The Other Side of the Last Boss Chapter 24
“What's……that……?”
With her mouth open, Tiraiza looks up at the sky. Floating in the sky is a huge unknown weapon. Seeing the arrows of light falling from it, Tiraiza screams.
“Get down!”
Everyone lies down, but that action was unnecessary. However, they headed only for the enemies.
“Was that an attack from an ally?”
Jamie gets up.
“I've never seen a magic like this.”
It's only natural for Iris to never have seen it.
The four spirit attributes----it’s not fire, not water, not earth, and not wind. It's neither light nor dark. The seventh element, evil attributed magic. It's an attribute unknown to humans.
The same thing can be said for demons.
“What was that just now? Dangerous.”
The high ranking demon in front of their eyes avoided the arrow by dodging it. It looked up at the sky, but the third dimensional magic formation had already disappeared.
“I guess it doesn't matter. For the time being, I'll just kill you guys.”
The demon focuses on the 3 in front of him. The 3 gradually begin to retreat. They were in an inferior position.
“Guwahaa!”
Getting hit by Jeko, high ranking demon gets blown away. Breaking through many buildings, the demon’s body finally stops. The buildings fell one by one.
The 3 took the chance to retreat.
“I heard the building was strengthened by magic, but it was a lot weaker than I thought. I guess it can't be helped.” “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, who are you?”
The high ranking demons rises from the debris.
“I won't answer that question. I don't have the right to.” “What are you saying!?”
The high ranking demon gets enraged, and attacks Jeko.
“Dieyaaaaaaaa!”
Those were the demon’s last words. The moment it prepared its sickle. Jako drew his katana.
“Plus, there's no point to telling it to someone who's about to die.”
The demon heard those words from behind it. The demon was cut in two at a speed which couldn't be seen with eyes.
Click. Jeko puts his katana back into its sheath.
“Just one more.”
Jeko’s figure disappeared back into darkness.
“I didn't think we'd have this much trouble……”
Fiona's mind was upset. She, as a hero with Krau Solas was unable to kill a high ranking demon. She realized they had already been defeated, but after that there were a few unknown phenomena.
What happened, and how was the situation? She pushed those thoughts to the back of her head, and focused on the high ranking demon in front of her.
“That's my line.”
As expected, as it had no choice but to be wary of the Divine Sword, the demon wasn't able to attack very often.
“But, let's finish this already----Bufaoto!”
The demon suddenly soared high into the sky. At a speed unseenable with bare eyes, the demon is kicked away by Jeko.
“Evil Burst.”
A large explosion of evil attributed magic occurs in the sky above the capital Rhodan. The high ranking demon who was blown into the sky began getting erased.
“What was that now……? Who……are you?”
Fiona asks while being way.
“c.r.a.p. There was someone here.”
Jeko was acting puzzled.
“I haven't received any instructions on what to do in this situation.”
Jeko is troubled.
“What's with this guy……he isn't understanding me.” “I guess I should erase her.”
Hearing Jeko's words, Fiona retreats without thinking. Jeko's aura is jaki. An unknown aura to mankind.
The unknown is feared. Compelled by that fear, Fiona backs away from him.
“Seyaaaaaa!”
She attacks him with Krau Solas. Jeko accepts it with his bare hand. He grabs it with his hand.
“No way! To stop it with your bare hands!?”
Fiona opens her eyes with surprise.
“Ow, ow. I thought it was a sharp sword, but it was Krau Solas. How nostalgic.”
Jeko laughed while showing his broken hand. However, that will heal immediately.
“What's so nostalgic? This sword has been pa.s.sed down to heroes since the fourth demonic calamity.” “That's why I said it was nostalgic. It'd take awhile to tell you the story----I’ll have you die here.”
Then, Jeko disappeared from Fiona's sight. While rotating, he blew away. Then, his head is smashed to the ground, and is *pikupiku* trembling.
“Excuse me. Lady, are you hurt?”
A gentlemanly young man calls out to her.
“Wa, yes. Who is it now?” “What did you say?” “That guy who's fallen over there----hey what? No one's there.”
Without making any sounds, Jeko disappeared.
“Did you see an illusion or something? I heard that the other hero fell down earlier and was carried into the castle.” “Eh, Yufi was? Thank you.”
Fiona bowed, and hurried to the castle.
“I deeply apologize.”
After confirming that Fiona left, Jeko reappears and apologizes.
“She's one of the heroes. Stop thinking of killing her.” “It was because she saw me fighting……” “It's difficult for humans to tell that us when we have our jaki released are the same person as us without it released.” “My clothes are……” “Yeah, I understand. Although they're common janitor clothes, they have the Cantabridge Academy embroidery is attached.”
Julius releases a sigh.
“Why were you wearing those…” “I'm sorry, I didn't think about it and wore my normal clothes.”
While Jeko was apologizing, he suddenly notices something, and rebuts.
“Ashtal-sama was also wearing his uniform!” “His way of fighting can't be noticed by humans. Also, so he wasn't exposed, we fought too. This time he just used a third dimensional magic formation from far away. Now he just has the duel outside the city. There are no problems.”
He confirmed that n.o.body was around before he released his jaki.
“Julius-sama rarely isn't wearing a tuxedo or a suit. You have a rough look today.” “I'm not used to it, so it's actually embarra.s.sing.”
Julius looks at himself. A flashy shirt pattern that young people would wear. It was his first time wearing such clothes.
Julius-sama walks out as is.
“Where are you going?”
Jeko asks.
“I’m cleaning up. I'm hiding evidence of what we did.” “Eh, can you hide this?”
Jeko is unable to understand.
“On the contrary, how do you think humans will judge today?” “Err, that we evil G.o.ds……” “Humans don't know anything about evil G.o.ds.”
Thus, no one will think that this is the work of evil G.o.ds.
“However, some definitely saw us. That overwhelming power and jaki.” “If no one says anything, they'll be lots of discussions, about who did this and how.” “Wa, haaa……”
Jeko wasn't able to keep up with the conversation.
“Then I'll skip to the conclusion. We'll say someone did it.” “Eh, are you going to tell everyone about Ashtal-sama?” “If I did that, we’d be putting the cart before the horse. If we convince the people that someone else did it, they'll consent to it. There are people who are fitting for that role near us.” “Were there?”
Julius smiles bitterly at Jeko's dullness. If it was Ashtal, he'd probably be beating him by now.
“50 years ago, there was someone who did something more amazing than this. If we said it was her, most people wouldn't suspect anything.”
While tilting his head, Jeko nodded. He didn't understand, but it was a pain, so he pretended like he did. If it was Ashtal, he would've socked him, but Julius didn't do such a thing. He just sighed.
“Over time, it'll be accepted as the truth. We're fine with that.”
For her, it'll probably become hard to live as a human. While thinking he was sorry for the inconvenience, Julius returned to the academy.
