Chapter 668

TENKEN 668 Departing from Lady Blue

「Fran. I’ve been waiting for you」

「Sierra?」

As we went through the main gate to leave Lady Blue, a boy appeared in front of us. It was Sierra, the boy who we hadn’t seen for the past few days.

He requested that we call him Sierra from now on, so neither Fran nor I would call him Romio.

「What’s the matter?」

「I thought I’d thank you again. Thanks for letting us off the hook」

Sierra then bowed his head as he said that.

When he revealed the identity of the magic sword Zelos Reed, Sierra promised Fran to let her do anything she wants to them once they had their revenge. (TLN: References ch 611)

That’s the reason why Fran let them go.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com

She still holds a grudge against Zelos Reed, but she doesn’t feel the same hatred with the Zelos Reed from the other timeline which is now in the form of a sword.

Rather, Fran feels sympathy for Sierra and does not want to fight him for the time being. She even decided to avoid a fight by telling them that the whole thing was not over yet as Zelyse from their timeline had escaped.

『Could it be, you have been waiting here to thank us?』

「I-it’s not like that. Well, it’s true that I’d like to thank you, but I also remembered something, so I thought I’d tell you about it」

『You remembered something?』

「Yeah, It’s something from the other side」

From the other side? In other words, it must be something that happened in the other timeline.

「What is it?」

「I once heard Oji-chan saying something before he becomes a sword, he heard a talk about the Fran from the other side saying that Master was a divine sword」

『Huh? The other me on that timeline was a divine sword?』

「Yeah」

What does that mean? How could the other me on the other side be a divine sword?

『Not a discarded Divine Sword?』

「Yes. Oji-chan also mentioned that it could use the Divine Sword Release」

Fran and Sierra then exchanged information about each other’s future actions.

In Sierra’s case, he’s going to see if there’s a way to enter the Kingdom of Raidos legally. At the same time, he will gather information about the damage caused by the undead in the area.

After all, the current wielder of the magic sword Zelyse, Nameless the Demi Lich, called itself the leader of the Black Skeleton Corps belonging to the Kingdom of Raidos.

In other words, there is a high possibility that it is leading an undead army and is making moves in the dark in various places.

In Fran’s case, her immediate destination is the royal capital of the Kingdom of Belios. It is likely that we will go directly to the continent of Gordisia from there.

So, while fulfilling Weena’s request, we will also go to see Trismegistus.

Also, our long-term goal is to break the curse of the entire black cat kin. Well, this will take a really long time though.

「The curse of the black cat kin?」

「Yup」

It seems that Sierra doesn’t know that information. Well, I guess that’s what you’d get for not being interested in things in the world. Fran then gives him a brief explanation about the curse.

「So you’re saying that the Black Cat kin must defeat the evil being with a threat level of S or higher?」

「It could also be the evil god’s kindred」

「Either way, it’s going to be a tough fight...」

「But I will definitely break the curse」

「Is that so...? I hope you can achieve your goal. I’m rooting for you too. If I ever find a strong black cat kin somewhere, I’ll make sure to let you know」

「Please do. I’ll help you find Zelyse too」

「Thanks」

With a final handshake, Sierra jumped on the horse that he had brought with him. It seemed to be a summoned animal. It was of a lower class, but it was a horse type. It looked like it could run pretty fast.

「Sierra, see you again」

「Yeah, see ya!」

Then, after watching Sierra leave, Fran jumped on Urushi’s back. Her face was filled with motivation.

「We should go too」

「Woof!」

『Yeah, you’re right』

「I can’t lose to the Sierra」

『Me too, I’m not going to lose to another intelligence weapon!』

「Nn!」
