Editing Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume19 Epilogue (section)

===Part 3===

First to be born were the spirits of Light and Darkness.

The spirit of Light illuminated the world while the spirit of Darkness covered the world with a canopy of night.

Next, spirits of Fire and Wind, as well as Water and Earth were born into that world.

The spirits created their own subordinate spirits and set about constructing the world.

Astral World was a perfect paradise of harmony and balance.

When was it that this state of affairs was broken&mdash;?



(...Where am I?)

In a strange dream, Kamito opened his eyes.

His consciousness remained awake. The last thing he could remember was destroying the Demon King Solomon that the angel had summoned.

(...I was swallowed by Ren Ashdoll's power, which took control of my soul.)

In that case, what he was seeing now would not be a dream&mdash;

(...So I've arrived directly in ''her'' mind, huh?)

Inside a space of endless darkness, Kamito slowly stood up.

Held in his hand were two swords, the Vorpal Sword and the Demon Slayer.

The two swords that had been missing in previous dreams.

&mdash;Right now, they were in his hands.

(...I knew it, not a dream. It's my soul that has been trapped in ''her'' consciousness.)

Reaching this conclusion, Kamito gripped his swords tightly.

"&mdash;Fufu, you have finally become mine, my dear adorable child."

"...!?"

The echoing voice made Kamito look around him in surprise.

&mdash;Behind him, dense darkness coalesced.

"Hi, this is actually our first time to meet face to face, you and me."

Facing a presence that seemed to nurture death, feeling a chill down his back, Kamito greeted humorously.

Without his two contracted spirits by his side, he probably would have spoken with trembling words.

"I commend your courage. You have more potential than the brat a thousand years ago who was known as the Demon King."

The mass of darkness flickered and gradually took on human form.

Skin so pale it was like bright snow came into view in the darkness.

Arms and legs as delicate as works of art made of glass. A petite body like a child's.

Furthermore, beautiful hair in the color of night, like that belonging to Kamito's darkness spirit partner.

Her golden eyes, glowing mysteriously, were staring at Kamito with curiosity.

From the girl's back, jet-black wings spread out.

They looked like a canopy of night covering the world&mdash;

Ren Ashdoll, the Darkness Elemental Lord, had appeared
