The Branded Female Fencer
Sealed, Part 117 - Successor of Malice ③ -
"Chi!
"Again and again, I don't see any point in fighting and winning. I would if I enjoyed it better, but I'm not interested in those who die if I leave them alone. Besides, I don't like the way you live like a suicide volunteer. Honestly, I can't find any interest in you, Titania.
What I like is the desperate face when I lifted up to be happy and still couldn't help it. An apathetic look, knowing that no matter how hard you try, you are not the right person to want. Blue face when your wish comes true in one more step, but that ruins it. I want to see a sight like that.
But Titania, I'm sure you won't have to do anything. You don't want any leaves. "
"May fly!
The shockwave that Titania left half to anger was held back by Doom's made evil spirit wall. Its walls blocking sight were destroyed by another Titanian attack, but by then there were no more Dooms, and the magic formations of the transfer had disappeared.
Later all that remained was Doom's laughter heard from the darkness.
"(- I'll keep you alive now, all of you - but I'm sure I'll sink everyone here into the darkness of despair. That's all the power and knowledge I got today - so it's in order. Despair comes to all humans - you just have to wait in order - so please don't die in this place yet? -
- Oh, just one thing - Lifeless magic isn't the only crisis looming for you guys - we'll move on leaving this land now -) "
"What do you mean?
Unexpectedly Lisa was asking Doom back like she was obsessed. Is the voice delivered or not? But after a while, Doom replied.
"(- No one believes in Orangeables - neither Annomarie, nor me, nor Lifeless - even Titania, who sent me here, who should be true to herself - so naturally there are precautions against Titania when it fails - and there are the worst measures available -
Titania - How long has it been since you stood up for the Orange Bull? - It's time for him to cut the paralysis - look outside - despair comes from the sky - it'll be too late when it sees the most - hahahahahahaha -) "
"What!?
"... from the sky?
This place is deep underground, and even with Lisa's sensors, we can't know what's going on in the sky. If you open it up to it, Rosetta, Lachia and Tasha can see far away with pure vision. Lisa explored their movement, which should have been about to come out on the ground, but the movement was certainly hasty. Something unforeseen could be happening.
Lisa immediately informed everyone of the move.
"Something happened on the ground?
"... don't have a bad feeling. Doom is a bad guy, but he's also a guy who can't help but enjoy himself."
"Yeah, so does Lisa. I was wondering if we should immediately collect Alphilis and Victoria and head to the ground."
"You may not make it if you're on your way. I'll fly the demon."
"Please, Larna"
Together they left the scene when they summed up their opinions as soon as possible. But when only Mason slowly stepped back, he stayed alone on the spot. Naturally Lisa noticed the move, but Mason decided to leave it alone because he was only originally asked to cooperate.
And one was left on the spot, Mason, talking to the darkness.
"... I told you not to erase the signs, didn't I?
"I told you Wye did the same thing."
From the shadows, Brandio appeared. In that hand, there were several books. Mason was immediately guessing that it must have been taken from him in this workshop.
"For what purpose did you come here?
"After you headed to this earth, Titania was sent, too. Maybe he'll be the wingman to soften up the first fight, so just in case, Wye can go. I thought if you were a Titania opponent, you'd be full of them."
"Is that Lord Miranda's order?
"Seya. If you're going to be able to do it at last, you're going to have to take away Anomaly's research and what will be the Book of Life. Burns, the Book of Life apparently was taken by Doom's kid. I don't need you here anymore to pull me up, but are you coming? What a disturbing air, just get away with it."
Brandio said in his favor, but Mason shook his head sideways after a bit of trouble.
"No, my assignment also includes an Alphilis escort. Not until we make sure she's safe. Besides, I'm starting to get a little interested."
"Well? You know, I just thought you were indifferent to other people."
"Not really. According to the report, she has a different personality, but that's not the only thing that can explain it."
"That, what?
"There is no certainty yet. But stay with the Spirit."
"Hmm."
Brandio looked at Mason with interest, but quickly went back to his work. Mason also turned back on his heel, in the direction where Alphilis would be.
