330 Lesson 326 Queen Noel's Regrets

◇Noel Artena Highland's Recollections◇

It's been a turbulent day since she became Queen of the Sun Country (Highland), the largest nation on the continent.

The resurrection of the Great Demon King and the strengthening of his army toward that end.

The reconstruction of the country of the moon (Raphylloig) and the skirmish with Japan.

Coordination among countries as the allies of the seven continents.

And build a great barrier to prepare for battle against the Great Demon King.

All of them were tough.

But with that, I was able to defeat the Great Demon King.

And then, I married Lyowski, the second-generation light hero and my husband, who is said to be the rebirth of the savior Abel.

Maybe that was the brightest time of my life.

But I failed.

Even if the Great Demon King could be defeated, the witch who had taken over the power could not be defeated.

The Great Barrier I prepared to prevent the Great Demon King's attack was used by the Witch of Disaster.

The world was enchanted by the curse of the witch, and all the people were fascinated.

While I was trapped underground, the people of the Land of the Sun were already in the hands of the witches.

... I can't do it anymore.

When I gave up, I was helped by Master Makoto Takatsuki, who was not as fascinated as I was.

And he escaped to a remote island where the witch's curse had not yet arrived, a long way from the continent.

Then I looked around for help and contacted various places.

The result... was by no means good.

The faces of me and the people around me were getting darker day by day.

Some people were desperate and helpless.

Even so, Makoto was the only one who continued to take control of the submarine temple.

The face was not pessimistic.

It looked more forward than anyone else here.

... oh, Ryowski is right.

Makoto Takatsuki wouldn't give up at any time.

I'm glad this man is with us.

I must have been heartbroken by myself.

If we don't find a way to save this world and fall into the hands of the Witch of Disaster.

I will surely be imprisoned and locked in the basement again, or I will be killed.

However, Makoto, who is thought of as the [Moon Shrine Maiden (Furiae)], who is the descendant of the witch of the disaster, will not be treated badly.

And yet you keep us company all the time.

Then I decided to fight it to the end.

I thought I'd run to the end of the world, but I'd run to the end.

"But..."

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

"Hah!?"

A bass explosion.

I woke up to the sound of something gigantic bumping into each other and the trembling of the air.

Nyal-sama? What was that noise?

Ah, the moon falling must have caught the Divine Beast Leviathan in the face.

“Great, you caught me safely.”

”Fufu... the moon is suddenly falling and Leviathan must be confused”

But then, you have to hurry, right?

Huh? I've been trying to magically disrupt the orbit of the moon for a while, so I can buy you some time.

Oh, Nyal-sama.

Fufufufu, that's right, you can praise me even more

Unintended words pop out of my mouth in words like Makoto-sama's public talk.

I'm talking about the Moon Goddess (Nia) who came down on my body.

The content of the conversation was too bumpy and didn't get into my head at all.

"... sorry, I've lost my mind again"

I apologize for my flustered head.

Are you all right, Master Noel?

Makoto looked into my face worryingly.

"Yes....."

Even though I replied, I still felt like I was in a dream.

The cause of my unconsciousness... "

"Takatsuki Makoto! This armor is amazing!" Is Cain wearing such an artifact? "

The voice of the King of Ancient Dragons was heard.

I'll just lend it to you, so thank Lord Noah afterwards.

"Hmm! That's right!" Let's thank Goddess Noah! "

Makoto-sama... he's the Demon King Ashtarot, isn't he?

It looked very familiar to me.

Makoto-sama, how long have I been out of my mind?

"It's only about a minute." I just gave Cain's armor to the ancient dragon king. It looks like you'll be helping us take control of the submarine shrine together. "

That's what I'm saying.

"Ah, um... you're going to challenge me..."

With a shivering voice, I pointed to something like a giant wall protruding from the sea.

It penetrates the clouds like the "Heavenly Tower" that runs to the heavens seen on the southern continent, and its breadth is too huge to see the edge.

Besides...... the horrible thing is that the huge wall is moving slowly, but (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...)

- Divine Beast Leviathan

It was a legend I had only heard of in mythology.

We can't waste the precious opportunity that Nyal-sama has made for us.

Makoto answered with a face that had no doubts.

"Oh, is that so..."

and I only uttered a word.

"By the way, I have a request for Queen Noel." It's about the strategy of attacking the submarine temple.

"... eh?"

Her body trembled as she twitched.

The other day, I dived with Master Makoto to the [Deep Sea Wound (Deep Scar)], but I didn't think it was so horrible.

Makoto's goal was to conquer the submarine shrine.

It was to unseal the goddess Noah and save the world from the curse of the witch of disaster.

I would have done anything to help.

(...... but)

I look around again.

The moon that is falling.

A Divine Beast that appeared on the earth.

And the most powerful demon king in front of me.

(No, what are you asking me to do...?)

I became frightened.

"I-If I can do anything..."

"Thank you, Master Noel." I think it's time for Deer to come back. "

"Hah, hah..."

Dia-san is the name of the Great Spirit of the Water that Makoto often talks about.

"My king, you are back."

"Welcome back, Dia. How's the head and tail?"

“Come here. Everyone was happy to come.”

- Sung.

and the ambient temperature dropped.

And you notice the cause.

”Hee!”

I want to scream and praise myself for not losing my temper.

I guess it was because I saw the Divine Beast and the Demon King up close.

I'm not happy at all.

Thank you all for coming!

Makoto shouted with a smile --- As far as he could see, there were so many great spirits of water filling the island.

The number seemed to be as many as millions as when all the armies of the Sunland were gathered together.

"You've gathered a lot." All the spirits of the water on this planet... no, they're not. Takatsuki Makoto, where did these great spirits come from? "

The ancient dragon king asked Makoto-sama.

"It's from the neighboring stars." I don't think one of these stars will be enough for Leviathan. ”

”Don't be ridiculous... look, the sea is raging because I'm calling so many spirits of water”

The words of Makoto, who said something outrageous, and the dazed voice of the demon king looked towards the sea, and there was a sea that was rough with high waves that I had never seen before.

"But I don't know if this number is enough... Dear." It's still going to increase, isn't it? "

"Yes, my king, the great spirits of the water are gathered on this planet one after another." The Spirits are coming from anywhere to save the goddess Noah. "

"Hahaha! Hey, knight! Let's get more and more!"

From my mouth, Nia-sama talks happily.

"Nevertheless....."

The King of Ancient Dragons snorted in a slightly grumpy voice.

"Even though there is a demon king and so many great spirits of water, the god beast Leviathan doesn't care about this..."

"Just because you didn't look at us, you know we do."

And Makoto answered the words of the king of the ancient dragons.

I looked up at the sky.

... I'm dizzy.

At some point, the clouds cleared and I saw the head of the Divine Beast Leviathan and the moon that was touching it.

It's like the end of the world.

In addition, the spirits of the water are gathering on this island one after another.

Even though the sky is clear, the sea is as rough as a storm.

I was afraid that the island would soon be swallowed up by the waves.

Noel-sama.

Yes, yes!

Makoto-sama spoke in a serious voice.

"Could you use the [Song of the March of Victory], which is the skill of the Saintess?"

"Is that... to Makoto-sama?"

The skill I acquired when I became a saintess - "The March of Victory."

This is an auxiliary magic that temporarily greatly increases the health and magic of allies thanks to the protection of the Sun Goddess.

That might not seem like such a strong skill.

However, unlike normal auxiliary magic, the "March of Victories" has an upper (...) limit of (...) (...) (...) (...) (...).

Therefore, it had the advantage that it could be applied to all the armies of the sun country.

But....

"[The March of Victory] is a magic that is truly valuable to many people. Makoto-sama, even if I call you alone....."

It's okay, I'll relay it (hub) and give the spirits of the water the effect of the marching song of victory.

"Oh, can you do that!?"

I shouted in amazement.

"Speaking of which, you did that a thousand years ago...... I remember a terrible memory"

Anna was able to use the same skills.

In a conversation between the King of the Ancient Dragons and Lord Makoto, I learned that he had done it in the past.

Moreover, it seems that Anna-sama, the legendary saintess, was doing it.

"Well then, I'll use my skills on Makoto-sama..."

I held Makoto's hand.

― ― Sun Magic · Song of Victory March

When I activate the magic as I pray, the white light envelops Makoto's body.

The next moment, a violent magic force was generated that stopped my breath.

The spirits of the water gathered around the island shine.

Even the Great Spirit, each of whom possessed tremendous magic power, gained even more magic power.

Indeed, the effect of the marching song of victory rests on the great spirits of the water.

"That's pretty good. Isn't he more powerful than Anna, my king?"

I see. Noel-sama's magic is more effective at ascending.

Is that so?

I was surprised because I thought that I was inferior to Anna-sama.

"Anna was training her brave skills." It seems that the Saintess was not good at her abilities. Since Noel-sama is a saintess, it's highly effective. "

"I'm afraid..."

When I was having such a chat.

- Zusin.

and his body suddenly became heavier.

"Ah!?"

Suddenly, I realized that I had been attacked by a feeling of intimidation (pressure) that prevented me from breathing.

Oh, oh, oh, is Noel-chan okay?

When the goddess of the moon called out, her body softly lightened.

What the hell was that...? When I looked around, the Ancient Dragon King frowned, and there were many water spirits on their knees.

Makoto was the only one who seemed to have nothing to do with it.

Makoto looked up at the sky in a daze.

"Ayaa, I... I'm looking at you."

Makoto-sama snorted.

I didn't even have to think... what the hell is going on?

─ ― The giant eyes of the Divine Beast Leviathan looked down at us.

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

My legs tremble and I can't stand.

... I'm just being watched.

"That's good, Ancient Dragon King." Leviathan cares about us. "

Makoto is the only one who talks in the same way as usual.

Gradually, I got scared of him.

"... it's the first time I've felt fear just because I've been gazed at." It's been a difficult experience. "

Demon King Ashtarot laughed unstoppably, but a cold sweat was flowing down his face.

"The lava is Noel-sama's magic." The great spirits of the water have been greatly strengthened. "

Makoto is happily looking at the great armies of the great spirits of the water.

"However, there are too many spirits gathered on this planet." If we stay like this, this island will sink, and it will affect other continents as well. "

It was my mouth that uttered this word, but the Lord of words is the Goddess of the Moon.

If you look at the ocean again, the waves are higher than Highland Castle.

Now, when you leave the ship, you will be swallowed by the waves while it blinks and become an ocean turtle.

"That's embarrassing..."

"Shall I instruct my king and some sisters to put the sea down?"

"Is that the only way?" If possible, I don't want to disperse my forces.

I listened to Master Makoto and Mr. Dia's conversation blurry.

- Boy, let's take care of the sea.

Huh?

When we noticed it, a seven-color giant stood near us.

At first glance, it looked like a monster, a cannibal giant, but the sense of intimidation emanating from its body was wrong.

There was even a sacred atmosphere.

... what is this giant?

”Hmm... this is surprising that the Titans, the losers of the Divine Realm War, are wandering around this place.”

The first one to react was the goddess of the moon.

The seven-colored giant looks down at me.

"Are you... Nia-sama?" It's unusual to be descended on the earth. "

"Fufufu... there's no reason not to see such an interesting spectacle in a special seat, is there?"

"I see... as always, you don't seem to have any interesting eyes." The divine beast Leviathan appears on the earth, and the great spirits of the water are gathered on this planet...... If you come in a hurry, it was the boy of Noah's Lady's Apostle. "

Having said that, the giant turned his gaze to Makoto-sama.

It's been a long time since you were a giant god.

"I thought I saw you recently..." I've been planning to save Miss Noah for tens of thousands of years, but I didn't expect to do this in just a few years... "

“Is it true that you manage the ocean more than that?”

"Ahh... I wouldn't be able to put my hands on the ground of the god tribe, but if Leviathan and the spirits of the water bumped into me like this, all the islands around here would be swallowed up by the sea." I don't think the Holy God Clan can do that either. I will help you so that no extra lives are taken. "

It's helpful.

"I want the boy to focus on helping Miss Noah."... but is there a chance of winning? I can't help you in the fight against Leviathan. "

"I know." If I can concentrate on you, that's all I appreciate. "

Makoto-sama was talking to the seven-colored giants, who were exuding a terrible sense of intimidation.

Um... Makoto-sama? Do you know this giant?

"Oh, I'm sorry, Master Noel." This is the family of the goddess Noah, who was recently awakened by the Holy God Clan about 15 million years ago during the Gigantomachia Divine World War.... did you tell me your name? "

"You don't name yourself, and it's better not to know. I am the forgotten God."

"...... is it God...?"

I can hear my voice.

When it comes to 15 million years, in mythology, the last Divine War is said to have taken place.

Usually, I laugh at jokes, but in the current situation, I feel common sense is more wrong.

It's not a joke in the first place.

In other words... I wonder if there is a god in front of me who was defeated in the Mythical Era.

No, I can't.

My head is about to explode.

... I don't think I can keep up with the story.

Is it time to head out?

The ancient dragon king asks Makoto-sama.

"Yeah, let's go, Dear."

"Yeah... but..."

The Great Spirit of the Water glanced at me.

Well, do you have something to say to me?

"What is it, Mr. Deer?"

"The great spirits of the water are still gathering." If possible, I'd like you to keep playing "The March of Victory", but is it difficult? "

I was told that, and I couldn't understand the content for a moment.

My ability as a saintly lady, the "March of Victory", cannot be used directly by the Great Spirit of Water.

In order to be effective, Makoto-sama needs to be the relay point (hub), that is.....

"W-What do you want me to do with Master Makoto against Leviathan!?"

His voice turned around.

And I looked up at the sky.

Leviathan's eyeballs, larger than Highland Castle, quietly look down on us.

"Ah, are you going to challenge me too...?"

"I-I-I..."

"Hey, Deer, don't be ridiculous. She's the queen."

"The Great Spirit of the Water, isn't that difficult?"

Before I could answer, Master Makoto and the Ancient Dragon King denied Dia's opinion.

The Demon King worried me.

"I see... I'm sorry." It was stupid. "

Diaz nods.

You said you were worried and made a suggestion, right?

Makoto-sama is putting his hands on the head of the great spirits of the water.

Makoto seems to have left me on this island.

The sea is desolate, but it seems that our giant god will protect the island.

"That's why I can keep an eye on you here..."

Makoto challenged Leviathan to manage a world cursed by a witch of disaster.

As the last remaining hero in the world.

Is it really good for me, the Holy Maiden, to just look at it from a distance?

I heard that Anna-sama fought with Makoto-sama a thousand years ago.

And it seems that my [Victory Marching Song] is more powerful than Anna's.

Then it should be Makoto's power to continue using that magic together.

"Ugh!"

A voice came out of my mouth unexpectedly.

I'll go with you!

With those words, Makoto's eyes widened.

"... I'm going to challenge him?" Are you all right? "

Makoto looked up to the moon, which of course was about to fall to the ground, and the Leviathan who supported it.

... no matter how many times I see it, I don't think it's a sight from this world.

"But I'll do my best"

I answered with a trembling voice.

Makoto is scratching his face with a troubled face.

"Well, isn't that a good idea?" He said he would come. "Ride me."

The King of the Ancient Dragon turned into a giant Black Dragon.

To my surprise, the black armor that was coming changed its shape to match the dragon's figure.

"That's the goddess's artifact..."

"Well then, shall we go?" You can't get off on the way? ”

With a mischievous face, Lord Makoto pulled my hand and I rode on the back of the Ancient Dragon King.

"Boy, Miss Noah, please."

Leave it to me.

Makoto replied with a smile to the Giant God Clan.

Well then, let's go!

When I said that, the Ancient Dragon King rose all at once.

Acceleration makes it difficult to breathe for a moment.

Soon, the ground was far away.

Still, Leviathan's body, too gigantic, stretches upward like a wall.

The Ancient Dragon King continues to ascend.

The great spirits of a million waters follow.

A sight as if war were about to begin.

No, this was a more difficult test for God than war.

Takatsuki Makoto, do you have a plan?

The Ancient Dragon King asked.

I'm also curious.

Sophia said that Makoto-sama was pathologically prudent, so there must be a careful plan...

”Hmm? It's just a protrusion towards the submarine temple that you can see over there.”

…………

Did you hear that wrong?

I thought Makoto-sama said he was going to attack me... "

"Of course, I'll ask the great spirits of the water to do their best." I have to reach the submarine temple to unseal Lord Noah. I'm going to distract Leviathan, so I want you to dive into the submarine temple at the time I say, King of the Ancient Dragons. "

"...... I understand. My daughter said that Makoto Takatsuki is insane once in a while, but this is how it is."

"Rude."

While listening to Master Makoto's conversation with the King of Ancient Dragons, I almost felt dizzy.

We came together at a momentum... is that really good?

... the sun goddess (Altena), please protect us.

I could only pray to the goddess that my voice would not reach me.
