Chapter 118 – Aria (5)
The attack through the light limited the field of view.
Physical power is also not negligible.
If you keep hitting it, it will become a well-minced meat.
Karelin clicked her tongue and moved her leg.
“You dodged well, I really can’t ignore age.”
“A young blue one!”
“Can you afford to be so angry?”
In Karelin’s blind spot, a beam of her light became lodged.
Whoa!
It was a blow that broke her bones.
She stumbled and immediately got herself into her stance.
It is because of the continuous hits of the light rushing incessantly.
It’s not comparable to the speed of light, but its speed far exceeds that of normal magic.
Karelin was hit again.
A stifled cry escaped from her mouth.
“Keugh!”
“Don’t be sore when you’re not sick. I suffered more than that.”
She was going according to plan, step by step.
I thought that in a little while I could save you with these hands.
It seemed that the end of the long journey was finally in sight.
A vague hope arose.
It was such a situation.
Why is she suffering herself?
The other half who is not even a hero to the saintess?
“Cool!”
Her body was pinned to the wall.
The dust rises thickly.
A follow-up hit came as if he didn’t want to give him a moment’s respite.
Karelin pulled out of the wall with all her might.
With a slight difference, a beam of light flew in belatedly and hit the wall.
Quagga gaga gag!
The walls seemed to be collapsing.
I didn’t look closely because she was in a hurry to avoid it, so I don’t know what happened specifically.
Karelin glared at Arya.
Her hair turned white.
Her eyes are also red.
It’s like she reminds me of her before.
There are not too many cases to think about in this situation.
“… Awakening?”
Unlike the former warriors, the former saints did not have a strong awakening.
At most, only a span of white hair could be seen?
It was extremely rare, or never, to have been completely bleached like that.
“Karelin. I know what you are going to do.”
Arya’s tone was calm.
On the face of it.
She wasn’t Karelin who couldn’t grasp her underlying hostility and her disdain.
So she reacted more violently.
Her attitude, as if she knows everything about what she has been sacrificing for, is unsettling.
“You know what you’re talking about!”
A beam of light hit Karelin again.
It was a strong attitude that he would not allow her refutation.
After her beating, Karelin shut her mouth and glared at Arya.
“I know a lot, at least I pride myself on knowing more than you.”
Arya looked at her own comrades with her wistful eyes.
Einstein, Azazel, Leon, Edelis.
All met a cruel conclusion.
I will definitely protect them from that this time.
After checking Arya’s eyes, Karelin flinched and trembled.
This woman now was different from Arya, who used to be lethargic.
She was not a weak saint to take advantage of.
The wick is different.
“… You.”
Arya interrupted Karelin.
“We have a lot of trouble trying to save the dead.”
Karelin held her breath.
The motive for making the vessels called the hero and the saint had never been disclosed to anyone.
How could this woman know that?
Are you floating?
Let’s not be agitated.
Just dismiss it as mere nonsense.
“You’re bragging too much, are you saying you even peeked into the future?”
“Yes. I saw a future where you were betrayed by the Wandering Moon God and fell into the Maw.”
Pop.
Her hair turned white as white paper.
Are you betrayed?
I?
It was a strangely realistic future to dismiss as no.
Karelin shook her head with effort.
“A blatant lie!”
Is the wandering moon god betraying himself?
It’s nothing more than a threatening statement.
She made an unbreakable oath with him.
There is no gap in the promise.
As Karelin tried to deny her reality, Arya raised her hand.
The cluster of lights was concentrated in one spot in an instant.
“It’s none of my business, though.”
Aaaaang!
The light was compressed and exploded, creating high temperatures and hot winds.
Concentration of light.
It is a skill taught by someone who has now disappeared.
At least Arya will not forget ‘her she’.
Already put it in her heart.
“Quaaaaagh!”
A desperate scream rang out.
Burning is one of the greatest pains a person can feel.
There is no mention of such a punishment as being burned forever in religion.
But Arya didn’t even blink.
Even so, it is the target of revenge.
I won’t show the same pity.
“Your activity will end here.”
It burns.
Karelin’s body roared like firewood.
She cried out, feeling the intense heat.
“Laugh, don’t be fooled!”
I extinguished the flames that clung to her body.
And created metal around it.
Power of the Holy Sword.
Iron talk.
All of the countless metals were in the form of swords.
Swords that reach a thousand waters.
The sword becomes a stream and pours down on Arya.
“How did you get here!”
It’s been a long time.
Because once in a while is good.
I just ran all the way because I wanted to see your smile.
Turning your eyes to the things sacrificed in the process.
Only for her own success and survival.
It was a path marked by sacrifice.
That’s not correct.
However, his will was stronger than anyone else.
The desire to see the one you love.
That ugly and long campaign is about to end.
I didn’t run here to be stopped and lose in vain.
“Are you going to give up!”
Can’t give up
I want to see them
I want to save them.
So I want to talk
That it’s been hard
That I missed you so much
I lived a long time stained with regret.
It wasn’t even alive.
Karelin was a living corpse.
A corpse unable to let go of the string of hope.
“All of the girls!”
The generated metal sword randomly attacked Arya’s surroundings.
Arya smiled bitterly at the desperate act and created a film of light.
T-T-DD-DDING!
An incessant metallic sound rang out.
Long, long
Contrary to that loud noise, none of the swords touched Arya.
Like an insurmountable wall, it blocked all swords.
Do not reach
That fact made Karelin impatient.
Arya watched the impatient Karelin.
“He must have refused to sacrifice himself and ran to save Edris and Erine.”
It was a straight line.
Karelin shut her mouth.
“But do you know how they must have felt that you were trying to save them?”
“Shut up.”
“They didn’t want you to feel sorry or sad for them. They are people who would rather live a new life than cling to the dead. You would have just wanted to enjoy your life without getting caught up in revenge or the past.”
“Shut up! You don’t know!”
“No, I know. I know all too well how it feels when you lose something precious.”
Deep remorse.
Karelin raised her eyes.
For an instant, the eyes she saw were the eyes of a person who had really lost her.
Arya walks.
“But no amount of suffering can ever justify the people you sacrificed.”
“Ha, a saintess who was made up is trying to preach to a girl!”
Arya shrugged her shoulders at Karelin’s sharp words.
“Nope. What kind of sermon can I say? On the contrary, I even sympathize with Karelin. Maybe I would have done the same if I had been slightly out of direction.”
Arya advances.
Towards Karelin.
“Do not come!”
Her shout.
The saintess doesn’t care.
Silently she moved her steps toward her own foe.
Karelin’s resistance intensified.
A storm of blades is flying, targeting only Arya.
Even the round protective shield around her was nicked.
Shiver.
The recoil made her blood flow from Arya’s nose.
Seeing the situation, Karelin snorted at her.
Then it is.
It’s an overwhelming power, but it seems that there is no price.
“Ha, ha, I think you’re not feeling well too?”
“As long as you live, you can shed a nosebleed.”
She responded with nothing and wiped her philtrum with the back of her hand.
Karelin instinctively stepped back from her.
I felt a strange pressure from Arya’s actions.
“… Uh?”
And she realized
Karelin, what did she do.
It ran away
From Arya.
‘You said I was scared?’
If Aria goes a step further.
Karelin took a step back.
The process was not repeated infinitely.
It felt hard and cold.
My back touched the wall.
There was nowhere to run now.
“You must have missed it. If not, you will have to face the reality without them.”
It was a word that pinched her inner feelings that she had been hiding.
Karelin’s face began to show her long-forgotten feelings.
A clear fear of others.
Her fear that this is her own destination.
Raw emotions ran through her head.
It was an unfamiliar feeling, as if she had returned to Karelin, a weak girl, rather than a confident holy sword.
“Karelin. Running away to escape a situation doesn’t make it any better.”
Know.
That’s a story you already know.
But knowing and doing are two different things.
He had no choice but to do so.
If you were in my situation, you certainly would.
So don’t talk like you’re alone, pretending to be holy.
On a more dirty topic than anyone else.
All kinds of insidious words run through my head.
The words that came out were just pleading.
“Don’t do it. I’ll be quiet, so please save me.”
He hasn’t been able to save them yet.
If they die here, who will save them?
Who else but me!
“Karelin.”
As a solemn judge pronounces a sentence, the aria speaks.
A light shines in her hand.
“It’s time to face the things you’ve been ignoring and avoiding.”
Karelin thought the light was somehow warm.
