Chapter 115: Verdict
It looked like I'd seen it somewhere. Yugeo dragged his immobile legs forward desperately, and kept thinking with his almost numb mind. Yes, that's the face of the goblin seen in the Cave of the North two years ago. It is a portrayal of the inhabitants of the Dark Realm who want to chop up Yugeo and Yi Yan with a brute sword.
Leos and Wembell put their hands on Tizzie and Ronier's faces at the same time, and kept running their hands over their foreheads and cheeks as if to provoke their fears. The clever avoidance of the lips is due to the fact that it is a forbidden place for direct contact until the wedding vows are made. But - since this is a taboo matter, what kind of bullshit is the law that can do everything in its power to humiliate pre-marital girls? What is the meaning of such a law?
Sting. Suddenly, a sharp pain came from deep in his right eye. This is a wonderful pain that often arises when there is a question about the law and the church. Generally speaking, when you feel this pain, you subconsciously stop thinking. But now, and only now, the filthy behavior on the bed made Yugeo continue to think.
All kinds of laws and taboos are supposed to exist so that the inhabitants of the human world can live happily every day. You can't steal, you can't hurt anyone. Also, you can't disobey the Congregational Church. Because all the people obey these things, only then can the peace of the world be guaranteed.
But why are these laws 'forbidden'? Wouldn't it be enough to write these in those hundreds of pages of countless prohibitions? Everyone has to be respectful, respectful, loving, whatever. As long as there was such a sentence in the taboo catalog, Lyos and the others would not have made this trap for Tizzie and Ronier to jump into.
That said, none of this is impossible. Even with the authority of the Church, there is no guarantee that all human beings have only good hearts. Because...... Because......
Human beings are inherently both good and evil.
The taboo catalogue is only part of the evil that suppresses humanity. Therefore, Leyos and Wembel took advantage of the law, no, in a sense, they used the law to defile the sinless girl. But Ugeo doesn't get in the way of those rights. At this moment, the law allowed Leos to do it, but it forbade Eugeo's actions.
The superior nobles, as if they had forgotten the existence of Yugeo, scanned the girls' bodies with their glowing eyes, and sat up at the same time. Taking off his robe, he finally made a decisive move and pounced directly on the two of them.
The moment they sensed the man's approach, Tizzie and Ronier felt several times the same fear and disgust as before, and their expressions distorted. As if begging the other party not to die like this, they shook their heads sharply from side to side, but Leios and the others approached them slowly, slowly, as if they were enjoying it all.
Finally, Ronier made a faint sound.
"No, don't...... No...... Don't............! The shouts of her best friend probably made Tijie reach her limit. Large tears overflowed at the same time as the scream.
"Don't ...... Help...... Help us, Yogeo senpai! Gioreo-senpai - "The law that inflicted such a cruel punishment on Tizzie and Ronier, who had the courage to act for the sake of their friend Frenica." The law that has made a plan, set a trap for the girls, and made it impossible for them to do anything about their purity and withering.
If it is said that the observance of such laws is called "goodness"-
"I'm ......" Yugeo struggled to prop up his head-to-toe body as if it had been filled with lead, and the hilt of the Green Rose Sword he held tightly in his left hand was handed towards his right hand. The pain in his right eye somehow turned into a burning clot, and his vision grew red, but Yugeo ignored it and gripped the hilt of his sword.
The moment he pulled out his sword with a sharp steel blade and faced them at Lyos, Yugeo would probably lose everything he had gained in this academy. Whether it is the seat of the fifth place of the senior swordsman, or the student status, and the goal of becoming the academy's representative swordsman to participate in the sword martial arts competition.
However, if we ignore Leios' actions now, we will definitely lose something more important. The dignity of the swordsman...... No, it's your own heart. When he was playing in the forest the day before yesterday, Yi Yan said something like this. Even if it is forbidden by law, there are things that have to be done. That's something more important than the law, the taboo, the Congregational church.
Now, Ugeo finally understood. Why did Alice set foot on the land of the Dark Realm eight years ago? At that time, Alice undoubtedly intended to help the Dark Knight who was impaled through the chest by the Knight of Integration and was on the verge of death. Those were for the extremely important things in her heart.
And now, it's Yogeo's turn. It is impossible to say in words what this important thing is, but it may be "evil" for many of the inhabitants of the human world.
"Even so...... I want it too! With a silent cry, Yugeo prepared to pull the Rose Sword from its sheath.
But.
With a click, the sword and scabbard, and wrist seemed to be frozen, and the movement of the right hand suddenly stopped. At the same time, a sharp pain pierced from the right eye to the center of the head. Sparks emanated from the red-dyed vision, and consciousness faded away.
………… This one...... What exactly.
………… No, this and ...... At that time, it was exactly the same. Eight years ago, in the square in front of the church in Loulid Village, it was exactly the same when she was preparing to help Alice, who had been taken away by the Knight of Integration. Maintaining a state where the sword was only a few centimeters drawn, Yugeo was unable to move. The voice can't be said either. It was as if his feet had grown roots and dug deep into the ground, completely immobile.
Reios and Wembell sensed something unusual, turned their heads, and sneered at the sight of the ugly appearance of Eugeo holding his sword fixed there. Then he slowly turned around, as if he was deliberately letting Yugeo see him, and kept his waist closer to Tijie, who was crying.
In front of them, Eugeo saw such a wonderful symbol. In the field of vision of the right eye, which is dyed light red. A ring of several sacred words glowing with blood-red light appeared, and it continued to rotate to the right. It is written as "SYSTEM ALERT:CODE871", and although the text can be read, it is not clear what it means.
However, Yugeo had a hunch. It's some kind of 'seal'. The seal placed deep in his right eye, at that time eight years ago, also hindered Eugeo's actions as it does now, forcing him to obey the law. Because of this, Yugeo could only watch Alice being taken away.
"Uh......h Mutter...... Wow......! Desperately pulling back the fading consciousness, Eugeo stared at the crimson seal. On the other side of the spectrum, Leios and Wimbel seemed to penetrate the girls' bodies.
Unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable. The hatred for the two turned into strength, and the right arm moved. The blade was gradually pulled out of its scabbard. At the same time, the sacred words in the field of vision gradually became larger, and the speed of the whirlwind also increased.
"No, no, no————! Seniors————!! Tizzie cried out,
"Uh......h Oh oh oh ah ————!! Yugeo also shouted, and at that moment.
The right eye burst out with a silver glow, snap! With this feeling, the eyeballs burst out from the inside. Half of his vision was missing, but Yugeo ignored it and jerked off the scabbard of the Rose Sword. Before it was fully drawn, the blade emitted a cyan glow.
The Mystery of Ayn Grant's Stream, "Horizontal." Reios didn't know if he saw the thunderbolt-like blow in his peripheral vision, and lowered his body to dodge at the last moment. The fluttering blonde hair was swept by the blade and scattered.
However, some of the Wimbles inside were too late to notice Eugeo's actions. He stopped what was about to penetrate Ronier, and looked unhurriedly to the left, his eyes widening.
"Babble............" Wembel let out a brief mournful roar, and the elbow joint of his left arm that he subconsciously raised was directly hit by the sword of the green rose. I have a texture that cannot be called a texture. The severed arm, almost halfway there, spun in the air a few times before landing on the lavish carpet.
For a while, all the people were unable to move and could not make sounds. Eugeo, who was swinging his sword straight, felt only the residual pain in his right eye, which was no longer there.
After that—
With such a pop, a large amount of blood spurted out from the cut of Wembel's left arm, which was held high. Most of the blood fell onto the shiny sheets, staining them red, and a few poured into Yugeo's body, leaving several black spots on the blue uniform.
"Bah...... Ahhhh......h Ahhhh——!?h Then, a piercing scream erupted from deep in Wembell's throat. He stared at the blood that was constantly flowing from his arm with his eyes and mouth wide open.
"Hand ...... Arm...... Oh my arm, ......! Blood...... Shed so much blood......!! Mandate of Heaven...... The Mandate of Heaven is constantly decreasing!! At this moment, he finally grasped the cross-section of his right hand, but he still couldn't stop the blood from flowing out. Looking at Wembel, whose red liquid was still dripping onto the sheets, he came to Leios on the left.
"Rai, Your Highness Leos! Hallowed Magic! No, it's too late for the general divine arts...... Please give me the Mandate of Heaven ......!! To Wembell reaching out to hold his blood-stained right hand, Leios dodged and jumped under the bed. As if they hadn't understood what was happening, Tizzie and Ronier lay on their backs on their backs as if they hadn't understood what was happening.
"Your Highness Leios, give me the Mandate of Heaven!" To Wember, who kept shouting, the stunned Leios glanced at the roommate with indifferent eyes and said, "...... Don't bark, Wimbell. Losing an arm or something won't be exhausted...... I read it in a certain book. Quickly tie it with that silk to stop the bleeding. ”
"No, it won't......"
"More than that—look, Wimbell." Looking away from Wember, who had hastily begun to bandage his wounds with two ropes tied to Ronier's legs and feet, Reios looked down at Eugeo, who had squatted down after swinging his sword. After licking the tip of your tongue a few times, you grin to the side.
"Cutting off your arm is the sword of this mountain villager. It's amazing...... Do this kind of thing...... It's the first time I've seen someone who has violated such a taboo. I was just expecting you to do something out of the way...... I didn't expect you to actually violate the taboo directory!! It's really amazing!! ”
Dressed in a robe that was still open at the front, Lyos turned and walked to the wall across the bed. He took down the great sword that had been hung there, which was stored in the sheath of the red leather.
"The object of the aristocratic power of adjudication is, in principle, limited to the lower nobles and the inhabitants of private domains...... Unless the other party is a great sinner who has violated the taboo! Leos made a more excited voice than he had violated Tije, and drew his sword from its sheath. The knife, which glowed like a silver mirror, was held high by the right hand.
Outside the window, there was an even more violent thunderclap. The purple light reflected off the blade and entered Yugeo's left eye. Lyos Antinos, apparently trying to use that sword to sanction Eugeo...... That is, to kill. However, Yugeo could not move. Violating the taboo catalogue, losing his right eye due to the Mystery Seal, and slashing at Wimbel with a sword had a huge impact on Yugeo, leaving him motionless while holding his sword.
"Goo, goo, goo...... What a pity, His Highness the Swordsman Yugiosius. I wanted to enjoy the thrill of fighting your sword at next month's test match. I didn't expect to say goodbye to you in such a way. There was a frenzied mixture of joy in his voice, and Reios approached Eugeo step by step.
Yugeo looked at the raised sword with his blurred left eye.
If you don't move, you'll undoubtedly be killed here, and although I thought of this, I heard again, "Isn't this right?" Becoming an integration knight, the dream of meeting Alice is no longer possible. Aijian sucked the blood of humans, and Yugeo became a great sinner. But at least in the end, it helped Ronier and Tijie. Leios and Wembel won't be violating them again. In this way, this can be regarded as a heinous crime, a ray of redemption.
"Goo, goo...... It's the first time I've used a real sword to cut off someone's head. Even my father and uncle never did. That way I'm going to be stronger...... Even the heirs of the Libanting family will surpass it, definitely. ”
Reyos' sword and face were once again enveloped in white light, followed by a roar of thunder. Sitting on the ground and holding his left arm, Wimbel's eyes widened at this moment as if he had forgotten the pain of the wound, and Tijie, who was still tied to the bed, seemed to struggle to say something.
Yugeo gave a faint smile back to this junior practitioner who had only been with him for a month, but had been working hard as a close attendant, and then lowered his head, "Yugeo Swordsman, no, the great sinner Yugeo!" Leos Antinos, the son of the third knight, executed you according to the power of the nobility!! Give all your destiny to the gods...... to offset your sins!! ”
Leos Antinos let out a loud shout, followed by the humming of his sword————
Ding——! There was a fierce clash. After waiting for so long, I didn't see the blade fall on my neck. Yugeo slowly looked up, and then, what he saw was-
Leios's sword, which fell halfway down, was ...... by another sword below it The long sword with a pitch-black blade is taken. The clothes wrapped around the arms that were stretched out behind the hilt were also pitch-black. The intruder, the rain-soaked hair was also - black.
"Easy ...... ...... Yan, who was supposed to go to the junior trainer's dormitory to find their partner, nodded slightly, his lips moving slightly and whispering "I'm sorry." He quickly turned his gaze back to the front and said solemnly, "Take your sword back, Leos." I won't allow you to hurt Yugeo. ”
Hearing this, in an instant, Leios grinned viciously, but quickly regained his smile and replied, "You have finally appeared, Yi Yan Cultivator Swordsman." But...... You're a little late! That mountain village man is no longer a student of this school, and he is not a subject of the empire anymore. It is a great sinner who violates the taboo catalog! So—I, the eldest son of the third-class lord and also the superior swordsman of the chairmanship, Leeus Antinos, have the power to adjudicate this evil! You step back and watch from the side...... Look at this sinner's head like the flower from before, withering!! ”
In response to Lyos's lengthy words, Yi Yan responded with shorter and several times the weight. "Taboo or something, aristocratic power or something, I don't care so much!"
Ignoring the droplets of water dripping from the ends of his hair, Yi Yan glared at Leos with a glowing gaze, "Yugeo is my best friend. And you're scumbags who aren't even as good as the goblins of the Dark Realm. ”
Hearing this, Leios first showed a look of astonishment, then turned to hatred, and finally turned into a cruel smile, "I actually said this." - Really, it surprises me! The villagers in the mountains and villages on the border actually committed the crime of great rebellion together! That way, I can dispose of you both together. It's a great day...... This must also be the guidance of the god Stysia!! ”
Draw back the staggered swords and assume the upper pose again. Only this time he held the long hilt of the sword with both hands. Throwing the gorgeous robe back, facing Yi Yan sideways, he lowered his waist, and the blade of the knife emitted a black and red color. This is the secret of the high-level Norgia Stream, the mystery of the Heavenly Mountains, and the Liebo.
Seeing this posture, Yugeo subconsciously stood up.
Two and a half months ago, Yi Yan used the Vertical Square combo technique of the former chairman of the swordsman Uro Libanting to crack the opponent's Tianshan Liebo with his four-in-a-row attack technique, Vertical Square.
