The Branded Female Fencer
City of Pleasure, Part 115 - Queen of Pleasure
"Damn, I didn't know I could get this far and get out of bounds"
"I have no choice. Such a powerful bond is no longer similar to a castle. No, maybe this fog is the castle itself. Then we need to take more time to get into this building."
"May I have a word?
The Knights of the Temple step in front of the Libidu Hall, where the fog occurs. They arrived here after several battles and explorations, but had been prevented from breaking into a powerful junction. Neither did Ultina believe that a strong bond had been developed so far, a situation which cannot be broken if we take the time and the number of people, but which I have to say is just as severe with the current number of people.
When he saw the attack, Jake came forward. And staring at the building for a while, he basically poked his sword at one of the walls. Then, until earlier, the careless, unseen junction was shaking.
Surprised are the Temple Knights.
"Jake, what did you do?
"No, because I learned in Gloria's class that there is a convergence of magic that should be the starting point. I stabbed a sword in the place like that, but apparently it worked."
"With the sword, the kingdom?
Unenchanting a place that should be the starting point is certainly a basic way of breaking the junction, but I've never heard of breaking it with a sword. It does not make sense that Jake, to a lesser extent, when it comes to the literacy of sorcery, has at a glance broken through the origins of such complex sorcery.
As the other knights watched, Jake stabbed one sword after the other, the impact of the building rocking heavily ran and the junction smashed apart with the bursting noise. For a moment a strong wind was blowing, and when it subsided, the door of the hall was open naturally.
"I think we can get in with this. Let's go."
"... how could you disarm it?
"... I honestly don't know. But I know what to do. Maybe you just have to think it's instinct."
"I can't explain myself."
"One day I want to understand. But now it's time to learn how to use your powers."
There was some stray in Jake's expression, but there was no stray in footsteps and behavior. Yeah, Ultina convinced me somewhere that this is what special means.
Then Jake, you take the lead.
"Me, sir?
"That's right. I've decided that doing so is the least dangerous thing. Do you have anything else to be aware of?
"... the juncture was shaken from the beginning. I think someone was probably already trying to break it. Besides, something must have happened to the Lord of the Connection. I feel weakened now. Now is the time."
"I see. So there's only one way forward."
When Ultina agreed with Jake, Jake began to move on without hesitation. Ultina also continued to walk again, as if to be led by something.
"What's going on?
I came to drop you off because Gunz says he's going outside, Libby Doo. The look had gotten harsher and turned into an angry look.
"It's an intruder. My castle was lightly torn. What do you mean?"
"You've been saying for a few days that there's a guy trying to break the castle a little bit, haven't you? Is that them?
"No, I'm not. The people in front of them cut the walls with their swords, but in a slight way. Not this time. All of a sudden, we've got a big hole in the wall. Feels like a whole wall was cut off. You got a bad guy."
"The one who did Insomnia?
"Well. But I'm not like Insomnia, am I? Unlike that kid who just performs paranoia, I have intelligence."
"... I hope so"
Gunz blurted with such a small voice that it didn't sound like Libidu. And I tried to ask him about the opportunity to leave Libidu's former, but Libidu was just about to disappear in the back. Apparently, apart from the tone, he's in quite a hurry.
"Are you going?
"Yeah, I'm a master. Because I may not be able to afford you either."
"Oh well. I'll see you when I'm alive."
"You idiot, you're dead already"
When Libidu laughed all the time, Gunz was decent. I know this look is normal and beautiful, but I felt strange because it was so different from the Libby Doo side I liked. I wonder if there would have been a more normal way of life if I could have had a look like that.
