For You This World I'll Destroy

The Time Dysplasia (End)

— 13 —

If my mission was to save Nadja's expedition team, I would be happy to go with Dagger from this hell. Especially when there are two Malice type S nesting in this place. William wrote it clearly. My mission is to seize the Moon Quartz from the White Order.

But how can I let them?

The rubble of a skyscraper, has been transformed into a makeshift hospital. In front of my eyes, lay dozens of heavily injured expedition team members. A foul pus smell pierced my nose, coming out from the leftover paper used as wound wrapping. Skinny all the members of the expedition, horrid to the bones.

“Our ration availability is almost up. Fortunately there were some water element hunters who participated in this expedition. However, after two months of drinking magic water, many people showed symptoms of mineral deficiency,” clear Dagger who also looked tired and thin, different from the beautiful girl I remember.

“Six months? Wasn't this expedition just launched a month ago?” my many.

Dagger led me to the window facing the sky. He pointed at the red moon shining in the sky. Like the eyes of a demon, the Moon moves here and there as if the eyes of a predator were looking for its prey.

“I don't understand either, but the moon is a magic that breaks the flow of time. Like an irregular river, Chrysant can find spots where the time runs longer. It... made us lose perception of time,” said Dagger whose hand was full of bandages.

My eyes caught a Malice in the streets of the city, crawling with her spider legs, raising her large head. Two tear-offs opened, dangling two pairs of tongues that fumbled the ground looking for a way. Grimacing horrified me to see that Malice. I've never seen such a disgusting creature.

“So it's Malice type S created White Order?” I said.

Dagger nodded, “Times we tried to escape from this place. But, the Predator easily got in our way. If.. there is no protective magic established Pathfinder Nadja in this building, of course Malice will attack this place,” he said.

Hmm, after fighting Khanza, I understand how strong Malice type S is. One Pathfinder is not enough to fight the monster, let alone a collection of Ruinminer and Chronicler with minimal fighting experience. Not only that, the expedition team is also full of civilians, researchers who can not move quickly.

Suddenly Dagger leaned his head on my shoulder, “But... If Chrysant comes.... Everything will be fine right?”

Chrysant's powerless answer no and destroy Dagger's hopes. So I stroked Dagger's hair quietly and whispered a lie,

“Yup, all will be fine, Dagger.”

… Wait.

I opened my eyes to see Khanza sitting on top of a distant building. He smiled and waved his hand at me. G-Geez, Malice is crazy huh. How could he quickly track me?

But... If I don't obey him, what will he do with this expedition team? Although scared to death, I finally went to meet Khanza secretly.

“Yo, Chrysant. Healthy?” khanza asked who took off his skull mask and smiled.

I just stared at his red eyes which were the same as the moon in the sky.. From his outward appearance, Khanza has it all. A tall slim body like a model, a smile that is able to trap the heart in one attack and also a look full of mystery. She's like me when I grow up. But behind all that, Khanza is a terrible monster. The Reaper, the Malice that almost wiped out the human race is now standing before me casually.

“You must be wondering, why is the dreaded The Reaper, it turns out to be a very beautiful and charming woman?” asked Khanza who approached me and extended his hand,

“Of course, the reason is obvious isn't it? Khanza was once a Man.”

…! Soon Chrysant jumped back and prepared to pull out my dagger.

“Omong empty!”

Khanza closed his mouth and laughed amusedly, “I'm kria you're joking, but it turns out Chrysant really lost his memory huh?” he said, suddenly darting behind me. With her strong hand, Khanza grabbed my shoulder and whispered in my ear,

I plucked my blade and slashed at Khanza, but Malice's graceful nimble avoided it.

“...our agreement you will not touch those children!” my tent.

“Our agreement only applies on that day, stupid. Well, I'm confused as to why you're protecting Malice's children. You only prolong their suffering a day, Chrysant.

They will soon die, even without my intervention. Rather than living in vain like that, I would rather just eat their heart to become my strength right?” khanza licked his hand that was still red with blood,

“Aah...Creative are those humans too, uhh, White Order her name? Providing the essence of mana so great for Malice the defects they create. The hundred puppets alone managed to recover a small part of my strength,”.

Khanza clapped his hands hard and smiled, “Enough. I didn't call you here to pick you up for a fight,” he said pointing to the building where Dagger and his expedition team were hiding,

“Chrysant wants the kids safe, right? What if we work at all this?”

“... Cooperation? It's hard for Chrysant to imagine a strong Malice like you needs my help,” I said.

Khanza chuckled and raised his shoulder, “Well, how else. Khanza just woke up in this time, my strength is not perfect. If you have to take care of Emilia and her children, a strong person like Khanza will be troubled now,” he continued who pointed Malice head who was patrolling the road,

“Predator, they call it right? I want Chrysant to take out Malice's disability while Khanza takes out Emillia. Instead, Khanza would release Chrysant and the expedition team back to Alexandria. What an interesting offer, right?”

“How can I make sure you won't break your promise again?”

“Khanza always keeps her promise. If I like breaking promises, I should eat you that day even if you win, right?”

My breath, I don't seem to have a choice. I clenched my hand, hating myself so weak that I had to hope for the help of the rotten Malice in front of me.

“One, who is Emilia you mean? Two, why do you believe I can defeat the Predator, even though I myself have been troubled against you? Three, what's your plan, Khanza?” my question is to point three fingers at Malice, “If you can't answer these three Chrysant questions, forget this talk.”

Khanza slaps his hand, “Waaah, cute hamster trying to negotiate with a predatory lion? All right, I'll answer it,” said Malice who folded her hands, saying,

“Let Khanza answer your second question first. Heh, what a stupid question. If you don't believe in your power, who else will, Chrysant?” khanza.

Khanza summoned a black queen pawn in his hand, crushed and imperfectly missing the piece, losing part of its body and head.

Malice threw the piece like a toy, “Emilia has the Chalice of Impurity I was looking for. He is an S-type Malice named Endless. His unique strength allows—hmm, it would be more interesting if Chrysant saw it for himself,” said Khanza who then closely captured the piece, which he then closely captured,

“Dan about my destination, heh. Moreover besides destroying this damn world?” khanza said with a very concentrated intention to kill mixed with the overflowing amrah, he said,

“Does that answer satisfy Chrysant?” ask Khanza.

I clenched my hand, holding back the fear that was raining down on my chest. I thought Khanza was dangerous to the world! But, if his words are correct, there is no way I can defeat two S-type Malice in this city. In order to save Dagger and the expedition from this city, I have no choice.

“Good. But remember this Khanza,” I said that I held my fist at Malice, “One day, I will definitely stop you! You got a problem?”

Khanza smiled faintly and replied, “No, not at all, Chrysanthemum. I'll look forward to that day."
