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

Lesson Two Thousand Fifty-Eight: Beyond Two Years

"Two years."

Setuna glanced back at Sheila from the vanished void of Nine Tails of White Hair and told her.

"For over two years, I kept him waiting."

"More than two years...? As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't been that long."

"I'm sorry"

"So why are you apologizing so much? There's nothing wrong with Setuna."

"That's not..."

"I do."

Sheila's blue iris looked brighter than usual. That must be because it is undoubtedly illuminated by the brilliance of this pure white world, but it also felt like Sheila's own vitality itself.

"This is how you picked me up. You're not gonna be happy about it."

"Thanks......"

"Hey, now suddenly what?"

"You're alive."

"That's... go to the white-haired nine-tailed one."

While Sheila seemed to illuminate a little, she went with a proud look at the same time.

"He was so uptight to keep me alive. Otherwise, it wouldn't be weird to run out of lives and be dead."

"Oh. I appreciate it, of course."

"If you say so, he'll be glad to hear it. Hey, Nine Tails of White Hair."

So Sheila gently raised the Heart of Beast. The well-decorated axe spear ripples as if to react to her will.

Then, at that moment, wondering if her whole body had been wrapped in pale light, the outfit that had surrounded her, the fox ears and the nine tails scattered as particles of light, and at the same time the white world, which was formed of the nine tails, collapsed without sound. And it is the clear skies and the vast wilderness that extend into sight, the battlefield and the formation of two opposing forces. Everything is an instant event, and at the same time there's been a change in Sheila's appearance.

The changes that were happening to her flesh had disappeared, leaving her without a thread. but the appearance was never exposed to the public. Because the fox ears, the nine tails, and the moment the outfit disappeared, the wings of the Mail of Dotor enveloped her whole body. It becomes as if Sheila wore black clothes. This wouldn't even embarrass her. And hold her with both arms as she is.

The giant body of the nine tails of white hair disappeared. The Setunas who were inside were likewise thrown out high above. One wing alone cannot fly steadily, but there is nothing wrong with just descending on the spot. Setuna slowly began descending to the ground, caring about Sheila, who was strangely distracted. Meanwhile, the surrounding reactions are popping into Setuna's ears with various voices.

While Setuna was being swallowed up by Nine Tails of White Hair, the situation had changed somewhat. One of them would be the movement on the Malwayside. An army, also known as the Provisional Government Army, was confronting the Imperial Army across the point where the Nine Tails stood. In addition to the Gandia Army Zalwarn First Army, Dragon Palace Guard First Squadron, it is the face of the Knights of Silver Ethereal Horses led by Eryl Alm. The number of soldiers is about two thousand. The difference in force strength from the Imperial Army is clear. Moreover, the upset generated by the disappearance of the Nine Tails they were asking for is immeasurable.

"Master Nine Tails... disappeared!?

"What the hell is this!?

"No......!?

If you hear a similar voice to the screams of the generals of Zalwarn,

"Nine tails are gone!

"Now is a good time!?

"No, we should stop it. Forgot the earlier warning."

The reaction of the Imperial General also shook Setuna's ears.

As a common reaction between the two armies, stunned by the disappearance of the monster of the Nine Tails, so did the loss of a patron saint for one of Zalwarn, which diluted his sad reaction or his joy in regaining Sheila. But I couldn't just leave Sheila like that, and it's true that Nine Tails was something that would eventually disappear. You shouldn't be sick.

The Imperial Army, on the other hand, naturally found a good opportunity for the disappearance of Kyouo, a subject that has so far been stopped from invading the scattered Zalwarn side. From the power of the Imperial Army, it was not enough to take the Provisional Government Army, etc., and it should have been the intention of the Nine Tails to be so dominating as to be west of Malware, etc. Not only had it stopped, but Nine Tails, which had even ravaged the Imperial Army, disappeared. Naturally, an opportunity arose, but a voice of a commander-like figure seemed to have held back the deviant soldiers.

Setuna's restraint earlier was pointless.

When I got off the ground, there was a horseback riding rushing over from the Malvasian side.

"Setuna! Are you all right!"

The sharp and brave voice belonged to Eryl Alm, and Setuna looked back at her as she held Sheila back. Eryl Alm on horseback was dressed in silver and pale armor, and was the beauty bearer who deserved exactly the title of Lord Knight.

"Oh, Sheila's safe, too."

"Right! And Sheila!"

"Lord Eryl Alm."

"Oh. I've been so worried about Sheila."

"Oh well... Lord Eryl Alm..."

Eryl Alm jumped when she took her men and stopped the horse in front of Setuna and the others. Being far taller than Setuna, she peered into Sheila's face and asked to make sure she was safe. Sheila was happy with Eryl Alum's reaction like that, too, and she let down her mouth.

"Safe... more than anything. Sheila."

"Looks like I worried..."

"No, it's fine. If you're all right."

The look on Eryl Alum's face that grated her breasts seemed to show how much she trusted Sheila.

"That's right, Eryl Alum. Can you get Sheila something to wear?"

"What to wear...? Oh, oh, okay. We'll arrange it right away."

Eryl Alum just took a glimpse of Sheila in Setuna's arm and seemed to have guessed what Setuna was up to. I call my men, I give them orders. Watching how it went, Setuna went to Sheila.

"Until then, be patient with me."

"No, well, I'm not dissatisfied... hey, I'm embarrassed"

"Patience me. I just couldn't think of a change of clothes."

"Ugh..."

Setuna couldn't think of anything more she could do for her, although she felt sorry for Sheila moving embarrassed in her arms. There is also the hand of putting on a mail-of-doer, but unfortunately the mail-of-doer is a light armor and can only hide the upper body. Sheila, who has never used a mail-of-doer, has no way of being able to control her wings or anything, but has to round out her lower body. Then it would be better for Setuna to control the wings of the Mail of Dotter and wrap Sheila around her, for sure. Wings are as thin and transparent as butterfly feathers, but folded in multiple ways, making them no longer clear.

"Now, where is the Commander of the Imperial Army?"

"The Imperial Army? Those guys?

Sheila looked at the army with surprise and showed no signs of moving vigilantly this way. Like Yunxia, and not so much so, it is still somewhat tense for a crowd of generals far more numerous than it is for its own army. It hasn't moved while forming behind an empty hole in the earth, because Setuna's warning felt somewhat threatening, which would mean that there are commanders in a situation that would be driven by a third force, but capable of making a calm decision.

This means that if that commander holds the full authority of the Imperial Army, then there is room for negotiation.

"I mean, where am I? And what the hell happened?

"We'll talk more later. Longer."

"Oh, oh... ok"

After the disapproval nod, Sheila felt something. I'm going to stare at Setsuna. The sharpness of its gaze can be described as an expression of Sheila's bravery, once bewitched with the Beast Princess.

"I mean, you're not going to go to the negotiations like this, are you?

"Are you going to?

"Hey, you gotta be kidding me"

"What?"

"Me"

Sheila put her right hand out of the black feather coat and showed her face with her index finger. I immediately put my hands back in my nostrils, probably because I was embarrassed to feel like I was exposing my skin.

"Oh?"

"I was just embarrassed. What?"

"Eryl, it's going to take some time for Alm to get you something to wear. We don't necessarily expect the Imperial Army to wait forever, and we need to negotiate as soon as possible."

"I don't know what you're talking about..."

"Or are you waiting here with Eryl Alum?

"Naked."

"If you wait, don't"

"Setsuna, do you think I can be seen naked by others?"

"No way."

In contrast to Sheila's joke, Setsuna said something to the point.

"You're mine."

"... yeah"

(That?)

What Sheila had nodded quietly without laughing or forcefully denying was an unexpected reaction for Setuna. But then, thanks to Sheila's silence in Setuna's arms, Setuna can finally embark on negotiations with the Imperial Army, so I guess it wasn't a mistake.
