Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai Chapter 47

Chapter 47 (Facing the Beast)

A crowd of blue goblins surrounded me. 

The chains which appeared from the dimensional hole restricts blue goblins on the front row. 

Among them, some tried to tear the chains using their ax arm. 

"Iー, pierce through the prisoners of the thousands of chains, I, the black spear of greed that punishes the criminal, the ninth forbidden spell second stage, release !" 

I chant the incantation in a hurry while readying my sword toward the blue goblins, I break into running. 

In such posture, I swung my sword in a a half-moon shape. 

The blue goblins who were in wait-and-see state finally began to show their murderous intent toward me. 

And no matter how much my physical strength changes, there's a limit to it. 

Therefore I try to keep my breath short as much as possible. 

From its neck gust fort blue blood. 

Meanwhile, I didn't forget to put a marker on them too. 

"ーunder my command, restrict my enemy." 

I kill them, again and againー. 

With minimal movementー... 

Steadily. 

again, I step forward. 

I smashed the forehead of the blue goblin. 

"ーー" 

... Next ! 

Cold sweat breaks out. 

I also delicately deflected some of their attacks with the sword and change its direction. 

The blue goblins arm which have the shape of an ax. 

That's being the caseー 

When one goblin raises its ax arm, I leap closing. 

「ーThe black spear of greed that punishes the criminals.」 

I aim at the blue goblin arm, and swung down my sword. 

The ax arm which aimed at my head gets thrown into the air. 

And at that moment, I cut the blue goblin neck with my Akira sword. 

"The ninth forbidden spell, second stage, release !" 

My sweat flows like a waterfall. 

Again I aimed at the crowded goblins on the other side. 

One, two, three... five, six, seven, eight, ninth, tenー eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen... fifteen ! 

Without any time to take a breath... 

Kill, Kill, Cut... 

《KILL...》

《KILL...ーー》 NO ! 

Wait. 

I... "I" will return, to those girls... 

I fight to live ! 

I swung my swordー 16ー stabsー 17ー cut upー 18 ! 

"....................." 

Only, when the times comes, I will give it to you... 

Howeverー 

Until I can't do anything anymore. 

In that instant. 

*Bushaa*, Blue blood gushes out. 

However, I hold my ground. 

The people who lost their life inside the ruin will be teleported to the above ground and be revived to the current state. 

In fact, that is one of the special characteristics of the sacred ruin. 

In fact, according to what I heard, the n.o.ble family were determined to send their dear children out to this academy is simply because there's this characteristic. 

In the meanwhile, they also don't need meal nor excretion, however, for example, if they are being stabbed by a sword during sleep, they will without doubt die.  

And also, if one's died inside the sacred ruin, one's will take measure by withdrawing from the Lunezret academy. 

The part they will sleep "at least" two years. 

According to what I heard, there's those who had been sleeping for more than a decade(and of course, they also gets old). 

That is the policy of the academy side. 

Meaning, under the sacred treeー in other words, under the white fortress where the sacred tree knight doing sacred ruin exploration, the resurrection teleport did not exist. 

Thus, the reason why this kind of academy curriculum was authorized, is simply because this Resurrection Teleport was being discovered. 

So that's why, even though there's a danger inside the sacred ruins, the students won't have felt such as going to the jaw of death. 

Nonetheless, it does not mean that 『the fear of death』 disappear completely. 

It's called 『Memory of death』 which becomes trauma, it is said that many people who wake up decide to just stay indoors in their home. 

Those people are able to use magic power as standard. 

I cannot use magic power. 

In other words, in my case, either resurrection teleport nor other bulls.h.i.t exist... if I were to die, the chance of it being 『the end』 is high.

By the way, when she finished talking about it, she jokingly said that "I might be the only one who had investigate such record though..." then laughed awkwardly. 

"However... about what I had said, please keep it in mind. I also don't like fast farewell after all" 

50 ? 

Even when I continue to kill... there's always a new blue goblin come. 

However, I do not have any intention to give up. 

I cannot afford to die here. 

Four new blue goblins come. 

Kill... 

While killing them, I keep advanced through the pa.s.sage. 

Slashes, advance, kill, advanceー keep advance... 

At that time... 

I feel the sword stuck on the blue goblin meat. 

"Khu... !" 

Is it the limit already ? 

The sword sharpness, has begun dullー 

However, even like that, I swung the sword with all of my power. 

"Gu... ge, gyaaa !!" 

The blue goblin who falls down while gushes out blood screamed and dies. 

"Haa... Haa..." 

This is bad... 

Midway, the gauntlet cracked, and lost it use... 

I guess, this is the result huh. 

"Ge gaa !! Gugogaaa ! Gagigaaa !!" 

Did you notice that I've been weakened ? 

Here and there, I can see scattered crystal fragments. 

『Inside of their body, there's a different kind of crystal.』 

That remind me, I heard that before isn't it... 

......................... 

That, piece... 

"I, The chains ofー" 

While reciting the forbidden spell, I grip a crystal with my left hand. 

First, I stabbed my sword to the blue goblin on the front. 

And the last one, 

The blue goblin held down her eye and bend its body forward. 

I struck the blue goblin head with my sword and took it down. 

.................... 

As if I'm going to give up... 

Not yet... 

And then, 

"It would be good, if that place is an exit..." 

The place where I've arrived after much struggle... 

However, 

"... It won't be that easy huh ?" 

I arrived at a wide rectangle room. 

This place is the called 『big room』 inside the sacred ruin, I guess ? 

Till here, I feel a great fatigue has acc.u.mulated.  

When I looked back, a group of blue goblin is also drawing nearer from the rear. 

*Fuuh*, the face of those girls floated inside my mind. 

As expected, I can't die here... 

I will end up being surrounded if I were to rush here, howeverー... even if that is the case, there's no other choice. 

Blue goblins begin to move. 

Invocation. 

ーーForward... 

I start to dash... 

I attacked those who didn't get pierced by the spears, stab, stab, clashー kill... 

I pick some with my handー 

*Pashi* 

I, 

I pull out the spear stabbed on the blue goblin which appeared from the dimension hole with my hand. 

After pulling it off, I pierced three blue goblins from the frontー skewer them. 

"......................." 

I see... 

Though for me, I feel like being absorbed for a moment. 

For example, similar to how I image using it like a PC back then. 

In other words, to some extent, how much I can use it is depend on my own self, is that how it is ? 

The black spear which skewered the three blue goblins disappear, back to its origin. 

"... If that is the case." 

I began chanting the forbidden spell. 

"I will use anything useable." 

Countless spears attacked the blue goblins being restricted by black chains. 

Occasionally, I catch a spear flying. 

While being surrounded by blue goblins, and basked on the blue bloodー there's only one thing on my mind, that is heading toward that door!
