Chapter 239
In the Face of Death
Meanwhile, Alberto and Ruri were engaged in a close battle with Gokma.
Until now, Gokma, who had only dealt with them by twisting and unraveling space, showed more of his repertoire.
'Space shattered.'
Dimension Break.
A high-dimensional magic that even mages skilled in space magic find difficult.
Еń u m̀á
As the entire space twisted and went awry, everything visible looked just like seeing shards of a broken window.
Because space is twisted, even adapting to that space is difficult.

It causes confusion where even how to step, how to move, everything gets tangled.
Only Gokma himself can maintain composure within it.
Most go insane before reaching this stage, so among space magicians it's also known as forbidden magic.
The one most affected was Ruri.
Ӗ n̈ u ḿ а .і d
Since she used agile movements as her weapon, her vision grew dizzy and she naturally hit the brakes.
If it were an ordinary person, they'd lose their sense of direction after just ten steps and faint.
But Ruri was a dragon spawn who was a warrior.
Finding a breakthrough somehow was her job.

Her innate senses adapted in adversity, and she became able to move freely to some extent.
Attacks trying to destroy buildings went back and forth several times, trying to push Gokma back again.
En̄ üm_á. і̃ d̈
Ruri and Alberto didn't exchange any words.
However, as veterans of combat, they knew what they had to do.
Ruri became the driver herding Gokma in, and Alberto moved as the executioner driving in slow but precise strikes.
Gokma died several times, but each time he was replaced and appeared again.
As the tense standoff continued, what stopped their bodies was something unexpected.
"This is......"

"Sulfur smell......"
In this space of death, the smell of sulfur began to spread.
It grew thicker to the point it couldn't be dismissed as mere worry, and the entire area was filled with sulfur.
Why is this smell appearing,
They both had the same question, but Gokma seemed to know the answer.
He let out a hollow laugh and spoke.
Е̇ n ú m̈ а̃
"Do you know why I dislike humans?"
"......"

"Because their will breaks before death, and they become slaves. Just like now."
He continued speaking as if he knew this would happen.
"The Master of Death has arrived. It seems Heinkel has finally succumbed to death after all."
He makes a face that seems bitter, yet simultaneously smiles.
Ẇ ѐb̃ n о v ё l Е̄ n_û m̄ á
"Well, it's fortunate it's within expectations. Who in the world can remain noble before death? Even I couldn't."
Then the broken space returned to its original state.
"My role ends here. I'll be going back now."
Gokma drew a line through the air, and a dizzying space opened up.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
For Ruri and Alberto, they didn't want to let him go.
That was when it happened.
Ē nū m̊а
Pajik-.
"Huh?"
An alien crack occurred in the space Gokma had opened.
A crack that destroys cracks.
Pajangchang!
Space shatters like a thin glass window breaking, and returns to the form of mana.

What emerged through the faint blue light was a single sword.
And a woman.
"Uht!"
Gokma forcibly twisted his body at the unexpected attack.
That blade cut through Gokma's shoulder and passed through.
"You are......"
Е̊ńu mа
A body wearing nothing but rags crouches like a beast, and the sword held in her hand is raised like a beast's claw.
That sword was what had cut the space just now.

"Sak!"
That woman's eyes glowed blue as she stared at Gokma.
When Gokma met that gaze, he felt his own death.
Gokma pierced through the essence of those eyes.
Е̇nu.m̆а .ї d̊
"Eyes that show death, the Death Eye. Then that means you're Sierra's Saintess?"
She answered.
"Man."
"'Man' means affirmation. The Wolf is here, but the Chain isn't visible...... I see. Is the Chain already moving?"

"......"
The woman didn't answer.
È nů m â .їd
Instead, only her sword glittered in this hell.
But Gokma just laughed.
He already knew where she went.
"Life truly is unpredictable."

-Such an insolent thing.

The Heinkel King, turned into a skeleton, slammed Pherda straight into the floor.
"Keuk!"
Pherda was powerless.
No barrier to deploy, breathing was difficult, and his mind was hazy.
He had no choice but to accept the Heinkel King's martial might as is.
-Try spouting off once more.
Е̂n̂ ú m а . і̊ d̀_
The Heinkel King could be felt within the deeply resonating voice.
However, his atmosphere of agony and heaviness was no more.

Bewitched by a demon, he entrusted his body to madness, and now only pleasure remains.
-You said mages save their best for the very last, so where did that confident face of yours go?
He lifts Pherda's body again and slams it into the floor.
Ribs broke.
Е̊ǹ_u_ḿ a
His vision kept flashing.
Pherda had no more methods.
'The only way is if someone comes to stop this even now.'
He could only wish for such a miracle.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
But did such a wish even reach?
Kwaang!
Е̃ñŭ mà.ї ḋ
Someone kicked open the door and entered the space where only the two of them were.
Hope called reinforcements arose, but that didn't last long either.
What was felt entering through the door was enormous heat.
It was Ureas in Amon's form.
-Hehehehehe!!!
Ureas letting out a frivolous laugh like an immature child.

-So you were here, Regent Pherda! Did this rat bastard think he could run away avoiding me!?
Ureas threw something he'd been dragging.
It was Count Rooster's head.
In the end, Rooster couldn't use any means and seems to have died by the Second Prince's hand.
-Now it's your turn! I'll cut off your head and send it to your fiancée!
Ureas threw the sword he was holding at Pherda.
Еn u_m̂а̂
It aimed accurately at Pherda's body, but didn't reach his body.
The Heinkel King had blocked the sword aimed at Pherda.

Ureas raged wildly.
-What are you!? If you're a corpse, stay quiet like a corpse, how dare you block this Ureas's path!
-That's what I want to say. Don't you even know thanks to whom you were revived?
-Why would I know! I must have been revived because I'm great!
W̄ е̃b̂ n̂ о̇ v̄ е l̃ Ӗ nù m̌ а
Ureas spoke in an arrogant voice.
-Serve me, you worthless trash. If you do, I'll gladly make you my retainer.
-Such insolent words.
Vowing to dominate before the Demon of Immortality and Legions was an unforgivable provocation.

The lacking Ureas and Heinkel eventually clashed with each other.
Since a caught fish gets put on the back burner, Pherda in that state tried to somehow escape in this opening.
Ẅе b.ñ ov̇_e l Еň u m̌а
'Move......'
He flailed his arms praying that strength remained somewhere in his muscles.
He tried to stand up several times, but each time his body only answered that it was already broken.
X marks lining up on a checklist.
Finally, even the lifeline of hope disappeared, and Pherda sensed death.
'I don't want to die.'
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Birth and death are natural order, but who would want to die?
'I want to return alive.'
Pherda is human too.
A human who only wishes to return alive.
'Valdrova.'
He wanted to see that face again.
Ѐn ǔḿа̂. і̄d
He misses her so much he's going crazy.
'At least if I'm dying, if only I could have time to reassure that woman and die......'
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
That was Pherda's wish.
That was when.
-You can.
To desperate humans, demons come.
Wе̇b̂ n̆ о̆ v̇е̇ l Е̊n úḿ а
But for Pherda, it wasn't a demon.
A sweet voice sleeping within approached Pherda's side.
What had stopped at a voice now had a tangible form.
A warm hand on Pherda's face.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
And stroked his body.
-In this unreasonableness, it's okay to let go of yourself even just a little.
Е̄ nu mа
"I...... to you——."
He looked up and saw it, and Pherda felt his words choke.
That form was none other than his mother, Anna Rosnova.
-Pherda......
That moist voice was the same too.
Unconsciously, he ended up calling that voice like this.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"Mo, mother......"
-You really had a hard time while I wasn't there.
Warm comfort shook Pherda's heart.
He couldn't believe it.
The voice that whispered in his inner self was his mother?
-Pherda...... believe in your power and use it.
Ẅ е̃ b nӧ v́ е̂ ľ Е ňum̆а̇
"My power...... you say?"
-Yes...... it's right here, isn't it?

She touches something inside Pherda's dantian.
It was the Dark Circle forged from Pherda's regret.
-Use this...... then everything will go smoothly.
"Everything, you say?"
W̃е̃ḃnо̊v̌.ѐl Ё n̊ ùmа
-Yes. This power can create the world you want, and you can return to your fiancée too.
He can return to Valdrova.
Two pairs of horns and red hair.
Golden cat eyes sparkling with purity and moist lips.

Soft hands and slender shoulder line.
He can return to her, who is his everything.
Е́ n̆ŭ m̈ а. і̌d
-Just this once is enough.
Anna Rosnova's form waved her fingers.
At that moment, something amazing happened to Pherda.
He felt vitality returning to a body that seemed like it would die just moments ago.
That's not all.
An enormous amount of mana he couldn't feel until now also rose up together.

Like Pherda's prime.
Similar to the mana of that time.
-Let's show them what we're made of.
The voice said so.
But the Dark Circle's movement stops.
Because Pherda caught her hand.
En̆um ӓ. ĭd
-Why......?
"If I awaken that...... I'll become a human no different from back then."
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
-Is that scary?
"Yes, I...... know how scary that is."
Pherda knew.
It wouldn't end with just this once.
Е̇ń u m̈ а
Once becomes twice, twice becomes four times, and later he'll use it as if it's natural.
"Then what meaning is there in me...... returning like this?"
-......
Pherda pushed her hand away.

It was the same sensation as the last time he touched her.
"Please, Mother. Please let me remain human. Please...... let me die like this."
W̃ ëb̄ńо v̊ е̊ l Е n u̇ m̈ а
That was Pherda's resolve.
His breath finally stopped, and Pherda fell into eternal silence.
-Whose permission?
Intense pain felt at that moment.
"Keueok!"
Pherda's spirit snapped awake.

It felt like someone thrust their hand into Pherda's heart and squeezed.
When he came to again, the mother's form that was visible was still smiling kindly.
-Child, child. Did you think fate depends on your heart?
Another hand touches Pherda's circle.
-Fate is fate because it cannot be avoided. You tried to avoid the fate of hatred and anger you must embrace, but you can't.
That finger stirred the Dark Circle inside Pherda's body.
Ẽn̄ u m̆ а̂.
The circle spun faster following the finger's movement.
Vitality surged from Pherda's body.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The surging vitality ironically tried to overlay something other than Pherda, himself.
And he himself tried to drop his consciousness far away.
-Because if you avoid fate, you must die.
Pherda gritted his teeth and glared at that woman.
Wе̇ b̄ n̄ õ vӗl Еn u mã
Anna Rosnova whispered kindly into his ear.
-I'll do it if you're alive. Whether it's a great tragedy or comedy.
Pherda fell into the abyss.

Ureas and the Heinkel King continued fighting each other.
Each time they attacked, they dealt fatal blows shattering half of each other's bodies, but they immediately recovered, continuing an endless fight.
Е n̈ u m a. і̌ d̈
-Stop for a moment.
The one who stopped the fight first was the Heinkel King.
He stopped fighting and was looking elsewhere.
Ureas glanced at where the Heinkel King was looking, and followed his gaze to stare at it.
What they were looking at was Pherda.
Pherda, half-dead, was kneeling.

He didn't have enough strength left to even kneel.
The reason their gazes were stolen wasn't that.
Pherda's body was bent backward, and something began to form from his chest.
Darkness even darker than darkness.
Mass formed in darkness itself
Since he used Shadow Arts, he already knew such a thing existed.
Е̇ñ ŭm̂а . i̊ d
But that darkness was incomparably strange.
A white ring was wrapped around the border.

-What on earth is that......?
It was something rarely seen even with Gamigin's knowledge.
As Heinkel examined it quietly, Ureas didn't miss the chance.
-I'll kill you, Pherda!
E̊ǹ ū m̊ а̇ . і̂ d
Ureas, heedless of danger, charged at Pherda.
Then something amazing happened.
-Huh?
As he got closer, what made up Ureas's body turned to ash and lost its form.

The ash was entering that black circle.
-Wh, what!?
È ńũ.m̌а̀..id
Even stupid Ureas knew this was a dangerous phenomenon.
He stopped advancing and stepped back.
Even though distance increased, the scattering didn't stop.
-Ah no! I can't die! I don't want to die!!
It only grew fiercer with time's passage, and there was no way to resist.
Finally, Ureas's form completely disappeared.

The Heinkel King watching everything, and Gamigin, couldn't hide their shock.
-Now I understand.
Gamigin could finally define what that form was.
-Dark Moon?
The darkest darkness among darkness.
It's so dark it sucks in all surrounding light, and the light's afterglow forms a faint ring-like border.
Е̂ ń um̆а́
Even Gamigin doesn't know what happens to things that enter it.
Because that was the embodiment of the ultimate void that demon followers desired.

-You're not human. No, are you human yet something else? Your essence feels like ores melted in a blast furnace. What on earth are you?
There was no way an answer would return to Gamigin's question.
Instead, the deep darkness spun as if responding.
The Great Demon Gamigin released the possession and fled to Hell.
W̆ е̂bn_оṽ еl̄ Еń.ûm̈ ȧ
It became the Heinkel King's intact consciousness again.
The Dark Moon slowly devoured the Heinkel King's body.
He too was disappearing like Ureas.
"N, no......!"

The Heinkel King also screamed.
"No! I don't want to die!! I don't want to dieee!!"
W̆_е̌ b̀ n о̃v́ѐl Е ǹu m̈ а̊
At the end, there was only eternal silence.
The Dark Moon didn't disappear.
It was calmly swallowing light as if waiting for new prey.
The fortress that lost its master began to collapse.
