The Branded Female Fencer

Alphilis was feeling it. That this gate will be one fate. An overwhelming presence felt from across the gate. That being beyond this gate will surely involve you throughout your life.

But as Alphilis tried to reach out to the gate, the gate was open all by itself. Fate tells me not to wait, as if to teach.

Beyond the gate, there was a quiet world spread. There are only a few round, low pedestals standing in a cancerous space large enough for a person to ride. That was gradually higher from the front, but even the tallest was a little higher than the back length of the alphilis. On that pedestal sits one white person at a time as well. And by the ninth and tenth places that guided Alphilis to sit on the pillar in front of him, Alphilis understood. This is in order of rank. He said it indicated that he was high enough to go in the back.

And only the front of the alphilis, the fifth pedestal from above and behind the tallest pedestal, was empty. When the Alphilis and the others all entered the hall, the door closed automatically and the silence came. And when the fourth and possibly fourth person from behind rose up from the spot, he proclaimed in high spirits.

"La Forse, the white first, is gone. Bless you all."

With that word, various forms of decoration suddenly appeared in a space where there was nothing. A gorgeous painting that would have been painted in the sand, beautiful sculptures like those seen in the garden earlier, and a moving beast, also thought to be a ceremonial beast, made of various metals. The hall was quickly transformed into a luxurious room.

When all of this was thought to have been knitted by witchcraft, the Alphilis and their spines were frozen thoughts. This is clearly beyond the existing common sense of witchcraft. It's not like I can't do it in theory. But it's too sophisticated, beyond what humans can handle. To use all this sorcery, the brains that process the procedure will follow. The hostages on this scene were able to breathe in witchcraft that provoked madness simply by use. He also used magic to breathe without much chanting or hand engraving.

I know exactly what Kim's fifth place said. Indeed, the white rank quit the human race, saying it was a group of some horrible people.

And when the decorations stopped spreading, a little girl appeared so that a mirage appeared on the tallest pedestal. Will I be 12 or 13 years old? The girl, wrapped in a white monochrome, laughed fun-filled when she recognized Alphilis.

"Nice to meet you, black sister. My name is La Forse and I am the highest bishop of the Church of Olimpus and the White First. Five places in the white, my mother La Millishire has been removed for her own use, but it's an honor to meet you first."

"It's Alphilis. Maybe you're welcome, but you can't thank me very much. Don't you think it lacks elegance to be forced to bring you here?

"You're certainly right. But this is fate again, too. I really wanted to pick more times before seeing you, but the clock needle seems to be moving faster than I thought. I thought we needed to meet, even if it wasn't too late."

"You're a kid who says things you don't really understand. I don't like talking like I know anything."

"Hehe, are you in a hurry?

La Forse chuckled. The laughter made Alphilis angry, but he wasn't even willing to leave here. You must not retreat from this opponent, no matter what. A more difficult situation awaits if you lose interest. Alphilis was so intuitive.

"You won't even have to rush. But my neck is tired to keep looking up. Could you come down to the same height? Or do you like to look down on people?

"I look down - although naturally I think we should. But I can't help it if you tell me."

As La Forse lowered his palm, each pedestal became lower, a gaze almost the same height as the alphilis. And when I thought Alpha Reese was suddenly pounded and moved, there was a chair emerged from the ground to such an extent that Alpha Reese was comfortable just sitting there. Likewise, the companions tried to be seated in a chair, but only Renatica and Layer flew off the spot, perceiving the anomaly. But they also became the feathers that were forced to sit in their chairs before they had laid their feet on the ground.

And La Forse has moved every pedestal in front of Alphilis.

"Are you sure about this? It shouldn't be uncomfortable."

"... Fine. So, what can I do for you?

"One purpose in itself is to meet you first. Can I see your face better?

La Forse had a serious view of the alphilis. Those eyes were beautiful as well as just black, and vice versa, which was horrible for Alphilis. The eyes of a powerful magician have power only with it. If you're cautious, you might lose your mind. Gazing at each other is a battle with a magician.

Fortunately, La Forse doesn't seem hostile, but Alphilis wasn't de-alerting. Seeing how nervous that alphilis was, La Forse chuckled.

"Don't look so pale, sister. I don't think so."

What do you say?

"Don't worry, it means I'm not 'yet' into that. I'm not ripe. In your sister today, who doesn't even know her existential significance yet, it's easier than twisting a baby's hand. But that's not what you want either."

"My existential significance?

"Yeah, but a rumble must be feeling something. The only people who know what that means are us and Oranzeble, and the late Me Chatless and Aldrius. Oh, you might know another one. The wizard you call Yugdrasil. No, I wonder if he's really a wizard."

"Wait, my master... what?

Alphilis tried to get himself out and listen, but that was hampered by the chair. Soon, because the chair held Alphilis' wrist in place. Alpha Reese is annoyed that there was no sign of it.

In front of me La Forse was laughing like a prank.
