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

Episode One Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty-six: Guardian Spirit

"Rain's Guardian...... are you?

Luca stared at the youth, just trying to rebut the words.

Youth who emit blue and white light can see that it is not normal. No, in the first place, the lump of light changed to look like a youth. It's not normal at that point. And you can see from the flow of power that it's not magic as the Lucas use it. It's not magic. More another, incredible force is at work. It was a gentle, serene force.

"Yes, I am his protector. I showed it to the world to protect him and Elenia. That's all I have. That's why I exist. Existential significance…"

"I don't know..."

Luca found it a little difficult to talk about a young man named Zephyrus. I don't know what you want to do, but isn't that enough to explain?

"Enjour owes it to Zephyr."

"Really?

"Yeah!"

As far as Rayne nodding energetically, it didn't seem like he was lying. I guess he's telling the truth he believes. In other words, Enjour has been protected by a young man named Zephyrus.

Enjour said he once faced a crisis of survival.

When the Great War involving the entire continent, also known as the Final War, reached Enjour, Enjour was attacked and attempted to destroy by countless Vashtarian forces. The result, however, is said to be a great loss to the Vashtarian army, and Enjour survived the final war almost intact. Though the “great destruction” that took place shortly afterwards ruined that victory, Enjour should be pleased because he is still safe thanks to the avoidance of intervention by the Vashtarian army.

Luca found out about such a story because she met Rain and after hearing about him living in Enjour, she was desperate to find out. The desire to learn more about Rayne drove her to a bad study. It is unclear whether the knowledge acquired in that way will be useful, but at least now various imaginations have definitely become a working force.

It is theoretical as to why the Vashtarian army ended up losing a great deal to Enjour and giving up control. One is that the Black Warriors, led by Elenia, stirred up the Vashtarian army with a divine tactic, causing painful damage. One is that a storm barrier engulfed the entire Enjour and defeated the Vashtarian army. There's no way the Black Warriors could repel the Vashtarian army, but the question remained whether there would be a storm that would luckily cover Enjour.

Apparently, the thread for resolving that question is the youth in front of you.

"So, Rayne's right, you protected Enjour?

"Yes, I have guarded this land where Elenia and Rain live. We drained a lot of power for that, but it shouldn't have been in vain. And so is Rain."

"Yeah!"

Rayne nods forcefully. Rain, who preceded Zephyrus, seemed more alive than usual. No, he was always full of energy, so much so that sometimes Luca, who was supposed to beat him in strength at times, turned up the sound, but his energy today was something different than usual. I don't know, it's shaky. Is it such a pleasure to be with Zephyrus?

Luca realized that she was going to kind of hate Zephyrus.

"I owe it to Zephi to stay with Luca!

"Yes... you are"

Luca was blinded by Rayne's full smile.

If they do say so, yes. If Zephyrus truly protected Enjour, it is not thanks to Zephyrus that Luca came out with Rain. Without Zephyrus, what would have happened to Enjour in no time? Wasn't it ravaged scatterly after being attacked down by the Vashtarian army? Weren't you following the same fate as Marsur? If that happened, wouldn't Luca have fulfilled her destiny encounter with Rain?

When he thought of it that way, Luca felt further destined to meet Rain.

And I thanked Zephyrus.

It's just that I was wondering, how Zephyrus protected Enjour.

"Maybe you had a storm?

"Yes, my dear lady."

Luca was bewildered when Zephyros threw a gentle smile at her. Because that smile somehow resembled Rain. If you look closely, your eyes look just like them.

"I have caused the wind. Because I am the incarnation of the wind. That much can be done."

"Then I wish you could help me fight the Goddess Church as well. It could be dangerous for Elenia and Rain, right?

"... it's the mountains that want to do that."

Zephyrus looked sorry.

"I used too much force to protect Enjour. This is the only way I can save my strength."

"You're so unreliable."

"Zephi worked hard, so that's not what I'm saying"

"... that too, isn't it? Dear Zephyrus, with all due respect, forgive me."

"I don't care. And you're right. Adorable lady."

Luca couldn't help but wonder how Zephyros called her. What a disturbing way to put it. I'm just not offended. To the point of concern.

"If I had a little more power, I could have helped Rain and Elenia. It's not funny."

"You... why do you want to be so helpful to Master Elenia and Rain?

Luca had no idea why Zephyros would be detained by Elenia, Rain parents and children, and questioned them. I don't know why he wants to protect only the Rains, because Zephyros is everything.

Zephyrus opened his mouth for a moment, staring at Luca.

"I was once called Arc Blue."

"Arc blue?

"Do you know Rayne's father?

"Wayne Bersein-Teulos!

"Oh, Rayne. It's just a question for me."

"Oh, I'm sorry..."

"I don't mind. Of course, I know. He was a rare armed summoner."

Long before the “Great Destruction," when the earth continued and Logner was an independent country, Logner had two distinguished knights. It's Red Knight Grad-Clyde and Blue Knight Wayne Bersein-Teulos. I look into that blue knight Wayne Bersein-Teulos as long as I can find out.

Because, Rayne's father. Luca wanted to know everything about Rain. I did not spare time to know, and I felt somewhat guilty about the fact that the matter was received as a manifestation of my enthusiasm for study and delighted Narna and her parents as a mistake.

Wayne Bersein-Teulos is on record as having been the proud armed summoner of Logner. When dealing with multiple subpoenas at the same time, the record says that they are not concurrent armed subpoenas. A person who was a one-wing of General Flying Astal-Lanadies and also known as General Flying's Devil's Sword. But his activity is interrupted by Gandia's leap forward. He was later killed by Setuna-Kamiya, who gave him his name as Gandia's hero, and he lost his life.

Setuna-Kamiya has been active ever since and has received Enjour as a territory. That would mean that Rayne was born and raised in his father's land of vengeance, but he didn't have the wind to care about that either. Rather, he even seems to love and be proud of Enjour as his birthplace. Probably because Elenia raised it that way, and some influences from around. At least Rayne didn't seem to think badly of Uncle Enjour.

Incidentally, Yubel, Luca's father, also has a history of losing to the Gandian army owned by Setuna-Kamiya. But Yubel didn't do the wrong thing, and praised Setsuna more often. Instead, he was referring to his present self because of his defeat, his days with Llusca, and the fact that Lluca was born. Luca didn't think badly of Setuna because of that either. The desire to meet is stronger. He left as many people as my father. I wanted to see how many people you were.

That, anyway.

It seems certain on record that Wayne Bersein-Teulos was one of the highest armed summoners at the time. The name of the Summoning Army that its rare armed summoners have always used is certain -.

"Speaking of which, you were in Wayne Bersein-Teulos' subpoena armed, Arc Blue"

"Well, you knew very well. Yes, Wayne's subpoena is armed."

"Are you...?

"... technically, it's not"

"What do you mean?

"Neither do I. I don't know"

He shook his head.

"When I realized, I was here. In my head, there was something about Wayne, about Elena. That's why I decided to protect Elenia. Then Elenia had a child born with Wayne"

"It's me!

"Yes, I know."

"Ugh..."

"I had to protect you about Rain, too. Because that's what I'm meant to be."

"Dear Zephyrus, are you…"

"I would have gone. I don't know. Nothing but the fact that Wayne exists only to protect the one he loved..."

After all, I didn't seem to know what Zephyrus was. I mean, he was arc-blue, but it remains unclear whether that was proven as well. It's just, he said.

"There is no question. My presence is it all. And that's fine. Other than that, I don't need anything. But if Elenia and Rayne survive well, that alone will fill me."

When Zephyros said that, he looked at Rain and then glanced back at Luca. My pale, shining eyes, they were beautiful.

"Luca. Please, I want you and Rayne to stay close"

"We were close, even if you didn't ask me to."

"Right. That's good. Hey, Rain."

"Yeah!"

Rayne nodded loudly at Zephyrus and looked back at this one. The same full grin as usual was not more attractive than this, and that was all she was filled with.

(I will always... always...)

When she rebelled Zephyrus' words in her chest, she admitted that the back of her chest was feverish. Not only that, but I felt warmer all over my body.
