The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 321
“Now…What did you say?”
The old man asked in a trembling voice.
The old man Shabti looked at Solomon in disbelief.
“Are you going to lock yourself up? What’s more, to draw blood from the whole body and make a meal… ….”
A terrible idea.
It really wasn’t something I could have sanely conceived of.
Even more so if the person who said such a thing has harbored guilt for a long time.
“That can’t be.”
Shabti shook her head.
“I don’t know how you found this place or how you got here. but…no i am… …We have sinned too much against you. How can you… ….”
At those words, the visitor Solomon, facing Shabti, shook his head.
“So you have to do more. Because of your sins.”
His red eyes flashed fiercely as if he would not allow even the slightest retreat.
Solomon stretched out his hand.
Dark red veins protruded from his wrinkled hands to the extent that he thought they were ugly.
It wasn’t just the veins protruding from his arm. Except for the face, the neck was sticking out like a threat.
There’s no way Shabti, the apostle, didn’t know what that meant.
pollution.
The situation that the Round Table had been so wary of in the past unfolded to Solomon.
What’s more, what happened to Solomon was caused by the round table’s ‘bystander’.
“It is a wound that was created in the process of festering like that due to your rejection. It is a mark that you must face and take responsibility for.”
“…!”
“Watch all my pain and curses. Just as you never forgave me in the past, this is the moment when you have to face the ‘sin’ of me.”
“I am….”
Shabti took a step back.
What he expected was a gradual fading away as he dealt with the unsuspecting challenger.
They never thought that their past sins would come back like this.
“Ahhh….”
At that moment, Shabti unknowingly laughed at the brazenness.
On the topic of being rejected at will because of that feeling… ….
didn’t know
ha ha ha.
How can there be such cruel and cowardly words?
Anything has a price.
If the cost of ostracizing the sidelines of that day is to come back like this now… ….
‘I have to deal with it.’
Shabti closed her eyes tightly.
Even if there is a grudge against the arrangement He had made, he himself must take responsibility as an apostle.
have to pay the penalty
okay.
Even if you wear out your ego and live in pain for the rest of your life.
* * *
– …It was a miserable past. really.
Wise grimaced as he searched for memories of the past.
No matter how negative the demon’s direction was, going against the creator’s will was never a pleasant experience.
I do not regret it.
However, if the action was just exhilarating, that’s not it either.
I just did it because I had to.
The pain and guilt he had to deal with plagued him for a very long time.
…okay.
The demon god never let him go because he betrayed him.
The Demon God ‘decomposed’ one of the exceptionally outstanding individuals among the countless demons that followed him, and mixed it with Solomon’s blood.
It was a cruel act.
A persistent and cruel punishment that could only be done because it was a ‘god’.
It was done secretly and swiftly at the moment when the demon was wounded and kicked out and Asar died, so it was not noticed at all.
It was too late when I noticed.
It was already past the level of separating properly.
As a result, we have reached now.
If you make a mistake, even the blood that will be passed on to the next generation will be placed under the control of the demon god.
Then, even if it meant torturing myself endlessly, I would end this curse called ‘Malpas’ on my own.
With that thought, Solomon threw himself into endless torment.
and the current situation. 【
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
!
Wise, who lightly knocked him down, came down in front of Mikhail with an empty smile.
The cheeky descendant asked him with a jingling laugh.
“Do you have any plans to hide it now, sir?”
– It’s ‘Wise’.
Solomon No Wise answered firmly.
The existence of Solomon was buried in that slime until just now.
Solomon is dead.
It disappeared due to the machinations of the Demon God, who might be her parents.
Weiss is here.
That’s it.
At that, Mikhail shrugged.
“Well then, Wise.”
He said that with a smirking expression, as if he had always been respectful.
I’ve felt it before, but this guy named Mikhail is so shameless that you can’t see him as his own descendant.
How did something like this come about?
“So what about memories and abilities?”
– Almost found them.
Weiss moved her body around.
Although I was a little concerned about my underdeveloped body… ….
– The performance of < Longinus > that I ate at that time was quite certain.
“Hmm, I see.”
The < Longinus > that Wise ate is not just a weapon.
A weapon that pierced the gods.
< Longinus > is nothing else, but the ‘demon blood’ is clearly buried.
In addition, after facing Asar’s reappearance, Mikhail, the contractor, even realized his divinity.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he had reached the same level as Solomon before he was alive.
“It would have been more convenient if you had told me in advance.”
– I just wanted to see you.
Weiss said calmly.
– What the descendants of Solomon will do with the hope he drew out by burning his last.
It was for a very emotional reason.
It was a reason that did not match Solomon, who had been planning rationally for the rest of his life, but what could he do?
I am no longer Solomon.
‘Yes, it’s Wise.’
It’s a name given by descendants, but I quite like it. Rather, I liked this better than the name ‘Solomon’ I received from the demon.
– So the contractor.
“hmm?”
– What can I do?
As Wise, not Solomon.
what can you do yourself
At that, Mikhail laughed.
“What’s wrong with Walpurgis being good at it?”
– …You mean?
“Kill it.”
Mikhail grinned.
“I will never wake up again.”
– oh.
kinda like that
* * *
Kwaaaang!
【You bastard… …!]
Malphas, who allowed an unexpected attack for a very short time, came to his senses.
His red eyes flashed as he searched for Solomon’s location.
Traitor Solomon!
No matter how depraved and broken it is, there is no way that Malphas will not notice it.
He’s been parasitic on his body for so long, waiting for the right moment!
– Did you come to your senses?
At one point, Wise was standing right in front of Malpas.
He smirked and held out his hand.
Then, at that moment, a force of mana rushed into his hand.
He looked down at Malphas while clutching the mana sphere that emitted a deep blue light as if it were natural, and then lightly swept it.
At that moment, Malpas, who barely got up, broke his knees.
【Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak?!】
The mana controlled by Wise’s hand weighed down Malphas’ whole body as it was.
Malphas, as the Great Devil, was not a being that could be overwhelmed by moderate amounts of mana.
【this person…Gaaaaagh!]
Unfortunately, the opponent wasn’t good.
I wonder if there is no existence called ‘Solomon’.
What is now in this place is a demigod from the age of mythology who has returned after experiencing countless tragedies.
Malphas screamed.
【W As expected… …Oh no how?! how do you… …! I saw that he was dead… …!]
– He died.
what if it’s not death
But now that doesn’t matter.
What matters is that you are here.
And he has no intention of forgiving the great devil who is now gnashing his teeth at him.
– Archdemon Malphas.
【The Traitor Solomon!】
– It’s ‘Wise’.
[Speaking bullshit!]
Malphas moved with his teeth clenched.
In an instant, Malphas’ presence was completely erased from the area.
For him, who has a talent for ambush, getting out of this position is not at all difficult.
No matter how hard he tried, even the traitor Solomon and the warrior who inherited his blood would not be able to stop it.
but.
– Did you think I would be so helpless?
Kwaaang!
As soon as he finished his words, Malphas bounced with a roar.
【Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacs
of Malpas of Malpas, who had disappeared not too long ago, tumbled to the ground with a terrifying scream.
He hurriedly got up without hiding his embarrassment.
The expression that he couldn’t understand why he was like this.
【What is it, why… …]
– It’s not like I didn’t notice your existence at all.
Wise quickly closed the distance with Malpas.
In that short period of time, he leaped into the ‘space’ between him and himself.
Then he lightly flicked his finger.
Ugh.
It was too pure to be called ‘magic’ and at the same time a powerful force.
Mana in the air moves.
Kwajik!
【Kwaaaaaaaaagh!】
Mana lightly shrugged Malphas’ shoulders. It wasn’t that Malphas wasn’t in good shape.
It’s just that Wise’s skills in handling mana are too good.
and at the same time.
– You became too similar to Solomon in the process of parasitizing on the blood and body of ‘Solomon’.
【…What
? in other words….
Wise laughed at Malphas’ incompetence.
– I am now saying that I know a lot about how to neutralize you.
【…!]
If the existence of the Great Devil can be easily erased like this, it is a business that has enough leftovers.
【I can’t stand it… …. ]
– Yes, in case you come out, ‘we’ twisted and remodeled the space-time of the entire tomb.
Do you understand?
Weiss laughed at him.
– You didn’t come out.
A slightly inferior smile, very similar to Mikhail’s.
– It’s what I’ve been waiting for.
not even run away.
He designed the tomb as a demonic ‘prison’ and waited for the moment when it would emerge at the right ‘time’ from Shabti, who shared the price with Solomon.
The Great Demon hidden by the Demon God.
In order to easily hunt the one who would have been the greatest threat than anything else, without the most damage.
【I was waiting for me… …?]
Malphas stuttered and asked.
【Do you dare wait for me, the monarch? My me is just that… ….]
I didn’t think of this ending.
No, it shouldn’t end like this.
I’ve never thought of such a meaningless and pitiful end… ….
[I can’t admit it!]
Malphas stood up as if screaming. It’s a damaged body, if you recover and face it again… …!
【…Huh?]
At that moment, Malphas realized.
There is no recovery.
The shoulder that had been crushed earlier was not regenerating.
what is this… …?
– I told you that you look alike.
Then Wise reached out with a cold smile.
– It’s too obvious how to neutralize you, Malphas. Rather, the past was more difficult to deal with.
【…Ah.]
Malphas looked at my body.
I don’t know about the past, but my current body came from ‘Solomon’.
And Solomon has made numerous preparations for this moment.
Originally, his descendants through bloodlines should also have been under his control… ….
【Oh, no. No no…!]
At that moment, Malphas realized.
That everything he had planned through him had gone awry.
Even in its worst form.
Rather than being controlled, Solomon’s descendants became the worst variables and came to oppose him as ‘heroes’.
And he… ….
【No no no no! It can’t be! I am…! It’s Malpas! Lord of ‘Pain’! I…!】
“Oh, that’s a lot to say.”
Then a groaning voice was heard.
The voice of a damn warrior that makes your teeth tremble just by hearing it.
Son of Solomon.
“Don’t introduce me, Malpas. I’m Mikhail Walpurgis. I’m the adversary of the Demon God that you guys were so worried about… ….”
Well, since it’s a very old demon, I don’t know if you even know the term hero.
While muttering those words, he extended his staff to Malphas.
“He is the ‘hero’ who will annihilate you.”
And Wise, who saw it, said as if it was absurd.
– I think it’s meant to decorate the finish naturally.
oh this is a bit… ….
