Not long before Cece and the others were surrounded by flaming walls.

Behind it, as Grimm watched himself summon [Flaming Ancient Iron Soldier (Fram Eisen)] to the Ceces.

"Grim - come (...) ru (...)"

While Garde said so, he waved the Great Sword behind his back unwrought.

"Shit!"

With tongue pounding from behind Garde, metal noise. Its orbit is altered by the song sword with which Garde's great sword has a red blade.

"Um? Are you one of them? I had no idea."

"Grimm, don't be alarmed, hands (...) practiced (...)"

Garde looked back as he laid the great sword. At the end of that gaze stood one man whose assimilation with the surrounding background was unraveling.

Grimm speculates that is the magic of [transparency (Invisibility)]. That must be a tricky sorcery for humans. I see, he's certainly quite a strong man at a time when we got so close without ourselves noticing.

The man is middle meat and tall, bright brown hair with gray eyes, and an insensitive beard. The red song sword that prevented Garde from striking in his right hand and the blue dagger in his left hand were held.

"Are you alone?"

"Somehow my people dumped me."

A man mocks himself, but he doesn't see a gap in his setup.

"Then I'll leave that to Garde. I want to hang out with those cute kids over there."

The moment Grimm tried to chase after the [ancient iron soldier of fire] he sent earlier, a man kicked the ground. Even as Garde waves down the great sword, the man scratches it as he sticks the blue dagger out to Garde.

"" White pillar, reverse your fangs. "[Frostbite]"

Frost runs straight down the ground in three directions as it looks at the dagger's sword tip.

"Aha! Awesome! [Magic (Xtin) Fire Relief (Gyish)]"

The frost disappeared as if it melted as Grimm paid his hand toward the looming frost. Garde stabbed his sword to the ground and forced him to stop frosting.

In the meantime, a man approaches the grim in a low position, as if it were a beast. The tip of the song sword shook off to Grimm's chest as he drew an arc.

"Aim for that (...) ko (...)! Bye! [Flaming Rust (Last Nail)]"

But the man's song sword was prevented in its orbit by a burning sword that suddenly appeared in the universe just before Grimm's chest gem.

"Hmm!"

The man cleverly flushes the horizontal giraffe by Garde from behind with a blue dagger, diverting that thick blade.

"Like, like! You're amazing! Come on, show me the limits of the human race!!

When Grimm waves as if he were a conductor, he approaches the man as if a burning sword were willing in conjunction with it.

Avoid a single blow by Garde while striking that streak with a two-handed sword.

"Shit! Too much trouble"

While the man says so, he doesn't retreat, he moves forward.

"You're so important to those kids!... Garde, you can be serious."

"Grimm, Ko (...) 's (...) body (...) and (...) is (...) holding (...)

"Fine, we're playing anyway."

"Huh!!

Listen to that word, a man backsteps.

"Are you guys... [Smoked (dull) Spirits]"

Hearing the words, Grimm opened her eyes. Garde's movements also stop.

"That. I wonder why the human spirit knows that word?

Grimm with a luscious grin, but those eyes aren't laughing.

"I know. You're the demons, and among them, the hardliners who don't want a dialogue with mankind, the ones commonly called [Sparks (Kindles)], right? The faction's executive force against humanity is called the [Smoky Spirit]."

"Grimm, this guy knows too much"

That's what Garde said and pointed the cutting edge of the Great Sword at the man.

"Drawing stars. Well, it's about those people who come to such a peripheral land. It also matches the sightings. You're the ones who made the fake request."

"Hmm, uncle, who are you? Maybe a brave man or something? I can't believe I can use witchcraft and swordsmanship... like a demon clan"

"Demons to the brave? No way. I'm just an educator."

Grimm found that there was no lie in the voice of a man who was so groaning. But I'm not necessarily telling the truth. There was a slight reaction to the word brave, so either that acquaintance or fellow.

"I wonder what the [Scarlet Spider (Arakunay)] people are doing, I haven't heard of him like this."

"[Scarlet Spider]... is that the intelligence department we're talking about here? I see. I'll learn, it's been a long time since I've been relative to the Demons. Would it help if you finally told me what it was all about?

"Purpose? Well, what is it?"

The man spat his words at the grime.

"Kill the adventurer among the newcomers. Skilled adventurers are susceptible to damage on the devil's side because individuals are a threat in the first place and partying for the most part. But if you crush it among the newcomers, you're less hurt - right?

That's what the man said. Grimm hears it and slaps his hand with a pussy.

"Correct! Cospa's good, isn't it? Threat buds can only be picked early! Oh, you know the word" cospa "? In the words of the Demons, it's about cost-effectiveness!

"Well, I won't let you."

"Maybe you think you can win in two?

"Hey, why do you think I'm talking like this for so long? - Oh (...) ago (...) et al. (...) went to (...) support (...) protection (...) to (...) thorough (...) Ro (...)!!"

Grimm and Garde unwittingly looked back behind the man's scream.

But there's - no one (...) (...) (...) or (...) (...) (...). There's a wall of flames standing in the back, and no one can get out of it.

"" White columns, run the blade and arc. "" Frost bite moon. ""

A man walks with a chant. The red song sword is covered in frost and raises white smoke.

"Bluff! Garde!"

"I know!!

Garde sticks out his great sword as he growls at the man heading to Grimm. Flames overflow from the jewels of the chest and the body and the great sword are covered in fire.

"[Drawing Power (Attract)]"

As the man protruded the blue dagger with no chant, the cutting edge of Garde's great sword was pulled to the ground by an invisible force.

The man kicks the ground, lands on a great sword sewn on the ground as it is obliquely, and walks on it to the Garde.

"Brilliant."

Along with Garde's words, a man's song sword amputates the chest gem. At the same time frost spreads from the cutting surface. As it was, when Garde fell to the ground, it became ash and disappeared.

The man lands as-is, while now approaching the grim.

"I knew you knew [Flame Nucleus (Core)] was a weakness! haha! Wonderful! That's why humans are wonderful!

That burning sword prevents the man's song sword from protecting the grim, but every time he takes a blow, the fire weakens.

When the fire finally goes out, the sword lightly disappears. A man comes at me all the time here.

"Then why don't you give me four next! [Flaming Rust (Last Nail)]"

Grimm now summons four burning swords.

"Chi, how much magic can you use without chanting! You guys! Stab the todome while I'm distracting you!

"You won't get caught in that hand again, will you? -!!

As Grimm glanced back and gave his hand away, the impending red arrow disappeared to melt.

"Liar! My arrow!

"Master!"

It was those four people who were supposed to have sent [the ancient iron soldier of fire] running towards Grimm.

Running the lead is a tall man with a handax with a neutral face, and Grimm waves a single sword towards you.

"I'll prevent it!

A man running next door prevents it with a burnt shield.

"Then one more!

"I won't let you!

Grimm tried to wave a second sword, but it was stopped by a sickle held by a nun.

"How dare you defeat [Fire Ancient Iron Soldier]!

Grimm waved the third one to the sideburn,

"Thanks to you, you're full of burns!

A song sword of a girl with mild burns all over her body played it too.

"That's it, that's it. Si (...) - (...) S (...), aim for chest gems!!

The fourth one - stopped by a man.

"I wanted to play some more, but too bad. That's all for this one."

"Ahhhh!!

An axe sword waved down with the temper struck Grimm's chest jewel - straight into the flaming nucleus.

"Again - meeting (...) i (...) and (...) hey (...)

So murmured Grimm's smile collapsed, his whole body ashed and scattered with the wind.

Dark indoors. Only two flame nuclei glow.

"Have you lost?"

"It was a great harvest, Ga (...) l (...) de (...)"

"Though [Astral], I didn't know we could break into humans. I want to be straight."

"That's why I'm telling you... that humans are great. Exercise of witchcraft with effective cold air for the Demon Clan, swordsmanship to attack Garde and myself, knowing and without hesitation that the Flame Nucleus is a weakness. And the rush to decide the battle without chanting when you're here, with a scattered chant. That human being is... strong."

The girl's words echo inside her private room.

There are bookshelves and various objects in the room, but Garde knows that they are all books and materials about human society, culture and history.

Especially lately, they've been researching [adventurers].

"If [Spark] finds out... what will they say"

"You just have to keep Garde quiet. Even to your father."

"If the Demon King asks me, I won't lie."

"Then let's not be questioned. Now, I don't know what to do with two excuses for using [ash body] on my own."

Garde sighed at the girl's easy-going voice.

"Keep playing as much as you want...... g (...) li (...) m (...) princess (...)"

I had to say that, thinking that Garde, the knight of Grimm, the daughter of the demon king, would not listen anyway.
