Chapter 454: Side: Ashwrath (II)

「There's nothing to regret! Divine Sword Release!」

With my words, the divine sword in my hand transformed its appearance into something vicious. The gate that had been holding back the tremendous power was opened.

「Gravity Prison!」

「Ghaaa!」

The magic resistance is so high that restraining magic is almost useless. So, it will be a slugfest.

「Oiiii! Youu!」

I was surprised. From the looks of it, she looks like she's completely out of control, but I didn't know she could speak in this state. However, what came out of the girl's mouth was a croaky, man-like voice.

Oh well. If it can buy time to get the others out of the way, I'll join her for a chat.

「What is it?」

「That's a divine sword, isn't it? It's not the fake one that that little black cat kid had! It's a real divine sword, right?」

「The kid from the Black Cat tribe? Is that Fran by any chance?」

「With that divine sword......we're......」

「Oi!」

「If we take in that divine sword......」

Just because she could talk didn't mean she was sane. Whenever the girl screamed, the broken sword in her hand began to emit a vicious magic. Apparently, the sword was controlling the girl?

「What are you?」

「I don't know! I wish I did! But I know! If we can get that divine sword, we'll be able to regain our original form! So, give me that divine sword!」

Her swords turned on me. But it's a good thing, too. This makes it easier to fight.

「It's time to get serious, huh?」

Almost all signs of people have disappeared from the area. It seems that there are still people inside the castle though...... It is true that I can fight more comfortably in the noble districts than in the commoner districts. It wouldn't hurt my heart even if I crush their house.

「Give me that sword!」

「Die, you bastard!」

With the girl's cry, the precept of gravity bursts forth from within. But still, a divine sword release? Was that magical sword a divine sword? No, the way it's broken, is it the same discarded divine sword as Master's?

Thanks to my relation with Alistair, I've heard a bit about the Divine Sword. There are six discarded divine swords that I know of.

The cherubim, meltdowns, and judgments that were ordered by God to be discarded have no chance of existing in this world. Even if they still have their outer bodies like masters, they would not have their original abilities.

So, is it more likely to be the Holy Order, Fanatics, or Eldorado, which were just destroyed by accident or in a battle between divine swords?

「God damn it! It's over! Why isn't everything working! It's been 40 years! Forty years we've been preparing for this!」

「Like I’d know!」

「A pseudo fanatics sword made by cutting and melting our swords, and a lineage of dragon maidens who can handle our most powerful skill, "Divine Dragon Transformation"! Why did a guy like you appear at time like this! Don't joke with meee!」

She was cornered and lost her temper. The sword was ranting and raving in an unseemly manner. Yes, the sword was talking.

The sword, which had been transformed by the Divine Sword Release, retained the broken part of the blade, but the hand cover had been enlarged to resemble a gauntlet covering the elbow. Numerous human masks were drawn on the surface of the gauntlet, giving it a strange air.

Then there is a sculpture of a man who has become so huge that he is almost as big as a human head, and he is screaming like a real person. The way its mouth and eyes move are no different from a human's.

「Did you orchestrate this coup d’état?」

「Hyahahaha! That's right! We caused it with Ashtner! But it had already failed!」

「What is your goal?」

「The divine sword of Philias, Diabolos! We're going to seize the capital and the king with our abilities, unite all the armies, and invade Philias at once! And we were going to take the divine sword!」

「......To fix you?」

「That's right! If only we had a divine sword made with Oricalchos......Besides, Diabolos was made by Dionysus, just like us! It's supposed to be highly compatible with us!」

I finally understand. This is the end of the fanatic sword Fanatics. It was destroyed by the Holy Order and lost its original ability, but it must have escaped without disappearing.

They are only trying to fix themselves, so they created this mess. Well, I guess they doesn't care how many people die.

The surprise was that it has a will, but it was less shocking thanks to the fact that I had met with master.

「If only you weren't here......Even if I have to die here, you're the only one I'll kill here! Not only that! The people in this royal capital will go with you! You'll all die!」

Is this the effect of the divine sword release? His sword blade begins to crumble into sand as if it is weathering. The Fanatics will soon collapse from that. Well, he showed his power as a divine sword in an incomplete state, that can't be helped.

「I'm gonna destroy you, and then I'm gonna end all of this!」

「I'll kill you right here for interfering with me!」
