Trinitas Mundus

Lesson 43: Descent

The morning of March 1st.

In Rowni, about eight km (Kimmel) south of Luberna, the capital of the Moon Demons, the spirits are raging like storms.

That was caused by the ritual of divine descent, which was forcibly begun by the self-inflicted leader of the Moon Demon Nation, the Moon Witch Elise Nortier.

A presence with mighty power in the body of Luna, son of the moon, is summoned by the ritual.

Luna still remained unconscious, but rises abruptly. The movement was like a puppet and unnatural.

Strong fluctuations are scattered from the risen Luna. That fluctuation is not the power of the Spirit of Darkness, but a power like the underlying fear itself.

Elise was trembling with joy at the power of it. Because all I could think was that the Dark God (Noctis) had descended on her.

(God has descended! My trusteeship wasn't wrong! Now our grief will be fulfilled! I can clear up the grudges of my years......)

At the feet of the joyful Elise was the figure of Varma, deprived of his physical freedom by the magic of paralysis. Her eyes were filled with madly stained ealis and the desperate sight of beloved Luna turning into another being. And I couldn't stop myself from teething and overflowing tears in both eyes without the art of becoming.

(Your son... what the white magician was saying was about this. Your son will be trapped by evil gods. But I can't do anything...)

Elise's laughter further strengthens her sense of despair.

(Master Ellis has changed too... if only I were firmer...)

I was feeling the cold as the tears passed down my cheeks.

Luna regained consciousness by standing up regardless of her own will.

I just didn't understand what was going on and was confused by the immense will about to enter within me.

(What? Something's coming in!... Something's about to take me over... like I'm not going to be me anymore. Ugh, that's disgusting. Help......)

It breaks in so that a new will overrides its own will. I nauseate at that discomfort, but my physical freedom is unfavourable.

(body not moving? Why?... What's this? Cold or freezing loneliness? No, this is something that rejects everything...... no! Don't be taken over by this being... this is the enemy that he was talking about... you can't beat me...)

Luna resists desperately, but is gradually eroded by an overwhelming difference in power.

I found Ray at the end of my gaze as I was about to give up in despair.

I scream in my heart, "Help, Saint Hijiri!" but my vocal cords didn't move as I thought they would and I could only weep. And her will gradually disappeared.

Ray didn't see Luna's tears, but Stella did. And I instinctively realized what Luna was going to sue me for. Now I know Luna wants help, but I don't know exactly what to do with it. Stella could only stand up.

Luna realized she was speaking up to the lid.

"Witch, well done. Now my grief can also be fulfilled. I can fully manifest myself in a few moments. Give me some strength now."

The word gave terror to those who heard it cold, but it sounded like a sweet voice to Elise who was being manipulated. And he said, "Use my power. God!" he cries, laying flat on his knees.

"Witch, beneath me," Luna's voice sounds. Elise stood up to be attracted to the voice and poked one knee in front of Luna.

"Stand before me," he who took over Luna urges Elise to rise. Ellis is unable to think of anything, and stands up as he is told.

"Then give me strength," he said, putting his hand around Elise's neck. And slowly we put our strength into it. The power does not belong to a woman, but lifts Ealis with one hand.

Varma becomes even more desperate for the sight. When I thought it was all over, Luna took down Elise.

And I realize that the rampage of spiritual power that was swirling has stopped.

(What happened? Dear Elis, your son...)

I immediately understood what had happened.

There was an arrow piercing Luna's back as she slowly fell.

"Mi, my son!" He shouted in a squeamish voice.

Ray noticed that Luna's atmosphere had changed.

"They're starting to take over. An evil god is about to descend! No! Somebody stop that!

It was Stella who reacted to the words.

She immediately sets up the short bow she had and targets the defenseless Luna's back. But I thought about Ray and hesitated to let go of the strings.

As he patrolled for a few seconds, Elise suddenly rose. We thought we could shoot all the former killers Elise, but in this position Luna can't get in the way and put an arrow on Elise.

"No! The Evil God will take away my power! Run!" sounds Ray.

Stella instantly understood what Ray was concerned about. When Luna put her hand around Elise's neck, she also found out that the rampant force focused on Luna.

Stella was reflexively releasing an arrow. That's what I thought, it's better for Ray to lose his life in his own hands than to be taken over by the Evil God, and it suits Luna's wishes.

Stella's unleashed arrow stunningly pierced Luna's back. And slowly Luna fell.

Ray could only watch Luna, who was being taken over by evil gods, cursing his own powerlessness.

Although I intuitively figured out Luna was trying to kill Elise and gain that power, there's no hitter in a situation where magic can't be used.

When I was feeling desperate, I heard the sound of bowstrings being released and the wind of arrow feathers cutting.

"What?" he mutters, but soon realizes that an arrow stabbed Luna in the back. And I also understood that it was something Stella had unleashed.

"Stella!" she exclaimed in a voice close to screaming, but at the same time knew she was making the right choice.

The force that was swirling around Luna disappeared rapidly, and the severe air disappeared once and for all.

Stella said, "I'm sorry. This is all I have..." and kneel before Ray. Ray was speechless about what to say and all he could do was make her stand up.

Stella tried to say her apology again,

"That was the only way. I didn't think of anything... so Stella didn't do anything wrong. We need to cross over and cure magic sooner than that..."

The Unos, who have yet to order an investigation into how to cross the river, have not returned, and there is no way to get to the rock shelves.

Only a jittery rush recruits.

"My lords Uno would surely find me. Now we should think about the rest of this," Ashley said, giving Ray some leeway back. But you still can't grasp the situation, I muttered to myself.

"Right. I don't know what happened to Elise or Varma, and I don't see another wing demon. At least I was able to prevent the coming of evil gods, but Mr. Tsukiya..."

The solemn drama of Varma and Keira by Elis, which took place in the shadow of the rock shelves, was not visible from the Rays. That's why I was rubbing my mind about what was going on.

Five minutes later, the unos, who felt strange, came back in a hurry.

Uno poked one knee and said, "You're safe and above all,"

"I'm sorry. We couldn't find a place near here that we could cross."

Uno's report was that it was more than thirty meters wide (melt) and that there were no more affordable trees to throw ropes and hook on, making it difficult to cross by normal means.

As Ray worked the Unos, he began to think about what to do.

Around that time, Varma was trying to unlock the magic of paralysis hanging on herself. Due to the lack of magic and the difficulty of gathering strength due to the influence of the Spirit's rampage, it is difficult to disarm. But the shocking sight of Luna falling allows her to speak out, so she desperately casts a spell.

It takes about five minutes to finally complete the magic and solve the paralysis.

I immediately went under Luna and said, "Your son!," but a single arrow remained pierced on Luna's back.

I pull the arrow right through, but it was shallower than I thought. The black dress she wore was made of demonic material and barely penetrated. Still hang the healing magic and call for more. But Luna's consciousness doesn't come back.

Varma hangs healing magic on Elise as well with his remaining magic.

Elise is equally unconscious. Keira, who had been stabbed with a dagger by Elis, also still had breath, but had already almost lost her magic and could not apply her hand. Varma is puzzled by the situation.

(The healing magic should be working... Your son may still be under the influence of the Evil God, but how could Ellis... I feel sorry for Keira but I can't...)

I heard Ray, the white sorcerer, in Varma's ear.

"Lord Varma! Lord Ellis! If you're alive, give me a reply!

Varma wakes up a heavy body with out of magic.

"Your son is safe! But I'm out of magic..."

Ray blocked Varma's words,

"I don't have the means to get there! I'll throw the rope from here, so I want it fixed somewhere!

Varma said, "Okay!" I immediately acknowledge.

When the uno brackets the stone at the end of the rope and replaces the bronze, twirls the rope and starts to turn. And when the momentum gained, he threw it into the rock shelf. His skill reaches the rock shelf in a first-rate shot.

Varma immediately secured the rope to the rock and sent a signal.

The Rays cross the valley one after the other with Uno in the lead.

Arriving on the rock shelf, Ashley is stunned that Keira of the Winged Demon Clan is falling bloody.

"You stabbed your side? In response to the whine" who, "Varma replies in a self-derisive manner.

"Dear Elise, I was totally distracted. Even I had the magic of paralysis."

Ashley sends her gaze at Elise, who is falling beside Luna, as she shook her head to the side of the word. The ugly look on my face when I was distracted was gone, with a slightly distressed look, but I just thought Ashley had an extinct beauty asleep.

Shortly after that, Ray stepped down to the rocks.

Though surprised by Keira, who is also down, he quickly rushes under Luna.

And check with Varma about the condition of the back that received the arrow.

"It was a minor injury because of the clothes I was wearing. And healing is hanging, so the wound itself shouldn't be a problem."

Ray nods, calling out to Luna.

"Luna, it's me. It's Ray..." he calls out several times, but he doesn't respond at all. On the contrary, the heartbeat gradually weakens and the cheeks that were reddened turn pale.

(No. Not responding at all. Are you completely unconscious, or are you out of your mind in the ritual of divinity... I can't do that. I'm not even a psychiatrist... yes! Maybe......)

Ray turned to Luna's ear and spoke in Japanese.

"Mr. Lunar Palace! It's me, it's Saint Hijiri. It's my classmate's Holy" Hijiri "salute" Lei ". Mr. Lunar Palace, wake up... '

Varma asked the unfamiliar language, "What's that word?" and be vigilant. Because she felt like she had the power hidden in the word.

But Ashley said, "Ray and Luna are hometown. They say it's an old word for the land," he explains aggressively, "and Varma reconsiders that Ray will not harm Luna, and is convinced that" yes ".

Ray kept asking desperately, without listening to the exchange between the two.

Whether it played its part, the beat, which was weakening, stabilized and the blood color returned to his face. But her consciousness never returned.
