366 363. Light or darkness.txt (1/2)

The target of the 《Level Up》 is not only the girl who prayed, but the entire space.

The air in the central sanatorium changes completely.

The light was colorless. The 'Demon Poison' in the converted air had not yet been dyed by any power, and there was no such thing as color. It danced and spread with a sparkling glow as it searched for a vessel (human) to become its power.

From patients who were particularly dense with the 'demon poison' inside their bodies, a lot of colorless powder of light was scattered. The evil poison that had only served as a harm was now shining brightly as a living force.

Together with the 'Flame God's Light' installed, the room was truly a sky of stardust.

While I was impressed by this brilliant ”spellcraft”, the patients around me started to groan and make a lot of noise.

'Hi--, is this ......?'

'What ......!　The light, the warmth: ......!

'Overflowing from the body ....... What is this ......?

Everyone was surprised by the sudden radiance of the light - but they all intuitively understood that the light was warm and gentle.

The disease of the ”Demon Poison” disappeared, and the sense of overflowing human life force loosened the vigilance of the body's instincts.

In the midst of this cataclysmic change, the girl who was dying in front of her master's eyes looked at her own body and spilled a few words.

''Eh?''

He was confused by his own body's ability to move.

He was confused about the unrealistic recovery.

But because of his intuitive understanding, tears spilled out of his eyes.

'What?　What?

The girl cries large tears in the light, uncomprehendingly, and searches for the person who caused it.

Nearby, she sees a man who is praying and spinning ”magic” beyond the limit.

There was no doubt in anyone's mind that the ”one who steals the reason for the dimension” clothed in that extraordinary power was the source of the light in this room. The girl's parents, the nearby patients and doctors, all paid attention to Master.

Only, Master remained stern and did not look at anyone's face, concentrating only on his 'spellcasting' technique.

'Still ......!　Not yet: ......!

It wasn't enough, he spat out resentfully.

As I said before, Master wouldn't mind if I didn't save all of the ”range of what I can do”. He even used the 《Dimension》 as an example to assault all of them with the light of the 《Level Up》 without leaving a single person out.

The master's heart was well conveyed.

I guess I'm not at my limit yet, so I can't stop.

I guess I will never allow myself to compromise before the limit.

You can't allow yourself to be compromised before the limit.

That figure, combined with the fantastic light, was a bit crazy.

I decided that I needed to explain to the people who were rolling their eyes and looking at Master, and I would speak to the entire room as a supplement. If I don't, there's a chance that my master will be misunderstood.

''Ladies and gentlemen!　This is ...... 'Light'. If you say that Fania believes in the power of fire, then we at Who's Yards believe in the power of light. We are only purifying your ”demonic poison” with that light. Please rest assured: ......!

My voice passed through the throbbing, and everyone in the room looked at me, followed by the glowing master, who was convinced.

There was a miracle there, as much as my words were worthy of. From my point of view, it's just a 'demonic poison' conversion process in accordance with the world's dealings, but the people here have no knowledge of it.

They decide that there is enough groundwork to mistake it for God's work and dare to exaggerate the light and promote it.

'Listen to me. This light is the light of impassibility. The Master is the benefactor who freed my hometown Hoosiers from the darkness and pointed us to a new path. His brilliance will dispel the 'demonic poison' on behalf of the heavens here in Fania and save you and your paralyzed people. ......

You know, like that word--

It's not dangerous!

It's not dangerous, it's just good intentions.

So please don't get angry and don't panic.

--I tell them.

It's worth it, people are confused, but gradually begin to accept the miracle.

Those who have actually gained vitality after the suffering of the 'demonic poison' disappears are especially quick to accept it.

'This is the light ......?　'The Power of Light' ......?

The 'demonic poison' is washing away: ....... I can see that for sure. Even I can see it in this me ......!

'Ahh, ......!　So it's light in Hoosier country!　The light is going to save us: ......!　Thanks ......!　Thank you, God, ......!

The words of gratitude began to fall in drops, and one of them cried out in the glare of the light in the air and began to pray to his master.

Following this, many of the patients began to pray along with their recovery.

'Hey, I'm cured ......!　You're cured, I'm ......!

'Me too: ......!　Stand up ......!　I'm able to stand ......, oh thank you ......!

'Oh, ahh, ahh, ahh--!

Patients who had embraced death in despair rise up and rejoice at finding hope for life.

Deep down, they admit that they wanted to live, and they turn to the master who gave them that life, and they worship him.

I laugh at the sight of it.

The religion known as Altofelism is slowly breaking down.

That faith is taken away from me by the Master who is still not happy to be there.

'Yo, okay ....... One room first. Hah, hah, hah, next door--!

After confirming that the entire room was filled with 《Level Up》, I immediately stared at the other side of the wall and built up more 《Spellcraft》.

The colorless light increases in volume. The guide boy, who sees the light in the immediate vicinity, hurriedly opens the scripture he's holding and mutters as he reads a particular page.

''Could it be that this is ....... Is this the one, Ma, 'The Great Savior (Magna Messiah)' ......?　Now in front of me ......!

For some reason, he was given a bizarrely grandiose name.

He is a master who has taken away a certain faith and is about to sidestep it to its origins.

Only, it seemed that the limit of his strength had finally come, and the master's body began to waver.

He had a pale face.

His breathing was disturbed and he was sweating profusely.

His body is giving off many danger signals.

Finally, Master thrusts his hands into the ground and breaks the 'spell'.

''Guh, aaah--!

With a grunt, the light in the room dissipated as it burst with a pang.

The scene, as if countless small meteors were falling, widens for a few seconds. At the end of it, the inside of the central sanatorium was restored to normal. It's a room warmed by the high ceiling and 'heart'.

However, even if the room returned, only the people would not be restored to normal.

The symptoms and the heart have been turned around with just one 'spell'.

Immediately, I calmly check the results of my master's 'spellcraft'.

Quite a few patients were recovering, but not all of them.

The widespread deployment of the 《Level Up》 must still be rough and unsteady. However, the fact that he was able to ”level up” this number of people at the same time was a tremendous feat. If they can grow so much in just a few days of travel, how much power will they gain in a year's time .......

I approach my current master with high hopes for the pages of the future.

'Master, are you okay?'

Master in this state had seen it several times during his training at Fuzzy Yards.

It's the depletion of physical strength and the 'demonic poison' in his body due to the use of the 'spell' technique. I watched with familiarity, but the former patients around me were different.

When they saw their master's condition, they panicked - but they didn't seem to know what to do, so they first asked me next to them.

''Fuzzyards' apprentice, is he okay ......!　No, first of all, the person's name is ......

'Oh, ......!　Doctor, you need to see that person instead of me!　You saved us--

Please send your name to ......!

Hmmm.

When asked, I struggle with how much information to release.

After a good calculation of profit and loss and hobbies, I provide a minimum amount of information to my former patients.

'My master's name is 'Kanami'. He is the 'Banner of Light' who descended on the Hooziyaz nation and is the savior of this dark world.

Hearing my statement, the wobbly master stands up and squeezes out his voice.

''Ti, Tiara--!

Could it be that he was going to walk away after having gone this far and say, ”I'm not good enough to call myself that”? I'm afraid it's possible, if he's a master.

However, a swarm of grateful voices quickly assaulted the Master, proving that this was impossible.

'Kanami ......!　Dear Kanami: ......!　It's Lady Kanami: ......!

'Oh, finally: ......!　Finally, a light in this dark world: ......!

'Thank you, Kanami-sama!

Surrounded by a large number of former patients, the master is unable to move and quickly humbles himself with a smile.

'Ha, yes ....... But it looks like it's not even all of them. I was actually going to convert more ....... Haha.

'Dear Kanami!　All the people housed here were severely injured who were deemed not to be able to survive!　And Lord Kanami has cured it!　Definitely a miracle!

Ha, ha, ha.

Master's face contorts languidly in front of the praise that seems to interrupt him.

At first glance, his smile deepened and he appeared to be embarrassed, but I could tell he wasn't.

The many ”thank yous” pushed Master into a corner again.

I read my master's thoughts.

Compared to my counterpart against Sister Yangtaki, it was many times warmer.

Right now, Master probably doesn't take credit for the results of the 《Level Up》.

The reason for this is because he doesn't feel that the power of the 'spellcasting' that he suddenly obtained is still his own.

What's more, he also feels guilty that it was his obsession that caused him to take action and not his own decision. In the first place, the master is likely to be unconvinced that even he is himself. That's why there is resistance to the idea that this appreciation and praise is due to him.

Seeing such an inadequate master, I--.

”Hmm...

I laughed, thinking it was teasing.

Because this would mean that my master would never enjoy anything he did.

Even if he tries desperately, his heart will never be satisfied.

There is no excitement beyond the hard work. There is nothing to reward. Naturally, you won't get anywhere.

-- then what in the world is the master (・・・・・) living (・・・・・・・) for (・・・・・・・)?

Such words come to mind and reaffirm.

Oh, I still love my mentor. One more thing I love about him, and I can't get my loose mouth back.

And while I'm in love with him, the situation around me progresses.

Former patients crowd around me and my mentor, and they speak of their appreciation for the miracle. Outside of the crowd, the doctors and guards of the 'First Demonic Research Institute' were showing disturbing expressions and movements. If I look closely, the boy who was guiding us was nearby, but I couldn't see the chamberlain.

Immediately I was about to move out - I was stopped by the voice of the master next to me.

''Huh?　Yo, superfluous ......?　Why ....... --!

Looking at the air in the distance, I was shocked to see that I was alone.

Apparently, thanks to the fact that he hadn't yet deactivated the 《Dimension》 that he used in conjunction with it earlier, he could hear the doctors and guards talking.

''Master, tell me as well.''

As an escort, I demand it a bit more strongly. Perhaps sensing the seriousness in his tone of voice, the master shares the information he's quickly gained with me.

''Those people want me to be captured at all costs. And, if they can't capture me, they're willing to kill me. ......

...... I see. Hmmm, well, is it any wonder that it happens?

It's one of the reactions I was expecting.

I pushed the former patients around me away as I pictured my escape route in my mind.

In the meantime, my mentor's smile had completely crumbled.

'I just want to help ....... So ......--

He looks frustrated.

Master, who was trembling with a ware, looked like he was about to fall down.

Before that happened, I brushed off Master's legs and forcefully held him in my arms. I hold his back with my right arm and put my left arm through both knees. It's going to be awkward for Master, but I want him to be patient for a little while.

'Huh?　Tiara, what--!

I'm leaving, Master. No more proper inspection. Let the escapade begin!

I chose to force a retreat, based on my decision as an escort.

I ran out the way I had just pushed away and headed straight for the window of the room. Just then, I heard the voice of the boy guiding me from behind me.

'Ah!　Well, wait, 'The Great Savior (Magna Messiah)'--!

The ex-patients followed the boy and said, ”Hold on! And raised his voice to stop us. Of course, the guards waiting around the crowd were many times louder than that, demanding that we stop.

'Wait!

Don't let him get away!

Ignoring all of that, I run through.

My strength and stamina have increased to an extraordinary degree with the 《Level Up》. Even if I had a master, there wasn't a single one of them that was suitable for my speed.

I walked past the guards and leapt out of the window.

I landed on a tightly cobbled street and quickly made my way to a back alley.

You need to get between buildings and move as far away from them as possible.

If it was a city other than Fania, the escape would be a success at this point. However, here, the lights of the 'Flame God's Stone' were set up in large numbers even in the back alleys, and the idea of hiding in the darkness was unacceptable.

I was constantly running around, taking care not to leave any trace of my escape.

But wherever we headed, soldiers, who seemed to be our pursuers, were waiting and looking for us.

'This way!　Go around!　We're running out of time!

Yes, sir!

I watch it from the shadows and groan with wonder.

'Hmmm ......?'

The siege was developing too quickly. There are a number of soldiers who can only be assumed to have been waiting for us before we escaped.

I wondered if they had been mobilized to capture us from the beginning. What's more, I feel as if our general position is always being discovered by the other side.

I pondered, trying to read the other camp's intentions. But before I can do that, the master in my arms shouts out and puts his feet on the ground.

''Tiara, it's okay now ....... I can walk on my own.''

Liukai. ...... Oh, is there anything I can do to hide my face?
