Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

It was on the 24th of March, after noon, the day after the departure of Recondor, that a separate unit, commanding General Astal-Lanadies of the Right Eye, made its rendezvous with the main unit.

The two separate teams, which were divided, joined at Recondor, regrouped as one unit and resumed marching towards Santorea, which would be the land of the showdown, on the 23rd. Sometimes a winning streak meant that the morale of the Rescue Army Separate Squad was even high, and there was even an atmosphere that Santrea could be dropped only by the Separate Squad, but regardless, with no intention of going to Santrea by the Separate Squad alone, the Astal-Lanadies gave priority to rendezvous with the main Squad, marching the Separate Squad in a northeastern direction rather than northward.

Fort Hale is located northeast of Recondor.

If we head northeast, we'll be able to rendezvous as soon as possible with the main unit, which will be southbound from Fort Hale. As a main unit, he also said that he wanted to meet with a separate unit first, and that the report on the recapture of Fort Hale was accompanied by a separate order. General Astar followed that order.

On the road, we encountered the Imperial Devil, but Setuna and the others kicked over, not even the wounded. He then continues in the northeastern direction without rest, just around the center of Recondor and Fort Hale, joining the main unit.

There are many mountains in northern Maldia and around Santorea. It was those mountains that separated the territory of Maldia from the territory of Benoagard, and those mountains had begun to be visible around the area that proceeded north on Recondor. The rendezvous point between the separate task force and the main unit was just at the foot of the mountain and it was necessary to make a major detour through this mountain and continue in a northwesterly direction to reach Santorea.

It is, then, a rendezvous.

The First Separate Task Force and the main unit had been rendezvous for the first time in more than a dozen days since Masak, and the Second Separate Task Force and the main unit had also rendezvous since Mardion.

They all praised each other for their good struggles, reported victories to each, rejoiced in their survival, and spared their deaths. There are casualties of war out of every unit. Naturally. It's not what it is, like an unharmed victory. We need to make sacrifices in order to win. There is no such thing as a sweet story about winning without sacrificing. Still, the less the sacrifice, the better, and it was only natural that Miliu, who succeeded in minimizing the damage to the main unit, would be awarded a fierce prize.

The Miryu visited Setuna shortly after the rendezvous between the separate task force and the main unit. With Lion's Tail squadrons like Faria, Ruufa, Emil and Maria, she jumped like she'd forgotten that she had company the moment she found Setuna by sneaking into a disturbing wave of people.

"Sethner!"

First, I got annoyed by her screaming to the point of pain. Because my voice was crying. She scratched a bunch of military men, shaking her red hair, and when she reached Setuna, she hugged her without stopping.

"I missed you!

"Miliu......!

Setuna was just a little confused by how she was even in tears as she responded to the embrace of the Spirit. Not usual. I find something unusual about her being incredibly luscious from her normal appearance. It was just a dozen days away. Much shorter than when Abard infiltrated. Yet her reaction, for a longer time, was as if it had been months, years apart, and that seemed strange to Setuna.

"Oh, you're very welcome."

That would be Esq. I guess he tried to tear it up as it was, but it seemed like he lost his voice to how Miliu was doing.

"You're just what I imagined."

"Not at all."

Reactions between Lem and Ragna are also not as expected. Ragna is currently held in Rem's arms, but it seemed to have led to Miliu's assault. Ragna is good at reading the air in the field.

"Nice."

"Captain. You can hug the captain, too, right?

"Yes, Master Setuna will be happy to accept it."

"I don't know... what the hell!?

"Well, surely the Admiral would accept it."

"Until you..."

Listening to the lively reaction of Sheila and the others, Miliu let go of the face he was burying in Setuna's chest. Her face, with tears in her eyes, was more that of a teenage girl than a woman in her mid-twenties, and the imbalance in the person Miliu-Levaire clearly appeared. Miloo as an adult woman and Miloo as a first girl. She is the one who lives with no contradiction in her conflicting nature.

"You know, I heard. Did you hear? Did you listen to me? My work!

"Oh, yeah, I heard that. That was awesome?

"I did it! I did it!

Childish even to words and deeds themselves.

Setuna responded to her, bewildered, as if she wanted to suspect that the toddler had regressed. In fact, it's something to be commended for.

"Oh, well done, Miliu"

"Oh......!

She raises her voice as if she was impressed. A happy smile. A joyful attitude. Reaction. Everything is full of heat.

"Hmm, what's going on?

"I just need Setuna to say that, enough..."

"Miliu......"

Setuna narrowed her eyes when she saw Miliu bury her face on his chest once again. I even have the illusion that I'm older.

Caress your hair and work.

In public. That's all I can do. No, even if it's not in public, it doesn't mean I can do anything more.

"I fought a lot, too."

Thinking it wasn't quite there, Faria looked at Miliu's fervent embrace. Setsuna and Miliu. Beside you, you don't even look like compassionate lovers to each other. No, I just see it that way. So I don't want to think that I have to be blunt - but there's no way I can deny the facts.

Of course, I am gravely aware that Miliu has the right to speak to Setuna first. I'm talking about Miliu. It is also within our expectations that we will hug. Everything is as I imagined. It was as perfectly as Faria thought it would be no more.

But isn't that why you never embrace Miliu until Setuna?

Isn't that what you proclaim to be socializing, such as having a hot look at each other like lovers and hugging each other in the crowd environment?

(What are you thinking, already)

Faria shook her head feeling her thoughts swinging in the dark direction, the bad direction. I don't like women. Jealous, ugly. Doesn't Miliu just like Setsuna and Setsuna just love her like that? Nothing is offensive. Nothing's wrong.

"Me too."

And, in agreement with Ruufa, Faria regressed much more to reality. Looking sideways, Ruufa has the same look he sees even in a smiling sight. From him, maybe it is. Maybe it shows as something smiling. No, he's not the only one. Isn't that what everyone but Faria sees?

Not because I felt that way, but Faria threw Ruufa a question.

"You want a hug, too?

"No way."

"Hey."

Laugh small. There's no way Ruufa wants to hug Setuna or anything like that. Not if it's Emil.

If it was Ain who asked, he would have agreed immediately.

With that in mind, Ruufa has returned the question.

"That means, Mr. Faria, you want to hug me?

"What did you say? Or am I wrong to hear it?"

I didn't say anything.

"That's right, isn't that what Mr. Ruufa said?"

"Like that?

"Oh, no..."

In Phalia's half-eye, Emil grew so elusive. Then the big woman standing behind her moves forward.

"What are you doing here? If you want to hug me, you can hug me. I want a hug, don't I?

"Doctor, what are you talking about...!?

Faria was stunned that Maria's statement could not instantly be understood - I'm sure she refused to understand it. And then I notice Maria laughing funny, and I get annoyed.

"'Cause you're not gonna hug me unless it's an opportunity like this, right?

"What...!?

"Captain!

"Maria!?

It would also be natural for Setsuna to have ascended to heaven. Maria hugged every millew into Setsuna. Miliu glanced at Maria for a moment, but immediately smiled as if she had guessed something. Then what do you think? Wouldn't it follow after the women who were watching over Setsuna and Miliu?

"Then me too!

"Me too."

"Me too...!

Whatever Rem and Ragna were, Faria glanced over and saw that even Sheila would jump to Setuna. The fuss around Setuna was an international standout among the rescue troops that had just joined, and Faria was nothing more than distracted. It is understandable that Setsuna is popular. Instead, may I say that the number of women who favor him is less than popularity and visibility? No wonder there were more.

(No... you're here... actually)

Faria shook her head in a hurry, sometimes thought of a woman favoring Setuna. What floated behind his brain and disappeared was the face of Yuno Lewe-Mardia, the princess of Maldia and something that seemed to have happened between him and Setuna, to a military candidate named Allegria-Scene, a Setuna believer lined up in Ein. Regardless of Allegria, I remember that Yuno did not even try to hide his fondness for Setuna, nor did he try to leave Setuna's side during his long journey from Gandion to Maldia.

"I..."

And when I heard Urk snap, it was Esq who pushed her back.

"Go on."

From what Faria saw, Esq's face was that of a mean adult who was completely enjoying this situation. But Urk can't possibly understand such finesse. She received Esq's words as they were and let her try to nod. And turn back to Setuna.

"Then so am I."

Urk's heavy body kicks the ground and heads to Setuna. Light orbit. But she weighs many times heavier than an adult male. That should be it, too. The body of the Magic Doll is a mass of metal. An artificial human being assembled in a metal made of a characteristic method called Spirit Alloy. That's the Demon Crystal doll, and that's the Urk.

Of course...

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

It was a scream that Urk's reluctant body, Setuna, had never heard of, that attracted the attention of the rescue troops.
