Madman in a Fantasy World

88. ??? event(1)

“·······?”

What’s going on.

Luna, who was watching the battle between the students, blinked and was in a different place at some point.

Looking around, no one was there. All around is pitch-black darkness where nothing can be seen.

“Luke-sama? Yui-san?”

I called the two people right next to me, but there was no answer.

No, I wonder if another place is right in the first place. It’s the same place, so maybe it feels that way. Or that I was hallucinating something.

Honestly, this isn’t the first time I’ve been through something similar to this.

A shady feeling similar to that of demons who forcibly brought out previous nightmares stabbed her body from all sides.

While doing this, there was definitely only one demon with this dirty ability.

But.

‘Luke-sama said nothing happened…’

Luke hadn’t said a word that this would happen.

Nonetheless, the incident happened.

Even if Luke usually does a lot of weird things and sounds, I’m not one to hide or lie when I ask.

If so, that’s something he didn’t know.

In any case, the feeling of being left alone in such a dark space was not very pleasant.

What should I do?

The moment she’s thinking about it.

[What are you so worried about?]

“······!”

Apparently, a voice came from a space where no one had been before.

Right after that, someone walked out of the darkness, unable to see an inch ahead.

Even though it was dark enough that nothing should be visible, there was a strangeness in its appearance that was clearly visible.

And there were other reasons for Luna’s embarrassment.

I had doubts from the voice I heard at first, but it became clear after seeing its appearance.

That… no, it was Luna herself no matter how she looked.

If there was a difference, black eyes were showing where the whites should be showing, and the pupils were not silver like hers, but purple.

Maybe it looks similar to you, I think so.

‘… it’s definitely me.’

How can you mistake yourself?

Its appearance, which seemed to be twins with him, seemed to reflect the image he had when he became a demon.

[Stop thinking and admit it. I am you.]

“······!”

How are you not?

the answer to such a question.

[I’m you, don’t you think you don’t know what I’m thinking?]

“·······.”

I have never been, nor do I intend to become. But it was disgusting to say that the devil was like himself.

Doesn’t it seem like he’s saying that he will be like that too? In any case, if it’s an enemy, all you have to do is defeat it.

Luna immediately took out the dagger from her waist.

[As expected. Our personalities don’t need long words, right?]

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine is laughing like it’s fun. She also drew a dagger.

Seeing that, Luna frowned.

Even though I hate to admit it, it’s because I resemble myself.

As usual, Luna rushed along with strengthening her body using magic and magic using wind.

The other side then reacted in the same way.

What was different from him was that the color of the wind was purple.

But I didn’t care.

The desire to kill quickly and escape this place was like a chimney.

That’s why, immediately after Luna opened the distance, she charged again.

This time, it was a trick to stick together and engage in close combat.

Clinging right in front of Majin’s nose, she swung her dagger.

Then swords crossed swords with the sound of metal clashing.

[Why did you think I couldn’t do what you could do?]

“Kuh…!”

When Luna drew a line diagonally, Mine offset it by drawing a line in the opposite direction.

If you draw a line horizontally, it goes in the opposite direction, and if you hit it vertically, you hit it down.

[I don’t know why you work so hard? You have nothing to lose anyway. There is nothing I want to get.]

He doesn’t talk that much.

Are the personalities not the same?

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine has been talking throughout the battle.

[revenge? It’s over. The noble who gave the order was judged, and the mercenary was killed by Luke.]

Luna wanted to do something, but in the end she couldn’t say anything.

Everything Mine said was true, and the other person was a fake anyway, so it was okay to say anything.

Besides, if you want to say something to Mine who resembles you, you have to bring out your own trauma after all.

If so, it was to lie down and spit.

[Don’t you know why you’re working so hard when you have no family and no reason to live?]

Since Luna already had a history of suffering from nightmares, she did not succumb to such trivial provocations.

In the time to answer, he saved up his stamina and used it to swing his sword even once.

After that, several battles were made, but no damage was done or sustained.

It was because at the same time he attacked, the devil responded with a perfectly symmetrical angle and force.

It’s like playing rock-paper-scissors against a mirror.

It blocks no matter how many times it attacks, and blocks no matter how many times it hits.

As such attacks continued, it was Luna who was at a disadvantage.

The opponent’s stamina seemed infinite and did not show any signs of exhaustion, but Luna’s stamina was not infinite and her magic power was limited, so she began to run out of breath.

That’s why Luna deliberately widened the distance. to take a moment to breathe.

“hahahaha···.”

[Oh, by the way. I have to retract the words that said the same.]

In the ears of Luna, who was catching her breath from a distance, a statement quite different from the statement of Mine, who had been complaining that Luna and herself were the same, was heard.

Luna, who originally thought they weren’t the same, ignored it.

[Because I am stronger than you.]

“······!”

I had no choice but to take a stance urgently in front of Mine.

His breathing, movement, and technique were all the same, so he tried to block them the same way.

“Oops…!”

I couldn’t block it, and my side was cut.

The demon’s movement was a movement he had never seen before, and it was a movement he did not even know.

The Mine standing upside down in the air slashed Luna’s side and passed by.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Maybe it’s a well-made fantasy. I had that thought somewhere in my heart throughout the battle.

I just saw it, so I know.

This isn’t fantasy. It’s a reality.

If this is an illusion, then the person who can create such a thing must have descended from the demon that Luke said so.

What is the strongest thought in Luna’s head right now?

‘…absurd.’

As for when demons and demons were honest, they said they were the same as themselves and only showed the same movements, but now they are showing off different techniques.

It is also a skill that he cannot even use.

[Is it absurd? What do you think Luke would have said if he had heard?]

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine said as if he knew what he was thinking.

If you were Luke… I’m sure you would have said it was your fault that you were weak as fuck. Because he doesn’t look for the factor of defeat elsewhere.

I thought I had gotten a lot stronger by going around together, but I wonder if I was still hunting comfortably in the cradle called Luke.

Perhaps, as Luke said before, the one whose imagination has died may include himself.

[Then, are you done thinking about it now?]

If the culprit in this case died, it was Luna who would win.

So even though it must be the other party who is in a hurry, Mine continued to talk from there as if she was having fun.

As if no one comes to rescue, no one gets out of here.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine’s movements were unpredictable.

She flew through the air by stepping on the air, and was shot down from above as if she was hanging upside down from a tree branch.

“Oops!”

One, two, three, cuts appeared.

Arms, legs, face, red solid lines were drawn.

There was no clear place.

I tried to block it, but there were more attacks allowed than blocked.

Every time I tried, the wound continued to increase.

Now there is no place where there is no wound on the body. It was to the point where I wanted to die first from excessive blood loss if I continued to fight like this.

So, in order to live, you need to focus more.

She switched to full defense.

It was as if he had declared that he would give up the attack.

[Do you think someone will save you if you hold out? Are you expecting Luke to solve it again?]

The sarcasm was lightly ignored.

Even while defending, she kept her eyes wide open and read the opponent’s sword and wind flow.

A wound that continues to grow even if you defend.

When you really want to die if you keep going like this, when your consciousness is pushed to the limit because you were driven to the threshold of death.

– Kang!

She was able to imitate the bizarre movements.

The dagger that Luna held in reverse made a friction sound with the dagger that Mine had thrown out.

[······!]

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine was flustered for the first time.

“Why did you think I couldn’t do what you could do?”

Luna repaid what she had suffered.

A person awakens before the threshold of death.

Wasn’t Luke always like that? People grow only when they are in danger of dying.

Really, nothing was wrong.

In the first place, if that mine can use it, it means that you can use it too.

I didn’t have the talent to copy after seeing it once, so it took me a while to master it, but I managed to catch up to this point.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Making a foothold with wind in the air and leaping. The name of the new technology should be called wolbo (月步).

[yes. I am you and you are me I forgot something obvious Whatever it is! You’re almost out of stamina now and you’re in a mess! In the end, I have to win!]

…It’s definitely literal.

I’m almost using up my magic power. Fitness is nothing to speak of. Rather, even if I stay still, I will die of excessive blood loss.

That’s why, in order to overturn the game in this situation, that demon needed something new of his own that he didn’t know.

She thought about what had happened.

All sorts of absurdities unique to demons that appear out of nowhere without any warning and are sucked into the other person’s space when they wake up.

That’s why Luna herself wanted the same absurdity.

She drew a new picture in her heart.

I created a space of my own and confined the opponent in it, thinking of a space that is advantageous only to oneself and unfavorable to the other.

And there is one magic that makes it possible.

What Luna wants to use is a barrier.

There are several types of barriers depending on how they are used, such as a blocking barrier that controls access from the inside and outside, a detection barrier that searches for a specific target as if it were in an academy, and a battle barrier that gives one’s own advantage and disadvantages the opponent.

The barrier that Luna is trying to create this time is an image.

It is to make the image in the form of a barrier.

It wasn’t difficult to create a barrier. I just need to spread a thin film with magic power.

The image also had an image that was already drawn.

From a certain moment, a bright light fell on Luna’s space.

Reminds me of the moon.

Especially the full moon.

But… something is missing.

A shadow began to fall on the white moon that rose behind Luna.

The shadow gradually became colored from the left and ate the moon piece by piece, then reached all the way to the right side and swallowed the whole moon.

Then, it started to reveal its shape again from the left.

The appearance of the moon shown this time was not a white and beautiful moon shining in the darkness.

A glow of fresh blood, as if someone had painted it with blood.

A creepy red moon rose behind Luna’s back.

[What… What is it?!]

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Mine is perplexed by the technology she is seeing for the first time.

However, Luna had no intention of answering.

Just holding the knife in reverse.

[Yes, I see you don’t know yet! If you can do it, I can do it too!]

That’s right.

so did he

That’s why I don’t give you time to see and understand.

What you’re doing is blinding. The moon he created in the dark was the only light within the barrier.

It was a simple trick to refract only the light from the moonlight towards him, making it appear transparent to the naked eye of others.

It was not a phenomenon that could be created normally, but this place was inside the barrier created by Luna. Here the moon will move according to its own will.

Luna walked quietly. I just walked openly, but the other person didn’t notice.

From the sound of my footsteps when I walk, to the point of killing the other person.

She erased all signs of it.

[I’ll just hold on—-…]

The words didn’t come to an end.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Majin’s neck was already rolling on the ground, and unpleasant purple blood gushed out like a fountain.

“Sigh···.”

After the battle, she sat down to rest with her sword drawn.

The thought of winning relieved tension.

She sat idly and thought as she watched the collapsing darkness.

What should I name the technique I just wrote?

The worry didn’t last long. Because the image you want to show proves it.

Lunar Eclipse.

yes. I hope so.
