With a violent wail, the black animal skin turned to ashes and disappeared, which also heralded the destruction of the reborn demonic beast, the Calydonian boar. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Then, the life-like emerald color is re-rendered on the beautiful girl, so that the delicate face of the girl is restored to the color of humanity.

The emerald-haired girl raised her head and stared blankly at the man in front of her who had ripped off her animal skin, revealing an expression that seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare, and muttered, "What are you...... Achilles? ”

Then, as if realizing something, Atalanta smiled helplessly: "That's it...... I seem to be ...... again I have been redeemed by you. ”

"Well, but you also managed to save me, big sister." Achilles suddenly laughed heartily, "I'm sorry, I'm a little late, I'm sorry for you here." ”

Atalanta looked at the man and suddenly said, "Why do you want to do this when the curse of you and me has been lifted......"

- Achilles, the man, is still leaning on the girl named Atalanta in a hugging gesture, a position that even Atalanta finds a little awkward.

However, although he wanted to pull the man away, it may be because he had just regained his senses, which made it a little difficult for him to control his body for a while.

And......

This body, which had just been ravaged by the monsters, was already on the verge of collapse.

"Because I'm about to disappear here, if I don't hurry up...... It's a joke to forget that feeling next time, isn't it? ”

The smile on Achilles' face didn't change at all, except that his body began to turn into particles of light from his fingertips and toes.

The spirit core has been shattered in the battle just now, and Achilles has been able to support it until now, except for the ability called "Battle Continuation", there is only the thought of Atalanta.

“…… Really, you are still the same as you were then...... It hasn't changed at all. Atalanta smiled reassuringly as she looked at herself, who had also begun to disappear.

"But...... That's good enough to wake you up...... It's kind of for me in this world where I can't fulfill my dreams...... One last bit of consolation. ”

Atalanta looked at the still dim world outside, her body gradually became weak, if it weren't for Achilles holding her immobile body by her side, she would definitely fall to the ground like this.

"I can't continue to fight for the children...... Obviously, those children are still trying to fight against strong enemies, but I am one step ahead...... Hehe, I feel a little unwilling. ”

Atalanta laughed helplessly, looked at Achilles and said.

Her dream has always been to enable all the children of the world to be able to get the happiness they deserve, and it is precisely because of this wish that she will answer the call to come to this world, the reason is to protect those girls who should not be fighting.

I think this comes from the desire not to let the children have the same experience as themselves, but because of this, this is an absolutely impossible dream to come true.

Moreover, even if it is just to protect those children, I am afraid that Atalanta will not be able to do it, so it is inevitable that there will be regrets.

"There's no way around it." Looking at the golden particles of light that began to get denser and denser around him, Achilles scratched his head and said, "Because you and I are already close to the limit." ”

Achilles looked at the somewhat lost girl and continued: "But don't worry, big sister, although those children are not yet mature, but even I can feel them in that state, they also have potential that cannot be underestimated. ”

Atalanta recalled, then smiled: "Well, on this point, I also admit that if it were them, no matter how desperate the situation, they would definitely turn defeat into victory." ”

"Yes, tempering hope in despair and shining miracles in adversity are the possibilities they contain." Achilles said, "So sometimes you don't need to care too much, after all~ Fate is still in the hands of the current people, isn't it?" ”

".................." Atalanta thought for a while, revealing a calm smile, "Ah, you're right, Achilles, fate is in the hands of those children who live in the present......"

"And, eldest sister, if you want to say anything, you haven't done anything, it's your own." Achilles suddenly said, "Because you are by no means unable to do anything, and you will not do a good job of stopping me!" ”

"Aha, that's right, I didn't expect you guys to say such beautiful [Golden] words after they were normal! That's right! Miss Atalanta, you can't ignore the credit for being able to stop this Achilles. ”

"Moreover, Mr. Yue Chen's side really doesn't need to worry, the miracle they can burst out at a critical moment is exactly why I choose to believe in Master! After all, they are the only ones who can truly create their own miracles! ”

At this moment, a hearty male voice no less than Achilles sounded from behind the two of them, and Sakata Kintoki, who was as dazzling as gold, laughed loudly.

"But you're not bad! Miss Atalanta, you can still have the courage to stand up in the face of a strong enemy, and this is also the precious golden soul [Golden.Soul]! ”

“――――――――――”

Suddenly, Atalanta felt a little embarrassed on her side - although she herself didn't think much of the affairs of men and women, she also felt like she was being watched.

However, Sakata didn't seem to feel the awkward atmosphere that kept coming from the scene, and still smiled as if no one was around.

"Sakata Kintoki? He's also a famous warrior in the East, if it weren't for the fact that this time was really unlucky, if it were normal, I would definitely have a good fight with you. When Achilles looked at Sakata Kim, there seemed to be a shadow in his hearty smile.

- Although he has returned to normal, the memory of Sakata Kintoki's play with him just now is still there, so Achilles also has a bit of a grudge against this golden man.

"Oh! So wait for the next time, if Uncle Ben can change to Berserker, you and I will play a good game again! Sakata Jintoki hammered his fists hard in front of his chest to produce dazzling thunder, and the momentum of not refusing to resist made Achilles feel very fond of it.

"Hahahaha! Yes, Sakata Kintoki, I'm a little fond of you now! Achilles burst out laughing.

At this moment, Sakata Kantoki suddenly felt something fly towards his face.

“Golden！？” In an instant, Sakata Kantoki instinctively dodged the blow, but instead of dodging, he caught the sudden thing with his hand after dodging his head.

-- It was a large shield with intricate decorative patterns carved on the entire surface of the shield. It's heavy, but what makes people feel more than that is this luxurious object.

But what surprised Sakata Kintoki even more was-

"Hey, what's going on with this shield? Isn't this a treasure? ”

"Ah, yes, I gave it to you, I don't really need it right now, do I?" Achilles waved his hand impatiently.

For a moment, even Sakata Kintoki, a guy who basically didn't care about anything, looked at Achilles in shock.

Achilles shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't care at all and said, "The war over there should be no time now, and it's only a matter of time before the 666 beast recovers." ”

"But before that there is one more Gurgon to block, then the only question is how to resist her petrified EYE, in that case, then this shield is necessary for that Master."

Sakata Jinshi stroked his chin and looked at the shield, revealing a smile: "Well, really, if it was golden, maybe I would have accepted it with joy." ”

"I'm really sorry for you if it's not golden!" Achilleston complained that as long as Sakata Jinshi was there, what should have been a very sad parting plot suddenly became joyful somehow.

After the farce, the atmosphere of the scene gradually calmed down, and the three heroes looked at each other in silence, and then looked at the still devastated city.

Achilles looked at the dim world and said, "Anyway, I have absolutely no way to shirk the responsibility for this incident - it will be polluted or something, this is really not something that a hero should have." ”

For him, this can also be said to be his biggest regret after being summoned to this world.

Instead of fighting as a hero to save humanity, he became a polluted anti-hero to fight against humanity.

This would be a sad fact for any hero, but Achilles shrugged his shoulders almost indifferently and laughed at it.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Achilles is enough to be the top three heroes in Greek mythology - he will not ignore his own mistakes, but he can easily let go of his regrets, which is something that only a person who can be called a "hero" can do.

"Then there's nothing for us to do here." Achilles looked at Sakata and said, "I want to help you too, but that's all I can do." ”

Sakata Jintoki waved his hand and grinned and said: "Haha, it's okay, your share, just leave it to me to convey it, if you want to make amends, go and help that master next time, I believe, if he is here, he will definitely say the same." ”

The halo around the two began to fade, which also indicated that their mission in this world was about to come to an end.

"Then, I'm looking forward to being able to fight alongside you again in the future, Sakata Kintoki." Atalanta nodded to Sakata Kintoki, expressing her heartfelt gratitude.

"It's an honor to be able to play alongside you."

Atalanta's body finally couldn't support the collapse of the magic power, and completely turned into a beautiful point of light and disappeared beside Achilles, and the girl named Atalanta, the mission in this world was completely gone.

Even if you have regrets, you can let go of it all and trust others to fulfill your long-cherished wishes, which is the only thing that Atalanta can do.

Bless and pray for Yue Chen and the others, may the light of Artemis, the goddess of the moon, shine on them forever, this is the last thing she can do for people.

Looking at Atalanta, who finally disappeared, Achilles showed a smile, looked at Sakata Jinshi and said: "Okay, since the eldest sister has already taken the first step, then it's time for me to leave, but before that, I'll remind you again, Sakata Jintoki, please be sure to tell that Master." ”

"Huh? Is there any important information? Sakata asked.

Achilles looked at Sakata Gold and said, "Remember, his last enemy is definitely not just the 666 Beast, but a more intractable existence than it." ”

"A trickier existence?" Sakata Jintoki frowned, "Do you mean that it's not just the 666 Beast that is leading all this?" ”

"No, the mastermind this time can be said to be the beast of 666, but sometimes you need to think about it, why did the beast of 666 come here? Why is it called to a world that has nothing to do with ours? ”

Sakata Jinshi frowned and thought about this sentence, if he said this, there was indeed a big problem, if the beast of 666 was summoned to this world, who would calculate it...... That's a little too scary.

"Do you know who that guy is?" Sakata Kantoki looked at the man and asked.

The latter smiled and shook his head: "It's a pity that guy has never seen the beginning and the end of the dragon, even if I really want to see it, I don't have any chance." ”

His body began to crumble, and Achilles also felt that his body had become a little transparent, he looked at Sakata Jinshi and said, "Finally, remember to greet that Master on my behalf, I seem to have caused him a lot of trouble, pick up the shield in your hand, and go to give Yue Chen the last help." ”

"Hehe, I don't need you to say that I know, you can just go with peace of mind." Sakata Kintoki laughed and said, "Let's have a good fight next time, the battle between you and me is not over yet!" ”

"Let's talk about it at that time, you can also prepare me for the strongest state, and then wait to die!" Achilles disappeared in Sakata Kintoki's eyes in an instant, and this man's mission ended here.

Even as an enemy, Achilles fulfilled his duty as a hero in the end.

Sakata Jinshi put on the big shield in his hand, looked at the magic power that had not yet dissipated after the two disappeared, and said calmly: "Ah, next time, let's give each other the strongest blow!" ”

Then, Sakata Kintoki's body turned into golden thunder and rushed towards the deteriorating battle situation on the beach at high speed!
