Chapter 282: Labyrinth of Heresy Conclusion
Damn it, why do I have the duty to send off the Divine Empire Sydnia?
As I cried that out in my heart over and over, I continued to chip away at the Monster bit by bit.
「！？」
I sidestepped because my intuition told me to, and the spot I was at just before was hit with magic at point nk range.
「Damn it, magic from that close is dangerous.」
I brimmed with strength as I grumbled so.
「It wouldn’t be a fatal wound if you use just a little bit of magic and physical attacks!」
「Thank you very much!」
Queen Fraal seems to have used support magic that had buffs on us vanguards fighting. At the same time, she used support magic to cast a debuffing effect on the Monster.
「<em>Ora! Ora! Oraaaa</em>!!」
Wieldingrge swords with their huge bodies, King Ryvar and King Deega jumped in to cut thee arms and tentacles of the Monsters in such a fierce attack that it doesn’t have enough time to recover.
<em>Waon! Gan! Doga</em>!
Swinging the all metal hexagonal rod, King Jairu blocked the iing attacks.
As an Oni, he has a technique to manipte the fighting spirit obtained by having a high physical capabilities and low aptitude for magic. He used that to envelop his weapon.
「Akane and Laeva, please treat the everyone!」
「Leave it to us!」
「Understood!」
At Sophia’s instructions, Akane and Laeva took over healing everyone fighting in the frontlines using healing magic.
<em>Doga</em>!!
The two 3 meter tall giants, Titan and King Guzhr, blocked the Monster’s attacks using Super Heavy Shield Bash, and dealt attack with their enormous weapons?
Thanks to the rulers of the six countries and their elite subordinates, Sophia, Maria, Akane, Laeva, Kaede, and Titan’s support, the pressure from the Monster’s attacks abated, and I dished out 『Dposition』 more than ever before.
「<strong><em>Guoooooooo</em>!!</strong>」
The Monster’s arms and tentacles, tails, and feet were chopped off in the frenzy of attacks from the girls and the rulers, and its main body was in tatters from being broken down because of my use of alchemy.
It was then that I felt several magic stones inside the Monster. It was likely the magic stones of the monsters it absorbed.
「(It might not be possible for the people taken in, but if the Monster loses the magic stones that became its core, wouldn’t it be unable to maintain its body?)」
I activated 『Dposition』 on the area close to where I sensed a response from the magic stones in its body.
「<strong><em>Gyaaaaaa</em>ーーーー!!</strong>」
Shrieks came from the multiple mouths of the Monster, and a chunkrger than ever before broke down.
「<em>GuoOooOo</em>!! Don’te close! You filthy beasts of monster ancestry! I am Pope Warvaal!!!」
The face of Pope Warvaal who had been absorbed by the Monster emerged, he raised his voice in anguish, and even now, he threw scornful words at the Beastkin, Devils, Onis, and Subi.
「I don’t think someone who turned into a monster can say that!」
I grabbed the forehead of Pope Warvaal, who rose to the surface, and activated 『Dposition.』.
「<strong>Gyaaaaaaaaaaーー!!</strong>」
Leaving only an agonizing screaming, the old man who was once rose to be the Pope of a country in the center of a continent was dposed into oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen, disappearing from this world.
「<strong>aGaneeEーー! sAveE m3eーー!</strong>」
「<em>Ugh!</em>」
The leadership of the Monster was moved to Akira, and Akira’s face surfaced, shouting at Akane to be saved.
「Takumi! Let him be at peace already!」
「<em>UwaaAaaAa</em>ーー!!」
I gave up on evading when I heard Akane’s heart breaking voice and ced both hands on the Monster. I gathered all my magic power and casted 『Dposition』.
「「「<strong><em>Gyaaaaaaaa</em>ーーーー!!</strong>」」」
The monster’s body actively broke down.
We could hear the death cries of multiple creatures, the remnants of the former Sydnia, and Akira who were absorbed by the Monster as the disintegration that started from its body’s surface began to spread into its entire body until, eventually, only several magic stones were left behind on the dungeon floor.
「<em>Haa, haa</em>, you’re thest one.」
We pushed our tired bodies and looked at thest remaining figure.
「Kneel, you irreverent fools who dare defy our Goddess! Your numerous acts are unpardonable to our Goddess!」
The voice uttered by the Princess whose body was upied by the Evil Spirit had just that much pressure.
「<em>Kuh</em>, so it’s a spirit no matter how corrupt it had be? Then try this on for size!」
I threw something at the entity that was once Princess Elizabeth.
「!? You! What did you do!?」
All of a sudden, the movements and magic power of the woman were restricted and she shrieked.
I had an item from the Great Spirits which I held onto for this moment.
It would be difficult to destroy the Spirit during battle. That was why the Great Spirits had entrusted me with a Sealing Stone.
「Takumi, good job. Leave the rest to us.」
Undine, Sylph, Dryas, Gnome, Selene, Nyx, and Smander appeared all around Elizabeth who was unable to move.
「You! You Spirits dare defy a Goddess!?」
「Pitiful child…… start over from the beginning as a wandering Spirit without a will.」
The Great Spirits held their hands over the foul-mouthing Elizabeth.
Just as I thought the outline of Elizabeth grew blurry as she was engulfed in light, that light grew into a smaller and smaller lump.
Undine held that small light in her hand and she thanked us.
「Takumi, and the inhabitants of the Demon Continent. Our kin had caused you trouble.」
「「「「………………」」」」
The sudden appearance of the Great Spirits and the subsequent events had dumbfounded the rulers of the Demon Continent. Then, upon processing that the Great Spirits were before their very eyes, they simultaneously kneeled on the spot.
It looked like the Great Spirits were objects of faith even to the inhabitants of the Demon Continent.
A bitter on, once they recovered, we escaped the dungeon with the Great Spirits’ power.
For as long or short it was, whichever the case, our adventure between two continents was marking its end.
