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

"Tomorrow, Setsuna."

Ragna looked down at Setuna after plenty of dozens of seconds had elapsed.

Fei Long, with both of them on board, continues to fly along the outer perimeter of Benoa. The true body of the thirteenth knight was dedicated to the battle against the Fei Longs, and the Setunas were just as well missed. I'm treading that I can't break the line, so I guess I'm leaving it alone. If you can't get out, there's nothing wrong with leaving it alone. Everyone thinks so.

Now, if the Setunas could be a threat, I guess they've been chasing them, but that's highly unlikely. Setuna was no match for Sid's true body, even if she drew as much power as she could from the black spear. As things stand, even if we join forces with Ragna, we can only reward him with one arrow.

"Hmm?"

Setsuna noticed herself unable to help but be anxious about how Ragna was doing and became unnecessarily worried. I feel something squeamish in the back of my mind.

Ragna's green cylindrical eyes stared at Setuna.

"Give me the courage."

"Courage?"

"Give me the courage to die one more time."

"What are you talking about?"

Setsuna panicked. I didn't know what Ragna meant by the word. Courage to die? What are you thinking?

Ragna, however, continues without any problem with Setsuna's reaction.

"I am terrified of dying right now. When you have to die, you don't want to die."

"Ragna, you... what are you doing?"

"I'm a reincarnated dragon. No matter how many times you die, each time you are reborn, you get a morning. I took that for granted. It is the truth, then, that everything flows, and that what is raw dies, and what is shaped perishes. There is no such thing as permanent. Not even God is infinite."

Ragna looked forward. Fei Long continues to fly where the junction is shattered. Why is Feilong taking such a flight path? At first I thought it was to distance myself from the failing ring, but apparently it wasn't. Simply to make time for Ragna to talk to Setuna.

"When I died, I was anxious to be resurrected again."

"... so why are we talking about that?"

Inside Setuna's chest, anxiety increases. What Ragna tells such a weak story has never been. She should have always been arrogant, unwieldy and strong, looking down on humans. Yet from the current ragna, I could no longer feel such hegemony.

"I have found joy in knowing the decorations, in knowing the warmth of the decorations, and in living with them. I want to be on your side more. I want to feel the world with you. Yes, I thought about it. Then it got horrible. If the next death is the last time - think about it, go to sleep."

"Is that what I haven't slept in lately"

Here, in the middle of the night, she used to come into Setuna's bunk. And even though she was awkward that she woke up Setuna, she looked like she couldn't sleep unless she looked at Setuna's face. Setsuna didn't care. Because I just thought it was a habit when I was looking like Little Fei Long.

"I did something bad for you."

Don't worry about me.

I just woke up with that, and there's nothing wrong with that.

"... that's what moves my mind."

"What are you doing here?"

Setuna was upset when she realized that Ragna's smile was clear. And understand what that upset means, and be even more stunned.

"It doesn't look like it."

"Right. Maybe so. But I'm sure that's me. It's me. It's me. Not so far, but here's what I am. I want to stay with you, it's me."

"Ragna...... so why are we talking about that!

"The bond of Myvula that covers this Benoa cannot be destroyed with all my magic. Together with the power of our families and the power of the black spear."

It is also a nod that no one is injured because it is so powerful a junction. I guess that's the power of God and the power of salvation. It's not impossible to save the world if we increase our purity and increase our power even further. Whether it's Ragna's current power or not, it's natural.

"But for one thing, there's a way to break through"

"That's the courage to die. I wonder how this could lead to a story...!

"Not at all."

Ragna nodded, looking down at Setuna. Beautiful eyes looked magical.

"You..."

Setuna had no choice but to say a few words.

Ragna, seeing such a setuna, doesn't change one expression. Ringly beautiful woman's face, looking at this one.

"I spend my life, I use magic. Metastatic magic. Let's get you out of the way."

"Spend your life..."

"But if we don't, we can't cross this line. Perhaps even a black spear spatial transfer would be impossible to cross. The connections that cover this Benoa are multi-layered. Moreover, it distorts the dimension itself. If we do not spatially transfer ultra-long distances, we will be transferring between junctions. My magic won't get you out of the junction."

"So..."

That's why I'm repeating the same words from earlier.

He wants the courage to die.

I want to be prepared to spend my life,.

"Uhm. Then give me courage. Give me the courage to die."

The look on Ragna's face is calm. Clearly gentle and soft look. When you have to be prepared for death, why can you have that kind look? Setsuna felt her chest tightened. Various emotions gush up and fill my mind. Because I can see that her determination is strong and insurmountable.

"... is there any other way"

"No. It's impossible to overthrow them all and let Mivula unbind them. Do you understand?"

"Oh."

Nod.

I just have to nod.

We just have to admit it.

With Setuna's head, I can't think of any other way. Squeezing knowledge and wisdom is nothing. They say it's impossible with a black spear spatial transfer. In the first place, the black spear stays asleep. Even if I had other abilities, I wouldn't be able to. I can't even reposition the edge of the surst. Also, even the other family members are foolish to break this bond, and cannot cross it.

We just have to bet on the way Ragna came up with it.

We just have to live up to her life.

I cried and denied it here, and nothing changes. The thirteen knights, starting with the failing ring, will catch up to us and we will just have to fight. It's ridiculous, such as throwing yourself into a battle without a win. Unlike Santorea, where the strength of the thirteenth knight was unclear. As things stand, Setuna had no wins at all, etc. Even if a miracle happens, the situation cannot be overshadowed. Absolute power difference. Absolutely nothing in this world. Even if it doesn't exist, the battle results between Setuna and the thirteen knights will be absolute.

There's only one way to change the outcome.

I will not spend Ragna's life to escape outside this bond.

"It's still good to know. That's my lord. My only husband."

stare as she burns her full grin into the retina, carving it into her memory.

"Ragna......"

Setuna took Ragna's hand and stood there. It was so much more unstable than scaffolding the back of a flying dragon that it wasn't surprising when it slipped off, but this is the only way to face Ragna. We have to face it.

Ragna is dying.

For Setuna.

"What can I do? What do you want me to do?"

How can I be given courage?

I wanted to do what she wanted for you. That's all Setsuna can do right now. We have no choice but to indulge in the metastatic magic that risked Ragna's life. It's pathetic. It's unforgivable. It's painful. But as a black spear setuna, you can't fight the thirteen knights here and sprinkle your life. At any rate, we have to survive. At any cost.

Even if we were to lose Ragna as a price.

"Just stroke me as usual"

What Ragna greeted was such a whisper.

"... ok"

Setuna stared at Ragna's grin and held her body. I'll stroke your hair, stroke your back and hips from your neck muscles. As usual, be gentle and thoughtful. In doing so, I couldn't wait for my memories of the days from my encounter with her to today to go past my back of my brain, which was hard. It's like a running light. She's the one who dies, and she says she'll survive.

The encounter was an enemy.

She was a fierce dragon of demons, and the battle was fierce. After a painful victory, she was reincarnated and remained the toddler of the Flying Dragon, the servant of Setuna. Rem was delighted to have a junior, and Ragna, a loving little flying dragon, became popular around Setuna. And I was happy to be stroked by Setuna, as I am now. Sounds comfortable. And then Setuna stroked Ragna every time. I stroked him whenever I was in a mood, when I worked, before I slept. It became like a habit.

"Setuna. After all, I was lucky to meet you. I met the Lord like you, and I lived to this day with you."

"I will never forget that I met you and the days I lived with you."

I can't forget.

Without such a shocking encounter as Ragna, there can be no such thing as a servant as characteristic as Ragna. And I've never even seen a dragon as dedicated as Ragna.

"... I'm glad"

Ragna's voice was always beautiful.

Holding her tight like that, there was something creeping up. Goodbye is near. She dies. For your own good, die. The hand I was stroking shook.

My hand, which should have killed one scattered so far and taken his life, is now terrified of losing what it is holding.

"But I still don't want to lose you."

"... what? Are you crying? Why not?"

"Why?"

"No tears are needed to break up. Yes, he did, too."

Ragna's sobering voice made her feel that her soul had crossed tens of thousands of years. Even when you are young, your mental age is far higher than Setuna's. It's something I tend to forget from Ragna's usual attitude, but when they say and do that sometimes, I recognize them.

She has been a reincarnated dragon who reigns in this world for tens of thousands of years.

Even if he dies, he will come back.

"Oh man... who are you talking about?

"I wonder who it was. I can't remember very well. But it doesn't matter now. Tears don't look good on you. Laugh."

"Is it funny in this situation?"

Setuna hugged Ragna hard and expressed her will. I don't want to lose it. I don't want to lose anyone. Where I want to finally get it. Finally got a buddy. Finally. Finally...

"Laugh. My Lord. To the shore of arrogance. Give me a laugh."

"I can't do this."

"Well... that's too bad. At least I wanted to burn your smile."

Ragna's badly unfortunate voice stabs Setuna in the ear.

"... ok"

Setuna pulled Ragna's body apart as she wiped tears over her shoulders. To make you smile.

"Now, okay?

He made me laugh thoughtfully. I'm sure you have a half-hearted, scrupulous look like a crying laugh, but I didn't mind. If you're going to laugh in a situation that's not funny, this is the only way to do it. This is the only way.

Ragna laughed.

"Mm-hmm. Well done. After all, your smile is hard to replace anything. When you get out of here, I'll make sure you show it to the seniors and Faria, okay?

Ragna turned her back on this one as she stepped out of Setuna's arms. Fei Long is stagnant on the spot. It would be a consideration not to let Setuna and Ragna slip off or anything. Well done.

At the end of Ragna's gaze there is a sight half-way ruined in Benoa. Though the battle between the true body of the thirteenth knight and the Fei Long is still ongoing, the number of the Fei Long was considerably decreasing. It will be annihilated without standing for so long. There were hundreds of them.

The true body of the thirteenth knight.

After all, it was nothing short of awesome.

"... oh. You don't have to. I know."

"That's a good reply. And now I will die without worries."

Ragna's voice, she was laughing. Really, he seemed happy from the bottom of his heart, but somewhere he seemed lonely. That would be so. She is about to die now. She is a reincarnated dragon. Even if he dies, he must come back to life. But still, there is no doubt that it will be divided by death.

"Wait."

"What? I was trying to make up my mind."

Setuna hugged her from her back as she heard Ragna's shuddering, slightly happy voice.

"Ragna."

"Hey, what is it, what is it? What the hell......"

Setuna went on to say the words so as to ignore things like Ragna in a hurry.

"I'll never forget you. If you're a reincarnated dragon, and you're going to be reborn somewhere else, make sure you find it. Then I want you to sign with me again."

"Setuna......"

"I made a promise. I'll pick you up."

"Fool. Stupid. What... what?"

Ragna's voice was trembling. No, it's not just the voice. My whole body was shaking. And a drop, something, fell on Setuna's arm. I'm crying.

"I've never been happier, Setsuna. I'm not the happiest man in the world right now. Promise. Promise..."

"Oh, it's a promise"

When Setuna nodded forcefully, Ragna's hand touched Setuna's.

"hehe... if seniors find out I'm talking about this, it could be a fuss"

"Right."

Rem isn't the only one. It could even make a fuss about Faria, Miliu and Sheila. First of all, there was no question that Ragna would turn into a beautiful woman, and for more than a dozen days with Setuna, it would be a lot of noise just to find out that she was stuck.

"I'm not looking forward to it. I'll tell the seniors when."

"Oh."

Setuna didn't want to laugh, imagining Ragna floating with a full smile. That's fine, I thought. Laughing, let's send it out. I promised. When you are sure to find her and pick her up again. So let's laugh now.

"Have you caught up? He's innocent."

From the front, the true body of the failing ring was slowly approaching in its footsteps. Dozens of metres of giant body. Considering the damage done to the city, the stride is huge, although it is the movement that is dull and extreme. Fei Long was flying around so he could keep his distance open. You'll be able to pack the distance in no time than you're stagnant.

"Ragna."

"What, don't worry. I'll take care of it. Think only after Benoa's escape."

"Oh. Okay."

"Good answer."

Ragna unwrapped Setuna's hand and moved on. Then, Ragna's whole body began to glow faintly. The light enveloped her whole body and smeared Setuna's vision with pale green, wondering if she had painted a complex pattern. Ragna's life-burning metastatic magic is about to be activated.

"Okay, then."

Ragna's parting words were as simple as that.

That's fine. We'll see each other again anyway. I don't know how many, how many decades from now, but I'll see you again. We'll see each other. Find her who was reborn and raised her voice again. That's what I promise. The promise is to protect...

Every sensation was lost the moment the shock pierced the flesh. It feels as if it was disconnected from the world. Gravity and five senses are gone, anxiety fills the chest. And another shock. All senses were revived at the same time, feeling gravity. When the green that was dyeing my vision disappeared, I was blurred for a while.

Eventually, I realize the unfamiliar view is spreading in front of me. It was a plain. A plain that is so vast, there is nothing in particular. Green grass covers the ground, and there is a large rock, and a few trees, standing in the middle of nowhere. There is a clear sky over my head, and I can't even see the pieces of the clouds. The rays of the falling sun are always the behavior of others.

The success of Ragna's metastatic magic was beyond doubt.
