Editing Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume5 Chapter6 (section)

===Part 7===

The Savior Queen stood for a long while on the vast mountainous plains, her sword plunged into the ground. 

Her current state was nothing like the Sacred Queen the people knew of – her pure white armor was stained with blood and filth, while her usual optimism was nowhere to be found. 

The girl was battling enemies greater than just the armies of the Demon King. 

She also had to face endless victories and losses, schemes and betrayals. 

Somewhere along the way, the number of people she could trust dwindled down to one – the sword that had fought alongside her the entire journey. 

"Let me ask you, Est..."

"Mistress, what request do you have?"

"Are you willing to stay by my side always?"

The girl broke into a smile reserved only for her best friend – the tender smile of an innocent shepherd girl. 

"I am your sword; I will protect you until the end of your life."

"You are right... You are my sword, and for now that is all that matters."

At Est's emotionless response, the girl smiled a hollow smile. 

"Mistress?"

"But, one day, when the demon king is defeated, when this war is over, I hope you can become – "

Then, the girl had said something – 

Something that, no matter how hard she tried, Est simply could not remember.
