Sword of the Philosopher

a distant goal

Train with Sofia as usual after breakfast... even though it's been less than a few days since the training started, it's been a long time.Nevertheless, this exercise probably lasted until the time of battle with the Star God... Besides, it got here quickly, but it was quite difficult from here, so the current situation seemed to be somewhat stepping in.

Now you can think of it as a rescue phase to move on.

And Garc told us to keep training.

You don't have to hurry.Seeing it in my eyes, it's progressing steadily. "

"I hope so...."

"To be honest, I was ready for months if I succeeded in moving to this stage.If you look at it, it's too good a result. "

The gaze of García was much warmer.

Hmm, I don't need to be here until we reach the next stage.Let's just say we're somewhere else. "

"What are you doing?

"There's something we need to do besides defeat the Stargods... Lord Leon and the others."

García speaks with a heavy voice.

You don't have to worry about this.Lord Leon and the others must focus on you. "

"Then sweeten your words....."

The arrow we responded to, Garc, disappears.The rest of us continue our training in constant difficulty.

"... does Sofia hear anything about what Garc and the others do?

I'll turn to her.In contrast,

"I'm not doing anything... but I think I'm doing a lot with Mr. Envelope."

"I've organized the battle against the star gods, but now the main character is someone other than humans."

The Garku spirits have trained me and Sofia, and Devils is investigating the underworld... which means the angels are moving.And at the heart of the study of the star gods is the former fallen angel... what a shame to think about it again.

"Well, the battle with the Star God will be led by humans... so I guess we should keep our wisdom alive right now."

That's right.

When it's a final game, let your friends work hard... and we'll even continue our training...

"I can't see the end..."

"That's right...."

By the way, I started in the morning and spent more lunch... but I was told there was no need to hurry, so let's do it slowly.

"Hmm, I barely took a break from eating, so why don't you take a break?"

"Okay."

Breathe. I noticed a lot of fatigue.It's a body that doesn't feel tired no matter how much you fight, but it's tough this time around.

I've been doing things like never before, and the progress of my work is really cowhide... It was a similar form of battle and resonance with fallen angels, but somehow, I don't have any response this time.

I have no choice but to continue to believe García's words, but... that's why I'm taking a break.When I entered the cafeteria, I found a tight person.

"... what's wrong?

It was... Lise who was lying on the desk.

"What happened?

"... I'm just tired from training."

And she answered with her face raised.

"How are you two?

"I'm struggling because I can't help myself, but Garc says I'm on my way."

"I see. It's tough because it's hands-on..."

"What about you?

"This is the existence and sparring created by the spirits."

Oh, Sparling... you're taking care of me and Sofia.Maybe it's one of Garc's things.

"Assuming the battle against the Star God..."

"Enemy... what kind of form is that?

"In the meantime, it's human.But it's really embarrassing, and at the moment, we don't have any teeth. "

I can't stand my teeth... I'm sure the members of the organization have enough power to be warriors, but they still can't win.

"I'm fighting around highly skilled members like Romilda...."

And Lizzie looked at the side.Turning to her, she saw Romilda drinking tea.

"I have the ability to imagine, but I can't win no matter how many people I play with."

"... I'm checking, but what are you fighting for?

"Buy time to get Leon and the others to the core of the Star God."

"Ah, I see...."

"That's an assumption, so you don't have to win... but you need to buy time.That's why I'm training to keep fighting..... "

It's supposed to be the star god, so it's definitely strong.

"Because it's human, I can still cut it..."

"I see... if you can earn time, will you achieve your goals?

"We're still holding them all down, but the ultimate goal is to stop them alone.I don't know how many enemies will show up. "

"... in the meantime, they're going to tell me to stop multiple bodies."

"Maybe you want me to do that."

Reese took a breath and looked up at the ceiling.

"We have learned about the existence of the Star God, but... even the existence created by the spirits as an assumption is not enough to train at all if it is strict."

"... in time?

"The Spirit said we'd make it."

I don't know what to do... I'm kind of worried, but Lise and the others seem motivated, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

"Romilda is a powerful weapon, so it's probably too early to respond."

"I see. Capabilities are enough, and the essential problem is we still don't have enough combat experience."

"Experience....."

Her abilities were eye-catching, and she played a central role in defeating the Apostle of the Star God by resonance.But surely, there are still many things that are not enough in terms of combat.

That said, we didn't have the idea of taking the initiative to gain combat experience... well, there's nothing we can do about it.Let's leave it to Garc and the others.

Sofia approaches Romilda and starts talking.I'll sit there opposite Lise and have a cup of tea.

"I'll tell you a little more... but the only thing I can tell you about the status quo is about the Star God."

"He's not even out there."

"... I'm looking for something to change my mood about..."

"Ah, then... there's one thing I want to ask you."

And Lizzie turned to me with a smile.
