Wh-What did you just say?

I said that Elulu there is the girl destined to become Igzasion.

What does that mean?! I thought Igzasion was a weapon!

Of course. The ultimate sword for defeating the Demon Lord.

The legend states that only when a dragonkin girl,

born human in appearance, offers her life, shall it be made manifest.

That doesn't mean that Elulu has to die--

Word is that the Demon Lord's forces already control 70% of the world.

That much?!

Hordes of monsters are devouring people.

Evil demonkin are burning down whole towns.

And giants are trampling down one castle after another.

Most every kingdom has been completely overthrown.

All that remain are small towns and villages.

All except for Roseguard Castle.

If the towns and villages you visited are still safe, it was only by chance.

It's true, since we keep going back and forth to the Divine Realm,

we haven't really seen the big picture of this world.

It is only a matter of time before they control the world.

Except the Demon Lord be defeated,

there is no other way to save Gaeabrande.

Elulu... I envy you.

You are the very power that will save this world.

You are the sacred sword that will strike down the Demon Lord.

An honor to all dragonkin!

Th-Thank you very much...

Tonight, we shall make ready the sacred sword ceremony.

You should spend your time before the last supper among your friends.

Are you really sure about this?

Sure? About what?

Even if it is to save the world, you're going to die and become a sword.

If that is my calling, then what else can I do?

She said it was a great honor.

B-Be that as it may...

I've always wanted to be of service to everyone else.

I'm actually a little bit happy my wish is coming true.

Elulu...

Rista, you came here to save our world, right?

I'm going to be serving a goddess, aren't I?

Yes...

Hearing Leviae's words once again reminded me...

...that it is my mission to defeat the Demon Lord and save this world. But...

Say, Seiya...

--Huh? --Sir, these are speed seeds.

They don't sell them in human towns.

For each one you eat, your speed will increase for ten minutes.

You're sure about this? If you're lying, you'll pay. I'll file a lawsuit.

Hey, Seiya!

Now isn't the time for that! Think about Elulu, would you?

What she has to do should already be obvious.

In fact, I shouldn't even have to say anything.

Yes, you're right.

You're right. You're absolutely right, Seiya!

Elulu!

What is the matter? Do not be shy. The members of the village

put their whole hearts into preparing this ceremonial feast.

B-But Elulu isn't...

Elulu is currently getting dressed. She will return shortly.

But...

Hey there!

We made cookies! Try some!

Th-Thank you.

You have one too, mister. We did our best making them.

Go ahead and eat one.

It is time.

And now, it is upon us.

We will carry out the sacred sword ceremony!

Here, in the Dragon Abyss,

is the magic circle set forth by the first Dragon Emperor.

By leaping into it, the girl's flesh and blood will be assimilated

and transformed into the sacred sword Igzasion.

The sacred sword that will defeat the Demon Lord will then emerge!

Elulu...

H-Hold on... Hold on a minute...

S-See you around, Mash, Rista.

And you, too, Seiya. Once I become your sword,

make sure to polish me once in a while to make sure I don't rust.

Come, Elulu! Now throw yourself into the Dragon Abyss!

--Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--Is this really what's right? --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--Mash... --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--Even if this is to save the world... this is wrong. --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

Move it!

--Let me go! Hey! Come on!

--M-Mash... --Let me go! Hey! Come on!

I-I...

Oh? Are you starting to have second thoughts? Someone help her out.

W-Wait, please! This is just outright murder!

--This is a blessed event! --Quickly, into the Abyss! --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--They've completely lost their minds. --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--Elulu! Elulu! --Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

--Igzasion! Igzasion! Igzasion!

Come! Help her cast herself in!

What is this?!

Seiya? Why?

I said I shouldn't have to say anything,

but are you going to make me come out and say it?

You are my baggage carrier.

You can't carry my things if you become a sword, can you?

I said I was making these two my baggage carriers.

I have not changed that decision.

But if Elulu doesn't become Igzasion, this world will be...

I'm not so sure.

Hmph, I can't even be sure the sword will defeat the Demon Lord.

How dare you say that! It was revealed by the first Dragon Emperor!

You surprise me. That's completely illogical.

Just the natterings of an old lizard crone.

L-Lizard crone?!

What?! What are you laughing at?!

Are you saying that you, goddess, like the hero,

have no intention of slaying the Demon Lord and saving this world?!

No!

I swear to you, we will still save this world!

But we can't sacrifice the life of one of our friends to do so!

We will find some other way that does not require Igzasion

and defeat the Demon Lord!

Really... like hero, like goddess.

It is as though you think nothing of our world. You only think of yourselves.

Screw you!

You should be saying that about yourselves!

Elulu, I'm coming to save you--

Mash!

What's wrong?

H-Huh?

I am the careful sort.

I had a hunch that this might happen.

Which is why I had that food earlier laced with a paralytic.

Even those cookies we made you had the drug in them!

It cannot be reversed with a spell or an antidote.

Even you, goddess, will be unable to move for a time!

None of us can move!

Now then, let us proceed with the sacred sword ceremony.

Go on, then, someone cast Elulu into the Abyss!

Elulu!

Damn! Damn it all! Damn it all! Damn it all!

Wh-Wha--?!

But why?!

Did the drug not work on you?!

It didn't work, because I never ate it in the first place.

L-Liar! You did so eat it!

I only pretended to eat, and then later, I secretly vomited it up again.

Food made by lizards, whether they're children or not,

is too nasty to even consider eating.

Th-That's mean!

Which one of us is the mean one, you little snots?

Just as I expected, it was poisoned. Moreover,

as a rule, I only eat the food that woman makes.

Ah! I feel all tingly!

I mean, I actually feel numb, but also, the happiness of being a wife!

I mean, not that I'm a wife! I'm really not!

Seiya, you're so fine tonight!

Well, well...

At this point, you leave me little choice.

I do not wish to get violent with you who will bear the sacred sword,

but I may have to rough you up just a bit.

Ho, go ahead and try.

Aren't you confident? But you should not underestimate me.

Allow me to show you...

...something that is only possible for chosen dragonkin--

the Dragon God Metamorphosis!

"Leviae"

"Leviae" Gah! Her HP is unusually high. On top of which...

Gah! Her HP is unusually high. On top of which...

A dragon's scales are tougher than any metal.

You won't even be able to scratch me with an ordinary sword.

You probably never guessed that you would ever fight a dragon.

Hey, Mash...

That one item is in this bag, right?

R-Right!

I-Is that sword...

...a Dragon Killer?! How do you have that?!

From the moment it was determined we were going to the Dragons' Den,

I knew there was a very good chance I'd be fighting dragons.

Ha-ha! Seiya is, at all times and in all places, perfectly prepared!

That's my master! But how did you get your hands on such a weapon?

By Synthesis, of course. The ingredients were a platinum sword,

and a strand of hair from both you and Elulu, since you're dragonkin.

I finished it off with 100 of Rista's hairs.

Huh?

Hey, that's an awful lot from just me!

And how did you even get that many hairs from me?

I plucked them from you myself while you were sleeping.

Huh?

Hold on! Huh? You plucked them while I was sleeping?!

R-Right. At the moment, combat is more important, huh?

All right, very well! For now, just focus on fighting!

But... But still, afterward, I am definitely...

...going to ask you all about this!

Atomic Split Slash!

Dragon Killer or not, I was not expecting so much damage...

But still...!

Ho, not bad.

Wh-Wha--?! A-Are you trying to kill Elulu?! What about Igzasion?!

There is little difference if she dies before or after being cast in.

The important thing is that the flesh and blood of the chosen girl is there.

You're the worst!

Hero, I imagine you will go on protecting the girl, but as I said,

I am the careful sort.

Elulu! What did you do to Elulu?!

Activated the Death Sentence Necklace.

Once its black light encircles her neck, Elulu's life will be over.

I would say she has three minutes to live.

A cursed item?! You'd go that far to sacrifice Elulu?!

Elulu is destined to die and become the sacred sword!

This is all to save our world!

Leviae!!

Hey...

Lizard crone, you're not with the Demon Lord's forces.

So I'm giving you one warning.

Lift the curse you placed on short-stuff.

You're a fascinating hero. I am the one who is pressing you.

The sacred sword ceremony is absolute!

If you want the curse lifted, you will have to kill me!

I see.

Then I won't hold back any longer.

Phoenix Drive!

H-He's making mincemeat out of her! At this rate...

"Leviae"

"Leviae" Yes! He's winnowed her down by nearly half in no time at all!

Yes! He's winnowed her down by nearly half in no time at all!

Hero, you are indeed strong. But it will take more than this to save the girl!

I have activated Ultimate Wall!

Your attacks will now have no effect at all on me.

I will knock that "wall" down.

H-He kind of reminds me of a hamster right now.

Speed seeds.

Another Dragon Killer? You had two of them?

Of course I have a spare.

But sometimes, a spare can be used like this.

Mode: Double Eternal Sword!

Dual-wielding Dragon Killers while using speed seeds?

And when paired with the Eternal Sword technique...

Are you quite ready now? Then come at me.

That I will.

Amazing! He's doing it! He's doing it!

"Leviae"

"Leviae" Gah! N-No way!

It's barely unchanged from before!

My Ultimate Wall is the supreme hardening technique.

Take pride in the fact that you can do even a little damage! Nonetheless...

I would say you have one minute left.

There is no saving the girl now. Hero, why not cease this pointless fighting?

Seiya... that's... enough...

Elulu!

Thank you... for trying to save me. But that's enough.

Is she...

...destined to become Igzasion?

Must we go this far to save this S-difficulty world?

Now, admit defeat! Elulu, die, and become Igzasion,

for the good of the world and the sake of justice!

The only one admitting defeat will be you.

Huh? What are you talking about?

Wha--?!

Honestly, you call yourself careful?

S-Stop! C-Cease your attack!

Lift the curse immediately! Or you'll fall into the Abyss!

Why? Why would you go so far to protect her?!

The girl has no talent for fighting!

Until she is the sacred sword, she is ordinary scum!

Scum that does nobody any good!

She is not scum.

She is my precious baggage carrier.

Seiya...

Actually... I was hoping you'd call her your precious friend, but...

Lift the curse right now, Leviae! Or we really will let you fall!

I'll lift it! I have lifted it! So cease your attack!

Fool! What I lifted was my Ultimate Wall!

There is nowhere for you to run! Dragon Breath!

Double Wind Blade!

W-Well, I still have my wings!

M-My wings...! B-But how...?!

Th-Thank goodness. Leviae is dead,

and the curse is lifted.

E-Elulu...

Elulu...

Elulu!

Stop it. You're embarrassing me.

Wah! My feet are still asleep.

Jeez...

--Aw, the drug is still working...

--Tell me, Seiya, when exactly did you damage Leviae's wings? --Aw, the drug is still working...

--Tell me, Seiya, when exactly did you damage Leviae's wings? --Huh? Well, I guess that's that.

--Tell me, Seiya, when exactly did you damage Leviae's wings? --Yeah. Sorry.

Before she activated her Ultimate Wall.

It was easy to imagine that she would switch to defense.

Normally, defeating her before she activated it would have been best.

But with her high HP, it was impossible to do so in such a short time.

So instead, I decided to deal with her

by allowing her to activate it, and then, when she was put in a tight spot,

dropped her defense and tried to escape,

denying her means to do so ahead of time.

Just how cautious are you, anyway?

And, if I was wrong about anything...

...it was that she was less "Nurikabe-y" than I thought.

You don't know about slimes, but you know about Nurikabe?

Mm-hmm. I know what Hyosube are, too.

Stupid Leviae. Like hell you're the careful sort.

If it were me, I'd have activated Ultimate Wall during the feast.

Yeah, well, it would be weird if she started hardening up during the feast.

L-Leviae...

--How could this happen? --What are we going to do now?

Wh-What is that?!

L-Leviae has...

...turned into a sword, by the power of the magic circle in the Abyss!

She said Igzasion required the flesh, blood, and life of a woman

who bore the blood of the dragonkin, didn't she?

Leviae's life is already in here. That means...

Have Rista heal you at once.

The sword has now been combined with Elulu's flesh and blood.

How heavenly magnificent!

No doubt about it. That is...

The sacred sword, Igzasion...

Mm-hmm, we now have the sword that can kill the Demon Lord.

Nice that you all could fulfill your mission as a dragonkin.

I'd say it's a win-win outcome.

But our Leviae has now passed away.

She would have wanted to offer her life to save the world, right?

She said so herself while she was still alive, didn't she?

W-Well, I suppose so...

Then there's no problem. Win-win.

Is it a win-win, though?

It's entirely a win-win! Which means the ceremony is now concluded!

All right, dismissed!

Whew... At last, we're back.

Thank you, Seiya! I was so scared! I didn't want to die!

Stop that. You're bothering me.

Elulu...

You know what? The thing that was hardest for me

would have to be not being able to talk to you anymore.

M-Me, too...

Hold on, is this the way these two are supposed to end up?

Then again, love does accompany an adventure.

Mash, Elulu...

Go on ahead and wait for us at the entrance.

Huh? H-How come?

You two have a lot to talk about, right?

Seiya and I need to have a word, too.

O-Oh, okay.

A-All right, we'll wait for you at the entrance.

Wow, so pure and innocent.

Hmph, ridiculous.

Oh, I meant it when I said I needed to speak to you.

It's about your Dragon Killers.

You say you plucked out my hair?

So what if I did?

Hey! What's the big idea making me go bald?!

And you came into my room while I was sleeping?!

I hope you didn't do anything else, did you?!

What do you mean?

I mean, taking advantage of me being asleep

for some of this, and that, and the other.

All I did was pluck 100 of your hairs.

You just plucked 100 of my hairs? Doesn't that sound funny to you?

That alone is enough for me to arrest you immediately!

If I hadn't done so, I couldn't have made those Dragon Killers.

You have no grounds to accuse me.

There's one other thing I want to bring up.

Now what?

That sword--it isn't Igzasion, is it?

What?

I am a goddess, remember.

I don't sense enough sacred energy from the sword to defeat the Demon Lord.

Apparently, I didn't give you enough credit.

You're right. This isn't Igzasion. I synthesized a Platinum Sword Plus.

And you used that to hoodwink everyone else, huh?

To put their minds at ease.

Look, you can't tell anyone.

I know.

But if, like Leviae said,

Igzasion is the only weapon that can beat the Demon Lord...

We'll just have to find another way. You said so yourself, didn't you?

I-I was caught up in the moment when I said that.

"Gonna be okay." Something will work out.

Huh?

Let's go. They're waiting for us.

"Something will work out"?

That isn't like the cautious Seiya I know. Maybe he's just exhausted.

Once we get back to the village, we need some rest...

M-Master!

Rista!

All is in readiness, as ordered.

The hero will be of no significance.

Hmm... We will now be able to destroy even the gods of heaven...
