-Echo~✩ (Farah)

I use the "Echo" spell to replace eyes to detect the surrounding.

-I will kill you guys for real this time! (Man)

I can detect that Mashiro and Beleth are still fainting because of the illusion. And I also notice the man has turned into an enormous tree.

-The Last One! (Farah)

I active the title skill I can't use in his illusion. This time, a barrier forms right after I activated the skill.

-What's this golden ball surrounds your friend? (Man)

The ground starts shaking again.

-I will crush it! (Man)

The tree limbs reach out to Mashiro and Beleth.

-Why is it so hard? (Man)

When the man is trying to mess with the barrier, I seize this chance to transform.

-You can't harm my friend again! (Farah)

From the air, I pull out my lily sword. My clothes gradually change into knight's clothes.

-I already know about that skill. As long as I can crush you before you finish charging judgment, then you will lose! (Man)

More tree limbs grow out of his body and fly toward me.

-Moon Slash. (Farah)

I make a crescent slash with the sword, a crescent wind blade instantly comes out and cuts down all the limbs that try to reach me.

-Annoying! (Man)

I can feel a strong energy wave coming out from inside his body.

-I will become even stronger to defeat you! (Man)

This time, the tree limbs turn into many monsters.

-Tramble on her body! (Man)

Few monsters suddenly roar before they approaching me.

-Heavy! (Farah)

I can feel my body become heavier. The other monsters try attacking me while I'm being affected by the strange monster's roar.

-Hihihi! It's one monster I created with the tablet's power. Every time it roars, you will become weaker. (Man)

>You are fighting with multiple monsters that are stronger than you.

>For each monster stronger than you: You gain one brave pts/monster/min.

>You "Judgment" will be ready in 1 Min.

As I thought, the man's reading skill is not perfect. He can't fully comprehend my skill by reading through the memory. And thanks to him, I can charge the special move much faster.

-Why are you smiling for no reason? Die! (Man)

The monster created from his limbs assault me even more ferociously.

-Why are you still alive? (Man)

From the man's voice, I can notice he is run out of his patience.

-You guys are so useless! (Man)

From another tree limb, he creates a gigantic monster. The monster gradually takes the form of a wolf.

-More...More...More! (Man)

Not one, but many gigantic wolves are created from his body. They all possess an incredible speed that I can't catch up with within this magical girl's form.

-Ugh! (Farah)

I can barely parry the attack of those monsters.

>10 seconds until "Judgment" fully charged.

-Why! Why! (Man)

He can't use any powerful attack since he knows I possess a skill that can reflect his attack in this form.

> Special attack has fully charged. Please say the keyword to activate the special attack.

I aim at the man and say.

-Judgment! (Farah)

-What! How come! (Man)

With one swing, the man with the monsters in front of me have been obliterated.

After making sure I can no longer detect the man's energy, I open my eyes.

-Hah, I need to check up on Mashiro and Beleth. (Farah)

I look around and find they are inside a golden ball.

-Master! (Beleth)

-Human. (Mashiro)

They finally become awake, which means they have successfully escaped from the illusion. I cancel my skill that is protecting Beleth and Mashiro.

-Master! (Beleth)

Beleth runs to my side and hugs me.

-You are safe, master! (Beleth)

-Human...Alive. (Mashiro)

-I almost have a heartache when I saw you shoot your head, master. (Beleth)

-Ehehe, I'm sorry I can't explain at that time. (Farah)

-Moh, you must tell me ahead before you do something like that. (Beleth)

I nod and answer her.

-I will do it next time! (Farah)

Beleth looks around and notices the battle traces of battle by that man and me.

-You have already finished him off, master? (Beleth)

-Uhm. (Farah)

-That's too bad. I really want to beat that man by myself. I will never fall for his trick again. (Beleth)

-We are not finishied yet! (Man)

We turn our attention to the place the voice come from.

-He's not dead! (Farah)

-He is a severely wounded, master. You can notice he can barely keep his human figure. (Beleth)

-Shut up! (Man)

He tries reaching out to the tablet that floats in the sky.

-With this, I can become strong again. (Man)

But before the man can reach the tablet, a black tree appears and pierces through his hand.

-Argh! (Man)

-Your time is over, Father. (Fake)

Another black limb reaches toward the tablet and wraps around it.

-This ultimate power is finally mine! (Fake)

-You traitor! I will kill you. (Man)

-You can no longer kill me, father! (Fake)

The "Fake" uses his hand to pierce through the head of the man.

-You... (Man)

The man's body gradually turns into dust and disappears.

-Thanks to you guys, I finally can have this thing on my own. (Fake)

-Master! (Beleth)

Beleth and Mashiro change into their battle stance.

-You guys will witness the born of the new king. (Fake)

The "Fake" pushes the tablet inside his body and starts laughing.

-Ahahahaha! (Fake)

Many black trees start growing from his body.

-... (Farah)

My magical form is on cooldown; I don't think I can win against him in my current state.

-Huh! (Fake)

The black limbs that come out of his body gradually turn white.

-What! What is happening? (Fake)

The fake's head suddenly explodes while the tree comes from his body withers.

-What a bizarre scene! (Beleth)

The tablet flies out of the "Fake" body and arrives in front of me.

>You have completed the second trial.

>You have received a fragment of ???.

>You have received the seed of World Tree.
