The giantess Fleur kicked Kai who was still on the ground.
The red-haired knight's chest was shot through by Fleur's flaming magic spear, and he died.
...Or, no.
The red-haired knight climbed up with difficulty, but bit by bit.
"Hey, beautiful, beautiful..." He said feebly, his chest was penetrated, but new tissue slowly grew. Even Kai himself didn't believe that he could have such a beautiful girl.
The powerful regeneration ability is probably due to the salamander's tail temporarily bringing an additional strengthening effect to his body.
It just saved my life.
"This is...the second blow." He whispered, his throat seemed to have been burned by fire, dry and hoarse, "To withstand...one more blow, this...bet."
.....The game is about to end...Come on, beauty, use your strongest weapon to attack."
Fleur whispered: "If I use the flaming magic sword, you will really die."
"It wouldn't be bad if... I could die in the hands of a beautiful... person like you -----" Kai said vaguely with blood on the corner of his mouth. His hands used their last strength to support the ground.
, in order not to let yourself fall.
"I really don't understand. What makes you so persistent..." Fleur said to herself.
"...Although that is my unrelated brother..." Kai muttered in a low voice, his voice was almost inaudible, "But...I want it more than anyone else."
Protect him. It was his father who saved my life and brought back my lost soul. My life is used to repay this debt."
The giantess Fleur was silent, she raised the flaming magic sword.
"Although he is a guy who gets angry easily, has a vicious mouth, is short and thin, and has a stupid look on his face..." Kai continued to mutter, "But I can't leave such a brother alone -----
-＂
He climbed up, opened his arms, as if to welcome death, and looked at Fleur with calm eyes: "Because, he is my relative."
"Let's do it. No matter what, I know Arthur will be saved. That's enough."
The giantess raised her sword and stabbed the red-haired knight. The purple flame burning silently on the flame demon sword was so ruthless and cold. It was about to make a hole in Kai's heart, and all the people within the scope of the flame's influence would be
It is burned to ashes, causing collapse at the cellular level.
------Death will be irreversible.
However, what kept Fleur hesitating was the [truth] in Kai's eyes. She couldn't see any lies in his words.
The tip of the sword is about to reach Kai's chest. No matter how eloquent and cunning a liar is, he should speak out his defense at this time in order to survive.
Kai still said nothing, not even the slightest intention to defend himself. His burgundy eyes were as clear as water. Those were the eyes of [the martyrdom].
He is ready to sacrifice.
Just for others.
For a false family. A younger brother who is not even related by blood.
Is it really possible for humans to go to such lengths for others?!
The tip of the sword penetrated half an inch, and a large piece of flesh was immediately burned off Kai's chest. If it penetrated another half inch, Kai would definitely die.
He has endured great pain now, right!? Who can endure the severe pain of having his skin burned to ashes by hundreds of millions of degrees of flames, and still remain indifferent!?
This man, he is not normal. Fleur came to this conclusion in her heart.
For the sake of others, his body and mind were in an almost crazy state. He no longer lived for himself, but to repay the debt of favor he owed.
For [mission].
She saw her soul in his eyes.
She is essentially the same as him, a soul bound by a mission.
Only then did Fleur realize that what she had done to Kai before was not pity. She just saw her own shadow in him, an unfree soul. And she vaguely hoped that this unfree soul could be reunited.
Be free.
She reflected her longing for freedom on him. She longed to see him succeed. She longed to see him no longer bound.
------This is the reason why she never killed him.
This man is her shadow, her pain, and the only reference in the future that she wants to overcome. Killing him is equivalent to killing her own hope and continuing to fight to protect the magic sword.
It will stay in the volcanic underground palace for tens of millions more years, until the end of time.
Living, living only for a boring mission, not even having freedom------
------That is, how unbearable!
Just a tenth of an inch before the flaming demon sword pierced Kai's heart, the giantess dropped the sword.
The purple flames on the Fiery Demonic Sword disappeared instantly, turning into a piece of black iron that was lightless and heatless, and fell to the ground.
"...If you win, you can use the sword------"
Before Fleur could finish speaking, Kai hugged the giantess and gave her a deep kiss without waiting for her to struggle.
"Hmm!" Fleur wanted to struggle, but she felt Kai's disappearing life. She could easily break away, but it would extinguish the knight's last flame of life.
Lips touch lips, heat is transmitted from one body to the other.
(You are really mean.)
(Obviously, he is just a weak human being. He will break if touched.)
(Why can you use your own weakness to threaten others?)
Fleur knew it very well, but she didn't want to admit it.
Kai possesses true strength. It is by no means physical strength, or strength in combat effectiveness.
That is, the power of [soul].
A soul that is bound by responsibility and becomes extremely powerful and indestructible.
In this soul wrestling, she completely lost to Kai. It was precisely because she didn't want to lose to herself that she chose to lose to him.
She was doomed from the start.
------Kay didn't understand Fleur after all, but he succeeded in making her understand him.
After the kiss, the red-haired knight's face still had the afterglow of the kiss. He looked at the giantess affectionately and whispered: "Beauty. After all this is over, we will sink the flaming magic sword into the deepest part of the earth.
, a place that no one can find or reach. Then, let’s get married. I will only be good to you in my life, and I will only love you as a woman------I will do what I say."
Fleur shed tears. She couldn't stop herself from crying, and hot tears poured down her rosy face.
"Who promised to marry you, you cockroach man..." she whispered shyly.
She cursed and resisted, but she hugged Kai tighter, threw the red-haired knight to the ground, and continued their kiss.
Ten minutes later, after recharging the portal, Palamedes and others hurried over and saw Kai dying on the ground.
The mythical artifact capable of destroying heaven and earth, the flaming demon sword Revadin - was placed beside the red-haired knight quietly and unremarkably, as if it was a matter of course.
