Seventh Reincarnation
The Death of the Holy Queen

Flower gardens at Alkazard Palace.

The flower that had been in perfect bloom had now been destroyed due to the fierce fight between Ars and the twelve Demon King Girl Daughters.

Some of the corpses of the beautiful girls were lying on the flower bed and this flower garden had become their grave.

Their fresh blood soaked the ground and the beautiful flowers were covered in blood.

*Clank Clank Clank*

In the middle of the flower garden, the sound of the clashing of swords rang out clearly.

"Why are you fighting so hard? Surrender, you have no chance of winning."

Balmung in Ars' hands fends off the last remaining Demon King Girl Princess attack.

*Whoosh*

The girl did not respond, the sword in her hand formed an afterimage making it difficult to discern her true attack.

"Because it's your choice, then die."

Knowing there was no point in continuing to speak, Ars jumped forward, broke through the enemy's attack, and pierced the girl's chest.

Pulling the blood-stained Balmung, Ars was about to go to the scene of the battle of Areishia, but the girl spoke for the first time.

"It's all... It's not Solomon's fault... Her... A pathetic man..."

After saying that, the girl's body fell to the ground, and died.

"What does he want to say? Forget it, it's none of my business."

Shaking his head, Ars rushed into the Zohar Palace.

During his fight against the twelve Demon King Girl Princesses, Ars kept them away from the throne hall so that Areishia could fight without being disturbed.

Even for him, it was quite difficult against them. After all, his Inner Physique was filled with cracks and he could only access a bit of his strength. If he's in top shape, one look is enough to kill them.

Due to these limitations, Ars spent half an hour in the protracted fight.

By the time Ars arrived at the throne hall, the fight had reached the final stage.

Areishia's voice rang through the throne hall.

"Est, lend me your strength!"

"Yes Madam!"

The strongest Holy Sword clasped in both of his hands emitted a dazzling light.

Pushing back the darkness, Areishia ran while aiming for Solomon's heart.

"Est, this is the last time I'm using you as a sword. That's why—"

Everything happens in an instant.

The Holy Sword shone and shattered Solomon's heart in an instant.

"HHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!'

Giving a deadly cry of pain, Solomon was conquered from this world.

"Huh, huh, huh......"

Bathed in Solomon's black blood, Areishia fell to the ground.

"Mistress?"

The Holy Sword transformed into the form of the white-haired little girl, Terminust Est.

"It's okay... Est..."

To calm the worried Est, Areishiamen patted her head.

"Fua... Madame... Please stop it."

"Fufu, you like this, Est."

"Please don't tease me."

Although Est still put on an expressionless face, she turned her head with slightly flushed cheeks.

This was the first time since Areishia had met him Est showed such a reaction.

Areishia was happy with that.

For the girl who was slowly turning off her human emotions in line with the expectations of the public towards her as the Holy Queen, this was one of consolation for her.

"Sorry, Est... Actually, I want to pat your head like this again......"

Drenched in black blood, Areishia's voice trembled.

"Mrs.... What are you saying?"

"Really, I'm sorry."

"Mistress?"

In the next instant, Areishia's finger let out a stiff and shattered voice.

"Areishia!"

Hearing someone call her name, Areishia looked towards the source of the voice, and saw Ars running towards her with an anxious expression.

"Sister Ars..." Areishia's voice was trembling.

Ars arrived beside Areishia, seeing his body crystallize into stone, he held his once smooth hand now as hard as stone.

"What happened to you, Areishia?! Did Solomon leave a curse on you before he died?”

Ars felt Areishia's aura growing weaker quickly.

"Mrs..."

For the first time, Est showed panic on her ever-flat face.

"Big brother Ars, Est, don't put on a face like that."

Areishia's right hand moved to touch Ars' cheek and his left hand to touch Est's cheek, and he tried to speak.

“I know about this since the beginning.”

She had an adult expression despite being only 16 years old.

This curse was a combination of hatred from the Spirits who had been killed by the power of the Holy Sword so far.

It had accumulated to its limit and eroded Areishia's body.

The Devil Killer is a sword that breaks all curses.

But the curse is not lost from this world. The Sacred Sword that had absorbed the various curses would one day pass them on to its user.

Spirit Weapon, Terminus Est is not a Holy Sword.

Taking the user's life in exchange for granting such immense power was no longer wrongly a trait of the Demon Sword.

"Est, tell me, is there any way to lift this curse? Quickly tell me, before it's too late!"

Upon hearing Est's explanation, Ars held tightly onto the little girl's shoulder, the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan in his eyes automatically activated, signaling his unstable emotions.

"Ars, Mistress! I don't know! That I—"

"I know, Est."

Areishia smiled and looked at Est gently, then glanced at Ars with an apologetic smile.

"Sister Ars, don't blame Est. I knew this was gonna happen, that's why it's not Est's fault."

"You know it's gonna be like this, then why... Why do you keep fighting, Areishia..."

Holding Areishia's crystallized hand, tears involuntarily flowed down Ars' eyelids.

"As Ars' brother said is true. I'm not a brave warrior or the main character in the story. In the end, I'm just an ordinary girl."

When facing death, there was no way Areishia would not be afraid.

That's why she's not like the Holy Queen.

She was just a normal 16 year old girl.

"After I'm gone, Est has to make a contract with Ars' brother. This is my last request."

While patting Est's silvery-white hair, Areishia slowly nodded.

But his voice trembled and tears flowed in his eyes.

"Mrs..."

"Goodbye, Est. My only friend."

"Goodbye, brother Ars. The man I love."

"No, you can't... Madam!"

A small voice came out from Est's lips.

"No... Arei... Sia...!"

"That's the first time you've called my name. I'm thrilled... To be honest, I don't want to be the Holy Queen.”

With a clear voice, Areishia's neck crystallized. Then his entire crystallized body shattered and turned into powder flakes that flew in the wind.

Est could do nothing but watch.

"Areishia!"

Hot tears fell down Est's cheek. Wailing echoed throughout the Demon King's castle.

"Areishia, wait for me... I'll definitely raise you."

Seeing the girl he loved dead before his eyes, and he could do nothing, Ars gritted his teeth and clenched his hands tightly.

Even though his mood was in a mess, he still kept his composure.

Rinnegan Outer Road, [Gedo — Rinne Tensei no Jutsu (Saamysera of Heavenly Life Technique)]!

Ars plans to resurrect Areishia with the forbidden technique.

"The most important thing right now is to recover my strength as soon as possible." Ars wiped the tears on his face.

Suddenly the sad moment was marred by the Girl Princess who took advantage of Ars' unwary state.

Various attacks attacked Ars' back.

*BOOM BOOM*

The attack produced black smoke so they did not see the situation clearly.

"Have we succeeded?" Ask one of the girls.

As the smoke dissipated, Ars' figure protected a giant skeleton made of purple energy.

"Not good, everybody back off!"

Knowing their attack had failed, one of the Princess Girls ordered a retreat. They know it's no match for Ars.

"God!"

Ars is really angry at the moment. It was fine if they did not help against Solomon, not only did they not help, but they instead attacked him who was on their side.

He's running out of patience. Without Areishia holding him back, Ars could no longer tolerate their behaviour.

"[Hinokagutsuchi]!"

Amaterasu appeared on the bodies of the Ten Daughters of the Girl and burned them alive.

"Arggghhhh!"

"Congratulations!"

"Hot!"

"What kind of weird fire is this?"

"It can't be extinguished?!"

"Please forgive me!"

"You fucking guy! You're gonna die a miserable death."

They show a different reaction. Some were crying in pain, begging, fear, and some were condemning Ars.

However, no matter what, they turned into ashes in a split second.

They died without leaving a body.
