I -Kuromiya Haine- and the group are still in the middle of saving Mother Earth Mantle.
Or more like, it was supposed to be a simple mission where once we manage to do it once, it will be over, but because that once doesn’t happen at all, we are facing a long trek.
“…”
“…….”
“………..”
Yorishiro and Shiva, who are together with me in this mission, were silent.
This situation where, no matter how many times we try, there’s no progress. Even our hearts were exhausted.
This place is the danger zone that no one steps into, the Nameless Desert.
Inside the black hole that has been placed at the depths of this desert, Mantle is sealed, or so we think. In terms of probability, it could be that even her soul has been crushed by the gravity of the black hole, or maybe she was thrown into a different world from the warped space created there. Those possibilities are present as well.
We are betting on the possibility that Mantle can return to this world.
And so, by using the only element that can go against the dark element, we are trying to shoot through the core of the Black Hole, but…how many times has it been already?
A hundred? A thousand?
Yorishiro was shooting the light divine power and Shiva and I were doing the support to make it so that it hits the target, but it isn’t going well at all.
In the first place, the more compressed the core is, the higher the gravity, is how the Black Hole works. That’s why the size of the core is one hundredth the size of a grain of sand.
Just that one point makes it close to impossible to shoot at it, and yet, because the surroundings of the Black Hole don’t even allow the reflection of light, we don’t know exactly where the core is.
Even with the accuracy of Shiva who has mastered the wind gun technique, we can’t do anything.
“Ah geez, another failure.” (Yorishiro)
After thousands of test fires turning out in fruitless effort, Yorishiro lets out a sigh as if she was already tired of this.
“My whole body is sticky with sweat and sand… Hey, how about we move to the oasis and have a break? I want to dip in water and get refreshed-desu wa.” (Yorishiro)
“Again?! Didn’t we have a break just a few moments ago?!” (Shiva)
Due to piling failure after failure, everyone’s heart was in shambles and were irritable.
The normally bad relationship of Shiva and Yorishiro was even worse right now.
“The body of a woman is delicate. We are in such a harsh environment, and that’s exactly why there’s the need to take the proper care! Ah geez! Who was the one that left the Black Hole in such a damn hot desert?!” (Yorishiro)
Yorishiro is snapping in a way different from usual?!
This is proof that she is being quite mentally cornered.
“In the first place, Shiva! If you weren’t here, Haine-san and I would be all alone and we would be able to bath in the water and go kyakyafufu! But thanks to you, it has been divided into male and female! You are in the way! Why are you here?!” (Yorishiro)
“You people told me to come together! I as well don’t want to see your naked body anyways! If it is mixed bathing, I would prefer doing it with Juo!!” (Shiva)
No good! Because of the heat, the two are getting irritated?!
We didn’t want to make our time here pointless, so we have endured until now, but we have to put an end to this soon!
The rescue of Mantle is impossible, we should give up.
The problem of the Demon Lords can’t be put aside, so we can’t waste anymore time.
It would be best to return as soon as possible and prepare to go against the Demon Lords.
Was our choice of saving Mantle mistaken from the very beginning?
(Hmph, those are bad faces you got there, you people.)
“Everyone is doing their best in trying to save Mantle, so it can’t be helped that they are tired.”
Huh?!
In this Nameless Desert where there shouldn’t be anyone but us, we heard voices.
We turned around to see what it was, and there, two monsters were lined up.
“Phalaris! And also…!” (Haine)
I think I have seen him before. That humanoid water living being kind of impression this monster gives off…Water Demon, Mephistopheles.
Isn’t that the body Coacervate used in the surface world?!
Then the reason it is here now must mean…!
“Coacervate and Nova huh!” (Haine)
Within the six Gods of Creation, they were the central figures against the humans. Why are they here?!
“…Then, I will be having you see your last moments here.” (Coacervate)
(Gaaah!! Unhand me, unhand meee!!)
Inside the hand of Mephistopheles, there’s a single lizard struggling.
The soul voice coming from that lizard is without doubt that of Coacervate.
There’s two Coacervates?
What is the meaning of this?!
“The polluted me, that abyss that is spreading in front of us is the most fitting as your grave.” (Coacervatwo)
(D-Don’t tell me, you bastard…! Stop it! Why are you doing such a horrible thing?! I am you, you know?!) (Coacervate)
“You who refused your bond with humans are already not a God. And so, you don’t share the same title as Water God. Evil spirits are supposed to be exorcised.” (Coacervatwo)
(STOOOOP!!) (Coacervate)
Without caring about the lizard’s desperate struggle, Mephistopheles positioned in pitching form and threw the lizard…directly at the Black Hole that absorbs everything.
(Ugyaaaaa!!!)
“Now, Inflation! Quasar! At the place where my polluted self is being crushed, there’s the core of the Black Hole!!” (Coacervatwo)
Ah! I see!!
A Black Hole doesn’t allow light to reflect, but a soul is different. If it is to follow its destination, even we can follow it outside the Black Hole.
The only way to investigate the inside of the Black Hole!
“Shiva! Take position! There’s only one chance!!” (Haine)
“Kugh, what’s with this development!!” (Shiva)
Shiva is confused, but I am as well, you know.
But there’s no way I can let this chance slip by, so we both line up the wind and gravity lenses.
(The polluted Coacervate has divided recently, so he is weakened! He doesn’t have the strength to cling onto the Schwarzschild radius! In other words, his soul will surely be crushed by the center of the Black Hole!) (Nova)
Even Nova gave out advise!
What in the world is happening?!
“Aim for that moment and… [Holy Light Line]!!” (Yorishiro)
Yorishiro shoots a light beam.
This passed through the lens of Shiva and I, and with the angling of Shiva, it flies at the place where lizard Coacervate’s soul was crushed.
It entered the Black Hole and…
…….
*GWOOOOON!*
“Kyaaaaaa!!” (Yorishiro)
“Did we do it?!” (Shiva)
The Black Hole was destroyed.
The core has been erased by the light divine power and all the light caught in the Schwarzschild radius was released all at once, dispersing everywhere.
It was an overwhelming explosion.
