Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai

Lesson 69: The Eighth Curse

I take the right fist of a giant attacking me while choosing a wall with my left arm.

Shit, that's a heavy shock.

but not unbearable power.

- This time, it's from here.

Squeeze with force into your left arm.

A giant has now rolled out his left fist.

I smashed my left hand into my impending fist.

Each other's fists collide.

Slightly cracked running noise.

It was the giant fist that ran the crack in the spider's nest.

I push my fist forward with even more force.

Black fog erupts vigorously from the hole around the elbow of the left arm, which has become deformed.

At the same time, fist momentum increases.

A feeling of even more power.

"O, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Boo.

Giant arms collapse like they can no longer stand it.

The other day, when Mr. Makina took me to trial, I tried to punch the walls of the Holy Ruins with this arm.

It was easy to smash through the walls.

This left arm is probably the most powerful weapon I have right now.

Moreover, you can also rapidly accelerate your fists by accumulating force in your arms and opening them up.

If this didn't work, a little anxiety broke through my brain.

- I can do this.

I'll take care of it again.

It was only the attitude that made it easier to move on to the next attack, though.

Naturally, there is no such thing as martial arts.

Still, in this state, I feel like I could just press the specs.

Above all, the present state.

My body is moving more than I think.

The fists of the collapsed giants are restored.

Self-repair ability.

Will it play this fast?

I'm amazed at the speed.

It is not comparable to the rate of regeneration of small species.

I mean... if you don't poke your weakness, you're not going to defeat it?

If Mr. Currier follows the analysis, there are two weaknesses.

Aim, head or heart...

A giant begins to destroy the ceiling.

He also shakes his arms like a whip and crushes the surrounding walls.

You seem to have created an environment where you can easily move around.

Still, my scaffolding was fortunate and safe.

Step on the floor.

And he jumped at the head of the giant as he chanted the ninth curse.

In this state, physical abilities have also been raised to the bottom.

The bouncing force was also exceptionally high.

The chain of the ninth curse holds the giant captive.

In the meantime, pack the distance from the giant, all at once.

The chains are ripped apart by giants.

but it reaches the nostalgia...

The giant's right hook struck from across.

It is also speeding because it has been freed from the confined space.

Hit him with his left arm with his attacking fist.

Fist and fist collide.

Again, this is the top offense.

A crack stretched out to the tip of his elbow and the giant's right arm cracked open.

But the current clash kills the momentum of the leap.

I hold my fist harder.

- Remember when you tried it.

The momentum could have been adjusted due to the strength.

Guru, make a stockpile.

And the image you unleash all at once from here...

A black misty thing erupts vigorously from the elbow.

Geez, and accelerations like jet engines happen.

Rapid acceleration.

orbit to the head of the giant while accelerating in such a way as to be pulled by the fist.

The giant repairing his right arm guards his face aggressively with his left arm.

Again I change the angle of my arm and spray fog.

Change orbit - aim, heart!

"Become -!?"

but the giant twisted his body and distracted the attack.

Though my fist went over a piece of the giant's body, it was hard to capture the target part.

And soon the restoration of the quarreled spot begins.

Surprisingly quick.

Giants seem to be 'able to move' more than I thought.

At least not dull.

Due to the lack of proper scaffolding, I was thrown out into the universe and landed on one lower level that was visible under my eyes.

Look up at the giant.

It doesn't seem to absorb and empower more sacraments than that, thanks to the 'demon eater' who is deeply stabbed in the neck.

On several occasions the giant has tried to pull the knife out of his neck.

But I can't seem to take it because of the deep penetration.

The right arm of the already crushed giant had regenerated.

Amazing playback speed, albeit not instant restoration.

Then,

- At speeds beyond playback speed, you can tap into the attack.

I thrust my left fist up against the soles of the giants attacking me to crush them.

feels like this.

The next moment, the giant's left leg can be crushed.

And I can't rest my attacking hand from here.

I raised the mood for tears and kept pounding my left fist in uninterrupted.

Keep beating the giant's feet thoroughly.

My legs try to get back on track, but my attack can't keep up with the giant's repair speed.

Titans kneeling like that.

but not yet.

Repeat the attack.

Pull, beat, pull, beat repeatedly.

Beat, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash, smash - keep smashing!

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

End here.

I kept rolling out my fists without resting.

Exactly makes my breath harder, but the attacks released in a row are definitely outpacing the giant's rate of regeneration.

That's how I kept pounding my fist in, and the lower body of the giant's left finally disappeared.

A one-legged giant leans his body forward with a loss of balance.

The giant poked his left arm and managed to support his body.

That's when I realize.

The playback speed... is dropping?

It seems that the blue and white lines running to the body are also getting thinner somehow -.

The giant opened his mouth gently

Light gathers in my mouth.

But...... now the line doesn't get thicker.

I see.

Probably needs sacrament to repair.

However, because of the stabbing of the Devil's Eater, it does not accumulate the required amount of sacrament in the body.

Beat the giant's left arm.

Finally, the body of a giant who has lost its support falls in like a rush.

"- Stupid."

I put my strength on my left arm again.

And...

A fist thrust up into the giant's heart.

Spray black mist from elbows.

Zedong, and his fist plunges further in.

My arm was through the giant's left chest to the base.

Affordable.

"O, ooh, ooh, ooh..."

The roar of the giant gradually decreases.

The line running to the body narrows and returns to orange.

And the giant collapsed and fell down.

At the end of the day, I'm the only one who sticks his arm up and breathes on his shoulder.

"Did you manage... yes! Mr. Currier!"

I wasn't immediately conscious because it was strangely quiet.

I collect "Demon Eaters" and then jump in a hurry and land on a scaffold that is still safe in the upper hierarchy.

And... closed the Second World.

My left arm goes back to normal.

The second realm of the eighth curse was lifted because the battle was already over.

"Ha..."

Laughter leaked unexpectedly.

In front of me is the figure of Mr. Currier, who has already laid his sword on his sheath.

Phew, and I'm wiping my jaw sweat with my clothes sleeves.

She noticed me.

"You... sounds like you did it. I just defeated you, too."

"Mr. Currier, you normally knocked him down"

"I know better than that. I could've done something by myself."

Something went wrong.

With that one word, I guess it's done.

Is there no problem with the inhibition of the use of saccharin......

I knew it was something else, she is.

Even so...... how did you knock him down?

I questioned it and asked,

"Though the concentration of saccharin is thin, it doesn't mean you can't get into the body. Of course, the burden increases. But unfortunately, I couldn't collect enough sacraments to use the surgical demon costume, so I guess the surgical ceremony was about combat aid at best... so I even attacked and defeated the weakness"

and.

He said "I even attacked and defeated a weakness"... but I had a hard time attacking that weakness.

"Are you better than that? Awesome sweat, huh?

"Hahaha... Actually, the second stage of the new curse is the same as Mr. Currier's surgical demon costume, which seems to have a heavy load on his body"

"Right."

Poop, and Mr. Currier slapped me on the hip.

Her mouth was slightly loose.

Sometimes she floats, a sweet face.

"Good Luck"

"Uh... Ah, they are. And Mr. Currier."

"Mmm."

I wonder what it is.

It was kind of a great pleasure to have you around.

I didn't want you to be too centered, but as I expected, the small species were going for the ground.

The four men, Ira and Ray, Sieg and Hilgis, managed to run up the upper hierarchy and arrive at the entrance to the Holy Ruins while defeating the small species encountered along the way.

Mr. Ira and Mr. Ray stay on the ground.

The remaining Sieg and Mr. Hilgis defeated the small species that came up without shooting them out.

He didn't use the transfer device because it would take five minutes to get enough to transfer and he was worried that the Fae might push in with the mutation of the ruins yesterday.

Sometimes the hierarchy is shallow as the three levels, and it seems that the stairs are less dangerous and faster.

So, it looks like the small species stopped showing up just like when me and Mr. Currier defeated the giant.

I'm relieved to see predictions around here, too.

It would have been a big deal if we had defeated the giants but the infinite number of small species would continue to gush.

So, Mr. Cecily and the others.

This one returned with a transfer device.

First of all, in their case, it was bigger than anything else that they found the transfer room as soon as they broke up with Mr. Ira and the others.

In addition, the students of the old Fiburg squad, including Mr. Beoza, seemed spicy to walk with injuries and fatigue, and the speed of movement itself was remarkably slow, so Mr. Cecily seemed to want to avoid letting them walk in three tiers if he could.

Again, unlike the Ira and the others, there was no need to rush, so Cecily said she treated the first-aid, deeply wounded student first when she entered the transfer room with a healing ceremony.

And then they activated the transfer device and went back to the ground.

By the way, it seems that all the demons that pushed over were defeated by Mr. Cecily.

These things were heard later from the members of the parting group.

But no one expected this to happen to Operation Crusade or to compete with the Fiburgs.

Nevertheless,

Without overflowing the ground with small species.

Survival of the old Fiburg squad also returned safely.

And of course, all Ira squads are safe.

The giant could also be defeated.

If you look only at the results, isn't it something like good?

Then, the students who died inside the Holy Ruins, including Bashkarta and Fiburg... they were transferred to the transfer site of St. Ruins Square in a state of sleep, apparently.

The resuscitation transfer of the sacred ruins seems to have worked properly.

but Bashkarta, Fiburg and the deceased students should be expelled if they follow school rules.

Moreover, they are supposedly not to wake up from sleep for at least two years, so it will be two years before they are reunited even if they wake up in the shortest period of time confirmed to date.

In addition, a small number of high ecclesiastical ranks were expelled from school in this series of giant-related events.

It seems unusual in the history of the school for this number of small sacred superiors to leave school in such a short period of time.

Some of them seemed to be well-known aristocratic children.

Do you think some parents would irrationally yell at me if their own children were 'dead' within the sacred ruins occasionally without school side control?

After figuring out what was going on, I was impressed that Mr. Makina had a sigh that seemed more troublesome than usual.

Is there someone like a monster parent in this world, too?

Well.

After we defeated the giant, me and Mr. Currier ran up to the ground right after that.

And I joined Sieg and Mr. Hilgis at the entrance and waited a while to see if the small seeds would come.

but wait, none of the small species show up.

A few moments later came the wind discipline people and the guards.

After we explained that the defeat of the giant could have caused the small species to disappear, we entrusted them with the opportunity to return to the ground.

Many of the faculty members were seen in St. Ruins Square.

Though holidays, many of them seem to be able to convene relatively quickly because they have a residence on the school grounds.

Many students appeared to have been evacuated, but in the square, the student council and the people could be seen.

We explain the situation to the instructors.

During that explanation, Mr. Makina took Mr. Ira and the others to show up from the hall.

While this is happening, Cecily and the others are being sent to the transfer location.

Beoza and the others were escorted to the hall.

Once again, after hearing the story from us, Mr. Makina begins to surround the square table and talk to the instructors.

And as a result of the discussion, a decision was made to see how things were going in St. Ruin Square until the evening for now.

Being a party, they want us to stay, too, and the Ira squad stays in the square.

Only Mr. Ray joined the wind discipline club in the ruins.

Mr. Currier,

"You'll be tired, so you rest. I'll explain more to the dean."

I set aside and headed to Mr. Makina.

Cecily may be able to use the healing ceremony and went to the hall to treat Beoza and the others.

Sieg and Mr. Hilgis also accompanied her.

That's why I got out of hand as soon as I could. I sat down on the bench alone.

As I sat on the bench and took a breath of relief, I saw the students who died inside the Holy Ruins, including Bashkarta, being transferred.

Slightly late and Fiburg is transferred as well.

They were transported to faculty and hall staff.

I guess I lost my mind, I was blurry looking at the sight.

"Next door, okay?

It was Mr. Ira who spoke up.

"Ah, go ahead."

She smiled bitterly when she saw Mr. Currier answering the questions of Mr. Makina and the teachers.

"You know, after I broke up with you guys, I didn't show up."

Mr. Ira sits next to him.

I still don't know what it is, so I keep my sword and armor on.

"Thanks for this one, Crohiko. You really helped me a lot."

"It's just that Ira's cancer has come to fruition. I just helped."

"Yeah, that's not true. If it weren't for you, Currier and Cecily would never have helped... and I think all we had left was Atashi and Ray, just going right and left"

"But Isla is the one who made me think," I want to help this man, "right? If you weren't Mr. Ira, you wouldn't know if we were working together, would you?

"Ha ha... what a humble one you are"

I cough like a joke.

"No, she's just an octagonal beauty"

Pugh, and Ira fumbled it out.

"What's that?

"I don't want people to hate me. You said that inside the Holy Ruins, didn't you? It's basically not a big one. That's why I want people to think a lot about me. Right? It's not a 'nice one' at all, is it?

I joked as hard as I could not be humbled.

Mr. Ira fumbles out again.

"Heh, it's weird. You really don't say that from yourself, do you?

Is that so, Mr. Cecily?

Second, Ira, who returned her expression, opened her gaze to the universe.

"I want people to think a lot about me, huh?"

Somewhere late for a thought.

"You know, Crohiko."

"Yes."

"I'm sorry about Fiburg"

"You mean Fiburg?

"That's when I pushed you and Currier into an unpleasant role."

Oh, that one.

"Never mind. And I'm not the one who tried to mud it, Mr. Currier."

"Yeah... but I think maybe Atashi is also a person who wants to make himself look good to people. That's why I tried to be a 'good one' on that occasion..."

Mr. Ira lays down her gaze to guard herself, even as she breaks her mouth.

"If I thought rationally, I knew Currier was right about what he was saying. That, Atashi -"

"I didn't hate Ira when she said I wanted to help."

"Huh?"

Mr. Ira raised his face.

If Ira doesn't get lost over there, she says, 'Let's just abandon this one!' If I had said that... at least I think I would have changed my view of her.

I don't know...... I was rather relieved to hear the words' I want to help ', as far as she is concerned.

"I don't hate Ira for not being ruthless."

"Krohiko......"

"Of course it's sometimes necessary to throw away the sweetness. But Mr. Ira, you switched heads right away, didn't you? It's enough that I didn't suddenly lose myself there. You did a good job."

After I said it, oh, I thought.

Because Ira lay down on her face and stuck her breath all the time.

Hey, did I say something bad...?

"Oh, well, I'm sorry that sounds great..."

Mr. Ira raised his face.

I smiled.

but I have a little tear in my eye.

"... it's really a 'good one', isn't it, you?"

Oh, and Ira took my hand.

And I slipped over here while I sat down.

"Thanks."

"No, I don't"

Near.

Besides, I'm getting a little chest on my arm......

"Hehe... that was cool, Crohiko"

It's an honor.

"Oh, you know."

Then Ira, who dyed her cheeks to Zhu, lowered her gaze and asked hesitantly.

"Are the rumors about you and Cecily true?

"What? Me and Mr. Cecily rumors?

"Is that it? Don't you know?

"... are there rumors of something?

No more... our belly blackness is about to be found out inside the school?

"You know... I'm talking about you two being in love."

"Whoa, whoa!

Oh, there's a surprising amount of trachea...!

"Is there such a rumor going on!?

"Ugh, yeah. But as far as that reaction goes... no?

"I'm not unfriendly, but I'm not in love! Look at me and tell me!

"Uh, I don't know what the last one means... but I mean, you two aren't in love?

"That would be..."

"Hmm, well... yes..."

Dye your cheeks cherry color and look somewhat happy, Ira.

What the fuck?

I observe her quietly.

And, when Ira smiles like she fixes it, she starts gesturing somehow with both hands.

"Oh, that's it!? You're easy to talk about! I can count on you and... so, uh... yeah... thanks for your continued support!?

Nice to meet you, huh?

In many ways, Mr. Ira stood up.

And pound my shoulder with a grin,

"Bye! Again!"

and walked away.

…………

What was that?

Wow.

Something surrounding the table Mr. Makina and Mr. Currier are looking at us with cancer!?

"... is that it?

Someone odd jumped into my eye near the entrance to the square.

A colored hair, beast ears, and made-up clothes.

"Mr. Mia?

I lifted my hips and headed for the entrance to the square.

"Ah, Master Krohiko..."

Mr. Mia found me in the face just saying he was helping.

"Could you hear the noise?

"Yes! I heard that Lord Krohiko is headed to the Holy Ruins today... so, worry about it."

Gyu, and Mia holding the hand on her chest.

"Are you all right?

"Yeah, this is it"

Indicates a safe body.

Ha, Mia leaks a big relief breath.

"Great... If anything happens to Master Krohiko, Mia can't be here or not..."

"I was worried about you"

While I laughed bitterly, I thought it was one of the important things to come back safely.

Then I told him that I would still be here today, that I didn't know when I was going to be home.

Yes, I did, Mr. Mia nodded.

"Then Mia waits ready to rest at Master Krohiko's house"

"Thank you"

"Master Krohiko."

Mia bowed politely.

"Thank you for coming back safely"

"Mr. Mia......"

Looking a little illuminated, Mr. Mia left the square at the footsteps of dancing.

The Knights of the Holy Tree then arrived around noon.

And evening.

Holy ruins remain silent.

There are no signs of small species coming out.

Sometimes the sun is falling, and Mr. Makina told me to cut it up here today.

We Ira Squad were finally allowed home except for Mr. Ray here.

Mr. Ray is still in action with the Wind Discipline Society.

Incidentally, it feels pinched in my little ear that the Holy Site attack at the school is going to be suspended for a while.

Until now, the school side had not remembered much of the crisis due to the anomaly of the Holy Site, but this time, it was said that the Knights of the Holy Tree would be at the centre of the investigation of the site.

Some of us are tired today, and after we decide to do something like a light celebration in the dining room after school tomorrow, we decided to leave the square and go straight home.

First he broke up with the Cecilies returning home, then with the two Curriers and Ira in front of the women's quarters.

Exactly. I'm a mess, too.

Finally I reach home and open the door.

By then it was completely dark outside.

"I'm home."

"Ah - Welcome home, Master Krohiko"

Mr. Mia, who was sitting in a chair, gets up.

"What will you do? Can I take a bath first?

When I saw Mia smile, I lost more strength from her body.

"Yeah, I will"

Mr. Mia nodded happily and said he would be ready soon, and headed to the bathroom.

I'll put my hips down in the chair.

…………

Anyway, I'm tired.

Today, let's get some rest.
