The Branded Female Fencer

To the Marsh, Part 2 - Change

"This... shouldn't be! Alphilis is in danger!

"What, them?!?

"No, it's a bunch of warcraft! Perhaps the woods were burned down, and the dwellings were pursued."

"Damn, at a time like this"

"I'll show you. Hurry!"

Lisa took the lead and Miranda and the others rushed out in a hurry.

Not long before that. Alphilis, who left Miranda and the others, had come to the riverside in the woods that Lisa had searched for. Alphilis walked in like there was nothing there, but when he came by the river to make sure there was no danger, he fell to collapse.

"Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, yes..."

There was still a curse on his right arm, which Alphilis concealed as he climbed onto his horse. Plus the curse is starting to spread on my left arm.

"Was it impotent, albeit to distract the lifeless, just"

Alphilis actually felt like someone was watching him somehow all the time from the middle of his journey. It wasn't until I released the curse that I was certain, but I was aware of the humans who had managed to break into the lifeless junction from outside. I didn't know how powerful it was, but I imagined it was probably Miranda's escort, and I entrusted my hopes to spare no effort to distract the lifeless. Alphilis also knew that what worked out was exactly what happened with the heavenly servitude, but that either way he kept fighting like that and had no winning eyes.

But even so, the attempt to free the second curse made Alphilis pay a great price.

"My master told me not to let you go, no matter what... Grr!

When Alphilis puts his right arm on the water, steam gushes up as if he dipped the burnt iron in the water. But there was no noise, and strangely, the water was discolored black from the area where Alphilis put his arm on.

Obviously, the water is contaminated, but the alphilis of the day gives a distressed look, like it's not the other way around.

"Somewhat better, though. This... sucks, Kamo."

Alphilis has been desperately trying to hold off the curse for a while now, but it never fits. This was previously similar to the state she was in when she rammed her magic in the village where she was born. There was Aldrius then, but now there's nobody. We have to do something about it ourselves.

"If only we could at least have a ritual to seal the curse."

"(You don't have to...)"

"Who!?

At that time, there was a clear reply to the voice Alphilis made to squeeze his breath constantly as well. To that too dark and sweet voice, Alphilis accidentally shouted out, no matter how painful his arm was.

"Who is it? Show yourself!

"(dull. I don't like it)"

"Ku, cowardly!

"(Which is cowardly...)"

The voice echoes from nowhere, as if the woods themselves were to roar. Alphilis pales to much creepiness, but that's also why she's not frightened.

But the voice goes on, as if to bruise her like that.

"(It is you who are cowardly... have you forgotten about me?

"So who is it!?

"(You used to feel so good. Have you forgotten? superiority with superior power over others, conquest that crawls others with power, and achievement when you kill that man)"

"Ah..."

Behind Alphilis' brain, the face of the wrecked soldier who, at a young age, slaughtered his magic by rampaging it. The man's face was cloudy with fear. But why?

"Why, now"

"(Did you forget? I'll soon forget the inconvenience. You killed that man."

"No, no! I was in an accident."

"(No, it wasn't an accident. You killed while you were having fun. I don't mind the man begging for his life, first he slashed off his left hand, then he smashed his right leg. So I can't stand up, crawling like a potato bug and running, sticking a bunch of blades up that guy's back...)"

"Stop!

Alphilis stood up and exclaimed.

"I didn't do that!!

"(No, you did it! It's a thought!

Suddenly my voice gets stronger. Alphilis' head is reminded that her young girlfriend will hunt down the man precisely. Slash off your left arm, crush your right leg, and strike down on your back many blades made of ice and earth as well as knives, deliberately to take off the steeple. When I saw my face, which was reflected all around, that young Alphilis was made of water from the ground, and no man's blood, the face looked like it was really fun. Yeah, still like my face on the water.

"Eh."

"(Thought?

Alphilis in the water. Unexpectedly, Alphilis touches his face to confirm, but obviously he's not laughing. Yet I am in the water.

"(That's what you were originally like. I can't wait to screw someone else over with my strength. People's happiness is jealous. I can't stand to see blood)"

"Oh, my God."

But the voice of Alphilis, who disagrees, is also gradually losing power. If the sight I thought earlier is true, what a cruel person am I? A human being named himself rocks, which Alphilis has never suspected before.

"(That happens. Yikes. 'Cause what did you think when you first saw Miranda? You're so beautiful. With your knowledge. Thin and clean, even though he's top notch as a warrior. You weren't jealous that you weren't like me being big and making fun of you a lot? Yet I was a little hard to look at, so I blew up a tragic heroine. I have a hard eye, too... when you asked her about her past, you didn't think so at all?

"That's not true!

"(So what about Lisa? I heard on the journey, but she already had a fiancée, didn't she? You're an orphan, but you're sloppy - you feel happy. Even though the little ones admire you a lot, by contrast, you are no longer heavenly alone. Preceded by those abandoned by their parents and picked up. There's no sign you can be a lover. No?)"

"That's not true."

"(Even Fenna is unhappy now, but if you think about it, she's royal. The prince will pick you up even if you leave him alone. Everyone around me stays with Fu. You can't be a civilian princess... what's the difference until this unfortunate. After all, if you were born different, would it make such a difference?

"I don't..."

"(Even Nia. It was all about the fight until a while ago, and I should have had no connection to love. She wouldn't have wanted it particularly for herself. Yet sometime I made a lover. And they don't think of me. You are so intrigued by love inside, but your lover has never put aside, kissed, or even held hands. Aside from being liked by others. This difference is too unequal. I wonder if heaven hates you.)"

"That... thing..."

Finally, the alphilis collapsed naggingly. There are tears streaming down my cheeks at some point. Earlier words Alphilis thought somewhere in his head, but the thought that drove him to the corner. Negative emotions that I tried not to think of because they were my friends. I've picked it up and gathered that this voice had even forgotten Alphilis himself.

"... what the hell are you!?

Alphilis screamed. It could have been closer to screaming than screaming.

"Did you see my, my heart... my heart? I don't think so. No!

"(No, I thought so)"

"How do you know?"

When Alphilis waved up his fist to punch him in the face, the water formed the shape of his hand and grabbed its arm.

"Hi..."

"(I'm you)"

"It's a lie!

Alphilis' face emerges from the black, dirty water. When his face dulls, he seems to enjoy himself.

"(I'm not lying)"

"You fake, you still say it!

"(That's a lot of words. Fake is one way or another, not you)"

"What?"

When I heard that word, I accidentally lost my power from Alphilis' body to so much surprise, but for a moment I tried to hear back what it meant. There was a sound of something stepping on a tree branch right around the corner. When Alphilis looked in that direction reflexively, a long-necked chicken-like creature with big fangs was staring at him. And not all in one.10, no, there's more.

"Warcraft!

"(Ugh, that's a pinch of absolute fate)"

"It's not funny. Get your hands off me!

"(Fine, but... you still put up with it?

"What?

An alphilis of black water caresses the cheeks of the alphilis.

"(You don't have to put up with it anymore)"

"What does that mean?"

"(Keep your instincts, kill them. If your life was in danger, you said Aldrius would use a curse, right?

"Is that right...? Muggle!"

What a mouthful of water Alpha Reese gave Alpha Reese before he could finish hearing the words. Surprised Alphilis didn't have time to resist, but before that, it was no match to move one as if imprisoned by strange magic and charm.

Already nearby, the Warcraft were approaching with their covetousness, smelling the alphilis, and they were about to make a rule as prey. But as the water alpha leash returns to just water and creates a puddle on the ground, the alpha leash rises loosely. Where the Warcraft opened its mouth wide in an attempt to round such an alphilis from its head, its saliva rested on Alphilis' hair. Moments are more killer than they were when they activated the curse from the Alphilis.

"... what are you doing, you're filthy. In the midst of a low-level warcraft, are you going against this me? You deserve to die."

Alphilis' eyes glow brightly. There was an unusual glow and heat in its eyes.
