Chapter 36 – 36. Far From Home (11)
Yes, actually, I was just trying to figure out the fractions and look after them if they were stuck, but I don’t think there’s any need to show mercy to them anymore.
Golem. And the snake-
The iron handmaiden of redemption.
I felt like it was a waste to even use magic against them, which were full of useless bubbles and talking magic spells.
A newly transformed, third form of hammer.
Increase the length.
The handle is extended, the central part of the hammer is split, and the magic stone core is exposed, which becomes the ejection port.
Usually, it is a small hammer that is thrown, lightly swung, or made huge and used to strike, but in its current form.
About another use of a hammer that Dick once showed me.
A simple ‘magic bullet’ that can be used to keep enemies in check by simply flicking a finger without using magic.
In terms of power, it is weaker than a magic missile, but for me, it was a simple way to keep the enemy in check without using magic, and I used to infuse magic into things like stones and throw them, mainly targeting critical points.
And this is released in the form of pure energy.
And what did the being who used it say?
Well, that’s good.
Let’s give true education to these fools who are trying to destroy me in anger by using simple natural phenomena to show their vision without magic.
Unfolds the electromagnetic field.
The bullet I fired.
Electricity repels electricity with the same properties. And it was discovered through long research, the electricity of light. And the electricity of darkness, light and darkness attract each other, and darkness and darkness, light and light repel each other.
And another form created according to that theory.
An electromagnetic magic bullet of light that I fired. And it passes through the electromagnetic gateway of light I created.
The nature of trying to repel each other. Bullets fired at high speed pass through the gate, accelerate further due to their mutually repulsive properties, and are fired as is.
A weapon created by interpreting phenomena in the natural world from beginning to end.
The fired magic bullet shatters the golem, the snake behind it, and the Iron Maiden.
“Power slam-!”
And Dick, who was right next to me, shouted that, and when I looked at him with strange eyes, Mine, who was next to me, lowered her head and said to me, as she always did, over Dick’s remarks.
“…I’m sorry. As always, just listen to my nonsense. Okay?”
That’s natural.
In the first place, it’s not the first time I’ve seen Dick talk nonsense like this.
Naturally, the secret of the family’s conversion was so easily broken, and at the same time, the curse and malice inherent in the magic they formed, and my ‘blood’ that went along with the magic.
I wanted to curse these petty thieves, who stopped thinking for themselves and were busy stealing and using other people’s things, unable to become damn usurpers, filled with disappointment for not even being able to properly use what was theirs –
“Stop it Clark.”
There was a blonde creation goddess blocking me.
Did they realize what I was going to do to them? He realizes what I’m trying to do and immediately grabs my shoulder. Of course, I told her to ignore her, but…
After all, God is God.
Even if he had lost all his power and was only a name, would he still be able to know?
“You know what I’m going to do and you’re stopping me.”
“At least from your perspective, passing by on the street is enough, and you were the one who said that if you leave it alone, it will die of natural causes. If you go any further, you will only build up more resentment than necessary.”
“Oh, so you’re telling me to just leave things that will come back to haunt me? After loving people so much, you’re looking down on their desires, weaknesses, and envy. If you can’t move forward, you can grab the ankles of those who did and shoot them. “It’s human to suppress their excellence and cover it up as our own. Please look at what they did to me, to my father, and to the Dawn Bringer?”
Of course, this is my just revenge.
Obviously, I gave them two chances, but they ignored them and arrogantly refused to admit their mistakes until the end.
Naturally, Solias spoke about it.
“Then do it. If you want to do it, I won’t stop you. I have no right to stop you, and you will do it even if I do. But at least I don’t think you have a hobby of bullying the weak.”
They are weak things.
“…My father ended up like that because he was cornered by these weaklings.”
“Your father wanted you to go your own way. But is this really what your father wanted you to do?”
“…”
“Be more calm. You are a ‘being’ who needs to become stronger and better, so don’t waste your strength on weak things. Depending on your ‘success,’ I can also help you and achieve your desired goal. “It can be achieved. Don’t waste your ‘power’ on things like this.”
Yes, it’s your job, so don’t bother me openly. Don’t waste your energy needlessly. Well, that’s good.
Let’s acknowledge that it is such a contract, and since we are cooperating on those terms, we should not be caught up in one side or the other.
And I put away the curse that was boiling in my heart and looked at them.
Raise your hand and straighten your hand towards the throat.
Suddenly-
And, the magic blade I shot blew their heads off.
“…”
And did Solias know that I would be like this? Naturally, he was not particularly shaken when he saw me rip off the heads of three devastated consuls. Even if you leave it alone, it will die naturally. And if the behavior of the newly appointed consuls is like this, then of course I will only receive a fair price for what they are trying to do.
It’s just the difference between dying comfortably or dying painfully.
From the moment they blocked my path, I had no intention of saving them.
It was a very simple death compared to what I was trying to do, but I didn’t want to talk nonsense like leaving them alive or anything.
“Those who need to die should die. I gave them two chances, but don’t you think it’s rude to give them a third chance?”
I thought Solias would say some bullshit about this, but instead he just looked at me and said to me as if he was asking me what kind of bullshit I was talking about.
“Don’t ask me for the answer to that. You know the answer to that.”
?
How can you say it like this?
Don’t you know the answer to your actions? As she asked me this, I felt dizzy for a moment.
Did you suddenly take medicine?
I wanted to, but it doesn’t really matter.
Those who need to die should die, and those who will continue to bother you should be killed. And because of the trolls that the bitch Kampf has already done, they are merciless about this, and it is up to them to take care of the fact that the better successors had their heads cut off in a week.
Maybe it’s better.
The old trees that block the sunlight have been cut down, and behind them, plants that have never seen the light will grow up.
Well, that’s good.
Those blocking the entrance, the remaining wizards, and even the Magia guards trembled and gave way, unable to block my path.
And…
“…Farewell, my hometown, my home.”
I left Magia behind and headed towards the southwestern region, Gehenna.
“…Are you really okay with this?”
“It’s okay, Adramelech.”
After stopping Clark, Solias worries that Adramelech may have offended Clark. Even if he is someone he doesn’t like, he has power, and he can easily destroy the current Solias. This may be the case for a larvae that has not yet properly awakened, but if it truly awakens, it may cause harm to Solias due to the emotions it has accumulated over the years.
“…He won’t care about this.”
In any case, he and Clark are partners.
And in that cooperative relationship, when I pointed out that he was arbitrarily wasting the energy that should have been used for that great cause when he was supposed to accomplish a ‘great cause’ together, he accepted it without a word. There was no way for them to survive in the first place.
Clark had already given the opportunity twice, blowing off each Archon’s head and allowing his successor to take over again.
However, despite this, he came up with and implemented a ridiculous proposal to make Clark bear the astronomical amount of damage caused to Magia, and as a result, Clark went bald.
Lastly, before Clark leaves, from the moment he and Mira come up with the idea of killing them and stealing the magic circuit, he must be prepared to fight and die as a wizard.
After hearing how much pain Clark was in after losing his magic circuit and how he ran from the Demon World to Magia, saying I would take it away was like saying I would kill you, and it was a will to take each other’s lives in a fight for survival.
No matter how much of a goddess she was, she wasn’t so much a wizard that she would ask you to show mercy to those who approached you with murderous intent, saying she would kill you.
It was simply his limit that prevented him from inflicting any more terrible punishment on them.
“Medea, will you be okay?”
What Adramelech said. And Solias approached Medea, who was left alone after Clark left. Solias said to Medea, who sat there like a doll whose strings had been cut.
-Is it painful?
-…
She nodded.
Your heart longs even though you can’t remember anything, and your heart wants and wants to remember even though it’s painful. Her current life was nothing short of suffering as she had been robbed of all her memories of her loved one.
That’s why Solias approached her.
To help ease her pain.
-Do you want to get comfortable?
-…Ah, Goddess… Where on earth did I start, where did I go wrong…?
And when she recognizes herself, she recognizes him as her real ‘Solias’. Seeing Medea looking to him for an answer, Solias felt her heart break.
She said she acted for the people she loved, for the being she loved, but the result was…
As always, reality is a gutter.
-Just, I wanted to bring that person back to me, and I thought that if those kids weren’t there, he could come back to me… I ended up trying to make him come back after he left…In the end, I…
-…You can’t hold on to what’s gone. Water that seeps into the soil cannot be contained again.
-…Ah…
Was it like that or was it like that?
While doing so, Medea regretted her tears.
A contract made with a star. The two children born at the end of that contract.
Clark, Mira.
When I tried to kill those two. She herself defiled her hands when she tried to kill the children of her two women who defiled her man.
She rummaged through the dirt to collect the spilled water, but in the end she couldn’t collect it again.
-You can’t always keep it in your arms. That’s what love is. A violent act committed in the name of love, or a crime that uses one’s love as justification, is a crime worse than malice. You can’t justify everything in the name of love.
-…
Spitting out words of his own regret, Solias spoke to the mortal before him.
-I can help you. This is a little rest that I can give to you and me now.
-…
-Take my hand.
And Solias stretches out his hand.
And…
Light shines from Solias’ hand, and at the same time, the noise in Medea’s head clears, and she faces the person she loves.
Ah, Marcus.
Marcus…I’m sorry. I, I’m sorry. I- I couldn’t let you go. I- I…
Even if it wasn’t connected to him, Marcus was going to be eaten like that in the end, and what Dick said when he came to see Clark when he passed out after Marcus died.
-In the end, he was destined to end like that. Because that was the contract. I wanted to save you, but I couldn’t save you.
-…Even though his son grew up and had to eat him every moment, he still loved his son until the end. So the pain and sadness he had to go through must have been bigger than yours, couldn’t he have done?
-…That’s why he didn’t tell you until the end.
-You, with your own hands, castrated the last means of remembering him.
And as her mind gradually becomes clearer, she realizes what she has done in the past.
The sadness, the pain, when he ate the father who treated him with love, and the person who embraced him with love even though he knew that it would also be eaten by him.
If it had been embraced and understood, would things have been better than they are now?
Clark has already left, and all he has left is…
Now there is only oblivion.
As she fell asleep, she was left with Solias, who had the power to make all her memories and feelings about her former lover disappear.
“…”
And, after that, Solias could see that his strength was starting to come back a little. She was following Clark at a distance, relieved that once again this planet had not abandoned her, that it had welcomed her with such enthusiasm.
May this poor mortal’s heart rest in peace.
Solias was able to regain some of her strength, ending up giving her peace of mind.
I couldn’t do this forever.
All that matters is that the Elder Gods who have robbed her of her power must be eliminated.
And she didn’t want to be treated like a burden by Clark forever.
-One month later, Dawn Bringer Mansion / Midnight-
“…This is Clark’s?”
Gawain, the blond man, said as he looked at where Clark’s house was.
However, although it is a place where traces of Clark can clearly be felt, the mansion that Clark showed us before is nowhere to be found. Eris, who accompanied Gawain, was able to tell that this place was sealed due to a strange feeling of being invisible and non-existent.
At the same time, it must never be opened.
If you open it, you will be sucked into it.
After going through all sorts of hardships, the two moved quickly from Urus and arrived in Magia within a month.
As if to prove that they were the undisputed powerhouses of the Demon World and former warriors, they showed only slight fatigue and were not particularly tired.
And after investigating the location for a while, a being with black hair, dark skin, and sheep horns appears from the shadows.
The existence of a ‘monster’ that appears from a shadow created by the light of a moonlit night.
No, can this be called a monster?
I was able to immediately realize that a being that was absolutely not of this world was wearing human skin. Gawain also tried to grab the sword when he saw a being as powerful as the Four Heavenly Kings he had faced, but…
“Please wait a moment, Gawain, Hero of the Sun. I have no intention of fighting with you. And…What shall I call you?”
“Eris. Elest, the first descendant of His Majesty the Demon King. Eldest daughter Eris.”
“I see, Eris. Likewise, I have no intention of fighting you just yet.”
“…You seem to have some intelligence, but will what I say reach the person who created you?”
And when Eris asks about it, the woman in front of her nods her head. Emerging from the shadows, a dark-skinned, golden-eyed being wearing a sleeveless, high-legged black leather suit with leather boots that went up to her thighs.
And as Gawain looked at it, he realized that it resembled someone.
“…Demon Lady? Should I say, Lady, what is your relationship with Clark?”
“It’s my father.”
“?”
He has a daughter like this?
Naturally, Gawain would be confused, but Eris doesn’t care.
Among monsters, there are beings with characteristics that cannot be explained in this world, and if you consider the biological characteristics of such beings, it is not an entirely impossible story.
Widdy, she thought it would probably be quite shocking for her to hear.
Maybe he wants to find it himself?
If her teacher, who had raised her since she was young, heard this, she would be surprised at what she would say.
It’s probably a good idea to know if there’s any truth to it.
“My father said this.”
And before they could panic, she introduced herself as Clark’s ‘daughter’ and spoke to them.
“I’m heading to a place where there are bastards and fucking paraphilias.“
“…Goat? Parasexual person?”
“This is the end of what I have to say. Before that, let me ask you something. Are you going to fight me?”
And Eris looks at her. Shakes her head.
I have no intention of fighting.
“I’m looking for my younger brother. I don’t know if you did something bad to my younger brother. Do you know about the lamia monster that takes the form of a small snake, a white snake?”
“I know. I’m with your father.”
As expected, is it as Widi said? Naturally, when neither Eris nor Gawain showed any intention to fight, its body immediately began to blur and fall into the shadows.
“What should I say when we meet later?”
“I wasn’t given a name. I’m just a ‘lamb’. So… I’ll see you later.”
Just like that, the monster that introduced itself as a lamb disappears, and Eris hears what Clark appears to have left behind and thinks about it.
Damn goat. Abnormal sexual desire.
“I said he was a goat kid. Was there a person related to goats?”
“…Baphomet.”
Although Cassandra demanded submission, he was the one who conquered Cassandra and created his own force, establishing Gehenna.
And, in Gehenna, the beings who perform Sabbat rituals and worship him.
And they live long lives, and that’s why they want ‘pleasure’.
As much as he desires pleasure, he has abnormal sexual desires in many ways.
“Gehenna.”
And Eris could tell where Clark was headed.
She had already researched everything about Clark on her way here.
Clark – Dawn Bringer.
A powerful wizard who was recognized as an Archmage at the age of 15.
The wizard of the warrior party.
And he has a sister who is five years younger than him, and the sister is a dark mage and witch.
If so, he is heading to Gehenna for a matter related to his sister.
And as soon as she knew the location, Eris communicated to the Demon Castle without hesitation.
“Gehenna… The time has come when we must capture the witches there and subjugate Baphomet.”
-…Before that, Eris. Clark’s daughter?
“…It seems like something not from this world struck him first. I’m sorry, Chief of Staff.”
-…
The walls behind Widi beyond that communication port are starting to freeze. Do you feel betrayed? Or is it just anger at the person who took away what he decided to eat first?
It’s probably the latter.
Eris, who saw with her own eyes how much Wedi wanted and loved Clark, had no reason for Wedi to hate Clark.
You’ll think it’s just a mistake.
That’s how I was tempted.
If so, I can take it back.
Withi changed his goal.
It’s a calm, subdued voice.
It looks like he has regained his composure.
-Gehenna…Gehenna, conquer it. It’s a place that not even Cassandra could conquer, but judging from what Mr. Clark left behind, there’s a high probability that trouble will occur there.
“Then…What should we do to recruit the powerful witches there?”
– As Mr. Clark said, he is a parasexual person, so he just needs to be attracted to an irresistible pleasure. Plus…You are the first descendant of the Demon King. Naturally, he is the closest being to the Demon King. ‘Occupy’ and ‘encroach’ there your way.
A strategy came from the staff. And, the great devils, devils, and witches there are drawn into the power of the Demon King’s army.
It’s not bad. Yes, if the mess caused by Clark is a foregone conclusion, we can definitely take some action from there.
-Don’t think about the support of humans and just run away. Gehenna is an isolated place anyway, and humans will not help them.
“All right.”
-Well then, good luck. If you can… If you meet her, tell her that ‘Withy’ is waiting for you.
And finally, looking at Weedy’s slightly blushing face, Clark could tell that she was really receiving too much love. Until the end, Weedy was willing to give her heart to Clark, and she wasn’t even giving up just yet.
This is a truly beautiful stance for a monster.
Yes, if I can meet a companion someday… I want to love that way.
Meanwhile, after the communication, in the Demon King’s Castle-
“.. Hehe, you damn bitch. How dare you make a baby by fucking the man I liked? Hehe-“
“…”
And after finishing the communication, her frost surged around her, freezing an entire section of the Demon King’s castle, and Elistro, who was looking at it, couldn’t even think of playing a prank on her and just looked at her.
I knew it…
Love makes monsters more interesting.
The Demon King chuckles as he thinks so.
“Why are you laughing so hard?”
“While you’re doing this, the girl who fucked Clark is probably hanging out with him.”
“Fuck you.”
Of course, what followed was a deadly game of tag between the Chief of Staff and the Demon King.
Of course, it’s no secret that other monsters are the ones cleaning it up.
