An ominous premonition struck Christine as she furrowed her brow. In the distance, Siris lightly stamped her foot.
“Blink.”
Siris’s appearance disappeared.
“… … !”
At the same time, red eyes appeared in front of Christine, who was running away. Scimitars loaded with the power of elements rushed in in an arc. It happened so quickly that Christine’s thoughts stopped for a moment.
“uh… … ?”
In one blow, Christine’s right arm was cut off and thrown into the air. Along with the Holy Light Sword Messiah that was firmly held in his right arm.
A desperate scream erupted.
“Aaaah!”

Siris lightly stretched out her hand. Christine’s severed right arm, dripping with her blood, was guided by her invisible power and approached her.
Siris pulled Messiah out of his severed arm. After grabbing her sword, he casually throws away her severed arm as if he were trash.
“Ah, it’s a good sword after all.”
Siris made a strange expression.
The moment I hold the sword, a strange feeling fills my whole body. Even though it is clearly the first time I have held the sword, I feel an incredible sense of unity, as if it is a part of my body. I could understand Russ’ feelings after obtaining the Illuminator.
‘This is what it felt like.’
Christine, on the other hand, was moaning in pain and anger.
“Ugh! “Ugh!”
My precious right arm is rolling around on the floor. A terrible pain runs down my spine and pounding through my brain. It was pain I had never experienced before. I literally wanted to pass out at any moment, but Christine did not lose her mind.
Hatred as intense as pain sustains her spirit.
“Hey, this elf witch I can’t help but rip to death! “How dare you break my arm!”
Siris smiled while aiming at Messiah.
“Oh my goodness? Now wouldn’t be the time to worry about your arms, right? “I guess I only care about the severed arm and don’t care about the head that will be cut off?”
Siris raises his fierce eyes like a cat teasing the prey it has just caught. Christine was shocked and scolded.
“Lord, kill me!”
Siris’ smile deepened.
“Of course I will kill you. “Please take a test before that.”
‘test?’
Seeing Christine looking puzzled, Siris continued in an eerie voice.
“Now that I have a new sword, I have to see how it performs. Now, how well will this sword cut into its former master’s flesh?”
Siris giggled and swung his sword. In an instant, Christine’s ear was cut off and fell off.
“… … ah?”
It’s so sharp that the pain comes only after the severed auricle falls to the floor.
“Ugh!”
Siris exclaimed with wide eyes.
“Hey, even though you fought that much, you didn’t die at all?”
Siris’ scimitar is also a luxury among luxury goods, but due to a long struggle, its teeth are chipping here and there. However, even though Messiah abused the blade so much, it is still as sharp as if it had just been sharpened. It was as powerful as a piece from the Silver Age.
With glee, Siris aimed at Messiah again.
“Shall we cut off your nose next?”
Christine’s complexion turned pale. Siris continued bluntly.
“Why are they playing around like this when they are doing it too?”
In fact, some members of the imperial army cut off the noses and ears from the corpses of Antares soldiers in order to receive recognition for their military service. It’s definitely not my place to say anything.
However, they also did not cut off noses and ears from living people. Moreover, to a woman, appearance is sometimes more precious than life.
Would you cut off a woman’s nose like that? And it’s the same woman!
“… … “If you’re crazy, you’re really crazy!”
Christine was shocked. Even vicious criminals, who are worse than animals, don’t go this far.
“I’ll make you a beauty, Christine. “Giggle!”
With a charming smile, Siris raises her sword again. This was when a light of extreme fear appeared in Christine’s eyes.
“Calm down, Siris.”
With a soft voice, Siris’ whole body was stained with pink holy light. She inadvertently let out her moan.
“iced coffee… … .”
Before I knew it, Cilan appeared from the forest and was praying.
“Philanense, lead the way to those who are wandering. Please grant them a clear mind and clear intellect… … .”
As the prayer continued, Siris’ mood began to change.
The blood-filled eyes returned to their original shine. The frantic expression calmed down. Life, which had been going crazy, became calm like the sea where the waves stopped.
The madness of Valencia has disappeared.
Already standing there was the calm and quiet Siris, known as the Swordsman of the New Moon.
“ha.”
Cilan asked worriedly towards Siris, who sighed.
“Are you okay, Siris?”
She nodded with a gentle smile.
“yes. Thank you, Cilan.”
“It was worse than usual? “What happened?”
“well? “Has there been a change in the World Tree?”
Siris answered with a hardened complexion.
The World Tree, whose power was once exhausted thanks to Repenhardt’s creation, regained its power over time. As a result, Siris was also influenced by it, and the power of the road element, and the resulting madness, gradually increased.
But nothing has changed since Leffenhardt died.
“I feel like my power has suddenly been amplified these days… … .”

Puzzled, Cilan tilted his head for a moment. But they, who knew nothing about the World Tree, could not know the answer.
Putting aside his doubts for now, Silan turned his head.
“Christine… … .”
☆ ☆ ☆
The most fearful and annoying person in the world is right in front of you. It was someone I didn’t want to see even in my dreams, but it couldn’t have been a good feeling to see someone I knew cut off, covered in blood, and even lost an ear, and was bleeding profusely.
“I was hit hard… … .”
In fact, the person concerned looked at Silan and was filled with emotion.
“Cilan! “You came to save me.”
“… … “That can’t be possible.”
Cilan sighed with a pitiful look on his face. Even in this situation, Christine was Christine. It really doesn’t change at all.
“Ah, I’m sorry. “My strength was too weak to save you.”
Like a grieving heroine, Christine sheds tears.
“You were the one who mourned the death of a small animal. He was a man who showed love even to lowly slaves. I can’t believe you were lured by that evil witch and had to watch this terrible thing happen… … .”
Sobbing, she continued speaking like a heroine in a play.
“I can feel it. “The voice of your soul mourning.”
What are you talking about? Silan and Siris were dumbfounded. Originally, Christine’s words were unexpected, but today, their unexpectedness was especially special.
“No matter how much of a monster it is, you can’t believe you’re throwing away so many lives like trash. “This can’t be your will.”
Only then did Cilan understand Christine’s words.
Now, Christine is criticizing their suicide mission. It’s a really absurd attitude to treat the troll’s life like livestock while criticizing what they’ve done here as cruel, but that’s the kind of woman Christine is.
Christine glared at Siris.
“You evil elf girl! “You’re making my Cilan participate in something like this!”
Cilan calmly refuted Christine’s words.
“Actually, Siris was the one who opposed that action?”
Christine opened her eyes wide in confusion. Cilan pointed to himself.
“I was the one who pushed it.”
Christine looked at Cilan with an expression of disbelief. The Silan he knew never had the personality to tolerate such cruelty. What’s more, he actually took the initiative himself?
“oh my god! How deep have you fallen into the swamp of corruption? My Cilan!”
“There’s no such thing as corruption, is there?”
Cilan responded while touching the star symbol on his chest.
“They won’t die.”
Just then Titima appeared. she shouted as she came running towards Cilan.
“Cilan! “The battle is over!”
Indeed, the fortress was already quiet. Among the numerous corpses of the paladins, the berserk trolls were just standing there blankly.
Everyone is still alive, but it is clearly visible that their vitality is being used up at an alarming rate. Christine threw a cold sarcasm at Titima.
“Did you lead them? You treated the lives of your fellow countrymen like dust and ended up winning. “A truly glorious victory.”
Titima urged Silan in an urgent voice.
“Do it quickly, Cilan! The spell is still working, but it will be resolved soon! “Then they will all die fighting among themselves!”
Christine blinked.
‘What are you talking about? ‘Aren’t they all destined to die anyway?’
“I’m still preparing.”
Immediately, Silan raised both hands.
“Philanense!”
Holy light spread throughout the fortress. The light of Philanence scatters towards the berserker trolls standing like corpses.
“Guide the way for those who are wandering. Please grant them a clear mind and clear intellect!”
It was a prayer I had already heard once. This is the holy spell that Cilan used to calm Siris down.
The trolls’ appearance began to change.
☆ ☆ ☆
The giant trolls shrink in an instant. The thick muscles disappear, the stretched out bulk shrinks, and the original appearance is restored.
Hundreds of monsters disappear and hundreds of old men and women appear again in their place.
“What the hell is this…” … .”
Christine blinked. The berserk troll returns to its original state? It was an article I had never heard of. Well, in the first place, the ecology of trolls is little known to humans, so most of this is probably something you have never heard of.
“Ugh… … .”
“Is it okay?”
