263 261. The end of the millennium.txt




 Thus began the extra stage in Viisia.
 The actors in that battle were Sith and I - and Yotaki in my arms.

 It's a battle between the 'Apostles' born to protect this world and the 'Gentiles' who were called to protect this world.

'My Yotaki! Give me back Yangtaki, I want--!

 Inside the royal capital of Viasia, the cornered Sith shouts out.
 Shining magic power erupts from his back, showing the pressure worthy of the 59th level he has raised to the limit.

 I stand up to it head on.

''It's useless, Sith. No matter how much magic power you have, everything freezes over. -- "Magic, "Dimensional Winter (Die Winter)

 The magic I've developed will stall the eruption of Sith magic power.
 There's no need to turn the entire world into winter, as I did earlier. With the assistance of my dimensional magic, only the Sith's magic and magic will be frozen precisely.

 The Sith was upset at the excessive slowness of its construction as it tried to transform its arm into a sword of light.

''......! With the status of that ally, why am I losing out now! Because of these wards? What's wrong with the magic between the two of them? Or is there another magic--!

 He wouldn't even be satisfied with the finished Sword of Light's work.
 There must be a deeper reason for this failure, and the Sith tries to gather information about the surroundings. However, he quickly realized that the only cause was my 《Dimensional Winter (Di Winter)》, and his face contorted.

 The distorted face is dyed with anger.
 This was because it was nothing more than a purely defeated clash of magical power with me.

''Mi, I won't admit it! This is so unreasonable, I won't accept it!

 The Sith shouted again, increasing the momentum of the spew of magic power.
 White particles like a fountain diffuse from his back. It looks like a propulsion jet (vernier), and depending on how you look at it, it could be an angel's wings.
 The golden sand hair, white beauty, and white wings - indeed, the Sith could only be described as an apostle of heaven, but it continued to show an abomination that did not match its divine appearance.

It's not a good idea to have a newborn baby. Amplified by the "Overcaptive Protection" skill! With this, by my calculations, I have more than ten times the magic power of my ally--!
It's useless.

 A Sith who piled up all the strengthening magic it could hold rushed at me.
 The magic was so dense that rivers of stardust formed in its wake, but the power of my Dimensional Winter (Dee Winter) kicked it off. Halfway down the path of the rush, the Sith stalled and swung its right arm dully in front of me.

 The cutting edge of the sword of light that changed its arm was sharp.
 Anything that touched the shining magic of the sword would be ripped and cut off.
 But no matter how sharp the sword was, it was moving too slowly.

 I leisurely ducked the sword of light.

 Next, the Sith turned his left leg into the sword of light and released a kick, but on the contrary, the sword slashed back at his thigh.

 The fight was one-sided due to his grasp of space and the enemy's slowing down.
 Maybe it's because it's a magic that I made for myself, but the security of this magic 《Dimensional Winter (Di Winter)》 is extraordinary. As long as I have this, I feel like I can fight any enemy.

''Why ......? Why? I'm fighting with ten times more magic than I am!

 Realizing the disadvantage of the battle, the Sith flap their wings and retreat significantly.

 It's the same as the one you're looking for.
 Even though we just saw magic that cannot be measured numerically a moment ago, Sis still continues to fight within the common sense 'rules'. Then me and Yotaki's resonance magic will never be broken.

''Di, Diablo-chan! Do something!

 Even though he didn't understand the logic, he thought he would lose if he didn't. Sith called out the name of the body's original master and then relaxed from his body with a hump.
 And the next moment he looked up - there was Dia.

 With a pained expression, tearful, she reaches out towards Yotaki in my arms and releases her magic as it is.

''Ah, ah, ah, ......? What ......? Why, Christ lend ...... ki, Christ lend ...... me back! --Flame Arrow!

 Seeing me embracing Yangtaki, Dia's face contorts and builds magic.
 With a flash, the magic power flashed and an arrow of fire was released that seemed to draw a white line.
 I don't avoid it. I try to nullify it with only the attenuation from the cooling of the 《Dimensional Winter (Di Winter)》.

 The amount of heat that couldn't be called an arrow of fire due to its complete attenuation lightly caressed my cheek.
 It's a nostalgic magic.
 In the past, that magic had saved me many times.
 I say a few words to Dia as I remember the old days.

...... No, Dia. Christ is me.
'Oh, ahhh, Christ ......! Ahhhh ......!

 Dia doesn't listen to my words, but seeks Yotaki with an anxious expression.

 In front of her, the words I would say to her have already been decided.

 All along, Dia has been troubled.
 It's been ever since we first met.

 She's been carrying her worries alone for a long time, and no one noticed her until the end.
 And then, like Ayd and Titi, her heart broke and she had no choice but to hang on to the fake.

 --I can understand how she feels now.

 Something I learned a year ago from Hailey and Palinkron. What she learned in her fight with Titi and Nosfi. Most of all, what she saw from Ayd's back now.
 Those many experiences make the words come together.

'Dear ....... I am me. You can call me Uzumi, Christ, or whatever you want, but don't forget that I am me. I'm properly here .......

 I'll introduce myself clearly so that you don't confuse me with Yotaki.
 I wanted to start over here first.

'Dia is also Dia. What that Sith guy did has nothing to do with her. There is not a single thing that he was responsible for a thousand years ago. Of course not, ......?

 Next, he tells them clearly that he's not the same person as the Sith of a thousand years ago, so that Dia won't make a mistake in what he's carrying.

 But it's still not enough.
 Dia's eyes are still focused on Yotaki, not me.

 Naturally.
 There will still be burdens that bind Deere. There is more than enough to crush.
 Part of that burden is carried by me, the other part is carried by me.
 That's why she was so desperate and disappeared from my sight a year ago.

 So what I have to do now - it should be the same thing as Aide.
 I've been given back what I've forced on you in the past, one by one, and from now on, we have to get over this together. That's why I call out my name over and over again--

...... Dear. Do you still remember the day we first met? ...... I was a coward that day. I was the kind of guy that makes me sick just remembering it. So let me just say one thing again. Just let me say one thing again. Please, let me hear it again--!

 I shout, following Ayde's lead.

 It's not all that bad, but it was definitely a misbuttoned - the first mistake.
 I was the one who wanted to be a part of that beginning day, I was the one who wanted to be a part of Dia, and I cowardly let Dia invite me to join her. I had cowardly ingratiated myself with her and put the blame for the battle in the labyrinth on Dia.

'Dear, come with me to the labyrinth: ......! Come with me again! It's not that Dia wants to be with me! I was the one who wanted to be with Dear that day! So this time, I'm going to take Dia's hand! I'll take your hand! Let's get back to the guys together!

 I am the one who wishes to have Dia.
 Hearing his voice, Dia heard the voice, and her body shook with a jolt.

'Ka, Kanami ......? Oh, I'm ......, no, 'I' is ......--

 What is beyond her eyes is not only Yotaki's body - but also my face as I hold it in my arms.
 While comparing Yotaki and me, her expression gradually changed.

 The expression of anguish seems to have softened a little - really only a little - but the expression of anguish has eased.
 Furthermore, he showed an expression as if he remembered something.
 I certainly reached for it. I felt like that, and I tried to take another step forward.

 However, it is blocked by the Sith. 

''--chief!

 She retreats backwards, tongue-tied.
 The Sith must have forcefully snatched his consciousness away from Dia. She gives Dia a look she doesn't have and swears, dripping cold sweat.

'It sucks ....... I hate that part of my allies ....... I hate the way you go around tricking girls like that and then hurting them!

 He points to his own body, showing his willingness to never take my hand.
 I will criticize me by showing my body, which has been taken away by others, even its consciousness ...... of my lost right arm and left leg.

'What, I want to be with you, Diablo, ......! This arm was hit by a Tida. This one on my torso was done to me by Palinkulon Legacey. This leg was done to me by my best friend, Maria. And this wound on my thigh was given to me by you, my love.
Yeah, I know. Yeah, I know all that. I know that, and that's what I'm saying.

 But I kick it off calmly.
 That level of criticism is one of the warmest I've ever expected - or even foreseen.
 On the contrary, I will criticize the Sith.

'You may be an apostle like Legacy, but you're second-rate.
I'm a second-rate--?

 That wild rebuttal was unexpected, and the Sith gives him the most indignant look of the day. Everything else may be forgiven, but the pride of being an apostle seems to be the only thing that matters.

'Palinclone Legacy was even more awesome than that. That guy held me hostage and threatened me with everything - Aikawa Uzumi, the very existence of Aikawa Uzumi, as a shield. My sister's happiness, the bond between my friends, the meaning of my life - everything. And what about you, on the other hand? All you've done is take one of your friends hostage, you've gained a little power, you've become proud. I'm sure you'll be able to do whatever you want with it. And this is the result.
You, you, ally--!

 The Sith was furious and rushed forward, swinging the sword in his right arm.
 That Palinclone would never take this level of provocation. Rather, he would surely laugh at this poorly imitated monkey provocation and provoke back with more provocation.

 Avoiding the Sith's messy sword, I hook my foot and let it roll over.
 Then, she stops moving, pointing the tip of her sword at the tip of Sith's nose as she tries to get up quickly. When she can't move, she glares at me with a snarl.

''d*mn ......! You're going to abandon little Diablo and say you're going to kill me: ......?
I'm not going to leave you behind. It's just--I'd cut off your remaining limbs if I had to, just to make you incapacitated.

 There are a lot of limitations due to the fact that her body is being taken over. I can't kill Dia's body - but I don't have any doubts about anything else.

'Teh, limbs ......? What do you think of Dear's body, what do you think of life ......! My allies really think it doesn't matter if you don't have at least a limb: ......!

 The cold statement surprises the Sith and makes me question my sanity.
 I shake my head at that and raise my voice.

'-What do you think about that at least: ......! Dia had always dreamed of being a swordsman. ...... That one arm, that one leg, was the very soul of that guy! Tada, but still! I'm not going to let anything happen to you, and I'm not going to let anything happen to her! If you don't free me from your spell, I won't even begin to live Dia's life!

 I'm not going to step on two feet and never again be able to get it back. He confronts the apostle with that resolve.
 The Sith's eyes widen when he sees that determination.

'...... Ah, you are really ......, are you really an ally?'
Yeah, I'm me. It's Aikawa Uzumi. Aikawa Uzumi will not give up again! I'm so lost and distressed, I won't even stop! --that's what I've decided!

 I'm more powerful than the Sith now. If that's the case, the only thing left for me to lose is my mental retardation.

 That's why I can't afford to lose.
 Even if all of me is lost, even if I am no longer Aikawa Uzumi, even if I lose the meaning of my life - no matter what, I can't let my mental weakness be the cause of my defeat anymore!

'Wow, even if you can't get me to act! How are you going to separate me from little Diablo! We're fully integrated, so it's not so easy--

 The Sith must have realized that I would not retreat.
 I'll try to break the status quo in another way.

'You really don't think I can? I know I can do it.

 I reply to that with the magic 《Distance Mute》 that extracts the soul.
 The right arm holding the sword glows purple, indicating that I can eliminate only Sith at any time.

''Ah, ah, ah ....... S-, that's not such ...... then, it's as if my ally is ......--

 Looking at me, the Sith mutters in dismay.
 For a moment, she looks as if she's found something important - her expression immediately turns angry and she starts screaming like a child.

''--Why? Why won't my allies recognize me! I hate it! I hate our allies! I don't need an ally who doesn't recognize me! Die! Die, Aikawa Uzumi!

 The cornered Sith is frenzied and tries to stand up, regardless of the sword in front of him.
 Anticipating that counterattack, I deploy the greatest magic I had prepared in advance.

''-- Resonance Magic [Die Over Winter in the Overcrowded Dimension (Dee Over Winter)]

 The Sith's movements slowed down as it tried to stand up after receiving the resonance magic from the two 'The One Who Steals the Reason'.
 I threw my sword to the ground and slowly inserted the Distance Mute into the Sith's chest.

 It was easy to insert my arm into that gaping body.

 The Sith moaned softly and opened his eyes.
 My victory has been decided.

''Goodbye, Apostle Sith.......
"--I lost ......? So easily ......? What? Why? I just wanted to make the world at peace - and make everyone happy. ......--
The 'everyone' you speak of is ....... It must be just you and your Lord and two people ....... That's what it sounds like to me. That's why I can't recognize you .......

 The Sith look like it's the end of the world as they insert their arms into his chest and hold his soul, unable to move.
 I guess he still can't accept reality.
 He continues to mumble and mutter while shaking his head in a small way.

'...... Why? With the yotaki I've prepared, and the perfect body I've got, Diablo-chan? Losing to the prepared ally of the Diprakra guy? I was beaten and defeated and defeated and defeated by Legacy and by DiPlacula - and maybe I was the weakest ......? Was I the worst offender: ......? Oh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh--!

 I scream.
 My body almost stops for a moment as I hear that voice up close, but I relentlessly go to grab the soul of the Sith. All the while, the Sith continues to scream.

'Legacy--! Deeprakraaah--! I won't allow it! Never forgive, never forgive, never forgive! Why are you all here! I don't care about you guys--!

 I pull my hand out.
 Without hurting any of Dea's body, I extracted only what wasn't Dea as a magic stone.

 Naturally, the Sith's decapitated cry echoes through the world.

I won't allow it! I'll never forgive you! I won't allow it, ka--ra--, ----

 In the middle of the process, it was cut off with a plop.
 It was the moment when the Sith lost their bodies and their right to live in this world disappeared.
 At the same time, Dia's body almost collapsed into the grassland.

 I hold her with my hand holding the magic stone and gently lay her down on the grassland.
 And immediately I carefully freeze the white magic stone in my hand with Yotaki's freezing magic and put the frozen magic stone into my 'possessions'. With this, she won't wake up again forever.

''It's done ....... Finally .......

 Confirming the end of the Apostle Sith, I look up at the sky.
 As I lay my sister, Aikawa Yotaki, next to Dia in her arms, I take a breath of emotion.

 Since I came to this other world, what I've been chasing since I came to this other world is here. Never again will there be a night where I can't sleep because of the frustration. There will be no more memories of the original world and no more heart-rending thoughts. At last, I have arrived.

 I pick up the treasured sword Lowen that I threw on the ground and put it back in its sheath at my waist, apologizing for my messy handling.

 His mouth naturally loosens.
 If he looked closely, he had the feeling that both the sleeping Youtaki and Dia were smiling as well.

 It's not all settled yet, but tears are about to spill out of my eyes.
 Then he turns his moist eyes in another direction instead of the two who have regained them.

 Not far away, Titty and Ayde were sitting with their shoulders together, sitting against a familiar 'White Cherry Blossom' (Pieris Aisia) tree.
 This one, too, was smiling gently, just like Yotaki and Dea - and
