23: The spirit of sacrifice
Once upon a time, this dark, cold world was filled with nothing but boundless smog and immortal ancient dragons.
However, according to Bubbles and Rice Shan's explanation, these ancient dragons are just shadows of the great race that once was...... So you can cut off someone's tail in front of them, and they won't talk about you (laughs)
Suddenly, one day, I don't know what the reason is, maybe it's the dry weather, maybe it's the old thief Miyazaki deliberately.
The Ancient Dragon Realm, which has stopped for a while, has walked through the water...... Oh no, it's a fire.
There is change in a world where there has never been such a change, and change means the formation of rules.
This world, which seems to be a stagnant space, has light and darkness, order and chaos, life and death......
Maybe the great races were there when they were still there, only to be taken away by the way when they left, and this time they had it again.
When these things were born, some new life was born near the first fire.
These born beings have gained rules from the first fire, and have become the existence of regular gods in a sense.
Unfortunately, because the basis of the existence of these rules is only a flame that ignites for a while and will be extinguished at some point.
They have less control over the rules than the gods who are mere derivatives of the rules.
To some extent, they are just shadows under the flames...... Can shadows control the flames themselves?
This can be seen from the current situation of Izaris, the capital of witches.
The original witches received the power of chaos from the flames, which represented chaos, and with the blessing of the power of chaos, the witches of Izaris learned to use the fire of chaos.
However, the power of chaos that is truly the opposite of order is simply not an existence that can be explained by the fire of chaos alone.
When the old witch was worried about the extinguishment of the first flame, she wanted to use the formation of the chaotic fire to deduce the cause of the formation of the first flame.
Terrible chaos has swept across the Chaos Capital.
Except for Clarna, who ran fast enough and didn't seem to be harmed, all the inhabitants of the Witches, including Izaris, were corrupted and controlled by the Chaos Fire.
The Demon Clan was born......
In addition to Krana, there are two witches who are also lucky...... Only half of the chaos was eroded, and it didn't completely turn into a monster.
The reason why these two witches were lucky was that when chaos erupted, they were far away from the witch capital of Izaris.
One of them followed the ancient pact between the witch and the Sun King Gwen, and became a firewoman.
The other one is the witch Kragg, who was slashed by with a sword and slashed at by the sword after seeing Y. Sugi, and the lower half of her body was a huge spider.
She is because she takes care of the daily life of her sister who is a fireproof girl, and she is only half "lucky" with her sister to be eroded by chaos.
…… As for whether I think this situation is lucky or unlucky, I will say another ......
If Mishan hadn't brought Sister Clarna with her, then Kragg wouldn't have believed that Mishan was capable of helping her and her sister out of misery.
Only the witches who have really come into contact with the truest side of chaos know how terrifying the power of chaos really is.
Even the Sun King Gwen, who had formed an ancient alliance with the witch clan when they fought against the ancient dragons together, had no way to help these witches who had been corrupted by chaos.
Only an army can be sent to destroy these demons......
Hundreds of years by his sister's side have long since made Kragg give up all hope.
So when the real hope came, Kragg didn't even know what attitude he should use.
Is it fun? Is it sad? Is it a plea? Still is......
The confusion in Kragg's mind turned out to be that the lower half of her body, which had become a red spider, twitched a little.
"Won't you take me to your sister?" Seeing that Kragg was still in front of him, Mishan raised his head and asked.
"Oh oh......" Cragg, who remembered that his sister was the focus, hurriedly turned his fat lower body.
This one seems cute...... But with the spider-like lower body of Kragg, it becomes a terrifying action, so that the other team members who raised their weapons as soon as they followed Mishan came in looked very entangled.
Noticing the entanglement of these people, Mishan pondered the words for a moment and then explained:
"Don't look at her as scary, in fact, she is also a hard-working person running around for her sister."
Cragg, who was leading the way in front, paused slightly after hearing Mishan's words, and Krana, who also knew the current situation of the two sisters, also subconsciously glanced up at Mishan.
"Remember the egg-bearer we just saw at the entrance to this cave?" Mishan didn't continue to explain after explaining, but brought up the two people who were prostrate on the ground and carrying some tumors on their backs outside the door of the boss battle room belonging to Kragg.
When they first saw it, several people around Mi Shan thought it was a new breed of living corpse, and they took up their weapons one after another.
Then these movements were stopped by Mi Shan, not only did he stop them, but Mi Shan also stared at these people with meaningful eyes for a while.
However, Mi Shan didn't explain to them the origin of these backers at that time, and now he mentions those people, so he naturally has to make up for them.
"The eggs that those people carry are the humanity that is burned by the flames of chaos."
"Humanity? So much? Because his sister is a fireproof woman, Roderick, who is very sensitive to human nature, said.
"How? It's not much for a fireproof woman. Mishan said.
"......" Roderick was silent for a while and asked, "For the fireproof girl, no matter how much humanity there is, it should stay in the body, right?" ”
"That's because the other firefighters weren't burned by the Chaos Fire." After answering Roderick's question, Mishan followed up and explained:
"In order to continue to protect the campfire she is responsible for, and to leave the light in the darkness for the undead living in the sick village, she bears the fire of chaos burning day and night."
At the same time, in order to ensure that she would not be burned to ashes by the Chaos Fire, she could only keep expelling the humanity that was burned by the Chaos Fire...... It is the egg that those who carry it. ”
"And the residents of those sick villages, in order to thank this fireproof woman for her kindness, will carry the eggs formed by human nature after being burned by chaos."
"If I'm not mistaken, that firefighter has been holding out for hundreds of years......"
"......" Mi Shan's words silenced the three people who accompanied him, this kind of self-sacrificing behavior is not unheard of, but this sacrifice that has persisted for hundreds of years still moves them.
"How much humanity does that have...... asked Roderick, who remembered his sister.
"No amount is enough, all the people who have been helping that firefighter hunt those human beings." Mishan raised his head as he spoke, glancing at Cragg, who was leading the way in front of him.
As if sensing Mishan's eyes, or having been eavesdropping on Mishan's words, the spider feet on the lower half of the witch's body stopped again. ()
