I Am No King's

Chapter 273 – Mother pt 2

~Hervia POV~

　

　

Honestly, I don't feel good. What's the matter? I already knew that my chances of winning were small, but this feeling had just arisen. What was?

Although I admit my current situation is not good enough, it is surrounded by attacks from all directions, but this is not what I am worried about. In fact, quite the opposite. The more Agade members swarming around me, the more likely it is for Orion to win. I am very confident in my control. And even I made the tentacles around my body small and fragmentary, making sure the Lugalgin control-removing weapon did not work.

However, despite being in a favorable position, my feelings were really bad.

"Tante Hervia!"

A familiar scream sounded. I looked to the right, at one of the city streets that was supposed to be empty. In the middle of the road, a male figure, Lugalgin, got off the motorcycle. Without saying anything, he took off the coffin that was on his back.

I immediately raised my alertness. As far as I can tell, the coffin Lugalgin was carrying contained weapons. If he opens it to me, there may be a missile or missile that will go straight towards me.

Eh? Whatisit? No additional missiles, missiles or bullets shot towards me. Inside the coffin was only one figure. Does that figure hold a gun? But no additional bullets were fired. I don't feel any metal coming from Lugalgin.

At that moment, for some reason, my chest felt tight. My body also felt a little weak

What's the matter? Does Lugalgin use poisonous gases? No way! If he used poison gas, he would also become a victim.

The figure....in front......Lugalgins.....

Without being able to control it, my gaze focused entirely on the figure inside Lugalgin's coffin. I narrowed my eyes, trying to get a clearer vision among the fast-moving tentacles.

No..maybe.....

At that moment, my fingers were stiff. Besides, I could feel all the blood flowing so fast to the brain. Regardless of anything, my mouth only shouted one name as loud as it could, exhausting all the air in the lungs.

Everything went dark, gone. There was nothing in my eyes, other than two things, Illuvia's body being closed and the man beside her.

"LUGALGINN!!!!"

I stood, firm. Despite seeing dozens of tentacles crashing rapidly, I remained standing firm, motionless.

One second passed. Five seconds passed. No matter how long I wait, those tentacles won't reach me.

In the space of not five seconds, Aunt Hervia deployed all the tentacles she controlled to attack me, eliminating her defenses. At once, dozens of bullets lodged in the body of Aunt Hervia.

Why not hundreds of bullets? Because Ninmar is moving forward. Apparently, Ninmar and Umma thought that even though hundreds of bullets penetrated Hervia's aunt's body, there was still a few seconds before she was completely killed and her control was lost. This assumption is based on the opinion of some experts where humans are still alive for 8 seconds even though the head is separated from the body. And, 8 seconds is enough for all those tentacles to kill me.

Therefore, it seems, Umma and Ninmar ordered all personnel to cease fire. At the last moment, only Umma opened fire.

Just then, Ninmar came forward and stabbed Aunt Hervia with his sword. Since the sword Ninmar was wielding was a control-busting weapon, granting me, his attack would stop the tentacles from charging at me.

And their plan worked. A one-meter-long sword pierced through the chest of Aunt Hervia.

[Gin, we did it!]

Dor dor dor dor dor

I dropped the coffin containing Illuvia and took the rifle from the arsenal. Without babibu, I fired four shots at Aunt Hervia's hands and feet. My shot was practically making Aunt Hervia fall, face down, onto the cold concrete road.

"Don't let your guard down!"

[Eh?]

I could hear Ninmar and Umma being shocked through the earphones from being yelled at.

"Go! Spread out! Make sure there are no Orion members around who can attack. Our lives haven't been safe in this town, okay?"

[Ba-good!]

I've seen that scene many times in comics and movies. When the student is accomplished and happy, he will look towards the teacher. The teacher, too, looked at the student proudly. In other words, they are careless. And because of his carelessness, the scene immediately changed drastically in the next panel. At that moment, there must be a moment that instantly killed the disciple. Either the enemy that is hiding, or the enemy that has not really been killed, or the other.

I don't want those moments in the comics and the movie to come true. I don't want any other Agade members killed. I don't want to.

According to him, Ninmar went from beside Aunt Hervia, leaving her sword. Umma's presence also felt away from this place.

After putting the sniper inside Arsenal, I closed the coffin lying on the road and carried it, approaching towards Aunt Hervia.

"Of course...via....."

When I got near Aunt Hervia, I put down this coffin and took Illuvia out, laid her down next to Aunt Hervia. Of course I made sure Illuvia's face, which was closed, was facing Aunt Hervia.

"Thank you, gin."

Even though she was about to die, and her daughter's body was in plain sight, Aunt Hervia still thanked me. Wh why? Because I gave him a chance to see his daughter's face at the end of the breath.

If it was someone else, maybe they would focus more on insulting and throwing curses at me, but, Aunt Hervia doesn't. And, honestly, for me, it would be easier if Aunt Hervia also insulted and threw a curse. However, I won't dispute that. I will accept Aunt Hervia's thanks and carry it on for the rest of my life.

And, I wouldn't say "if auntie would cooperate". I will not step on and insult Aunt Hervia's decision at the end of her life. Rather than that, I prefer to monitor the situation.

Through the smartphone screen, I saw a map filled with red and blue dots. In a short time, the red dots are reduced. These red dots disappeared when they met the three blue dots that were moving all over the place. I assume these three blue dots are Ninmar, Umma, and Inanna.

I chose to look through the smartphone screen, not the projection into the air, because I didn't want to distract Aunt Hervia. Let him spend his time focusing on Illuvia.

"Illuvia, forgive mom. I can't protect you. Sorry....."

Illuvia's death was not one of Hervia's aunts, but her own fault. However, it is normal for aunty Hervia, as a mother, to feel guilty. Right now, he must be pondering, roughly what he could change in the past to prevent Illuvia's death. Although all of that is just a dream, but, this is what makes it worth mentioning being a mother.

"Gin, I'd like to make one request,"

"Yes, auntie?"

"Take off this sword and turn my body. And, please, put Illuvia over my body. I want to hug her one last time."

I don't feel any threat from Aunt Hervia's words at all. However, just in case, letting my index finger be scratched by Ninmar's sword and rubbing blood onto Aunt Hervia's chest, directly into her body.

According to aunt Hervia's request, I made her body recline and put Illuvia on top in a prone position. Though not asked, I moved both of Hervia's aunt's hands behind Illuvia, making her hug Illuvia.

"Thank you, gin."

"Not to thank me."

I got up and walked away, giving myself time for Aunt Hervia and Illuvia.

I checked the phone screen again. Eventually all the red dots on the map disappeared.

[Gin, with this, Orion has been officially destroyed.]

Seriate
