97 97. The King's Flash




 He was about to use his flight magic to get to the evil dragon. That's when it happened.

"You are weaker than you were a thousand years ago.

 A voice echoed throughout the Imperial City.

 Fombasque floated up in front of the evil dragon, his body covered with a hideous darkness.

What's the matter, Fombasque? I told you to wait.
I made a promise to you. How could I possibly keep my word to you?

 What the hell does he think he's doing?

"GOOOOOOOOO!

 The evil dragon cries out.
 I see... So that's it.

 The evil dragon writhed in agony, and the darkness around Fombasque grew darker and darker.

"The magic created a thousand years ago has been sealed away by you. But I'm not one to give up. I would have given up a thousand years ago if this was the end.

 Fombasque's body is being taken in by the evil dragon.

"You fused with the dragon?

 The magic of fusing with demons and monsters to gain more power ...... has been around for a thousand years.
 However, no ordinary user would have the evil idea of fusing with an evil dragon.
 And even if they did, they would most likely lose their wills to the demons and lose their egos.

 But...

I can't do it! I'm not going to be able to defeat you with a single evil dragon! But what if the Evil Dragon and the Demon God's power are combined? Shiver in fear!

 The evil dragon's voice came out.
 The evil dragon's will would normally be gone, but Fombasque is forcing it down with his vast magical power.
 I'm sure that's just what a demon god would do.

"Hmm. It's quite well done. I'm impressed.
I know, I know! But you're really afraid of me. You're wondering if you can really beat me.
Me?

 There's something I want to test you on.
 I'm not afraid.

I'll erase the margin from your face.

 Fombasque took on the body of an evil dragon.
 The dark cannon.

"Dark cannon.

 Fombasque ......, or rather, the evil dragon's mouth, is filled with magic power.
 It roared and fired.
 It's not meant to hit me. It was fired at something far behind it.

 The dark cannonball sliced through the wind and grew louder and louder.
 And it struck a mountain, a mountain you can see from the Imperial City.

 Explosion.

Oh no! What the hell just happened?

 Lara bowed her head.
 The blast had even reached the Imperial City.

 By the time the explosion stopped...


"Well, the mountains are ...... gone!


 It was Marise who noticed it first.

 There was a large mountain in the direction she was pointing, but it had disappeared without a trace.

Kaka Kaka! How about that!

 Fombasque said proudly.

I've even gained the power of the evil dragon and I can easily make the mountain disappear. How do you like that? Do you tremble at this power? Now it's your turn.

 Slowly, the eyes of Fombasque, who had taken on the body of an evil dragon, turned to look at me.
 One eye alone is more than the size of a man.
 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it.
A single dragon is enough to bring about the end of the world. ...... I sense another great magic power in that dragon.
The mountain ...... is gone ...... Cynthia, are you going to die ......?

 It wasn't just Lara and the others.
 It was not only Lara and the others who saw it, but all the people in the imperial capital looked up at Fombasque and started praying with their hands in the air.

"Oh, save my life, .......
Are you saying that the world is ending here?
Please ...... help me .......

 They fell to their knees, some of them in tears.

 Seeing this, Vombasque looked happy.

"Worship me, all of you!

 He then continued as if he were the ruler of the world.



But this world is already in retreat! Don't think I'm serious just now, okay? If I'm serious, I can destroy this city with just one shot! First, you'll have to destroy the city with the heretics. You will be sacrificed in order to defeat the heretics!

 Fombasque's mouth opened again.
 His words would not be a lie. Fombasque isn't serious yet. He should be able to blow up a whole city if he really wanted to.

"Lara.

 I stood in front of Lara and the others and continued.

"Marise, Cynthia, Averill ...... and everyone, don't worry. If you're praying, if you're despairing, look at me. There's nothing to worry about.

 Dark Cannon.
 The previous cannonball is fired from the Phombasque.
 This time it's five ...... times the size of the last one, maybe even ten times.

""Kurt ------!"

 Just as the dark cannon was about to hit me, I heard the three of them scream.
 But Lara and Marise, Cynthia ......, and most of all Von Bask. What the hell is wrong with you people?
 To begin with, .......


I'm not sure what you're talking about.


 I catch the dark cannon with my right hand.
 The cannonballs converged on my right hand.

What's that? ......!

 And by squeezing it, the Dark Cannon disappeared.

"You dealt with the hammer of darkness with one hand, ......?
"Well, that was quite a spell, though. "Well, that was quite a spell, but it did burn my right hand a little.

 I drew my magic sword from its sheath.
 I pulled the sword from its sheath and used flight magic to fly up to Phonvask.


I'm finally getting used to this body.


 I said as I looked at Fombasque.

What do you mean?
The soul has become familiar, but this reincarnated body is quite difficult to use. I couldn't even bring myself to do it.

 I raise my magic sword.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.
 I knew this magic sword was good.
 I can't believe that even if I put all my magic power into it, it won't break.

You mean you're ...... not ......?
"Oh, it was just a game until now.

 A thousand years ago. I couldn't test it on Phonebask.
 But in hindsight, that was all a mistake.
 By not stopping him then, I created a tragedy like Avril's.

 Then this time, I will not show mercy.


"The King's Flash (Divine Roi)


 A thousand years ago, alone and oppressed as a heretic, I attempted to create this deadly magic.
 I had succeeded in developing it, but I was unable to test it.
 But I never thought that after a thousand years, I would finally be able to try it out.

"Now, Fombasque, clench your teeth. This time I will crush your soul.

 Fombasque tried to run away immediately, but it was not possible.
 Because I'm holding Fombasque down with a binding spell.

 The spell is simple and straightforward.
 It's a spell that puts magic into a sword and cuts through space and dimension.
 But it is simple that makes it so powerful.
 The unmixed magic strikes Fombasque.

 A flash.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

 Fombasque screams.
 Fombasque's body is torn in half.

 But that's not enough.
 A portal to a spooky space opens behind Fombasque, tearing apart the dimension as well.

"You said it yourself, Fombasque. "Fombasque, you said that in some dimensions, the reason of this world does not work.
You can't be serious, can you ......?
"Yes.

 It's not enough to just kill this thing.
 Fombasque's body is being sucked into the dimension.

You'll spend the rest of your life there for a thousand years.

 Moreover, Fombasque's body must be in excruciating pain from being cut by the magic sword.
 He would have to live there for another 1000 years in the same state.

 Fombasque, who was slashed by the magic sword and lost almost all of his magic power, would not be able to escape from the dimension.
 Well, even if he had any magic left, he would lock the door to this side of the world, so he would never be able to leave.
 It can never be unlocked by anyone.

 This was the crime against Fombasque that had decimated the world's magical civilization for the past 1000 years.

So it was impossible to defeat the heretics in a thousand years? Even with all this power! Even with all this power, you still couldn't reach the heretics!


What are you talking about?

 After Fombasque was swallowed by the dimension and disappeared.
 I said to myself.

"If you think you can reach me in a thousand years, you're wrong.
