Weekly chapters (2/2)

Enjoy the chapter~

It was a dark and narrow passage. The floor was emitting a faint light.

I walked behind Autumn and the others.

[How much further are we going to walk?]

[We are almost there. This is a sacred place. Walk quietly.]

[Fate, let’s just follow him.]

[Yeah.]

I’m anxious. I wanted to run down this aisle at any mont.

I reigned it in and kept walking.

A light appeared from the other side. That must be the exit.

I felt Roxy’s magic power getting stronger.

No doubt. She is just ahead.

Here… brightly colored light poured down from the stained glass above.

The large hall was made of pure white marble, and the color was well represented.

I could feel the sacredness that Autumn was talking about.

There was a situation in front of that made such solemnity irrelevant.

[Roxy!!]

[What in the…]

Roxy, who had grown six wings, floated in the air as if sleeping.

Below her, a magic circle that I couldn’t understand shines.

I imdiately approached her and tried to wake her up, but I was blown away by the barrier released from the magic circle.

[Fate!]

Cecilia ran and helped get up.

That barrier was too powerful. I received an incredible amount of rejection just by touching it.

[Autumn, what did you do to her… to Roxy!?]

Autumn ignored my voice and bowed deeply to the man who ca out of the small room behind the floating Roxy.

The man was wearing pure white clerical clothes.

I’ll never forget that face.

[Libra!]

[Hello, there. It’s been a while.]

[You should’ve been dead…]

[You should’ve known better. You know best that you didn’t kill in that battle. After all, you have the Gluttony skill.]

I fought Libra in His land and defeated him at the cost of Greed suffering severe damage… The last blow should have killed him.

However, the Gluttony skill was not activated at that ti.

There is no mistake, as we all can see that Libra is here right in front of .

[I would like to have a touching reunion, but you don’t seem happy.]

[Why would I be happy?]

[Anyway, I’m tired of waiting. She was waiting for you too.]

Tired of waiting? What does that an?

There is sothing more important than that.

[What did you do to Roxy!?]

Even though we tried to kill each other so brutally, Libra’s face didn’t even change a single twitch as he said with a smile on his face.

[This is what she wanted. I just made that wish co true.]

[Roxy!]

I approached her again and called her na out loud…

[I think you should stop. If she wakes up, we’ll be in big trouble. She wouldn’t want that.]

[What do you an?]

[You should have already experienced it. The elf behind you…]

Libra fixed her gaze on Cecilia.

[My na is Cecilia.]

[Hello, Cecilia. I’m Libra. I was wondering what happened to the place where you lived.]

[We… we lost the Grand Wall…]

Cecilia didn’t seem to want to rember, so she stumbled over her words.

However, Libra proceeded to grin.

[My guess is that the beastkin turned into a monster and destroyed the city. And you are the only survivor?]

[…]

Seeing Cecilia lowering her eyes and looking down, Libra understood that he had read the situation correctly.

[Looks like there are others. I see, I see.]

[Libraaa!]

When I raised my voice, he turned to without paying any particular attention to it.

[Sorry, sorry. I’ve gotten off topic a little. In other words, the sa thing that happened with Cecilia happened at the High Elves Grand Wall.]

However, the beastkin outside had not been turned into monsters.

And if it has sothing to do with Roxy…

[Roxy has beco the new pillar of the Grand Wall, to protect the current high elves.]

[….why did it have to be Roxy?]

[That is because she has the power of a Sacred Beastkin within her. That alone is enough to support the Grand Wall. Although there are so restrictions.]

Libra said while looking at the sleeping figure of Roxy floating in the air above the magic circle.

[Don’t look at like that. I have no obligation to protect the high elves. But, she thought differently. Well, I guess she felt pity for the beastkin rather than the high elves.]

[So, Roxy is protecting this place…]

[That’s right. So, when she wakes up, the Grand Wall will disappear. In other words, it’s The End. I was supporting her to prevent that from happening. Roxy seed to believe it. She’s sure that you’ll co.]

Libra walked forward and slowly ca to my side.

[But, I never thought it would take 10 years…Where were you and what were you doing?]

[10 years…?]

[That’s right. Ten years have already passed since you and I fought in His land. It doesn’t seem like a long ti to , but from the way you look, I wonder if it’s been the sa.]

I grabbed the grinning Libra by the nape of my hand and lifted him up.

[I’ll leave it up to you whether you believe it or not. But, I’m not your enemy. I swear by the God inside of you. And if I were your enemy, I wouldn’t have helped Roxy, right?]

[What part of this is helping her!?]

[Do whatever you like, but please let go of this. The high elves are upset.]

Autumn and the others seed to worship Libra, even calling him a prophet.

And I’m manhandling soone in such a position.

I could feel their hostility towards .

It’s not a good idea to stir things up here. I slowly let go of Libra’s neck from my grip.

[That’s fine. We need to understand each other. I’m sure Roxy wants that too.]

[What do you know about this place?]

[This world where elves and beastkin live was an experintal plant before the creation of the Gallia continent. When the Gallia continent was completed, these islands were cut off and discarded because they were no longer needed.]

[Experintal plant?]

[We tried to make good use of the ancient power of this planet…the spirits. However, there were various problems. For example, when a spirit resides in one’s body, one could live a very long life, but they start having problems with their temperant. Unexpected things began to happen, such as monsters turning into beastn due to the influence of spirits.]

[Is that true?]

[When soone receives a spirit baptism, they lose their skills. We were trying to coexist, but it didn’t go well. That’s why we discarded the plant before its contamination spread.]

Libra left and started walking around the floating Roxy.

[I had no idea it still existed and was floating on the ocean. I was surprised, too.]

Libra said with a tone of disbelief.

[Why did you help?]

Even if it was Roxy’s wish, I don’t think Libra would lend his hand so easily.

[They want to return to their holand…the sacred land they call Gallia. Escape from the sinking island and return to their original holand.]

[What are you trying to say?]

[Skills and spirits…I wonder what would happen if these incompatible people collided in Gallia.]

[…You want to incite a war?]

[I want to see that. I’m sure it will lead to even greater heights.]

Libra seed to be having a lot of fun.

Then, he looked straight at .

[If many people die, this world will be filled with many souls. If that happens, the God sleeping within you will be awakened by this.]

He said while putting his index finger on my chest.

[You haven’t given up after all.]

[Ahaha, this is just my wish. It’s up to you, who has a God in your body, to decide what to do. Either way, the five islands have beco one and set sail for Gallia. Carrying a lot of seeds of conflict.]

The islands are moving towards Gallia!?

I can go ho… but do I want to bring along people such as these with ?

When I looked up, I saw a silent Roxy floating in the air.

I don’t even know if it’s been 10 years since the battle in His land, so what can I do?

When I thought about it, my head felt like it was being squeezed again.

Libra looked at challengingly.
