I Became the Fiance of a Crazy Heroine - I Became the Fiance of a Crazy Heroine chapter 176

Chapter 176

The slime dragon instinctively recognized that its own existence was fading away.

The core had already been shattered, and the demonic sword of eternal life, Gilberza, did not respond.

At some point, even the pain faded, and it seemed that all senses were numb.

“I could have been a true dragon… … .”

The red slime gradually becomes mushy and turns into a liquid.

The bones and organs inside were scattered and fragmented.

However, as if the flames had no intention of allowing even that, they clung to him tenaciously and burned them all.

“I can’t die… … .”

No voice came out now.

The body was constantly disintegrating, and the mana flowed out little by little and then stopped.

He wanted to use even the power he had originally, but the slime that lost its elasticity was only evaporated by the flames.

“Crown… uhh… … .”

Slime Dragon belatedly recognized the cause.

As the core shattered, the power of the four major disasters was dispersed, and Gil Verza was absorbing the remnants.

Even though it was shattered and lost its original form, it was taking away its own strength.

“Big uh… drank… … .”

I had expected the demon to play tricks.

He thought that he would not be attacked because he always had it in mind, and that he would be able to suppress it with his own power.

However, it was impossible to even resist because he was aiming for a weakened gap.

“Do something like this… Big!”

The slime dragon’s body becomes completely liquid and covers the land.

Not even a trace of his bones and organs remained, and he could no longer find his magic power.

Harnette watched the process for a while, then turned her back, setting up a wall of flames.

“Are you trying to stop it from coming?”

“It doesn’t look very good.”

“You have become more cautious.”

“Is it because you fell down once? Why don’t you die and come back to life?”

“… Wouldn’t it be a bit difficult to come back to life?”

“So you should have a good one. Isn’t it easy to get it back once you lose it?”

Harnette smiled and went back to Shion.

Lesia slowly moved her steps and looked at the two of them.

Harnette was showing a worried look while standing next to Shion.

‘It wouldn’t be easy, it would be impossible.’

Even before he became human, he knew that fact well.

After a creature dies, it cannot be revived no matter what it does.

At least Shion had gone to the point where she was about to die, but she hadn’t reached death.

However, Hanette overcame death and was resurrected stronger.

‘They both transcended providence.’

Providence is the law that maintains this world, and it can never be violated in a normal way.

Herself and Enrite violated the providence by becoming humans from demonic sword selves.

In the case of Shion and Hanette, they existed as human beings who embraced the source.

Even the beginning and the end were different even though they were equally out of the providence.

‘The one who connects the five sources… The one who embraces light and darkness… … .’

Lecia looked back and forth between Shion and Hanette, recalling the words.

That content hadn’t materialized yet, and there was a possibility for those two.

Because they were demonic sword users, each possessed the source of flame and darkness, and equally transcended providence.

‘Hmm… Is there anything left that can threaten humans?’

From noblemtl.net

Judging from the contents alone, there must have been a powerful enemy beyond the slime dragon.

However, the 3 Great Demon Kings and 4 Great Calamities were all annihilated, and only the weakened Demon God remained.

In addition, he would never regain his strength again because he had broken the last artificial sword left by the demon god.

‘It’s time and the place hasn’t been decided.’

Predicting the future was also against providence.

In other words, in order to realize the act, difficult conditions or many sacrifices must be premised, or incomplete results may come out.

If you belong to the latter side, wouldn’t it have something to do with the time and place not being mentioned?

‘Delayed for a few hundred years or… It might not be the kingdom of Alain.’

In the first place, humans have a limited lifespan, and demonic swords find another master every time a human dies.

Since time and space were not clearly specified, various possibilities could be foreseen.

Of course, the presence of demons was a little annoying, but the later humans wouldn’t be so weak either.

‘Wait, you’ll find out… … .’

“Did you subdue him?”

Brandis appeared with an ally.

Shion and Enrite tried to get up at the same time, but Brandis waved his hand first to stop them.

“Don’t stop treatment. You can’t be formal on the battlefield, can you?”

Brandis steps slowly and looks around.

On the face of it, there seemed to be no casualties.

However, Shion looked quite tired, and was breathing heavily, drenched in sweat.

“Did black come out again this time?”

“After black came out first, Hanette Adelaira and Lecia Selena finished the subjugation.”

Enrite calmly explained while treating Shion.

Brandis nodded and looked out at the wide spread golden flames.

“Is that magic written by Hanette Adelaira?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Hannette stood up from her seat and answered politely.

Brandis recalls the situation from earlier and is gripped with curiosity.

“Did you block the enemy with fire magic?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“You alone have done what we could not do.”

“I think I was lucky. Other people helped too.”

It was a miracle that he had died in the first place and then came back to life.

In addition, it had become stronger, so it should be seen that it was in fact reborn.

Since Shion was dying, he tried to defy death somehow, and in the end he was able to annihilate even the Slime Dragon.

“Lecia Selena did better than me. Without Lesia Selena, I wouldn’t have been able to survive this far.”

“… Are you referring to White’s younger brother?”

Brandis remembered everything about the battle with the slime dragon.

While blocking the attack, their own side lowered the slime dragon’s mobility, and the side with Shion and Enrite actively launched an offensive.

In particular, the white sword was noticeable, and whenever the color flashed, it mercilessly cut down the slime dragon.

Considering the overall weight, Lesia would have made a lot of contributions.

“I heard the enemy disappeared for a while… How did that happen?”

“that is… I understand that my fiancé is out to capture the enemy.”

Hannette thought about it for a moment before blurting it out.

In order to say that Shion risked his life to attack the enemy, he would have to explain that he died and was resurrected.

In the end, the process itself could have been criticized because it stemmed from emotional behavior.

It’s a pity just to watch it quietly, but I didn’t want to make it difficult.

“… Did you overdo it alone?”

Brandis felt a strange sense of difference, but did not point it out.

There was a hole in Harnett’s armor, and Shion felt as if his stamina and mana were exhausted.

If Shion had fought until that point, there would have been a reason for that.

Perhaps because Hanette was seriously injured, she could not hold back her anger and poured out powerful techniques.

‘It would be embarrassing to say in this place.’

If he had been alone with himself, he might have been honest.

However, in this place, not only himself, but also other knights were together.

In particular, Hanette would consider Shion’s position first, so she had no choice but to hide it unconditionally.

‘I can’t break the oath I made.’

The oath made to appoint Shion as Cetinos Quasar was also related to Hanette.

At least, the condition that Hanette could be protected first was attached, so Zion accepted the king’s order.

In addition, Hanette had no choice but to fight together because she was hanging out next to Zion.

All these things are entangled in the oath, but how can I punish you for lying?

‘Since the Sillays Knights subdued him… It’s right to pass it even if it’s because of the merits.’

You cannot force truth and loyalty on the people just because you are a king.

Everyone has secrets they want to hide, and you can’t go through them all yourself.

Above all, the two were the children of dukes and marquesses, and since they were knights with reputation and achievements, they had to compromise to some extent.

‘one… That didn’t happen.’

Brandis still hadn’t forgotten the sentences that flowed from the seven demonic swords.

I would have been at least a little relieved if that had been realized now.

However, I couldn’t find even such a sign, and I wondered if my anxiety was only growing.

‘… There is nothing but drinking.’

It may be unnecessary worry.

Maybe the content will never come true, or will it have a different meaning.

If only the demon had been eliminated, he would not have had any regrets.

‘Still, there were no casualties.’

They faced a formidable enemy, but all those who took part in the battle survived.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that the losses suffered by the kingdom of Alain will disappear, but if it hadn’t ended here, it would have suffered more damage.

In addition, since those involved in the oath were safe, they were able to keep their small wish.

‘Can I see the wedding now?’

* * *

The residence of the Duke of Adelaira, Zion’s room.

The personnel dispatched to the Elfran supply base returned to the capital a few days later.

It took quite a bit of time to figure out the fact that the slime dragon had disappeared, and to clean things up.

Of course, formally, Brandis and Juter had to go first, but they deliberately tried to stay longer just in case.

If the slime dragon was alive, it was to subdue it again and completely block the demon from intervening.

“How are you feeling?”

“It has improved a lot.”

“Isn’t everything better?”

“It’s a little sore. Magical power is starting to come out now.”

Shion answered calmly while lying on the bed.

After the slime dragon’s subjugation, he continued to rest, but the fatigue did not go away.

Fortunately, Enritte was regularly checking on her body, so she recovered little by little.

“Isn’t that taking too long?”

“Didn’t you say it would take some time?”

“I mean, can it come back to normal? You should be able to move your body even if your mana is reduced.”

Harnette was lying right next to her and checking on Zion from time to time.

Enrite had said that there were no signs of abnormality, and that her mana was gradually returning.

However, from the standpoint of watching, I was always worried, and on the contrary, I had no choice but to worry.

“I can still move. It’s a little difficult.”

“Ugh… why did you do that Are you relieved to be like this?”

“Then will you just cry there?”

“Hey, Cardinal Selena and Lesia were there. What are Oz and Seran without? You can fight by joining forces, so why go out and make things by yourself?”

“… What do I do when I’m alone? What’s left after your sister’s funeral? Shall I find another woman? What if I die alone for the rest of my life? What should I do?”

“… … .”

Hannette lost her words for a moment and cautiously looked away.

Shion was still looking out the window with a nonchalant expression on his face.

Hanette ponders for a moment, then presses her face toward Shion.

“I am going to sleep. Don’t dry it.”

“Okay, go to bed.”

“… Shouldn’t we say no here?”

“Well… no. You have to grab the opportunity when it comes. It has no meaning after death.”
