Chapter 7: 25 "Reunion Is Like Burning Blood"

― ― It was a bright, scorching flame and a [red] girl with intense scented blood.

On the top floor of the city government building, the suddenly transformed space into a battlefield, and the gaze of the devastated tragedy is monopolized by the violent beauty with a red shining treasure sword in its hand.

Dazzling orange hair, a luxurious dress with a blood color, and a feminine charm make a strong impression on someone even from behind.

――――

Svalbard's thoughts were scratched by confusion as he gazed at his back with indifferent words and spread his hands.

Forgetting the pain and breathlessness of the whole body for that moment alone, it was the spirit of "why" that jumped around in an empty head in disorder.

Why is she here?

Why did you help Subaru?

How could I confront Arachia so peacefully?

The question of why, why, why, why, why, why, why and why is not exhausted.

Subaru is dominated by inexhaustible questions and forgets the passage of time.Then the [red] woman snorted as if she were mocking such a still Subaru.

"That's the face that came off between."Were your eyes burned by the nobility of your concubine? "

"--Oh, you keep your eyes on the back of your head?"

"By the way, can you see a concubine in such a deformity?"I can tell by my breath how foolish I am. "

Without looking back, Priscilla Barriel replied majestically.

Staring at her answer, which could not have been here, Subaru did not say anything to deny the ridiculous story of his expression in his breath.

The situation moved slowly in front of Subaru, who could only be dumbfounded.

Well...

With a short sigh, Priscilla, holding the red treasure sword, looked around.

The tragic situation of the city government building, which was completely overlooked by a sudden intruder.Even the wounded [Shudrak people] and the fainted Zikl could barely move around like Subaru and the Rem in the back, and Abel on the balcony.

And I did it--

"--Alachia"

――――

Red eyes narrowed, and Priscilla quietly looked at the opponent.

The silence in his gaze was guarded by Arachia, a silver-haired half-beast man with brown skin - the first general of the Empire.

It is said to be the second most powerful person in the Volakia Empire, and it shows off its unique strength in the sign.With her red right eye not covered by her eyelids, she caught Priscilla's strong willed eyes head-on - No, it wasn't.

"Hime-sama..."

Until very recently, Arachia maintained a very solid world of self.But with Priscilla's eyes shining and a beat, her world collapsed.

What emerged instead was a fierce upset and a similarly great joy.

"Princess, princess, princess..."

Disperse the dangerous atmosphere and speak as Arachia confirms over and over again.

It was a glimpse of the obsession of the little brothers and sisters trying to hold on to their brothers and sisters' ties, as if the lost child had reunited with his parents.

― ― Priscilla and Arachia, no one else knows the relationship between them.

As usual, Subaru doesn't even know why Priscilla came here.That's why I can only tell that there was an unexpected past between the two of us.

That past relationship was a setback to Arrakia's warlike intentions, the most dangerous presence on the scene.

"--Oh"

Arachia descends a thin branch of the tree and moves forward in a sense of emotion.Or maybe she just tried to jump into Priscilla's chest.

I must have cuddled up and tried to follow the passion that burst into my chest.

But--

"Heme-sa-"

"Shut up."

It didn't come true.

The short and harsh cry was accompanied by a flash of beating.

One step, Arachia, who was about to take a step, the red glow of just a few centimeters from the claws of his bare feet, and the red flame burned up to prevent further progress.

――――

At best, it was a flame of fire like a burning fire to the tip of his leg.

With that in mind, Arachia's long legs are the size of a span of flames - but Arachia can't move like a wall that can't be crossed.

As it was, Priscilla continued to cool off at Arachia, who opened her eyes to unexpected deeds.

Arachia, why did you try to come under my concubine now?

"Huh...?"

"Did you really think that the concubine would bounce her chest at the reunion and hold you in this arm?"If that's the case, I can't help but be amazed by your weather prowess. "

Priscilla's repeated words were imbued with contempt for Arachia.Even the daze of words is completely cutting off the walk to Arachia.

Arachia would have known about the isolation.She shook her eyes in amazement, desperately trying to find an optimal solution to Priscilla's words.

But--

"Pu, Prisca-sama..."

"Prisca is dead. ---Time has passed and you have gained a position, but you haven't changed anything?"

"--Oh"

"It's not arousal. There's no emotion in the soil of my hometown after a long time, and there's no emotion in losing weight like this."

Priscilla's impression is that she doesn't hide the evidence that her heart is deeply disappointed.

To be honest, Priscilla's understanding of her breasts and the stability of the situation were lacking.Nevertheless, Subaru knew that the heart of Arachia had been greatly broken by his heartless words, and that he had shed blood.

A deep wound that was scorned by a dear, bonded opponent.

Arachia's eyes shook as she was told to wake up head-on, and it was not strange to squat on the wound.Instead of crouching, however, she becomes passionate about the red eye.

Unlike anger, it is a lamp of determination and readiness.

"... it doesn't matter what the princess thinks."It's tough, but I've made up my mind. "

"-" I didn't know you decided that.Can you recall my concubine's interest?I'll tell you what I've decided. "

Priscilla provocatively throws words at the quiet appeal of Arachia, whether she is willing to do so or not.Receiving it, Arachia said, "I am!”He raised his face and barked.

As he barked, Arachia squeezed his thin knee.

"To the Empire! Take the princess's place!" That's why-- "

The excited arachia, the spearhead of its emotions, is not the priscilla in front of it, which has no ear to hear.

Her eyes detached from the front of Priscilla and turned in the wrong direction.The tip of the spear of passion, it was still on the balcony that Abel watched.

My lord liar ~!!

Her eyes burned with passion, and Arachia's slender body jumped up high.She ignored the barrier of fire between Priscilla and Abel, and set her aim on Abel's balcony.

The jumping force was unusual.However, it is not surprising that you are the second most powerful person in the Empire.

The problem is that no one but Priscilla has the means to stop the murders.

"No, Abel...! Priscilla!"

"Don't make a fuss. You're cheap, fool.Who have you forgiven and renounced your concubine's name? "

"Not when I'm talking about it..."

"- Don't make a scene, that's what I said."

Priscilla kept her treasure sword lowered in one hand and did not listen to Subaru's appeal.

After the intimidation that made the next action unreadable, Abel was approached by the figure of Arachia leaping like an arrow in the breathtaking sight of Subaru.

――――

Abel is bleeding from his forehead as he grabs a handrail on a half-broken balcony.

The man who did not show up to Priscilla's sudden break-in was still looking at Arachia with his domineering black eyes and standing upright.

As usual, it was a well-known fact that he was not strong enough to intercept one of the strongest men in the Empire. Subaru did not know why he was not desperate.

I don't know--

"Abel!!"

I know it's pointless, but when I try to rush over, my legs lose strength in the first step.Svalbard falls, and Arachia approaches Abel with a sight that can only be reached--

― ― The next moment, the chain of events was beyond Subaru's understanding.

――――

With a thin look at Arachia, Abel stepped hard on the balcony floor.Shortly thereafter, the cracks enlarged the half-damaged balcony and the scaffolds collapsed in one go.

Of course, Abel, who was on top of it, would fall down without a second thought, and it wouldn't be like that.

Abel's body, which was supposed to fall, hangs in the air.Pinned and stretched out, his right hand was grabbing the top-floor curtain that was pulled into the balcony.

Hiding his lifeline under the handrail, Abel broke his footing on his own volition.

Or it could have been a plan that involved a collapse and dropped downstairs all at once if the opponent was a courier.

However, the opponent is the [Nine God Generals], who is also a powerful person for [️].

"Play with it...!"

Holding on to the lifeline, Arachia strips her fangs to Abel, swaying like a pendulum.

She's lost her footing to land after the jump, but in the first place, Alachia's superhuman abilities, in addition to superhuman physical abilities, are her strengths.

As his legs swayed like flames, his knees changed shape from below to flames, and he controlled his posture in the air like a maneuvering weapon that blew vernia from his legs.

The flames that burned the miserda, the fierce tornadoes that scattered the miscellaneous soldiers, the carpentry that supported the fallen pillars, the gale that disarmed the rem, and finally transformed a part of his body into a flame.

Arachia's abilities, its diversity, are a threat that is completely invisible.

Die, my lord!

As it was, I couldn't hold my own posture, and when I turned around, I turned to Abel, and I didn't know how powerful the branches were.

So it's unclear whether it's going to poke, or whether it's going to cast magic, or whether it's going to exert a different supernatural effect.--Unknown, but Abel was shattered.

Only that certainty made Subaru's black pupils narrow their pupils in anxiety.

But--

"-Yeah, brother. I didn't know I was a brother by the sound of my voice right now."

Instantly, a figure cuts between Alachia and the hanging Abel.

The figure was defeated by Lem, and as he ran through the pillars fixed by Arachia, he threw a blow from the side of the stretched branch.The sword strike of the thick blue dragon sword, and Arachia returned her wrist and knocked it off with branches. However, the momentum of the rush was cut off and soared into the universe.

Meanwhile, it was difficult to prevent a personal ambush, and the person who landed said, "Ahhh!"He stepped on the rug.

"Shit, my arm hurts! Don't lightly hit back on your body, it's dented."

She leans back and waves her arms as she closes the series of events with a cry.Once again, it was someone out of Subaru's imagination who did it.

A man with a pitch-black full-helm covering his head and a bandit-like outfit from his neck down.The man, who looked like a wild animal or a bandit, was characterized by a thick right arm holding a blue dragon sword, and a left arm that had lost its shoulder.

He's a stranger. If Priscilla is here, it's natural that she should be working with her head.

That 's--

― ― Al?

"Hey, bro! I didn't think you'd run into me jumping across the border."I can't help but rejoice at the feelings of the fashion and this curiosity.... "

It was Priscilla's knight who tilted his neck and spoke out of place - No, Al, a squire.

He is holding back Alachia, whose legs are turning into flames and floating in the sky, in an unusually lethargic manner and in response to Subaru.

In this case, should we be surprised by Al, who prevented Arachia's attack even if only one, or by the durability of the branches of the tree, which have nothing against the Blue Dragon Sword?

“You should be surprised.After all, it didn't work out in one shot. "

"Out of my way, my lord, I can't kill you!"

"I've bothered to get in the way, can you get out of my way?"If I don't pass up here, my neck will fall off my torso. but.... "

Arachia barks in a furious form, and Al looks at her head-on with no hesitation.

Arachia's overexposed attire is not irritating to Al's gaze.Somewhere, it's just like a nostalgic emotional depth.

In fact, when Al exhaled admirably,

"Well, I grew up."I thought you'd be beautiful. "

"... who?"

"If you say so, I'll get scratched."We've saved each other's lives! "

Arachia frowned and question marked Al's familiar call.To her skinny side, Al kicked the pieces off the floor and took the distance.

And it came to pass, when Priscilla saw the work of Al, that he called him "Al."

"I know what you want from my concubine who brought you, not Schult." Let's get to work. "

"What are you doing!" Does it look like I'm having a good time playing with my cutie?If you lose your mind, you'll be borated in ten seconds, me!? "

If you look at it, it won't be the same as it is now.

"As expected, it's better than Borokus!?"Whoa!? "

With a heartless cheer from his master, Al, who is distracted, dies from the blow of Arachia.

Arachia, who was dancing in the air, spun the sky more freely than the birds, and Al desperately attacked the branches one after the other.

"Excuse me..."

When my daughter told me that, Osan's heart really hurts

Abel was suspended, and Al continued to shelter him.

Looking down at both of them, his eyes became angry, and he felt like he was fighting Arachia's whole body.Still, the reason she didn't release the horrific range of attack she showed us in the first place--

"Priscilla..."

Arachia called the princess and Priscilla.

Priscilla's attitude was cold and nothing but intermittent, but not for Arachia.That's why that Destruction is not going to happen.

So if we could move this situation, it would be Priscilla's floating power.

――――

"Don't look me in the eye, mortal fool."You can praise the beauty of the creation, but if you move your concubine, it will be a good place for disrespect. "

"Gu......"

Priscilla turned around on her knees, and there was no island to which she could attach herself.

Instead, it was Rem who had been sheltered by Subaru's back.She tied her lips and stood in front of Priscilla in a desperate step.

And then--

“Please, I need your help.”

"- Hmm, it's a fantastic story.Compared to fools, I can still say that I'm being polite. "

"... then..."

"Don't stray. And look at that."I'm ready to move. "

The possibility of buying Lem's plea, or Priscilla's displeasure, froze Subaru's back, but Priscilla showed the battlefield by jerking off her jaw without short thought.

At that point, Lem turned around in amazement, and Svalbard looked at the same person.

The balcony was a battlefield where Abel and Al could be slaughtered by Arachia in seconds.In fact, the situation is still going on.

"Ahhhhh! Nooooo!!"

Arachia fluttered in the sky with her burning legs, and Al managed to prevent her from repeatedly striking and leaving, even though she was extremely clumsy and clumsy.

But the continuum of miracles will not last forever.As soon as the shock of being struck accumulates in Al's whole body and the visible reaction starts to delay, the upper body is shaken by a large shot.

When Al collapsed, the next attack was unprotected, and at that moment.

"---!?"

Arachia tried to kick in the sky, her body shook unnaturally and her control was disturbed.

The fact that it was not a kind of attack motion that ordinary people did not understand, the eyes opened to surprise and the bitter sound of pushing and killing was truly expressed.

――――

Everyone is amazed by what happened and the modulation that happened to Arachia.

The two of them, Priscilla, who looked at the situation calmly, and the trickster, who was supposed to be in the middle of a fierce defense, were not caught by that surprise.

"-Trigger!!"

and an order to be struck by the smell of scorching and dusty air.

It was Abel the Hanging Man who sounded more rigorous than anger and more eloquent than arrogance.Furthermore, the man hanging from the curtain raised his voice at the opportunity that had arisen in the battle overhead.

It was as if I was convinced of the coming of this moment.

I'll ask you to reveal the seeds later!!

Al flew in response to Abel's strong tone.

An ill-qualified jump and a blow of the Blue Dragon Sword, unleashed while twisting, drew a parabola and slammed mercilessly into the thinness of Arachia, who was out of control - No, there was no mercy.

The wrists holding the Blue Dragon Sword were returned and the peaks turned towards Arachia, not the blades.

"You idiot."

Priscilla briefly abandons the inexhaustible carpenter.

And her predominantly intransigent eyesight on Aokan correctly predicted the situation.

"I'm retreating...!"

At the moment of the collision, there was a dull sound and Subaru wanted to turn away.

Al's body slammed into Arachia just as she was aiming, and she took it directly in front of her with her left arm.The elbow broke in the opposite direction, and the bone that broke the brown skin broke, leading to blood spasms.

It's a painful tragedy, but it can't be a deadly blow.

Behind the pitch-black helmet, Al curled low, and there was a sign that his cheeks were tightened in surprise.

Immediately afterwards, Arachia's thin feet slammed Al's neck from the side, and a violent blow slammed his body against the floor.A bouncing body blew up and collapsed out of the balcony.

"Oh, ahhhhh!?"

The crafty scream pulled his tail and Al disappeared from sight.

Of course he was safe, but now the obstacles between Abel and Arachia have disappeared.

Return both legs to their original state from the flame where the defect occurred, and Arachia rests her soles on the floor.This time, it was time to take the life of Abel by swinging a major.

─ ─ A black shadow flashed across Arachia's back.

"Oh, ohhhhhh!!"

A shadow blows up the rubble and raids Arachia with a violent roar.He holds a giant knife in his backhand and attacks with his hunting instincts.

For a moment, the identity of the shadow that was ambushed by the intent jumped over the understanding.

Wounded, black, scorched, forged, long, red dye-colored black hair and white patterns showing the "people of Südrak" painted on their skin --- Happily, Subaru exclaims.

Miss Mizelda!!

"Ahhhh!!"

Misserda continues to growl, spitting blood, not responding to her called name.

Mizelda was the victim of Arachia's first raid.With her whole body burned in flames, she continues to attack as if to burn her own life.

The relentless blade that was wielded was all aimed at Arachia's rush.

Unlike Al, there is no mercy or pity for the prey.And it came to pass, when Svalbard saw the battle, that she was the one whom Abel had commanded to set up.

Abel foresaw Arachia's malaise and was inspired by the struggle of dying Miselda.

I can't imagine how many brain cells he spent on this divine calculation under circumstances that seemed abrupt and irreversible.

But there's still not enough left to do.

――――

Misserda's struggle was empty, and even if it was, Arachia's ability to cope was mastery.

Arachia frowned with annoyance at the many dying Misserda attacks, easily prevented by the branches of the tree swinging roughly.

There's no point in mentioning the strength of that branch anymore.

The impact of the branches that were stripped away took Miselda's knife out of her hand and, instantly, the branches were pushed out of Miselda's unarmed torso.

The stem muscles of the forged steel are pierced by the branches without resistance, making an unpleasant noise.

Without hesitation, it scratches Miselda's body, destroys vital internal organs, and pushes the tough Amazonian flesh to death.

"Now, finally..."

"--Where were you looking, Le?"

The moment Arachia's consciousness went out of her way when she eliminated the intruders.

Miselda's eyes glowed brightly as she floated a bubble of blood on the edge of her mouth.She made a fierce smile that dyed her white teeth with blood, and grabbed the right hand holding the branch of Arachia with both of her hands.

Grasp hard and strong, and seal the movement.

――――

The momentary stagnation that arose was, perhaps, the last chance.

However, none of Subaru's allies, including Subaru, can take advantage of the moment created by Abel's wisdom and Miselda's dedication.

The "people of Shudrak", mainly the struggling chieftains, couldn't recover from the last great storm, and it was the same with Subaru who was finally connecting his consciousness.

Even the pillar-damaged Lem could not reach at that moment due to the deficiency of his legs from the usual point of view.

Together, they lose the chance of a one-man encounter.

However,

"--At most, lift your chest, Devil's Daughter."That your plea brought in a wave of concubines

However, those who did not reach them were allies, except for the third faction.

――――

Overlooking the battlefield, Priscilla puts her foot in the air, aiming for Arachia's defenseless back.

For a moment, Arachia noticed the impending sign behind her and moved to intercept her.Mizelda throws her arm at the enemy behind her.

But I couldn't.─ ─ I could no longer detect the sign.

"Hime-"

At all times, the Red Sword Flash struck at Arachia, who was unwaveringly obsessed with Priscilla.

Badly, the erupting blood was burned by the flames, and Arachia's body shook heavily.

"I told you, Arachia." ― ― By the time I see my concubine next time, I want you to be ready.

The promises of the past that have been exchanged, the sincerity of which is not worthy of others to enter.

It just turned out that the promise was Priscilla's unrelenting blow and Arachia's unrelenting failure.

――――

Arachia's body falls to the ground as she bathes her back with the blow of a red treasure sword.

Mizelda, who was grabbing her arm and blocking her movement, was also surrounded.The two fell as if they were entangled, and threw their limbs out as if they were slack and thread-cut dolls.

――――

In a state of constant movement, constantly stirring the air with swords and flames, it was swallowed by abrupt silence, and Subaru felt the illusion that time had come to a standstill.

One breath, or just one step, ruins everything, and the obsessive notion that everything will fall apart like a dream...

"-Mr. Miselda!"

At that time, it was Lem who shattered the stillness of the moment with a tight voice.

She crawls to the floor in a dramatic footsteps, rushing under Mizelda, who is folded over with Arachia.

Mizelda was burned all over her body, blown away by the wind, and pierced through her stomach.

Kneeling beside her, Lem took a breath and put his hands on Miselda's body with a deadly expression, trying to hold her back with a pale healing magic light.

"If you're stupid." Give me a hand. "

"--Ahhh"

Watching Lem's actions, Abel's voice reaches Subaru's inactive ears.

Abel was still unable to come up from the suspended state.Subaru shook his head and hurriedly headed towards you, looking down at the hollow of the empty balcony.

And Abel wrapped a curtain around his right arm, and his sharp eyes looked up upon Subaru.

"You survived. You have a lot of bad luck."

"... it seems like you still have enough hateful taste left."

She twisted her cheeks to Abel's mouth, and Subaru grabbed the curtain and pulled him up.

Honestly, if Subaru was worn out, so was Abel, who could be pulled up.I want to throw my limbs out right now and let go of my consciousness, but I can't say that either.

"Miss Mizelda, it's not just me..."

A lot of wounded people have fallen as a result of the Arachian tyranny.

In environments where healing magic can be invaluable, first aid that does not rely on magic is also required.I can't afford to let go of my consciousness.

To fall here means to allow yourself to be lost.

That can't happen.

That's why--

"Come up quickly..."

He grabbed Abel's hand as he gnashed his back teeth and dragged the curtain as far as he could reach.Relying on the feeling of being gripped back, he managed to pull up a man taller than himself.

Abel recovered from the hanging slightly burst into breath in front of Subaru, who was covered in rice cakes.

"It was a big deal." I'll give you a compliment. "

"Shut up..."

Cutting off the sincerity of the praise, Subaru tongued.

As it is, as it tries to get up to start taking action on the other wounded,

"--Don 't move on your own, mortal fool."Who do you think the ruler of this place is? "

――――

Subaru and Abel closed their mouths on their knees.

The two were quietly intimidated by Priscilla's gaze and shouting, the beauty of red that was lifted to showcase their full arms with their combined arms.

He is familiar, he is not unknown.

However, it is hesitant to nod when asked whether it is a good relationship.Not only was it a rival faction in the election, but it was caused by Priscilla's temperament.

Priscilla, who does not know what to give to anyone, is a powerful ally if she can try to solve the same problem, otherwise it becomes an unpredictable bomb.

He was a reliable ally in the battle against the water gate city of Pristella.How about this time?

You think she's a good ally in helping us defeat Arachia.

Either way--

"I'm hungry, but you will be the ruler of this situation, Prisca Benedict."

It was Abel who couldn't move and opened his mouth instead of Subaru who couldn't speak.

Abel called Priscilla by a different name, with one knee on the floor.But the sound was not only of him, but of Arachia before his fall.

That's what Priscilla called, when she snorted.

"With hatred, Prisca Benedict lost the battle and died mercilessly.Is it no longer the thing under the grave that speaks majestically? "

"... I see. Then, who are you and what do you call yourself?"

"-Priscilla Barriel. That's my concubine's name."Remember, Vincent Abelks. "

Priscilla and Abel's gaze staggered as they answered the question with dignity.

Between them, a storm of gaze accompanied by either flames or thunder.The Svalbard beside him was entangled, and it was best not to be blown away.

Priscilla, who knew the name of Abel, and Abel, who called Priscilla by a different name.

Svalbard breathed quietly as he felt the unexpected relationship between the two.

And the air of such murder...

"--Hey, anyone can help me, right?"I'm almost at my limit, though.

Al was caught in an external crystal lamp when it was dropped from the balcony, and only the voice for help was shaking the air in the air.
