I Just Wanted To Read Re: Zero, But Now I'M A Protagonist Of Eroge
Chapter 117: The Unexpected Meeting
As Petelgeuse's body faded away, Subaru for the first time in a long time felt regret in his heart.
The black-haired youth swore he would have no regrets, knowing that if necessary he could change everything by dying, even though a part of him knew that if he died he would leave all the girls who believed him, he said, in addition to being able to curse the timeline he left behind.
Subaru noticed the last part of Petelgeuse's body left to see there was a bulge on one side of his hip, the bulge was rectangular and it was something with a book-shaped volume, he said, Subaru took a while to react.he threw away his Balance Breaker, "Null Reality" made Julius surprised by the power his rival had.
The black-haired youth knelt down and extended his hand towards the package.
Slowly throwing away Petelgeuse's clothes he found a black book that gave off a strange feeling, Subaru stared at the book for a few seconds before confidently grabbing onto it
'Petelgeuse Gospel'
Thinking as he picked up the book and opened it, revealing an unreadable language for Subaru, the young man tried to read the Gospel a little more just to have a headache trying to decipher what it said, saying, knowing that the Gospel is a copy of the Book of Wisdom created by Echidna, the Witch of Greed. He also knew that the last two copies of the Book were in the hands of Roswaal and Betty, the black-haired youth felt sorry for Beatrice as her version of the Book of Wisdom did not show any words centuries ago, knowing that the only emotional pillar Beatrice had was to wait for the arrival of "Him".
Subaru clenched his fists as he looked at the Gospel, Beatrice had a relationship with Petelgeuse she did not know what her nature was, but she knew that Beatrice liked her, so Subaru did not know how to tell Beatrice that Petelge ... No, Geuse is dead.
Perhaps dying with a smile calmed Betty's emotions a little.
"You're okay? Subaru?"
A worried voice rang out in Subaru's ears, making him wake up from his daydream.
The black-haired youth looked up to see who was talking to him.
With blond hair and double pigtails with curls, Ravel is closing in when Petelgeuse disappears.
The Phoenix girl showed clear attention to Subaru's current gaze, as her eyes showed a gloomy emotion, making Ravel immediately decide to remove Young Butler from her mind.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about a few things"
Subaru said to keep his own worries, which made Ravel pout because Subaru did not want to tell her that he was worried, while the two enjoyed each other's presence.
Julius furrowed his brows while tightly grasping the hilt of his sword, Subaru realized this and immediately asked the "Flawless Knight" what was wrong.
“Julius, did something happen?” Subaru asked while standing beside the purple-haired knight, trying to calm him down for them to tell him what happened.
"I just received a message from Ferris, it seems like they found a merchant working with the Witch Cult, his name is Ketty Muttart. It seemed that he had killed himself when they caught him, and they discovered that inside his carriage were some flint exploding at the slightest contact."
Julius warned while announcing that the matter had been resolved, allowing the completely tense Subaru to relax, with a sigh of relief, the black-haired youth sitting on the ground indicated that he was tired.
Subaru knew that Otto was the one who discovered the irregularities in the examination of the carriage, but seeing that he had found her just before Emilia boarded the train made Subaru really want to kiss the merchant (Non-Homo) with tears, he looked up at the sky realizing that all the problems Petelgeuse represented had ended, wanting to go see the girls at this moment the black-haired young man tried to get up only for his legs to fail.
"Haha..." Subaru laughed in relief as he felt that he could relax for at most about two days, even if it seemed like a short time, it was no problem for Subaru, after all the pressure almost killed him, reaching the point where he had even fainted from exhaustion, that and many other things.
Now that everything was over, Subaru felt that it was worth it, that the safety of the waifu and his friends was assured for at least these two days, it was quite a gift for Subaru.
"It seems that I am a little tired after taking all this power away" Subaru said as he stopped to look at Julius and Ravel, the young man looked at them once more before seeing the Gospel in his hands.
"...It would be best if you go first, Ravel goes with Rem and heads to Lady Emilia's carriage. Julius, I trust you more than you know, so I entrust Ravel's safety to you. And try to rest, you should be a little tired from all this long journey."
After Subaru finished speaking, Ravel seemed somewhat reluctant to leave Subaru alone in this place, but seeing how Subaru seemed to want to be alone, she sighed and turned around angrily, the Phoenix girl pouted a little, but after all Subaru's efforts, he believes he deserves some alone time.
'He opened his Balance Breaker, that on top of all the fatigue he had accumulated this week must have overwhelmed him... It's not that I care or anything like that' Ravel thought as she pouted her face and blushed at the thought she had imagined.he and Subaru were in an adult situation, Ravel shook her head to dispel that thought and turned to walk towards the village.
Julius looked at Subaru in amusement before going to follow Ravel's footsteps.
Trying not to say a word so that he would not direct his bad mood towards her, Subaru looked behind the two as they walked away through the shadows of the trees.
Then realizing that the two had left, the black-haired youth turned to the right to look at the system Notification.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
[Skill "Authority of Envy: Usurpation" has been activated, the following skill has been acquired: Affinity: Earth]
[Notice: The person killed has Authority, transferring the "Otoritas of Laziness" to the host ..]
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Subaru saw it could not help but get excited, with this ability he would become stronger.
Subaru also prayed that the variety he got would be strong, knowing that he could get something close to Subaru's original Invisible Hand, which was the real one, although the young butler would not complain if he obtained the Invisible Hand, as it would be useful to meet people like Regulus, due to being able to pass through the material, Subaru was able to stop the wives' hearts from being regular for a few seconds before reviving them, giving them enough time to kill Archbishop Greed.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
[The following skills have been acquired: "Authority of Sloth: Hidden Vortex"]
[Sloth Authority: Hidden Vortex]
[Allows the Host to create a Vortex out of which hands are invisible to the eyes of anyone except: Witches and Witch-related Beings. The host must have contact with the surface on which they want to make a hand, for example: If the Host wants to make a Vortex in the air, the Host must come into contact with the air. The vortex can also pass through anything the host touches, for example: A wall.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
"It's incredible..." That was all Subaru could say when he saw the extent of his Authority, he was actually expecting something worse, so having such an ability made the young butler quite excited.
Subaru wanted to immediately use his abilities, it felt like when he received his first console.
But he forced himself to calm down because he did not want to attract anyone's attention at the moment, the black-haired young man remained seated while observing the beautiful scenery of the forest before him, having gained this ability, and finally, he was able to do so, he believes he can stop Elsa without having to occupy her Balance Breaker, or at least he thinks that even though Elsa is faster than him, she is, if he could stop him with his Authority then he thought he could win easily.
After stopping Petelgeuse, the sound of the forest rang out again, which made a relaxed atmosphere for Subaru to think about his next action, the young man had an idea of what his Balance Breaker was up to, but made sure it wasn't. hurt him to anyone, so with that Subaru opened the system interface and went to the skill tab.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
[Sword Birth: One Blade, reload with fire]
[Allows the host to make a Sword in the air (Size depends on the number of Prana the Host enters), and then fire it as a projectile at a fairly fast speed]
[balance breaker Sword Birth: Null Reality]
[Allows the host to create a sword with enough power to negate aspects of reality (Strength, Life, Death and Existence), and, negating one's strength would render their Skills unusable as long as Balance Breaker was activated, though, Denying one's life will cause the recipient to enter a state of false death at the time the Balance Breaker is activated (If the person is weaker than the host, their life may be extinguished resulting in the same death), and the, denying one's death would make the recipient come to life again (The person must die at most 1 minute before using the Skill), denying the existence of a person would make the receiver disappear from the existential plane itself (If the person is stronger than the host would simply move it to a random point more than 30 kilometers away from the host). Right now only the Force can be negated, all other abilities will open up as the host gets stronger,
Maximum time to activate Balance Breaker: 10 seconds,
Balance Breaker can be reused without impact after: 23 hours 55 minutes]
[Warning: Sword Birth has evolved into a Longinus-type Sacred Gear, the Sacred Gear can create its own consciousness, carefully.]
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
“Since when have I been this strong?” Subaru wondered as he held his head from the pain of thinking about what would happen if people found out that he had this ability, he thought most would go crazy for having this kind of power just scares people, it was like Reinhard, some saw him as a hero and others saw him as a monster, he said, although most of the other kingdoms.
Subaru removed all the notifications from his system and decided it was time to get up, so he exerted strength to his feet by lifting himself off the ground while clearing the dust from his pants.
The black-haired youth stretched so that his legs would not numb.
As he did so, he suddenly felt an overwhelming presence behind him. Subaru immediately broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that whoever was behind him could finish him off with little effort.
"Wow, it seems like my encouragement is enough to push you to be this strong... It really makes me happy."
Said the female voice that Subaru could relate to the voice she heard in her mind while activating her Balance Breaker, that was all.
Subaru was getting nervous.
Subaru slowly turned around slowly hoping not to cause any discomfort to the person behind him, Subaru managed to turn his body completely to see who was emitting such pressure in the surroundings, what Subaru did not expect was such a powerful aura coming from someone beautiful.girl, he expected something more like a monster or something, then immediately his mind started to work.
The person in front of her is what you can call the embodiment of Beauty, a girl so beautiful that not even God would dare touch her.
With her transparent platinum hair and beautiful dark blue eyes, she wore a white cloth.
Subaru gulped while recognizing the person in front of him .. more precisely the Witch.
"Nippodrome..."
