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

Episode 256: Nine Tails of White Hair, Again (11)

"Sheila."

Setsuna spoke, touching it, which could be called the hairball itself. Among the big hairballs, there must be Sheila. That can also be seen from the heart sounds transmitted through the hairballs. He's alive. I'm asleep in these hairballs.

"If you're listening, give me a reply. Whatever. Whatever."

You can scold me. You can insult me. Whether it's anger, ridicule, anything, whatever the word is, it doesn't matter.

"Let me hear your voice. Please..."

Setsuna said, pleading. There was nothing but begging. I just wanted to say something, hear Sheila's voice. As long as you can hear her voice, as long as you know she's alive and conscious, that's fine. As a result, her anger blows, and I don't care what Setuna sees. If she's going to come back, it's not what she found out.

"Sheila."

But there was no response to the hairballs made by Ninetail.

No matter how many times I called, no matter how much I called from the bottom of my heart, I had no reaction whatsoever. There's just a periodic beat, and it doesn't make any difference. That's why you couldn't give up, and you can't fall into despair. But there was something painful about not having any reaction so far, even as a setuna.

"Sheila......"

"Not for nothing."

My voice came down from over my head. The voice of a woman who sounded lofty and somewhat pitiful. The chilling, thrusting voice seemed to blame Setuna. In fact, I'm pretty sure you're holding Setuna accountable.

"I thought so. Sheila's heart broke. It broke. That's not true, but it's because you've separated Sheila."

Looking up, one girl was quietly descending from the white sky. Girl. Yes, a girl. She only looked like a mid-teenage girl to me. But I can imagine that it's never the same age as it looks. It's not just a girl. It has a very similar appearance to humans, but the physical characteristics were only severely similar to Sheila, who activated Heart of Beast Ninetail. In other words, fox ears pop out between long, pure white hair, with nine tails shaking behind them. What I wear is a costume that doesn't even look like Japanese clothing, and I wrap my feathercoat around it from above. The complexion is also clear and white, and the appearance of a strong temper seems to be because he blames Setuna. There was a good golden iris on his white face. I can imagine what it is. I can't think of anything else.

"Heart of Beast......"

"I was hoping that if I did, I might be able to get Sheila's mind back, but apparently it was pointless."

"That's why I'm here..."

"Wrinkles do anything for Sheila. That's what I decided. I'm sorry if I tore you to pieces and destroyed you, but I didn't invite you in for Sheila."

Heart of Beast let her white and supple hands gently lift. Light converges at the tip of its hand, forming a swing of spear. The shape is the Summoning Armed Heart of Beast itself. The sharp eye of Heart of Beast pierces Setuna.

"But that's it too"

"Kill me."

"If you don't want to be killed, resist. But resisting means scorning Sheila."

"... I know."

Setsuna didn't say anything more, or do anything more. Readiness had been decided, by the way. I couldn't save Sheila. I couldn't protect him. Same goes for breaking promises. Then I have no complaints whatsoever about being killed. There's no way I can complain. It was Setsuna who promised to protect him. It was no more than Setuna who broke it. Being resented and hated is not an event that should be accepted.

"It's a good idea. But it's also too late. If only we'd acted for Sheila sooner."

What was the intent of Heart of Beast's pitiful eyes? She flew in front of Setuna as she shouted as she kicked the void. The tip of the swinging spear glows pale. I feel a mighty flow of power. Setuna doesn't even try to resist. Black spear, roaring. Fight back, intercept, and it's going to be loud. But Setuna silenced it.

You should be killed.

Then many promises will be broken.

I know. That's not true.

But you think a man who can't protect one promise to Sheila will keep everyone's promise from now on?

But the moment I wondered if the silver light had flashed, the white runoff engulfed the Heart of Beast and bounced the spear off its thin arm. Setuna wasn't the only one who was stunned. The Heart of Beast was also out of the white running stream, not knowing what had happened. The runoff was pouring down from the sky.

"What...!?

"If it was for me, you'd do something for me."

All of a sudden, the voice I heard was that of someone who Setsuna knew well too. It was her voice. It was a voice I kept waiting for. Heart of Beast raises his bare voice.

"Si, Sheila!?

"Oh, my God, look at me with a cheeky face. Is it so weird that I'm alive?

"Yes, no, no, no, that's not it..."

As the Heart of Beast wolfed, a change occurred in the white hairball in front of Setuna's eyes. It was cocooned. It instantly unravels, revealing the source of the nine tails that form this white heaven and earth. In other words, Sheila, in a ninetail-activated state, showed up. Very similar to Heart of Beast. Fox ears popped out of huge amounts of gray hair, nine tails grown from the glutes, stretching in all directions to create this world. What he was wearing was also a costume very similar to Japanese clothing, and it was the same as Heart of Beast that was wrapped around the feather. Maybe that's the right condition for Heart of Beast Ninetail. Sheila just wasn't as bloody good as Heart of Beast. Even if it is thin. That would be so. I've been activating Ninetail for over two years. It was a situation that should be called a miracle even if life activities just continued.

"Sheila!"

Setuna accidentally shouted her name and took that hand. I have a reaction. I have a temperature. Alive. Confirming that fact, an increasing emotion ran through Setuna's entire body. I guess that thrill was showing up on your face. She looked like Sheila had eaten.

"Hey, what's up, dude? Always this guy."

"Sheila, Sheila, Sheila!"

Heart of Beast hugged Sheila and cheeked. Even if you take one of those moves, you can see how much Heart of Beast loves Sheila. It is therefore understandable that Heart of Beast was so angry with Setsuna.

"So, listen to me."

"You woke up, didn't you? You're alive, aren't you? Isn't that a dream or something? Are you sure it's Sheila?

"Hey, what's up, Nine Tails..."

"What are you talking about? Wouldn't it be a bad idea not to wake up...!

With the thrill of a Heart of Beast that even brings tears to my eyes, I watched Sheila flash as I almost cried for Setuna as well. The two of you dressed in the same way, still look like sisters. Of course, Sheila looks older in this case, but the actual age is probably much higher in Heart of Beast. The age of Heart of Beast, a weapon of the other world's will, is less than Sheila.

"It's my fault."

"Of course not! How worried I am and how much I think I called! That's this color-loving girl... if it's the call of a thinker, wake up in one shot...!

"Oh yeah, who's the color-loving daughter?!?

"Let it be so decided!

"Don't you see? Based on what!?

Setsuna, staring at Sheila turning her voice back and Nine Tails still holding onto Sheila like that, just couldn't help but be happy. Sheila's alive. Even naturally, very naturally, I'll be there. That fact shivers Setuna's mind and makes her fever. Sheila was alive.

"There are no grounds, if you look at how it behaved. Not at all worried... it was just a loss to worry"

"... you worried, you did, about me"

"Of course not. Who do you know about fright?"

"Nine tails of white hair..."

"That's the only thing you can forgive for. It's only natural that you want to be safe."

"Thank you. Keep an eye on me."

"Yes, once you're thankful, you can light it up"

Heart of Beast had a loose look, broken up. Sheila is important to me. Sheila, who can get her mind through so much with a summoning weapon, is definitely still an excellent summoning armed user, and if she had learned the art of armed summoning, she would have become an excellent armed summoner.

Sheila saw this one. blue eyes. One thing remained unchanged, clear, and passionate about those days was there.

"... and Setuna"

I can't thank you enough.

Setuna gave her heart, staring into Sheila's eyes.

"Instead, you blamed me for what you did."

"What are you doing?"

Sheila looked like she was exhausted. I guess what makes even her look happy is that, in short, her presence is important to Setuna.

It was not in a bad mood to reaffirm such a natural thing.
