CH-119.2
Chapter 119.2
A large scarlet monument stone. It's bigger than the others towering upwards and it's stored a vast amount of magic power. This stone is probably the core of ｢Goa Gurum｣.
"If we destroy this no more ghouls should be born." (Eleonor)
Eleonor covers the monument with ｢De Igeria｣ and dampens its magic.
"…Break it…" (Zeshia)
Zeshia pours magic power into Enhalle causing the sword to shine brightly and increase greatly in length.
"…Eiiiii…!!" (Zeshia)
A noise rings out as Enhalle and the monument collide and compete with each other. The particles of magic that scattered from the strike blew away everything around them, however, when everything settled the monument remained flawless.
"Hiihi. It's useless useless. The scarlet king has been pouring his magic into this for 2000 years. It's not the sort of thing two stupid little girls can break." (Zabro)
Zabro descends from the sky.
"No more running around." (Zabro)
Grunting and groaning a group of ghouls emerge. They must number around 500.
Eleonor and Zeshia were completely surrounded but Eleonor was paying special attention to one in the group.
"…Guuuuu…"
It was Ledoriano. He had completely lost all sanity and turned into a ghoul.
"…Ledoriano-kun…" (Eleonor)
From the group, Laos and Heine appeared as well.
All had turned into ghouls and faced Eleonor with hostility.
"…Laos-kun…Heine-kun…" (Eleonor)
"It's a pity but never mind. I'll break your body apart and make it so you don't feel pain or sorrow any more." (Zabro)
Zabro holds his hands out.
"First I'll have to block that obstructive magic." (Zabro)
The monuments in the vicinity were all covered in a black light. They emitted a black light that shot out and connected to all the other stones forming a magic formation.
Though it was still daytime the castle was covered in darkness.
The magic that formed was Absorption Magic Darknes Domain ｢Gino Greanos｣
Enhalle's light weakened and the ｢De Igeria｣ that was covering the monument disappeared.
"…Magic power is taken…" (Zeshia)
"Hiihi. How is my ｢Gino Greanos｣? It has the effect of absorbing the magic of enemies within its darkness domain. How long until your magic empties? About a minute I suppose?" (Zabro)
"…Forgive…" (Eleonor)
Eleonor mutters something.
"Nn? What? I can't hear you. Have you lost the power of speech already?" (Zabro)
Eleonor looked up and stared sternly at Zabro.
"Even if you apologise I said I'll never forgive you!" (Eleonor)
The light of ｢Ask｣ covers Eleonor and Zeshia's bodies.
"Hiihi. You don't know anything about magic do you? You should take a good look into the abyss. Magic doesn't reach beyond ｢Gino Greanos｣. No matter how much you try to use ｢Ask｣ if you can't gather the important feelings then it's useless. I assume you were trying to get the help of those 10,000 Zeshia's?" (Zabro)
"If you're on about feelings then there's enough here." (Eleonor)
Magic letters appear around Eleonor floating in the air and drifting upwards.
Holy water flows from the letters before turning into a sphere of water that covered her.
"｢Eleonor｣." (Eleonor)
"What!?" (Zabro)
Zabro looked astonished.
"…Wha…how…? The magic ｢Eleonor｣ is using itself…? Impossible…What type of method is that…?" (Zabro)
Zabro's doubt quickly faded as he was attacked by astonishment again.
The light from ｢Ask｣ swelled up dozens of times.
"…The magic of ｢Ask｣…!? What's going on…!? Where the hell are you getting your magic from…!?" (Zabro)
"Desire lives in our origins and I am ｢Eleonor｣. The magic that creates origins." (Eleonor)
"Don't deceive me! No origins are being created anywhere! There's no one here but you, the ghouls and me!" (Zabro)
"It's hard to create an origin so therefore all I've done is create the desire within an origin." (Eleonor)
Zabro was momentarily lost for words.
"…Such a thing…impossible… ｢Eleonor｣ with magic only created desire…!? How is that even possible…!?" (Zabro)
Eleonor holds up her hand and the magic that's formed takes the shape of a gun port.
The light of ｢Ask｣ gathers in the gun port.
"It's time for you to be spanked." (Eleonor)
A shell of light ｢Teo Trias｣ is fired from the gun port.
It shot right through the stone monument leaving a trail behind like a comet. Immediately after there was a bang and a burst of magic splitting open before everything subsided.
The huge monument had completely broken into fragments and scattered everywhere.
The effects of ｢Gino Greanos｣ disappeared and the darkness faded away.
"…Guu…impossible…This old man's anti-magic…broken in a single blow… such a thing…" (Zabro)
Zabro had been caught up in the aftermath of ｢Teo Trias｣ and was grovelling on the ground.
It seems he had used up all his magic trying to use anti-magic so he couldn't get up off the ground.
"The barriers disappeared." (Zeshia)
Eleonor nods at Zeshia's words.
"Then let's cure everyone right away." (Eleonor)
The light of ｢Ask｣ spreads all over the castle grounds and covers the entire castle before drawing a huge magic formation.
"Sanctuary Resurrection ｢Teo Ingaru｣" (Eleonor)
A soft, warm light gently shines on the castle.
The horns on the ghouls gradually disappear, their rotten skin is restored and their origins are healed.
Everyone regained their original form before fainting and falling down.
"…Impossible…impossible…such a thing? Why…? Those ghouls were made by the scarlet monument kings monument…why? By a human type magic…?" (Zabro)
"You'd better study the basics of magic more." (Eleonor)
"…What…did you say!? Are you saying this old man doesn't know the basics of magic!?" (Zabro)
"Is the effect of magic the same when experienced users use it?" (Eleonor)
Zabro raises an eyebrow and spits out his words.
"Those kind of things are decided by the magic power of the user. That's why it's so important for me to know why you were able to destroy the monument of the scarlet monument king—" (Zabro)
Zabro stopped himself as if he had noticed something.
"Hmm… The scarlet monument kings monument might be great but." (Eleonor)
With a nonchalant smile, Eleonor raised her forefinger.
"I'm the demon kings magic." (Eleonor)
