Chapter 81 – 81. Termination of Decision (3)
Unlike Alicia, who could only shoot the power of the wind and do nothing else, I ride the wind,
Wrap the wind around your body and bounce it away,
At the same time, rotation can be given to the weapon, and air pressure can be collected and released to deliver a large impact.
If you think about it, it’s such a versatile power.
“This kind of power is rotting away in your hands! It’s such a shame, isn’t it?”
-Why why!!! You can use the power of Sylphid!!! Why more than me…!!! Are you using it better?!!!
“Your spirit is amazing.”
-Wow…It’s a real golden sun itself. Why did I sign a contract with something like this?
“Who made the contract that was good for the Golden Sun? Moreover, I extracted your spirit core and made it possible for the next Spirit King to appear? You say that with your mouth, but your body is honest.”
Naturally, I caught him being angry at Elven Haim and his successor who made him like this and wanted revenge, and at the same time, I helped his successor, the Spirit King, be reborn into the world.
And as a result, she was helping me and helping beat Alicia up like this.
-I hate quick-witted guys like you the most.
The current Sylphid is the Spirit King of Wind, but is no longer the Spirit King of Wind.
To be precise, she has been distorted and eroded by my power, transformed to the point where she has some substance even in the form of spirit ether, and is in a state of mutation under the influence of my power in real time.
-Ah, really. I appreciate that, though.
And Alicia’s huge eyes turn to Sylphid, who is wrapping her arms around my shoulders. Originally, Sylphid had the form of a bird, but now that she has made a contract with me, she has strangely changed into a female form.
I often see a somewhat lighter, feminine appearance, but does this also vary depending on the contractor?
-Sylphie…De… You traitorous bitch!!! How dare you betray me!?
-It was your clan that betrayed you first, you damn bitch. After forcing you into a contract for which you were not qualified, what I faced was this kind of betrayal… Are you talking about betrayal? You? Everything you gave me, everything!!! It was meant to tie me down!!
Oh, this is hilarious.
Naturally, Sylphid continued to help us during the expedition to capture the Demon King. The problem was that Alicia was so slow that it exploded at a slow summoning speed, but once she emerged, even if she was a shabby level of spirit magic, she would support it with powerful destructive power.
I’m curious what the conversation these two will have will be like, but I have no intention of letting this continue. Well, I don’t have time for that.
Part of me wanted to kill him slowly, but I wanted to bring back a ‘comrade’ who had been with me for a long time…
Because I have to return that companion once again to those who are waiting for him.
The sun ball flower was enchanted, and a storm of flames that would finally burn the tree was prepared.
Spirit magic.
Basically, the basis of spirit magic is a school that is based on understanding all attributes and ‘natural phenomena’.
It is a school that only Elven Mages handle, and there are Elven Mages in Magia as well.
But the funny thing is, these bastards who came from Magia for the purpose of exchanging knowledge are absorbing knowledge from Magia, but the only things they actually tell Magia are useless things.
Some of them approached me, but I knew they had no intention of giving me what I wanted, so I refused to exchange knowledge with them, putting on ridiculous conditions.
That’s the story.
Well, it’s the essence of spirit magic.
While I was already watching Alicia’s low-level spirit magic, I was curious about what would happen when it reached the end, but there was a crucial problem here.
A magic that can only be used if you have a spirit.
I felt like the spirits were reluctant to me.
Now we know the reason, and of course the problem has been solved.
Silphid is by my side, embracing me, lending me strength.
Spiritual power is enough.
And now, the spirit magic sword I used as a result of my own research.
It’s time to give it back to Alicia.
It is time to recite the blessings of the old spirit magician.
“He who governs the air of the world, master of the winds of the world, queen of the breezes, lord of the storms! Here I am – Clark the Covenant – Dawn Bringer asks. Heed my request. My wind. “Follow my request, my three oaths, here. Your oath-covenant begs you here.”
-You, this… Ha! Is it? Few people know this congratulatory message. I really miss you. I thought I would never hear this again.
Of course not.
Information about the spirit magic that uncooperative Elven Mages have kept hidden. It’s a magic that I discovered after searching for them, personally finding them, deducing them, and deciphering their intricately twisted paths that no one but those who know them can understand.
They seem to have thought that they would not know this piece by piece, but in the end, magic is a circulation and flow of knowledge.
And inferring the flow through the passages and inferring its contents is not a task for me.
And ancient knowledge that was lost because they were not able to properly guard it among themselves.
And I pulled this out and restored that knowledge.
As a result, Carnesia also opened her eyes wide and looked at me.
Ah, it’s okay.
They only know how to defile the spirits in this way.
What is left of the Elven Haim royal family full of madness?
What can it be? It’s the start of a mess.
-You, you…What is that? What is that!!
Did he know something he didn’t know and feel the spirit’s power begin to amplify?
That’s because he must have felt that the difference in power between when he wrote it and when I ‘asked him to’ was significant. As an original user, I wondered what would happen if I didn’t even know the difference, but I guess I wasn’t that stupid.
Although this is a crueler moment because I am not a fool.
Anyway, I chewed it and spoke to Sylphid.
“Queen of the breeze – my first plea – for a wind that will blow away the dirt before my eyes.”
-I give permission.
As soon as those words fell, the wind stopped.
Like the calm before a storm, only a gentle breeze slowly begins to drift towards me and Carnesia.
I post a second congratulatory message.
“Storm Lord, my second plea is for the wind to tear apart the monster before my eyes.”
-No permission.
With those words, as if it had been quiet for some time, a storm begins to rage around the area.
As if the calm from before had gone somewhere, a razor-sharp wind blows through, tearing everything around, entangling my hammer and Carnesia’s rapier.
The blade of the storm, imbued with solar flame, was spinning with red flames.
And finally.
“Sylphid, Spirit King of the Wind – I, Clark, my ally, beg – bring the fury of the storm upon that damned monster.”
-I will allow it. Let’s go!!
Sylphide’s body turns into the wind and dwells in Carnesia.
-No, no!!! This can’t happen!!! Why, why are lower-class bastards like you…!!!! What is this sound…!!! You are better than me!!!
Is that all it takes to deny it?
Well, that’s good.
-This is nonsense!!!
“Ta-da, but there are no absolutes. So, shall we search?”
“…Pay for the crime and betrayal you committed, Alicia!!! This is your punishment as your aunt!!”
Oh wow, was that your aunt?
Of course, I knew that there were a lot of people in the age group of Canfs, as most of them have lived for over 1,000 years.
Well, that’s good.
-No, no, no!!!
Kwaaaaa!!!
The rapier’s illusory blade tears apart the remaining half of Alicia’s body – I raise the hammer and strike it down.
A storm of flames rose up creating a pillar of fire, and the huge tree began to burn and crumble.
And when everything finally crumbled and turned to ashes, there was a being who had once been an elf, crawling under the charred, charred floor, scratching the floor with his arms and only his upper body.
And before I moved there – I took a look at Carnesia, who was lying down from exhaustion after receiving the sudden spirit power, and asked.
“Are you okay, ‘Elf’?”
“…Carnesia.”
“?”
“It’s Carnesia.”
“What about the last name Elven Guard? Aside from that, that bastard bitch in front of me hates it so much.”
“…That means nothing now. Elven Haim betrayed us and drove us to our deaths. Now that name has no meaning.”
Oh, I see.
Well, that would be the same even if it were me. Just as I abandoned Magia, has she also lost all of her love for Elvenheim?
Well, I hope you find something good in the end.
And I said, looking at the charred elf who was still crawling on the floor trying to survive.
“Bastard, what are you doing?”
“…Save me… Clark…I was your colleague…”
A colleague.
Hmm.
Quad Deuk!!
In the end, I couldn’t bear it any longer and just blew off one of the damn elf’s arms.
Kwaduk!!
No, two.
-Ah ah ah ah ah…
A trembling body that couldn’t even scream properly. I said to it, looking at it now crawling on the floor like a bug, with no arms or legs.
“…You said you were a friend, so why did you abandon me and run away? If you still have the mouth to speak, it would be better to talk. Before I tear you to death even more cruelly here.”
-I wanted to live… I wanted to live… Because I wanted to live… And everyone has that too. You and I…We all wanted to live…So we tried not to die…That’s right. You, too, killed the Magia wizards to survive.
Even though his voice sounds grotesquely distorted, he knows nothing but himself, and you and I are the same. I did it because I wanted to live, and didn’t you also slaughter countless people to survive?
The number of wizards I killed during my two years of running away exceeded three figures, and the number of paladins and assassins also exceeded three figures.
How can you equate a wizard who couldn’t even use magic to fight desperately to survive and run away leaving his friends in danger because he didn’t want to die?
She is a truly horrendous bitch who only knows herself.
“Royal Blood, who didn’t have to worry about his life at all. You, who are royals but don’t have any abilities and are not at risk of being checked by the royal authority, so you are not at risk of any threat to your life. Are you the same as me who came to catch the devil myself to clean up the shit I made, you idiot?”
-Please…Please save me…I am the heir to the throne of Elven Haim…I will die…From someone like you.
How can I kill this in the most horrible way?
It was a time when I was so worried.
Solias approaches.
Solias, who was in the tomb, comes in front of me accompanied by Adramelech.
Ha, really.
“…If you really don’t want to be torn to pieces, why don’t you back out? I’m in a bad mood right now, but if you mess around here for no reason, I’ll kill you all first.”
If you talk nonsense, I will kill you.
The hardships I went through, the false accusations, the deaths of my colleagues and the almost death I suffered because of this damn bitch. And even Gawain, who came back from the dead.
So many people suffered.
The price of running away from one’s duty was that it caused great harm to many people, and this was a sin that could never be forgiven even if it meant more punishment than I could think of.
“I’m not here to disturb you Clark.”
And Solias said to me:
Naturally, light extends from Solias’ hand.
Through that light, I could see that Solias had regained some of his strength.
I ask Nia if she touched Via.
“Bia, you’re still alive. But… I can’t hold on for long.“
“…Really? Surprising, I thought I would touch that.“
It was surprisingly unexpected.
But…
After light extends from Solias’ hand, blood begins to flow from Alicia’s eyes, which were burning pitch black.
-…No, no…
“?”
-This, this cannot be real. No!!! No!!!! Elven Haim, High Elf!!!! High elves can’t exist like that!!! A noble high elf- it can’t be!!! It can’t be!!!! What kind of crazy talk is this? High elves are descendants of the most noble goddess!!! Why does such a being have to die for a lower species!!! Why?! Why!!!!!
No, why does he suddenly say such nonsense?
Naturally, I looked at Solias, but Solias looked down at Alicia with a look full of disdain, and then she turned to me and smiled.
“…Noble high elf. You’re saying something funny. These are ‘herbs’ that were created to widely benefit humans. Do these things really think they’re great?”
“What did you do?”
“It’s nothing much. I just told you the ‘truth’ from a long time ago. Sometimes the truth is a worse poison than a lie. Did you say that? The World Tree, and the Mandrake of that World Tree that doesn’t cry. And its identity and its purpose. By now, you know. “Won’t you?”
“…Is it livestock?”
Solias nods at that. When I thought about it, I had no interest in any beings other than this woman and humans. In addition to humans, dwarves, elves, and other beastmen also serve her, but if you look at her behavior and such, she favors only humans and discriminates against the rest.
“Why are those herbs so damn strong?”
“This is how medicines that are good for the body are originally used.”
…
Fuck, that’s medicine?
The High Elves and their royal family, who show off their supremacy by beating up humans while saying, “I am Groot,” Are the cure. What is this?
But if you think about it another way, it was a time when Solias was strong, and if a creature was created with that intention, it would be natural to just capture and raise livestock and kill them so that they could save and save the humans they care about.
We are told not to judge the present based on the common sense of the past, but how many people in their right mind would accept it if we were told that they were born with that fate in the first place?
“If it’s Alicia’s heart that you pulled out, it will be enough to save your comrades. It’s an extremely weak power and energy, but with that much power, you can save your comrades. And you, you don’t have to worry. That’s right. Your ‘heart’ contains too many impurities to make it difficult to save a single person.”
“…What is that now-“
“I am Solias. I am Solias, the Goddess of Creation.”
“…Solias…?”
“What is this, goddess?”
“…Hey, Clark!!”
Of course, she introduces herself as a goddess, but from my perspective, she is just a ‘Champi 1’ who only comes to eat and eats.
To begin with, it has never been of much help in direct combat.
Even when I was a demilich, all I had to do was not die.
And when I see Alicia, foaming at the mouth and bleeding tears in her eyes, convulsing as if she had witnessed the truth, I feel pity for her.
Is this what it would be like if people went crazy after seeing something they shouldn’t have seen somewhere deep and dark? In a situation where there are magicians who go crazy because they see something they shouldn’t, it’s natural that they go crazy when it goes beyond the scope of human perception.
-Hey, hehe- This can’t be reality. This – this can’t be true – I, I am a livestock to save the lower races, it can’t be like this… Hehe!!!!
Tsk.
…
I don’t know why I say this, but Solias, why are you acting like this?
Before I picked up the hammer and tried to take my last breath, there was a hand holding my collar.
“Clarke.”
“Why.”
“…He’s such an idiot, but he’s my blood relative. Let me finish it.”
Carnesia calls me and asks me a favor. Naturally, she wants to be allowed to end her life herself. It looks like she is shocked in many ways, but especially when she looks at Alicia, who was one of her blood relatives, even though her pride was sky-high, Carnesia begged me to let her end her life.
Seeing that there was nothing left to break, I decided to leave it to Carnesia.
“Let them take care of it.”
“…Thanks.”
Even if you say thank you.
I asked Solias before I could hear the laughter of Alicia, who was crying tears of blood in her eyes and just tearing herself apart, unable to accept reality.
“…How long have you been messing around?”
“That’s because I loved the people who needed me.”
“…”
“Because I love them, isn’t it natural to save and care for them as much as I love them?”
…Is it.
“If people forget God and don’t need God – then what am I? What on earth does a forgotten god exist for?”
Well.
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to trust humans a little more?”
I don’t trust humans.
I do not believe in their ugliness and the ugliness of trying to drag them down and trample on them if they are even slightly different from me. I despise, laugh at, and ridicule those who are worse than me. Because I saw their ugliness, because I saw their wickedness.
I saw that they were more vicious than any monsters I had ever dealt with, and that Tio was so ugly that he was a nobleman.
Of course I can’t do that.
“I can’t do that. If you loved humans that much, I think waiting would have been the answer, waiting for them to come back at any time.”
I don’t know about the coexistence of humans and monsters that Eris mentioned.
It’s about whether the two can live together.
Even if beings who have lived in different environments all their lives meet in an instant and live together, will there really be no conflict? We don’t know what will happen in that conflict. Maybe they say they can’t live together, or they break up after difficulties.
Alternatively, it could be a method of luring humans from the beginning and using them as seed sowers and stallions.
“I wouldn’t be able to do that even if I lived my whole life. If it were you, I could have done that. If I understood your feelings and cared enough to make something like that… Well, at least I know that you felt a great sense of betrayal. .”
You must have felt a great sense of betrayal when you saw them being taken over by monsters. Well, after having his liver and gallbladder removed, who wouldn’t do that if he turned his eyes to another woman?
Anyway, I have nothing more to say about it, now it’s up to you to figure it out yourself.
No matter what I say, it’s something she did, and something she has to solve on her own.
“Just figure it out.”
And after saying that, I look at Alicia.
It’s refreshing to see something dragging you to death like that, but looking at it now, I feel so fucking pitiful.
If I were just a brain in a vat and woke up to a happy life as a dream, maybe there were people watching me.
Brother, is this guy smiling? There may be situations where you do this.
Anyway, it’s refreshing to see Alicia like that, but it’s also cruel.
I would have just slit his throat. It’s a bit pitiful to let him die while telling him such terrible truths.
Fuuuuuk-
And finally-
Alicia’s laughter stopped with a short sound, and the traitor finally lost his breath.
As soon as that happened, Eris appeared.
And dark elves.
Among the dark elves, Carnetia and Carnetia’s gaze met each other.
“Stop, I didn’t come to fight, Carnesia.”
“…Carnetia.”
Hmm.
I heard that the names are somehow similar.
After one problem ends, does another problem begin?
Well, that’s good.
And-
“Clarke!!!!”
Black hair and golden eyes flying towards me from above. There was a witch flying with a shining brooch.
And I look at her and stretch out her arms towards her.
Mira, my sister came to me as is, and feeling the heavy weight on my chest as she was held in my arms, I felt relieved.
“Good job Clark! You got through it well!! Of course, I knew you could do it, Clark! Hehe! Well done! Do you want to touch your breasts Clark?”
Any time later.
“…?”
And I feel the stinging gaze.
Naturally, it was Carnesia who was the subject of harsh eyes.
Why not?
At the same time, a sylphid appeared next to me, looking at it and whistling.
-Oh, is that…Perhaps?
And my sister also looks at it.
I looked at the sylphid and wondered if it was on guard for something, but that wasn’t the case. I was alert because something was revealed right next to me, but at the same time, I was interested as I looked at the spirit that had become a ‘living creature’ of a type I had never seen before.
If you look at the brightly shining eyes, my sister is also a natural wizard who wants to study.
Well, he was born to the archmage Marcus Dawn Bringer, so that’s basic.
“Clarke, what about that next to you?”
“Wind Spirit King…Was he?”
Now, it’s completely different to say he’s the Spirit King of Wind. To put it bluntly, it is a being that has been transformed and completely transformed by my power. And as soon as she confirmed her presence, not only Carnetia but also Iyo Eris looked with surprised eyes, and at the same time, my older sister looked at her and exchanged a look with her Sylphid, and then said to me.
“Now you’re starting to look a little more like a golden sun, Clark. Hehe.”
“?”
“…Clarke, would you like to hear an explanation?”
Carnesia continues.
Putting aside the strangely uncomfortable relationship I had with Carnetia just now, she appears to be focusing her attention on me. And she asks me to explain it.
Why are you acting like this all of a sudden, bitch?
My sister also said “Oh” And then laughed and answered instead.
“Mummy – Dawn Bringer.”
“…”
“For now, just keep that in mind. Hehe.”
“No-“
“Shh.”
Before I could say anything, a mischievous smile appeared on my sister’s lips. And there was a strange feeling in Carnesia’s gaze as she looked at me and Mira alternately.
And, as a bonus, Eris is also looking at me with her exciting eyes.
At the same time, Carnetia…
“Geumtaeyang, what on earth did you do to my ‘nephew’?”
What kind of crazy talk is this again?
Of course I answered that.
“He was the one who came to kill me in the first place, but isn’t it me who suffered something?”
“…I was rude.”
Quick apples, very good.
Of course, one big event has ended, and now we have seen all the fun in Gehenna.
“I have a lot of things to explain, but right now I have urgent work to do. Please bear with me if you think I’m being rude. I have urgent work to do right now.”
Now all that’s left is to revive a fallen comrade.
