What used to be a mansion turned into a hideous, writhing monster that was 100 meters tall, had Servi's face, and had spider legs and a head growing all over its body.
"Ohhohoho! They all look like bugs! My dear son, please show your true colors!"
"Yes mom!"
With Durin's answer, eight spider legs grew from the backs of the people in the yard, and their bodies split open, causing huge spiders to pop out.
"Aris! I'll feed all your friends as food to spiders and lock you in a dungeon full of spiders! Ohhohohoho!!!"
Servi grins evilly and moves her huge legs to come forward.
Giant spiders also scream and rush at us.
I realized that Servi and her mansion were the source of Aris' arachnophobia.
'Aris' arachnophobia was not simply caused by memories of the village being attacked by spiders. The inhumane treatment by Servi and the people of her mansion made her phobia even worse. So, to Aris, the Countess Servi's Mansion itself was a very evil and scary spider den. Only if we win here can we completely cure Aris' phobia.'
This battle is the final battle that will decide the fate of Aris and me in this world of images.
"The horned rabbits, CHARGE!!"
"Kyuuuuu!!!"
The horned rabbits I had collected while purifying the land so far cried out powerfully and ran forward.
The horned rabbits cling to the legs of the giant spider, bite it, jump on it, and sink their horns into its stomach, but struggled because the shell is harder than expected.
"Ohhohoho! The little bugs are struggling!"
When Servi steps on the area where the horned rabbits are gathered, the horned rabbits scream in pain and are crushed.
"Aris! We must attack too!"
"Please save me… Please help me…"
When Aris saw the terrible mansion giant, she was terrified and went back into the shell of her mind.
"I have to fight here on my own. Summon a giant vine!"
I held my staff forward and cast a spell that would cover the entire area with vines.
However, with the sound of air being released from the wand, a blue light as big as a fingernail appears and then disappears.
"What's this! Why can't I attack?!"
"Ho ho ho! What is that rotten branch you are holding?"
"Don't laugh at it! This is Asgralde, the cornerstone of a new era!"
"Puhahahaha! So what's wrong with your eyes?! Look again! Bug!"
I tried to ignore Servi's ridicule and looked at Asgrade.
"Huh?"
But before I knew it, I was holding not the luxurious Asgralde in my hands, but a rotten tree branch that looked like I had picked it up while hiking.
I was so embarrassed that I let go of the tree branch.
"How did this happen!"
"I can't beat that… I can't beat that… Please help me…"
I realized the situation when I heard Aris trembling in front of me muttering. Since Aris is the owner of this world of images, what Aris believes becomes the greatest truth. Therefore, the thought that Aris cannot beat Servi has become the truth and is even affecting me. No matter how much I fly or crawl, I cannot defeat Servi unless the mental state of Aris, the master of the image world, changes. The only way to defeat Servi is for Aris to overcome her phobia and attack.
"Shit! We must run until Aris come to your senses! Lia!!"
"Kyuu!"
As soon as I called Lia, she picked us up and ran away behind us.
"Ohhohoho! Are you running away because you're scared? You can't escape from here anyway!!! Ahahahaha!"
The servi moves its huge legs and follows us leisurely.
Behind us, we can hear the howling of the remaining horned rabbits, rushing at Servi and her giant spiders without hesitation.
Still, thanks to the brave sacrifices of the horned rabbits, I, Aris, and Lia were able to get away from Servi.
"Please help me… Ugh… I'm scared…"
Now we have to change Aris' mental state by any means necessary.
"Aris. Come to your senses!"
I grabbed Aris' head and made her look at me.
"Ugh… Zeon… We have to run… We can't win…"
"No! You can do it!"
"But we have no power…"
"If you and I combine, we can win! I am your courage! You are an excellent swordsman but lack courage, and I have courage but lack force. If we combine, monsters like that will be nothing!"
"Well, how does it come together…"
"Trust me. You and me. Let's become one. Accept me."
I hugged Aris tightly from behind.
"Zeon…"
"From now on, I will enter your body. We become one body and share one consciousness."
"I understand."
"We become one and become whole. I will strongly image what goes into you, so you strongly image what takes me. Have faith in me."
I had a strong image of being sucked into Aris while embracing her.
Before I knew it, I was absorbed into Aris' body and was looking at the surroundings through her Aris eyes.
"Zeon?"
[Huh. I am inside you.]
"We really have become one. It's an amazing feeling."
[I think I know how you feel. Somehow, courage rises, and you feel like you can do anything, right?]
"Yes!"
Aris and I moved together, got off Lia, and picked up our long swords. Because we are connected by a strong bond and love, there is no disharmony in moving our bodies as one.
"Ahahahaha! Aris! I'll put you in spider hell!"
Servi runs, shaking the ground, and giant spiders follow behind him.
Lia stands in front of us, her fur stands up and she growls. I borrowed Aris' body and spoke to Lia.
"Lia. You run away."
"Kyuu?"
"You are the affection of me and Aris. You can't die."
"Kyuuuuu…"
"Aris and I can resolve this. Trust us."
"Kyuu."
"Please. After we deal with that monster, take care of Aris in this wide field."
"Kyuuu!!!"
Lia shouted loudly and ran away and soon disappeared from sight.
Aris raises her longsword at her side and draws out her blue auror.
"Zeon. Let's go now."
[Yes!]
As Aris shot forward like a arrow, Servi lifted one of her feet and tried to step on her.
"What a meaningless struggle!"
Servi stomped on the ground until it trembled, but Aris had already passed by her other foot and cut it with her long sword.
"Kyaaah! It hurts! It hurts! Aris, you bitch"
Servi screams and thrusts her fist at Aris.
However, Servi's huge body cannot catch Aris, who is quickly running all over the place.
Using her blue aura Aris shot at Servi again, cutting the ankle of another leg.
"Aaaaah!"
Servi falls backwards, screaming in pain as her ankles are cut, and she wails.
At that time, the giant spiders that transformed from humans in the mansion attacked Aris.
[Aris! You knocked down Servi earlier! These are just toys!]
"That's right!"
As the giant spider jumps, Aris slides to the floor with her sword raised. The spider's abdomen splits open, and the intestines spill out.
Aris jumps, and dodges the rain of guts and swings her long sword at another spider, blowing its head off.
Spiders attack from all directions, but Aris' long aura sword cuts them apart like splitting tofu.
Before we knew it, this place had become a field filled with only the fragments and internal organs of what used to be spiders.
"Kaaaaa! This bitch killed my son?! I'll kill you!"
Servi raised her heavy body and screamed with anger on her face when she saw that all the giant spiders had been annihilated. Servi's ankle appears to have already recovered.
As Servi slams her fist, Aris dodges it and asks me for her opinion.
"Zeon. Even if I cut it, it will recover. What should I do?"
[It must be cut to the point where it cannot be recovered. Split the space.]
I know the crazy swordsman Aris in the novel. Aris in the novel split the strong castle of the Adrian Empire in half with a technique called Space Cleave, which divides space.
"How to divide space!"
[I will give you the image. Watch carefully and follow along. You can do it too.]
'Because this is your story.'
I thought of the image that came to mind while reading the part where Aris uses Space Cleave in the novel and gave it to Aris.
"Ugh… can I do this?"
[Let's do it together. If we're together, we can do it.]
"I'll give it a try!"
[Let's climb Servi's body!]
"Yes!"
"Ahahaha! You beggar! Why are you talking to yourself?"
Servi stomps on the ground laughing like a crazy bitch.
Just in time for one of Servi's feet to land, Aris got on the foot and climbed up the leg. Even though she is facing the wall at a 90-degree angle, Aris runs upward as if she were running on flat ground.
"This! This! This! You bug-like bitch! Get away from my body!"
As Servi yelps and shakes her leg, Aris jumps and lands on her other leg.
As Aris climbs up to her stomach, the spider legs and heads around her begin to attack Aris. Aris swings her sword in a trance, cutting her legs and her head into pieces.
"You bitch!!"
Servi hits her own stomach with her huge palm to catch aris.
In the nick of time, Aris grabs servi's arm with one hand and lifts her body up to Servi's chest.
Before we knew it, Aris was floating in the sky a little higher than Servi's head.
Servi lifts her head and looks at her Aris and sneers.
"Ahahaha! How are you going to escape from that sky! You're done now!"
Servi opens both palms and tries to catch Aris as if catching a mosquito. Just before Servi's huge palms arrive.
"Space Cleave."
Aris spat out her words indifferently and struck her sword from the top to the bottom.
A translucent blue energy came out of her sword in the shape of a fan, then grew in length and passed right through Servi.
Servi's eyes widened in astonishment.
"Uh? What is this…"
A second later, Servi's huge body split apart from head to crotch, and each half fell down on either side.
Aris fell to the ground and landed naturally with her aura surrounding her body.
