197 Episode 197 Battle in the Sanctuary (1/2)

”This is the sanctuary where the magic tools were installed....”

Coming out of the village to the foothills of Mount Amatsukami, we came to a place called the sanctuary where the magic tools were installed.

The entrance to the sanctuary is more or less like the entrance to the mine, and the walls of the entrance are half filled with a mysterious red frame.

Maybe it's a symbol of Torii that can be built in a sacred place in this country.

”All right, let's go!

As you proceed to the back of the tunnel, you enter the large hall without spending so much time.

The decorative space was filled with intense magic, beneath which huge magic items sat.

”That's the magic item that protects this country from disasters.”

Your voice leaks without thinking it's too huge.

The engineers of the ancient East were trying to protect this country by making such a big deal.

”Hayashi....”

When I returned to Yukinojo-san's voice, there were two familiar people beside the magic item.

It's Haru-sensei and the Magus.

”Hahaha, isn't it too late, Yukinojo?”

The two had a malicious smile on their face, and it was felt that the magic item was already under their control.

”Hayashi....”

Yukinojo-san stepped forward and talked to Haru-sensei.

”What did you take the key for?!

”What do you mean...? Not now. As I told you, it's for revenge. To the general who abandoned me, to everything that didn't save me. And you stole everything from me to taste despair!

Harumi looks at Yukinoji with hate.

It seems that Haru-sensei's aim is to avenge the country and Yukinoji.

”The magic tools are already at my disposal. At first, I weakened the magic tools. If you don't stop me soon, there will be disasters all over the country.”

”Harumi, you're the main one!

”Hahahaha! Yes, I wanted to see that face! Your expression of astonishment and despair! But I told you. My name is not Harumi. It's springtime!

When Haru-sensei touches the magic item, the dark magic that would have been emitted from the magic item weakens.

Finally, the light was completely lost from the magic equipment, and at the same time, the magic sprayed again.

”Now the magic tools are completely disabled. Happy Snow Prime Minister. I've been waiting for you. To show you the moment when this country will be destroyed by irretrievable disaster!

The earth began to shake as if it were responding to those words, and cracks ran into the earth with roars like the beast's roar.

”Oh, my God!

The shake gradually increases, and parallax and earth and stone shards descend from the ceiling.

”Hey, if you stay like this, you'll be buried alive!

Apparently, the interior of the sanctuary was more fragile than we expected, and if it stays this way, it could collapse, as Liliera said.

”Activate the magic equipment immediately, Seung-seon! We're going to fall together! And once the magic tools are buried, they can't be activated again! Then you won't be able to use your magic tools to dominate this country!

Yukinojo-san is right. If you can't manipulate it, instead of using magic items to make people obey you, your life is at stake.

”Ha, I can't take your orders! You're the only ones in trouble.”

”What is it!?”

”The magic tools are ready to listen to my orders, no matter where they are. In other words, once the magic tools are buried, even if you kill me, you won't be able to make a contract to become a new lord! And in a situation of constant disaster, even if you dig up the sanctuary, it's Sekiyama that will fall again! How many years will it take to get to the magic tools? How many people do you think will die by then?

The magician smiled at Haru-sensen's words.

Looks like the wisdom of the Magus.

It's just what the Wizard says. I don't know whether the wisdom is true or not.

Then this is.....

”You're still a samurai, taking your people hostage!

”That samurai put me in this position! Now, if you don't want to sacrifice your people any more, kneel down and beg for your life....”

But I activate magic without hearing the words until the end. [M]

Grand Calm!

”Mmm!?”

I was puzzled that Harumi and the others who thought they had been attacked would stand up, but nothing happened.

Yeah, nothing happens.

”The earthquake was quelled by my magic. Your ambitions are over!

”... no, what!?”

◆ Yukinojo ◆

”Hah!?”

”Bye, stupid! Stopping disasters with people!? Magic too!? Yes!

It was said that the disaster that was supposed to happen had been quelled by Lex's magic, and the clear ministers looked stunned.

I know, I'm surprised.

But thanks to you, I can fight with confidence.

”Now, that's your ambition! Quiet, get him!

When Mina and the others hold their weapons, Haruo also holds his sword.

”Wait, Mina!

But the rest will stop Mina and the others.

”Yukinojo?

”Please, Harumi, leave it to me.”

Yes, I have to settle with Harumi.

This is the rest of my mission as a general.

”... you must take responsibility properly.

Mina, who asked for the rest of the favor, went on a small tour, but eventually accepted without asking anything.

What a good woman.

Care to speak up and sometimes stand up for us without cowardice as a son of a general.

I'm sure the rest is attracted to her.

”... thank you.”

But now, in battle, we can't afford to be distracted by extraneous things.

Immediately after switching consciousness, the rest poked the sword that had lost the Tsubaki toward Qingchen.

Hayashi! Duel!

”Huh, what?

When she was upset, she suddenly applied for a duel and her eyebrows lurked.

Fight the rest, Harumi.

”What are you... saying?

”You hate the rest, don't you? Then fight directly against the unnecessary without relying on magic tools! Fight and show them what you believe!

This is a bet.

To awaken the mind of Haruyoshi by fighting one-on-one!

”You've never beaten me before... that's good. They will take that challenge.”

You're on! Hayato was also a samurai!

”If the rest wins, you'll get the magic key back! If the Lord wins, you will have the rest of your life or the General's seat!

What a shame! I'll make you regret this word!! ”

Harumi smiles fiercely.

His face was filled with joy that he could crush it with strength.

But that's not gonna happen!

”Magus, I will kill Yukinojo. Do those Inhumans. Especially if that kid dies, there's no way to stop the disaster!

Clear minister also told the Magus that it was useless to pull out the sword and confront the rest.

But the battle never started.

”... no, you don't have to.”

”What?”
