LIGHTNOVELONLINE 95.
Aiko could be seen standing in front of a totally charred man.
" are you OK?
-damn ugh
and despite that, the man was still alive.
-b$%&
"I shouldn't say that sir, do you want one more llama? I still have mana
the dagger-using man surrendered
"Huh, who says I need to kill to win? You lost sister Akane
Aiko turned to the bomb ready to defuse it, but the bomb started to get weird, the flashing red light started making sounds, Aiko covered her ears, but she still heard the man's voice.
- At last, I will be one with my lord! Yes!
"damn crazy
the man on the floor looked from him to Aiko before making a smile.
" That's crazy
-hahahaha, see you brat, before you die I'll let you try the feeling of the Lord
"I don't want to taste anything from you, only Ren can give me something
Aiko said with a small smile.
the man couldn't answer as he bit a pill into his mouth.
His body began to convulse horribly as his veins turned black and exploded.
Aiko just made a shield of fire while she got bitter, she bet she didn't need to kill to win someone, but she didn't expect the fool to kill himself.
Aiko's phone had been broken in the fight and she couldn't borrow Hina's help.
but out of nowhere, Aiko felt something strange in her flame shield, now she had better control and she could make shields that can withstand sword blows easily and sing a spell.
Aiko looked around her and saw a black spot on her shield starting to grow.
the black stain began to eat the mana from the shield and began to grow more and more, Aiko got worried and it got worse when one of the artifacts lit up.
- my heaven!
Aiko heard her father's voice and immediately got worried since the artifact was for emergencies.
"Dad!? What is this?
- stay away from that! that's dark mana! your body should not touch it for anything in the world!
Aiko got scared by that and tried to cut off her mana with the shield, but she couldn't, that black stain was sticking to her spell.
"Daddy, what do I do? Can't cut the connection
- ugh, is the hero of light with you? he could sever the connection with his sword
"I'll go get him
Aiko ignored the flame that was behind her that kept eating her mana and ran towards the center of the stadium, not knowing where Kiriko was, she took a deep breath to calm down.
As she ran she saw the security cameras following her, assuming something, she yelled
"Hina! where is kiriko?
- I will mark the route, run miss Aiko the bomb will explode in 3, 2, 1
Aiko got scared and waited for an explosion.
but nothing
" what happened?
Aiko watched as thick violet smoke appeared in the distance behind her, but before she got close, a giant armored door blocked her path.
- The bomb is releasing a mist, I have permission from the director to control the doors.
"thank the goddess
Aiko kept running towards the location of Kiriko's fight which was in the closed parking lot.
what stopped her was that when looking at her shield, she saw that the entire shield of what were once red flames, was now black flames.
"kya!
Aiko tried to throw the flames away with all her might, but she couldn't.
she saw from the tip of her white hand appeared a black vein-like line that kept growing and advancing across her palm.
Her body became weak and Aiko fell to the ground.
In her blurry vision, she watched as the stadium wall froze and shattered revealing the image of Eira coming in her combat outfit.
Seeing Aiko in such a state, Eira first froze Aiko's arm before the dark mana penetrates the other organs.
"Hina, where is Kiriko?
- unfortunately, he is...
.
.
.
at the same time that Aiko finished carbonizing the dagger subject.
She could be seen in Parking Lot A at Amerie pointing her bow at a pillar.
"You know it's bad to keep a lady waiting?
- fuck you damn b#$/&
"including the bad words
The poor man had come confident with his crossbow against amerie with a bow thinking it would be easy, but he never imagined in his life that the brat could grab and shoot arrows faster than he takes in his automatic crossbow.
-dammit!
the man had an arrow in his leg and a hole in his shoulder
the only reason why he is still alive is that the elf doesn't want to kill him, but to capture him.
when the man thought he couldn't make it, a saving grace came.
His watch sent a vibration to his wrist, it was a vibration indicating the kamikaze plan.
-LOL
Amerie who had her bow still pointed at the pillar was surprised by the man's laugh.
Amerie saw how the man came out of hiding behind the pillar running towards her, the thing is that the man had black veins all over her body.
Amerie shot, but the man didn't flinch and kept running towards her.
Amerie, I hear 2 voices at the same time
-girl, create a shield
- for my lord!!!!
Amerie immediately obeyed Sylph's voice to witness the man bulge and explode into pieces shooting some kind of black liquid around.
When Amerie opened her eyes, she saw how many black spots appeared on her shield and began to grow around her shield.
-girl, give me control of your spell!
Amerie fearfully nodded and Sylph next to her grabbed the shield and first took out all the mana from Amerie's body and threw it into the shield as she cut the connection at the end of Amerie's mana.
Amerie slumped to the floor in sudden exhaustion.
As she panted, she asked Sylph
"Wha- what was that?
- it was the only way to prevent you from getting infected.
" What?
- Forget it, go defuse the bomb.
Amerie nodded and took her phone, but at that moment the bright light from the bomb began to flicker.
Sylph noticed the movement of mana inside the bomb, so she grabbed Amerie and dragged her with mana as far as possible.
" What's up!?
- that damn bomb is about to explode
you could hear Hina's voice at that time
- 3, 2, 1
-...
"...
" what happened?
Hina spoke through a speaker on the wall informing Amerie of what was happening.
- the bomb is releasing some type of smoke, please go to an open area.
Amerie nodded and Sylph started running as she talked to Hina.
-Hina, where is Ren?
"He's in a battle
- against whom?
"the leader of the attackers
-what!?
.
.
.
At the same time that Amerie was chatting with the man with the crossbow, Kara the situation was not so good.
you could see Kara and the corridors of the stadium totally destroyed.
the young man in front of Kara was fucking slippery and wouldn't stop moving.
"ha... ha... how do you do it?
Kara said with a body covered in wounds, her armor was broken in places.
she wanted to use her recovery potions, but the boy always prevented him from even doing that, at this point, the brat was playing with Kara.
- hehe, do you want to know the secret of my strength?
" Will you tell me?
Kara asked somewhat surprised.
-hahaha, of course, it's always good to help little ones like me
a vein popped out on Kara's forehead, but she held it back as she waited for what the little boy would say.
- it's simple, I want to be one with the cats, if I plan to be one, I don't need to change anything to be able to use these claws, I just need to feel like one so I can use their abilities, you should be one with your deck, so you can use it better
"ha!? That doesn't make sense, why do I need to be one with the weapon? I need to control the weapon so that it does what I want
-sister? ha... forget it, I'm too lazy to play with you.
the boy retracted his legs and jumped towards Kara.
but at the moment that he was 5 meters from Kara, above and below him appeared 2 stone pillars that held him completely
"hahaha I beat your little cat, and now you look like a trapped mouse
Kara said before throwing herself to the ground and dropping her mallet
-you! I guess you won big sister
the little boy said as he stopped moving.
" of course
- but your height tells me that you are smaller
A black line appeared on Kara's forehead.
but the boy didn't notice because he was looking at her watch.
-by the way sister
" What do you want?
- you should get away from here
"what?
- I just got an order from the kamikaze plan, see you later sister
After saying that, the boy pressed the hidden pill into his tooth and it began to fill with black lines as his body grew.
Kara immediately took out a shield-type artifact.
The blast didn't reach her, but her artifact ended up in nothing.
Kara looked at the artifact her father left for emergencies.
the artifact could take about 5 hits from an A rank with no problem.
"ha...
At that moment Kara's phone rang.
- Miss Kara, get out of there the bomb is about to explode
Kara immediately drank a potion and started running trying to get away from her, she heard Hina's voice counting through the speakers.
-3, 2, 1
I didn't hear a boom
but Kara watched as a thick purple corrosive mist began to come out of the bomb
"by the forge!
Kara ran as fast as she could while Hina activated emergency shutdowns trying to block the path of the smoke.
.
.
.
at the same time, Kara was having a chat with the little boy.
she could see Kuroka who was looking at her rapier while the crazy guy was on the ground.
-b$%&/
Turns out the guy was wearing insulated boots for some reason and couldn't have been electrocuted.
Kuroka decided to fight with his new weapon.
a rapier
In the game, Kuroka had a rapier, she had a great talent for it.
But since Kuroka had a level 10 talent in magic, she decided to be a mage instead of a swordswoman.
when ren trained kuroka, after half a month kuroka's magic results were not as good as Aiko's.
so ren made her try a rapier, at first kuroka didn't want to, but seeing ren she couldn't say no either, it felt weird for her that she can't say no to ren.
Trying out the rapier, Kuroka became familiar with it very quickly, even surpassing Kumiko's learning speed.
Since then she trains with the rapier every time she can, ever since she lost to Aiko, Kuroka decided to concentrate on finding another method besides magic, and today she decided to try it.
and ended in great success.
Looking at the man on the ground, Kuroka snorted before going to the bomb.
Turning her back on the man, a weird sound was heard as Kuroka was going to turn around, but Hina told her.
-do not turn around miss, for nothing in the world look back
"why?
- that man is mas$%$$
"ugh
Kuroka couldn't help but make a disgusted face.
- I agree with you, I'll make sure to burn that recording, whatever, and go to the pump.
the man who had received his kamikaze orders had decided on a final pull the goose before he died.
-for my lord!
he said before biting the pill into his tooth.
As the man began to kneel while a black liquid came out of his veins, Hina with already experienced 2 other girls screamed.
- Miss go away!
Kuroka without thinking ran to the kitchen, but she couldn't make it in time.
a drop fell on his leg.
"ugh
Kuroka looked at his leg which was starting to turn black.
Kuroka immediately used mana to try to stop the advance of the blood using the principles of water.
but his leg began to go into necrosis due to a lack of oxygen
Kuroka's expression was one filled with pain.
his mana was doing everything she could to stop the poison, but she was running out of mana.
at that moment Sadiki appeared.
Sadiki came running to the nearest spot from where he was with Re and Kevin earlier because Hina reported on the attack, Kevin and Re ran to help Shiro evacuate the innocents.
when Kuroka saw Sadiki's face, he felt like he saw an angel and thought that he was about to die.
Kuroka couldn't help but confess his sins with sweat on his forehead, his mind already numb with the pain he could only say the first thing that came to mind.
"I want to ask the holiness of him to give me a chance to try ren's food before I die, sir
Sadiki who was trying to cure the poison on Kuroka's foot was stunned for a moment before commenting.
- I think you should tell my king, miss, don't worry, I'll make sure to give you that opportunity.
Kuroka's infection had reached her knee, and her mana now unconsciously to protect her tried to stop the flow of blood almost without success leaving her leg about to need an amputation.
Sadiki locked her knee with a downward seal with holy mana on kuroka while thinking.
'um, her mana despite being level 10 is not strong enough to stop the advance, I just spent a lot of mana to remove 99% of this poison, only something stronger than this water talent could save her.
Sadiki thought of something while he was telepathically communicating with his siblings, and something occurred to them.
' I only have enough strength to be able to stop this for a few days, I guess it will depend on my king and that seed that Kevin said.
looking at the girl who fainted because she couldn't stand the pain.
Sadiki smiled wryly before informing one of her guards disguised as civilians to come to get her, Sadiki left Kuroka, then got up and ran as fast as she could towards Kiriko's location, his mother had just told her that there was a way to save everyone.
.
.
.
Kiriko and Kumiko could be seen looking at the middle brother, who was on the ground
- It can't be, I lost
"ha, ha... you should surrender, the police will be here soon.
-hahaha! damn shit, I lost to a fucking brat!
- you should shut up unhappy
- kill me! let me meet my brother!
"We will not kill you, you will go to jail to pay for your crimes and rectify yourself
the man blinked a couple of times before laughing and finishing he say
- You are very innocent hero of light, do you think I want to do it?
"You will or you will stay locked up forever.
Kiriko said seriously.
-LOL!
Kumiko and Kiriko were going to ignore the mean bastard, they left him tied up with a rope, while they moved to defuse the bomb, but at that moment Kumiko for some reason heard something behind
and looking behind him he saw the man who was running towards them while he was covered in black lines.
Kumiko immediately put his shield in front of Kiriko as he pushed him away.
Kumiko jumped behind a pillar to avoid the exploding bastard.
but 3 drops fell on Kumiko's left leg
Kiriko who just realized what happened ran towards Kumiko leaving the melting shield on the ground.
"Kumiko!!!
Kumiko had made a tourniquet while enduring the pain.
Kiriko watched as Kumiko's leg from his heel began to turn black.
"No!!!
Kumiko looked at his leg, she knew he wouldn't make it.
Kiriko immediately tries to use light magic to heal her, but light magic is not up to the level of holy magic.
That's why he could only retain the infection, but once the mana runs out, Kumiko will die.
"No, please, please don't.
Kiriko said while he cried.
Kumiko's face was pale, that black liquid took away a lot of vitality in his body.
Kumiko could only hold Kiriko's arm and smile at him while in his heart he said goodbye to him and closed his eyes.
the purple smoke that had come out at some point surrounded Kumiko and kiriko as she couldn't get close thanks to a mana shield that surrounded them at some point.
meanwhile elsewhere.
Shiro wanted to lead everyone out of the stadium, but Shiro was informed by one of the remaining guards that the stadium was completely surrounded by men dressed in black.
Shiro could only grit her teeth and go drop the people inside the shelter and then clean up all those guys.
Hina was able to hack a bomb that was hidden in the emergency shelter inside the stadium, where she couldn't receive the kill signal from the man Ren killed, thanks to that Shiro was able to find it and manually disarm it, then Hina absorbed the data.
the smoke would expand throughout the stadium, using a machine previously placed by the spy student, all the smoke would be guided from the first-year stadium to the other places of All, once the needle is reached they could infect the capital.
Shiro now knew that such a detailed plan cannot be done by outsiders alone, there must have been traitors among the nobles, inside the shelter Shiro had an anxious expression as he listened to the bad news report.
The thing is, even if one of the bombs is missing, that doesn't mean the smoke won't spread to the middle of the shelter sooner or later.
in fact, the shelter where all the people were was also beginning to corrode under the effect of the smoke.
Ren who was outside the stadium also frowned at Hina's report.
looking at the smoke that spread ren could only say
"Ha... I guess it's over.
- there is a method my king
Ren heard Sadiki's voice in his mind.
"Really? What do you need Sadiki?
- Excalibur could clean the whole stadium
"but it doesn't have that function?
-my mother just told me yes
" Gabriel?
-Yes
Sadiki sent ren the information, and ren started thinking about that pure cleansing spell, Excalibur could cleanse the impurities, but it would cost a massive amount of kiriko's mana, kiriko doesn't come close to the required range.
-My King
" Yes?
-kiriko could activate it if he uses talent as a sacrifice
Ren blinked a few times before saying.
" you are crazy?
- not my king, kiriko agreed
"Hey!?
.
.
.
A few moments before Sadiki made contact with Ren, the path used his holy power as a shield from being corroded.
once he arrived before kiriko, he saw kiriko on the ground using his mana to prevent the infection from reaching Kumiko's heart.
Sadiki looked at the man who is the hero, but now he is just a boy.
Sadiki decided to use a heavy hand to help Kiriko this time, he needed to grow up.
"Do you know why you failed?
-what?
"Do you know why you failed?
Kiriko heard a voice, in his state he thought he was going crazy.
everything was dark around him and the only light was from his magic, so he thought he was delusional.
Looking at what happened so far, Kiriko could only conclude something.
- I... lack strength?
Sadiki shook her head in denial.
"The reason why the Kumiko is like this is only that you couldn't kill it
Kiriko thought about it.
the man exploded because kiriko gave him the opportunity.
Kiriko's lifeless gaze fixed on Kumiko's pale face.
-I... I wanted him to face the law
Sadiki looking at Kiriko told him directly.
"Did you want that? or were you afraid of having blood on your hands?
-...
Sadiki only sighed before moving forward and kneeling beside Kiriko.
"I'll leave it to your thoughts, I come here to give you a way out
-what?
Kiriko looked stupidly at Sadiki.
"ren?
Sadiki said with a smile remembering the king's orders from him.
"You don't need to know where I come from, but as you suspected, I have the honor of being linked to my king for more than just mana, it is a pride for me.
-...
"The angel Gabriel told me that the sword Excalibur can release an amount of holy mana into the air, so you could clean your lady and you could clean the bombs saving the people in the shelter and your comrades
-...
life returned to kiriko's eyes as he answered
- What do I have to do?
"You will have to sacrifice one of your 4 talents, the cost is incredibly large, and not even if you exhaust all your life energy would I be able to afford it normally.
- I will do it
looking at kiriko's determined face, sadiki nodded with satisfaction and put a finger on kiriko's forehead teaching him the spell, it seems that the chose one of that goddesses if he is a good boy.
Sadiki, Re, and Kevin are now living beings.
they have thoughts and create memories day by day.
even so, if necessary the 3 would give their lives for ren without thinking for a second.
but kiriko would sacrifice one of his 4 talents.
that would limit his fighting options and his future growth immediately.
the spell that Sadiki gave to kiriko could also be used only on Kumiko by spending only part of his mana pool, then kiriko could leave there.
But despite knowing this, Sadiki saw no doubt in Kiriko's expression.
Sadiki nodded in satisfaction and replaced kiriko with his magic holding Kumiko back.
unlike kuroka, Kumiko received a more concentrated amount of dark mana in her, Sadiki with the mana she had left was already having a hard time keeping the infection still
Kiriko took out Excalibur and stared at the blade for a moment.
Kiriko then said her wish for him.
'save everyone in exchange for my air talent.
The sword gleamed brightly, Kiriko felt a piece of her flesh ripped from her, but he gritted his teeth and endured.
the holy power began to shoot out in large quantities, covering the entire stadium.
Kiriko began to spit blood as she felt something break inside him.
his body fell to the ground.
Sadiki looked at Kiriko, then watched as a small point of light came out of the sword and headed towards the main entrance of the academy.
Sadiki, seeing that point of light, kept her eyes open, and then smiled as he closed Kumiko's wound and healed Kiriko's internal wounds.
"As expected of the king, he is the chosen one.
.
.
.
at the same time ren after receiving the notification from Sadiki, saw how from the stadium the smoke began to dissipate at a great rate while the hemisphere of sacred mana replaced everything.
at that moment that which pierced into ren began to rush its infection as if it was afraid of the holy aura.
Ren gritted his teeth as he tried to control his brain and send out orders to slow down the infection with everything he had left.
but the pain of doing so surpassed his imagination, ren passed out.
at that moment the small ball of golden energy entered the wounded body and was infected.
When I entered, a voice was heard inside Ren.
-ha... I thought to use this to give you power, but don't expect me to have to use it to save you ren.
-although this that he left that garbage could work to get it from the world tree.
2 notifications appeared at that time.
