This blood shallow water was easy to transmit magic power to.
　It was delivered to Kanami deep in the labyrinth, making the earth tremble with vibrations.

"Since it's the 'end of the story' festival, I'd like you to hear my story at the end--

　The vibration (voice) reaches everyone on the battlefield.
　It's the same method of communication that Kanami and I used when we were running the guild together.
　If I've grown up since that day, I can turn up the volume as much as I want and make it reverberate throughout the United Kingdom through the 'magic stone line'.
　There's a slight tremor going on, but I don't mind that it's a festival today, so I continue on.

''As those of you who know me know, I was strong. It's exactly the kind of 'strongest' that children aim to be ....... But I lost a lot of things because of this too strong power.

　In the meantime, the 'blood knights' still move.
　However, their movements were clearly slowed down as they received my vibration (고) all over their bodies.

　One of the nearby ones is punched away by Sera-san, who is escorting me, and it disperses in four directions. However, a new 'blood knight' is immediately born from the distant Kounel's feet - but the speed of its generation is clearly slower than the first four bodies.

　The vibrations (hoarse) of the unchanted Vibrations were interfering with the magical construction of the Blood Shoal.
　And at my feet, the blood has begun to boil.
　However, this is simply body temperature. The blood shallows were about to evaporate just from the body temperature during 'dragonization'. The blood vapour mixed with the vapour from my body and turned into a pulsating red mist.

　The surrounding knights and 'Magic Stone Humans (Jewelculus)' gasped when they saw my figure wrapped in the red mist.

　If you look closely, you can see that many of the Jewelculus are in pain and sweating with fat. As we move as we please within the [Invisible Ice Room], it looks like it's hard to maintain the wards. Some of them have already collapsed.

　Even so, the reason why the 'Magic Stone Humans' (Jewelculus) continue to maintain their magic is probably because they believe in God. The new scripture, "'Our God who resides in the heavens, grant us divine magic,'" is being said and prayed at me as I flaunt my strength as a 'dragon man'.
　I can't help but remember the way he fights, clinging to that something.

"-I'm just like all of you here.

　When I muttered that, all of the 'Magic Stone Humans (Jewelculus)' here changed their expressions and became indignant.

　Snow Walker is a 'Dragon Man' (Dragon Newt) who is named after a great nobleman and is also a symbol of life force. It's a natural reaction for the 'Magic Stone Humans (Jewelculus)' who were forced to live a short life without being given a home or a name.

　Knowing this, I continue my story.
　It was close to the aristocratic figure I hated - I was slightly reminded of my brother-in-law Glenn's back, who was always working hard with a tired face.

''It's just like. ...... This dragon's blood has thrown me off my first step in life. I failed, and I lost my home and my family. Then I failed so many times, lost my place, lost so many people I cared about ......, and when you keep trying and trying and trying and trying and trying to be terrible, it's hard to be serious about trying, isn't it?　In the end, you lose even your freedom in life anymore. We will have to cling to what little we have left.

　As if to protect me from the stick, the knight Sera-san stood there and blew away the 'blood knights' with both arms.
　On the way there, she and I looked at each other for a moment, but she didn't seem to blame me. Rather, it's an encouraging look that tells me to say everything I want to say, if I have something to say, say it all.
　So I have no problem with Kounel's 'blood knight'.

　However, Apostle Diprakra was different.
　Seeing me as a gaping hole, who only speaks without moving, he plucks again with the fingertips of a wooden giant and starts to move it - but

'Unlike everyone else's Levanism, I was left with the Walker family. So I've been waiting for that Walker family's 'real heroes' to come along ....... Life was hard and I couldn't live like everyone else anymore, so I kept clinging, praying, and hoping that someone would come to my rescue .......
............

　When I uttered that, with a snap.
　The wooden giant stopped moving.

　Diprakra had taken refuge in the high places, but he was within talking distance all the time.
　Hence, like an apostle, he is merciful and responds to me from on high.

...... then, Snow Walker. Let us continue to pray. I invite you to join me in this Festival of the Endgame. All you have to do is pray that it will make you 'happy' and your wish will be granted.

　Although his appearance is different, he is at heart the same as the Sith.
　He believes strongly in his own righteousness, hates to lose, and is unusually talkative.
　That diplakra sincerely pities me and invites me to join him.

'Come to think of it, no one has ever heard the gospel of our God like you have. It's not too late. If you are afraid of becoming a dragon and need someone to help you, then pray to the god of Levant, and I am sure he will help you. Then he will give you a world without pain and worry. --If you wish, he can weave a future in which heroes can help you with their magic threads.

　Diprakra rightly understood the meaning of 'resembling' the 'Dragon Man (I)' said 'resembling' the 'Jewelculus'.
　Snow Walker also saw that he was worthy of Revanism, and changed the giant's hand from a plucking to an outstretched one, encouraging him to join the religion.

　However, let me refuse that hand of mercy.

'Diprakra, there are no such convenient 'heroes'. There aren't, Kanami said. The Levantine God himself is that gospel, you know.

　It was a painful memory, but I returned it.
　Head on, I would criticize the Levantine religion without mercy.

'I tried to cling to it, but Kanami taught me to go on with my life as I see fit. She also told me that it's easy to put my trust in someone, but I shouldn't be fooled by a gentle lie--
What are you talking about?　Such words, not in the Levantine scriptures!　You're the one who's trying to lie and deceive me, aren't you!

　The criticism angered Diprakula, and he refuted the criticism outright.

　It's not in the scriptures, apparently.
　But it's obvious.
　Because it was Saint Tiara who wrote that one down.
　And I'm going to utter the teachings of Kanami, who continued to resist the 'thread' of that saint Tiara, with the intention of reading the true scripture.

'It's not a lie. Other than that, Kanami also said that it's too one-sided to leave it to someone else: ......!　He didn't even like being called "hero"!　That Kanami is now called God!　I'm not a 'hero' anymore!　Once you've carried that stuff on your shoulders, you're no longer equal to anyone!　I can see that fear now!

　Of course, there will be people who can bear everyone's wishes.
　I'm sure they'll call it 'strong people'.

　But Kanami, who seems to have lost sight of even his own wishes--
　I can't believe I can be 'Lord of the World' by being vain.
　I'm not going to be able to say that I'm the one who steals the logic of the wind and the one who steals the logic of the earth.
　--I'm not going to be able to get the same thing done as the "Steal the Law of the Wind" and "Steal the Law of the Earth".

　No, it's not just those two.
　It contains the failures of all the 'Truth-Thefters'. That's why I've heard that Kanami was chosen from another world to come here.

　Diprakra, who probably knows what that means better than I do, speaks up with a trembling voice and mouths a counter argument.

'...... Wow, you know what I mean!　That God's heart, you!　No, no one can read the mind of God anymore!　Not even our own former master!

　I know what it feels like to tremble.
　Kanami's power is too powerful. Hence, Diprakra is in awe. I could sympathize with him as he is even more frightened, cowering and trembling his body - trying to cling to it.

　This person is also the same in essence as the 'Magic Stone Humans' (Jewelculus) and others.
　Rather, he is more into Revanism than anyone else.
　To that Diprakra, I repeated what Kanami had taught me.

'Still, I'm going to go and read. Because I swore to support each other as a 'partner' by my side--

　I replied and turned my head towards Diprakra, who was stationed above me.
　While I was chatting with him, my 'dragonization' progressed and I can move within the 《Invulnerable Ice Room》.

　Seeing me stalling that little bit of cowardice, Diprakra completely gives up on his recruitment and moves the giant's arm this time.
　But unlike earlier, it was a mess, not caring about the damage around it.

''Supporting each other with God!　Don't flatter yourself!　Undisciplined!　You are the one who has been smeared with the gentlest of lies!　He's a demon trying to deceive the people!　My partner, even I, ......, and even we, the apostles!　I can't do that anymore!

　Diprakra continues to wind up, dropping the giant's arms.
　Just occasionally my gaze wanders off and wanders.
　He's furious with me and is concerned about his surroundings because he believes that he is still being watched by God.

'Oh, I can't!　There's nothing you can do about it!　You're going to fail again today!　They thought they were using the Sith priestess Diah as bait, but we saw it coming!　Behold the light and magic that gush forth from this labyrinth!　If it's you, you can feel the flow (...)!　The Lord of the World has gained not only infinite magical power, but the power to change the fate of all!　He sees all of the past, present and future and continues to arrange the world by thread!　--I wish on the Lord!　Please, he said, make everyone 'happy'!
I don't want it. Because I'm not afraid of Kanami. --Because I'm not afraid of Kanami.

　Dragonization is complete.
　Both of my arms have been mutated, and I also gained blue wings.
　They are even bigger and more colorful than they were when I showed them in the fourth round of the Battle Championship in the past.
　I was even taller, but now I was taller than anyone else here.
　From behind its sharp fangs, a roar that I didn't think belonged to a human being rang out, and steam that smelled of blood continued to spew out.

　With the levels I've gained from my 'adventure' up to today added up, it's definitely the highest 'dragonization' ever.
　But it's still not enough.
　In terms of my race and personality - most of all, as a result of the evil effects of fearing 'dragonization' to this day, my level of skill in transformation is abnormally low. From here, I have to go further into 'Demonization', but before that, the light from the sky is completely blocked.

　The palm of the wooden giant's hand, which seemed to be falling to the ground, was finally in front of me.

　Immediately I swing my right fist at it.
　The size difference between me and the giant is obvious.
　It was like wire and hammer clashing, but I didn't fear and went upward with all my might and struck at it.

　The wooden giant's palm and the rigid arm that had been "dragonized" and the wooden giant's palm approached and made contact.
　Instantly, the earth shook.
　The shallows of blood around them were not ripples, but splashes as if they had exploded in a huge explosion, and all sound disappeared from the battlefield, if only for a moment.

　-- and then the power of the two arms comes to a halt, antagonizing each other.

　Di Prakra and I, fist to fist, let our last argument vibrate (koe) and pass on to the enemy's arm.

''Di Prakula, come with me, let's go support them!　Let's go down the path of our own choice, not the false 'happiness' we were given!　Even if that future is bound to fail!　Even though there is destruction ahead!　That's what it means to live free, Kanami!　That's what it means to live joyfully, says Rustyala (・・・・・・・)!　You taught us all that!
----!

　However, it wasn't Diprakra who reacted to that argument, but the 'Demon Stone Humans (Jewelculus)' who were almost caught up in the picking of the giants around them.
　There was a rush of unrest to the point that the 《Invisible Ice Room》 was about to unravel.

　That's how special Rustyala's name that came out now must be.
　Also, maybe it's with us.
　It's for times like this that Rustyala has said something to me before he died.
　It's easy to imagine that - I'm caught up in the 'magic stone humans' (Jewelculus) around me, and I'm flooded with memories of her.

　Even though she spoke harshly with her mouth, Rustyala was always very lenient with me.
　When I saw her bright, positive back, I wanted to spoil her forever. But when I saw her young, too innocent smile, I knew I couldn't continue to spoil her forever. You can't just rely on this four year old girl. I have to do my best to stand next to her and support her.

　Simply put, just thinking about Rastiala makes me feel better.
　He was that kind of person.
　That's why it's so empowering.

　As the rigid arms of the 'Dragon Man (Dragon Newt)' begin to push the giant, Diprakra also loses, and shouts back to me, his own voice conveying his magic.

''All of this is a lie!　I know who you are!　You just want the gods, don't you!　You're just looking for an opening to take it!　Ah, as usual, greedy and stupid as ever.　Can't you hear the voice of God telling you to put everyone's (everyone's) 'happiness' ahead of individual freedom!　Can't you feel it?　Even now the gospel is ringing in our ears.　Oh, Lord!　I'll do it!　I'm sure that the Lord's faithful servant Diprakra will complete your 'plan'!

　Diprakra's figure is invisible in his fist. However, his choice of words reminds me of those 'things that steal reason' that are no longer visible around him.
　Kanami's 'curse' as an example has a strong effect on Di Prakula because he was close to her. To the extent that it seems so, his argument was 'narrowed'.

'And eh!　Now!　I've seen what you want, boy!　Haha, you know how the ritual works and you are trying to rob our Levantine God!　I won't let it happen!　That is no longer our Levantine property!
----!　No!　Kanami belongs to no one!
No, it's ours!　We have called you and we have received you as our God!　You've paid a lot of price ......, finally!　Finally, that guy ......, the one who chose and called me, not Yotaki, the one who adored me!　I'll be a god, he told me so!　He's nowhere to be found!　I'm not giving this to anyone!　Do not come into our thousand-year relationship!　The world will be saved at last, and you are the descendent of a vicious dragon!　You're a demon, just like Tiara and Yotaki!　You are the evil dragon of legend!　A modern day 'Fafner'!

　Di Prakra continued to scream in unison, and continued to keep his momentum going, gagging and straining the giant's arms.

　It was a bit unplanned.
　He had heard that, unlike Legacy and the Sith, he was an apostle of knowledge and moderation, averse to violence and preferring dialogue.
　But now he had abandoned both intellect and moderation, and only deluded himself into believing in God.

　Perhaps, but he has been tormented by malice for a thousand years, and has failed many times and is somewhat desperate - that's why I feel that I cannot leave Diprakra alone.

'Everyone (everyone)!　Never let this evil dragon come near the gods!　This man kills the god that makes us happy!　There is a 'curse' in the name of the evil dragon that makes this possible since ancient times!　Only our God can save this world anymore. ......!　The evil dragon that greedily seeks to steal our gods must definitely be sealed here!　And for the sake of peace in this world!　All in one voice, praise God!　--'Our God in heaven, grant us divine magic!　--Holy Magic, Bloodline Rockfield!
「「「「「 and 'Our God in heaven, grant us divine magic.' -- "Bloodline Rockfield" 」」」」」

　The "Demon Stone Humans (Jewelculus)" and the others were worn out from maintaining the 《Invulnerable Ice Room》. Some of them were upset by the shameful altercation between me and Diprakra.
　However, treating me as the evil dragon of lore gave me some control, albeit temporarily.
　And that first time I heard of the magic, even if it was temporary, the effect was immense.

''Nah--?

　The weight of the giant's fist suddenly increases.

　But I soon realize it's not.
　The strength of my resisting arm was dampened.

''Evil dragon Snow!　Your transformation into a dragon is in accordance with God's plan!　Hence, I was stalling for time here: ......!　Didn't you see that the 'magic circle' hidden under the blood shallows had already finished activating!　It's a simple 'World Inquisitorial Formation' - no, it's more of a practical improvement, an 'Anti-Longman Sealing Formation': ......!

　Before I knew it, the blood shallows at my feet were glowing with a pale light.
　And a number of upside down auroras flickered and flickered on the battlefield.

　I've seen them. It was similar to the 'World Dedication Formation' used by Palinclone in the center of the 'mainland' a year ago. Of course, this one was the original, stronger and more specialized.

　As if he was convinced of victory with that 'Anti-Longman Sealing Formation', Diprakra explains in a slightly less heated voice.

''Originally, the 'World Devotional Formation' will be perfected by using the World Tree. ...... Me too, it's a magic formula that has been sealed for a thousand years. I'm sure you can't escape. I'm not going to be able to get used to it, nor will I be able to feed it to you. The only thing I can do is to gently wrap you in it and make you assimilate into the World Tree.

　With the experience of fighting with Seldora a thousand years ago, the dragon countermeasures must be perfect.
　However, in front of that 'anti-dragonist sealing formation' bait, I laugh to provoke him.

''Diprakra, you can try it. I'm less willing to give up than anyone else in the world right now. I might as well dare to eat this one before I go to Kanami.

　To this extent, I thought it was a good preparatory exercise for 'demonization'.
　It doesn't take much effort anyway, and it's a (・・・・・) attack to eat (・・・・・・).
　It's not a bad idea to get a bellyful of this to counter Kanami, who will probably use a lot of seal-type magic.

　It seems that my arrogant and greedy intentions of "I'm not going to be able to do this," was conveyed to me, and Diprakra replied evasively.

''d*mn it, you ......!　Really, it's like Seldora says: ......!　That's why I said it's an unaccustomed seal!　You can never be eaten!

　Diprakra reminded me of a thousand years ago. With a quiver of vibrations (koe), the giant's arms, which are butted up against mine, swell up rapidly.
　It's bloat from the rapid growth of its branches and roots.

　Its arms were meant to hold me down, not crush me.
　Not only do they grow larger, but some of the roots move like monster tentacles, entangling themselves around my body. I guess they intend to wrap it up without any gaps and take it in.

'I've already won!　The sinful, evil dragon that plans to kill the gods should be gone from the festival!　Don't try to dig up ancient legends in The Reincarnation now!　The story of the 'dragon race' and the 'winged race' has been settled long ago!
............!

　An ancient legend.
　The word bothered me more than the fact that I was declared victorious.
　If I could reach the point of 'demonization' beyond 'dragonization', would I know what it meant?

　With a bit of anticipation, I put my strength into my arms, rolled up the wind from my wings and tried to bite through the giant's palm head-on - that's when it happened.


''-- Resonance (...) magic [Flame Arrow].


　The magic name of 《Arrow》, the foundation of the foundation, echoed on the battlefield.
　However, contrary to the name Flame, that magic light was not red, but white.
　A flash of pure white filled my vision.

　It cleared and opened up my vision, which had been darkened by the wall of my fist.
　And all the weight on my thrusting fist disappeared, allowing me to see my surroundings clearly.

　The fist of the wooden giant that had greeted him had cleanly disappeared.
　To be precise, it had been destroyed by the magic arrow 《Flame Arrow》, blown away and vaporized in the sky. Even the branches and roots that were trying to get entangled in me were clumped together, and everything disappeared quietly.

　The tree giant has become a ship arm.
　Diprakra, floating in the air at the roots of the tree, watched it with dismay.

　I'm not stunned.
　Because the current mess of power and the beautiful white color is nothing but familiar.

　I turned back, surprised and delighted that it had already caught up with me.

　A short distance away from the battlefield in front of the labyrinth, at the end of the 'right-of-way', I can see a figure with one arm stuck out in front of me.
　However, that figure was not a pretty girl - Dia.
　A man with long golden hair dominating his face was standing majestic and daring.

　His outstretched arms were as bloated as ours, clothed in the hairline of a beast. The man who had been 'demonized' with the features of a lion, his golden hair flickered like a flame as he walked towards us and spoke.

''Snow, your vices are shifting. As a senior ...... nobleman, I would advise you to be a senior member of the aristocracy, but you are the same failure as that Kanami, such as the thoughts of those who have it are not divided. Just be yourself and hurry up to your partner.

　His dignified voice was not a loud vibration (voice) unlike mine, but it went firmly through every corner of the battlefield.

　It was the voice I knew.
　The one who unleashed the current 《Flame Arrow》 was my friend from the academy, Elmirad Siddharth, a man who represented the aristocracy of the Confederacy.

　Behind that Elmirad, a crowd of people had gathered.
　I could see the people of the Lauravian nation gathered together, led by the members of his guild, Supreme.
　Among them, there were many familiar faces mixed in with me.
