I've lived all my life chasing Henriette, Otilier, but not without any pride as a soldier.

It is not soldiers who work hard to train from day to day that are used in the war, but Kimaira, created by Echidna.

It sounds good to hear that there will be no human damage, that the cost is minimal, but the morale of the army is down.

"I can't believe we're going to entrust the destiny of the kingdom to such a monster..."

Otilier snaps.

A flock of Kimyra lined up in front of the Royal Castle Square.

The people watched the scene far-flung.

"The inhabitants of the king's capital seem to share the same sentiments as Otilier."

said Henriette standing next door.

The expression on the wild horses is disturbing somewhere.

The escape of the brave men caused a great deal of confusion in the King's capital.

Until now it has been an unconditional and trusted satooki, but it also seems that more people have begun to be skeptical of him.

At the same time, his doubts about the existence of Kimaira have swelled.

As hitchhiking to it, Welsey, who has not yet been captured, began to sprinkle more newspapers.

Previously ignored, more and more people seem to be taking it in their hands these days.

But recent moves are too flashy for personal activity.

Rumors are also circulating that Leach, my brother, might be helping, but I'm not sure if it's true.

If Satooki cares about it, it will be easy to reveal the truth.

But he can't afford that right now.

"From anyone's eyes, it's obvious you're in a hurry. No matter how much Satooki you are, you can't delude me."

The launch was ahead of schedule.

It was only five days before the Flams escaped from the king's capital.

The development of a portable, large-scale control device was itself complete, but mass production was not made in time, and there are only two things that would be useful in the current situation.

By installing a number of them, it was supposed to be an insurance policy when the device was destroyed - but Satooki couldn't wait until then.

I guess you want a handle.

Big enough for the people to forget their suspicions before they get cornered.

"As for the side to be attached, give me a break."

Blur and foolish Henriette.

Otilier looked at her more surprised.

"It's unusual for your sister to say that."

"The idea that humans should rule the continent remains unchanged. But... is it entirely Satooki's personal problem to go forward? Indeed, if we deploy more than a thousand Kimyra electrically, the victory seems certain. But there's no way I'm taking any countermeasures with the Demons. Even more so if the heroes are there."

To Henriette herself, I can't imagine how to fill this much difference in power.

But just in case...

"Even if they had a hand in reversal, about destroying the controls. And they're not supposed to know it exists. Besides, if you notice, it's almost impossible to break through the army of Kimaira filling the ground and the air. Even if it were miraculously pulled out, we'd have to deal with Kimyra's troops, who were placed as escorts for the controls."

Only a small part of the people who go out protect the controls.

From the army Henriette, Otilier, Herman and Werner.

And Hugue and Bart from the Knights of the Church.

A total of six, all the other roles are left to Kimaira, he said.

In fact, where soldiers other than them have come out on the battlefield, they'll just be a bunch of feet.

Not so long ago, the presence of Chimaira was absolute.

But while I understand the power of it, Henriette can't be trusted.

"Otilier, do you know about a girl named Ink?

"I hear you're a former Childrens girl who was working with the Flams."

"By implanting the Origin Core as a substitute for the heart, Childrens gained the power of the Origin - but somehow she became just a human being"

"Sure, you think you transplanted a third party heart? You're going to do something lame."

"Not at all," laughs Henriette.

And I went on to talk further.

"Even when Mother encircled the king's capital, Flam used the power of" inversion ”to fly through the sky and burst himself into a place with an origin-core to destroy it"

"Sister, what's wrong with that?

A slightly irritating Otilier.

He didn't care that your sister talked about another woman.

Henriette laughed bitterly when she realized it.

"I'm not talking about what Flam Apricot is about. Just look at the way it's done... this time too, they don't feel like they're using absurd, unscrupulous means"

"So your sister thinks the advance could be a deadly gap."

"Oh. I hope nothing happens - no matter what you think, those guys are in the enemy, right? There's no way anything's gonna happen."

Henriette was sure.

She doesn't have the authority to delay the launch right now.

Satooki sought to bring the kingdom back from the Origin into the hands of man by concentrating every power on himself.

She aligned herself with the idea and helped.

Then it is logical to follow the measures he has devised.

But - can I fulfill the kingdom of today and call it human?

Look at the chimairas lining up in front of you, she thinks about that.

When the preparation (...) is complete, the luggage truck with the transfer device and the three Otiliers, Werner and Burt aboard it, plus a few chimairas deployed for their escort, gather in one place.

And the wizards who belonged to the army surrounded them.

I don't see Gene, apparently he still hasn't stepped out of the room.

But without his help - we can activate metastatic magic (...).

"Asport"

At the same time, declaring a magical activation, the Otiliers were wrapped in a translucent blue dome - pashhh, and when it contracted rapidly, the objects present in it disappeared with a beautiful sapphire.

◇ ◇ ◇

At the next moment, Otilier's luggage was being flown in the middle of a wilderness where no grass had grown either.

Not only does she, Werner and Bart, often look out in relief.

"... really, you metastasized"

"In fact, when I experience it like this, I can only be surprised how much it tastes."

Transfer magic is finally no longer the exclusive prerogative of the brave.

If this technology developed more, people's lives would be much more convenient than they are now, and the hegemony of the kingdom would be unshakeable.

"Is this the Devil's Land? As you can imagine, it's a desolate land."

A grey earth, with just a poppy and dead tree growing.

Right next to the luggage truck was embedded with the transfer stones that Cyril and the others had installed during their journey.

This is the end of their journey.

I was able to shorten my journey considerably to Seleid, my destination, but from here on out, I have to travel on my own feet.

It would take two days, even if Kimaira were to pull her luggage, to reach the place indicated at the prior meeting.

"I mean, why am I with you? I can't stand this kind of space."

"When Henriette and Otilier are on the set, they don't know what's going to happen. I think it's the right thing to do."

"That recognition is wrong, isn't it? If I had a sister, I could work a hundred times harder."

I guess that means we don't have to work hard.

To Bart's theory, O'Tillier only faces.

In fact, I leave most of the battle to Kimyra.

Their role is only to control Kimyra's movements while protecting the device.

"Or you...... was it Bart, the new deputy captain?

"It's Bart Caron."

"I don't care about your full name or anything. You don't look better than usual, do you?

My stomach always looks painful and my complexion is bad - that was Otilier's hold, his image of Burt.

Apparently Werner was aware of it similarly, and agrees, "Whoa, I thought that too".

Then, having received their gaze, he turned away and said in a small voice.

"Because the captain is not here."

Yes, there's no such thing as that crazy Hugue Panyan here.

That's all, how much Bert's heart rests.

Jack, the former deputy captain, was killed after he “pleaded not guilty” to it.

During the battle with the heroes, I also heard stories of killing ordinary people without any sins.

Anyway, he was, Bart's - no, beyond the comprehension of all Knights.

"... Oh, that's what happened"

That's so miserable that even Otilier sympathizes.

Bart always wonders how much of a pull-out strength he has, but whether it's a disgrace to the Knights of the Church that the "one like that” holds the position of Knights.

When Hugue had just become the Knights Commander, he was still a mattomo, just a man of strong justice - but he probably couldn't “stand it” anymore.

He is inherently a man who cannot contain his own desires.

That's why he repeated repeated several women's assaults and didn't even reflect until he met his chastity belt, he said.

But using tools to force correction doesn't change the roots.

The desire to destroy others, their desires, matured under restraints for years and continued to grow.

As a result, having crossed the limits of his patience in the battle, he reached out to the ordinary people - if he returned to the King's Capital, he would be disposed of, and undoubtedly the appointment of the Knights Commander would be dismissed.

"But it's also true that you can count on me, eh, I heard you fought each other with that Gadio Lascat?

"I'm worried about your sister being with a guy like that."

"You're always like that."

The Hugues on the subject plan to act with Henriette, Herman.

Each of the two controls is installed away from each other, manipulating the Chimailas attacking Seleid.

I mean, Otilier can't even see Henriette's face until the battle is over.

That's a lot of stress for her (who thinks) that makes sense.

It was Satooki's decision that it would be better to separate the two of them than to act together and be run wild.

"You have to finish the fight quickly to get a moving reunion."

"Chip, I'm not listening. Well, no, because the purpose is the same. We have to finish this tedious battle and get back to the king's capital."

Just the task of manipulating and attacking Kimyra, not your own power.

That, apart from Burt wanting to stay away from Hugue, was a very boring one.

Later, Henriettes' luggage cars are transferred, and Kimyra and the others are sent in.

In no time, the surroundings were filled with tuna hagi's carbide.

Otiliers who were free until the transfer ended and the march began,

"Can you hear me, Otilier?"

The moment she heard her sister's voice, she clung to the cloth bag as she jumped, wandering through the contents and retrieving the palm-sized crystal.

If it is possible to manipulate Kimyra remotely, it is also possible to communicate the voice remotely - a communication device made by such an echidna idea.

There is limited scope for conversation, but enough for the two forces to keep in touch.

"Ha, ha, I hear you, sister. Ah! Oh, I wonder how comforting your sister's voice is, even if she's far away!

'Right. I'm glad you've been able to transfer safely. The transfer of all Kimyra will be completed soon, and when it's over, we'll finally march on, don't get distracted.'

"I know, for the bright future of me and your sister!

On the verge of losing touch, it wouldn't be my fault that I heard Henriette laugh.

I'm not sure if it was a bitter laugh or a smile.

"That was a fruitless conversation."

"Your sister just checked to see if the communication device works properly. It's not a big problem."

"So I wonder if it would be good to use it for personal use."

"Then you can tell your sister and call Hugh, okay?

"Leave me out of this."

Burt's face blues at once.

Otilier, who saw it, laughed Kerakera.

Inside, however, he seems surprised by the convenience of this communication device.

Echidna said it was with the control device (...), but it's outrageous.

Rather, this is the main one.

How could this be a more revolutionary invention than such a monster as Kimyra?

In terms of cost, he said mass production was difficult at present.

"What a waste, isn't it?"

"O'Tillier's head?

"Thoughts about your sister are not a waste of brain resources, etc. I mean Echidna, if I had worked as a decent researcher, I would have been praised as a greater human being."

"That's impossible."

"Why?

Otilier listening back.

Werner laughed happily for some reason.

"What that woman wants is“ power. "If it weren't for the Origin Core, we wouldn't have achieved as much as we do now."

"... Speaking of which, you did"

The premise of a "proper researcher” was wrong.

Echidna became a researcher because she was not at all.

In order for a person to have better knowledge or stronger power than others - somewhere in his head, he must be broken.

◇ ◇ ◇

When Kimyra was aligned and the operational testing of the controls was completed, the Royal Army began marching.

The lion-shaped luggage car runs through the wilderness several times faster than a regular carriage.

Over a thousand Kimyras surround it.

As the alien creatures moved forward in alignment, it was different from the Otilier and Henriette at its center.

Whenever those legs step on the ground, the ground rings.

I'd be comfortable on my side, but imagine when this flock turns to its enemies - I'm unintentionally shivering.

"Are you freaking out?

"Yeah, don't you think Werner would be horrible to see this Kimyra?

"That way. Yeah, I guess not. I know it's nice."

"I can't let you in."

"I'm rather surprised you thought you could empathize with me in Otilier."

The conversation did not last long and was quickly interrupted.

The luggage car rocks violently, and you're drunk, Burt's complexion gets all pale.

But - I can't see the Demon Clan as I move on.

The military has been on alert since the moment of the transfer, but how come they haven't even ambushed us?

But even if you were lurking, you wouldn't be able to escape Kimyra's detection.

"It's so quiet by the time it's creepy."

A few hours after departure, while silence continues, Otilier opens his mouth.

"Didn't you give up?

Your sister said you couldn't have set anything up.

"Sister Ma... I agree with you on that. I was going to set you up in a cage fight."

The demonic settlements I discovered on the road, so far, are all mushrooms.

Probably had Seleid evacuated him beforehand.

"Before the magic of Kimyra, the battle of Cage Castle is a stupid choice."

As for the lion type and the flying dragon type, because of its giant, I'm not very good at one-on-one melee combat.

Nevertheless, it's not so bad - it's not even a battle if you're a coarse opponent with high agility that doesn't match that body and enough muscle to fall apart if you're a human being just plundered.

But it's a magical meeting away from home that will show off the main force.

No matter how many walls and barriers you cage on top of each other, you won't be able to stand for that long if the intensive fire by hundreds of Kimyra surrounding Seleid is your opponent.

"But the longer it takes, the worse Satooki's position becomes"

"That's an achievement that's not worth risking your life for. I would look for another way."

"What kind?

"That's... I haven't thought of it"

In short, it is the recipient and seller of Henriette.

The Flams must be using a hand they can't imagine.

Next to the two people who speak plainly, Burt lays down and looks bright blue.

Some people get drunk in the carriage, but before he left, he was supposed to say, "I'm sure he's fine."

It would have meant that the swing of the luggage car pulled by Kimyra was more than I could have imagined.

"Burt, are you sure you're okay? When it comes to protecting you, I heard you were better than anyone else, so you biased your sister's power?

"Problem… no…"

In the Wang capital, Cyril put me through lightly, but there's nothing to go out to Burt's right when it comes to protecting certain places, certain people.

Perhaps even Cyril using Brave will take some time to break through that barrier.

Instead, he doesn't have the means to attack as much as you can say at all.

Exactly the opposite of Hugue, he was a user of Justice Enforcement (Justine Arts) specializing in protection everywhere.

"Ma, it's best not to rely on Bert's help to end it."

That said, Werner moves his gaze out the window.

The flowing landscape was gradually changing from wilderness to snowfield.

◇ ◇ ◇

What was the war for?

says the ruler.

"To make the kingdom's hegemony more unshakeable. And to clear up my father's carelessness'

The tender girl thinks.

'Such a battle is pointless. We need to cease the ceasefire as soon as possible and proceed with the investigation of Origin's seal.'

It's not like someone is right.

It's not like anyone is wrong either.

Each convenience and thought is pressed together, and the battle occurs because it is incompatible.

Then why?

Why does she (...) repeat - acts like taking sides with the Demons and the Braves?

"I haven't changed since the beginning."

To stop the war.

To triumph over the Demons.

To stop Origin from resurrecting.

To bring peace to the King's capital.

All “no," she shook her head.

And this is what I would argue.

"I'm done."

He's in tune, too.

"Here we go."

He and she want to say that the pieces are all set.

All you have to do is have a happy ending.

help to do so (...), she executes.

◇ ◇ ◇

Two days later, the Otiliers arrived at their scheduled position.

Remove the control device from the luggage vehicle and install it on the ground.

To this point, there is zero raid by the Demons.

While anxious about the journey too well, place Kimyra as planned and wait for instructions from Henriette.

Then a few minutes late, her voice echoes from the communication device.

"You've made me wait, and this placement is complete."

"Bye."

Otilier's fingertips touch the lens less than a meter in diameter.

Countless lights are dazzling on the surface - every single point of it indicates the chimaira present around.

And Henriette likewise reached for the crystal.

"Oh, it's a war."

When trace amounts of magic are sensed from your fingertips, all points change from white light to red.

Then Kimyra and the others began to advance towards Seleid simultaneously, from the ground and the air.

On a rocking earth, a gushing wind.

O'Tillier and Werner looking up at it, and Burt.

"Is this the end of their role?

We can't stay alert yet.

"That said, I guess nothing can be done in this situation"

Completely besieged Sereid.

Apparently, you've magically built a wall, but it won't last a few minutes to that extent.

"It's not too bad..."

Werner called it smudging.

Then at that time, a voice was heard from a communication device held by Otilier.

"Kiko... Za... Za... Suka..."

Too much noise to listen to.

But until just now, we should have been able to have a normal conversation with the Otiliers.

Even with the murmur mixed with it, Otilier can tell, that voice is not Henriette's.

"Otilier, did you hear anything now?

"Yeah, still for your sister, too?

"Still there too...... has the Demons set something up"

Apparently, a similar sound had arrived over there.

Shortly afterwards, the communication device picks up the mysterious voice again.

"Hear... Shigeru, Henri... Zazah... Sama..."

Now it's clearer than earlier.

Little by little, maybe it's getting closer to this one.

"Looks like they're calling your sister"

"That was a man's voice, wasn't it a message from Wang Du?

We can't abandon the possibility of a demonic trap yet, but for one thing Henriette tries to respond.

"This is Henriette, what's up?

"Oh, good......"

The man in communication leaks a soothing exhale.

In that voice, apparently she realized who the other person was.

"Is that Roddy?

'Yes, yes... Shh. Henriette… I have a report…………………………………'

What the hell is the report you have to convey until you purposefully send a soldier out to the demonic realm?

If it's not so important, it shouldn't be this far.

Werner and Bart, as well as Hellman standing beside Henriette, are also focused on the story with a serious look.

Hugue is staring at his own sword with a lucid look on his face, but he hasn't heard it, apparently.

"Sa... Kisa... Za... So, Ha... The... Ya!

'I'm sorry, Roddy, there's too much noise to hear. Again, can I ask you to slow down?

'A little... please. Here... I am, so the place... I will!

Interrupted audio.

The noise appears to vary depending on the position, and Roddy is apparently moving to a place where communication is easy.

And a few minutes later, I can hear Roddy again.

"Dear Henriette, can you hear me?

The sound is clear next time, and there's almost no murmur.

"Oh, I hear you."

'Good, looks like you'll be fine here. I will now report to you.'

When I hear it this way, Roddy's voice is shaking.

At least, they're not a good report.

Henriette's expression intensifies.

Similarly, nervousness ran on the Otiliers listening to the conversation.

'Well, I honestly don't know what's going on either, but just to be brief -'

I guess he also understands that his voice is hard to hear.

Hence the slow pronunciation, and yet with a loud voice, I say it clearly.

"Master Satooki is dead."

The brutal proclamation sounds.

Full of silence, as time had stopped, everyone who was on the spot stopped.

Forget even breathing, but only the heart is pulsing loudly.

Beyond the communication device held by Otilier, a noise called Gassa was heard.

Perhaps the crystal Henriette had fell to the ground.

That's - that's something no one could have imagined.

"... what do you mean?

Power also fell out of Otilier's body, and she knelt on the ground.

Satooki executed the queens, princes and ministers one after the other in order to concentrate his power on himself.

And created a situation where the kingdom could not operate without him.

If it were to die - the kingdom, no longer.

With perplexity and disappointment spreading, the Chimairas, nevertheless, continued to march towards Seleid.
