Sairin Yuusha no Fukushuu Hanashi

Episode VIII: What I Wanted to Do

He had to be a hero.

That's why I was in the way.

It's called a "hero," the man.

- "Hero Amatsu."

"... what's that look like?"

To my question, Rejuvenated Luisas scoffed.

"I can also use Meihe. You know what I mean?"

…………

I didn't have to ask, I understood.

This feeling, unlike normal sorcery, seeps out of the deep.

"... mind magic"

"Ah, you're right. I've never used it before, but this one is fine. I feel great."

Luisas is pounding and finger bones in an upbeat mood, turning his shoulders.

The look of ridicule is definitely thirty years old.

Did the use of mental magic rejuvenate you until your twenties?

I know because I know thirty years ago, which would be his whole season.

The amount of magic he's got right now is equal to the full season.

When we first met in Royal Castle, Lewsas had all of his physical abilities, magic, skill and combat abilities waning.

But I don't feel any fading from him right now.

There is no change in the outfit and the wand you have.

The "Testimony of the Brave" was inscribed, there was no change in my right arm either.

What changed was the appearance and the amount of magic you enclose.

I mean, this guy's mind magic...

"The power to bring your abilities back to full season."

"Your answer. Sasu is a hero, Amatsu. You understand fast."

I smile at my mouth and admit it, Luisas, but there's an abomination in my eyes that I can't even hide.

The appearance will change, but they haven't changed their sexual roots.

I get revulsion. I can't help but pass the mockery I saw at Demon King's Castle.

The old face was also irritating, but seeing what it looked like thirty years ago is nauseating enough.

"I see. I laughed when I heard" The most powerful sorcerer of humans "etc... but you have a lot of magic power for humans today"

"... I've had a hard time. It's the only way to regain all this magic."

Luisas snorts at the rating given by Elfi, who sees the amount of magic in the demonic eye.

Luisas grinned as she was drawn, lifting her disturbed red hair.

You're feeling stronger using mental magic, that's an unpleasant attitude you can afford.

"I can't move my body as much as I think because of the wound Dionis caused me. Old age makes it impossible to handle witchcraft well year after year. Besides, because of the Reaper scumbag, the magic talent that remained withered."

Reaper - Again, Elfi's reading was a hit.

It was Reaper who taught Lewsas to "bury for cause and effect".

But I don't see a friendly attitude toward Reaper from that tone.

Did you even make a mistake?

"- So I've been looking for you. How can I regain my power?"

Lewsas stepped on Harold's body rolling on the ground, snapping his throat.

Dead bodies are crumbling unbroken with gushing noises.

Without the wind that stopped him from caring, Lewsas continued to trample Harold's body.

"Along the way, there was a concept. With the" Testimony of the Brave "and the Labyrinth Nucleus, I can exercise great sorcery even with the withered of magic. What was missing was the hatred in me."

…………

"Thanks to Mei Ye's resurrection, we have all the last pieces. Thank you, Amatsu. Thanks to Mei Ye's foot kick, I was finally able to shape my mind (blemishes). Wow!"

Words, on the back, shouted furiously, and Lewsas waved his wand.

Moments, the sound of broken glass echoes into the labyrinth.

The "Absolute Legion" that covered the room vanished.

I felt the bounty of the junction disappear and my body heavier.

Lewsas probably feels the restraint has disappeared and his body has become lighter on the contrary.

"Later, Amazu. I can use this power completely if I get another Testimony of the Brave."

"So what are you going to do? No way, are you really even gonna be a hero?

"- Oh, yeah. I kill Orteguia with this hand, and now it's time to be a hero."

... What did you just say to this guy?

Is Lewsas gonna be a hero?

"Ha... ha. Ha ha ha ha ha!!"

Oh, it's a masterpiece.

I haven't laughed so much since when.

How much do you care if you make me uncomfortable?

"... hey. Don't make me laugh, Luisas. I told you before. You can only use someone else's life. You don't say" hero. "

"Ha, Sama, the hero of the real thing, has something different to say. Ah, it's good, it's good. Because he's saying such a nice thing, and he was betrayed and died like garbage, huh?

――――

- Absolutely, the sweetness of this dish is repulsive.

- Well, that's how I was able to drop your arm, huh?

- So far. Oh, I've already used you, brave man.

"Don't deal with me, Io. You don't have to lend your ear to fool's bullshit."

"... I know"

"... would be nice"

Whatever you say, whatever you do.

Because your end of the line has already been decided.

"I'm interrupted, shall we resume?"

While assembling the tactics, turn to Lewsas.

"Revenge."

"Ah, let's go on."

Flip the robe, Lewsas said.

"-My revenge."

Luisas is strong.

As a magician, it's the strongest level.

I won't deny that. I'll admit it.

But only as a magician.

His prowess in melee combat was the weakest of his former parties.

With some exceptions, it takes time to use powerful magic.

If you beat me before they use magic, that's it.

"- But you're thinking, aren't you?

At the same time as the opening, a darker breeze blew out of Lewsas' body.

The wind surrounded the room, blocking our sight.

"" Whirlwind! "

I blow the wind and make Luisas look whole naked.

What were you thinking, Lewsas hadn't moved a step from the spot.

I have a bad feeling.

"-" Devil's Eye/Ashes Explosion ""

It was the moment Elfi shot the demon in the eye without letting his hair in.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic)/Disaster Burial Flame ""

From Luzas, the flames of the Red Lotus erupted.

Demonic eyes and magic intersect, and the light of the Red Lotus covers the indoors.

Flames and blasts, mutual antagonism collapsed in an instant.

"Hey, hey..."

The flames of Lewsas swallowed up the ashes and came upon us as a bigger flame.

"Ashes explosion shot and lost...?

"No. That flame, it's eating magic...!

The remnants of the magic vegetables that drifted slightly indoors were seen swallowed by the flames.

Each time, the flames increase in size.

"-" Magic Taunt (Sperdibaua) "!"

Take the magic away from the flames and diminish their momentum.

It was shortly after I lit a flame that had gotten smaller.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic) - Dance Shadow Shock ""

A black pile jumped out of my shadow.

Cut with a soft sword and move to a shadowless place.

Elfi also plays the shadow with his demonic arm and likewise takes distance from the shadow.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic) - Black Fairy Bullet ""

――――

Dozens of bullets were covering their sights the moment they turned toward Lewsas.

"Loss magic, without chanting -"

Preventing it with "Demon Destruction Seizure (Il Atalaxia)," but about ten bullets prevented it, there was a hole in the shield.

Do you have the power to punch holes in this bullet, in the objects you touch?

Through the shield hole, bullets come in like rain.

Dodging in a different direction from Elfi is inevitable.

"-" Demon Eye/Heavy Crushing ""

Elfi knocks all bullets off to the ground with his demonic eye and outsmarts the bullet.

A dropped bullet wore countless holes in the ground.

"Ahhh!? Dude, what's wrong with you guys? How long have you been struggling with magician style in the melee?

...... yummy.

I am completely turned to take it.

He couldn't have done a whole series of lost magic without chanting.

Lewsas whispers something and waves his wand.

I immediately figured out what was coming.

"Well, let's go next."

Moment after moment, the figure of Lewsas, who was more than a dozen meters away, scratched out.

――――

Less than a second later, me and Elfi were capturing the disappeared Luzas.

Luisas didn't disappear.

I kicked the ground hard and just ran out.

It was just a rate far beyond the assumptions.

Luisas ignores me and goes straight to Elphi.

From a few meters away, Lewsas was approaching Elfi's eyes in a second.

I'm just saying I'm surprised because I'm a sorcerer (Lewsas) opponent, though at a rate that goes beyond my assumptions.

It's not like I can't handle it.

"Demon Arm -"

With a slight eye opening, Elfi also tried to react.

Perfect timing, dealing with magic wrapped around my arms.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic)/Disaster Burial Flame ""

Trying to join him there, Lewsas only pointed his arm at this way and has set off a flame.

Immediately prevent fire with Magic Takeover.

During that moment, Luisas was exercising a different sorcery.

"but fu-"

"Elfi!"

Elfi was eating magic on his head and blowing it away.

gobbling and rolling down the ground without even being able to take a passive.

Stupid.

With that distance and timing, Lewsas would have definitely eaten "Demon Arm".

"Hey, you okay!

"Ugh... ku"

Yo, yo, yo, yo, Elfi got up.

"Wow, you weren't a normal demon."

The moment Lewsas waved his wand, a white sphere enveloped Elphi.

Soon the sphere vanished, but Elfi, who was about to rise, kneels to the ground without force.

"Ha... Ha..."

"... in addition to the magic of loss, are you still conscious in the quintessential junction? Bakemon, dude."

I knew immediately what Elfi had done.

A seal was fired directly into the body.

On top of that, his whole body is tied up in a junction.

Regardless of the outer junction, it is a fairly powerful sorcery that was shot inside.

Magic Takeover cannot be disarmed.

The only way to solve it is to solve it in the tunnel, which will take time to disarm it.

And naturally,

"I don't have time to worry about my people, Amatsu."

Lewsas won't allow it.

A flame ran between Elfi and me, and they split up.

"... chip"

No matter how much elphi, you won't be able to move as soon as they shoot all that magic in.

I don't know how much magic he's capable of unlocking without taking long enough...

"You seem surprised? Thirty years ago, I wasn't that strong?

Luisas is disturbing his breathing, but he still seems to be able to afford it.

At this rate, you can't expect to lose your magic.

"I told you. He said I was going to kill Orteguia. I've been doing research for that for thirty years. Efficient witchcraft, witchcraft from other countries, mindset witchcraft, and loss witchcraft - you can't lose if you're dealing with them."

Are you saying that magic that could not be used by fading can be used by being rejuvenated by mindset magic?

Just to kill Orteguia, his combat abilities are outnumbered thirty years ago.

But it's not so much about unexpected -

I assumed this guy would bring some kind of back hand.

"- [Hero Reproduction (The Raise)]"

Let me use your wife's hand, too.

The world lost its colour and stood still at the same time.

I could see my former back in a noisy, messy world.

Reaching for its back, I recreated my former hero (Jibu).

...... not doing very well.

There is a feeling that mental magic is unraveling a little bit.

Yes, about three minutes.

"... you're here"

Eliminates and stares at the grin that Lewsas had on his face.

Critical, I even heard a toothpick.

"... it's mind magic to regain the power of a hero. Ha, ha, ha, ha. What if it's untrained?"

――――

"Fuck you. It's your mind, dude. That's what I'm talking about.

One step, I took it.

The distance, which was nearly ten meters, disappears.

To Luisas' nostalgia, I was diving in for a moment.

And I do it faster than Lewsas responds, scraping the meat off his flank with a jade machete.

"Ohhhh!?"

a second blow toward screaming Luzas, but

"" Quadruple acceleration (Axel Quattro) "Wow!!"

Rapidly accelerating, Lewsas dodged while spraying blood from the wound.

I see.

Was the earlier high-speed travel using acceleration?

"but what the fuck...!!"

Acceleration puts a load on the body.

Even with double acceleration, some users can crush bones all over the body.

If the magician uses a quadruple acceleration or something, I'm naturally sorry.

"Ohhhh..."

With the current leap, both Lewsas' legs were broken into gucha gucha.

Blood is gushing out, crushed bones sticking out meat.

"" High healing "- Huh!!"

Luzas used instant healing magic to heal his flank and both legs.

But there's no way I'm gonna miss that gap.

I stepped in to pack the time again.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic) - Dance Shadow Shock "Huh"

The pile protrudes from the shadow at my feet, but I wrap my magic around my feet and step to pieces.

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic) - Blackhui Wearing Bullets "!"

Thirty or more pitch-black bullets expand into sight, but consume all magic with "Magic Takeover".

"Don't come!!"

While retreating, Lewsas has shot massive amounts of witchcraft.

Crush the rock giant who appeared with a single knife.

Double-cut a giant tentacle knitted at the roots of a tree.

Erase the falling ice cubes and squeeze the spear of thunder.

While doing so, Lewsas was pushed to the wall.

――――

Playing magic that flies like rain, check for traps.

The trap that was embedded in the aisle was choosen from the ground to ground with a flash of jade machete.

"Meh...!

I was in a hurry for the look on Luisas's face.

But there's no escape.

"" Lost Sorcery/Disaster Burial Flame "- Huh!!"

Luisas waved his wand and sprayed a flame.

Were you adding or subtracting until now, much larger than earlier?

"Second Ghost Sword -" Good Split ""

Cut open the sight swallowing Red Lotus with a ghost sword.

Greater in scale, but with magic that the flames just can't eat up, it's easy to deal with.

"Hey, hey."

Lewsas leaves later with a startled look on his face.

My back hits the wall and that look blues.

"... first of all its disgusting right arm"

"Ma, wait -"

I swung down the jade knife from the upper stage and slashed off Lewsas' right arm -.

――――

Zuluri, and.

That was a strange response.

There was a hit on something, but it was as if it slipped through...

I could see Luisas smiling.

I jump out of the way,

"" Lost Magic/Fluid Occlusion ""

"Huh."

I couldn't help but feel the back of my right arm pierced by something.

No pain, no trauma.

But...

"... ugh."

The magic supply from The Testimony of the Brave is gone.

The part to use magic is completely blocked.

The moment I realized that, my mind magic was completely unlocked.

The same sorcery that Elfi was shot into...

"Oops. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!"

Lewsas laughs as he spits a lot of blood out of his mouth.

The blade that should have been slashed is connected.

I saw a slight cut, but that's all.

"" Lost sorcery/divergence of the underworld "- sorcery that moves entities elsewhere... Ah, the magic taught by Reaper has finally helped."

From a distance, okay.

Lewsas' body is slightly clear.

"... but twice is the limit. Don't overload me, damn it."

Pale in the face, Luisas has vomited blood many times.

It was that sorcery that dodged Elfi's demonic arm...

The "Testimony of the Brave" is closed even as he tries to unlock the sorcery that was shot into his arm.

I can't manipulate the magic to disarm it.

The only thing that could defeat this sorcery is mindset sorcery...

"Kuku, kuhahaha! What's the matter, Amatsuki? You don't use good mindset magic?

…………

I can't activate mindset magic.

From the very beginning, I wasn't feeling well.

It wasn't activated as well as it did in the battle with Dionys or in the Spiritual Mountains.

"I know, man. You can't use it, can you? Because the Mindset Magic is incomplete. You can't keep activating it, can you?

"... ugh."

"You're right about the scenario, Amatsu. And the devil tribe, and the testimony of the brave. If we could just do something about those two, we would have beaten them from the start."

As Lewsas waved his wand, a bullet of wind was swept away.

flush with a jade knife, and overdo the bullet, too,

"-" Loss Magic (Lost Magic) - Dance Shadow Shock ""

Piles that came out of the ground pierced my thighs.

"Kuh."

I can't stand any longer and fall to the ground.

instantly reach for the porch and try to drink the potion for recovery, but

"Let it be."

"Huh."

The magic of Lewsas blew the potion away.

The container crumbles and the contents stain the ground.

――――

What shall we do?

You want to use a spare demon stone?

I can't. If I don't have the magic to handle it, I can't use the Demon Stone.

Handheld magic grants (magic items) cannot be handled without magic.

There are other tricks besides "demonic stripping," but this can't be activated without magic either.

No, the trick is broken at the same time that the "Absolute King's Realm" is destroyed in the first place.

Look at the gap and use the potion?

... No.

Even if you can cure it, you can't beat Luisas if you can't use magic.

Elfi can't move yet.

Untie the line, it'll still take five minutes.

I only have one hand left.

But this is...

"... no hitter, Amatsu?

Luisas wins proudly.

"... I've been waiting for this time. I can screw him down and crush him."

Sorcery flies.

"I'm gonna kill you."

I couldn't do it, and all I could do was get shot through by magic.

The bones in both arms were crushed and his legs twisted in the opposite direction.

Ice cubes plunge into his abdomen, blood pressing up to his throat.

My forehead was cracked and my left eye vision was stained red because of the blood flowing.

"Oops...... fu"

Thanks to the defense of "Red Lotus Armor," no fatal injuries have been sustained.

One of the reasons why Luisas is waving at me is because of me.

"Ha ha!! You look good, huh? You're a man now, Amatsuki."

A strong wind occurs and the body is fluttered and lifted.

Shortly afterwards, he was slapped from his back to the ground.

Breathing stops and the taste of iron spreads in your mouth.

Left me, the last hand.

It's about finding clear trigger conditions for mindset magic.

I thought that condition was, "Fight the opponent you can't win right now."

You can't win with the power of vegetables, you can't defeat them, you can't kill them all.

It was on such occasions that mindset magic could ever be used.

But then the conditions must have been fulfilled.

I can't beat Luisas right now.

Even so, mindset magic wasn't activated well.

There's got to be something else.

Desperately spin your thoughts.

It's not about fighting a strong opponent, it's about me putting my life in danger...?

But at this stage, he's pretty much cut off his strength.

Even in this situation, isn't it enough...?

"Oh, my God."

"but ha."

A rock bullet swept through his cheek, choosing meat.

Intensely painful, thoughts stop for a moment.

"Hey, man. Weren't you supposed to kill me? Go ahead, kill him."

"Oh."

A blade of wind slashed and tore his shoulder.

He has a burning fever.

"How do you feel? The Royal Castle and the Naraya Labyrinth, both of whom waved as hard as they wanted, don't feel flabbergasted."

"... ugh."

"I'm in the highest mood, Amatsu. I hated it as much as I was nauseous, because I could finally kill a scumbag."

While mocking me, Lewsas is not at all alarmed.

Keep a certain distance and don't come close.

"Hey, say something. Not even a life begging dialogue?

"There is... so you don't"

"Ha. Then I'll make sure you want to tell me. Eye choices, nose sharpening, lip ripping, skin peeling, balls crushing... that's all you have to say, but you're gonna want to say something."

In the hands of Luisas, a blade of wind is born.

――――

Even in this situation, I can't use elephant magic.

Still not enough?

No. As it is, I'll be killed before I use it.

No, no way.

Isn't this a trigger condition too...?

"Oh, eat it."

It was just before Luisas tried to unleash the blade of the wind.

"... don't"

That's when Elfi stood up.

We have lifted the quintessential bond.

But the magic that was shot into his body still didn't seem to be able to disarm him.

It's flirty and pale.

"... Speaking of which, there was still a demon clan"

The moment I saw Elfi.

There was an ugly grin on Luisas' face.

"Hey, Amatsu. What would you look like if I killed him?

――――

"Don't you see? Don't worry, I'll answer you right now."

Loss magic is unleashed on Elphi.

Elphi to deal with with with the demonic eye, but he didn't have the usual half the power.

Unpreventable by the Devil's Eye, the "Black Glow Bullet" shot through Elfi's stomach.

"Gu...... uhh"

"... don't you die. Big life force."

"I won't let you kill Io."

"Heh. Then I'll kill you first."

The magic of Lewsas chops and chops Elphi.

"Ha... hey"

"Stop... Ro"

"Nah, Amatsu. Is this demon tribe important?

Louisas turned to his face as he shook Elfi.

"Are you in love with this demon clan?

…………

"You were in love with Lucifina, weren't you? All I can say is congratulations on being so badly betrayed and still favoring others."

No, it's not.

Me and this guy, we don't have that kind of relationship.

"Well... thank you for that congratulatory head. Because that's what makes you desperate."

Lewsas pointed his wand at Elphi.

Elfi intercepts.

"Don't lick......!

It releases a demonic eye, but it doesn't reach Lewsas.

I use the demon arm, but my arm is torn without enough magic.

He was pierced by a pile protruding from the shadows in an attempt to move with demonic legs.

"Kahu..."

"Will it be over?"

"Stop... ugh"

Lewsas activated the Blackbright Bullet.

"Demon Eye -"

Flirting, Elfi tries to shoot the demon eye again -,

"El -"

Faster than that, a black bullet pierced Elfi's right eye.

The bullet went straight through the back of his head.

Doshari, and Elfi sink into the ground.

From an empty hole in his right eye, there is dope and a lot of blood.

A black dress stained her own bloodshed.

The torso is what Elphi created.

Being drilled doesn't make you dead.

But his face is different.

The face is Elfi's biological flesh.

If I could drill a hole in that place......

"El...... fi"

"Ha... Ha ha ha!!"

Inside the quiet room, the laughter of Lewsas echoes.

"Hey, I'm gonna ask you again, Amatsu! How do you feel now?!?"

――――

"Instead of being shaken by a hated opponent, kill your precious companion. Wow!? Yep!?"

………

"Nice face, Amatu."

Lewsas is laughing with his belly in the wind of fun and embarrassment.

"That pocan look when you betrayed Mei at the Demon King's Castle. You look just like that nowadays. haha...... kukuku. Oh, I can't stop laughing."

"Lew...... zas"

"Compared to when you were betrayed? Ah? I'm asking you what it feels like to be deprived of someone you care about!!"

A storm blows and your body is lifted.

As it were, I was blown to the point of Elfi sinking in blood.

Making a sound of beshari, he falls into a blood buildup flowing from the elphi.

"Elfi......"

Elfi's falling right next door.

Silver hair was shaking in the blood.

"How do you feel about seeing your loved one's body up close?

…………

"You don't have time for sentimentality, do you? Next time, Amatsu."

- Kill me.

There is no fear.

But I can't accept it.

Do you accept such an end?

I can put my strength into my arms in an attempt to recreate what I once was.

――――

But mindset magic doesn't work.

Nothing, didn't happen.

"First of all, I'm gonna choke your eyes."

Lewsas is trying to unleash magic...

"... Yes, Vagina"

Along with his fine voice, he was pulled on the hem.

"... ah?

Elfi whines as she lays down depressed.

"Thoughts... no"

"El, fi"

"What did you want..."

Hardly, the fine words came into my ear.

What did I want to...?

"... chip. He's a bastard. I'll burn you to death."

"Catastrophic burial flame," Luisas said.

A red lotus flame is born, bringing sickles like snakes.

By "Red Lotus Armor," I would not die if I had strong resistance to the flames.

But Elfi...

"No... Vagina"

――――

- A little, I'm glad.

- I'm glad you're trusting me.

"... ah"

I see.

You did.

I'm an idiot.

What was I thinking when I first used mindset magic?

What did I think when I used elephant magic in Spirit Mountain?

What did I want to do when I used elephant magic in my fight against Olga?

It was all the same.

From the beginning, there was only one thing in my mind.

What bothered you?

When mental magic could be used.

Always, I am.

- I wanted to help.

Eat this flame, Elfi dies.

I don't like that.

I want to help Elfi.

Grab a fist and mouth its mind (Rigi).

"- [Hero Reproduction (The Raise)]"

The magic that was embedded in my body smashed.

From The Testimony of the Brave, hot things overflow.

The world was swallowed by noise and the impending flame movement slowed.

In the gray world, in front of you stands a "hero (me).

Just that back.

It just looked a little bit closer than before.

"" Devil's Destruction Seizure (Il Atalaxia) ""

Before my eyes, I created a shield.

A flame tries to eat magic, but on the contrary, the magic of flames is shredded.

The original "demonic blockade" is a shield that cuts and seals the magic of the objects it touches.

Cure your body with healing and turn to Elphi.

I held Elfi, who was sinking in a blood build-up, and carried him to the back of the room.

"... thanks, Elfi"

Same as in Dionys.

Again, you saved me.

"... fu"

Elfi's mouth seemed slightly loose.

"" High healing ""

Heal Elphi's wounds with healing magic.

And I also crushed the magic in my body.

The hollow right eye also heals slowly.

... Good.

It has a high life force, and it's really good.

To the boulder, you won't be able to move quickly with this injury, but you shouldn't be dying.

"... wait for me"

Put Elfi down and go back to the center of the room.

"... what the hell, dude"

Lewsas was opening his eyes.

"What the hell, dude!! Crush both hands and feet, and hold down the magic supply... still, you're not getting enough!!"

Wana Wana and I are shaking my body, spitting and screaming.

Ignoring that cry, I exercised witchcraft.

"-" Prison Flame (Gehenna) ""

At the same time, pack an intermission with Lewsas.

To Luisas, who tried to escape, he sprinkled a pale flame.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!?"

Burned all over his body, Luisas screams.

"You said that earlier. Kill him."

"but ahhhh"

Tell the stuffy and distressed Luisas.

"... I'll kill you, as you wish."
