"Please. Please make it work. ...... sanctuary."

　The last resort to defeat Naja.

　All the methods we have tried so far have failed, and this will be the very last stand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I faced Nadja, I chanted "Sanctuary" with a will to cling to the straw.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sanctuary is a magic that activates in space.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Like Purification, it has the effect of healing dirt, but the difference is that it affects the space itself, while Purification is used on people.

　Once used, a warm and soft pillar of light rises up in the space, in which even the King of the Immortals is able to suppress the magic of the unclean and unholy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic is invoked.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But the place where the magic will be activated is not the place where I am fighting Naja.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I used the sanctuary in a place that is a foreign space separated from this space.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's a kuzenjutsu.

　This magical sword was created by combining a Zantetsu Sword and a transfer stone, and was born as a sword with a mysterious effect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although it exists as a sword, its form cannot be seen at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It has the ability to cut off anything that comes in contact with it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was thinking that this sword might have the property of being in a different space, which might be used to move between transference stones to a distant place in an instant.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, I hypothesize that the sword cuts the whole space by the influence of the different space.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If this is the case, the sword itself may be another space.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Based on this idea, I applied [Sanctuary] to the sword itself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Bingo. The sword has become a sanctuary.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that my ton of hypothesis was right in its own way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Originally, a holy sword is made by using [purification] on a sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The holy sword Granvalka was created when [Purification] was applied to the Zantetsu Sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, even if you applied [Purification] to a sword of the sky, it did not turn into a holy sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, I had thought that the sword of Kuuzetsu would never become a holy sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I was wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By using [Sanctuary] instead of [Purification], a new change was born.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The previously invisible blade of the sword is now illuminated with a dazzling light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A sword of light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A sword that gives peace of mind to those who see it, and at the same time, for immortals, a pure sword that purifies the defilement and keeps away even the magical power of the king of immortals.

　Seeing the sword that transformed the sword-shaped space itself into a sanctuary, Nadja was clearly upset.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nadja had just escaped from the range of the sanctuary and launched a ranged attack, which was nothing more than proof that the sanctuary was effective against Nadja.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This sword of light is definitely effective against Nadja.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's over, Nadja."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I mutter to Nadja as I regain my grip on the sword of light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was not a signal to fight back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was purely a sign of the end.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nadja is strong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She possesses overwhelming magical power, and while she spreads an unholy magic that no one can approach, she also possesses magic that can be used to attack from a distance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Naja's fighting skills were not that high.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She can fight better than the apostles of God.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, she was originally just a baggage carrier in the labyrinth town, and probably fought with the power of the many magic spells she had collected in her later years as a mercenary.

　Perhaps because of this, he was only a hair short of an ordinary man when it came to fighting with a sword against an opponent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Such moves would not work on me, who had fought on many battlefields and risked my life in repeated mock battles with my brother Byte since I was a child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Naja gripped the sword of light, stepped forward with great force, and swung it down in an overhand slash that she could not even avoid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And the blow from the sword reached Nadja's body, unharmed and unbroken by the unholy magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a thud, the sword slices through Nadja's torso.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nadja puts her hand on the large laceration on her torso and then falls to the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Only then does she finally realize that she has been cut.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She reaches out her right hand to me as if to ask for help.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"There you go, you're done ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it never seemed to beg for its life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For there was magic in his outstretched arm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　An enormous amount of magical power was concentrated in his hands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is not often that magic uses this much magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is about to invoke the "Light of Judgment" even though he is being fatally attacked.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But that great magic was never unleashed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because I swung the sword of light again and cut off Nadja's arm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nadja's arm falls off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With that, the great magic that was about to be unleashed was canceled, and an enormous amount of magical power dissipated into thin air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, the threat of Nadja, who had destroyed the Holy City and plunged so many into terror, was gone.
