"Boom!"

Before Griffith could take action, a gunshot rang out from behind. Sonia, who was using a gun for the first time, hit a medicine bottle a dozen steps away.

Is this, is this the first-grade learning ability? I have been practicing for a long time and I still can’t hit a target five steps away!

Sonia, who hit the first target, was also surprised. She stood by the wall, raised her pistol and jumped while shouting:

"Hey, Griffith, this thing is much better than a wand!"

The thick liquid was splashed down, and the goblins contaminated by the potion mutated instantly. It was like a ball of burst dough, or a broken pool, like bodily fluids spraying everywhere. The goblins came up.

Lin was splashed all over and exploded in the same reaction.

The sound of explosions kept ringing along the path.

In just a moment, before the students in the castle had time to leave the camp, most of the goblins on the path had dissolved into an indescribable mass of flesh. The other surviving little monsters were shouting and attacking with their bare hands.

Riffis was killed in the blink of an eye.

The piece of meat was still alive, and gradually changed into an octopus-like shape, and jumped forward.

"Sure enough," Griffith stretched out his arms, picked up the stunned Sonia and ran up the mountain, "Sure enough, there is a backup plan. If I act according to past experience, I will fall on the second floor.

On the third floor of conspiracy.

"The memories of the past are just the reality I saw, not the whole truth. Those layouts that I didn't have the opportunity to show will not disappear just because I didn't see them."

This jet-black octopus monster crawled on the snow at an astonishing speed. It absorbed the goblin's flesh and blood, and in the blink of an eye it became a monster the size of a bull.

The people in the castle were finally alerted. The associate professor leading the team and the resting students got out of the tent and encountered an indescribable monster running across the snow.

"Shadow Devourer!"

"The one on the Serenity Sea!"

Several first-year classmates shouted. Some of them had obviously received information from their families and had already made preparations.

Griffith rushed into the familiar lounge and left the rampaging monsters to the associate professors and classmates who had reacted. His first priority at the moment was to find Galadia and seek support from the elves and demigods through her.

!

Hey, where are the people?

The lounge was empty. Galadia, Lana and Fiona who were supposed to be gathered here were all gone.

"Sonia, where are they?"

"Ah, I, I don't know, I was still here when I first came out."

Only a few minutes after Sonia left the lounge, there was a commotion in the Keep. At this time, Galadia and Fiona disappeared.

The reason for their disappearance?

Damn it! Griffith grabbed the pendant on his collar.

I should have contacted Galadia earlier. Maybe it was the influence of the retracement or the trauma to my sanity. My attention was distracted... The key to whether the retracement can be reversed this time is to seize the time before Salorian's arrival.

The layout, specifically, is to contact the Elf Archon and Ms. Aviana to join forces to fight Salorian!

However, Salorian must have been able to calculate this key layout. His true body may not have arrived at the beginning of the retrospective, but there are his servants and even clones in the Watch Castle!

Velonos is in Nethergarde!

“The everlasting light that bestows kindness and shelter,

"Guardian of nature and balance,

"The guide on the endless journey..."

Griffith prayed loudly with Galadia's pendant. Even in this time and space, before the pendant was made, the Queen of Silver Moon and Starlight was still caring for Galadia.

The guidance of the goddess will deliver the call!

"boom--!"

Before Griffith could find Galadia's spirituality, the overwhelming psychic impact shattered half of his body.

Griffith, who fell into the Barrier Breaker, could not withstand the force and fell to the ground seriously injured on the spot.

Rubbles flew everywhere and the curtains burned. A twisted figure stepped out of the firelight.

Associate Professor Velonos appeared. A disgusting piece of flesh was attached to his body, which was constantly eroding and assimilating his body. The breath and power surging in the piece of meat were clearly Salorian.

He has come, and has arrived in the body of his own servant!

"It's over, bastard!" Salorian's voice resounded throughout the sky, as sublime as a god, "Where else do you want to escape? Who do you want to ask for help? Can the same trick succeed a second time in front of me?

"Look back and use up all the 'opportunities' in the final outcome!"

The overwhelming twisted aura turned into a chaotic and ferocious roar. Griffith felt that his body and will were disintegrating. Without support, it was impossible for him to defeat the dictator who possessed the three powers of magic, immortality and creator. "Defeat."

The last retrospective is about to begin. At the end of the game, he will be deprived of all authority and existence!

"Garadia..."

When it was about to end, Salorian stretched out his fingers and gathered the spiritual energy of destruction. Griffith called for the last time, but received no response from the elf lady.

The air seemed to be compressed, and the flow of time was slowed down. The sound and light disappeared, leaving only a simple outline, as if a black hole had swallowed everything. Then, pure light touched Griffith's body.

On the eve of the last flashback, Griffith prayed to the spirit world, and the one who answered him was the Queen of Silver Moon and Starlight!

"clang!"

Salorian's psychic impact hit the pale golden halo and bounced away. What was rippling around Griffith was the blessing of the God of Contract. It should not exist in this time and space, but it was truly tangible.

Griffith and Sonya's Contract.

"God of contracts and notarization,

"Guardian of order,

“Witnesses of the Eternal Scales,

"I beg you to listen and respond, to bear witness to our oath!"

Sonia knelt aside and prayed to the patron saint for protection. The god of contract heard her call.

"Ah, this..."

Salorian was stunned and didn't know what happened for a moment.

As the light of protection of the contract dissipated, Griffith sensed the aura from the distant beyond. On the other side of time and space, the favored ones of the God of Thunder and Storm shattered the ancient colossus, and the authority of another god was lost to God.

Share with your hands.

There, brave men who do not belong to this era are setting off the torrent of a new era, breaking free from the shackles with overwhelming force and shaking the mysterious imprisonment.

There was a voice in the dark telling him that the prophecy to protect the promise and encounter had been revealed, and there was a counterattack sword light waiting for him at the promised place.

"Your Excellency Salorian, the great dictator, I salute you," Griffiths hammered his chest with his remaining right hand and saluted with a military salute. "With the greatest respect, I launch a final challenge to you!"

"..." Salorian has not yet grasped the situation in front of him. Some things seem to be out of control.

Griffith motioned to Sonia and then said to the dictator:

"The power of 'Loser Eats Dust' forms a one-on-one match in the created time and space, gradually isolating external forces and depriving me of my help. Whoever wins in the end will become the god of the new world.

"But, Your Majesty the Dictator, this battle has gone beyond the boundaries between you and me. It is no longer Griffith who stands in front of you, stands in your way, and decides the outcome.

"Whether it is one's personal destiny or whether one can seize the 'opportunity', it is nothing compared to the will here now!

"These 'wills' really exist in the world and do exist. I call them -

""world"!"

Following Griffith's instructions, in front of the panicked and shocked Salorian, Sonia reloaded her gun and aimed it at Griffith's forehead.

"Boom——!"

…

"Ah, this, this is impossible..."

"Perhaps there is an error in the calculation, or it may be some kind of hallucination... 'The loser eats dust' should have isolated the intervention of the gods. They cannot enter reality and cannot interfere with my duel with Griffith.

"Having said that, it is not known whether the concept of gods actually exists. They are like floods, earthquakes, famines, riots, and ignorance. They are creatures that arise naturally and have no independent consciousness.

"The spokesmen of the gods can't even make their masters manifest in this world, but they want human beings to surrender. It's really stupid!"

Salorian stood up from the gravel.

The dim yellow wind was mixed with the disgusting smell of blood, and bursts of chaotic screams could be heard. Strong winds blew from the direction of the mountains, carrying screams, shouts and wailings of ghosts breaking and dying. The sky was stained red with blood.

This is the ending of "The Loser Eats Dust", the last flashback.

"Where is Griffith? Find him, kill him, and that's it!

"Each time and space of 'Loser Eats Dust' will lock the node related to me and him, which means that both of us must be nearby before it can be executed. Then, there must be another 'me' or my clone here.

.All in all, as long as Griffith is found, a reserve Extraordinary who falls to Sequence 9 'Recruit' is not worth mentioning.

"Hmph, hum, completely, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Salorian concentrated his attention and searched in the vast wilderness. Finally, he found——
