“Haa! We’ve just located the demonic sword saint Ray Grandori!”
“Sa here. We’ve just caught the witch of ruin Sasha Necron.”
“9 mbers of the demon king academy confird. We also have 9 people and are ready to attack!”
Diego’s ugly face distorted even more.
“Jergakanon and descendants of the hero Kanon gooo!! Now is the ti to show your power and courage!! Chaaaarge!!” (Diego)
I shoved my right hand into Diego again
“Did you think I’d let you go any further?” (Arnos)
“….Gofuu…..ga….” (Diego)
He grins and laughs while vomiting blood.
“I’ll avenge myself with this. Die mazoku.” (Diego)
Did he finish the magic activation already?
The holy water orb sends power to the magic formation that only has one purpose and that is in detonating the origins of the students.
The bodies of the students who ca close to Ray, Sasha and Misa were wrapped in the light of .
A violent explosion rings out from the origins scattered around the city. Even this temple is blown away.
Or it should have.
“…..Why…….?” (Diego)
Diego mutters in disbelief.
“Why hasn’t everything exploded…..!? Why!?” (Diego)
“It did take a bit of work but I’ve cast magic on the whole underwater city. I’ve stopped the ti of .” (Arnos)
That’s why I was late coming to help Misha. Making sure other people couldn’t use
“….Stopped….ti……..?” (Diego)
“Didn’t you hear when I said the sa attack won’t work on twice?” (Arnos)
Diego shook with a mixture of anger and hatred.
“This peace is very precious. I had planned on letting you live but now it seems it would be foolish to keep you alive.” (Arnos)
When I pulled my hand out Diego stumbled back a couple of steps.
Most of his power will be gone now.
“….If you want to kill then kill …..but…. I’ll revive again and again. If it doesn’t co true in this life then the next life and if it doesn’t co true in that one then the next one. No matter how many tis it takes I’ll never forget this grudge. Soday. I’ll eradicate all mazoku!!” (Diego)
“Did you think you had another life to use Diego?” (Arnos)
I open my right hand but what was in it could only be seen with demon eyes so I sent magic power to it and a faintly shining white ball appeared.
If you looked closely the white globe is connected to Diego by a thin thread of magic.
“Do you know what this is? It’s your origin.” (Arnos)
I draw a magic formation on the end of my right hand.
Origin Killer . When my right-hand goes through the formation my fingertips turn black.
“I cannot touch your origin. Even with magic, it’s very difficult to interfere with an origin, however, can directly touch an origin.” (Arnos)
I scratched the white ball with my fingertip.
“Agaaa….aaah… Agaaakyaaaaa……. Gugyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!” (Diego)
An intense and violent death scream rang out.
“Do you get it now? A pain that surpasses death itself is felt when your origin is hurt. Try to condense every possible pain in this world and it wouldn’t be enough to match this pain. Its the death of your next life, and the next one and so on into eternity. All your future reincarnations and deaths are packed into this one spot.” (Arnos)
I scratch it again.
“Agyuu, gyuhyuaaaaa, gubeheeeeeeeeeee!!!!” (Diego)
Shedding tears, snot, drooling and without regard for his appearance, Deigo screams like a beast.
“You said the fight of the hero Kanon. Is this how the hero academy defeats its enemies now? By suicide attacks?” (Arnos)
I pierce the origin with my fingertips.
Diegos eyes turn white and he issues a soundless scream.
“2000 years ago the hero Kanon had 7 origins. Even if an origin was erased as long as one remained that guy could revive again and again. It was the ultimate magic that the gods gave to you humans and only one person ever tried to use it both before and after. That was the hero Kanon.” (Arnos)
I was talking to Diego but his eyes had long gone vacant.
“And why was that? Because nobody was able to endure the pain of their origins being hurt over and over nor the death of one. Apart from that guy. He accepted it all. I reduced his origins over and over and he confronted again and again.” (Arnos)
“…St…….stop……stop…..it……….” (Diego)
I swung my finger down and slashed Diegos origin.
“Sto……… Gugyaaaa, gubufuuuuuogyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!” (Diego)
“Do you know the reason why?” (Arnos)
At the chipped away origin of Diego, I point my jet black fingertips.
“….Ah…ha…u..aa….enough…..stop…….” (Diego)
Diego is already in a state where he’s now crippled.
“It’s better to die than to sacrifice soone. That man seriously thought that. And he did. He continued to die over and over again. His origin was slashed again and again, burnt and destroyed and still, he fought for you humans. That is your hero. A real hero with courage who defeated the mazoku many tis. He was the true owner of courage.” (Arnos)
Even though he was my enemy I was proud of him and his resolution.
He always fought to protect sothing. Not once was he ever dominated by his greed.
And he was killed?
So other humans killed that man that kept sacrificing himself for them.
He would still resurrect but maybe it was enough to kill his heart?
“You say you are a reincarnation of Kanon so endure it. If you can do that then I’ll let you reincarnate and you can co after again in another life.” (Arnos)
“….Just…..enough….already…..aaah……ah…” (Diego)
I pierce right to the centre of the origin with my finger.
“Gugagagagagaga, gyahyuuu, gyfuaaaaaaaaaa!!!” (Deigo)
“What’s wrong Diego? Aren’t you a hero? Don’t cry out in that voice. Kanon will laugh at you.” (Arnos)
I look at his face with my demon eyes.
“….Ple…..” (Diego)
Deeper than despair and with a look like he was swallowed by the abyss Diego spoke.
“…..Please……..enough, forgive ….kill …….please end it…..” (Diego)
It was a begging voice.
All that resentnt and hatred was gone. All he wanted was a release from this pain.
“You are not the hero Kanon.” (Arnos)
With over my hand, I grip Diego’s origin and squeeze with all my might.
The white ball shattered into pieces.
Diegos body falls to the floor like a doll with all its strings cut.
He doesn’t move. Resurrection is impossible.
His origin is completely gone from this body.
“You were a man who didn’t understand anything, pretending to be Kanon. Now that man was truly strong.
(1) Reishinjin ans godlike spirit. Also, I have no idea where this sentence ca from. Diego used the term holy sword and Arnos brings out this Reishinjin sword term that hasn’t been ntioned before. I thought it might have been Deigo’s sword na but that was said to be Enhalle last chapter so no idea. Just roll with it I guess. I’ll reread it later when I’m less tired and see if I’ve missed sothing.
