"Huhhhh..." Maria, whose limbs touched the ground, breathed short and urgently, and the strange sound of twisting skeletal texture continued to grow. The severe pain like a tide continued to impact the remaining consciousness. Her petite body twitched and curled up in a ball due to pain.

"Sister Maria! Are you okay? Be cheered up..." Helena, who was worried, was anxious and comforted her. She suddenly noticed the blood vessels on Maria's body and her slightly expanded and deformed arms. She subconsciously opened her red mouth, but she could no longer make any sound.

Helena, who has been in charge of the mission for several years, is not a rookie warrior who doesn't know anything. She even personally carried out the commission of the black letter. What does Maria's current state mean in her heart is very clear in her heart. It is a sign that the demonic energy is out of control and is about to wake up! [bsp;   Every time there will be a battle between human consciousness and demon consciousness. As a warrior, everyone has the ultimate enlightenment. Although they know that this day will always come, they didn't expect it to come so quickly!

Looking at Sister Maria who was tortured by the violent demonic energy inside her body, Helena felt very sad.

It was Maria who had always been by her side, protecting and comforting herself in the most painful time, and caring for herself gently like a real sister. She was once isolated by her companions because of her hot personality and was severely punished for offending the instructor because of her rebelliousness. Her whole body was painful and cold and curled up on the cold and hard stone bed in the Yinchao Cave like a wounded beast. It was Maria who used her body temperature to comfort herself, otherwise she, a first-class warrior, might have long been submerged in the pain of turning into a half-human and half-demon.

"Do it..., Helena... I can't hold on." With intuition, I forcefully grabbed my friend's arm holding the sword, and my consciousness could no longer reach the vision. Maria raised her slightly deformed face mixed with tears and saliva. The golden pupils without focal length looked ahead blankly, and murmured intermittently: "Please, get up...at least... let me leave in human form."

"Sister Maria..." Helena, whose eyes were blank, whispered Maria's name.

"Uh...hoho...no...no, no, I can't recover! So...please." A moaning uncontrollable moan came out of my throat, and it was about to be swallowed by the swelling pain.

Helena, who had the only thought of "Sister Maria is leaving her" in her mind, was frozen, and her arms moved unconsciously with Maria's pull until the clear and cold sword tip hit the girl's throat.

"Please, Helena, hurry up and do it!"

"What are you going to do! Maria!" Helena, who finally responded a little, cried in a crying voice, "What are you talking about! Don't... don't!"

"You understand... I was just barely suppressing the power of the demon. This time I was seriously injured and used too much demonic power. It was impossible for me to recover." With the last strength, Maria pulled Helena's arm towards her. The sharp sword blade easily wiped the girl's fair and delicate skin, and the red rose-colored blood beads flowed out along the sword tip. "I hope to die in the form of a human being. Isn't this the reason for our existence...?"

"No...No...No." Helena, who wanted to take her arm back, couldn't do anything. Helena, who was crying, kept shook her head and cried loudly.

"Listen to me Helena, it's your vitality rather than taking care of you. Your struggle attracts and inspires me who can only accept it, and gives me the courage to persevere until now. It's really a pity that I can't continue to stay by your side, but... I'm very happy to be able to walk to the end of my life in your hands." Holding Helena's arm hung weakly, and a crystal clear liquid slid out of the golden pupils that had lost its focal length. "So... Please, Helena, don't let me become a monster, let me leave as a human!"

Although he was unwilling to accept it, Helena still understood that as her predecessors said, she became close to demons because of the continuous use of demon power. Every time they fought, a struggle between human consciousness and demon consciousness would occur in their bodies. Unconsciously, they would learn their temporary limits and be sure that they were about to awaken.

Although it is very painful and sad, at this time, being cut off by the most valued companions in the past and leaving as a human being is the best result for most great swords.

He wiped his face hard, dragging two tears on his pretty face, and Helena, who still had water droplets on her thick eyelashes, bit her lips and straightened her body, holding the hilt with her trembling hands tightly, lifted the sword with a cold light under the sunlight over her shoulder. "I understand, I... will end your pain in an instant..."

Seeing the severely injured and chaotic sword kneeling on the ground, waiting for death like a prisoner waiting for punishment. Another soldier raised his sword high and seemed to be able to cut it down at any time. Helen and Maiya sighed and looked down with a faint sadness. The other members of the group had strange faces and couldn't figure out what was going on.

The new member of the group named Dilumudo lifted his front bangs, frowned deeply, and asked in surprise: "What are they going to do? Are they killing each other?"

It is similar to the organization's attitude towards awakened people. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, only the most elite warriors in the group and the cavalry division know the existence of the awakened people. As for the origin of the awakened people, only a few people in the Knights know it. As a new rookie member, Dilumudu and the cavalry division are naturally not clear about these things.

"In order to protect others, they abandoned their human identity and became the great sword, and ran alone in the darkness until this moment of arrival. This... is the fate of most great swords." Clossi, who suddenly spoke, said inexplicably, shook his head, sighed quietly, and walked slowly towards the two of them.

"Ka" Helena stood steadily and posed for a slash.

Close your eyes as if you feel at ease, and crystal clear tears slid down the corners of your eyes. Maria curled the corners of her mouth and said goodbye with a smile: "Farewell, my sister."

"Ahhhhh." As the cuckoo cried and the bloody ape, the broad sword turned into a cold light and ran down. There was no sound of the sword blade cutting the muscles, and no bright red blood gushed out.

‘Clang!’ is the trembling sound of steel colliding. The strong sound explosion vibrates the air, and the aura produced by the powerful force stirs up the clothes of several people.

A few golden hair cut by the sword wind slowly fell to the ground.

Maria, who had not waited for that sword, suddenly opened her eyes, looked at Clossi who was about to stop the slashing sword in front of her neck, and scolded: "What are you doing?! I hope to leave this world as a human being, so I must take advantage of the time when I am still maintaining human consciousness. People who don't know anything, please don't meddle in other people's business!" After that, she snorted and turned to Helena to signal her to continue.

What should I do? The most shameful beauty is snot and tears. Our protagonist is worthless and merciful and careless, and old age and illness are recurring.

Clossi thought about whether the no.3 kidnapping of the organization to his own camp would cause the other party to be overwhelmed. According to the combat power that the Rhine family in the west now has, the organization may not dare to do anything to him. The biggest possibility is that he treats people in the abyss. Although he hates him so much that he is afraid of his huge combat power.

With this idea, the thought of abducting the Big Sword Sister was like a ball rolling down a mountain and couldn't stop it. Her two big and bright eyes were dripping around, and her little hands rubbed her face with a treacherous look.

Helen has seen this expression too much! Appearing on Closey's face means having bad thoughts.

"I don't know anything?" Clossi, who was quite dissatisfied with Maria's IQ, rolled his eyes, and opened the big sword in front of Maria's neck with one hand and touched the other's head with the other. Uh, no, it's a bit wrong, because he didn't know how to control it, and it was better to grab the head and turn it around rather than touching the head.

Looking at the girl's golden pupils, Clossi raised his eyebrows and said slowly and clearly: "At that moment, I could clearly feel the ugly demon hidden in his body...?"

He even knew this! He knew what he would face when he stopped, so why did he stop it?!
