Julius attacked the witch cultists with his sword, not giving them a chance to attack Subaru. Not only that, one of the cultists who fled to Subaru tragically stepped into the wave of demonic hands, and his body was torn apart.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!? Killing each other? Not distinguishing between friend and foe? Isn't this a model of a hopeless bad guy!?"
"Gu... Ga, ah...! You really dare, you really dare, you really dare, you really dare, you really dare! Take my beloved believer!"
"It's obvious that you got him involved yourself, don't yell at me! Your vision is too narrow! Are you "lazy"!?"
Raising his middle finger, Subaru adapted the classic line "Sloth" and returned it to the other party.
"I don't always have a long memory..."
The figure flashed in the sky above the woman, and the long sword cut the woman's back neck from left to right, and blood spattered out instantly.
In an instant, the moving shadow turned into a demonic hand and drew back
"Attack nice!"
"Be silent for now, lazy..."
The figure that appeared in front of him, the long sword against his neck, the corners of the dying female madman's mouth twisted, the blood rushing to her throat flowed out from the corners of her mouth, the female madman's blood-stained face showed a smile before she died.
Seeing her expression, Subaru felt a bit of chill
"Now, just...let you take it...must, definitely..."
"Love will be taken back."
Finally, after clearly leaving these words, the woman's head rose into the sky, and the signs of life completely disappeared. This was unquestionable death, an irreversible end.
"The remaining "Sloth", the Sin Archbishop's finger... is probably only one!"
"As long as we deal with that guy, and then kill all the witch cultists, we will win——!" Subaru said
At the other end of the forest, black arms rose again in the air, heading toward the village, which was very far away.
"——!? Damn it! Did you show up so soon!!"
Gritting his teeth, Subaru stared at the sky and roared at the scene in front of him.
"Subaru, come up!"
I don't know when Yuexing rode on the earth dragon, looking in the direction of the village and frowning
…
The earth dragon's speed continued to increase, flying across the slope, through the forest, and rushed towards the village that was currently being ravaged.
In the village where the traces of destruction further expanded, human bodies lying on the ground could be seen everywhere, flames leaped, and people's cries mingled. In this world filled with the sound of swords clashing, Subaru immediately discovered the madman's figure.
The fifth madman is a bald, thin middle-aged man. He is scratching his face full of blood and laughing wildly.
When their eyes met, they also realized the fact that they were enemies rather than friends. However, the most critical first attack opportunity fell into his hands.
“Woohoo—the brain is trembling, trembling, trembling—!”
The countless demonic hands that were raised covered the sky and the sun, and then fell down with crazy roars. This blow turned into a waterfall of death and rolled over the village, smashing everything to pieces.
Subaru's roar, determined to stop him, turned into a helpless scream.
The madman's arrogant behavior is about to turn the village into a living hell - at this moment
"——That's it, evil party"
"We cannot allow this devastated situation to continue - it's over now."
The light blue light, which is more vivid than the countless black hands moving around, covers the entire sky with absolute zero.
The brilliant light blue light flickers, dyeing the Alam Village red with blood and flames into another color.
Finely broken ice cubes appeared in the cold air, and the diffusely reflected light formed a phantom-like beauty. The beauty of the crystallization phenomenon completely made the tragic scene before us completely lose its sense of reality.
"We cannot allow this devastated situation to continue - it's over now."
Then, in this dreamlike scenery, a clear and sweet sound came into my ears
A sound like a silver bell spread across the battlefield, and everyone was blinded by the sudden appearance of the girl.
Her long silver hair is flying in the gentle wind, her deep purple eyes contain a strong will, and she is stunningly beautiful. Even if you only look at her appearance, her existence is dazzling enough.
But at this moment, she was able to attract everyone's attention, not because of her appearance.
——But because of her majesty that just stood there and seemed to dominate everything
The sounds of metal colliding, roars, screams, and even the flames burning the house fell silent as if holding their breath.
Facing such a world, the silver-haired girl - Emilia, calmly stared at the enemy
"Emilia..." Subaru's mood was a little complicated.
The area around the mansion turned into a battlefield, and villagers came to the mansion to take refuge one after another. When someone was fighting to protect them, she couldn't hide at home.
Emilia's eyes revealed sadness and fighting spirit as she faced off against the witch cultists who used this place as a battlefield.
"Please stand down, the evil party has actually done such an outrageous thing... I will not forgive you."
"Wow, what a..."
After identifying the madman standing in the square as her enemy, Emilia cast cold words at her opponent. However, the madman's blood-stained face showed surprise, joy, and a sneer instead of being shaken.
"Woohoo, ah! What a good time! What auspicious day! What a fate! There is such a perfect container! It is exactly the same! It can be said that it is the original body! It can be concluded that even if the trial is repeated countless times, there will never be a second time like this.
What a chance...!"
The passionate "Sloth" burst into tears. In front of the madman's unexpected tears, Emilia frowned and showed a confused expression.
"Oh, oh, witch...my beloved, beacon...!"
However, it seemed that even this behavior was linked to gratitude. The madman walked forward with empty steps. He took the initiative to shorten the distance between him and Emilia. In the face of the countdown to destruction, Emilia stretched out her palm to him.
"Don't move! It won't be a warning next time."
Emilia stretched out her palm and declared this to the madman who was trying to get closer. However, the madman turned a deaf ear to her dissuasion and continued to shorten the distance step by step——
"This time! Next time! I will definitely treat you, I will definitely treat you..."
"—I already told you, don't move."
As she said, the second time was no longer a warning. She was so ruthless that she turned the ultimatum into action.
Lights flew, cold air hit, and the burst of magic froze the moisture in the air, resulting in four sharp ice spears, shot out instantly
The extremely cold frost has no mercy, and a blow that literally takes away a life penetrates the target and dyes it white with frost, turning the target and his soul into an ice sculpture, but——
"There is no hesitation, no mercy, no mercy...it is really, really, really, diligent judgment!"
"...Isn't it your companion?"
Next to the witch cultist who stood up to protect herself and turned into an ice sculpture, the madman sneered leisurely. Emilia couldn't understand his actions and wrinkled her forehead.
When the madman heard her question, he tilted his head to ninety degrees, stretched out his demonic hand to the frozen subordinate, and beat him to pieces.
"It's a believer! It's also my finger! However, all of this has no meaning in front of you, in front of the container! Even I am the same! Now, now, now now now now now now now now now
Now! The reason why I have a will, the reason why I exist! It’s all for you!”
"For you, for you, for you... But, just like this is not enough."
Emilia couldn't help but be speechless in the face of his madness. The madman's eyes widened and he raised his bloody finger. The almost shattered finger pointed at Emilia - to be precise, it was Emilia's
left shoulder
On those slender shoulders, the elf kitten was leaning on the silver hair. For that existence, "Sloth" showed hatred
"Elves, elves, elves! With that small body, with that attitude that doesn't know justice or love! I don't know how serious the sin of relying on the container is! Ignorance is a sin! What atrocities this is!"
"Sloth" showed too strong disgust and indignation towards the existence of the elf, Parker. However, Parker, whose name was called, also looked at the madman who was hostile to him with cold eyes.
This is an emotion that is unimaginable in the usually gentle and laid-back man - an emotion that is condensed with murderous intent.
"What a coincidence. Being with this child is the reason for my existence. I don't need to ask anyone for permission, and I don't plan to ask for permission. You are the one, making me very unpleasant."
In a sense, both parties treat everyone equally, but at this moment, they show clear hatred for each other. The madman is full of resentment towards Parker, and Parker is full of disdain for the madman.
"Wait a minute, this kind of thing..."
"It's Subaru who's waiting for me. Okay, squat down."
Subaru was about to intervene before the war started, but his sleeve was pulled by someone. Subaru looked over in surprise and found that the person pulling his sleeve was Phyllis who had appeared out of nowhere. Yuexing stood aside calmly.
"Keep absolutely quiet, that's an order, meow."
"Is this the time to say this! Let Emilia fight that guy..."
"It's my decision and little Ram's decision to call Lady Emilia here - show some trust."
Subaru, who was stopped when he was anxious, frowned when he heard Phyllis's words. Seeing Subaru's confused face that seemed to ask "What do you want to say?" Phyllis closed one eye and said
"The people you want to protect are not just people who just hide behind."
