"Nil is probably the most dangerous person when I leave it to my anger.

But there are many people who are indirectly in danger. A lot... really.

"What to carry..."

"There's plenty in Inaya. Nanahi, Chikuru, Atani, of course... but now in Amazonas, after Yanashiri, Inaya is strong, right? Then the lives of all Amazonians are on their shoulders, too?

"Everyone's life..."

"What Yanashiri said to Wamala.

Be aware that it is nine stones.

I don't think this applies even if it's not nine stones.

………………

"As five stones, Inaiah will be responsible for protecting the weaker in battle than he is. In other words, all Amazonas except Yanashiri.

"Nh......"

"If Inaiah fails, all those that Inaiah should protect will die. Think about it.

"Everyone... dies... on my shoulders..."

"Are you scared?

"... scary... on my shoulder..."

"But didn't Yanashiri leave you to the Five Stones, thinking you could do it if you were Inaya?

………

"When I was about to burn myself in anger, I remembered everyone's faces.

"Everybody's face... I'll try it!

"Ha ha ha. It's time to finish your break.

Inaya stood up and stood up with her sword.

"I'm coming!

Kankin '!

The sound of the sword and the slash knife meeting sounds.

He scolds Emmett.

"Nh!......"

Anger appears on his face and his sword muscles are slightly blurred.

Gakin '!!

………

"... you did it.

The sword muscles were blurred, but it was not a move that left me to anger as before. I have a good sense of reason.

"I still can't contain it..."

"Still I was able to move forward. Isn't it?

"... yes!

I've only seen the top of the Buddha, or the face of anger, but for the first time, he showed me a smile, even though it's not sharp.

From that day on, the four grew up tight. In the first place, they had a high status and abundant combat skills and experience, so when they noticed weaknesses, they grew.

They have always tried to be strong, not forgetting what they saw in the past. The growth rate is probably because of the foundation.

One day, about a month after we first came here.

Me and Nil. And four of Nanahi's men were called unto Yanasili.

"Dear Yanashiri,

"There you are.

"What is this...?

The Amazonians are making a circle, just like when I first fought four plus Yanashiri.

"I heard you learned a lot from Sinya recently and got stronger.

"I'm still on my way..."

"Hmm. But lately, I don't think anyone else has any hands or feet.

So I decided to reconfirm the strength of the four.

"So you mean this noise..."

"Well, let's get started… I see. Let's start with the chikuru.

"Yes!!

Chikuru had even met with Atani since he was able to succeed in his pranks. As far as I can see, their abilities have improved considerably, and I honestly look forward to it.

"Call me whenever you want.

"... I'm coming!

Chikuru shook up his seriousness and headed straight for Yanashiri.

……

"Hah!!

When the straightened sword blade passes the middle, Yanashiri's sword rises to catch it. At that moment, Chikuru's swordsmann muscles bend to the right and change from side to side.

Oh, boy!

But it was read. Yanashiri's sword has completely shut down its orbit.

Not yet!

Lift the left foot of the chicken and kick it from the opposite side by staring at Yanashiri's face.

Shit!

"Huh?!

Unfortunately, it was also read, and Yanashiri grabbed my left foot.

"Come on!

"Nh!!

The sword of Yanashiri was swinging down with his left foot grasped.

Gaki!!

I slipped the sword well and used the blade, but the sword was blown backwards every time without being able to hold it. He stood up immediately, but the sword of Yanashiri struck his neck, and the match was decided.

"Well... here we are.

"... ahahaha! All right, Chikuru! Well done!

It's getting stronger. The chikuru will now be six stones!!

"Three stones at once?!

"I've acquired enough strength to do so. Take it with your chest up.

Yanashiri has three hairstyles on his hands.

"... thank you!

There are amazing voices and applauses coming from around Amazones.

"Next, Atani!

"... yes!

"Anytime."

Gakin '!!

Atani waved his sword before the end of Yanashiri's words.

"Huh. Interesting.

"... unexpected.

"But this kind of attack is the beginning.

"... I know.

Gah! Kim!

Atani is throwing in normally. But the air that is targeting something is pumping.

"What are you up to?

"Haaa!

Kakin!

I hear the lightest metallic sound in the meeting so far.

Atani shows him to wave his sword, throws it away, and tries to dive into Yanashiri's palm from below.

Shit!!

However, Yanashiri's feet were stepped out in front of Atani and he lost his destination.

"Here!!

Gakin '!

It was a blow with a straight sword in his back that he thought he had thrown away, but it seemed to be the scope of Yanashiri's predictions.

"Haah!

Baki!

Guu!

Yanashiri's fist catches Atani and is blown away. I was able to accept it, but the match was decided.

"I'm here.

"Hmm. Atani's getting stronger. Six stones!"

"Thank you very much.

"You will continue to refine.

Yes!

"Next... Nanahi.

"Yes!!

"... are you okay?

"Thanks to Sinya and Nil, the heat has changed.

"... Kukuku. Very well. Come on!!"

Yes!

Nanahi crosses two daggers in front of her chest. At that moment, Yanashiri's face changed.

………

………

"Haaa!!

Nanahi, who kicked the ground, filled the distance to Yanashiri as he advanced to Zigzag.

It's the fastest I've ever seen. I don't think they'll be able to react if they're on the same team.

Gah! Kim!

But the opponent is Yanashiri. It completely captures Nanahi's movements.

"Hah! Hah!

Gagging! Gagging!

A quick and sharp attack is approaching Yanashiri. Still, everything has been knocked down.

We haven't taken one more step.

………

Boom!

Yanashiri fires his sword at Nanahi.

If Nanahi had been here before, he would have just fallen back and regained his posture.

"Huh?!

But Nanahi's behavior was the opposite.

The sword pushes and kills the fear that it may catch itself, and runs directly under the blade toward Yanashiri's palm.

"Haaaaaa!!

Giggle giggle!

Nanahi's dagger never reached Yanashiri, but he would have been able to prove his strength enough.

"Khh!! I still can't reach Yanashiri-sama!!

"Ahahah! It's not ten stones that easily arrive!

"Here we go!

"Mm-hmm. Well done. Honestly, I'm surprised. It has grown exponentially.

"Thank you!

"Nanahi is seven stones!!

"Seven stones?!

"Four stones up!

"Unheard of!

Everyone around me makes noise. I wonder how unusual that is.

"Quiet!"

………

"Look at the battle ahead and let those who are complaining step forward!

………………

"Now, admit Nanahi as seven stones!

Four hair decorations are handed over to Nanahi.

"Thank you very much.

It would be a great pleasure for Nanahi. Because it is also proof of defeating trauma.

"Finally, Inaya.

"... yes.

"... come on. Inaya."

"... hah!!

A light attack whilst spinning with Kuruku struck Yanashiri's sword.

Squeaking!

It's a slow part that Inaya didn't have. Though light, the sword speed is out of step.

"Good speed!

Not yet!

Kankin, kankin '!

"Will it still go up? Not as impressive as Nanahi, but brilliant. But...."

Boom!

Inaya shook down a heavy blow from Yanashiri, who was pushing at speed.

Gakin '!

Baki!

Inaya catches the blow. The stepping foot is breaking the ground. Your arms are trembling and standing on edge. But I definitely caught Yanashiri's attack.

"... nnhhhhhhh!!

Gaki!

Push back Yanashiri's sword.

Huh.

"Haaaaa!!!

Ganging!

Turns from a lightweight and fast sword to a heavy and powerful attack.

The goal is to hasten it many times in a series of streams, but it seems we can't get there yet. Yet you will see that Yanashiri has changed the sword of Inaya.

I talked to Inaya a lot... but Emmett's death was unacceptable. That had an impact on everything. Recognition of the presence of our companions allowed us to accept the death of Emmett, albeit a little. It will be transmitted to Yanashiri through the sword.

"Really... Inaya too... ahahaha! Let's go, Inaya!

"Nh!!

Gah! Kim! Gene! Gene!

Yanashiri waved his sword with joy, and the song sword was thrown from Inaya's hand, which could not take it.

"Nh... I'm here.

"Can't you take my sword completely yet?

…………

"Next time you stand in front of me, let me take it. Had it been possible, Inaiah would have been the same eight stones as Emet.

"Huh?!!

"Inaya shall be seven stones!

"... thank you.

The strength test of the four men was thus completed with great success.

Afterwards, Nil and I were called to Yanashiri's tent.

"I'm sorry. I called you.

"I don't mind.

"First of all, that you helped those four. Thank you."

"That's what they do.

"It was Shinya who pulled it out.

"... so? You didn't just call me to say that, did you?

…………

"... the Holy Knights...?

Yanashiri nodded slowly at my words.

"When. How many are there?

"We're already close. There are... at least a thousand.

"Thousands..."

"Twenty of us can fight enough together.

"Twenty to a thousand... and at least...

"A desperate difference...

I'm sorry... you came all the way here to help these kids... and yet... "

"Give up?

"... I'm not giving up. Until the end. I carry the lives of all of us here and the species called Amazones.

But... no matter how strong Sinya is, no matter how strong she has been in my fight... there is an absolute difference that cannot be filled.

Now that I've seen the difference, I've decided we shouldn't stop the Shinyas any longer.

"Do you want me to pretend I don't know and leave?

"We don't have to do it with Amazonas.

Thank you so much for helping those four. That's why we can't let such a benefactor die here.

"Why don't you just run away, Amazonas? If you can get away with the Beast King, you'll have a much higher chance of winning than fighting a thousand here!

"... I hear that the closest town to here, the Wesen tribe, is Delsmark. Our Amazones have never come out of the wilderness of Manitoba. It is a long journey without knowing the way. Do you think we can get there while the Holy Knights chase us?

"If Nil and I show you around!

"The opponent is thousands. If you're surrounded, it's over.

"In that case, I don't mind a city other than the Beast tribe. If this happens, you can run into some city!

"I can't do that.

"Why?!

"Because they're watching us.

"Surveillance...?

"Did you hear about the other races coming to steal the Heart Stone? After that, the King of the Beast tribe stood behind us.

"I heard. That's why you're not involved with other species right now, is it?

"That's right, but there's more to the story.

Do you think the King of the Beasts is the only one behind this, and the others will stand by?

"What do you mean...?

"This is what other species think when the Beast tribe is behind them. I've got all the heart stones left of the Beast clan...

………

"If that happens, it will be a composition of the Wesen vs. other races. That is not what the King of the Beasts wanted.

So, one arrangement was made.

None of our species has a hand in Amazonas.

"So you're monitoring me so I can make sure I'm not doing anything...?

"Exactly. Around this Manitoba wilderness, sightings of all races (also) are arranged.

Of course, that surveillance also has a role to play in keeping us from going anywhere else.

I was just trying to get in touch with the Wesen who were working with me to make a rescue request. It is impossible to let this number escape.

In other words, we Amazones are birds in baskets that can only live in this wilderness.

"What is it... No, wait... if the Holy Knights come in, they'll reject us, right?

"That's not true. There are a few good people standing as sightseeers. Nobody would sell a thousand fights to them. And when I told them the Knights were coming, I didn't want any backup. You know what's going on in the world right now?

"Everything is calculated... so what about the ants' nest? It's like a maze, isn't it? Isn't that how you manage to make the difference?

"The nest of ants is nothing but rainwater that shreds the soil. It collapses easily with a strong shock. It was a miracle that it didn't collapse back then.

It serves only as an escape route. If you run away and get broken on purpose, you won't get stuck. All they have to do is dig up our bodies and retrieve the Heart Stone.

"I don't have a fight..."

"I've already thought about the possible hands many times. I still have no chance of winning.

"... damn it!

"... I'm glad you're angry, but Cynthia and Nil need to run.

"Oh, my God!

"... please. Sinya."

"Eh...."

"I don't want to be unjust. I want you to understand.

"... damn it!

I can't find the word to return, I leave the tent. The face of Yanashiri at the edge of his eyes was an unspeakable expression.

I couldn't reply right away, and on that day I was worried about my head in my tent. After dinner, I was looking at the fire and wondering if I could do something about it.

Master...

"... I'm sorry. Nil, I've been thinking about it all day..."

"Please don't apologize... I'm just like you..."

"I want to do something about it, but I don't know what to do... is there really no way for everyone in Amazonas to be saved anymore...?

"... is it most realistic to go to the Beast clan for help?

"But it's a long way from here to Delsmark. I don't have time to go back and forth now.

Besides, the Beasts will have to prepare themselves for battle with the Holy Knights with the Beasts. They won't be able to send thousands of Knights of the Holy Order to this remote land.

"It's hard to rely on the Wesen...

"But then... there is no place to rely.

"That's right... I don't know what kind of tribe there is left to attack by the Holy Knights..."

"In addition, we don't want the heart stone of Amazonas, but we can't do anything by ourselves, though the conditions are tough.

"But... such a species..."

…………

……………

"... no... I'm here.

"Huh?! Really?!

"It's mostly a beating, but I think it's possible...

"Shouldn't we talk to Yanashiri-sama right away?!

"... I see. Nil, come with me.

Yes!

When I go to Yanashiri's tent, they let me through.

"Sinya... do you understand?

"I understand the current situation. Even if we participate, we have a weak chance of winning.

"... and my suggestion."

"No. Rather, I have a suggestion.

"A proposal from Sinya?

"I've been thinking a lot, and I was wondering if there were any of them who might be able to help Amazonas today.

"That would have been discussed. The most likely Beast tribe is impossible. Of course not for the other species.

"There will be people who have been excluded from the beginning, right?

"From the beginning...?

"... a demon race.

"Demon race...? No, that's impossible. Little is known about its existence, and rumors abhorrent. I don't think they'll help us.

"... Yanashiri.

"... what?

"Can you promise me you'll never tell anyone what you're about to see?

"???... I don't know, but... I swear.

"Nil."

"Yes."

Before I came to the tent, I asked Nil. If Yanashiri had any strange rumors or prejudices, I want her to see Nil for herself.

Naturally, if you see Nir's true appearance, Nir himself and the Demons may be exposed to danger. But I thought if it was Yanashiri, it would be okay.

I thought she would believe Nil, who had spent the past month watching, rather than strange rumors and prejudices.

"Hmm... what is that...?

Nil's body is wrapped in black moya.

Yanashiri panicked with magic he had never seen before. When I nodded, you realized it wasn't dangerous, and calmed me down.

Slowly, as the black moya disappears, the Nir of the demon tribe appears. I was wearing a large robe and adult clothes under it this time, so I'm fine.

"Let it grow?!
