Shortly after we started...

"Guh......!

"Bu, blance player duh! Suddenly he busted me. Ah!

Exactly the speed of light.

The moment Cosmo disappears, Blance's body dances through the universe.

But Brance had guarded his face with both hands beforehand, preventing that direct hit with a single piece of paper.

Nevertheless, the attack was not visible, it merely left the defense of the abdomen to the armor and protected the face that was exposed.

"Iggy!?

Shortly after he was blown backwards and both legs reached the ground, now a shock runs on his back.

It was also during the bundle that I was about to fall at the front, as I was forced to wake it, the fist of the speed of light was tapped into his abdomen.

"Koh... stay invisible to Cosmo players! Blance's body bounces over and over again. Ugh!

'This is... tough'

A continuous attack of light speed that doesn't even give you a gap to regain your posture.

Though Blance was thorough in his defense and managed to withstand it, his body definitely accumulates damage.

I know I'm jilli poor as it is, but even as I turned to counterattack, the moment I felt I had eaten, the next attack was piercing him and driving me into a situation where I couldn't even see the thread of counterattack in an instant.

"Ko, stay like this...!

"... weird"

Words of doubt were leaking out of Lord's mouth watching it.

"What? Oh, that's crazy... what is it?

"Mr. Blance is now... definitely a pinch"

"No, you can't! I still don't see it at all! But heh! There's a tremendous shock sound and the shaking of Blance's body...... he's eloquently telling the power of Cosmo. Duh!

"Well, if that's all they did... ah..."

"Yes... it's a pinch... but the magic isn't activated"

Lord was right, Brance was now in a predicament.

Though defensive, the power of Cosmo's attacks is unusual.

Striking in with tremendous speed, it was gently piercing Brance's defense and causing deep damage to his body.

The body, which has already continued to be attacked, is screaming and there is a constant metal noise in its head.

Furthermore, the bones were twitching, the knees laughing, and the defensive arms were no longer powered.

You can't even fight back, just stand there and make the best of it.

A regular person would have already finished...... rather than being in a difficult situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is already a place of death.

But...

"It's not enough... maybe"

"Ha, not enough?

"From what I've heard," courage magic "is the spirit of Mr. Blance, or the magic that depends considerably on his thoughts. In the first round, Mr. Apple might come if he won this... I think he still had that feeling. But in the end... Mr. Apple didn't come"

"... you mean you gave up?

"Yeah...... guess what, in a true sense." Doesn't matter. "I think Mr. Blance has even forgotten what he's fighting for. So that stray is stopping the magic from activating. Even without Mr. Apple, there are only so many people who have to show that power..."

Lord's guess was that almost everything was hit.

If I may add, there are two conditions for the activation of courage magic.

One, as Brance had repeatedly said, when he recognized himself as in distress.

And the other is the magical backbone that Blance himself doesn't even firmly recognize.

In other words, it is the source of his courage...... his thoughts on Apple.

Now Blance was losing faith in Apple.

What thoughts do you stand here and fight for yourself?

She even refuses to come to this place if she understands it.

It was, above all, an intolerable ordeal for him.

Negative feelings for Apple, which had sprouted slightly in the depths of his mind, were to blame for the activation of courage magic.

"Well, let's not stay like this..."

"Unless the magic is activated... Mr. Blance can't win"

"Ugh...!

Lord takes out the communication demon stone he had missed and squeezes it hard.

That's how I tried to magic-

"Ugh!?

"Ahh!"

It was then.

―――――――――――――――――――――

"Ha ha ha ha ha, why...!

Unactivated magic forces Blance to rush.

Definitely a predicament.

Conditions should have been in place.

But I don't think enough.

Thoughts on Apple, his key Trigger.

"Wha... so, if it is!

Shortly after being attacked from behind, Brance throws away his defense and sticks his right fist forward.

"If you can't use it, you don't need magic".

But Cosmo, who showed up, was hoisting the corner of his mouth at a distance of one thin-skinned piece that didn't hit that thoughtful fist.

"Huh!"

"It's no use."

"Ahhh!?

A kick in the speed of light emitted by Cosmo hits Brance's side head directly and his body dances through the universe again.

Blance was blown up for a few meters, and when he was slammed straight to the ground, he fell into depression without force.

"Clean Hit Wow! To an awesome blow...... Blance is finally down!

"Oh man...... is that still the extent"

When Cosmo threw up like that as if he was frightened, he slowly walked out toward Blance.

"Well, that's what I've known since the beginning. You're a rogue... a fake hero who mistakenly thinks he's powerful."

"Kuh... that's..."

It was Brance who managed to get up, but no longer had enough power left in his hands to just wake up his body.

Still, Blance can help himself desperately to get up.

There are no apples and I no longer know what they're fighting for.

Still, my body was moving on its own.

But...

"Hey!?

"Huh!?

"That's unusual..."

The head, Cosmo stomped without hesitation.

"Come on, admit you lost. That'll end it, won't it? You say... wasted games."

"Oh... hey...!

"And the world will know. The Golden Generation is never the strongest, and our Five Swords Emperor... says he is the true strong one"

"Shit, I don't give a shit..."

"... for you. But for me... it's important!

"Huh!?

Cosmo puts more effort into it and steps on Blance's head.

"You guys up there don't get it! This is how we've been stomped on our heads! So...... I feel great now. Come on! Admit your loss, Bransu! I said I was up there! Spit the word of forgiveness out of that mouth!

I just refused, and if the magic can't be activated, there's no winning chance.

In the first place, I didn't listen to my body anymore.

Furthermore, the audience gave me booing and my sister, who wanted to show up to fight, would not show up.

Loneliness.

Such words rule his heart.

"... also... good"

"Hmm...... what is it? Please be clear."

His world spread thanks to Apple.

It was all on her freedom to be out of the house, to be able to jump out of the country, to the world.

So if she's telling you to stay put, there's no point in fighting anymore.

"Oh, my..."

And so, trying to end here, he said the word--

"Don't lose...... Ohhhhhhhh!!
