98 – Helen Walker’s Miscalculation, Death of the Last Sage

Helen Walker is a young and competent wizard, and has a reputation for being the youngest sage.

It is said that he is not only excellent at handling magic, but also has great political insight and ability to solve difficult problems.

I also met him several times at the academy, but I thought he was a very talented person.

There is always a short woman named Arwen Undress by his side, but with excellent fighting skills.

Arwen served as the commander-in-chief of soldiers all over the world, and is a woman who has been called the strongest of mankind by showing overwhelming skills in various wars.

If it’s simple fighting power, it’s probably one level higher than Minerva.

In my heart, I was worried about sending Irene alone to the den where such amazing people were waiting, but I tried to suppress my anxiety.

As Irene said, in order for me to overcome negative emotions such as resentment and hatred, I needed to end my revenge against the warrior party.

It seemed that if I did not sort out my relationship with them, my soul would be swept away by the turbid current and lose its pure color.

I am also a human being.

I thought that in order to truly purify humanity, I myself had to part with hatred.

and another one.

He believed that if it was Irene, he would be able to overcome it even if he fought against Helen and Arwen.

Even if those two are currently the strongest pair that mankind is proud of, Irene surpasses that strongest.

I believed in Irene’s inner skills.

She is a masterpiece of mankind.

He is a real genius who seems to have been born by God’s mistake.

No one, including me, can match her dazzling talent.

So, entrusting Irene with the last remnants of the party was the correct answer.

At first, he himself said so.

‘No, that’s half a lie.’

Yes, honestly, the real reason I sent Irene down to the basement alone and avoided it was because I wanted to run away from unspeakable anxiety.

I presume that Irene felt a similar nervousness and deliberately sent me away.

A hunch that something creepy is hidden in that cellar that will surely send chills down our spines.

That premonition was embodied in its worst form and appeared before my eyes.

—When I arrived in Auren City, I was stunned to see Irene coughing up blood from a hole in her stomach.

“Cool!!!”

Irene, who was confronting a man with a familiar knife, recognized me as I hurriedly flew over and gave a lonely smile.

“Wow, you’re here… John. I was waiting… Cool! I was worried that I would die without seeing him again… Cool!!”

“Irene… How the hell did this happen?”

It wasn’t just one or two odd things.

First of all, Helen and Arwen, who are watching me from a distance.

The two of them were not hurt at all.

There is not even a trace of a battle.

Even though it was a natural flow to get out of the basement and fight on the ground, it was strange that Helen and Arwen didn’t participate in the battle at all.

It means that the swordsman alone made Irene into a super corpse.

“Lord, Master… Isn’t that a holy sword? I couldn’t find it no matter how much I searched… ”

“yes. It looks like a holy sword to my eyes.”

In addition, Irene’s blood-stained weapon was the holy sword, the sole property of warriors.

Another suspicious thing, no, the most disturbing thing was the face of the man fighting Irene.

“master… That’s kind of weird. That person looks just like the owner.”

Just as Misha said, the face of the man with the holy sword resembled mine like a twin brother.

There is no way my hidden older brother would have appeared at this moment.

I know who that person is.

Familiar faces I’ve seen countless times while traveling in the past… That is the first hero, John.

“Cool! Cool! John… your body… Carlos retrieved it… As a puppet… I must have remodeled… Cool! this… The identity of the final weapon hidden by mankind… Cool!”

“Okay, Irene. Say nothing more.”

I understood everything.

He seemed to know why Carlos so confidently trusted the performance of the final weapon, and how the genius Irene was left stranded.

Even if the soul had left the shell, there was no way Irene could damage the body of John, whom she loved.

The secret to that man being able to handle the holy sword as if it were his own is probably because he is the real owner of it.

“You really fool us until the end. The people of this world… !!”

“That’s what I want to say, Faust.”

Just as the feelings of hatred that had been washed away were about to rise again like flames, Helen Walker stepped forward and said,

“Because of you, our world has been horribly destroyed and ruined. The only humans left are me and Arwen. Because women couldn’t even have babies, the human race was practically extinct. In the end, the demon king named Faust brought about the end of the world. Are you satisfied?”

“I have no desire to talk to an ignorant idiot like you, Helen.”

“I don’t know anything? What do you mean you don’t know?”

There is no need to tell this guy about the human purification plan.

I don’t even want to say

Now I wasn’t in the mood.

“I know very well what’s going on? You are the Great Demon King who brought ruin to the world, a great evil who repeats merciless and senseless slaughter. Nothing else, right? I’m here to avenge the people who lost their lives by killing you. You didn’t think you’d kill so many people and you’d be safe, right? You will die here by my hand. The final weapon is already in my hands.”

“The final weapon? Don’t talk like a tool. Is that a human body? Can you control the first hero’s body as you please? Are you ignoring his emotions and feelings?”

“I heard from the great sage. It is said that the first hero, John, decided to become a weapon for mankind “of his own will”. It allows you to fight the demons for humanity as you wish. What’s wrong? In the first place, I don’t know what you know about the first hero and you’re interfering. A stranger from another world.”

“You can’t speak. I thought he was a bit smart… ”

“That’s my point, Faust. I also thought you were a bit of a brainy person. I didn’t know that he was an idiot who couldn’t even overcome his emotions and tried to destroy mankind.”

The clatter of footsteps stopped.

When we were close enough, we glared at each other and exchanged warlike glances.

The battle atmosphere was heating up.

“It’s dangerous, Master! Misha will protect you! Hide behind Misha!”

“Arwen! I leave that elf to you!”

Following Helen’s instructions, Arwen stopped Misha from running toward me.

Mischa Greenwood growled with an expression like a cold killing machine, not reminiscent of her usual dumb personality.

“Go away!! Don’t block the way to the master! Something like a human!!!”

“It’s absurd to hear such a thing from a former elven queen who calls herself a slave to that human. Anyway, I really wanted to settle with you. It was 3-1 in that square, so even if I won, I didn’t feel like winning.”

“It’s called Vicky!! I have to protect my master!!”

“Try to get out of the way.”

“I’m going to kill you!!!”

As Misha cast a wide-area explosion magic with her staff and Arwen wielded a saw wave to counter it, the fight between the elves and humans and the strongest of each faction began.

I also feel comfortable when Misha takes care of Arwen, a burdensome guy.

Because I want to focus on Helen now.

“Helen, do you know the story of the first hero and Irene? Do you know what kind of story the woman stabbed by the holy sword lived with?”

“I know. Didn’t you say you heard from the great sage?”

“Then, have you thought about how shocked Irene will be when she sees the first hero’s body being raped with a mere tool?”

“Absolutely. In the first place, I hoped for such an effect and hid the final weapon.”

“… Oh yeah? with pleasure. In the end, you guys are always harassing Irene.”

“In the first place, Irene, who brought the demons and tried to annihilate mankind, did the wrong thing first—Kkeuh!”

There is no reason to listen any more.

I grabbed Helen by the neck with my left hand and lifted her up.

Helen struggled in the air.

“Oh, what a great grip… Since I absorbed the power of the Dragon King, this is only natural… But do you think I would have tried to fight you without any countermeasures? Apart from the final weapon, I have a plan to kill you.”

“Helen. I can’t spend much time on something as trivial as you. I have no intention of making you understand my meaning.”

“Keuk… It sounds like it has some noble meaning. On the subject of a mass murderer who indiscriminately slaughtered people to vent his anger… !!”

Helen had no interest in Faust’s intentions anyway.

She was only looking for a chance to avenge humanity by killing Faust.

‘Stupid guy. If you contact me like this, I’d rather thank you. I’m creating the environment to use 『Shaminus』 with my own hands.’

Shaminus was a magic specialized in murder that melted the muscles and bones of the opponent it came in contact with like jelly.

While fighting Faust, he tried to create a timing for his body to touch him, but he himself approached first.

Helen laughed and mocked Faust’s foolishness.

“Whoops… You may have thought of strangling me, but you have dug your own grave. Tremble, Faust… And let them die in despair.『Shaminer—』”

“Strangle him to death?”

“—Ugh!!!”

The ultimate death chant cut off leaving one last letter behind.

As Faust pressed Helen’s prayers with his formidable grip, his voice ceased to come out.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

“I expected at least that a cunning guy like you wouldn’t stand up to me without any countermeasures. He must have prepared a magic capable of killing me.”

“Ugh!! Ugh!!!”

“You’re playing a shallow trick. stupid child… !!”

With the oxygen supply cut off, Helen hurriedly tapped the back of Faust’s hand with her flushed face.

It was a sign asking him to let go, but Faust strangled him even harder.

‘Oh, no… At this rate, let alone Shaminus, I’ll suffocate to death! It was careless… No matter how powerful magic you have, you can’t use it if you can’t memorize the chant!’

“Are you choking to death, Helen? Don’t worry. I won’t let you suffocate.”

‘Keugh… ! This baby! ‘

Faust sharpened the fingertips of his right arm and took a stabbing posture.

“Ouch!! Ugh!!!”

“The struggle has become more intense. Do you think even wise men don’t want to die the same as normal people?”

‘Damn it… ! someone help me! I can’t stand it! Arwen! What is Arwen doing!’

Helen desperately rolled her eyes to find her confidant, but Arwen was being pushed back by Misha and couldn’t afford to save her.

‘No, that’s right. final weapon! The final weapon, John! Me, save me! Hurry up to save me!’

“The first hero is currently being blocked by Irene. There is no one to help you.”

“uuu!!!”

I broke the lingering feelings of the wise man who couldn’t take his eyes off the first hero and Irene.

“I told you, Helen. no time to waste on you Did you try to kill me to spread the reverse electrode? It’s a pity, but you can’t be a great person to change history. He’s the type to die after only playing supporting roles for the rest of his life.”

“uuu!!!!”

“You must know that you are a great guy, but you are just one of the souls to be purified.”

When the long outstretched blade pierced the sage’s body, my right hand was already holding Helen’s heart.

“… … … … … … .”

“Repent for your sins in the World Tree, Helen Walker.”

Helen’s heart was ripped out and she died on the spot.

Now, all that was left was to negotiate with Irene and the so-called final weapon.
