Lead the other world.

- Zan... Zan...

Midnight of the day when there was the Yamato Toyota Festival. Ledda, one of the Verdes of the St. Knights of Astrea, was walking alone on the coastal road with a drunken awakening.

Simon and Ledda of the Astrea Saints were told of the drunken Verde's stupidity until the store closed.

"Mr. Verde was quite drunk...... I guess I still regret not being able to fight you, Takumi."

Yes, Ledda shrugged and lowered her back to the edge of the rock that protruded into the sea where there was no popular "Hitoshi" while being blown by a pleasant cold night breeze.

"Ha... What am I trying to say about stupidity... I was the only one who lost the first round..."

- Hugh ~...

The wind was blowing from the sea, and there was a slight smell of tide.

"It's a good breeze..."

"Right."

"Right...... ugh!?

As soon as I did, there was more and more unpleasant sweat all over Ledda's body. I hurried up and looked back at the back where my voice spoke.

There stood quietly one man in a black hooded coat. And Leda could only see the man's mouth because of the deep hood and the dark surroundings at midnight.

(This guy... how long have you been here? Didn't even notice...)

Having regained her composure, Reda asked the man.

"How long have you been there? And what do you want from me?

The man, who heard Leda's words, awhile later, leaned down and began to shake his shoulders a little with one hand to keep his face down.

"Duh, what's up?

I felt creepy about the man, and I couldn't bear to speak to him.

The man raised his face only slightly to Ledda's words. And Leda noticed. to a man laughing.

"Hey, what's wrong?

"From the beginning."

"What?"

Ledda overheard the man's words without understanding them.

"I'm telling you I've been behind you ever since you left the store. And you said something about that, right?

Leda lost her words because of the man's words and the sudden intention to kill directed at herself.

Ignoring Leda in such a state, the man slowly continued his words.

"To kill you."

Ledda was reflexively pulling her sword out of her hips after feeling her wrist and spine freeze.

"Ah, ah...... Whoa!?

Whoa, whoa.

- Zan... aah... Zan... aah...

One scream was echoing amidst the sound of the waves.

But no one noticed that scream echoing along the coast without the popular "One".

- Zan... Zan...

And as if nothing had happened, the sound of the waves again kept at regular intervals and began to sound quietly.
