The Branded Female Fencer

Unsheltered Land, Part 8 ~ Each of whom greets ~

"Ugh, I almost died."

"I apologize on behalf of this sleeping child."

"No, that's okay. Instead, I'm the one who saved you."

Miranda is replacing Alphilis and bowing her head to Impulse. If you explain why this is the case.

After rescuing the impulse from under the fallen Alphilis, it seemed better to move the place for now, and it was a line that escaped as quickly as possible to Larna's place.

When the subscribed Daron just came into play and lightly assumed the alphilis he was passing out, he came running and following at about the same speed as the horse. There is no reason why Aerial was surprised by the artistry, partly because of Daron's great stride, but more than that, the Giant's health is amazing. The Titans are close to sleepless rest, but it's possible to keep fighting for about three days. The big body is not Dada.

And Rana and Miranda tried to see how Alphilis was doing lying down, but Miranda was frightened by Alphilis, who was snoring and sleeping, and wondering what kind of impossible challenge she would say and bully her when she woke up. And Lisa, for some reason, stared at Alphilis' chest,

"I'm no longer a murder weapon... come on!

and so on and grudging words of resentment. Apparently, there's a complex that's like Lisa. All relieved that he has taken off his predicament, he talks to each other as he pleases until Alphilis wakes up, including Dallon's introduction to himself, etc., but Impulse is in it and stares at Alphilis.

"(That's crazy... I thought my hair was gold until just now. Hmm?)"

Lying in front of the impulse, Alphilis has long black hair from wherever he may see it. Gwendorf talks to the surprised impulse.

"Long time no see, Impulse"

"Ah, you are True Dragon Gwendorf!?

An impulse realizing who Gwendorf is makes his dwelling right. It's important to Impulse, such as not realizing his presence, but he was more distracted by Alphilis than he had woken up for a long time.

"I apologize for this! Without even saying hello..."

"That's okay. Ever since you were present when you became the Spirit Sword?

"Right. Has it been some time since then?

"About 1,200 years, I guess."

"1200..."

Close your eyes so that the impulse bites off the smudge and its years.

"It's been a long time. How is this world now?

"Let's chase it and talk about it. More than that, you'd have to say hello to your new master, wouldn't you?

"Yes, I was."

As I was told and noticed, the impulse turns back to Emerald.

"I greet you once again. My name is Spirit Sword Impulse. I will always know that I (My) am the Lord (Master)"

"Taru? Yes -??

Emerald apparently hasn't swallowed the situation well. When Uty tried so hard to explain the matter to her, Emerald looked strange but managed to convince her. Seeing that complex look, Impulse recalls Halpuia, who was his best friend.

"(Similar, I wonder if this is a roundabout. That kid was also a Rakuten family member, and he was a confused kid somewhere. But he was also the one who made the earliest decision to fight that war, and for that reason I became the Spirit Sword... and without her in the first place, I wouldn't even be manifesting myself...)"

From the time Impulse was born into the world, I recall the opportunity to become the Spirit Sword. That's when Alphilis woke up.

"That... good morning, everybody"

"Not good morning, you idiot!

"Yes, be impotent again!

"Of these!

"Lisa, the last one doesn't matter, does it!?

Alphilis and the others start arguing cheerfully from scratch. It was time for the sky to slowly start whitening, approaching the faces that aroused the argument and the faces that dazzled beside it.

"Well, shall we go"

"Oh, you don't have to stay long."

"Can I accompany you, too?

"Absolutely!

Alphilis grins, stroking the head of the impulse. It is not normal for the Spirit to ask a human being, etc., and it is really the opposite position, but the impulse is not a character obsessed with such things, and it made me feel strange and unpleasant.

"(You're a weird person)"

That is Impulse's untrue perception of Alphilis. And look a little sad with Alphilis looking back at the Utreticht behind him.

"That town... is it going to be okay?

"You don't have to be sick. I did it."

"No! Emerald!

"Ha, it's still me who did it. Emerald is sweet."

Impulse forgives Emerald. Still, Alphilis had an unconvincing look.

"But..."

"Alfi, can I have a word from Atashi?

Miranda comes by the Alphilis and talks.

"It may not be Sister's line, but it's impossible to save all humans. The more you spread your hand to save many, the bigger the gap, the smaller your hand will be this time if you try to fill the gap. This is a dilemma."

"I know. But I don't want to give up so easily."

"Right. But I think that thought is important. If you don't forget that thought all the time, or..."

Miranda cut the word there. The path Alphilis is aiming for is close to the path Miriazar is taking. But Miranda never really thought Miriazal was happy.

"(It's bad for the master, but you don't want Alphilis to be like you, Atashi...)"

But that doesn't convey those Miranda feelings to the current Alphilis. And they move on to the next land. The conflict zone in Gershron is still long, lying in front of them.

On the other hand, in the city of Eutreticht, reconstruction had begun. Has the impulse broken out and the Emerald song caused any inhabitants to think too? Surprisingly at first. And then grief and gasp. However, when people realized that the situation still did not improve, they began to clean up after, albeit cursorily.

There were a bunch of things to clean up, but the townspeople worked very slowly and seemed to have already lost their motivation. Yet the appearance also seems to be the march of the dead. But some of them were clearly regaining light in their eyes. The houses that were already about to collapse were demolished, and those without a place to stay were dispersed and temporarily evacuated to the houses of the others. Impulse runoff, Emerald song, also seems to have made some difference to this town. What that will do is another matter.

And there is one who views the town from afar.

"Dear Lifeless,"

"... Erlich or..."

Lifeless but still in a land of sorcery influences. Because the demon cannot be used in Utreticht, he watched the town from a distance from all the places where magic could be exercised. And Ellich watched the town in detail.

"... what happened, in that town..."

"Apparently, the Spirit Sword has gone wild. It seems possible to exercise the power of the Spirit itself, even in that land of servitude."

"... I could see thunder, but I see, impulses... those are swords that were legends even in my time of life... I don't know if there's going to be an immediate day in sight..."

"Yes."

Sincerely, Erlich is drooling his head. Lifeless faces thinking of the Alphilis and the others who would be far away.

"(The power is gathering steadily at the origin of the Alphilis. Are you sure this is okay, Orangeable...)"

Lifeless had been ordered by Oranzeble to monitor Alphilis as punishment for his last attempt to kill Alphilis without permission. She also tells me to give her a hand if I have to.

But it was surprising that they would step into a land where such sorcery would not affect them. Lifeless would find it useful to have Dortmund at times like this, but he is currently away on another assignment. Inevitably, Ellich had a sneak eye on Alphilis, but at any rate, Lisa's range of sensors is phenomenal, so there's a limit to getting closer as Ellich as well. At the end of the day, I don't know exactly what happened with Erlich. I only reported the results.

"Plus the giant man seems to be one of the Alphilis."

"... that doesn't matter... it would be about Titania, such as someone who can beat Dortmund by a one-on-one martial arts comparison anyway... it can't be an obstacle to him... that's all the reports..."

"Yes, to the best of my knowledge."

Upon hearing Erlich's report, Lifeless closes his eyes. A lifeless circle of thought about the future path of the Alphilis, but at that time, a presence emerges that hinders his thought.
