117. Matilda
Fisher and Heller, who was floating behind him, soon headed towards the stone tower in the center of the Ideal Country, where the fog was dancing in mid-air, dimly revealing the glittering golden wilderness outside.
Fisher's eyes flashed with twisted "O" symbols, and in an instant, he reached the stone tower.
He did have some foreboding in his heart, especially when he saw the elf Tsubaki guarding the stone tower, quietly watching Fisher and Helaire as they approached.
Fisher's footsteps stopped, and Tsubaki also turned his head to look at him and said,
"Mr. Fisher, my brothers and sisters are coming soon. You've entered the myth, and please help me stop them for the time being. ”
“··· Where is Karasaw? ”
Tsubaki turned his head to look at the stone tower, and a golden light flashed from time to time at the top, and then he said,
"She and Margaret are in control of the cardinal at the top of the tower, and their progress will be fast, and if the loom is successfully mastered and the death here is linked, we, the Ideal Nation, will survive from my compatriots."
Tsubaki's eyes were sincere, and his words asking for Fisher's help were sincere, which made Fisher's suspicions that he and Margaret had attacked him before.
In his eyes, Tsubaki is indeed an out-and-out good elf.
But at this moment, while Fisher nodded, he still asked one more question with his eyes in mind,
"I see, we'll help you... But before that, I had something I wanted to say to Donzawa, and I wanted to go up and see her. ”
“··· The current situation is critical, and once you go up, it may disturb her and Margaret's progress in controlling the loom, can't you wait? Now there is no way to make any mistakes. ”
"Is this Margaret's order?"
"Yes.
The feeling in Fisher's heart became more and more obvious, he raised his eyes to look at the golden light above him, then sighed and said,
"I'm sorry, it's important, I have to get up."
Hearing this, a little visible annoyance finally appeared on Tsubaki's gentle face, and he glanced at the stormy fog outside, and asked Fisher,
"Fisher, why, the more urgent it is, the more you have to do this kind of thing, the ideal country is now on the line of life and death, you are so unwilling to believe me and Margaret? Don't you want tears when you have to do this kind of wayward act when you have to burn your eyebrows like this? ”
“··· I trust you, but I don't trust Margaret. ”
"She treats Tang Ze as a daughter! They got along day and night during the four days you were away, and if she really wanted to do anything to Tang Ze, she would have done it a long time ago! ”
Well, it doesn't seem to make sense.
Seeing that Fisher was no longer speechless, Tsubaki snorted very annoyed, and then said,
"I won't let you in, you've just entered the mythical rank, you won't be my opponent, don't make meaningless attempts."
&"......”
Fisher didn't speak, just glanced at the "man" behind him who was smiling in Tsubaki's eyes, and the next second, in his extremely surprised sight, Cain's body flickered a warm light like the morning light, and the next moment, her true body wearing a crown and growing illusory wings behind her was revealed.
Although the crown on his head is not the same as the traditional angel halo in the past, Tsubaki still recognizes it at a glance, and the guy in front of him is a real angel!
How could it be, Margaret had already checked them with a loom, how did this guy get in?
Fisher twisted his neck and said bitterly to Tsubaki,
"Tsubaki, save your strength, the elves will be here soon, I just want to see Asuka Karasawa and won't interfere with their process."
"You already interfered with them when you went up, and I won't let you do that."
Fisher stopped speaking, the moment the soul power on his body lit up, the rules around him shattered little by little, and the moment he felt the dangerous and chaotic power, countless stout quaint trees with purple flowers suddenly grew around Tsubaki's body.
The arm-like tree rose sharply and collided with Fisher's power. "Boom!"
With a loud bang, the entire Ideal Kingdom began to shake slightly, and the terrifying impact blew the buildings next to it away, and even the stone tower was slightly crooked.
Tsubaki immediately looked nervously at the residents of the Ideal Country who were still asleep in the complex, and Fisher, who was in the smoke and dust in the distance, did not continue to make a move, and said to Tsubaki instead,
"Do you want to go to war before they even come? You should know that the battle of the Mythical Rank will turn everything around you into ashes, so why bother? ”
"I'm not going to let you go up."
It's just that oil and salt can't get in, Margaret seems to have drained his brain, she says whatever this guy does, and she can't communicate at all.
Fisher raised his head to look at the top of the stone tower, and always felt that the golden light was changing little by little, and then he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation coming from above.
The fluctuation was very familiar to Fisher, and at the same time, it had a strange resonance with the object that Renee had taken to put the chalice on his chest, as if it were intertwining, trying to lean over to increase its strength. That's... Confusion?
Why is there such an obvious and pure chaos blooming on it?
Fisher frowned, feeling the sheer power of chaos bloom from above the tower, and he glanced down at the object that resonated with it.
Not only can Renee's items be considered a chalice of change, but they can also greatly increase the power of chaos?
Whatever the chaos above, Fisher sane didn't think he could let Renee's stuff go any way there.
First of all, not to mention the consequences of enhancing the power of chaos, that is, if Renee's things are melted, even if he sees the Holy Grail at that time, he will no longer be able to expel death, and he will declare the game over.
So, Fisher immediately took out the item in his arms, he turned his head to look at Helaire behind him, and then handed her the item that would decide his life and death.
"Heller, the situation up there isn't right, I have to go up and take a look. This item is very important to me, and if it loses me, it will be dangerous. I'll leave it to you for the time being, and you're here to help me delay Tsubaki. ”
Hellaire took the item she handed over, her blue-gold dilated pupils glancing at the item, and then smiled at him,
"It seems that I have a lot of responsibility... Well, leave it to me. "Well, please."
Tsubaki wanted to stop again, but Fisher didn't bother to pay attention to him, and behind him, Heller, who had taken Fisher's belongings into his arms, suddenly raised his hand at this time, and interrupted it with a warm morning light before Tsubaki was about to attack Fisher, and Fisher also took advantage of this time to rush straight towards the stone tower.
"Angel!!" "Elf!!"
In the face of Tsubaki's roar, Heller also screamed and imitated Tsubaki's words, almost not blowing Tsubaki's brain out.
He couldn't handle Hellaire alone, let alone a Fisher who was determined to go up.
He turned his head angrily to look at the tower behind him, only to watch Fisher sprint all the way up from the outside of the tower.
"Buzz..."
But the moment Fisher went up, an extremely terrifying aura of death began to spread throughout the entire country.
Fisher, who flew into the air, suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and at this moment, the death expelled by Renee's power was entangled again, and his movements froze slightly, and in an instant, the palpitations that followed him enveloped him, making him breathless.
Invisible black threads spread out from the depths of the earth, like a greedy gluttonous feasting on the tribute placed in front of it.
Fisher gritted his teeth and slammed his fluid sword around the stone pillar above, then pulled hard before his body went limp, allowing himself to fly as if he had been ejected by a slingshot.
"Plop!"
As he tumbled to the ground, the closer he got to the center of the tower, the faster his heart beated.
In the whispering roar in his ears, Fisher's gaze swept around, and he only saw Margaret hanging in the air wrapped in an extremely strong chaotic force, but there was no figure of Asuka Karasawa.
"Margaret..."
Fisher clutched his heart, his eyes quickly locked on the conspicuous blood dripping from the edge of the pool and the long-handled dagger thrown aside, the crimson color of the pool spreading, and the ominous premonition in his heart was getting closer to reality.
The blonde lady's loom of fate had completely turned into a chaotic hue, and the wriggling, indescribable substance was constantly connecting with the transferee, making her human form begin to twist little by little, as if her flesh could no longer contain the horror of her inner body.
It's a good thing I didn't bring Renee's belongings with me, otherwise something might have happened.
"Fisher... I've always wondered where the smell of your natives like ours comes from... You can hear those voices too, right? ”
Margaret didn't look back, but the loom of fate wrapped around her seemed to replace some of her organs, opening her eyes that were densely packed and constantly shaking and the mouth that was linked to the abominable saliva.
Fisher ignored her, just stared straight at the blood escaping from the pool, if he didn't guess wrong, Tang Ze should be inside, he had to rescue Tang Ze first.
So, without any words or warning, Fisher, who was riddled with death, suddenly burst out, and he was ready to skip Margaret who was in the way in front of him and rescue Asuka Karasawa from the pool first.
But Margaret was like a prophet of the future, and the hundreds of eyes of her loom were fixed on Fisher, as if they were about to lock up his fate.
Thus, before he could move, Margaret had raised her hand, and from beneath Fisher, more and denser threads of death had wrapped around him.
The whole ground began to tremble and crack open dense and irregular cracks, and then out of them emerged even more terrifying threads of death, which indiscriminately began to entangle the creatures of the ideal country, even the mythical rank could not escape in the face of death, let alone the unconscious subhumans or humans in their sleep. The sacrifice began.
Margaret's body was constantly enveloped in chaos and the loom of fate, and in the terrifying whispers and whispers that had escaped from her subjective world, a substance or power that broke the rules began to flow from her seven orifices.
"Get out of the way, native, I heard... That knowledge..."
The sacrifice of death behind her wrapped Fisher tighter and tighter, and Margaret had no intention of paying any more attention to him, feeling the power of life coming from the power of death, and she almost cheered and lifted the teardrops of the World Tree below and merged them into the form that was born from the power of life.
In Margaret's memory, what should her Matilda look like? She is so well-behaved and lovely, she learns the language very quickly, and she is very sensible.
When she felt tired, when she was insulted and wanted to commit suicide in front of the German officers, she would hug herself with her small, warm body...
She would say,
"Mom, it's okay..." My Matilda··· My daughter...
As death continued to invade Fisher's body, the power stored there in his waist created a fierce resistance to the rules. His weakened physique finally stopped falling, and in the weak whisper in his ear, Fisher suddenly looked up, only to see the golden teardrops wrapped in the merging flesh and blood in Margaret's eyes.
The thing that was gradually taking shape had the appearance of a baby, the hateful body with tentacles, like the world could not tolerate, constantly emitting the stench of flesh and blood, and the little blood bubbles that came out of it were like the cry of a baby, and Fisher felt his eyes hurt when he saw it.
"Whoa!! Ahhhh ”
Even though the sacrifice had not yet been completed, the flesh and blood wrapped in the teardrops of the World Tree was only the size of a fist, but the body of the abominable creature had begun to grow small mouths with fangs, and it let out an extremely piercing roar.
But when she heard the piercing voice, Margaret felt so kind that she burst into tears.
"It's going to be right away... Soon... Matilda ··· I'll give you back your body, limbs, and internal organs right away... Right away, is this guy completely insane?!
Fisher couldn't bear it any longer, and he teared the lines of death from his body with tears in his eyes, and the power of the mythical rank in his body was finally revealed. He slammed on the ground, stretched out his hand, and the fluid sword in his hand let out an extremely terrifying popping sound like a javelin, heading towards Margaret.
Margaret's eyes locked on Fisher began to squirm long before he could make a move, and the moment the terrifying fluid sword flew past, she moved away from the extremely dangerous blow. "Boom!"
The flash of fluid sword smashed all the top of the tower above with a huge popping sound, but the power flew into the air with the fragments of the building before it was extinguished.
The edge of the power scraped against the edge of the floating flesh entity, shattering some of her hard-earned tentacles and pustules, and she was already crying instinctively, even though the teardrops hadn't fully integrated into them to give her consciousness.
"Uh-huh!" "No!!"
This directly angered Margaret, and she hurriedly used the power of the loom to lift "Matilda" up and fly into the air, so that Fisher would not be so easy to touch her.
There, death extracts the power of life and continues to compose Matilda's body.
Then, Margaret, who was in a frenzied face, turned around, stared at Fisher in front of her, and stretched out her hand straight at him.
"The loom can't help the World Tree, can't it help you, a native who has just entered the mythical rank? Your every move, what you're going to do, I know exactly what... Asuka refused to sacrifice you, and this has nothing to do with you anymore... Why, why are you holding me back from reuniting with Matilda. ”
Fisher glanced expressionlessly at the slowly expanding flesh creature above him wrapped in the golden light of teardrops, and suddenly smiled a little sarcastically,
"If your previous daughter can grow up like this, then I think this thing is really..." Ahhh ”
But before he could finish speaking, Margaret had already raised one of her arms frantically, and the chaotic power of the loom of fate drove a huge force at this moment, turning into a storm of space and sweeping towards Fisher.
Wherever the storm passed, everything that could be seen with the naked eye began to crumble, and the air was squeezed and the matter was condensed until it shrank to a scorching glow, and its lethality could be seen.
The problem is that such an attack is too slow for Fisher.
With just one move, the Fluid Sword flew back from behind, dodging the terrifying blow with him like lightning, and then taking the opportunity, he threw the Fluid Sword in his hand again, but it was the same as the last time, Margaret dodged like an unpredictable prophet, and the attack with the sound of spatial cracking was empty again.
Fisher's body did not stop, and hurriedly retreated in the direction of the pool, but before he could take a few steps, he felt that time around him had slowed down countless times, and a sense of deadly danger welled up in his heart, and he retreated again, out of Margaret's attack range.
The situation once again reached a stalemate, and the two faced each other in the air, not daring to approach each other. In reality, Fisher and Margaret couldn't do anything about each other.
Most of the Loom's abilities are now tampering with the power of death, so her offensive ability is limited, and Margaret's motherhood drives her not to stay away from the heavenly Matilda; But on the other hand, Margaret seems to have been able to anticipate Fisher's next move, and the possibility of Fisher causing her harm is slim to none.
Moreover, Fisher didn't want to entangle with the current Margaret first, he wanted to determine the current state of Asuka Karasawa first.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the pool of death, where the crimson color was pervasive, but there was no movement.
And under the stone tower, in the ideal country, the sacrifice of death continues.
Some people died, but not completely......
