Vol 1 Chapter 7 (1/2)
Chapter 7 - Wind, Rain, Wolf
Part 1
As the storm ravaged the night, it was somewhere not far from the Tokyo
Tower—
Anyone with some slightly normal sense would not venture outside in such
unfavorable weather.
No, even a person with particularly urgent things to do would not choose to
go outside, due to this level of wind, rain, and thunder.
Within the storm, an old man stood, wearing a black jacket with joyful
laughter on his face.
”Hahahahahaha! Search and go hunt! Tonight is such a wonderful night!
My hunting hounds, find my prey!”
Dejanstahl Voban yelled loudly.
Very quickly, tens of [Wolves] took form in the darkness behind him, and
started racing across the city in the night. As if carrying his laughter, the
wind strengthened, and the lightning became more violent.
The screams of the wind and the sound of thunder, heavy rain striking the
ground with fierce sounds, all these dominated the city night.
Without any signs of people on the streets, the cars on the roads also
disappeared.
In other words, it would not have been an exaggeration to say it had turned
into a city without people. Voban who yelled arrogantly was like a king of
the wasteland.
”Ah, getting so excited. He looks really happy.”
The one who appeared to admire with sincerity was the History
Compilation Committee member, Amakasu Touma.
Beside him was Liliana Kranjcar. As she peeked at the one who sort of
counted as a dignified old man, she showed a slightly shocked expression.
”Especially this tasteless act. It is as if he had not found entertainment for a
long time until now... Really, an anachronistic tyrant should just enjoy his
secluded life!”
”However, a life of sitting in the balcony under the sun and growing old...
Something like that is no good—”
Erica Blandelli deliberately played the devil's advocate against her old
friend.
—It was near s.h.i.+ba Park in the Minato ward.
They had discovered the old Devil King and hid in a dark spot of some
building to witness this scene.
Roughly thirty minutes ago, Erica had brought Liliana over to her cause,
and disarmed hateful complaints one after another with a smile as they
searched for Voban.
Liliana, who was even skilled at divination, had divined the Marquis'
location.
Moving in the direction the divination indicated, they met Amakasu.
As Erica and Liliana walked together, a car stopped on the road, suddenly
opened its door and out appeared his figure.
Opening a black umbrella and walking out into the heavy rain.
However, the umbrella was immediately blown away. Amakasu shook his
head as if saying ”can't stand this,” gave up, and simply let his suit take in
water from the rain. At the same time, he spoke.
”Meeting here must be fate then, let's go... So, could you introduce this
young lady with you, Erica-san? Actually, I seem to have met Liliana
Kranjcar-san somewhere before?”
Having said that, the three of them stood together.
”So Amakasu-san, may I ask you a question?”
”No problem, as long as I know the answer. However, weight and the three
measurements are secrets, yes?”
To the History Compilation Committee member who answered frivolously,
Erica threw him a vicious stare.
”Actually, starting from just now I realized. You... no, the reason why
G.o.dou was requested in this affair.”
Erica was questioning using subtle acrimonious tones.
Amakasu played dumb and laughed, his calm and relaxed facade did not
falter.
”Actually we are very worried about Erica-san as well. Isn't it normal to
negotiate with the side which has the ability to do something?”
”So how is it? When someone close to him is caught in danger, G.o.dou will
take action without thinking clearly. Ignoring some sacrifices, fighting the
Marquis could turn out to be a good opportunity to push G.o.dou forward in
harnessing his potential... So to speak. Am I overthinking things?”
”You overthought this. After all, we of the History Compilation Committee
are all respectable civil servants. Our first consideration is the welfare of
the Tokyo residents and the j.a.panese nation.”
Erica elegantly gave off an air of acute sarcasm.
Amakasu, though clearly insincere, had a face that somehow one could
not hate.
Listening to the conversation of the two, Liliana whispered with a lack of
good will.
”Conversations like those between foxes and bats should take place
somewhere else. Putting that aside, what should be done now? Is
Kusanagi G.o.dou in this direction?”
”Yes in this direction, how should I put it, it's that he should be in this
direction.”
Erica answered, thinking of the phone call just now.
...Of course, one could not be careless with a man like Kusanagi G.o.dou.
Though he clearly lacked outstanding social skills, he keeps attracting all
these strange people.
Perhaps this was part of a king's disposition. A dependable existence, but
not very amusing.
The plan to bring Liliana over to his side turned out to be enacted early and
succeeded far beyond expectation. ...One must take note of this in the
future.
Fooling around with newcomers would be fine. This was the privilege of a
king. However, he cannot be forgiven if he gets serious.
The one whom Kusanagi G.o.dou truly loves above all can be no one else
but Erica Blandelli.
”To carve this principle deep into the soul, truly has to begin from
childhood... With that kind of personality, the chances of him becoming a
parent who spoils his children is rather high...”
”What is it, Erica? What are you uttering so softly about?”
Erica shook her head at Liliana's question.
The current priority was to deal with Marquis Voban. One must
concentrate.
”Ah ah, excuse me, it's nothing, don't mind it. —Let's start. Kusanagi
G.o.dou and Dejanstahl Voban, the second round of the duel between
[Kings].”
Erica and Liliana stepped forward side by side.
They stepped towards where the old Devil King was summoning wind, rain
and thunder, laughing madly.
Under the intense thunderstorm, the two girls finally faced off against the
elderly king.
”Ohoh, finally out of the house? Too late. —Oh, Kranjcar seems to have
joined her rival, but why? Shouldn't you be following me?”
Voban glanced sideways at the girl beside Erica and spoke.
He could immediately tell that Liliana had changed her loyalties. His
twisted eyes were full of certainty.
”I express my deepest apologies. Liliana Kranjcar would now request to be
withdrawn from your services. Please forgive me for refusing to stain my
chivalry by partic.i.p.ating in the kidnapping of the weak and womenfolk.”
”Dare to refuse the tyrannical king? Foolis.h.!.+ However, this may well be the
role model of a knight.”
Voban smiled generously.
”Killing you by my own hand and letting you join the ranks of the [Dead
Servants] will suffice. Without a doubt, that [Diavolo Rosso] will accompany
you as well. You won't be lonely eh? Girls with the disposition of wolves,
you are worthy to become warriors under me.”
The darkness became restless once again.
Warriors, with st.u.r.dy bodies and wearing ancient battle attires, were born
out of the darkness.
”I can't let you be mistaken, so let me teach you all. These people—[Dead
Servants] can only be truly released from my shackles by the state of my
death. So just now, for those knights you defeated with your own hands,
do not mistakenly believe that they will obtain peace. They have simply
turned into dust once more, returning to the ground, and after some time
will return to my shackles once again... My domination is eternal.”
Out of the storm dozens of death knights appeared.
It was true. From amongst the defeated knights, there were now two that
looked identical to them. As expected of an authority usurped from the
G.o.ds, ordinary methods did not work.
Witnessing the power of her enemy, Erica instead showed an arrogant
smile.
”A king's words cannot be false. However, may I be so bold as to make a
correction. We are not your opponents. Have you forgotten this fact?”
”I'm not that old and senile. However, where is that beloved brat of yours?”
The nature of Voban's smile changed.
In the smile of the king who was familiar with his absolute power, a
composed warrior's hearty laughter from the boiling of hot blood could be
seen.
”That kind of brat can't even satisfy my hunger a tiny bit. A newborn king
can only be at this level. However if that guy—can let me witness the
power that overcame the other brat Salvatore, then I shall amend my
words. Tonight, is a rare moment for my blood to boil from excitement. The
chance to enjoy fighting to my heart's content!”
Neither for the power to bury G.o.ds, nor for ruling the earth.
Only to enjoy a good battle.
A power that only existed for battle and conflict.
The king whose body had existed for centuries, who chose solitude and
abandoned territory and subjects instead, to the old king's roars, Erica
nodded.
”If that's the case, king, then you shall confirm for yourself. —Kusanagi
G.o.dou! Your knight calls for you. Please descend once again, and fulfill
your obligations as king!”
Taking a slight bow, raising her voice to call for that name.
Riding upon the blowing winds, out spoke the spell words calling forth the
young king.
—Soon, the wind formed a vortex in front of Erica's eyes.
—Away from the overflowing spell power, Liliana retreated in surprise.
Suddenly in the center of the wind, out appeared Kusanagi G.o.dou and
Mariya Yuri dressed in her miko outfit.
”You have kept me waiting long enough, brat. Making an elder wait so
long, what a rude fellow. As expected of the ally of that brat Salvatore.”
”Excuse me. However, comparing me with that kind of person makes me
mad.”
Voban who treated the enemies appearing before him as idiots, and
G.o.dou who responded with haughty battle spirit.
It was the moment the two kings met again.
Part 2
”Mariya, why don't you wait at the back. It's probably better than staying
right beside me.”
”Yes. No matter what, please be safe.”
Listening to G.o.dou's directions, Yuri nodded sincerely.
She reluctantly let go of the hand she was holding tightly during the flight
via Verethragna's [Wind], and got off from G.o.dou's body. Without a trace of
uncertainty, it was a very good expression.
The place where Yuri ran towards, had Erica—as well as another person.
”Eh? You are from just now...”
”I am Liliana Kranjcar. I hurried here at full speed to join under your
banner, Kusanagi G.o.dou. Though I never wanted to serve the same
master as that female fox, I have judged your side to be the side of justice
on this occasion. I hope you can understand the reasons of my actions.”
Liliana spoke rapidly as she glared at her longtime acquaintance.
Easily ignoring her gaze, Erica supplemented with a devilish smile from
goodness knows where.
”That's right. This is very important. Justice. It was also written in the
notebook of someone...”
”Quiet! ...You will get your just deserts one day.”
Liliana said with a frown.
Noticing some kind of back story, G.o.dou felt sympathy for her. It must
have been a difficult life getting along with that devil for so long.
”There's probably nothing to gain from following me. It's fine, you don't
have to force yourself...”
”That is already understood, it is fine.”
Liliana simply cut G.o.dou off.
Even though she was complaining, her face showed a happy expression.
With dreamlike beauty like a fairy's, it felt like she had finally let go of
something and obtained the will to advance forward into the future.
”Ok, thanks. Let's beat up that abominable old man together then.”
The knight who was brought over by Erica's scheming.
Not only was she capable and had her own principles, she was lending her
power. That deserved thanks. Liliana shyly fled from G.o.dou's gaze of
grat.i.tude.
”Thanks are not needed. It is a knight's duty to a.s.sist the king.
Furthermore, you are doing this to save a friend and a lady. ...Well, as the
master of that female fox, you have earned very few starting points, but no
matter, this is within acceptable bounds.”
Very strict words.
This was already established in the first impression. This girl was
unexpectedly abrasive in response to unnecessary concern from others. If
one were to imagine from that doll-like face, one would likely conclude that
she was one of those characters that were tough but satisfying to win over.
With a forced smile, G.o.dou generously nodded his head in response.
”That's enough. I am in your debt. —Then, old man over there, let's go.”
”Hmph, you sure talk too much about the most trivial of things. As a
warrior, please do not be distracted when facing enemies. Immature one!”
Unfazed, G.o.dou retorted against the criticisms of the old man.
”Immature doesn't need to be said, Captain Obvious. As a subst.i.tute, I
have my trusted companions. You probably pride yourself on your solitary
superiority, right?”
”This brat really knows how to bark. So, let's see who has more bite!?”
Voban waved his hand downwards.
Immediately, the death knights behind him moved at his call.
Unsheathing their swords, raising their spears, to kill and defeat G.o.dou!
The first to approach were two knights, one red and the other blue, who
summoned magic swords.
”Lily, there is no need to defeat the death knights. We just need to protect
G.o.dou properly. That is our priority!”
”Any other strategy? Understood!”
To G.o.dou's right was Erica, while Liliana took the left.
Cuore di Leone and Il Maestro—the two magic swords traced spectacular
paths nonstop, forming an impenetrable wall protecting G.o.dou from the
death knights.
In terms of battle strength, the two of them were probably very close to, if
not equal to the enemies before them.
Compared to the dead who could only faithfully follow the orders of their
master, there was an advantage to instant and flexible decision making
and agile evasion. Furthermore, their base capabilities had negligible
differences.
This was true even though they were outnumbered.
The ten or more death knights were intercepted by the two people Erica
and Liliana.
Still, Voban continued to summon servants out of the darkness—a mobile
army of corpses.
Amongst these warriors who resembled medieval knights, there were also
soldiers armed with muskets fitted with bayonets.
Corpses who wrapped their bodies with cloth and rope, swinging battle
axes. There were also dead people who wore military uniforms dating from
the earlier half of the twentieth century, and carrying what appeared to be
ancient rifles. As if turning back time, there was a giant man who looked
like a Viking from some unknown era. Amongst the dead, there were also
those who wore Middle Eastern or Chinese attire.
The [Dead Servants] whose ranks included a haphazard mix of all sorts of
time periods, nationalities, and ethnicities—
The firearms they carried appeared to be in no condition to fire. The blades
in their hands were badly maintained, and heavily rusted.
Even so, they were swarming in and swinging their weapons.
—Erica and Liliana did not back down at their opponents the [Dead
Servants].
The dead attacked in bunches again and again.
Once again, Erica had split Cuore di Leone into thirteen parts to be
controlled.
The magic sword of the lion floated in the sky like a ferocious bird of prey,
and then flew, slicing continuously at the [Dead Servants]. Against the
most powerful death knights, Erica stopped them by swinging her sword
personally.
Liliana stayed off the ground for the most part.
She stood on the dead people's heads, shoulders, and even on their
weapons, jumping around and flying without restriction. From above, she
attacked from the air with her magic sword again and again, neutralizing
her enemies.
They completely avoided overextending themselves.
Against the strongest death knights, they used hindering attacks and never
engaged for too long.
However, against the weakest servants, the magic swords attacked their
fatal vulnerabilities with merciless abandon. Within a short while, many of
them were removed from battle. In truth, the tactics of the two could be
seen as despicable, but extremely solid.
Completely low risk.
Erica never left G.o.dou's side, while Liliana never ventured too deep.
What remained constant was guarding G.o.dou above all else. This was
possible due to the capabilities and judgment of the two.
”I didn't want to do this originally, but there's no other way!”
”Same for me! But, now what? Do you have a plan!?”
Even in a situation like this, the two of them did not give off any sense of
tragedy.
Seeing Erica and Liliana kicking away the dead, G.o.dou had mixed
feelings.
Though obedient, they were the victims killed by Voban's hand.
The tragic fate of those who resisted the devil king and opposed him, but
ended up defeated. As these people fell and stayed on earth as servants,
they continued to fight for Voban after their deaths.
Of course, Verethragna's authorities weren't anything good either, but
there were still limits.
—If he could, liberating them was the first thing G.o.dou wanted to do.
G.o.dou sighed.
In terms of strategy, it would be unwise. It was already established that the
power of Erica and Liliana was sufficient to hold off the [Dead Servants]. It
would be better to save his trump card for something else.
Ending the summoning of more [Dead Servants], Voban approached with
casual footsteps.
Eyeing the powerful old king, G.o.dou spoke decisively.
”...Hey. Do you remember the first G.o.d you killed?”
”Why are you bringing this up, boy? What does that have to do with you?”
Voban sneered.
His form changed. From man to werewolf, and then to a wolf—
Was that really all there is to it, other than turning into a giant wolf?
Knowing the destructive power of Verethragna's [Boar], G.o.dou believed
that this [Wolf] was the ability that he must be the most wary of.
Voban's body expanded after transforming into a wolf.
Once again, the vigorous body of the giant silver wolf returned, a terrifying
embodiment of violence.
—Currently in G.o.dou's heart, resided two swords.
However, the [Warrior] could only wield one sword at a time, and he must
choose between them. G.o.dou must decide between sealing the [Dead
Servants] or the [Wolf]. This was a choice he must make, no other way
around it.
Casting his last doubts aside, G.o.dou began to chant the spell words.
”I know it. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d of a G.o.d you killed—the wolf G.o.d hanging around
like night, hating mankind, I know it!”
The light s.h.i.+ned with brilliance and glory.
The [Sword] of the spell words to kill G.o.ds. s.h.i.+ning with golden splendor, it
formed numerous spheres of light and scattered.
”Once known as Phoebus—the G.o.d whose name had the meaning of light.
However, he was also the G.o.d with the night-like epithet 'nukti eoikos.'[1] A
b.a.s.t.a.r.d deity who possessed a ma.s.sive contradiction between his
appearance and his nature, that was the G.o.d you killed.”
The golden [Sword] fluttered in the air amidst spell words.
Looking up, the view was mostly dominated by the giant wolf form of
Voban—his silver fur and the strong body of a wolf, were being shredded
in a crisscross manner.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !!
'—What, what is that power!'
Carrying roars and surprise, his yelling also echoed.
”That ancient epithet Smintheus. —It means rat. And then there is Lykaon,
Lyeios... words containing the meaning of wolf. The G.o.d of light whose
origins stemmed from rats and wolves—the beasts of the earth and
darkness. This is the key to interpreting this G.o.d!”
This was the figure and nature of the G.o.d that Yuri observed.
Obtaining that knowledge, G.o.dou felt the spell words flowing out
continuously from somewhere deep inside him.
This was different from the times when Erica used spells to transmit
knowledge. Though his mind was totally blank, his mouth spoke on its own.
As his tongue moved without pause, spell words were spoken
continuously.
Using the heart to capture the G.o.d's form—and then speaking out the
images. Simple as that.
”The wolf with the essence of a rat, and the G.o.d who possessed dual
attributes of light and night—in other words, Apollo. The twin brother of the
moon G.o.ddess Artemis, the sun G.o.d who locked away darkness but was
born underground! This is the name of the first G.o.d you killed!”
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !!
'The spell words with the power to sever a G.o.d's power! Is this your trump
card? Interesting!'
Voban roared stubbornly.
From the fur of the giant silver wolf, numerous [Wolves] were born. Each
strand of fur transformed, turning into bodies the size of normal wolves,
and started racing through the air.
The golden [Sword] brought color to the night sky swirling with wind and
rain.
The light of the spell words twinkled like stars, and flew towards the silver
wolf pack jumping through the air.
In order to devour the [Sword], which flew back and forth around the giant
wolf, the [Wolves] constantly lunged at the lights and attempted to bite
them. However, the [Sword]'s spheres of light simply advanced from within
the [Wolves]' mouths to cut their vigorous bodies into halves.
Watching the victories repeating in the air several, no, dozens of times,
G.o.dou's determination continued to get fired up.
Let's attack in one fell swoop!
”Apollo's twin sister Artemis is the G.o.ddess of the hunt—one of the pillars
amongst the powerful mother earth G.o.ddesses. The mother of these
siblings is the great earth G.o.ddess Leto. And Apollo was once a deity
belonging to the temple of the earth.”
Apollo's epithets appeared one after another.
Apollo of Light [Phoebus Apollo]. Apollo of Rats [Apollo Smintheus]. Apollo
of Wolves [Apollo Lykeios]. Apollo of Disaster [Apollo Loxias].
This sun G.o.d had many little known contradictions. G.o.dou once killed time
at home by reading a pocket-sized edition of the Iliad. He found it quite
strange at the time.
The beginning of the Homeric hymn described how 'Apollo took on the
guise of the dark night.'
And then the G.o.d brought pestilence against the Achaean army. The
eternally handsome youth. The sun G.o.d who loved and admired beauty. It
was hard to connect his appearance with the descriptions of the things he
did.
”As proof of this, there exists a deep link between the earth and the beasts
which symbolized him. Rats, wolves and swans—as well as snakes. Those
tiny rats, restless in the darkness, could very well be Apollo's original form.
The wolves used by his sister Artemis as servants, was the form of Apollo
as the guardian dog of the underworld. The swan was also a symbol of the
link between earth and the underground. Finally there is the snake—as
one of the major symbols of most mother earth G.o.ddesses, it represents
the cycle of life and death.”
Powered by G.o.dou's spell words, the golden [Sword] flew across the sky.
[Wolves] continuously flew out from the body of the giant wolf, trying to rip,
bite and resist these swords.
The brilliant light of gold and silver fought fiercely, showering the area with
sparks.
The eerie blaze of the supernatural aerial battle was carried out in a narrow
region of the stormy night sky.
”However, the snake which appeared in Apollo's myth was neither his
companion nor his relative. It is the monster that he killed—which is why
snakes appear. It is the serpent Python which guarded the sacred land of
the Delphic oracle. In the past, the young Apollo slew the serpent with his
bow and arrows, thus becoming the G.o.d of the oracle.”
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!!
As if trying to disperse G.o.dou's spell words, Voban roared.
Unable to resist the [Sword], the forms of the silver wolves disappeared as
they met defeat repeatedly. The giant wolf with a monstrous body kicked at
the ground, causing ma.s.sive shaking on the surrounding surface.
The attack's direction was aimed at G.o.dou, obviously.
Since the weapon could not be defeated, attacking the controller was the
logical choice. However, that was easy to handle.
”Python was the great serpent born from the mother earth G.o.ddess Gaia.
Apollo had killed the serpent and became the patron of Delphi. Henceforth,
his priestesses were called Pythia and delivered the oracle to those who
came to seek the sacred Delphic oracle. —In other words, Apollo is the
G.o.d who successfully killed a fellow brethren deity belonging to the earth.”
G.o.dou strung the golden swords together and gathered the brightness.
If he attacked here in a straight line, it would be just right. He will sever
Apollo's divine power with one slice, and disarm Voban's weapon!
”The underground which connects the earth to the underworld, symbolized
darkness. What dispels darkness is light—sunlight. As a G.o.d born from the
earth, Apollo also embodied the light which existed to kill his mother.
Hence, his true nature has attributes of light mixed into darkness—and
became the G.o.d of disaster Loxias.”
Giving off light brighter by several fold, a golden flash sliced at the giant
wolf horizontally.
Immediately, the giant body was destroyed. Shrinking, it turned back into
the form of a skinny old man.
”...I see now, the spell words which can overcome my authority. Such an
annoying special move.”
Though clearly injured, Voban stood upright and unfazed.
Pa.s.sion and calm, iron will and glory, all these were mixed together and
shone from the eyes of the ancient and powerful one as he glared at
G.o.dou.
”An ability to adapt oneself against different situations. What a rare
power... Amongst the current [Kings], John Pluto also has a similar ability.
These types of authorities usually have restrictions. As long as I know the
rules which bind you, victory can be easily obtained.”
Hmph. Though blood dripped from his forehead, Voban's lips showed a
crooked smile.
G.o.dou heightened his alertness. The power of the old man's [Wolves]
probably hasn't been suppressed completely. When it struck, G.o.dou felt
that the impact was very light.
Seeing through the nature of the [Sword]'s spell words, Voban had halted
his attacks just before the critical moment.
”Don't worry, with your level of ability, it is still too soon to present a
challenge. I will attack you straight on.”
The [Dead Servants] received Voban's orders, and changed their
movements.
Up until now, they had been attacking without pattern. But now they
suddenly became extremely well organized. They temporarily retreated
away from around G.o.dou to regroup, and then attacked in waves.
”d.a.m.n it! They are here again! So troublesome!”
”Just when I thought it was getting too easy, but this will be bad!”
Liliana and Erica were having difficulty holding them off, and clearly
showed signs of anxiety.
First, the weaker servants were used to take the frontal a.s.sault. When they
occupied Erica and Liliana, the great knight level corpses immediately
attacked.
Clearly, Voban was manipulating the [Dead Servants] with his invisible will.
”You were trying to solve the riddle of Apollo, right? Correct, the first G.o.d I
defeated was Apollo, and my wolf was the sacred beast authority I usurped
from him. However, your spell words—will they be effective against any
G.o.d other than Apollo?”
Controlling the dead was part of Osiris' authority, but even though he was
aware of that fact, G.o.dou could do nothing about it. No matter what, the
[Warrior] form could only seal Apollo's divine power.
It looks like Voban changed his method of attack in order to find the limits
of G.o.dou's [Sword].
Erica and Liliana swung their magical swords and continued to battle.
Though they fought without respite, the tide of battle had turned against
them. Just as G.o.dou agonized that he was being protected by two girls—
”G.o.dou-san!”
Yuri's voice yelled out from behind him.
”Please use the sword for vanquis.h.i.+ng Osiris! You should have fulfilled that
condition!”
”It's true, but I have already used the [Sword] to seal Apollo...”
Without enough remaining strength to answer, G.o.dou could only whisper
softly.
Each of Verethragna's incarnations could only be used once a day.
Furthermore, when using the [Warrior], the target had to be decided
beforehand.
”Don't give up! Whether Apollo or Osiris, both were originally deities with
extremely similar characteristics. Use the spell words dormant in your
body, and forge the [Sword] you need right here!”
Even Yuri spoke of something impossible. As G.o.dou was caught in
surprise, he surveyed the situation.
Erica and Liliana were already at their limits trying to protect him. Enslaved
by the authority of the underworld deity, the servants were fighting even
after their deaths, and the old man culprit was just standing there
gloating—
If G.o.dou doesn't give it a try, how will he know the result?
Seeing Voban's confident demeanor, G.o.dou felt pity for the [Dead
Servants], and apologetic towards his companions in battle, and so he
renewed his battle spirit.
”Like Apollo, Osiris was also a G.o.d born from the earth!”
The green-skinned G.o.d of the underworld, the judge of the dead.
The nature of that G.o.d was the harvest brought about by the Nile river
