The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

"Ruth! Can you hit me with a powerful hand?!"

More powerful, more powerful?

"That's right, I can't take him down with this number!It's a powerful way to shoot a blow at once! "

I was able to disable the Administrator's attack, but now we don't have enough to kill the opponent either.The last blow will remain.

"A powerful blow!? Even if you say that, even if you attack multiple times with the Holy Sword, how can you not do decent damage...!"

Ruth saw a chain of chains tangled with the administrator, flashing one possibility.

Olha, please help Alec.

Looking at Ruth, Orha understood the meaning of the wish, but when she gave up Ruth's defenses, she quickly disappeared from the scene.

"Thank you, Orha. Alec, I'll do it!"

Ruth begins to create.The target is in Alec's hands.But the shape will be halfway there, just like before.

What is this, huge sword turtles?

Alec's only sword appeared to be a tsubaki that was longer than Alec's height in relation to a typically large pattern.Originally, there is a blade at the end, but it does not appear as it is.

"Alec, it's the same. I can't create a finished form.Make an orha of that size with Alec's help! "

"Orha of this size is too stupid - is that it!?"

"That's right! Make a giant sword!Size enough to cut him in one blow.But that's not enough power.So transform Orha into the Holy Sword Excalibur! "

Orha is strong, but rather a skilled weapon, so simple strength defeats the Holy Sword Excalibur.It would be better to use the Holy Sword as a means of attack.But Ruth doesn't know the shape of the Excalibur, so he can't create it.In the first place, it might be suspicious to make Excalibur huge and create it.However, a skilled Orha can transform into a huge weapon with the power of the Holy Sword.

And in this world, Orha, who simulated the Holy Sword, can also become a true Holy Sword with the power of the brave.

"All right, let me handle it!"

Understanding what Ruth was saying, Alec quickly took a strong grip on Orha.When I made a turtle about three times the size Ruth made, I found a blade that matched it.

"Oliharkon! Show me your power!"

Alec barked and the shape of Orha changed.In the shape of a white weapon, black and gold lines appear, and gems with emerald sparkle appear.The shape of Alec's Holy Sword Excalibur.

"Wow...."

The Holy Sword looked like a stylish weapon when it was its normal size, but when it gets so huge, it feels like majestic pressure.Even though it was supposed to be a holy sword, just seeing it made my heart tremble, and I felt the power to turn away from my face.

It was the same for the administrator.He struggles to escape desperately in chains again.

"Don't imitate me like this!You were born to fulfill the wishes of the stars. "

"I was born for me!I can't wait to see what others are looking at! "

― ―

Alec's words stopped the administrator.

"I'm going to be strong for Ruth by my will!Not for the stars!That's bullshit! "

Alec's giant Holy Sword Excalibur-No, Oliharkon is on fire.

It was a moment when weapons that had once been left untouched turned into brave men's most powerful weapons.

"Destroy them, you pervert the reason of the world!"

An overwhelming weapon of Alec's power is swinging down to the manager.

(That light...!)

Ruth then saw a burning golden light spreading from Alec's body.

The light was similar to the radiance that I saw when I was fully awake, but I felt warmth somewhere different from before.

Ugh!

The administrator's disconnection resonates.The left and right bodies were cut into dozens by Alec, who returned the sword, and wrapped in a white glow.

The light covers the entire world where Ruth and the others are, and the surroundings are invisible.The sound gets farther and farther.

"--You 've grown stronger, my son Alec."

With such kind words echoing, the administrator disappeared in the light.

------------

Ruth woke up feeling the warmth of his arms on his back.

"Damn... where are we?"

What was in front of me was the remains of a cafe terrace that I had visited once when I wandered through the ark.There is also a dark, long passage behind it.The ceiling was high and didn't look good, but there was also wreckage of the communication corridor that Ruth and the others were supposed to be passing through.

"You mean it fell under the aisle.I mean, it's real, thank goodness..... "

Unlike the spiritual world, Ruth said relieved by the darkness and abundance of things.This must be in the original ark.

"Alec, are you okay?"

Alec, who was standing up holding Ruth in his arms, looked up at the dark universe somehow with a steep face.

"... ah, mr....?"

Alec murmured something, but Ruth didn't hear it well.

Ruth wakes up and touches Alec, who is stunned.

"Alec... Alec, are you okay?"

"--Eh... ah, yeah. It's okay. You?Are you hurt? "

"Oh, Alec took it. I'm not hurt."

I remember before being flown into the space with the administrator.Ruth's life would not have been lost if it had fallen normally.Even so, Ruth doesn't have any pain now.Alec caught us falling together.

Alec looked stunned, but when he started talking to Ruth, he went back to normal.

"Administrator, you disappeared at the last moment, right?Maybe he's dead? "

"I don't suppose it's easy for someone to call the stars.But the fact that we're back where we came from didn't mean we succeeded in getting rid of it.They must have taken a lot of damage out there.They won't be coming for a while. "

I see. I see.

Ruth finally resolved his tension with Alec's words.

I was never able to participate properly, but I didn't want to be involved in such a fight again.Without Alec, he would have been killed easily.

(But it's amazing, Alec. I can't believe I'm turning back the “um” administrator...)

From the point of view of the administrator, Ruth and the others are small beings who are not aware of “life”.No matter how many administrators were stretching their legs from their mounds into the space where Ruth and the others were, it must be easy to kill and suffer.However, Alec fought almost equally, causing the opponent to hurt, rather than poking at the administrator's selfish wishes.

(It's over...)

At last, during the time of relief, when the two were breathing, the ark began to shake again.

Well, we have to get out of here.

"I see. We have to meet everybody - Alec?"

Ruth glanced at Alec and noticed that he looked different.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"What's wrong with those eyes?"

"Eyes?"

Alec's eyes turned into a burning red mixed green rather than a regular jewel.Looking closely, the surrounding golden light is also increasing like in the middle of a battle, giving off stronger signs than usual.

When he told the story, Alec meditated.

"It's been twenty years..."

"Twenty?"

Proper value for a brave man. It was supposed to fall to eighteen, but it's rising again to twenty. "

"Eh!? Same as when you were completely awake!?Are you okay, Alec? "

Twenty Values of Bravery are values that Alec couldn't control before and made run wild.And it must have been evidence of complete awakening, as the administrator was looking for.

Ruth was afraid that Alec would suffer again.

"... it's okay, Ruth. It's strangely calming down.I know it's full of power, but I don't know... it's all around me. It's under control. "

Alec repeatedly opened and closed his palms, increasing and decreasing the light that shined around him.

"Yeah, it's okay."

"Well then, that's fine....."

"--Ruth! Alec!"

"Ah, everyone!"

As the two were talking, a group of friends broke off in the communication corridor rushed in.Looks like they followed Ruth and the others down here.

"I'm sorry, I went a long way up."

"It's okay, it's okay.You can climb again. "

"I'm Alec. Are you sure you're okay?"

"Oh, it's okay."

After a conversation with his friends, Ruth started walking towards the exit again.Since there is no communication passageway, we are looking for another route while aiming for the entrance that came in.

"Our fake!? Were you okay?"

On the way, when I heard from Karen and the others after they split up, they were also taken to a strange space.And that's where I met Ruth's fakes.

"Yeah, I'm laughing already."

"Actually, I'm not laughing at Kia."

"It certainly looked just like Ruth and the others, but it was too much work."

"Huh? Huh? What do you mean you laughed too much?"

Even Ruth and the others had such a hard time getting out, so Karen and the others were worried that it would have been difficult to escape - for some reason they kept talking with a laugh.

"Fake Ruth showed up and told me to dump Alec."

"... what?"

"Yes, that's Ruth's fake! I told him to abandon Alec and run!"

"Hah...?"

Zagreth wasn't able to defeat him.With this, the entire world will perish.That's why Alec left Zagres to talk to Karen and the others about escaping.

Ruth laughed bitterly when she heard that.

"Doesn't that look like what I told you before...?"

What will Ruth do when the world or Alec or both are hung on the balance - Ruth has talked about this before in order to convey the strength of his determination to go to the ark.

They came so far to understand the strength of Ruth's will.The people who are listening to the story are of course...

"That's right. And the fake took his own life, so we laughed."

"But that fake, if we laughed, we'd be angry!"

"Fake Alec as Pocahontas."

Remember what happened then? Not only Kia, but Ed, Maxim and Yuan started laughing as well.Unlike what I expected, Ruth could only smile bitterly.

And we attacked them all at once.

Eh!?

"Our coordinated attacks are worth it, and the fakes are gone.Thanks to this, I was able to return to reality without any trouble. "

"That's what happened...."

It seems that there was also a fake Alec, but he was not extremely strong. He also made plans and disappeared completely when he attacked.False Lou - sadly, he didn't respond to any comments, but he was as weak as the real one, so he must have been lightly done.

"Thank you, Ruth, for showing us your determination at the time."

"Hahahaha....."

I wasn't prepared for anything like this, but Ruth had a cramped laugh.

A manifestation of determination, Ruth?

"Ah... I'll tell you when I get home."

To be honest, it was embarrassing to let Alec talk about it, so Ruth decided to postpone it and deceive it.I was hoping you'd forget, but I knew it wouldn't be possible.

As we had such a conversation, we even moved through the collapsing ark, and eventually it became a familiar landscape.

There's a smell outside!

"Guys, we're almost there!"

"I'm sure you'll be safe."

As the appeasement spread, Ruth also hurried his legs to the exit - something pulled his legs and he almost fell on the spot.
