Possessing Nothing

377.89. Coming soon (2)

Gries catches the case.

Gries' owner doesn't see it, even if he's not there himself. I can see what's happening in the world and what's happening through Griess.

However, it is a story of a lifetime.

Like Abel, Lloyd didn't have much sense of longevity either.

The magic that underpins Lloyd, the golden steed, was learned from Envirus.

But now Lloyd was influenced by Abel, who spent so little time as he could not even compare to Suzuran Envirus.

After Abel, Lloyd, who became the master of Gries, has been using Gries' magic for a lifetime, ever since he had Gries.

“Tomorrow night, at the latest. ”

Lloyd opens his mouth. He touches Griess on his knees with his fingertips. Gries roars and glows.

“Tomorrow night, the Queen of Spirits will come to these woods. ”

“But thank God. We can aim for the moment of our descent. ”

Scarlet mutters, looking down at his gloves. Just as Rubia said, the Spirit King or the queen above them was weakest shortly after coming.

Even if they are powerful, the power of the monarch over spirits is determined to be the gathering of spirits under their control.

There are very few spirits who rule immediately after coming, so I can't give all my strength.

“It might be more fun to be in full swing. ”

“Don't bullshit me. ”

The spearer grunts, grumbling and expressing a grudge that he doesn't want to hear. Then the Chang Wang raised his eyes and shouted at the Black Dragon Coffin.

“When will you fight the spiritual queen in your life? ”

“Why don't you die and fight the great king? ”

“One day you'll be able to fight Sallah if you die. But since she's still alive, we should fight the Spirit Queen as well. ”

Of course, Seong-min did not intend to listen to Chang Wang's oppression. Everyone did it, not just Lee Sung-min.

Lee Sung-min felt a little sad that Yana hadn't come back yet.

Yana's power would be a great help in the battle against the Spirit Queen, but she hasn't returned from the spirit spirit yet.

[I can't help it.]

Heju mutters.

Ten days have passed since Jana left. After the ritual at the Spirit Spirit, I received a signal from the bracelet and decided to go to the senior group and bring Yana.

After ten days, the bracelet still hasn't sent a signal. Actually, Jana was not later than expected.

In the beginning, she said it would take a full day to get back from work at the Spirit Spirit Spirit.

Things just changed.

That's all. It's time for the Queen of Spirits to come. Jana went to the spirit spirit because of the ritual.

The group of predators leading Geniella is strangely confused. Rather, it was a relief for Lee Sung-min.

If we don't find her, Jennifer, who was taken from Eine, won't go rogue.

I managed to buy time somehow, as Lee Sung-min had hoped.

Can I not care about the forest?]

"I have to trust Teresa and Osla. ’

Theresa and Aine remain in the Fairy Forest. Eine had a seizure and ran mad, and Osla was always forced to suppress him with his powers.

Teresa volunteered to stay in the woods. After learning that the Forest of the Fairies had become a fierce battlefield with Xeniella, Teresa was wandering around the forest for several days building a barrier.

“There's no going back. ”

Lloyd warned you.

“It's only a matter of time before we summon the Queen of Spirits back to the spirit system. As long as the queen intends to destroy this world, she will come to the world again and bring an end to it. ”

Being summoned to the spirit system is not a penalty for a queen. Rather, the queen will come prepared for the next coming.

In fact, this was my first and last chance. Ji Ho-yeon invaded the spirit system with all her might, and the queen rushed in and tried to come down.

Thanks to this, the Queen's wish was that the complete rain would not come. He did not bring the spirits, and the Spirit Kings vanished and the rest were summoned.

“The power of the Spirit Kings cannot come directly to this world. If the Queen is gone... There will be no danger of the Spirit Realm. ”

Rubia in Lee Sung-min's arms growls and makes a sound. The problem is how.

How to extinguish, not reverse summon.

The first thing I could think of was predation. Just as Aine devoured the entire Spirit of Flame King, Seongmin also devoured the Spirit Queen.

“It's too dangerous. ”

Scarlet warns you.

“That crazy kid and you are different from the way the body works. In the first place, the boy's body was not a body. ”

Scarlet and Lloyd explored the fallen Eine.

“You'll explode if you feast on something as big as the Queen of Spirits. If you want to commit spectacular suicide, I won't stop you. ”

I have always thought of it as a way. Lee Seong-min touched the spear next to him.

I would like to try something else. Ultimate herb, the last herb of the Nine Heavenly Palace.

Skill that won or lost the battle against the Hematopods. The hematoma, who was a powerful vampire, could not regenerate the wound. Hematoma was surprised at the wound's inability to regenerate.

‘Neither do I, but the Queen of Spirits is transcendent. ’

I think of what Osla said before I came here.

‘Physically killing a transcendent... is impossible. Since the beginning, we have become transcendent, gaining a near-perfect immortality. ’

As she was approaching the Fall of Spirits Queen, Osla said this bitterly to all who were heading to the sleeping forest.

‘Your attack is impossible to destroy the flesh of the transcendent, but it is impossible to kill existence. So we resurrect endlessly. Especially Sarahenne. She's a transcendent and spiritual queen. All spirits are connected to the spirit system based on their existence. At worst, Sarahenne could flee to the Spirit Realm. ’

But there is no immortality.

‘Our immortality is close, but not complete. Repeated resurrection consumes our power. And if it's gone, it's impossible for us to resurrect. There is also a way... to seal it. If you are sealed with enough weakness, even the Transcendent must be sealed. ’

I have prepared several ways The group is Lloyd and Scarlet. They were close to the pinnacle in the field of magic, although their lineage was different.

Judging by Lee Sung-min's judgment or three rumors, they were the best working wizards.

There was nothing lacking in magic, as long as they were assisted. Even if the prerequisite is to create a sufficiently weakened state.

This was the best I could do right now. A magical power made up of Scarlet and Lloyd.

They will seal the Queen of Spirits if the situation permits, focusing on ranged magic.

In fact, sealing was not a very safe way, but it is better to bind and seal this world than to summon it back to the spirit system.

And you and Black Dragon Cove, Chang Wang, White Soho. The four will fight directly against the Queen of Spirits.

Do not recall the attack too heavily. The goal has always been to seal, and if possible seek extinction.

‘Maybe it's possible if it's not too dramatic. ’

The hematoma was unable to regenerate a nonpolar wound. The Spear of Tragedy might even work on the Queen of Spirits.

The Chang Wang's spear, which was successful at reproducing the technique of philanthropy at the very least for a moment, might add power to the finishing of the Spirit Queen.

I don't know

Yes, Lee Sung-min doesn't know what will happen. I'm not sure of anything.

I have prepared as much as I can, but I am not sure I will.

Maybe we will lose miserably without any prey being eaten.

After that? Maybe, I'll die. Even if I succeed in running without dying... I honestly don't know.

If you attack the Queen right after the descent with this much readiness, and you fail, you will not be able to win against the Queen who grows stronger over time.

In anxiety, Lee Sung-min closed her eyes. I felt like I could calm my shaky chest.

No, "can" was not enough. I had to. If you do not cut off the Spirit Queen here, the story will not proceed.

If we lose here, the world is doomed. The Queen of Spirits or Jennifer will destroy the world completely.

Atheism...... What is Atheism doing? What is the spirit that uses godlessness as a long term word?

Can I trust witches? These uncertain questions. Does this behavior mean anything to you? That nervousness. Fear of being indescribable.

But you can't run away.

What is she doing right now?

This forest, another space across this space. In a space that can never be entered from this side, Ji Ho-yeon is fighting alone.

Killing sealed monsters in these forests, they are cleaning up until the monster ‘Tom’, who is crouching in the deepest depths, wakes up.

It has been ten days since Wiji Hoyen has been isolated in that space. I've been to this forest several times since then, but I haven't seen Wijihoen.

With the help of Scarlet and Lloyd, I have sought to locate her and try to find a way to interfere over here, but even that is impossible.

I believe in him. He can't be dead. He's still alive, doing what he can.

It reminds me of the sagging shoulders of Wiji Hoyen, not Iron Man. and the tremor of his voice muttering that he couldn't do it.

When he turned around to hide his face, what was he looking at?

What was twitching in the dark that you couldn't see from this side? The look I felt when I came into the forest...

At that time, Ji Ho-yeon, who didn't turn her back and show her face, could have been making a face.

What was she like, wandering alone for 10 years and stopping the apocalypse by herself?

I said "for you."

Lee Sung-min pressed his chest with his hand. That was it. Ji Ho-yeon did this for Lee's sake.

I asked him to believe me.

I can do it for you.

“You're faster than I expected. ”

Lloyd mutters.

The dawn is rising. Lee Sung-min quietly got up. Lloyd holds Griess in one hand, lifting himself in the air and pulls back.

Scarlet also snaps his neck, wearing gloves. While keeping her eyes closed, Saxogo looked at her shoulder with a bitter look on her face.

I wanted to reach out and knock. No, I wanted to hug you. But I couldn't.

‘Why……? ’

I felt that I shouldn't do that.

Although I did not like the situation, Chang Wang was no longer stubborn.

I knew he would understand this situation, even if he was stuck. Of course, it wasn't that I didn't want to fight bravely.

I was still trying to figure out what was most important.

“Don't be a dick. ”

“No, you son of a bitch. ”

The Black Dragon Cove gives you a warning while gazing at such a spear, and the spear frowns and growls.

“Th-this... is so... strong... ”

Rubia sighs and mutters. She became a Scarlet's servant and betrayed the Queen of Spirits completely, but she was the creator of Rubia.

That's why Rubia was unable to cheer for Lee Sung-min and his colleagues.

“You just have to stay put. ”

Lee looked up at the sky while mumbling like that.

[There you are.]

Lost my job.

The crack in the rising sky spreads. A crack in the crack splits open.

A bright light flows through the cracks. At that moment, the light was clear and inflated. The flashing burst of light gathered together in one spot.

The Queen of Spirits stands tall and looks down. It was not the aftermath of a heavy rainfall.

I wasn't very tired. Even though she broke through the gaps in space and the complex maze and barely came out, she felt frustrated that she had spent more time on useless things than her fatigue.

“…… What are you? ”

The queen asked.

Lee Sung-min acted without answering.
