Versatile: Alternate World

1006  Final Task

The weapons that can slay and put down a god for good. The real weapons based on the replicas that King Arthur wielded are all located in Agartha. This isn't just something that I have expected but to think that place that we can't access last time was very significant in this final attempt to defeat the Goddess of Life.

Both weapons contain devastating power that getting a hold of even one of them is more than enough to injure the Goddess of Life to an extent and if both weapons are in my possession, it can outright bring her down for good.

Tojiro fixes his coat and puts back the hoodie that got removed by me during our initial scuffle before he returns to his forge. I sat up after feeling a little bit better and saw him finishing the weapon he was making and carrying it over to me.

"Remember the last time you were here, Manato? I promised you about the weapon that I was keeping from you. And like I said, I will give you this once you are nearing your journey's end. Since you are close to the very end and you are on a quest to take the weapons that can bring down a god, having this be devoured by your Devourer would be the most ideal thing as this will stabilize your weapon and allow that dragon to eat the Excalibur and Rhongomyniad without any complications. After all, those weapons are not something that a human should acquire and be devoured by the Devourer. This weapon is also necessary for you to expel both weapons out of the Devourer once their tasks are over."

"Huh? So they are not permanently devoured?"

"No. Even the bottomless stomach of that dragon does not digest the two weapons and can only acquire their power. Once their purpose is over, bring them back to their previous locations. They are not meant to be used for a long time or this world, the alternate world, and the world you originally reside in will be destroyed in the process. Therefore, this will allow the two weapons to be expelled from the Devourer later on."

"That powerful?!" I frowned.

"You underestimate the power of the ancient relics of the olden past. Both weapons are weapons that existed even before the two goddesses were born and before the gods ascended to their realm. You can say that those two weapons bring the world into balance and they are the weapons that keep this world safe from dangers."

If it is that dangerous...then that must mean, those weapons will not be an easy picking either. That will be troublesome.

Tojiro handed the weapon to me and as I received it, I could feel the heaviness of it like I was carrying a chunk of metal in the form of a sword. Although I can carry it just fine, this is indeed very heavy to my liking and I don't think I can use it as a weapon properly. That's when I suddenly hit a question after getting the sword.

"By the way, how do I carry this sword and the two guns back to the Alternate World? I am quite sure this is a dreamscape of mine, shouldn't that make these weapons remain here once I wake up?"

"Hahaha, don't worry. Although this dreamscape of yours can only be visited while you are asleep or unconscious, this place exists in the Alternate World but since it has limits on who will be able to enter the place, no one can enter this realm except those who are allowed, and that includes you. As for those weapons, they can be brought out here and to your current location just fine once you wake up. Even if it does not get carried once you wake up, I will send it to you instead. Now, go. Open your eyes and get started on your task. Your time is limited, you need to work fast."

As soon as he answered me and said those parting words, I was kicked out of the dreamscape.

...

...

"Are you sure, Master? You look pale..."

"Yeah, I am fine. What about the others?" I asked as my head felt groggy and I don't recall much with this feeling.

"Master..." Pixie couldn't say much and was hesitant to talk. That's when I remembered everything properly and now I realize why Pixie is hesitant.

"...I see. So they have died..." I felt a pain in my heart after failing to save everyone in the process.

"But Master! They can still be saved! According to Almira, they are not yet dead fully and can still be revived before confronting the Goddess of Life again!"

I was jolted in shock after hearing what Pixie just said. "Wait, what?

"Almira said that they can still be revived as long as you retrieve an item that can only be retrieved by you, Master. Although I haven't gotten the full details, you can go ask either your Mother, Queen Tanya, Izmir, or maybe Almira herself for the information you seek."

Hearing that I was about to stand up but then all the pain in my body started to enter all at once.

"Gah! F*CK!" I cursed as I fell to the floor, groaning in pain.

"Get more rest, Manato. It is not yet time for you to stand up and do some work," the voice of Almira can be heard in the doorway. I can't see her since I am slumped on the floor still trying to endure the feeling of intense pain in my body. It was like thousands of blades had cut me to pieces. The bruises on my arms and body seem to escalate the pain as well.

"N-no...I needed to...ugh..."

"Get some rest before you head out to fight. What can you even do with that injured body of yours? How can you even save them if you are already in that form that can't even stand properly? Get a grip and ensure that you are healed before you even think of venturing out," Almira's voice is authoritative now and even I can feel that need to comply with her.

But I can't. Especially since the lives of everyone are at stake. If I can't do this, it might be too late.

"I really don't want to do this. But you leave me no choice, Manato."

Before I can even react, a thud in my neck causes me to collapse and lose my consciousness once more.

"This is for your sake and for everyone else as well. Get well."Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update
