197 Episode 197 Battle in the Sanctuary

"This is the sanctuary where the magic tools were installed...."

Coming out of the village to the foothills of Mount Amatsukami, we came to a place called the sanctuary where the magic tools were installed.

The entrance to the sanctuary is more or less like the entrance to the mine, and the walls of the entrance are half filled with a mysterious red frame.

Maybe it's a symbol of Torii that can be built in a sacred place in this country.

"All right, let's go!

As you proceed to the back of the tunnel, you enter the large hall without spending so much time.

The decorative space was filled with intense magic, beneath which huge magic items sat.

"That's the magic item that protects this country from disasters."

Your voice leaks without thinking it's too huge.

The engineers of the ancient East were trying to protect this country by making such a big deal.

"Hayashi...."

When I returned to Yukinojo-san's voice, there were two familiar people beside the magic item.

It's Haru-sensei and the Magus.

"Hahaha, isn't it too late, Yukinojo?"

The two had a malicious smile on their face, and it was felt that the magic item was already under their control.

"Hayashi...."

Yukinojo-san stepped forward and talked to Haru-sensei.

"What did you take the key for?!

"What do you mean...? Not now. As I told you, it's for revenge. To the general who abandoned me, to everything that didn't save me. And you stole everything from me to taste despair!

Harumi looks at Yukinoji with hate.

It seems that Haru-sensei's aim is to avenge the country and Yukinoji.

"The magic tools are already at my disposal. At first, I weakened the magic tools. If you don't stop me soon, there will be disasters all over the country."

"Harumi, you're the main one!

"Hahahaha! Yes, I wanted to see that face! Your expression of astonishment and despair! But I told you. My name is not Harumi. It's springtime!

When Haru-sensei touches the magic item, the dark magic that would have been emitted from the magic item weakens.

Finally, the light was completely lost from the magic equipment, and at the same time, the magic sprayed again.

"Now the magic tools are completely disabled. Happy Snow Prime Minister. I've been waiting for you. To show you the moment when this country will be destroyed by irretrievable disaster!

The earth began to shake as if it were responding to those words, and cracks ran into the earth with roars like the beast's roar.

"Oh, my God!

The shake gradually increases, and parallax and earth and stone shards descend from the ceiling.

"Hey, if you stay like this, you'll be buried alive!

Apparently, the interior of the sanctuary was more fragile than we expected, and if it stays this way, it could collapse, as Liliera said.

"Activate the magic equipment immediately, Seung-seon! We're going to fall together! And once the magic tools are buried, they can't be activated again! Then you won't be able to use your magic tools to dominate this country!

Yukinojo-san is right. If you can't manipulate it, instead of using magic items to make people obey you, your life is at stake.

"Ha, I can't take your orders! You're the only ones in trouble."

"What is it!?"

"The magic tools are ready to listen to my orders, no matter where they are. In other words, once the magic tools are buried, even if you kill me, you won't be able to make a contract to become a new lord! And in a situation of constant disaster, even if you dig up the sanctuary, it's Sekiyama that will fall again! How many years will it take to get to the magic tools? How many people do you think will die by then?

The magician smiled at Haru-sensen's words.

Looks like the wisdom of the Magus.

It's just what the Wizard says. I don't know whether the wisdom is true or not.

Then this is.....

"You're still a samurai, taking your people hostage!

"That samurai put me in this position! Now, if you don't want to sacrifice your people any more, kneel down and beg for your life...."

But I activate magic without hearing the words until the end. [M]

Grand Calm!

"Mmm!?"

I was puzzled that Harumi and the others who thought they had been attacked would stand up, but nothing happened.

Yeah, nothing happens.

"The earthquake was quelled by my magic. Your ambitions are over!

"... no, what!?"

◆ Yukinojo ◆

"Hah!?"

"Bye, stupid! Stopping disasters with people!? Magic too!? Yes!

It was said that the disaster that was supposed to happen had been quelled by Lex's magic, and the clear ministers looked stunned.

I know, I'm surprised.

But thanks to you, I can fight with confidence.

"Now, that's your ambition! Quiet, get him!

When Mina and the others hold their weapons, Haruo also holds his sword.

"Wait, Mina!

But the rest will stop Mina and the others.

"Yukinojo?

"Please, Harumi, leave it to me."

Yes, I have to settle with Harumi.

This is the rest of my mission as a general.

"... you must take responsibility properly.

Mina, who asked for the rest of the favor, went on a small tour, but eventually accepted without asking anything.

What a good woman.

Care to speak up and sometimes stand up for us without cowardice as a son of a general.

I'm sure the rest is attracted to her.

"... thank you."

But now, in battle, we can't afford to be distracted by extraneous things.

Immediately after switching consciousness, the rest poked the sword that had lost the Tsubaki toward Qingchen.

Hayashi! Duel!

"Huh, what?

When she was upset, she suddenly applied for a duel and her eyebrows lurked.

Fight the rest, Harumi.

"What are you... saying?

"You hate the rest, don't you? Then fight directly against the unnecessary without relying on magic tools! Fight and show them what you believe!

This is a bet.

To awaken the mind of Haruyoshi by fighting one-on-one!

"You've never beaten me before... that's good. They will take that challenge."

You're on! Hayato was also a samurai!

"If the rest wins, you'll get the magic key back! If the Lord wins, you will have the rest of your life or the General's seat!

What a shame! I'll make you regret this word!! "

Harumi smiles fiercely.

His face was filled with joy that he could crush it with strength.

But that's not gonna happen!

"Magus, I will kill Yukinojo. Do those Inhumans. Especially if that kid dies, there's no way to stop the disaster!

Clear minister also told the Magus that it was useless to pull out the sword and confront the rest.

But the battle never started.

"... no, you don't have to."

"What?"

It was the Magus who said the words.

"Even if I didn't take them seriously, I would have won!

That being said, a small jewel held by the Magus shines a strong light from the jewel.

"No!

Seeing it, Lex unusually raised his impatient voice.

At the same time, it explodes one after another from the magic equipment.

"Ha!?"

"I've been hit! I had a disposable explosive magic item in my magic item!

"Exactly! You think I didn't do anything and waited for you to come? I was setting up a blast magic item for this chance! No matter how defensive they are from the outside world, there's no way to protect themselves if they stop working!

The demon's destruction was immense, and the magic equipment was destroyed in vain.

"Ahh! Magic items!

Oh, my God! The great magic equipment that has protected our country.....

"Ki, what are you... ufu!?"

When Qingchen, who had been watered by the duel, tried to raise his voice of anger, his belly was pierced by a black iron arm.

"Ha, Haruuu!!"

Qingchen's body was pierced by the Magus, and he spasmed as he blew bright red blood.

Ha ha!

"Hahahahaha!! If you destroy even the magic tools, you can't stop the disaster anymore! Kid, I was surprised by your magic, but how can it be temporarily sealed off by magic outside that standard? It's impossible to keep calming the disaster forever! That's why all the humans in this country have created this huge magic item!!"

◆

Oh, my God. The Magus betrayed Harumi and destroyed the Magic Items.

The Magus' aim was not to take the magic tools from the start, but to destroy them!

"You, Haru-san, you're one of us!

Mina reveals her anger at the Magus, but where does the Magus blow?

He seemed to be enjoying Mina's happy anger.

"Yeah, that's right. It was worthwhile trying to defeat the boundaries of this land and gain control of magic items."

"Are you in trouble? What does that mean...?

"Maybe the Togo family rebelled...!

"Do you understand? That's right, I'm the one who brought magic items into the Tokyo clan!

"Ha!? The rebellion of the Togoku family is the devil's trick!?"

I knew it. I thought it was crazy.

Because the Togo family who had won the political war in such a favorable situation had no advantage in waging a rebellion on purpose.

"And I passed the information to the Shogun, looking at the time when the general's son was born. Thanks to him, the general mistook the Togo family for rebellion and destroyed the Togo family. Leave me only one son."

"Aren't you going to kill my family...?

Hearing about the shock, Haru-sensei was surprised to distort his face.

"That's right. Besides, I should have made sure you were pushed into that house. Thanks to you, you grew up feeling good and resenting the world. Don't hesitate to join hands with me, the enemy of mankind!

"Outsideways....!

Megli distorted her face without hiding her discomfort.

"Hahahaha! But I kept my promise. I can't promise to help you lose this country!

When the Magus pulls out his belly-penetrating hand, Harumi falls to the ground.

"You!"

"Oops."

When Liliera and Megli are cut by the Magus, the Magus falls back with a light body that looks like a smile.

Hanshin! Hang in there, Hanshin!

Yukinojo-san leans on the fallen Haru-sensei.

"I will cure you!

Norb, who returned to me, hurried into Harumi's treatment.

"Kh, it's deep! But I promise!

I'd like to help with the treatment, too... but there are some things I have to do now that need to be prioritized.

"Guys, I'm going to fix the magic item, so I need a Magus! Mr. Norb, use this potion to help heal!

"Leave it to me!

"Yeah, I'm gonna blow you up!

"I can't forgive you for betraying your people."

"Thank you, Mr. Lex!

Everyone I instructed stood between me and the Magus.

"You're going to fix a magic item!? Do you want me to imitate it?

The Magus concentrated the usual red and black magic light in his hand, but Mina's magic exploded before that.

"I won't let you get in my way! Lightning Bunker!"

That's the magic I taught you the other day.

High-density magic can easily penetrate even the body of a Magus!

Hmm.

However, the Magus didn't even try to avoid Mina's magic and took it from him.

At that moment, the Magus armor's chest opened and a huge, bright red eyeball appeared.

"That's it!

And when the magic hit the creepy eyeballs, how could it be sucked into the eyeballs?

"Ha!? Magic!?"

"Fufufufu, fuhahahahaha!!"

The Magus laughs happily.

"Surprised you're human! This is the power of my Lost Items!

"I can't believe he's got a Lost Item all over his body!?"

"Exactly! I've watched your battle to defeat my people! This is a magic encapsulation gear to disable your magic!

"Sealed Devil Gear!?"

"Fuhahahaha! If the magic is sealed, it's just a fragile mass of meat, like humans! But I will not be as alarmed as my compatriots. The Lost Items will strengthen your flesh to the limit and ensure you are destroyed!

"Now, it's our turn! Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra!!"

No, the Magus is going to seal everyone's magic and destroy us all.

If the powerful Magus strengthens his flesh with the power of magic items, it is a considerable threat.

I need to fix my magic items and join the fight!

"But the magic item is badly damaged and this will take time to repair."

The location where the Magus installed the Blast Magic Item was rather lewd and accurately destroyed an important part of the Magic Item.

"Can you repair it without the blueprints? I have to make it from scratch, but I don't have time for that."

If the disaster spreads like this, this country will be ruined first.

Now my magic is still sedating the land, but as the Magus said, this magic is only for emergency evacuation and won't last long.

"Then....!

I will never change the direction of my work. [M]

"If complete repairs are impossible, divert the wreckage of this magic item to create a magic item to temporarily sedate the land! This will allow us a few days to defeat the Magus and repair it again with the Emperor! Above all, it won't take much time to create a ceremony!

Immediately remove the necessary materials from the magic bag and process them.

Further, the procedure proceeds simultaneously while cutting out the parts.

It gets a little rough at work, but it should be healed later.

"All right, let's set up the ceremony here... and finish! Move it!"

Launch Magic Items with Magic Modifications that cannot be repaired.

As the magic item emitted dull light and the surgical circuit that remained bare started to move, the sway in the tunnel subsided.

"All right, I got it! And then the Magus... is that it?

I hurried to get everyone's backup, but I rounded my eyes to the unexpected scene that was unfolding there.
