Doom was suddenly returning to me. If you noticed, there was no sign of Jake in that place who was supposed to have been fighting until earlier. When Doom, shocked by the cold sweat, checked his surroundings, there was a fallen Osiria and a man eater on the spot.
"Are you okay, both of you?"
The two wake up to respond to Doom's call for calm back. It's a strange story that evil spirits lose consciousness and wake up, but this seemed to be a real thing.
"... what about here?
"I don't know"
In front of the Dooms, at some point the lake was spreading. The surroundings were white, but the lake, surrounded by white sand, was there even with clear water by its horror. The transparency of the water was such that it seemed as if there was nothing there, and even though it was a lake so deep that the bottom could not be seen, it was likely to be visible as long as the light reached it. They are Dooms who are made to feel like they are looking at the earth from above the sky because they are so transparent and so deep.
"If there is a God or a Spirit on the sky, is this how you feel?
"Come on, I wonder. I don't even want to know how the Spirit feels."
"Duh, I'm thirsty. Can I have this water?
Doom nodded at Maneater's demands.
"Oh, I don't mind. However, spit it out as soon as you feel strange"
"Yes."
"... Doom. That's what happened to us until just now."
"Oh, I have a prediction. You've been having nightmares, haven't you?
"In a way, it was a nightmare."
Osiria remembered what she was experiencing. It does depend on how you describe it, but that would be a nightmare. Because that was a sight that Osiria wanted and could never get.
"What did you see?
"... a story if my fate wasn't screwed around. Happiness - I guess it was. But in my soul, anointed with darkness, even though I know what makes me happy, I will never realize it."
"It's a nightmare, indeed."
"Doom, what did you see?
"I... dreamed I'd keep getting killed."
Doom was grinning bitterly. Osiria is amazed at what Doom was dreaming about.
"Kill you? How."
"The enemy was Jake. I've grown more than I have now - well, maybe when Jake grows up, he'll be like that. He was a much stronger knight than Alberto. Maybe it's approaching Titania, too. He kicked the hordes of demon kings that Annomarie had unleashed as if they were traveling in a deserted field, and he approached me. No matter what attack I launched, no matter how much I tried to escape. He cornered me and killed me.
I wonder if you've been through that kind of scene about a hundred degrees. But I'm still not sure how you can kill me. The only thing I know is that Jake's attack reaches me. That was all. This is what we knew as a possibility when we first met. Now I know why you're upset about him before he's unusual. He instinctively hates me because he's the only one who can kill me. "
"... you're not gonna get killed by a kid like that."
"Really? I'm definitely getting stronger, but his growth is unusual. If it's just the rate of growth, who's faster in the world? 'Cause a boy who never even had a sword, meat forced with the Demon King in less than two years, huh? Think about it normally. It's impossible. No matter how blessed you are with your talents, no matter how blessed you are with your master and your environment, that can't and shouldn't be. It's beyond the limits of a human species."
"You admit to losing?
"You can't lose if you can't beat him."
Doom's words were also surprising to Osiria. Because I thought Doom was thinking about doing Jake directly. But Doom smiled and told me more horrible thoughts.
"My way is to give them inevitable despair. It's about giving them a nightmare that won't allow them to divert attention. In that sense, my winning or losing is second to none. Extremely, if he even feels desperate, I can lose.
The only thing that bothers me is... "
Doom thought about what the illusion meant earlier. What sight did you see earlier come from fulfilling 'where'? Simply your imagination, or something else. He was killed in various circumstances, but all of that was too specific. background, his own breath, his eyes burned by Jake's hatred, or his eyes as clear as if he had understood something.
But there is one thing in common with all of them. Just the fact that Jake is an adult and the fact that he will be killed. That means if you return the back, you won't be killed until he grows up.
"(If that's like a predictive dream, and he won't be killed until he's an adult, then I just have to work out a plan to kill Jake by then. Then you have plenty of time, and I highly doubt Jake will be alive until then in the first place.
If Oranzebul's behavior is as I imagined it would be, then not so much time -) "
When Doom thought of that calmly, Maneater suddenly screamed.
"Ahhh!
"! What's up!?
Doom rushes over to Maneater. The man eater was nodding by holding his stomach.
"Because..."
"Are you crazy?
"This one's getting awesome!
Maneater's statement was strange for his painful expression, but at the same time, he was beginning to restore that body to its original, earthworm-like shape because Maneater couldn't see the change. But the figure had become so huge that it did not resemble the original, and the teeth grown in his mouth had changed much sharper. It was obviously a transformation into a different form from the original alien.
Seeing the variation of the anomaly at a glance, Doom's decision was quick.
"Man Eater! Patience!
When Doom punched through Maneater's belly with a chunk of evil spirits, Osiria was followed by a mind-blowing decision on the wound. Moreover, did Osiria understand Doom's intentions, and when he refluxed to squeeze Maneater's blood out of his chosen wounds and created a fountain of blood, there was a great deal of black blood all around him.
Doom considered the transformation of the man-eater to be due to the water, and drained the water that took in every bit of blood. Individuals whose man-eaters were fused as a result were desperate, but Doom was relieved. I'm not sure what would have happened if the man-eater had grown, rampant, with the momentum earlier.
A man eater returning to the appearance of an evil spirit walks toward Doom with sorrow.
