[‘Sword’ Saint]
“Elysium… why the fuck are you here…” Shangarula frowned as he looked at the two-horned man—Elysium.
Then Elysium plainly told him, “Of course, to bring you back.”
“Ha, and then punish us for ignorin’ your order?”
“I planned no such thing, I merely judged that any more fighting would be unproductive. You should have fully understood the youngster’s capability. There is no more reason to stay here.” Elysium said calmly
But of course Shangarula wasn’t dissuaded. “Haa!? There ain’t no more reason to stay here, you say!? Of course there is, you fool! I got done in terribly, y’know!? There ain’t no way I’m gonna fall back like a coward!?”
“Then will you use ‘Beastification’ and continue fighting him? It’s still evening—not your domain. Withdraw, otherwise—I will kill you.”
“Gh…!?”
Shangarula flinched due to the overwhelming feeling of intimidation Elysium had released.
Although it wasn’t directed straight at me, I too felt some degree of ‘pressure’.
That man named Elysium—he must be incredibly strong.
And seeing the tachi hanging on his waist, he was no doubt the ‘Sword’ Saint.
Just then.
“…Tsk.”
Shangarula clicked his tongue while relaxing his fighting posture before walking towards Elysium dissatisfiedly.
When I looked over, Boreios had also put away his Sacred Treasure and was standing quietly next to Elysium.
Looked like they were really intending to withdraw.
But I couldn’t silently let them go just like that.
I asked Elysium, who was about to turn around, “What on earth is your purpose? You guys are saints, yet why are you disturbing harmony?”
When I did, Elysium turned around in our direction and said, “Our purpose is the eradication of mankind—and the creation of the new world of only demi-humans.”
““““““—!?””””””
The eradication of mankind…!?
“Which is why we, as saints, eliminates the ‘filth’ of the world that is humans. The dwarves’ overgrown technology, too, is unnecessary in the new world. We will have them perish when the time comes.”
“How could you decide that arbitrarily!? What do you take life for!?” Magmell screamed, unable to hold herself.
“…Life?” Elysium raised his frowned, “Do you humans even have the right to ask us about that? You humans who have ruthlessly taken countless lives?”
“T-that’s…”
“Oh right. I suppose you haven’t done such a thing personally. But the folly of humans as a race is beyond the scope of what can be overlooked. Hence why we will exterminate mankind, and bring peace to the world.”
“I see. I’ve well understood your basis. True, mankind is stupid. I’ve beat up other humans for my own interests, too. From outsiders’ perspective, I may look like a selfish and unseemly woman.
“But,” Arca kept her sharp gaze trained on Elysium, “what you guys are doing is selfish and stupid as well. What is the way to describe the act of rejecting all humans including the innocents other than sheer folly?”
“Well said. However, just the fact that they are alive make a human a sinner. Hence, no human is innocent.”
“Oi, that old man must’ve a screw loose, don’t cha think? Words can’t get through him at all.”
Zana sighed and agreed with Ophir who had given her a look of amazement. “Yeah. They’ve long past the level of being persuadable. They’ve completely firmed their resolve.”
“Mm, I think so too.
“But,” Tirna asked Elysium with a somewhat doubtful face, “why do you look so sad?”
“……What?”
“I can feel very deep sadness from your eyes. What are you sad for? Is it for destroying humans?”
“I see. If I remember correctly, you’re the mixed child born to a mermaid and a human, aren’t you? Do you inherit your sharp sensitivity from your mother?”
“I don’t know. But that’s what I felt. So answer. Why do you—”
At that moment.
“—You spoke a little too much, lass.”
““““““Wha!?””””””
In a blink, Elysium moved behind Tirna.
He then tried to swing out his tachi at her but,
――Clang!
“…You think I’ll let you!?”
“Hou?”
Of course, I went in between them to protect Tirna.
