I Became the Strongest With The Failure Frame【Abnormal State Skill】As I Devastated Everything Chapter 79

Chapter 79
79 – We will meet again, at that time—
[I finally understand now . ]
Civit puts his free hand over his mouth .
It feels like I was looking at myself when I was doing something like that .
[I can indeed feel some kind of an out of place feeling regarding your identity but… So, that’s how it is . ]
Seras was quite surprised too .
[Touka-dono is a Hero from Another World…!?]
Even the other members of the Five Dragon Warriors seem like they’ve heard something unexpected .
[Huh!? Is that boy really a Hero from Another World?]
[I have heard that the goddess had already succeeded in summoning Heroes but… it’s unexpected that we would meet one of them in this place . ]
Civit began to ask .
I immediately understood from his voice that seems a bit bouncy .
[However Touka Mimori, why are you in this place?]
Civit could perceive it if I were to tell a lie .
It seems to be a different kind of power compared to the ability of Seras’ spirit .
The moment that I had stated my name, he immediately knew that it was just a pseudonym .
He could immediately see through it if I were to just blatantly lie .
Blatant “lies” were something I couldn’t use here .
In order to survive, It is necessary for me to push through this conversation by only using “truth” in my words .
[My standing were quite peculiar compared to the other summoned Heroes . ]
[Fumu…]
[That’s why I’m acting separately from the other Heroes . The others weren’t allowed, but the goddess has sent me out herself . ]
[Your words doesn’t seem to hold any lies but…]
Like I thought, it seems that he really held some kind of ability to sense and see through any lies .
Sweat began dripping down on my cheek again .
A different standing compared to the other Heroes .
I’m acting separately from the other Heroes .
And the one who sent me out were certainly the goddess .
I haven’t told any lies at all .
All of them were the truth .
However, it would all depend on Civit on how he interprets what I said .
Talking with someone who has the ability to sense your lies .
Is it possible for me to say that the experience I had with interacting with Seras who could see through lies was quite effective?
[Why are you acting separately from the other Heroes? Or did you receive some kind of classified order from the goddess?]
I should avoid answering with a YES or NO .
I just showed a proud smile on my face .
[Could it even compared with the other when my status was way too different compared to them?]
[Hoooh…?]
Civit’s eyes narrowed .
His eyes showed high expectations .
Yes, I’m an E-Rank Hero .
My “status” were clearly different compared to the other Heroes .
[Thanks to that, I can now act on my own . ]
[A man who the goddess had also recognized as special, huh…]
[Yeah, I seem to be treated as a special kind of Hero by the goddess . ]
[Isn’t that quite interesting? And so— What do you desire as the Hero from Another World?]
Full of composure in my face, I spoke out .
My demand, that is .
[A postponement . ]
Civit looks like he somehow understood what I meant .
[So you want us to overlook seeing you for now, huh?]
[That’s right . ]
[However… What could I gain for overlooking you in this place?]
[You would indeed acquire some gains . At least, you would have some . ]
[What do you mean by me acquiring some gains?]
[With how strong I am now, I might be able to kill you . ]
Civit looks like he just felt a sudden shudder down his spines .
He reacted as if goosebumps began rising from his skin .
Civit’s mouth distorted…
. . in the form of a crooked smile .
I feel like he’s trying to hold back the joy that’s about to show up on his face .
[Kill me, eh…?]
[I’m a Hero from Another World . If I were to just level up, I might even reach your realm . ]
My language has become a bit rougher .
It’s as if I’m being aggressive .
It’s as if I’m challenging him .
While blurting out just this flimsy reason .
If I were to grow up, I would indeed eventually reach Civit’s realm .
Mimori Touka firmly believes that right now .
I can already imagine it .
The figure of me as Civit makes his decision .
[This man… You already know how great I am, however you still believe that you could reach my realm? As I thought, you’re interesting . ]
[I’ll be stronger than anyone else . My ultimate ideology would be— to get enough power to trample down everything, even that goddess . ]
[Well then, let’s hear it . How do you intend to become stronger? If I remember correctly, the Heroes from Another World were in rampant search for golden-eyed monsters—]
[We were about to head inside the Golden Demon Zone after this . ]
Civit’s excitement began suddenly shot up .
His expression seems like he had anticipated my reply .
[You’re going into the Demon Zone, so that you could hunt those golden-eyed monsters that were thriving in that place, right?]
I ambiguously smiled in response .
[Perhaps . ]
[But, if you were to fight golden-eyed monsters, wouldn’t the goddess have prepared an opponent for you with the right strength so that you won’t have to enter the Demon Zone?]
[I’m going to be taking a different path from the other Heroes . That’s why, I was now given free liberty on my actions by the Goddess Vysis . ]
The goddess words were—
“If you were able to survive in that ruins were transfering you and be able to reach the ground above, we have decided that we won’t interfere with you any further . Alion gives you the right, the liberty to live as you please . ”
[I was told that they won’t interfere with me right now . In short, I’m free to do what I want as long achieve the Goddess’ goals . ]
[If you were to eventually defeat that Great Demon Emperor, won’t you have a say in the decisions that the higher ups could make?]
[Well, I guess I’ll just leave it up to your imaginations . ]
[Fumu… It seems that you’re a Hero that the goddess could hardly handle?]
Civit’s eyes lit up with joy .
[Based on my current status— the divine blessing on my status weren’t numerically high yet . That’s why, I may look like a small fry to you right now, but I will eventually become the hero that could kill “The Humanity’s Strongest” . That’s why, you should already know what you should do right now… Right?]
[To overlook seeing you here, is what you’re saying?]
[Yeah . ]
[However… Is there even a guarantee that you and me will meet again and fight in the future?]
[Don’t worry about that . Whatever happens in the future, I will still return back in the goddess’ home . ]
[Fumu…]
[Well, the time that I may return may change depending on how the battle with the Great Demon Emperor’s army flows . ]
[Even if you were to return back there, I doubt that the goddess will ever let you go, knowing that she had already recognized your special abilities… that means you don’t have any worries even if you were to disappear . ]
[How should I say this… I’m forced to return back . I’m going back at where the goddess is, and I’m not just going to disappear at some kind of place . ]
This should be quite obvious .
[I will surely go back towards the Goddess . ]
[Alright . ]
Civit cheerfully replied .
[I want to see it . ]
[………… . . ]
[Even if you were to grow poorly in the future, I still want to see it . And towards the hero who were recognized by the goddess for his extraordinary potential that he’s hiding within him— I want to kill you myself . ]
[Yeah, you took the words right out of my mouth . ]
I took a step forward .
[And therefore, we’ll settle it ourselves someday, Civit Gartland…!]
Civit looks like he’s enshrouded in delight .
[You’re just a weak person but… you’re making me seething in anger… But I like it, your fighting spirit! And that intent to kill…! Alright, I agree!]
Civit declared .
[We will overlook you, Touka Mimori . ]
[Kaka, I suspected as much . ]
[Well then, you’d better leave this place already . We still need to kill Seras Ashrain, so you’d better get going . ]
I could see that Seras took a deep breath in response to those words .
Without delay, I immediately said .
[We’re going to have quite a problem there then . ]
[What?]
[Seras is necessary for my journey . ]
[Do you want her to accompany you into the Golden Demon Zone . ]
[I’m still at a level where I would need someone strong enough to cooperate with me, you know? You should be able to judge it yourself… Right?]
[Yeah… That woman would weaken those golden-eyed monsters, while you will deal the final blow . ]
[You may say that she is quite a weak enemy for someone like you, but you must admit that Seras Ashrain’s skillful when it comes to fighting . ]
[But, isn’t it necessary for you to report Seras Ashrain to the Goddess? She may have already lost interest in her but… Seras Ashrain is still the woman who was wanted by the goddess, the one who summoned you . I think you’re going to spoil her mood if she were to accompany you without even telling the Goddess . I should have already mentioned it before, but you know what happened with Neia after they spoiled her mood, right?]
[Hah! That has nothing to do with me!]
[Hmmm?]
[Whatever that story that may be, you can just indefinitely postpone when you would report that towards the goddess!]
I laughed out loud as I’m being obstinate about my decision .
[If I can use something, then I will make use of anything…! The goddess’ impression towards me doesn’t matter! In order for me to gain power, I will make use of Seras Ashrain…! Only that would have been enough!]
[Fuu—]
Civit opens his mouth wide .
[Fuu… Fuhaha… Fuhahahaha! So that’s how it is! Alright, Touka Mimori! That’s right, that much should be good! Do that only for that reason! You are completely with logical thoughts and yet, you look like you’re completely passionate to tear people down into pieces! Ahh, it’s been such a long time since I’ve seen someone like you! Someone who’s not filled with cowardice, someone like you who’d face me directly in front of me with determination of your own!]
Civit rearranges his sitting posture .
[Alright . Well then, we’ll show her some mercy . ]
Civit glanced towards Seras and pointed at her .
[By my benevolence, we would overlook Seras Ashrain for now . ]
Oban became flustered and tried raising a fuss .
[Ehh!? Wait!? Civit-chan!? Can’t you wait for a moment!? Do you seriously intend to overlook that Holy Knight-chan right when she’s in front of us!?]
[Touka said that she’s necessary for his growth . You could just kill her after I had my Touka . If you’re worried that she might leave this continent, then we could just go towards the western continent through the diplomatic route by riding a ship from Jonato . We could then send a directive towards their higher ups stating for them to hand her over . Anyway, the fact that we would kill that woman would never change . After all, there’s no difference whether we kill her now or later . ]
[No, but you know–!? Haven’t we found this Holy Knight-chan after some difficulty!? Then what if she were to be killed by some monster in the Demon Zone, her corpse would have been eaten by then! It may even be possible that she would disappear at some place that human’s eyes couldn’t reach—]
[Shut up, I’ll kill you . ]
Civit glanced at him as if he’s about to kill him .
[Unngghh…!?]
Oban draws back away from him .
His face became pale .
The intensive killing intent that overflowed into his body seems to have numbed his body .
Even the other members of the Five Dragon Warriors flinched .
Just that one threatening statement made it look like he had stepped onto the stage and trampled on the people in front of him .
[……………]
There is only one absolute in the Black Dragon Knights .
Civit Gartland .
As long as you could grasp him within your palms, it could be said that you can control the will of all of the Knights .
[And with that… Your life span has been prolonged, Seras Ashrain . ]
Civit said .
[You’d better use her as much as you can, Touka . From now on, you would be Touka’s “tool” . You must make sure that you could send the “Perfect Touka” towards me . Let’s see… if you fail to protect him, I will torment Cattleya instead . ]
[!]
[If you were to successfully send his “Perfect form” towards me— At that time, I would properly instantly kill you without making you feel any pain . I promise you that . ]
[—Touka-dono . ]
[Sorry about that, Seras . That’s how it is . ]
It’s fine .
Seras had already noticed it too .
So that we could get through this place, I would need to compete with Civit this way .
The other members of the Five Dragon Warriors didn’t say anything about Civit’s decision .
After all, they can’t go against the absolute .
[Schweiz . ]
Civit called out .
[Here . ]
[Go find Grimm Ritter that should have been patrolling around the area right now the area . Tell him to not put his hands on these two . ]
[Roger . ]
[After he had gained the name of “Heroic Blood Killer”, it seems that guy has been hardly listening to your words . ]
(T/N: I’m sorry about Ch . 72, translating this part as the 5DW as part of the “Heroic Blood” . Upon looking through it again, I realized that it was actually this one . Again, I’m sorry . )
[Hah… Even though he’s my son, he’s thinking as if he’s a different kind of knight compared to the others . It would have been more convenient if he were to just keep his hands off now…]
[I see . ]
Civit’s white dragon spread out its wings wide open .
[Fuuu… The first act in this stage was far better than what I had imagined . It shouldn’t be a bad idea for me to be hopeful for the time that the curtains would rise again . ]
Civit had a soft expression on his face as if he’s really blessed .
[I’m looking forward to seeing you again, Touka Mimori . ]
The black dragons that were ridden by the other members of the Five Dragon Warriors also flapped their large wings .
They started preparing to leave this place .
[…………… . ]
They were about to fly away .
The sweat still haven’t stopped coming out of my body .
Seras haven’t died .
I’ve also survived .
We succeeded in having “The Humanity’s Strongest” to overlook us .
We have won that gamble .
However, sweat still haven’t stopped coming out of our body .
[
[Touka—
—lyze>]
—you bastard!]
Civit wouldn’t refuse any “opponent” that faces him in front .
Even when I was approaching him when I’m making that defiant conversation with him, he still won’t refuse .
I don’t blame him .
That’s right .
I have no plans of killing him back then .
In short—
It’s when they’re within my range .
[As expected from you, “The Humanity’s Strongest” . ]
The moment that the dragon turned around as they were about to leave this place .
I aimed at that interval where their vigilance had faded the most .
And yet just this one person, Civit has responded at my intention to attack at such a formidable speed .
However, I have already gained the advantage in that place already .
Therefore, I was only a bit faster than him .
When Civit had firmly believed the “truth” made up by facts, the probability that the conclusion would end up this way is high .
Civit is the opposite of that Soul Eater .
The Soul Eater’s guard would be released after if becomes negligent after seeing its prey had become “frightened” .
On the other hand, the thing that released Civit’s guard would be “belligerence” .
Rather than running away from him, you should face him forward .
Another factor that helped was that he was quite conscious of the “flow of the stage” .
The words the Civit said when he’s about to leave was…
“The first act in this stage were far better than what I had imagined . It shouldn’t be a bad idea for me to be hopeful for the time that the curtains would rise again . ”
At that time, this “stage” had also been over for him .
Because, for Civit, this certain act has already come to an “end” .
[I guess it’s time to see the conclusion— You might think it’s evil, but I don’t intend to drag out our fateful connections that long . ]
It’s the truth that my sweat still haven’t stopped flowing out .
After all, that moment would be the one deciding my fate .
Everyone believes that the act in this place has already ended and the stage was about to move towards the next panel, but that’s also where they’ve slackened . And thus, that momentary opening appeared right at that instant—
And I only have to thrust it in that moment .
I thought I should have already finished it .
It can’t be helped if it’s risky .
It’s now time to let them loose .
[Unfortunately for you, we are not inside a beautiful story, Civit . ]
This is a corrupted story .
There is no room for that “showdown through that promised duel with his fated enemy” that Civit had expected .
That’s because this is a story about revenge .
My journey that has been bound by my corrupted revenge .
If you were to consider it rationally, the existence of these Black Dragon Knights were just a risk for my play about revenge .
Therefore, I would need to remove them .
There’s no need for them in the next act .
[That’s why—]
When I had spoken the skill name, I wove my way through that gap and held out my right hand .
Towards where my right hand was pointing at, I could see the paralyzed bodies of the Five Dragon Warriors as they’re falling down onto the ground .
And I…
With my right hand still sticking out towards these Five Dragon Warriors…
Just like that…
As if their lives were sent right on top of my hands…
[Our fates may have just crossed just now but—]
And were now completely in my grasp .
[This is where it ends, Black Dragon Knights . ]
