396. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [167]

「Barara, don’t be so worried. I am the Immortal Bacchus, remember? Something like this won’t faze me.」

「That’s a story from decades ago! If you used “Perfect Regeneration” for five of us with that sick body… That’s just…」

Rose clenched her fist tightly, and trembled.

「That said… I can’t let my precious granddaughter and her friends die, now can I?」

Bacchus-san scratched his cheeks, as dark red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

「I am sorry, Bacchus-san. Thank you!…Thank you very much!」

I bowed down and showed my heartfelt gratitude.

「I just did what was obvious. Gratitude is not needed. Instead, get ready to escape. That sand user is still alive.」

The moment Bacchus-san said that,

「Sand Whale of Purification, Third Form – Sin Eating Black Whale.」

「Arise -〈Hydra〉.」

A giant sand whale and an evil poisonous dragon rose from far ahead.

「「「「「「Wha!?」」」」」」

Everyone gasped.

「Has the poison user also recovered? These guys are really persistent.」

Bacchus-san said, heaving a heavy sigh.

「Allen Rodore. I must kill you even if it costs me my life. You must die before the “Darkness of House Rodore” awakens, before the “Seal of House Rodore” breaks!」

「Where are you going, bro? I will be too sad if you leave without me!」

A one-armed Von Mustang and a bloodied Deal Reinstadt.

Two true soul dress users, giving off a tremendous killing intent, slowly appeared from the depths of the trees.

「I-Impossible…」

「W-We are not even on the same level…」

Ria and Rose stood up petrified.

「So this is the true power of a true soul dress user…」

「Ha, haha… Even the great Lilim-sama can’t win this one…」

「No matter how you think about it, it’s over for us though…」

The president, Lilim-senpai, and Ferris-senpai were prepared to die this time.

(Dammit… what do I do!?)

The situation has taken a turn for the worst again.

Bacchus-san is at death’s doorstep after using the power of 100 Million Year Sakura.

And I, for some reason, can’t seem to use darkness at all from a while ago.

(What happened, Zeon!? What happened to you!?)

With that infinite darkness, I would not lose even if I have to take on Von and Deal at the same time.

But no matter how much I called, Zeon didn’t reply.

Maybe it was an influence on the thing Von called, “Seal of House Rodore”.

(…No, No, No! No! Don’t give up! There must be some way… some way to survive through this situation. There must be a way…)

As I was desperately wracking my brain,

「It’s been more than 200 years. I have lived for a long time, indeed.」

Bacchus-san muttered in a tone of resignation.

「Kid, take Rose and the others and escape. I will take on both of these fools.」

And he stood in front of Von and Deal alone.
