......

"I wish it was a dream!" Biting her lip fiercely, Vena couldn't believe that the hateful enemy was still alive! Apparently covered in blood before the battle with her, and then suffered two more Thunder Spears...... If he were still human, then he would never have survived!

Even if it is because of his strong willpower, even the strongest will cannot ignore the physical damage.

Humans are the only species that survive on the physical body. If, just say, a human being is able to separate his consciousness from his physical body, then I am afraid he can no longer be called a human being.

There is no doubt that this kind of thing has entered the "realm of the true God."

"What a nightmare!Ah, if it's a dream, wake up quickly!"

As a devout follower of the true God, Vina would never believe that anyone could blaspheme the authority of the True God in this way, she would rather believe that everything in front of her was just a nightmare!

Irritability, anger, and fear, these negative emotions exacerbated the pain in her body, making it impossible for her to keep her reason in mind.

So, she completely forgot that the person she loved the most also fits the description above.

"Well, it can't be a dream, if that's the case, it hurts so much just now, I should wake up?"

Lance is indeed dead. And the boy who had inherited the magic of two completely different natures in Lance's body was muttering because of Vina's words. Just now, he almost forgot that there was someone in his arms.

Yes, Vena also ignores Troy, and the boy's situation should be amazing and asks "how the hell survived", and so on.

......

The Thunder Emperor's spear that pierced through the barrier slammed into the ground, causing a spreading crack in the not-so-flat ground to sink downward, causing the surrounding wind to cease and raise a cloud of dust and obscure vision.

"Hahahaha!"

At this moment, Alphonse's laughter could be heard again in the smoke, and the manic laughter was gradually becoming hoarse and silent.

Dead people never laugh, so he is still alive.

"Bang. ”

There was a dull sound in the center of the sunken ground, and in an instant, all the dust floating around it disappeared.

"Haha...... I see, I'm not alive because I'm crazy enough to forget that I'm almost dead, but because 'this thing' is so funny. ”

Spat out words in a hoarse voice that would have led one to mistake him for a "true lunatic", Alphonse looked with contempt. The man who reappeared in Vina's field of vision was no longer covered in blood, but was wrapped in black particles that made people intuitively feel "fear", as if he was wearing a black power suit, only his cheeks were exposed.

Dark magical elements.

Blinking his eyelids, Alphonse's originally injured eye, surrounded by pitch-black elements, seemed to be healed intact, and the blood marks on his face also disappeared, as if he had never been injured before, which was simply incredible.

"Oh, the lovely little girl is not dead, how can I express my joy to you?"

"Whew!"

Red and black weave through the air, and after a brief collision, they both retreat.

"Oh, there's also a 'knight-sama' who guards the 'princess'?" Alphonse, who rushed to Vena at a speed that completely violated the laws of physics, uttered a playful remark, but it was difficult to hide his surprise that his attack was easily resisted, "However, this 'knight-sama' looks too shabby, right? At least he should be like my unsuccessful brother, wearing decent armor~"

The princess naturally refers to Vina, but the knight in the mouth of the middle-aged man refers to the boy who has just blocked his attack, Troy.

"You...... Don't get closer! you give the impression of ...... It's annoying!" The approaching man instinctively caused the boy to feel disgust for no apparent reason, and Troy, who never hid his emotions, frowned for the first time in his life. He subconsciously hugged the woman in his arms tightly, but at the same time took two steps back.

The pitch-black element that surrounded Alphonse also gave him a feeling he had never felt before: fear.

"Haha...... Hmm, I love that description, haha!"

The laughter stopped abruptly, and the moment the voice stopped was the moment when the man made a move! The pitch-black element, which was wrapped around the originally broken left arm, was even more terrifying than the black magic used by the caster who had fought with Moore before, and the extended black had already turned into the form of a long sword at the same time as the arm was swung.

"Bang!"

The black sword shadow was extremely fast, but the red blade was faster than it! It was not that the intersection of the two entities did not emit a piercing resonance of gold and iron, but that the impact and muffled sound that only occurred when different magical elements were added together.

After the sound, Troy, who was holding Vena in his arms, stood unsteadily, and took two steps back.

"Oh-" Over there, Alphonse, whose attack was blocked again, looked frozen, and his crazy look appeared on the corners of his eyes again for the first time, "You made me interested, that red thing is not a fire element, so what should it be......?"

Alphonse had asked the same question as Vina, who had never seen anything as strange as a tentacle.

"I don't know!

The four tentacles around him merged into a sharp blade, and resisted the attack just now, but even before, the movements of these things did not come from the boy's own will.

Honestly answering Alphonse's question, Troy was just as confused as the others about the tentacles, knowing only that it felt the same as "magic" to him.

Seeing the "dark man" approaching, Troy, who was just an ordinary boy, felt even more fearful in his heart, and hurriedly took two steps back.

"Don't retreat, don't be afraid of him. Vena encouraged the boy and encouraged herself at the same time, and she could understand why Troy would retreat, because even she was the same at the moment. The anger in her heart was gradually being eaten away by fear, and the oppression of the dark element that enveloped Alphonse seemed to her more than a thousand troops.
