Chapter 388 - Final Lightning and the Divine Spear of Wind




<Author’s Notes>


We received one new review after the last update. Thank you very much. (We also received a review mentioning the connection between this work “Failure Frame” and another one of my work “Sword of Belzebuth”. Thank you for that as well.)



The countless tiny shards of ice exploding around Yomibito.


Only the immediate surroundings had turned into a state nearly like a whiteout.


This being the case, Yomibito should be deprived of visibility———


Having anticipated that, I closed the distance between us.


Thereupon, the ice particles, now resembling a thick fog, scattered.


A katana suddenly thrust out, Yomibito’s strike was a remarkably smooth blow that stripped away all its “presence.”


At first glance, it might seem like a trivial and mundane slash.


However, its true nature was a potentially lethal, extraordinary flash.


Had I not noticed it early, I might have stepped in thinking it was an opening.


[———–……GIYEEEEHHHHHHH……————]


An opening brought about by Itsuki.


Yomibito’s two arms were in a semi-paralytic state due to the <End>’s secondary effects.


They wouldn’t be able to defend———-


They don’t have enough time to do that.


This is the only chance.


(Right now———-)


———-riiiiiiiiiiiip———–


The Divine Spear of Wind, once launched to destroy the Goddess.


I call upon its name……


[—————–< Gungnir >—————-]


Yomibito had mutated right before I could do it and used their newly grown two arms to protect the inside on impulse.


The original two arms were in a semi-paralytic state, unable to defend in time.


(The new two arms were used for defense rather than attacking me…… Which means……)


Destroying the inner side of the outer shell is indeed critical.


“I don’t want to die.”


I could clearly feel such desperate determination conveyed from them.


Loqierra’s prediction was indeed correct.


(That is the core…… Yomibito’s heart……)


Although I wasn’t able to reach the core———


The newly grown two arms that protected the core were destroyed by <Gungnir>.


They didn’t have an impenetrable hardness.


That said, they were almost fully regenerated now.


No———– there seemed to be some damage to the core as well.


Before the carapace covered it, red blood dripped down.


That red puddle still remained on the ground.


It was created by the blood flowing from their core.


I observe the immobilized Yomibito.


(From Yomibito’s current state…… It doesn’t seem like they anticipated such a mutation. If so, that isn’t their hidden trump card…… but rather an accidental mutation——— an evolution brought about by Yomibito feeling a life-threatening crisis?)


If that’s the case, there shouldn’t be any signs or warnings.


That mutation was not a last resort.


Even Yomibito themself was probably caught off guard.


I take a deep breath to steady myself.


In our next clash———– We should definitely finish them off.


We must finish them off then.


[Itsuki.]


[Haahhh…… Haahhh….. ———Ou!]


[It’s alright.]


[ ! ]


The anxious look in Itsuki’s eyes began to fade away.


[It’s still too early to give up. Just don’t think about what comes next for a while. I won’t think about it either. Here———– We will defeat this Divine Servant.]


I then ask Itsuki.


[Before our next attack…… Can you buy us 20 more minutes?]


[Hahh…… Haahhh…… Hehe, if that’s what Elder Sis says…… I’ll do it…… I’m your little sister after all……]


(For whose sake———)


Seeing the blood on my fingers, a thought crossed my mind.


(Right…… I was still thinking about what comes next earlier…… What would happen after this battle. But now, it’s alright…… I’m certain now. I don’t need to think about what comes next. Yes, if it’s her———– if it’s Itsuki, she will overcome it…… She will definitely…… reach our goal.)


Back then…..


When I was faced with the prospect of death from Vysis’ poison……


Itsuki showed the resolve to overcome even my death.


She showed it to me.


Although she sometimes seems incredibly fragile when it comes to me.


[Itsuki.]


(She’s already stronger than I thought.)


She has the strength to rise.



And in this battle———–


(Everything within me is telling me to leave the rest to her.)


She will carry on my will.


She will live on with my spirit.


Continuing to wrap myself in wind, I gaze steadily yet resolutely at Yomibito.


And then, I spoke:


[I’ll see it through, Itsuki———– Our role.]
