"Why?"

Hephaestus stood beside Hestia and looked at Lori in bewilderment.

"Obviously you have such a big advantage, why don't you just fight the general against the general to win, and instead let that little rabbit challenge a Lv.5 enemy?"

"Well...... In fact, this is also what the child himself wants. ”

"Huh?"

Hestia remembered what it had been like before the war began.

At that time, the original plan was to kill Jacintos directly and end the battle cleanly, as Hephaestus said.

However, under this arrangement, the other member of the team, Bell, had no tasks to do.

Although the cute rabbit didn't say anything, he said congratulations in advance with a warm smile that could make others unconsciously close. But Hestia also saw that Bell also wanted to do what he could for the family.

Bunnies are cute, but don't want to be cared for all the time.

He also has a dream of becoming a hero.

"I say, why don't you hand over the fight with Jacintos to Bell?"

In this way, Hestia spoke the decision in front of the children.

"I have no opinion."

Yuriko replied.

"Huh? But...... I—Can I do it? ”

Although Bell wanted to contribute to his family, he didn't think he could defeat the other party's general.

Then Yui's child jumped on the table in dissatisfaction and stood in front of Bell with his waist crossed.

"You're a disciple I taught! How can you not beat that nasty ghost? ”

"Bunny, come on! Misaka Misaka thinks it's fun, so he tries to encourage the rabbit to fight! ”

……

In the end, Bell was arranged to be the last person to deliver the fatal blow to the Apollo family.

Although he is not a general, he is responsible for the task of fighting the enemy general.

"Speaking of which, you're a kid growing up very fast."

Hephaestus had a smile on her face.

"The kid in my family. The other day was also thanks to his care. ”

"Aha? Do you mean the child who courted you? ”

Hephaestus blushed and rolled her eyes at Hestia.

Looking at the battle between Belle and Jacintos shown in the mirror, Hermes walked up to Hestia and asked:

"This kid has accumulated a lot of potential points when he leveled up, right?"

Bell's grade is Lv.3 - this is the latest data.

And his opponent is Yacintos at Lv.5.

But now, the two are standing in a strong voice. Bale, though slightly down, showed no signs of defeat.

Therefore, the reasons for this phenomenon are only potential values in Hermes's view.

"Can you tell me, what is the highest [ability] of this kid at Lv.2? I would never say it. ”

Hestia, who stared intently at the mirror, said without looking back, "You won't believe it." ”

"I believe it, after all, I'm ......"

- I am the god who was entrusted by this child's grandfather, Zeus, to watch his growth.

Hermes said to himself in his heart.

Hestia gave Hermes a strange look, and finally said:

"Except for [Agile], it's all SS."

“――！！”

Hermes kept squinting and smiling. For a moment there was a freeze.

"Are you kidding?"

"You don't believe it, do you?"

Hermes smacked his lips and decided to give up on further questioning.

- Such a Bell, who has the strength to fight with Lv.5, is in [Hestia. Dependents] is so inconspicuous.

What about the rest of the children?

Hermes speculated secretly.

◇

The red flash cut through the atmosphere, and in the face of Jacintos' attack, Bell chose to fight back.

"You ...... guy"

Jacintos looked at Bell, who did not retreat under his own attack, but chose to attack head-on. For a while, I was furious.

“…… How could there be such strength! You're just a Lv.3!! ”

Bell pursed his lips tightly, recalling every detail that Yui had taught him.

The body accelerates again.

"Woo......!?"

Jacintos's God-favored beauty was distorted.

The flurry of red blades strikes. Skimming Yacintos' skin and blowing away his adventurer's jewelry, Yacintos responded by swinging his dagger at his feet with a roar.

Shock and wind pressure are generated.

A powerful blow tore the rubble along with the ground, sending smoke and dust in the air.

Seeing this, Bell hurriedly flew back, and Jacintos also jumped hard. Retreat to the rear like an arrow from a string.

"My name is Love, the darling of light. I dedicate myself to the sun! ”

Jacintos began chanting.

"My name is sin, the jealousy of the wind. This body invites a sudden wind! ”

Magic - he intended to defeat Bell directly.

Because Yuriko, who has only appeared in this way, puts too much pressure on him.

Even if he wasn't here, he still didn't dare to completely relax and concentrate on dealing with Bell.

"Unleash one of the steamers to throw-!"

Bell saw this. Immediately fold your hands in front of your chest.

"Flame Volt !!!!"

- That's the instantaneous rush magic that Bell can use right now.

The flames that exploded on Jacintos erupted.

Jacintos, who didn't expect Bell to have instantaneous magic, was ready for his own magic at a critical moment, so he could only grit his teeth and resist Bell's attack.

Then, relying on a spirit of steel, he completed his chant:

"- Come on, wind of the West!!"

After chanting, Jacintos turned his upper body at an angle.

Lower your center of gravity and raise your right arm high while lowering your left arm.

-- Discus throwing pose.

With his right arm held high, a huge disc of light appeared in the palm of his hand.

The disc is thrown from the right hand that is swung down at high speed, and it spun forward as it spins at high speed.

Bell was quicker on his feet, and dodged the disc's attack with a strange step.

"It's useless!"

Jacintos roared. The Disc of Light spun around and flew into the air, then slashed through a large arc and rushed towards Bell again.

This time, in the face of the flying disc, Bell chose to attack.

Holding the dagger in his backhand and aiming it at the trajectory of the disc, Bell swung his arm.

"Chihua-!!!"

Jacintos let out a loud cry the moment the disc and Bell made contact.

"Boom-!!!!"

The wave of air from the exploding disc swept away the boy's body.

This scene. Through the [Mirror], it spread throughout Olali.

All those who were supporting the rabbit stopped what they were doing.

The smoky body rolled in the air and fell backwards, blood spilling on the ground.

"Final Blow" - !!!

Jacintos smirked, kicked his feet on the ground, and leaped into the sky.

The sunlight reflected on the sword's body shook Bell's eyes slightly.

The five senses seem to be infinitely extended.

In Eulari, Aegina, Ciel, Ryu, and everyone else who knew Bell had a look of despair.

A touch of silver suddenly appeared in Bell's eyes.

Yuriko Ichibashi stood at the top of the Command Tower, looking at Bell with red eyes.

The sun near noon transformed the silver-haired maid into a human form that shimmered with golden light.

The white ribbon behind it, fluttering in the wind. It's like a pair of wings.

【Wings ......】

Suddenly, Bell's eyes widened—

Jacintos' body was already closing in on Bell's side in mid-air.

The cold wind from the sword that stabbed out made Bell's skin ache.

Then, Bell, who was originally considered a harmless little white rabbit by Jacintos, suddenly turned his head to look at him.

The red eyes showed a strange smile.

As soon as the bad feeling arose, Jacintos saw Belbel suddenly open his arms.

Then, he disappeared.

【Flying Kite Month by Month】

When Bell reappeared, it was behind Jacintos.

The battle-hardened Jacintos spotted Bell's breath for the first time, turned around and threw the spare short sword without hesitation.

In mid-air. Bell, who had nothing to draw on, drew a strange trajectory of his body in the hellish eyes of Jacintos.

Dodged the short sword he thrown. At the same time, he also pulled out the afterimage and appeared in front of him.

"Poof!"

Sharp blades into the body.

Jacintos' eyes widened.

With a "poof", two people fell to the ground at the same time.

Bell endured the pain in his body and stumbled to his feet.

Jacintos, on the other hand, never got back on his feet.

◇

In the sky above Olali, a huge cheer resounded in the sky.

The ruins of the ancient city resounded with the sound of a fierce gong beating at the same time. The big bell that represents the end of the city also echoes throughout the city.

Many people in the audience shouted excitedly at the boy standing in the [mirror].

"The battle is over! Although it was thought that the winner was decided in the middle of the battle, it was surprising that the battle ended like this!! The winner of the war game is Hestia? Dependents] ――――――! ”

"""""Ohohoh!!" ””””

On the stage, Ganesa put on a smug expression while beside him. Ibuley, who was in charge of the host, leaned out excitedly and roared at the megaphone with a flushed face.

His amplified voice, like a breaking wave, then disappeared without a trace after being swallowed up by a large number of spectators and buildings.

Inside the wine hall, the gods who had bet on Hestia to win stood up with great momentum and let out a cheer of victory.

On the other side, the adventurers who bet on Apollo threw countless tickets on their heads.

In the Tower of Babel, where the gods gathered, the commotion never stopped. Some of them praised the children, some criticized, and began to summing up the war games casually.

"How...... Will you, ah......? ”

Apollo's face was bloodless, and he was clubbed in place.

"Ah! Wave! Gauze! ”

Hestia suddenly walked up to Apollo, and the bangs that were slightly lowered were enough to mistake the eyes of an evil god for a dark glow.

"I think you're ready to come to your senses, aren't you?"

Hestia's voice was as low as coming from hell, and Apollo fell to the ground in terror.

The male god trembled with fright, and tears couldn't stop crawling through his eyes and flowing down.

"Wait, wait Hestia!? I—I'm just a little bit of a ghost, because your kid is so cute, and I thought I'd tease it a little bit...... Please, please, and be merciful, O loving goddess! Haven't we already proposed to each other!? ”

- Which pot is not opened, which pot is not mentioned!

Hestia broke out completely.

"Give! I! Close! Mouth!!!! ”

"Apollo, I will confiscate all your possessions, including your stronghold, and your clan must be disbanded - and then exile you as the Lord God forever, and you will not be allowed to set ――――――――foot in Olari again!!"

"No, don't ......"

Apollo sat down on the ground, screaming feebly. (To be continued......)
