Chapter 347.1: Withering One ④

Every second feels like a minute or tens of minutes. Anthem, who is looking at my compatriot lying on the bed, nods.

Umu Your friend is weak, but there is nothing wrong. They1 know are just unconscious, I am sure they will wake up soon. (Anthem)

Thank Thank goodness. (Serene)

Anthem Onii-sama Is talking. (Tino)

The place where my compatriot is brought is the Magic laboratory built adjacent to the workshop where Sytry is manufacturing the device. It is one of the safest places in Yggdra and also serves as a hospital. The building, which is built by hollowing out a large tree, is itself a form of Magic and has the effect of dramatically increasing the healing power of Spirit People.

Hearing what he said, my legs lose their strength and I sit down on the spot. Maybe the Magic has worn off, before I know it, the euphoria that has filled my entire body has disappeared. However, I do not feel like recharging the Relic right now. This is a dangerous Relic. At that moment, something important was lost in exchange for comfort.

The compatriot who emerged from the Phantom has a face I have never forgotten even for a moment since they went missing.

One of the greatest Magi in Yggdra. One pillar of the Guardian Spirits and one of the people who challenged the Temple of Origin to save Yggdra along with Finis.

The first signs of the World Tree going out of control appeared about 300 years ago. Although it has only recently gotten this bad, there have been many people who have challenged the Treasure Shrine. From the best to the bravest ones, they disappeared. The person sleeping in the bed right now is one of Yggdra's heroes who took on the challenge at the very beginning when the first sign of the anomaly appeared.

Although not as deep rooted as me, they are also a member of the royal family.

I never thought you would be alive Sage. Ruin Saintos Frestel. (Serene)

Ruin has their eyes closed and is sleeping without answering. But their heart is certainly beating.

My compatriots who challenged the Treasure Shrine were all strong. They all took on the challenge, prepared to die. Although we can be proud of their determination, we cannot be sad that they did not return. That would be tantamount to insulting the path they have chosen. Therefore, I have never cried over the death of my compatriots.

However, when I look at that nostalgic appearance, my chest tightens and my breath is caught in my throat. Until just a few hours ago, I had never even hoped for such a miracle.

Sytry, who has been observing me with a serious face, *pan* claps her hands and asks with a smile.

Now, could you please explain to us what happened? I want to understand what happened. (Sytry)

What happened you say, this is something that I would like to ask. All I did was step onto the battlefield and raise a small voice. I did not use Magic, nor did I summon the courage to do so. Of course, I did not even expect Ruin to emerge from that Phantom.

"I, don't know anything. However, Ruin is one of Yggdra's heroes who once challenged the Treasure Shrine. Ruin appeared after the invading Phantom had been defeated. Now that I think about it, Yggdra's barrier did not activate. That was probably because the Phantom was not just a Phantom. (Serene)

Looking back, there were clues about it. Yggdra's barrier is not something that can be so easily broken through, even if you are a Phantom from a Level 10 Treasure Shrine. When I learned of Finis' intrusion, I realized why Yggdra's barrier had not been activated. However, if the Phantom had been a regular enemy, Yggdra's barrier would not have allowed it to pass through.

There was no way Ruin could have been alive. Ruin went missing 200 years ago. Ruin, a Spirit People, and Finis, a Spirit, have different livelihoods. Spirit People cannot live without drinking or eating. (Serene) freewe bnovel.com

We also saw the moment when Lucia's spears pierced them through the Mirror of Reality. I did not expect a creature to appear from within the Phantom that had been defeated, as expected from a Level 10 Treasure Shrine This is unprecedented. (Sytry)

That's right. It is unprecedented. Even the records of the previous destruction left behind in Yggdra did not mention such a thing. However, it is said that the type of Treasure Shrine that appears in the World Tree changes every time.

We are lucky to have a compatriot back. Although they have not woken up yet, Ruin is a better magician than me in some areas. They will be a strong ally. Then, Eliza, who has been silent until then, speaks calmly.

The conditions have changed. What's important is There might still be more. More Yggdra Magi in the form of a Phantom (Eliza)

!! (Serene)

What she says catches me by surprise and I look up. Why didn't I think of it? She is right. Ruin is not the only Yggdra warrior who challenged the Treasure Shrine and did not return. Until now, not a single corpse of anyone who had challenged the Treasure Shrine had been found. In other words, it indicates the possibility that there are still some of our compatriots trapped in the Treasure Shrine.

Our priority is to resolve the World Tree's rampage. I understand that. However, all of Yggdra's warriors are first-rate Magi. If the number of warriors increases, the number of people who can be mobilized for Sytry's plan should also increase.

Liz slams her fist into her palm and smiles wildly.

Yoshaaa, now it's getting interesting. What? If we beat the Phantoms, they will turn back? I left the best part to Lucia-chan last time, but now it feels like a game, so isn't it getting fun? (Liz)

O-Onee-sama No wayTo say that facing a Phantom of this level is like a gameNo, it's nothing (Tino)

This is an opinion of a Hunter who isn't afraid of god. Apparently, even if their opponent is a strong enemy, it doesn't bother them at all. Judging from the fight earlier, I don't think it is going to go as well as they sayBut as I am confused whether to call them reliable or to stop them, Uno, who has a serious look on her face, trembles and says.

It's probably not enough to just defeat it. You need to strip away the power of the PhantomI I saw it. At the moment when the black arrows repelled by Unrestricted Creation (Bansho Jozai) absorbed the Mana Materials that made up the Phantom's body, its existence chaaanged. This is my guess, but I think that the Phantom and the one inside are partially fused togetheeer. (Uno)

The essence of the power of depletion is absorption. It sucks the life out of plants and causes them to wither. It makes Magic disappear by absorbing its Magic power. It can also kill Phantoms by absorbing Mana Materials. What she says is credible. Indeed, with Finis' Magic, something like that would be possible.

The problem then is that depletion is a unique spell that only Finis possesses. Partly because it is considered a taboo, there is no similar spell in Yggdra. Lucia, who has fought Finis's power up close and successfully repelled it, says with a frown.

"That spell It is something even I have never seen or heard of. I think It would take some time for me to recreate it. (Lucia)

Also, when we searched the surrounding area, the Phantoms were nowhere to be found. Maybe they are lurking inside the Treasure Shrine There are too many things we don't know at the moment. (Eliza)

Eliza puts her hand on Tino's head and lets out a small sigh.

The Treasure Shrine is currently protected by a barrier. It is impossible to break in and I don't think we can challenge the current Temple of Origin head-on and win. The Phantom Army that attacked Night Parade (Hyakki Yako) was only a part of the Shrine's strength. Do we lure them out or invade them? What should we prioritize first? The situation is definitely getting better, but the prospect of regaining what we have lost makes me more nervous than happy.

The glimpse of hope that we finally got to see may disappear depending on our future actions.

My heart is beating strongly. If I recharge the Relic, will I feel more comfortable and have better ideas?

Syt, I will start manufacturing the device right away. I have gotten the hang of activating Magic simultaneously We need a lot of them, right? (Lucia)

Yeees. We also need to break Luke-san's curse as soon as possible (Sytry)

Then, shall we go investigate? Now we understand the How-to too If we find a suspicious Phantom while exploring the ground, we should just drag it away and bring it with us, right~? The one who can't bring it in the most will receive a penalty game, okay? (Liz)

Thanks for reading! Looks like Serene cannot forget about the feeling she had when Perfect Vacation was activated. Will she recharge it and become comfortable in exchange for her pride and dignity!?

As the gender is still not confirmed, I'll leave the gender ambiguous and put they.
