◆ Ruby/Gawain ◆

"Ha... ha... ha...!

Gashan, Gashan, Gashan, Gashan.

I hear the sound of Gawain's armor.

But that, too, is some better than my rough breath.

"Are you running away from me?" Ha-ha-ha! "

I looked back as I ran.

From across the corner, a bright blue flame is peeking at my neck.

If you get wrapped up in an array, it's over.

But no matter how much I run, he comes after me perfectly like a shadow......!

The sidewalk caught my eye.

I judge profoundly.

"Over here!

"Huh!?

I pulled Gawayne's arm and jumped into that sidewalk.

At the same time, the entrance of the sidewalk is blocked by the membrane of the boundary - the wall of the phantom.

From this side we can see the hallway clearly, but from the other side we shouldn't see this sidewalk.

We lurked our breath.

Breathing, heartbeat, slight rubbing of clothes.

I usually don't even care about the sound, but I do.

Eventually, I heard footsteps.

That's him.

That's the woman.

We held our breath naturally….

Before the sidewalk concealed by a phantom of mass, the guy - Beryl Eitkin - showed up.

She was a beautiful woman.

Chicken clothes full of primary colors.

The ears glow with piercings and the claws of both hands are colorfully teetered.

That was fundamentally different from the way the noble daughter would dress.

As much as I thought it was some tribe.

We're running away from such a joke.

That and this, because of that blue flame.

Firepower out of common sense.

[Dawn Light] I've fought many times in rank battles with use, but I've never had such ridiculous firepower.

How can you fight a guy who even melts iron easily?

Keep going......!

I look at a gorgeous woman walking in front of me, and I think so.

Beryl Eitkin was looking forward.

It doesn't give me a glimpse on the side road hidden right next to me.

... I haven't noticed.

I can...!

The moment I thought so.

Kuru.

and.

Two eyes saw us.

"I missed it."

Why......

How do you know......!?

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

"Damn......! Damn! Why, damn...!!

Gashan, Gashan, Gashan, Gashan.

We were running again.

To get away from that creepy woman.

"How do you know, that guy! Shake it off, hide it, even see through my spiritual art, how...!!

"Some kind of spirituality......!?

"You can't be! Then what is that flame!?

Spirituality is one per person.

This is an absolute rule.

Rachel, there are some exceptions to this, but that's just because I have one "Spiritual Art to Mimic Spirituality".

I can't possibly detect us with another spiritual technique while using [Dawn Light].

Anyway, I'll take a distance. There was nothing else.

I'm not afraid of that blue flame, even if they know where I am, as long as I can't keep up.

Nothing. We don't have to take that woman down.

I wish I could even move on.

Beryl showed up first, in a room with a big hole - if only we could get to the door that lies ahead.

"... ah"

So I figured it out.

I came up with it.

Sprinkle the beryl and find a way to move on.

I saw Gawayne running next door.

Gawayne looks back at me in surprise.

"What's up?

"No..."

I turned away.

... What do you need to hesitate about?

There's no reason to get lost.

At least, if it was me before - before I went to college, it's my choice for instant judgment.

I immediately swallowed the hesitation that arose for a moment.

That's when I just plugged into the crossroads.

I scream out loud without hesitation.

"That way! Turn right!

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

◆ Gawain ◆

"That way! Turn right!

"Ok......!

Ruby Bergson was instructed to do more than a few things, but this is not a situation where the instruction system can be taken away from him now.

I turned right at the crossroads, as I was told.

But.

Bergson didn't bend.

I went straight ahead.

"Bergson......!?

I'm surprised, I stop and look back.

There was no one there anymore.

Bergson had disappeared completely.

"... oh"

I immediately guessed.

They left me.

He's going to make me run away.

... right.

Oh, I see.

You had that hand.

What I did was unconscious.

I never thought of such a simple and effective hand.

"Oh hey?

Standing up, that gorgeous woman - Beryl Eitkin - caught up.

"No one? I left him. Kawaiso."

Beryl Eitkin laughs at it.

It's ridiculed.

I felt that way.

"... role sharing."

Even though I didn't have to, I was reflexively saying it back.

"I'm right, I lack mobility with heavy equipment. Then it would be a wise choice to receive it."

"Right! Sure ~. Yeah, I know."

I was exasperated by Beryl Eitkin's reaction, which I could see was only the shape.

... Calm down.

Just like I said myself.

This is the right choice.

Besides, we're not close enough to trust each other more than we used to.

It would rather be classified as unfriendly.

Betrayal or nothing, was it from the beginning?

- I knew it with my head.

On reason I understood.

But - why not?

When I analyzed my mood objectively, I was angry.

I'm angry.

Why.

"Uh-huh. Oh, I came up with something good."

In front of me laying my sword and shield, Beryl Eitkin pounded his hand as if defenselessly.

"Hey, deal's up."

"... you say it's a deal?

"Tell me which way you went. Then you'll miss it."

I stopped breathing.

Take care of it immediately so that it is not understood.

"What a fool."

"I think it's easier to deal with that little girl than you. Aaron said he'd let you go first!

Blatantly, irresponsibly, Beryl Eitkin said away.

This woman...... I mean it.

Seriously, I'm trying to throw my part out.

"We're moving on. What do you say? I think it's a wise choice to ride this deal."

"Don't flatter me. It's the same thing when I buy time here. Bergson moves on."

"Ah, that's it. You can't! Actually!"

"What?"

Oh, and.

Beryl Eitkin laughed abusively.

"I guess I should teach you something special! Ji, tsu, ha."

That's it.

The gorgeous woman told her to reveal her secret.

I'm stunned.

If that's the truth...

Even if I buy time here, Bergson can't get there first.

"See, you got it? He said there's no other way to move on than by riding our deal here.

And a bargain! All you have to do is tell me where the flirtatious woman who betrayed you and left you is! I don't think this is such a good deal. "

I don't...

Think.

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

◆ Ruby ◆

I don't know the karaki of Beryl's sensing abilities.

But there's only one body.

Even if you knew where I was, you wouldn't be able to come after me while I was hanging on Gawain.

It's not a rank fight, you idiot. You don't have to defeat it honestly.

This is my best hand......

I even came back to the room with the stone bridge over the big hole.

Beryl's guy was ambushing here.

It means I don't want you to go any further.

There is a door at the end of crossing the stone bridge.

Probably over there, there's an exit through this dungeon!

I ran through the stone bridge and jumped at the door.

It's not locked.

I pull open at once.

The hallway was stretched.

It's dim and I don't see it well ahead.

Matsuaki... was Gawayne holding it?

I had no choice but to walk down the dim hallway with my hands on the wall.

Eventually, I went out to my room.

It's not that wide.

Is the ceiling a bit higher than the college classroom?

As I walked into the middle, I saw the wall on the other side.

Shake your gaze to the right.

... walls.

Shake your gaze to the left.

... walls.

There are only walls.

I didn't see any doors or paths leading up.

... it was the main road until we got here, wasn't it?

In the meantime, why don't you go back?

It was dim, and maybe I overlooked the sidewalk.

So I returned the blemishes, and tried to leave the room.

"- That's it!"

Gotun! and something hits my forehead and falls in.

What the fuck?

Wall!?

Stand up and reach out.

There was a wall.

A clear wall was blocking the entrance.

... Yep.

Could it be me...

Trapped?

Shortly after I realized the facts...

Beyond the transparent wall, a figure appeared.

"Caught. Caught. Caught."

Beryl laughs at me and looks at me over the wall.

My spine was kneaded.

Beryl's eyes, like those of a caged animal, crippled her.

"Shh! What the hell, this!!

"Heh, heh, heh! Did you think that? Because we came out of here, there's an exit ahead of us. Is that what you thought? I think so ~! I think so too! Mr. Aaron is super mean."

... trap, was it?

I let him come out of here to lure him into a trap...

"So here you are in shedding ~ su "

Gacon, there was a sound.

When I looked up, there was a hole in the ceiling.

Immediately after.

The water came running down like a waterfall.

My feet are soaked in water.

Covering up the floor doesn't stop the running water.

A war broke out.

Anyone can tell.

What will happen to this room after a while?

Water doesn't stop.

Until I fill this room.

My breath, until it stops.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. I'll tell you one thing."

I looked up.

Reflectively, unconsciously.

I'm...

To Beryl's words, he was looking for salvation.

"That other one... did I mention you, Gawayne? That Co, I threw up where you were and went first. So it's better not to expect help."

… ha.

I see.

That's right.

I'm the one who betrayed you first.

You know what?

It doesn't matter.

I'll do it alone.

That's what I decided.

"- Ahhhhhhhh!!!!

I yelled and hit the clear wall.

But the walls just tremble.

There are no signs of breaking.

My ankle sank in the water.

"Well, call me if you drown. If you run out of spirit, you'll be collecting it."

On a light note, Beryl disappears across the hallway.

The only thing left in my ear was the sound of massive amounts of water pouring down.

The water level rises.

I held the hat on my head.

The cold sensation covers my whole body......
