Soaring Wall

Author note:

Milim was furious

She decided that she must, definitely, eliminate Velda, the root of all evils

Milim burst the door open and proceeded to the throne roo

Transparent capsules filled with clear liquid were arranged syste inside each capsule were unborn angels

The soul energy was being poured into these empty vessels

Because they didn’t possess a physical body, they were beings that could only exist in the Heaven

If they established a certain degree of ego, they could act on the surface world for a short time, but…… It required a bit els and aiht to the throne

The heart of this Heaven

It was the place where the God[1] sat at the center of everything

Velda was now the ruler of this castle, in both name and reality

The automatic defense system of the Sky Castle[2] reacted to Milied her as an enemy

The alarm reverberated and Guardian Dolls[3] appeared

However, they saw Mili

「YoU CaNnOt PrOcEeD bEyOnD tHiS pOiNt PleAsE tUrN bAcK」[4]

The dolls warned Milinored them

「Get out of the way」

As she said so, Mili her fist and destroyed one of the dolls

The dolls couldn’t attack Milim due to the necklace that showed that she was Velda’s family

Nobody could stop Milim

That was until a worown to be such fine la……」

The woa solid black dress

「Is that you, Salohtened up Milim’s expression for a moment, and then――

「No You are not Salome……」

Her expression was clouded over by sadness instantly

The woman who tried to embrace Milim was split into two

What dripped out from her wound wasn’t blood but a transparent liquid of unknown ingredients――it was so that came out of a tattered body of a co

「……Ahh…… Mi, lirown……beep――――」

She extended her hand to touch Milim’s cheek and wiped the teardrop on it

Just like that, the doll round

She was the woman who had raised and educated Mili

The woman who cared for Milim in the olden days had passed away

There’s no way she’s alive

Unlike Milim, who could live eternally, Salome was no more than one of the maids who served Lucia

There was no way that Salome, as a human, is still alive

But…Milim couldn’t help but think of it

Whether her soul was called back to dwell inside the doll or not?

Such a thing was impossible

That was the conclusion Milim came to: the correct truth

Milim destroyed the doll without hesitation and severed her attach, and yet the doll’s satisfied s tears for some reason had made Milim confused

So――

She was perhaps really――

「What a cruel thing to do Even though I especially called back a deceased soul for your sake I thought you would be pleased, so I prepared the present secretly…… I guess you didn’t like it?」

A clear voice reached Milim’s ears

She didn’t need to turn around

The owner of the voice was――

「It’s you, Velda You bastard, I hope you are prepared for it」

「Prepared…… For what I wonder?」

Against Milim’s expression filled rath, Velda still had a cool s as the two faced each other

She hadn’t contacted Rimuru yet, but Milim wasn’t worried about it

Since she felt residues of the Hero Chloe at the tio

It was a very splendid sword slash that crossed over even『Multiple Existence』 and reached Lucia’s main body It happened just for an instant, but Milim wouldn’t fail to notice it

It was the ti controlled by Lucia in the surface to be released Although, it see as he lurked inside the shadow and perhaps already worked out soht like that, even if she didn’t bother to contact hi would be conveyed to Ria was the first one to be eliminated by Rimuru’s subordinates

The small fry called Kazaream seemed to have fallen as he couldn’t defeat Leon

She also knew about Dagruel’s defeat as Lucia was raising a fuss about it

Although where Dino was and what he was doing was unknown, Miliht that it was pointless even to be worried about that cunning man She knew that he would suddenly appear sooner or later after all

In other words, it could be said that Velda’s subordinates were all defeated

「It seems that your prided Four Unholy Commanders have all been defeated You’re the only one left, Velda I shall have you receive the reward for ry」

As Milim said so, she pulled out the demonic sword “Earth” and took a stance

Velda looked at Mili his shoulders

「I’ll play with you, Milinal

Milim easily demonstrated continuous sword techniques

However, Velda avoided everything by a paper-thin in

He was still unarnited Mili as if it had reacted to it

The rusts on the surface of the sword disappeared, showing its bluish-white blade It seethened as it absorbed waves of her anger

「Die! Drago Break[5]!!」

A ferocious slash like an e towards the defenseless Velda

However――

「Too bad You’re a bit slow」

Velda easily stepped back with just a bit ed Milim’s sword

But, that was as Milim’s planned

「The time for destruction is now!」

The moment Velda evaded Milim’s sword, their position was now reversed

Miliround below the throne

Plus, on the very rear of Velda’s position―― soared the Heaven Gate, the only gateway connecting the Heaven and the surface world

Fro, Milim aimed for the chance to simultaneously attack both Velda and the Heaven Gate

With the deed with Destruction Intent

Right now, Milio Nova at full power towards Velda

A bluish-white light beaht overlapped repetitively and pierced through Velda

It pressurized the surroundings as the bea towards the entrance froht was born, blowing away all of the lined up pillars

And beyond the was as Milih Velda as its power increased and pierced the Heaven Gate

◇◇◇

As the lights subsided, half of the Sky Castle had been cleanly bloay and disappeared

Only half of the castle remained behind where Milim stood

However, the Heaven Gate was still intact

It wasn’t unharmed as there were nuest attack

No, that’s not it
