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

Episode One Thousand Five Hundred and Fourteen: The Other Side of Hope (3)

"Problem…"

Sheila, rebuffing his words, did not want to be confused.

That's because he suddenly showed up. Without any foretaste, something didn't happen. Anyone who looks neglected would be surprised.

The person who showed up was Setsuna.

Setuna Zenon Lars-Enjour Divgard Seidlock. It's an official name that seems too long, but that was necessary to show his position. Enjoy the title of Royal Summoner Setsuna as Enjour and Dragon House and Said Rock Uncle, and you will know him well for the first time. Most likely, only the Gandia neighborhood can understand the title of the Royal Palace Summoner.

I was so surprised to think of that, because I had no idea he was going to show up.

"Oh, oh... it's full of problems. They're gonna fly us somewhere we don't know what we're talking about anymore."

"Were you careful?

"No way."

Sheila had no choice but to smile back at the worrying Setuna reaction. Setuna has that kind of place. That doesn't mean you don't trust Sheila's strength. After trusting me, he's worried about me. That was a comforting worry.

"Only me, that can't be right."

"Right."

Setsuna laughs too.

The calm grin was so appealing that it made her forget that she was in the midst of an anomaly, and Sheila often fell in love. I can do that because there's nobody else. With Miliu, I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to react that way. Not if it's just Rem.

"You're strong."

"You bet."

Sheila lit up, not because she's not used to being praised. Instead, I was so used to not feeling anything to being admired. Abard's history as a beast princess was too much to get her used to admiration. But if the person who praises you is different, the more praiseworthy you are, the response changes. I'm human. It is inevitable that the response will change depending on the target. It even makes sense. That's inevitable, even Sheila, who has been educated to behave resolutely towards everyone.

Sheila, it was only recently here that she found out she was like that. I didn't even notice when I was in Abad. I could understand myself thanks to the days under Setuna.

Too often my men tease me that only dealing with Setuna has become special, and I have become unnecessarily conscious. The result is different. I'm not in a bad mood, but it's not a very good thing that I can't keep myself.

"... but weak"

"Hmm?"

Seeing him in unexpected words, the sleigh was never gentle. Red eyes like blood must have Sheila's puzzling expression on them. Calm enough to make you imagine that, he had a soft look on his face. Isn't that when Setsuna has such a look like a normal time, or when Setsuna doesn't become anyone's opponent and is relaxed?

"So I have to stay with you."

Neat.

"What are you saying all of a sudden!?

That's why I raised my voice.

I'm on your side.

Gentle voice. My heart trembles. Heartbeat accelerates. I can see the blood flow quickening and the body temperature soaring all over me. Especially, my face is hot.

"Don't worry about anything."

"Setuna......"

Sheila felt like she was dreaming. There's no way there's such a reality, I also thought. But it's also true that it's not a dream or anything. If this is a dream, then all site surveys must also be a dream. I don't even want to think that I have dreams that are more realistic. So is this real?

She couldn't see Setuna. There is a fear that just seeing his gentle smile will melt his heart and even make his soul wander. I have the feeling that that's okay, but I also insist that it's not okay.

Goto is blocking her reason.

"I will protect you from what terrible things have happened. You're the only one I can protect."

Though that was a word to imagine a sweet future.

"... hey, what the hell?

Sheila stared at the person who looked very much like Setuna.

"Sheila?"

"You're not Setuna."

To the rapidly cooling flesh and crossing consciousness, I also understand that I am more of a cash person than Miliu. but I don't laugh bitterly. Accept, acknowledge. Exactly. Me too, just like her. I've become a person who can't live without Setuna. That's what happened. I can no longer do anything about it. Even if Setsuna was tied to someone other than himself, if that's not the possibility left in his future, or if Setsuna hated him, I couldn't think of a world without him.

That's why I can light up the praise from Setsuna, and if Setsuna whispers sweet words to me, it frees my mind.

That is why, the moment the person in front of her turns out to be not Setuna, her consciousness regains calm and concludes it as an enemy.

"What's going on? It's me."

"No."

Shake your head and stare again. The person in front of you is, indeed, Setsuna itself. You look just like Setsuna from the tip of your head to the tip of your toes. This is exactly what the dimensions are, and if I had the ability to reproduce it so far, it would have been outrageous. In fact, Sheila was totally fooled along the way.

"It's not Setsuna. Say no."

Set up a Heart of Beast and point the cutting edge at the target. A person who looks like Setsuna, has Setsuna's expression on his face, and speaks in Setsuna's voice.

That, she thought, was unacceptable. Not only does it trample Setuna's dignity, but it is also an act that ravages Sheila's feelings.

"Setsuna, you can't just protect me."

A little lonely, but Sheila also understands that that's his charm there.

"... this is what you wanted."

"Wanted? Me?"

Sheila looked surprised, not knowing what the other person's words meant.

"What...?

Setsuna set a black spear.

"Who are you"

Urk couldn't help but remember to question the Demon Crystal doll sitting in front of him while he was vigilant.

Standing in front of me. It was, indeed, the Demon Crystal doll itself. The hair color was dyed black unlike that of Urk, and the light emitted from the eyes of the Demonic Crystal Stone was red, very different from hers, but the body was the Demonic Crystal doll itself. A specially made body covered with spirit-alloy armor. He wears the Lion's Tail team uniform from above. I'm not wearing armor because it's unnecessary for the body of a spiritual alloy. No matter how powerful the armor called the new model is, it can't boast more defensive performance than the body. Protective equipment is meant to protect weak flesh. There is no point in wrapping armor that is more fragile than the body. That's why Urk doesn't wear armor over his team clothes, and there's no better reason than to look.

Urk questioned the fact that there are demonic crystal puppets other than himself.

Of course, the Demon Crystal Technology Laboratory of the Kingdom of Holy Deal had numerous Demon Crystal dolls developed besides the Urk. However, only Wolk has succeeded in the startup experiment and is still up and running, and no other Demon Crystal doll other than Wolk has ever been activated, just kept in storage. And with the successful activation of Urk, the researchers' interest was focused on Urk and the non-Urk Demonic Crystal doll was to be left alone. I have no choice. First we have to figure out why Urk started it, and as we figured it out, whether other Demon Crystal dolls start it in the same way. Something about Urk's activation involved something like a miracle beyond intelligence, and even Midgard didn't know if it was something that could be reproduced with human power.

Anyway, the only Demon Crystal doll Midgard was able to activate when he took Urk away from the lab was Urk, and since Urk woke up, there was no record that an activation experiment had been conducted with a Demon Crystal doll other than Urk. And while Midgard, the director of the institute, is away from the institute, there's nothing like his men taking the liberty of conducting start-up experiments or proceeding with the development of the Demonic Crystal doll.

The research and development of the Demonic Crystal Doll was carried out in secrecy, and the Deal government has not even reported it to King Rubeles Laignus-Deal. It is impossible for governments and kings to rush the completion or mass production of Demon Crystal dolls.

That's also why Midgard was able to vacate the laboratory for a long time.

The Magic Crystal Institute of Technology, although a Royal direct research institution, may be said to be privatized by Midgard-Weharam, and neither the government nor the Royal Family can speak easily. Demonic Crystal Technology Laboratory - It was the opinion of the Laboratories staff that, given Midgard-Waharam's previous contribution to the Holy King's kingdom, that much was natural.

In other words, after the Urks left the institute, the Demon Crystal doll could not have been developed by order of the King or the government, and Urks now had no idea what the hell the Demon Crystal doll in front of them was from. Only doubt swells up.

"Don't you see? It's me."

Who is it?

"It's Setuna. Your escort."

The Demonic Crystal doll, having told such things without any cowardice, created a small confusion in Urk's thinking. Standing right in front of you is a Demon Crystal doll. It's obvious from the eyes of a body made of spiritual alloy and a demonic crystal stone. Hair is not human hair either. It's specially crafted to withstand combat. No matter where you look, you're not human.

Indeed, if you look closely, there are many parts that resemble Setuna in appearance. It also reproduces eyes, faces, etc. that glow red in black hair completely close together. But the Demon Crystal doll is the Demon Crystal doll. Unlike humans. It's not a bloody creature. On the difference, Urk was taught, studied and learned countless times.

Demonic crystal dolls and humans were obvious and different. Animals and organisms.

"Setuna is human. It's not a magic crystal doll."

"I became a Demon Crystal doll."

The Demon Crystal Doll did the trick of putting his hand on his chest. Do you think they're imitating Setuna's tricks?

"As you wish."

"I have no idea what you're talking about"

Urk spun his words in confusion as he stared at the Demonic Crystal doll he called Setuna.

"What does it mean to be a Demon Crystal doll? Demonic crystal dolls are made, not become. Not to mention the fact that humans become dolls."

Demonic crystal dolls are objects created by human hands and successfully activated as a product of miracles. Though the body created with the thoughts of Midgards researchers and engineers is resembled by humans, its essence can be called something completely separate. If the Midgards had not obsessed with human form, Urk might have been born into the world as a being with a completely different appearance, a completely different function.

In that sense, I must thank Midgard.

Urk understands that he can make contact with the Setunas because he looks extremely similar to humans.

"What are you talking about?

"I don't know why. I became a Demon Crystal doll just the way you wanted me to be. That's all right."

The voice emitted by the demonic crystal doll, which looked similar to Setsuna, also, if heard carefully, resembled Setsuna's voice. The big difference is that there's no setuna there. Setuna's voice has a fever. It has the power to bring heat to the Wolk. That's not in the voice of the Demon Crystal doll.

However, the voice of the Demon Crystal Doll is not at all helpless.

"The difference between a human and a demonic crystal doll was bothering you. Didn't you?"

"Difference? Trouble?

The voice and words of the Demonic Crystal doll had the power to get into Urk's thoughts as a murmur and deepen the confusion.

"Am I troubled?

Urk, in an incomprehensible strange anomaly, was puzzled.
