In front of the leisurely Reuters, Thoria finds herself at a disadvantage and speaks out against Zed.

"Ji, if you can't beat Reuters, you can fight with us...!"

"It's okay. You need to get out of here."

Zide raises her mouth and says:

It was a clumsy smile, but Thoria's face was a familiar one. It's a smile I forced to make to reassure someone.

Soria-sama... unfortunately, we're all in this together.

Phil calls out from next door.

Neither are they amateurs. No matter how unforgiving your mood, the timing of your retreat is right.

Whether you can take it ruthlessly, or whether you can decide to support Zed's battle, it will be a matter for the parties alone.

"--Good luck!"

Yeah.

All of them take the wounded and ride on horses and carriages.

Among them was the figure of Sfi.

Zide looks at Reuters as she loses sight of everyone.

Is it okay if I let you go?

Zeid casually asks.

Reuters smiled.

"I don't care. If I kill you, I'll be right behind you."

There's plenty of room.

"You know my power, don't you?"

Zide's eyes could see the magical power that was unleashed all the time to cut through the atmosphere.

It is transmitted to the skin as a pressure.

“I want to ask you something. What do you mean, my parents? It doesn't look like you're that old.

"Are you curious?"

"Oh, very good.

Zide nodded honestly.

Even if they are enemies, they respond with purity.

But Reuters is different.

"Then I'll torture you."

This interaction didn't make sense because the conversation didn't go well.

But I'm sure Reuters has been able to harass Zed.

It's a tricky trick.

But Zide is not aware of it.

Torture me......

A bitterness comes to Zide's face.

The Reuters who saw it laughed happily.

"Hahaha, I know. You won't be able to catch me."

"That's right. You can't catch him alive." That's why you have to tell me normally. "

"I don't know. Let me ask you something." Why did you give it to the Waila Empire? "

"Because you guys are doing terrible things, right?"

"It's necessary."

"Killing people?"

"The sacrifice is born whatever it takes."

Reuters responds quickly.

I do not doubt that my deeds are good.

All they say is that other ideas are evil.

"... that's how I hate trying to kill people." I don't want to kill you, even if it's not light. "

"Then you don't have to ask questions." You were a failure. "

Failure?

"You don't have to ask--"

The Great Sword of Reuters was pulled out.

When I recognized it, it was right in front of me.

Slashed diagonally.

Slightly flirting with Zid's clothes, he stepped backwards to avoid them.

Zeid makes a suggestion by taking the distance again.

"Wait, we're close to the city."

Zide refers to the Divine City.

Reuters turn around and smile.

So?

“We're going to get hurt, why don't we go somewhere else?”

"Kuku. You are a brave man, after all." I can think of people, but I can't. "

……

He seemed to be praised, scolded, but in essence, he didn't even seem to talk about Zed.

“But we don't need to change. You're going to die here anyway. There's no damage to it."

Reuters stood up.

Zid scratches the back of his head as if he wanted to do it.

"Reuters is the one who dies."

Without a choice, Zid tells the results.

It is not arrogant.

It was just a word of consideration to avoid harm to the people in the god capital.

"Huh? You admitted it, too." I'm stronger. "

Yeah. [Now] I am.

"... you told me you couldn't get me."

'Alive.'

Reuters put a wrinkle between his eyebrows.

I am frustrated with what Zied is playing with words.

Are you kidding me?

“I'm serious. Your chance was when the Tholians were there. Then so am I. No, I'm not good at it either. Let's not. Yeah. - Last thing I want, I don't want to involve the others. Why don't you go somewhere where no one is?"

Kudoku.

Reuters throws up Zed's suggestion.

"I see. I'm sorry." Picking up type -- shadow (no, no) "

A shadow appears behind Zide.

It was big enough to swallow a whole person in the form of an egg.

Reuters twisted his face to make fun of him.

"What kind of magic is that?" I don't feel any harm at all. There's no sign of vigilance. "

This is sealing magic.

Seal?

"Yes, if I can remember up to ten magic words, I won't have to use them... so I thought I'd shake the number."

Now it was Zed's turn to give a meaningful answer.

It seemed as if I was repeating my question to Reuters earlier. In fact, Reuters thinks so.

But Zido is different.

I don't bother to do that.

However, instinct avoided it.

"Are you going to seal me up?"

"Oh, no, this is going to seal me up."

Zeed scratches his cheek and laughs mercilessly.

“How's it going?

Reuters' eyes became a dot.

I can't hide my bewilderment at the unintelligible.

"I want to eliminate the need to use magic. I'm going to do it now."

Zide reaches out.

It seems to be directed directly at Reuters...

Reuters' spine trembled.

"Here we go. Type Zero- [Impure God/Possessed Ease]

In an instant, the magic power in the area turned black.

It looks like it's erupting from Zido, but in reality, the magic of nature is stained on its own.

There was overwhelming domination and despair.

Even the plants and trees wither away as if they were giving up living.

─ ─ Blinking must be done in preparation for decisive death in the taking of life.

Reuters was not alarmed.

There was a lot of distance in the first place.

Even if it was packed, we could have dealt with it.

But it was cautious.

By the time I noticed it, Zeid was gone right before Reuters.

It was supposed to be a blink of an eye when the droplets had no time to dissolve into the lake, but they were gone.

"Hey, oniichan." It feels naive. Do you? "

I heard a voice behind Reuters.

It was slightly louder than usual for Zed. It was a childish voice.

Reuters looks back as he snaps his throat.

--All the strongest troops were dying miserably.

There was pride in being able to destroy even the demons.

It was actually that much of a force.

It was annihilated.

While blinking.

More than anything, Zeed is eating something.

(Is that... a hand?)

The iron fell next to Reuters and Rattlesnake.

When I saw it, the great sword fell.

When I looked further, I didn't have any arms.

"What... what... is this?"

We've been attacked.

Moreover, he was unable to recognize it.

Even the power received from Astaire does not even know the "difference".

Impossible.

No, it can't be.

That thought stalled Reuters' mind.

But time goes on even when I don't like it.

"Aji? No. Hmm. Ah, it smells. It smells irresistible."

Zido innocently smashes his mouth.

He is speaking in a puzzling manner.

But there's a lot of fresh blood on my face that doesn't look good.

I'm eating, Reuters' arm.

It was clearly a different transformation from the one I found out about, Zeid.

"What is this..."

Reuters opened his eyes and backed away.
