To Be a Power in the Shadows!

Watch from under the stage.

What the hell is going on?

Iris walks through the King's Capital in the middle of the night soaking up his red hair.

The building was slashed, he said. The first report was suspicious of the ears. But half-heartedly, under Iris headed to the scene, one after the other.

There have been massive simultaneous raids in the Wang capital.

It didn't take long to get to that conclusion. But there is no unity in the destination of the raid. Chambers of commerce, warehouses, restaurants, aristocratic private residences…. Definitely a planned offense first, but I don't see its purpose.

But as a matter of fact, the king's capital was shaking.

The Knights have taken an emergency mission and have begun evacuating dignitaries. Citizens spy through windows despite the late night, and few head to the wild horses.

Iris rushes to the scene as he yells at the walking citizen to return to his house.

Something is happening.

Undoubtedly, this is not an ordinary case.

That's what Iris' intuition said.

and then.

A scream reached Iris' ear.

"Then it's a monster!! Backup...!!

It's the Knights voice. Not that far.

Iris changes direction and rushes under screams.

Turning the corner, he proceeded through the alley, and when he went out onto the boulevard, there was a monster there.

It's an ugly giant monster.

It wields an enlarged blood-coated right nail and turns the knights into a meat mass.

"What is this?"

Whimpering, Iris was moving.

"Get away from me!

A flowing razor blade, and a white blade sparkled in the dark night, passing through the carcass of the monster.

Double cut.

I double-broke the monster giant with just one machete.

"Are you hurt?

Iris speaks to the Knights after the falling monster.

"Dear Iris, thank God...!

"Master Boulder Iris! That thing's a knife!

Their bodies were intact. All the living knights here were almost intact.

Yes, the living knight.

"Eight people killed."

All the dead take a blow.

Wine red eyes swayed with sadness at that tragic body.

"You guys retrieve the bodies and back off. Report to the captain..."

"Dear Iris!

Suddenly, one of the knights screamed.

While pointing behind Iris, the others raised a cry that was silent.

"Wha...!

Iris waves his sword aggressively as he looks back.

Iris' sword and the right arm of the compound collided.

"Kuh......!

Iris instantly unleashed an enormous amount of magic as he was about to lose his strength for a moment, and took a brilliant look at its auspicious arms.

And as he dives straight into the pocket of the monster, he now rips off its leg, prepends the counterattack of the monster and takes off the intermission.

Shortly afterwards, the right arm of the compound cleared the space where Iris was, involving a few of her long red hair.

"Playing...?

There were no more scratches that she had broken earlier, and the leg scratches she had just put on were beginning to regenerate.

"Stupid... Iris interrupted me to play it, etc..."

"You're lying..."

"Stand back."

Iris spoke to the upset knights and took the pursuit of the monster.

The blow is fast, powerful, and heavy.

But monotonous.

"It's a monster."

Iris' counterattack was unforgiving.

Chop arms, drop legs, and fly neck.

If I could play it, I told him to try it, and he showered me with a series of shots just saying so.

I won't allow you to fight back. I just unilaterally chopped it up.

But still.

"It still plays."

The monster was alive.

He regained his position in the gap where Iris' series of attacks stopped for a moment, wielding his right arm to get rid of Iris.

And.

I let out a tall roar in the night sky.

Rain falls out of the moon's hidden sky, as if to respond to it.

At first with potpourri, potpourri. It gradually gains momentum and raises white smoke when it hits the blood of the chemical.

"It's going to take a while..."

Iris gave up early settlement and chose the path to sit back and fight.

I don't think I'll lose. Once upon a time, Iris never thought he'd lose.

but it will take some time accordingly.

Iris lays down his sword and walks to the regenerated compound.

Immediately after.

Iris' sword is played along with the tall sound.

An awesome shock paralysed Iris' arm.

Iris stares at the sudden intruder with a love sword that flies far, backward, and around.

The intruder also glances at Iris.

It was the intruders who had their gaze bumped and broken the silence first.

"How can you not know it will only make you suffer?"

That was a woman in a pitch-black bodysuit. My face is hidden and invisible, but my voice is still young.

"Who is it?"

Iris asks, not alarmed, with both a pitch-black woman and a monster in his sight.

"Alpha"

The woman said that one word and turned her back on Iris just saying that she had lost interest already.

"Wait, what the hell are you going to do? If you are hostile to the Knights, forgiveness is..."

"Hostile......?

Alpha blocked Iris' words and laughed with her back turned.

Kutsukutsu and, like, ridicule.

"What's wrong?"

"Hostile...... could there be such a funny word. A fool who knows nothing is hostile."

"What...!

Iris' magic swelled up. Its immense magic spread into waves, causing the rain to undo the wind.

But to Iris like that, Alpha didn't even glance. Keep your back turned unchanged,

"The audience just have to watch the stage like an audience. Get out of our way."

Just leave that out and walk to the monster.

I didn't feel anything behind it, and I didn't see Iris anymore.

"The audience..."

Iris squeezes behind him, still squeezing his palms that paralyze him.

"Poor thing. It would have hurt."

Alpha just walked and spoke to the monster.

"I will not suffer anymore. There's nothing to grieve about."

A pitch-black knife stretched. Longer than the back length of the alpha.

"So don't cry anymore"

And just naturally stepped in and broke off the body of the compound.

Nobody, couldn't react.

Iris, and the chemicals, watched as they were slashed without even being able to react.

It was too natural. There was no killing or anything, it was just there as a natural consequence of being slashed.

The giant of the monster collapsed. It shriveled as it raised white smoke, becoming as small as a girl. And a dagger spills off its left arm.

That's a dagger with red jewels.

"To My Beloved Daughter Miriam"

The pattern was so engraved.

"If I may... I will live in peace in the next life"

That's what Alpha said, disappearing into the white smoke.

There was a thunder in the distance.

Iris stood still. The pouring rain tells my hair and flows through my face.

My body was trembling.

Iris didn't know what this tremor meant.

"Alexia......"

Iris shrugged. At the heart of this commotion, I have a sister. Such a hunch moved Iris.

"Alexia, stay safe..."

Iris picks up the sword and runs out.

The rain kept falling hard.
