Chapter 89 – Large Monsters – 4
Avon Franz held onto his throbbing arm and looked up at the sky.
Her golden hair fluttered, and her golden eyes blazed. The appearance of a transcendent son. A brilliant light emanating from such a son was illuminating the whole area.
Golden radiance.
Seeing such a son, Avon Franz is his father in the past. And he remembered the story of his father’s father.
Very distant past.
A time when people weren’t human.
An era in which only a small number of humans could be born with magical powers.
The humans at that time were those with magical powers. An era in which those born with blue blood were said to be true people, and all other humans were mere slaves.
Those with magical powers called themselves gods, and in fact many humans knelt before them and bowed their heads. They fear, and sometimes worship, their superhuman appearance. I had faith in my heart.
Can we call them stupid?
With their gestures and words, nature collapses and a new nature is created. That figure must be called a god.
I guess so.
Avon also understood their feelings.
See
That’s it.
It is the sun.
* * *
You can feel the sunlight radiating from your body. I felt myself becoming the sun, not an artificial light mass like the sun I had created. Of course, compared to the real sun, there are still many flaws.
It was only after I became like this that I realized.
It was foolish to judge the power of the sun with simple common sense. Wasn’t the power and magic I had in the first place the fantasy itself?
The problem was that I looked at the world only with the knowledge I had and the common sense of my previous life.
I lowered my gaze.
I saw a lizard hiding in the dark. In accordance with my will, the world brightens as the light shines down.
“Quaaaaagh!”
Lizards screamed in pain as the light fell on the area and jumped out of the air.
“It is impossible to hide from the sun.”
Let there be light reminds me of a story about a god in his previous life who created the world in seven days when day and night appeared.
If night means sleeping hidden in the dark, day when the sun shines means that everything is revealed under the light.
Now the sun is shining
No one can hide in this realm filled with light.
However, the area is extremely small. You can tell instinctively. This realization… It can be known because he noticed quite a few facts with ?.
The space I can control with my magical power is about the size of this hill. It can be said to be moderately wide, but it is an uneasy size if the opponent is a large monster.
We need to finish it before he notices and runs away.
I flicked my fingertips.
As a signal, the light flickers.
Unfortunately, I do not have the magic of light. Sun and light. There is a difference between the two. While using the light emitted from the sun, the light itself cannot be used. Why is that?
Even if I flip common sense, I can’t clearly distinguish the difference with my head. But there are definitely differences in this world. It’s not just common sense, it’s probably a matter of concept based on the standards of this world.
So it’s a pity that I can’t say that famous line while using light. At least something similar can be done.
Point your finger at the lizard.
The light fluctuates and answers my will. The light of the sun compressed at the fingertips. The dazzling thing answered my will and headed for the lizard.
“Have you ever been kicked at near-light speed?”
One stem.
The mass of light from the sun’s energy becomes a beam of light and targets the lizard.
Its speed is infinitely close to that of light.
Before the lizard was aware of it, the huge body hidden in the space slid to the floor at the moment it was shaken by the impact of light.
-Kuuuuu!
“Kwaaaaagh!”
What kind of attack Why did the hidden self get attacked? I saw the look of a confused lizard. However, if you look at the area where it was hit, there are only traces of being hit, but there is no trace of being pierced by a beam of light.
In that fleeting moment, I felt the mana power strengthening the scales. It’s probably that one isn’t enough.
“Then continue and stop.”
It’s daytime now.
The real sun is floating in the sky.
Converts the sun’s energy from the sky into magical power. It is still a long way to use solar energy as magic power like a solar power plant, but it is helpful enough to steal even a small amount of energy through solar heat.
-Geeeeeing!
Light rises
One, two, three… Small beads of light floating around. … Their number increases As for the actual speed of light, I don’t know. Each one of those light masses moves at a speed close to that of light and strikes it. Is that all? I could feel the air around me boiling. A single ball of light, high enough to make the atmosphere boil.
The lizard looking up at the sky flinched. What was reflected in those fear-stained eyes was my figure surrounded by a huge mass of light.
Laughed
“Die.”
No more time wasted
-Quaaaaagh!
* * *
“Father! Are you okay?”
“Whoa. Are you okay. Okay.”
After a fierce battle is over. After confirming that the lizard had stopped breathing, I immediately came down to the ground and approached my father.
His pale complexion is still the same, but the reason why he feels more comfortable than before is probably because he turned his body’s magic power to healing.
I looked at my father’s arm. His heart throbbed at the sight of the disappearance of the traces beneath his shoulders.
With one expectation, I touched my father’s shoulder with a trembling hand.
“… Magic power.”
“Yes.”
I closed my eyes tightly.
I tried to open my mouth with a trembling mouth, but I couldn’t bear it to the end.
I heard my father laugh at my appearance.
“Are you laughing?”
Unbeknownst to me, the tone came out as if I was complaining.
My father’s eyes looking at me were softer than usual.
“No. Right.”
The father spoke and closed his mouth. It’s like he doesn’t know what to say.
He nodded his head and put his hand on my head. He could feel his father’s thick hand caressing his hair.
“Good job. Leo.”
“… Really.”
Father’s eyes and warm words made my throat choke involuntarily.
It has been different since I was born. I can’t help it. I was born with memories from my previous life. It is reincarnation.
Starting with this person in front of me, the woman I called mother, and the man I called brother. I couldn’t treat everyone like a real family. Inevitably, there was a distance between the families.
But.
“You are all grown up now.”
With a more relaxed face than usual. Seeing my father say that with a messed up look made me cry.
Right.
I didn’t think so, but after all, these people… It’s my family
* * *
“Leo-sama, be safe… !? Oh my God, the head of the household?!”
As soon as he appeared, he smiled bitterly at Chloe’s screaming appearance. Behind him, I saw Isabelle, as pale as her father.
And that’s not all. I felt several signs running from afar. It must be the troops that returned with my father.
“Ha.”
A sigh came out.
The damage was also avoided, but the father’s arm was the problem.
You can’t go back to the way it was before. There is no way to regenerate an arm that has already been eaten. In particular, the problem is that it is not cut off by simple physics.
A body cut with pure magical power can be healed over a long period of time. But the opponent was the problem.
A ripped arm along with the flow of magical power that composes the body with the same magical power as the guy. In particular, even if the lizard completely digested the arm, even if it regenerated, it was only a cosmetic.
“I feel sorry for you and Aidan. My plans are all messed up.”
“That is not the problem.”
I understand what my father said, but it’s not something to say right away.
I let out a sigh as I watched the tumult slowly grow around me.
“Leo.”
Looking at me like that, my father said.
Pale complexion. Disheveled hair. Still, his eyes slowly began to burn.
“I was going to entrust Müller’s stability to Aidan, but I can’t do that now that I’m like this.”
“Father.”
There is a limit to the father’s injury, no matter how much rumors are suppressed.
Explode someday
Rumors that Franz’s full power was injured are reason enough for other lords around him to have different feelings.
“Before that, I have to formally hand over the position of head of the household to Aidan.”
It’s not a bad timing to step down.
In the war, my older brother said he had done enough for one person.
If you inherit the family right now, there won’t be any problems. His vassals were also ready to follow his older brother.
“Then…”
However, the older brother is in the middle of improving his internal affairs skills while taking care of the original Muller. The saying that he will immediately hand over the position of head of household to such an older brother means that he will be called back to Franz.
That means that.
“Go to Müller’s land.”
Land of war. The land that is still confused. Go to the place that is now Franz’s land.
And become the true owner of the land.
