Chapter 229.
Dumbfounded as he stared at the falling brick dust. Clang. Suddenly a creepy murderous aura was felt from the front. I reflexively grabbed my magic wand and blocked the front.
Chomp! “Buzz!”
With a sharp metallic sound, I felt an irritating vibration. Iben unknowingly took out his dagger and ran, and I took the shield-like stick. Close to her nose, a sharp murderous aura emanated from the woman.
“No, teeth vile bitch! Suddenly pulling out a knife while using magic?” Shouting in anger, Iben laughed, a horrible voice speaking.
“It’s too boring to kill him all at once with magic, isn’t it? Wait a moment. I’ll cut you up nice and proper and will keep it.”
“Don’t be ridiculous.”
I winced, glancing at the top of the mirror lying across the room.
“Who said it was easy to fall for? Pishion!” Grunt. Flames shot up between Eben and me.
“Ah!”
Iben cried out shrilly, walking away from me. Flames blazed on the side of the cute pink hair. The fire, not easily extinguished, engulfed half of Iben’s face. I gripped my magic wand tightly and watched the twisted Lieben with nervous eyes. “Damn, rat-like bitch!”
Probably too hot to hold her face on fire, she shouted like an evil spirit from hell.
“Dahh Timon!”
With Yvonne’s body at the center, something like black ground air snaked up. Opaque tentacles, they lunged straight at me. Dizzy eyes.
“Ah, Fritz Shawn!”
I grabbed my mirror wand to block my front and shouted the spell eagerly. “A clanging sound… did it stop it?
I gently opened my tightly closed eyes. As if trying to grab the wand from me, the tentacles wrapped around the stick and froze. But there wasn’t even time to catch my breath.
“I told you. Something like that can’t stop me now!”
“Woo!”
Sharp blades suddenly emerged from between the ice. Con! The frozen tentacles shattered, and the pole and shortsword collided again.
Like a light going out, a horrible woman with a melted face took another swing at me.
“Do you think killing me will make any difference? Saving the world, being praised by people, being loved by family members who didn’t receive it in the past? Hahaha!”
I stepped back and blocked the knife with my stick.
Clang! Clunk!
Exactly where did that skinny body come up with strength from, Leeben kept raining down knives with monster-like strength.
“Fight up. You’re finished, why? You’re a fake, the real male female is me!”
“Bah!”
It was hard to stop it, and I, who was falling backward, spied another opportunity.
“Fire ……”
Clang! But Iben was faster. The huge impact even made me lose my wand. And.
Boing! With an ominous explosion, the wand’s center broke. Leaving my hand and looking at the top end of the flying wand, I held my breath. “No, what ……”
There was no time to notice what was happening. Once again, the blade that was flying toward me struck the entirety of the remaining wand in a quick blow.
“Woo!”
Clang! Another violent impact hit the wrist. Iben brought his burnt face haphazardly close to me and grinned creepily.
“Do you think a little ancient magic makes a difference?”
“Ha, ha.”
The slap down was powerful. It didn’t seem like it would last long. Ee- The sound of a knife rubbing against a stick leaked out a suppressed groan.
“Poor Penelope. Can’t even save your own life, and you’re talking about killing anyone.” Like mocking me like that, Lieben cackled and said.
Pinned down by the wall behind me and her body, I desperately rolled and struggled, rolling my eyes. It was to find the top end of the broken magic wand. But the one that flew past was too far. Just like that, to die in such a ridiculous way?
“Can’t it be your way?”
Despair presents itself.
I don’t want to die.
“Why was I brought to the damn place to die!” At that moment. I desperately held on, something shining in my eyes.
Cracks!
During this time, Iben was still clinging to the mirror that was in his arms. Blue light spewed out, leaving tiny cracks in it.
–From now on, please listen to me carefully, young lady.
Meanwhile, the reason for obediently handing over the shard to Ikris came to mind.
Just before snatching the shard, an explosion was triggered. Although it wasn’t eliminated, tiny cracks appeared on the shard.
–The body of the intact Leila cannot be easily killed with magic. But after completing the shard, most of her power was invested into the mirror in order to remove the seal.
Breaking the mirror in that state, Leila will temporarily fall into an irresistible state, and by then …….
In order to break the mirror, only Iben can complete the mirror. There is only one chance.
I slowly recalled the story. But I wasn’t sure if I could do well with that kind of overreaching behavior from Callisto. But it had to be done.
“Hey, you’re under some kind of delusion.”
I didn’t mind the blade near my neck as I spoke. Even if it was just for a moment, to keep Iben in the room.
To make it serious.
“…… What?”
Suddenly looking at me as if Iben was surprised by my words. “The reason I want to kill you is not to be loved!”
At that moment, I clenched my teeth and attempted one last jump. Gathering all the strength I didn’t have, I violently pushed Iben away with my wand.
“Ugh!”
“It’s because I hate you!
Suddenly, I dropped back, and Lieben, who had dropped back, stepped back. The distance was widened. It was the opportunity.
“This game is like X!”
I stepped back as far as I could and immediately pushed my forehead forward with force. Ee! A huge impact hit the head. Stars flashed before my eyes.
“Ah!”
Iben wriggled her nose. Her blood flowed through the cracks of her hands, swirling like a dance. But it couldn’t just stay there. I patted my hair roughly, then pulled a dagger from my pocket.
You think you’re the only one with a dagger?
The dagger given by Callisto. “Aha!”
I gripped it tightly and screamed as I rushed into Liben’s arms. On the spot in the mirror with the crack.
“Whew!” The tip of the blade plunged down.
It swished and clanged. With the tip of the knife as the center, the mirror began to crack.
“Whew!”
After accurately stabbing down that spot, I didn’t stop either, but pushed harder. Leeben, who was attacked by a surprise attack, was forced to do nothing by me.
From the end of the room with the stairs to the place with the window directly opposite. Iben’s body that was pushing randomly towards me finally tripped on the window frame and stopped violently.
“Ah!”
“Whew, whew!”
I exhaled and lowered my sight. The cracked mirror unknowingly shattered. Rustle. One of them fell to the floor and shattered.
“Hey, you, you ……”
Like he was looking at it with me, Liben’s eyes widened. “You, how …… click click!”
Suddenly her body shook like an epileptic seizure and she suddenly spat out blood. A fishy odor splattered on her cheeks. A hot, dry touch running down her hand. I slowly lowered my eyes again.
“Uh ……”
The dagger I had inserted, outside the broken mirror, dug deep into Iben’s left chest. “Bang!”
Iben spurted blood once more. Her body fell through the window like it collapsed.
“Whew!”
I almost fell as well, and managed to grab the window frame and hold on.
“Why, why ……?”
Liben, who was folded backward like he was lying down, held the knife with a trembling hand and clutched one of my hands.
“…Why?”
It may have been an attack, but she wasn’t nervous at all, and she opened her blood-foaming mouth to ask.
“I just… want to live with the person I love.
“It used to be all me, I owned it! Duke and brother both!”
“But in the end, I failed. The in-laws who trampled them and resurrected them with my hands tried to kill me!”
Ibn shouted incoherently as blood stood up on his neck.
“I thought something would change in this life …… Why did you monopolize everyone this time?”
“How do you know how to kill me? How did the mirror break? Are you Belldandy? Callisto Legulus? Who is it, uh? Answer!”
I stared at her in a daze, looking around like it was my last struggle. Even if it was not necessarily her words, I succeeded, with the blood running down my chin. Tell me how little life Yvonne had left.
“Tell me, Penelope. What the hell did you do that everyone is hanging by a thread!” Yvonne didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, her face sobbing with an expression of not knowing.
“I don’t know.”
I replied witheringly.
It ended up killing everyone, and I don’t know when it started, but Yvonne always asked me those. How do you manipulate people. It’s like they’re in love, deeply pining, crazy. But I really don’t know. From a certain moment they started to love me.
“Don’t lie!”
I don’t know if my answer is unsatisfactory, but Liben screams with a frown on his face.
“Why? Are you afraid I’ll come back to life? Heck, it’s all over now, so tell me, Penelope. Hm? Why didn’t they end up being brainwashed by me! Uh?!”
Iben seemed aggravated and kept struggling. Suddenly something hot came up.
“You have nothing to be aggrieved about.”
Penelope died dozens, hundreds of times, and died again. The soul shatters and is catapulted to the other side, pulling the living, breathing me in.
“Just accept the care given and live as a true male female! You’re the one who took the male leads and ruined them again! I never thought about it, their love and all that!” My words stopped Yvonne from struggling. Looking at her somewhat dumbfounded expression, I also laughed my ass off.
“But there seems to be a clear difference between you and me.” I took a deep breath and gritted my teeth.
“If there’s a God in this world, the you who monopolizes everyone’s love but kicks it away with your own foot, the me who dies without one.”
“Who of the two would you give a chance?”
“No. No. ……”
Ibn’s face was distorted by the impact.
“This life is a chance for me!”
She shook her head and yelled.
“Do you think this will end? I’ll go back again! Start over, you! Everyone …… Bah!” She spat blood again and jumped roughly. I slowly loosened my grip on the dagger. Iben struggled in mid-air to catch me.
“Ah, no, no ……!”
“Goodbye, Iben.”
It’s dirty to meet, never to look again.
She had been squeezed more than halfway out the window and fell backwards without having time to use her hands. Iben began to fall horribly. Whew!
I looked down in silence until the slit-like blue pupils and rough, flowing pink hair became a blur.
In that moment, nothing was on my mind. Finally disposing of the damn monster, liberated, for the last time.
As usual, there was the joy of successfully completing the mission.
It ended like that.
