Different worlds of the last heaven and knights of the fist.

"... it looks like you don't have a pursuer."

"All right, let's move on."

Nodding to both Julie and Sabel, who had finished checking backwards, Belgrette stepped up the stairs.

As expected, the four infiltrators were already known among the soldiers, but it was no longer enough to cope with the influx. We barely encountered any other soldiers, and we were able to get here safely.

……

Finally, there's the third floor of the palace.

They were approaching Ohmsolf step by step.

Once again, there was a lot of maneuvering. Assault the king's castle and capture the king.

But everyone has come close to that reckless plan.

Mertina attracts Mutti and Greefoot attracts Migasintia. Lenore falsified the deed, and Larutz and Gado Gado pasted it around for the city's soldiers to disturb. Then the protector took over the palace's strength.

As a result, the four of them have been able to reach this point without exhaustion.

... but can you really carry things to the end?

"It's okay, Belgrette." This is how I got here. We're in it, too. "

"... yes"

Backed by a bright Treasure Hunter woman, the Girl Knight moves forward.

... an unbelievable wipe of anxiety in your chest.

Along the way, our friends, and even our enemy, Ohmzorf, have praised Belgrette's wisdom.

However, they are only "the reality did not come out of the range of prediction" tired. There was nothing definite, and it was always a long way to go, the Knight Girl herself thought.

For example, now.

What if Mutti, who was supposed to be pulled away, actually stays in this palace and shows up in front of us?

If there is such a thing as "what if", it will break everything down.

(...... I can't stop raising my concerns. For example, there are others -)

One. What if the Belgrettes, who would be on the top floor of the palace, in the deepest private chambers, weren't there in the first place?

In the event of an emergency, Meltina has told us that it would be the safest place of refuge for the Supreme Authority. But it was that Ohmzorf. It cannot be said that there is no possibility of an unexpected hand.

One. Where is Kinzol Granshua, who hasn't shown up yet?

Although I knew his name, I hadn't even seen him as a girl knight. It's incalculable what kind of thoughts you have and what kind of actions you take. However, it is a rare feature that allows for the only "fusion". They just argue that because they can't lose it in case, they won't come out to the front in a detour.

One. What if Mutti were to pursue Mertina as he sees fit, and take her with him instead of riding alone?

You have no idea what Orkestar's mysterious organization is capable of. It is not surprising that there was an unexpected strongman.

For example, a mercenary named Degga, who became the opportunity for Greerfoot to return to this country. He is strong enough to respond unharmed to handshots, and from the words he left behind, he must have come to Badar Nois, but he hasn't encountered it yet.

(Besides, in the first place....)

Above all.

It's the simplest, not the least... but if it is, there are concerns that cannot be avoided.

……

No, no matter how much I think about it, it's nothing.

Anyway, now we have to trust ourselves and our people. After all, that's the only way to counter that anxiety.

The big premise is that if it could not be eliminated - there was no chance of winning from the beginning.

Often proceeds with caution.

Belgrette, Edvin, Sabel, and Julie walked up the stairs and reached the third floor of the Palace of Ice and Light [Palace Shell On], the Great Hall.

It was unusually quiet. Very much so that it is unlikely that there will be an unprecedented raid and resistance downstairs.

The clouds are peeking out from the light sampling windows that line the upper part of the wall.

Two pairs of columns with a meticulous zigzag design support the high ceiling, and the floor along the aisle has a shiny blue carpet. A large and quiet space with a strict atmosphere.

The conversation between Hefnell, who visited the place for the first time, and Bergrette, who acted as a guide, resurrected in his mind.

For example, this hall we are in now is a place that you must go to in order to go to the viewing room.

Hmm. You're going to intercept the invading enemy here so they don't easily go under the king.

”Yes, yes. That's impossible, but... if something happens, it will be.”

At that time, I had no idea that I would become the [enemy].

And.

Exactly as it is now, we have just come to terms with the situation.

Fifteen miles or so in front of the passageway leading to the back. If we were to move on, we wouldn't be able to avoid it, and there they were waiting.

One is a man in a black robe wearing a bun.

Slim like a scraped off skinny body. A pale skin that looks like a dead man, an old wound that runs endlessly through its epidermis. On the waist, a saw-like, uneven blade is lined up.

The pale eyes captured the appearance of the sapphire. The purple lips open into a smile.

"Kuhahaha... Sabel Arhano is as strong as if he were returning to his old days."

In his distinctive, faint voice,

"Oh, thanks to you, I'm doing fine. Aldomirar"

The young man from [Wisteria] gave a light tip.

And the other next to Aldomirar.

A lean-looking man with a curved spine. Rounded up, looking up at the opponent from below. Bossy red hair, drooping eyes and large eel nose, lips hanging up in a distorted shape only on the right side. The contour of the face and the shape of the eyes and nose feel asymmetric.

Its different shaped eyes were directed at Edvin, including an undisguised insult. A distorted mouth smiles.

"Looks good and easy to use, oniisan ~." However, I didn't expect you to come here. Because... you know... it's hard to say, but it's easy to understand for yourself, right? It's obviously out of place. Position, strength, everything. "

Midir Academy's "rabid dog" strips his fangs after being provoked by an overt mono-tra.

"Keh, that guy who got hit by me is quite a feat, isn't he?" You know that, don't you? That was a shameful defeat. You're not going to get lucky for the second time, you nasty bastard. "

Monotra's eyes narrowed.

"If you think about what I'm going to say... that's a good dialogue." At that time, I missed you because you were still valuable as a hostage... but that's not necessary anymore. "

While saying this, Mono Tora nodded her right hand to her nostrils.

You're right!

The handshot, which was quickly pulled out, was fired at Edvin. The bread and the dry sound. There is no cover between them. Unavoidable situation.

But...

So the water column rose, and the swirling silver turbulence rose.

"I won't let you...!"

Belgrette's unfolded defenses swallowed the bullets and intertwined them.

"Niiiii!"

A mono-tra in the shape of an obstructed object bursts into disgust into his tongue.

But what is to be feared is the power of that heterogeneous projectile weapon.

"Ku...!"

Although it was a defensive technique that was prepared as a countermeasure to the handshot from the beginning, it did not kill all of its power. The bullet penetrated the thickness of the water and flew in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

However, there is no problem as a result. The targeted Edvin is safe.



So I looked at Monotraki.

I noticed the red sway surrounding Edvin's right arm.

It's me! Grilled aubergine one up!

Counterattack. A thriving villain spares no expense, his trump card scatterbomb.

Shit!

A mono tiger that lifts its arms and protects its exposed face.

The curved fireball flew towards Aldomirar, which was not the man who was fully defended.



It is too late for the man's cloudy eyes to be opened.

A fireball hit a man in black who stood like someone else. Explosion, black smoke rolled up.

"Heh, you're bothering me, you idiot!"

As he finished, Edvin raised his middle finger and laughed.

Masquerading as a counterattack to the monotraps, they target another enemy who was on guard. I don't choose the means to win, cowardly and superior. Such a villainous man is a clever move.

"Oniii-san....."

A black smoke rolled up right next to her, and she narrowed her eyes,

"--I 'm sorry to hear that."

Laughing.



In the immediate aftermath, Belgrette, Julie, and Edvin had their eyes peeled.

Flames of intense color flicker the smoke. The figure of Aldomirar stands as if nothing had happened, wrapped in a dazzling scarlet color.

……

The situation is different.

It was Belgrette who managed to surpass the suddenly shot handshake, but this was because she had anticipated the attack.

No place to hide, no place to hide, no place to hold a dangerous weapon. Therefore, I was wary of being able to move that small gun's head instantly whenever it was pointed at me.

But not Aldomirar.

The moment Scatterbom approached, he clearly had an unexpected expression on his face. I didn't expect to be attacked.

I couldn't defend myself from such a situation in time. Edvin's surprise strike should have paid off.

"Ku, hahahaha... you're amazing, kid. Surprise strikes are terrible imitations."

The man in black, protected by the flames, shakes his shoulders as if his mouth was not moving.

"Especially, it doesn't matter what happens to Deb. I don't even have to notice."

Edvin slaps his tongue in disgust.

"Belle, I knew it..."

"... yes."

― ― Total autonomous defense.

Even after hearing from Sabel, Belgrette and Edvin were half suspicious of their ability until they saw it like this.

A rare special power, just like the one we know about, Claire.

"To be honest, Teide boy. Is that what you're talking about? Let me show you. Learn how to use a real flame."

Not surprisingly, Aldo Mirard displays a vortex of flames on his right arm. A vigorous stream of flames, similar to Belgrette's Aquastorm.

"Yarrow!...!"

It would have been easier for Edvin to understand the same attributes. I think its power is far above my own.

……

Belgrette was also forced to make a judgment.

Currently, there are only two techniques to chant and hold. Either we intercept them in the Aqua Storm, or we do a defensive spell again. The latter is the sure thing, but if you consume it here, the art of resisting handshots will--

"Ahh!"

The Aldomirar blow was unleashed shortly before it could be selected as the longest.

The roughness of the flame, which resembled a broken river, was scattered by the purple shock from the side.



Belgrette, Edvin, and the two enemies look out for each other.

Sabelle Arhano, who had defeated the blow with a flaming fist from the side, laughed unstoppably.

"Aldomirar, don't talk about fire like you do."

"Fuhahaha... Sabel Arhano, who is very impatient." That struggle, I thought I understood which one was higher, but Teta-! "

For an instant, Aldomirar interrupted his words.

Autonomous defenses set up pillars to protect the magician, along with flashy explosions. The fiercely shaken flame seemed to be fluttering somewhere.

Monotra, who was standing up close, was incited and staggered a few steps.

They were formed by a straight whirlwind. The source was a beautiful woman who stood coldly.

"That's because of the power you borrowed from people, right?" How can you be so good at it? "

Let your beautiful golden hair dazzle. Julie Mikeus, who has her palm on Aldomirar, laughs foolishly.

"Everything seems to have been politely entertained by my label. I'll give you plenty of thanks, baldy-san."

In spite of her fierce hostility, Aldo Mirar laughed at her nose as if she had no intention of doing so.

"Kuhahaha... you look good, Sabel Arhano." De alone felt impossible, and I was going to borrow the help of a woman. "

"Oops, isn't that the two of us?" I need Julie's help. You borrow human organs. Yeah, maybe we're surprisingly similar.... I thought, but look at me, I'm the man everyone envies, and you're like a dead octopus bastard, there's a difference between heaven and earth. Forget the worldly melancholy, Suman. "

"Don't worry, it's the same." humans, etc... if you tear off a thin skin, you'll be as good as anyone else. "

"I can't stop talking." I'm sorry, but I didn't come here to have a good chat- "

The nervousness is heightened by the words.

Merchant, why don't you put some clothes on right now?

”... you don't have to tell me.”

In response to Aldomirar's words, the monotra with a faint strike of the tongue picks up an object that seemed to be in the shadow of the side column. It was a rounded metal helmet.

Unwillingly put your hands on your head,



Belgrette was relieved.

I recognized the helmet that Monotra was wearing.

The Heavenly Fighting Banquet. A bizarre weaponry of Septius, carried by a participant called Badarue Becker, who was immediately disqualified. It had the same shape as the head.

Keh, what's with the dassette helmet?

Montra's ridicule returns to Edvin, who laughs with his nose.

"Don't you get it? With this, it's easier for him to completely stop having to watch out for oniisan's fireballs."

The only thing that was exposed was his face, and he was wearing a thin septius under his clothes.

From what Belgrette saw at the Tenjutsu Battle Festival, it was a substitute for preventing even the flames of Dino. I don't think I'll be able to do any more biodegradable attacks on my teeth.

――――

Four of Belgrette's party, two orchesters opposite.

The Belgrettes would benefit from a simple number. But of course, it was clear that it was not the opponent that could push me to win.

Definitely a difficult opponent.

But this is a battle that cannot be avoided.

Well, it's time to get serious!

Beginning with the purple flame of the sapphire on her arm ─ ─ the curtain of intense battle now rose.
