On the roof of Imperial Castle...

"Well..."

I said let's talk, but I don't know what to start with.

I feel a long time ago that the split was only a few hours ago.

When I looked at Elibel, she was shaking the orbital flames like a bump.

'Uh... for now, sorry. Berk, you're in trouble.'

It was a complete accident.

Look, I'm stretching out into the outer wall with an enemy looking man.

Then you're totally passed out.

Well, it's the shape of a moro eating a runaway body in a full-body armed state.

What else?

I'm sorry, Berk.

I'm sorry about the bear who doesn't even know his name at last.

Well, he looked like an enemy, so it turned out to be O'Rei.

You just keep screwing around.

"Ha... is the first thing you say to me?

Elibel says with a slightly shuddered face.

And then he looked at me again, scratching his head boldly.

"... so what are you doing here?

I blurted out and said so.

Stare at me.

Phew, I nodded something.

What the fuck?

"That body... it's a golem. When the hell were you making that? Plus, there's a magic shake.... You used white powder? I told you not to use all that..."

Wow, that's amazing.

It's all been spotted.

As always, that's a hell of an observational eye and analytical power.

Elibel looked at me as I scratched my scalpless head.

I'm one step closer.

Then Elibel, too, took a step back.

"Why did you come out when you usually pull in cages and don't go out on a busy basis? It's also like this, a lot of people...... to the Empire in the middle of a Continental Conference. You know what this is all about? You didn't forget what you were like, did you? Are you the Dragon? It's superb for humans, isn't it?

―――

... To be honest, I kinda forgot.

But I can't care less about that right now.

Because...

"Happy or unhappy, most of the inhabitants of the Empire have passed out because of this foggy junction. But are there adventurers and knights in your arms? Do you know what happens when they find you? No, you're probably already aware of your presence. Especially this Imperial Castle, where the escorts of the participants in the Continental Conference gather. Everybody's so smart. You think you can get rid of all those guys? I can't help it. The existence of you, the surviving dragon, was exposed to the humans? I don't know what's gonna happen to you."

"- Elibel."

"... what?

Block Elibel's words as she curls up, and I spit them out.

"Why did you leave in silence?

"-"

Elibel shut up.

He missed his gaze from me and took a step back.

"... be it, whatever I do, I'll do it myself. Either way, I don't need your permission... in the first place, if you're talking about it right now -"

Answer me.

"Well, that sounds great, because there's a dragon in this drawer."

Even if I speak fairly magically and angrily, Elibel doesn't try to break his high-pressure attitude.

No, I'm rather going to stare at this one.

You really don't like it.

"Elibel......"

"Okay? You didn't forget you in the first place, did you? I'm only a dungeon advisor, even though I'm your family. So it's wrong to blame you for anything other than dungeons. And..."

"Why didn't you rely on me?

A word.

Again, I say blocking Elibel's words.

That's all I wanted to say.

Elibel looks at this one in a pompous manner.

"What?"

What are you doing here? That was the look on his face.

No, to be precise, the orbital flames are shaking like that.

"Why didn't you count on us for this one?

Second confirmation.

Frequent silence.

Then Elibel laughed as if she had erupted.

"Ha-ha-ha! What are you talking about? You're counting on me? You? Puha, that's the funniest joke you ever made! Ahahahahahahaha!"

Katakata, Katakata.

Bones sound delightful.

After a laugh, Elibel looked at me.

"You - are you making fun of me?

The magic, the killing, overflowed from Elibel.

Tickle the tingling and armor.

But I'm not scared.

"I can't believe I'm counting on you. I've been seen pretty cheap, too."

'Nothing. I'm not making fun of you. However, you do...... I don't know what to say...'

I scratch my armed head.

Somehow, I can't put it into words well.

Gasha and the sound of armor rubbing together.

………

Um, yeah.

I don't know what to say.

If I dare to put it into words...

'Yeah, right...... Kind of... I was sad, should I say...'

"Huh?"

'You were in so much trouble, you didn't realize it, and you didn't talk to us about it... somehow, it was a little sad'

………

With white powder and inverted spirit, I have stronger links with my relatives.

As we all knew immediately before when Valed destroyed the dungeon.

When I saw Tsumugi in Farbnir, as I found out at a glance that he was a family member.

Therefore, I understand.

Now Elibel's emotions and magic are pouring into me through the corridor of her family.

Well, I can't even look into it unless it's in this state.

Ha... Really, I'm always too late.

Backhand.

Really, I don't like it.

I was going to say, "I know," but when you're stuck with these cuts, you tell us to keep it to yourself and act... "

Elibel reacts with Pickle to that word of mine.

"" I knew. "... So? Did you...?

The voice was trembling.

'Oh, you didn't want to get us involved, did you? "I know."

Well, the Joker broke into Farbnil, and that doesn't make any sense either.

Even the usual me is seriously out of line.

And I thought, and I looked, and Elibel was shaking.

"- To you..."

The hand of only a gripping bone is swamped.

And to squeeze it out...

"Tell you what I know! I'm not kidding!

Elibel screamed.

Don't talk to me like I know! Like that, the orbital flame is shaking violently.

"I apologize for leaving in silence! But, hey, this is my problem! Me! Berk! I left it two hundred years ago! That's why we're the only ones who have to put Keri on! It's not a problem for you to sneak out with a face you don't know!

Gun! and Elibel rings the ground at the tip of a cane in her hand.

Elibel's emotions pour in like he cut a weir.

Apparently, a word now has reversed her emotions to an extent.

Really, I don't like it.

But still...

"She told you what she did to me! It's not just the destruction of the dungeon or the deception of Berk to prevent immortality! He's done a lot of other things he can't forgive! Sister Luriel, even he was fooling me! For over two hundred years I've been caught asleep! They betrayed us all! I can't believe I trusted a guy like that when I thought he was the master who taught me witchcraft. It's annoying, but it boils back!

"You're the one now, aren't you?"

"An analogy of things!

Right?

"Don't tear it up, not at all!

"But you're just a little airy."

"... it's my fault"

Is that right?

Ha - and Elibel take a deep sigh again.

I'd like to think my little joke is cutting off momentum earlier.

"But... the most unforgivable thing... is not that... it's not that..."

leaning down, rocking the orbital flames,

"Even if all is betrayed... still, I still“ believe ”him at heart. That, above all, is unforgivable."

That's Elibel's mood.

That's what's been flowing through me, emotions.

Elibel's confusion, lost, anxiety.

At the end of the day, Elibel is sweet.

Whether you get all that betrayal or all this happening.

This guy still can't think of Lias as the "enemy”.

Even with all that battle preparation and all that exchange of lives.

I actually tried to kill him, even just before that.

Still, somewhere in my heart, I believed in Lias.

So I hesitated.

That's why the tsuke turned.

It got behind my back like I did.

Until this happened, I allowed them to behave.

"That's right... I'm not out of hate about Lias... There was a brake somewhere in my heart. Even before this fog junction broke out, there was any chance I could kill him. You could have done as much as you wanted to. Still, at the end of the day, the moment I tried to stab him in the face, it was... my resolve was dull."

It's too sweet, and Elibel groans mocking herself.

"Well, that fucking bitch spotted you around there, too, and you were properly advised. When cutting cards, how to use trump cards..., if I wasn't mistaken about that, this wouldn't have happened if I hadn't even“ hesitated "... but -"

"- Doesn't mean anything, if that's the case"

Again, block Elibel's words.

That doesn't make any sense if ~.

I mean, you're not the character to say that.

Mostly, you're weak.

"Elibel, let me tell you something."

Let me say something.

'You're a lot nicer than you think you are, aren't you?

"What?"

Did they say something completely unexpected, Elibel seems decent?

"Well, I'm not the brother-in-law I could have told you, but you are, much sweeter inside than you think."

For that matter, I will not condone the enemy.

'You call that line pulling? That's a decent thing to say. That's why once you think you're on your side, it gets sweet, though. No matter what kind of villain he is, any idiot. Oh, I'm not disparaging you. Instead, I'm complimenting you, and I'm happy.'

Because it was sweet in her body, Elibel left silently.

Because I didn't want to get involved.

Trying to protect us.

But that's why I wanted you to talk to me.

……

"I was in trouble, I was in pain, I wanted you to talk to us."

"... why..."

With a faint voice, Elibel said.

"Why do you care so much about me?

Huh?

What the hell is that?

'Cause, you know, you said it before.

Step closer to Elibel.

I didn't back down this time.

- What world has a lord who forsakes his family and flees?

Once, the line Elibel told me.

Well, given the circumstances at the time, it wasn't such a superior line turner.

Still, the word is right.

You can't possibly care less.

You can't be abandoned.

No matter how selfish you are, even if you betray me.

Still - there is no way that the Lord can abandon his family and run away.

Another step, take.

If you noticed, Elibel was right in front of you.

Each other, reach out and you're within reach.

I saw each other.

I wasn't distracted.

"... really stupid, you..."

'I'm fine with being stupid. So I'll say it again, again and again, Elibel.'

Breathe softly,

"You can count on me."

I offered that hand to Elibel.

"Rely on me. Rely on your family. Alone, don't be strong. Lean on us and show us your weakness. If you're having a hard time, share it with us at all. Let's support each other and move forward a little bit. I don't know what I can do alone. So get involved. Try to annoy us too."

tickled, Elibel laughed.

"Are you listening to people?... You said you didn't want to get involved?

"Oh, you said that."

"You still want to help me?" Is that what you're saying about hurting you?

"Right."

"... well"

"Oh, yeah."

Slightly opening between them, Elibel took a deep sigh, as she had noticed.

"Really, you idiot, you..."

'I'm fine with being stupid. So, if you can save me. "

And Elibel,

"- Earth."

"What?"

its orbital flames, shaking,

"... I'm sorry, it's a little harsh, so help me"

I gave you my hand.

A white, pure white, bone-only strand.

"Naturally."

To avoid hurting it, slowly, I lay the tip of my own hand on Elibel's.

In the meantime, the grin spills, not from either.

Katakata and, delightfully, Elibel rattled her bones.

I laughed, too.

'Whoa?'

"Oh?"

Second, I noticed something strange.

Me and Elibel's corridor of magic is getting stronger.

Elibel's magic pours in.

As much as that, my magic flows to Elibel.

"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh"

'Right. But I don't hate it.'

Elibel also nodded happily shaking the orbital flame.

"Let's go, Elibel. I did something stupid to bust your former master. '

"Yeah, right. You have to punish me."

That's what I said, staring at the altar floating in the sky.

It was then...

"Ha-ha-ha!!

I heard a scream.

When I saw the voice, there stood a big man who had slammed me earlier.

Slumpy, bleeding from his head, fluttering, yet the fighting spirit overflowing from his body has not waned.

"- Ha ha! Ha... ha... I don't know! How lost were you, I am! Isn't that great! I can't believe they're here!

With a sincerely delightful and vicious grin, the dodgy man comes here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

If you look at it, Berk still remains stunned.

What's that supposed to mean?

You're telling me this man has more endurance than a battle form of Berk?

You're a real human being, Koz.

People in this world have a lot of breaking properties to make when it comes to killing dragons in Valed.

"If you say so."

Elibel opens her mouth.

"That fucking bitch said it.“ Night Fork ”Lou Langfan says he's an adventurer with a different kind of blow and strength. He said he had also defeated past designated disaster species by bringing them into enduring warfare because of their endurance."

"Heh..."

You mean defensive specialization?

Sounds like Farbnil to me.

At least you're strong enough to come at me alive.

Then, directly with your nails...

"Wait, Earth"

The moment I tried to set it up, Elibel took control of me with her hands.

"What's up?

"I'll do it."

'Is that good? This guy's pretty strong, isn't he?

If I'm alive, I'm going to be a hassle-free opponent, even if I'm armed.

Well, if you're in possession now, you don't have to destroy yourself, and you have hidden balls, so you can deal with them enough.

But Elibel, the Ark Skeleton, must have a heavy load.

"It's okay. Because thanks to you..."

The moment I said that,

- Ready, finally.

Elibel's magic exploded.

A pure white white light envelops Elibel.

That was only a moment.

The light will subside.

'What...?

"Ah...?

Me and the big man in front of me will raise their voices in surprise.

That would be so.

Because it wasn't Elibel who was there until now.

It wasn't Ark Skeleton.

Long silver hair.

pure white skin whiter than snow,

Trance and glowing red eyes.

The appearance that fascinates all the viewers.

And a run of magic until it's overwhelming.

That's right.

There she was - the figure of Elibel in her "lifetime".

"Hmm... I'm not used to“ living ”for a long time."

Me and Elibel scratch their heads like long silver-haired hair.

That's going to be one painting to decorate in the museum.

"E, Elibel...... is it?

"Of course, but who else do I look like?

'No, because the way it looks...'

Oh, and Elibel nods.

"... this is my trump card. A technique that maximizes sanctuary interference to its limits. Well... let's call it Sanctuary Trek, shall we?"

Sanctuary tread...?

You mean a ritual to restore Elibel to her lifetime?

I don't know the details.

But I can only clearly tell that it's a hell of a procedure.

Now, Elibel stretches lightly.

"There's a time limit for this procedure. So let's just get this over with, shall we?

Surprisingly, Elibel's magic is transmitted through the corridor.

At the same time, my magic is being sucked away with tremendous momentum.

Is my main unit okay? I hope it's not dried up......

I saw that, Lau Lanfan, with a vicious grin.

"Ha-ha! Whoa, whoa! What, what? Ark Skeleton had a hell of a hand over there, too. Fine, you don't accumulate! Now, whoa, when you start..."

Shut up.

A glimpse.

Elibel quietly waves her wand sideways.

"- Ah?"

Lou Langfan raises his voice in surprise.

I got chilly.

And the next moment...

- Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Quiet, everything sounded frozen.

"Eh."

It was a moment.

A world of white silver.

Everything in front of Elibel was frozen in an instant.

"Wow... it's cold"

The exhaling breath is white.

Even in a state of armament, cold as a sting to the skin.

What happened to the other guy?

When I saw it, an integral ice statue could be made there.

“Night Fork” Lou Langfan was frozen with a look that didn't even know what had happened.

Once upon a time, Elibel approaches the ice statue.

Hit the tip and wand against the ice statue.

Pakin, making a noise, the ice statue collapsed.

Dead.

Too much, it was a sad way to end it.

Overwhelming force.

The culmination of the sorcerer.

“Sage” Elibel von Lebenhertz.

This is its strength.

The power of Elibel during the full season.

"I wonder if this is how the prep movement works."

Guru turns his shoulder and Elibel tells him to make sure he is feeling well.

Keep coming, grab hold of me and come next to me.

Ugh, I'm a little scared, Sage.

Look, it's frosting or something on the armor part.

It would be nice if it were a golem, but if it were normal, the adhesive area with the skin would be amazing.

And when I thought about it, my body fluttered.

Fly magic.

That's your first experience floating around.

Oops, surprisingly difficult to balance.

Look at Elibel.

Then I laughed invincibly.

"Well, I'll be on my way, Earth. Um... help me, right?

But that look just seems a little uneasy.

So I laughed.

"Naturally."

Don't give me anxiety.

"Go, go, go."

Point your gaze up.

Signs of intense magic flow from the black altar floating in the air.

Probably there.

By Lias Aurora.

And there's the “thing” she's trying to revive.

But there's nothing to be afraid of.

Because Elibel relied on me properly.

He showed weakness and leaned on me.

So as much power comes from it.

Come on, let's go, Elibel.

To settle for everything in your past.

- Let's start the last fight.
