"- Come on, things are going to work. Don't miss the time to interfere."

◆

The extreme light of the Devil's Heaven Fallen (Eclipse) swallowed up Lewsas.

Still it doesn't stop, it breaks through the walls of the labyrinth and finally disappears.

I knelt down to the feeling of squeezing out all my magic.

Mindset magic will solve it.

"Ha... ha..."

Done.

I did it. I killed him.

Dionys was followed by a second party member.

He burned his whole body, poisoned him, and slashed him with his sword many times.

With the magic he used to fight me, he should have kept savoring the pain of hell.

It wouldn't have been that long if I hadn't put my hands down by the exercise of magic that didn't suit my height.

Still.

I killed him.

I smashed everything he had prepared, and I killed him.

As one thing, without making him fulfill his purpose.

I crushed everything, everything, everything.

"K...... kuk"

- Meh, that's really guzzling.

"... hehe"

- You can't even do that.

"Ha."

- I don't know what else to do.

"Ha ha."

- I'll help you.

I admired him for a hero, with the power of a hero.

Such irony, too, would not be.

"Hahahahaha!!"

It's refreshing. I feel great.

When have I ever felt so happy?

I can't help but have fun.

Because I am.

"Ha ha..."

It's so funny, I'm here.

…………

Deceive, exploit, betray, kill.

He was a rambling, bumpy, scumbag man.

You betrayed me just for the honor of wanting to be a "hero".

Yes, I thought so. In fact, it was.

I also thought that the presence of my 'sister', which I occasionally uttered during my journey, was all lies.

To make me sympathetic and easier to get in.

I don't know the facts.

Really, maybe he was talking to me to get into it sweet.

His vengeance is nothing but rebellion.

Expect it on your own, resent it on your own, and push yourself to blame for my sister's death.

Good annoyance...... sorry about that. It sucks.

The reason you betrayed me at Demon King's Castle.

It was something completely different from Beltga, Olivia, and Dionys.

I was just painting it on desire, with those guys.

But for whatever reason, it doesn't change that I was murdered.

I don't compromise on revenge.

So I killed him.

So, that's it.

It's over, it should be.

"Iwo"

In Elfi's words, he returned it to me.

The wound that was hit by Lewsas seems to have healed a lot.

Soon, Elfi was coming right next door.

"... are you okay now?

"Oh. I can stand and move now. I have no problem."

The blown part was already on the verge of healing.

I don't seem to have my eyesight back yet, though I keep only one eye closed.

That, too, will heal soon.

"Right. Then let's find your body."

"Iwo"

"We need to get to work early. Not really, staying long..."

"-Io."

It was quiet, but a voice that could not be ignored.

"Sit down. We're gonna get some rest."

"... Still not feeling well?

"It's not me. It's you who rest."

... Me?

"In a hot spring city, just like when you killed that werewolf."

Elfi put his hand on my cheek.

"... you look terrible"

"............... right"

... Oh yeah.

That's the kind of face you might have.

"Do you care about that magician?

Put your hands on your shoulders, Elfi makes me sit on the ground.

Then he asked quietly.

"Regret is, there is no shard"

…………

"Whatever the circumstances, it doesn't change that he betrayed me. Whatever they said, I could never forgive him."

Whatever happened, I had to avenge him.

That's for sure.

"... but just a little, I thought. If only I'd been helped by his sister."

Suppose I was listening to Luisas' plea.

If I'd been willing to fight a little faster.

At the end of the day, I wonder if it didn't happen.

- Don't be complacent, Iori.

In a calm tone, Elfi said so with a pissy tone.

The sight that was floating in the back of my brain mists the words.

"You are not omnipotent. Neither do I. Everyone has something out of their reach. It's arrogance that makes you feel responsible."

"... I am"

Words beyond that don't come out of my mouth.

A golden eye with only one eye looked at me like I could see through.

"Thirty years ago you had no power to fight like you do now. I would have been summoned by a strange world and confused. No one can blame you for that. Io didn't do anything wrong."

"... I know"

I couldn't afford to help anyone then.

Even if they were fighting, they would have been killed without care.

The cry of Lewsas is a total rebellion.

There's nothing bothering me about being killed at the end of it.

"... I know."

Still, there's something you can't say.

Everyone ever betrayed me just for their own desires.

That guy, Luisas, was a little different.

Luisas is trying to avenge me.

... I abandoned his sister.

"Is that guilt?

Quiet, Elfi asks.

Really, they seem to be spotted.

"... I don't know."

I couldn't answer Elfi's question this time.

I don't even know what this emotion is.

"... there are things no one can do. That won't change at any time. Regarding the man's sister, I'm not responsible for Io."

Elfi overlapped words to me without an answer.

"... but"

to unseen emotions, trying to mouth something reflexively,

――――

Elfi's got his hands on Pong and his head.

Gently, softly, fingers are moved.

It wasn't until a while later that I realized I was being stroked...

"... Io, you're so sweet"

"Eh."

"Because that's you... I can still be with you this way"

The former demon king, who spoke so, had a merciful look.

Unexpectedly breathtaking to the word, to the look on its face.

"It's good to care. But don't forget."

on a familiar face, with an unfamiliar look,

- You're not bad.

That's what Elfi said.

Even though I knew it from the inside, I felt accepted something I couldn't swallow.

...... oh.

Really, I'm simple.

... How many times can I help this guy?

"How are you feeling?

"... it's all right now"

It's not like I don't have anything to think about.

I'm not in a pleasant mood.

To my own emotions, I still can't find an answer.

- Still, we can move on.

◆

I drank potion and restored my magic.

After drinking all the potions I had prepared, the magic finally returned to about a third.

The wounds are almost blocked, but this fatigue doesn't help.

"... I wish I had a labyrinth nucleus left"

Unfortunately, the labyrinth nucleus has been used by Lewsas.

You couldn't regain your magic this time.

Well, now that we know the trigger conditions for mindset magic, let's just say it's good.

... I don't know if you want to help.

Then, along with Elfi, we investigate the inside of the room.

Near the entrance, the demonic nucleus of General Thunderdemon, killed by Luisas, had fallen.

It was crushed in the aftermath of the battle, but I'll collect it just in case.

Lewsas had it, my arm had disappeared without a trace.

Eat all that magic, it would be funnier to stay.

I'm in a complicated mood, but now it's impossible to abuse that arm anymore.

I was able to add another keri to the past.

"... Found"

Unexpectedly, that's what Elfi muttered.

Reaching into a space of nothing, Elfi stands up his nails.

Along with the crushing sound, the seal that had been visualized was unsealed.

Suddenly, something fell out of the universe with Burrito.

"It's my body"

It was the torso of a woman covered in black cloth.

I could see a black crest on my complexion peeking from the cloth, just like my hands and feet.

As Elphi tells me, there are no limbs, and a mixed cross section of red and white peeks.

From the beautiful cutting surface, I could see that it was slashed off with a blade.

Lucifina did this.

It will have been sealed here for nearly thirty years now.

Even so, my skin was glossy and I could see the blood was passing through.

"Too bad it's not the heart"

"... that's going to be a pretty grotesque picture surface"

Even now, it is grotesque enough.

Yoo-hoo.

With that said, Elfi shoved his torso against his own body.

The spoon and minute body fell to the floor and the real torso stuck together instead.

The black cloth disappears and the dress covers the torso.

The minute he fell to the ground, his body rolled up and disappeared as it was.

… Is there any more decent way to do it?

"Hmmm... Hmmm..."

Elfi seems to be touching his body with a pet and making sure it's okay.

Convinced said it, snorted loudly after a while.

"How's it going?

"... Sort of. With the torso back, the total amount of magic returned to nearly half of the full season. The healing rate is not the same as just now."

Even if I recover everything except the heart, is it still nearly half?

So much so that the heart was an important area.

No, it's natural.

"Still, the damage done to me by that mage is too much. It was particularly painful to get my eyes blown off"

"Don't you still have your eyesight back?

"Mm-hmm. I can't even use the Devil's Eye, just this one. But with his torso back, he'll be fully recovered in a few hours."

Really, the Demon Clan has a convenient body.

My fatigue is going to take a few days to take.

"No."

When I was feeling Elfi bullshit again, I was peeked in the face along with a weird sound effect.

"Um, you look good. Until now, Itsuki looked like a wet little boy (goblin)."

... Was it that bad?

"Kufu"

Elfi laughs with a mean look, as if she had read my insides.

Usually you're lying to me, but at times like this, you draw my attention.

…………

Elfi said I was the one who could put it together.

Me too, yeah.

I was put together so far because I was an elfi.

... I won't put it in my mouth.

From holes in the ceiling and holes in the wall, the morning sun plugs in.

The Abominable Labyrinth has lost its power and is now bright.

I think I'll be able to walk down the road easily without giving you eye drops on my way home.

Time to go.

That's when I tried to say it.

"Iwo"

"... what's up?

The silver hair unraveled in the battle sparkles in the morning sun.

As I narrowed my eyes to that glare, I wondered how Elfi had changed somewhere.

"... if you were me now, I'm sure"

Elfi opens her mouth as she decides to, showing some troubling bare gesture.

"… Iori. I'm with you..."

At the end of the word, it was never spinned.

The sunlight that was plugged in from the top, shaded.

"- Eh."

――――

Shortly afterwards, from overhead, what poured out of the glow.

Me and Elfi jump off the scene reflexively.

Something poured down on the ground diffused across the room at the same time as it blew up.

"Whirlwind!!"

At the same time I blew it with the wind, some effect appeared that came down.

The movement of "Testimony of the Brave" slows down and the magical appearance weakens.

The same thing seemed to happen to Elfi because of the way he looked at his face.

"Huh."

- From overhead, I heard a voice.

"Hehe."

It was a woman's voice.

Gentle, serene, like a sweet melting of the hearts of those who hear.

"hehe, hehe, hahaha!!"

"Oh, before..."

Vacant in the ceiling, big hole.

From there, one woman was peering into the labyrinth.

It was a half-elf.

Silver eyes with strong blonde habits and a calm impression.

The woman, dressed in a pure white dress, was shaking her shoulders in the wind of ridicule and embarrassment while keeping her mouth down elegantly.

- Lucifina Emilior.

Thirty years ago, the woman who traveled with and betrayed me.

I'm the last party member.

"Ha-ha-ha, oh, I saw the most delightful thing. It's probably been thirty years since you've been so happy."

"Luci, Fina"

"Too much crap farce, heh, heh! I couldn't help but cry."

With tears in her silver eyes, Lucifina shrugs.

It's no different from what I saw thirty years ago.

Calm, gentle... but so malicious on his face that he could not hide it.

"You were so right to miss Mr. Luisas at Demon King Castle then. I've always thought you were a fool, but hehe, I didn't think that was it. A hero? Pfft... for someone like Mr. Lewsas, stupid, childish, outrageous, and pathetic, there's no way you can be from the beginning. Really, you laugh."

Apparently, he was eavesdropping on us from the hole up there.

Not at all, I didn't notice.

"Hehe, hehe!

Looking down at us, Lucifina is tearful.

This is the first time this guy's voice has ever crippled his eclampsia.

I can't help it, it's uncomfortable.

"Hey, Mr. Amatsu. Don't you think? Mr. Lewsas..."

"Shut up."

Release the "flame bullet" toward Lucifina, who has asked as she leans her little neck.

The fiercely ejected flame scratched out before touching Lucifina.

Soon, by the one great sword she was taking out.

"From the conversation you had with Mr. Lewsas... you're Mr. Amatsu, aren't you? I'm surprised you're alive."

After all, he realized that I was an amatsu.

"... properly, I should have killed you"

The mockery disappears from Lucifina's face and turns into a disdainful look.

It was a tone of killing intent, malice, and slight infiltration of anger.

"Long time no see, Lucifina"

"It's been thirty years. I was hoping to see what you were like when I heard you were a brave man... but I didn't think you were again."

"If you die, you can't die. I came back to avenge you."

Lucifina narrows her eyes and distorts her mouth as she mocks her.

"Well, certainly not in that way of dying, you can't cut it, can you? I still remember you. Just before you die, your face. Hehe, it was so funny."

When dull, Lucifina's grin echoes the labyrinth.

"Nevertheless..."

Chirali and Lucifina turned their gaze to Elphi.

Elfi stares at Lucifina with one eye.

"... it's terrible, Mr. Amatsu. You've been so close to me, and in only thirty years, you've already found another woman...? I'm going to cry."

Put your hands on your eyes and make a bare gesture like Lucifina wipes tears.

The mouth is maliciously distorted.

"I can't believe you said something so cute when you two were alone: 'I want you to call me Io'!

Lined up with bullshit, Lucifina curbs her chest and circles around like she's distracting the heroine of tragedy.

to that acting attitude while shaking the dress,

"Uncomfortable, half-elf"

Elfi activated the demon eye faster than I did.

Waving down the great sword, Lucifina doubles the ash blast from the front.

Apparently, the inability to use one eye still reduces the power of the demonic eye.

"... I don't like it, Mr. Elfiszark. Are you jealous?

"Is that how you got here to talk nonsense? Then you'll have had enough. I'll slash those limbs off for the reward you entertained."

"... you're a bore"

Lucifina turned her gaze towards me again.

"What is better about someone like this, Mr. 'Io'?

"... is that what you really are"

This nerve will turn me upside down.

It's so nauseating, so unpleasant.

"Well, what do you think? This is an act, and on the inside, you might really want to create such a happy world where everyone can laugh, right?

Lucifina flaunts her shoulders so she can stand aside.

They don't want to have a decent conversation.

"... unpleasant. Shut up."

Severe wear and tear in the battle with Lewsas.

Unlike usual, it seems difficult to activate mindset magic only for a moment.

In order to activate properly, the conditions would have to be aligned.

Elfi's wounds have not healed.

Something, I need to think about my hands.

"I'm unpleasant, too. I enjoyed the comedy of the court clown, Mr. Lewzas, but it sucked that Amatsu was alive."

Lucifina lifts the sword.

It's an incredibly shaped sword that shines purple.

The Devil's Sword, which she used thirty years ago, can only be handled by the chosen one - the "Heavenly Sword".

"... because it's unpleasant and I can't help it"

... what?

I feel somewhere uncomfortable with Lucifina's attitude.

It's like I'm in a hurry for something...

"- Again, die."

"The Heavenly Sword" instantly multiplies the magic power of the user.

It raised its own magic and lifted a great sword as Lucifina slashed it and let it go.

Naturally, I won't let you shoot something like that.

"-" Magic Taunt (Spell Divauer) ""

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

Sooner than that, the magic burst between me and Elfi.

Magic Takeover reduces the effect of the Great Sword for a moment, and Elphi shoots in the demonic eye without addition or subtraction.

Lucifina was swallowed by an explosion shortly after dealing with it.

"... it's a joke woman"

"It wasn't like that when we were traveling together."

"... were you really able to travel properly?

"You're losing confidence yourself."

Now Elphi's demon eye was definitely hit.

Even though it's losing its power, if that one strikes straight, it's for free -.

- I can't believe you found something.

From behind, Lucifina's voice.

Suddenly, signs appeared.

That, too, is for two (...).

――――

Behind Lucifina, one demon tribe was seen standing.

A woman with dark green hair, dressed in military uniform.

A twisted horn, like a goat, grows from the head.

I waved down the 'Heavenly Sword', which maximized my magic power.

"-" Devil's Destruction Seizure (Il Atalaxia) "Huh!!"

Deploy the shield.

But we can't prevent Lucifina from attacking with this stuff.

It's only a buy of time.

"Elfi, evade with your demon legs."

Speaking up, I didn't hear back.

"How could you..."

Next door, Elfi was out of line.

His eyes, stunned on his face and wide open, capture the deep green demon clan.

"El -"

The slaughter was unleashed.

The demonic blockade endured only for a moment.

Shortly afterwards, we devoured Lucifina's slaughter and were blown behind our back.

"- Huh"

Behind it is a big hole drilled with the Demon Heaven Fall (Eclipse) -.

We were thrown out of the labyrinth.

In a glass of vision, cloudy weather expands.

Shortly afterwards, he began to fall abruptly toward the ground, along with a floating sensation in which all his guts floated.

"Ugh... ugh"

Unexpectedly breathtaking to that feeling.

The Labyrinth of Abomination is in the shape of a tower.

The top is quite high.

If you fall, you're not free.

Like me, Elfi was falling toward the ground.

I manage to capture my silver hair shaking in the abyss of my sight.

"Io! Grab my hand!

With that screaming, Elfi reaches out.

If you have demonic legs, you can handle falling from here.

Trying to grab Elfi's hand somehow in his shaky sight -,

"I won't let you, will I?

――

From the top of my head, the Great Sword fell.

Even if he manages to prevent it with a jade knife, he is knocked down all at once.

If you noticed, there was a figure of Lucifina and the Demons over your head.

Again. There was no foretaste, it appeared in front of me.

It's not a dimension like fast travel.

"... Kuh"

Elfi tries to activate the demon leg, trying to help me fall,

"... a cage."

"Become"

The moment the demons uttered something, Elphi's body was imprisoned in a black cage.

Wrapped in some kind of magic grant (magic item), Elphi's movement stops.

"El -"

"I don't like finding out. Look at me."

I try to use magic snatching, but Lucifina didn't allow it.

In the air, vision intersects.

Lucifina lifted the 'Heavenly Sword', falling just like me.

"... oh, I knew it would be unpleasant to see you"

"Hero (The) -"

"Fall, die"

I couldn't even make it, and I was swallowed up by the slaughter.

You can't be defensive, you can't be preventable, you're struck by a shock as if your whole body had fallen apart.

Disturbed vision and sudden fall.

"... el, fi"

During the fall, he captured the figure of Elfi, imprisoned in a cage, far overhead.

I can see Lucifina and the Demons grasping Elphi's cage.

――――

Shortly afterwards, the three instantly disappeared (...) from sight.

Looking overhead, I couldn't even find a shadow.

And I can't afford to care where the three of them disappeared to right now.

"Fuck, man."

I can't even move my hands and feet...

I fell to the ground with great momentum.
