Does it have any weaknesses? (Cry)

There is none. Finis is a Spirit of the highest class. Even us Spirit People would have no chance of winning if we fight head-on, not to mention humans. That's a shame, isn't it? (Serene)

Don't it is a shame me, because it is really such a shame. My Imouto is in a heated battle with such an opponent, you know.

Can you do something about it?

Haaah. I will give it a try. It is probably impossible, since it seems to have lost its mind like Miles.

It is quite a long silence before you answer me.

Anyway, it seems like she is willing to give it a try, so I take Serene off my back. As Serene unsteadily stands on her feet, she lets out a heavy sigh and looks toward the place where the battle is taking place.

Then, I suddenly see Serene's expression, and I can't help but be amazed. The dignity she had in the morning has completely disappeared from Serene's expression. Even though her features are the same, how can the difference in her expression make such a difference in impressions?

It was also like this before I carried her on my back, but by the time I carried her this far, it had become even more loose. I am sure the people of Yggdra who know Serene well would be quite shocked if they saw her in her current state. I can't believe that just because she became comfortable, she would end up like this I am so sorry.

Serene closes her eyes for a while and gathers her strength, then slowly opens them. Her eyes are as transparent as before she uses the Relic, and her cherry-colored lips open.

Finis, come back to your senses. (Serene)

Why is it that you don't scream even though you are so far away!

Speak louder. It can't hear you, you know? (Cry)

You have a lot of demands. It is useless anyway It can't be helped, I will move closer until it can hear me. (Serene)

This Spirit People is too unmotivated to do anything. Isn't she over-exaggerating what I say?

Serene sighs for who knows how many times already and slowly starts walking. Even though she probably doesn't have a Barrier Ring like I do, she heads towards that battlefield where dragons clash together without hesitation. Her steps seem to be extremely slow, and I can't see any sign of courage or determination in her steps. I am just watching but I am more nervous than her. While we are engaging in nonsensical exchanges, the battle becomes even more intense. Various kinds of Magic are flying around, dazzling lights and sounds, and vibration occurs. I don't know who used what Magic or how many shots they fired, but it is clearly not a number that would normally fly around in a one-on-one battle.

However, there is nothing more I can do. I make a big yawn, sit there on the spot, and decide to at least support Serene.

Finis of The Demise. It is one of the pillars of the Guardian Spirits that has protected Yggdra for a long time.

This Spirit, refined in the World Tree, the center of all power, rules over the end and boasts particularly high fighting ability among the highest rank of Guardian Spirits protecting Yggdra. It has been many years since Yggdra's warrior challenged the Temple of Origin with Finis and disappeared.

Finis' power is depletion. Even among the people of Yggdra, many people loathe its power to end all life directly, whether it is a Phantom or a Monster. Magi normally borrows the power of Spirits to use more powerful techniques, but Finis is an exception. No one in Yggdra can use Finis of the Demise. That is why Yggdra sent the most talented Magi to accompany Finis. Although it may be difficult to use it, they can fight together.

We had already given up on its survival. A Spirit of the highest rank is an existence that is as close as possible to a god that has transcended life. It shouldn't have disappeared so easily, but since it hasn't returned after so many years, we have no choice but to accept the reality of it not coming back.

However, the Jet Black Dragon rampaging in the distance is definitely due to Finis' power. Although its appearance has changed slightly, there is no way I would mistake it as it is a friend who has protected Yggdra for so long. And it makes sense that Yggdras' barrier has not been activated if Finis is the opponent. Yggdra's barrier isn't made to be activated on allies.

If I was not comfortable, I would have been stunned by my former comrades standing in front of me.

But now, I have the leeway to accept reality. freeweb novel.co m

Even Miles lost its mind and swallowed me. It wouldn't be strange if Finis bared its fangs to Yggdra.

As I have told Cry, I don't feel like I could stop Finis at all. Stopping it by force is out of the question, and if Finis could be rational enough to listen to my words, Finis wouldn't have gone berserk in the first place. The Spirit's power is dangerous to the forest, and the Spirit itself understands this.

I let out a small sigh as I continue to walk.

Haaaah. Lucia Roje has terrifying skills Moreover, her opponent too. (Serene)

My eyes are special. Something that the royal lineage of Spirit People has passed down through generations. The eyes of Yggdra's Royal Family, which have refined my aptitude as a Magi in exchange for Mana Material-related talent, can see through all the powers swirling in the world. By looking at the flow of power and its color, I can tell everything about a Magi's ability and what technique they are planning to use.

The flow of Lucia's power is as strong and stable as a mighty river. Her chanting speed and power are perfect, and even among Yggdra's Magi, there aren't many who are as powerful as her. In addition to her Mana Materials enhancement, she must have also studied a great deal.

However, the person she is facing is not ordinary either. I am not talking about Finis. There is one person who is hiding behind Finis's immense power and is using its Magic. And that person is no ordinary Magi either.

A cold, enormous power that doesn't allow any of its emotion to be felt. As long as it is used by intelligent creatures, Magic reflects the conditions and emotions at the time when it is used. I can see through the disorder in Magic, but the Magic used by Lucia's opponent does not have that. If Lucia's Magic is like a great river, her opponent's Magic is like steel. The countless offensive Magics unleashed without any change in its emotion exceed Lucia's in power, speed, and precision.

It is probably the Phantom of a Magi who came from the Temple of Origin.

Most of the offensive Magic released by Lucia is offset by the same Magic, and the support from Starlight (Hoshi no Serai) is shot down by Finis and does not reach them.

Now then, I said I would try But what should I do?

If we can do something about Finis, the Magi would become manageable. But it is almost impossible to beat Finis. Finis hasn't used its full strength yet. The only way to defeat Finis of the Demise is to send out a Guardian Spirit. MilesMiles of the Birth should be able to fight fairly well even against Finis at its full strength.

However, I have no intention of sending Miles out now. As a member of the Royal Family of Spirit People, it is outrageous to pit Guardian Spirits against each other and to begin with, Finis surpasses Miles in combat. If the two collide, it will not end smoothly. If destruction is inevitable, I want to at least keep Miles safe.

Now that I have closed the distance to a dozen meters or so, I once again raise my voice to Finnis and the others who are engaged in a fierce battle.

Finis, come to your senses. (Serene)

I try to say this with all my heart, but Finis and the others show no signs of stopping. If they would stop fighting just because I told them to stop, they wouldn't have fought in the beginning, so this outcome is, of course, obvious.

In the first place, since Finis and the Phantom Magi are fighting together, Finis is probably being used by the Phantom Magi. That is something impossible for Yggdra's Magi.

Will that human tell me to do something about them? If he has a Divine Strategy, I wish he would tell me what to do about them.

My power is one of the best in Yggdra, but it is still impossible to subdue Finis. In the first place, how could a Spirit People who lives and dies according to the flow of nature win against Finis, who is nature itself?

I take a deep breath, sit down on the ground, and hug my knees.

Although I am aware that something is wrong with me, I am still comfortable at this point. The feeling of euphoria that swept through my entire body the moment I put on the Relic still hasn't disappeared. I am sure if I look in the mirror now, I will have a peaceful expression on my face.

When I listen carefully, I hear Cry's voice cheering from behind me, saying, "*Ganbare, ganbare* Do your best, do your best, Serene!", I am glad he is supporting me, but he really is a messed up human being.

If you have time to cheer for me, I wish you could stop Finis like you did when you brought Mires back to its senses.

That is when I noticed something.

By do something about it, are you telling me to attack Finis and wear it down to bring it back to its senses? (Serene)

True, if Finis comes back to its senses, we might be able to fend off that Phantom Magi. But it is absolutely impossible.

Even now, Cry's ability to bring Miles back to its senses seems like a miracle. I heard the principle behind it from Starlight (Hoshi no Serai) and I could kind of agree with it, but the conditions are too strict. Even though I can see Magic and Mana Materials, I have no idea how long we have to wear Finis down before it regains its senses. I really wish someone could tell me how that human was able to do something like that.

The battle between Lucia and the Phantom is only intensifying. Yggdra's townscape is already in tatters due to the exchange of magical attacks. Most of Yggdra's residents have already been evacuated, so there is no need to worry about casualties, but it will take time to repair the damage.

Thanks for reading! Cry in cheerleader mode, too bad there is no picture of this. And Serene really did a 180 on her personality. By the way, I added the illustration for chapter 344.2 et 345.1.
