Manowa

Zacks was stunned by the sudden thunder and roar that passed right in front of him.

That was certainly fast. But from what I've seen, it didn't seem that way as the speed of magical light shooting.

But if you look at the jumped land octopus, its power will be obvious. The demons were bouncing off momentum as if they were adventurers who had eaten the attack of Minotaur.

Although that was good because it only hit demons, it would surely have been wiped out if that was a direct hit on us. I think so. Something cold runs on Zacks' spine. But it is also true that in reality it did not hit Zacks and the others, and that only demons were defeated.

(This... the fact that you only targeted demons meant someone came to join us?

I've never seen or heard of such magic, Zacks, but it's just a coincidence and this can't be the situation. As soon as Zacks thought, if so, did we help... and wondered if that chunk of thunderlight flipped kickingly, the thunderlight lit up and disappeared as if it had exploded simultaneously. And there appeared a black horse with a bee and a purple discharge from inside, and a black carriage with a giant cat on the roof.

"... not only a small dragon on a cat?

Zacks squeals so. Yes, some of them were like children of black dragons on the cat. When Zacks was stunned, the little dragon suddenly radiated a ray of light and swept away the land octopus that was approaching the carriage. Even more so.

"I'm going to step up."

"I'll join you."

Little angels and flaming angels from the direction of the thunderous carriage running Minciana, and chunks of thunder, descended upon the Zacks as they put it.

And a man and a girl and a bunch of pussies also jumped out of the carriage, and the man rode the giant cat that was on the carriage, and called the knight of the skeleton to begin the fight, and the girl also began to kick the land octopus with the black wolf, as she followed it.

"You can't do this one anymore. This one has breath. Kazane, I'm gonna put on some high heels with you."

"Yes."

And Zacks rounds his eyes when he sees an elf woman with huge milk coming from the carriage.

"Sister Louise!?

That was Zacks' known face. There was once a figure of a skilled female adventurer who had Zacks attend several parties when he was younger. I've seen her a long time ago, but the woman is an elf, so she stood there as if she were the same as when Zacks once saw her.

"Yeah? Who...... uh, oh, you Zacks?

"That's right. It's me. It's Zacks.

It's already been ten years. I thought I should have changed a lot myself who was a young man, but Louise seemed to remember. Even in this situation, Zacks' heart was overflowing with nostalgia and relief.

"Man, you stared at my chest so much that the hole was empty, just like you, because it wasn't there."

And Zacks' people laugh when Louise slaps lightly. The feeling of despair seems to be clear already.

"Don't laugh, you guys. You'll see how I feel."

Zacks argues yes with his buddies as he blushes. And the fellows who glanced at Louise's chest also nodded, "Oh." There was something violent there. The party also had a mix of women, but they look like they gave up when they saw their little things.

But Zacks felt cold water poured over Louise's next point.

"More than that, you seem to be doing something bad."

When Zacks looked at Louise, that gaze was clearly something of the kind directed at the enemy. But it wasn't Zacks, it was the kind of gaze he was looking inside Zacks, but it must still have been Zacks' frozen thoughts.

"Oh, oh... that"

"This way more than that," protests Angel Chinchcline as Zacks mumbles.

"This is the only time you're here, so..."

Zacks was also gnawed at the words. Zacks understood that what the two of them had said would be 'black potion'. But the angel Chinchillin knew the use of "Black Potion" was "only this time".

But it is also true that the current situation cannot afford to confirm that. It would surprise the Zacks even more to see a giant black ghost pop up in the middle of the battle, but it seemed to be a chinchillin summons, following the land octopus one after the other with a black stick.

And the battle between a group of whites and Zacks Ravens drove the herds of land octopuses one after the other, and the battle ended in just a few moments.

"Yes!?

After the battle, Zacks was hanging in the shadow of a single carriage.

Now it seems that Moldova, who has regained consciousness, has arranged words of appreciation for the addition of a group of whites. Most of the dead adventurers were still young adventurers' parties apart from the Zacks, but two of Zacks' companions also died.

Zacks was resting alone leaving the body to his companions. Her face is pale and she is sweating. But right now, we're busy with post-battle processing. Therefore Zacks was off duty away from the situation.

"Oh, it looks painful all the time."

I hear that resting Zacks.

"... Sister Louise"

It was Louise who was there when Zacks turned to that voice.

"Thank you for this one"

Zacks expresses his sincere gratitude to Louise. There was much to be thanked for not having to work the injustice of abandoning the caravan, and for not wiping out all my people. But Louise laughs and shakes her neck to the side.

"That's fine. It's our leader's instructions, so if you want to thank him, tell him."

"Oh, is that angel child? No, thank you, of course."

"More than that, show me your arms."

So Louise grabbed Zacks' right arm forcefully and lifted it.

"I was there."

Zacks raises his voice unintentionally to the pain, but Louise's gaze is nailed to his right arm. The arm was now dyed black. Something black pulsed through his arms, and his fingertips were slightly clear. That was that flesh was degenerating into spiritual matter. In other words, it is astralisation.

"You've been drinking a lot of black potion."

To Louise, who speaks like a jerk, Zacks looks pathetic like a blamed child.

"I knew you knew"

Thought that would be the case with the reaction during the fight, but Louise was aware that Zacks was drinking black potion.

"Sort of. Rapid erosion is occurring from the incorporation of a high concentration of negative astral bodies into the body. The poison is eroding the flesh and astralisation is progressing. You know, if you stay like this, your flesh will spread like a piece of clothing with a broken thread."

Zacks giggles at that Louise proclamation, but laughs powerlessly as it is.

"You knew there were side effects. I didn't even know if I could get away with it like that. Perhaps it's not too bad to think that you've earned time to come and help."

At least I thought it was good as Zacks because my people didn't have to be wiped out. No, should I say I had to think about it? The only black thing in Zacks is not the heavily symptomatic arm. I feel 'there' on both legs, and there seems to be something else going around my whole body. In fact Zacks' body was partially blackened by many, and I didn't think I could do anything about it if I cut off his arm.

(Failure…)

I was listening when I bought the black potion. If it is incompatible, it will lead to death. Still, Zacks bought it because he wanted to keep it as a trump card just in case. The result was that it helped, but that I would die like this, and the woman in front of me confirmed it. Louise hacked Pearl into Zacks' head thinking that way.

"Look, I don't feel sorry for you."

"But I can't stop shaking when I'm looking at these arms. I don't think I can go back."

Zacks puts out his right hand. Zacks no longer has the feeling of that dark hand. I can't stop myself slowly moving towards death. I was feeling that fear. But Louise shook her head to the side and laughed.

"No. Not yet, I'll be there in time."

"Is that true?

Zacks looks up unexpectedly at the words.

"Yeah. Do you have the money to just get regenerative healing?

"I've managed for what I've saved... but is that going to cure you?

"If time had passed, I couldn't, but fortunately I'm still in shape because I'm right after I become an astral body. I'll take out the poison in that body, so go to the Academy of Healing or the Temple, and you'll get regenerative healing soon. Maybe we'll have a little sequelae, but we'll figure it out."

Regenerative healing is the technique of regenerating damaged flesh based on the information of the astral body. Unlike Jinlai, who was eaten arm by arm by astral body, I guess that means Zacks has a prospect of going back to normal.

"If you pull out the poison, if you cut off your worst arm, your life will be saved. If you can't seem to get treatment, consider it."

"That's... oh, okay. Thank you, Sister Louise."

Zacks said so in tears, shrugging off the body he had been hanging on to, sitting petulantly on the ground as he did and whimpering. I guess I was relieved to hear what Louise said. Zacks' feelings up to this point cut the weir and made him cry all at once.
