Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 470

◈ 470. [Side Story] Forgive me not (3)

flashing-!

Kugwagwagwagwang!

Lightning strikes, the wind blows.

Junior and Raina continued their battle..

Junior suppressed his pounding chest, swallowed the blood gushing inside, and continued to attack..

Raina was still overwhelming in person-to-person combat proficiency. In order to fight against Raina, Junior unleashed all of his magical power..

As if time after this does not exist, without sparing anything.

“Haha, haha, huh!”

I'm out of breath..

It feels like my entire body's magical power will burn out due to the harsh use of magical power. But Junior persevered..

……Junior thought.

How can living be so painful?.

The world is always unfair and sometimes resentful..

Even if you overcome one adversity, what you see again is the next adversity.

Without a clear answer key or plausible explanation… … You have to face it yourself, get hurt, and move on..

There are only things that are not easy.

Life itself is hard and harsh..

“Haha, haha, haha……!”

But that's why,

this life has value.

Because I went through a path that was never easy, because I crawled all the way here with scars on my face.…….

Because the hills of adversity that we have overcome have piled up and become a high peak..

- You've come this far.

You can look back and feel proud of yourself..

At the same time, it is possible to not give up while looking at the road ahead..

- I've overcome all kinds of hardships, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get over one more hill in front of me..

I think of the enemies I've faced in the past..

The Wolf King, the Goblin God King, and the Ghost Privateer Captain,

The vampire king…….

Countless monsters. Endless adversity. recall.

I overcame all those harsh times..

What is the reason why we cannot overcome the adversity in front of us??

Return to school! Going to school!

Kwagwagwagwang-!

“Pfft!”

Junior, who was thrown away by Raina's gust of wind, quickly regained his bearings and fired a thunderbolt..

“Hmm!”

Reina dodged the lightning and fired a magic bullet of wind with her fingertips..

Junior coughed up blood profusely. She had already reached her own limit..

Nevertheless, as he continued the bloody battle by squeezing out his magic power, Junior suddenly smiled..

Maybe the world will end at any moment.

It might be easier to give up fighting, accept defeat, and hide..

but-

‘I'd rather fight and die than hide in fear.’

That was the way of life Jupiter Jr. chose..

Burning every last bit, every last piece..

Clunk, clank, clank-!

The staff in Junior's hand, [Lord of Crimson], was distorted arbitrarily, making irregular mechanical sounds..

[Lord of Crimson], which was purified just before, gained several new features..

Among them, the one I want to use now is this-

High-speed chanting, which was one of the unique powers of the Vampire King Selendion.)!

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

The [Lord of Crimson] finished preparations, emitting red magical light..

“……?!”

Reina, sensing something unusual, raised her eyes..

From the beginning, Junior was imbuing this wand with magic. The battle with Raina was just to buy time..

And once he had enough magical power, [Lord of Crimson] completed one spell at once using the high-speed chanting function..

Clang-!

The sound of a crack in space rang out in the air..

A brilliant halo appeared in the sky, and light flowed along the broken space..

[Elemental Deconstruction].

Junior's ultimate and strongest Mana-burn skill, which reduces the target's magical power to a negative number..

However, [Elemental Deconstruction] has one fatal weakness. It was an overwhelmingly long casting time..

In a battlefield where life changes by the second, [Elemental Deconstruction], which takes more than ten minutes to cast, was an ultimate skill that was difficult to use except in a water battle situation..

However, thanks to Nightmare Slayer's new feature, Junior was able to use his ultimate skill without giving Reina a chance to react..

‘Oh my, I got hit……?!’

[Raina, who knew the power of [Elemental Deconstruction], gritted her teeth. She thought that soon all her magic would evaporate from her own body..

But, it wasn't.

Junior did not use his ultimate on Raina from the beginning..

What Junior was aiming for... … The Shutdown Protocol magic circle was right behind Raina..

It was the center.

Cheer up! Clang-!

A continuous sound like breaking glass rang out, and the magic power concentrated in the center of the huge magic circle evaporated at once..

From the material magic power prepared to use the shutdown protocol to the spare magic power that makes up the basic magic circle..

Under Junior's ultimate skill, they all evaporated without discrimination..

“……her.”

Reina was dumbfounded by this sight and opened her mouth small..

Now the shutdown protocol has become a joke like an empty ship that has lost fuel..

If the outer magic circle was normal, you could recharge by drawing magic power from the outside, but currently, the outer magic circle is also being attacked and is being neutralized one by one..

In this situation, the central magic circle, which is the operating part, has been discharged..

In fact, the shutdown protocol is now completely neutralized..

“……If I had been hit directly by an attack spell, there would have been room to reuse it..”

Reina let out a laugh as she looked down at the facility, where all the magic had evaporated and was no longer a magic circle, but just meaningless lines and symbols engraved on the floor..

“This is unusable. completely… … it's over.”

“…….”

“But I made a mistake, Junior. The order is reversed..”

Raina glared at Junior. Junior was leaning against her wall, panting heavily..

In an intense battle, even the ultimate skill, which consumes extremely high magic power, was used..

Junior is now completely depleted of magical power. Raina chewed her lip as she looked at Junior, her pale complexion bleeding from her nose..

“If you were going to target it, you should have targeted me first. I should have destroyed the magic circle after that..”

“…….”

“If I neutralize the magic circle first, I'll be fine like this.…….”

Raina took long strides towards Junior, gathering the magic power of the wind at her fingertips..

“Even if I kill you, it still remains.”

“…….”

“You made a fatal mistake, Junior. As a wizard, I should have been more calm. Even if you just changed the magic order, it would be much better.-”

Instead of listening to Raina's growling words anymore,.

Junior staggered and moved his legs forward, spreading his arms wide to both sides and…….

wobble.

I just hugged Reina and hugged her..

With a face that is extremely peaceful. With a vague smile on your lips.

“…….”

Raina's whole body stiffened..

Junior whispered softly..

“are you okay.”

“…….”

“We're okay with this…….”

Reina could not understand the meaning of this hug..

What is okay?.

Who do we mean?.

I couldn't figure anything out..

……Looking back, Jupiter was like that too..

On days when we had a heated argument, he would come to me without saying a word, hug me tightly, and not let me go until I let go of my anger..

They say one hug can tell more stories than a hundred-word conversation..

The woman who smiled…….

“…….”

Raina widened her eyes as if she was dumbfounded and remained still in place like a stone statue..

“……idiot.”

Place your magically-charged fingertips on Junior’s chest.,

“Really... … You look just like my mom.”

I shot without hesitation.

Going to school-!

The magical power gathered from the deepest part of Raina's heart pierced Junior's heart..

***

Junior's heart was pierced by Raina's magic..

Junior thought that death would come now. but it wasn't.

“……?”

When I opened my eyes trembling, I found that I was still breathing..

Junior blinked at this incomprehensible phenomenon and eventually discovered it..

Rayna, who fired the magical power, was seen lying on the floor..

“Lord Rayna……?!”

Embarrassed, Junior stumbled and approached Raina. Reina had a pale complexion and blood was dripping from the corner of her mouth..

“……After using up all the magic power until the magic furnace is empty. Residual elements are revealed at the bottom.”

“yes?”

“I'm saying it wasn't a bad environment to perform the last surgery..”

Reina coughed up blood roughly..

“Cough! ha… … I removed all residual elements remaining in your magic channel, and transferred the ‘source magic power’ of my heart to your magic channel..”

“what is that……?”

“No more… … Even if the residual elements arise again, there will be no need to dig up your magic furnace. Because my source magic will absorb it.…….”

Source horsepower.

A type of so-called innate true energy that acts like a magic core for human magicians..

Since it is the source of life, a wizard who loses it is naturally... … Die.

Raina implanted her own heart into Junior's heart..

“why? why… … Doing something like this?”

When Junior asked because he didn't understand, Raina laughed with blurry eyes..

“Don't be mistaken. Because I didn't do it out of guilt toward you or a sense of justice..”

“…….”

“I failed my mission, and even if I survive, I will be caught as a high traitor who attempted to massacre the citizens of the imperial capital. Before that, all you have to do is commit suicide cleanly as a soldier..”

Raina's breathing became increasingly weak. Raina muttered in her dying voice..

“But you were just in front of me... … I was going to commit suicide anyway, so I just gave you one last whim..”

“…….”

“The reason the residual elements were carved into your heart was because of my magic bombardment in the first place.…….”

Raina managed to smile with trembling, blood-stained lips..

“That's all.”

“…….”

Junior didn’t bother to ask..

Even though there were several opportunities to kill him during the battle, why did he keep watching?.

Even though I had several opportunities to activate the magic circle, why did I keep putting it off?.

Why did you act as a teacher until the end and teach yourself how to be a wizard?.

I didn't bother to ask why.

'Cause she's a villain.

Because she decided to die like a villain.

Reina, who had fallen to the floor, raised her trembling hand. Junior held her hand together..

“don't forgive me.”

“Okay.”

Junior nodded..

“For the rest of my life, I will never forgive you.”

“…….”

“and… … For the rest of my life, I will never forget you.”

A look of satisfied relief flashed across Raina's wrinkled face..

“That's enough.”

Even though Raina didn't ask for it, Junior found a cigarette in her arms and put it to her mouth. She and she lit the fire.

Reina, who sucked in the smoke for the last time, whispered.

“Hey Jupiter daughter.”

“Please speak.”

“Someday, when the world becomes peaceful and you grow old enough. Building a villa with a swimming pool in the warm, sunny south... … Have a great retirement.”

Suddenly, an image from a long time ago flashed before Reina's eyes..

“……It's a life that your mother and I only promised but never enjoyed..”

Wearing the same military uniform, smoking the same cigarette, joking and flirting together..

The appearance of the long-awaited thunderbolt.

“Since my life has already been extended, by all means…….”

Raina's eyes slowly closed..

“Live long and happily…….”

Tuk.

A cigarette fell from Raina's mouth..

Junior held her cold hand and looked at her collapsed face..

will remember.

In the end, I couldn't forgive or take revenge..

The face of this sinful soldier who took his life and gave it back at the end.

Until the end of this life, Junior will remember.

After laying down Raina's body, Junior stood up shakily..

I leaned on my cane, straightened my shaky back, and looked at the sky..

The rain is still pouring - but the sky is more dazzling than ever.

After risking death, life began again.

And since she's alive, she must keep running.

Junior looked up at the Palace of Thorns, which was constantly soaring toward the sky..

Now, only the final battle remains in the battle to conquer the Imperial Capital..

***

Over New Terra.

‘‘The Last Ark’, inside the Palace of Thorns. throne room.

“Heo-eok, heo-eok, heo-eok…….”

“…….”

“…….”

Fernandez and I were dumbfounded when we saw the person who suddenly appeared at the entrance to the throne room..

I hesitantly called the other person’s name..

“……Larque type?”

Even though I was in such a miserable state, losing all my limbs, how on earth did I get here?.

With only half of my remaining forearm, I wiped away the sweat from my haggard face.,

“I'm here to get you, little brothers..”

The First Prince of the Empire, Larc 'Avalanche' Everblack smiled..

“Let's go home together.”
