Sairin Yuusha no Fukushuu Hanashi

The back of my brain hurts.

The brain is trying to refuse to understand the tragedy in front of us.

Smell of iron poking your nose, spreading through the aisle.

Stepping forward, the blood buildup rocked picturesque.

In a chilled passage, a pummeled organ stood the hot air.

"Ugh...? That's me..."

Idler lay down on the ground tilted his neck and gazed at his lower body.

There are no legs and glutes there to be, just tons of blood and floating organs on it swinging.

He leaked his cramped breath and Idler put his neck back without force.

"Ahhh...... When Io saw your dead minister... I thought it would be like this. Oh, ha, well. No way, really, like this..."

"Shut up! I'll hang the cure magic right away!

"Yes... more than that, the next one will come"

From the other side of the wall where the big hole was empty, countless lights were seen flying over here.

The moment we simultaneously use Magic Taunt (Spell Divauer) and Demonic Destruction Seizure (Il Atalaxia), we smash through the walls and light bullets ravage the castle.

The Tyrannosaurus dragons that were coming this way were also caught in the light of destruction and saw them disappear without a trace.

Light bullets ravaged the castle for about a few seconds, stopping where a crack had entered the demonic blockade.

"It must be a rainy attack, right? Were you evacuating the Demon Clan because you were going to blow us up every Demon Royal Castle... I thought you were gonna be okay while we were fighting the Allies... but you got off guard."

It creates a new demonic blockade and then immediately tries to work on treating Idler.

But I knew with one eye that there was nothing I could do about my curative magic.

Using the usual healing witchcraft, Idler's wounds never blocked.

"Damn! Isn't there some healing magic that can heal that wound!? You would know!

"Haha...... There's nothing I can do about this on a boulder... Elphis Zark might have been different."

Choking on his own blood, Idler laughs like he gave up.

I can't do anything about it.

"Why did you protect me?"

From inside the magically blocked castle, he could not notice the attack outside.

But Idler noticed just before he was attacked.

On top of that, he sheltered me at the expense of himself.

"Well...... right. There's nothing I can do to survive..."

"Even from this castle, you could have escaped...?

"Sort of. But... Here."

Idler smiles with a bloody face.

"We... we're buddies... right?

――――

Companions.

Me and Idler?

"You don't have to look so surprised... really, you're terrible..."

Because of the unanimity of interests, the action was taken together.

We only thought to that extent that it was a relationship that we used each other.

"You..."

"Well, if you look at the attitude, you know what I mean? You... you've been so careful when I betrayed you...?

Exactly.

I never trusted him with a Reaper Idler.

"But. I'm fine... it was fun. Like this...... it's been a long time since I've acted with someone and made a scene... Anyone who can do that... was gone a long time ago..."

That said, Idler threw up a big chunk of blood.

"... Damn.... I'm gonna die."

For a while, idlers laughing to be strong, but their breathing was gradually getting shallow.

My complexion is also changing to earthy.

Idler held my hand weakly.

"... no. I don't want to die."

Small, idler overflowed with words.

"Because... we've come this far. Not much of this..."

From the peachy eyes, the polarity and the Shizuku fade away zero.

"I don't like it... Io, help me! I don't want to die."

I can't do anything.

"... eh"

Idler leaking a whimper, no words to hang.

All I could do was hold Idler's hand back.

"... hey, IO-kun"

After a while, Idler wiped his tears.

You already know who I am, don't you?

"... oh"

"Here I am... sorry I summoned you to a world like this"

Right......

After all, you are.

"Lose all power, all sanity... nothing you can do. Without help... I'm sorry I couldn't lead you right."

"That's not true. You helped me rescue Elfi and Hilde Garda. So it's not useless."

"As a companion... you believe me...?

"Naturally."

Good, and there was a grin on his face.

"I'm... impotent, because I did too much... and I can't seem to do it anymore. But... you guys will be fine. And the“ rain ”that attacked me from the outside... I'm sure Maria will stop it..."

The force slowly falls out of my fingers holding my hand.

"Is there anything I can do for you right now?

"... this,"

It was the white ring that was given to me.

The moment I received it, I was surprised by the amount of magic enclosed.

"Fit,"

Put it on your finger, as they say.

Shortly afterwards, my body became softly lighter.

Chile and "The Testimony of the Brave" ran with heat, feeling full of magic.

"I'll give you my protection. Iori.... please. Take Ortegear... take him down..."

"Oh. I got it. Me and Elphi, I'll take Ortegia down."

Exhaling loudly, the force fell out of Idler's entire body as it was.

"... Bye. Melt."

Little smiles on my mouth...

Idler took his breath away as it was.

◆

"- One thing I want to ask you."

As he sat down on the throne, Orteguia said so with an uninterrupted voice.

With hatred and willingness to kill in his eyes, Elphiszark, who was still about to fly, silently urged ahead.

"Elphiszark. What were you born for?

Surprisingly frowns at Orteguia's unexpected inquiry.

I didn't think I could throw such philosophical enquiries from the man in front of me.

"What I found out. To be the demon king, to end the war between the demons, humans, and subraces. I have been born to realize a world where all my compatriots can live in peace"

Without any precipitation, Elphiszark speaks of the reason for his birth.

Orteguia slightly narrows her golden eyes.

"Right. You find meaning in your birth."

……

Some enviable Orteguia whine.

What the hell has the man in front of me meant to throw this kind of question?

The question of Elphiszark will be resolved in the following Ortegian words:

"I can't find the meaning of my birth. What the hell was an Ortegia born for? I thought if I heard your answer, I'd find some answers."

Looking at Orteguia with a slightly discouraged expression, Elphiszark snorted.

"Bullshit."

"... what?

"What were you born for," he said? Don't make me laugh, Orteguia. You've gotta be kidding me. "

Too much crap makes me want to exhale unexpectedly.

If Io throws this kind of question, he'll have to preach for a few hours.

On the day when my enemy asks me that, I can only come out through anger and scowl.

"The reason I was born is not the kind of thing you would find looking for in the way you do"

So, how do we find it?

"Do you think I have an in-laws to answer that to you? You don't have to find out what it means to be born. You're going to die now."

Shortly after that word, Orteguia, who was sitting on the throne, was swallowed by the explosion.

Hell of the Red Lotus manifests itself and bursts into flames indoors.

- You're right.

Along with a cold voice, the blast flames bounced off.

Orteguia, sitting on the throne the same as before, nods intact.

"Hate and I can't die, either. And the meaning of your birth will never come true. Because you're the one who's going to die here. Elphiszark"

Orteguia rose from the throne.

It was not until shortly after the overhead of Elphiszark that the great black sword was swung down.

The figure of Orteguia holding the great sword was in the front of Elphiszark within a moment.

――――

Breathtaking, not long.

While grinding the floor to step in, Elphiszark dodged the blade with all his might.

The rear of the room is broken in two by the power of the slaughter that occurred.

"" Devil's Eye/Ashes Explosion ""

The demon eye that shot in without letting his hair in, but Orteguia doesn't go through with it.

Standing in a blast, Orteguia's skin was not engraved with one of the burns.

- The properties of Orteguia, the overwhelming defenses caused by magic.

The magic that covers Orteguia's body becomes the armor that plays every attack.

Shooting demon eyes in without accumulation would not work for Orteguia in any way.

Understanding that, Elphiszark shoots his demonic eye into Orteguia one after another.

"No use."

He shrugged boringly, and Orteguia waved a great sword.

Elphiszark activates the Demon Arm and takes an immediate defensive stance.

But the pitch-black slaughter was brilliant, and at that moment it was heavily retracted as it bled out of its arms.

"... ugh."

Elphiszark shouts, as he denies the word.

He instantly stuffed the distance using his demon legs and slapped his full demon arm.

But what came through my arms was not a response to destruction, but a bounced shock.

Orteguia receives a counter released using the Great Sword and his arm bones are smashed and scattered as he makes a blunt noise.

Determining it fatal to be in between any more Orteguia, Elphiszark took the distance with his demonic eyes open.

Orteguia, who broke the demon eye with a sword without incident, said rather than pursuing it.

"You don't have a heart, you're not my enemy"

Not a word uttered to scorn elphiszark for his disadvantage.

That was pure fact.

You don't even become an Orteguia opponent in Elphiszark, where you don't have a heart and you can't give it all.

I've known that since before I got here.

That's why I was tagging with Io to set up an operation to fight Orteguia.

Elphiszark can't beat Orteguia right now.

Then what actions should I take...

- I could have stayed under your command.

Suddenly Orteguia said to Elphiszark, who works out the operation with his head.

"As the Four Heavens King, I could have followed you like that."

"What?

"But you were sweet. By the deadly time."

Don't be ridiculous, whatever Elphiszark shoots into the devil's eye, Orteguia continues his words.

"It's impossible, such as coexistence with humans and subhumans. We are doomed to continue to fight until one of us perishes. Even if I obey you, the threat of other races will not disappear. Because I don't want to die. Your ideals were in the way to eliminate the danger of death"

"I don't think so. Humans, demons, and subhumans can live hand in hand. I, the devil, and Io the mortal, should be able to coexist without strife among other races, just as they have walked this far."

"Ideal theory."

to Orteguia to throw up short,

"Even so. But I am king of all demons. I can't live up to my ideals."

…………

"Create a world where all races can live in peace. - To make such an ideal come true, I aspired to the Demon King."

Understanding the overwhelming difference in strength, Elphiszark's will does not diminish either fine dust.

The magic overflowing from the whole body was increasing more than ever.

"... that's stupid"

As disappointed, Orteghia narrows her eyes.

In a moment, the demonic arm of Elphiszark clashed with the demonic sword of Orteguia.
