Sword of the Philosopher

means of masking the difference in force

"Are we done here?

Fallen angel Anverate asks. I was usually disoriented in heaven, but since it is a real-world form of training, I am now in full open mode.

And the people around... they're all down or on their knees. Exactly. Dead bodies.

"Oh, are you done over there?

Have you detected any signs? Anverate is turning his neck. This one shrugged his shoulders,

"Well, make it a little easier... I tried the fusion with intermediate magic and it destroyed the wall"

"Well, it's also... the building is a lot stronger, maybe more powerful than I thought"

I look unexpected even with her.

"That didn't happen between angels, but I wonder if humans change with each other. Or that you two are compatible."

"... what you didn't explain was that you didn't really understand"

"That's why I've never taught humans before either. I have no choice."

"... I'm training and I'm not experiencing any problems or anything, but no side effects or anything?

"It's okay because that's not the technique. If you're just going to say one thing, there's a chance that you'll practice too much fusion magic and have a habit of doing it the normal way."

"... be careful not to."

If we master new technologies, naturally, we'll have problems with them… be careful.

"So, Anverate. Is the battle over?

"Why don't you ask someone on their knees about that?

Transfer your gaze. At the same time, Eina stood up as soon as possible.

"Is this the level of a fallen angel?"

"You can't beat Rostaldo if you seem to lose to me... well, you don't have to win because the purpose is to buy time."

So she shrugged her shoulders.

"As things stand, it's hard to be a wall player."

"... So you're saying the operation is impossible?

"You don't have time, and you're trying to say it's impossible to open it like this... right? It's too early to decide."

A grin that made you have inclusions.

"Shall we look back at the earlier battle? Seems like a time saver, but it's foolish to turn to a fallen angel."

"That's why I set you up while I put in some restraint."

It was Quoto who told him. He was down, but he gets up slowly.

"After a meeting in advance, I felt like using Mr. Serga's magic as an axis to restrain me, Eina and Mr. Dietzsche..."

"First of all, you can't call it restraint. In the first place, a towed attack means no more towing than there is a historical difference in magic power."

"The usual way of doing things first."

"Right. The output is always maxed, so it's a big premise to be ready to crush Rothald."

Eina and the others are breathtaking... and here Anverate asks Quoto a question.

"Considering the power of magic, with Mr. Serga on the axis, what happened to Romilda? It wasn't very noticeable though."

"In addition to her ability to use magic immediately, she's sharp. I asked him to respond to your movements."

Eina answers. And Anverate groaned, "I see,"

"This was due to the consequences."

She looks at her left hand. If you look closely, your clothes around your arms were slightly damaged. It just seems to have been made by magic, and when you wave your arms, it is repaired lightly.

"This blow could have hurt if it had totally hit me. But I don't know, personally, what would it be like to put her in a close position instead of attacking her?"

"Do you have a plan?

"I don't understand your abilities in detail, so I can't give you that many opinions. Based on the feeling we just fought, it's still not a good idea to turn to the guards. I'd rather be just as good as I think I'll lose at the time I take it."

That being said, she put her arms together.

"You may think that if you sacrifice yourself… that is, if you become a shield, but if you lose your power, you won't be able to buy time. Plus, if we get pushed into Rothald, we'll be breaking through at this rate."

"How far does a full-fledged attack work?

Question of Serga. Then Anverate laughed again.

"Aside from Mr. Luon and Mr. Sophia, who can definitely scratch Rostaldo... Romilda and maybe two of Mr. Serga? But, for example, I think Eina and the others can do enough to fortify their weapons and stuff."

"Well, Mr. Devals will work with you."

My opinion... it's just protective gear right now, but we need our help in the showdown, and I think we need some help.

"If we could get some weapons early, we'd love to try them."

"Right. When I ran into Rostaldo, I made some analogies to his magic barriers. I can't say for sure if that's exactly what it's all about, but if someone other than Mr. Luon and Mr. Sophia can break through with it... you'll be on guard as someone who won't be insulted"

"Let's start by making them recognize who they're supposed to defeat."

Dietzsche gets up. As she gently turned her shoulders,

"We had a policy of stopping time, but it was a mistake, and we had to destroy Rostaldo."

"That sort of thing. Well, it's time for lunch, and let's just get this far for now."

Extinguishes. Anvelate, who changed to a common mode rather than a fallen angel, stretched.

"I'm just taking a little break."

"... one thing, I want to ask"

So Eina opened her mouth.

"Do you think we can do our part in this fight?

"Powerfully, for example, it's hard to carry out a mission alone. As far as you're concerned, there's gonna be some discontent."

Eina's mouth is tightly tied. She's definitely getting stronger too, but still the difference with me and Sophia is historical... no, even considering we're also increasing technology and all that, the difference could even be widening.

"I can understand how sorry you are. But don't push it. Perhaps you will be involved in an important battle in the future. I don't know if that's what Mr. Leon and the others asked me to do, or if it's voluntary."

Anverate saw this one with Chirali.

"Good luck not only imitating leaving the front in this battle. There's a way. We can build a means to counter Rothald in the short term, including simple reinforcements such as weapons."

"... is that certain?

"Yes, it is. Although it is true that there is a difference in power... you fought the Demon King, a desperate being with so much magic, and his men, the Demon Nation, didn't you? How have you fought against an overwhelming opponent? If you remember that, you'll see your own answer."

- As for me, honestly, it was like a gobble. Only the continental collapse magic that the Demon King was trying to use, though, was defeated with the help of the Divine Spirits.

What I couldn't do alone was dealt with by cooperation... and if the Demons and others with different powers are the opponents, even Sofia has dealt with them by technology, collaboration, etc. I can't make the difference more than being human. In the end, by something that overshadows those forces, we have to win.

And that, Eina should have also experienced in the battle against the Demons and others... then she nodded deeply.

"Ok...... maybe I was in a bit of a hurry too. Against the force, this one has to be matched."

"Looks like you got a cold head. Well, we'll do the same this afternoon, so give it a try."

Nodding together to the words of Anverate - that expression was regarded as a strong will for everyone to succeed in their task.
