And the time goes back a little.

In a place on the outskirts of the capital.

With eyes reminiscent of a sharp hawk, he continued to strike dexterously with a furious blow, and a man opposed to a woman who stared back at the opportunity to strike.

As they gently wet each other with fresh blood, they kept waving their swords at each other.

And Oliver screams out her name as he relentlessly releases a mass of anger and murderous rage around her.

"Berna, Dett ooooooo!!!"

Have you forgotten yourself in your anger?

Burned by anger and calmness, I couldn't find the sharpness of the original attack anywhere.

The figure of Oliver that was overwhelming Julius that night didn't exist there.

But still, the "collector" who handles countless magic.

Lacking calmness, I couldn't go without a rope, and unlike Julius' time, it was all a blow to kill.

Therefore, even a moment of caution was fatal.

"... why,"

Along with a big blow, there was a murmur of indignation.

"Why are you under those bastards...?"Why are you moving as an aristocratic dog!?... That's right, that's right. Why did you abandon your brother at that time?!Answer, Bernadette!!!! "

That's not all Oliver had to say. It's not over yet.

"Weren't you my best friend?"Weren't you a family member?And yet, how did you end up with a nobleman?Why did you kill him? Why did my brother have to die?Y-you still exist in the Knights? "

I wanted to ask that.

After all, the gaze that I wanted to ask was filled with feelings of despair.

And that's why Oliver is working with Alsted under the pseudonym Amess.

No, maybe it's because I was struck by the magic of the spirit system.

"I admired you."I was told my brother was dead, until that moment...!!! "

It's a factless trick.

But Bernadette doesn't deny it.

It's just a stormy blow.

Do you believe that it is your sin?

Is that your decision again after hearing what happened that night from Lusas?

It's just silence.

But was that the act of fueling Oliver's frenzy?

The anger swelled further, and the roar of resentment roared.

Then, the sound of sparkling collisions continued twice and three times,

"I couldn't save your brother."That's the truth. That's the only unshakeable fact. ”

Bernadette answered with an indifferent voice.

"And I see this as the greatest atonement I can do."

"Atonement...?"

"Oh, yes, that's why I'm still clinging to the Knights so ugly."

Has anger reached its peak?

A voice resembling the sound of the ground came, which made me wonder where it was coming from.

"Is that the answer?" Is that what you really mean?You belong to the Knights who can't protect a single people, and you are there to defend a filthy nobleman who blames one member of the Knights for all his sins, insults, scolds, and protects his own peace!?All right. Then I'll kill everything!!I'll destroy everything!! "

That's why Oliver has a limited affirmation of killing.

The reason is just that I want to protect the weak (people) who can't have the means to fight, and now I want to persevere in the will of my deceased brother.

And now, Oliver was the notorious wizard who killed the wizard, but he knew what he was doing.

Bernadette smiled there for the first time.

"You're no different."

There is no mockery in the words.

No hostility, no disappointment.

It was just a voice of pure kindness and kindness.

"Were you fighting for the people?"Yeah, it looks like you. Looks like you to me.And you were going to kill me at the end. "

Bernadette's combat prowess stands out among the Knights' humans, as she is entrusted with the command of the Knights.Even in the Kingdom, it was rumored that it would enter the five fingers.

Therefore, even if you are an Oliver with the abilities of a "collector", you won't be able to do it on your own.

That's the wizard who used to belong to the Knights.I don't think I can win unless I take away all their abilities.

”Sure enough, if you were to kill me, including all the things I've ever done, I might not have been too reluctant to accept it (...,...,...)”

What may happen here is a manifestation of rejection.

Therefore, until you are exposed to the shame of life, the blood vessels floating on Oliver's temple suddenly swell up, clinging to the ugly raw.

"But I can't do that."I hate myself, but I'm determined to cling uglyly to my position as Commander of the Knights.Because it will be the only atonement I can do. "

And again, we speak of atonement.

We're on our way to Oliver's brother.

Oliver understands without daring to say anything.

Understand and tremble your body.

Which mouth do you say?

But that was a flash.

"The reason why I am moving as a dog of nobility and royalty remains the same from the day I lost Bermuda.I'm here to avoid humiliating the members of the regiment--your family's death again.So, even if it's Bermuda's younger brother's request, can't you just listen to it? "

In a word from Bernadette's heart, Oliver stiffens his body.

It was as if she pointed out that her words were unexpected.

"Originally, I wanted to crush the helpless knights who couldn't protect themselves."But some nobles and royals wouldn't allow it.Even if I were to resign from this position, I would only be able to appoint a replacement Knight Commander.A man with the breath of a filthy nobleman is appointed as the Commander of the Knights.That's why I dared to remain in the Knights.I had to stay. "

... but it was added that only Xenor wanted to get away from me.

And Oliver was more surprised by the words than anyone else.

"I had to protect it."Instead of Bermuda, this city is Bermuda. "

Immediately after that, the sky was covered with something black.It was a monster.

The limited [Recognition Inhibit] magic was dissolved and revealed.

There were too many monsters to count.

There were so many kinds of monsters. I was tempted to ask where I had gathered these monsters from.

However, when it came to Bernadette, there was no surprise about the change.

It was as if I knew from the beginning that there was something there.

"Alstead is going to kill even his people."

"People, people, kill me?

Unlike Julius and the others, Oliver's words triggered and cut through Oliver's margins.

Complicated.

I was confused and my eyes were blinded.

"The root of him is sacrifice."He who sacrifices will kill everything.Everything your brother tried to protect.In doing so, he is trying to show off his nobility.In fact, it was evidenced by the birds spreading overhead and the crowing sounds that could be heard.This is not a threat or anything. "

"...... That's not true."

When she noticed, the sound of the scabbard stopped, and Oliver, who was at a distance from Bernadette to escape, held his head down and spun words like words.

“You don't have to resent me.I remember being resented more than I was.That's why I have no intention of blaming it.No, but is that really all right, Oliver?Being in tune with Alsted means destroying everything my brother was trying to protect. "

"Ugh, come on. Shut up. Shut up. Silence, silence, silence, silence!!!He's the one who understands. He was the only one who understood me. "

He swung his sword violently.

The figure only appears to be a frivolous child who desperately denies the unacceptable.

If you understand, then why is your spiritual system magic hanging around you now?

It's like a person you can't trust.

Oliver was spinning words to endure a migraine headache, in response to what seemed to be the most natural question.

"I asked for it."

Did you ask for it?

Because I thought I couldn't kill you if I didn't.

"... to the extent that it does. That's why."

Get rid of mercy.

For Oliver, a pacifist and a man of the former Knights, Alstead's abilities were a good fit.

But is it because it is Bernadette who has already exchanged words with Lusas?

"You don't want to kill me, do you?"We and the filthy noblemen have no horns, no matter what. "

I notice it there.

So Oliver couldn't kill Julius that night.

There may have been a time when we could have killed him.

At that time, Oliver definitely dominated most of the time.

However, he would not have killed them if they had been wounded.He was going to kill me, but he couldn't.What Julius pointed out that night was not a lie or a mistake.

"But in reality, Alsted's men are going to make a" tragedy "called" sacrifice "by sacrificing even one of the people you wanted to protect, and use it as a mere threat."Is that all right? Will it be in tune with that?Still, do you call him the Understander? "

"I said no...!!" He's trying to change the world, unlike you!!This is the wrong world!! He is just like me, a man who knows the grief of having his family taken from him irrationally!!Don't say anything, Bernadette...!! "

Suffering to be taken. Sorrow.

Because he knows them, Alsted never goes the wrong way.

Oliver arranged his words so that he didn't doubt it.

Then, I thinned again and waved my sword to break the frustration.

One hit, one hit, accelerates and weighs more.

"-------- Gravity Control (Gravity) --------!!!"

The use of magic.

Bernadette's legs were slipped and crushed by the sword in a blow that created an unusual amount of power.

Eventually, Bernadette's body, defeated by the force being directed, was blown backwards.

"[Acceleration (Axel)]!!!"

But the attack was not over.

The angry eyes captured Bernadette, and Oliver used his magic to refill the distance.

"I think I know how Alsted feels.I want to punish the nobility. I want to change something.When I think about it, this means will be effective.So, this is correct. I think it's right.But this choice will do the worst.So, I think I'm right, but I'm wrong.What does it mean to get results at the expense of innocent people?What's the difference between the aristocratic statues you hate? "

"...... Shut up...!!!"

For a flash.

In a shrinking space, each other's good sparks are scattered.

Bernadette's ability to prevent an imminent blow no matter what her condition, when she is blown to pieces and her posture is broken, is terrifying.

“If Bermuda had been here, we would definitely have stopped it.So instead, I'll stop it. That's all. "

"Ahh, before I say my brother's name, ahhhhhh!!!!"

The sound of collisions stained with screams from the products is intensified and intensified.

Bernadette or Oliver.

It was an exchange that didn't end until someone died, but--

A bang echoed across the two of them.

Continued screaming and beast roar.

The intervention of those sounds brought the struggle to an abrupt end.

Alstead?

For Oliver, everything Bernadette says is unreliable.

That's why I didn't trust you at all.

From time to time, I hardly trusted any words in my heart.I think Alstead is right.He is the only comrade who empathizes with himself.

What kind of story did he get from Alsted?

What did he blow into, being a pacifist to such an extent?

... the fact that it was a lie was clear from Oliver's stunned figure.

"What are you doing?"What are you thinking, Alsted? "

A monster is raiding the city.

They're attacking people.

A fierce outpouring of violence against a people who can't even have the means to fight.

"That's what I prepared to punish the nobles... right?"

Why are you using it to attack the city?

Why are you attacking people?

I don't know.

Oliver doesn't understand.

That's why Oliver suffered from the difference between thoughts and reality that circulated in his brain, and the most headache he had ever had hit him.

"Ah, no, no, no, no, no!!This is a mistake.Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm sure Alsted's magic control is mad.That's all we had. That's what I'm talking about.Oh, I have to help. Alstead needs my help.You saved my life. You have to save him. "

Murmuring words with cloudy eyes.

So you're trying to protect yourself somehow.

However, there was no other way to say that the action was painful from Bernadette's point of view at the earliest.

In Oliver, Bernadette takes precedence over Alsted.

Eventually, Oliver, who was scattered with murderous intent, turned his back to go under Alsted.

And then I said, "Accelerate."

"Ah, wait, Oliver!!"

Bernadette's voice stopped her and Oliver rushed under Alsted.
