Chapter 95 - The Conclusion of the Match and the Stairway to Heaven

In an instant. The air on the battlefield trembled.

"—Shuno Gessen."

The Black Moon Swordsman, Yuto Mikazuki, lowered his stance deeply, holding his blade in a low guard. A darkness like gravity began to gather around the sword.

It was his ultimate technique, one that could "sever even space itself." With this single, deadly strike, he had obliterated countless powerful foes.

"...Mother, watch me."

That "doll of light" sitting on the throne smiled.

"Do your best, Yuto."

"Uooooooooooh!!!!"

Yuto kicked off the ground.

In that moment, an impact like twisted gravity ran through the air.

His body soared, and the black blade drew a lunar arc as it ripped through space.

...However.

In that moment.

"Heee!!"

"Fire!!"

DOOON!!!

Suddenly, a duet of exploding "farts" erupted!!!

Defray's orcish fart combined with Koni-chan's trollish flame fart, evolving into a massive explosion accompanied by an unprecedented level of sound, stench, and shock.

"Guh, I can't see...!!"

Smoke and a foul odor filled the space, and the Moon Flash lost its target.

"Damn it..."

It was then.

"Doryaaaaaaah!!!! Wok Frisbee!"

BAAAN!!

The iron wok thrown by Defray flew through the air and struck Yuto square in the face.

"Bugoh!!?"

"Now's our chance!!"

Koni-chan, cloaked in flames, charged at Yuto like a demonic fireball and tackled him!!

Yuto's body flew through the air and rolled to the base of the throne.

At that moment—

"Ah... Mother!!"

The impact of Yuto's body knocked the doll on the throne from its chair.

It hit the floor, and particles of light danced in the air.

Yuto reached out his hand.

"Mother!! It's hot, it's so hot! Help me, Mother!! I'm, I'm... scared..."

In that instant, the rising flames gently enveloped the doll.

The burning doll spoke quietly.

"It's all right, Yuto... I'll always be by your side..."

"Mother... I... I wanted to be happy this time..."

Yuto's voice, engulfed in flames, trembled faintly.

—And then.

"Be reborn into a happy family in heaven... Yuto..."

"It's a pity to burn to death."

Finally, Koni-chan gently purified their two souls with the Holy Troll Flame.

A warm wind blew through the area.

Particles of light danced upward as their two souls ascended to the heavens.

"Mother..."

"...See you again, Yuto."

His form was no longer there.

Only the sound of Yuto's katana, Oborozuki, slowly falling to the ground echoed through the quiet battlefield.
