“Chapter 195: Closure”

– Impossible. You should’ve fully disintegrated when I used you as a shield.

Septe’s eye became so big that it popped out of its socket.

Her only remaining eye was staring at a familiar cold.

– That should’ve been the case, yes. We tried our best to stop you from landing on this planet, yet we failed. However, thanks to my master, I am now standing in front of you.

Moonlight took a step forward.

– I’m here to put an end to this.

– Kh…

And Seventh took a step back.

He’s not afraid of any weapon from this world. But the one weapon from another world is standing in front of him.

– Has it not been enough? Both you and I have far overstayed our welcome on this planet. It’s time for us to leave.

– SHUT UP. SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP.

Gritting his teeth so hard that they were chipping, Seventh tried to make a run to escape.

But Tilchina and Kouya restrained him with dark chains.

– AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH LET ME GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

– Yeah, sure, let me just set you free. And we were supposed to be the idiots, huh. Yo, Zeze.

– Heh… Do you think you can entertain me for a bit, you little worm? Raise.

– Gwoh!?

A field of dense gravity formed around Seventh.

– Ahahahahaha!!!! Come on, didn’t you want to run? Run free! Heya! Raise! Raise! Raise!

– S-Stop! (Seventh)

– I think it’s time we finish this. Master? (Moonlight)

– Right on time. My restrictions wore off. (Takaya)

The casts made by Ernika broke into pieces, meaning that my magic circuits were fully healed.

I feel even stronger than before. I can do this.

– Let me ask you one last time. This is the end, right?

– Yes. Akane is doing her best, but we must hurry, while I still have some shred of reasoning left.

I touched Moonlight’s blade.

Just like with the Trident of All, if I reduce her durability, I can amplify other aspects.

As she first promised, after this strike, Moonlight will be no more.

– …There is a message I would like you to relay to Akane. Would you care to listen?

– Hm? What is it?

– “Do your best”. That’s the message.

– That’s it?

– Yes. I believe that suffices.

With those words, the Oni descendant took back control of her own body.

– Pwhah. Even for a few minutes it’s hard. Takaya, are you done talking?

– Yeah. I’m not sure why, but she wanted me to tell you to do your best.

– …I see. Thank you.

Akane’s cheeks blushed. To me, it was a simple message, but I’m sure it had a special meaning for the two of them.

– I’m done working on the blade. The rest is up to you.

– Alright. Get back.

Akane took a stance to draw the sword.

Moonlight is no longer reflecting light. The sword is completely invisible.

It can no longer cut life from this world. It can only cut magic and magic circuits.

– S-Stop… STOP TH- [Princess, please, don’t let them-]

– FAREWELL, MONSTER. (Akane)

– WHY, SISTER? (Seventh)

– Shimazu Art: Null Sword.

With a completely inaudible slash, Akane pierced right through Septe’s left eye.

Moonlight’s objective has been fulfilled.
