Admission is a waste of time (311)
Lesson 61. The Innocent Sinner – 1
It looked like a half-and-half mix of a phoenix and a human.
The body of the creature was condensed with flames that were so red that they were almost blood red. The creature’s stature, which had been vaguely felt when it was a giant sun, became a pressure accompanied by heat that crushed the entire group, including Ban Yu-won.
It was the moment when winter, which had been searching for the prominence dimension, disappeared again.
“Then, as promised.”
Dokgo Yeon jumped up and swung his sword, causing heat to split and a path to open up towards the bastard.
The sight of Dokgoyeon running towards the follower of ten thousand years who fell from the sky, lightly stepping on the empty space, evoked awe not only in Ban Yu-won but also in everyone.
―Ha! Even so, I’m just a slacker from the martial arts world who can’t even enter the upper levels… …!
“joy.”
Swords and flames clashed.
The flames that seemed like they would melt everything died down the moment they made contact with Dokgo Yeon’s sword.
Dokgo Yeon cut off the astonished Constellation’s right shoulder and charged forward, but the Constellation seemed to have realized something and continuously emitted flames to drive away her energy and brought down the foot it had raised high above her head.
-Woooosh!
There was no way Dokgo Yeon would be hit by such an obvious attack, but the problem was the aftermath.
Shati fiercely revealed this as she wiped away the heat and pressure that weighed down the atmosphere with the movement of the bastard’s legs, cleanly using an explosion caused by her own power.
“What the hell are you doing, you constellation guys… …! When you’re huge, it would have been better if you had a bigger target!”
-Don’t avoid being cheeky!
“A thunderbolt who runs wild with only the power he was lucky enough to obtain!”
-Bam, bang!
The battle between Dokgoyeon and Seongjwa continued fiercely.
Dokgoyeon’s attacks were never missed, but her sword, which could kill everything in an instant, only caused shallow wounds to the constellation, and the constellation’s attacks looked like they would tear her apart in an instant if they touched her even a little, but she was able to dodge them all because her movements were so large.
―I want to get what I want, so why are you, the likes of you, standing in my way――!
“Your eyes are too high for your position!”
The problem is the aftermath.
Every time the constellation rose, the ground shook as if an earthquake were about to occur, and the heat that could burn a person to death continued to fly, forcing Shati to grit her teeth and repeatedly snap her fingers to counter it.
“How does he dodge all that at close range?! It’s so hard to even react when watching from far away!”
“Shati, keep holding me back like that. I’ll have to shoot at least once just to get my act together.”
The women of Ban Yu-won know, at least vaguely, what he feels for Dokgo Yeon.
As if to prove his eyes, Dokgo Yeon stood up coolly and blocked the movement of the constellation alone, so Mira, who was very jealous, picked up her bow to do something about it.
It is impossible for her changeling to do anything about the flames that are too strong to dare to surpass, but if it is a curse imbued with the power of the constellation, then somehow… … .
-Oh my, this side is fun too~~.
“… … Gravekeeper?”
At that moment, Mira’s eyebrows furrowed at the voice of the gravedigger of Purgatory who suddenly flew in.
“What’s so funny? If you’re watching, try putting in more effort.”
―Sorry, I’m busy blocking this place right now, so I don’t have the strength to give you more. There really isn’t a better slave than me.
“Speak so I can understand what you are talking about… … !”
―Our cute Mira, cheer up. Tell your husband about me~~.
With those words, the constellation’s presence completely disappeared.
Just in case, I observed her body and saw that the power the constellation had given her had not disappeared, but the connection with her felt so faint that I thought that perhaps this was the end of my contract with the gravedigger.
‘Why…? Could it be that it’s not just that constellation that’s acting up, but something has happened that would make all the constellations go crazy?’
how?
Who dares to speak to the constellations?
No, moreover, not all the constellations are in the same place… … .
Just as my mind was starting to become complicated, I came to my senses again when I saw the follower of the eons radiating heat from the sky.
Right now, the priority was to take down that damned bastard who was working with Prominence to grind up the fairies as sacrifices.
“Huh!”
But unfortunately, the arrow she shot evaporated and disappeared in the heat surrounding the creature before it could even reach the constellation.
Even though Dokgo Yeon aimed for the moment when he could dispel his heat, she couldn’t even handle the heat from his body with her strength.
Of course, the curse contained in the arrow remained intact and penetrated the bastard.
-Ugh… … !
It is a mental curse similar to the one that Mira suffered in the past.
Although he exudes an aura that is physically and magically untouchable, doesn’t his behavior pattern up until now seem strangely immature?
It was an attack attempted because she was afraid that if she dug into his mind, he would reveal his weaknesses, as she had read into his childishness and peculiar obsession that could be said to be similar to that of students attending the academy.
―What, why all of a sudden… … Nooooooooooooooooooo!
“Huh? Why is it like that?”
But it was effective beyond Mira’s expectations.
The moment the curse took effect, the constellation began to scream, clutching its head, and spewing flames in all directions.
It was a little cute to see Mira looking surprised even after shooting herself.
―No, nononononononono! He couldn’t have lied! Tell him he’s not dying, that can’t be true!
Fireworks went off like firecrackers.
The fragments of the shattered great sword floating in the air hit it and scattered, creating smaller fragments.
“hmm?”
It was shocking that the mental barrier of the transcendent constellation was so weak, but considering that the constellation had never descended in its true form before, this was probably the first time the party had learned of this fact.
In any case, there is no way Dokgo Yeon would miss that fatal loophole.
Considering that the enemy would come to his senses the moment he attacked, he stabbed the enemy in the heart with the short sword with as much force as he could.
Concentrated death flowed through the sword and strangled the bastard.
―Kak, haaaaaah! I told you not to!

“Huh?!”
However, immediately after, Dokgo Yeon had to jump into the air and retreat without being able to pull out his sword.
Perhaps her attack had triggered the constellation’s trauma, as it erupted in flames all over its body along with a horrible scream that was like its last words.
“kite!”
“… … It’s okay, okay.”
Even though he retreated the moment he recognized the attack, his right arm that had been holding the short sword was burned black along with his clothes. Dokgo Yeon looked down at his arm expressionlessly for a moment, then took out a candy that he had kept tightly hidden inside his sleeve, threw it in his mouth, and bit into it.
‘Sweet. Just like him… … .’
Dokgo Yeon’s facial expression, which was about to melt for a moment, returned to normal after realizing the current situation.
If she were an ordinary person, no matter how much life-giving candy she was, she wouldn’t be able to regenerate her burned arm, but she was a warrior who could control energy.
As the clothes disappeared below the shoulders and the burnt outer skin was pushed away in an instant, revealing white, bare skin on the arms, the onlookers were able to breathe a sigh of relief.
“You’re piercing the self-defense mechanism so easily. Those constellations… … .”
Dokgo Yeon realized that his ability to control energy was still lacking.
Self-defense is an aura that protects the body.
In particular, her aura was a technique close to the power to destroy the attacking energy and block the possibility of getting hurt, but she easily broke through it and burned my arm, so I couldn’t help but acknowledge her firepower.
No, rather, I think her ability to suppress the fire and only burn the skin and muscles is amazing.
The constellation that had given off such energy was screaming as if Dokgo Yeon was not even in sight.
―Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! Oh, no! Don’t lock me up… … Let me out! You! I’ll kill you! I’ll definitely burn you to the ground someday!
“A childlike appearance.”
Dokgo Yeon blurted out as he looked at the pitiful sight of the constellation crying with a huge hole in its chest.
It was a great pity for him to lose his beloved sword.
What a humiliation it could be, that an attack that sacrificed such a small sword could not completely silence the bastard.
‘Still, I guess I can kill him somehow.’
When I first saw the sun rise in the sky, I thought I might die here.
It was a disparaging remark toward his colleagues who had grown rapidly in the meantime.
Not only Lucelle, but also the help of the fairies including Mira, and Asha’s growth in reproducing the dragon’s breath that even she could not dare to block is amazing.
No, in Asha’s case, it’s more like Ban Yu-won fed her everything rather than her own growth.
And of course, I grew up too――.
-Ugh, kuaaaah!
After a brief moment of reflection, Dokgo Yeon, who had recovered, stretched out his right hand into the air and created a sword made of the energy of death. At that moment, the constellations also showed a change.
Surprisingly, he put his hand into the hole in his chest and grabbed the ‘something’ inside and blew it out.
-Wow!
Perhaps it must have been the source that suppressed him and at the same time maintained him.
The flame that had been dying down began to burn explosively again, but an uneasy trembling could be detected from it.
―Now… … I’m finally coming to my senses.
The flames that covered the constellation changed its appearance once again.
It now appeared almost human, but instead of a right and left arm, two large orbs emerged and swirled around its torso.
I’ve never seen Dokgoyeon before, but it looked similar to how the former head of Prominence handled the Orb.
―Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve come out as myself, so I made a mistake. I looked embarrassed. But it doesn’t matter since I’m going to kill you all anyway.
“Don’t worry, you’re already embarrassed enough, you idiot.”
With those words, the sword he swung was blocked by the orb.
The bastard tried to burn Dokgoyeon as it was, but the next moment, the sword he thought he had blocked passed through his lower abdomen.
“I say it again.”
After the chest, legs, and back, now the head.
Dokgo Yeon’s momentum was fierce as he attacked the guy as if he was going to see how long he had to stab and cut him to kill him.
Even though he had lost his sword, he had created the Sword of Death by gathering all the energy he had recovered from eating the Candy of Life, and it was flying with more power than before, severing the bastard’s limbs one by one.
“You are nothing but a thunderbolt.”
-asleep!
An orb the size of a human head flew in, covered in flames, but Dokgoyeon was not there.
A battlefield in the air filled with death and flames, with fine metal particles flying through the air.
The constellation’s gaze suddenly became fixed on it.
What is this?
Since when have you been surrounding me?
-Yeon, it’s okay now.
“I wanted to finish it.”
But I know that the bastard is so powerful that if I continue like this, I could lose my life in a single attack.
Dokgo Yeon threw his sword with all his remaining energy, shackling the man in the air and then leaving the battlefield.
―Ugh―― Are you finally out of strength, you little bastard――!
“Name it, Heavy Rain.”
The one who answered the constellation’s call while pulling out the sword stuck in his chest was not the retreating Dokgo Yeon, but Ban Yu-won on the ground.
The iron powder that had been covering all directions since some time ago――no, it had melted and liquefied in the flames of the constellation, and all at once covered and pierced the constellation.
The shattered great sword had been moving under Ban Yu-won’s control until now, when it had turned into countless fragments.
-Huh… … Ugh… … !
While Dokgo Yeon was fighting him and making holes all over his body, Ban Yu-won resonated with the fragments of the shattered Rain Sword and concentrated on pouring them out all at once.
And now, each one of them, particles too fine to be seen with the eye, had turned into liquid, flowing through the holes in his body and filling it up, turning him into a lump of metallic liquid.
Only then could Ban Yu-won be certain of victory.
“Whew, I barely won.”
―Why… … doesn’t it melt, beggar… … ?
“Well, that’s because there’s an owner of an undying flame here.”
As for the preliminary work that had to be done to ‘resonate’ with Ban Yu-mi… … I didn’t want to explain much.
However, the undying flame and the half-circle’s ‘Shin-sal’ were in perfect harmony, and they were on the verge of strangling the main body of the constellation.
And there… … .
“Can you lend me some ice? Will you kiss me too?”
After the dragon combination transformation was released, Aire, who was exhausted, turned her head towards Ban Yu-won as if reading his mind, and Ban Yu-won shook his head in response.
“No, luckily I have ice.”
“… … .”
Ignoring the gazes flying towards me from Aire, I borrowed the ice magic of the Frost Fortress, one of the members of the combined robot.
In addition to that, there is the Diamond, the Starlight, the Rebellion, and finally the Judgement.
I threw the Requiem, which had all the concepts in it, with all my might.
The sword covered in cold ice advanced in a straight line connecting the ground and the sky, and was stuck in a lump of iron at the end.
The entire constellation of flames was frozen.
