"I found it, Louie!

Toad emerged from the bushes.

I haven't lost a long time since I ran.

He is the best scout in the sword of valor.

"Was it still hidden by illusion?

"Ah, there's a road ahead of me through the illusion zone....."

Toad takes the parchment out of his pocket while saying it.

And when I presented the parchment, I showed the painting with my fingers.

"There was definitely a crystal drawn here. The colors and shapes match."

"Well done."

Pom!

Louis put his hand on Toad's shoulder.

"The world will be saved in its true meaning."

With a big axe on his shoulder, Young laughs.

"If we carry it well, the goddess can focus on the Great Demon Emperor with peace of mind. What a big deal, Toad."

"No, it's not."

Toad shaking his neck.

"This is everyone's business... all of us who have worked together so far"

Louis proudly rubbed his fingers under his nose.

"You're right, Toad. It's because we've all worked together that we have now."

"But what you found doesn't change what you did!

Gabba!

Miana jumped innocently from behind Toad.

"Yo, come on...."

"What's up, Toad? Damn, is Miana jumping you in the light? Soyu-toko won't grow after years."

When Ugung broke down, the surroundings boiled.

Toad that drips.

Hee. You're ashamed of yourself again, Miana. "

"You always do, don't you? I don't know how many years I've been interacting with you, us."

That's not true.

Once again, a soft smile occurs at Young's words.

"... if Toad finds a destination, we have to recall Strife."

She said so coolly when she was leaning against a tree with her arms braced.

He was a little far from everyone.

Araine looks southwest in a worrying direction.

"Strife... are you okay?

"I'm not worried about you, Araine. In that case, you'll still have to struggle with Louie after sticking together, huh?

When Young said so, Araine blushed.

Araine whispers blame with a fading voice.

"Nooooo... noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

"That's right... you always told me not to make jokes like that, Eugene!

Her cheeks became red and Louis panicked.

Mmm ~

Phew, Phew.

Miana swelled her cheeks in a mood.

Again.

Louis wondered.

Miana is often in a bad mood when herself and Araine are disfigured like this.

A long time ago.

That's right - it hasn't changed since before.

Louie.

Satsuki.

Toad.

Young.

Miana.

Strife

Araine.

Karo.

Bird Witcher.

Nannato.

Ten young acquaintances.

They have been together ever since they got to know each other.

Except for Louis, it's out of the ghetto.

Only Louis was the son of a nobleman.

However, he had long been connected to nine other people, regardless of identity differences.

Such a Louis - one day he left the house in silence.

To see the world with your best friends.

To survive the world on our own.

Karo looked nostalgic.

"It's impossible if all ten of them are together... they've been invincible for a long time."

Bird Witcher wriggles his arms behind his head.

"Unbeatable, but are we stronger than the most powerful of humans?”

Nannatotto smiles.

"We can't do this. If there's a chance that we can beat the" strongest man in the world "..."

The gaze of all but two of the men on this scene disperses into two men.

It's like a vote.

The eyes of the three of you captured the satsuki.

Four eyes caught on Louis.

Turn your gaze from Luin to Sutsuki, says Young.

"Which one of you is it?"

”Sword of valor."

This name collectively describes ten of them.

For nine of them, however, the name belongs to Louis Seal.

"If you can succeed the blood of a warrior of another world and defeat Luin Seal, the sword of valor, the most powerful of all mankind, the candidate is very good. And if there's another possibility..."

Everyone's eyes catch satsuki.

"There is no one else but the satsuki of the" residual blade. "

Hmm, and the sugar snorts at the interesting beard.

"I don't know... why don't you guys take a look at that” most powerful man "too lightly? Well, I don't know how much of my moves work with that monster... but I'd like to give it a try. Of course, I don't think I can win."

Nannato sweats cold and scratches poly head.

"A nice man who kills a human species almost by himself often says... if it's a monster..."

The usual nannato shoots through the satin with a sharp gaze.

"I would recommend you to be naughtier than Louis, right?

Louis agrees immediately.

"That's right. Satsuki is the one I want to catch up with someday."

Hmm.

Now, ironically, the satsuki snorted.

"Very often... from my point of view, Louis, the real monster is himself."

"--That's not true! Compared to satsuki..."

"I've told you so many times that you don't like excessive modesty, Louis."

"...... bad"

Well...

Sutsuki turns his back.

"If there's one drawback to the Louin Seal - I'm too kind. Someday... that kindness might destroy you."

With straight eyes, Louis stares at Satsuki's back.

"- Oh, I'll remember the liver. Hehe... thank you for worrying, Satsuki."

"... hmm"

And there was a rubbing sound of grass.

He showed up.

"It's too late, Nyaki."

A girl with pale peach hair.

One of its features would be its large hand.

The size and shape of the nails are different from that of humans.

Her peeking hands and feet are the same light peach color as her hair.

Does the ear resemble that of the cat family?

The tail has a bumpy, spreading shape.

They will fall into a fairly short category.

The apex of my ear came to Louis' chest.

Faces are not inferior to humans.

Her lovely, crisp eyes are also faint peach.

The girl, called Nyaki, was breathing shallowly repeatedly.

Small branches and leaves are caught in my hair.

It is fluffy and feet are suspicious.

That should be it.

Nyaki was carrying a huge backpack.

Compared to the swords of bravery, there is obviously a lot of luggage.

"Ooh, sorry I'm late...."

/(adv-to, adv-to) (1) (on-mim) (on-mim) (on-mim) (on-mim)

As I lowered my head, I wobbled.

"Hmm!?

Gashan!

Cookware that was hanging beside the backpack.

They were bumped into some ground.

Blushing.

In a hurry, Nyaki lowered his backpack to the ground.

Pick up the cookware immediately.

and

"Nh..."

Louis licked his lips.

"Nyakiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Dogga!

"Fuga!?

Nyaki was blown away with a front kick.

You can hit the trunk of a tree hard from your back.

I heard a dull sound.

"Phew, nnh..."

Slips into the ground or into the ground without force.

"... come on, stand up"

/(adv-to, adv-to) (on-mim) (on-mim) sniffing/sniffing/sniffing/sniffing

Karo grabbed his arm and dragged Nyaki.

After that, Karo threw Nyaki at the mercy of his forces.

"Fuga!?

"I'm thrown in front of Louie."

Louie's muzzle, looking down, is trembling.

Everyone staring at Nyaki is cold.

It's a

It's anger.

It's an insult.

Hate.

"That cooking utensil is something that Arlene, who always cooks for me, cherishes... but how could you do that...!?

Araine covered her face with both hands and burst into tears.

"Why... why do you always do terrible things to me!?

Nyaki bent her knees in a hurry and lowered her head with vigour.

"But I'm sorry!" "Mr. Louin, Mr. Arlene, ladies and gentlemen... I'm so sorry for what I've done!" "I'm really reflecting on you!"

"Always... it's always just the words from the top, hey!

Eugene drinks a lot.

Toad stepped on Nyaki's hand.

"Fugah!?

Screaming.

But he doesn't seem to resist.

"You didn't reflect on it, damn it... I always think that if I sat down, I would apologize. But I don't really have a heart...."

"But I'm sorry!" "Nyaki is as smart as you say, so I can't apologize in good faith!" Anyway... I'm sorry! "Sorry!"

"... as usual, Uzza. I wonder why you can't make one effort to get used to it...."

Miana looks in the future and begins to play with her hair.

Karo pushed the soles of his shoes against the head of the nyaki.

"Put your forehead on the ground, will you? That's why you're apologizing... are you serious?

"I'm sorry too!"

Nyaki pushes his forehead forcefully against the ground.

"Exactly!" "Forgive me!"

Bird Witcher sighs blatantly.

"I really don't have a core, this guy's modoki... you don't have to tell him, you have to realize it from yourself. I'm going to make you feel bad about chest turds."

"Don't you have a head to think for yourself, faggot? Holy shit."

Nannatot threw a pebble and hit the temples of the yaki.

"Nyah!?

"Even if I'm screaming like I'm bad... that's good"

"Get up, Nyaki."

"So, if you could step aside... Nyaki, that would be very helpful..."

"No, no, that's guts."

Toad can put more effort into the foot he's stepping on.

"I don't have enough guts! You're licking me!?

"Come on, get up!

Eugene continues to rage.

Araine was still crying.

"I don't like it anymore... my journey with Nyaki is over... and I'm going to get weird like this..."

Be careful, Araine.

"Louie, but...."

Louis burned his eyes in rage and stared at Nyaki.

"... stand up, Nyaki. Toad and Karo, move your legs."

When Louis told me, they walked away honestly.

Then Toad and Karo grabbed her hands and pulled her up.

Nyaki will stand up.

"Nyaki... I'll give you a chance to get it back. What do you think we need if we want to stay with the sword of valor? You have not given the right answer yet. [M] It's time for me to put up with it."

Er, erm...

Hurry up.

"Let me, sincerity...?

"Nyyyyyy!

"Fuggyah!?

Nyaki was beaten with incredible wind pressure.

"Blowing up."

More intensely than before, the nyaki was struck by the thick trunk of the tree.

"Haah... haah...!

Luyn breathes roughly on her shoulders.

Miana sat close to nature.

"Are you okay, Louie?!

"... it hurts"

Huh?

Louis grabbed his left chest like an eagle.

"Do you understand me, Nyaki...!? My heart hurts dozens of times more than you! It hurt!

"Louie!"

Miana hugged Louie in tears.

"I know... everyone knows what you're doing for Nyaki."

"Miana... but I..."

"Hey!? You need to reflect on that.

Nyaki doesn't move.

"Hey, hey, hey! Wake up!"

"Oi, hey - you're alive, right...?

Young sweats cold.

Toad rushed over.

Little by little, Toad breathed relief.

"It's okay... I'm just fainting."

"Oh dear, it's a mess... if I die here, I won't be able to face Master Visis"

Louis wiped his tears and walked away from Miana's hug.

And then we go forward.

"Even if we do more, it's just hard for us... For now, let's fly the army pigeon to Visis and give him the good news of our discovery."

On Luyn's instructions, Nannatot starts preparing.

Without it, the army magic dove was freed from the bird cage.

Everyone was watching the military magic doves flying away for a while.

Eventually, the army magic pigeon disappeared, and the air seemed to have finished its work.

"... and another breath."

Louis nods when he says so.

"Oh, it's been a long time. But at last..."

Wait, Young.

Shh, Louie pointed her finger at her lips.

Something's coming.

Southwest - where Strife went exploring.

"Strife! You're back!

An approaching figure.

But as he approached, Louis noticed how strange it was.

"Str, life...?

The darkness created by the deep trees...

It was from there that I appeared - my life.

He opens his mouth.

"Ah, Min, N-na-run..."

"Eh...? Hey, what? Ugh, shh..."

Araine's eyes shaken violently.

She then closed her mouth with both hands.

Strife's neck.

A single arrow is piercing through.

"Me... Array, Nu's... no... a long time ago, ah..."

Shit.

Unfinished, Strife fell on the spot.

I found out that it was cut.

"Hey... why? What the hell is this? What the hell is this!?

Miana gets upset.

Young burst into tears and shouted with his gaze forward.

"I know how you feel, but calm down now, Miana...."

"Shh, shh, shh! This is a lie! No... no!

"Miana!

It was Louis who shouted with a sad sound.

"Le, in."

It must be Louis who's tougher than anyone else.

It was an unpleasant voice.

Fluff

The tearful Miana relaxed from her knee.

Toad expresses carelessness and supports Miana who is about to fall.

Carlo asked, suppressing the tremor of his voice caused by grief.

"What do you think?

That's what I'm asking.

There was Luyn, who had rushed to Strife first.

Louis had a sword in his pocket.

However, his gaze is observing the body of Strife at his feet.

Countless cuts on the shoulders and back.

If you look closely, you can also see a scratch on your arm that looks like a defensive wound...

Looking at the wound, Louie saw through.

"This wound wasn't caused by a monster."

The opponent is definitely a person.

Miana makes you feel even more emotional.

"People in the demonic band...!? A person!? What the fuck!? Who's this... this... this... this!

It was then.

The first thing I noticed was Louis Seal.

"- Louin"

I noticed the same thing about Satsuki.

Louin-- he noticed the sweat on his cheeks.

A gentle, nasty sweat covers the pattern of the sword...

Oh, Louie and I agreed.

Then he turned to the darkness and called out.

"Who are you?

A few surprisingly small scratches of leaves rang.

Then the figure appeared.

Swords and Shields - Knight Dress.

"You guys are the swords of valor, right?

As it continues, the same knights appear one after the other.

Louie's breathing is getting faster.

"Why... why are you... knowing that we are swords of valor..."

Louie moans with a squeezing voice.

Your shoulders trembled little by little.

The beat - your breathing increases its roughness.

"The emblem of that shield--"

That's funny.

They must be the compatriots of the Allion.

A fellow man holds his sword quietly.

"God (...) Beast (...), take it"

Why?

"Why did Urza's Knights of Magic Warfare..."

sooner than Louis would have exhausted the doubt,

Urza's Magic Warriors are moving.

Arrows that continue to be fired to support the Magic Warrior Knights.

So...

The loss of life started.

Dotcha!

Louis broke his knees and sank into a swamp of blood.

"Haah... hah, ahhhhh...!

Look up at heaven.

Blood flowing through the temples.

Blood dripping from the jaw to the ground.

It's soaking into the soil.

"Hah, hah... hah! What are you doing...?"

Louis' neck broke violently forward.

Goddamn it!

"Hah, hah... why, why... why..."

Slowly raise your face, Luin.

"Why are you so ruthless!?

What you see in Louie's eyes...

Scattering bodies of Magic Warriors.

Guh

Young stabbed the still breathtaking Magic Warrior.

No one died of the sword of valor but Strife.

No, they didn't suffer a single scratch.

Meanwhile, the Knights of Magic Warfare were supposed to be overwhelmed by numbers.

This one is left alone, and everything is dead.

The appearance of the dead was terrible.

Everyone will know the scattered bodies at a glance.

It can be said that the hatred of the swords of valor is fully conveyed.

It was Bird Witcher who brought the surviving Magic Warrior across the Pond of Blood.

"Louie... as you instructed, I let one live."

The only one who survived first appeared.

Goddess Beast, I'll take it.

He was a man who said so.

The man's eyes... they're not dead.

”Never show fear in front of enemies, even in desperate circumstances."

Such a hard will is conveyed.

Louin reached out to the Magic Warrior's neck silently.

However,

"Luin"

I was pinched by satsuki, and I pulled back my hand.

He was unconsciously trying to strangle the man.

"... I'm sorry. Thanks for stopping me, Satsuki."

Luin takes a deep breath and lowers his hips.

Then he placed his elbow on one of his standing knees.

"You said you'd take the beast..." What do you mean? Tell me everything. "

…………

"Please, tell me."

"There's nothing to talk about, no matter what you do. Kill him with all your heart."

Breathe, Louie.

"Ok - Toad, please."

Louis told me, Toad nodded silently.

Toad pulled a flat rod out of the waist band.

Louis accepts the offer silently.

Inexplicably, the Magic Warrior knight frowned.

"... yasui?

"It's a special bowl. When combined with my strength, most things shred... yes, even human bones."

Come here.

A cold sweat passed through the Magic Warrior's cheeks.

"... what are you going to do?"

"Fingers"

Louis held his tongue there.

Instead, Karo undertakes to continue the explanation.

"I'll scrape your fingertips all the way down to the root."

"─!"

Magic Warrior who understands everything and blues.

In addition, Young will take over.

"It hurts... enough to lose consciousness on the way. But even if he faints, he is forced to wake up again. If you play with your wounds, you'll regain consciousness even if you don't like the pain... and you'll faint when you start shaving again. Repeat that... over and over again."

"--if you're stupid"

"Don't worry."

Young stares at the Magic Warrior with harsh eyes.

"Miura... before I cut to the root, I'm going to throw up all my hidden parts. Sometimes I've tried to cut it out to see what happens when I do it to the end, but... heh heh heh heh. I'm watching, and it was tough."

Louis floats his hips in his hands, feeling uncomfortable.

"... let's get started"

"Wait - there's nothing to talk about! It's true!"

"But you're lying."

Huh?

"My guess is... you're not the Knights of War, are you?

"─ ─ ─!"

"That reaction is the answer... to the armor, probably the Knights of Magic War costume. Isn't that right?"

That ”conjecture” of a rarely working Louis boasts an incredible medium rate.

Everyone had faith in him for a long time.

Why can I trust you?

Why do you do it?

I cannot present any rationale.

But whatever is done for some reason on the basis of that conjecture is always right.

His conjecture always leads to the right ”answer”.

Louis Seal is the ”right man” everywhere.

Therefore, is it the ability that you have been given?

Or is it the specificity of the brave blood family?

In any case, his conjecture has never been different.

Yeah, well...

Louis is right.

That's why

"So there's nothing to talk about." - That's impossible.

Louis' righteous soul burns.

He gripped his head hard with his thoughts on Strife.

Attach a rough jagged face to the knight's fingertips.

"Let's start with a little finger."

From the face of the Magic Warrior Knight, it draws a great deal of blood.

"Hold on! - Please, wait a minute!

Gilli

Louie bit her teeth.

"Shut up... it's too late! Besides, you should taste the pain of your life with it! He must have hurt so bad...!

Louie twisted her face and drooling.

Miana, who stood beside her, shed tears.

"Louie - Yeah, yeah, Louie!

I am extremely impressed.

"And our hearts that lost our precious companions - as painful as that! It hurt!

Zariririri!

Two back and forth.

I cut off the tip of my nails.

I can't stand the harsh realities that are approaching.

Ha...

At an astonishing rate, the magic knight can't afford it.

"Talk, talk, talk! I'll tell you what I know! So..."

"Strife's vengeance!

The Golden Household Demon Zone - in the western corner.

The veterinary screams that drove me into trouble echoed.

"Uhh... uhh... I just talked to you... and... killed you..."

Karo asks with his gaze.

Louis nodded back.

Karo switches swords.

An ever-breathing Magic Warrior.

The warm, callous thrust penetrated his head.

There was a short voice that could not help but scream - the Magic Warrior was doomed.

Looking down at the state of the wretched Magic Warrior's hands, Satsuki said.

The identity of this guy is Mira's.

They tried to impersonate the Knights of War.

Hmm, young-goog with eyebrow roots.

"I don't know... the Mira Empire is just like Kina right now. He was working at the behest of General Le Haite, who soon said he was going to turn his back on Mad Beauty Emperor."

Louie says.

"Le Haite Mira was the first prince to inherit the throne. Meanwhile, Emperor Madame's right of succession to the throne is now in third place... In other words, both current Prime Minister Kaiser and his brothers who now have the first and second place of succession to the throne serve their youngest brother. It's no wonder the two older brothers think of Emperor Mad Beauty."

"So... even if it's the hand of Mira, it's the hand on the side hostile to Mad Beauty Emperor."

But, Young-goong, put your arms together.

"Why would that Ruheit want a god beast?

"... I can predict. So when we're done here, let's get rid of Nyaki. Do you mind?

Without hesitation, everyone agrees to Louis' proposal.

More importantly, Louin shifts his gaze.

Everyone felt the same way.

Everyone was waiting for it above all else.

"We have to bury Strife... and say goodbye to everyone."

Friends left behind.

Everyone thought that whatever they did should be a top priority.

It's a tribute to Strife.

Even while we're fighting.

Even after the battle is over.

Everyone was worried about Strife's body.

Everyone loved him.

That's why I want to say goodbye properly.

Until satisfactory.

Afterwards - everyone cried to tears.

Those who had endured tears finally destroyed the jetty.

However, only satsuki did not show tears.

But nobody blames him.

The frustration comes from his expression.

I've never seen a satsuki so depressed before.

Everyone says their thanks and farewell to Strife.

Over and over again.

I can't carry the body.

I can't save it either.

Therefore,

Together, they made a grave, weeping.

A tomb of earthen strife.

Put his dagger there.

Louis closes at the end.

"If you die here... your soul will always be with us, Strife"

Araine, standing behind Louis, burst into tears again.

Miana, who was also overflowing with tears, approached her and comforted her.

Louis turned around, comforted by the sharing of grief.

Is that it?

He notices.

You were supposed to have fainted.

"Nyaki is gone."
