526 The Day God Gave In.
526 The Day God Gave In.
Come to think of it, that was the first time Felicia had seen something decent called combat.
When my mother took me outside the Order, the very act of fighting was not carried out in the first place.
Though I had encountered demons, my mother used some means to put them right to sleep.
A battle-like battle never took place.
Felicia herself never saw the battle during the years she moved into the Witch Forest, and from time to time she or she listened to her sister, but to that extent.
With all that happening, in Felicia, the thing called combat was something to be avoided, only the perception that it was even horrible.
And you can't even say that's a mistake, though.
Fighting is not the same as killing each other, but that's almost synonymous only with what's happening on the spot.
Those who know are hurt, tormented, and killed at their ends.
It makes sense that I don't want to see such a scene.
At least in Felicia, that was the definitive future.
I was helped earlier, and it's not like I don't believe in Soma.
But that's not the problem.
The fears that continued to be imprinted from an early age were such that they easily swallowed up those pale emotions, and from the signs of bloating and enrichment, I could only feel the scent of death.
So even on the back of Soma, who headed towards the Forest God with unfathomable words and laughter, Felicia could still only feel despair.
I think I should have died there honestly without wanting to live, etc.
I don't really think I can do anything about it in exchange for my own life, etc... but if I did, at least Soma would have helped.
Looking at that back, I thought about it - as if laughing off such bullshit with my nose, the next moment, about a third of it, whether fifty meters would be there, disappeared so easily as to be careless.
And that doesn't end there, and in the next moment, even the other half disappears.
It was like God smashing the toys he was tired of unconstructively.
"... Yes?
Indeed, Felicia has never seen battle properly.
But it's just that I've never seen it, and I don't know it.
And at least I know to such an extent that I can see how unlikely it is that it was caused in front of me.
Therefore, it was only natural that a grunt leaked out of his mouth.
Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that I did something that I don't really understand Soma.
Rather, what Soma did is extremely simple.
What the Forest God showed us earlier is something that is difficult to describe.
Soil, sand and numerous plants gathered in one place and pushed hard, shall we say?
It stood there because it was about fifty meters in size, and countless things, mainly plant-based, were grown from all directions, neither on the arms nor on the tentacles.
Even demons keep their form as minimal creatures.
But even ignored it, which is exactly what we should call a monster. That slapped its countless tentacles on the soma that came towards itself.
It was such a simple thing that it did, and so was the soma against it.
He swung the sword in his hand out toward the front, on the verge of his tentacles being slapped.
That was all it was.
Only then would a third of the body of the Forest God have disappeared in the next moment.
There's nothing strange about what you've done.
but the phenomenon that happened for that matter was only meaningless through wonder.
It is also evident that that is not the suicide bombing of the Forest God, etc., as soon as Soma continued to wipe out the sword, the other half disappeared.
I mean, Soma is just waving his sword, causing all that.
I have no idea what that means.
But it wasn't until that long that Felicia had thought about it.
Doesn't mean the Forest God did something...... no, is that right in a way?
Perhaps he just didn't intend to harm Felicia to the Forest God.
Because there is no such thing as a lover of things that cares about roadside stones.
??????????
Perhaps, but it was roaring.
The sound wasn't recognizable.
Naturally, I don't even know what you said.
But at that moment, only the will was clearly conveyed.
It was destroyed in an instant the shape it created... it must have been its wrath.
Or maybe it was a feeling, including before that, of why I get in my way.
But whatever it is, it is clear that it was caused by it.
Felicia clearly recognized that her heart had stopped beating.
"... Huh!?
I can't breathe, I open and close my mouth, but I never get air coming in from it.
And this is probably just the aftermath.
thats where it got bumped up is soma...... no, maybe it just simply wielded anger in the first place.
I didn't mean to do anything with it, but I still do all this.
Oh, God is still God, no matter what he looks like, defying it, let alone thinking that he might be able to defeat--
"- It's weird, crumbs. At least speak in human language."
That was never something shouted out loud.
On the contrary, it must only be small enough to whine.
Even so, for some reason, Felicia heard it clearly.
The heartbeat that had stopped resumed and the breath became inhaled… just like them, all of the body of the remaining Forest God disappeared, as is normal.
??????????
The scream slammed in again, but this time it never stopped wondering, breathing or heartbeating.
Or maybe because what was contained there wasn't just anger.
It was a surprise and… maybe a fear.
??????????
But if we do not acknowledge it, the body is instantly reconstructed with the cry.
It was taking some time earlier, but so you got the hang of it, next time it's a flash.
And it's about 50% bigger.
"Oh man, just making the figure big would only make the aim bigger. I don't know if you can't tell. Is this the god Modoki?"
Moment after moment, with a wave of soma, all of that disappeared.
It is just a blow to say that the earlier one was looking good.
As for Felicia, it was time for her to pass by and become frightened.
"... from one incident when I was a dragon, I knew it wasn't just..."
Apparently it was just really meant to be.
Well, I'm talking about how it's more impossible to predict this.
And in just a few moments, even Felicia could understand it.
Perhaps… which power is above.
There is no way that Forest God could understand that... but maybe it was the will or something that never gave in there.
The fact that there is some will in the Forest God, and that it is more advanced than that, is something we don't even have to think about now.
Whether or not what underlies that thought is based on the same value standards as ourselves is yet another story… it is only then that we will know what will happen if we relate to Soma any more.
But it never pulled.
Maybe it wasn't even possible that it was still at the stage where I was looking at things...... at least I don't feel that way about Felicia.
Because the will to be screamed and tapped right after was mixed with fright, no matter what you think.
??????????
You've learned that creating a body just breaks in an instant, only things like tentacles grow innumerable from the ground, and they strike soma all at once.
Felicia, who sees it from a remote place, also knew at a glance that each and every one of them has the power to fear.
Or maybe the force that was used on the body earlier is used directly there.
Felicia would die lightly just because she felt the fear and anxiety that would make her heart eagle just watching, and perhaps pointing that one at a distraction.
But Felicia never actually worried about it.
I think that could kill Soma.
The reason for this is simple.
When you look at them coming towards you, Soma sighs boringly -
"Better than earlier... don't you see the difference in power yet? Well, we'll just keep going until we figure it out."
Because when I let myself leap, I slashed all of that as a matter of course.
There is no danger there, on the contrary I even feel spared.
Tentacles grow and strike with impunity where they are swept away, but their ends remain the same.
Slashing all of that without difficulty, Soma just exhales a sigh of sigh like a fright.
From there on forward, it was as if it were just a phantom of repeating the same thing or even watching it in a play.
Even though some ideas are mixed from time to time, there are only a few ways to attack tentacles.
The basics are just tapping, sharp ahead and trying to stab or roll, but the difference is to that extent.
The angles and speeds at which it is done change, sometimes wrap up, sometimes time difference, but all of that is pointless.
They slashed the whole thing, and Soma barely even moved off the spot.
It's just an overwhelming difference in power...... I just felt like that wasn't the only reason it was happening to Felicia.
There's no question about the power difference.
The question is somewhere else… I mean, you don't have to imitate it like that.
There is an overwhelming difference in power, so you just have to settle for it.
That's one of the reasons I said it sounded like a play.
He even looks as if he's boasting, and even feels uncomfortable there.
Because somehow, Soma doesn't look like the type to do that.
Or soma is undoubtedly the type only interested in profitability.
If I didn't have to...... or even if I did, I wouldn't like the extra imitation.
Then why are you doing that now?
"... I guess that means you need to, but... do that and what does it mean to Mr. Soma...?
To show myself for a moment, the stupid thought of, etc. is past my mind, but it's really just a stupid idea.
There's no way that's possible.
Damn, if I'm too unconscious about anything, I exhale a sigh like scolding myself - so I'm late to realize that.
At the edge of his vision, he reacted to it small, and turned around, and what was there was something familiar.
There's no way I don't recognize you.
Because it's the same tentacles that are still hitting Soma.
However, its size would be less than a tenth.
But at the same time, it's too much to kill yourself to that extent.
I was immediately convinced why I abruptly took this one.
Forest God is not interested in Felicia anything.
That's what I decided if I killed Felicia, Soma would be upset.
Felicia didn't even know if that was right, but it wouldn't be a bad decision.
At least, there's no reason not to try.
And when I found out about those things, there was nothing Felicia could do.
It's a mistake at the time of thinking, whether to put it in place or not.
There's no way to get him involved.
It is also a mistake to ask Soma for help.
Before you make it or not, because that's the only way to get in Soma's way.
In other words, the conclusion is one.
At the end of the day, you don't have to change your end of the line.
"- I see. Apparently, you'd rather die than die."
Moment after moment, my heart jumped.
The voice is heard right from the side, and at about the same time, the tentacles that were heading this way disappear without a trace.
On the contrary, even the ground that was ahead of it had been quietly decided and blown away.
A clear voice reaches Felicia's ear, sounding as if it represented the mood of those who caused it, but still undisputed by its sound.
"If that is the case, then my life will not shy away anymore. If I get too much momentum... well, I'll just have to apologize to everyone then. Pray for luck."
Even though she knew it wasn't herself to whom the voice was directed, Felicia felt comfortable.
No, or... maybe because I knew.
To the anger put in there...... just a little, to have something against me.
Maybe Soma was angry that he gave up his life and didn't even try to call for help more than anything.
I'm sorry about that, and... and remember something like just a little tickle -
"- I will wear heaven and be a blade that crushes the earth"
With the vague feeling that this would be the end of it, Felicia just had a jittery view of Soma's arm swinging down at the edge of her sight.
