Seed fire of the light of an earlier brave man.

Kannagi said that in front of the glowing vortex.

From the nuances, I wonder what kind of power it is.

"Come on, come on, come on. 'Cause I'll take you."

He's a hugely innocent smile in person.

I don't know how old Kannagi is, but he doesn't look that different from us.

"... what shall I do"

The options are limited.

At least staying here doesn't necessarily mean we can get out.

Or even if they take me to Kannagi... I'm not sure what that light seed fire is.

I have a vague, unpleasant feeling about it, but I also know we shouldn't take the option of not moving here.

"Okay, let's go see what comes out."

"Hey, wait, come on."

"Wait, you bastard"

"Guh!?"

Me and Mr. Ciel grab Koga's shoulder at the same time.

Instead, I stare at Koga, slightly surprised that Mr. Siel had a fastening method that I don't know if it was a salutation or a mouth.

"Why are you coming with me?" That's crazy, right? "

"That's right. Why don't you understand the situation better than this one? You know, kids, right?"

Mr. Ciel asks me, and Keira snorts while I linger.

But Koga smiles invincibly without ever showing reflection.

"Hey, I'm not following you here. You don't have a choice. Somehow I can tell, but surely Usat will be a hassle. But it doesn't matter to us. I've got a stomach full of fun things to see from behind."

……

"Whoa? Whoa? Do you want to take it and stand up?"

When irritated, Koga grins belligerently.

No, you can't.

Don't ride the provocation. I'm sorry I've come so far to deal with this.

"Either way, I'm following you on my own, and I can't help it. Keira, near Mr. Ciel."

"Oh, wow, is that me"

"Excuse me, but she's a child that has almost nothing to do with us..."

"... ok"

When I say that, Mr. Ciel joins hands with Keira in confusion.

From what this man has said and done so far, maybe he's someone in a position close to the Demon King.

Well, I wouldn't be a bad person.

"--- You guys are coming too. Hmm, well, come on."

Keira gives a frightened look to Kannagi, who groaned seemingly uninterested.

I step into the vortex as carefully as I can, as I go in between to hide her.

Then I wondered if my surroundings were surrounded by white light, and the next moment I was standing in a different place than where I was earlier.

"This place..."

Metastased? was a vast space that seemed half destroyed.

From the top of the head stretches an unknown phytosaurus, scattered with debris on the floor.

Not that it was dark, however, but a pale, shining stone-like thing was inserted all over the room, illuminating this vast space brightly.

I pointed in a direction where Keira noticed something confusing in a space that was clearly different from where she had been.

"Usato, that..."

"Hmm?"

If you look in the direction Keira pointed, you can see that something like a stone coffin is placed.

Kannagi, who emerged from the space, walks toward its coffin.

"Come on, over here."

……

Proceed with vigilance so that whatever comes.

The stone coffin is tightly closed and you cannot look inside.

"Come on, open it."

"Uh, no, um... I'm scared, so I don't like it"

I've seen this in a movie or something.

The first person I touched had a curse on me, and it was hard to see.

Kannagi leaks a frightened grin at me. [M]

"There's no bodies or ghosts in there, so it's okay. Come on, hurry up."

Let's go, I'll hurry.

Give me this far and I'll have to come to my stomach.

Worst of all, I'm going to throw that light seed fire and the dot, and I'm going to try to lift my hand in the gap between the sarcophagus lids.

I'm a little surprised by the weight there, forcing it away.

"Wow, it's a great force. Looks like an orga."

"It's this with vegetables. I knew it was a chemical."

"If I work hard too..."

I kind of feel like the demons are saying something I'm not convinced of...

We'll keep an eye out for Keira later.

Out of the way, and out of the lid of the sarcophagus, I finally peered into it...

"……! This is…"

It was the girl who looked the same as Kannagi who was inside.

Wearing clothes similar to kimonos, she meditates her eyes as if she were asleep.

But there was something like a tear of blood flowing from my left eye, which was fuelling the creeps.

"Why, to this man..."

Most importantly, it caught my eye that a knife was piercing the girl's chest.

"Another wave of the sword that was the source of my cage hand...?

A knife that emitted a pale light - it was undoubtedly another sword handled by the brave.

"This is why I brought you here."

"Kannagi, this is..."

"It's me. My body was sealed here just before the previous brave men fought the demon king."

The other cannagi sits on the sarcophagus where he sleeps himself.

"Let me guess, the previous brave... fought the Demon King, you know? No way, the reason the Demon King sent me here..."

"Ho, that's getting interesting"

Now I thought, is it good for Koga on the Demon King's side to hear this story?

In some cases, it's going to develop into combat... but given this guy's character, is it just better that he can't get attacked right now?

When that happens, I just need to move Keira to a safe place.

……

But you're saying that the previous brave men sealed her as one of their companions?

But in the lair of the kingdom of the Beast, Mr. Hayate told me that Kannagi was one of the brave men, right?

No, there's a problem in the first place, there's something you should check.

"Is this body alive?"

"He's alive. My physical time has stopped."

"… why did the previous brave men seal you?"

"I don't know what you mean, but he sealed me here alive. It's a surprise, when you suddenly think you've been in this narrow box, you're stuck in your chest? Well, I was surprised, too."

I don't know what to look like in a cannabis like that. [M]

It doesn't matter to me, she talks to me asking for my consent.

"That too, just before the battle against the Demon King!? Don't you really see why anymore!?"

"Did the brave man not take the knife...!?"

"Yeah. Though you're strong enough not to need me anymore, you just think it's too unscrupulous. I'm going to use one of my swords on the evil dragon before that."

Something, don't get more out of standard every time the information is revealed...

What the hell was it, the previous brave man...

"You're the only one who can unleash my body, Cage Hand."

"... this guy with the sword of the brave...?"

"Yeah. I know you realize that, but it resonates, doesn't it?"

Indeed, the cage hand has vibrated slightly since just now.

So I know the knife that's stuck in Kannagi's chest is real.

……

I've listened so far, I don't know if I can trust her.

As far as I can tell, the previous brave men were not bad men.

If a man like that kept betraying himself, would he still suddenly do that to Kannagi, his best ally?

Perhaps, in fact, it is considered a brave man that Kannagi sealed it with an outrageous evil man.

"In the meantime, let's tie the cannabis body"

The first conclusion I made, based on the possibilities so far, was to seal the movement of the seemingly dangerous cannabis.

The other cannabis panic about this too.

"Wait a minute! Please wait!!"

"Excuse me. Can you find me something I can tie up a little?"

"Why do you have to find something to tie me up for someone who's trying to tie me up!? That's crazy!?"

I still can't do it.

There's no convenient thing here to tie you up.

There's only debris around.

"He's trying to keep the guy who just can't move."

"Wow, you're scared of humans..."

"Be careful…"

Through the whining in the back.

He stood up in a hurry, and the cannabis popped up in front of me.

Her expression looked very hurried.

"Kee, it's natural to doubt your character, but I'm not going to hurt you! Rather, I want to help you!"

"Uh... no, I don't need it"

"Don't say that! Listen to me first!"

I'm just starting to feel sorry for you a little bit, so I'm gonna listen to you.

Although I still doubt it, it may be too early to judge Kannagi's words as lies.

"I don't care about Kannagi's body at this time! But I want you to receive the Seed Fire of the Brave Light!"

"Well, what is the seed fire of light?"

....... although there were obvious words of concern, should this be pursued?

Do you want to start by asking about the seed fire and the dot of light?

"The Seed Fire of Light is the source of magic held by previous brave men. If you hold that, you'll be able to use the same magic as your predecessor."

"... you want me to believe something that's convenient?"

"It's not something convenient. Rather inevitable."

That's what I said, another cannabis with hands on a knife stuck in the chest of a cannabis.

"This knife has been used by the brave men in thousands or tens of thousands of battles. It is no exaggeration to say that the memory of his battle, everything, is engraved. Naturally, it is equipped with his magical memory and some of its power"

"... can't you keep it for someone other than me?"

It would be a lie if people asked me not to be attracted to that kind of power.

But I obviously don't deserve that kind of power.

For example, if seniors or Mr. Leona can use light magic, that's invincible.

At least you can handle it much better than I can do with a kick in the ass.

"I can't do that. Planting someone else's magic system is a rough business, a normal person can't stand it. That's right... it's a lot like how vampires turn humans into their own kind."

The one Nair used to say in half a joke about how to increase vampires?

You normally don't like being explained that way.

"If you have this power, you can defeat the Demon King with Kazuki, Suzune and you. Can you bring the peaceful world you wanted?"

"... peaceful, world"

If you do get the power Kannagi says, you will be able to help seniors, Kazuki and Mr. Leona.

But is that really okay?

I still don't feel like I'm missing something important.

casually, turn your gaze to the koga behind you.

……

"Try pulling it out. It's going to be absolutely interesting."

"No, please stop!? What are you overlooking the Demon King's enemies getting stronger!"

"Ha-ha-ha."

"Oh, you stupid army leader! Oh, my God, you! Are you a personal priority?!"

Mr. Ciel is kicking a laughing koga.

Keira sends an uneasy gaze to me beside her like that.

When I was ready to take her gaze, I turned back to Kannagi.

"--- In the meantime, I'll wake you. Then it's up to you to decide if you want to receive the power."

…… Yeah, that's okay. I want to talk to you on my own. "

Kannagi seems a little relieved by my words. [M]

I raise my right arm, which has been vibrating since the beginning, hoping that the relief is genuine.

"Um, how do you do it?"

"You can grab it with your right arm and pull it through."

"Should I do it with healing magic?"

"Yeah. Because it looks like it's stabbed, but it's actually not. Don't hesitate to pull it out."

I mean, he's looking and poking around.

Fear, bring your right hand wrapped in a cage closer to the knife.

At that moment I saw the pale light wrapped around a knife turn into a light similar to Kazuki's magic - as if drawn to a magnet, Gatin! The cage hand caught on to the knife with the coupling sound that

"Become!"

At the same time as the smiling Kannagi scratches out, several lines of light stretch from the knife to the cage hand.

An alarm goes off in my head.

I get annoyed by the feeling that something can be rewritten in me.

Something's about to happen.

Ask Nair to follow the traces of magic and move on inside the ruins.

Mr. Leona will destroy the wall in the way or something, but we haven't even been able to rendezvous with the Usatos yet.

"... that's crazy"

"What's going on? Nair."

Speak to her as she twists her neck with her hands on the floor.

Is it possible that traces of magic have been interrupted?

To such a mixed voice of anxiety, she looked back here.

"There's almost no more high-density magic in the air."

"Uh, is that a bad thing?"

"No, I guess it's a good thing because you don't have to worry about magic sickness... but the question is, what was the magic drifting through this huge ruin used for?"

"After all, does it have anything to do with us being pulled away?"

To Nair's words, Leona, who was asking around, speaks to her.

"Maybe. But at the point where it takes all that magic, it means a hell of a lot of magic or magic was used."

"Can you still follow the trail?"

"There's no problem over there. Instead, it's easier to chase without disturbing magic.... In the meantime, the remnants of the magic are going on over there."

Start moving again in the direction indicated by Nair with his finger.

With my hands on Burlin's back. I also proceed to walk, the appearance of restless ferm enters my sight from earlier.

"Is Ferm worried about everyone?"

There's no way.

I'm being mean again.

While I laugh bitterly at the palpable reaction, I also mouth my honest mood.

"We're worried, but I think we're used to it."

"I don't like it. Such a habit......"

"I agree."

You were listening, and Leona, who was looking forward, agrees with Fermu's whining.

"... it's true I'm not worried"

"Yeah."

"But when they take their eyes off me, I get anxious that they haven't done something wrong. Especially Usato."

"" I know. ""

I was so convinced that Nair and her voice accidentally wore it.

Nair, who was following the trail, turns this way as he blues his face.

"Even while I'm doing this, if I imagine Usato may continue to make unexplained moves again..."

"No, it can't be this short time,"

"No, you were working on something like a healing blast wave or something like that! When did you make that?"

Talk to Nair, who is so angry, with a face that Mr. Leona can't seem to say.

"Uh, Nair. I think the healing explosive moves were made a little after the battle of the Demon King's Army. He was knitting it out in the middle of working with me."

"So soon!? Oh, oh, that brain muscle! You hid it...! And the healing bomb!?"

"That's... maybe during an earlier fight"

"Howaaaa!?"

Nair holding his head.

Looking from the side, Usato, I made another new move - but I suppose it would be a big deal from Nair supporting him.

The question of what are you talking about with healing magic and moves in the first place has disappeared a long time ago.

Specifically, since around the time Usat knitted the healing magic bullet.

……?

"What's up, Amako"

"Gurrah?"

I feel strange signs and turn around but behind me there are only ruins of rubble rolling.

When I tried to call Ferm and Burlin, who spoke to me, saying it was nothing...

"Ah! I can finally talk!!"

Someone appears with noise in a space where there was nothing.

Mr. Leona, who jumped before us, sets the spear of the brave man in the voice emanating from his unclearly distorted appearance.

"Who is it!"

"Ah, ha!? Nice to meet you! Oh, I'm impressed by the conversation I've had with someone for a long time now... Shit, I'm going to cry... '

……

Mr. Leona also looks surprised at the bright voice that goes against expectations.

As the distorted figure becomes clearer, its golden hair and familiar face become apparent.

On a straight face, bandaged left eye.

And when I saw a girl wrapped around a kimono close to Hinomoto's, I accidentally raised my voice of amazement.

"Huh! Kannagi!?"

"Ah, nice to meet you! Amako!! '

"Ha?... nice to meet you?"

What are you talking about?

This is the third time I've seen this guy in my dreams.

It's the same person with the bandage wrapped around his left eye, but his face is indisputable.

Yet how can you react like a first person now...

'Sorry. It's been a long time since I've spoken to people and disturbed them. It's confusing.'

"Who are you?"

To my question, she looks straight in the eye.

Her appearance is occasionally shaky, even when it becomes clear.

Perhaps he is like a ghost with no entity... is this man really a cannabis I know?

She took a small, deep breath, decided to open her mouth...

"Me HANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNH!?"

……

... Huh? Did you bite at the right time?

Pressing her mouth and blushing, she looks at us groaning and coughs with Cohon.

"Wow, I'm Kannagi. Chanting in the first generation, that idiot... the one who was sealed by an earlier brave man and forced to entrust him with the mission of seeing the world ahead...! '

……

Awkward silence for both here and there.

Couldn't stand it, the person named Kannagi utters the word slightly faster as he goes out of sight.

'Oh, let it be, I had warned you by daring to send a voice to a mentally tolerant Usat, but that wasn't all I could do. But the weakness of the magic that binds me has finally allowed me to make contact with you. "

"... voice? Could it be that he was speaking to Usat..."

"Yeah, me"

Before coming to this ruin Usat had been sent a voice like a warning.

The Lord of that voice is in front of you, Kanagi?

She starts to snort, yeah, about putting our arms around each other that's confusing.

"Hey, the other me gave up speaking to him, so good chance! I thought so, but his spirit was really too strong, and it was really hard! After all, you've just broken the curse of that Samaritan dorotten fucking outer road! '

You usually have a bad mouth, this guy.

Although the cannabis in my dreams felt like a floating person.

Nair speaks surprisingly to Kannagi, who starts talking more and more even if he hasn't heard anything.

"The other one, you? What does that mean?"

'Right. Let's start with that. "

That's what I said and nodded at her, back to the serious look.

"The culprit of this commotion. fake deceiving my name...... no, let's explain the other me '

Another cannagi.

I assumed it was an untrustworthy existence until now, but whoever names the Kannagi in front of me now, when I could believe it was a wonder - seemed like it.
