They collide again, and the 99th layer trembles.

　This is where it's settled, both me and Serdra.
　We understood each other, so we wouldn't retreat.

　After we met and kicked each other in the head and punched each other.
　Naturally, we began to hit each other on the ground.

　I slammed the heavily bloated 'dragon arm' down like a blunt weapon (kana hammer).
　Seldora prevents the blunt weapon (kanahachi) from playing with his own 'dragon arm'.

　With each touch, a heavy, enormous vibration filled the space and made my vision creak.

　I am the one whose 'body arts' are refined, and I have adopted the most advanced education and technology.
　However, Seldra follows his movements lightly with a wealth of experience and knowledge.

　As I knew from repeated mock battles, the simple 'bodily arts' match between me and Serdra was almost an even match. Direct hits rarely happen.

　And every time I catch the impact of Seldora's attack, my 'dragon's flesh' gets used to it.
　It was a physical characteristic of the 'Dragon Man (Dragon Newt)' that 'once an attack is eaten, it is difficult to communicate'. Therefore, my flesh and blood, which was under a strong load, instantly evolved and grew larger.
　I immediately tightened that 'dragon flesh' and condensed its flesh and blood - and repeated the process.

　The longer I continue this head-on bludgeoning, the more rapidly I become stronger.
　Even so, Serdra does not stop.
　The person who once advised me to "eat" the attack, the person who advised me to "eat" the attack, deepens his smile while delivering a counterattack fist like just the right bait.

''Kuha--''

　It spills out as if it were unbearable.
　And Seldora can't stop the laughter that once broke the dam.

''Kuhahahahaha!　Huh, kahaha, hahaha!　Ah hahahahahahaha!　Hahahaha!　Ah, Snow!

　Laugh. Laugh. Laugh. He called out my name with a strange laugh that suited the expression, "Laugh.
　Unlike me, who was full to the brim, Serdra had plenty of room to speak.

'That's a good name, Snow!　What a beautiful name!　It reminds me of the shitty rituals back home!　What does the name mean?　No. Is it easy to imagine?　Unlike a thousand years ago, it would have been named for peace!　As beautiful as the rare 'evil poisonous snow' that falls from that clear blue sky!　Beautifully, softly, gracefully!　After all that peace, yeah, I'm sure you were wished for, huh?　Hahaha--!　
----!

　We are told one way or the other while punching each other.
　This one continues to be apathetic and I can't argue with him at all.

'You grew up just as you wished, Snow!　You're getting better and better at being protected, Snow!　But alas, that Snow will end up fighting the same 'dragon man' (Dragon Newt), me!　All this time, Snow has been working for his country in good health, and he's finally starting to be recognized as a 'hero' by those around him!　You're starting to look back on you as the 'strongest' of the Confederacy!　I'm here--!

　It gets heated.
　Not just fighting, but talking.

"I'm going to take it all away!　All the honor and glory you've collected to date will be consumed by me in this final tale!　As long as they're on the ground (above), they will be!　When this Festival of the Endgame is over, your challenge will be called a bloody folly, and everyone in the Confederacy will have second thoughts!　After all, Snow Walker is one of the heroes of an era, and he's still a work in progress!　You can't reach the real 'great heroes' that have been talked about for a thousand years!　In the history of the world, I was the greatest man who ever lived, and everyone was fooled!　Pfft, pfft ha!　Ahahahahahahaha!

　There was something mentally unacceptable about continuing to be talked about as a victory, even if it was a tactical advantage.

　Simply put, it pissed me off.
　So, even though I refused to take the time to eat and be strong, I saw through the monotonous fist movements of Seldora and grabbed his two wrists.

　I stopped the rambling melee and took a breath.
　Then, consuming that all-important breath, I argue.

'Whatever!　If you want something like that, as much as you want it!

　Serdra was surprised by the response and reply.
　Then he immediately laughed in admiration and laughed while showing his canine teeth.

''Ha, you're getting stronger ....... Kufu, that's why you're ......!　It's so much fun fighting you!　It's really fun just to imagine you breaking from now on!　Oh, thanks to Kanami, the 'adaptation' has faded and I'm such a fun and joyful tano-eeee!

　Serdra laughed and then put her strength into both arms that were grabbed by me.
　I would be able to shake them off in one fell swoop, but I tried to move them bit by bit, as if to show off my strength.

　I can't stop.
　The one-sided narrative continues as their hands are gagged open.

I'm sure you'll find that your innate talent for Tennibin is the pinnacle of the 'Dragon Newt'. It's also historically speaking, it's one of the best in the world of demons. But that's about as far as it goes. You are only as good as that guy.
"Oh, is that guy ......?

　At that moment, Serdra had a kind look in her eyes.
　Through me, looking at someone different (...), it becomes a nostalgic face.

''Since it's only a 'king dragon' (that guy), it will never reach this 'evil dragon' (Fafner). ...... To be clear, I was born on a different level. Unlike you guys, I'm not a product of chance, but the result of necessity. History, wisdom, more sacrifices, more experiments, repeat, repeat, repeat!　Validate, validate, validate the mating!　Carefully selected, carefully selected, carefully selected kids!　The 'strongest' creature that has finally arrived is me!　There's no way we can win with just you guys!

　When he said that, my hand was finally forcefully released from my grasp.
　Seldora then reversed and grabbed my wrist back, spinning on the spot like a solitary piece of music.

　I also countered and put my strength into both arms. But this one can't unshake my hands.
　My body, which should be massive, is carried away lightly like a coiled thread. I had finished flipping when I thought my vision was snatched - and when I realized, my body had been slammed into the ground in 99 layers.

　With the impact running down my back, I can understand that I was thrown with a 'body technique'.
　My snatched vision was blurred, flashing in black and white, wobbling and wobbling. However, I could only see clearly the figure of Serdra standing in the back of that unsteady vision, looking down at me.

''Kuhu, kuhu, kuhu--''

　He laughed.
　Serdra put her right hand to her mouth and let her laughter swell as she ruffled her short blue hair with her left hand.
　Even though she covered her mouth with her arm, which was enlarged by 'dragonization', her voice still echoed throughout the space.

''Kuhahahahaha!　Ah, that's fun!　It's hilarious to outperform an opponent on a different level with overwhelming power!　And it's even more fun to overwhelm a strong man!　It's twice as tannoying to eat what that guy has worked so hard to build up!　Of course!　That's what living things are for!　In the days of the dark clouds, common sense was common sense too, eh?　Ah-ha-ha-ha!

　He laughed too much and stumbled back.
　We were in the middle of a battle, and I was laughing at him for a few more moments.

　It was the first time I had ever seen Serdra in person.
　It's quite unique, but I guess this is who he is.
　This is the last time he's going to be able to do this," he said, "so this is the last time," and "it's a memorial," and he may have used the occasion of the "Final Festival" as an opportunity to expose everything to the public.

　I ignore the pain in my back and put my hands on the ground while wobbling.
　While standing up, I respond in my own way to Seldra's one-sided story.

''...... Yeah. I think predation is the rule of living things, both a thousand years ago and now (now). That's why I was able to become the commander-in-chief even though I'm like this, and you were appointed the commander-in-chief a thousand years ago. Serdra did nothing wrong.
............?

　I guess he didn't expect the agreement to come back.
　From Seldra's reaction, it was entirely clear that she was expecting me to answer "wrong

　-- and clearly upset, Serdra stops the lighthearted banter that has been going on up to this point with a snap.

　It was upsetting, and my mouth was full, too.
　The gap in my mind is too big.
　I'm sure the weakness of that unusual tongue warfare is no different than any other 'reason stealer'.

　-- only, the awkwardness due to that weakness would also be the same as other 'reason-stealing things'.

　Upset, Serdra observes me with a fine eye as I stand up, wobbling, and then speaks up again, this time with the exact opposite intensity, looking at someone else.

'...... that diminished mouth, that face. Without a doubt, Snow is a descendant of mine. ...... It's just like that cousin Ane. It's a perfect match. But you can still find some of that guy's face. I sometimes recognize my king: ......

　I don't know who this "Ane" is.
　But if it was My King, I could guess who he was seeing through me.

"Is this My King, or is that your sister Titi?

　I'm glad you said the resemblance, but I'm also wondering if it's confusing.

　Is it because of this dress?　Indeed, it's the light armor that was given to me today by Titi sis. But if you ask my fellow guild member Alibers, he said that the 'Flying Greenstone Light Armor Rui Fenrit' was not exclusive to big sister, but was a hobby that he made up.
　Then are you saying that they are similar to me, looking at my face and behavior?

　Towards me, who tilts her head, Serdra answers.

'Yes, I mean that Lord Titty: ....... ...... Well, that guy. I don't remember him calling himself Titi at first. He bragged a lot about how nice a name it was, and his face was so beautiful ...... and I liked it, so he wandered ...... and wandered?

　Furthermore, in front of my eyes, he begins to swallow and dig up his memories.

　Even though it's a mild illness compared to the other 'reason-stealing things', it seems that Seldora also has some of his memories snatched up due to the harmful effects of flying through a thousand years with the 'summoning'.
　After mumbling and asking herself the question, she gives the answer alone.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world. It's a far cry from me and Snow, the chosen legendary 'dragon race'. A different species is a different species. I don't care about anything. It can't be.

　I shake my head.
　And then I came to the selfish conclusion that me and my sister Titty had nothing to do with it.

　That was unacceptable to me.
　'You can't make that wildly convincing argument,' he countered.

'Seldra, perhaps that's not true. I'm not talking about who is descended from whom. Because it's a thousand years, a thousand years.

　I don't think I have a 'connection' only with you, the 'dragon man' (Dragon Newt), because I'm a 'dragon man' (Dragon Newt). Because I'm a nobleman, it can't be just a nobleman.

''Do you think the bloodline is neatly connected by a single line?　My Walker family's blood is a soggy mess. As my mother-in-law said, blood is a complicated thing. Of course, sometimes we can split up. But once a connection is created, it doesn't disappear very often, for better or worse.
Veins are intertwined?　...... No, that's right. That's right: ......

　In an enclosed place like a hidden village, many marriages are performed by close relatives.
　Perhaps it was because Serdra's acquaintances and friends had few marriages, and she was biased, with the only examples being Kanami and Nosfi, but the expression on her face was that she hadn't thought of that idea.

'So, I'm sure I'm related to your sister Titty as well. And also that Rowen Alais, although he's a bit of a hater. Even if it's a very large, roundabout, distant connection, I think I'm connected to a lot of people's blood.
My King Lord Titi and his knight Rowen Alais. ......

　Putting two names together, Serdra frowned.
　In contrast, I said the magic, remembering the two people I had interacted with.

''At least, I have inherited one of my sister's magic. --《Cool Bayonet》

　I gather wind on my right arm.
　And since he can't dexterously harden it with magic power - it's a mimicry by 'dragon wind' limited to when he's 'dragonized'.
　Seeing that he has constructed a bayonet (bayonet) with the wind, even though it is self-made, Seldra smiles.

''It's the King's Wind Sword ......!

　He seemed to remember, and he dismissed the meaning at a glance.

　And immediately I fly high.
　I retreat to the distance where this bayonet is at its most powerful.

　As I followed, Serdra also flew with her wings.
　However, perhaps conscious of the bayonet's firing line, it didn't follow straight after me.
　It seemed to have memories of being shot by this memorable bayonet a thousand years ago.

　I naturally fly in a curving line to match the bypass of that seldora.
　Two 'Dragon Men' (Dragon Newt) with huge wings.
　Using the depths of the labyrinth as the sky, they began an aerial battle.

''--[Flyshoot]''

　I shoot out a bullet at Seldora, who is chasing me.

　However, it's not as powerful as Titi's sister.
　It would be a different story if I had the magic stone from "The One Who Steals the Reason of the Wind", but I don't have it on hand right now.
　It's just a re-creation of the magic I trained in the days when there were magical stones, including the bayonet on my arm, using the "dragon wind". It's not far from the real thing.

　However, Seldora is remembering the threat of big sister Titi, so she is wary and chooses to attack me from a distance.
　What looks like a bayonet, the same as mine, was formed on her arm with the 'dragon wind'.
　However, it's not exactly the same.
　Serdra was more familiar with wind magic and was more complete. On top of that, it was also a shape I had never seen before.

　My bayonet, or bayonet, was long and slender, but Seldora was closer to a cube.
　That, two in each hand. And what was shot out of its ejection port was smaller than the bullets I fired - but the ejection speed was unusually fast.

''----?''

　While this one fires a single shot in a single breath, the other side is incessantly dispersing more than double-digit bullets.

　Furthermore, Serdra moves her hands and instead of a point attack, she attacks almost like a line.
　This one's bullets are a substitute for the condensed 'dragon wind', so the moment my point touches the line, it explodes.

　It's a shootout air battle.
　If I shot ten bullets, Seldora shot a thousand bullets.
　Both I and Seldora dodge it with high speed flight.

　However, when I checked carefully, only my bullets were neatly shot off and didn't reach anywhere.
　On top of that, there's still plenty of room on Seldora's side. While shooting a thousand bullets, I prepared nearly a hundred additional magic - wind spheres about the size of a fist - around the wings that were dexterously spread out, and floated them.

　By the time he was able to identify the spheres as the attack magic 《Dragoon Ardor》, the wind spheres had already been released onto the empty battlefield.
　Since it didn't pass through the gun-type magic in his hand, its flying speed was slow. However, it was clearly moving according to Seldra's will, guiding it towards me as it flew.

　I had no choice but to choose to retreat as fast as I could and imitate Seldra.
　Add the image of a bayonet with an emphasis on ejection speed to the bayonet. On top of that, I shot down the slow guided projectile 《Dragoon Arder》 efficiently so as not to waste bullets, and accurately while running away and flying.

　Furthermore, this one also prepared several special 《Dragoon Arders》 around his wings and immediately released them into the empty battlefield. Among them, he also mixed in 'transparent bullets' and 'a mass of wind that reacts to magic power and automatically explodes'--!

　A huge storm of explosions and shocks rolled through the 99 layers.
　Shooting, shooting, shooting, shooting, a field of colorless explosions spread out across the field.
　The fireworks, which surpassed the "End of Tan Festival" on earth (above), were flickering in just a few seconds by just two people.

　And just like the 'Body Technique', this aerial battle also has few direct hits.
　As it is, there is no way to get anywhere in this situation. Just when I thought that I would be able to weave the fisticuffs I mentioned earlier into this aerial shootout, a large vibration rushed across the battlefield.
　It was the vibration (voice) of Serdra's magic.

''--Ku-ha-ha!　Hahahahahaha!　Snow, you don't just talk!　I'll do more than I expected!　Certainly, it's not just the power of the family of The Dragon Man (Dragoneut)!　I have a tactical theory about the House of Noble Walker!　I feel the teachings of the Stealers of Reason!　A variety of experience and magical knowledge is packed into your fighting style!　Oh, great!　It's getting more worth breaking!　Hahahahaha!'

　Over the past two months, Serdra and I have had many mock battles and discussed the tactics and strategies of our country.
　Still, I can praise my mentor for hiding his power from me, even though he is my enemy.
　However, I'm sorry, but we can't bring ourselves to praise the enemy.

''-- You're just talking out of your ass.

　This one also used magic to raise his voice and return it.
　Not only do they start shooting magic bullets at each other, but they also start throwing words at each other.

''Huh?　What are you talking about, dude? I'm the mouthpiece?'
'I'm a pro at being spoiled, I get it. Serdra is a spoiled mouth.'

　As we fight, I assure you.

　There are many reasons.
　Even now, he's still saying "it's worth breaking" and looking as sweet as a relative's uncle.
　They talk tough and threaten, but are ready to spoil you in the end.

　I was good at spotting such an opponent.
　Or rather, Kanami was completely that type, and Seldora was definitely in the same vein.

　Serdra talks back in a louder voice than me while increasing her flight speed.

''I'm the spoiled mouthful ......?　Well, that's not a very funny joke. You haven't heard anything about me?　Before I was a general, I was a pleasure killer. I used innocent 'demons' as experimental material, and turned a thousand year old Phania into hell ....... He killed good people for fun and inspired promising bad people to spread the scourge!　I'm probably the biggest sinner in history for spreading the most 'misery' around!　Definitely a villain who should be the first to die before anyone else!　That's right, the real 'evil dragon' is me!　Our God would approve of that!

　He declares that, and shoots a large bullet at one point.

　From that bullet, I can feel Seldra's mind wavering.
　While avoiding the other party's bullets that have started to become a little monotonous, I calmly return the words and bullets.

''A villain to die?　Is that what Kanami said?　That Kanami, really?　Kanami may have the sense to say 'evil dragon' is cool, but you'd never say death,'

　Kanami was the type of person who believed that no matter what kind of evil he was dealing with, there had to be circumstances behind it.
　Even if the villain didn't have any circumstances, he would still overlook them in the hopes of reforming them.
　That indulgence is no different even if Kanami himself is a victim. For example, even when dealing with that big villain (Palinclone Legacy), it was only his mouth that he hated in the end.

'............'
'Kanami would know all about it and say, "Serdra was the greatest hero. I'm sure she'd give him a good workout, 'You worked very hard.'

　Amidst the explosions of the shootout.
　A little silence fills the air.

　After a sufficient pause, a loud excuse is muttered back from Seldora.

'Don't be silly ....... There is no way a murderous villain is the greatest hero. The fools on earth are being tricked by me, but ....... It's the only thing on earth that is incontrovertible proof that the scoundrels have been fooled. Only a scoundrel like me can make a laugh out of you, stop joking around, Snow.
As am I if I'm a murderer. Titty's a mass murderer, just like me.
'No, no!　I'm not with you people!　Military personnel killing for their country is a whole different place of responsibility!　You were only fighting for someone else!　Especially Lord Titty, the king who stood up for the long oppressed 'demons'!　There was a good cause there!　He had noble aspirations!　He had an inherited spirit!　I enjoyed killing people as a hobby, and I'll never talk about it again in the same breath.

　Here Seldora was furious and shouted.
　And the attacks became even more messy.

　His gracefulness was as off as Kanami.
　On top of that, he even has as much loyalty as that id.

''............!

　I can feel Seldra's heart becoming more and more exposed.
　But it's just too blatant to react a bit.

　I felt like they were inviting me to say that the weakness is this gap, if you want to break it down.
　But because this is not a trap, it really is a weakness (・・・・・・・・), the 'reason-stealers' are the 'reason-stealers'.
　Seldora is no different from the other 'things that steal reason' - or perhaps, in in inverse proportion to his high fighting power, he is more weak in conversation than anyone else.

　However, it's not so easy to have a 'discussion' like this, where you have to fight in the air against a Seldora opponent and clash your mind.
　Hence, a thousand years ago, no one might have been able to exploit that weakness.
　And now, with the departure of so many "reason-stealers," there are very few people who can "talk" with Seldora.

　That's why it's me.
　This sturdy, loud, resignation-less than anyone else, I am the one who shakes the dewy parts of Seldora with vibrations (chuckles).
　Even while fighting and shooting at each other--!

'That titty sister of yours believed in you to the end. ......!　He said Serdra was blunt, but she was a goody-goody who always tried to help the weak!''
"Not on his watch!　Acting the part, I cheated!　But they were killing and killing and killing and killing around out of sight!'
'But still!　Surely big sister Titty was counting on the General (Seldora)!　I was proud of him, and I was grateful!　That's why I was so worried about your illness until the moment we parted!'
"He's a gullible bastard!　When I lied about the disease I was easily bored with, I just believed it!　Oh, she was really stupid and clumsy!'
"No matter how much you swear at me!　Seldora was kind, as evidenced by the titty-sister who spoke with me!　...... or rather, lies and nothing. It doesn't matter how evil your heart is, if you never show it, it's as good as nothing.'
"............!　No, no. ......'

　Each time I repeated, "This is how it was, Titty sister", Seldora's movements slowed down.

　The 'speed' of the legendary flight went to the 'speed' of leaving all the bullets behind.
　From the 'speed' that can be captured by the naked eye to the 'speed' at which an ordinary little bird flies.
　The more he speaks, the slower he becomes, and finally he stands still in the air.

　Serdra drifted in the air, looked in a new direction, and was hit by all the bullets I fired, unprotected.
　I'm surprised, and I stop my hand - but I don't let my mouth drop.

''I also believe in General Seldora, the one that big sister Titi believed in. I also trust her very much as one of the 'dragon people' (Dragon Newt) in a thousand years.

　Seldora speaks raggedly and loudly through the smoke caused by the magic particles.

'That's why ......, I'm telling you not to be fooled ....... I'm just acting like a hero and tricking you ......'
"Seldora was kind. He taught me many things. Her magnificent figure never disgraced the legendary hero. She was just as sweet to me as Titi was to you.
'So that's it!　For this pleasure!　Thus, to overwhelm and amuse you, being strong!　You and Fafner!　You spoil them all a bit, and they miss you immediately!　You guys were prime prey!　I was just raising them well because they were boring to eat right away!　What's to be done when your prey pines for a predator waiting to fatten up and fatten up!　You big idiot!

　Serdra scratches and screams at her short, blue head of hair.

　The damage can be seen from her appearance.
　He was hit by a bullet that would lightly blow away a large army of ten thousand.
　Even though he was a quintessential Seldora, the skin on his body was torn and bleeding in many places.

　However, he was more pained by my story than the physical damage it caused.
　He lingered in the air, covering his ears with his hands and trying to offset my vibrations (chords) with the 'dragon's roar'.

'It's sweet!　You guys are sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet!　It's all a bit of a hobo dream.　It's just the kind of thing you'd expect to hear from a man born into a privileged environment!　Life is so much easier for those guys who can't afford to eat, because they don't have to see the actual situation!　Some of them can't even eat and want to live with their bad behavior!　Some of those guys are really bad guys who can't help themselves anymore!　You were never born with anything to lose!　I had so much to lose!　Such people are born with a natural inclination to do bad things and are willing to do bad things of their own accord!　There are a lot of people who need to be killed!　Split, Snow, split!　Let's split up!

　That unusual scream had become a kind of protective barrier.
　With an unintentional 'dragon roar', all the magic and bullets that were left on the 99th layer were scraped away.

　Truly terrifying.
　However, what is frightening is not the strength of the vibration of the scream, but the instability peculiar to 'The One That Steals the Reason'.
　The three unstable and frightening 'reason-stealers' that I have encountered are Rowen, Ayde and Ragne.
　The current Seldora is close to the symptoms of those three people.

''Ah, this is me!　I'm the villain who tormented Tity, Eid, Fafner and Kanami a thousand years ago!　You know why?　Because I was born with nothing but pleasure in the suffering of others!　Normal fun is so boring!　So I laughed and spread the 'misery' around!　That was the only thing that was hilarious!　Hahaha, just being alive is annoying too!　The worst is worse!　It's really funny!　Oh, that's so funny!　He's the kind of guy that makes you scream, I'm aaaaah!

　Serdra insists.

　Don't be fooled by the bad guys towards me, he says.
　He said that I (me) am an unstable and dangerous person, so be careful.
　Especially a villain who deceives 'heroes' should be killed immediately.

　He's worried about me, even if it means abandoning himself.
　But I can't go along with that desperation because I'm me (・・・・).


'--Seldra. You think if you act so bad, one day someone will stop you (・・・・・・). I definitely don't want to. There is no convenient 'hero' like that anywhere. They won't come to me.'


　He shoved Seldra, who was looking at him with a somewhat clinging look in her eyes, away once and for all.

''...... ah, ah.''

　Seldora's momentum stopped at the response, even the screaming.
　However, he managed to squeeze out his voice while mocking himself.

'Snow ......, eh, if you're a "hero" ......, you'll come ....... If you want it, God will become ....... No, he's already become. I was going to pit two worlds against each other, and God stopped me from being evil. You should've seen it. Me and him together ...... spun a romantic tale of dragon slaying. That was definitely the ...... battle between the villain and the hero, the battle ......, I'm sure of it. Ki, that was a beautiful light ....... Kuhu, kuhu, hahahahahahaha--'

　You laugh and say "should" because you're no longer confident in your memory.
　I don't feel like I'm living on my own anymore because I've been letting the flow of the example (...) keep me going.
　So, even if the magic overwrites what's important to you before you know it, Serdra can't complain about it anymore.

　She's really weak.
　Seldra is overwhelmingly violent (tinkering), yet overwhelmingly weak.
　It's heartbreaking to see the desperation (burn) that I and Rowen once had.

　That's why, at this greatest opportunity (opportunity), I hasten to say what I want most.

Serdra, you know that already. Let's go together and not leave it to others. I want to go with you to help Kanami.

　Reaching out his hand.
　Just then, Serdra looked at his hand and gave him a frightened look.

　You know what I mean.
　This is not a helping hand.
　Just lend a hand for a little while to make him walk on his own feet.

'Me too ......?　'Helping the Kanami,' says ....... That Kanami to ......?'

　When Seldora heard it, his voice trembled in the sky at the 99th layer.
　However, it wasn't because it was the 'dragon's roar'. However, instinctively, Seldora was terrified (...) and his voice trembled.

''Mu, it's useless ......!　It was all in vain!　I fought to help and I failed!　While the rest of them are succeeding!　I'm the only one, because I failed and failed and failed and failed for a thousand years, and that's why I'm doing this!　A month ago, I cornered Kanami, and that's why you're in this mess!　Oh, my God!　Snow, look!

　Serdra spread her arms and tried to get him to reassess the situation.

　It wouldn't just be about the 99th layer of this 'Dragon Wind' blowing.
　It also includes the "Final Festival" on the ground.
　Above all, it includes the rituals that are being held in the deepest part of the world.

It's because of my failure that I got caught up in this mess!　Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ......!'

　The failure would be the '80th Trials' that took place in Kanami's birthplace of Nihon.
　For quite some time now, Kanami and Serdra have been saying that the 'ordeal' is over

　-- but I have some doubts.

　Was that '80th Trial' really serious?
　It's a battle that no one sees except the two parties involved.
　Above all, like the other 'Stealers of Reason', I don't feel any sense of refreshment from Seldra after the 'ordeal' is over.

　I doubt Seldra's seriousness.
　Receiving that gaze, Serdra moved her hands that she had put to her ears, this time hiding her face and shouting as if she were running away.

''Ho, I was serious!　I'm serious, too!　I did my best to impose The Eighty-Third Test!　I've used everything I could get my hands on!　He won their trust, tricked them, and attacked them in their sleep!　We've got hostages!　They took the world over there and used firearms and weapons!　I'm the strongest guy in the world, and I've done that, and I've failed!　It's already beyond strong or weak!　Kanami is invincible!　It's not a fight!　I have no enemies!　It's not that he's not here or anything, it's just that the concept of it is no more!　Why is that?　Because it's a different dimension!　What do people call that different dimension of existence!　--It's "God"!　You can't call him anything but God!　How can I, the 'Seldora', kill the God we 'Seldora' prayed for!

　Serdra remembered The Eighty-Third Tribulation, and she shrank back, her wings and tail trembling all over.

　The trauma of defeat was completely ingrained in him.
　Such a foully strong Seldora is trembling like a newborn little bird. I can tell just by looking at her that she is on a different level of trauma of the same kind as I once was, but on a different level.

I've been given a "miracle" by ......, that god gave me a "miracle" ....... I'm not going to be the only one who has a problem with this, but I'm going to be the only one who has a problem with it. He has overridden that d*mned adaptation with an escape ......!　Oh, isn't that a wonderful 'curse'!　Being allowed to escape means you get to live!　From now on, I'm allowed to be normal and 'happy': ....... Ha, haha. Yup, I've been forgiven!　The only person who can forgive a murderer is the person who was killed!　That's why murderers are forever unacceptable!　I got pardoned for deviating from that rule!　If there is such a being, it's only God!　Now only God can forgive me and heal me!　It also gives me peace of mind!　Now that I've become God's sharpshooter, I'm finally at peace ....... So I don't have a choice anymore: ....... You know I have no choice but to pray ......, Snow......'

　Wobbling, wobbling, wobbling.
　99 layers of delusional beliefs in the air, Seldra's figure was deeper than any of his earthly followers.

　But I deny that too one-sided relationship.

'Healed and 'safe' ....... Do you really believe that?　I was shaking so much.

　I point at Seldra's trembling fingertips.

　Caught in the act, Serdra turns her eyes to me. Then he slowly lifts his hand to eye level, revealing his own trembling (trauma).

'You know exactly what I mean, Snow ....... This is the awe of God and t, trauma. How can I fight God again when I'm shaking like an idiot?　Why would I grab your hand?
'It depends on how you think, Serdra. You can't just cower in fear and regret your past mistakes. We can also learn from our mistakes and try not to repeat them. That trembling can be powerful if you eat it. ......!　So, even if you fail, do it again!　Once again, Seldora is serious, let's give Kanami a shot!　With us!
And again?　Of course it's impossible. If you're serious, you'll fail again--
I don't care if you fail!

　I shouted to Seldra to interrupt her as she repeated the same words as I once did.

　I'm tired of hearing that kind of excuse because I'm me and I'm tired of hearing it.
　I've even got an answer.
　So I'll skip the middle and tell you.

'Maybe from now on, Seldora will beat me!　But when you wake up, I will fight you again!　No matter what I lose, I'll fight it again and again!　I decided I wasn't going to give up!　Again and again, and again and again, until we win!　I didn't run away, I took it all in and decided to take a bite and fly (yikes)!　You're not the one who told me that!　Serdrach!
'Oh ......, ah ....... Se, 'Seldora' ......?

　Life (all of it), condensed and slammed.
　And Serdra is speechless.

　It should be ...... well pressurized.
　Without a doubt, I'm rocking Seldra's mind with the soul to soul clash.

　But is it because I've shaken it too much?
　Serdra suddenly looks away in confusion.
　I looked behind me, moving my head only to look behind me, even though I should have been called my name now (・・・・・).

　It's as if I'm not 'Seldra'.
　As if the one fighting me now is another 'Seldora'.
　As if there is no "Seldora" in this world.

　I stop screaming, feeling that I am beginning to "escape" from reality.

'Ce, Seldora!　We are the most powerful of our race, the Dragon Newt!　What do you have to give up!　Pray, hope and cling!　That won't change anything!　No help is coming!　So, with me--

　I encouraged him to do so and reached further forward.
　But Seldora--.

'Yes, that's right, "Serdra" ....... Pray, hope, cling ......, why did I kill you?　To the extent that you don't have a heart (・・・・・・・), I'm sure you had a way to survive somehow.　My King Lord moved even though his heart was crushed. Even the little ghostly bastard. So why?　Why did you, the proud dragonborn, give it up?　Praying and waiting in the depths of the mountains like that, there's no way you'll get help. I couldn't get rid of the evil dragon unless I killed it. So why is that?　Why, cousin (hey) ......?　Why didn't you really try to beat me? Hey ......, nah--

　He tuned me out and said, "That's right.
　I thought for a moment that I had gotten through.
　But I soon realized that it wasn't.

　Serdra is now talking to someone behind me (・・・・・・・).
　He calls that someone 'Serdra' and all the time they are 'together (...)'.

　Mental interference type magic?　Or is it simply because you've been with Kanami for too long?
　Obviously, it's a 'vision' similar to Kanami's. It's clear that she's also hearing "auditory hallucinations". In other words, that means--

　Tasteless.
　As I thought during Diprakra, it's really too bad that Kanami, who fraudulently calls himself a god, is spreading the effects of 'constriction (...)'.
　And even if it's just 'adaptation' and 'escape' to a double seldom-eyed seldom-eyed seldom-eyed seldom-eyed seldom-eye!

　When I was convinced of my own failure, Serdra suddenly turned forward.
　Then, she changed her gentle uncle-like expression up to this point, glared at me as if she was avenging her parents, and shouted.

''Ah, ah!　Ahhhhhh, that's right!　Oh, my God, that's ridiculous!　Because you can't win in a proper way!　"The Lord of the Rings"!　That's really f*cking bullshit!　Lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o - ！！！！'

　Serdra's vibration (voice) had exploded upwards.
　It was no longer a voice.
　With the sound alone, the space around me distorted and my vision turned white.
　Furthermore, by calling me "Lord" and pointing at me, the 99 layers of "Dragon Wind" and "Dragon's Roar" filled with "Dragon's Wind" and "Dragon's Roar" all became directional. They envelop me from all directions as I try to sense the danger and get a distance.

　Amazing.
　That unchanted yet powerful magic - more than that, I'm surprised at Seldra's poor mental state.

　I can't help but call me a "mother-in-law imitator" as I exploit the gap in my mind with this.
　However, Seldra is clearly reprimanding someone different through me.

　While talking to me just before, he is mistaken for someone else.
　In the midst of a terrifyingly powerful 'hallucination', Serdra continues to have a dream that he cannot wake up from.

"'Born of the blood of greed, the seed of greed shall perish'!　"Devour until you're hungry.

　Although my ears aren't functioning properly, that boisterous 'chanting' hit my eardrums.
　Instantly, Serdra's magic power becomes incomparably denser than before.

''--Ancient Compound (...) Magic [Dragon Slayer's Dragon Blade (Dragon Genocide Ardor)] aaaaaaah!

　This is the first time I've heard the name of magic.
　The fact that it was passed as "Ancient Magic" reminded me of the designation 'Demon Poison' from a thousand years ago.

　However, that's not all.
　Furthermore, there are two types of magic.
　I also feel a completely different kind of "poison" than the "demon poison".

　It was mixed in with the ominous 'dragon wind' that was blowing around.
　Your instincts tell you that this is an unworldly poison.
　My memory tells me that this is the wisdom that Serdra found in the other world.

　With a special vibration, the poison, which is not similar to the demonic poison, penetrates my sturdy scales and skin, and penetrates the blood vessels that travel through my flesh.

　The vibrations, wind and poison tangle with my limbs as I fly, enveloping me.
　I'm restrained in midair, unable to move - and soon, I explode.

　With me as the center point, 99 layers burst.
