The Great Sword is not the Main Body!-Chapter 77: Rest (6)

“Come in.”

The door opened with a squeak, and Hephaestus, wearing a fur coat with snow piled up, came in.

“Whew... Sister Noah... is she still?”

“Oh, it’s Hephaestus. Yeah... she’s still sleeping.”

Another week had passed since the equipment was completed.

Noah was still sleeping.

“There’s... no problem, right?”

“Yeah. There’s nothing wrong. That’s why it’s even weirder.”

Noah, who hadn’t woken up for nearly a month, was in perfect condition.

Her breathing was still regular, and her complexion was the same.

She didn’t show any signs of losing weight, and the side effects of the elixir that Yuria had mentioned didn’t show up on the outside.

One thing that had changed.

Magic power had started to flow into Noah’s body.

Originally, there wasn’t a single grain of magic power in Noah’s body.

But. After about a week since Noah fell asleep, a small amount of magical power began to linger, and now it has become much more magical power than that of ordinary holders.

First of all... I think Noah's body fell asleep like this to adapt to the magical power...

I don't know.

Starting with me, Yuria, Charlotte, and Levuse.

I looked through all kinds of books and asked for advice, but they said that I've never seen anything like this anywhere.

"Have you eaten?"

"I brought it to eat with you, Rubia. You haven't eaten anything since yesterday."

"I... I guess so. I don't have an appetite..."

"But you have to eat! If you don't eat like that, Rubia will collapse."

Hephaestus, who wiped his eyes, put down the basket in his hand and smiled bitterly.

“I brought some jelly just in case... I should bring it again today...”

“Hehehe... You don’t have to bring it. There’s a lot of it here, too.”

“Wow... Is that all jelly?”

“Yeah. There’s a lot?”

Charlotte and Yuria also bought jelly every time they came to check on Noah, so there was enough jelly to cover half of the window.

Half of it was me, but...

“Anyway... It’s gotten really cold. It’s snowing more and more.”

“Ugh... So. Aren’t you cold, Unnie? I’m cold even when I come in...”

“Hehehe... Come on, hold my hand.”

“Huh?”

Hephaestus hesitated and reached out his hand.

He took her hand and sent a little divine power to warm her up.

“Oh, oh! It’s warm!”

“Right? It’ll last for a day or so. Take off your coat and make yourself comfortable.”

“Yeah!”

Hephaestus, who had coolly taken off his coat, opened the basket with a bright smile.

“Ta-da. Master’s signature sandwich!”

“Wow... This looks delicious?”

“Yeah. There’s a bit of grass in it... But it’s still delicious. All of these are good for your health, so Unnie told me to eat them!”

“Phehe... Okay. Then I’ll have to eat them.”

I didn’t have an appetite... But since she made it for me...

I picked the thinnest one out of what seemed to be about fifteen sandwiches.

Hephaestus’s expression seemed dissatisfied.

I looked at my younger sibling’s expression...

I bit into the sandwich.

“But... Urspher will be hard.”

“Why all of a sudden?”

“No... Unnie, Master... and the princess can use magic, so it’s no problem. People like me who can’t control magic freely have a hard time when it snows so much. Slippery... and useless protection, but what is it that I can't use my magic as I please...”

Hephaestus, who clapped his hands and stuck his mouth out, turned his head again to look out the window.

“Pheh heh... That's true. It's unfair.”

He nodded and took a bite of the sandwich.

This time, it was a sandwich with nut cream.

It was delicious.

He swallowed the sandwich in his mouth with coffee and opened his mouth.

“But... I have to understand this much snowstorm... It's the aftereffect of Tyrant's seal.”

“Yeah. Even though it's sealed, it's still hitting this hard... If I were to be released... Ugh! I don't even want to imagine it!”

Hephaestus crouched down, shivering as if the nightmare of Karpeng had come to mind.

I patted Hephaestus on the shoulder and picked up the next sandwich.

After repeating this a few times, it was over in no time.

“It was delicious, Hephaestus. Tell Yuria-sama that I enjoyed it too...”

“Yeah!”

In the end, I ate it all.

I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat since I hadn’t eaten in a while... but I ate it all without leaving a single bit.

“Then, I’ll go now. Get some rest too, Unnie! You’re not sleeping, are you? Unnie, you have really dark circles under your eyes right now. Do you know that?”

“T-That’s right...?”

I couldn’t feel it with my hand, but I unconsciously put my hand under my eyes.

“Actually... I’m lying. I just tried it once. It seems like you’re really not sleeping.”

I smiled proudly as I saw Hephaestus smiling awkwardly.

At first, I could tell that even Unnie was a little uncomfortable, but now I couldn’t feel it at all... so I felt a little better.

“This guy... What. Okay, let’s go quickly. I’ll take you.”

“Huh? Hey... No. I’ll go alone. Unnie, stay next to Noah.”

Wrapped up in his coat, Hephaestus smiled and opened the door.

Rattling- rattling-

At the same time, the wind, which had gotten stronger, began to knock on the window.

“I think it would be better to take her.”

“...Oh, it’s okay. I’m not a kid... I can go by myself.”

Wriggling- Hephaestus forced a smile and left before anyone could stop him.

When he heard the sound of footsteps getting farther away, he got up from his seat and looked out the window.

To at least watch Hephaestus leave.

*****

Three hours later.

The blizzard got stronger.

It started blowing like crazy.

The snow falling from the sky, riding the wind, turned into fog and covered the city.

The waves were so strong that the buildings right in front of him were invisible, obscuring everything.

The wind, which made it impossible to walk without using magic, pushed people’s bodies away.

The city began to see missing people.

The first victim was.

Hephaestus.

*****

The wind was so strong that it was hard to open my eyes.

I raised my head with my divine power.

“Charlotte!”

This is already the third time.

Even though I called Charlotte’s name three times, she didn’t answer.

My voice was buried in the wind and couldn’t be heard.

I had no choice but to shoot my divine power at the back of Charlotte’s head, making it soft.

Only then did I stop walking and approach Charlotte, who turned around.

There was no snow around her.

It seemed like the snowstorm was avoiding Charlotte because she was surrounded by fiery magic.

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

I also heated up my divine power, but it didn’t have the same effect as Charlotte.

“Charlotte! What about Lady Yuria?”

“I don’t know! I’m looking for Hephaestus! She went out alone! You crazy bitch!”

He grabbed Charlotte’s arm as she clicked her tongue and walked forward again.

“Charlotte! Can’t you shoot fireworks into the sky? My divine power is hidden by the blizzard!”

Charlotte tilted her head for a moment, then realized what he meant, and immediately shot fireworks into the sky.

The fireworks that rose into the sky spread in all directions, not losing to the blizzard and showing off their presence.

The intention was that we were searching this way, so we should go to the other side so that we don’t overlap.

For someone as skilled as Yuria, this blizzard wouldn’t be a problem, so he meant that we should spread out and search.

I wish you understood properly...

“Okay! Charlotte! Now I’ll go to the other side, so shoot often!”

“Okay! Be careful!”

He smiled at Charlotte and started to turn right.

Just walking around, shouting Hephaestus’ name.

It seemed like 6 hours had already passed.

About 13 hours left...

There shouldn’t be any problems.

I shook my head and shook off useless thoughts.

She’ll definitely be alive.

I also gave her divine power.

She was good at avoiding the shadow remnants scattered by Kalt.

She should have easily avoided this much.

She wrapped her divine power even thicker and moved forward.

About half a day had passed like that.

Behind the fog.

I could see tree roots rising into the sky with a loud noise.

At the same time, flames rose from the same place.

Did you find it?

I turned around and walked urgently toward the flames.

After walking for about 20 minutes, Charlotte’s flames came into view.

It was right in front of our hideout.

He ran almost like he was running.

“Charlotte! I found Hephaestus... huh...?”

Yuria is sitting on the ground, holding a rock.

Charlotte is holding the rock with a vain expression.

The rock that Hephaestus treasured.

Yuria made it.

The rock that he said could tell whether each other was alive.

The rock.

It was in Charlotte’s hand.

And, it was in Yuria’s hand.

The rock that Hephaestus should have.

It was here.

Yuria’s trembling eyes look at me.

Charlotte’s lost eyes wander in the air.

What is my expression right now?

What kind of eyes are in my eyes?

Are I shedding tears?

I don’t know.

But... ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) I can’t be like this.

I took a deep breath, held back the tremors of my body, and approached the group.

If you are reading this translation anywhere other than

Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.

I used all my divine power to block the blizzard’s invasion, even if only for a moment.

And then I spoke quietly.

“First... let’s go home. Let’s go... and fix it and go find it again.”

Charlotte stared at me with blank eyes.

And shook her head.

I clenched my teeth and denied Charlotte.

“No. She’s alive. Definitely.”

A little light returned to Yuria’s eyes.

“Yuri-sama. Let’s go in quickly. Let’s go and stretch our bodies and come out again. We can find her this time. Where... I think she’s in the house I can see right now. Hephaestus... That kid could definitely do that.”

“Right... right? Even though that guy... is blind... he has a sense of humor.

... Sure, definitely alive...”

“Yes. I think so too. Charlotte. You come in too. Let’s each decide on a direction, decide on a range, and then come out again.”

I raised Yuria’s body and grabbed Charlotte’s arm.

I opened the door with all my might and came in together to the top floor.

After leaving Yuria with Charlotte, I headed to my room to check on Noah’s condition.

Just in case.

If Noah wakes up... I’ll be able to find Hephaestus right away.

It’s a bad thing to expect unconditionally...

But right now, I can be a bad thing as many times as it takes for Hephaestus.

The moment I opened the door.

“Huh...?”

The scenery outside the window caught my eye.

It was clear.

The blizzard that had been raging like crazy until just now had disappeared.

No. It hadn’t disappeared.

They were gathering in one place.

He moved his gaze along the direction.

To the top of Karahan.

A magic circle that seemed to draw the sky.

A small sphere floated in the center.

All of Ursphere's eyes gathered on the small sphere.

It was growing in size.

The sphere, which had grown bigger and bigger.

Covered the sky.

And.

The magic circle, reversed.

The sky.

It poured down.

It collapsed.

It collapsed, flowing down the mountain range.

It flowed and flowed, creating ripples in the mountain range.

The ripples settled and became waves.

The waves became tidal waves and rose.

That's how the tidal waves rose and became the sea.

The sea became a disaster.

It descended on the world.

Avalanche.

Can I dare to express that disaster with human language?

An indescribable white disaster is approaching.

If this continues, Ursphere will surely be destroyed.

There is absolutely no way to avoid it.

Where is Hephaestus?

Yuria and Charlotte... and with my powers, can I stop them?

How on earth do I...

No.

First, move.

I shook off my fear and turned my back.

And.

“Huh...?”

In that spot.

“Hello, Rubia.”

Clear red eyes.

The person I had been waiting for so long.

“No, ah...?”

“Yeah. It’s been a while.”

He was looking straight at me.

“I have a lot to say, a lot to tell you... and I want to eat all that jelly that’s piled up there.”

Noah.

Stands up from his seat.

“It seems like there’s no time.”

And.

Towards the new greatsword that Hephaestus made.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen... but when it’s all over.”

Straight.

“Would you like to talk to me?”

He walked.

“No... right...?”

“Yeah.”

Noah grabbed the greatsword.

“Something... something’s wrong-”

“It’s okay.”

And then, he smiled.

“Um, Hephaestus... Do you see the blue roof over there? He’s shivering inside. So hurry up and take care of him.”

A disparate smile.

“Tell him thank you for the greatsword.”

Pitiful.

“I’m so glad that the person I ‘saw’ as soon as I opened my eyes was Rubia.”

Mournful.

“Then, I’ll go.”

A sad smile.

Noah turned his back and went outside.

He went out and went down the stairs.

The sound of his footsteps grew distant.

He couldn’t hear it anymore.

He turned his head and looked out the window.

Covering the sky.

Covering Karahan.

Trying to erase Ursphere.

The avalanche.

Death.

The disaster.

Cracked.

That day.

Humanity.

Not a challenger to God.

But a challenger to God.

Witnessed the first and last 'opponent'.
