Although currently their specs were li in full Because Kaori had the same flesh with the apostles she would be able to resist the disintegration if she activated the same ability, but even so she would still be overwhelree that couldn’t be ignored Kaori herself should also understand that Despite so, just why…that hat the apostle pondered

Right after that, the body of the apostle was bisected by Kaori’s sword, almost at the same time Kaori ed by many silver feathers

“She is supposedly able to trace our experience but…after all she is just an imitation in the first place What a foolish act”

“That’s not actually true”

The words that one of the apostles who fired the silver feathers whispered were immediately replied to

The eyes of the apostle narrowed quietly froitated at all

Ahead of the apostle gaze, she could see the figure of a wounded Kaori at the spot where the silver feathers were fired at

As expected, she could be da up a brave front The apostle who ment deployed innu bloordlessly The other apostles were also deploying their feathers at the same time, so Kaori as at the center of the attacks looked like she was drowning in a sea of stars

But, just before those silver feathers could be fired the apostles reflexively stopped their movement completely

The reason was because the wounds of Kaori were healed in the blink of eye before their gaze With speed and vividness that reseeneration’, even the wounds that were pierced by a silver feather or the gaping open hole returned to their for returned to as good as new

The apostles couldn’t see her using ic Apostle body also wasn’t provided with a function of autoazed fixedly at Kaori――and they noticed, behind the forelock that ept by the wind, on Kaori’s forehead, there was a cross crest shining silver black that was carved there

“That is…”

“’Holy Crest of the Fallen’――this isof the battle It’s not as great as Yue’s regeneration, however even if I’m wounded it will activate by itself and heal eneration co a cross that shouldered the role of a ic would activate regeneration ic could even be called as a powerful version of auto-regen Furtheric the holy crest that was like a tattoo could be erased

“…However, if we continue to fire saturation attack, sooner or later the daic power is also not unli Kaori’s words, an apostle intentionally said out words to pull herself together It was unclear whether the apostle was trying to persuade herself with those words or if she was seriously thinking so…

Kaori made a fearless s Kaori from before would never make by anysoh that action

“You have two s there”

“…What?”

Kaori’s atreatest possible vigilance

Toward such apostle, Kaori prepared her tords and spread her two pairs of wings widely while leaking out her words in a small voluure vanished and appeared right behind the apostle She was in the stance of swinging out her sword

“If I will it, then I am able to avoid any kind of saturation attack”

“To, too, fast――”

While the other apostles surrounding them were bewildered, the apostle who Kaori conversed with until just noas gazing in astonishonally and blood spraying everywhere

Kaori swept her large sword to shake off the clotted blood, the apostles itnessed that returned to their senses and fired siure had already gone by the time they fired, at the next instant two apostles were bisected and fell toward the ground

Even when the apostles aze to that spot in shock, just as expected Kaori’s figure was already gone by the time they looked, and another apostle at a different place was bisected again

“Spa, space teleportation?”

One apostle raised a questioning voice But, right after that, she felt the wind gently stroking her body and a diagonal split appeared in her field of vision Like that her consciousness fell into darkness then

“No way that’s true I aic just so you know This islike a speed that we cannot detect is just-“

“I can produce such speed More accurately I a that, the apostle who talked with a shrill voice froic ‘God Speed’――a le event If the time for an attack to reach an opponent was shortened then it would beco was shortened then it would be possible to move with a speed that could be ic was traced back then it was a ic that interfered with tiic stopped at ‘regeneration’ as the liic from Meljine, she had trained in it all this tiic that she obtained and so that fitted her perfectly who had the role as healer, so her attachic was also especially all thethe hour crystal, Kaori also becah within a limit, her possession of the body of an apostle was also a factor in her ic

Of course there was also deic power for every single use That was the reason why Kaori didn’t i her brethren got exter speed that they were powerless to do anything against, an apostle changed the aiuitated even just by a little

“Indeed, you are strong As to be expected froular However, a war is not so that can be influenced by an individual”

“What do you want to say?”

“Look at the surface Even while you are facing all of us, the people are dying continuously It seeht, but in the end they are huue and da they too will be reduced intohere fro that you can protect Everything, is just a pointless struggle”

Kaori stoppedapostle quietly And then, she gently s the point of her sword at her while proclai mankind’s death and opened herlike the aic power…just who are you saying that to?”

“What are…”

“Even if ed, I a Master’, and I a(Hajie sword in reverse grip and pointed the tip to the surface That shich had been added with io all out in exhibiting her ability as ‘Healing Master’ shined brilliantly in black silver color

And then,

“――’Mighty Breath of Heaven Turning’”

Right after that, a single black silver drop fell toward the ground froe sword

That drop when it reached the height of severalfroh the whole battlefield Two layers, three layers, the black silver waves surged above the allied force

Then, at the next moment a soldier of the allied force that should have died already opened his eyes with a snap And then he raised his body with a bewildered look and touched all over his chest that should have been slashed open, when he realized there was no injury there he tilted his head further

There were also others, people ere gouged out by silver feathers or killed by eleic woke up one after another And then when they understood that their body was somehow alive with their wound healed, they immediately stood up and rushed forward in order to assist their co the apostles

Not only the people who had died, naturally even the people ere still alive but got wounded were also healed in the blink of eye

“Wha-, they are revived-!?”

From above, the apostle who confirh the claim of the apostles that they were eeneration coic picked out which were the allies using soul -attach, ic As expected, in the case where the corpse didn’tbisected until the body becoone past ten ic wouldn’t work on the corpse that was in those states, but other than those cases all the allies inside the radius of four kilometers with the black silver drop as the center would have revival and healing perforic

Even with just those properties, this ic was already like a joke However, the show of Kaori’s true ability didn’t stop just there

“――’Divine Binding of Layered Usurpation’”

Different frorip its tip pointing below, the other large sas held in front of Kaori’s chest with its tip pointed straight above And then, along with that proclae sword became clad in silver black radiance

It was like a black hole that sed the galaxy, and it exhibited a result that didn’t contradict that appearance

“ts, this is, h they were already had their specs shaved off by the choir right now, but right nohen they felt that their strength was shaved off even further the apostles showed their agitation

Looking carefully, radiant lights were leaking out froe of several hundred ed toward the large sword Kaori held like a hts were absorbed by the large sword,froic power recovered, it even looked that the rew a lotthe ground, a silver black drop fell to the ground oncebelow once more like before And the result, thebetter The sharpness and power of their

“I just stole the strength of all of you”

“Such thing…”

“It’s possible as you can see I aic power to other people is also our role Though it takes a bit of ti that was easy but to actually do it was another ic ‘Divine Binding of Layered Usurpation’――this coic, and then it used subliic ‘Divine Transfer’ in order to transfer ic power of the seized opponent forcefully to recover one’s own ic could also be reused for things like ally’s strengthening and so on

Of course, noric power fro theic was the twin large swords her hands were holding

――Demon Sword of Circle Calamity Anima Erunte

――Holy Sword of Gospel Bel Rexion

The demon sword plundered the power of the opponent and turned it into its food, while the holy sword made that power into unlimited power to share with the ally These tords exhibited their ether, a demon sword and a holy sword that exclusively assisted Kaori in her use of ’Mighty Breath of Heaven Turning’ and ‘Divine Binding of Layered Usurpation’

“…Even so, even so, all of you cannot win We the apostles are infinite No matter how many little tricks you all play, no le, in the end only the destiny of ruin awaits you all Because that is the great will of the god”

“Human won’t perish Surely it will be the same result no matter what kind of world it is Just like how a boy without any considerable strength crawled up from the bottom of the abyss by himself, even when human is sed by difficulty, they will surely find out their path to survival You see, hu as there is just one person ishes to live, wishing to protect so like a aze of the apostle and Kaori crossed

“…Then, please show nal, the fierce battle was restarted once roup, and Kaori exterminated them who attacked her

If she saw the allied force became exhausted she would heal them, in a certain interval she would perforic power decreased she would steal fro toward the surface

At the other places too, the dragon race people were holding back the apostles with fierce efforts, on the surface too every single person were continuing to fight to the death

It was unclear just how much tione fro their sensation of tiic, perhaps the allied force would collapse already since a long tio That was just how endless the force of the apostle was

Even so the allied force soldiers believed that Hajime, the ‘Sword of Goddess’ who stepped into the Holy Precincts would bring an end to this for them, with that belief they mustered their willpower There was already a lot of soldiers who met their end because the revival didn’tpushed back by the violence of nuan to rule over the allied force

But, at that time, suddenly one soldier who looked up at the sky above God Mountain whispered with small voluaze, there was the scene of thefrom the crack of space increased in force all of a sudden

And then, the miasma fell and covered all over the surface of the collapsed God Mountain, without stopping the miasma flowed and headed toward the fortress Ahead of the h and touched the grass plain in front of the fortress Just like the dust cloud that was produced when God Mountain crumbled, the black miasma approached thehts were ht after that, a great number of roar rose and countless monsters leaped out from inside the miasma It seemed that it was the second wave of the monster army

Furthermore, several thousand apostles also flew out all at once fro it on…this is a ti like that but…this is really bad huh”

With a body that was dyed bright red from the blood spurt of the enemy, Gahard’s expression turned like so Not tointo despair

Even though it was already absolutely the li the, tens of thousands ofagain――perhaps this deadlocked state would crumble for the worse like this

“First and second division, concentrate at the front! Don’t let the e into melee battle-! Stop them in place-!”

A formation was immediately for, the air was rue and the roars’ shockere getting closer

Looking at the overflowing large swar an avalanche of enor all over Gahard’s body The dragons and Kaori were also held back in place by the siroup fro their hands full with protecting the choir squad

The distance was approximately one kilometer

The expressions of the allied force soldiers were convulsing from the excessive pressure

Perhaps this is hopeless Unintentionally anyone was giving off that atmosphere It was at that round vanished Along with the monsters

“――’Kalpa of Destruction’――’Kalpa of Destruction’”

A voice of a woman resounded thrice That voice resounded with clarity even at the battlefield which was filled to the brim with noises

But, rather than that voice, Gahard and others were shocked evenbefore their eyes

The leading pack of the advancinginto the bottoether They were unable to even raise the screaht after that, the voice that excessively reverberated and excessively irritated the listeners, the cause of this phenoate that opened at the plain in front of the allied force

“Yahoooo☆ Appearing when the situation is in a pinch, the world idol, Miledy-chan has arrived-! Ahahaaa, isn’t this the greatest ti! Just-as-ex-pec-ted, me♪ A woman that can read thein love with ole a s on its shoulder Miledy’s appearance that looked like she was screwing around a lot was taking a pose that felt like ‘Kyarurun☆’ toward the allied force ar ‘tehehe-pero’ expression The s like that by so while chuckling tehehe and the person’s tongue sticking out)

Including Gahard’s, the time of the allied force arenuine confusion of “Just what in the world is that” while at the sa into an indescribable irritation

There an explanation ca to her, this person was a helper that Haji speech and conduct, this person was really quite useful It was unknohat she had been doing until now, but she finally arrived right now, soh crowd all of youuuuu ‘Perhaps this is hopeless’…you all seemed to act pointlessly serious like that so I tried to enliven this placeee Yet now you all are o to wasteee, hry here!”

The irritation gauge of Gahard and everyone else al off like that, Miledy pointed one of her hands at the approaching miasma behind and said a word

“――’Severance Catastrophe’”

The star of catastrophe created above the eous force There was also the figures of monsters that wereto be a nuisance of Miledy-chan is soivable! Punishap between her screwing around voice and her chanting voice was absurd

A voice of absolute zero resounded only in that instant of chanting

The result from that was different froround all at once and they flew beyond the sky with a preposterous ravitational pull and centrifugal force Therefore, those who had their gravitational pull severed would be floay to the beyond

The ten of thousand monsters were curbsto Even the ic were exterolems one after another before the monsters could reach the allied force

The allied force didn’t know that this person was one of the ‘liberator’, but even so they greatly comprehended that this was a helper that Hajime relied on That this person was similarly a round was oleh that was sohtly spreading a the soldiers

But, that relieve was iht after

The apostles who overflowed frole cluster Their number was approximately a thousand

The thousand apostle that fornored the attack of Kaori or the dragons and began to descend in a straight line

Naturally, anti-air artillery was also fired fro one after another like scattered flowers, they relied on their nu toward the choir

“tsk, I won’t let you-!”

{All hands, stop that apostle swarm-!}

With desperate look Kaori and Adol exerted all their strength to crush the large spear made from apostles

Several hundred apostles were bloay in their descend to the ground, but even so the swarle cluster couldn’t be broken up coood-, run awaaay!”

Kaori as unable to oppose that pressure raised a screae spear of apostles was e silver radiance like a divine spear that was thrown by god while stabbing at the barrier of the choir squad

And then, before the people in the area could do so on the barrier that was protecting the choir squad…finally, the barrier was co with a thunderous sound

The powerless members of the choir squad were vainly scattered to death before that tree that bound the apostles was broken

The apostles of god exerted their ability in full

Bloody eeping over the battlefield Here and there silver lights were bursting up, the allied force soldiers that weretheir resistance in those areas were instantly turned into a lu into a apthe picture of hell behind her while exercising the ravity toward the battlefield The targets were easy to understand The conspicuous silver ht after that, the apostles were si while pulled until the distance of a kiloround instantly

But, for the apostles in the strengthened state who had recovered their specs, this ainst them They immediately fixed their posture There the apostles who turned into the divine spear gathered They didn’t stop there As though to invite despair forout further from the crack in space

The reddish black sky was filled to the briree that they could be od, as though to declare that fighting bit by bit was troublesoht now they would forget all the hu killed, they would an to focus their silver reat barrier was already gone The anti-air artillery and sniping attacks were shooting down the apostles with certainty The dragons and Kaori were also exter because of their concentration in focusing theirlike flies from the sky

However, the apostles didn’t pay theive any care of the daht of destruction for the sake of destroying the mankind No matter how many of them were killed and killed, the apostles’ number were replenished one after another, their nuic poas just toothe apostles couldn’t catch up

Right now, if the silver sun was fired, the result wouldn’t end with e toward the allied force The result that arrived would be ‘the defeat of lared at the sky with a gaze filled with deter both her hands above In anticipation of this situation, the crystals that were placed in certain places on this battlefield reacted to Kaori’s will Those lights connected to each other with lines of light and foric circle

――Kaori’s exclusive use Large scale protection barrier stone ‘Shutzengel’

This artifact assisted the barrier e-scale barrier that was even ic circle that covered the whole battlefield

“Perish”

“――’Indomitable Holy Severance’–!!”

When the silver sun was fired, a super large scale protection wall covering the allied force was deployed at the same time

The silver spear and the black silver barrier collided

Thunderous roar

Flash

The world was filled with those two things

“Guh, UuuUUUUUaAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!!”

Kaori’s screa a co her Her black silver wings were flickering, her altitude was gradually dropping

The black silver barrier was Holy Severance that was enchanted with disintegration ability Therefore it neutralized the apostles’ disintegration ability and changed the attack’s nature into mere bombardment But, even so it was a full power bombardment formed from several thousand apostles, it caused cracks to for that using regeneration ic poas flowing out froritted her teeth whileher altitude and the barrier desperately

The apostles didn’t circle behind the barrier to attack fronity as apostles of god, they wereto the silver bombardment continuously to smash the resistance froirl shouldering this alone-!}

Adol’s angry voice roared The dragons gathering behind Kaori laid out their barriers one after another to layer with Kaori’s

“This should lighten up the burden ic created gravity spheres around the part of the barrier that was directly iht

Other than theic――with Liliana and the classmates in the lead, all of them deployed their barrier and supported Kaori The people who couldn’t use barrieranother effect of ‘Shutzengel’, the effect of transferring the ic power of the soldiers to Kaori, in that way they were sending their ic power to help

A few second passed, or perhaps it had been several minutes

The world of thunderous roar and flash that felt like an eternity finally announced its end

At the sa

“Haa haa, we, endured…”

Kaori who had endured through the disintegration bo heavily

Her coons at her surrounding were also the same Liliana and others and also the allied force soldiers on the ground who had ic poere also in siri that Kaori was s of Layered Usurpation’…

A silver sun was illuod are infinite――hadn’t we said that?”

Not only their nu apostles hispering so while creating a new silver sun

Kaori’s ic power recovery wouldn’t make it in time

She wouldn’t be able to endure if they were attacked one more time by that

Not only Kaori, all people of the allied force who looked up at the sky also realized that

Despair,

Resignation,

Were filling the heart of the down froht like that

But…

Kaori quietly lifted both her hands with her breathing still ragged Her strong gaze that didn’t show anything like even a spec of resignation was staring still at the light of direction directly, a fire was burning in her soul, she scraped up even the frag soht

She didn’t give up

It was unclear just howthe soldiers of the allied force could see her figure If they could see her, then surely they would shed their tears from that noble and beautiful appearance without any doubt Just like Adol and others whose heart was stolen by seeing that gallant figure froer is fine We are going to survive!”

If they could only just survive a second longer, at that ti the end to all of this

No, surely he would end all of this

She believed that

That hy, even at the verge of death, even just for a fragive up!

The whole world was dyed silver

The barrier that she could deploy looked so frail like a toy

But, for a second

Without any doubt, the attack was stopped in that second

At the next ht!”

Kaori made an expression that was enchanted froaze, there was the scene of the silver light dispersing with a puff and the swarht after that, like acut, the apostles stared at nothing with lightless gaze and they were falling to the ground like flies

{This is, no, wait, what in the world is that…don’t tellbewildered froht froaze, there, space itself was shaking, the sky was in an abnormal state where various sceneries which were projected like video recording were appearing and disappearing It was as though there were several different worlds at the sky above, the sky looked like it was going to crumble and fall off anytime now

That situation was like the prelude of the world cru to ruination even more

“Hajime-kun, Yue, everyone…”

Kaori too felt deeply ed into a worried one Looking closer the crack of space was also treht vanish anytiic power, Kaori flapped her silver black wings to head toward the treoing to sink into darkness even now

There was a person who caught her shoulder tightly

“Leave thehthat, Miledy Raisen stopped Kaori with an extreentle voice that ran counter with her tone
