"... over the wall, is it?

"Oh, didn't you know? This is just the part where the lab is analyzing it."

The southern part of the empire is near the border with the Principality.

The two were in a coffee shop in the corner of a relatively small commercial city called Tonremi.

Nodding the cup back into the saucer is the blushing but impressive brown-haired girl - Benetta.

The strange look on its face, and in its serious eyes, was the person sitting face to face.

Just in the absence of guests, the two of them sat straight at the table when they placed a bunch of bills on the counter just for their convenience.

Sensing intent, besides being surprised by the coat that one person wore, the master was hastily pulling the sign into the back of the counter as CLOSE, not sneaking around untouched God.

"Um, Astarte. Does that sound like something I can ask you?"

"Hmm? There's very little information in this country that won't be disclosed to you… If you don't know it, why don't I (or someone else) tell you?" It's called "Blakes."

"Please"

The person who emitted a different colour - Astarte nodded one good thing.

I put my mouth on the cup to exhale.

A few moments after I broke up with Sten.

Astarte came this far, spewing a sigh of relief that she seemed not to be killed, leaving behind a profound word.

'Just a little bit, let's talk about it. What's Happening Now and What Begins'

There were several things that I was concerned about as a Benetta as well.

This is also true with regard to the "over the wall" he said earlier, and I know that the "what's going on" probably involves a third seat. Plus, about the seventh seat.

of the Imperial College, which serves as the backbone of the Empire, which is also a top-of-the-board problem called the Book Mausoleum Magic Commander. Predictions are unacceptable for future moves, and above all, matters are already happening.

If so, Benetta would also like to understand the situation and move it, and if it is moved without being informed, it will change on its own, so I just wanted to ask.

Most of all, the mystery of that demon ghost seems to be more and more involved in such a deep situation of the empire as it should be... I knew Astarte was turning considerable attention to him as well.

Even more so because it is enough to deliberately turn one of the Commanders of Demons into a crusade for one Demon.

"... crossing the wall is an event seen by several magical conductors. It is one of the few phenomena of divine erosion (Phase Skills) that can be used only by those selected."

"You can't use me, can you?"

"That's right. I am able to imitate all the phenomena of divine erosion, so I know which phenomena of divine erosion (phase skills) can reach beyond the walls. Not that it depends on Benetta's efforts, unfortunately [capital-one side of prison flame color] can't reach over the wall"

"... is that right?"

I don't know exactly what crossing the wall is in the first place, but I guess it doesn't translate into strengthening the phenomenon of divine erosion (phase skills) beyond "being able to arrive".

There was something to be pronounced in the wind that it could not be scratched.

It's synonymous with one possibility being crushed in my life, and above all, I regretted that I had a "colleague with strong powers that I couldn't use."

"Yes, don't let it get you down. Not everything gets stronger all at once."

"Overall?"

"Oh. I (Yamatsu) went over the wall, and the newly gained power was [Pure Naruto Righteousness - Nine Series Treasure Light Plays]. That one is definitely powerful. It is obviously more versatile because the phenomenon of divine erosion can be applied and mixed into the air to release it. But... lose the weapon instead. Even though you can't fathom a guy who breaks through it with a half-breed weapon."

"... I see. Sounds like a new option."

"That's what I'm talking about"

Astarte nods while satisfied with his excellent men who swallow quickly, but there is no way that Benetta noticed because she doesn't put that emotion on the table.

While clinging to the sea of thought, she inquired in such a way as roughly.

"What seems to be the difference between the phenomenon of divine erosion that can arrive and what is not..."

"I'm in the process of letting the Institute analyze that. But there are probably only three or four of them now."

"Anyone already made it?

"That's easy to understand. The only people in the Commander of Magic who clearly know how to fight are those who are able to cross the wall. Me, Renault, and..."

"- Third seat"

"That's the thing. And you said earlier," I didn't say it would all get stronger at once "?

"Uh, so the third seat is..."

"That's over the walls of the enhanced house."

I should only be able to use 70% of it. And Benetta only blinked her eyes at her as she clasped her shoulders.

If the current story of Astarte is true, it would be strange if the phenomenon of divine erosion (Phase Skills) could not be strengthened, as in Astarte.

"Um, isn't that just [harmony of heavenly dishes]?

"It was originally another divine erosion phenomenon (Phase Skill). Yatano's power, which reached the youngest of the" alien phases "responsible for the phenomenon of divine erosion, was a force whose shards were not suitable for combat."

"... sounds like it's the first time I've heard of it. The story."

"That's the information that hasn't been released to anyone. All I know is Renault and... and then maybe the second seat of my predecessor."

Yatano's Divine Erosion Phenomenon (Phase Skill) was originally something else.

The impact of that word is more than thoughtful. Whatever, one per person is the phenomenon of divine erosion. Therefore, it is one of common sense in the Book and Mausoleum that we must make the most of that benefit gained from alien phases.

- Maybe because of that common sense, it was kept secret.

"The phenomenon of divine erosion has evolved because it went over the wall, does it sound like it?"

"No. I can use two now. I don't know if Yatano remembers it."

"What do you mean?"

"If you're going to talk about it, Benetta,"

Astarte's eyes stain rainbow. At the same time, it increased sharpness.

Astarte continues, regardless of Benetta, who has stretched her spine with conditional reflexes.

"You'll have to be a little bit prepared."

"I'm ready to die for what I want to protect."

"It's not. … ready to rock your backbone too"

"To?"

Shake the root.

That's what they said, it wasn't much of a pin for Benetta.

Against her properly, Astarte suppressed her temples to patrol a little, but.

"What's your wish?

"A World Without a Mad Demon Tribe"

"It might break my heart to make you answer that instantly. Still want to hear it?

"... I'd rather break it right now if there's something that seems to break my creed."

"Yeah, right."

Bring it on, Benetta just makes her expression strong.

If so, I have no choice. Astarte believes in Benetta. Therefore, I went on.

"Benetta Cortina. No, you threw away your last name. Benetta."

"What? Huh? He didn't throw it away."

"Three years ago, Demon Wolf troops destroyed the village of their hometown of Ram, and unconditionally become resentful of the Demons. That's why he moved into an empire that takes an exclusive stance on the Devil Nation, and after the enumeration, he became the Ensign of the Imperial College, the Enchantress of the Mausoleum. The fierceness and the flame of burning and killing demons were trademarks, but the result of following the life of Talos V engaged the demon ghost Sten and seriously wounded. Thereafter, in therapy"

"Huh? Huh?

A line of unintelligible words. It certainly doesn't even look like Benetta's background at first glance, but it's clearly out of line.

Astarte raised her face to reveal her confusion.

"This is what it's all about."

"Suzi... Kaki?

"But now you're Benetta Cortina. I have a last name, and above all, I'm in the empire trying to save the Demons. The difference is that the" thread of destiny "was messed up or screwed up."

"Sorry, I don't seem to be able to see the story..."

"Simply put, history is changing"

"... it sounds like you didn't know that."

"Yes."

I didn't know what the thread of fate was.

Still, Benetta could understand Astarte's words even if she was told that history was changing. Astarte said earlier that the muscles that should have been traced, and what I have now are the effects of historical alterations.

"The history that has so far been correctly and honestly carried has switched to that of another world at a moment past one axis. That is evident from the obvious signs of historical alteration. … Your determination is merely the result of your" salvation ". Your father and village had been robbed, and you were avenging all the demons."

――

"... Benetta"

At least we needed to talk about Benetta's current situation in explaining the circumstances.

I didn't intend to give this information to Benetta. It was Benetta's words on the border with the Principality that made him do so. Spirituality that did not bend itself, even though it confronted Astarte.

Even if you're not strong, the expectation is that you'll grow more than you can imagine as a magical conductor.

I glanced over at her, and Astarte shut up.

What does she think in her brain? Until you point that at yourself, wait.

"... Astarte sama"

"What?"

"I knew it. I don't know, but he doesn't seem like such a noble person."

Benetta's expression is the same as it was earlier. To the extent that my eyebrow root is slightly down, my voice hasn't changed. Clearly upset, however, was not something that could be hidden from the Astarte opponent.

Therefore, I regret a little that I shouldn't have told you.

"... but"

Astarte moved her eyebrows tingly. Because Benetta's expression slowly changed into a form of smile.

"Even after that, I can now live properly forward. I don't know how you were, but I want to thank you for being strong."

――

"With your father, with your brother. Astarte, who protected the village, is there. It wasn't an illusion, but I was able to stand up and be strong. So I know how important my heart is."

Put your hands gently on your chest, and Benetta laughs. From the bottom of my heart, serene.

"If I can, I can save the world."

"... well. That's enough if you listen."

"Sounds like it wasn't enough to break."

"Hmm, I was watching my Imperial subjects sweetly"

"Heh."

After a decent Benetta, Astarte continued intact.

"Teng himself, who changed history, is that demon ghost. Perhaps few people are aware of that fact. This is how you twist and bend the facts without letting anyone recognize you. If you still have that power, it's still a threat."

"... but not all the bad things -"

"That leads me to the reason I went out of my way to tell Benetta this story"

"What does that... mean"

It was certainly a story without context. If there's a Benetta now because of the historical alteration, I'd rather be thankful for that sten, but apparently the situation isn't that easy.

Astarte, put the empty cup down.

"- The seventh seat was a man named Frevadir Croix"

"Oh, that was before the alteration. So now Renault R. Atelidia, after all."

"That's why I'm letting you swim. Yatano's phenomenon of divine erosion remains the same as it was before the alteration, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that it is the seventh seat that is causing more mental anomalies than the twilight."

"... impact, sounds huge. Sten...... I don't know, this complicated emotion"

"I will not give you orders to kill the demon Sten."

Astarte with white eyes on Benetta scratching her cheeks.

The conversation is over, and Benetta calls him to a halt.

"Oh, that."

"What's up?

"With regard to the third seat, does it look like things are going well ahead?"

"Uncover the organization to which Renault belongs. Until then, leave it alone."

"No, the third seat is pretty awkward."

"It's unpleasant."

Blocking Benetta's words she tried to go on, Astarte frowned and covered her voice in a really grumpy way.

"- It won't matter more than that demon ghost Sten is involved in. I (Taken) could not be killed twice, and won the war between vampires and Imperial College at the mercy of fishermen, minimizing the damage to the Republic. I watched sweetly as" the shadowchaser of the gods, "but that was already the gods themselves. - Maybe past alterations are only one end of the way, and he also has the power to put it on something and force things to work out."

"Ah, ha..."

It must be an imperial threat, so we'll settle for it.

And finally, Astarte goes to the store's exit.

Benetta goes outside to chase after him, too, and then gently meets the master.

"It sounds like a whole different story."

It was already dark outside.

The voice on the back of the leading I is much lighter than when we first met today.

"... is the second seat of the previous generation alive?

"... why, I think so"

"Only Renault and the second predecessor will know the circumstances of the third seat.... but the third seat was the youngest and arrived at the phenomenon of divine erosion about a hundred years ago, and then everyone who knew about the third seat died."

"... ha. It's a good guess."

Boulders are my subjects. Astarte nodded as he gave me a rating that resembled a grudge in his heart.

"There was a lot of it, but yes. I'm sure there's nothing more involved."

"Really? Eisenhardt K. Fangini... I've hardly ever met him. Is that his mouth that was originally a different phenomenon of divine erosion (phase skills) or something?

That's all Benetta knows about Eisenhardt's phenomenon of divine erosion.

That's what I asked, guessing from the story that the strong people who crossed the line of the Imperial College were crossing the walls.

I was wondering if it was over an evolved type of wall, the same as Yatano.

And, Astarte turned to Benetta.

I shook my head like I was frightened.

"It's a horrible story. That's because we haven't crossed the wall yet."
