Meikyuu Toshi no Antique Shop

He (...) appeared, trying to crack an army of phantom riders.

One who crosses a giant neckless black horse (headless) (Horseman).

(Dura) A knight without a neck (Han) wearing a nearly broken armor.

Sleeping Ghost (Sleepy Hollow), Black Distorter (Chrome Dawg).

He is a horrible undead monster with various callings and anecdotes.

But the original is human.

The leader of the Knights who lost their lives on this fourteenth basement floor.

Adonis L. Amberlight.

He was just one brother of Anemone, undead by the curse of "Hundred Nights (Pandemonium)".

I didn't miss throwing away something black he was carrying.

Flew up into the air. That's out of sight.

Under circumstances where I can barely even move my gaze, I wasn't even allowed to chase it with my eyes, but I can predict that it would fall toward this one.

I had to avoid it immediately, but was restrained by the demonic eye of the Phantom Rider, unable to move.

"Ugh...................................................!

I can see something coming up off the wind.

Instead of avoiding it as it is, it cannot be prevented and will be hit directly.

There's no way to exchange it, just before that I was ready...

◆

Side impact.

disoriented and fall, surprised by unexpected events

The sound and vibration of something hitting the ground hard after a slight delay. The dirt sand rises in abundance and comes down in momentum. Dust drifting on one side of the perimeter and covering your sight.

I didn't know what had happened and I was confused.

Right in front of me is a huge black chunk that was supposed to kill Anemone.

That is not substance. It was a black spear composed of something like a consolidation of thought.

And the odd pair beside you.

One is a warrior with a giant body. He is wearing a helmet like a bucket (bucket), covering his entire body with boneless armor. The chest was engraved with a hundred grasses of cross indicating the temple's affiliation.

The other is a small warrior. Far eastern wind armor - wearing a world-foot, old-fashioned mask. I guess it's a samurai.

I hear I was helped by these two.

I remember where I saw that look.

"You."

An old man's face calls out before he tries to thank you.

"How far are you on the road grass! Are you directional tone-deaf! Are you lost! Enemy line, right? Are you stupid? Are you going to die?

I suddenly ate a sermon.

"No. I'm glad you found me safe. I was worried that it would go off on the way. You gonna be okay?

At the same time, the barrel helmet has a bright voice, which makes me feel comfortable.

"I'm lost because of you. What are you going to do?"

"But it was this reddish one who popped up saying he was going to repay me"

"Please don't say anything extra. I don't remember asking Mr. Talho to accompany me in the first place."

"Ma'am, stick together. Does that make you hate me?" The bucket helmet said as he glanced at this one.

"The elementary school just came to repay you."

"Yaya."

They (...) were some very noisy people.

I have seen it among the seekers who took part in the Hundred Ghost Hunt.

Both are fiercely armed, but to be seen from their voices, they were young daughters in the contents.

It's a confusing outfit, Anemone thought.

"Okay. Fix it there"

"Something? You want to do it? Shall we? Take it and stand up."

"Ma, wait. Thank you for your help. But I don't have time to play."

I ate the candlestick and watched the anemone, but I broke it in between returns.

I wonder what it is, these two.

"... you're right"

"I have no choice."

Beyond the dust that has faded I see countless black shadows.

The Phantoms are already nearby.

◆

The bucket helmet seems to be capable of prayer.

When he set the mark on the spot and began to pray, the great shield in his hand shone brightly.

The resentful spirits that surrounded them reacted to it. You will be half-walked at the same time, and you will no longer be attacked.

"It's a prayer for 'Evil Spirit Dispersal (Turn Undead)'. If you're angry, you won't be stepping in with this."

Instead of the barrel helmet that keeps praying, the old man's side explains it.

"Can we just run away like this?

If the grudge spirits would have avoided it, the exit was opened as well.

"Unfortunately, it won't be possible. Unless you are a trained high priest, this prayer technique is difficult to achieve while walking."

"Either way, I want to retreat. I don't think the three of us can beat each other up."

"Right. If you can, you should join your people first."

That's what the old man said as he nodded.

"I just don't have that technique. While we push the spirits away with force, it's obvious which rides will catch us."

"I have a plan."

Anemone's hand was held by a two-handed sword full of rust.

It was already tapped into magic. scattering light muscles.

Activate the Electric Hammer Sprinkle (Carado) Ichigo (Borg) as originally planned to destroy the Grievance Spirit behind it and create a path.

"I'll make my way out."

"I'll make sure it (...) involves allies who might be ahead of you when you let go, don't you?

"Ugh."

I was losing it.

There was no thought about the possibility of a mutual argument.

Indeed, the power of thunder hammers is extensive. If the other Seekers have arrived near here, the damage will be done.

That's very bad.

"Then we'll have to turn to both the Horsemen."

There is no other way to make use of this sword.

I just don't see how effective it would be against the Phantom Ride. It won't work at all. I wish I could wipe them out like the spirits.

"So you mean fight, right?

"I guess it's inevitable"

"... you're coming."

The barrel helmet pinches my mouth with a quiet voice.

Black spears were unleashed again from among the approaching Phantoms.

The aim is precise, and he falls for the anemone.

"Elementary students will shoot you down"

That's what the old man declared.

Pull out the knife. At some point, countless fires hover around her.

When she paid the knife to creep up from the bottom, the fire started at the same time.

It flies like an arrow and collides with a black spear in the air.

"Shit."

The old man's face struck his tongue.

The fire lost momentum and misted lightly.

But it worked. The misguided black spear crashes in the wrong direction.

He said the old man side was going to shoot him down, and he seemed to regret it but it was enough.

They seem pretty armed.

The Grieving Spirit never came forward, and it precisely eliminates the arrows that the Phantoms fly toward us.

Anemone is ready immediately.

As I let the two of them back down, I wave a two-handed sword that shines like gold.

"Electric Hammer (Carado) Ichiki (Borg)!!"

Dazzling light overflowing with the roar.

A giant lightning bolt that reappeared.

out of the sword. It goes to the march of the Phantom Ride, which extends in gibberish and branches in fine detail.

The Phantoms are pierced, torn, and disbursed.

"Ask for the rest of the Phantom Ride (...)"

"I don't think so."

"I understand."

They moved out in two replies.

◆

Anemone also rushes out again.

Most of the phantom rides hit directly from the front have disappeared without a trace. But it hasn't been wiped out yet. Only half of them could be defeated. The remaining dozen bodies were only damaged.

Proceed with a sweeping slash of the undefeated horseman unable to move on one knee. Many of them are moving slowly, and they haven't got a hand on this one yet.

Most importantly, he was still there, too.

Ten more steps at a distance.

A knight without a neck still doesn't move off the spot.

Keep your knees down to the ground and your hands crossed.

Instead, a black horse without a neck (Koshta Bawer) is down. It looks like she is experiencing bubbles and cramps and cannot move immediately.

Has he perhaps exhausted himself with the power of a thunderhammer? It was a direct hit, so even if the armor stayed, only the soul could have ascended.

The next six steps.

My legs are heavy.

I was beginning to feel the weight of armor that should have been as light as a feather until earlier. Still seemingly magical, but time was running out soon enough.

Four steps later, he moved out.

Undo the defensive posture to reveal a standing, burning armor. There is a huge sword in my hand.

Anemone was wielding a sword.

To defeat a knight without a neck, you need to destroy the armor, which is the cost, or sever the joint of the armor. The aim is torso. It's a heartbeat. I can't take a blow. But if I kept shooting, I should have been able to break it.

The next two steps.

But I'm not far enough to turn back.

You can't run away.

Maybe this is destiny.

I tell myself that now is the time to save my brother's soul.

And -.

The blade meets the blade.

Heavy impact transmitted to the arm.

Squeeze and accept the full force of your body.

There is him over the crossing steel partition.

I'm so close.

I don't have the head I'm supposed to have.

I can't hear you breathing. I can't even feel the heat that's supposed to drift from the gap in my armor. No sign of being human.

All I have is a creepy, vain presence.

I learned that he was no longer the brother I knew.

But still, Anemone couldn't help but say.

"... Long time no see. Brother Adonis."

That was my first reunion in three years.
