People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

Just at that moment, Malicus endured the huge force coming from his chest and swung the black sword, leaving a fine cut on his waist which was strong and hard as pyroxene.

It was just a little bit short of breaking his kidney.

Looking at the ominous black and red flames spreading from his waist where the black sword had slashed, his brows furrowed involuntarily.

Although this sword did not take his life directly, he could still clearly feel that this destined death was eroding his life.

Fortunately, now that he has called back the sun, he is no longer the one who needs external forces to drive the solar law. The damage of this thing is no longer as terrifying.

Now, according to the classification of life science at the junction, he has completely escaped from the category of human beings and entered the realm of gods.

So, theoretically, you can still take a few more sword strikes.

Thinking that he could still withstand a few more sword blows, he suppressed his discomfort and extinguished the death flames on his body. Facing the half-dead Malicus, he smiled and said, "What? Is that all? Is your foolish dance over, beast?"

It was not known whether his ridicule had any effect or Malicus had recovered his breath.

This guy actually stood up again slowly.

Although his mouth was almost burned and his once proudest fangs had been burned to ashes, Malicus smiled like him.

Exhaling hot air, he drew out the black sword again.

It was clear that the beast was at the end of its rope.

Reinhardt had almost won this battle.

But the more times like this, the more he cannot relax, because he knows that this old guy must have other cards up his sleeve.

As the shadow beast of [Eternal Queen] Marika, it is definitely not just these two moves.

"...Malika.....Malika.....Malika..."

Like calling, Maliks kept repeating Marika's name. Although the voice was not loud, it still reached his ears clearly.

"...Is it impossible to go back to the way things were? Marika..."

The moment the words fell, an extremely ominous aura emanated from Malicus's body.

The violent breath blew his hair, forcing him to be on high alert.

What does this guy want to do next?

While he was guessing what Malicus would do next, another sentence popped into his head:

"Boss, he's going berserk..."

"...My name is Gulang! Death is with me!!!"

Suddenly, Malicus went crazy, the muscles in his arms suddenly became stronger, and he tightly grasped the hilt of the black sword and slashed wildly in the air.

"I will never let the destined death be stolen again!"

shhhhh--

Countless black and red arcs swept across the ground, depriving all life wherever they passed and turning everything into dust.

At the same time, Reinhardt also raised the long sword in his hand and slashed out arcs at the same frequency. The crimson arcs left cracks on the ground so deep that they could be seen into the clouds.

The scene was as if the US launched countless intercontinental missiles and all of them were intercepted.

The black and red colors collided with each other and exploded in the center of the temple, annihilating each other. The remaining energy formed brilliant particles that turned into dazzling fireworks.

But this is just the beginning.

At this moment, Malicus stopped chopping and instead threw the black sword in his hand towards the sky, and Malicus rushed out.

Leaving behind a series of afterimages on the few remaining open spaces.

This speed was impossible to catch even in Reinhardt's eyes.

left?!

He turned his head suddenly and swung his sword subconsciously, but all he hit was a shadow.

At the same time, I felt a gust of wind blowing past me. While my hair was still being blown up, another strong wind came from the right.

Swah——

Another subconscious slash, but still missed.

What speed is this?

This was the only thought left in Reinhardt's mind. He simply couldn't keep up with this speed.

Even though he had just thrown a blow like that, it was just a punching motion. Even he couldn't do a running movement like this.

However, before he could react, Malicus' figure appeared behind him, raising his sharp claws and bringing them down fiercely.

Beast Claw!!!

The iron claws tore through the air and swung down with an impact that was enough to tear everything apart.

All this happened in a flash of lightning.

But this time, he had no way to avoid it, and he didn't even have time to open his prison uniform, allowing the sharp claws to fall on his back.

hiss-

In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere. This claw not only broke his armor, but also scratched his back, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere. The whole person staggered forward a few steps.

The impact that had not yet dissipated was rampaging in his body, and his whole body seemed to be shattered.

Taking advantage of this gap, Malicus jumped high, caught the black sword from mid-air, and chopped it down hard on his body.

"damn it..."

Looking at Malicus falling rapidly, he couldn't help but swear.

Is this thing really seriously injured?

This was the only thought left in his mind at this moment.

Boom——

Just like Berserker unleashing a powerful blow, the black sword that fell to the ground completely shattered the temple. The broken temple ruins floated in the air, and the only intact landing point left was the road leading to the temple exit, which was less than five meters in range.

"it's all over..."

Malicus said as if relieved, and slowly stood up. The black sword slipped from his hand as if it had lost its strength, and the red and black flames on it were completely extinguished.

"Yeah, it's all over."

The sound coming from behind made Malicus open his eyes wide. Before he could remember to look back, he felt a burning sensation and pain in his body.

Looking down, I saw a sword blade like charcoal piercing from its chest, and the blood trying to flow out was instantly evaporated into nothingness by the heat.

puff-

Long sword, drawn out.

"...Malikus, you are defeated."

Malicus turned around and looked at Reinhardt who appeared in front of him, his golden beast eyes full of disbelief.

Reinhardt, who appeared before him, had no scars on his body except for the sword strike he had just made in the opponent's abdomen.

....How is that possible?

He really wanted to ask this, but it seemed unimportant anymore.

Malicus was no longer able to fight, and he was probably unable to even pick up a sword.

"It's time to get going, Maliks."

Reinhardt didn't stop for a moment. He slowly clenched his palm into a fist and dropped it to the ground, while his other hand raised the long sword high, just like an athlete would do when throwing a discus.

At the same time, the Zanka sword also changed its shape, gradually forming the shape of an axe, and the light and heat it emitted were like the sun.

"...Is this what death smells like?"

Malicus stared blankly at the sun, muttering softly.

Having devoured many dead roots, it smelled the breath of death.

That was its destined death.

Swah——

The axe swung down suddenly, cutting through his body, sliding from his shoulders to his waist.

With a thud, the upper body slid down quietly and fell to the ground.

With only half of his body left, Malikus stared blankly at the blue sky where debris was floating.

"Malika, I'm sorry... I broke my promise..."

"The Golden Rule...is difficult to restore..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Malicus closed his eyes forever, and his body quietly burned and turned into ashes.

A pure black body, terrifying beast eyes, a black sword filled with the breath of death...that terrifying body burned out and disappeared like the last firework that bloomed briefly.

The burnt ashes drifted away into the distance.

And a touch of flowing gold merged into Reinhardt's body.

Until the last moment of her life, Malicus still thought of the innocent little girl she once was.

What a happy time those were.

However, everything can no longer go back to the way it was before...

"Goodbye, beast."

Reinhardt dropped a broken twig from his arms. The broken twig passed through the gap and fell from the floating city to the clouds, as if mourning the existence of Malicus, until it disappeared.

This twig was a talisman given to him by someone once - a sacrificial twig.

Today, it has completed its mission.

Thank u....

"Fallen leaves bring a message:"

"...The Death Rune has been released."

"The death of [Black Sword] Malicus has spread the fate of death across the borderland."

“But the same fire that burns burns the sting of rejection.”

"It's time to say goodbye, Junction."

"Reinhardt, the king who opens up a new era, you must succeed..."

Malycus was defeated.

But no one knew who it was.

Withering away like a lonely dead leaf, returning to the dust.

Everyone at the border only knew that the destined death had returned, and the fate of death spread throughout the border like wildfire, and death returned to everyone's fate.

Those dead borns who wandered around the border area encountered the absolute fate of death. Bathed in the sunlight, their smiles suddenly disappeared like ice and snow, and they returned to the earth.

The destined death that was once taken away has now returned.

But for some people, this isn't such a bad thing....

For example, Lienia at this moment.

The town in front of the Rhea Lukalia Magic Academy suddenly erupted in cheers like a volcanic eruption.

The sound that shakes the heaven and earth belongs to the people living in Menqian Town, as if telling of their new life.

Unlike people in other places in the border area, the people here have long since brushed off the dust of ignorance. Through the knowledge spread by Seren, they know everything and understand their own situation. Facing the fall of the Golden Dynasty and the return of destined death, it can be said that no one is happier than them.

No longer need to be held hostage by the blessing of gold.

No need to live that half-dead life anymore.

No more wandering around the border area as a zombie.

You can look up at the sky as if you were looking into the future.
