The Branded Female Fencer

Missing Talent, Part 51 - Beast Feast

"Ahhh!

"Defensive magic... doesn't hold!

"Hmm, that's a poor barrier. Let me help you."

When Lifeless bewitched, the ground burst wide enough to surround the Alphilis and the others, blocking all shock waves and hot air. Once they learned that safety had arrived, the Alphilis sat on the spot in a slump.

"Oh, thank God."

"I guess this wall will be fine..."

"You think I'd do that to Hema? Mostly, a massive explosion creates a huge vacuum, so the shockwave returns after that. In defensive magic just up front, you'll die then. Your witchcraft seemed aggressive, but you didn't seem to turn your head that far, did you?

I'm sorry.

"Oh, I'm sorry. And the magic itself was activated by omitting the chant. It holds down considerable power. Even the dirt walls will hold up."

"Wait, with that power, omit the chant?

Larna inquired in surprise. But Lifeless argued that it was only natural.

"Naturally, power would be about a tenth of what it is when it's fully chanted. Otherwise, it can't be prevented by magic in the first place. That's why it's magic. Can we just leave Alphilis alone more than that?

"Ha!?

When Larna looked back, Alphilis nearly sealed the spell she activated. Was it because of the short activation time, the Alphilis curse was already about to be undone?

"Don't worry, Larna. I already sealed it."

"But it's that easy..."

"Looks like we got it. Is it because Larna taught you to handle the curse to some extent? I was researching it myself, but it seemed worth it."

Alphilis laughed and showed it, but that smile was impossible. Again, the liberation of the curse marks strains the body. Alphilis wanted to lie down and rest right now, as long as the situation allowed.

But Lifeless used the situation outside, through the demons, but you explored it.

"Enough."

And when I whined, I put the dirt barrier back on its original ground. It doesn't seem easy to undo something that has been reshaped by witchcraft. Those who knew about the sorcery were frightened of the lifeless, but as long as they were on their side, they were reliable. Alphilis alone had no time to breathe, a thought that doubled fatigue in his heart.

And the sight of Lifeless looking down the wall was more terrifying than I expected. Until earlier I thought it was a complete dark night, the forest was engulfed in flames, bright as day. Auri supports Fenna in creeping when she remembers the sight of burning the woods when she fought Lifeless.

But even if it wasn't Fenna, I wouldn't have any choice but to remember to be dizzy. The surrounding sights were too different than they were earlier. There was a life around me that breathed secretly like a forest at night. But I can't feel any signs of life right now. Perhaps to an inch, the lamp of life was swallowed by the fire of death. Larna accidentally mourned her life and put her hands together in front of her. Looking at Larna's tricks, Lifeless blushes.

"Pray for what, woman"

"Against lost lives. Don't you feel anything, in this sight?

"It wasn't born of wood stone with me, I never felt anything. But I hate futility. If you pray and your lost life pays back, let's also pray. But reality is always heartless. It would be useless to just keep an eye on that."

"You think it's useless to worry about your life?

"Stop being hypocritical"

Lifeless told me to throw up.

"We kill a lot of lives just stepping out one foot. For example, walking featherworms, grass sprouts. Or even smaller, more invisible creatures. But how do you listen to the screams of the ants you crushed at your feet? If so, it would be difficult for you to go to the next house. If you feel guilty about taking just one step, die now. If you don't feel anything, it's still hypocrisy"

"Your story is too extreme. Sure, it may not be possible to respect every invisible life you breathe at your feet, but can you listen to as much as the cry of life that reaches your ears?

"There are no kings who can do that. I didn't even get my subordinate voice."

"Didn't you try to hear that?

Lifeless expression clouded Russia in Alphilis' allegations. I didn't think it was a good idea. Rhine or Lisa stops Alphilis, but Alphilis didn't pull a step back.

But Lifeless also turned his back a little tongue-in-cheek, not willing to contend with Alphilis.

"I'm a woman who doesn't hesitate to say things. If you hadn't made a deal with Oranzeble, you'd be killing him, wouldn't you?

"That's how you've lived by killing the opinions of those who disagree. He must have been a tyrannical king."

I heard they said you were famous.

"It doesn't look that way. Wasn't there anyone you could say anything about? And the brothers? And the parents? What about your lover?"

Alphilis asked a frank question, but Rhine and Tasha thought it was a fluke. To Tan, the hero king of Graham, whom they hear, there shall be none of his brethren or his parents. And about your lover. The hero king's story is always about fighting. Once again, there were several people who noticed it.

When Lifeless also stopped her legs perfectly, she answered Alphilis's question with an empty look somewhat.

"Those around me... my parents died when I was a kid. The demon attacked me. I feel like we had brothers, but it wasn't the kind of environment we grew up in together. As slaves, or were intermittent for food.

I don't have any friends. I feel like I had quite a few players, but they were also killed by demons and bandits. Lovers are out of the question. Everybody lay flat on my magic and authority, or they just snuck by. There was a woman in the rear palace, but I've never really dealt with her.

So are your men. It was either rebellious or obedient to my word. I don't remember ever having a conversation. "

"Did you really? Didn't you just give up?

"What did you say?"

In an attempt to argue that Lifeless knew what you knew, Lifeless magically crushed the boulder that suddenly flew. Shortly afterwards, Dragreo's right arm pierced the lifeless body like Marutai. Lifeless had no pain, but being pierced through his body fixed Lifeless and lifted to space in the form of grabbing Dragreo's arm.
