Chapter 268 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [39]Chapter 268 Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [39]
After Bacchus-san entered the world of the soul, a certain amount of time flowed by.
(It’s kind of a strange feeling.)
Two massive spiritual powers collide violently in the depths of my chest.
Black, angry, evil spiritual power – this is unmistakably Zeon.
And on the other hand, a pure, divine spiritual power a lot similar to Rose – this is surely Bacchus-san.
(For heaven’s sake, please finish safely without incident.)
When I was wishing for that in my heart,
「Ka, ha…」
Bacchus-san’s huge body shook violently, and collapsed.
「B-Bacchus-san… Are you okay!?」
「Ba-Bara, ra… T-This much is, no prob–… gaha…」
He vomited a lot of blood and stopped moving.
(T-This is bad.)
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPerhaps Bacchus-san was killed by Zeon in the world of the soul and suffered severe mental damage.
That seems to have become a trigger, and the “incurable disease” started deteriorating.
(Let’s just try and see if it works.)
I covered his whole body with dense darkness as emergency first aid. However, there was no sign of his condition stabilizing.
(Damn, it’s no good after all.)
Zeon’s darkness has an absolute effect on external wounds and curses, but it has no effect on disease.
In other words, this vomiting of blood is most likely due to Bacchus-san’s chronic disease.
「Rose, over here! Come right away!」
I called out to Rose loudly.
「What’s the matter? What’s going–?!」
She trotted up to me. When she found Bacchus-san lying on the ground, she hardened on the spot.
「…G-Grandfather!?」
Rose immediately turned around and looked somewhere. And then she breathed a sigh of relief.
「Haa, thank goodness…」
Ria and the president asked her as she breathed relievedly.
「I-Is he okay?」
「I don’t know the details, but wouldn’t it be better to take him to the hospital right away?」
Rose then slowly shook her head.
「No, there is no need for that. Grandfather used to be called “Immortal Bacchus”. As long as he “doesn’t exhaust his power” or “die instantly”, he will never die. Sorry for worrying you and thank you for the consideration.」
She bowed her head slightly.
「But Allen. What on earth happened? Did his condition suddenly deteriorate?」
She then asked while tilting her head.
「No, actually…」
Then I told her everything from the start without omitting anything.
「So he fought Allen’s spirit core, huh.」
「I’m sorry. If I had stopped him properly, this wouldn’t have happened.」
Fighting Zeon one-on-one is just suicide.
No matter what Bacchus-san said, I should have stopped him.
When I was regretting my decision,
「No, I’m the one who is sorry. It seems that grandfather has asked for something unreasonable from Allen again. He has always been a person who finds joy in fighting since forever, after all. If he sees a strong swordsman, he has a bad habit of persistently insisting on them for a fight. I’ll be careful not to let this happen again in the future.」
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRose said apologetically while sighing.
It seems that she has her own troubles too.
And when things came to a pause,
「Oi, Zeon. I expected things to end up this way since it’s you, but this is a little overkill, isn’t it?」
When I said so in a slightly scolding tone, his deep voice replied from the depths of my chest.
「You damn shitty brat, that’s my line! Don’t send me that troublesome thing again, you got that? A”a!? And don’t get involved with that senile old fool! I don’t know where he got his information from, but he seems to know about my circumstances a little.」
「Your “circumstances”?」
「Tsk. It’s still too early for you to know that. Quietly go do practice-swings or something.」
Zeon said so and broke off the conversation on his own.
As always, he’s really selfish.
(However, this is really rare.)
He always speaks in a tone of looking down on others and doesn’t pay respect to the opponent he crosses swords with.
Rather, he calls them small fry and whatnot. and hurls abuses at them.
(However, he called Bacchus-san a “troublesome thing”.)
In other words, Bacchus-san put up a good fight to the point where Zeon felt “troublesome”.
(Bacchus Valencia. The man who was once hailed as the “strongest swordsman in the world”.)
He is no ordinary man after all.
