Sorey POV
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqhUtZm3IA
The standing ground was shaking with the air, and a strange sound rang from below. Afterward, the huge amethyst that exudes an ominous aura before our eyes emit a weird red light, like the color of blood, it has shown its presence in converse to its silence before but has released a powerful evil and malevolence just now, and we are all shocked by the unknown the power. We failed to take any effective actions to prevent the birth of this force that shouldn't have come to the world. The solid crystal seal can withstand that force of malevolence inside and at the same time block our external attacks without showing a crack. The giant crystal rose into the air and transformed into a giant spear, emitting red magical light, flying to the ground at high speed and standing on the ground. The magic power unfolded above makes the spear look like a cross glowing with blood.

There is nothing left on the roof. The phenomenon just now deeply makes me feel that the situation is not good and we cannot solve it. Presumably following the direction where the light flew made me worried about Edna and the others, so we agreed to go down and meet our companions first. Relying on Rose's guidance, we went to Edna and the others in the fastest time. There are no more monsters, no signal interference, and no life other than us.

There are no enemies, but something must have happened. This sense of violation is lingering in my heart. When we reached the bottom floor, we saw a big hole in the floor, and the wind gushed out of it, and only Edna and the two Normins beside her stood on the edge.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdVZFX2DDc
It's like dealing with the strongest force with the smallest force, it is unbelievable that she stood still with such force to face that dangerous force. I was very pleasantly surprised that she was unscathed. Yet her expression is absolutely not joyful, and it can be said to be as cold as ice. Even normin Eternal, who is with her, has a sad expression. I suddenly don't know how to talk.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnEEJW3dCW
"Edna?"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwib2uSoSY
"Sorey? You are here. Please calm down after listening..." She pretended to notice me just now but she was just thinking about how to start. She suddenly looked sad, which gave me a bad premonition.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe3ZPGWWf1
"Velvet and Eleanor were swallowed by the dragon." She declared calmly.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9tndhTCu0
At the moment when I was told by Edna, my heart was frozen like ice.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XaLJeePFr
What did she say?
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3InuhJirF
I forced myself to swallow saliva to calm myself down, the world was so quiet that I couldn’t even swallow the sound of fear, and my heartbeat shook the air at this moment.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUbb0wkyqa
I tried to understand her words in a good way but failed terribly.
I breathed the air loudly, and the breathing was so loud that I could hear it. I wanted to calm down, but the air was as cold as it was stabbing my lungs, like freezing my head. After a certain frozen second of my mind, I still want to deny the result, want to deny the terrible images that my head imagined.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4x5x0jw8T
I looked around, no one else was there, everywhere. I couldn't find Velvet and Eleanor who are mentioned in Edna’s words, and I didn't see Zaveid who should have worked with them.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXinFTGPb8J
Where did they all go?
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIahvX1YoY
From the big hole in the floor, I can vaguely see the remnants of the next floor, the broken wall and the floor, and the other is the endless sea of clouds that I will see from the sky. I just feel desolate and lonely when I look at it. Mere observations can no longer reason about what happened here. All the evidence and hints disappeared.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyhtuSjZ1m
If they were not eaten, they would have fallen. Otherwise, I should see their traces.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZFHLuOBkJ
The roar was echoing in the air, and the fear caused by its coercion made cold sweat wet my back. What I saw from the cave were red and shiny scales, but they were buried in black filth. The huge body was moving all the time, hovering around the building. Roughly speaking, the dragon may be more than a hundred meters in length. Affected by malevolence and becoming densely clouded in the sky, the red scales covered with tainted black flames show absolute power and an incalculable amount of malevolence.
It seems to be the incarnation of disaster, born as the “evil of this world”'. The red dragon wore all the darkness that had been collected to cultivate it so far and descended onto this sky. That malevolence was the most powerful enemy I have ever felt. It seems to be the Lord of Calamity in theory. This is the dragon mentioned by Edna.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeMuB5N5dl
"Swallowed by this dragon...?" I stared at Edna blankly and reconfirmed again.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs12512dhXi
As if my head was blank, I stopped thinking, and I didn't want to accept the answers suggested in my mind. I looked at Edna who was able to calmly announce the news with an unbelievable mood, hoping that she would tell me this was a bad joke. She looked at me firmly, which gave me a sense of steadiness, but she was not joking from beginning to end.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehe1IynJA1
"Then is she —" When I heard the news, I was thinking of a bad direction.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OULbxhRGr
Then is she dead?
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwJuQj6ZEn
After all, I never thought for a while about how to live by being eaten by a dragon.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfQpIc1qSd
I kept denying that she was dead.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY0rWBosva
And Edna seemed to know what I was thinking and said what I needed most.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybAPeg4A0m
"Not dead, I'm sure she must still be alive inside, so----" Edna said firmly.
"You must pull her back from the inside."

------------------------------
(a while before, Edna POV)
Seeing the situation in front of me, my heart seemed to stop (although I don't know if the Seraphim also has a heart like a human).
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpyhjAomSK
Everything happened too suddenly, the ground suddenly collapsed, the dragon suddenly appeared, and then Velvet was eaten.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvctLCkNeNO
Velvet said that Eisen's blessing (curse) is still working on her. I'm afraid this was not joking. If it weren't for this, I would not be able to explain the series of fatal incidents. Even so, she did not flinch, which should be the reason why her brother liked her. My brother and I have similar interests. It must not be accidental that I like her, but she is a very corresponding person to our personality.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35vvcdqxYi
She is a selfish but very caring person for her companions, but also a stubborn fool. No matter how many times we dissuaded her, she would fight in the end, for the cherished companion, and for atonement. I hate selfish people, but I don’t hate people like her, who claim to act just for herself but always have thought for others.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzgjhJWSGq

Even if her body is fragile and broken at any time, no one can completely prevent her from going to the battlefield. Although she did rely on her partner that she didn't fight directly on the battlefield, in the end, she was forced to go to fight in person. I feel that that is something she will do sooner or later, to let her fragile body have more stamina to deal with the last and worst enemy.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJH4nyAb6k
Eternal did not form a pact with her directly, so he has no high resistance to malevolence like ours. Velvet knew that the dragon’s body is full of malevolence so she throw Eternal away before she was swallowed, what an admirable decision? If this judgment can be made, she must be able to escape before being eaten, but she chose to be eaten, and I can also infer that she was eaten deliberately. Trying to calm down from seeing what happened, I can only think optimistically.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw10f0QS2xZ
Zaveid: "Hey, Edna, if you need my shoulders, I can lend you, I don’t mind a little bit of moisture on the skin ." He seemed to think that I would cry when I saw this, but I was even more reluctant to cry after being asked like this. He has a talent for ruining my mood. If I didn’t see Velvet’s expression, I am afraid I will cry embarrassingly and fall in his arms, even though I know there is no time to cry.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqfZJeMGjM
His conjecture was not entirely wrong. When I just saw Velvet being eaten, I unconsciously called her name, as if I expected the worst situation, I almost cried.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPKQXgaXIZ
Who can stay calm in this situation? At the moment when you see an important person step into the land of death in front of your eyes.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KrYTBYwkV
My brother turned into a dragon and came back by my side. I couldn't stop or change this, but Velvet was by my side until now, and I couldn't stop her from being eaten.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzJ3KcrnwT
I stretched out my hand and called to her, hoping that she could catch my hand and escape from the dragon's mouth, but she just turned her head and smiled, smoothly like a smile on a walk, and then was completely swallowed by the dragon's mouth. It was like saying that she was going to explore with a smile. This gave me a new direction of thinking. The confusion of thoughts led me from a once desperate mood to confusion. By sorting out my thoughts, I am now calmer.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCsmTydELx
"No, compared to this, these people should now be sent away, and they continued here too dangerous." I coldly respond to his concern. Rather than anyone's concern, I would like to be alone for a while. If the prisoners and homunculus we rescued stay in this place, they will hinder the fight. I don't have the confidence to protect them and fight the dragon at the same time. Zaveid seems to have been in contact with Magiland all the time. He will be familiar with the environment there. It would kill two birds with one stone to leave him temporarily with this job.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5Ltgrtvvk
"Oh? You don't seem to worry about Velvet and the others?" Zaveid looked very confused, even though In his opinion, being eaten by a dragon is nothing to joke about, and he also thinks that it would be bad luck if he went in. But even so, he did not appear to be very sad, perhaps because he has also experienced partings, maybe he doesn't think Velvet will die like this, or he doesn't plan to feel sad for another woman.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ipP8vfzax
"She is eaten, my worrying won’t change that. This woman is one who survived after traveling with my brother, she can face the extreme of misfortune. Just like all the misfortunes and life and deaths she has faced so far, she is not so easy to die. It’s not like that I am worried about this stubborn idiot."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKikjUBL4EY
I just made up a reason to let myself not pay attention to this matter anymore, but that reason just convinced me that Velvet was still alive. In fact, she did experience a lot of misfortune, and being eaten by the dragon is just a mere misfortune for her.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCbM84SR5q
I have decided not to worry about this idiot anymore. Until the last moment, she was still trying her best to survive and avoid directly participating in the battle. I also believe that she is cherishing her life, but at the critical moment she used such a nonsense plan. . Although she acted as if she wanted to live, the level of chaos in her actions left me doubting about this, and I was like an idiot who was worried about her.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzWb9VPK5B
There is not much leisure time on the battlefield to make people worry about others, but I am still troubled by her actions.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9W7Pja7Bt
"... Maybe she was eaten deliberately."
Is that what she trying to tell me? ……..How I felt more and more upset about her. To go straight into the dragon's stomach to fight. Such a messy method only she could think of.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY0eToEA1J
There is no guarantee to come out alive if she goes in there, even so, she still did.
(‘Since you said "You are not alone", then you don't leave me alone here, idiot.’)
I complained to Velvet in my mind.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIN7B2mxDF
In this short period of time, I knew you, you were being my protector in your own will, and you were trying to buy time and to save Sorey and me while committing crimes that hurt yourself when no one asked you to. You made me look forward to you, saved me arbitrarily, and walked into my heart without permission.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzwg40Cbkw
Then you want to leave without permission? How could I allow such a thing?
I won’t be satisfied until I have you here again.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsMl5NGxwU
The feeling of despair and sadness is gradually turning into unhappiness and anger.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS11EIujCDk
"Okay, I understand what you mean. That is, rather than being digested, she will just make a big fuss in it. Well, very much like she will. It may be the dragon who would be troubled by her now." Zaveid laughed and said, as expected, he didn't think Velvet would die like this.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ9UGjvKlf
"... But I don't want to see such a terrifying scene again for the third time."
The scene of her being eaten and the picture falling before my eyes are still inscribed in my mind for a long time, I just can’t take it to see important people dying in front of my eyes for the third time. Like that time she blocked me from a dragon's attack and then be dying before my eyes. I don’t want to see it again... maybe it’s because This way I don’t want to contact humans anymore, they always bother me.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqN1bxiP7g
Even though she is very strong, she is still a fragile human.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lUdLptqde
"Then you catch her and teach her a lesson~" Zaveid smiled and patted my head, then walked away, carrying the homunculus survived over from previous battles.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIXT2WKWfC
"That's for sure." I stared at him, thinking about how to teach Velvet a lesson when she came back.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjlsyAd7vj
"Oh, how fearsome...I feel bad for Velvet now. And you seem to be okay now." Zaveid looked at my expression and smiled. He seemed to be really worried about me, caring about me in his way.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAKjVPyc5h
"...... thank you," I whispered thanks and immediately turned to look at the frightened prisoners.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsmtq6Wj2m
"Well, there is nothing you guys can help. The dragon is very dangerous. I can't protect you all the time. Walk this way to the magic circle, and it will take you to the ground. Zaveid, you take the kid and lead them." I built a temporary road for the prisoners and urged them to leave after reaching the floor with the teleportation arte. Although they objected slightly, they all agreed in the end.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWYWErE5Ac
"Is it okay for you to stay here alone?" Zaveid asked when he looked back.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLPQhQ1YGM
"Did you forget that I have experience living with a dragon? Also, Eternal and Phoenix are still here."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfUOiKSOA9
"That's right, good luck. ."

"Not dead, I'm sure she must still be alive inside, so----" Edna said firmly,
"You must pull her back from the inside."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPMBpi1bwU
I also noticed her anger, to whom? Incompetence towards herself? Slowness towards me? Willfulness towards Velvet? Maybe all of the above.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooUL9FlIHM
She's right, Velvet is not so easy to die. Even when she is physically weak, she still fights in her own way and leads the team to victory. Even when she was mentally weak, she still struggled hard so far. I should have confidence in her.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7OoUdRdZU
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3FZJ2VwIg
Hearing the words that Edna firmly believes is like a “Reassurance pill” that makes me firmly believe what she Believes, I want to believe Edna but not the imagination in my mind.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GdCtgZkNo
People only believe what they want to believe, so maybe I have become a little selfish because I want to believe that Velvet is still alive.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iy0MOrPex
In order to protect everything around me, in order to take her back, I must become stronger.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlCbr2qCu7
I nodded to Edna and said that I must bring her back, realize the little wish we made together before going to the battle!
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl94jhX87B
“There seems to be something obstructing the squire contract to Velvet, but I don’t think it has disappeared. I believe that both of them are okay, Sorey-san.” Lailah checked the pact connection and smiled at me and comforted me.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWH4LBdOFy
Hearing Lailah’s evidence, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the time to relax was immediately interrupted by arrogant laughter.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFQOpXVe87
"Huh ha ha ha ha... this is my new body, it’s great, The whole body is full of power!!!"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyE22tuyTr
Tartarus said, his voice was dozens of times more majestic than usual. It wasn't until the dragon's head emerged that I was surprised that it was the sound from the dragon, which was wrapped in strong malevolence. Only the dragon's pupil is a sapphire that is as clear and beautiful as lake water, with strange patterns in the pupil, but this can't hide the brilliance that seems to eliminate the confusion of people. Before becoming a dragon, it may also be a seraph with a story.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKK3PBSb9c
"Tartarus, have you... become a dragon? " Becoming a dragon is tantamount to becoming an incarnation who runs unconsciously and brings disaster to the surroundings. Therefore, that is the end that is generally not expected to be reached as a seraph, and it is impossible to speak like this. Things like this, contrary to what I knew, made me very confused.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZHIffK4eT
"No, to be correct, I and the dragon have become one."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5HBD7OVuv
Tartarus explained proudly, seeming to think that even if we tell all the truth behind it, we can't do anything with him.
"It seems that you are very confused, then, before you were killed by me, I will tell you stupid existences with my great compassion. Let me tell you how stupid your resisting behavior is. Shepherd, you once asked me why I wanted to capture the seraphim, and this is how I answered you. ‘Because I hate them’, but this is only half of the answer. Now I will tell you the other half of the answer----they are the materials I need for research, and the power in front of your eyes is composed of them. "
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk2rOrKF3H
According to his statement, most of the seraphim we want to rescue have already become the material of his research --- have died. We can probably guess, but when he said it, it still made us feel a chill.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVBHQsfhPY
“Seraphim train themselves to get stronger, even if it takes ten or a hundred years, it may not be able to gain overwhelming power, and it can also gain strength through faith, but this is still too slow. Yet the seraphim becoming the dragon can gain overwhelming power in an instant. I am sure that the dragon is the ultimate form of the seraphim, and only becoming a dragon is the real power that can trigger all of its own abilities. This is the quickest and most effective way. It is a pity that my special physique prevents me from being affected by malevolence and becoming a dragon. Thus I had to turn other seraphim into dragons and replace me as the strongest firstly."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYR8NEgNQl
He pretended to be regretful but excitedly said the reason for the birth of this dragon. ---Because he wants to have absolute power, and the moment when the seraph painfully turns into a dragon is the moment he feels happy.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2nWazKffz
"Here is a question, how to make the dragon the strongest? I have realized one way from the daemons. The way to deal with and compress a large amount of garbage is called "Venomization", so since I awaken at this age, I have been catching the seraphim and hellions, trapping them together to carry out "Venomization", turning them into purer and more powerful malevolence. After repeating it countless times, I stirred up with the homunculus believers I made myself. Of course, maximizing the efficiency of collecting malevolence is also indispensable. I noticed that some ancient relics seem to cause misfortune, and when used together with the seraphim with the blessing of disasters, they become disaster triggers. Thanks to them, weak human beings were quickly defeated by malevolence and turned into dragon foods. "
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpI1PUSmooc
Tartarus summoned the ancient relics that brought misfortune in his mouth and played in the air. Several of the objects made Edna show a terrible expression as she would never forgive him by that.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMoRC6PteU
" . . . Brother's bracelet and coins. . . . How dare you to use it. . . . "From my point of view, it is an item of historical value, but Edna seems to be able to tell whose item it is at a glance. After all, it is her brother's item. Even if she has only seen it a few times, she will not forget it.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzDVO8BiUE
Edna stared at the dragon, which was much stronger than her, with anger that could gush out at any time. Her frank and unwavering pupils showed her dissatisfaction. She ignored the huge difference in strength. The bastard in front of her was after her brother died. She still slandered her brother’s blessings and abused his relics. She absolutely does not tolerate insults to her family.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuhtM7h524
"Ah, I’m so scared, but all the malevolence is absorbed by an ancient dragon with a wavelength similar to mine. The result is the dragon in front of you. I don't think you have the ability to fight, little girl. "
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3BX64jmSu
The seraphim with me, except Edna, looked at Tartarus who was talking about everything in a panic. He ignored the pain of all seraphim, gathered them, tortured them with pain and malevolence until they became dragons, and then let them continue to struggle. Turned into the most powerful malevolence and then eaten again, it is simply hell. He ignores the will and dignity of the seraphim, playing with them like toys, and finally becomes his power.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR0UZuwDY1
"She is not alone. " I said.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewg6bXh5Yd
Such behavior makes people feel angry, and I can also understand other people's thoughts that he is not worth redemption, because he blindly plays with the fate of others and has no respect for life.
But I also know that from childhood to adulthood, no one has really taught him these things, that he went very twisted and Claudin couldn’t save him. Therefore at the very end, I want to convey the value that is cherished in the world to him.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouAeXUQ1t4
"The ants can be trampled to death or burned to death even when they are assembled, and it only takes time. Speaking of which, I also want to thank you all. Velvet & Eleanor brought fear to several towns and caused a lot of malevolence generated from the people there. In order to protect the town, you defeated the 8 dragons and directly saved the effort to obtain their malevolence. The people in that place were also affected by you, encouraged and resisting me with all their strength, just in time they can deal with my products of repeated Venomization. I only need to wait and extract the malevolence. The dead soldiers can still be snacks of this dragon. "
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWekRp5AFKd
He looked at us a little bit jokingly and pointed out that all our actions assisted him in the end. Sure enough, the body of the unpurified dragon we defeated not only disappeared after we passed out but was captured by him. It was feeling heavy after things are told, I have a sense of disgust that I have been doing everything in vain. I feel a little angry at my inability to save them.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N0AGrmLgw
At this time, Mikleo patted my shoulder, I was taken aback, moved away from my emotions.
Mikleo said to me softly: "Sorey, even so, we have protected the town, and now we should protect the people who have not died."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05GfXqnbBk
After I heard it, I smiled and nodded. I feel that Tartarus continues to say ironic words that are of no use to us.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3o9OVfZ85
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡona601osag
"In other words, the dragon in front of you is the culmination of your hard work, and it has been so hard for you all the time. This is the end of the dream of the coexistence of the seraphim and the humans, and the humans and the seraphim are all integrated into one. Now I merged with this dragon to become the strongest existence. Thank you for your continued assistance, now die under your own efforts! "
After that, Tartarus, who is fused with the dragon, opened the mouth full of sharp teeth to us. A red light gathered in the mouth.
"I feel a strong power is concentrating, everyone, be careful!"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw947FqZq8
I quickly led my companions to run back, avoiding attacks and staying in such a narrow place to fight is really unfavorable.
He shows off his power like a warning, Dragon Flame sweeping by, the stone next to us was instantly turned to ashes by the high heat breath.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJx8j8wb4w
In the communication device, Rose said to me: "Go to the top floor, Sorey. I will do my best to assist you."
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNUz1VEPKR
“Thank you, I will count on you."
The whole building was shaking under the attack of the dragon, and it was not surprising that it was destroyed in the next second. There is no way back and no other choice. Only going forward is the right thing. We are even confused about how to pull Velvet out. There is no time. Reality tells me that I can only fight against this dragon.
If the responsibility of forming pact with Lailah again to become the Shepherd is to solve the contemporary Lord of Calamity, then my responsibility now is to defeat Tartarus and this evil dragon that is equivalent to disaster. But at the same time, I want to protect Velvet, the person who bears her own grief and sins and carries the accusations that are added, and who is always stubborn and unstoppable. That person once said that she didn't want us to meet up with the storm, she originally planned to avoid this crisis, because she didn't want us to die in it, but in the end, no one could escape from this storm.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTiTF6uRss
She didn't want to live at that time but wanted us to live, so she moved forward to the storm, and now she is in the middle of the storm of calamity.
I want to find her at the center of the wind eye... After we have wished together….to take a good look at the new world... We must go back together...
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4lEYjWztT
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH9aBcBt5j
I let all the seraphim into my body, I prayed for Velvet’s safety all the way, ignoring all the attacks from behind, and rushed to the top floor. Just as I reached the top floor, a light and shadow hit me. I had no time to block it, and closed my eyes reflexively, but did not feel any pain. So I slowly opened my eyes and saw the sight in front of me.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s9NbiLqoa
"Oh, Shepherd, I have been waiting for you for a long time," the familiar female seraph said in a relaxed tone, and the strong light and shadow cast around her and on the surface of the building, the color became strange.
Behind me, there is a plasma ball collision sound. When I turned my head and looked around, I realized that there was a huge protective shield behind me that blocked the attack from the evil dragon. A lot of explosions and shocks occurred when the two energies collided, and the scene was covered by light again.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNnRfytZ23
When it returned to normal, it was already halfway through the destruction of the foothold. This is his current destructive power. It is huge. The shadow is covering the place where I am, and above it is a giant dragon with open wings and staying in the sky.
Unlike when I saw it in the floor hole, now I can see its body completely, which is much larger than mine. A creature that is hundreds of times larger, its head alone is enough to swallow dozens of people in one bite. The body is hundreds of meters long, which can easily cover the sky above our head.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgF69lTtHc
On its back, it has pure white hair like a snow fox. Coupled with the dragon eyes that are as clear as the lake, it can't help but feel a little sacred, but there is all malevolence covered.

It was angry, and at the same time roared like a scream, like a cry of gathering all the resentful souls. At the same time, the two huge dragon wings flapped to evoke a huge wind blowing on us, and the huge pressure immediately made us unable to move. And the light of magic power is gathering on the dragon's body at a speed visible to the naked eye, and there is a strong gathering in the throat. Guanghui.

".... it is more powerful energy than just now…!!" Seeing the attack come at any time, I intuitively feel that there is no place to hide here. Tartarus intends to destroy the entire building together with us. From here- ---Falling at a height of 30,000 meters above the ground will only end with death.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJG0Inm4ct
"I can’t do anything to this, haha." Ophelia smiled as if given up.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8V3BDNcvA
"It's not the time to laugh, right? Mikleo, do you think we can resist this kind of attack with that trick?"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJib7BqZFJH
An attack that can't be avoided can only be blocked frontally. There is only one trick in my mind that can do this kind of thing.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflRuBcMe94
". I think about it, under this kind of intensity difference, it may be like glass, better than no defense.
"...In any case, please, Luzrov Rulay. "
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLhXyxjyHE
The energy from the dragon's mouth turned into flames and breathing out, I can feel the heat from a distance. That is exactly the flame that will burn us to ash.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1c2dMzJLf
"Maelstrom!"
I am using the power of the water armatus to cast a huge water vortex around us, the dragon’s breath full of power directly crashes on the vortex. The flame hits the water curtain that is incompatible with its attributes. However, its counter Reciprocity is not performed as ‘fire is weak to water’, the flame shows no weakness against the water curtain of the vortex. On the contrary, our water curtain is constantly evaporated by huge heat, and we are under the high-temperature mist formed by the evaporation of water. It’s almost steamed, but I don’t have the energy to cast another spell at the same time.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI12WeaHX5r
"We are certainly the S-team steamed by the steam," Lailah stated, making a no joke thing reported in her way.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJBM8qEsVj
"Lailah, that doesn't help cool down the environment," Edna stated bored and cast the water-elemental arte she had in hand.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmz5HajIbj
"Blizzard Field!"
Suddenly the Bizzard raged on the field, forming a transparent wall to shield the field from the fire breath of the dragon. The blizzard cooled down the field a bit, at least we are not burnt.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuu3JgFoNW
I turned my head towards Alpha, confused, I want to ask for an explanation but surely this isn't the right time.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQmqIexQ2F
“I am just using the technique from my origin--- Altorius, in the past, exorcists are able to perform simple seraphic artes as well." He understood my confusion and answer.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4rEB9aCCJ
"I am glad that you regain your self-S-Team and coped with your identity, Alpha," Lailah said, the pun hid so well and no one even notice that
.
"Yeah, I understand what I should do now," Alpha answered.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvssPOeOuau
"By the way, the self-S-Team was actually formed from the word self and S-team."
"I prefer not understanding this though!" Alpha facepalmed.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcgRIXtFab
"Strengthen. Arte strength freeze." Normin Eternal also cast his blessing over our arte, seemingly strengthening our seraphic artes.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeI8SLjKE2
“That should be enough for a while, prepare for the counterattack.” The normin stated.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEsHDVqmNm
I nodded and converged my mana for the next attack, I didn't see the target in the stream and smoke so I guess I will just aim where the flame comes.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O9yEofKT3
“My bow is the heavens!” I converged the mana as fast as I could. All of a sudden, the airflow in the field is changed by my act, calling a whirlwind surrounding us. The mana is making the wind visible and I see how much mana is concentrated in the arrow clearly.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf2a57i5fR
As the large flow of mana converging at the point of the arrow is making the arrow of mana irregular, I eventually stabilize the mana to make it sharp enough to lead its way throughout the maelstrom and the flame….or let the vortex becomes one with the arrow.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ23bK16qnP
“Guys, please lend me your power, all mana onto the arrow!"
I didn’t turn back but felt the mana arrow become stronger several times.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGdUKxEgM7
"Alright, Alright, I will help, President," It appears that Ophelia also helps out as Rose bothering her.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03HgyeszPS
Then several seraph glyphs array like a rail and my bow artifact turned into a giant crossbow with the arrow turned into triple lance-like arrows.
I released the arrows towards the end of the flame light, as the arrows passed through each seraphic glyph, they accelerated and boosted up.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzRi24GUui
“The vortex swallows you! Aqua Limit-Maelstrom booster edition!"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7SoW3CkHY
The triple lances pulled the vortex together towards the dragon, when the Maelstrom guided and decomposed the flame around with the twisting and open up a clear rail for the lances, the lances eventually shot right at the dragon’s jaw.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDLnA6sK3v
After being hit, the dragon twisted its neck and body as if it felt severe pain, and flames were spurted randomly everywhere.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VRMLmaTUM
The rain of fireballs fell everywhere, all around us turned into a sea of flames, and the high temperature turned all around us into an environment of purgatory, and even a foothold could not be guaranteed to be safe. Edna’s ‘Barrier’ and Alpha’s arte worked together to block away the flames that were supposed to fall on our heads.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DF8ChIbrE
After the pain passed, replaced by full of anger, the dragon roared in anger and flapped its wings vigorously. The surrounding clouds were blown away in an instant.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFODAGlMMdG
"annoying Ant!"
The sharp wind blade flew in with its curse, and directly cut away the flames around us, instantly scratching me with blood marks on us.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R4pRHd9gN
"This time you must be burnt into charcoal! Phoenix's feathers. "
Then the flames sprayed out from his nostrils, gradually covering the whole body of the dragon, forming a coat of flames. It stayed in the air like a drill bit rotating on its own, and the flames along with it formed. A scorching outer layer swooped down from high above, like a huge fireball.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3C0o3OLKH
The offensive posture made it feel like nothing could stop him, and I lonely sent another arrow.
" Azure Assault! "
The twelve arrows separated first, and finally marched towards the dragon in the same place, but evaporated in an instant, and the dive offensive did not weaken a little.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4HSQYyfGz
"Hephsin Yulind! Rocks of protection! Monolithic Current"
A series of huge stone steles from the ground rose up and became a wall to resist the attack, trying to stop the dragon.
But when the dragon swooped into the huge stone stele with its huge and sharp sword horns, one, two, three... The stone tablets fell one after another, but Alpha, who armatized with Edna, did not intend to give up. He continued to erect the stone tablets from the ground, not only in front of the dragon but also under the dragon. His efforts succeeded in making the dragon swoop away, leaving the original track.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDxrQfKTeX
Alpha's eyes are very determined to defeat the enemy in front of him, ignore the difference in power, ignore the rational considerations, and just want to achieve the purpose of being here. That resolutely only looks at the target. The scorching eyes look like that stubborn person. The Velvet I saw in the battle also has the same sharpness in eyes like a sword and the burning eyes like a fire. It makes me feel relieved to see that Alpha is no longer as decadent as the original one. I guess we changed this kid to grow up in a good direction.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKUSGDnzuW
I can't lose to Alpha, because I also promised Edna to go into the dragon and pull Velvet back.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl48qFkOwo
"Open the way forth! Binding Vortex!"
I evoke every stone stele with a Blue crest surrounding, a huge column of water surrounding the stele and rose. The dragon dived and finally ran off the track in other directions. The water column and the fire on the dragon's body generated steam, hiding our position.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyNBG0olS4
"It's really hard work, amazing. Kid, you deserve to be the Shepherd Velvet likes. I'll help you seriously, after all, it's a life and death battle." Ophelia, who was standing idle, came out and said. Her words kinda made me embarrassed but great to hear that she is helping.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng5rJNlXl7
"Rose, are you ready for you too?" Ophelia seems to be communicating with Rose.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwKpUyBrq0
"...Okay, be proud of the time you have bought. Sprit releases, teleportation unfolding."
Just like the scene when Maotelus fired the magical cannon, everything around was surrounded by light. After the steam and white light dissipated, it came to a sense that we were still on the battlefield just now, but the air felt a little change, a sense of ambition and excitement.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gCAhKjmjm
The inspiring golden arrow flew in the sky, They shot at the dragon in piles, it seems that there are lights in the distance from the source, it seems to be the familiar city we are guarding.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbvWigt3BJ
"Let's shoot the arrows, and use our treasure to tell this arrogant guy that we are not good to bully. Stand up and show our perseverance!" Alisha ordered from afar, it was a voice coming through communication. That voice is enough to evoke brave and ambition inside the heart of soldiers on the field.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlse1Ss1vI
We are now maybe still some distance from the ground, but it is within the scope of the attack of Magiland.
Now the greatness of the dragon makes it like a moving target, most of the arrows can hit it, but those arrows will not cause much harm to it.
The rain of light arrows kept shooting on the dragon, regardless of whether it caused effective damage.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4uZ9JtvTF
"Return VELVET!" Maotelus roared. He seemed to know that Velvet was swallowed by the dragon, and he was using his Empyrean’s power to directly attack the dragon. He said that he could not fight directly because of the oath, but it seems that he has chosen to give up keeping the oath.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK84lowpaTb
At the same time, multiple magic circles appeared in the sky and the sea, and the lights of mana were gathering in the array. Ready to go, the dragon seemed to be stuck in the air by something. The mana power was then launched together, and the dragon was submerged in the light.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3SKEp5Axg
"Maotelus's attack is really heavy, and he really didn't care about the rebound after breaking the oath. "The Ophelia next to me said so but was not surprised.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvl2V3q3yN
"Oh, what is it doing suddenly? Funny Acting?" Rose seemed to be surprised in the communication channel after seeing the dragon's movements on her side.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOPosJiaqy
The movement of the dragon suddenly became strange. There was no enemy but he twisted his body and flew around in the sky, flying irregularly in the air. Sometimes he suddenly twisted towards us in strange places and rushed towards us, sometimes he wanted to attack us. Strangely twisted in other directions, and then his tail waved here again. All his actions were so irregular that he could not predict his actions, and he could only rely on instant reaction to avoid those random attacks.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPKDBkU1dx
This kind of action was like it had eaten something wrong and now it feels a stomachache that keeps it twisting.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ipNfoDTT5
Wait, "eating something wrong"...it can not be….?
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS15kNTzgq
"Hehe, it seems that Velvet finally woke up inside, then Everyone, my mission has been completed, and I am going back again, BYE~" Ophelia left and disappeared to nowhere. She seemed to just come and teleport the whole place to the vicinity of Magiland. She has never been fighting side by side with us.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR1NRv7IoB
After one person left, another person arrived.
"Did Velvet start to make a big fuss there?" A familiar voice came from behind, and Zaveid walked forward casually.
"ZAVEID? Where did you go?" Lailah asked in a puzzled way.
"Go and settle the last refugees. I came back as soon as possible, so forgive me for coming back too late." He scratched his head and explained his faults.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDXPmiUou2
Regarding where he went, regarding the refugees, these are all my lack of knowledge in their plan but we don’t have time to ask. All I know is that he tried his best to come back here.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg66yX9JL6
“Although I would like some whining, we don’t have time,” Edna answered with some whining behind as if she knew what did he do yet not able to explain it now.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4351IZrRiq
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIlDyGC6E7
“Welcome back, Zaveid.”
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsqU9g1AkR
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVITuBrxDD
“We don’t know how this status last…..If you have something wanna try, it is now, no next chance.” Zaveid watched the weird dragon and suggested.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvrqgKbuYw
“Alright, then I think it is the time we use the Full Armatization.”
It was the last action to take as it caused a great loss of body strength but at the same time provided a very strong force to attack. It was the strongest trump card so I decide to use it when the enemy now can’t move freely with its own will.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFN0nlvfKCI
“Are you counting all on this? I won’t object that.” Zaveid said.
“Let’s go, take me into that dragon to drag that idiot out.” Edna parted from the armatization with Alpha and walked towards me, smiled confidently, expressed her whole trust.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS6Vt09I7D
“If no one disagrees, let’s do it, it is the best moment.” Lailah agreed.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VyU1cqBKs
“Do it as you wish, but don’t overwork yourself,” Mikleo added.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6o3EPbPxY
“Yeah, since I would bring back Velvet, I won’t fall down until then.”
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡude0LC8ZKD
4 seraphim then turned into light particles and turn into one with my body, the clothes on me turned into the clothing of armatization with the hero style cape, the huge executioner's sword appeared in my hand with colorful rays.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4kFi99UoA
I condense my mana on the great sword, I will cut away the malevolence, and wave my faith.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyYQy5iE3c
I want to settle your sins and liberate the grievances imprisoned here.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSjDAUUF3l
I injected my belief in saving the common people into this blow,
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoXsWIkahr
I injected the memory of my redemption into this blow,
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu3ejMO3t8
I put all the bonds in this blow,
I injected my dreams into this blow,
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNPzpotlzc
I entrust everything that I have in my life to this blow.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoGaIQtxQ7
The agitation of the sword is the hope for the future and the will to save, and the pure faith pledges to live the future we hope for together.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2XCRGBrY0
The sword body emits a dazzling and scorching light like the sun, as if it can purify all malevolence.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4H14lsYNN
With all my strength and consciousness, I swing a sword with all my strength at the dragon twisting in the air.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvlb0ViD4P
The giant sword slashed down on the dragon's chest with the burning mana. The hard dragon scales finally failed to prevent the attack. The slash successfully opened a huge wound on the dragon's body, causing the dragon to emit a huge and miserable scream.
I didn't let go of the next moment, the moment the sword left the dragon's body, I immediately twisted the posture and turned into a sword stab, allowing the giant sword to be inserted into the dragon's body.
"Burn!"
Under my command, the purifying flame erupted with the mana explosion, and the purifying flame covered the whole body of the dragon in the next second, while the dragon was still screaming.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlTlTOQs4Q
"storm!"
I attacked one after another so that the opponent did not have a chance to breathe.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkcXOVIxDO
"Gravitational star!"
All the nearby stones were drawn by the mana of my earth and hit the dragon with heavy blows.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaYCZoE6yy
Then I returned to the floating island in the air and stopped attacking because I felt that this was the limit, the power of my body was losing every minute and every second, and then the state of full armatization was dismissed.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVPqdAX1fh
The four seraphim flew out of my body, and I half-kneeled on the ground and looked at the silent dragon. It seemed that there would be no new movements.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoso0uZr8f
"This is the limit, it can't be used anymore." Mikleo warned me, not allowing me to continue to force myself.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2vogMcQsF
"I understand that this battle is for survival," I answered.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlim6MumBCw
"You said the same thing as Velvet, you better do it." Edna stared at me and said.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J5o2MAaVz
"Of course, if I die, I won't be able to bring her back, now go in with me to find her, Edna." After I realized what Edna wanted to do, I stood up again and reached out to Edna.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur8y24GPV2
"Edna, please take care of Sorey for me." Mikleo knows that Edna will not back down in this, she will follow me to enter the dragon, and he decided to ask her solemnly.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtexLS3xYkI
"That is for sure." Edna nodded to Mikleo.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZrSwBHShf
"Then we and Alpha will stay outside and fight the dragon, please come back soon, Sorey-san." Lailah said.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIUuHq5MND
I made an affirmative sound and jumped into the dragon's body from the dragon's wound while armatized with Edna.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu1KWlCsgN

A.N.
It took me so long to write it, I am sorry. I wrote a lot of battle but still spending so much time thinking of each battle, not repeating and being exciting. I wrote the battle with the dragon before but I study the dragon again in this chapter to express its absolute strength. I shall say I really not good at writing battles and I definitely don’t wanna write so many battles if this story has a second season.
However, I’m pretty sure what is left here…..80% of battles…...hahaha….what the hell…...
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMrmAFEf6X
I was writing Velvet’s situation in the latter part, but that turns out to be so long and I am pretty sure people don’t like to see such a long chapter and battle even if the battle is starting to be similar to One Piece be fighting like continuous chapters.
In the end, I only post Sorey’s and Edna’s part in this chapter.
