272-Episode 31 "The Seventh Forbidden Gu"





 After destroying the wall with the eighth forbidden arm, a bizarre scene was revealed.

 A huge eight-armed demon with three heads and a group of orcs had gathered to block the doorway.

 The demons seemed to be baffled by my appearance.
 Confronting the swarm were Curie-san and Cecily-san.
 Cecily-san, with her back to me, said in a muffled, tearful voice.

''Gusu........If you're coming, please tell me you're coming.......''

 Her voice trembles a little.
 While confronting the demon, Currier-san puts her hand on Cecily-san's shoulder.

''I guess I'd better tell you what I want to tell you.

 Oh, thank God.
 The two of you are safe.
 A quick reunion.
 Feeling my strength rise even more, I moved in a single step to their side.
 I listen without taking my gaze off the crowd of demons.

''So this situation ... what happened?''
"Right after we split up, that big one came out from behind that wall over there, right after we split up with you. All the orcs around us were spat out by that three-headed thing, and it spawned. And Cecily, she hurt her leg in the fight.
I see. Looks like you did the right thing in a hurry.
What's happening with you? Those floating arms..................allies, right?

 I explained the circumstances as briefly as I could.

 In the room with the coat of arms painted on it was the same altar that I had found the Eighth Forbidden Curse on.

 Inside the altar box was also a spell document.
 A forbidden spell document.
 However, he didn't have the mental capacity to rejoice over the acquisition of the spell document.
 Getting back to the two of us as soon as possible is my top priority right now.
 After retrieving the spellbook, I quickly left the room and headed for the hole that leads to the top.
 I went up the hole for a while and arrived at some level.

 I read out the newly obtained spellbook there to see if there might be a forbidden spell that would help me escape.

 The seventh forbidden curse.

 A black sword appeared from the dimensional hole.
 But in my hands, it's a size that feels somewhat large.
 It seems difficult to use unless I hold it with both hands.
 But if you're in the arms of the eighth forbidden curse, it's pretty easy to hold with one hand.
 Hmm, depending on how you use it, it might be powerful.
 It's the kind of thing that can be used in places where you can't bring in a weapon, but you can bring in a weapon.

 Hm?
 Come to think of it, I think I said before that the King of Forbidden Spells summoning a black sword is the sixth forbidden spell........
 Is the seventh also a black sword summoning?

 ................

 Anyway, I don't feel that this seventh forbidden curse is useful for escape.

 For now, I'll try the second stage as well.
 The forbidden spell can use the second stage's ability if the number is also mastered one higher.
 It's called the second realm in the word of chanting.
 I've mastered the eighth incantation, so I can use it.

 --Second Realm, release.

 The first time I activated the second realm, I was surprised.
 I thought I was under attack.
 What happened?

 As if a dimensional hole had opened up, two thick arms, like Skolbanger's arms, appeared wetly.

 Black skin.
 A red-black pulse.
 It seems they are forbidden arms that can be manipulated at will.
 Let's call it the forbidden arm.
 After it was activated, my arm also had a reddish-black pulse.
 It's probably some kind of proof that the forbidden arm and I are connected.
 It's just like a convenient forbidden spell, but it's not a decisive factor for escape.
 Well, the world is not so well done.

 It's a good thing that the new forbidden spell was found there, but it can be said to have been done well.

 It wasn't the strongest forbidden spell, the first forbidden spell, but it was a good achievement.
 I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.
 It turned out that there were no stairs to the top.

 I decided to go with brute force.

 I'm sure it's not far from the level of the room where we were separated from Currier and his friends, judging by the sensations I felt when I fell and climbed up.

 I look up at the high ceiling.

''-- The eighth curse, the second realm is released.
Fifth curse, release.

 He rose with the wings of the fifth forbidden curse and destroyed the floor area with the arms of the eighth forbidden curse.
 It couldn't be helped.
 With force, we have no choice but to go.

 The seventh forbidding arm also participated in the work of destroying the floor and walls.
 Although it was not as powerful as the eighth arm, it worked well enough as an aid.
 Somewhere during the destruction process, I heard a disturbing sound.

 I found out later, but as far as Currier-san's explanation was concerned, that was probably the sound of those three heads destroying the wall.

 I think I was able to hear it thanks to my hearing being improved by the power of the forbidden host.
 I decided to go to the place where the sound came from for now.

''That's how I arrived at this room,''

 By the time I finished explaining, there were several orcs lying around us that had begun to dissolve.

 As we beat away the attacking orcs, we also assessed the situation for the two of them.

 The current problem seems to be those three heads first.
 If we don't defeat them, the number of Orcs will continue to increase........

''That regeneration ability is tricky.

 In fact, as soon as he entered the room, he blew the face off the center of the three heads with the third forbidden curse.

 But it regenerated at an amazing rate.

 When it was the large golem during the operation to defeat the giants, it won by blocking the holy element, the source of regenerative energy, with the Demon Eater.

 On the other hand, there was no sign of those three heads taking in the holy element.
 
 The Hecaton Cale in the mythology of the previous world was a giant with a hundred hands and fifty heads, I believe.
 So technically, though, I guess it's not.
 I don't even remember seeing an illustration with such a large belly....

 The exit is blocked by those three heads.
 Considering the number of Orcs that are densely packed together, it's slightly doubtful that they can break through this way and all three of them are safe.

''Do you think we'll be able to break through, Kurohiko?
Considering those numbers, it may not be safe.

 Mr. Cecily can't run with a broken leg.
 I'll carry him on my back and Mr. Currier will break through?
 No, would you rather have it the other way around?

''As long as we can take down those three heads, all we need to do is reduce the number of orcs.......''

 If the only enemy is Orcs, I think it's possible to break through.
 I guess the tricky part is those three heads.
 An attack with eight arms.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find it.

It's still that bizarre regeneration ability that's the bane of my existence...

 Cecily opened her mouth to say, um.

'I once called up some literature written about a three-headed dragon that had the ability to regenerate. It would regenerate no matter what it did, but if you cut off three heads of that dragon at the same time - it was able to defeat it without regenerating.
Oh, I see. Simultaneous destruction.

 Currier-san said, and cut the attacking guardian species orc in half.
 With one more swing, he slashes three more orcs.

I'm sure it's worth a try. The problem is that I need a three-point simultaneous attack that can reach those three heads....
Mr. Currier.

 I grabbed the orc's thrown spear with my left hand and threw it back and said.

'Can I leave you in charge of Cecily-san for a while?'

 Mr. Currier puts more holy elements into Revelgate.

''Oh, okay,''
Now, please.
Simultaneous destruction. Can you handle it by yourself?
We'll only get one chance to do it because of our aggression, but I'll do it.

 If you want a reliable attack, you need to mix in a third forbidden curse.
 However, due to the load, two shots is the maximum limit.
 I used the equivalent of one shot just now.
 Considering the number of times I risked going blind--

 Just one more hit.

"Kurohiko Su--

 Cecily, who was about to say something, reiterated.

'--please,'
Yeah, I'm on it.

 Maybe I tried to say "I'm sorry".
 But when he rephrased it and said "please", I was kind of happy.

 Because I felt that he saw me as a trustworthy and true friend.

"--The fifth curse, release.

 Two more wings are added.
 Another two huge wings grow out of the ground behind them.

 The appearance of the wings, which appear to have grown from the floor, frightens the orcs for a moment.

 I thrust the 《Crazy Cherry Blossom》 into the first wing I had put out.

 I made them suck the blood out of the wings - to increase their sharpness.

 The first two wings will be for blood sucking.
 The running pain is inevitable.
 Accept it.
 The pain won't go away.
 But you can endure it, you can embrace it.

 Each of your left and right cursed arms will hold a mace and a maul that belonged to a dead and molten orc.

 The two remaining hands.

 In your left hand, the Black Great Sword of the Seventh Forbidden Curse.
 In his right hand, the blood-sucking Mad Sakura.

 Wings, spread out.

 Together with the elbow jet of the eighth forbidden arm - acceleration.

 In less than a second, I approach the three-headed head.

 The orcs lagged slightly behind and looked up at me in flight.
 Then, after blurring for a few seconds, they moved towards where Currier and the others were, as if they were switching heads.
 There are also guardian species orcs mixed in.
 It would be a bone to take on that many alone.

 But I'm sure he'll be able to do it.

"Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiegggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!

 Three heads that scream like ripping silk.
 A skull-like, eyeless eye socket.

 The face in the center, staring at me.
 I can see it.

 This guy was able to react to my accelerated movement.
 I'm sure that breaking through with speed was impossible from the start.
 In short, the three-headed man is fast.

 The deafening three heads attacked me with the weapons that their eight arms clutched.

 I used my left and right forbidding arms to handle the attack by those eight arms.
 It's true that my basic abilities, such as muscle strength and speed, are high.

 But--if it's an attack from eight places without any "techniques" at all, two of my forbidden arms are enough to handle it!

'Guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh... guh.

 I was right in front of them, and their heads on either side of me howled and raged at the same time.

"I have sent forth my forbidden curse--

 Chanting, begin.


 Three heads, simultaneously.


 Swinging the big sword in her left hand over the left hand side of her head.
 The right-handed sword is swung over the right-hand side of the head.


 Then



"Third Abjuration, Release.
