Expand the water attribute magic of the Water Spirit, covering both hands with a membrane of water, while Eliza takes the reception.

Alicia, on the other hand, stretched the fox's tail from around her waist, which gave Eliza a non-gap attack.

"I see, that's why you flew us earlier, right?

But there is no response from Alicia.

Alicia didn't even care about Eliza's expression or anything, she was just devoting herself to blaming it. That is the presence of Amadeus great.

"Want to try?" And Alicia was desperate to meet Amadeus' expectations for recommending this battle.

"Damn, you're persistent."

Alicia's attack is terrific and Eliza can't help it.

Eliza, who continues to be pushed into protection. But the gap comes at that moment.

Is it due to lack of stamina? For a moment, Alicia stopped moving.

Eliza didn't miss that moment.

"[Rejected Undine of the Water Spirit]!

Eliza increases further water barriers by further activating the magic of the water that had already been deployed. The barrier depends on the situation and becomes both a sword and a spear.

From there Eliza's counterattack began.

Changing all the barriers, Eliza put up eight water spears.

The next moment, all of them, attacked Alicia.

"You seem powerful, but you're not used to fighting yet, are you?

Eliza who provokes and makes you look down. But I can't afford the expression.

And there was no response from Alicia to that.

All there is is is an unchanged and faceless Death Mask.

Left, right, and above. Water spears looming from all over.

Alicia instantly judges the situation, uses the fox's tail and magical arms, and plays those spears.

But it's a magic spear. Especially if it is also a spear with the magic of the Spirit, it is a little short of preventing it with one hand.

There was a part of it that could not be prevented by simple grant magic.

Alicia whose position is reversed and even passive. It was then.

Suddenly, when something like a black shadow appeared in front of Alicia, it flickered like a curtain, bouncing all of Eliza's magic at the same time.

The shock wipes out all the spiritual magic that Eliza had unfolded.

"Come on!"

Eliza immediately distanced herself from Alicia and watched what was going on.

But I knew immediately that the shadow appeared in the form of intervention from another place.

"Alicia!"

So loud was Amadeus, who is currently engaged with Alford. Apparently, the shadow earlier belonged to Amadeus.

"Expose yourself to who you are! No need to hesitate! Whatever the others say, you're beautiful! That's what I'm saying! So there shouldn't be any complaints?!

Suddenly, Amadeus asks aloud what doesn't make sense. But Alicia's heart sounded like she did.

"... Yes. Okay."

To that reply, Alicia puts her hands on the mask.

At the next moment, the face death mask is stripped off with the white robe, and there, Alicia's identity appears.

"That's good! Light all tails with magic and intercept them with all your might!

"Yes!"

White, clear, long straight hair reminiscent of a mysterious impression, and equally clear white skin. The head has pointy fox ears and the hair is as white as the hair.

And the most striking thing is this Nine Tails. 9 tails attached to white hair.

You're a mutant, aren't you?

Eliza asks.

"Fox tails are usually supposed to be one. I've never seen or heard of nine."

But as soon as I heard the words, the face changed, and Alicia pointed a sharp, intimidating gaze at the sharp fangs.

"By the minute of man!... look down on us!

An anger flies over Hirono.

Then he decides on the ground with water at his feet, and when the earth dances to the universe, Alicia's figure disappears for a moment.

And the next time Alicia shows up, it's Eliza's present.

"Gu!"

Eliza flashed her fangs for a moment, to that great momentum.

But the movement looked like it was visible.

Eliza manipulates eight water spears, reflectively preventing nine fox tails.

Alicia emits a temperamental anger. That's just the beast.

Alicia freely manipulates her tail in a variety of attack styles, beating and poking.

Magically hardened tails boasted steel-like strength.

"Aah!"

And during the encounter, to Eliza, who was momentarily delayed in guarding, the steel tail struck.

Eliza is flown backwards and slammed to the ground in muddy water in the wetlands, defiling her body.

"Eliza!"

Alford's sorrowful voice, which captured the figure sideways, was heard from behind Alicia.

Alford cuts into Amadeus with the sword of the brave - Excalibur - in his right hand, with that forged sword technique. Over and over again.

But from somewhere appeared something like an unidentified black shadow, and they turned Alford's sword into a cliché.

"Come on!"

"The sword of the brave... it's fantastic indeed. I've never seen anything else, like a golden sword. As much as I envy you, be a brave man."

Alford hasn't heard Amadeus say anything.

All I have on my mind is killing the white madman in front of me and, above all, somehow saving Eliza and delivering Zeke's ex.

At that time, however, when the sword began to grow in the shadows, Alford took a short distance.

"Are you worried? Eliza Crawford?

"Ha... ha... ha..."

Alford listens to the question while disturbing his breathing.

But my heart was right for Eliza.

"Ha... not at all, I'm not in. This is a farce."

Then Alford grins at the look he can't afford.

"It's been a farce since the beginning, isn't it? You can kill us whenever you want. Didn't I?"

"Oh, you're right. But before I kill you, I want to see something called the power of the brave. Knowledge matters, this battle itself is farce, but I always absorb the benefits. Brave men are a rare profession. There's something I can learn from you weak."

"Well, that's a tough one, isn't it? For what?

"What do you think it's for? Right...... if you say so, just curious. I hear that you brave men, when you open up all that power, will be more than just demons and dragons. That said, it doesn't deserve vigilance, does it?

"You even want to know you don't need to be vigilant?

When Alford asks, he grins like he made a fool of Amadeus and makes him play it.

But Amadeus knows his soul and his guts.

Alford's heart is always right for Eliza. It is no longer an exaggeration to say that I have given up my life.

I mean, this is a buy of time. Alford also asks what he doesn't need to hear.

- Insurance.

Alford doesn't know what the word means.

Regardless, Amadeus is not willing to answer in detail.

But at that time, Amadeus' mask - just two black holes visible in the eye position. Behind it, two red lights appeared.

- Revenge.

Alford kills his weakness with his strength and restarts his sword, even if he feels cold for a moment in his red gaze.

But in the meantime, the red light had also disappeared with a slight shake.

Alford sweats cold from the moment he sees the red eye.

But I don't know what Amadeus means by revenge.

"For me to be timid, knowledge is a medicine that makes me forget my fears"

"What? Cowardice? Are you kidding me?"

"What do you think?

For a moment, Alford turns his gaze sideways at Eliza, even though he is distracted by Amadeus' strange answer.

When I saw it, I saw the Fox clan standing in front of Eliza.

Alford thinks, and only now, he begins to move, with Laughter, as he becomes more alert to Amadeus in front of him.

That's a "laugh" of readiness.

"Now of your words, I'm sorry, but I don't get it. I don't even want to know. But you want to see it, don't you?

"Oh, sure!

"Then I'll show you, okay? I'll give it to you as a souvenir of the underworld."

"You think it's the middle of nowhere? Isn't that a joke? The result is obvious."

And when Amadeus said so, along with the words "I know," Alford began chanting.

"[Sealed Light Sword (Ketom de Light)]!"

Following his voice to Alford, a white magic formation appears at the feet of Amadeus.

"Hmm? Is this what you call heavenly attribute magic?

"Huh, you know me well, don't you? But no. This is light attribute magic. I can't use heavenly attributes."

"I see."

At that time seven glowing swords appear over Amadeus.

They made circles, and when they stabbed into the abyss of the magic formations that unfolded to surround Amadeus, they sealed Amadeus' movements.

"[Flash Guardian (Solution Light)]!"

At the foot of Alford, who chanted even more, a magic formation appears.

Then the white light covered Alford's entire body.

"I see."

Amadeus didn't move one finger about the condition, he was just observing.

- You stay here.

The moment I said so, Alford disappeared.

Fast enough to draw a line of light into the universe. Alford left before Amadeus.

And where he next showed up. That was right in front of Alicia.

"Become!"

All of a sudden, Alicia is amazed at Alford for showing up in front of her.

"[Lightning]!"

Then Alford makes an instant chant, trying to keep Alicia away from Eliza, releasing an electric shock.

A yellow magic formation appeared at Alicia's feet and a glimmer of lightning appeared from above with the thunder.

Alicia masterfully manipulates her tail and immediately covers herself, building a protective wall.

But it didn't have to be.

The moment Alford's lightning struck Alicia, a black shadow appeared there.

The shadow instantly swallows Alicia and protects her from lightning. That's like a black sphere.

The lightning, then bounced on the film of shadows, was lightly scattered around the perimeter and completely deactivated.

"Eliza, can you stand?

Alford is blind to such a look and speaks to Eliza behind him.

"Yeah, I'm fine"

Then you get up slowly, Eliza.

Apparently, Alford knew from the beginning that his magic would be prevented.

"Damn, he's rude. Weren't you going to show me?

Then there, when he heard the question that made the air nervous, Amadeus appeared next to Alicia.

"Dear Amadeus"

"Good, have you got a sense of struggle? Laying down is a good thing. Always be on guard around you and throw away your arrogance. How much advantage?

"Okay. I remember the liver. Thank you."

Amadeus then waves a glimpse of his hand to Alicia.

When she realized that Alicia was wearing the same white robe and death mask she had worn until earlier.

"Enough of the farce. I'll do it from here. Alicia, tell Romero we can get ready for King Nuts' execution and make it easy this time."

"Yes, sir."

Then Alicia received her life and left Amadeus first.

"Mandate, creed, existential value… you line up the great names that never come down and justify what you do. But that's none of my business. That said, that's how you've been getting your hands dirty. Halfway there, huh? So this is all the beast man! The dwarf! The elf! I'm going to be tormented!

Then Alford mocked the words.

"I haven't seen the trees and I haven't seen the woods - so to speak, that's what you're talking about. Everything can't be saved. But our actions have saved a lot of lives."

"It's just an excuse. You guys are just spoiled. We choose what we can do within our power, and we are spoiling it there. It makes no sense if you don't save everything. That's why I'm halfway there. We're gathered here. That's the proof, isn't it? Your existential significance has been doomed for a long time. If you can't save me, don't do anything from the beginning!

Then Alford remembers his anger at the word and releases an electric shock from his palm.

But when it hit Amadeus directly, it vanished naturally.

"This world needs fantasy."

Amadeus didn't make it slight.

"Fan...? What?"

"Don't you know? Huh, isn't it? You guys don't even realize what magic means, you can't possibly understand. This world has already been saved. But what's missing is fantasy. So what do you think we should do?

"What are we going to do?

"It's fantasy! To make this happen, one! What you don't need is mixed up in the world. eliminating it would complete the fantasy"

"You... say what..."

Amadeus then saw Alford and Eliza behind him with that red gaze that seemed slight earlier.

- A human being.

……

……

Alford and Eliza lost their words to the answer.

Because the two of them could have predicted the sincerity of Amadeus that word showed.

"No way... you"

"I take the humans of this world..."

But then, unnaturally, the words of Amadeus suddenly stop.

And for a while, Amadeus doesn't move with his eyes on the sky.

When the two felt uncomfortable there, from the untouched, such Amadeus' behavior, they found it difficult to express in words and disgusting.

"Crazy..."

Alford had zero nature and its words.

Then he reacted to the word, and Amadeus returned his gaze to Alford.

"You think it's crazy? Me?

……

But there's no response from Alford except for the alert eye.

"That's not true."

The mask gets in the way and I don't see Amadeus' expression.

What face is this guy looking at us right now? - Alford thinks about that for a moment.

"- It's not me who's crazy, it's this world."

That voice of Amadeus felt somewhere, lonely.

But of course, the two of us don't understand.
