Lesson 100: The Future of Death

An hour later. Five of the seven star angels Seal, Kiel, Micah, Raphae, and Yeg assembled in the meeting room in the castle.

"Mika, are you okay if you're feeling better?

"... I'm fine now. Sorry I bothered you."

"Never mind. How about Rafael? I heard that the human man passed me out."

"I'm fine, too. Sorry, I'm just impudent..."

"There's no need to apologize. I'm also responsible for the misperceived strength of that man."

Then Seal looked around the room all the way.

"Hasn't Gabri come yet? Not at all..."

"Seal than that. Let me ask you why you brought us here."

In response to Kiel's words, Seal breathed small.

"Right. It's silly to wait forever for Gabriel to come, and suppose it's time to talk"

Tension runs into the indoor air. Eventually Seal opened his mouth.

"Earlier, Washi's [Future Prediction] was activated, and I saw a future in which the King and his four men would attack this" Light Castle of the Seven Stars ""

Everyone here was stunned by Seal's remarks.

"The King of Champions is in this castle...!? There should be no other means of coming and going between the earth and the 'sanctuary of the sky' than to use the gate...!?"

Raphae says in a trembling voice.

"The information on that gate must have leaked to the king."

"Oh no, why...!?"

"I don't even know. But this prediction was seen on the arrow tip that allowed that human man to escape... Now that I think about it, maybe the man had some connection to the king. Then I'm convinced of that strength."

I couldn't imagine Seal, such as that Ute was the king himself.

"It's Seal. What the hell is that guy you've been talking about?

Kiel, who doesn't know the circumstances, asks Seal.

"I'm not talking about the human man that the eagle brought to the castle to add to the seven-star angel. They got away with it. He must have said his name was Euth or something."

Kiel rounding his eyes. Of the five people on this occasion, only Kiel knew who Euto was.

"... I see. Did that happen while I was on the ground?"

But Kiel didn't say anything about it, just a small chuckle.

"Whatever it is, this future was caused by my impotence. I'm so sorry."

Seal bowed his head deeply toward everyone.

"Se, Mr. Seal is nothing wrong! If only I were firmer...!!"

"It's not like we're taking responsibility for each other now, is it? Isn't it a prerequisite to figure out how to deal with the upcoming King of Champions?

"... Yeg's right"

Seal lifts his head and changes his mind.

"The future I saw wasn't that far away. Probably tomorrow, but the king will bring four men with him."

"That's troublesome. You haven't gathered half the human soul you need to unseal the Phantom Beast Gate yet, have you? You'll never make it."

"Oh. The King's plan is to use the Revived Phantom Beast to defeat him, but we'll have to intercept him in Washi et al."

Said Seal with a strong determined eye.

"Can we win with the king...!?"

"I can win. I just want to assure you, the power of the king is far beyond the imagination of the eagles. You don't know what's going to happen until you fight."

"... if you're really going to attack me tomorrow, you can't relax."

"Oh. So quickly get everyone ready for interception. Hanging on to the pride of the Seven Stars Angel, this battle must be won. Everybody ready?

Three people nod at Seal's words: Kiel, Micah and Yeg.

"How about Raphae?

"... Yes"

A little late, Rafael nodded powerlessly as well.

"Then tell him the operation better than this. I don't have time for this, so I want you to acknowledge in advance that this will be a rushed operation."

Seal informed everyone of the operation and announced its dissolution. Three people, Micah, Raphae and Yeg, leave the meeting room. But only Kiel didn't try to move off the spot.

"What's up, Kiel? You get to your place, too."

Seal and Kiel left in the room. Kiel turns a serious eye to Seal.

"Before I do, I need to ask you something."

"What?

"The vision you saw in [Future Prediction] is the future, that's all, of King Huang bringing four of his men to attack the castle?

To Kiel's inquiry, Seal shook Pickle's shoulder.

"When you spoke to me, I felt something impatient from your voice. So much so that I have to decide to leave the battlefield. If that's all you saw in the future, you wouldn't have."

"... what are you trying to say?

"Didn't you see anything else? Something unusual about the future."

…………

Seal and Kiel looking into each other's eyes silently.

"... childhood familiarity is a pain in the ass. I didn't know you could hide anything."

Eventually Seal said in a sigh.

"That's not the only future I've ever seen."

"Oh. If I can promise everyone else I'll keep it a secret, I'll only tell you."

"... ok. Promise me in the name of the warrior."

After a brief silence, Seal quietly opened his mouth.

"In my battle with the King of Champions, I saw a future of multiple dead from among the Washi and other seven-star angels"

Kiel looks out for Seal's remarks.

"How many? Who dies?

"I can't say that much. But let's just say it wasn't you."

That said, Seal turns his back on Kiel.

"It's Kiel. Remember what I told you on human soil?

…………

- If anything happened to me... I asked for the rest, Kiel.

Seal's words then come back to life in Kiel's head.

"Whatever, I remember"

"... would be nice"

Leaving behind a meaningful dialogue, Seal left the scene.
