Editing City Series:Volume6a Chapter9 (section)

===Part 6===

The König Pseudo-Drach slowly circled around the Sylphide which had come to a stop in midair with its nose pointed upwards, so it easily caught the girl who left the Sylphide.

The one-armed Heidengeist youth in a black coat caught the Heidengeist girl who jumped down from midair.

He gently held the one-eyed girl while standing on the back of the gliding König Pseudo-Drach.

Hazel looked up while Berger wrapped her in his coat.

She saw that blue blade of a craft in the night sky.

It began accelerating even as it scattered parts. It instantly brushed aside a film of water vapor as it broke the sound barrier. It unleashed a roar and left behind a white dragon-like trail as it grew smaller and smaller in her vision. The light spraying in the sky had to be the Sylphide’s parts.

“Go for it.”

That was all she could say while narrowing her eyes.

Then she saw a small explosion in the direction of the north star at the peak of the northern sky.

The Sylphide had been destroyed.

That light briefly lit up the sky and those looking up at it.

“Ah.”

Hazel’s voice caught in her throat, but Berger spoke to her.

“Keep watching to the end.”

Before he was even done speaking, she heard the roar of the explosion descending from the sky and…

<The Wind will tear open the heavens.>

Orbs of light burst from the site of the explosion.

There were five in all. They were brighter than the stars but far smaller and they flew forcefully in different directions before vanishing.

“It cast off its shell of wind to return home,” said Berger.

Hazel nodded. The wind blew and she belatedly shivered from the cold. Her eye turned toward the König Pseudo-Drach’s cockpit.

It was meant for two.

“Um, Dog.”

She looked up to ask him if three would really fit and found his face right there.

Before she could even question it, he stole her lips.

“–––––!?”

She panicked and her heart raced even in the cold.

A moment later, there was a small explosion of air and water vapor scattered in every direction to reveal her Flektieren.

Her cat form and her clothes fell onto the König Pseudo-Drach’s back and Berger picked them both up in one hand.

Schweitzer looked back from the cockpit as if to tell them to settle down.

“You see, she turns into a cat when she’s tired or whatever,” explained Berger. “But this thing’s only made for two, so that works out.”

Hazel immediately bit his hand hard and a yelp left his mouth.

Schweitzer frowned at the commotion but also tilted the control column forward.

The end of the cloudy ocean came into view where the moon was visible low in the sky.

“The prophecy, hm?” Schweitzer looked back to Berger and cat Hazel. “Two half-humans makes one full one, I suppose.”

He sang the Text to himself.

''The one-armed youth holds the Messiah

''The moonlit pair returns to the earth

''The dragons gather and dance tonight

''Every last thing returns home

“The Messiah implant was destroyed by this girl, but was the prophecy fulfilled? What does that mean, Schweitzer? Is this good enough for Hazel to become the Messiah who will save Germany?”

“I do not know. But the prophecy ''was'' fulfilled.”

“No, not yet, Schweitzer,” corrected Berger. “Hazel still has to return home, but where is that home? It’s not in Germany. You need to follow your leader’s orders and fulfill the prophecy.”

“That is an awful excuse, one-armed one.”

With that, Schweitzer faced forward and leaned the control column over even more.

They began to descend and the Silber caught up with them and flew alongside them.

The colors of the night were all that remained in the sky.
