.

He glanced at me for a long time and grabbed me with a light smile.

“Tongue, brother. ”

“Hold on. Hold still. Give me a hug.”

Eventually, a bloody arm wrapped around my neck. It was so tight that I could barely breathe. By the time I was about to choke, my brother, who had let go of the silver, still patted my shoulder with a smiling face.

“I'll take care of it, but the rest of you don't know? ”

After saying something I didn't know in English, I stepped aside for a moment. I was furious, so I pulled my head back. It's because someone slammed in front of him and made a fuss.

“You rascal...? ”

As my hands cut through the air without hesitation, I stare tremblingly at Ko, shaking loudly. I'm embarrassed, too.

“Why, why are you avoiding me? ”

“Why, why are you hitting me? ”

In the same way, Yeon-ju blinked a couple of times. Then he slowly straightens his posture and scratches his head shruggedly.

“Just…. For some reason, I think we should. ”

“That's ridiculous. Where is that? ”

“Wait a minute. Where did you say you did well? Earlier on the stage, I didn't really care, did I? And you lied! What, you're just gonna rescue a clan member and come right back? ”

“… Huh. ”

I have nothing to say this time. Yeon-ju gives you a big smile and turns her hands around with poisonous eyes. It's like you have to hit one to get your mind off it.

I sighed a long time. Of course, I can't say it wasn't my fault, but I think I got pretty cocky while I was away. As I went back, I opened my arms, pleading to scold my hopeful chest.

“More than that…. How about a hug? ”

“What, what? ”

“That would be more appropriate under the circumstances. ”

“ ……. ”

When I wink and say it naturally, I make the expression that classical music is ridiculous. It was that moment.

“Brother!”

The familiar shape, along with the atlantic voice, swiftly swarms next to the rendition. An outstretched anvil rushes towards you with open eyes. Excellent surprise.

So about a meter away.

“Hey! Who are you...! ”

A chunk of thunder burrows through the air. It was Suna.

Puck!

“Ohhh!”

Suna pushes Ansol's face with her rear foot kick, and uses that repulsive power to disintegrate. But why are they so impressed as soon as they see me?

“Nu, who are you? How dare someone push me! ”

... Do you really think I haven't seen him? And ‘I hate to hug you, but I can't help it because someone pushed me.’ What's with that look on your face? I can't persuade them to fly around with their arms wide open as if they were waiting.

It was then.

“No way!”

Whoo-hoo!

I didn't do anything, but suddenly the defensive fortress of Gehenna was set in motion. It was right before Suna put her arms around me.

Tongue!

Of course, Suna fell headlong into the tent, and I looked back where I heard her voice.

“Phew…. Ugh, yeah? ”

Gehenna reaches out to me with her mouth turned around. When he looks at me, he quickly hides his hands and stares at the distant mountain with a stern face.

Something's not right about that.

“ ……? ”

Suddenly, I was surrounded.

The question is, why aren't there any men and all women?

Gehenna, Suna, Goon Ju, Ansol and Hwa are the same.

“Hehe. Hehe. ”

Im Hannah, who puts arrows in her bows with a smile.

“ ……. ”

The one who breaks his head without saying a word.

“Come on. This is going to hurt a lot. ”

Jeongyeon summons a huge chunk of ice and gives it to someone.

“Well, yeah. ”

Vivian shrugged her shoulders as if she had no choice.

Moreover, the reason for pulling out the dagger, Kim Hanbyol who picks out the jewelry calmly, and Han So-young who looks a little angry... What about Han So-young?

Everyone's face is sincere enough to say it's a joke. Then An-hyun pairs up with Jin Soo-hyun and says, "Sell popcorn!" I'm talking nonsense. Seon Yoon, who stood boldly, looks at me and bows his head with his hands together.

What is this? What is this war?

“Oh, my God. It's not even funny. ”

At that moment, I heard a voice that sounded like there was no sense of peace. Then I felt a slight graze next to me, and I felt a reflexive force in my eyes.

No way... Are you finally ready to show your face?

At that moment, the warm energy suddenly approached my face.

“Soo-hyun Kim, listen to me. ”

Very low voice. As I rolled my eyes, I saw white cheeks reminiscent of white eyes and long, flowing hair. It's pretty dark-red.

“Well, you know. ”

It was a very serious voice, so I nodded my head unknowingly.

And then he hesitated for a long time.

“... I will. ”

I whispered in my ear quietly. I couldn't hear it well because it was too small.

“What?"

“I'm going to kill you. ”

“What are you talking about? Why did you kill me? ”

“Oh, I see! ”

She yells nervously and sticks her mouth to my ear again. A trembling sensation was conveyed.

And...

“Go, make fun of my tiny breasts and I'll kill you! Please!”

It was the moment I heard the unexpected.

“Phew!”

At the same time, I suddenly felt the feeling of not knowing the identity of the person who was pressing heavily on my body.

“Haha…. Hahahaha...!"

I burst into laughter without knowing it.

You hear the sound of anger, but there are strange eyes everywhere, yet the smile does not subside. I could feel that the war was over in one unexpected word. I didn't stop laughing.

The sound echoes joyfully around the quiet area, spreading like a breeze along the gentle sunlight.
