With a shout of encouragement, he plunges his cane into the hole while being prodded by White. The cane stops when it is halfway in, but there is no change in the wall, and it is unlikely to go any further.

When I removed my hand from the cane stuck in the hole, the hard, dry skin of the cane fell off, and a shiny young sprout emerged from the tip of the cane. With a loud bang, the torches on either side of me lit up, and one by one they lit up as if they were following the corridor I had just walked along.

　The figure of a winged serpent appears on the wall of the dead end, which I thought was just a flat surface. The reliefs illuminated from below by the torchlight, combined with the cloister like a grotto temple, tickle my curiosity.

　The cane begins to creep up the wall with thin roots that glow strongly in places, and the young shoots transform into tender branches. The glowing roots quickly erode the wall, and when they reach the winged serpent relief, the branches and twigs all sprout glistening leaves that emit a dazzling light and disappear along with the wall.

　Beyond the place where the wall used to be, you enter it to find crumbling masonry, roots of trees swallowing it, and sharp objects like broken obsidian of various sizes.

The wall again as you go through the damp and a little chilly. In the middle of a rugged black wall of rock that looked as if it had been solidified by melting lava, there was a feather buried, though it was too large at first to be recognizable. I wondered if this stone was something else, or if this feather could not be burned (・・・・・・) by the heat (・・・・・・) of the lava, as I felt lava would burn it.

　Buried in the stone is a winged serpent, this time a real one, not a relief. I counted ten, but could not see the whole picture. This must be Kulkulkan. I have produced enough light to illuminate the upper part of the snake, but it is so large that the whole image cannot be seen unless I move a little away from the snake. The body of the snake in view is half buried in the rocks and entangled in the roots of trees. The roots seem to be growing again and tightening up Kulurkan's body, and black scales sometimes crack and fall off.

Bahamut's wedge looked painful, but it also looked quite painful when it was loosely tightened. Judging from the state of the wedge, it is likely that he, like Bahamut, did not agree to send power to seal the hole in the boundary when he was sealed. If he agreed to this, he should be free to some extent in the seal.

　Somewhere I heard a voice, probably Tasya. The ceiling was too high to see but it echoed well, broken scales trembling here and there. The tremors spread to the walls where Kulurkan had been sealed, and as soon as a small piece of debris fell, it was followed by a rattle of large rocks and pieces of scales that looked like wavy blades. I fly high into the air to avoid them.

It seems to have had the opposite effect, as the roots that bite into the scales split them apart, tearing them apart without regard to the blood that flows. As the rocks rattle and crumble and a cloud of dust obscures my vision, the fine shards of scales scatter over a wide area. With nowhere to avoid the attack, he hurriedly uses his sword to knock off the flying scales one after another. Some of them are only grazed, but relatively large pieces are lodged in his side, on his ribs, and on his thighs and knees. The barrage is thick, please stop it!

I'll make excuses. The shield of firm ground is not suitable for preventing such a series of attacks because of its limited number of times it can be used.

　Thanks to Kuroyoh's defense, there is almost no damage when he is hit by a small piece of shard, but he receives continuous damage of [laceration] and [poison] from a shard that has pierced him. Moreover, unlike the scales mentioned below, these shards are not poisonous but poisonous, and I wondered if they had Kulurkan's blood on them or something. The number of H! Neither medicine nor magic works because the shard, the source of the [laceration] and [poison], is still stuck in the body.

　For a moment, I thought about gouging out the pieces that I couldn't pull out and applying recovery, but I decided to just take a medicine that would have a continuous recovery effect. Even though I have a pain tolerance, gouging out my own flesh is not a fun thing to do. Sacred Magic level 40<> also heals continuously, but the wall of tone deafness stands in the way, so I can't use it. No, it may be normalized by the game's compensation, but I'd like to try it when I'm alone at least.

　When the dust settles to the extent that visibility is restored, the freed Krulkan appears. Most of the floating <> is gone, as if the debris had some sort of magic-destroying effect. Kulurkan's scales may repel magic - we observe the giant serpent with this in mind. Though free, it is a painful sight, wounds all over, and hardly liberating.

The effect is that the plant withers away from the enemy for a certain period of time until H!? and M! and M! for a certain period of time until it withers away. The target is not Krulkan but scorpion, and it works well against insect enemies. It sprouts and produces an orchid-like flower, but the parasitic root is quite nasty to look at, so it is not usually used. There are so many of them that they more than make up for the damage done by the medicine. Fortunately, it's dark enough that I don't have to worry about what's underneath.

　The disk that floats just above the ground stays there. I thought it was something for the enemy to attack, but it is not. Is it a scaffold for non-flyers to fight against Kulurkan? It occurs to me, but I don't have time to try it. I cut down the vulture that lunges at me and kick the air again, closing in on the now free Kulkulkan.

　The first blow he struck did not knock off the left wing, but it seems to have reduced its function, and it is now flying with a slight tilt. The shape of the wing suggests that it is not flying according to realistic logic, but there seems to be no doubt that its wings are capable of flight. However, since they are not a pair of wings, it is better to think of them as a way to take away maneuverability rather than to bring them down to the ground.

Fortunately, the shark is blocked by the and cannot reach you, but you feel a twinge of relief at not being able to move while the attack is imminent.
