Episode 115: Karma
The moment Dragnis responded, Jade’s sword slashed through the void.
Dragnis instantly flew to the side and dodged the unseen.
Jade slashed one after another, but Dragnis transformed both of his legs into human-sized dragons and kept dodging the slashes with tremendous speed.
[Shit!]
[Kuku…]
When Dragnis distanced himself from Jade, he gathered magical power on his back and sprouted wings from his back.
Kicking the ground, Jade felt a tremendous amount of magical power from Dragnis flying high into the sky.
[Disappear.]
For a moment, white light overflowed from Dragnis’ mouth.
A mass of magical power condensed by fusing all attributes.
The “Breath of Destruction” was released again.
A huge white flash rushed towards Jade, but Jade had no intention of avoiding it.
He put all his magic into his right arm and swung his sword vertically to cut it.
[Nuura!]
At that moment, the “Breath of Destruction Breath” split in half, gouging out the earth and raising a pillar of fire to avoid Jade.
Dragnis smiled happily at Jade, who grinned as he received the blast on his back.
[Kuku…it doesn’t seem like you’re just a loud mouth.]
[You too. As expected of an SSS rank. Guys who are confident in themselves usually try to receive my magic…]
[Your magic is too silent. It’s not just cutting, is it? The soldier’s corpse…it was a glimpse, but the cross section didn’t match. My Breath “disappeared” rather than “cut”. It’s almost a feeling. Well… I have a general idea.]
[…That’s scary. Are you looking that far?]
[Enough chatting. Let’s continue…]
At that moment, a huge explosion sounded.
It could be heard from all over the city as it erupted in flames and its end is drawing near.
[Time’s up… Dragnis, I’m sorry, but let’s leave it for another time.]
[Hou, do you think I’ll let you escape?]
[Fu… Stop it. After all, the country will disappear from now on. Besides, I want to take it easy with you. Well then, ‘King of Wrath’. Let’s meet again.]
The moment Jade cut through the void, he disappeared as if nothing had happened in the first place.
Dragnis let out a sigh and looked down at the town from above.
[…..]
Explosions erupted one after another, turning the city into a sea of fire.
The castle exploded from the inside and collapsed, heralding the end of the capital of Armenia.
=====
[Armenia…]
Sherryl and the others had already left the royal capital and were waiting for Jade at the top of the mountain overlooking the city.
The huge flames that engulfed the city lit up the night sky. And the sky, which should have been black, was dyed red like sunset.
[Sherryl, forget it already. That was a hell that tormented Sherryl.]
[Wow, I know… But, there’s Papa and Mama over there…]
[The people are safe. Sherryl’s parents should also be evacuating.]
[Uh… Ugh…]
[It’s okay Sherryl. You’ll meet again someday.]
[Is, is that true…?]
[Yeah. But if you meet them now, you’ll be treated as incompetent. But we’re working to bring that world back to normal. To do that, we need Sherryl’s power. We all need to work together and use whatever means possible…to change this crazy world.]
[What kind of…means…]
Sherryl sees her hometown burning again.
It was enough to determine that Fake words weren’t just words.
[Ah, umm… What is incompetence…? Why are you treating me like that… What’s going on in the world…]
[It’s all human work.]
At that moment, Jade emerged from the darkness.
[Welcome back, Jade. You’re late, aren’t you?]
[I told you that my magic is different from metastasis. Besides, Dragnis…that one is strong. I thought it would be easier, but I was naive.]
[After all, SSS rank is troublesome nya.]
[Ah, that…..!]
Sheryl deeply bowed her head before asking Jade.
[Thank you for your help. So, what do you mean by it’s the work of human beings…]
Jade turned to Sherryl, stares into her eyes and opens his mouth.
[Humans are greedy. When they gain a certain amount of power, they seek greater power. Where they end up is…]
Jade said so and pointed his index finger to the sky.
[God…is it?]
[Yes. Well, let’s pass on the details. There are times for talking, but now’s not the time. Fake, let’s go.]
[Oh, let’s go.]
Fake moved away from them and put his palm on the ground.
Then, something glowing fell from his hand to the ground and began to swell.
When everyone got on the back of the black wyvern that appeared like that, the wyvern spread its wings and flew up into the sky.
[Wow!]
[Haha! Don’t be shaken off, okay?]
[Let’s go nya!]
The Wyvern with five people on board headed north.
What Jade meant by human work.
What did that mean?
The world still doesn’t know that.
=====
[Armenia!?]
『Yes…it was destroyed overnight.』
[Is it… Dragons…?]
『No… Titanomachy did. A statement of responsibility has already been issued.』
[No way…]
Just as we were about to arrive at the village where the former Hero lived, we heard the news from the Celt King.
I didn’t expect the Titanomachy to attack Armenia… let alone destroy it…
『It’s horrible. They have the power to destroy even a country.』
[Yes… Um, what about the people of Armenia…?]
『It seems that the civilians were somehow safe. Greece is taking care of them for now, but the Celts will take them in. However, most of the soldiers were killed and the Armenia King…』
Armenia must have had the strength to fight the dragons…but still they weren’t able to defeat Titanomachy?
Even so, why was the Titanomachy…thinking about Armenia…?
[Your Majesty, do you know anything about the people Titanomachy assassinated?]
『Ah, about that… Maybe it’s the same reason why you were targeted at Armenia.』
[That’s……]
『Investigations have shown that the assassinated humans are likely to have persecuted the incompetents. In other words, if they were a group of former incompetents who killed those humans to help their brethren…the story makes sense.』
It wouldn’t be strange if there were other humans like Horus, who had tortured people who were called incompetent.
So, Titanomachy was looking for people like that and helping them…
[Then, they are…]
『Umu, probably without a doubt. But, this time Armenia is on a different scale. Perhaps there is another intention…or at least I think so.』
Certainly, as the Celt King said, the scale of this time is an order of magnitude higher than before.
I’ve heard from Ban-san that Titanomachy killed a whole castle’s worth of people before, but this time they utterly destroyed a country…and a city too.
There must be other reasons than before.
『I don’t know what it is…but that’s the report for the time being. Let’s get in touch if there’s anything else. If Rhode finds anything, please let me know.』
[Understood. Excuse me then.]
After putting away the comm stones, Levi and I both pondered.
[It’s highly possible that there were people who were called incompetent who weren’t listed in the newspaper… Tia was like that too.]
[Yeah, probably…and there’s one more thing that bothers me.]
[What is it Levi?]
[About 3 months ago… Do you remember the article you read in a newspaper at Ist?]
