Part 2, Episode 91:

The Power of Summer and

Winter

, Absolute Zero

is the enemy!

The blue armor instantly froze with startled eyes.

Meanwhile, the red armored sword swung, aiming for Elric’s neck.

Wedge!

He lowered his head and easily avoided the attack, then immediately tried to counterattack.

However, at that moment, I leaned back due to the feeling of death coming from below.

The tip of the spear grazed the tip of Elric’s chin.

“Tsk, that’s a shame.”

Before I knew it, the blue armor had broken free from the ice and raised its spear upwards.

The guy clicked his tongue saying it was a waste, but continued to attack.

What followed was a linked attack by the two frantic test subjects.

Chop clap!

Shush Shush –

If you avoid the spear, the sword will fly, and if you avoid the sword, the spear will fly, repeating.

Even though each attack was aimed at a critical point, it was coming in so irregularly that it was difficult to keep track of it.

All Elric can do is dodge.

Even the frequent lightning strikes made it even more difficult for him.

An attack that puts pressure on both sides to the point where there are no gaps.

It was then that the red aura was written on the sword in red armor.

“It’s over.”

He smiled wryly and drew his sword vertically in a neat posture.

Although it was clumsy, it was very similar to the posture shown by the golden lion.

Squeak!

“…!”

The ice spear imbued with divine power was split in half.

As soon as that happened, blue armor appeared behind the red armor, flashing a spear.

An attack that is shot as sharply as a bee, with the tip of the spear covered in aura.

The spear was aimed precisely at Elric’s heart.

The ice spear was broken and couldn’t be countered, and it struck at the perfect timing, leaving no time to dodge.

“【Freeze】.”

Elric stepped on the ground hard with a whisper.

Kwaaaaang!

The ice thorns bounced around like a shield, blocking the area around the heart.

It seemed strong at first glance as all magical power was concentrated to protect only one place.

Kwaaaaang!

A large wave arose around that place and spread through the air.

Elric flew far away due to the recoil and fell to the ground.

Boom quarrrr!

It continued to push forward, leaving a long furrow on the floor, but was barely able to stop as the lava met the hardened basalt ground.

“Damn….”

Patter!

As I raised my upper body while swearing, dirt and debris from the floor rained down.

Elric lowered his gaze and examined his chest.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong.

Except my body throbs a little too much.

Even that was recovering quickly thanks to the seal of youth.

“…It’s so strong.”

I had a strong feeling that if we continued to fight like this, there would be no end.

‘You never know when a siege might be established again.’

Even if these two test subjects were defeated, it would be a really big deal if they were surrounded.

‘We have to make a way, a way.’

Like everything!

The two test subjects stood in front of Elric again with great vigor.

“It would be best not to resist any further than this. “There’s no way you, a fake, can beat us anyway.”

“….”

“I have no ill feelings toward you. “We just want to be true ‘knights.’”

“article?”

“Even if I explain it, you won’t know.”

The red armor spoke in a somewhat bitter tone.

With those words, the two test subjects rushed forward in a whirlwind.

Giggling. They smile as if they are confident of their victory.

Crack!

Elric gritted his teeth and summoned the ice spear again and held it in his hand.

‘If you don’t see a way.’

Tsutsutsu –

Elric drew back his magic power. The magic stone screamed that it was dangerous as it was.

There are two types of energy summoned in that way.

Divine power and magical energy.

The magic circuit overheated once again.

‘Create.’

Everything must be secret.

Don’t let them ever find out.

It had to show overwhelming destructive power all at once.

『You really?』

Mephisto immediately realized what Elric was trying to do and asked with surprised eyes.

[So many people gathered here, right? Then shouldn’t we hold a grand feast?]

『…I just said I was crazy and crazy. You must really be crazy.』

While Mephisto shook his head, the cynicism on Elric’s lips grew even deeper.

Jeeeeee!

Holy power and magic power concentrated as if the ice spear would explode at any moment.

The two conflicting energies were creating a backlash as if they were trying to defeat each other at any moment.

It took quite a bit of effort to suppress this.

“Die Mervinger!”

“Now give me your head.”

Stinging nettle –

The moment when the test subjects move.

“Do you like fireworks?”

Elric let go of his opposing force.

That moment.

Hahaha!

A hot wind blows.

“…!”

“…!”

A halo of light illuminated the faces of the two people.

Kwaaaaaaaa!

A huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.

* * *

A vibration on a scale similar to a volcanic eruption.

When the dust that rose in the shape of a mushroom cloud completely disappeared, a deep crater-like hole was created at the place where Elric exploded.

“Cluck, cluck, cluck!”

Elric, whose body was covered in dust, was coughing while covering his mouth.

Every time he did that, a lot of dust fell from his body.

As the power was considerable, the caster also suffered some damage.

“This is why I didn’t want to use it if possible.”

A clash between divine power and magical energy.

As they are opposing forces, they react sensitively to each other to the point where sparks arise just by being close to each other.

Since the tangle was created by forcibly pressing down with such force, the repulsion force when the pressing force is released is bound to be significant.

It would be a shame to immediately build an ice wall to protect the body on the spot.

If he hadn’t even done that, it wouldn’t have been surprising if one of his arms had been blown off.

『There is no such thing as a crazy person. No matter how much you know theoretically, you can’t do those two things in that way…! ha! The king really shouldn’t say anything.』

If anything, Mephisto would shake his head and say that he was a bastard.

Elric, who had actually done this, just shrugged his shoulders and said as if nothing had happened.

[I wish I could live. Otherwise, I would be the one lying here, right?]

Elric said that and looked away.

The two test subjects had already become rags.

The armor he was wearing was shattered and his weapon was damaged.

There didn’t even seem to be any sign of waking up.

“Off…!”

The only enemy armor is barely sitting there, using a sword broken in two as a walking stick.

But the guy wasn’t all that healthy either.

Because there was nothing left below the waist.

The red armored man, who was breathing heavily, smiled bitterly and struggled to turn over.

He said while looking at the sky with unfocused eyes.

“…we are.”

-Don’t die.

In the explosion, the blue armor died first while trying to protect him.

The enemy armor thought the guy was stupid.

Even though it feels like he is going to collapse soon. I’m in so much pain that I’m dying, but I can’t believe I just rolled over for my own comfort.

It’s been like that since he was in the lab, but he was really a bad guy who only knew about himself.

Bad… bastard.

The bastard I want to see.

“I wonder if we are really destined to not be able to live as ‘humans’.”

“….”

“Until now… Cough! Because no one could do that. “I thought we were at least humane, but it turns out we weren’t.”

As he said that, his eyes seemed to contain only empty emotions.

Elric couldn’t think about what kind of life he had lived.

One thing was certain: he would not have lived a life like an ordinary person.

They were probably trained like animals and used like tools.

‘Like the test subjects in the flying boat.’

Elric couldn’t help but think of the beastmen.

Therefore, without saying anything, I quietly listened to the will that was not a will.

“I wanted to be recognized as a person… as a knight… not as an experiment…!”

Cough! Red blood spurted from his mouth.

“It’s so unfortunate that I died without being able to do that.”

A face that looks like it might burst into tears at any moment.

Before he knew it, he was visibly shaking.

perhaps.

The ‘real Mervinger’ or ‘disciple of the golden lion’ they were hoping for might have been a means to gain ‘recognition’.

Recognition that I would not have received because I was used as a tool all my life.

“You have been a sufficient knight.”

“…!”

Elric lowered his posture and held the hand holding the sword as he spoke.

“Better than any article I’ve ever seen.”

Elric then placed his red armored hand on his chest.

When I looked at him again, he was out of breath with a smile brighter than ever.

Quickly.

Elric stood up and gritted his teeth.

Even though they are experimental subjects, from what they say, they are no different from ordinary people.

The only difference is whether it was created artificially or not.

The feelings they had were the same as other people’s.

The test subjects also wanted to live with recognition like other people.

The Golden Lion and the Inspector General use their hopes as bait for their own purposes.

The fact that he was one of them was just disgusting.

“I can’t forgive you either.”

Elric’s fist naturally gained strength.

His gaze turned to another siege in the distance.

It looks like it’s about to attack the enemies at any moment.

Mephisto looked at Elric with an expressionless face and blurted out a word.

『You look very tired. Are you okay? We have only just broken through the first siege, so how are we going to break through the second and third sieges, which are full of stronger people?』

“….”

It wasn’t wrong.

As he said, in order to get to the Summer Grave, we had to break through an even more dense siege.

The enemies there will have much higher skills than the knights and swordsmen we saw in the first siege.

『So, I think it would be better to back off here and look for the next opportunity?』

“No.”

『…?』

But Elric had no intention of backing down from here.

“The reason they are so fully prepared is because the summer tomb has not been excavated yet.”

In other words, there is still a lot to gain from the Summer Tomb, so they desperately try to block Elric.

If he lost the summer inheritance, the Inspection Bureau and the Sajagong family would lose that much.

“If we’re not careful, the grave robbing could end in the meantime.”

Therefore, as Mephisto said, it was a situation where there was no way to take a step back.

『Even if I could die?』

“Yes.”

Elric spoke with a stern expression while struggling to catch his breath.

Mephisto sighed at seeing him like that.

『Ha… I can’t help it. If your resolve is like that, the King will help you a little.』

“…What?”

The moment Elric asked what that meant, the seal of original sin suddenly began to glow brightly.

“…!”

Elric’s eyes widened as he immediately realized the meaning of those words.

Clunk –

The sound of something opening.

Mephisto’s magical energy flowed out from the seal.

Some of the power he had wanted to use had been unlocked.

The magic energy not only filled Elric’s empty magic stones and magic circuits, but also quickly spread throughout the body.

Even though it is only a ‘part’ of the power of the seal.

The amount was overwhelmingly large.

It was as if a huge tsunami was right in front of me!

‘how…!’

The magic stone that Elric possesses is actually created by mixing the energies of Shainark and Mephisto.

Therefore, it would be right for there to be no power left in the seal of original sin.

Where on earth did something like this come from?

thud!

Thump thump thump!

Thump thump thump thump…!

My heart started beating like crazy.

at the same time.

Hahaha!

The world surrounding Elric has expanded ‘widely’.

It felt similar to when I absorbed a man-eating wolf before.

It literally feels omnipotent.

‘This is Mephi’s view…!’

Right now at this moment.

Mephisto’s possession was about to begin.
