Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 716

I feel like the anger that had risen to the top of my head has finally settled in my heart after wandering around without finding a way out.

So that’s why he was talking nonsense like it shouldn’t exist. As expected, he just went through an unknown number of regressions to accumulate information, not to foresee the future.

As the blood drains from my limbs and my heart pounds, I feel the spirits fighting against him getting weaker and weaker.

If that guy was the only attacker, I would have tried my best to stop him, but even I, who was searching, didn’t search the entire city, so in a situation where I couldn’t give a definitive answer, Serta, who had to protect the key figure, couldn’t give it his all. In a way, it seemed like the laughter bell’s guess that I might not have high expectations had come true.

Of course, it’s not his fault at all. What we assumed was a master-level being, not a piece of the Demon King.

“Yeah, it’s a fragment.”

He is not the Demon King himself. There is no one here to be angry with. He is just watching from the Demon King’s castle far away, manipulating the puppets in an unknown way.

The power he showed was so great that I hesitated for a moment, but there was no way the Demon King himself would be standing here.

If there was an over-technology that could instantly possess a full-power demon lord just by eating something, it would have been used long ago and turned the world upside down. Even if the principle is unknown, it is a reasonable guess that it is close to remote control using the power of an evil god.

It was very bitter to have to accept the reality that a mere fragment exerted such power to make that conjecture reasonable, but there was no choice. If these were problems that could be solved by denying reality or being stubborn, wouldn’t that have happened a long time ago? Isn’t that my life?

I was able to look at the situation much more calmly than before, perhaps because I was feeling better as I recalled the self-deprecating joke and drew up my magic power again.

Since there is a condition that it activates by eating, it cannot be recovered. Since he was a skilled person who was able to break through the iron-clad security and enter the inner castle, it is clear that the person who ate it was also an extraordinary skilled person.

What is the intention of making such a talented person into a puppet by using him as a scapegoat?

Is there a way to turn them back? If so, they would have used the same method on the lower-level eroders to make them retrievable troops.

Because he’s a discarded piece? No matter how strong he is, he’s using the Master as a discarded piece? It’s not an entirely impossible story, but if that’s the case, it becomes important to know what he was trying to gain by using someone classified as a Master as a discarded piece.

“······Fuck, there’s too many·”

The king of the enemy country, the next emperor, the representative of the allied forces, a huge force, a saint, a warrior, a god, a space swordsman, etc.

There were plenty of reasons for him to come.

“Serta! We will attack. As soon as you defeat the spirits, protect the injured and evacuate the nearby residents!”

Then there is one thing I have to do:

All of these reasons are to keep him as far away from the dense inner self as possible.

“And later, after the meeting is over, please tell the saintess that I am sorry but I did it one more time.”

[yes?]

“If I tell you so, you will understand.”

Fuck, I really wasn’t going to do it again.

[Master, are you really going to do it?]

“Sadly, your master has no way of stopping that bastard now.”

As soon as I absorbed the estero, I realized that the body was nothing more than an outlet for the evil spirit energy that the Demon King held.

The influence of the evil spirit that had settled behind it was an area that no matter how good Este’s performance was, it could not dare to approach.

Even the erosion creatures lack reason and could be solved by simply absorbing the evil spirit’s energy, but that one has reason and its energy is endless, so this is better than saving it for nothing and creating a situation where it ends up in shit.

[But what if I still can’t stop it?]

“Don’t worry about that. It won’t last long.”

I was able to say this confidently because I had talked to Ephaga and welcomed the World Tree.

“It’s not easy to embody divinity.”

I let out a burst of divine power, hoping that I could hold out at least until the bastard’s duration ended.

◈

Spirits are annoying

It is subtle to say that it is strong, but since it is a being that resides in reality with one foot in another dimension, there is no way to definitely destroy it.

If you force it, it’s not impossible, but… it’s not cost-effective. Since the Demon King’s true self wasn’t even here, you had to put aside your reluctance and focus on eliminating him as efficiently as possible.

Thanks to his careful attention, the Demon King was able to anticipate and prepare for the signs of divine power suddenly bursting out from behind the waves made of dirt.

Are you planning to strike with the same ignorant blow as before? I don’t know how he did it, but I think it’s definitely very reckless. What appeared in front of the Demon King who was preparing was not a pillar of pure white light, but a person.

-Bang!

It was only a split second, but Eldmia jumped out, making a large hole in the overflowing dirt, and without any technique or anything, she charged and crashed, sending the Demon King flying backwards with a heavy sound.

The face of the Demon King, who had succeeded in retrieving it from his memory, was distorted.

[That again···!]

It was the power that almost drove Soha Shinore to death.

How much power had to be wasted to save Soha Shinore from the one who used that power? Noi, who had been listening to the story while receiving the bead containing the spirit of the evil god, could not have guessed, but the example the Demon King gave at the time was an experience based on memories from that time.

It was an exercise of power that was possible because Soha, who was born with the qualities of a warrior and could even withstand the energy of an evil spirit, was the medium, but all he could do was deflect the sword once. At the time, I thought it was because of some other external force, but after seeing it with my own eyes, I could tell that it wasn’t.

It’s just that guy that’s the problem.

His divinity hinders his power.

Perhaps the fact that he destroyed his own plans as soon as he touched them was also related to that power. He had originally borrowed Noi’s body for the purpose of observing and preparing for abnormalities, but it seemed like it was not the time to do anything like observing or anything like that.

You have to use your hands while Noi’s body is still able to move at will.

The Demon King was trying to move his body and attack in any way he could, but this time Eldmia’s reaction was faster.

If what was shown in the first meeting was nothing more than a simple, ignorant attack without any swordsmanship or anything, what was shown this time was an extraordinary attack that added a technique that cut through magic power on top of sharp swordsmanship.

The sword swings without giving him a chance to figure out what is going on, cutting off the Demon King’s hands and feet, and the holy technique that is being used here and there repeats irregular attacks and defenses. Even in the eyes of the Demon King, who has watched many strong men, Eldmia is currently in a state that is comparable to those called Masters.

The difference between before and after reaching transcendence is that it is all about new powers that far surpass the existing physical abilities. However, the gap brought about by whether or not one recognizes this difference is beyond imagination, as some have said that it is no different from trying to use human technology even after becoming a dragon.

It was a natural story. It was like blocking an attack that could easily be blocked with one hand with two hands, so it was impossible to develop because it was just repeating the same actions within the existing techniques.

While there are such types, Eldmia is said to be ready to reach mastery at any time in terms of skills despite her young age, although she simply lacks physical prowess.

If the distance is not close, hold the pommel with only two fingers and extend your hand to cut it.

If you get too close, he boldly drops his sword and engages in close combat.

In the middle of the fight, unidentifiable projectiles fly in and when you get used to them, you immediately pull out your shield and throw it, and then throw a two-handed axe that comes flying from somewhere and smashes the Demon King’s chest.

Even though they were unable to resist properly or were resisting, the distance between them and the castle gradually grew longer. The buildings were destroyed and the desperate cries of the awakened humans were playing like music, but Eldmia did not hesitate at all and just kept pushing forward.

As if he had realized his purpose.

[Fuck·]

Not all of those attacks are effective, but apart from taking damage, the Demon King has no time.

The power of the evil spirit is trying to control the target. Noi’s body, which has been regenerated more than expected, has been eroded by more than half, while Eldmia’s attacks are becoming sharper and more vicious. If things continue this way, it is clear that the body will escape control before the goal is achieved.

Even if it is the dregs of the god, it is necessary to recover them. If you can absorb them, it is not difficult to transfer the power to your own body.

The Demon King, feeling displeased with the situation that was not going as planned and devising a plan, exploded with his inner divine power to shake off Eldmia.

Paang! A narrow-range explosion occurred with a sound like air bursting, but the aftermath was enormous despite its size. The impact was so great that Eldmia, who had raised her shield in preparation for an immediate attack, was instantly thrown 200 meters away, and the buildings and ground within the range were turned to dust.

From the Demon King’s perspective, it was quite a bit of force at the time, but it was okay so far.

Since he is a warrior, he will no longer be able to focus on himself in the future.

[This city will die because of you, Eldmia]

With a soft accusation, the demon king’s body bursts out with divine power, and as it is torn apart, something like black water flows out like a river, encroaching on the surroundings.

It was the moment when the evil spirit’s sanctuary descended on Levien.
