Iris didn't solve the battle posture immediately - no, he couldn't.

The girl, who suddenly appeared in front of her, never looked at Rustyle, who fell and lay down.

"Oh, this is the second one."

I smile like a three-day moon and I run that thing through my mouth. I didn't know what that number meant, but finally the girl turns her gaze towards Iris.

Iris gripped the pattern of "Purple Electricity" strongly and set it up.

"... who the hell are you?

"If you ask people for names, come on, why don't you name them from yourself?

The girl shrugged her shoulders and said away.

Compared to Illis, the girl is not yet in a state of collision. However, the knife remains unplugged.

tingling and is it killer to feel on the skin - after a lot of silence, Iris breathes out a small amount to name it.

"... it's Iris Reinfel"

"! Illis......? Iris," Princess Kensei "?

"Yeah, that's what they call it."

"Oh well! Then no!

When the girl says so, she accidentally throws a knife over the sky. The knife spinned beautifully and arrived at the girl's sheath. It's like a part of my body - no, I'm more free to handle a knife than that.

... Indeed, the girl's blow was unintentional.

But Rustyle of Swordsmen must have noticed her presence just before she was attacked.

She buried the swordsmen in a blow so powerful and fast that she didn't know if she could prevent it.

Even as the girl delivered the knife, Illis remained in a state of imminent war.

"Don't be so vigilant. I'm Ruino Tomra, and I'm on your side."

"Allies...? What do you mean?"

"Hit, it means as words go. Your people - I'm not gonna do you any harm!

Hitting and changing from earlier, Ruino smiles like a girl of the year.

But Iris did not miss hearing the 'words' contained in that statement.

"'To you' means you're after 'someone else'?

"! Uh, I guess that's what they take me for, too. More than that, your outfit is a hobby?

"What outfit -!"

Iris is pointed out and hides his chest like he was in a hurry. The swimsuit had first been slashed by Rustille. I get noticed for the fact that my chest is more than Ruino. Still again, Illis tells Ruino off.

"... I told you before, I can't just show up and trust you for doing this."

"'This is what'? That means you jumped this swordsman's neck?

Ruino snaps his neck.

At the same age as Illis, people can kill without any stray - at that point, from Illis, Ruino was an anomaly. I know Ruino is here at some request, but I couldn't understand more and more her presence naming her allies.

Continue the words, with Ruino giggling with a tickle.

"Maybe... you, you've killed people... you haven't?

"Huh! You bet! That doesn't make it any easier."

"Nah. If it's called the Kensei princess, I thought you had slashed some. So, what are you holding the sword for?

"For what... now that's the story -"

"It's important. 'Cause you keep your sword against me. Why are you pointing your sword at me when you're not even willing to kill me?

"... even if you weren't willing to kill me, you're only a suspicious opponent from me, that's all. So I'll capture you if I have to."

"Hit, oh shit! I knew I wasn't going to kill you! Hit it, then come on...... for example, what if I told you I was going to kill Alta Schweitz?

――

Listening to Ruino's remarks, the look on the face of Illis becomes filled with anger.

Running out and slashing down immediately - suppressing that urge, Illis calmly confronted Ruino.

"Putting out Dr. Schweitz's name means you know the teacher?

"Hmm, I don't know you or anything. The knights of the kingdom are in a cooperative relationship."

"Working with knights......? You?"

"Hit, that's the thing. People like the Knights Commander are here, so ask them later. But unfortunately..."

Walk out with your back to Illis, as if Ruino had lost interest.

Illis immediately moves to stop Ruino, but at the moment - deliberately at the tip of the purple power sword - Ruino hit his chest. Stop moving reflexively and prevent the blade from sticking out on Ruino.

Seeing Iris like that, Ruino gives a chilling look.

"Why did you stop?

"Hey, why..."

"You just moved to stop me, didn't you? And yet you didn't kill me now. I made it so unprotected and easy for you to kill. That's why I said I'm sorry. I watched your battle from afar. Strong enough... but that's all. I don't have a clear will to kill someone there. Well, then, no. If you're going to fight with your sword, you have to kill them."

"... if I have to, I will"

"That you don't need to do that now? I explicitly proclaimed," Kill Alta Schweiz "? Hit me, that's why I say sweet! Actually, for a little while, I was wondering if I could try to fight... you don't. Because I'm not interested in the sword of someone who doesn't wave it for me."

When Luino runs out that far, he flips again.

Ruino's words were a criticism of Illis. Indeed, the sword of Illis is not an attempt to kill an opponent.

Even before, I didn't mean to kill them. Because the sword of Illis is only, 'a sword to protect someone'.

What Ruino denies was the very way of life of Illis.

"Wait! I can't just leave you like this."

Humph, the sound of cutting the wind reaches the ears of Illis.

Ruino pulled out the knife again. Point the blade tip at Illis and stare.

"I do, I only shake a knife for me. Like you, I'm not going to have a sweet fight 'if I have to'. If you decide to fight, it's only a 'death fit'. If you can't do that, don't interrupt."

"... eh"

One touch instant. We're pointing weapons at each other, but if Illis stepped out here, it develops into a kill. At least, Illis can see that a girl named Ruino wants it.

Could it be possible to capture her, even if she accidentally buried the swordsmen lightly, by doing so - there was a stray in Illis.

Ruino leaves with his knife in his sheath, as if he had seen through the stray.... if we set it up again, this time it will be a definite kill.

"I..."

... Now Illis waves his sword at 'To Protect Someone'.

Fighting Ruino only means killing each other - yes, I had a hunch for Illis too. It is true that she defeated the swordsmen, the enemies of Illis, and that is reality.

lost, but when Illis tried to take a step to stop Ruino,

"Mr. Iris, are you all right!

"! Schweitz, Doctor......!?

Alta's voice reaches her ear from behind, and Iris looks back in surprise.

Recall what Ruino said earlier, and soon Illis enters a state of battle - but when Ruino sent his gaze in the direction he was in, there was no sign of her there.
