The Branded Female Fencer

Arnelia Church Raid, Part 8 - Children

"Did you do it?

"No... just before I hit it, I was defended by precautionary power. I was about to get my fist crushed. Plus, I'm flying back myself, so there's not much damage."

"Wet, persistent"

Manadil is right, in fact Osiria rises up in a swell and stands as if nothing had happened. And when he turned his eyes toward the Deep Green Palace, he walked out toward you.

"Let me go!

"... out of the way"

Osiria's on the ground, Dan! and stomped, the ground swirled and the ground, which could no longer withstand its load, began to beckon and sink and protrude.

"Ooh!?

"Are you twisting the ground with precautionary power?

Manadil thinks it's a hell of a force, but if you realize it, you don't see Osiria anymore. At the same time, Osiria appears in front of the Deep Green Palace. If you trample the ground there as well, the ground will now bulge and become as if it were a wall. Will it be about 5m high?

"This will buy you time... as per the meeting..."

Osiria niggered and disappeared again.

Dwong... gahhhhhhhh...

There was a sound of battle like a thunderbolt falling in the distance, but thank goodness the sound seemed gradually closer.

This is supposed to be the deepest place in the Deep Green Palace, but the sound of battle is getting closer and closer. The young children, such as Mirce and Thomas, are frightened when they hear the sound. It is exclusively Nellie's or Ruth's role to comfort them. Jake said he was going to see what was going on out there, and the samurai didn't even ask him to stop, and he left. The samurai is also a silent member, but Jake acted quickly besides his thoughts.

"Um, what?

"It's getting worse, isn't it?

"Don't worry. You said Jake was gonna be okay, didn't you?

"But I'm frightened - fuuuuuuuuu!

At last, Thomas cried. Children crying in chains when they hear that voice. Nellie and Ruth try to figure it out, but we want to cry ourselves. We both have tears, but then there was a woman who fluttered her head. He is the woman who was with him when he took refuge in this room. I thought you were someone in strange clothes like Nellie had never seen, but the people you're with are equally wearing belted clothes. Nellie thought he must be a great man because he was sitting there to be protected by the people around him.

Now the woman is giving me her head with a very gentle look. The light was shining on her very long black hair, and Nellie fell in love with it unexpectedly by the sight of being even divine.

"Sister, who...?

"My name is Poetry. What about you?"

"Nellie..."

"Yes... Nellie is a good girl, take care of everyone"

"Yeah, 'cause I'm the oldest of these"

"Really? But I'll take care of it later..."

That's how he sings the lullaby as he comforts the crying children one by one. Then the children cry.

"I don't know."

"Sister, you suck at singing"

"Lisa, hey, hey, hey, hey..."

"Shh, excuse me..."

Turning around, the children start saying very unsolicited things, and to Thomas, they wear Shino's breasts with their fingers. Poetry puts his hands on his cheeks as he turns bright red at the children's relentless penetration and Thomas' behavior.

"Thomas! You're rude, aren't you?

"Don't hang on to me, Ruth. You want to do it yourself."

"Bye, silly! No... well, a little..."

"Ruth's pervert!

"You haven't done anything yet!?

"We're kids, so you can always oit us."

"Thomas! Where did you learn those words!

"and let's just say Jake was there"

"Thomas! Wait!

"Oh, there's nothing I can do about Poetry..."

"Shit, Master Poetry..."

Those are the children that Lisa raised. Looks like this woman named Poetry was a little overloaded to take care of the children out of Miriazal's control. The children are sitting on Shino's lap or pulling long hair to play freely. The accompaniment of Shino is also grated by many events. When the children start rumbling, it doesn't even seem to be in the hands of the Dark Green Palace maids. There is no shame in taking a man by the hand. But there was no doubt that it was the benevolence of this poem that the children stopped crying.

Jake, who had left the room around that time, was making a small run through the Deep Green Palace. It was Jake who was entrusted with the children and I knew perfectly well that I couldn't do anything when I left, but I had a bad feeling about it. At times like this, honestly Jake decides to follow his instincts.

But I was running without knowing what the hell I was supposed to do. Instinct screams, we have to run now. If we don't run here, we'll miss something important. And his legs, which he had moved for that matter, were easy to wiggle his mouthless hand, a forged warrior. Jake didn't do that consciously.

But is Jake's instinct telling the truth, or is it another fateful hoax? He unwittingly hid himself in the sound of a sword ripping open the air from the front. Someone is fighting.

"(Is that... Alberto?

From across the hallway, I saw Alberto coming after a childish figure. But there can't be a normal child, I see a black vortex with something like a strange face around it. Jake thought, "How disgusting," but the fight itself seems to be dominated by Alberto.

"(And Alberto... awesome! That's what Alberto's all about!

Jake's hand unwittingly enters Alberto's sword, which destroys even the columns and walls. And as Alberto doubles the boy, Jake clutches his fist small while hiding. But... Jake intuited that something was wrong. Alberto looked down at the boy as he was, but when he felt he shouldn't stay like this, he rode himself out and Jake was screaming.

"Not yet, Alberto!

Someone heard Alberto screaming. I wasn't caught off guard, but I take a defensive position reflexively. But that was the right answer. I remember some strong impact on my sword and can retract it for about a few meters. I would have been totally blown away if I hadn't taken a defensive stance.

"Huh... I thought I'd be somewhat alarmed if it went straight to two. Who, who screamed extra?

I can hear voices from Doom, who should have turned into two truths. My body, which is straight in two, rises up loosely, until the blood that should have splashed all around me goes back to normal.

"I even made a splash of blood... and it was supposed to be a real famous act."

"Are you immortal?

Doom boldly answered Alberto's inquiry.

"What do you think? Well, I'm pretty sure he won't die in about two. And you're a big swordsman, I'll admit it honestly. I'll fly on top of it and cruelly kill you."

"Try it. If you can't do it in two, you'll have to run out of commas."

"Can you... and before you do that"

Doom looks at Jake slightly on the side. Jake is inadvertently embarking on himself and his gaze intersects Doom.

"What's your name?

"... you need to name it?

"Huffle, you're being discreet. That's fine. But you've often found out I'm not dead. Why not?"

"Somehow."

"Somehow... huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Doom laughs out loud. Jake sees the situation with a suspicious face, Alberto puts up his sword and sees a slashing gap, but Doom doesn't see a gap despite talking to Jake.

"What are you laughing at, you creep?"

"You're a reluctant kid. Did you somehow crush my operation? Funny, but... you deserve to die!

When Doom puts his hand over Jake, the shape of the evil spirits becomes like a vortex, flying towards Jake. Its thickness is not much, but the momentum is much faster than what we unleashed on Alberto earlier.

"Jake!"

Alberto's cry was also so fast that he couldn't make it, that a mass of evil spirits struck directly where Jake stood.
