"Hey, you did it, Ars."

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

"Bite-brother, are you all right?"

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

"Yeah, no problem. You fixed me. But that's great. What's with the shiny sword?

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

"You know what?　It's a sword of light I made on the spur of the moment while we were fighting. It is a divine weapon, in the style of the Bhutikas, that even the King of the Immortals would recognize."

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

"Divine artifact. That's a good thing you made that, Ars. Speaking of which, what happened to the world of the gods?　Did God survive?"

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

"Oh, yes. I'll have to explain that too. But first, let's clean up this mess.

"Hmm?　What, he's still alive? Shall I take care of him?　I owe you a debt for defiling my arm, so why not?"

"No, brother Bite. No, brother Bite. We can't lose Naja now. Let me handle it. Sanctuary."

　After I defeated Naja, my brother Byte came running to me.

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

　With words of gratitude, he suggests that I finish off Nadja, who is still not completely dead.

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

　But I stopped him.

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

　Then, I cast the "Sanctuary.

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

　I invoked the sanctuary around the wounded Nadja to contain her impure magic as she struggled to get up.

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

"Good. And now, the rest of you ice nymphs, come here! Lock Nadja in the ice."

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

　By invoking the sanctuary, Nadja's unholy magic is temporarily suppressed.

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

　He then summoned the ice nymphs, who had moved to a remote location out of fear of the unholy magic, and put Nadja on ice.

"What are you doing?"

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

This is how we once sealed the Immortal King in the Holy City. While suppressing the Immortal King's filth in the Sanctuary, the Fontana family's [Ice Spirit Summoning] seals him in ice.

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

"Wow, the Fontana family was involved in the sealing of the Immortal King. Well, that's not important. Why are they sealing Nadja?　Wouldn't it be better to get rid of him so there's no clean slate?"

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

"That's true. You're right, but that's a bit of a problem. If I beat Naja in a normal way, I will be weakened.

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

"Weakened?　If I defeat Naja, does that make Ars weaker?"

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

"Oh, it's a little different, isn't it?　Now I have enhanced magical power through Naja. I guess you're right, it's gone and I'm back to the way I was before. But if I do that, I won't be able to use [Divine Realm Transfer] and so on, and I won't be able to join up with Archbishop Paul and so on."

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

"I see. I see. So you want to use Nadja's power to keep her alive and not kill her.

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

That's what I'm talking about.

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

　Naja is down.

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

　That pretty much settles the matter.

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

　But that's only the front of the story.

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

　The repercussions of what Naja has done are great.

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

　She destroyed the Holy City, killed and wounded several noble houses and their nobles and knights, and even invaded the world of the gods.

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

　The most important point is that he completely crippled the church.

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

　He simultaneously eliminated all the people and things that had power in the church and made its system work.

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

　The atrocities committed by the Church against the woman Aisha in the past cannot be praised.

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

　But it is an undeniable fact that for many years the Church has been located all over the land and has continued to support the lives of the people.

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

　In some ways, it is an organization that has been much more useful than the royal house of Doren.

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

　The impact of the sudden disappearance of the core of this organization is too great.

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

　Especially once the know-how is lost, it may not be easy to restore it again.

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

　Well, even if that is not the case, it is not good that I cannot use the magic of [transfer to the Divine Realm], [sanctuary], or [purification] now.

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

　After all, even though I have defeated Naja, there are still a good number of those who were immortalized by Naja around me.

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

　They must be exterminated.

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

　Therefore, we have to postpone the end of Naja's life.

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

"Cu, cu."

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

　But there was one who put a stop to my train of thought.

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

　No, it wasn't a person.

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

　It was Valkyrie.

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

　The first Valkyrie I ever hatched from the egg of a beast.

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

　The Valkyrie that had carried me all the way to the Holy City came up to me as if to join in the conversation between me and my brother Byte and shouted out.

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

　What's wrong?

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

　Is there something you want to say?

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

　But even I can't understand exactly what Valkyrie sounds like.

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

　But it seems to be important, as she rubs her head against my body, glancing at the sealed Naja.

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

"............Oh, I see. I see what you mean. Okay, I get it. You can do it, Valkyrie."

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

"Cuey."

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

　I finally understood what Valkyrie meant when she looked at Nadja over and over again.

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

　So I ordered Valkyrie to do it.

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

　Valkyrie attacked Nadja, whom I had once sealed in ice.

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

　Nadja, who was already dying, was thawed out and her neck was broken by Valkyrie's foot.

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

　Nadja has become the king of the immortals, but it seems that she cannot live even as an immortal if her neck is broken.

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

"Oh, come on, Ars. I thought you said killing Naja would be bad..."

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

"Well, that's what I was thinking, too. I guess Valkyrie was smarter than me. Haven't you noticed?　Nadja's death won't change the amount of magic I have, will it?"

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

"Oh, really?　Why not?"

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

"[I] collected it. Nadja's power by Valkyrie."

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

　Looks like it worked.

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

　Valkyrie took down Nadja just now.

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

　That would normally weaken me.

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

　But Valkyrie solved it by [collecting].

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

　So, this is what happened.

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

　Nadja killed the hornless Valkyrie and collected her magic.

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

　The name of that magic is "Sharing.

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

　By connecting with the magic of the entire Valkyrie pack through this [Sharing], Nadja was able to use a great magic called [Light of Judgment].

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

　But [sharing] did not end with Nadja taking the Valkyrie's magic.

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

　As the name "sharing" implies, Valkyrie and Nadja were sharing their abilities and magic with each other.

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

　In other words, Valkyrie was able to use Nadja's skill, [Gathering].

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

　It seems that Valkyrie used it this time.

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

　When Nadja was defeated, Valkyrie used [Gathering] and captured all of Nadja's magic, her inheritance rights, or her magic pass.

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

　Therefore, the amount of magic Nadja had sent to me did not decrease even though Nadja was gone.

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

　This means that Nadja left this world in a state in which she could use magic such as [transfer to the Divine Realm].

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

"Thank you, Valkyrie. But your power has gone to shit, too. In the meantime, don't use dangerous magic except in self-defense unless you have my permission, okay?"

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

"Cuey!"

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

　Just a reminder to Valkyrie.

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

　Valkyrie is now the only beast in the world that can use the Light of Judgment.

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

　And there are quite a few of them.

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

　If I were to fight Valkyrie seriously, I will surely lose.

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

　It has become an incredibly dangerous existence.

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

　I don't want people to be afraid of Valkyries and persecute them.

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

　How about hiding the fact that he can use [Light of Judgment] and other magic, and pretend that he became a holy beast that can use [Purification] and [Sanctuary]?

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

　Yeah, that's a good idea.

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

　Let's do it.

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

　Thus, on this day when the Holy City was destroyed by immortals, the Valkyrie was born as a holy beast, a sacred beast capable of using the works of God.
