The Branded Female Fencer

"Alfi, are you ready!?

"It's done!

"Kazas, what about the horse!?

"It's pulling!

"Then we'll be right there! I'll do everything I can to get out of here, so get to me! It's the end of this cave to the east. It has about 600 km, but it runs in a day. Stay with me!

The horses owned by Aerial are not concurrent horses, because of the horses specific to the prairie. Their appearance is large, and neither speed nor endurance can be compared to horses outside the prairie. It would not be impossible to run in a single day, even at 600 km, but it is no different that the riders, taken together, are forcible forces. But no one disputed it.

"Aerie, about Faranx..."

"Don't say it now!

Aerial blocked Alphilis' words out loud. It's always unusual for a sober aerial.

"Don't say it now... please don't say it"

"... sorry"

Nobody had a word to say at the end of the day, and I lived for a month - after the spot where I lived more than seven years for Aerial.

And then a few hours later...

The rocks where Dragreo and Faranx were fighting were reshaping. One side is engulfed in flames, the rock floor melts like a candy worker, and the shape of the ground changes due to the collision between the two, and the fact that there are a number of holes like craters reminds me of an awesome clash.

The surroundings had already begun to darken, and heaven had seen starry skies full of heaven despite the stormy season. Now I would have seen a better starry sky if my surroundings hadn't burned with flames. But that's not good.

Two shadows stand at the heart of a burning flame. Needless to say, it's Faranx and Dragreo, only two surroundings have the flames quenched. Apparently, a lot of blood has put out the fire. And rolling arms on the ground, five.

"F. That's something you don't want to be old for... the limits of your health already, huh?"

Dragreo's arm is engulfing Faranx's body. I pulled the organs inside just like that. Falanx falls apart spitting a lot of blood.

"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Faranx stares with a blurred eye at Dragreo, who raises the ambition of victory. From its eyes the light is gradually lost.

"(Is it true that those who take their lives are human beings... and this is also some kind of accommodation? For myself, who had never stepped out of the prairie, it was man who influenced my life with something... Sister, but only this man... and)"

A green-haired girl floats behind Faranx's brain. When we met, the girl was only 8 years old. Young eyes who have at first stared at themselves with hate-burning eyes. Of course I returned many times instead of Faranx losing to a toddler, but the girl has pursued herself without giving up. When a girl's health runs out and she falls, she's been seen and done it. The sleeping face is exactly like an angel, and I remember seeing the girl made my mind feel better somewhere.

But I also thought that I would never be seen with the child's gentle eyes more than I was the enemy of the girl. The actually-awakened girl held a flame of vengeance in her eyes whenever she regained her strength and pointed a blade at herself.

After spending about a year chasing a girl and a strange life being chased, I accidentally followed her inside the girl. What I saw there was a fellow girl who was already dead. The girl remembers crying to collapse on the spot. I've never had a chest ache like that in Faranx.

Then the girl stopped coming to kill herself too much, though she would follow her trail. There was already no flame of hatred in the girl's eyes, but the light as a living person was also lost, as if she were a dead man. But all things remained guided by the wind - Faranx, who thought so, did nothing special to the girl.

The winter that year was exceptionally cold. I didn't feed much again. Usually we hunt for some prey by winter, build up storage and spend the winter, but even in the middle of winter that year we had to hunt. Even the Phalanx of the giant man was coming with him in the cold, crackling at the core, the human girl frozen.

The herself, the meadow demons, was concerned because of the lack of food. The hunt was extremely intense and the girl was caught up in it and badly injured. With the wind guiding, the weak are doomed to die - yes Faranx should have thought so, but the actions he was taking were completely separate.

Faranx turned the girl around and ran at full speed to the settlement where the fairies lived. Even his leg strength during the full season led him on a journey that would take half a day, in just a few moments. I don't even know how I did it. But for what it's worth, the girl took her life.

Then until the girl's health returned, Faranx continued to warm the girl up with his own nostalgia. He had no hesitation or regret in him, although he had no idea what he would be like to be a beast who knew nothing but battle and was the enemy of a girl.

A girl who wandered the dead line for nearly a week, but there was also treatment for the fairies, who survived safely. The girl's hair color had changed to brighter greenery, which turned out to be influenced by the fairies' darker colors.

And the girl liked it when she saw her long green hair, or smiled at Nicole and Faranx. It was as if that smile had been smiled upon by the prairie itself, and he instinctively understood that Faranx would never forget that moment for the rest of his life.

Then Faranx told her of Aerial's parents' will, and from that time on the two became parents and children. Faranx was bewildered, but realized that his days were going to be full.

How to take prey, how to walk in the prairie, where the nuts are, combat training. There was much to teach the girl, and the days went by like arrows. There are mountains of things that a human girl can't do, even if it can be done as it naturally is for Faranx. To be honest, Faranx remembered the difference (the gap), but he also never thought he'd like it. Because the smile that Aerial attracts when he's done well has raised his feelings to heaven as well.

The moment the running light came so far, Faranx's consciousness, which was falling apart and about to disappear, began to gather in one again.

"(Yes... I have to protect that smile. Not if you're sleeping here!

The light about to be lost from Faranx's eyes gradually begins to return.

"(Move, my body... there will still be something I can do!?

I can think of the faces of the warriors who used to come hunting themselves. They are supposed to be poor as a species genus, but they remind me that they fought a really great battle with themselves. Faranx thought it was depressing at first. When did he start paying respect to them, he realized he had himself in mind waiting to fight them.

Especially Aerial's parents were exceptionally strong. Only those two men, later and earlier, were able to keep fighting the Faranks all night in a head-on battle, including the other creatures in the prairie. There's only one thing those two best people wanted at death.

"Protect my daughter."

It was strange to Faranx whether it was more about people than it was about me at the time of death. But now I know how it feels.

"Ooh!"

Faranx stood with the scream. But there's only one arm already, and the bleeding is beyond the limit. My guts are sticking out, and my bones are all broken there. I wondered myself why I stood up.

"Huuuuuuuu!"

Faranx gathers the rest of his health and intimidates Dragreo. But before the intimidation, Dragreo had already noticed that the Phalanx had risen. Dragleo looks sincerely happy that Faranx has risen.

"Ha-ha-ha! You, you're the best! Best prey ever!!

"You're the... the strongest I've ever fought. You wanted to try it when I was strongest.... Shall I ask your name?"

"Name? What's the name? It's not important, it's not there! What matters, right now, which is stronger, which will survive... that would be the only natural dish that hasn't changed since everything was born!!?

Dragreo can roar. The surrounding rock bedrock collapses brittle with its roaring impact.

"It's a good way to look at what you've worn... but maybe that's what the beast is good for. Absolutely no more beastly than a beast's eagle..."

"WOOOOOOOOOO! A battle!!!!

"Come..."

Faranx waits leisurely for Dragreo to advance. No, I just had to wait. I no longer had the strength to move.

The moment Dragreo's right fist pierces Faranx's heart, Faranx holds Dragreo in one arm with all his strength remaining.

"Mmmm!?

"I didn't know we could even know the names of the last enemies to fight... I hear the rest of you did badly in your previous life. But we're gonna have hell hanging out with you!

[Fire of calamity, fire of anger, fire of redemption, fire of great sin against hell. The Fire of Nara, which burns God and ends all eternity. Burn down my enemies at the price of my soul]

"Nooooooo!?

Dragreo perceived the danger in the Phalanx chant. He tried his best to escape, but his arm, which had only one Phalanx, was frightening.

The chant started by Faranx is not just magic, it is like magic. It is magic that affects the land permanently if used. What Phalanx is trying to use is fire magic, but if used, this area will be a land that won't grow a single grass for hundreds of years to come.

It was the last forbidden thing for Faranx, who was born and raised in the prairie, and he didn't even intend to use it to die himself, but he realized that one Aerial was more important than all the prairies. I won't let this man go to his daughter at all costs. That was the only thing that dominated his actions.

[Be ashamed of yourself, roll over and let it flow. Become a stream and make your way]

"Let go. Yeah, yeah!

As if to undo Dragreo's scream, a flame of burning gathers around him and becomes a glimmer of flame and begins to spin around the two of them. Whether that looks like a giant flaming serpent tightening up two people or a flaming tornado wrapping them up.

[I, the world, will be turned into purgatory with the joy of the dead, burned by the Fire that will come through the road]

Furnace Heart Meltdown!

Dragreo tried to scream something, but the voice never reached the surrounding area. And Faranx himself begins to burn, and his body becomes like a flame, no magma. At the same time the ground on which the two stood also turns into a magma, so that as the flames gather around them, the earth on one side melts away as if it were hot butter.

Dragreo tries to escape, but he strikes two people so that the earth, transformed into a magma, will, and tries to push him inside the ground of the magma. The mass of the magma is awesome. After that, a magma that can push me like a big wave of uninterrupted storms drinks me without even a hint of dragleo.

Faranx, who saw Dragreo sink completely into the sea of magma, but his body was already engulfed in flames, and death would no longer be avoided. Shortly before that consciousness broke off, it was Aerial's - her own daughter's smile that floated behind Faranx's brain.

"(Aerial, dear daughter of the eagle... you weren't a lot of fathers... you couldn't do one fatherly thing to him. I've always thought I should have been human since I met you. But even with these eagles... I sincerely hope you will be happy...)"

When I thought about it and smiled, Faranx's consciousness disappeared into the flames.
