33. Decisive battle (3)

It was like taking a light walk.

While everyone was very nervous, Yan stopped in the middle, not knowing if he had arrived.

“Hey ♡ Do you remember what I said? Curiosity will kill you.”

Einheri was still half-leaning on Legarete.

The sight of Legarete’s neck clinging to the monkey’s hand as if it were a human lock with the sword draped over it looked desperate.

“From the looks of it, it looks like he is alive because he can’t die.”

The helmet was half-broken from the impact of cuts all over the body. It was red, so it didn’t show much, but the feet were already soaked with blood.

What’s more, the side effects of drugs cause the body to sag.

It must have been a body that had collected only the worst of the worst.

It wasn’t Einheri’s strong will that was holding on to the string of consciousness that she was about to let go of. Ironically, it was the side effect of the drug, like ants crawling all over her body.

“Witch?”

Le Galette frowned at her and tried to swing her hand, but it stopped as if it were tied to her invisible thread.

“It’s not a bad magic, it’s a martial arts trigger… But who taught it, I have a really bad hand habit than I thought~”

Jan flicked his fingers lightly, and Le Garette’s fingers turned around and bent in the wrong direction, before locking themselves on the back of her hand.

It happened without any time to react. Of course, the magic didn’t activate.

“It’s only at the level of entrance magic”

Wooddeuk

Not only did her finger bones twist in units of joints, but her wrists were also bent backwards, completely sealing the means.

Legarete, who had dealt with countless people, was being defeated without using any power.

It’s like looking at a stuffed insect stuck on a pin.

At the same time, Ein Heri’s arm, which had been tied to Lega Lethe, floated up above her, then untied and flew toward Yan.

Her arm, revealed through the cut clothes, had thick purple bruises, no doubt how strongly she hugged her.

I just forgot about it because of the strong analgesic effect of the drug, but there was no way the price for demonstrating the ability to transcend the limits of the body could never be cheap.

Einheri’s body, seen by Yan up close, is literally at the level of a walking general hospital.

The muscles responsible for large movements, including the femur, had already melted in half, and even breathing was not working properly due to the irregular heartbeat, and blood leaked out between the torn muscles following the beat.

“Ugh, I feel bad, such a lousy body, stupid, garbage♡”

“…Do I really have to say that in a situation like this?

“An idiot who can’t even do one thing properly?”

As he watched Einheri go silent because he had nothing to say, Yan spontaneously burst into laughter.

What a stupid employee.

If you didn’t listen to what they said and ended up like this, if it were someone else, you’d just leave it alone…

Looking at that tired face, I couldn’t leave it alone.

‘A waste of money…!’

The destructive power of a single drop of blood flowing from the forehead down to the temple was indescribable.

“As expected… I heard you did well…!”

”Yes?”

How can you like such a stupid face?

“Well… I’m not without responsibility for this incident.”

Jan was partly responsible for Einheri opening it beforehand without telling it to William White.

She sent Einheri away, trusting only the seal that was kept from being opened until she entered the mansion.

Who opened the box Marnie was not a consideration.

The fault of the employee was also the fault of the president, so Yan also had to take responsibility.

[Kieack!]

When the monkey’s hand, which had been hit hard by the holy sword, continued to make strange noises, Yan swiped it once with his index finger.

“You made a noise about the subject of using up all your magical power.”

It was an insignificant act of drawing a large crescent moon from right to left, but the result of that action was by no means simple.

Damn it.

The sky split open behind Legarete, who stood there blankly.

Everyone stared blankly as the membrane blocking the inside and outside of the city was incapacitated with that single action.

The sense of alienation created by the scene where the paladins dispatched from the church and even Hayden, who relied on the protection of the Mage Tower, couldn’t do it with just one gesture.

As the curtain that surrounded the city was shattered, fantasy and reality were mixed together.

Except for the false pasts that Legarete had created and the members of the Mage Tower who had not been contaminated by dealing with the mental contamination in advance, all of them covered their heads and sat down on the floor.

“Ugh…”

“Wow wow…!”

Memories caused by mental pollution flowed out like an ebb and flow, and confusion was added to the memory void, and the brain could not withstand the momentary overload.

The most affected were, of course, the members of the Alliance.

Since they had been in direct contact for nearly an hour and even engaged in combat, and in addition, they were cognitively manipulated in real time, so what should I say?

Surprisingly, the damage to civilians was not great.

Since the alliance implemented isolation through spatial separation early on, only one witch has disappeared from the memories of civilians.

In an instant, in front of Yan, who broke the power of the monkey’s hand, there was Legarete, who was sitting down.

A slowly twisting bridge, as the lies were revealed and the truth began to surround it, it began to return to its original state.

A feeling of helplessness as well as pain overtook Legarete, with her legs weakened by the cane.

All efforts to change the future by changing the past have gone to waste.

“Ha…hahahahaha!”

It was just futile.

“Dreams are originally futile, did you think you would never wake up from a dream?”

What comes after a happy dream is only a terrifyingly hopeless reality, especially if it’s the result of unlimited wishes made without thinking about the future.

Everything has a price.

Legarete’s body was slowly drying up from her extremities as well as her legs.

The end of the man who extracted enormous magical power at the cost of his life was Mok Nae-i (木乃伊).

The monkey’s hand had completely lost its power before he knew it and fell to the ground.

“So is this the end?”

Hayden came over and picked up the monkey’s hand that had fallen to the floor.

The dried and twisted figure is clearly different from before. To think that it is like this without even being able to make a third wish, I ate it.

“It’s not over yet, is it?”

Yan quietly pointed to the sky.

The magic circle of the rising sun, exposed to everyone outside at the same time the curtain was broken.

“aaagh! The magic tower explodes tactical weapons in the city! Dom Hwangcha!”

Those who were waiting outside the city were busy running away in a panic at the ancient magic gin that appeared out of nowhere.

I don’t know if it would be useful to run away if it actually explodes anyway.

In addition to the magical power of the monkey hand, the magic circle created by absorbing the life force of Legarete, which had been blown up, was not at the level of blowing up a quarter of the continent like before.

Maybe half of humanity will disappear if you’re not lucky.

It wasn’t just an explosion, it was the result of considering the aftermath that the magic would cause.

It was rather fortunate that half of them survived because the empire’s granary would burn in an instant, and the ecosystem itself would be completely destroyed by the heated sky and earth.

Despite such an unprecedented disaster, the world is quiet because of Yan’s existence.

Absolute belief that if it is Yan, the guardian of the Devil’s Edge and one of the five witches, it will be possible to deal with it.

Hayden, who knew all too well the dangers of the rising sun, remained silent.

Although it was affected by the breaking of the barrier just a moment ago, it was disturbed, but the auto-completion function created by Legarete pouring a huge amount of mana instantly restored it to its original state.

Because of the distraction, the time span was only about a minute, and if Yan hadn’t appeared, she might have exploded right away.

“Maybe it would be better to dismantle everything and throw it in the air.”

Due to its enormous magical power, the aurora borealis, which can only be observed from the north, may be visible from the central continent for a while, but isn’t it a better option than exploding?

“Alternatively, there is a plan to repurify it well before it explodes and put it back in your hand…”

Considering the empty monkey’s hand, re-injecting magic was an option, but there was no need to take that risk.

However, one person had a different idea.

“Please insert it again.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to one place.

And there was Einheri, barely standing up with shaky legs.

**********

f*ck f*ck f*ck

I did such a crazy thing to enjoy some kind of wealth and glory.

After the drug’s analgesic action was gone and he was tossing and turning over the pain brought on by welfare, Legarete caught his eye.

The sight of him slowly drying up every time he gasped for breath, as if he were only consuming moisture while still alive, was so horrific that some of the wizards of the Mage Tower and some of the members of the Alliance squinted their eyes and turned their heads away.

Along with the sense of relief that everything is over, an unknown emotion that had settled in a corner of my heart was stabbing me like a thorn.

The things that happened because of my wrongdoing have come this far.

Looking around, all I could see was a half-collapsed city.

Few people may have been injured thanks to the space gap that the alliance spread, but it won’t be 100%.

Considering the first aftermath that erupted when riding in the wagon, it was not strange at all if there were casualties afterwards.

The fact that the person buried in the rubble was saved with the help of those around it could have been simply because he was noticed.

It was too optimistic to think that there would be no one else in the building where the class collapsed.

Mistakes are irreversible and regret is always too late.

But, if… Very just in case…

“Alternatively, there is a plan to repurify it well before it explodes and put it back in your hand…”

Yan’s blunt words instantly struck a thought in my head, like a flash of lightning.

A monkey hand held by Hayden.

[THE MONKEY’S PAW]

-Old Monk Magic Caught As Users Three things Make a wish Make it come true Give

-However, , Results About He No one Assured Can’t Can’t Can’t

Number of uses: 1/3

-Power Notably Not enough Status, Make a wish Fulfill Line Normal Status No.

Clearly, all the squares that were painted black when I first saw them were filled in.

Maybe it happened because I was too weak to function anymore?

[Time left until rising sun explodes 00:51…50]

Unlike the exploding time that kept flowing, the battle time remained static.

[Battle time 00:59…59…59…]

I could vaguely guess the cause of the time not passing any more.

Legarete, who was the boss, was near death, and his monkey hand was in a state where nothing could be accomplished.

But the boss wasn’t dead yet, the third wish wasn’t granted, and the monkey hand wasn’t completely destroyed either.

Although the three conditions were all twisted and complicated, the danger of a prosperous sun still remained, so the situation could not be ended.

It’s like a kind of bug that happened because things happened that couldn’t happen at the same time.

If Yan destroys that hand as it was originally intended, everything will end like this… But something in my heart stood up.

I can’t let it end like this.

The fact that the battle wasn’t over also meant that there were still opportunities left.

[A chance to try again]

And the chance to make a wish on that hand.

“Please insert it again.”

“What?”

“Can you put that mana into the monkey’s hand again?”

“You bastard, do you think of that mass of magic as a water balloon that you can easily insert and remove at will? If you do something like that, you’ll end up in a mess like a crappy body♡”

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think so…

“But Yan ‘sama’ is possible, right?”

“Wow…!”

For some reason, Sun Ji Yan stepped back with his face blushing.

Slowly, step by step, I grabbed Yan’s hand.

This was all I could do right now.

I think it will be possible if it is ‘Yan’. Isn’t that the case with only five witches in this world?”

“Huh, you say something quite mouth-watering about a crappy subject, it doesn’t matter if you say the obvious truth like that!”

It’s nothing, but it looks like he’s just shaking his hand with joy at such a compliment.

“What would you do if you put mana into his hands again? There’s nothing you can do, right?”

“I will make a wish. I want it back”

“…Do you think of making a wish after seeing that?”

Legs and legs as if looking at a mummy, dry skin cracked like a rice field in a drought, and the only evidence of being alive pointed to Legarete, who had only faintly exhaled breath.

The end of the man who made a wish in the monkey’s hand.

But that’s why I had to do it all the more.

“All of this is my responsibility.”

It happened because I mishandled the box, so if it could be undone, it was right to undo it.

“Yan-sama, if you put magic into your hands again, I’ll grant you anything you wish for.”

“What, anything?”

Gulp

“Yes, anything. Anything I can do.”

Whatever.

“Da, just wait!”

Yan quickly withdrew his hand and gestured toward the air, and a magic circle that was as solid as a lie began to unravel.

No, it might be better to break it rather than unravel it.

It was like watching a niece and nephew break down a Lego set that his uncle had painstakingly made.

“Tsk, it sounds like a b*tch who lost her mind.”

Hayden was looking at me disapprovingly.

“Well, even if I return my magic, normal results won’t come out. The hand itself is already half broken. It might be good news for you.”

“Why is half-broken good?”

“They will scatter as soon as you make a wish so you won’t have to pay for it.”

“…But there’s no guarantee that your wish will come true.”

Low risk low return.

“So what, do you wish to turn back time? Unfortunately, that’s impossible. Didn’t I tell you before?”

“It was about whether entropy can be reversed.”

Apparently, the monkey hand couldn’t answer that question.

“What I couldn’t accomplish even when I was perfect, if I tried now, I would just lose my pick.”

It was a conundrum that no one could easily answer.

However, in this world, I was able to give an answer to that answer.

The monkey hand just tried hard to answer the answer given to it, but it wasn’t that it lacked ability.

Perhaps, if one more condition had been added to Hayden’s question, he might have answered it.

“Entropy can be reversed.”

“It’s done, crap!”

When the mighty mana that had been scattered in the air in an instant was put back into his hand, the dried and twisted figure returned to its original form.

A very ominous appearance as seen in the first box.

“Should I keep my promise?”

“Yes, I will.”

Actually, it’s just a bunch of blank checks.

The hand I received wriggled as if trying to get away from me.

Do you even remember cutting yourself?

I asked a question to such a hand.

“Can entropy be reversed?”

At the same time, the hand stopped moving.

The feeling that the hand I was holding was gradually getting hotter. As Hayden and Yan posed as if they were about to intervene at any moment, I added an additional condition.

”Can entropy be reversed with the help of a goddess?”

I had a miracle of turning back time with the help of a goddess called Achievement Points.

The living evidence of entropy reversal, which returns to the past every time you die, was asking questions here.

The conditions are met, so give an answer.

[…..]

[…..]

[…..]

[…..]

[…Entropy can be reversed]

“What..!”

When Hayden, who seemed shocked, appeared as if he was going to jump at me at any moment, he quickly made a wish towards the monkey’s hand.

“Then send me back three hours ago.”

Back to the point where it all started.

Back when I did something wrong.

Before receiving the box from Yan.

Before meeting Yerica and Floren at the plaza.

Sending me back to before Le Garette became her witch.

It was a wish and a journey to do so.

[…The wish came true.]
