The Branded Female Fencer

"Claw, I wonder...?

In response to Alphilis' probable questioning, the closet turned straight to her.

"Alpha Reese, as a result of serious thought... I still can't go with you right now."

"Well..."

The alphilis dripped. My colleagues seemed to have heard the conversation, and each showed the colour of discouragement. Seeing how it goes, the closet answers with a sigh.

"Talk to the end, Alphilis."

"Huh?"

Alphilis looks up.

"I said it in the sense that 'I can't do it now'. You can't just ignore the master who left because of Snowfield and follow me to Alphilis?

"Bye."

"Oh. As soon as your master returns, I'm going to ask if I can go to Alphilis"

"Really!?

Alphilis was hugging the closet with less joy. The closet is small, so he couldn't take the Alphilis progression and dressed to be knocked down behind him. And naturally, the closet suffocates with the chest of the alphilis.

"Now Claw is one of us!

"Ku, bitter..."

"If it's already clawed, it's lit up! Are you happy and you can't even speak up?

"Ah, Alfi! Then my two dances!

Seeing how it was, Aerial, dying in the same situation, rushed in to stop it.

And then after that, since the closet got her breathing ready.

"Hmm."

"Oh, I'm sorry. Claw... if I did, I'd be stuck."

"Killed in a shake, it's not a hoard."

"I'm reflecting..."

When he saw the alphilis shrink, the closet smiled bitterly.

"Well what. It's up to your master to give you permission, so I can't say anything about all this. I don't know how long the regiment will last, and I hope you won't wait for me slowly."

"I'm always welcome!?

"... right"

Closess said it nicely and stood up, but if she didn't, she was really going to keep going down the mountain and follow Alphilis. It is a closet that clutches its fists in uninterruptedly, as it endures something.

And once again, a line that keeps walking in the snowstorm. When I noticed, the snowstorm was slowly subsiding, to the point where the snow was clearly falling. The snowstorm zone seems to have fallen out. The snowstorm healed and I realized for the first time that it was already night around. The blizzard didn't give them a clear view, so the Alphilis didn't really understand the sense of time because they were walking just looking at the back of the closet.

They just froze in an instant to the trees around them because of the cold coming all at once. Trees turned into ice reflect on the pine lights of the Alphilis and sparkle. The world was surrounded by silence, except for the footsteps and exhalation of the Alphilis and the others, whether animals and warcraft were also trembling in holes in the cold, respectively.

"If you go through this valley, it won't snow anymore"

"Heh..."

The Alphilis and the others were still guided by the closet, along a narrow path about the size of a few horses. There is little wind, and we continue along a path of gentle snow.

"Okay, we're out."

"Wow..."

"Heh..."

The end where the Alphilis and the others left through the narrow road was a chopped cliff. The bottom of the cliff is colored in pitch black and you can't see exactly what's there. I guess the altitude is still quite high enough to look down the mountain under your eyes.

"If you're from a mountain you can see over there, you'll be able to get down Pilebos without a day. Well, since there's only a white moon and a blue moon, can you see the brightness in people far away?

"... sure"

Good eye Aerial confirms. I did see something like a bright light. Is that where the city is?

"But how are we going to get there? There's no way to get to the mountains, is there?

"Right. You see a mountain as low as a rock shelf on the way, but you're not gonna tell me to jump, are you?

"F. I won't say such impotence, I am. Let's walk."

That's how the closet walks out into the air with nothing.

"Claw? Danger!

I was stepped out into the air with nothing in my closet leg. And they thought the closet would fall under the cliff, the next moment.

"Ah... me?

The closet was walking as if there was nothing in the air.

"Why..."

"Huff, the white moon will be out soon. You'll see."

And soon, when the white moon comes out of the shadow of the clouds, one side becomes bright at the same time. Then, surprisingly, a bridge of ice appeared at the foot of the closet.

"It's"

"I formed it with sorcery. You've been walking up here forever, haven't you? Here."

Ahead of what the closets showed, we saw a brilliant bridge of ice. If it's wide, it won't be even 3m. The Alphilis and the others will have been walking on it for a long time. Of course, there would have been a lot of real land, but the Alphilis were unaware of it because it was covered with snow from the edge they made. Aside from Lisa, of course, it is.

"Wow!

"Lisa, were you aware?

"Of course. I was surprised when I first noticed. But can Miranda walk dignified when she hears you upside down in the air if you step off the road for about two steps?

"Hmm, that could be hard."

"Isn't it? I thought Claw didn't dare say anything for the same reason."

That's how the closets lure the Alphilis and the others to the ice bridge.

"Come on, let's go for lunar walks and spills."

Closess laughed boldly, invincibly and pleasantly.

And the line was walking through the air with nothing, relying precisely on ice bridges. The ground should be far down, but I can't see anything at all. And the same is true of the sides, and they are frightened by the breeze that blows from time to time. Just like that. Did Closes guess she stood, deliberately coarsely configuring the surface of the ice bridge and making it non-slip?

Furthermore, the bridges will be structured about 10 m in front of the closet. It was as if one bridge after another were being built to match her walking speed. Walking the place loosely are the closets leading and the alphilis walking in parallel. And it is about Utility with wings, Gwendorf, Ilmatal, Emerald. Miranda and Lisa have roughly progressed, and their faces are blue whether they are even afraid of Aerial. He's holding the horse's reins, so he still manages to stay calm. Larna is going along with clinging to such an aerial. And the maple...

"Maple, your knees are laughing, right?

"Ha, ha, no high ground..."

"It's just as good as there was."

Lisa is shuddering, but this height is unusual. Even a person whose heights are fine would not be a hoarding thing.

Of that, only Alphilis could afford it.

"Mommy! I just missed you."

"All right, here I come! There you go."

"Kehahaha!

While Alphilis holds Irmatal, he circles around, and when he does well in a place that's only about 3m wide, the rest of us think.

"How can you do that..."

"Fools and Alphilis like high places, Miranda. Or, big women are either dull or dull. If you're a normal human being, I thought a maple-like reaction would be normal."

"Hmm, what about that maple?

"Ko, I lost my hips..."

"... that's hectic, that's"

Maple was losing his hips. Well, Lisa suddenly followed me from behind and threatened me, so I can't help it in a way. At that time Maple muttered, "I leaked a little bit," etc.

Around that time, Alphilis, who heads off and carries on with his shoulders Illumatal, walks happily talking to the closet.

"Claw's magic is amazing. I can't believe we're building bridges out of ice."

"Not really. The artistry you can do because you have several conditions in place. It was a snowstorm, and it's my favorite around here, because I've walked the field many times to get used to me. Sorcery is easy to form. Besides, they also let the low mountains along the way form the foundation of witchcraft and help build bridges. I can't do this kind of magical imitation without getting ready."

"Yeah. But this sight is beautiful."

Alphilis looks up at the white and blue moon, which takes place in the middle of the night sky. The blue moon can be seen all year round, without filling, and does not emit much light. If we are to hide in the clouds, the surrounding area is synonymous with total darkness.

In contrast, the white moon fills with a cycle of approximately 20 days. And he doesn't show up at all for about 7 days. When there is no white moon, there will be more darkness, so crime will increase, and demons and warcraft will be supposedly active. It is mainly the white moon that has to do with witchcraft, and the exercise of witchcraft is often easier during the full moon. It is a fact that anyone who deals with sorcery knows.

The white moon was full today. Reflecting on the light, albeit strong, the ice bridge glitters. Alphilis immerses himself in the mood as if he were walking even in the sea of stars. It would be nice to be a lover next door, etc. Alphilis thinks about that.

The closet peeked at the face of such an alphilis.

"Alphilis, it's beneath your nose."

"Oh, no?

"Just kidding."

Since the closet made a joke, Alphilis was pompous. On the contrary, the closet panics this time.

"What? Is it weird if I make a joke?

"Yeah. Because I felt like I'd never heard it before"

"Naturally. I said it the first time."

That's how the closet turned to the side, puffy. Alphilis didn't pursue it, but I'm sure the closet is lit, and Alphilis makes a hit. And it's got a purpose.

Did you walk like that for half an hour? Eventually the line arrived at the other mountain.

"Well, there's almost too much snow from here. You don't need my guidance."

"Thank you, Claw. Thank you so much."

Alphilis takes the hand of the closet and expresses his gratitude. Closess also shook Alphilis' hand back.

"Oh, master."

"Claw is the one. Visit me whenever you get lonely. You don't want to be one of them, you want to come for tea."

"I get it. I'll remember, Alfie."

Thus, the closet went back across the original ice bridge. I didn't look back at it like she did, but when I looked back here, I felt like I was going to keep following her. I don't know how I could be so fascinated by Alphilis, but I was only sure. It took a lot of strength to turn back from here. Alphilis, too, may have somehow guessed her feelings like that. I didn't force myself to pull it off or speak up.

"Good for you, Alfie."

Miranda talks to Alphilis.

"What?

"Of course it's about Claw. If you insist, I'm sure you'll come."

"Right. But that's not what I meant."

Alphilis makes Miranda smile. The face was somewhere full of confidence.

"Any thoughts?

"At the end of the day, Claw called me 'Alfie'. So I'm sure she'll come and see me. I feel that way."

"I see... well, if you don't make a fine regiment by then, maybe you'll get tired of Claw, huh?

"'This mercenary regiment doesn't even drink tea?' Or something like that, right?

"I'll tell you what!

Alphilis and the others followed the scene with such a gruesome conversation. Such is the most insecure land on the east side of the continent, said to be the conflict zone of Gachelon.
