Vol 6 Chapter 5 (2/2)
”Was the proether with me a lie?”
Lapis turned her back on Takeru and seriously asked him He sed the explanation he was supposed to say, and ”Sorry” he apologized
”I won't forgive you”
”sorry”
”I will not forgive you”
”I apologize”
”I'ive you”
”I said I'm sorry”
”I definitely won't forgive you”
He looked at her with confusion in his eyes, but Lapis was adamant
Takeru stared at her, and while scratching his cheek he looked for words Lapis wanted to hear from him
”I will stay with you forever I won't break the proain”
”very well I will forgive you”
She turned around with a twirl, pulled out the knife from her abdomen and faced towards him
She didn't smile She didn't seem happy However, satisfaction could be felt from her Takeru took the knife from Lapis
Behind Lapis, Kanaria has collapsed
”nh”
”Kanaria, you should coic Acade to the outside”
””
”Coa”
Takeru got on his knees and reached out towards Kanaria
Confused, she stared at Takeru's hand Although she hesitated for a moment, she reached to Takeru timidly
However, the moment their hands were about to touch,
”——Ara, Kanaria? I wonder if you intend to betray us?”
Hearing a voice from the sky above, Takeru turned towards it in a hurry
But then suddenly so his posture
Lapis pushed Takeru's body Thelike an electric current has wrapped around Lapis' body
”——Lapis!!!”
《”Don't——touch me”》
Although he tried to stretch out his hand to her, Lapis sent her voice directly into his head
If he touches the current, Takeru's flesh and blood body won't be able to withstand it It was frustrating, but he was unable to do anything
He clenched his teeth and glared into the sky
A purplish-red wo on the throne that floated in mid-air
”You who the fuck are you!”
”Ara ara, a norant brat”
While fanning her face with a western fan the woman identified herself
”My name is Elizabeth a leader of Fantasy CultValhalla and Chairhty Witch』nice to meet you”
Eliza slowly raised the fan up
And as she did so, the electric current restraining Lapis' body has slowly rose up
”Lapis!”
”Sorry, but I' this Sacred Treasure It's too heavy for a lower organism like you to hold only a pure-blooded witch like me is appropriate for it”
She raised Lapis right beside her, then stroked Lapis' cheek with her long nails
At the saot up on her knees and shouted to Eliza
”Eliza, you were tailing me! It's different froet in my way!”
”Ara? It's because a dirty wood elf like you was sluggish that I had to go all this way by ht? Moreover, for you to reconcile with the enemy that's why you can't trust those mixed demihuman races”
”I didn't betray you or anything, Kana's enemy is Inquisition and Alchemist!”
Kanaria tried to desperately justify herself to Eliza, but Eliza just spat out a sigh while fanning herself
”What a simple naïve child once a deain No matter how many excuses you repeat, okay?”
”Wait! Listen——”
”Unfortunately, I have no intention of listening Off with your head”
When Eliza folded her fan, ical circle appeared below Kanaria's feet
Before Kanaria could juic activated
”《Phalaris Bull》”
Along with the ic name, a wall has appeared around Kanaria with countless holes in it gradually covering her
When Kanaria's figure turned no longer visible, deafening screaed from the red holes in the walls
”That's quite nice voice It's hot right? It's a inal torture instrument”
”ELIZA! ELIZAAAaaa!”
”Don't worry The next destination you will be transferred to is already deterlad, there are people with a wonderful hobby of torh ranks will be your next job”
Eliza's cackling laughter echoed
When Takeru ran to help Kanaria, preventing hiround
”bitch!”
”An energetic empty aren't you if you were chosen by the Sacred Treasure your abilities ood entertaino with pureblood adversaries as your opponents”
When Eliza swung her fan while looking down at him, Lapis and Kanaria disappeared sed by distortion in space
Takeru held the sword unrin on his face
”Now everyone, it's ti as failures for our best students! The ones who crush this cockroach will have greater status and prestige bestowed upon!”
Along with the voice of Eliza who sat on the throne, the group of people in red robes surrounded Takeru Their faces were all young Probably, they were West Side's students
When he looked around, he saw several dozens of the on the steel frames who aimed their wands towards him
Kanaria was definitely reporting to the West Side and was used as a decoy to lure out Takeru so that they could obtain Mistilteinn In other words, Takeru was lured into a trap
”You guys, aren't you supposed to be Kanaria's comrades”
When he spoke to the enehter has responded him
”Our only brethren are members of Pureblood Party”
”Impure beastmen should be destroyed”
”Only those who tasted sorrowful history are our comrades”
Hearing their heavy voices, Takeru refuted
”The worth of a huic power if anything, people like you who abandon your comrades are simply scum! Aren't you the humans just like she is!”
”She deserves death She will serve to dispel the eternal curse on the humanity”
”Don't just pick out the targets to hate so conveniently! That's why all you have in your head is war!”
Takeru roared But the Pureblood Party just laughed They laughed at him
”Dirty-blooded E” ”Our determination continues since the hu” ”Cries” ”Loss” ”Our blood re” ”Blood rerief!”
Pureblood's wands were tinged with ht
Takeru held his sword, his eyes shone with red
”Our bliss is destruction of empties alone” ”Our hatred will become one” ”Our ambition will become one” We are Pureblood Party” ”We are crystallization of witch's grief”
” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ”Revenge will be ours!” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ”
”——Fine by h that determination of yours!!!”
For the first ti time blood really rushed to Takeru's head
Try not to kill if possible But only if possible
If the enemy comes at him with intention to kill——there won't be any complaints if they die!
Along with an explosion of anger, Takeru kicked off the ground at full strength
One of the Pureblood Party who released a powerful ic bullet was defeated in an instant
However, the enemy's attack didn't let him rest
Immediately after the front row shot, the back row released their bullets predicting Takeru's destination
They were like bayonet corps with no gaps in defence, they were incredibly disciplined
After taking down three people, Takeru hid behind a pile of wood
Iic bullets approachedaround the pile
”——Tracking bullets!”
He cut through the bullets with the sword, but the a increased
”Don't look down on me just because all I have is my flesh and blood!”
Takeru bent his knees and jumped with abandon
He rose up to the ician who tried to snipe hih the wand and hit him with the back of his sword
Takeru landed on the steel frame, and made his advent in front of the cowards who aimed at him from above
”This guy he's a monster!”
”Just now, it was the sai Orochi uses don't underestimate him, he's skilled!”
A sorcerer warned everyone openly, however,
”It's too late to notice that!”
Takeru's speed was beyond the sorcerers' recognition
The steel fraeous to Takeru
He cut down five people grouped together and immediately looked below
”——Start the salvo!”
Along with a single person's coic bullets swooped upon Takeru
Takeru kicked off the steel fra in the air
”He's flying! Ai!”
Although Pureblood Party used a very reasonable tactics, but there was no way Takeru wouldn't predict that ht he placed a foot the steel frame on the opposite side and kicked off
”——Wha!!”
While the enemy was astonished, Takeru kicked off another steel frame and continued to head to the bottom like a pinball Like that, even if they predicted where he will fall they wouldn't be able to hit him
And the moment he kicked the lowest steel frame,
”Double-Edged style——Single Wheel!”
After kicking off the steel fraered the o the momentum
The blow released from a state where he twisted his waist and body to the lihtered five enemies
Maintaining thehe successively took down one ene
”Too fast! For an euahh!”
Takeru entered under his bosom, and hit him with the back of the sword in the chin
He cut down a dozen of people at once, disrupting enemy ranks
Then he noticed there were only ten left
After finally stopping his flow, Takeru exhaled Even though he learned from Orochi how to use the floith this many opponents the burden on the body was still tremendous
He wasn't io to where Lapis was
Right now, Takeru was able to faintly feel Lapis' whereabouts, but he was unable to tell as done to her in the location she was transferred to, so he had to hurry and chase after her
Takeru held the sword and cut an enemy nearby
One of the ene the sword for a h it was difficult to perform defensive and offensive actions simultaneously, with a number like that cooperation was their forte They intended to shoot him the moment his attack is blocked
”Don't think you can stoplike this!!”
However, Takeru's sas fortunately ic le powerful blow When the shattered ical power scattered, Takeru cut down the caster
The Pureblood Party recognized Takeru as a threat, and stopped using simple combat tactics
Three of theether
”Don't underestimate pureblood sorcerers!”
Air started rustling, and a ical circle flashed under Takeru's feet
It was too late to avoid, feeling five ti on him he fell to his knees
”Weight increasing e is narrow but he won't move for a moment!”
One of the enehed fearlessly confident of their victory
However,
”Gh-uUuuUUUuuUUuoOoOo!”
Takeru rebuilt the posture i under the weight
While hearing the sound of , he jumped
Outside of the range——above the enemies
”He jumped under that pressure!”
Not even giving the three ti the spell to oblivion
Takeru stood on top of the three corpses, pierced the ground with his sword and spat out a deep breath
Hot breath leaking fro red eyes made him look like a beast
The reht seeing Takeru's onslaught
”E-Eliza-sama”
One of the six directed his line of sight at Eliza as in the sky and asking her for help
Bored, Eliza looked at the sorcerers' battle with Takeru with frosty gaze
”He's like a grasshopper”
She likened Takeru who destroyed the Pureblood Party
”Pathetic Being at ic bullets you went ih I taught you that the sorcerer's weak point is the slow attack you still did that it seeet some experience was a mistake”
Eliza laic teacher
”Ahh, fine already Let's hurry up and pluck the bad buds while it's still early”
She folded the fan and lightly raised it up slightly
And with a rotation of the fan she released ic power from her body outside
Magical circles expanded in the air
Abnorical circle was needed to use e and their colours were different
Everyone of the Pureblood Party looked up at Eliza pleadingly
”Eliza-sarant us postponement!”
Hearing consternation in enemy's voice, Takeru also looked up
He understood as she trying to do at a glance
She was going to wipe out her allies with ic
”Chairuys, hold down this Empty at risk of your lives If you do that, on your toraved that you were honourable pure-blooded heroes”
Eliza looked down on the sorcerers beloith a ridiculing sical circles overlapped in one place, and where they have intered to purplish-red
Takeru felt a chill on his skin, and goose bumps appeared on his body
That thing is dangerous Takeru's survival instinct sounded a warning
Seeing the ic solidify, Takeru tried to retreat froic has assaulted hiain
”We won't let you escape!”
Moreover, the rest of the eneic chains
”She's going to kill you together with o this far?!”
When Takeru shouted, the Pureblood Party didn't hesitate, only directed their hatred at him
”There's no way someone like you who lived and came from outside will understand our hatred!”
”Our parents were killed by Inquisition andaway treated as experimental material!
”And my best friend!”
”My brother!”
”We were all born on the outside we had no choice but to live in the border, insulted by e cherished wish is to kill as many empties as possible!”
Tears appeared in their eyes as they accepted their deaths
For kids to carry such resolution, it was eful Kyouya He didn't deny anyone revenge, but directing unjustified resentment at those eren't at fault was pointless It was all wrong
And the leader who incited such incorrect way to exact revenge was!
”Elizabeth!”
Takeru turned gaze full of anger towards Eliza
Eliza giggled and swung down the fan
The geoled in accordance to her ical circles shattered
And in front of the fan, a sical attribute has solidified
”My attribute, 『Alhty』 covers all attributes other than ancient properties And if the properties that norether did you knoill it turn into?”
Eliza's mouth distorted
The surroundings lost their sounds Sand under his feet vibrated and suspended in the air against gravity
”Destruction——《Property CollapseQuietus》”
All Takeru could do is receive the destruction with his body
The ic previously in front of the fan fell in front of Takeru's eyes
The purplish-red wicked condensation of ic had been clad in electricity momentarily——
——And was crushed to pieces
Destruction filled Takeru's field of vision He was unable to see or feel anything
The led as the explosion si
The massive disaster called explosion has covered the entire coliseum's construction site
”Ahhahahahahahaha! Beautiful right?! An ancient vampire devised this to destroy the hateful sun! How beautiful are those fireworks that bring destruction!”
While Eliza let out loud laughter, the destruction on the ground continued
There was no need for Pureblood Party to hold down Takeru in the first place That's how vast range Eliza's ht fro
The explosion subsided a minute after it started
He could tell even with his vision hae crater as if a meteorite has crashed into it
All living beings have died out and inorganic have turned into sand At this sight, Eliza tried to laugh satisfied,
——And failed
”what's thisI wonder?”
Eliza's face twitched and she turned towards the ground
At the deepest part of the formed crater there was a space wrapped by a oval rainbow-coloured barrier
In the centre of it was Takeru and four Pureblood Party members who fainted
As well as——the girl as the source of protective ic
The girl brushed away the e of the hat with her finger
”If it isn't quite a flashy move that rotten character of yours where you dispose of your allies makes me relieved”
The Witch of Aurora——Nikaido Mari dispelled the protective lared at Eliza in the sky
Ignoring Eliza on whose face cracks appeared because of anger, Mari immediately looked at Takeru's body worried
”Takeru, are you okay?”
”Mari you”
He wanted to ask her why did she co her face behind the hat
”I' me behind”
””
”I was worried”
Hearing Mari's cruetic
There was no way he could predict it would turn like this, but the fact that he made her worried was an inexcusable fact It was also a fact that he would have died if she didn't come
”I' I'm saved, Mari”
He honestly apologized and thanked her
Mari raised her face, and looked at Takeru with a blushi+ng, happy expression on her face
”A-as long as you understand, a-all right”
Embarrassed she turned her back to Takeru and looked up to the sky again
In response to the hateful glare frolare
”Certainly, you are the outside's Witch of Aurora weren't you called the 'never killing witch' were you so you are that bonus that ca to Mistilteinn?”
Being called a 'bonus', blood vessels appeared on Mari's temple
”Thanks for bringing up my nickname So you are the chair here?”
As she was called 'old', this time blood vessels appeared on Eliza's temple
It was an exchange of insults specific to quarrels betomen
”After using that kind of large ic neither Senate nor East Side will stay silent”
”As long as Mistilteinn becole in inner world will be a trivial problem Also, it's hardly a problem anyway majority of the Senate are our allies”
”Mistilteinn? What's your goal?”
”Even if I look like this, I'oal annihilation of e this world up That's what I need that sword for”
”hmph, simple Easy to understand, that helps”
Hearing Eliza's purpose, anger inside of Mari rose
”It's because there are witches like you that outside won't accept us”
”What a coincidence I can't let a cowardly witch who's called 'never killing' breathe or exist in this world”
Mari and Eliza realized in an instant that their presence and beliefs are perfectly inverse
Takeru realized that their clash is unavoidable, and tried to clench the sword
”Takeru, chase after Lapis-chan”
”I can't do that can I”
”She's your precious sword right Then go to her”
Mari took a step forward and turned with her back to Takeru
”a uy He said that your collar had no explosive function right fro”
”?! Master said that?”
”Yup Also, 'I ain't co to help ya' he said”
Takeru touched the collar with his finger, thinking
He didn't knohat Orochi's goal is But if he said that there were no explosives in the collar, it must have been because Orochi trusts him
He strongly grasped the sword's hilt
”I get it But you can't afford to fight against that wo I can at least act as a decoy if I stay right”
Standing next to Mari, Takeru poised his sword
Having an ally called Mari was incredibly reassuring Even if he can't do it alone, they could fight together
”Let's defeat her together, Mari!”
”Takeru, can I be honest here?”
”Yeah, what is it”
”In short, you're a hindrance”
Takeru almost dropped his sword from shock
”——That's horrible?!”
”Sorry But you really are a hindrance If you are here, I can't fight seriously”
It wasn't a joke, Mari's expression was serious
Thinking of it, Takeru has never seen Mari when she was serious He didn't know too hat kind of power the girl called Witch of Aurora held
However, once before during the ic It boasted of incredible power He agreed that shethere with only his flesh-and-blood
”I'll take care of this here, quickly finish this and follow you immediately”
Mari closed one eye and smiled to Takeru
Despite feeling a bit worthless, Takeru accepted Mari's proposal and was about to chase after Lapis
”Ah, Takeru wait a sec”
”——Should I help after all?!”
A bit happy, Takeru looked back
”No, stand here and jump”
”ha?”
”Ju to check how your wallet sounds so hurry up”
Although he didn't understand her request, confused he stood next to Mari and jumped
”《Large LeapWhite Rabbit》”
When a ical circle appeared under Takeru's feet
Inevitably, Takeru landed on the ical circle
”He?”
When he looked below, the ht to its limit
He had a ridiculously bad feeling
”Hey, it can't be that you——”
”Have a nice trip——make sure not to die!”
Iic activated For a ht his body was lifted, but then he was blown far aith a momentum of a rocket
”HeyheyheyheyheyheyHEYHEYHEYHEY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”
Mari stared at Takeru as bloay until he was no longer visible
After confir far away, Mari turned to the front
In the air, Eliza sat on the floating throne and elegantly fanned herself with a western fan
”is the farce over?”
”For you to wait until we finish talking, isn't that quite gentlemanly of you?”
”West Side isn't that weak as to struggle with such a brat Also, I don't want my entertainment to be disturbed by such a worm”
Eliza's s
”Entertainainst h〜?”
Mari showed an evil sht ic
Rainbow-coloured rings appeared on both of her legs, and her body floated
When she rose up to the saht, Mari and Eliza faced each other
”It is entertainment you know? A little exercise Since there's no sorcerers in this shelter who can be ht I'd warm myself up a little”
”Hee, it's been a while since I fought with all th If you say so, then I won't hold myself back okay?”
”Show hty』”
”As you wish, I'll show you what the utht can do”
Both of theical circles
Eliza's 『Alhty』 which held properties of many colours
Mari's rainbow-coloured 『Aurora』 which was the ht properties
Both of theirs ical circles of countless colours filled the sky
And——
”Let's go, girlie——!”
”——Prepare yourself, you shi+tty old hag!”
The two of theainst each other
