Salvation is a technique that reflects Teds agony to fight powerful demons with a human body.

However, Ted didnt develop it alone from start to finish.

If Ted is considered the father of Salvation, then Larz was its mother.

As a founding member of the Dawn Knights, she had been with Ted since their student days and had the most influence on the development and advancement of Salvation.

As a result, aspects of her magical traits or research findings were embedded throughout Salvation.

From the 3rd installment, there are some collaborative works.

We even made Flare together. I heard that it lacked destructive power to deal with large demons with exceptional regenerative abilities, so we researched that area a bit.

She told me about various aspects of Salvation that I hadnt known.

I had no choice but to listen to the story told by the original author.

Do you know what 4th form, Stellar Rift, is?

I nodded.

I may not know exactly how it works, but I know what it does.

When I trained with Ted in the Sanctuary, I even went into that place myself to see why I couldnt understand.

How should I put it?

Among Salvation techniques, Stellar Rift was the most magical.

It was completely different from martial techniques like strengthening swordsmanship or increasing speed.

To put it simply, its a technique that creates the users unique barrier. It shapes the individuals mental world into a tangible form and erodes reality with it.

It doesnt sound simple at all and it sounds very abstract.

Well, there is clearly a basis for it.

A basis?

Think about the demonic realm.

Larz continued to explain, her eyes sparkling.

The door opened, and energy called demonic energy that didnt exist in this world flowed into reality. Thus, mutations and erosion occurred, and the demonic realm, an unrealistic space, took root in this world. Stellar Rift was developed based on that concept.

Of course, no matter how vast Teds magical power was, it was impossible for him to penetrate and maintain his own mental image against this world.

Just as the body resists diseases, so does the world resist such infiltration.

So they resorted to a small trick.

Creating a separate dimension like a pocket realm.

It was possible with the help of Larz, who was proficient in spatial magic.

Its much easier than completely covering it up. It should be easy to understand if you have Valbers Key.

A separate dimension

It creates a separate space where the worlds resistance does not reach and dyes it with Teds color. In other words, Stellar Rift is

Larz carefully chose her words.

A technique that invites enemies to your own battlefield.

Most techniques are developed out of necessity.

The 1st form, Halo, was a key technique that strengthened the swordsmanship to deal with various forms of demons while allowing freedom to change its properties and shapes.

Nova, the 2nd form, was created to gain an advantage in chaotic battles.

The 3rd form, Flare, was for dealing with large demons or demons with exceptional regenerative abilities, as Larz mentioned.

So what was the need for the 4th form?

I could easily answer that.

The reason Ted created the Stellar Rift technique was for

Protection.

After separating terrifying enemies from his allies.

He fought alone on his own battlefield.

It couldnt be a more Ted-like technique.

Come on, Cult Leader.

I stood tall within the area created by Stellar Rift.

The endless expanse of the Arctic Ocean, the children and fishermen on the overturned ship, and even the ice and snow, all disappeared.

The space was filled only with white mist.

Whoo, whoo-

Beyond that, vague figures were quickly passing by, but it was difficult to identify them.

This is my Stellar Rift army.

It was a different form from Teds mental image, which was full of numerous Heros like statues.

Of course, even though the composition was different, its utility was not lacking.

This was a space solely permeated by my mana.

While inside here, I received positive adjustments in all aspects of combat.

Mana regeneration and physical recovery became faster, and duplication became easier.

The opposite would be true for enemies.

Shwoo-

I aimed Black Hope at Kalende, who stood in the center of the space like a statue.

When she was first brought here, she stood still like a statue.

Although she seemed to have lost her hostility at first glance, there was no room for complacency.

Lets end this here.

It was at that moment.

Aha

A faint laughter pierced my ears.

Shes laughing?

In the midst of the unexpected reaction, while hesitating.

Kalendes laughter grew louder and louder, resonating in the space until it echoed loudly.

Ahahaha!

She laughed, bending at the waist.

It was as if she found the current situation unbearably amusing.

Ahahaha-!

Her sharp and bright laughter, tinged with melancholy, continued without stopping.

Her strangely enlarged red pupils remained fixed on the Hero, never leaving.

* * *

Kalende met the Hero three times.

The first time they met was when the Demonic Churchs stronghold was being subjugated in the past.

The sight of him tearing them apart in the former Grand Masters residence was still vivid in memory.

It was shortly after she was created.

Because Kalende, who followed her creator like an absolute being, was shocked even more.

It wasnt sadness about loss.

Was I created by such an imperfect and weak being?

Even if humans dont believe in gods, they unconsciously believe that some absolute existence or law intervenes in their fate.

Thats why they can confidently face lifes absurdity and irrationality.

But what about her?

Humans are endlessly imperfect and inadequate. So how shallow and limited must I be, created by such humans?

The Hero was the catalyst.

She began to hate herself as a homunculus.

The next meeting was a few years later.

During the attack on the fairs auction house, Kalende was once again shocked by the Hero.

It was because she caught a glimpse of something hidden within him thanks to the penetrating Insight.

Naturally, she began to suspect that the Hero might not be human.

She was planning to blast with all her might, freezing the entire deck.

I have to suppress him all at once so he cant hide.

There were many people to protect.

There was Waldiff and Luke behind her, both injured, and the entrance to the hatch where non-combatants were hiding.

If they missed that demon, there would be casualties.

They couldnt afford that.

Ssshh-

It was the moment she was about to open her mouth.

Thud-

Okultus rushed fiercely.

From behind.

In other words, beyond the railing to the sea.

Perhaps he had regained some demonic energy during that time, as he succeeded in spreading the cloak of concealment.

Thanks to that, no one saw him falling into the sea.

Even the sound of the splash was muffled.

Not even a second passed, and he disappeared into the dark night sea.

No one expected him to flee, so everyone looked at his empty seat with puzzled expressions.

The few remaining demon officers of the Demon King were the same.

The children murmured.

Wow

Maybe demons are scared of dragons too.

Do we need to catch him?

How?

[Huh]

Breath lost its target.

But Cucullis mana control ability was too weak to swallow it back.

She hesitated, then aimed her breath at the demonic church executives standing firm on the ship.

Crackle-

The extreme cold danced on the deck, freezing everything in sight.

Cuculli shivered awkwardly on the deck, which had turned into a snow-covered wilderness after enduring three days and nights of snowstorm.

[Huh, um]

With this, Yussis personal ship lost all functions except floating.

She sat back in her wheelchair and muttered.

Next chieftain. Officially demand this matter from the Frost Dragon Tribe.

[Huh]

Anyway, well take care of this, so go now.

The childrens expressions became strange at her words.

Where could they go when the battle was over?

But as much as Yussi, Cuculli understood her intentions.

The enemy is still out there.

Her head turned in the direction of the Frost Dragon Tribe village.

There, the five hundred demon troops and reinforcements from the tribe would be fiercely fighting.

The demon forces may have been replenished.

The distance between the sanctuary and the Frost Dragon Tribe village was very close.

If the reinforcements were delayed, the village would be in danger.

It was a village surrounded by cliffs and the sea, with no suitable place to take refuge.

Some of the weak ones had already fled for refuge.

If they made a mistake, a massacre could happen.

Cucullis expression became serious.

The first goal of saving friends had been achieved.

Now it was time to save the troops and tribe members who had come to help them.

Flap-

Cuculli spread her wings wide.

There was no time to waste.

[You guys stay here with the principal and]

But suddenly, she couldnt help but stop speaking.

She had noticed her friends climbing onto her back, whimpering.

It seemed they had realized how the situation was unfolding.

Even though theyre exhausted!

Just as she was about to protest.

Do you remember what I said a few days ago?

Bans voice pierced her ears.

Cuculli groped for her memory.

Were your friends and at the same time, weve come to the north as the disciples of a Hero to do what we can.

Youre definitely the biggest reason we came to the north, but you dont have the right to stop us.

The boy chuckled as he firmly embraced Cucullis neck.

Even the professor came, so we cant act pitifully.

Leciel, Evergreen, Karen, Gerald, even the injured Luke.

Even Lucas, avoiding the angry duke, was holding onto his tail tightly.

Gerald clenched her horns and shouted hoarsely.

What wonderful friends they were.

Cuculli couldnt help but chuckle.

[Theyre reliable.]

Flap-

As they rose vertically, the sailors waving their hands and the half-frozen ship quickly disappeared from view.

Wow!

Lets go!

The childrens cheers echoed through the northern sky.

.

.

By the way, its taking longer than I thought, huh?

I thought it would be over in a minute. I didnt know he would be inside the barrier until we left.

Well, it seems like hes taking his time to finish them off.

But Ive never seen Stellar Rift spread out like that before. It was really cool.

The children knew that Stellar Rift was being cast in a barrier format.

But there was no one worrying among them.

To them, the Hero was like an invincible deity.

Of course, the Demonic Church Leader showed a chillingly powerful side, but she was not going to surpass the Hero.

Lets not worry about it.

As the children exchanged such conversations and relaxed their bodies.

Only Cuculli, with subtly worried eyes, looked back.
