[The Seal Breaks]

Shortly before then.

Tirna was facing Shangarula who had the rare skill of《Emperor Fist》 like her, but he never even tried to Beastify.

It was unknown if he was going easy on Tirna or if there was some sort of reason behind it, but he was fighting Tirna in his original form as is.

But like the other saintesses, Tirna benefitted from the power of thunder and Phoenix Seal, and was much stronger than before; she completely overpowered Shangarula.

“Haa!”

――Thwack!

“Tsk!?” Shangarula clicked his tongue annoyedly, yet he still didn’t Beastify; he just flipped back, widening their distance.

Knowing Shangarula’s nature, he supposedly wouldn’t have stay silent when he was being cornered like this.

Tirna, wondering about that, asked him his real purpose, “Why are you not fighting seriously?”

“Ha? It’s obviously because I don’t have to.”

“You’re lying. I’ve heard that you’re fighting and killing to kill time. Then this situation should be terribly boring to you. Yet you don’t even have the intention to bring out your real strength. Why?”

“Tsk, a brat like you noticed it too, eh.” Shangarula scratched his head in a sullen manner, but in the next moment, his expression changed, “Ha, perfect timin’! Imma show you why!”

“!?”

Shangarula then jumped over Tirna’s head and slammed his fist on the ground.

Ahead his line of sight was Exa who was locked in battle with Elysium.

What on earth is going on here?

As I was standing still, confused about the sudden event, I caught sight of the saints surrounding me.

Furthermore, they all had their Sacred Treasures touching the ground, of which points of contact were drawn a formation interconnecting with one another.

“Exa!”

――Spark!

“Gh!?”

“Arca!?”

Arca instantly tried to come to my rescue, but the already activated magical formation was apparently quite powerful and she couldn’t even approach.

“Kh, not good. Even my arrow can’t pierce through it.”

It was the same for everyone else, and they all bit their lips.

Meanwhile, Elysium shook his head and said, “It’s futile. This is a magical formation for breaking the seal of our Goddess. It’s not something mere saintesses like you can shatter.”

“You, this is what you were planning from the very start…!?”

“Correct. We have no intention of dealing with you from the beginning. Our main purpose is the resurrection of Phinis, the Goddess of the End.”

“Elysium… Gh…” I fell to my knee.

It felt as if all the power in my body was being sucked out.

Vermillion Bird Form was released before I knew it, and I kept helplessly staring at Elysium.

Then, the magical formation became brighter, the light rose high up in the sky.

At that time.

““““““!?””””””

From the ground near me, white hands stretched out.

They were female hands closely resembling to the ones which had dragged in Fluga-sama.

Following that, out crawled the rest of the body.

“…Ah …uhh~…”

――It was a young woman.

She was a beautiful woman with a neatly-arranged features, although some traces of childishness were still left on her face.

She didn’t look a bit like someone who would be called the ‘Queen of Monsters’; was she really Phinis-sama, the Goddess of the End?

Just then.

“……”

“!”

I suddenly met eyes with her.

After which, Phinis-sama smiled softly and reached out her hands. “My, cute child… my cute, child…”

“U-uhh…”

As I was confused about how to react, Elysium knelt to her side and said, “Our Goddess—Phinis. We have now released your seal according to the covenant. Please lend your great power to us demi-humans.”

“!”

Oh right.

The fact that Phinis-sama’s seal was broken meant that they were one step closer to the new world of only demi-humans they desired.

I have to do something… I was biting my lips but,

――Stab!

“…Huh?” At that moment, a strange sound echoed in the surroundings, and I raised my eyes.

“…Wha!?”

What I saw was the sight of Phinis-sama’s fingertips stretching out and penetrating Elysium’s chest.

“Gah…!? W-why…!?” Elysium threw up blood, confused.

Phinis-sama then told him with a cold expression, “…I don’t need, the demi-humans…”
