103. Ru. (3)

Wheeying!

A strong wind suddenly blows over the pier.

A middle-aged man frowned in the sea breeze.

“…… What kind of wind blows like this?”

There’s a strong wind blowing at the pier. It was an ordinary thing.

For some reason, the wind that was blowing was unpleasant.

The moment the man muttered that.

The strong wind blew a dark color.

“That’s another moose… ….”

Greuk.

And then an unrealistic landscape unfolds.

The middle-aged man who was unable to speak and grabbed his neck collapsed with his throat cut off.

He died instantly without even realizing that he was going to die.

Soon after, the dark wind that had simply cut off her man’s head gathered and took on the shape of her woman.

The breathing prophet of disaster.

Pirone.

She seemed to have no interest in the man who had lost her head and collapsed. Stepping on his corpse, Pirone caught her breath.

[…] … Ha. Ha. It was true that the remaining fragments of the power of the ancient gods could hasten their resurrection.]

Right after the summoning of the regenerating calamity happened. Pirone left the spot without any regrets.

That was a very wise move.

The reason I was able to resurrect my ‘father’ was because a part of him was asleep under the ship’s course.

In many ways, it was a gamble with a low chance of success.

If I had to choose between failure and success, the outcome of this gamble would have been clearly ‘success’.

The father and mother of all the demons called ‘catastrophe’ by humans.

An evil spirit.

They are basically immortal.

Even if he dies, he will not die, and even if he dies, he will be resurrected after some time.

Only the prophets closest to the evil spirit know the time of the resurrection of the evil spirit.

According to the prophet of regenerating disaster, it was decades at the earliest that he would enter the time of resurrection.

However, what appeared in front of Pirone was clearly a catastrophic disaster.

…… Because he sacrificed the holy relics of the ancient gods, he hastened his resurrection.

I thought it might be theoretically possible.

Since that speculation has become reality. Pirone had an obligation to inform the other demons of that information.

If you use that fact…….

Resurrecting all the demons wouldn’t be impossible either.

Above all.

As long as Pirone himself remains to protect the disaster, nothing will change.

It would be fortunate if I didn’t die from a blinding attack while on a ship.

[…] … Whoa. Heh.]

Wow!

Pirone looked back at his mop-like body and let out a long breath.

Dark blood was still dripping from his severed arm.

The power of the bugs on the ship was beyond my imagination.

A silver-haired magician of the 8th circle.

And even the red-haired swordsman who was superior beyond my imagination.

It was calculated that the magician of the 8th circle would be a threatening enemy.

Because it was that year that killed the ‘melting’ calamity that had descended incompletely in the past.

Just…… Kale. The swordsman’s skills were unexpected.

Did you say you were the winner of the ‘Mutuje’ this time?

During that short battle, he almost cut his throat several times, even though he used his full power to burn his life.

It’s a shame because I was lucky. Perhaps, if he was just a little bit unlucky, he would have died and fell to the ground right away.

Among humans, I remember a few threatening names.

The 8th circle mage I mentioned earlier, ‘Lucia’.

Aion Reinhardt, called the Sword King of the Empire.

Up to ‘Yeon’, the current chieftain of the northern Eunrang tribe.

However, I had never heard of the name Cale before Mutuje.

Since Azazel gave up on Mutuje’s championship and stepped back, I thought he was the one who won the championship simply by fluke.

If you fought normally…… You can’t even guess victory.

Magic power and aura itself are very insignificant.

When I was dealing with him, I felt an unknown sense of difference, and in fact, he cut off my arm at the moment I felt sorry for him.

[…] … Tsk. This wound will take a while to regenerate.]

However, I left behind a calamity that regenerates against such enemies, so I had no worries.

Pirone arrived at a pier far away from the ship.

It was never at a distance where the ship could be seen with the naked eye.

It was to the point where I could feel the demonic energy of the disaster regenerating from the other side of the sea.

Of course, since he is the same demon, it will take a long time for him to feel his demonic energy.

The amount of magic was like the never drying sea.

There is a reason why humans have given the name ‘catastrophe’ to evil spirits.

Supreme of all evil.

Unless it was incompletely resurrected for some reason, an existence that cannot be countered with individual power alone.

You could say that itself is a kind of law.

Regenerating Calamity is not a god that excels in terms of power, but the Empire’s army will have to be fully mobilized to deal with even him.

If it’s to ‘kill’ the disaster that regenerates beyond that, well.

At least from what Pirone remembers.

47 Years ago, when the regenerating disaster descended, he did not die even against hundreds of thousands of imperial troops.

The bugs on board were menacing, but they were also at the level of humans.

The reason why a sorceress named Lucia was able to kill the melting disaster.

That’s because he was resurrected in a very imperfect state.

And the regenerating disaster that descended this time was not something like an “Incomplete” Advent.

A human sword and human magic cannot reach the true ‘God’.

However, it is necessary to gather demons before starting to prepare for the disaster that regenerates in the empire.

Pirone, which was about to turn into wind again and disappear, hesitated.

[…] … Uh?]

Vivid magic that can be felt even across the sea.

Maggie from ‘Regenerating Disaster’…… It was fading

That said, it was one thing.

A sea that never dries up.

A ‘regenerating disaster’ that can’t be defeated by just a few humans…… Talk about dying.

[No, that can’t be…….]

Pirone denied the unreal reality, but the reality was cold.

──Damn it.

A weakly shrunken Magi. Completely annihilated

The catastrophe to play is dead.

…… Only by human hands.

* * *

After the battle is over and the sealing of ‘Lu’ is completed.

I saw the glass curtain disappear and I slowly approached Lu, who had her eyes closed.

The appearance of Lou tightly closing his eyes as if he were dead.

In a way, he seems to be sleeping.

For some reason, I felt my heart hurt when I closed my eyes.

I naturally accepted Lou and opened my mouth in a low voice.

“Lucia, this… ….”

“It went well. At first glance, it may look like a normal sleep, but……. Time is completely stopped around him.”

Lucia speaks as if she has a sense of what she’s going to say before I can finish my words.

Only then did she feel relieved, so she let out a short sigh.

I didn’t lose…….

I couldn’t protect her because I was helpless.

That said, she didn’t lose either.

Just like we lost Ciela in her previous episode.

Just as she lost her father and mother, and lost Sir Dagnes and my people.

…… Lou could not have lost.

But you won’t be able to like it all.

The reason I was able to save Lou was because of a stroke of luck close to heaven.

It was because of the whims of the ancient gods and Lu and Lucia who could make good use of them.

If it wasn’t for Lou…….

Without such a thing, all life on this ship might have been killed by a regenerating catastrophe.

No, it’s probably almost obvious.

Today, I was so helpless.

I knew that the future was changing after the return, but I did not earnestly try to become stronger.

I never neglected my training though.

Now that is not enough.

From noble mtl dot com

Since a ‘disaster’ has already emerged. You don’t know when and where another disaster will pop up again, and a prophet will pop up again.

Now I was able to kill the regenerating disaster with the help of ‘Lu’. There will be no such help next time.

‘…… I have to be strong.’

The disaster will resurface in a few years, and there is no time to laugh hahahaha.

The only thing that’s certain is that we need to recover enough strength that we won’t be helpless even if disaster reappears.

Lu’s looking for a way to unseal her and allow her to keep her life.

We need to regain the power of the previous round.

I wonder if I’ve been clenching my fists for a while, feeling like I’ve suddenly had a mountain of things to do.

“Kale, kale! Your hand!”

Belatedly coming to my senses at Lucia’s call, I checked my palm.

Perhaps he clutched at the wound, his palms were covered in blood.

…… I forgot.

Come to think of it, I slashed my sword at random to enter the barrier.

Loo that idiot. I made the barrier hard for no reason.

“Oops.”

As soon as I realized that, my palms became sore belatedly, so I smiled after saying that.

More than me with the torn palm, Lucia in front of her was flustered.

“Uh, what should I do? Magical power is too much to use recovery magic……. Oops. Cale, does it hurt a lot?”

“It doesn’t hurt that much.”

“Don’t lie! She swung the sword with her torn hand, and it’s in a mess because she just grabbed it!”

That tidyer.

Still, it wasn’t a lie to say that it didn’t hurt that much.

I even had my arm cut off in the previous episode, but what? Lou put it on right away.

It’s nothing compared to this little bit of bitterness.

Perhaps even Lucia knows that much…….

“Geuuu…” ….”

“No, you idiot! Hey! Don’t cast magic in that state!”

It was suddenly quiet, so I did something, and Lucia, who was casting healing magic with her exhausted magic, was foaming at her mouth.

I hesitated because the habit I had been doing with Lu subconsciously came out, but first I shook Lucia to dry it.

You seem smart, but sometimes you’re so fierce.

…… However, he did not know why he was so often blind.

It must have been because he worried about me that much.

My heart, which had been disturbed by the disaster, was blown away lightly to the point of being funny.

Instead, another thought crossed my mind.

‘That idiot likes you a lot, although not as much as I do.’

The words Lou said before going to sleep.

Remembering that, I was silent for a while.

I know that Lucia likes me.

There was virtually confirmation from ‘Lu’, and she herself did not deny it.

Then should I accept Lucia’s heart?

A wish with you…… I’m not sure if I can call this cheating.

‘It’s natural for you to distinguish between ‘me’ and ‘Lucia’, but don’t think of them as being too separate.’

I, who quietly chewed on Lu’s words, made her decision and nodded her head.

Boo-wook.

Tear off the end of the hem and roughly cover the wound and tie it up.

She said to Lucia, who was still staring at her wound.

“Is it okay if I call you Sia?”

“Uh…… Uh?”

Lucia asked back as if she didn’t understand.

It wasn’t difficult to say just one more time, so I said with a smile.

“Calling him Lu is too difficult to distinguish. That’s why you always call me Lucia, Sia. …… Wasn’t it too sincere?”

The moment I was about to scratch the back of my head out of embarrassment.

Wow!

Lucia rushed into her embrace and buried her face in her clothes.

“…… I love it.”

Lucia hugging my chest. No, I patted Shia’s head and smiled.

“In that case…… It’s an honor.”
