Lost Narrative Poetry

"Damn it...what's going on..."

Hamazura Shiage turned the steering wheel of the four-wheel drive car slightly and muttered. The violent storm outside the car was coming from all directions, seemingly endless. The dense rain curtain and splashing water mist made the visibility extremely low.

Even if the wipers worked hard, and even if the light of the car lights shined straight out, it was still hard to say what the effect was. He had to drive the vehicle carefully and focus on the front, but he still felt blurry and didn't even know he was Wherever you are.

It always felt like I had unknowingly strayed from the familiar streets of Academy City and fallen into some magical alien world.

None of the companions in the car spoke, and the silence was very quiet, especially against the background sound of the howling wind, pounding rain, and deafening thunder.

This is because they all had a vague premonition...

Something almost ominous.

This sudden summer thunderstorm is really too abnormal. The dark storm is more like deliberately covering up something... Although they are just a group of gangsters, they have been living on the streets all year round and have been able to survive without any accidents. Being lively shows that they have keen senses.

"Wait, what...what is that?"

After carefully moving forward and driving a distance despite the storm, Hamazura Shiage's eyes suddenly widened, and on the contrary, his pupils suddenly contracted.

He saw in the boundless dark storm ahead, and in the looming outline of the city, there was the faint shadow of a towering, majestic building.

What kind of plane?

Obviously when I passed by here last night, it wasn't there yet... Wait, could it be that I really drove to another place unknowingly during a thunderstorm with extremely low visibility? But this doesn't make sense. Even if such a building were placed in the entire Academy City, it would not be ignored.

No matter which school district or street it is located on, it is bound to be a landmark building that can be seen at a glance.

So...when did I leave Academy City? Did you really drive in a thunderstorm and travel to other dimensions? Hamazura Shijo glanced at the navigation system subconsciously, and a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.

"...The situation seems not quite right. Should we go over and take a look?"

Pressing on the brake, the gangster looked at his companion.

…

…

"It's absolutely hateful! We can't let this tower continue to exist in the world!"

"Destroy it! You must destroy it and turn it into ashes!"

"That's right! Use "Gregor Chorus"! "

The knights, who were all wearing airtight silver armor from the top of their heads to the soles of their feet, stood on the street and allowed the violent storm to roar and hit them. However, they no longer cared about so much and just stared at the people directly in front of them. That tall tower revealed undisguised resentment and anger in its fanatical eyes.

Gathering all the power of the Crusaders, the raid launched was very comprehensive and terrifying. Not only did it break through the gate of Academy City in an instant, paralyzing the functions of most areas of the city, it also made the vanguard troops attack like lightning. He went straight to Huanglong and reached the target.

This shows that their previous preparations were indeed not a waste of time, but that they had fully formulated their tactics. They might have also conducted various rehearsals to develop a tacit understanding between the action teams, or even through divination or divine revelation. , and found out the detailed location information of the target to be eradicated.

Etc., etc.

As one of the vanguards, the knights, after seeing the majestic tower standing in front of them, unexpectedly felt the anger of leaving. How could they, who have the most pious and fanatical beliefs, accept this? What a disrespectful act against God!

Even the Tower of Babel could not be built, so you are worthy! Therefore, it must be destroyed, it must be destroyed, and this tower must not be left behind, which will insult the prestige of God.

The fanatics who quickly reached a consensus organized a spell in anger. They wanted to make the arrogant blasphemer understand that there are some things that must never be done. If you do them, you must pay a price, and that price is absolutely necessary for the other party. Can't afford it!

"According to John Revelation Chapter 8 Verse 7──"

As if they had rehearsed countless times in advance, the knights lined up. The leader of the knights raised the sword originally hanging on his waist to the sky. The sword quickly shone with red light. In this violent thunderstorm, It was like a conspicuous lightning rod in the weather.

"──The sound of destruction of the first angel, holding a wind instrument, reappears here!"

The high-pitched voices of countless fanatics are singing hymns of praise in unison at this moment, and the terrifying spell called "Gregor Choir" is about to be launched!

This was originally the ultimate weapon of the Roman Orthodox Church. Three thousand three hundred and thirty-three monks gathered in the church to chant the great magic of the Holy Mantra. Just like focusing sunlight with a magnifying glass, the power of magic can be greatly enhanced.

at the same time.

"What is this for..."

At the end of the street behind, several figures who were soaked in the heavy rain were looking at this blurry scene with squinted eyes, somewhat confused.

"Could it be the mysterious new religions that have emerged recently?"

"Oh, it's that kind of organization that uses the doctrine of "Those who don't believe in gods will be punished by God" to make others take strange drugs and then brainwash them? "

They discussed in a low voice, thinking that this might be the case, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why this group of people gathered on the street in the heavy rain to engage in such mysterious and weird rituals. They were obviously people who had been brainwashed by a cult.

only.

In the next second, their eyes widened in shock.

The moment the high-pitched chanting sound fell, the red sword in the hands of the leading knight commander made a trumpet-like sound very suddenly, as if an angel blew the seven trumpets announcing the end of the world, resounding throughout the night sky.

The next moment, all sounds disappeared.

Whether it was the resounding sound like a doomsday trumpet, the noisy roar of the storm, or the roar of thunder that was about to tear the entire world apart like an apocalypse, they all disappeared completely without warning in an instant.

It was as if the video tape was being played and someone suddenly pressed the mute button.

The dense rain clouds that were originally floating in the dark sky were suddenly blown away at this moment, revealing a huge hole.

The sun briefly shone in, and the light passed through the dense storm, allowing School District 23 and nearby places to briefly return to the daytime environment. Although it was still relatively dim, the sunlight seemed soft or even weak, but That's enough.

Almost everyone outside could see it. Like a huge thunderstorm, a thick beam of light emitted from the sky to the world appeared in the sky near the tower. The beam of light was as red as blood, like thousands of flaming arrows gathered together. Fusion together, turned into a huge spear.

With this blow, it penetrated the clouds and struck down fiercely towards the tower-like building that appeared in the 23rd School District at an unknown time!

Seeing Guren's magic spear, it hit the blasphemous tower in an instant. The members of the Knights who launched the technique showed enthusiastic and cheerful smiles. That's it, just be destroyed by them, just go. Die!

"..."

"..."

The laughter stopped suddenly, like a croaking duck being strangled by its neck.

Their smiles were frozen on their faces, and their eyes seemed to have seen an unbelievable scene.

Rumble——! !

The furious sky erupted with a deafening roar, and the flames in the gaps in the clouds flashed with dazzling lightning. The holes that had been penetrated were refilled by surging rain clouds, and the briefly reappeared sky was once again obscured. The sun disappeared.

Everything was as if it had never happened. The tall tower was unscathed. The endless spire disappeared directly into the endless rain clouds, and stepped into the rain clouds in the hell-like sky, sparkling with thunder and lightning. Deep in the vortex.

Heavy rain, hurricanes, thunder, all violent natural forces cannot shake it in the slightest.

This is natural, because this is above the world and wants to be on an equal footing with the throne of authority in the sky. The so-called "Tower of Chaos"...or the "Gate of God".

Since it is a feat that challenges the power of God and attempts to achieve the status of a new god, it is naturally a "great cause" that surpasses all "miracles". The "mystery" of the mere magical mysteries cannot damage it at all... because of the mystery. Only ever succumbing to a higher mystery.

"How, how could..."

The Knights couldn't believe the scene before them. The "Gregor Choir" had no effect at all?

"This is impossible!"

"In the Vatican Basilica, the greatest spiritual place in the world, 3,333 monks gathered together to issue a holy spell that can accurately turn any corner of the world into ashes!"

"This tower is absolutely no exception! This is all fake! Everything is fake!"

Some people had hideous faces, distorted expressions, and yelled hysterically, refusing to accept what was happening in front of them. Others seemed to have lost all their strength, and the swords in their hands fell to the ground with a clang.

Fanatic faith is a double-edged sword. It can not only provide cheating buffs to fanatics, but it can also instantly defeat their previous persistence and defense when they are shaken.

The "Gregor Choir" exerted by them is exactly the power of the original version. Especially after this period of pre-war mobilization and preparation, all the Crusaders have put aside their past grudges and joined hands under the same goal... This power It should be able to achieve the theoretical maximum result.

Such a powerful power, such a sacred power, was completely annihilated at the moment of collision, without even having any impact on the target?

What a joke, they can't accept it at all.

Also finding it unacceptable was Hamazura Shigami and his friends who were secretly hiding and watching at the end of the street behind. Their faces were full of astonishment. That Honglian magic gun just now was so powerful, but the result was loud thunder and light rain?

What kind of plane are you doing?

Da da da--

At this moment, crisp footsteps came from behind, and the noisy thunderstorm could not cover up the small sound.

The hearts of several gangsters suddenly jumped, and they subconsciously turned their heads to look back. Then they were all stunned.

Her long hair was as bright as gold, blowing without being affected by the outside world, and the fierce storm seemed to have consciously avoided her figure. Her pair of vermilion eyes were gentle and had a certain aloofness. The intimidation made Hamazura Shigami and others feel completely unable to breathe just by looking at it.

Their whole bodies were trembling, and every cell was trembling. This was the instinctive reaction of life when faced with extreme terror.

Will die...

As long as you confront this woman, you will definitely die...

He couldn't even think of resisting, so he could only be killed by her obediently, just like an animal facing its natural enemy sadly facing its fate...

"This kind of power... is really amazing."

Without even looking at the few gangsters around her, the figure with blond hair and red eyes, who looked like a girl, walked forward step by step. As she walked, she raised her palms to look at her body, her red eyes flashing. A faint smile.

Suddenly appearing in this strange city shrouded in thunderstorms, an inexplicable memory appeared in her mind. This was an unprecedented experience for her.

However, after removing the messy junk information in that strange memory, such as "This is a game, it is no longer a question of who created this game. Maybe it is the gods, maybe it is the devil, more likely it is aliens or the future." After strange introductions such as "human beings", she finally understood her situation.

I was not summoned here as my true body, but as an existence form similar to a servant.

Someone used her information to create a clone - the one she is now - and drove her like a servant.

Of course, the rewards are also extremely amazing...

She felt the power surging in her body and narrowed her eyes slightly. Since it was not the real body, there was no risk. She just followed the guy's ideas. She only hoped that the guy would have the last laugh and fulfill his promise. Promise of……

"who??"

"Stop! Are you a heretic too?!"

"Send your name!"

The members of the knights in front noticed the huge magical aura approaching from behind, quickly turned around, and shouted angrily, hostility and murderous intent emerging from them without concealment.

"Just for you... don't even think about knowing my name." Those crimson eyes were indifferent, as if they were looking at a group of dead people, "Glensogg, kill them!"

The terrifying tide of magic roared and swept away, shattering the surrounding rain and storms. Countless crow feathers appeared from nowhere and fell. The endless tide of crows was like a torrent, fiercely moving towards the pale-faced knights. Pounce!

…

…

"Back again..."

Holding a wet cigarette at the corner of his mouth with a melancholy expression, the red-haired delinquent priest looked at the city in front of him, wiped the rain from his face, and turned to look at the girl "Saint" beside him.

"This environment is very unfavorable for me to fight in, Kanzaki. I may have to spend more time setting it up..."

"I know."

Kanzaki Kaori nodded and said in a faint voice, but did not look at her companions. She was still staring straight ahead, not knowing what she was thinking... The war had finally begun, and she had no way to refuse this war. Because it is said to be God’s new covenant.

Fortunately, Index and the others should have listened to his own advice and left this city that was destined to be destroyed.

"How about...you go with those from the Amakusa Cross Sect? I might have to spend a lot of time." Steele thought for a while and suggested.

"No need, didn't we agree?" Kanzaki Kaori shook her head. This environment was indeed very unfriendly to Steele. She was worried that if she didn't follow, something unexpected would happen to the flame magician.

This city is not completely defenseless.

"Then it's up to you..."

Steele nodded noncommittally, then stared at the street ahead.

Kanzaki Kaori's reaction was faster, and he had already stepped forward to block his companion. He held the handle of the Seven Heavens and Seven Swords at his waist and narrowed his eyes slightly.

There were slight footsteps mixed with the background sounds of the thunderstorm. In the darkness at the end of the street ahead, a figure slowly walked over. From far to near, the footsteps gradually became clearer, and the same figure itself gradually became clearer.

What finally appeared in the eyes of the two magicians working together was...

"nun?"

Kanzaki Kaori frowned. She had already seen that she was probably a woman wearing a nun's uniform. She had a slim and exquisite body with uneven curves. She seemed to be a peerless beauty.

Is he also a member of the Christian faith? The companion who acted together this time?

She subconsciously thought about it, and her tense body unconsciously relaxed a little, and she exhaled slightly. Just at this time, the nun had walked closer, and she could clearly see the other person's true feelings. Allow.

The hair has not been shaved, and the long black hair hangs down under the headscarf...

A pair of Moluo horns growing on the top of the head are the objects of the devil...

Like a goddess or a Bodhisattva, a woman dressed as a nun smiles, which shakes the sanity, rationality, and moral ethics of those who see her.

"How, how..."

Kanzaki Kaori felt a slight dizziness attack, and his sense of balance and reality were being shaken. He stared at the other party in shock and anger, and the seven swords in the seven days were suddenly unsheathed!

However……

"Human beings are all immature beasts. They can be said to be frothy fruits that eat desire, indulge in desire, and melt into desire -"

The Demonic Bodhisattva still just smiled, and that smile was chilling. She looked at the two magicians opposite her, as if she was looking at two tiny insects and ants that were destined to be unable to escape from the palm of her hand.

…

…

"Who are you, and you dare to stand in front of me?"

There was a naked and undisguised murderous intent in the deep voice. The red-based man gave people a great sense of oppression. His gloomy and fierce eyes were looking straight ahead.

Fire on the right.

The chief and de facto leader of the "Right Seat of God", the darkest department of the Roman Orthodox Church, known as the "right of the right", in charge of red, right and "fire" among the four attributes, and has the "godlike" "The nature of Michael.

He was in a very unhappy mood. This sudden holy war made it impossible to implement many of his ideas and plans. However, as a member of the Cross, he had no way to reject God's New Covenant and must follow God's will to participate in this " Eastern Expedition".

But he was still in a bad mood, especially when he wanted to make a quick decision, act alone, and rush all the way to the target location, but was stopped by someone.

Blocking the road in front of the fire on the right is a white-haired man. He is wearing a complicated and noble dress, and has the temperament of a wise king. His eyes are calm and wise, and he quietly confronts the angry uncle on the right. watching.

"I am--"

As he whispered this, a trace of confusion flashed through his mind.

Finally, a strange yet familiar name emerged from his memory, leaving him convinced.

"…Solomon, the Magic King."
