"Ha... what..."

Are you all right, Governor?

Sakuragiri went down the long stairs of the royal spectator seat, supporting the ruler of the breath-taking refe.

"Sorry, Saeri... I'll take care of you..."

"No......"

"Hit it, you old bastards... If the martial arts festival is over, remember."

The governor roars abominably.

The old men in the Millennial Parliament, who were in the games seat, had each taken their direct men and let them flee with us.

Tired of watching long games and unexpected events, the governor took the form of being left alone, and had just begun his evacuation with Sakuragiri, who remained until the end. Nevertheless, this royal viewing seat is built in a position where dignitaries can quickly evacuate in case of an emergency like this one. A few of the soldiers who went ahead should be pulling a carriage to the nearby field shortly.

(Pretty much... fewer people, I guess)

Looking around, the sight of busy moving soldiers towing a group behind the waves. This neighborhood seems to be almost complete with evacuations.

With them sideways, Sakuragiri looks into the large mirror of the nearby field.

……

- Exactly, the death fight.

I don't mind disqualification, and Dino Gailroen, who literally jumped out of "The Garden of Infinity," waves the pillar of flame he could carry on his left hand like crazy.

With his blood-stained right arm sluggishly lowered, he continues to unleash a density of indiscriminate fire with beastly velocity and harshness that does not seem to be due only to one arm. The opposing Predilecke smiles all of it with a twisted sickle.

Red majesty, which is likely to bring all things back to ashes, but fails to break through the Obsidian barrier.

I can't help it. Simply one arm and both arms. There's no need to argue which one has a minute, plus the other is a monster far outnumbered by humans and so on.

Even Sakuragiri can understand that a young man named Dino is abnormal, even if he is merely establishing such a sword trident against such a grudge demon.

But.

"Chi......!

The remnants of the black shadow blurred, and the transcendental redhead danced through the universe.

Horrible is this grudge demon.

Above and beyond the ramblings of Dino, known as "The Murderer,"

"Ugh...!

"Oops!

It's the voices of Tyzene and LaDale that sound.

Dino retreats and waves a sickle without alarm against the two approaching him to fill that void.

The old warrior's ice arms are shredded and splashed with brilliant fragments all around him. The cheeks of the second son of the spear ripped shallow and blood colored the void.

'... Damn, give me a break with your face. If it turns out to be a scratch thing, there are a lot of grieving women......!

While slapping lightly, there was a bead-like sweat on the forehead of the beautiful young man.

In a moment, a light strip shining in purple flies in for a grudge demon.

Greater than the sword once handled by Sakuragiri, it pierced the earth with a shallow blur on the face of "The Black Ghost" and vanished immediately.

If the resentment demon finally tours his face far from that of Kamakiri, the figure of Duen swinging his arms out in an unreachable position of sickle. A warm, unseemly look with a thin grin. Its face is also familiar to Sakuragiri. However,

……

I rub my eyes unintentionally.

Duen's appearance seems to be sumptuous - is it because you feel like 'showing' is bad somewhere? Like a Yangtze, the air around him looks distorted.

Together, one by one. Mutual.

Right now, we can call that a good war situation.

Other than Dino, they are a selection of warriors in the refe. It's never going to be possible to break through.

"Governor, witch! Here it is! We have a carriage!

So one serious looking soldier rushed over. Looks like we're ready.

Evacuate into the carriage for a moment and, in the worst case scenario, leave immediately. As for dignitaries and their associates, that was the way to go.

"Okay... let's just say we're going, Saeri"

"Yes -,!?

The moment he nodded at the governor, Sakuragiri doubted his eyes.

Totally idle, around the royal spectator seat.

There was a figure of a man running down the sidewalk, avoiding people's eyes.

Its direction of travel is the opposite. Instead of fleeing, we are clearly aiming for the front line where the struggle against resentment is being waged.

Adventure-style travel outfit. Beautiful leather cape and blue hair. It's too positive. The side of it...

(Belle child...... honey......!?

Such a rare beauty cannot be misseen.

Belgrette was on his way to the area where the battle was taking place.

(What the...!?

In my previous contacts, I thought she was a girl with a strong sense of justice.

Serious, honest... but not at all accommodating, beautiful girl knight. Noble yet unpleasant and serene in character, it is not impossible for a drifting guardian to fall in love.

Is it because of its righteousness?

She looked like she was trying to rush off with the intention of helping fight Predilecke. Rather, it just seemed so.

"I'm sorry, you know, I need a governor!

"Become!? Mi, witch, which way?!?

"Duh, what's up, Saeri!?

"Because I found someone who missed the run!

I entrusted the governor to the soldiers, and the witch was rushing out faster than she thought.

"Dear Saeri!? What are you doing here!?

"Excuse me, step aside!

It's even a waste of time explaining it at length.

Find a witch who runs in the opposite direction to escape, and run through soldiers rushing to stop her. He is a heavily armored soldier against Sakuragiri in a light witch outfit. It wasn't that hard to shake it off.

Bend into the steps separating the viewer's seat from the sidewalk and see what's going on around you. So,

"Mummer, mummer......!

I guess I'm running late. A weeping little girl found herself walking in a deserted viewing area with a toe bottomed.

"... eh"

Not everyone could have been completely evacuated yet.

This situation is beyond the reach of the soldiers. In the unlikely event that the front line collapses, this could be a battlefield soon as well.

You can't leave Belgrette alone, either, but you can't overlook this kid. Wait for everyone's evacuation to be complete, then tell them so. The moment Sakuragiri tried to jump out,

"Whoa, little concession! Have you and your mother fallen apart?

A little fat man with an inebriated beard came hurrying to his feet. It looks familiar. Sure, he's one of the warriors who was at the martial arts festival.

"My mom... she doesn't have a mom... Higu......, uhhhhhh"

"Alright, I'll take care of it! Gadgad in Weiwaten means me! You see, I'm confident in how fast my feet are. In no time, I'll take you to your mother!

Ni, and from behind the guy with the clumsy smile,

"I'm sad... I can't believe such a little girl would be separated from her mother... that's sad. Ugh, uhh..."

A very beautiful young man shows up. This person also remained clearly in Sakuragiri's memory. Later in the fight when "Launch Fire" began, I met that Dino Gailroen from the front -

"Greefoot's husband, if you have time to cry, look over there. There could still be a guy who's running late or something."

"Right. If there's still someone like this girl, it's... uh-uh-uh-uh."

Wiping the tears, the beautiful young man in the travelling costume heads to the spectator's seat on the other side.

If you look closely, these two aren't the only ones. Other warriors who looked familiar as participants were about to come this way. themselves, who have just finished their fierce struggle in the woods. Many people have blood seeping out of a wound bandage. Still, I'm moving to help everyone evacuate.

……

It's okay. With these people, you don't have to worry about the audience. I go after Belgrette.

I also want to stay here and avoid the trouble they and the other soldiers find me in.

I made sure there was no one nearby, took off my grass and ran through the sidewalk with all my strength with my foot pockets.

I can see it missing just now, that back I saw earlier. At first glance, the adventurer-style appearance can be confused by other participants. Knowing her is who I am, if I don't stop here.

"Belko!

If I called, the girl knight far away looked back.

"... uh, sa... saeri? Why are you here...?

"No, no, it's the line over here! Where are you going?"

When he finally caught up and questioned him with a breath on his shoulder, Belgrette laid her eyes down slightly and nagged.

"Belko, no way... with that grudge demon... are you going to fight, or what?

…………

Sakuragiri, who received the silence as an affirmation, grabbed Belgrette's arm.

"No more, no more. I have a strong sense of justice. Belko doesn't have to leave, it's okay. With all the soldiers and Mr. Duane..."

"I don't..."

Pull the sleeve, but the girl knight doesn't move like she's rooted.

"... that grudge demon... my..."

And so she spoke, succinctly but politely. Causes with Predilecke. And the will to get over it and move on.

"Chi......"

The air heated by its own flames and the heat of summer make it sweat no matter what.

Five hours from the start of the heavenly banquet. Even though it was a minor 'penta', her strength and concentration had been greatly shredded.

(Not enough je......)

I get irritated.

Duen asked me to stop Predilecke, Dino, but I wasn't even willing to defend myself to discipline.

Let's rebel the promise, that doesn't mean.

As I slapped him lightly - he was not stopping or anything, he was attacking Predilecke with the intention of knocking him down.

But...

A black iron monster nestled in front of me. That grudge demon, stained slightly red with the grace of God in the day when he began to lean, did not allow a direct blow as just a blow.

(... it's like another mon)

This is what - this monster, "The Black Ghost" is all about.

A non-existent, flat space of trees that hinder the gigantic body. The accuracy of the sickle wielded on a battlefield with nothing to block was increasing beyond comparison to the struggle in the woods.

Range of up to ten miles or more. Long-range sickles to near-range spears, deformation to defense-specific shields. Those, even the speed of switching is increasing.

Dino, against him, was beginning to breathe on his shoulders.

My right arm has also stopped moving for a long time. For hanging around for no reason, I even feel disturbed. It was enough to be driven by the urge to slash it off.

That's how now, for the first time in Dino, the thought of tasting was running around my brain.

I don't have enough firepower of my own.

The struggle itself is not that long. Death fights with that boy, who was the first defeat, can also be considered a relatively recent story.

But that was a 'hit and it'll be over' struggle for both sides.

But - now this opponent...

I get caught. I can't reach it. I can't defeat it.

When was it given, the unhappy alias "Dinofang," "Twin-Tooth of Hellfire"? Its iconic two-pronged flame gain. There are no enemies that cannot be chewed up in front of this fang, and in fact, this has led to numerous victories.

But - in this heavenly banquet, successive opponents appeared against this fang.

That brunette boy, wrapped around a tough armpit. An old fanatic, dressed in a soldier costume called Septius. A strange beautiful young man, who grew ice legs on his back. Dark-skinned giant, dressed in an auspicious style. Lefe's most famous, thunderous assassin. And the steel monster standing in front of you...

(Tamane...)

He was right to come out of Raindeer, the young man licks his lips. I just came to the neighboring country, and I was able to patrol with so many powerful people.

Okay. Besides - what are we going to do with this phase now?

It doesn't matter...... it looks like 'Penta' and it would be one way to try and free the flames with all your might. If you want to do it, you can also turn the area into scorched earth.

But if you imitate that, it involves the people around you.

If you hurt your client more than you're tired of joining the fight in the form of a helper, you're down to business. Still, the Duens would outdo it, but a large number of other soldiers can definitely steam and grill.

(... Narhodo, I feel it)

I need it.

I need it.

An extremely polished means of attack, not such a common 'penta' force. It's like surpassing your iconic double flame fangs - sophisticated, with the power to smash only your goals.

"... yes, what. Your brother's..."

"Yes."

Speaking out the words that followed, Belgrette nodded with a strange face.

As for Sakuragiri, born and raised in peaceful Japan, I don't really know what it's like.

Vengeance.

But it's easy to imagine.

If my father, my mother and my friends were badly behaved. I'm not sure I can stay sane.

Sakuragiri himself, wanting to keep Digos and Shiatsu away from the threat of Enrokaku, let's go to Karndala, etc. - because now even in retrospect he has tried to run into a frightening act.

A family vendetta that I've dreamed of playing out for years. Before that, there can't be cheap stopping words or anything like that.

Still,

"I knew it... but it sucks, that grudge demon..."

I couldn't even think of a good persuasion, I was just nagging and grabbing the hem of Belgrette's traveling outfit. Don't let her go.

"... Honestly, I'm scared too..."

Hearing the words, Sakuragiri looks up unexpectedly.

I don't see any spots or roughness even close by, the face of a girl knight who is too beautiful. The expression was slightly stiff, and the frightened color floated in the eyes of the lightly iced "Ice Blue".

"Still, I... I have to move here, I can't move on forever. I feel that way. As your brother's sister, as a knight... I want to fight alongside Lugo, personally."

More than fear, with an eye full of bravery and determination.

"... Belko, let me just confirm one thing. You're gonna stab me wrong with that grudge demon, or you're ready to smash balls... you don't, do you?

If the death of Digos - the handover of his body to Enrokaku is confirmed, he intends to die like himself.

"No way."

In response to the concern, the Girl Knight smiles thinly and waves.

"Just like I said. Because I want to move on. I won't expose you to self-sacrifice. If you attack here for no reason and lose your life, the refeit will be annoyed."

A smile. Seriously, or around even turning a blind eye to the inner feelings of the refeit, I guess it's certainly not a rash.

"Oh well. All right then. But..."

It is naturally that question that comes to mind behind Sakuragiri's brain.

"Something... do you have an operation?

The opponent outwitted the onslaught of Digos, Duen, Lifeguard and Dino, and at the end of the day it is a genuine monster that let even the soldiers and Tyzen kick their asses. Even though Belgrette is also an armed knight apprentice, his opponent is too bad.

I guess I perceived Sakuragiri's mood like that.

"I do.... to me... as long as I hit it, there's a blow that ends"

Quiet. Belgrette shrugs her gaze down on her own right hand. He seemed to be telling himself that he wanted it to be so.

- That's a sword.

What is that 'swing'? In every sense, is.

A great knife. For one blow only. After exercising it, you won't even be able to take physical moves, just one hand of pearl infused with your whole spirit.

Sounds like an honest, hiatus girl knight, arguably the secret to embodying the way it is.

gliding sky by reverse injection of water flow. Rapid acceleration, approaching, slashing and lying under a blow. That's just it. I don't think about "what if".

……

Sakuragiri swallowed a word that went all the way out to his throat.

Far from bizarre or smug. Too foolish, a knife in a penetration.

...... too reckless. It's almost a life-threatening act to say that you weren't willing to die on Belgrette, though.

"... the danger is well known. But... that's how I've fought. I... we, the knights and soldiers"

I wonder how much a Japanese girl persuaded me that a proud knight of a girl from another world would never break.

"... Eh, Belle, promise me. He said he wouldn't be impotent. Be calm and think, and give up if you think you can't. I knew it was too dangerous."

Still, I couldn't help but say.

Sometimes I got close because of it.

As a feeling cultivated in the environment of Japan, I also had the intention that if there was' something 'in Belgrette as a result of what I overlooked here, I would be offended by guilt.

"You have to promise me... because I won't let you go"

Gu, and hold the sleeve of the Girl Knight's traveling costume hard that left her grasping.

"Mm, I promise."

As I've noticed. Belgrette nodded with a smile.

He nodded back as well and said that Sakuragiri was flat.

"Okay, I'll come with you."

"Huh?"

"Belko is really impotent, I need to see it right."

"... already. I can't help it."

From the look on his face, he must have realized that persuasion was futile. Most importantly, it should be a waste of time standing talkin '.

"Okay, let's go, Belle! Try not to be found by soldiers or anyone else..."

The moment I said that and ran out,

"Sa, Dear Saeri!?

Suddenly a third party voice broke in.

Before I could finish saying it from beside what I said, it was Sakuragiri who turned to me in a hurry,

"... ah"

Raise your voice unexpectedly to the appearance of the coming person.

He was a small female soldier. women, much sooner to describe them as. Girl soldier, that would apply better. Is he about fourteen or five years old?

It was too rash to have a smaller size than that, although it was wrapped in red armor like the rest of the soldiers. Somewhere, it reminds me of a freshman year in elementary school who carried an overly large landscape. It must be as heavy as it looks, coming this way with a good foothold. Instead of stopping Sakuragiri, pressing "eh" is going to turn him upside down and make him unable to move.

By the way, it's a familiar face.

A female guard usually stands in front of the witch's room, but she also did the job several times. I don't even know the name, but I had an impression of a small body (perhaps fifty five centimeters a meter or so) and a child's face, a weak personality, compared to other female soldiers, which I remembered so quickly that I could tell at first glance.

"Sa, Master Saeri. It's dangerous here. Please run......!

to her who finally comes and says in front of her,

"I'm sorry. I... because I have something to do"

Without clouding, let me be frank.

"Uh... oh, no..."

Other soldiers would take a forceful hand at what they were talking about. This girl soldier was still confused.

Nevertheless, she's also at work. If something happens to a witch as a result of a foolish honest missed, she could be held accountable (even though that was something she could call against a soldier she'd shaken off earlier).

(... yes)

So, an idea flashes in Sakuragiri's brain.

"Uh... can I ask you something?

"Uh, yes! Oh, my God!

As the witch bowed her hips slightly and gazed at her, she stretched her pins and spine like nervous.

"What kind of witchcraft can you use?

"Yes! I... don't know how to fight directly on the front line... or not at all... Instead, we contribute with technologies such as communication, amplification, treatment and physical strengthening…!

Should it be what it looks like, I seem to specialize in backwards support.

"Strengthen your body..."

And Sakuragiri squeals the word.

"In your case, how long can physical strengthening last?

"Yes! It'll be about two minutes."

"Strengthen your body... two minutes..."

They say Digos is about four minutes in length, but this technique is supposed to last about a few dozen seconds. Pretty much anything in two minutes.

Come to think of it, there's no way a soldier's job could be done to just a girl who can't even walk in armor. Something like that that stands out and deserves it?

"... saeri. No way, you, let's fight with me, I don't know..."

"Huh? No, no, no! That's just what you don't think. No, no, I can't."

I shake my hands and neck to the side in a hurry.

Where I was able to gain the ability to be close to homeless in two minutes, I can't possibly stand up to that 'black ghost', though not very much. Even if the same level of strength as him lasted forever, absolutely not. No matter how 'powerful' you are, the bravery of drifting protection that you can bare your hands and go into without cowardice is honestly hard to put to the brush. What the hell kind of experience do you get, that much guts?

… and pull back thoughts that are about to deviate,

"Not me... it's Belle."

"Huh...?

"Physical strengthening is the art of revitalizing the soul and mind of the body, Prarna, right? Then I wonder if Belko's water sword will last longer or go in faster."

As for Sakuragiri, I have no idea how witchcraft works, etc., but I tried to sensibly say that I was going to be able to do that somehow.

"Mmm..."

Belgrette then shows a bare gesture of thinking with her fingers under her chin and turns back to the girl soldier.

"Well... now you can use amplification..."

"What? Yes"

"What's your duration and type of response…"

"Yes. The maximum time is about thirty seconds. Once… all types of amplification are possible"

It was the answer of a less confident girl soldier, but Belgrette, by contrast, was watching. Sakuragiri didn't know, but I guess the technology was adequate again.

"Belko. Could it be... if there's such a thing as amplification..."

Kokuri and the girl knight nod. Sakuragiri, who I guessed, also just tatami that time was a waste.

"Okay. I don't know... uh, now, what's your name?

"Yes! My name is Yuhimie!

"Bye, Yuhimie. Can you help me out for a second?

"Ha, yes!? What is it......!? What the hell did you do to me...? And this one? Do you know Saeri......?

"Yeah, I'll explain it in proper order."

To inspire yourself to calm down the grated Yuhimie. Sakuragiri made Ni smile.
