Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Special Screening: Maiuri Judgment (3)

Having said that, I immediately took out Haniel.

"Haniel Calydoscoope!"

[Unique skill Haniel temporarily changes to unique skill Michael.]

[Due to the effect of Trait: King of Spirits, most of Haniel's penalties are mitigated.]

Then Haniel, the broom-form Angel with its handle end embedded here and there with what looked like metal or gems, changed its form and soon transformed into Michael, the long key-form Angel shaped like a giant stone staff.

[Constellation 'Savior of Corruption' mutters that this time it's himself.]

Ignoring the message that appeared, I immediately approached Cherubim using a retreat and thrust Michael into Cherubim.

"Michael! Segva!"

[Unique skill Michael's special ability Segva (Seal) is activated.]

[Due to Segva's effect, the target's abilities are sealed.]

Cherubim, realizing too late that something was wrong, let out a roar, but the situation was already over.

"Michael's ability stopped Cherubim's spiritual power supply.... Now attacks will work! Everyone, attack with all your might!"

Having sealed Cherubim's spiritual power supply and all other abilities entirely with Michael, I relayed that to the other spirits.

"Got it! Sandalphon! Halvan Herab!"

"O-okay! Zadkiel!"

"Got it! Camael Megiddo!"

"Good! Let's go! Yuzuru!" / "I agree, Kaguya!"

""Raphael! El Kanaf!""

"Alright! Gabriel! Fantasia!"

Under the concentrated attacks of the spirits, Cherubim, which had taken no damage until just moments ago, began to sustain damage.

Its wings burned from Camael's attack, buffed by Gabriel; its horns shattered from Raphael's attack, buffed by Gabriel; its drill part froze from Zadkiel's attack, buffed by Gabriel; and it received wounds all over from Sandalphon's attack, buffed by Gabriel.

"Sephira!"

To finish it, I reached out into the air. Red, blue, dark purple, orange, and purple energies gathered and a single sword was born. Gripping that sword, I shouted.

"Sephira! Mishpat!"

At that moment, Sephira emitted a bright light and instantly became a giant sword of light. I swung Sephira directly at Cherubim.

Cherubim's entire body, cut by Sephira, then turned into feathers, scattered, and melted into the air.

[You have defeated the boss Cherubim (Thunder Sanctuary).]

[You have achieved a tremendous feat.]

[You have acquired 50,000 coins as an achievement reward.]

"Phew... phew... It's over."

I caught my breath for a moment and looked at Maiuri.

"! Maiuri!"

I couldn't help but be surprised when I saw Maiuri.

That's because Maiuri's body was currently turning into particles and disappearing in real time.

"Ah... in the end... it comes to this..."

Maiuri, whose body was gradually turning into particles and disappearing, muttered as if she had expected this to happen.

Then Maiuri looked at me, smiled faintly, and spoke.

"Yuseong.... When I first saw you today, I don't know why, but you felt warm."

Having said that, Maiuri pointed to her own chest and said.

"I wondered what this warm feeling was.... And after going on a date with you.... I think I now know what this warmth is..."

At Maiuri's words, I carefully picked up the disappearing Maiuri and asked.

"That is.... what is it?"

"Love."

Then Maiuri looked at me and said.

"I... fell in love with you at first sight, Yuseong."

Maiuri's voice was tinged with regret and sorrow.

By now, most of her body gone, Maiuri spoke with difficulty.

"....Yuseong.... I love you.... truly...."

Maiuri's lips met mine.

[You have sealed the character Maiuri.]

[The character Maiuri's spiritual power dwells within you.]

[You have acquired the unique skill Cherubim Lv. 1.]

Then Maiuri completely turned into particles and vanished, but...

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall activates strongly.]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall looks at the character Maiuri.]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall absorbs the character Maiuri.]

Along with that message, Maiuri, who had become particles, dwelled within my body.

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall smiles as if satisfied.]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall assigns a role to the character Maiuri.]

[The person Maiuri has become the administrator of the 1st Zone.]

[You have acquired a new story.]

[You have acquired the Legend-grade story 'Savior of Spirits'.]

[You have reached the fourth 'Ending credit'.]

[Cast: Kang Yuseong]

[You have acquired 500 coins as a performance fee.]

[All penalties placed upon you have been lifted.]

As the continuously appearing messages ended, I soon returned to the Theater Dungeon.

"What... how did...."

[Huh?... Where is this?]

At that moment, Maiuri's voice was heard inside my head.

'Maiuri? Are you okay?'

[This voice is Yuseong? Where are you!? I don't see you around here?]

Maiuri and I were flustered, wondering what was going on.

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall answers: I absorbed Maiuri.]

'■■'s Wall!?'

[■■'s Wall?... Did you save me?]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall answers: Yes.]

At ■■'s Wall's answer, I cautiously asked.

'■■'s Wall.... does Maiuri have to stay inside the wall forever?'

[What!? I don't want that! This place is full of weird — mmph!!]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall says to Maiuri: It would be better not to say unnecessary things, Maiuri.... You might completely disappear if you do.]

As ■■'s Wall warned, Maiuri trembled slightly and spoke.

[O-okay... I understand.]

[Unique skill ■■'s Wall nods at Maiuri's answer and answers your question: I can let her out for a while.... But not for too long... Otherwise, she'll be annihilated by probability.]

'Really?... I understand for now.... By the way....'

Looking around, it seemed Kim Dokja's party had already gone up ahead.

"I need to hurry."

I immediately headed up to the 7th floor and then ran towards the 8th floor.

'Please, no more special screenings or whateve—'

No sooner had I thought that than a red spotlight shone on me.

[The special screening begins.]

This is the result of the roll for 'How to Survive'.
