At the moment when a sense of powerlessness spread throughout her body, Kate finally realized, and finally admitted, that she was too arrogant before. She thought that her strength was very strong, and she was the best among the children of her peers, so she could be fearless. But now she has to pay an incalculable price for such an act: her own death, Lisa's death.

There are no words to scold such a price, because such a price is death. When it's dead, there's nothing, and no amount of remarks is a meaningless move.

The Hellhound's roaring three-headed dog had descended into the air, just a split second before it could devour Kate and Lisa.

"Pong~"

Thinking she was going to die, Kate stopped clutching the sword in her hand and let it fall to the ground. At that moment she felt so quiet around her, so quiet that only the sound of her heart beating. And the only sound of the heartbeat is also disappearing little by little, is this the real death?

"Yike...... Ah......!!!h

However, what awaited her was not the pain of being consumed by the flames, but a roar that broke through the sky. She didn't feel pain! She knew there was no pain. But this can't be! It is impossible for such a blazing hellhound to let himself not have a trace of pain! Even if he is killed in an instant, it is impossible. Then the only possibility is that the Flame Cerberus didn't attack!

"Listen! The people who will really lose are the ones who have given up their struggles, and the other are the same people who have given up their struggles! Giving up is the real losing! Now, take your sword and kill him with me!"

Then she heard a burst of words that she would never forget for the rest of her life. Giving up is the real loss! Giving up the long sword in my hand just now is giving up the struggle, that is, admitting that I have lost. But...... Who shouted such sonorous words?!

Open your eyes!

Stunned! stunned! stunned!

Whether it's Kate or Lisa, their mouths are open in an "O" shape. They didn't know how to describe what they were seeing, they only knew that it was an exaggerated long sword, the size of two people's bodies! And the big sword was several meters long!

I'm afraid that only the giants of the legendary beast clan living in the Western Continent can be mentioned.

But the next moment...... Stunned! stunned! Stunned! Kate and Lisa were stunned once again and couldn't believe their eyes: they saw the civilian, the arrogant civilian who threatened them.

The body is so small, but it is powerful to hold up that exaggerated sword!

Who the hell is he? No, it should be, is he a human being? How could he afford to lift such a great sword, and where is he sacred? And, most crucially, is he saving himself?

That's right! He's saving himself! He's holding the big sword to resist the roar of the Hell, and the three-headed dog of hell with flames all over his body can't rush out of his mouth with his big sword. But his appearance showed that he was in pain, and he must not be able to bear the scorching heat of the roar of the hell.

Kate and Lisa's focus is all on the arrogant civilian who threatens them as they fend off the roar of the deadly Hell. This civilian, naturally, is Aggie.

Speaking of which, Edge's arrival to save them was completely unexpected by Giroud.

There's nothing wrong with Edge's being a kind person, Giroud admits and is convinced. But he is not the embodiment of justice, he is not a preacher who walks the world to practice the light, so he will not be absolutely good. Judging by the days spent with him, Giroud knows that his kindness is conditional.

He believes that there can be no gratuitous harvest without paying the price. Therefore, the goodness he exercised in the past was basically based on mutual benefit. His kindness can be said to be a win-win "deal" in a certain sense. Kindness that can be exercised at any time, but kindness that pays a terrible price must have a value worth exercising.

The question is, what is the value to him of saving Kate and Lisa? and even if he does, he has to face the clown killer of Divine Grace, which means that he gambles with his life.

That's where Giroud wonders.

It had already found Kate's bedchamber and returned to the clock tower to find Edge with the plan it had previously arranged. But when it returned to the Clock Tower, it realized that something had happened, so it immediately contacted Aegie through its soul powers, and only then did it know what had happened. At that time, it thought that it was just that, anyway, everything was up to Edge's arrangement.

But it didn't expect, and neither did Edge, as they flew away from Casanster City and crossed the Beater River to return to the Misty Forest, they saw a fierce battle taking place in a clearing along the Beater River. Curious, Edges asked Giroud to take a closer look at what was going on.

This one is hard to see, and Edge recognizes it as Kate and Lisa. And Kate and Lisa are in danger of dying. For this kind of thing, it would have been a good thing for him, and if Kate and Lisa died, then the matter of him angering Kate and Lisa would have been solved. But in just one second, he made the decision to save Kate and Lisa.

This guy is really decisive. Giroud can only complain about his behavior. The reasons for his decision are believed to be explained by Giroud when the matter is over. I just hope he never says blood-spurting reasons like 'Kate and Lisa are beautiful, and I want to have a hero to save the beauty'.

But there's a catch, Edge's decision has to come with another threat in addition to his life.

Red Lotus's strength is very strong, and the Hell's Roar that it casts is not something that the current Sky Breaking Greatsword can easily resist. The only way to keep Kate and Lisa safe is to completely fend off the three-headed dog of hell that swoops down, and only by doubling the size of the Sky Breaker.

Giroud can briefly increase his mana consumption, making the Skybreaker form double its normal form, but instead, Aegie needs to suffer the pain of a soul torment.

Aegie was willing to do so. Once again, Giroud wondered. But since Edge spoke, it did so. Therefore, the Sky Breaking Sword held up by Edge at this time was actually twice the size of the previous Sky Breaking Sword, and the painful expression he showed was not because of the scorching heat of the Hell's roar, but because his soul was tortured.

At this moment, he was desperately using the Sky Breaking Greatsword to resist Red Lotus's Infernal Roar, but it was not enough, he could not break the flamed three-headed hellhound, he had to dodge before the limit of the pain that his soul could bear. The situation was critical, and he looked at Kate and Lisa on the ground to see if they had dodged.

But when he saw it, he was directly angry, only to see Kate and Lisa staring blankly at him and not dodging.

"You two idiot women! run away from that place, don't you want to die?!" He was so angry that he risked his life to save Kate and Lisa, but they were stupid at such a critical moment, did they really want to be killed by the three-headed dogs of hell?

Of course, Kate and Lisa's "idiotic behavior" is completely understandable. After all, the person who came to save them was Aegie, who had threatened them before, and they hated them terribly. What's more, they didn't expect that Edge would have that kind of strength when they were killed.

But no matter how idiotic they are, they won't be so stupid that they won't be so stupid that they won't be able to come back to their senses when they are scolded by Aggie in the sky. Perhaps due to the desire to survive, they didn't care, let alone angry, in the face of Age's rude and rude behavior of scolding them as a princess and a duke's eldest lady as idiots, but as if they accepted Edge's words, they admitted that they were really idiots. Then they fled in a panic, hiding in a place unaffected by the roar of the Hell.

Seeing them leave, Edge quickly turned around and dodged the roar of the Hell, falling from mid-air to where they had taken refuge. At this time, the Sky Breaking Greatsword doubled in size and returned to its normal state. Age's soul torment is liberated and no longer so painful. But the next thing he had to face was Red Lotus, and this pressure was no less than the torture of his soul.

Seeing Ageie falling in front of him, and the big sword in Edge's hand becoming a little smaller, Kate and Lisa realized that the big sword in Edge's hand was probably a rare parasitic weapon. That's why his greatsword can become so big. If it weren't for a parasitic weapon, the person who used it wouldn't have the innate advantage of the host, and it would be impossible for Aji to be able to hold up such a huge sword just now.

However, although the Sky Breaking Sword in Aiji's hand was now twice as small, it was still the size of a human being. Such a big sword, I'm afraid it's not something that ordinary people can lift.
