162-162, like a god




Help me...!


 Lazevara jumped straight into my chest.
 Then she squeezed and hugged me like a lover.

'La Razebara!

 I called out to her, but she remained stony in her embrace and showed no sign of moving.
 The peachy scent of Lazevara tickled the bridge of my nose.

 
 But the feeling of Lazevara's skin on mine is very disturbing.

I'm not going to be able to get away from you for now, Razebara.
..........
I'm gonna listen to you. How can I talk to you unless you leave?
..........

 No matter how much I talk to her, there is no sign of an answer from Razebara.

 I'm in trouble........

 As I scratched my cheeks, wondering what's going on.

You haven't changed a bit since you were a thousand years old.

 He slowly pulled his face away from her.
 But our bodies were still close together, though.

'Nothing has changed? Oh, he's awake. Yes, I have regained my power from a thousand years ago...
That's not what I'm talking about.

 He denied it spitefully before he could finish saying it all.

'As usual - you have a weakness for girls.
What?
'When I hug you like this, you get upset right away. That kind of cuteness hasn't changed in a thousand years.

 Muggy.
 Once again, Lazevara buried her face in my chest.

'Hmm, this smell of you. It's been a while. It's kind of comforting.
No, stop!

 I took both of Razebara's shoulders and forced her to let go.
 I expected her to resist, but surprisingly, she obeyed immediately.

''Hmmm, I'll leave it at that.

 Razebara puts her hands behind her back and smiles a mischievous smile.

''Your little(-)cat(-) is upset with you. Did she get upset because she thought she was going to lose her owner?

 Kitten?
 ...Ha!

 I turned around to look back when I noticed the signs and there they were........

"Stay away from Kurt...!

 There was Cynthia, who was looking like a killer.

'Oh, come on, it's fine. It's just some light skin-to-skin contact.'
Cynthia didn't see it that way.

 Gogo.........
 Flames seemed to be burning between the two of them.

 Ummm.
 Maybe it was because I was upset because I was being held by Razebara, but I didn't notice this much killing spirit.
 I'm not quite there yet either.
 I have to fix this habit quickly.

''Well, be that as it may!

 I didn't think I could collect on the story at this point, so I forcefully changed the subject.

Lazevara. What is happening now? You don't have time for a fight with Cynthia, do you?

 I asked, and Razebara spun around to look at me.

'Yes, that's right. The power of the evil god Bagnuba is beginning to leak out.'
Oh....

 But wasn't Bagnuva sealed........is it a foolish question to ask?

 Did you read my thoughts?

'Just as Kurt thought. It's because I didn't seal it well enough. I thought I was supposed to last another year but this isn't working. I'm going to be unsealed any minute now.

 He gritted his teeth in frustration.

'For the most part, the dark clouds that covered King's Landing and the dragons that have appeared are part of the power of the Bagnuba that have begun to leak...'

 Lazevara nods his head in agreement with my guess.

'You're right. I never licked Bagnuba but I'm not quite there yet either. Still, I misjudged the power of Bagnuba.
No, I can't help it.

 To begin with, evil gods are not like ordinary beings.
 They are a different kind of existence from small things like Von Bask and Aurelian.
 Even with Razebara, it's no wonder that he misjudges his power.

 Besides..........

''Apparently, for the past thousand years. It seems that during the time it has been sealed away, Bagnuba has been increasing its power even more.''

 When I mentioned it, Lazevara rolled her eyes in surprise.

'Yeah, yeah. You're right. You're right, I can't believe you're reading that much into it.
Oh, man, who do you think I am?

 He hasn't just been sealed up for a thousand years....
 If you look at the magic that leaked out of Bagnuba, you can see the whole picture.

'Kurt. How much of Bagnuba's power that's leaking out right now is total?

 Cynthia asked anxiously.

'Well I'd say it's something like a hundredth of a percent at best.
Wow, one in a hundred?
What's up, Cynthia? You're unusually surprised for Cynthia.
Even Cynthia would be surprised.

 Cynthia puffs out her cheeks in a puffy manner.

''Because with just a hundredth of a percent of your power, you can summon a dragon or something?''
Yeah.
Isn't that a pretty powerful force...
What? Nothing to worry about.

 This is the truth.
 If I hadn't regained my full strength from a thousand years ago, or if I hadn't, I wouldn't have to worry about anything at all, not even Bagnuba.

All right, Lazevala. Well, Lazevala, let's get this Bagnuba out of here, shall we?
It's awfully light.
Of course.
'But I'm sorry Kurt, but Bagnuva's power is too strong right now. Even you don't know if you can win. That's why I didn't want Kurt and Bagnuba to meet.
'I told you. If you say you love peace, then I'll give you that wish too.
You said...

 Lazevara huffs and laughs.

'I'll break the seal completely,'

 Eventually, she tells him as if she's made up her mind.

'It may be a foolish question, but you're ready for it.
Hmm.
If you see any danger, run for your life. You are humanity's only hope for the whole world.
What, I'm gonna run?

 There is no way that such a situation could ever happen, even in the unlikely event that it did.
 Lazevara has a funny way of saying that.

'Then I'll go.

 As he said this, Lazevara placed his knees on the floor and crossed his hands.
 The magic circle, which was densely marked throughout the room, emitted light.

''That's an amazing magic circle...!

 Cynthia looks at it and is astonished.

 It's an elaborate magic circle.
 It must have been drawn by Lazevara, who has loved beauty and tried to protect peace for a thousand years, and who has spent a lot of time chipping away at his soul.
 I understand that.

"..........!

 Lazevara's face contorts in pain.
 No matter how much magic she created, it's extremely difficult to break this many seals. It may be painful.

 But.

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do that. I'll help you.

 Gently, he put his hand on her shoulder.

'We're almost there. Just break the seal and I'll take care of the rest.
Yeah.

 Razebara felt a quick loss of strength in her shoulders.


 The seal was lifted.


 That was the moment.
 Bagnuba's power leaked out and darkness covered the entire room.


'Well, Bagnuba. My power is far beyond you. A foolish god who can only destroy, should be completely destroyed here.
