Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai

Tabernacle 16 "Encounter (2)" [Siegbelt Gilès]

I don't know why one of the four murderers is after Cecily.

I don't know, though.

All this man has to do is get to Cecily Arklight, and we have to stop him.

Intuitively, Sieg was so sure.

Do not let them encounter you.

It's not good for her and this guy to run into.

But what do we do?

- What am I supposed to do?

"Hey, you know what? Don't you know? Play? If you don't, play with me?

Sieg glanced at Hilgis, who is slightly behind him.

- Run, get ready.

but Hilgis responds with both an acknowledgement and a rejection.

"Heh heh!

Nope.

A man stands in front of Zeke.

"Are you listening to people?

Once again overwhelmed by the size of the man, Zeke tried to answer calmly.

"Where Cecily Arklite is, was it?

"Yeah."

"... I know"

"Huh! Really!? It's Cecily Arklite!? Ah! If I lie, I'll kill you right away!?

"It's up to me to know. I'm very close to Cecily Arklite. No... only about me, I wouldn't know where she is. What the man didn't know earlier, he couldn't help it."

"Heh, yeah! Wow, wow! Oh, and you're in good hands! Now you can compliment Brother Masso!

Masso.

Probably the name of one of the four fiends.

But what bothered Sieg more than that was the statement as if there were other Four Homicides looking for Cecily.

Are you saying that the man in front of you isn't the only one looking for Cecily?

"Except..."

Sieg puts his hand on the sword pattern.

"I'm not going to teach you anything."

"Why!? You're gonna die!"

"You just said you wanted to play, didn't you? Then... play, shall we?

The man reacted perfectly.

"Huh? You want to play with me!? Are you gonna play me? Glad to hear it! It's very rare for people to speak up to play from themselves!

A man's gaze captures Siege's sword.

"Power comparison!? The power comparison!?

With a face a man is good at, he turns his arms around as if he were going to do prep exercises as well.

"Fine! I love the power comparison too! Now, let's do it!

"Wait."

"Wait? What? Let's play fast. Ooh!

Sending another signal with his gaze to Hilgis, who shows his strays, Zeke walked to the body of the guard the man had abandoned earlier.

He then bows down and pulls out the guard's lower back sword.

"Hey, what are you doing? Let's do it fast ~, power comparison"

When Zeke returned to the man, he offered with a sword pattern pointed at him.

"Sword?"

A man tilts his neck.

I don't need a weapon, do I?

Phew, and Sieg made me smile.

"It's boring, isn't it?

"Huh?"

"You know that. There's too much difference in power between me and you. Fight in that state - play, have fun?

It was then.

The man's eyes narrowed.

"Hmmm... Hmmm... I see... right... I always thought it was boring because it was too easy to win"

A man took the sword offered.

"I mean, this is a battle with just a sword, right? Because I'm too strong to compete. [M] But... I still don't feel like losing."

A man who waves his sword to try, peeking at his confidence.

The wind doesn't even feel the weight or dust.

Sieg also pulled his sword out of his sheath and set it up.

"Hilgis"

"... what?

Hilgis had been showing Sieg a tour since he told him to run away with his gaze.

"Out of the way. Distractions."

…………

"With you... I can't play with this man with all my might"

A man sees Hilgis.

Then I'll kill you.

"If I kill that woman there, I won't play with you!

Sieg's drink stops the man on the move perfectly.

"Oh, my God! How could you..."

"If the body's rolling, I can't move in the way! That's right! That woman's corpse will only be in sight and I won't be able to have fun!

"Mmmm... ok..."

Hilgis distorted his expression and finally ran out to the alley behind him.

- That's it.

Intentions should have been conveyed without words.

He wants me to get away from here while I'm buying myself time and head to Cecily.

He wants me to tell him that the aim of the Four Homicides - at least two of the four - is Cecily Arklite.

One, take a deep breath.

For once Sieg has also touched strong men at far heights such as Hibigami and Currier.

Thanks also to this, the quality of the opponent's strength has become more discernible than before.

And

Relatively soon, I gained a sense of reality.

After all, the Four Violent Disasters are unique.

I'm not the right person to fight and win.

And now that they've come here, including the man who destroyed the Great Clock Tower... it's likely that the Knights of the Holy Tree have been defeated.

Die, I thought.

I could instantly understand how much the man in front of us was going to kill ourselves.

Whatever you say with your mouth, this man is not going to honestly miss ourselves.

It was bright and white that he would draw into what he repeatedly said was' play kill '.

What should we do then?

What Sieg came up with was to avoid the worst.

The worst end is that Sieg and Hilgis will both die here.

At least let Hilgis live.

The intention I conveyed to Hilgis was a sort of pretext.

Anyway, I made up a reason and thought we should get her out of this place.

I really wanted to tell Crohiko and Currier that Cecily was being targeted, if that was possible.

I want you to protect Cecily.

That's what I wanted to tell you.

But in this situation of the Four Homicides, there is no way to know the exact position of the two.

There is also no guarantee of staying in the school or castle.

- All I can do now is wish Cecily well.

I feel sorry for Sieg.

that I am equal to helplessness.

Like Cecily Arklite, she also doesn't have the talent to have the potential to lead to Shura.

Like Currier Verstein, he doesn't have a forged sword move on Shura's path.

Like Sagara Krohiko, she doesn't have the power of a curse or the talent of a sword that crosses with Hibigami.

- Still, at least,

Point the sword tip at the man.

- Eyes or just tendons in the legs.

That can be in exchange for your own life.

It's Soni.

A man who would have crossed the two latals said something as he looked down at Sieg.

"Soni?"

"It's my name. I'm Soni Anglen. So, what about you? I'll ask you your name because it's rare who invited you to play from me. Hey, tell me?

"Sieg."

Focus your nerves and grip the pattern in.

"Siegbelt Gilès"

"Sieg... yeah, okay. Come on, let's play -"

Man - Soni, he wielded his sword.

"Sieg!"

Sieg took Soni's first shot backwards as he stepped forward.
