Editing Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume20 Prologue (section)

===Part 2===

Rumble rumble rumble rumble!

A military ship landed inside the vast premises of Areishia Spirit Academy.

The rumbling of its drive reactor shook the atmosphere violently.

The students in the school building were drawn to the windows by curiosity, looking in surprise at the slowly descending military ship.

This ship was the ''Revenant'' belonging to Team Inferno.

Originally moored at the Imperial Capital of Ostdakia, it had been called over to the Academy.

"Now that was fast. My unworthy disciple evidently fears me quite a lot."

Greyworth remarked, looking up at the ship from the training ground down below.

Previously, her body had temporarily returned to prime condition thanks to effects of the Otherworldly Darkness invading her body, but after Est removed the darkness, she had turned back to her original age. Her power in her youth was far greater than now, but unfortunately that was no longer accessible.

"Headmistress, preparations for Teleport are complete."

"Is that so? Thank you."

Hearing Ms. Freya's report, she turned to the trio behind her.

Gathered on the plaza were&mdash;

Leonora Lancaster, Dracunia's dragon knight. 

Muir Alenstarl, the Instructional School's "Monster."

Velsaria Eva Fahrengart, the Silent Fortress.

These three powerful elementalists were far beyond the Academy's students in capability.

"Are you prepared?"

Greyworth asked.

"How foolish a question, Dusk Witch. A dragon warrior knows no fear."

"Onii-sama is waiting. Of course I have to go."

"Upon the name of House Fahrengart, a knight never goes back on her word."

The trio answered very decisively.

"&mdash;Indeed, I asked you a foolish question."

Smiling wryly, Greyworth shrugged.

Kamito's team had headed to Astral Zero to thwart the Holy Lord's plan.

Learning of this, Greyworth had immediately ordered Vivian Melosa to summon the ''Revenant'' and make preparations to head to Astral Zero.

At the same time, she assembled the most powerful combat team to set off for Astral Zero.

"Velsaria, about linking up with the ''Revenant''&mdash;"

"Yes, my Dreadnought shall surely link up without problems."

Greyworth acknowledged with a brief "I see" after Velsaria nodded.

In the center of the training ground, the <i>Revenant</i>'s giant hull landed.

"Then let us depart&mdash;"

With a flip of her gray overcoat, Greyworth stepped towards the ship.
