Divine Protection: The Pride System

Episode 30: The Perfect Plan

Her white hair that was one by one shone brightly like the moon in the night sky and revealed a plain beauty.

His eyes seemed to underestimate and trample all forms of life and death.

Accompanied by a smile mixed with innocence and cruelty.

The terror of fear from the young man bound and wrapped around the entire body and soul that was around the place.

Existence of the seven great sins that bear the sin of Pride, >Night Rogant< has appeared before Kizuna.

“Alright, let's start the main party, Ki,zu,na-chan♡”

“You... No...! How come?! What the hell is going on?! You should be dead!”

Kizuna's confusion reverberated throughout the dark forest, she completely could not believe what she was seeing.

What the hell is going on? Even though he kept looking for the answer, still he didn't get it.

There was too much to think about, from start to finish. All the events he saw were completely absurd.

An intruder, a strong little girl, a corpse from her acquaintance, and now a young man who should have been dead, but was now standing before her.

There was too much for him to think about, but he didn't know where to start.

Even though he was a majestic being, it was still too much for him.

After that—

“Yes well, to be able to achieve this all. I really am a hassle.”

—The young man just smiled a little, shrugged his shoulders, and said something different than Kizuna expected.

The young man did not answer his question at all, how could someone who should have been dead live again.

Is that some kind of optical illusion? Or it's a kind of regenerating Bless, no, it's impossible.

There's no way Bless's regeneration can bring a dead man to life. Then is it >Unique Bless< like her.

But, unfortunately he had never heard of anything like that before.

In fact, he had also never heard of Bless being able to control the darkness.

They are too mysterious, for the worst case it is >Unlimited Bless<.

Someone in this world who has >Unlimited Bless< setau Kizuna, just the Holy Sword only.

So is it possible that the young man is also an unknown user of >Unlimited Bless<, if it is true, Kizuna will not have any possibility to win.

However, his thoughts were instantly crushed with the young man's next sentence.

“Introduce my name Night Rogant, one of the seven great sins that carry the sin of Pride!”

The young man introduced himself as if he was really looking forward to this moment.

Kizuna's eyes widened in shock.

“Seven.. sin... large.”.

What Kizuna heard was really the worst among the worst.

Fear and despair immediately wrapped around his body and soul, his gloomy feelings he could not hide.

—{No! That's impossible! Why are there seven major sins here?!}, Kizuna in the lema with unrelenting confusion.

If he continued to think about it and analyze the information, perhaps his head would be crushed.

But he will continue to think about it. After all, Kizuna was a majestic creature.

He thought about all the possibilities and came to the right conclusion.

First, is what the young man said true? There's a chance he's lying, no, I don't think it's.

A person who claims to be the seven great sins is just a fool who is really stupid.

But it seemed that young man was not that type of person.

Everything changes for the worse, Kizuna knows very well what the existence of the seven great sins is.

They were crazy people who only thought of their own selfish desires, even though it had to take the lives of others.

Like the sinner who appeared six hundred years ago.

It was a terrible tragedy known to everyone in the world.

If his opponent was truly one of the seven great sins, then only death awaited him.

The evidence that the young man was alive is strong enough to suggest that he was one of the seven great sins.

Because, in addition to their madness, the seven great sins are also known to have powers that are beyond common sense.

So most likely the young man was still alive was due to his strength as one of the seven great sins.

Now that things were really getting really bad, Kizuna could not defeat the white-haired young man at all.

As he thought about it, suddenly something flashed through his mind like a bolt of lightning.

“... White hair... I've heard something before about this... Hah, is it possible?..”

Kizuna scrunched her forehead as she continued muttering something strange alone.

He thought of something about the rumors he had lately heard and became famous in the kingdom.

The creature who went around burning the villages around, then the white word that made Kizuna captivated by him.

It is not wrong, if it is like that, then everything must be related.

He gulped his saliva, his eyes could not turn from the young man's white hair.

When Kizuna tried to figure out the young man's expression, she just smiled as if she was waiting for something.

The fear wrapped around Kizuna's body grew stronger as she continued to face the young man.

“What, maybe, you >White Devil”

Her soft lips trembled as Kizuna said it.

He felt like his life had just waned as he spoke to one of the seven great sins.

“Oh, you're really slow to notice. But well, that's pretty impressive you can still think straight at times like. As expected of the great creature.”.

Rogant smiled in satisfaction and gave a standing ovation to Kizuna who was still curled up on the ground.

To breathe alone has made it very difficult, every word issued Rogant makes his reed goosebumps.

He wanted to immediately escape from that place, but it was a different matter again. He wasn't sure he could escape from there.

Other than the seven major sins, he also had to be wary of the black-haired little girl.

“Hmm~ Rogant, look! Meily's great, right? Meily has completed all the tasks Rogant gave her!”

“Yes yeah, you're great. Thanks to you all the plans went well. I'll give you a gift after this.”

“Ehehe, Meily is an adult!”

Meily put both her hands on her waist and puffed her flat chest with pride.

Rogant sighed softly and stroked the little girl's head gently.

“... Well, although there is one thing that is beyond estimation. Why is it that every one of my plans is always a different one?”

Saying that, Rogant simply smiled wryly and sighed tiredly.

As Rogant said, with every plan there is always one thing that surprises him.

The first was when he went to Meily village, when Eras' appearance was completely beyond Rogant's expectations.

And now his current plan also had one thing that was beyond estimation. That is—

“Actually I did not intend to kill Reyna-san, I intend to use it to... Well, that's for you, Kizuna-chan.”

Hearing her name on the call, Kizuna spontaneously gasped in shock and she felt her heart about to come out.

The great fear made his heart and body extremely heavy.

His face turned pale, he narrowed his eyes at Rogant trying to figure out his thoughts.

The night wind that was currently touching his body felt like a prick of a needle that continued to erode his soul.

But Rogant doesn't care. He smiled curvilinear like a crescent moon and continued on.

“And I was planning to get Reyna-san killed in your hand, but it seems like the plan has changed a little.”

That statement really left Kizuna speechless. His self-esteem seems to be being trampled.

His eyes filled with anger and hatred were directed at Rogant who was just smiling casually.

Kizuna really could not keep quiet after Rogant said something beyond common sense.

He had just heard of the heinous plan from the mouth of one of the seven great sins.

“You! What, you really want?!”

Exerting all her courage and anger, Kizuna asked Rogant with a sharp look.

His tail also danced behind him as if to depict him who was currently in a great rage.

However, even so, Rogant did not care about it at all. It was useless to threaten him...

Rogant would only smile wider and wider as if he were enjoying it.

Taking a deep breath, Rogant spoke in a voice that grew louder and louder.

“Ya of course! It was for Reyna-san's happiness. You know, death is a form of happiness and death when you are killed by the person who is most precious to you, it is true happiness! I've been thinking hard about creating a scenario where you two kill each other! I don't care who wins. If Reyna-san wins, then I just need to forgive her! If you win, that's good for me too! In the end I just want one of you to get true happiness!! This is pure desire of me! Amazing, isn't it?..”

Rogant's speech really sounded loud in Kizuna's ears, her eyes filled with fear and despair.

Everything he heard was too crazy to destroy his mind. The disgust for Rogant is on the rise.

It feels like his internal organs are being stirred up to make him want to vomit.

The time around him seemed to stop and could only hear the sound of the devil's speech.

Everything Rogant says is not nonsense or bullshit, if he wants to...

He could easily make two people who were supposed to love each other, to kill each other.

Such is the horror of an existence named >Night Rogant<, someone who bears the sin of Pride.

Meily was silent and nodded in agreement to all of Rogant's words.

Continuing his speech once more, Rogant spread out his arms and smiled like a demon.

“... Ahaha! Yeah yeah, it's a pity it can't be anymore. My meily has killed Reyna-san, I'm really sorry for not being able to make you kill each other. Yeah, but take it easy. I have told Meily to bring you together with Reyna-san. Meeting again with your favorite child, it must be very amazing, right?! Well, in the end, even though there were events that were beyond my estimation, at least the original plan still went smoothly as planned! Because here I managed to crush your mentality! Hehe! Ahahahaha!!”

Rogant ended his speech with a loud voice of laughter and a look of no mercy.

Kizuna after hearing all of her current speech curled up in despair.

His body was already limp, his mind was already limp, there was already nothing left of him.

“Ahaha... Ahahaha, ahhh... You're really scary.”

Kizuna smiled and laughed at herself which was very sad.

Kizuna really did not want someone to see her at this moment. He did not want someone to see his current condition.

If any of his acquaintances were to see him at the moment, he would definitely chase after him and instantly kill him.

His mind had gone mad, his mind had been crushed, whatever he was going through right now was just filled with madness.

Although Kizuna was a majestic being, she was still a sentient being with feelings. He could still have broken his mind.

All of Rogant's plans went well, everything went too smoothly until it was really very scary.

From start to finish, everything went according to plan. Well, even though there's one thing different.

But, it was not to the point of destroying all his plans. Rogant's plan went perfectly.

Alright, now it's time to complete the true goal of all of these perfect plans.

Taking in his cold breath, Rogant extended his hand towards Kizuna and said in a soft tone.

“Well, Kizuna-chan, I want you to do something for me.”
