Both Pharaoh and I are pointing our swords to the ground and breathing roughly.
"Kukuku... hahaha..."
Pharaoh laughs happily as he shakes his healthy body.
"Alios. Thousands of years ago, there were very few people who could compete with me.... that's a lot."
No, that's not true.
"Fufu... don't be modest"
At that moment, Pharaoh smiled bitterly.
I noticed. [M]
The body of the first swordsman is beginning to fade.
"Fa, Mr. Faras....."
"Never mind. Of course."
As he stood up slowly, Pharaoh put his sword in his sheath.
"Let's finish the training. I bet you got something, huh?
"Yes... of course."
In the course of the battle, there was a scene where my cheat code evolved.
Lesser Attack Up, Medium Attack Up.
Of course, you can also choose the original "Small Attack Up", so you can use your abilities according to the situation.
I also got a new "All uses of water attribute magic". Literally, all the magic in the water attributes is now available.
--But that's not all I got from this training.
I feel like I've learned a lot about how to handle the sword of the first swordsman, or the mental I want to fight... something I can't express with my skills.
My abyss seemed to have grown even higher.
"Fu... it's Arios. Excellent absorption. As I fought, I felt you getting stronger and stronger."
"Haha... I'm sorry."
"Arios will continue to grow stronger. Until I'm out of control."
No, no....
That's it. That's it.
Pharaoh still smiles bitterly at my thoughts.
"Are you being modest again? I'll tell you the truth. You are my descendant and the descendant of the goddess."
"Eh...!?
"Fufu"
With a deep expression, Pharaoh took the red jewel out of his pocket.
Exactly what was once in the body of a giant oak or black grizzly.
The gem shines and fades for a moment.
And...
"This is....."
When I realized it, Faras and I were in a completely strange place.
There is nothing around.
Beyond the horizon, even empty spaces persist.
There are no villagers who have been watching the training until now.
Only me and Pharaoh are here.
…………
When I breathe heavily, I put my sword in my sheath. [M]
"I see. Is this a confidential story?"
"That's a good guess. Exactly."
Pharaoh continued to play with the jewels of his right hand.
"You know that, don't you? The gravel and the red stone... these two have an unknown power."
"Yes... I felt so bad that I didn't like it."
Even Remila, the best magician, could not analyze the granite.
According to her, analysis is impossible with modern technology. It could even be a relic of God.....
"Let me be frank. The granite was created by our great enemies - $% & '$"
"Eh...?
What is it?
I didn't hear you very well.
"Damn, it's still sealed... He's a well-prepared man."
"It's sealed... You mean you can't call him by his name?
"Oh, they're interfering with people's perceptions and trying not to understand their names."
Interfering with people's perceptions.
What is that? It's too much.
"Perhaps... Mr. Faras and the others were fighting them?
"Oh, I was able to leave thousands of years ago. It didn't lead to a crusade."
"Well, unfortunately, I can't explain everything... even the goddess Diez, who was in charge of this world, can't win alone. So far, you know the danger, don't you?
"Yes... very much"
"The stone is a relic of the Great Enemy in modern times. So we can create phenomena that we don't understand today."
…………
"And the red stone will be a gift from the goddess against the shadow stone. I'll show up eventually. Leave everything to the heroes."
"Hero...."
"That's you, Mr. Arios."
That's what appeared - the nostalgic goddess Diez.
"Are you....."
"Alios. It's been a long time."
The legendary presence that also appears in fairy tales - the goddess Diez smiles beautifully at me.
"Please forgive me. If we can, we'd like to give you all the information... Excuse me, I have limited time as an ideologist."
"No... that's fine..."
I also experienced something called a philosophy the other day.
Something about your consciousness made you feel uncomfortable. I was more tired than usual.
Even if you meet me in such a state, I should be grateful. [M]
--That's not what bothers me.
"Lady Goddess. Just a little....."
"Yeah, that's right."
As the goddess Diez approached me, she touched my cheek with warm hands.
"Arios McBa. You are the descendant of Pharaoh... and of me."
"... no."
I can't believe it.
No way, no way....
"Well then, if I had the Shadowstone, I wouldn't run away...."
"That's right. The blood of God that flows through you is stopping the gravel from escaping."
…………
Seriously.
I didn't expect to be connected there. [M]
"And... we decided to entrust everything to our descendants. Cheat code manipulation... send the power of God to a humble and positive child. That was you, Arios."
…………
"Fufu, please give my regards to Vienna. I'm a little out, but I'm a very capable kid."
"Haha... yes. I understand."
At that moment.
Something very warm touched my cheek. [M]
It's the lips of the goddess.
It seemed like an unparalleled soft force would spring from the bottom of the body.
"Unfortunately, we have no freedom of movement. I'm sorry I'm leaving everything to you...."
"No, I'm fine."
I firmly accept the word of the goddess. [M]
"I have people I want to protect now. Ray, M, Mary... there's a lot of other people out there that can't be helped. I can't lose to protect everyone."
"Fu, I told you so. That's why I'm the swordsman."
Pharaoh put his arms together with satisfaction.
"And then you seem to be dragging my blood for nothing. You should be aware of women's preferences.
"... to...?
The topic changed suddenly, so I don't know what it is.
"Woman? What are you talking about?
"... no, you look just like me in an extra place..."
"Fufu. Mr. Faras was terrible during his life."
"That's enough. Forget about it."
Pharaoh sighed boringly as the goddess shook him.
I wonder.
I don't understand the conversation.
"... well, don't joke about it, I want you to be careful with a kid named Em. You're going to need the support of a strong man."
"Em... yes. I understand."
Hmm. That's a good answer.
Pharaoh finally struck me firmly on the shoulder and a powerful smile came to mind. [M]
Well, Alios, I'll see you again. In this era... I'll leave it to you. "
