Chapter 256
“Let’s get out of here. shadow. Release the Shadow Sanctuary.”
He lifted Shadow, who had fallen to the ground and was out of breath.
“Are you okay? If you solve it now, that’s… … .”
“doesn’t care. After all, if that thing starts to spread properly, the Shadow Sanctuary and everything will mean nothing.”
Right now, the Shadow Sanctuary is not a barrier to protect us, but an obstacle that cuts off contact with the outside world.
“… … understood.”
Shadow answered in a somewhat subdued voice.
What I heard from the Doctor must have been making my head complicated.
“… … .”
Shadow frowned as he watched the shadow flow toward him.
It seems that the main culprit who is hurting her head right now is being absorbed into her like nothing, and it feels very bad.
‘Is it because I always cover my face with a shadow? Because there is no shadow, it shows on his face what he is thinking.’
haha
Because the whole body is covered with shadows, there is no reason to manage facial expressions.
Since the growth of the body stopped at around elementary school, you won’t be able to move the facial muscles in detail.
It’s just that I can’t manage my facial expression.
“… … hmm.”
Seeing such a shadow, Sein-sama frowned in displeasure.
He wondered if he thought of the shadow blocking his path as an obstacle, but luckily it didn’t seem like that.
“Tsk. Do you even use a curse on a child who is not under the contract?”
It seems that he is angry with the Black Magic Tower, who used a child like Shadow to eat it.
‘… … You seem to be misunderstanding.’
You seem to think of Shadow as a victim.
Certainly, just looking at the doctor’s words and Shadow’s reaction, it’s understandable to think of them as victims.
“Get ready. After 5 seconds, it completely disengages.”
Shadow’s body was once again covered with shadows.
The shadows that formed the sanctuary of the shadows gathered again in the shadows.
Even Shadow’s face was covered with darkness again.
The Shadow Sanctuary has completely disappeared.
“oh. came out quickly… … .”
Captain Charles, who was waiting outside, was about to greet us, but just opened his eyes wide.
“What is that idiot mana? No, I don’t think it’s just made up of mana… … .”
He frowned as he glared at the unstable mana on the brink of runaway spewing out of ‘Karyes’ who came out with us.
“What happened? Did things not go well? What about the Doctor?”
“The Doctor is dead.”
“die? Then what is that energy?”
“I will explain in detail later. I don’t have time to explain now.”
“… … Ok check.”
Captain Charles quickly returned to his usual calm expression.
A unique aura reminiscent of a wolf flows through the mana.
“Did you find all the materials you need?”
“I found it. here. data.”
Captain Charles held out a USB to me.
At first glance, the highest quality USB with strict security.
There must be data about the research conducted in this laboratory in that USB.
“My children brought back other evidence besides this one first.”
Among Captain Charles’ subordinates, there are members who specialize in this type of search.
If that person has searched all over the place and decides they’ve found it all, that’s right, they’ve found it all.
“Then this laboratory really has no value anymore.”
“uh. You don’t have to worry about the lab.”
With this, I can do my best to stop it without any hesitation.
“so. What are you going to do with that? If that thing explodes, I don’t think it’s going to end until this area is blown away.”
“At least a dozen countries will perish.”
“… … On that scale?”
“yes. I’m sure.”
This is also taken to a minimum.
If Caries causes even a second runaway here, one third of the earth’s land area could disappear, let alone 15 countries.
“How are you going to stop that?”
“Just stop it before it explodes.”
It’s like defusing a bomb.
Just as we need to block a bomb before it explodes, we need to stop Karies before it runs out of control.
“Right. If our Binoche uses the power of the family head, that kind of mana lump. Can’t you erase it as it is?”
“impossible.”
Sein-nim, who had been concentrating his eyes on observing Mana all along, replied like a knife.
“That is something of a strange type that has already gone beyond what can be called mana. My sword, Binosugar’s secret sword, can cut mana, but it’s impossible to cut ‘something’ beyond that.”
After Sein-nim clicked his tongue slightly, he glared at the sword he was holding.
He seemed to be lamenting his own lack of strength.

“There’s no way for me to stop that runaway.”
“… … .”
Captain Charles’ expression became serious at Sein-nim’s assertion.
The only hope is gone.
It was a look that thought so.
“You don’t have to worry.”
Looking at Captain Charles like that, I said calmly.
“I have a way.”
“… … there?”
“Hmm.”
Captain Charles was surprised, and Sein-nim laughed as if he was having fun.
Sein-sama didn’t look surprised at all.
Maybe it’s because I knew the official name of ‘Caries’.
Or did he predict it by looking at my calm appearance?
I guess you expected me to have a way.
“What way?”
Sein-nim asked with a calm expression.
How to stop that incomprehensible energy.
He looked very interested in the method.
“sorry. I cannot tell you.”
“… … Hmm.”
What does that mean?
It was a nasal sound with meaning.
“There is no way to tell you exactly. There is not enough time to explain.”
I smiled wryly as I pointed at Karies’ energy sphere, which was still twisting in real time.
“If my predictions are correct, that will explode in the next 10 minutes.”
“I think 10 minutes is enough time to explain.”
“no. It’s not enough.”
I turned my gaze to Sein-sama again.
“There are 10 minutes left before it runs out of control, but Sein-nim needs to get out of here right now.”
“… … .”
Sein-sama’s expression frowned. It was as if he was saying what nonsense he was talking about.
“You are no help, run away. Can I take it in that sense?”
“It can’t be.”
I frantically waved my hand and denied it.
“I have a way to stop that burst of energy. However, if you use that method, there is a high probability that it will affect the ground. It will move along the three passages that connect here and turn the entire area into a mess.”
“So you’re saying that we have a role to prevent secondary damage from you?”
“yes.”
He then turned his gaze to Captain Charles and Shadow.
“Sein. Captain Charles. and shadow. The three of you, please guard each secret passage.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
The three were silent.
He understood what he meant, but his expression showed that there was something he didn’t understand.
“… … Luan. Did you intend to die?”
Sein-nim threw a fastball.
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Don’t be shy. There’s no way this place will be fine if there’s an aftermath that blows the area around the secret passageway.”
Sein-sama’s eyes shone sharply.
“Then, of course, you, who will stay here, won’t be safe either. Was I wrong?”
“… … .”
I was silent.
To tell the truth, it is not.
The method I’m going to use causes a huge aftermath, but it doesn’t cause any damage to me.
You have to overdo it to some extent, but you won’t die.
So, the answer to that question is simply no.
If you answer sincerely, Sein-sama will understand.
Because Sein-nim’s eyes are not a knothole that can’t grasp the truth or lies.
‘but… … .’
Suddenly, I had this thought.
Could this be some kind of opportunity?
‘A golden opportunity to end my life as Luan Palatia.’
When this case is over, I have to go back to Korea.
She takes off the mask of Luan Palatia and returns to Shin Ha-yul.
Before that, it is necessary to exit the fictional character named Luan Palatia.
That’s neat in many ways.
‘I’m sorry to Sain-nim and Stella, but… … .’
this is the best
Because I can’t openly disclose the top-secret information called Shin Ha-yul.
“… … yes.”
I nodded slowly.
“… … You guys!”
The first to react to my answer was neither Sein nor Captain Charles, but Shadow.
“If you die here… … ! Then I… … !”
I forcibly interrupted Shadow’s words and continued.
“sorry. There is only one way. I. Luan Palatia intends to end her life here today.”
“… … !”
“… … .”
To my words, the three people reacted in various ways.
Sein-nim lowered his head with a sad expression.
Captain Charles stuck to his expressionless expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Shadow shook his shoulders as if realizing something.
‘Did you both notice?’
Among them, I took a closer look at the reactions of Captain Charles and Shadow.
I wonder if they both noticed why I expressed it as ‘life as Luan Palatia’.
“okay. If you’ve made up your mind like that, there’s nothing you can do about it.”
bingo.
First of all, Captain Charles noticed.
If I hadn’t noticed, I wouldn’t have been able to nod my head so meekly at Captain Charles’ personality.
“… … i get it. If that is your choice, I will respect it.”
Judging by how much calmer he was than before, it seems that Shadow noticed it too.
but.
It’s strange that they don’t notice as they both know that I’m ‘Shin Ha-yul’ and not ‘Luan Palatia’.
“… … Seriously.”
Sein-nim lowered his head with a sad expression on his face.
It was a natural reaction for Sein, who did not know that I was ‘Shin Ha-yul’.
“The knight risked his life to protect the people. As a knight, I can’t pour water on that determination.”
Sein-nim sighed deeply and met my eyes with melancholy eyes.
“Luan Palatia.”
“yes.”
Sein-nim approached me and held out his right hand.
I took that hand.
Sein smiled bitterly.
It’s the look of not knowing what to say.
“It felt like I had a son, so I was very happy.”
Sein-sama hugged me in that state.
“I also enjoyed it.”
“… … okay.”
At that time, Kariese’s energy expanded again.
It was a sign that the runaway was getting closer.
“I really don’t have time anymore. You must go.”
Sein-sama fell from my body as it was.
“I won’t say goodbye. I believe this will not be the end.”
“… … yes.”
“Please come back.”
And then, as usual, with a smile that was different from usual, he said that.
“yes. I will definitely stop it.”
I replied and gestured to Shadow.
“Shadow. Send the two of you to their respective secret passages.”
“… … i get it.”
The shadow cast by Shadow covered the two of them.
That was it.
You should have arrived in front of each secret passage by now.
“Shadow. Please take good care of the rest of the aisle. As long as you keep that in mind, I will remove your shadow as promised.”
“… … that promise. I will definitely remember it.”
“okay.”
Finally, even Shadow disappeared.
Only me and Karies’ runaway energy were left in the lab.
“Whoa… … .”
I took a deep breath and glared at the energy of Karies, which was slowly twisting and expanding.
“I never thought I would use this in such a dramatic situation.”
Taking a deep breath, I put on A.S.
Then, I took out the ‘Caylum’ from Aes and held it in my hand.
widely!
The sound of the staff hitting the ground echoed softly.
“Miho.”
The red jewel hanging around my neck responded.
Factio.
Miho, who is connected to me by spirit, answered my call and appeared next to me.
Miho climbed on top of my shoulder and flirted with a charming voice.
“assistant. Please take good care of me.”
As if Miho begged him to leave it to him, he cried out vigorously.
Flash!
At that moment, light flowed from Caylum.
Red symbolizes flame.
Above the light, a Moebius pattern representing the ring of awakening rotated.
The ring of awakening was rotating as one with Caelum in earnest.
i was able to figure it out myself
My current condition is at its peak.
‘now.’
Keeping his current senses intact, he took out a stone from inside Aes.
A shimmering red-shaped stone that resembles a flame.
Too crude to be called a jewel, too beautiful to be called a stone.
Something worthy of being called a work of art.
The symbol of Ignis.
I hold it in my hand
I released the ace as it is.
With this, the symbol of Ignis in his left hand.
In the right hand, Caylum was placed.
With this, all preparations are complete.
All that remains is to pull the trigger of this magic.
“Red is a gift from God that was born only for me.”
The flames emitted by the symbol of Ignis expanded even more as if resonating with Caelum.
