2nd Rank Has Returned - 2nd Rank Has Returned chapter 307
307 – Fight for it-2
The fight continues in the void.
The fierce battle between light and darkness, the unique battle taking place in the universe, has begun once again.
The aspect seemed like a whistle for a moment, but Ariasviel was extremely objective.
‘…If you play a long game, you will never win.’
At the point when the world was destroyed, all physical processes that we as humans basically recognized became meaningless.
As if I was submerged in black water, I couldn’t breathe normally, and there was no ground to stand on, so I had to vent my aura one by one.
Even though she can use future experience and technology now, Aria was in critical condition, having exhausted all her mana and stamina.
No matter how great hardware and software it was equipped with, there was no way it would have the strength to fight unless there was no fuel left.
‘…If this feather wasn’t stuck right now, it wouldn’t have been easy to hold on.’
Aria Spiel looked at the red feathers on her arms.
If Lumine and Rios had not had this Feather of Holy Blood Fighting, even Black Arya would certainly not have been able to endure and her soul would have been torn apart by the darkness and perished.
‘..When I tried to protect it, I was actually protected.’
Even with Angela’s help, there was no way Lumine would have enough strength left to pluck out her new feathers.
When I repelled the Demon King’s attack, thinking it was a reckless choice, my fallen comrades plucked out the feathers that were keeping them alive and pinned them on me.
‘…It’s because he trusted me, just like Leo.’
In addition to the s*x and blood fighting skills, the remaining vitality of her family made Arya Spiel what she is today. She believed that she would fight without losing and she was entrusted with this power.
Quaaa!!
The demon king’s magic sword struck Aria, who was prepared.
Although there was no proper conductor, Leo’s body had already transcended to the point where he could not be called human due to the power of the Demon King.
Now, Aria’s body had the same strength as her Holy Sword, and had been given a fire-like property, so it had to be struck down with more power than that.
‘…The purity of the magic sword has increased…!’
As Leo’s remaining thoughts said, the Demon King has already absorbed the existence of Leonardo.
Not only the purity of the magic sword, but even the basics of ‘deepening the basics’ were completely established as his own.
Furthermore, this world is now covered with a being called the Demon King, and even saying that it is a space that exists for the Demon King would be an understatement.
If Aria’s current state is inexhaustible, then the Demon King’s power is practically unlimited.
Even if it was a short-term war, it was difficult to lose in output.
“Why are you doing that? “This is why even your beloved husband will laugh at you.”
The Demon King looked down at the hero pitifully and did not stop his ridicule.
Ariasviel Reinhardt, the antagonist who caused a major setback in his plans, could not help but be entertained by his revenge on the erroneous hero who could not possibly have existed in the first place.
It was unexpected that she was still alive, but that didn’t mean she was in great danger.
In the first place.
“Do you think you can restore this world even if you defeat me?”
There is no such thing as Leo’s personality inside the Demon King. Even the black stone Aria was holding did not feel like a sage.
Even if Aria Spiel overthrew the Demon King with her miracle, there was no place for her to return to.
Whether he won or lost this fight, there was nothing left for the error called Ariasviel.
“The difference in skills is obvious at first glance, so why do they do this?”
The Demon King was a rebellion that could not be understood by any knowledge or emotion. Even though I acquired a human self, I could not understand the tribe of warriors.
I was uncomfortable because I didn’t understand.
My human intellect was screaming at the devil to eliminate that existence even for a moment.
“…Reason?”
Aria was dumbfounded and asked back in a dull voice.
No matter how many times she got angry, the intent of that question couldn’t help but be shocking to her.
“You should give the reason… The reason why you did this!”
The thing that Ariasviel couldn’t understand was the same.
Why does she want to destroy the world so much, and why did she have to destroy Leonardo and even her husband’s parents?
There was no way for Aria to understand the malice of the concept of the devil.
“…Ha.”
But soon Ariasviel burst into laughter.
Aria suddenly realized that there could be different interpretations from that question.
I couldn’t answer the question of why they were fighting because the logic was conflicting.
“I asked why we fight a fight we can’t win?”
I clearly knew the answer to the question of whether I should challenge a battle I had no chance of winning. The man who was currently using it as the devil’s vessel informed me of its meaning at every moment.
“At the point you ask that, you can’t say you have absorbed Leonardo.”
If the Demon King understood Leonardo’s life, there was no way he could ask such a ridiculous question.
From that unexpected question, Ariasviel was able to find victory in this fight for the first time.
“No, there is no such thing as a fight that cannot be won in the first place.”
Ariasviel’s holy sword was covered with white aura.
If the attack with the new idea I just came up with fails, I might have to continue the fight without victory.
‘…Has Leo always felt like this?’
I was reminded of the sense that her position had been reversed in Leonardo’s sparring.
From the different mana amount to the physical strength and environment, to Leo, the hero Aria would have been an unreasonable and overwhelming enemy like the Demon King.
Nevertheless, Leo did not give up and continued to fight, and at the same time saved the world and even saved the life of his rival.
It showed what true victory is.
‘I…!’
When I think of that, my courage rises.
I feel that this miserable life is worth burning. The power to wield a sword is infused from a dying life.
The will that seemed to break was welded with fighting spirit and became stronger.
‘Never…!’
The devil moved first. Even time outside of Aria moved quickly. It moved, erasing space.
The movement of the body, not magic, was enough. Destruction was contained in the fist of a ‘vessel’ rather than a magic sword.
This vessel has already achieved a status comparable to that of a god.
It was clearly visible to the devil.
Even if it is as strong as a holy sword, an attack that will crush even space and time, a future in which the regime pierces the chest, shatters the heart and suffocates the soul.
That future is contained in your fist.
That’s why Aria swung her holy sword.
“…It finally worked.”
Wow! The Demon King’s fist flew upward in an instant. The fist that had been filled with only displeasure opened in shock.
The case where the attack fails was not entirely unthinkable. Even if I failed, it wasn’t a problem.
An attack at a level that would destroy the world was nothing more than a basic attack for a complete demon lord.
For the Demon King, Aria was nothing more than a sudden ember that was about to go out.
It was supposed to be like that.
‘…Playback is slow.’
The regeneration of her hands slowed down. The cracked hand was slowing down in regeneration, as if divinity was acting on the demon.
The Demon King could not help but feel embarrassed by the results. The reason I chose this bowl in the first place was because it was resistant to divinity, and the choice was so perfect that it could be said to be excellent.
“Why are you surprised? “They said there was no chance of winning.”
Like Baek A-ria, the harsh words are hurled out in a loud tone.
The idea for this technology originated from Baek Aria. An unprecedented technology that has never been seen before.
aaah!!
The slashing continues once again. The attack was faster and sharper than the first successful attack, and precise movements were made with momentum.
‘…The power itself…!’
Feeling threatened, the Demon King quickly dodged the slash. In the first place, the Demon King’s body reached complete immortality.
Even though he was free from the shackles of death, he was afraid of his wounds. For the Demon King, that was both a humiliation and another fear.
‘Does it mean that I grew because I crossed the firing line?
Just thinking about the process of overcoming extinction was not unusual.
Even before her return, Arya Spiel moved while time was frozen, and as a result, the vessel that contained her self was destroyed along with it.
Leonardo, his vessel, tried again and again to defeat Ariaspil, and even ended up regressing.
‘…I’m getting stronger even at this moment.’
This was not a problem that ended in a dramatic awakening. Ariasviel, who was flying now, was able to understand when he saw the slash.
Power, speed, precision, the more I flew, the more I broke the limits and advanced. Even in a situation where even the power delivered by Lumine and the others was being depleted, Aria’s onslaught showed no sign of stopping.
“…I have to admit it.”
I was so intoxicated by her becoming a transcendental person that I forgot my natural awareness. The person threatening him now, even if it was a mistake, was once a warrior who succeeded in killing him.
It was natural for the Demon King to take advantage of the current situation and attack strategically.
Soon, dozens of illusion-like magic swords formed around the Demon King.
A magic sword containing compressed darkness used to destroy the world. At the point when it killed all the humans in the world, the material called resentment was overflowing.
“I will not let down my guard.”
The magic swords were fired all at once like shells were fired. Although it was slow compared to the power attack, the magic sword was fired at Ariasviel at a high speed comparable to stopping time.
Containing control from a distance was the most ideal safety measure for the Demon King.
Because there is no direct contact, one’s own vessel remains intact, and at the same time, it takes away the stamina of the corresponding Ariasviel.
As of now, Ariasviel cannot attempt a long-distance attack that is stronger than the magic sword. Even if she tried, Aria’s mana was not infinite.
In contrast, the Demon King had an abundance of resources, so even if he evaded it, it was a battle where all he had to do was duplicate the Demon Sword from that location and fire it out.
But.
Whaaahhh…!
It was an instant.
The Demon King had to understand that monstrous response with his own eyes. Even if he wanted to deny it, he had no choice but to acknowledge what was happening before his eyes.
The magic swords that rained down like a shower disappeared following the trajectory of the holy sword. According to the small amount of error, the magic swords that had flown ahead were swept away one after another, completely eliminating the magic swords.
“…I didn’t eliminate it…”
The Demon King briefly repeated while looking at the light of the holy sword. If it was purified as divinity, Ariasviel’s remaining power would inevitably decrease.
Nevertheless, Ariasviel was overflowing with vitality right now. Rather, compared to the first time, the more the demon sword was purified, the more brilliant the divine power released from Aria became.
Soon after seeing the phenomenon, the Demon King had no choice but to realize his principles.
“What’s wrong? “You knew from the beginning that Leonardo had the qualifications to be a warrior.”
Because he was the devil, he understood it best. Since he knew from the beginning that he was Ruben’s reincarnation, he was even more obsessed with Leo’s body as a vessel.
It was a warning that if Leo were to become a complete hero, he would become more fearful than Aria as the Demon King.
But that guess was a serious misjudgment.
“If you are also using Leo’s mana, wouldn’t it be impossible to replace it with divinity through the holy sword?”
It wasn’t impossible, but it wasn’t something that could have been predicted.
In the first place, it was impossible based on common sense to have two heroes, so it was basically a topic that could not even be touched.
The divine power that controls egoless demonic energy and mana as if it were a spirit and turns it into divinity was a gamble that only Aria could have attempted.
“More than anything.”
As if to provoke, Ariasviel raised the holy sword and waved it. The Holy Sword, which had been burning white, was soon covered with black stones and turned black.
“If you had fought with Leo, you would have killed me.”
It was Aria’s sincere words before the provocation.
If it had been Leo, she would not have been swayed by such a shallow trick.
“…This… Cocky b*tch…!”
The Demon King gradually became shaken.
“Who can say anything!!”
Ariasviel did not stop.
Now, the miracle has begun.
