A spur of the moment reunion.

The girl in front of me looked more and more mature compared to when I met her.

I can't say that we were on the same side then, but we still saw each other and traveled together, even if it was only for a while.

We were no strangers.

We were more than acquaintances, less than friends.

We ate together along the way.

We chatted casually.

And, oddly enough, we talked business.

It was a common affair that only once crossed paths.

just an acquaintance.

Who would have thought we'd never meet again, but who would have thought we'd reunite in the worst possible way?

My son-in-law!

"Eshley!

Muille's scream collides with the scream of a man dressed as a wizard, and she and I huff and puff.

That's right.

The fact that she was working with that armed group reminds me that she is the enemy.

Even if I had been with her for a while and knew for a fact that she was a hard woman to deal with.

Even if you were intimately familiar with that fact.

I will break through! Mr. Muille, guard! HIMIK!

That's it.

That's no reason to get lost here.

No, you can't get lost.

I know that such feelings are just a burden right now.

and without hesitation I will cut at the knightly man in front of me.

As long as I can keep the wizard's man at bay! Don't push it!

"Mm! Yes!

For a moment, my hesitation was a blessing in disguise, as I didn't have to beat him.

You use your right hand, which was injured in the earlier fight with Nissiya, but you are not strong enough to attack with it.

It's hard to break them down.

It's even harder to cut them off with technique.

You know you'll be forced to choose between strength or skill.

I'll push through!

"Mm!

There is no time to lose.

I'm being chased, and I don't have the strength to fight to watch my back.

Moreover, fighting with a baby in your arms is a situation that should be avoided.

But if you don't break through here, Nisia will catch up with you and as a result you will be wiped out.

Then there is no time to hesitate.

You'll run toward the knightly-dressed man standing in front of you.

At the same time, Himikku unleashes his magic at the wizard.

Hey! You never told me there was a fallen angel against you! In addition.

The wizard is receiving that magic at the barrier.

Even if it's not your thing, it's magic made from the magic of Himikku, the cutthroat angel.

There's no doubt he's above par.

You'll be able to see that he or she is capable of accepting it with ease.

It's not funny to joke about it. It's not funny if it's a joke.

But it's true, if you have time to talk nonsense, cover me now. It's a pretty good move.

"d*mn, I know.

It's the same with the knightly man I attacked.

The knightly man is in no hurry to answer the wizard's voice from behind.

At the very last moment, Oreki and the other side's sword are engaged in a battle of wits.

I'd like to say that our muscles are evenly matched, but I'm not prepared, and I know my opponent isn't serious.

Their skills are yet to be developed, but judging from the atmosphere, they're not someone you would definitely lose to.

Hmph!

"Ha!

He flicks his sword from the other side and keeps his distance.

I'm holding my distance from the distance, but my best distance is still inside the middle distance.

That gives you room to use your sword.

My opponent seems to be just as skilled with a sword as I am.

Naturally, the distance between us will be within range of that blade.

The timing is taken, and the first swing from the top step is a preemptive strike that I half-swing and duck at just the right distance.

The sword passes by my cheek, and I hear the wind chop in my ears as I watch the iron wall pass by at the edge of my vision.

The sword stops before it hits the floor.

Don't miss the moment.

Step as hard as you can on the sword as it stops just before it hits the floor and bite into the ground.

With that step, you'll grab the opponent's head with the tree.

What?

!

An offense and defense that can be called a momentary decision.

Despite the momentary intersection, I want to say it's good.

Although you are dressed like a knight, the actions that were just taken in front of you let me know that you understand the battlefield.

You have often heard that a knight's sword is his pride, but to die for it is the act of a fool, the man in front of you said with his actions.

If I'd stuck with my sword, I would've had its head.

Plus, he didn't just duck.

When you dodge, humans naturally assume an unsteady posture.

Nevertheless, one foot planted firmly on the ground as if rooted to the foot, while the other unleashed a kick.

It was not a desperate attack in the dark, but an attack with a clear purpose.

Quickly realizing what lies ahead, I pull my sword-stomping foot back and take refuge outside of the kicking interval.

".........

".........

It's amazing that they can move so lightly in armor, but this knight has stepped on a different field.

Normally, you want to do as much damage to your opponent as possible, and you're greedy in your attacks.

Strike with great force into the weakest and most lethal parts of your opponent.

It would be best if you could do so, but the enemy will not let you do so easily.

Desperately think about how to minimize and disorient the opponent's attack by desperately trying to defend or counterattack.

This is the basis of offense and defense.

When you must kill your opponent, it is important to control your greed and to kill with a few hands.

The man in front of you understands this.

Calm and collected.

He knows what to do or what he can do.

In fact, right now, the sword I had sealed up is being retrieved right in front of me with ease.

After the first exchange of glances, you probably figured out that I'm not fully prepared.

If that was the case, you could have come to break my left arm's elbow at this moment, which wouldn't be surprising if you had come on strong.

Perhaps if I had been kicked through with the iron shoe, the joint would have been shattered and my left arm would have been useless from the elbow up.

In other words, my opponent had come to kill me in that attack, but also to "weaken" me.

As an added bonus.

.........

".........

You understand that time is on your opponent's side for now.

You have the patience to take your time without letting your impatience cloud your judgment, and your movements, reminiscent of the immovable mountain, seem to be slowly draining your mental strength.

The knight-like man in front of you is the same, but so is the wizard man.

Seeing Himikku unarmed, he keeps a check on him while fortifying his defenses, and he also pays attention to Suela and the others behind him.

Both Himik and I are on the offensive because of the actions of these two people who say they are used to fighting.

The difference in mental superiority between us, who say we shouldn't take too long, and the opponent, who knows that time will bring reinforcements.

In addition.

Hmph.

"Shallow or

I've managed to get a scratch on it.

I'll fix it.

Please.

It's easy to be cured.

Jiro-san!

When you're in a bad situation, a bad situation is bound to happen.

At the same time as Suela's scream, the firewall behind her is breached, and a bundle of light comes through the wall to improve the ventilation of the entrance.

A dense presence is felt at the same time as Suela's voice.

"......... surrounded?

Slowly, our backs are against each other.

Himikku, landing close to the flap of his wings, doesn't pay attention to Nysia, but gazes toward the large hole in the wall.

"You really gave me a hard time, didn't you?

A being with the body of Ishan that emerges from it.

We have a rough idea of what it is, but it gives off a presence that makes it hesitant to call its name.

He'll be looking at the being blown away by the previous light.

"Does it still breathe, doll?

He had fought as hard as he could.

His wounds were wounds all over his body, his right arm was intact, and his right leg was bent in a way that it should not have been, his head was cut and bleeding, and his left eye was blocked.

Continue fighting.

The last remaining cord is tattered.

Despite the fact that she can no longer fight, Amiri does not give up.

You'll be able to control the armor-armored golem that's been summoned, and you'll have a go at it.

Joke.

In the blink of an eye, you are blown away and blown further away by the impact.

You hit the wall and fall, but immediately afterwards you try to get up again.

Huh.

I know that it's pointless to help out in this situation.

But I know it's best to avoid ending up doing nothing at all.

Every moment, the board is being controlled, blocking out time to think, limiting the actions I can take.

Trivial. I heard this is the headquarters of the current demon king, but it's surprisingly simple.

The only thing that's left is me, Himikku, Suera, and Muille, now that the Seventh General's Amiri has been neutralized.

But with all that power on hand, this isn't something that will go away.

This is the hero and this is the opponent we must prevent.

We're just confronted with the reality.

"What do we do with this one, my father?

Nitsia turns to Ishan to ask him a question in order to pass on the desperate situation.

The presence in Ishan's mind receives these words and turns his gaze from the disinterested Amiri to us, with Kawasaki at his back.

Huh.

A chill runs down my spine just by looking at me.

It's not just me, but everyone else is equally tense and stiff.

"Himik, what those foul wings, my father would never have given you those wings.

The first thing that caught my eye was Himik .

The color of his wings, unbecoming of the daughter he had created for himself.

He looked at it, not with anger or sorrow, but as if it were something to be despised, and said, "You should be gone.

"Go away. Go away and give that power back to me.

Then he quietly raises his right hand, which is not holding a sword, and makes a grasping gesture.

What?

"HIMIK!

As soon as you do, Himik will painfully hold his chest.

The way she suffered was extraordinary.

He collapses to his knees, mouth open as if he's hyperventilating, pupils unsteady, and the fat sweat won't stop.

It's clear that he's doing something.

Don't resist. Don't resist. The power is mine to begin with. Daughter, surrender honestly. It is the last service to your father that you can perform.

The action of Himikku, who was desperately trying to escape, intensified his grip with emotionless eyes.

I don't want to. There are still things that I want to do.

"You're unseemly, Himik, the fact that you have fallen proves that you have no complaint about being erased by your father. You must have been prepared for this to happen, right?

I'm not going to be able to get it right.

I'm surprised to hear her words.

It's because a part of me was thinking easily about Himik's actions that made the act of falling from heaven so easy.

"Himik, son.

Don't care. I was just there for you. It's not like you care. Great, yeah. . so.

You never said anything like this when you met her.

So why are you laughing?

You're out of breath and in pain...and you're trying to hold on for dear life...but you can't.

Why are you laughing at me?

Do you throw away your short life? Human

Something about that smile pushes me back, a switch.

I squeezed the hilt of the mineral tree.

Nysia, who knows from that gesture alone that I'm going to do something, asks me a question, the word foolish oozing from her lips.

I said yes in my mind to the question.

It's not that I'm desperate to die anyway.

"I'll take my chances, Mr. Muille. Take everyone as fast as you can.

You can only bet that there is any chance of .

Mouth spins another thing.

If you say you're going to take a chance, every human being will be alarmed.

Nisia and Ishan are not wary, but the knightly man standing before them is wary of what he is doing.

It doesn't matter.

And we don't have time to wait for an answer.

What's on your back?

Are you willing to lose that something?

Can you live with the loss of that something?

It's as if I'm a stranger to you, and just saying no with all my might will will blow you away.

Let's go to ........., buddy.

I just quieted my mind and let myself be carried along by the torrent that was to come.

Realizing with a thud what I wanted to do, Mineki quietly replied that he understood once.

Suela, the child, Memoria, Himiku, and Muille.

I've decided that I need to abandon myself if I'm going to protect the people I care about here.

Suela.

As the countdown begins, the fetters come off one by one in the ore tree.

And as the last fetters come loose.

"Take care of my children.

A rattle that must not be clearly dislodged will come off.

At that moment my consciousness is consumed by that torrent.

My heart begins to beat impossibly, and my muscles are remodeling.

I abandon my body, my heart, and my only wish.

I'll surrender my body to the last sensation of its raging nature.

Let's go!

Colosse, guard ritoose

In my darkened consciousness, I wished for its identity and left the consciousness.

Word of the Day

If you decide, stick to it.
