Chapter 150 Mystiltain (12)
“Are you telling me to believe that bullshit?”
Pielot speaks in an unpleasant manner.
However, Hypnos’ face remains unchanged.
As if he expected me to say that of course.
Still, it’s as if nothing changes.
[Pielot. Why should I come now and tell you a lie? I am only answering your questions.]
“There is no guarantee that all prophecies will come true… … !”
[Last Ragnarok.]
Hypnos interrupted.
[Moirai already knew the outcome at that time.]
“… … !”
[Ragnarok fails, God wins and makes a contract with humans. Moirai has known this for a long time. The reason why humans and giants cannot defeat gods is not a matter of strength. Moirai, their existence determines everything.]
“contract… … ?”
Pielot asks questions about unfamiliar words. This was the first time he heard the word contract.
Hypnos said.
[After God’s victory over humans, they guaranteed humanity’s survival, but instead made humanity forget all memories of the past. If we have memories, humans and giants who will challenge God again will appear. Then, he gave divine powers to humans with potential.]
“That’s a contract?”
[okay. It is now called the ‘humanity contract’. It is a contract made so that humans need God, forgetting God’s duality and limitations and relying on them.]
“If you give divine power to a person with potential, then that too… … .”
[okay. Moirai is telling me.]
In other words, Moirai knew everything.
The consequences of Ragnarok, the human contract, and what kind of human beings are born with what level of talent. So, the gods go to the humans they like among the humans selected by Moirai and grant them divine powers.
This system has continued to modern humanity and created numerous powerful people, including Zodiac.
[Pielot, Moirai’s prophecy is absolute. Stop the meaningless fight.]
“… … .”
Pielot closed his eyes.
He doesn’t know much.
How much of what Hypnos says is true now, or is it all true or false? He was not the type of person who moved to acquire information like Frontier.
“… … Even so.”
Therefore, Pielot’s thoughts are simple.
“I will cut down God.”
[…] … Is that because this is what Frontier wants?]
“no.”
Pielot is Frondier’s disciple, but not everything moves according to Frondier’s will.
Rather, Pielot only showed aspects that Frondier did not expect.
Even before he met Frondier, Pielot was already a genius like no other on the continent.
According to Hypnos’ words, Moirai and the other gods already knew of Pielot’s talent, and that is why Hypnos chose Pielot.
also,
“All you know is that I will survive?”
[…] … All mankind dies. Except you,]
“Then where am I then?”
[…] … .]
Hypnos kept his mouth shut.
Pielot grinned.
“Good.”
His spirit is slowly rising.
Those eyes, that posture.
It’s the same as when I faced the demons.
[Pielot… … .]
Pielot had just heard that he was the only one among humanity to survive.
Does that mean you can survive if you abandon everyone and run away?
dare.
How dare you say something like that to anyone?
“So while I am cutting down all the gods, I am still alive.”

The moment I saw Hestia and the unicorn carrying her.
Frontier’s judgment was clear.
“Selena!”
As soon as Frontier called, Selena got on Hestia’s back and sat on the unicorn’s back.
Hee—ing—!!
The unicorn ran at high speed.
If you look at just speed, Frontier flies faster.
However, Selena cannot keep up with that speed, and it requires a huge burden of continuously using Shadow Transfer.
In other words, if Selena’s safety is guaranteed, Frondier has no hesitation in making a move.
Whiik!!
Frontier flew into the sky.
A few winged figures blocked his path.
Whether it’s an angel or a god, Frontier doesn’t know.
weaving, black cloth
Greatsword clad in black flames
Suddenly—!
I don’t know what it was, but Frondier started cutting down things in front of him.
“aaah!”
“Ahh!!”
Frontier moves forward at high speed with the front clear. But winged things continue to gather from all directions.
Some of them are blocked by other gods who protect Frontier.
And some,
divine magic
Power of the Twelve Gods
area of the hearth
Access was prohibited by Hestia’s magic.
Flames surrounded Frondier as if guiding it down a path, and the gods could not overcome the flames.
Hestia’s furnace is not hot. Rather, its original ability is to raise the level of everything contained within the furnace.
However, the furnace has no forgiveness for those whom Hestia rejects.
“Fuck it!”
Some of them fearlessly cross the realm of flame to test the power of one of the twelve gods.
“under! what! “Not hot at all,”
And then it falls from the sky.
They were embarrassed to see their bodies suddenly tilting.
“No, why is this! Ugh!”
Then I soon realized.
There are no wings on his back.
Try putting some energy into your body. empty.
Use your aura to raise yourself up. no use.
I try to create any magic that comes up with mana, but all I get is a rustling sound like a lighter without oil.
“uh… … ?”
They started to fall like that, without a big deal.
Hestia follows Frondier as a unicorn and casts a cold gaze at those who fall.
—Don’t cross the line. Miscellaneous people.
Just like that, they lost their wings without much notice.
The moment was so uninspiring and dull that despair struck me faster than it could.
puck! Flutter!
My head was hit and crushed on the ground.
They became subhuman and could not even overcome gravity.
“Frondier!”
“Hestia!”
Frondier matched his speed with Hestia’s voice.
Hestia shouted.
“Hurry up! “I can’t hold you back for long!”
“Why are you helping me?”
“I’m not helping you!”
Hestia shook her head.
There was determination in those eyes.
“I want to get everything back the way it was!”
“… … !”
Frondier opened his eyes wide for a moment and then nodded.
He is now heading to Hestia’s Judo. If his eyes were not mistaken, he was now getting closer to Olympus.
“Where are we going?”
“To the top of Olympus!”
“If you say the top, do you mean we’re going to the top of that mountain?”
Hestia nodded.
The summit of Olympus. It is truly the home of the twelve gods.
Frondier asked.
“I came to save my brother! “First we have to go to Tartarus.”
“i know! “That is the road to Tartarus!”
The angle of the ground gradually became more inclined. The unicorn had already climbed the slope at an angle that a horse could not climb without hesitation. Due to gravity, Selena held Hestia tighter. It wasn’t something you would do to a god, but no one cared about that now.
“The top of Olympus is the road to Tartarus?”
“Olympus is a volcano!”
Hestia said.
“Go inside the crater of Olympus!”
“… … ! “Then down there!”
“yes! In the endless darkness, Tartarus is there! Olympus is a huge volcano that connects the underworld and the world of gods, with lava rising from the bottom to the place where the gods are!”
Frondier nodded.
They cut, burned, and blasted away the enemies they encountered as they climbed. Hestia, one of the twelve gods. The moment she made up her mind, no matter what happened below, nothing could stop them.
After running at high speed and soaring, they reached near the top.
Hestia spoke then.
“Frondier! Look at me!”
“yes… … ?”
The moment Frontier inadvertently saw Hestia.
self-
Time has stopped.
‘ah… … .’
This moment feels like déjà vu for Frontier.
When you look into the eyes of God, only God and yourself exist, and all time stops.
This is the moment when I met Hephaestus, and before when I met Hestia.
“Frondier, listen carefully.”
Hestia spoke as time stopped.
“You have to look at the past now, when it really matters.”
“… … Hess… … .”
When Frondier was about to say something, Hestia shook her head.
It seemed like there was no time to listen.
“In those memories, I was an outcast. I couldn’t trust them. So I had no say, and my memories don’t tell the whole story.”
Frontier didn’t know what this meant.
Hestia probably knows too.
“So it’s up to you to decide. “Only you can figure out how to accept what they did and what decisions to make.”
Frondier just blinked.
These are words I don’t understand now. But when you see the memories, you will understand.
“I just remember this. “You are not a hero.”
Just before Frontiere saw the memory, Hestia’s voice was heard.
“It shouldn’t be like that.”
* * *
In Hestia’s memories.
The voice I first heard was,
“… … I do not want to.”
It was the anxious trembling of a woman.
“This is what happens in our world.”
“… … Jeanne. “This is the only solution.”
And then a voice was heard admonishing her.
I saw the woman who spoke at first.
… … Jeanne.
It’s Joan of Arc.
The woman I met at Mangot. It’s definitely true.
Jeanne shook her head at someone’s words.
“This is wrong.”
Jeanne had a sad face. He immediately turned his gaze towards everyone.
Yes. every.
Many people gathered here.
Those faces show faces I know.
Joan of Arc, Sigurd, Bellerophon, Roland, Archmage Merlin,
… … Even King Arthur.
In one era, people who could not be in one place at the same time were gathering and talking.
“Were we fighting God to take innocent people and make them suffer?”
“… … This magic is the last great magic that Merlin gathered all of humanity’s knowledge on. “If we miss this opportunity, we will never be able to save humanity again.”
“Does everyone think that way?”
Jeanne asked everyone’s opinions.
That gaze included me.
I’m probably looking at Hestia’s vision right now.
Hestia was among these many heroes.
“You really want to bring someone from another world and put him in danger of death?”
I understood what Jeanne said.
This is my story.
Not ‘Frondier de Roach’,
It was a memory of what ‘I’ had become.
