Volume 5 - CH 77

Act 5-77: I Will Kill You Mercily

When I opened my heavy eyelids, the first thing I saw was a blood red floor spread before me.

I felt nauseous as if my head got hit by a hammer, my body was enveloped in a cold, uncomfortable feeling, it felt like a huge rock was pressed on my mind.

I moved my head, the only thing that I’m capable off in my current condition,

『Hii!?』

I unintentionally let out a scream. Which was only natural since my lower-half was buried inside muddy meat pillar.

『Have you wokem up already~?』

Standing in front of me was an abberation with head of fish, he pointed the tip of the wand in his right hand onto my throat.

『B-Bho… Arf you?』

I somehow managed to squeeze those words from my parched throat.

Hearing my question, the fish-headed aberration took a step back, placing his right hand on his chest as he bowed respectfully,

『Bonjour, sham land god! I’m Forneus. The ceremony will start in a while but, it’s pleasure to be your acquaintance.』

He introduced himself with a pompous gesture.

Aldebaran kneeled in front of the door behind Forneus with his head hung down then stood up, approached us before kneeling again. And then he returned to his original place after he offered something like a giant umbrella to Forneus.

A woman with head of sea bream and a man with head of beardy blowfish who stood on both side of Forneus then started to strike a strange pose,

『I’m Urokonu! Remember that!』

『I’m Fuguo! Commit that in your memory!』

And introduced themselves in a loud voice.

『Cerefmony!? Whatph happenh to ebheryone?」

『Everyone~? Well, nothing special on everyone else except that angel girl and mountain demo~n』

His wand pointed at a certain direction, and when I looked at that direction,

『SHAR!?』

I raised a scream. Over there, I saw Shar buried inside pillar of meat until just the area above her neck.

Blood was trailing from both her closed eyelids, and judging from the pale color of her face, she was already dead.

『Especially that thing, our work progressed a lot thanks to he~r. Anyhow, we manage to summon two remaining general from the world boundary. And the~n』

He started talking with thrilled face. He kept on and on to the point that I had no idea what he was talking about anymore. Well, Forneus’ voice was nothing but buzzing noise for the current me.

『Right! Right!』

I knew that she had already died. And yet, I couldn’t help but keep calling her name.

『You guys will become the sacrifice to summon the last two genera~l.』

And then, jsut when Forneus pointing his wand to the ceiling and started chanting an aria,

『GUGAGAAAAAAAAAAAAA――‼?』

The pain akin to a stump driven into my nerves assailed my entire body, turning my vision blood red.

The pain, hatred, envy, sorrow, every kind of emotion jumbled in my mind. And then, my body started melting.

（Shar! Shar! Why!? How can they do this to Shar!? What did Shar do to them to deserve this kind of end!）

My mouth had already melted, and amidst my blurry, crimson vision, I shouted those words in my mind. I shouted again, and again.

――That’s something that you know very well, right?

Standing before me was a blonde-haired pompous kid around eight years old with bob cut but then, he answered to my question with rather astonished face. For some reason, I felt a strange sense of rejection when I saw that kid.

（I, know the answer!? Like hell I know!?）

――Oh sure, you’re more than familiar with it. Well, the trigger might be the caprice of that personage. But, You have already met the requirement a long time ago. In short, you’ve fulfilled all the condition that personage has imposed to you. And yet, here you are, still with your lost memories. You’re a coward, a coward of the coward, an irredemable, idiotic coward.

（What do you mean!? What are you trying to say!）

Yup, I hate this kid after all. That was the one thing that I could understand.

――Doesn’t matter, time is running out and you’re going to understand what I mean anyway due to the effect of your connection with that personage, you will be forced to understand even if you don’t want to. Well, that method also has its’ limit but…

（I’ve told you I don’t understand――）

――Let me to give you one last gift. Your nightmarish journey will only end once you face your past properly.

（Nightmarish journey!?）

――Yes. This is only the beginning of you harsh and painful nightmare. As a fellow timid and cowardly human being, you choose the safe path by ignoring your past. Well, it’s time.

After sayign those words, the blonde-haired kid with bob cut kneeling respectfully toward the direction of the door, bowing his head.

That moment, the door opened up slowly, revealing the figure of a youth with foreign sword with ominous looking blade in his right hand.

（――!!!?）

Someone whose name I didn’t know, the figure of strongest existence in my heart.

That black haired youth furrowed, he glared angrily at Forneus.

『There’s a rat intruding this place huh? Quite a skillful concealment skill you got there.』

In respond to Forneus haughty speech, the black haired youth,

「Intruder? Concealment? That’s a misunderstanding on your part. I simply erased my killing intent and walking straight from the front.」

Spat those words.

Forneus frowned upon hearing that answer,

『Aldebaran, kill this lowly tra~sh.』

「As you wish.」

Aldebaran stood on his feet, transforming his head into that of crocodile before rushing toward the black haired youth, swinging his rock-like fist. But, Aldebaran’s log-like arm which should pulverize the black haired youth suddenly bent to the opposite direction.

『Uhm?』

Seeing Aldebaran raised confused voice, the black haired youth clicking his tongue and nailed a casual kick on the former’s abdomen.

Aldebaran’s abdomen exploded from seemingly casual kick, sending his upper body flying backward before he slammed into the rock wall. In the midst of the rain of blood and entrails, the aftermath of the crash shook the entire building.

『That guy is useless! Let me to handle this, Forneus-sama!』

『No, let me to do it――』

And that become ther last words. The next moment, numerous red lines appeared on the surface of Urokonu and Fuguo’s body before they exploded to small pieces by the next second.

『Hnn!?』

Forneus’ eyes opened wide in shock, he retreated as he pointed the tip of his wand toward the black haired youth, alas the black haired youth was already behind Forneus.

「I’m tired of all your small fry rambling.」

The black haired youth walking slowly and then whispered so at Forneus’ ear.

『Y-Y-You are?』

Seeing Forneus tried to wave his fish’s arms, the black haired youth threw the thing he held in his left hand at Forneus,

「These guys were the same as you, they keep rambling on how powerful they are, alas they couldn’t even ract at all, don’t you think that it a bit too boring?」

Forneus was trembling non stop, he looked at the thing rolling before him, it was the head of three faced ogre.Face agaped due to shock, he couldn’t help but calling the name of the head of ogre before him,

『ASURA-SAMA!』

While drenched in sweat akin to waterfall.

「Well I know that this disastrous, hell-like scene in Ket Nya is the result of you guys winning the war. But… Why do I feel sadness instead?」

The black haired youth pointed the tip of his foreign sword at Forneus,

『UHIII!!』

Forneus retreated in hurry as he raised such scream.

「Well, honestly speaking, I’m really pissed off to the point that I wanted you lot, small fry who are not even worth of my attention to suffer for eternity.」

Black aura bursting forth from the foreign sword in the black haired youth’s hand, filling the room as he spoke.

『UGIIIIIIIIIII!』

Forneus who lost his limbs as he tried to escape had already been losing his fighting spirit, and then, the black haired youth grabbed the head of that limbless body.

『Mer… Cy…』

Forneus begged for forgiveness,

「I’ve told you right? I’m seriously pissed off right now. Don’t worry, death will be least of your worries as I’ll make sure that death is a luxury for you.」

The black haired youth refused immediately, and then looking over his shoulder,

「Oi, Beelze! Show this piece of shi*t who doesn’t know his place true hell! Do not hold back and make sure he enjoys it thoroughly! Once you’re done, destroy his soul to pieces!」

『Your wish is my command-dechu.』

The fly-headed monster sucking pacifier who appeared out of nowhere kneeled before the youth as they spoke.

『B-B-BEELZEBU――B!!』

That moment, Forneus’ face was filled with horror as he raised a scream, black mist then started to envelop his body, and then vanished as if he never there.

The black haired youth then walked slowly until he arrived at my side.

「My apologies, your condition already beyond saving.」

『……』

Honestly I don’t care about living anymore, I didn’t want to live in the world without Shar and everyone from monster city.

The youth’s face warped in frustration for the first time as he looked at me,

「I thought that the current you can win this game. I guess it’s my fault for overestimating your power. That’s why――」

The black-haired youth raised the sword in his right hand overhead,

「I will kill you painlessly.」

Then swung down his sword as he spoke.

Confirmed the physical death of Gilbert Loto Amelia. Activating the 【Soul Travenger】.

――――――Success!

The soul of Gilbert Loto Amelia would be sent back from the present into a random point in the past at a fixed interval.
