97-97. A flash of the king




 He used his flight magic and tried to go to the evil dragon. It was then.

''You are still weaker than you were a thousand years ago.

 And a voice echoed throughout the imperial city.

 Von Bask floated in front of the evil dragon, and his body was covered in a miserable darkness.

''What's the matter, Von Bask. I told you to wait for me.''
Kakkakka, I made you a promise. How could I possibly keep my word?

 What the hell does this guy plan to do?

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

 The evil dragon lets out a yell.
 I see. So that's how it is.

 The evil dragon was in anguish and the darkness VonBusk was wearing gradually grew darker and darker.

The magic that was created a thousand years ago has been sealed by you. The magic that was created a thousand years ago has been locked away by you, but I am a slow learner. I would have given up a thousand years ago if this was the end of it.

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

''You fused with the evil dragon?

 The magic of fusing with demons and monsters to gain more power has existed for a thousand years.
 However, an ordinary user would never think of fusing with an evil dragon.
 And even if you did fuse with one, it was almost always because your will was controlled by the demon and you lost your ego.

 More.

''Kakka! An evil dragon is no match for you! But when the power of the Evil Dragon and the Demon God are combined? Shake with fear!

 A voice emanates from the evil dragon.
 Normally, he would have lost his will, but Von Busk is forcibly restraining it with his enormous magical power.
 That's what you'd expect from a demon god.

I'm sure you've been doing a pretty good job of it. It's a pretty good job. I've reviewed it.
I know, I know! You seem to be comfortable, but in your heart you are afraid of me. I wonder if you can beat me.
Me?

 There are some things you'll want to try in the future, you know.
 There is no reason to be afraid.

I'll wipe the slack from your face.

 Von Bask, who gained the body of an evil dragon.
 It is opened from its large mouth.

''Dark cannon.''

 
 It let out a roar and fired.
 It wasn't meant to hit me. It was fired against something farther behind it.

 The dark shells cut through the wind and grow louder and louder.
 And then the big mountain, which can be seen from the imperial capital, was hit there.

 An explosion.

''Whoa! What the hell happened?

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

 When the explosions eventually stopped.


''Ya, the mountain.......is gone!


 The first person to notice this was Marise.

 The direction Marise pointed to, there was a large mountain there earlier - but it had disappeared without a trace.

''Kaka! What do you think!

 Von Bask says proudly.

''I've even gained the power of an evil dragon, and it's easy for me to even lose a mountain. What do you think? Do you tremble at the power of this? It's your turn.

 Slowly, VonBusk's twin eyes, which had acquired the body of an evil dragon, turned to look at me.
 Even with just one eye, it's a size that would easily exceed the size of one person.
 You will be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

''Oh, it's over.......how do we fight this monster?''
The world is at risk of extinction from a single dragon but I sense another kind of magic in that dragon.
Mountain....gone....Cynthia, are you going to die...?

 It wasn't just Lara and the others.
 When I looked, all the people in the imperial capital looked up at Fongbasuk and began to pray in unison.

''Oh, please just save our lives...''
Are you saying that this is the end of the world?
Please ... help me ...

 Some of them kneeled and some of them spilled tears.

 Seeing this, von Busk seemed to enjoy

Everyone, worship me!

 Then he continued as if he were the ruler of the world.

''But this world has already retired! How do I know you're not serious? If I'm serious, I can destroy this city with a single shot! First, let the city be annihilated along with the heretics. You will be sacrificed to defeat the heretics!

 Von Busk's mouth is opened again.
 The words would not be a lie. VonBusk hasn't yet shown his true colors. If he gets serious, he could easily blow up an entire city.

"Lara.

 I stand in front of Lara and the others and continue.

'Marise, Cynthia, Avril and everyone else, don't worry about it. Instead of praying, instead of despairing, look at me. You don't have to worry about anything, you know.

 Dark Cannon.
 The cannonball from Von Bask fires from the previous one.
 This time it's five times ... no, ten times the size of the previous one.

Kurt......

 I heard three such cries as the dark cannon tried to hit me.
 But Lara, Marise, Cynthia and most of all VonBusk. What are you guys mistaken about?
 To begin with.....


What are you getting so worked up about that you can blow up an entire city?


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

''Nah........!

 And by squeezing it, the dark cannon disappeared.


Hmm, that was quite a bit of magic though. Just a little bit, but you put a burn on my right hand.

 I draw my magic sword from its sheath.
 Then I used my flying magic to rise to VonBusk.


''This body is finally getting used to it.


 I utter that while looking at von Busk.

''What do you mean by that?
You see, although my soul has adjusted to the body, it's been difficult to use this body I've reincarnated in. I couldn't get it to work, even if I wanted to.

 I raised my magic sword.
 The wind generated around the magic sword, which became the eye of the typhoon, and the magic power gradually gathered.
 This magic sword is good after all.
 Even if I put all of my magical power into it, it didn't break.

''In other words, you.......you.......
Yeah, so far it's just for fun.

 A thousand years ago. I couldn't have tried it on Von Busk.
 But in hindsight, it was all a mistake.
 By not stabbing him in the back then, we created a tragedy like Averill's.

 Then I won't show any mercy this time.


''A Flash of the King (Divine Roi).


 A thousand years ago, alone and oppressed as a heretic, I had tried to create that deadly magic.
 I had succeeded in developing it, but I was unable to test it.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of it.

Clench your teeth, O VonBusk, and let's see if you can grind your soul to a pulp. This time I'll crush your soul.

 VonBusk immediately tries to escape, but it's not going to happen.
 It's because I'm holding VonBusk's body down with restraining magic.

 That magic is simple and clear.
 It's a magic that puts magic power into the sword and cuts through space and dimensions.
 But because it's simple, it's powerful.
 The unadulterated magic attacked VonBusk.

 A flash.

''Guaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

 Von Bask screams.
 Von Bask's body was torn in half.

 But it doesn't stop there.
 The dimension is also torn apart, and a door to the speckled space is opened behind vonBusk.

'You said it, von Bask. That in some dimensions, the laws of this world are inaccessible.
You're not going to....
Yes.

 It's not enough to just kill this guy.
 Von Busk's body is sucked into the dimension.

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

 Moreover, Von Bask's body should be in excruciating pain from being slashed by the magic sword.
 As it was, he would live there for another thousand years.

 Von Bask, who had been cut by the magic sword and had lost almost all of his magical power, would not be able to escape from the dimension.
 Well, even if he had some magic power left, he would lock the door to this side, so he would never be able to leave.
 It can never be unlocked by anyone.

 This was the crime against Von Bask that had decimated the world's magical civilization for the past thousand years.

''You're saying that it was impossible to defeat the heretics in a thousand years! Even with all this power! You're telling me that you have yet to reach the heretics!
What are you talking about?

 After Von Bask was swallowed into the dimension and disappeared.
 I said to myself, "You can't reach me in a thousand years.

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