In the midst of battling a toma.
For some reason on the spot, Krall appeared.
"Ku, Krell? Why are you here?
Suddenly, I asked Claire in confusion.
Krall is good at putting out the signs.
There have been several times before that I've been poked at.
So I'm not surprised you don't realize you're there until you can speak up.
But...... this is the Demon King's Castle of the Fuvel continent.
Yet there's a crail in front of me that's supposed to be on Meermill continent.
What the hell is this?
Maybe you came looking for me, or something.
If it's a "spatial connection" to a fire, you can't come here without time.
But how did you find out where I was?
After all, I don't know what this situation means to not ask about it from Crail himself.
"Ugh heh..."
Even so, Krall just comes near me with a thin laugh, and there's no such thing as an explanation.
……
Something seems to be going differently than the usual crawl......
It doesn't look human, or fake... and I think it's in person... something seems different...
Anyway, let's ask for an explanation first.
"... hey, Crail, get it right - muggle!?
Claire, who came all the way beside me... suddenly kissed me.
Besides, at the same time, Claire poured something liquid into my mouth.
For spit, too much.
Plus, it's too weird for me to suddenly kiss you in here.
He's a lot of insane guys, but even Crail should be able to do enough to think about time and circumstances.
"-... Ku, Crail! Get away from me! What the hell is going on? You are!"
I'm going to behave inexplicably. Pull the crawl off and stare her in the eye.
The color of her eyes felt more red stained than usual.
"Isn't it something good... it would be me and you... ugh..."
……
When I heard Claire's response, I was sure.
This guy... it's not Crail.
"... you... who?
"Who is it? That's a funny question...... as you can see... it's your crawl, isn't it?
"... Claire doesn't call herself 'me'. Plus... I'm not the kind of guy who gives you a gloomy vibe!
I yelled at Claire's fake.
What kind of prospect did you do this to?
More so than that. I can't believe you approached me like Crail... and kissed me.
Chest shit bad.
I feel nauseous.
I don't accept crawls with my mind in front of me, not my body.
... but the person in front of you, no matter how you look at it, is Krall himself.
Even if it's fake, it's too similar.
What if the crawl in front of you is real and manipulated by someone?
I don't think it's going to take anything like brainwashing just for him... should I leave that possibility in the corner of my head too?
Answer me, who the hell are you?
Again, I asked Krall.
Now I put a blatant amount of hostility into my voice.
Depending on your response, you can't just do it.
"Ugh... you've never said I was shady... you're the first..."
……
Then my body cooled rapidly and I couldn't even keep standing.
Hey, what...?
What the hell is going on...?
"You shouldn't because you look at me like that... uhhhhhhh..."
Krall put his hand on my cheek, kneeling, and gave me a creepy laugh.
The words and deeds, obviously, are not crawls.
That's why I can't even affirm that it's a complete fake.
Besides, what is this ill...?
This... this guy caused this...?
Ku......
I don't know what bad status it is.
Neither in HP nor in the Status column do we see changes that appear to be changing.
Well, then, how about we deal with it?
"Well... here's the answer to an earlier question..."
"Gu..."
Crawl, my jaw, which makes me feel bad in my heart, has been raised with my fingers.
I still can't get my health to stop me.
"Earlier you asked me, 'Who is it?'... Now let me tell you the truth..."
And Krall slowly murmured his name as he peered into my eyes.
"My name is Earth, and I have risen beyond a thousand years - the one who unites this world."
... Earth... because...?
There is only one person with that name...
I mean... this guy...
"Witch......"
"Ugh... that's what they used to call me... yes... I'm a witch..."
"Nah..."
Such an idiot......
Even witches...?
Besides, for some reason, the witch is manipulating Crail's body...?
Hey, Cross.
You're watching, too, aren't you?
What the hell is going on in this situation?
"... ku, cross?
Oh, hey, get back to me.
Cross it.
…………
Gu......
That guy... sleeping at a time like this...?
I was supposed to go somewhere connected today, so I just thought it was what was happening -.
"Ugh... I've cut the link between you and Cross Mireille... because I don't like being blown away with extra things..."
Earth said that to me in a hurry.
"Huh...?
"Did you think I didn't know...? Though only a fraction of it, I know that my mother's soul resides in you... the moment I see it..."
"Gu..."
... Apparently, this guy really is a witch.
The fact that I can say so much about Cross... can't be considered a witch.
"... Hey, you. Why would a witch use Krall's body?
That's what I asked, away from the earth in a cold sweat.
Turns out this guy is a witch.
If so, there are many other questions I would like to ask.
I just asked, and I don't know if you'll answer.
But only this question will have to be answered.
"Ugh... I'm just saying that there was a vessel suitable for me to make a full resurrection... this kid"
When Earths said so, he gently crawled his hands on Crail's body, which he was moving as himself.
It also seemed like a very benevolent behavior, which turned my nerves upside down.
"I mean, we at the Ingenious Engine were acting to make this witch a resurrection in a new vessel."
……
As I was biting my teeth off, Kara came from behind the aisle on the ground side.
Behind Kara are also Luvi and the usual masked Yarrow (though not masked).
Apparently, there was a bunch of alien engineers in this castle.
"I was originally planning to manipulate the Demon King to wage war and make it an ideal situation for the vessel,"
"The crazy thing about all our plans is Build Error, you're big. Your actions have averted the war... and amplified the power of the witch's vessel."
Luvi and Masked Yarrow have made such supplements.
... heh.
Is that what you mean?
Krall recovers and gains strength by sitting on a land where life forms decay or by taking my damage heel.
If what these guys are saying is true, the alien engine was about to wage a war to get Krall to regain his power, it will be.
And perhaps already, Krall had built up enough strength to be comparable to, or surpass, the full season with my damage heel.
I kept heeling her when I could afford it.
The time when Claire became a witch vessel was delayed by my actions and sooner.
"... Hey, Luvi. Hey... did you see that face before me a lot?
The voice of angry caged needs echoed in the aisle.
This guy, too, I heard what you said earlier, he must be angry.
As a demon, they used it to be good for the alien engines.
Well, it's not just the needs that are angry.
I ignored my illness and took up the fight.
"I don't care what your thoughts are... return the crail"
What happened and this is what happened?
I can see that, but it doesn't change what I do.
Get Crale back from these crazy people.
And you're going home to everyone.
"-So, to sum up what I just told you, that the lady there has become the body of a witch, okay?
From behind me, I could hear the tomato I'd been quiet about.
... it was.
There was a horse.
I just want to get Crail back somehow, but to do that, I need to do something about this guy first...
"... Huh?
Toma walked me straight to Earth.
Why didn't you attack me?
"If that fits..."
And the tomatoes - pointed their spears at the earth.
