This is the story of a magician and an elf girl.

“Gah-ga ...

In order to make sure that this attack could hit Jack accurately, the hellhound with breath in its mouth deliberately aimed in the direction that would hit Wendy and the others if Jack dodged, hoping to destroy Jack's advantage by the same means.

"Don't you have any other trick besides this?"

“Swoosh, snap, snap, snap!”

However, the hellhound was pierced through the body by the remaining lightning and fire before it could launch this attack. It did not realize that Jack's attack just now was not just to spin in place or to show off his speed. He was setting a trap, an arc cage that was enough to completely restrain its movements, restraining the movements of the monster of hellfire.

“It’s almost time to wrap it up – come down… obey me… serve me… thunders that rule the sky! Please release your power here –!”

“Swoosh, boom, boom, boom, boom!!”

In response to Jack's call, the thunder and fire immediately descended from the sky, and the dark night in the eyes of the adventurers turned into a dazzling galaxy in an instant. Jack, who was intertwined in the starlight, used them as cannonballs to repeatedly shoot down the breath released by the Hellfire Monster, followed by a one-sided attack, which almost non-stop weakened its physical strength and remaining magic power. It was no longer the same as before, unable to even put up a decent resistance. It had lost its life, and now it was resurrected as the incarnation of Hellfire. It had been forced into a dead end - as long as it used one more blow that was enough to destroy its power, the Hellfire Monster would turn into dust and return to hell.

"Jack... you have made up your mind... don't regret it... Cerberus is still waiting for you... you know that, right?"

"...Ah...I know...even so I have to destroy it completely - let it wither under the punishment of lightning and fire...This is the first step for adventurers like me to open up the future! This is also the first step under these stars! This is the eternal and indestructible-"

In order to deal the final blow to the monster, Jack, who had drawn out the greatest power, collected tens of millions of lightnings and gathered them in the thunderclouds above the sky. A ball of plasma beyond imagination was about to turn into a dazzling lightning and fall down.

It cannot be dodged or evaded, it is certain to hit, it can even light up the other side of the future, that light contains the power to kill even demons and gods, it is called...

"——The light of adventure..."

“Swoosh, bang, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!!!”

As the light fell, huge thunder also resounded throughout the sky and every corner of the ground, gathering trillions of amperes of electric arcs that pierced the earth. The fire monster that was swallowed by the lightning was almost unable to move under the huge divine power, and could only allow the heat to penetrate its indestructible body until it was completely destroyed. The horrifying afterimage gradually decomposed into debris and fragments in the light, and its soul was shattered.

Jack, who was blown away by the reaction force, was also affected by the aftermath and returned to the adventurers' camp, bringing the battle to an end.

“Guga huh?!”

"Master Jack!!"

"Jack!! Jack!"

"Jack!!!"

The adventurers and others who came forward to greet the hero had already stretched out their hands before he landed, regardless of the fact that he was covered with a few arcs of electricity and sparks - for them, as long as they could grab his hand, it would be an honor to the hero. In history, he was the only hero who could single-handedly defeat the super-large hellhound in the form of hellfire.

“Guhh?!”

“Wow?!”

“Ugh!?”

“Ahhh… it hurts, it hurts… you… are all… stupid… are you rushing over here together to form a human wall…”

As a result, all the members fell to the dirty sand after being pounced by Jack. Even Athena, the goddess who valued appearance over inner qualities, fell and was covered in sand. The Hellfire Monster that came into view showed no signs of revival. This time, finally...

“It’s over…”

"Ah... that guy can't be resurrected... after losing his soul and body... he has returned to nothingness... I said from the beginning that they are not living beings... they are simply replicas... or inferior inorganic modified creatures... You don't need to feel guilty - mission accomplished."

"boom."

At the same time, huge amounts of experience points were given to the adventurers along with light. By exploring various parts of the skill tree, they not only gained multiple powerful skills, but also obtained seats as trunk-level adventurers.

This is the power given by Athena's authority and the blueprint that the magician once drew in the cornerstone of the world. Jack now fully understands that he actually left so many means to fight against hellhounds in the skill tree, but people in the past could only exert half-baked strength like just now. It would definitely be a lie to say that they would not despair or feel frustrated.

He had no idea how much that person cared about the adventurers, but that kindness was always...

"This is... information about skills that has appeared in my mind unconsciously..."

"...So amazing...If I use these moves...the hellhounds just now will be..."

"... can't pose a threat at all... no... I can't even defeat a hundred people with one..."

"...Athena...you actually know it, right..."

"...Of course...Although John is a thoughtful and hard-to-understand person...but his strength...his persistence...is not due to himself. In the past, he devoted all his efforts to create a world where adventurers can survive. After obtaining the omnipotent magic eyes, he only used this power for the people - can you understand..."

"..."

A strong sense of guilt rushed through the adventurers' hearts - they still remembered that when they were about to give up just now, the feeling of succumbing to collapse became the source of frustration. They had to admit that they were too weak. If they could be as brave as Jack and keep moving forward and not give up - the result might not be like this.

"...But...so many people...died...it was our negligence...I'm sorry...Master Jack...I'm sorry..."

"Don't be like that... Get up... This is not your responsibility... Ah speaking of which... Where is Wright... Why can't I see him?"

"Oh no, Master Wright seems to be still here..."

At the same time, Jack and his crew, who had hurriedly set out to look for Wright, discovered that he was still in danger of death, even though the most difficult enemy before them had fallen - if he couldn't survive, there would be no point.
