Chapter 433
I couldn’t believe it, but I thought I was actually absorbing Mora.
‘If this is the case, overdoing it will not be a problem.’
You have successfully achieved the final goal of this labyrinth exploration, ‘Acquisition of Mora’.
What’s the point of this exhaustion?
Considering the risks that might arise later, this group of people is nothing.
‘It’s really nothing if you think about attacking the other 3rd and 4th stages later.’
Considering the amount of mana in the black castle, it is unlikely that there will be more than 5 stages.
I can only say that finding Mora here in Stage 2 was luck.
‘If this happens, it’s a problem joining Adela’s now… … .’
Mora’s Holy Relic, which was the target, was found.
There was no need to attack the labyrinth anymore.
All that remains is to get out of the labyrinth safely.
In order to do that, you must first join your colleagues.
Escaping from the labyrinth comes after that.
“Heir.”
thinking so.
Mimir called me.
“It’s confirmed. As the heir said, the seal is broken.”
Mora’s analysis seems to be over.
“Then can I just put it in the AS?”
The fact that there is no seal is the same as saying that there is no problem in touching it separately.
You could just get your hands on it.
“no. That’s not allowed.”
Mimir shook his head with a disapproving expression.
“Currently, Mora’s holy relics are raw and unprocessed. The moment you touch it, you will be sucked into the relic.”
“Isn’t it okay to block the mana and put it in the ace?”
Raw or something, in the end, if I don’t blow my mana into the relic, there’s nothing to be sucked into the relic.
The holy relic has such a structure.
Mimir shook his head in disbelief.
“Currently, Mora’s relic is enchanted with time fixation. It is impossible to obtain it without using mana.”
“The time of the holy relic is fixed?”
“huh. That’s why it floats motionless like that.”
It was the first time I heard it.
Is the time fixed?
Did you find out in the process of analyzing mana?
“To break the time lock on the holy relic, you have to intervene again using Finis. Then, mana will inevitably reach the relic. then… … .”
“As mana flows naturally, my body is sucked into the relic. That’s it.”
“right.”
Mimir nodded with a serious expression.
“Because it’s not just the mind that gets sucked into the relic. Even if they were sucked in, there wouldn’t be any problems with the heir’s body… … .”
“It’s not something you’d do now, when you have to find the kids.”
“that’s right.”
For now, you should prioritize joining your colleagues.
It is not too late to obtain Mora after all safety has been secured.
“Then, leave Mora as it is for now, and start with the other kids… … .”
let’s find
It was time to say that.
Aaaaaaaaaagh-!
One side of the wall collapsed with an explosion.
A thick layer of dust spewed out from the collapsed wall, forming a fog-like appearance.
‘That’s… … .’
Through the fog created by the dust, a silhouette is visible.
Silhouette of a woman holding a sword.
“Kuh… … !”
it’s stellar
The moment I was so sure, another explosion erupted.
A faint crashing sound peculiar to iron was heard between the explosions.
Then a strong wind blew, blowing away all the dust.
‘stellar?’
Beyond the open field of vision, I see Stella.
Holding the sword with both hands, blocking a huge fist.
Her clothes were torn here and there, and her body was covered in dust.
There are only three wounds that can be seen with the naked eye.
His expression is also serious, and at first glance, it looks like an unusual situation.
“Heir, that… … A lump of flesh!”
The dust was completely blown away, and the monster that Stella was blocking with her sword was completely revealed.
It’s very similar to the chunks of flesh I dealt with.
Buy it, but it depends.
Its unique disgusting atmosphere and skin texture are almost identical.
‘Did Stella also play against the boss monster like me on the other side?’
It seems so.
‘If Stella struggles… … Do you really have a trait like ignoring physical attacks?’
In fact, monsters don’t even have a single wound.
I wonder if it has a property like nullifying physical attacks that feels similar to nullifying magic.
‘No, now is not the time to be thinking like this.’
I threw myself straight at Stella.
“stellar!”
“… … !”
Stella opened her eyes wide when she heard my voice.
“Ha, Mr. Ha Yul!”
Then, with a relieved expression, he called my name.
Woo-woo-!
Then, the monster swung its fist again.
It swings its fists at a tremendous speed that does not seem like a gigantic one.
“… … Kut!”
Stella bit her lip and swung her sword.
The momentary brilliance of Stella’s sword.
It was a powerful sword that would have been normal if it had cut off the whole body with fists.
Caan-!
Stella’s black fist couldn’t even hurt him.
“Kyaaak!”
While holding the sword, it bounces back as it is.
‘also… … !’
As I expected, it seems to be an entity with properties such as nullifying physical attacks.
I immediately took Stella’s body and cast a spell.
“Joe, watch out! that guy The attack doesn’t work at all… … !”
Stella hurriedly shouted at me about his traits.
“No, stay still!”
I interrupted Stella and cast a spell.
There was no way he could have the two characteristics of nullifying magic and nullifying physical attacks at the same time.
Even a simple magic could do it.
I shot the magic with such confidence.
at that time.
“… … Hee hee.”
A ghastly laugh came from my chest.
“total… … !”
Mimir’s panicked voice was also heard.
successor.
Mimir couldn’t even pronounce the three-syllable word.
With a puzzled expression on the world, ‘Reg… … He only shouted one syllable, ‘!’
‘what?’
I cast magic and lowered my gaze.
In order to ascertain the source of the creepy laughter suddenly heard and the cause of Mimir’s panic.
He lowered his eyes to the direction where the sound came from and to the direction Mimir was looking at.
sigh.
Where my gaze was directed, of course, Stella was there.
“Are you finally showing the gap?”
He stabbed his sword at me with an expression more creepy than the ghastly laughter he just heard.
‘why… … ?’
The sword hasn’t pierced my chest yet, but it just literally hasn’t pierced ‘yet’.
The blade of the sword came right up to my heart.
It wouldn’t take even 0.1 second for a sword to pierce my heart.
‘Why does Stella want me… … ?’
Is it because death is right around the corner?
everything seems slow
As I watched the sword approaching to pierce my heart little by little, I thought.
‘betrayal? no. Stella couldn’t betray me… … .’
There was nothing I could do but think.
In this situation, at this timing, there is no way to avoid Stella’s sword.
If I was in good condition, I could have reacted somehow, but now my condition is the worst.
Now, both body and mana are rags. response was impossible.
Woowook-!
The feeling of the sword cutting through my skin is very vivid.
The sword pierced my skin and began digging into my muscles.
‘perishing… … .’
That’s when the word death filled my head like that.
Whoa-!
Something unexpected happened.
‘… … Sword skill?’
Slow-!
In the vertical direction of Stella’s stabbing sword, another sword technique appeared.
‘Did I prepare another sword path in case I evade?’
With one slash, it makes two swords.
It would be an impossible miracle for most swordsmen, but it would be possible for Stella.
The second sword attack that just occurred was the second attack prepared to kill me more surely.
I thought so.
‘no. no!’
At that time, I felt the ‘will’ contained in the sword skill.
I don’t know why, but I just knew.
‘This second attack is not aimed at me.’
The second created sword energy is not emitting life at me.
Far from living, they are showing a favorable side to me.
‘This… … .’
This sword is not the follow-up blow prepared by Stella in her arms to kill me.
‘support!’
That was when I screamed inwardly.
Kaaaaaaaang-!
The sound of metal colliding with metal resounded loudly.
Caang!
Then came the sound of iron being cut.
The second flying blade cut through Stella’s sword.
Slow-!
And then, the third swordsman flew in and cut both of Stella’s hands in my arms.
“dare… … .”
Then, a voice was heard.
The voice that should be heard in my arms is heard from far away on the other side.
“I dare to use my face… … !”
Tuck, Tuck.
someone is coming
I slowly turned my gaze towards it.
“I can’t forgive… … .”
Stella was walking.
With the same face as Stella’s in my arms, she gritted her teeth and trudged towards us.
“Something fake!”
The aura around her was so hideous that it was like seeing a demon.
I couldn’t be more angry than this.
From facial expressions to gestures to auras.
Stella’s whole body was screaming like that.
“Dare, dare! Hurt Ha Yul?”
He came right in front of me, grabbed Stella’s hair, who was still smiling as she was cradled in my arms, and pulled.
And just like that, I hit my head on the floor.
“you… … You will not die in peace.”
As if gnawing off the cross-section of a severed arm, he swung his sword once more.
As if cutting ham, slice your arm thinly.
“hmm. because i am you I know how you feel.”
Stella, pinned to the floor, said with a sneer.
“Don’t work on useless things. I don’t feel any pain That’s how it is.”
As if it was fun, as if it was regrettable, he smiled and laughed.
“Ah, sorry.”
Looking up at me in that state.
“I barely managed to break through that hard guard. In the end, help comes from somewhere else.”
I look up and sigh.
“I’m sorry. What is the point of breaking the barrier at that timing?”
Then he smiles lightly, as if mocking himself.
“No. It’s a barrier, so of course it disappears after defeating the stage boss.”
“Noisy. Shut your mouth.”
As if Stella was angry, she applied even more force to the hand holding the other Stella’s head on the floor.
The fake Stella’s face was half embedded in the ground.
“then… … . Does that mean that sending you to the stage boss was a problem after all? So is it my mistake? what. Aren’t you going to regret it?”
Laugh out loud at that.
“Ah, but I’m sorry, I’m sorry. If it’s the boss’ magic nullification, I thought I could easily deal with you. There must be a way to pierce it.”
I say sorry, but I couldn’t find the feeling of regret.
“And again… … . if it wasn’t for you I could have handled it all. Why is it that the attackers who came for the first time are heretics like you? Even if you didn’t have a special artificial intelligence or something. I could have broken them all apart. I’m really really sorry.”
Rather than sad, it is a very happy expression.
“still. well, it was fun I tried it for the first time. Human memories are pretty tasty. Bitter yet sweet. Something sour.”
Licking your lips in that state.
“It was a delicacy. I want to try it again if I get a chance. Especially Stella Binoche. Your memory was the best. Can you give me one more taste?”
“… … Do you think you will?”
“Well, I won’t.”
After saying that, the body slowly began to dissipate.
“Oh yeah. Stella Binoche. a moment ago. Anything else I said to you? that. Keep it in mind. As someone who absorbed your memories, this is the last advice I can give you.”
“… … Noisy.”
As if there was no reason to further compose the body.
It is the destruction of one’s own body by one’s own will.
That’s how the fake Stella vanished in vain.
“really… … .”
The real Stella frowned at the sight.
“Really annoying… … . On the fake subject… … . With a look that knows everything… … .”
From one to ten, everything looked like an annoyance.
