Star Slashing Swordsman

Fifty-one words.

Silence descending on the field.

It lasted a second, two seconds, and I opened my mouth to say no to Zenoa's remarks.

"... is that what you said after peeking into my head"

I dare you to choose that word.

If you can see through to Fiore, it was quick. Ask therefore.

For that self-centered reason, I have an ex-con headed to Minaura. I wonder if that's what you said after you found out about my thought circuit.

"Yes.... the reason is simple and clear. Because the man you call the Wizard Hunter is a collector.

"" Collector "…?"

"Yes. You've already seen it, haven't you? The moment the man was dealing with the magic of" perception inhibition. "" Collector "means that if you kill a wizard, you will be able to rob the magic that the wizard was dealing with.

"... its magical flaws"

"I can't handle magic collected in parallel at the same time. That's all I know about flaws."

In short, for example, it is not possible to renew the magic that has already been collected while developing the "recognition inhibition".

If you want to do so, you will not be able to move on until the "recognition inhibition" is lifted once.

I mean, I guess that's what it is.

"That's why I want you to step aside for this one. Please, don't increase your opponent's means of attack (...) I want you to"

"... you think I'm gonna get killed?

"Fight for sure. Besides, you can never poke a swordsman like you with a flaw in perception inhibition.

Like me.

I'm just a little caught up in that choice of words.

"For those of you who are entrusted to a battle based on instinct, you can't lose five senses, no matter what."

With that said, Xenoa stretches her right hand to her right ear. And while claiming your ears.

"" The defect in perception inhibition is the magic that is acting on hearing. In other words, if you throw away your hearing in some way, it will not have any effect.... but "the wizard hunter" man collects magic besides "perception inhibition". Even if "where the perception inhibition is sealed, it doesn't hurt or itch for him."

"Even if we seal the cognitive inhibition, we have the next hand.

Even if we seal it, there's still another hand.

So, "The Wizard Hunter Man and I are too incompatible. If you fight, Zenoah is definitely pointing out that you will only be killed and collected the magic in your hands.

"... so, what do you want me to do then?

"So he wants you to take my hand"

…………

Just a little silence, I think.

I haven't heard everything yet, but as far as the magical abilities are concerned, that man should still be hiding all sorts of means.

Even though, the situation is plagued with one magic called "perception inhibition".

Sure, it could be hard to beat.

If I had calmly overlooked the status quo, I might have laughed that even if it were me, it would not be possible.

But.

Turn your back because it's dangerous.

I decide I can't win, so I change my path.

That's no good (...).

There could still have been room for compromise for other reasons. But the only assumption is, no matter what. I'm the only one who can't admit it.

Never turn your back for such a lopsided reason more than once you have named yourself the 'Star Slasher'.

It's important to think things through calmly.

Force analysis is also important.

But that's just the "important" category. It can't be a decision maker for my code of conduct.

Hence ----.

"Talk, I get it. But I'm sorry. That's an impossible consultation."

I refused.

"... may I ask why?

"It's a simple story. In the first place, I don't trust that wizard hunt myself, and he's even willing to kill Lilea. Good reason. Then we'll have to kill him.

Lilea is one of my benefactors.

I owe you so much for all the care you've given me, and most importantly, I don't want you to die.

This is too much of a reason to just fight.

"Besides, if you peeked at my head, you'd already know. What I think is a battle I can't win, but it's superior. Dead and naturally, that's superior too. It is beyond the walls that lie ahead of such recklessness that it makes sense for the first time. Because that's the idea. Hey, I knew I was lucky (...)"

Once upon a time, in Minaura, a gaze very similar to the gaze directed from Fiore is pointed.

It was a familiar eye with a suspicion of my sanity if I couldn't understand it.

But even if it wasn't me and the red-haired swordsman, Shiva, who was on this scene, I'm sure he would have said the same words.

And you should definitely say it.

You're too jealous! Take your place! and.

"Ma, ah, this is a thought that my father, Sophia, no one and he understood in any way, except for just one. So I'm twice as conscious that this is funny."

Before that, Xenoa's one-eyebrow, which was piercing the tannic surface, jumped slightly. Then why is she suing me in silence?

"But once I've admired it, I can't help but reach for it, no matter what obstacles I'm hit by. I move my hands and feet toward what I want and run. Because I'm such an irremediable fool."

As a lifetime goal, enough to set up a 'star slayer' man. A man who longed for a great fool who devoted his whole life to just one promise is once again a big fool who can't be saved.

"... Yep. That's right. I think you're an unsaveable fool."

Xenoa thinks I have no chance of winning. So for her, what I do is not brave, but just barbaric.

"Ha ha."

After taking a few seconds to taste the words directed at me, I laugh. He smiled uncontrollably and broke his face to affirm that he was exactly right.

"------… If we were to protect you, would that answer change?"

"Yeah, it's definitely going to change. If I did, I'd throw away the reason I'm holding it right now. I'm sure this is what happened." If so, I will fight to reward you for protecting Sophia and the others. "

In other words, there is no such thing as a technique of exhausting the earliest words and stopping at a time when even one serious reason has arisen.

"This life is only once for me. The opportunity to patrol, just once. Then it would be a stupid imitation to take that away from you for a reason to fight, wouldn't it? Especially in my case."

I can't believe you didn't reach out for a good reason. That's all I can say, idiot.

They say you can't win.

That's right. Even I think so more than I did. Because I think so, but it is therefore a wall (...).

It's just that they told me the fact that I can't beat you at that point.

Then you can go beyond it. It's a simple story that even children can understand. This is a story where you just have to win beyond your limits.

I didn't even see a moment's vision of a 'star slayer' man present in my memory losing, and there's no reason to back off.

"As long as I have the longing (fever) in my chest, I'll keep reaching out. Live by lying to the longing emotions in your heart. I'm not a clever person enough to accept such a life."

The memories of the star slaughter, which still shines brightly, cannot be forgotten or erased, nor can they turn their backs, nor can they be forgiven.

As it is, there is only one way to accept it.

"Thanks for the info. Thanks to you, we're going to be able to fight a lot more seriously than we did then."

You couldn't even let me stand on the mound. I get up, telling you that in memory of what happened a few hours ago.

"--------I think now you know that Fiore threw a spoon too"

When I left, I heard Xenoa talking to herself like that, but I pretended I couldn't hear her, lowered my head, and then left the room behind.
