Chapter 70. It’s different from back then. (One)
One.
After Sirpi and the others disappeared.
As the light that illuminated the battlefield gradually disappeared, the battlefield was once again covered in darkness.
But even for a moment.
Saaaaaa—!
Along with the sound of the wind blowing, a faint ray of light emerged. It soon gave off a soft light, illuminating the darkness of the abyss.
[Grrr!]
This is the light emitted by the white tiger.
The one who remained next to Ulan bared his teeth at the giants surrounding him on all sides.
Meanwhile, the giants who were rushing towards Sirpi and the warrior group sniffed their noses as if they were looking for their suddenly disappeared target.
Some time after that.
As if they had found the direction where the other party had disappeared, they soon turned and moved towards the top of the crack.
Finally, the moment I took a step.
──────!
Suddenly, a blinding flash of light fell silently and split the darkness of the abyss in half.
Then, an eerie sound of skin being torn and bones being broken was heard, and the heads of the giants who were trying to chase Sirpi and the others flew into the sky.
“No one can go beyond this.”
A voice came calmly.
It is none other than Ulan’s voice. Holding the two axes as if crossing them, he stood tall where his party was and watched his battlefield.
And that moment.
A fierce force swirled around Ulan like a gust of wind, strong enough to overwhelm the battlefield.
“Never as long as I have a breather!”
Fighting spirit, fighting spirit, killing intent, etc.
The giants flinched and were unable to move at the determined force of the man who was called a giant slayer in his last life.
Around this time a brief standoff ensued.
Suddenly, a loud laugh rang out from beyond the giants’ army.
【Hahaha! It’s the same this time too.】
The sound of giant king Largtan’s laughter.
He just did nothing and watched the situation while Ulan bought time to evacuate the warrior group.
It’s as if it doesn’t matter whether Sirpi and the warriors escape or not.
【You did that last time too. I remained alone in the enemy camp and fought, risking my baggage and my life. Before that, and even before that.】
Largtan appears from beyond the darkness.
A satisfied smile appeared on his lips. As if he was satisfied with Ulan’s decision to remain alone.
【But I know about it. The reason you remain here is not just to save your comrades.】
An incomprehensible word followed immediately.
Ulan tilted his head.
“What do you mean?”
Because I couldn’t understand what Largtan meant.
And soon the answer came back.
【Don’t lie. We are the same type, right?】
He shrugged his shoulders.
Immediately afterwards, he spoke with his mouth twitching.
【A being born with the destiny of a warrior whose only joy in life is combat with the strong, and who can prove their existence only through fighting! That’s us!】
A guy pounding his chest and shouting.
Ulan burst out laughing at the sight of Largtan speaking with confidence.
“That’s not entirely wrong.”
Just as Largtan said.
The reason Ulan remained here was to prevent the giant army from chasing his injured comrades, but there were other reasons as well.
“Just because we fight dozens of times and always end up with the same result, I don’t think there’s any way this time will be the same.”
Ulan’s lips twisted and rose.
A ferocious smile bloomed above him. It was a smile like that of a wild beast with its prey in front of it.
“I am different from the time you remember.”
Of course, this also applies to Largtan.
He has received unknown power from the source of the abyss and has become much stronger than in his last life.
Nevertheless, Ulan was confident of victory.
I don’t know why.
I just felt that way. I am confident that I will never lose this time.
So─.
“I will take the victory.”
This is the time to decide whether to win or lose.
Ulan took a step forward.
To put an end to the fight that has been repeated countless times, to destroy the confirmed fate that Noah spoke of.
And that moment.
Ulan territory swallowed the battlefield.
The area that had been expanding comfortably for a moment was soon blocked by a huge wall.
【Hahaha! okay! It has to come out like that!】
The realm of Giant King Largtan.

He spread his territory several times wider than Ulan and kicked the ground.
【Try to break the load! Ulaanbaatar!】
Finally, the moment when the two areas overlapped.
Two battle-mad monsters clashed.
To sit in the one and only winner’s seat.
2.
Meanwhile, at that time.
When Ulan and Largtan clashed.
A strange event suddenly occurred some distance away from the abyssal battlefield. Seven men and women suddenly emerged from the shadows.
“Ugh!”
“Wow! “I feel like I’m going to throw up.”
It’s Sirpi and the warrior group.
They came out of the shadows and rolled around on the floor, each holding their stomach and head. It was because I had a strong headache and felt sick to my stomach.
But even for a moment.
“… … Holy Ghost.”
Ian, who recovered his condition by reciting a prayer, quickly turned around. It was to check the condition of Laurea and the other warriors.
“How are the other guys?”
“Fortunately, it looks like you’re safe.”
Ian answered with a sigh of relief.
Although his breathing became somewhat heavier, there were no other particularly serious changes. Afterwards, the condition of Delia and Perticia was also checked.
“Si, Sirpi?!”
Suddenly an urgent scream was heard.
Ibella’s voice. She helped Sirpi, who had fallen with a confused look on his face.
Fresh blood flowing continuously from the nose, ears, eyes and mouth. Ibella shouted in embarrassment at the serious condition that could be seen at a glance.
“W-what’s wrong with you all of a sudden?! It was clear earlier… … !”
I said it was okay. That’s what I meant to say.
However, Sirpi’s answer was better than that.
“sorry. “It was a lie.”
“What, what?”
I asked back as if it were absurd, but there was no answer. Sirpi kept coughing, and blood and pieces of flesh came out of his mouth.
Ibella, who was watching this blankly, immediately shouted as if she couldn’t understand.
“why… … !”
“… … “Because you said I was your friend.”
With blood filling her mouth, Sirpi barely managed to answer. Then, smiling as best as he could, he said:
“So I wanted to help. Doing the best I can. That’s the whole reason.”
After finishing what I wanted to say.
Sirpi felt herself losing consciousness. His life force may be rapidly depleting due to his excessive use of the technique.
Just when I thought that if I closed my eyes like this, I would probably never be able to open them, I suddenly felt a warmth wrapping around my body.
‘This… … ?’
An unfamiliar sensation that I felt for the first time in my life.
At that time, I saw Ian’s face through my blurry vision. From the looks of it, he was probably using a divine healing spell on himself.
‘This is something I will live to see for a long time.’
I never thought the day would come when the heir of the Desert Church would receive a healing spell from a Holy Knight of the Holy Kingdom.
Still, the effect was clear.
I felt my consciousness, which had been fading away, gradually coming back to clarity. As a result, my confused mind soon returned to its original state.
‘what?’
Then.
Suddenly a question arose.
‘Why am I here?’
Originally, she had planned to evacuate everyone and remain on the battlefield alone. But somehow she opened her eyes and she was with Bella.
Could it be that the trick failed?
No, that can’t be true. If that were the case, his physical condition wouldn’t have been so ruined.
‘Then why…? … .’
At that moment, questions continued to arise.
A voice suddenly passed through my mind.
“Go first.”
With countless armies of giants in front of us.
The voice of a man who spoke in a calm whisper while showing off his broad, strong back.
He was holding two axes and waving his reddish-brown hair, and he clearly whispered this.
“Someone has to stay anyway.”
Ulan. It was Ulan’s voice.
The moment Sirpi remembered this, his eyes widened. It was only then that I realized the situation.
Afterwards, she raised her head, trying hard to suppress the pain that felt like her body was about to break.
“Hey, Ibella.”
“Sirpi! “Are you out of your mind?”
“Yes. I’m okay.”
Sirpi nodded slightly towards Ibella, who was crying and asking questions. Then she said what she had to say immediately.
“Well, more than that, Ulan… … ?”
“… … !”
The moment Sirpi’s words rang out.
Everyone’s expressions hardened.
Because it was only then that I remembered it. A fact he had forgotten for a while while treating Sirpi. That Ulan was left alone on the battlefield.
“shit! “That idiot!”
The first to react was Sven.
He crumpled his face and pounded the ground violently with his fist.
“What on earth are you going to do by repeating the battle you failed in in your last life!?”
It was accompanied by a cry full of strong anger.
Ian just bit his lip in silence, and Ybella looked down the crack blankly. Then he suddenly grabbed the sword and kicked away.
“… … “I have to go.”
“what?”
“I have to go back.”
“Ibella! Calm down!”
Ian grabbed her arm as she tried to jump out of the chair and run away.
In response, Ibella violently waved her arms to shake off Ian’s hand.
“Let go of this!”
“It’s not possible!”
“We can’t leave Ulan alone. If things continue like this, it’s the same as the past life I heard about from Noah!”
“I know that, but it still doesn’t work!”
Ian shakes his head repeatedly.
Sven also blocked her path.
“Ian is right. Even if we join, in our current state, we’ll just be a bunch of baggage.”
“but… … !”
“More than anything, the reason we were able to escape safely was because that guy risked his life to use a technique. Are you planning on blowing it up?”
Sven pointed to Sirpi.
At this, Ibella bit her lips tightly.
It was because I realized that there was nothing wrong with what Ian and Sven said. But regardless, she continued to feel an ominous mood.
There is only one reason.
This is because of what I heard from Noah in the past.
“To save the other heroes, he stays alone and dies while fighting Largtan. “This is Ulan’s sealed fate.”
A fate that has been repeated dozens or hundreds of times.
A death that could never be avoided.
So it was natural to feel ominous. So, the moment she tried to walk again, she heard a voice holding her feet.
“Of course we will save Ulan as well.”
Ian speaks again.
It was with seriously shining eyes.
“But to do that, we must first lift the curse placed on the saint. “Only then will your wounds be healed.”
Furthermore, if the curse on Delia and Perticia can be lifted, it will finally be able to help Ulan.
“Perhaps Ulan also told us to prioritize this. “At this point, this is the only way for everyone to survive.”
“that’s right. So for now, let’s trust the Ulan and do what we can.”
Sven also supported Ian’s opinion.
As Ibella listened to the two’s soft answers, she suddenly felt the last whisper she heard from Ulan come to mind.
“do not worry. “I win this time.”
Ulan said that with a smile.
It was as if he was asking us to trust him, not someone who was ready to make sacrifices.
Remembering this, Ibella vigorously tapped her cheek. After a while, she managed to regain her composure and immediately nodded her head.
“… … Yes, I’m sorry for being so forceful.”
“it’s okay. Because I understand.”
Ian grinned as if relieved.
“Then what should I do first?”
“As I said before, we must first lift the curse placed on the saint. “Only then will your wounds be healed.”
Something that needs to be done right away.
After briefly explaining this, Ian looked at both Sven and Sirpi and continued speaking.
“To do that, first… … .”
You must join someone who can solve the crisis your party is currently facing. Just as I was about to say that, I suddenly felt a presence.
[Smurf?]
A being with a long, thin tongue.
Before I knew it, it was a snake with a huge body that had come very close. The group, who belatedly noticed the presence, widened their eyes.
“You, you…” … !”
“Ludric’s family?”
A poisonous snake, one of the desert cult’s sacred beasts.
When everyone was making incomprehensible expressions at his sudden appearance, a familiar voice was heard from beyond where the poisonous snake had appeared.
“Ha, I finally found it.”
“… … !?”
The voice everyone has been waiting for.
Soon, where the group’s gaze turned, there was a black-haired girl wiping sweat from her forehead. She made eye contact with her companions and then smiled brightly.
“You all waited a long time, right?”
A being that can overcome this crisis.
It was the appearance of Noah Darshen.
