Chapter 54 The Worst of the worst ③

Part 2

He was wearing a crystal ring on his wrinkled index finger. However, unlike ordinary gems, green flames flicker inside the colorless, transparent crystals.

It was a Relic. It was the trump card chosen by Noto Cochlear who doesn’t possess any other weapons except his magical power which he has absolute confidence in.

It was a Relic that allows you to stock one magic and release it at will in exchange for putting a great burden on you.

The magic stocked inside was an original magic created by Noto.

It was the trump card of a high-class Magi that sent his disciple who had high magic resistance to Hades.

『Aaron Mist (Silent Death)』.

The magic that was once stored was released and the crystal ring returned colorless and transparent. There wasn’t any flashing light or sound.

Sytry, with her eyes wide open, wavered greatly. She fell on the floor toppling over the table.

The mist of poison which was magically synthesized wasn’t flashy, but it sneaked up to you with no sound or color and reaped your life in a single breath.

It was his interpersonal trump card. It didn’t let you have the chance to use detoxification Magic or medicine.

The remaining pain faded away. I don’t know what drug she used but it wasn’t an everlasting effect.

But more than that, now, I have to find a place to hide. Sytry said she hadn’t told anyone, but there was no proof that it was true.

I wiped my mouth with my sleeves and spoke to Sofia who was lying down.

Mysteriously, the anger I had up until now had subsided. With a look of pity, I spoke to the girl.

“You idiot… Sofia. You could have accomplished so much inside Akasha…” (Noto)

“This is… Impossible. Because… We are… 『Friends』.” (Sytry)

“Wha!?” (Noto)

…Why are you alive!?

With the exit right behind Noto, Sytry who should have been dead put her hand on the floor, and moving like an undead, she stood up.

When she stood up on her two legs while swaying, she coughed a few times and looked at Noto.

Her eyes were looking at Noto through the gap between her pink blond hair. Her voice was shaking but the emotion contained inside were the same as before.

“As expected… Poison Magic… Hahaa… I had strengthened, my immune system but as it has been a long time… It has worked on me a little bit.” (Sytry)

“It isn’t… possible. You shouldn’t be able to move…” (Noto)

“Before, I have been stripped of my consciousness in a Shrine once… I reflected on it and poisoned everyone little by little to make everyone resistant…” (Sytry)

Until now Noto had used this magic countless times and it had definitively slaughtered all his enemies.

It may not be effective, but it was impossible to get up in such a short amount of time.

Sytry greatly shook her head and *panpan* hit her pale cheeks. Then faced Noto and laughed at him.

“Is this the end, ‘Shisho (Teacher)’? Will you surrender? I will present your Relic as a gift to Cry-san. As I could only catch you… It would be a shame if I don’t bring anything home.” (Sytry)

“Kuh… Damnit…” (Noto)

“Ah…” (Sytry)

She raised a small voice at Noto who suddenly start running.

That behavior shouldn’t be one aimed at her enemy. That innocent smile she was showing was similar to ‘Infinite Variety’s (Senpen Banka)’ one.

I am not blind. 『Aaron Mist (Silent Death)』 was not ineffective. Sytry’s feet wobbling like a drunk proved it.

Right now… I need to run. Run and wait for the drug to stop working.

There was still a hideout. There was still a hideout that no one except Noto knew about, I can restart if I rejoin with the other members of the 『Tower of Akasha (Akasha no To)』.

If I was caught here… Sytry will, without doubt, 『Clean Up』 in the most Magi-like way.

She can do it… In a way, where 『Death』 is more kind.

“I took my time, talk to you about the situation, and tried to convince you with all my honesty… Now, this is my last request. I don’t like to resolve problems with my fist like 『Onee-chan』. I am not… 『Deep Black (Saitei Saiyaku)』anymore!” (Sytry)

I received a ridiculous persuasion from behind me.

I only have to think about running away. No… I don’t have to run away. I could get caught by the Empire. It was one hundred times better than being caught by Sytry.

I turned the doorknob and opened the door.

Have to go outside. It will be the worst for her if she was noticed. That woman doesn’t want to be discovered.

I scolded my legs when they almost got entangled and tried to run upstairs to the above ground, when at that time…

Something cold came down from my head.

Was it raining? When such a question crosses my head, I couldn’t move as if my power was sucked up.

Why am I here? I don’t know what I am doing.

Shouldn’t I run away? The commands issued by my brain do not reach my body as if they were interrupted halfway.

I waver as if my consciousness was melting.

The last thing Noto heard was a blurry scream as if there was a thick filter distorting the sound.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading this!

So, Noto had the same type of Relic as Cry but he still thought that it was Cry who use the gravitational magic XD

And what could have caught Noto? Was It Sytry’s trap? Or was it something else? Let’s see maybe it is something viscous, liquid shape, that someone dropped by accident when he was going in a Shrine? XD

Next chapter is the conclusion of this arc!

Tchao à plus?!
