The Spearmaster and the Black Cat

Five Hundred Two Stories Yui's Activity & White Lady

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Yay, did you see the blood letters? Shuya saved the hostages."

"Yes! Now you no longer have to avoid enemies"

"Now... let's say we suck our enemies off with a sudden raid from"

Jody, who kept his back on the wall, gracefully walks out with his weapon hanging on his shoulder.

I walked rhythmically through the middle of the hallway.

I feel like I can hear nature and music.

Bloody butterflies gushing from Jody's back and toe like a leopard dancing with a bat umbrella...

I know very well that she feels comfortable with spirits.

I'm going to be fascinated.

Oh, but my mouth was a little pointy about the remnants of the Dead Butterfly Man.

Strange, but I maintain my aesthetic shape.

"That's the Cunnary blade, isn't it?

"Yes."

"Because it looks good, the quality of the moves and it looks good gross..."

And I reluctantly pointed it out.

"It's okay. 'Cause I'm not going to deform any more, like Shail."

"Ah..."

I thought I was gone.

"I also saw Shayle playing with the rolling balls looking to chase fun beside Kish and Gorgontura at Saidail..."

Vine also speaks in memory of her weak Shale appearance.

"Yeah, I saw it, too. So, Jody... when I look for the items I need to cure her, I'm willing to help."

"Yui, that feeling is enough. You are moving for your father and Master Shuya. Everyone is busy as Shuya struggles to build a safe ground in the area..."

Jody has a strong heart.

I wonder if that's why.

But I feel like thinking about Shale... it's showing up in Jody's eyes.

My eyes shake with sadness.

Shuya also feels Jody's, because she thinks about her partner as she does now......

Sometimes, you treat Jody very gently.

I get jealous of everything, including about Hygria......

But I left Shuya of my own free will.

It was I who chose to help my father with his dreams.

Of course, my own training overlaps with my father's dreams.

And that's because it's going to be for the future Shuya... I'm away.

Being on the cool Shuya side makes me want to be around forever......

... you can't.

I need to be conscious as an empress, like Senior Veronica.

Can't be sweet as.

I have to be a strong woman......

So much so that Shuya can safely keep her back......

Then the bird's voice rang.

A small metal bird that rings like a satchel.

She looks like she wrapped Vine's blood around her, but she's cute.

It changed from a smaller one to a smaller one.

Does that mean we're moving from hiding to attacking?

Strange metal bird.

I hear you two worked together to develop Misty's material collection.

When I tried to ask Vine more about birds like the one made of that metal...

The alarm sounded from nowhere.

"I see you've been detected helping."

"Seems so"

"... the enemy is about to come"

Immediately after that...

Jody's words became reality.

Several transfer formations appear in the hallway -.

A translucent appearance of the monsters emerges above that transfer formation… it has not yet been fully materialized.

That's a big soldier in the demonic system.

Thick including chest plate from head.

Could be an oak or goblin species.

The weapon is a giant sword.

They hang corpses on the tips like machetes.

The implausible machete that hung the body?

He wears metal armor with bones and metal processed without gaps.

Looks like formal army clothing.

From the looks of your weapon armor, you're not a regular demon soldier.

But it's no use.

I'm not stupid enough to wait for a metastasis...

Loosen the strings of nature and chest belts and pull out the god ghost/spirit wind.

Yes, I was running forward with nature and a forward leaning attitude -.

The same goes for Vine and Jody.

The sheath of the divine ghost/spirit-style machete quickly inserts into the item box that joins the belt and pulls out Azeroth with his left hand -.

- I don't use sheaths. Tighten them with duplicity.

The first aim is the head - piercing the skull with every splendid helmet at the tip of Azeroth's demon knife.

"-Hi?

I heard a weird final voice, but I don't care.

I zeroed in with the demonic system that was on the way from the magic formation in the back -.

Push the god ghost/spirit wind blade against the neck muscle and slash its carotid artery with a single knife -.

Blood poured from the diagonal line from neck to chest.

- Pass magic through the god ghost/spiritual wind while bathing in blood -.

An invisible wind blade emerges from the god ghost/spiritual wind without intermittent hair.

The demon clan was exposed to an invisible wind blade all over his body, and his body fell apart with every armor.

Full of blood splashes that take away my sight.

The blood splash travels through the universe like a ascending dragon.

More like a geyser than a dragon.

Drain a large amount of blood from the universe.

I don't go out of my way to bite a piece of meat.

At the same time, aim for the Azeroth thrust towards the head of the demon clan on the left.

But the arrows of Vine's rays go beyond me -.

Vine's shining arrow pierced the head of the demon clan I aimed at.

The head of that demon tribe exploded with every helmet a little late.

Only the head was scattered unbroken demon tribe.

The torso fell like a broken doll with a fragment of the helmet pierced.

Blood gives way to Vine.

Forward without sucking...

Jody deals with the demons on the right.

I double-crossed the Demon Clan with a sickle blade.

I caught my body splitting left and right at the edge of my vision.

Vine's blood-soaked metal bamboo also moves.

A backsword emerges from the pocket of the jade with the sound of a bird.

The backsword went toward the demons after Jody.

I aim at the neck of the demon tribe, which was in the process of appearing diagonally left...

Only the head, the demon tribe in appearance - I don't think it's bad for that demon tribe -.

We are Lucival the Light Demon.

Speed is not coarse...

As he ran, he rolled out his body leaning to the right and slaughtering.

For the neck of the demon clan with a desperate look, show off the new moves developed from the spinning slaughter -.

The god ghost/spirit wind blade in the reverse orbit captured the demon clan's neck and said, "Hih-ha."

A strange voice echoes from the neck of a flying demon clan.

The activity of reliable companions was reflected in the shifting vision.

That's Vine's arrow of continuous rays.

Arrows fly away.

Unlike Shuya's light spear, countless trajectories were born that ripped the universe apart.

Looks like you activated your archer skills.

The way Vine handles her bow is beautiful and picturesque.

- The arrows of rays captured the heads of demonic tribes in a row similar to the oak system in the middle of emergence.

Only that head is destroyed and exploded accurately.

Jody moves behind us.

To deal with demonic style soldiers that also emerged from behind, but they are still highly judgmental.

Jody flies a flying tool in the shape of a butterfly.

Stopped the demon soldiers.

And with flying manoeuvres he instantly stuffed his way between himself and the soldiers, and then the spiraling toe kicked him with a pointed part, and no, he was piercing the Demon soldier's shoulder, and then poking his pointy mouth through the soldier's head, sucking the contents off and knocking him down to < suck soul >.

He wields a giant sickle as he cuts every passage as he spins his head.

I use Surge vigorously and dynamically and it's a great way to fight......

I toured the battle of Jodi as I continued to spin like my body had become a pawn.

That slightly out of sight moment...

I wasn't alarmed...

Demonic soldiers who were finishing their appearance from the back of the passage ahead have quickly crushed their time.

"Target the leading people..."

What kind of devil screams like that? Skinny?

An unknown demon soldier who can handle demon fighting by wearing a lineup.

It may also contain human blood, not demons.

The weapon is slightly different in shape from the machete that the Big Demons had.

Either way, it's not a regular machete.

Weird corpses were hanging connected to some of the blades.

My physique seems skinny and strong.

Exactly. Soldiers who move in in an emergency.

- There are moves of martial arts and smooth poking motion.

He poked me in the head with an elongated cut.

Then the poisonous magic leaked from the body, and its penetration split left and right.

The blade pops out, aiming at my wrist...

No use. I jumped in a stained motion and slammed a blade approaching my wrist - waving down the god ghost/spirit wind from the upper stage -.

The unknown demon tribe was astonished,

"Quick."

and raised his voice.

Fangs grow abnormally in the formations worn by that skinny, unknown demon clan.

I didn't expect fangs to pop out of the formations.

The quick demon clan wearing that formation of kasas took the demon knife horizontally and received the blade of the god ghost/spiritual wind.

Hehe, the reaction is brilliant.

But don't take it...

The blade of the god ghost/spiritual wind is powerful with the added power as.

I will distort the devil's knife that I am receiving into writing.

Blood overflows from my forehead as the formations recede.

I let the curved demon knife in as it was.

The poisonous corpse that was falling on that curved demon knife lost its power or shriveled.

At the same time, he smashes and slashes the skulls of every Demon Knife and Formosa Demon soldier.

Furthermore, the God-ghost/spirit-style machete, which gained my magic power, causes the wind to dwell even in the gods - the demon clan, which continued to bathe the blade of the wind all over its body, fell apart in an instant, as did the demon clan earlier.

- A vibrant blood splash is born on all sides.

Even with all that blood, no other demon tribe can be cowered.

Like other demons who have finished their metastases, strengthening their stares......

It has advanced toward us.

"Surround, surround and crush!

"Where'd you break in from?"

"Let Master Zelenard get close."

A demonic soldier who speaks out his temper in his mouth and comes packing his time.

I will receive in Azeroth the attack of the slaughter orbit launched by its demonic soldiers.

He slashed the small hand of the demonic soldier who attacked him in the spiritual and spiritual wind while in a half-body position.

Step forward - and at the same time rest the Azeroth blade tip on a straight line near the carotid artery of the opponent.

As it was, the demonic soldier "clustered -" and advanced with a voice.

Azeroth's blade tip was sucked straight into the Devil's neck.

Pierce the carotid artery...

"This woman is not normal."

"Oh, my God, it's two swords -"

"Don't be frightened - my, with this no-neck poison fang, I'll stop you"

The body hanging on the machete is poisoned.

Same enemy just now?

I guess a corpse knife with poison magic.

I remember training with my father when I was relative to that demonic soldier.

'When applying enemy power, it is important to identify the target. Capture a moment of truth. "

"False? But including feints can change a thousand things, right?

'You should include your gaze. But if your opponent is human, breathing will give you a hint during the moment of battle'

"Breathing…"

'That's right. When an enemy attacks, it breathes out rough breaths. On the contrary, when pretending to be calm, breathe. Aim there -'

Reality and my father's knife knife moves synchronized.

"Cocu -"

So, he pierces the throat and chest of the demon soldier who came through.

"I have none. Breathe is one breath. The sword must behave. '

Yeah, the swordsmanship that passes to the Frogman family is not Dada...

"Stay out of this, use the body."

Out of class, too, on the white lady's side?

Continue to roll out < Silver Tough - II >.

Applied techniques of living together technology that I wanted to show Shuya.

One hand slash horizontally while jumping straight up...

Double-cut the heads of the two demons, swinging the divine ghost/spirit-wind sword down from their heads all at once so that it flows - while inverting itself.

He also slashes down the Demon Knife Azeroth directly on his way to the ground.

He slaughtered five demons in one act.

However, dealing with the Sixth Demon Clan was slightly delayed.

"Blood demon swordsmen..."

Receive the imminent Devil's Sword in front of you with the Divine Ghost/Spiritual Wind, and prevent -.

As lightly packed with intermission, this great demon tribe was powerful, sparks scattered.

Pull the sword handled by the Demons so as to draw a circle into the universe as it is -.

It may also look like a dance between sword and sword.

Heh heh, but you hate it...

"Who is it? Dear Feu, I didn't know my swordsmanship would pass."

"Don't talk to me. I have no taste in dancing with you."

A swing from under Azeroth, who was changing his handles, and, slashing off the demon's glutes.

"Gah."

A further spinning kick was fed to the head of a rammed demon clan.

After controlling the field, pull your right foot wide back.

Likewise, while pulling the demon knife and standing on his body, he peered around.

Maintain three breaths with a residual heart structure.

I drew my breath as I sucked up blood.

"Brilliant. It is a fatigue that marks the beginning with the opening of the body and the skillful use of two swords."

Praised by Vine.

I quietly deliver the Devil's Knife Azeroth to the sheath of my hips as I return my feet.

"Hehe, even if the fat sticks to the knife, it doesn't matter to Yui and the others -"

Jody speaks with pleasure.

Once upon a time, my father also leaked in dissatisfaction that a single knife would not kill five people.

Mr. Jody like that keeps waving a giant sickle blade.

It was aimed only at the materialized part of the way it appeared.

Awesome, a stunning slice of the demonic flesh that emerged while too huge to fit into the wall.

At one time, I was slaughtering three bodies.

But metastases are usually a threat, but they're counterproductive to us.

It's usually better to show up from the hallway.

Because metastasis is also convenient, and it's not a dumb idea to sit and watch.

Oh, no, the "Spearman" Shuya might dare wait for the transfer.

Seems like he's going to curb his urge to be a spear samurai this time.

Because you are always a spear madman saint aiming for the sublimation of martial arts every time...

I'm sure it's such a shuya that my father and Mr. Delhout, who Dark God Ardin admitted, also admire and respect me.

and was Yui worried about the habit of Shuya, the Sovereign.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

This is a laboratory that the white lady loves to use.

"No, let go..."

The girl on the platform tries to move her body, but she can't move.

His eyes are covered in inexplicable magic and his vision is blocked.

To the girl, it was nothing but fear and despair, but as her mouth speaks, it is not blocked. From its mouth a liquid-like black jaw releases into the universe.

The black jade changed its shape to a distorted black mass when it mimicked the head like a jade dog that housed three bright red gradients between his eyebrows.

Yes, the girl in captivity is not normal either, which creates this shape-shifting monster.

A black hunk monster that eventually became an obscene form.

It produces innumerable teeth like those growing from the mouth of a pimple from the surface.

Fang-grown black masses were struck by the presence of white.

The presence of white does not panic when there is an imminent tooth-producing monster like the one held by the scythe.

"No use, ahahaha"

"- Mudada, ahahahahahaha"

She laughs and laughs in the voice of a tall woman.

The presence of white was producing voices like females and spooky heavy bass voices.

Put your hands and hands over your head as you raise your eerie multiple whispers -.

Round white crest magic formation occurs from its raised fingers.

Those white magic formations collided with a bunch of black chunks.

The obscenely shaped black chunk twirls, reshaping as it emits a rough heartbeat to house the girl's grudge in the black chunk.

I got a head similar to the first dog.

And exhale from his mouth his rough magical breath as a warcraft.

Under normal circumstances, you'd panic if you saw a giant head like this hound.

But the confronting white presence is also unusual.

"... the vampire of Vermina, don't get on with it"

A white presence that despises the vicious-sided dogs that host the three slopes between their eyebrows for nothing.

The white presence, inclined to look down as it were, laughs, laughs.

White beings with two laughs.

Manipulate the crest magic formation.

The rough breathing black dog opens his mouth and shows the sharp fangs growing from his jaw.

He attacked to devour the white presence that was emitting the laughter in front of him.

The presence of white is not allowed to be slight.

It emits a magic formation from your fingertips to prevent a bite attack on your dog.

For each of its white magic formations, the dog tried to bite wildly and desperately, again and again, in an attempt to eat the presence of white.

But the magic formations that white beings activate and manipulate are robust.

The head of the dog, prevented from biting, returns to the form of an obscene black mass.

But I won't give up the attack.

Every time an attack is taken, it is reshaped to make use of the teeth that cover the surface of the black mass.

Now the smelly dragon of the mouth produced a turbulent pile of teeth that seemed to be growing.

The black mass makes the body feel like it's taking advantage of its turbulent pile teeth.

Again, it struck a white presence.

Split the turbulent pile teeth that grew on the surface of the mass.

It was a black mass that increased the hand of the attack, but the relative white presence was calm.

Skillfully manipulate the small white crest magic formation created at your fingertips...

A series of attacks, such as black whips or black snakes, are prevented from picking the seeds of tampons.

A fierce spark was created whenever a magic formation and a black mass collided in the universe -.

A fierce spark is scattered across the universe many times.

The crest magic formations with white beings unfolding in front of them are stiff.

I wouldn't be scared if I got attacked.

The smaller white crest magic formations are probably because they are multiple, overlapping magic formations.

Defensive magic formations that sometimes become divisive and thin, but overlap and thrive in good time.

The black chunk is pushed into a white crest magic formation on the back of its ugly appearance.

Eventually the obscene black chunk returns near the girl when she finds out her own attack is futile.

I began to drift to protect the girl in captivity.

"... is this the power of the family of the king of terror, Brittra"

"Mix some ha and il. The power of Vermina, the goddess of nightmares, would also be Al."

"I'd like to take this in..."

"Not yet, I can't da. Lebra's Dead Arms Ga Required DEAL. The soul of Arse, from the capture te da"

"Right. It's still in Hanze's vessel."

"... treasure mo needa taken from the ancient werewolves"

"As Longhan brings..."

White beings are discussed with heterogeneous voices and women's voices.

That moment...

The white presence trembled.

I sense that my abilities have been removed in a forceful way, and I remember my anger.

"I wonder who..."

"... I, the Nowretcher."

"... I lost the Arse manipulation at the same time"

"Ariene -"

A white presence thundered two voices for a moment...

A giant white crest magic formation unfolded beneath his feet.

The magic formation flourishes instantly.

When the white presence was wrapped in a laminated magic formation, it transferred without leaving any dust.

Disappears without even leaving the smallest particles beyond the quark.

That's an awesome transfer technique, like using "quantum entanglement" for real matter.

The imprisoned girl who was spitting black chunks out of her mouth doesn't even know her own life was saved.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Alarm.

I saved the noil runners with the help of Kuna.

Then you'll notice that the white lady-like presence is also hostile.

And, when you do, will you come straight here?

Shortly after I thought so...

The glass room gives off a white glow.

Are you still here? And I just thought, activate Beginning Darkness.

Darkness arises from beneath your feet...

Instantly, remove the coin from the item box and sprinkle it gently.

... Ouch, I snapped my own thumb and index finger.

"Pep" the bloody wet fingers I took to the same floor as the coin I threw away -.

Zero-comma with blood splashes out of its hands. While not many seconds later, the dark world eroded through glass rooms around it.

Crush the glass in the way.

The thick glass is instant, crushed, the magic props that were in the room are full of holes and scattered.

I'm not stupid enough to wait too long.

Let's crush the metastatic beings...

Primary: The "Ice Bullet (Freezebret)" of the water attribute was also mixed.

The fabric stone of Immoliza's third arm is not yet available.

He is also aware and pulls out the Blood Demon Sword at the same time as stabbing the Moon Wolf Ring no Spear to the ground.

Blood flames erupted from the pattern of the scythe and the sword body.

At first glance, the pattern is likely to burn, but it does not burn.

The blood flames that erupt elect the cross.

The bloodsucking king-like blooddemon sword swings up as he makes sure he moves to punch his pulse.

Activated the Twelve Haunted Ways Summoner.

Just like before, the Demon Army Night No-Speed Industry of the Book of Deep Righteousness hanging on his hips sounds with magic as if he were unhappy, but ignores.

"Hundred Eyed Bloody Ghosts, Get Out -"

The woman, holding the eight swords with both hands with multiple eyes, appeared with a grudge.

The multiple eyes that dwell in the arms of the Hundred-Eyed Blood Ghost roar like they want my fingers, blood and coins...

In a moment, multiple eyes sucked coins into my fingers and blood.

Hundred-eyed blood ghosts with dark hair like willow leaves, emitting blood splashes from their backs...

Wave an eight branch sword in one thin hand...

Fire a thin, dense demon blade in a row.

Plus I saw something huge but disappeared where the wall became a hive by my Ice Bullet and Dusk of Lancer.

No, there's a tremor coming from behind a wall full of holes.

There were countless giants born like walls collapsing.

Failed to metastasize?

Looks like he's stuck inside the wall.

If you're a normal person, you die instantly.

Exactly. "* I'm in a sardine *".

The magic formations laid on the floor have disappeared in my Beginning Darkness, and probably stopped the metastasis.

Grab the moon wolf ring no spear you were giving me and pull it out.

I took the blood demon sword on my left hand and the moon wolf ring on my right. I took the spear stance one sword at a time.

Then,

"Gwo... the junction dato interfering with the metastasis using my sochner..."

"Unknown Dark Mindset Dimensional World and Attack...... If so, who has space-time attributes?

"I didn't know you were going to use a multi-stage attack beforehand... your opponent... is Zelenard... the Eight Wise Men chased you?

"Such a thing… if it was the work of the same person who destroyed Arse's manipulation… it is not possible that it will not"

A woman's voice and a creepy voice echo from behind the wall.

Does Zelenard mean he's in a position to be chased by the Eight Wise Men?

Tremors from inside the wall continue...... are there two of you?

Shortly afterwards, there was a big hole in the wall.

When the surrounding walls collapse, huge white magic formations also appear.

Behind the magic formation were some white men who were building the magic formation.

From other fingers, there is a small magic formation floating like a white crest.

The white man floated above.

Magic formation to prevent my attack and the attack of the Yae Sword.

No, it doesn't seem completely preventable.

"-External demon, bloodthirsty. I only accepted the money and blood. You'll just have to dispose of this one '

"Yes."

"Hundred Eyed Demon Sword/Obstacle Ghost" -

Skills?

A myriad of distorted eyes are born around the Hundred-Eyed Blood Ghost.

Immediately thereafter, the speed of waving the Yae sword doubled.

A magic blade with a mixture of coins flies at an awesome rate.

The devil's blade is powerful, like a circle and moon ring that shines in the color of copper coins.

It was cutting off some of the white magic formations.

It causes damage to the presence of wearing an internal white cloth.

Who wears white cloth is a woman?

It's huge, I can tell it's female shaping... but it's heterogeneous.

< Pile of Darkness "Dusk of Lancer" > is offset by a white magic formation.

Where the Hundred Eyes Blood Ghost chopped up, the White Magic Formation repairs it.

There was another on the white man's shoulder.

He carries a small chair connected to a part of his back.

Sitting in a chair with a back is a child whose skull is exposed from part of his face.

The child is damaged.

Part of his head was snagging, coins piercing, and he was spitting blood out of his mouth.

But he's still alive.

He's staring at me.

Is the lower body of a big woman a giant skirt-shaped thing?

No, things like people integrated with protective clothing are gathering and muscular thriving......

"My lord, are these the white ladies, Zelenard?"

'Probably. But it's only natural to prevent attacks of dark attributes, the lower abdomen is abnormal'

"Yes......"

... have the kind of atmosphere that took the damage.

Is this the white lady?

Literally, they've used the power of the white crest formation to transfer to this place.

I watched the woman's head, not the child.

Blood-like liquid seeps into the surface of a white cloth, but the contours of the face can be seen.

Sounds like a tall nose, let's cheer it up.

And some of them are attacking her, but < Shadowless Walk > doesn't make sense.

The feminine presence wearing a white cloth is attacking. Ignore me and look around the room.

A little late, the white lady waved her long, thin arm...

A giant blade of magic swoops through my arms.

The magic blade flies as it splits in all directions.

It's a magic blade like the ashram Mamani handles.

I avoided that...

"Yay."

The Hundred-Eyed Blood Ghost who was rolling out the Hundred-Eyed Demon Sword/Obstacle Ghost eats a giant Demon Blade in his torso...

Of course, the 100-eyed bloody ghost, who was to eat the counter, lets his body be written and blown away.

Hundred Eyed Blood Ghosts clash with walls.

It was giving birth to a new giant hole.

Is the white lady after this space?

The moon wolf ring no spear shook as my right hand gripped to echo the blade of magic...

The room continues to suffer even more damage as it vibrates blades like magical fluctuations.

The wall, or part of the ceiling here, is going to collapse.

It's a huge hole made from the effects of a failed metastasis, and my magic and the attack of the Pile of Darkness, the Dusk of Lancer, make it worn out.

The underground facility looks sturdy, so I don't think it's going to collapse enough to crush it all...

Part of the ceiling had collapsed.

But the lower body of this white ladylike being is disgusting......

When I looked closely, people like cotton people were creating connected and overlapping meat futon garments...

The ingredients are clothes that are thickened with a mixture of meat, meaty objects, and bulky slime-like objects.

The upper body has an unusually noticeable lower body just normal.

It is similar in shape to the lower part of the demonic prop that was smashed with a dark pile.

Analyzing that, the white lady-like presence sees me.

For a moment, I was afraid.

Because red and black seeped out of the position of the eyes.

Meanwhile, it seems the return of the Hundred-Eyed Blood Ghost is still there.

The man-shaped hole she was able to blow up is dark and invisible.

Looks like they built a giant horizontal hole in the facility.

Ma, she's like a summoned monster...

He ate my fingers and coins and he'll be alive.

"I think it's an occasion to use concubines."

"Not yet, 'cause you could handle it like a hundred-eyed bloody ghost."

……

Living in the inner world of the left hand, Saratin seemed uncommonly convinced and silent.

I was aware of the magic trick.

The white lady, trying to attack Zelenard...

Consider the blood chain attack from the traction of the light strip chain spear Shine Chain Lance.

The demon spear moves from the collaboration of fabric stones using Imoriza... not yet...

The moment - I sensed my partner's movements from behind.

"Ahhh"

"My lord..."

frightened herme warning thoughts.

I know. It's my partner's eighteenth...
