The Branded Female Fencer

Guilty Sword of Oath, Part 79 ~ Dora ③, Erlich ② ~

"... because I found it unsuitable"

"That it's not for you?

"That's right. It's not sexually appropriate for me to lead or command someone. You're born qualities, this. I just think that being used by people allows me to fully exert my power for the first time. On second thought, the original is a humble personality. I was finally able to admit it recently.

But I'm not proud of that either. I don't want to serve the devious Lord. It's more human now. In that regard, that one is enough. His famous heroic king would be the Lord of no more. "

"It would be possible to hide it."

"In a world where Arnelia's pilgrimage wanders? I wish for a world where I would never feel safe. Then destroy Arnelia. But I seek my peace."

"May I disintegrate the world order?"

"Naturally. It's a world that never embraced me. No untrained."

Dortmund is convinced that this is the Demon King when he sees Erlich so clearly. When I think that this is "human," I think that humans are often deeply productive creatures. I should have known enough when I served a lifeless man.

And Erlich cut it out the other way this time.

"Well, now let me ask you an answer to my question"

It depends.

"Let me just respond, that's pretty good. What, it's easy. How come you've been serving life less for so long? I've heard of the" Night Dark Clan, "but certainly they were known as an exceptional combative but at the same time an abnegate clan. Monetary rewards are a lot of work, they don't kill useless people, and basically they shouldn't come out deep in nature. Why did you serve humans?

"... once, I had a sister. Me, my sister, Lifeless and a few others. We were traveling companions."

Dortmund looked up, as he missed the distance a little.

"Life less is still where the boy is. Already our clan had traveled all the way down, and each in search of new heavens and earth, to find a new place to live. Me and my sister Shelley did the same. We met in the process. It was when Lifeless was still a boy.

My sister was a swordsman far above me. I can only use a score close to the sword at best, but Sherry didn't pick a weapon. Depending on how you fought, you might have shown Titania the strength to approach. It was also Shelly and I who gave Lifeless the clue to how to fight. Shelley also educated lifeless people about letters, arithmetic, and morality. So is preliminary sorcery. Shelley was a lifeless master in every sense, and a sister, a friend, and a lover, a wife. "

"... were you married?

"On the contrary, I had children"

To Dortmund's words, Erlich stops walking.

"Wait. You can't see such a statement in a history book, and most importantly, you didn't say a word of that, did you?

"I forgot. No, should I say I've become that body to forget? Shelly and her children died in battle. Our lives were with battle. It was just an unavoidable event, and Lifeless lost the place for emotion. The grief and anger that had lost them were, naturally, directed to the battle. But after more than a thousand battlefields, I guess that sentiment never sublimated.

As a polar seeking battle, by eliminating memories and parts of his life, Lifeless succeeded in obtaining a body close to immortality. No, maybe I wanted to give you my memory. More since I got involved with Orangeables.

That's why I'm beside the lifeless. I'm no longer the only one who remembers the truth about that man. You won't even remember anymore, such as being a friend before I served, but still I won't stop waving my sword for Lifeless, no, Graham. Even if this body decays. That's my sword vow, and that's why I fight. My sword exists only to destroy his enemies "

Dortmund told him so, leaving early enough. The remaining Erlich seemed to be thinking of something too, but eventually disappeared to dissolve into the darkness.

At that time Dortmund was telling his true intentions without falsehood, but he never told Erlich only one thing. Even though it was a sword I swore so hard, when I cut it with Jake, I felt so loud on top of this that I was about to be crushed again at the same time. If that were to happen, Dortmund couldn't have said that he wanted to fight back to back with Jake, as he once did with Lifeless, etc., even if his mouth was torn.
