Part 2 Episode 68
summer legacy
“W-what is it?”
“My stomach… !”
“It explodes!”
“shit! Evade quickly!”
The wizards of the Magic Tower, who were watching the airship exploding on the ground, all lost their minds.
How can one maintain composure when a ship the size of a castle falls from the sky in pieces?
They all pour down, engulfed in enormous flames.
It was a sight as if a meteor shower had fallen.
But just one.
Guy just stood there and smiled happily, as if everything had gone well.
“Good! “I can sort it all out by now.”
Guy took a deep breath and used all his magic power to cast the spell.
Open.
Kukukuk!
At that moment, the summoned iron door opened even wider.
Wow-
Part of the monster’s body that was writhing beyond it was slowly revealed.
Multiple eyes clinging to each other, creating a bizarre yet terrifying appearance.
“That…” !”
“A monster from outer space that I only heard about… .”
“No, is it a fragment of God…?” !”
The wizards who saw this could not help but gasp.
At one point, they too had heard about it while studying wizard history.
In the beginning, the God of Creation existed, but when he confronted the Demon God, his body was broken and scattered throughout the universe, and some of it flowed out of the universe and turned into strange monsters.
Unable to reach the hands of law and providence, they are forced to live in a peculiar form, suffering from pain and being a life, but not a life.
That was it.
The problem is that what is now revealed is only a small part of it.
What will happen if its true nature is revealed in its entirety? I couldn’t imagine it at all.
Degurrr-
Eyes larger than those of a dozen or so men combined rolled to one side.
What I could see was a crashing airship.
Then, when the airship reached a certain point.
Destroy it.
The monster roared towards the sky, twisted its numerous tentacles together like a twist and struck the airship.
Kwaaaaang!
In just one attack, the shattered fuselage was split exactly in half.
Puff puff puff-
Other tentacles followed and shot down other fragments from the air.
So much broken debris poured down the canyon.
As each piece of debris fell, the ghost castle shattered, and soon the entire canyon and its entirety fell into the darkness.
“… her.”
“I don’t know if I’m dreaming…” .”
While the wizards were amazed at the incredible sight that could only be seen in mythology, they were able to sigh in relief that the battle was finally over.
However, even after showing off such great prowess, Guy still didn’t look good.
Because the people I was looking for were nowhere to be seen.
I could see Tasha landing slowly among the debris, but I couldn’t see the other two.
“… “Where is Elric?”
* * *
“Tsk… !”
Elric stumbled, holding his forehead due to a moment of dizziness.
My head felt like it was going to explode in pain.
『It just hurts. I tried so hard to squeeze it.』
Overheating of the magic stone and magic circuit.
It was so hot that I thought my body would burn at any moment.
The pain was worse than when dealing with the golden lion.
Elric tried to control his body somehow, but he couldn’t concentrate because his mind was dizzy.
Rather, it feels like my stomach is turning.
『Tsk! It’s annoying.』
Mephisto clicked his tongue at the sight, then stretched out his hand towards Elric.
『Stay still.』
What are you going to do?
Before Elric could question, the seal of original sin suddenly burst into light.
Sigh-
The magic energy that started from the seal suddenly moved quickly through the body, quickly cooling down the overheated magic stones and magic circuits.
Thanks to this, Elric’s mind became clearer and he had no choice but to open his eyes wide.
『It’s a sign of a morbidity syndrome. If you stretch your body beyond its limits, that’s likely to happen. And since I had to endure the heat of ‘summer’, my body was bound to be a mess.』

[How did you do it?]
“what?”
『The seal. You’re even using magic, right?』
[joy! What kind of magic is this? Cooling system is the most basic step in preventing overheating. Memorize it.]
Elric looked at Mephisto with strange eyes.
I say it’s not a big deal, but I knew very well how detailed control this work required.
It was an incredible feat to produce such an effect with only a handful of seal magic.
‘After all, the Great Demon King is the Great Demon King…? .’
It was to the point where I couldn’t help but feel admiration.
Did he read Elric’s eyes like that?
Mephisto’s nose turned slightly red, unusual for him, and he turned his head and cleared his throat.
『Hmm! Did you get something on your face?』
[For the first time, Mephie looks amazing.]
『What is great? With just this… .』
[what? Are you feeling uncharacteristically embarrassed?]
『Who is embarrassed? When the King was young! Even though I go through all these hardships, I always wake up feeling refreshed after just one day of sleep… !』
[Ah, nyuninyun.]
『Still, this guy!』
Why can’t I use my energy because a nobleman who lives for his own pride is instead laying the foundation for me?
Elric seemed to have seen something unexpected and was about to make fun of Mephisto.
Break!
Suddenly, a sound as if something was breaking came from inside my body.
“uh… ?”
“hmm?”
Elric and Mephisto both looked at each other with ominous thoughts in mind.
I soon noticed that there was a crack in the magic stone near my heart.
Magical organ injured?
It was something that could never be easily overcome.
You could easily lose your magic.
The moment when Elric was examining the magic stone with a puzzled expression.
Paaaat!
Before that, a strong light began to emanate from Shina’s seal.
Hwaaaaaaa!
Then, when the light completely disappeared.
The first thing Elric saw was a green hill under a clear sky.
Just looking at the lush green sprouts growing luxuriantly made me feel at ease both mentally and physically.
And that’s the end.
There was a small driftwood.
Standing right next to me was a young man who looked vaguely familiar.
“Arceus… ?”
Elric looked at his face and tilted his head.
Because he looked much younger than I thought.
“You’re here. “I was waiting.”
Contrary to his first impression of him looking haggard for some reason, he certainly looked lively when he was young.
Plus, a smile that is as heartwarming as the warm spring season.
but.
“huh? “Why is your expression like that?”
Arceus tilted his head instead of welcoming Elric.
Because Elric was wary of him like a poisoned cat.
Then Arceus belatedly realized why Elric was acting like that and burst out laughing lightly.
“Pahaha! “Do you really think I will take the same test again as last time?”
“… “Then isn’t it?”
Arceus’ arrangement.
It was really the worst. Even better than Otto Hahn’s ones.
So, I wondered if there was another plan this time.
Arceus shook his head calmly.
“Don’t worry. As I said back then, there is no more ‘spring’ test.”
“then… ?”
“Why did you come?”
Nod!
“well. “Why did you come?”
Elric narrowed his brows at Arceus’ zen-like attitude, but then his thoughts came to him.
Destruction of the magic stone.
The luminescence of Shina’s seal.
‘The sound of the magic stone breaking was like the sound of a seed breaking… ?’
There were so many things that were strange that it could hardly be called a case of jaundice.
So conclusion.
“… “It’s evolution.”
“right.”
Arceus nodded.
“Youth. “It’s Shin-ah’s new name.”
“youth… .”
Elric somehow felt like his heart was itching.
“Also, the reason I came here is for a kind of interim report.”
“… ?”
“Do you see this?”
Arceus stroked the driftwood next to him with a warm hand.
Then the driftwood lightly waved its branch as if to say hello.
“When you finished the test, ‘Ig’, which was just a sprout, has grown to this extent.”
“Hey?”
“Yggdrasil. “It’s this child’s name.”
“… !”
Yggdrasil.
Another name is world tree.
It was the name of a tree in the legend that was said to cover the world.
‘But it was clear that the last branch had been broken off… ?’
Arceus looked at Elric with a happy expression and asked.
“Do you remember the seed you swallowed before? “That is it.”
“ah.”
Elric nodded. What is the identity of the seed he swallowed in the dragon’s nest?
“Then, raising Shin-ah’s seal is also… ?”
“okay. Shina’s seal is connected to Ig here. Every emotion, thought, thought, realization… All of those things are good nutrients for this child. And its roots and branches gradually spread from your inside to your outside, making you stronger and stronger.”
“Then the magic stone was broken.”
“It’s not broken. It’s just a process of assimilating with Ig. “Magic power will also be a good nutrient.”
Elric nodded.
Heart, energy, body. It meant that the world tree connects the three elements of magic, namely imagery, magic power, and the body, into one.
‘It takes root in the image, grows stems and branches following the magic power, and blooms in the physical body…’ ‘Is that it?’
It was clear that if the mind, energy, and body could be connected as one, even more rapid growth could be achieved.
Enlightenment or thoughts will be immediately implemented into reality.
“What do you think? “This child you raised?”
Elric’s gaze turned to Ig.
Although Yig had no eyes, Elric had the feeling that he was looking at him with a strange gaze.
It’s a nomadic feeling.
Of course, as the name youth suggests, wouldn’t it be a warm and cute feeling?
I look at it with that thought in mind.
Startle.
‘uh… ?’
Elric trembled with anxiety that he didn’t know he was feeling.
“This guy too… .”
Then, while breaking out in a cold sweat, I slowly looked back at Arceus.
“Mervinger… “Is that so?”
I don’t know why.
For some reason, it seemed like he was raising one corner of his mouth, hiding some kind of plan.
Wizard who swallowed talent
