Crown Dead

"That's right, that's right! That's the scream that the Holy Maiden made when she was being scorched by flames! Go on, go on! I'll let this corrosive magic power fill every blood vessel in you. Since you just It’s a defective product, so at least you can learn to be like a real saint when you die! Hahahaha!!”

Bluebeard laughed crazily, and at the same time used the tentacles to forcibly corrode Heizhen with the polluted magic power.

"You will not be able to use magic power, let alone construct weapons. Since you are not the saint I want, at least I can let you experience the same painful death as her!"

"You're really—completely crazy, Jill!"

Severe pain lingered in her body, Hei Zhen bit her lips tightly in order to keep herself awake, and at the same time was waiting for an opportunity.

While the body was convulsing continuously due to the severe pain, it may be the satisfaction of the scene in front of him, or it may be that Hei Zhen has no ability to resist.The tentacles that produced Hei Zhen's limbs slackened in an instant.

At this very moment, Hei Zhen pulled out her wrist from the shackles and stretched it behind her.Pinned there was a silver rapier.

"Shh!"

Hei Zhen cut off the rest of the tentacles and gained the ability to move again.Blue Beard looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

"No—impossible! You are no different from ordinary people, this weapon—this weapon!?"

"Yes, this is not my weapon at all, I will return it to my master now!!"

"Wait--"

The distance between the two was too close, Blue Beard didn't even have time to use the textbook in his hand, the silver long sword had already pierced through his heart with Hei Zhen's thrust.

"Guwa——!!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out from Blue Beard's mouth, and the blood dyed Hei Zhen's white hair scarlet.

"This sword is for you, who was still a little naive, to go back!!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Heizhen roared, holding the hilt of the sword with both hands and pushing Blue Beard towards the inside of the church.

"Boom!!"

A muffled loud noise came from the statue of the burning saint without a face, and Bluebeard was nailed to the statue by the sword that once belonged to him.

"You - Guwa!!"

"I'm sorry Jill, I originally wanted to put this sword in place of your grave in a place with a good environment."

Hei Zhen looked at Blue Beard, but she didn't feel relieved or happy.

The guy in front of him destroyed the whole of France, summoned himself out for extremely selfish reasons, and then wanted to kill himself because it didn't suit his own wishes.

But... why can't I even feel the joy after revenge?Why didn't even a little bit of relief that I was finally able to live for myself not reflected?

Hei Zhen looked at Blue Beard, and she suddenly found that Blue Beard's bloodshot and bulging eyes had somehow changed back to their original appearance, just like Guildrey in Paris.

"You—you did a great job, my lord."

"...?!"

The blue beard whose heart was punctured showed a smile to Heizhen bleeding.

"Seeing that you have finally found the meaning of your own existence, seeing that you have finally become an independent "person", I have finally obtained the so-called salvation."

"You...what are you talking about?"

"Please forgive me for all the unforgivable behaviors I have done to you, but please tell my master—I mean, please tell the evil dragon knight:【I still don’t agree with you such an idiot boy]."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Hei Zhen looked at Blue Beard vacillatingly, but at this moment, because of the raging tentacles, the whole church began to collapse in an all-round way. The ground where Blue Beard was located suddenly collapsed, and there was a bottomless abyss under the building.

"Please live happily as an ordinary heroic spirit. Hell does not need your ruling."

boom--! !

"Jill—damn it!!"

Heizhen tries to pull Bluebeard back, but at the last moment Jill summons a tentacle and pushes Heizhen away.The huge boulders dropped from the ceiling directly covered up where Lanbeard and Heizhen were originally, and they fell into the abyss.

The entire cathedral collapsed, and huge cracks spread from the ground.

Although I don't know what the last words he said meant, but this place has already fallen into the brink of collapse.

Hei Zhen turned her head and rushed towards the gate of the church, but just before she was about to reach the gate, the stone bricks she was standing on shattered like foam.

"—"

The gate that was close at hand began to descend, like a pair of invisible hands, trying to drag Hei Zhen into the deepest part of the darkness.

Is this the end.

"boom!!"

Debris from the wooden door of the church flew out, and a not-so-strong but exceptionally powerful arm held Hei Zhen tightly.

"Welcome back."

Xianyu showed a bright smile.

Merry Christmas everyone!

The end of the second volume of the Black Flame of the Ember of Fire. A clichéd growth fairy tale

"Everything is over—although Jill said something that caught my attention at the end, this singularity, this dream that should not exist in the real world, has finally come to an end."
