		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;==Chapter 11 - Angels of the Otherworld==  ===Part 1===  &amp;quot;...Ah, ooh, ahhhhh... Ahhhhhhhhh!&amp;quot;  The darkness dripping out from Millennia Sanctus&amp;#039; left eye was spreading out on t...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;==Chapter 11 - Angels of the Otherworld==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 1===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Ah, ooh, ahhhhh... Ahhhhhhhhh!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The darkness dripping out from Millennia Sanctus&amp;#039; left eye was spreading out on the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This dense darkness was able to corrupt Elemental Lords and render them insane&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Millennia writhed in pain, tearing at her left eye.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spilled darkness stained her pure white vestments, gradually swallowing her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! What the heck are you doing&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Faced with the girl who was being devoured by the darkness that she herself was generating, Kamito had no idea what to do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Was she unable to control the Otherworldly Darkness?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No. No way in hell&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This cardinal had controlled the Otherworldly Darkness many times before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, be careful.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gripped in his right hand, Est spoke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;There is something inside.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...What!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fufuf, so you sensed it, my little sister&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With half her body swallowed by Otherworldly Darkness, Millennia jeered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The Otherworldly Darkness within me is a catalyst for opening a gate&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Did you say gate?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;To summon... The Otherworld...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The restless Otherworldly Darkness completely swallowed Cardinal Millennia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Turned into a hovering black sphere in the air, it started vibrating with an earsplitting sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What is going on...?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, hurry, destroy it&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! Got it!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing Est&amp;#039;s urgent voice, Kamito instantly reacted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Seventh Form&amp;amp;mdash;Biting Dragon!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He unleashed all the divine power gathered in his feet in one go and flew to the air to execute an anti-air interception Absolute Blade Art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The glow of divine power left a trail of light in the night, dashing through the air like a long dragon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wwwwwn!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An invisible barrier appeared around the sphere, deflecting the silver-white blae.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...What!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Almost like bouncing away, Kamito was sent flying to crash into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito landed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...What the heck was that just now!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Was it a wall generated by a barrier, or spirit magic&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! I can&amp;#039;t believe it deflected the Demon Slayer...?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito looked up and stared into space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, a crack suddenly appeared in the center of the dark sphere that had swallowed Millennia&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next instant, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;the sphere was ripped apart from within&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Spurting out like blood, Otherworldly Darkness fell all at once, dyeing the ruins black.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next, two glowing arms emerged from the center of the torn open sphere.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito instantly felt his hairs stand on end with goosebumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He felt it instinctively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This was something that did not belong in this world&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dark sphere was shredded then &amp;#039;&amp;#039;it&amp;#039;&amp;#039; appeared in this world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An effigy of a warrior, three times a human&amp;#039;s height, with golden glowing wings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The beautiful face formed from pure white stone looked both masculine and feminine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Glowing with bright light, the jewel-like eyes looked down coldly at the earth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...A spirit?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muttering in his thoughts, Kamito decided no and shook his head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...No. I&amp;#039;ve seen something similar to it before&amp;amp;mdash;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the Forest of Ice Blossoms in Laurenfrost, merged with the dominating ice spirit Zirnitra.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thing possessing Rinslet&amp;#039;s younger sister Judia Laurenfrost&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inside the Otherworldly Darkness surging in the Elemental Lord&amp;#039;s shrine, Kamito had seen it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...An angel.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cold sweat slowly dripped down the back of his hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Demon Slayer in his hand likewise shook slightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Millennia Sanctus had said that she was the gate for summoning it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To summon this visitor from the Otherworld, neither the human realm nor Astral Zero&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel slowly descended to the ground and manifested a single-edged sword in its hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sword&amp;#039;s length was twice that of the Demon Slayer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Facing off against it, Kamito readied the Demnon Slayer and poured divine power into his sword.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the glowing silver-white sword spoke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, I know. It&amp;#039;s&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I was created for the purpose of destroying them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Huh?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing what Est said, Kamito asked in return.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est, you know that thing?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. The primordial memories sleeping inside me told me. I am&amp;amp;mdash;No, the original purpose of every spirit weapon created in this world was to destroy such angels.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Held in his hand, Est was exuding an astounding amount of hostility from her blade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was like a beast facing a natural enemy with an unforgivable grudge&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Spirit weapons huh&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That term had been uttered by Est herself a number of times before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were powerful weapons used to annihilate spirits during the Spirit War. Like her, Ortlinde the Scarlet Valkyrie was also a spirit weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If their original purpose was to fight angels from the Otherworld&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...Then who was it that created them?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As though to interrupt Kamito&amp;#039;s thoughts&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel made a sound in a strange pitch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Kamito, it is coming.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel acted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It slid over like gliding on the ground. In the next instant, it suddenly disappeared fro sight.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immense mass, moving with subsonic momentum&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In response, Kamito used the Demon Slayer to block.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mustering his entire body&amp;#039;s divine power, he strained his hardest to resist the earth-shattering impact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, I need even more divine power&amp;amp;mdash;Or else we will be overwhelmed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! I&amp;#039;m already doing my best!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even though he had drawn upon such a massive amount of divine power in one breath, Kamito was still pushed back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With his feet scraping against the ground, Kamito was pushed against a building in the training ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Cough... Huff&amp;amp;mdash;!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His breathing stopped momentarily, Kamito spat out blood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without Est&amp;#039;s Protection of Steel, he might have been crushed to death.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In front of his eyes was an eerie beautiful face carved from pure white stone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without any expression, it kept muttering strange notes the whole time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...! What is with this brute strength... Ah...!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Compared to the graceful looking appearance, its strength far surpassed even that of large militarized spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Combat memory domain connection established. Analysis complete&amp;amp;mdash;Kamito, this is Dunamis&amp;lt;!--kanji reads &amp;quot;angel of power&amp;quot;, katakana reads duminas (middle two katakana switched), but Greek word for &amp;quot;power&amp;quot; used in Bible is dunamis. Given the angel connection, I&amp;#039;m going with dunamis.--&amp;gt;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What? That&amp;#039;s this thing&amp;#039;s name?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No, a classification to distinguish type. The ones seen before were reconnaissance type, but this one is&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the angel&amp;#039;s shoulders split open to sprout multiple arms wielding swords of light.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;A pure combat type&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! Ohhhhhhhh!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito shouted. Kicking against the wall in the training ground with one put, he allowed the gathered divine power to explode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Seventh Form&amp;amp;mdash;Biting Dragon Revised!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The power of this anti-air Absolute Blade Art was supposed to be directed vertically, but he unleashed it towards the front.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Boom&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sound like a cannonball, the wall was instantly blown away. The surging divine power dug up a huge hole in the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The contact point of the blade erupted with violent sparks. The angel&amp;#039;s gigantic body was pushed back for an instant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In that instant, Kamito deflected an incoming blade and swiftly turned around. Lowering his stance, he lunged at the enemy&amp;#039;s chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, First Form&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the angel&amp;#039;s two wings resonated together to produce strange noise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, something resembling tiny glowing runes kept appearing, deploying around the angel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...Defense magic!? It&amp;#039;s not gonna work!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfazed, Kamito unleashed his sword move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Purple Lightning, Flare!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sword traveling with godlike speed at pointblank range erupted with lightning as it struck the angel squarely in belly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the sacred sword&amp;#039;s tip, concentrated with divine power, was blocked by the barrier of glowing runes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...What!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those runes, swiftly rotating around the angel, seemed to resemble High Ancient a little.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...! What, so it isn&amp;#039;t spirit magic!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Anti-field&amp;amp;mdash;this rejection barrier has nullified my steel attribute &amp;#039;&amp;#039;on a conceptual level&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What the heck!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Not spirit magic. A rewriting of rules. A phenomenon not of this world&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A halo appeared on the angel&amp;#039;s head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiii&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Making a howl resembling supersonic waves, it blew Kamito away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Guh&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito somersaulted while regaining balance then immediately readied his sword.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Did you say your steel attribute has been nullified? What do you mean?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Reconnecting to combat memory domain&amp;amp;mdash;Begin analysis.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Est said that, words of High Ancient appeared on her blade and flowed swiftly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est? What the heck are you doing&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Due to contact with natural enemy, part of the spirit weapon&amp;#039;s memory domain has been released. Kamito, I will analyze the barrier. Until that is done, please buy time for now.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He heard Est&amp;#039;s calm voice in his mind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;If I buy time, you&amp;#039;ll have a way to deal with that cheating barrier?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, Kamito. Upon the name of Terminus Est&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Demon Slayer held in his hands glowed with silver-white light.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In front of the enemy, Est&amp;#039;s original combat mode seemed to be awakening.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...I got it. I&amp;#039;m counting on you, Est.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While creating distance to face off, Kamito cautiously bided his time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although the subsonic movement was a threat, it was not impossible to evade as long as he discerned the activation time of the movement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(&amp;amp;mdash;Ren Ashbell isn&amp;#039;t gonna lose in contest of speed.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel spread its wings of light and raised one hand to the sky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, runes of light turned into countless rings, capturing several demon spirits floating in the air.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...What the heck is going on this time?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the Demon Slayer readied, Kamito remained alert.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As though issuing an order, the angel swung a giant sword forcefully down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next instant, a demon spirit roared and charged at Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The demon spirit opened their jaws to reveal terrifying teeth and flew at him like a cannonball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...Don&amp;#039;t tell me it can take control of demon spirits!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was different from how elementalists employed spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was almost like the spirit&amp;#039;s existence itself was rewritten&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito instantly reacted and swung his sword&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Third Form&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, no!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est&amp;#039;s voice rang out. In the nick of time, Kamito chose evasion instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next, the demon spirit exploded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The violent explosion continued to ring in his ears. Kamito rolled on the ground, dodging the heat wave.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If he had struck the demon spirit directly instead of evading, he would have been blown to bits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Spirits can become suicide bombers?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. It overwrote the demon spirit&amp;#039;s nature to launch a suicide attack.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It can even do that!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While dodging the demon spirits that kept flying over to attack, Kamito muttered to himself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel raised its hand again, seizing control of the demon spirits that kept flowing through the crack in space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Damn this&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Heat waves from the explosions were scorching Kamito&amp;#039;s skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was like using the massive divine power possessed by spirits, turning it into the energy for an explosion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, this would be like nonstop creation of small auto-tracking spirit detonations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using an elemental waffe specialized for close quarters combat against them would be really poor compatibility.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...It&amp;#039;s not like I can summon Restia back, right?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If he called Restia back now, Claire would have to fight alone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aiming at Kamito who had evaded the bombardment, the angel shot a new demon spirit projectile.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...Infinite ammo!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He looked up at the reddened sky and grumbled in his thoughts. Just then...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, Kamito noticed a change in the surrounding scenery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Two moons?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hanging in the sky over the Academy was Astral Zero&amp;#039;s moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 2===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...W-What is going on!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In front of the collapsed ruins, Claire looked around in astonishment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like a mist of blood, the demon realm&amp;#039;s miasma was hanging all around, greatly decreasing visibility.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...The familiar environment of the Academy was practically a different scene.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Astral Shift has happened.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia spoke softly and calmly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Astral Shift?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even an honors student like Claire had never heard of the term.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a phenomenon when the human realm and Astral Zero temporarily overlap. Although it occasionally happens inside the Spirit Forest, I have never seen one on such a large scale.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;W-What is that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire spoke with an unsettled look.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Isn&amp;#039;t the point of creating the gate is to summon demon spirits?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Claire was in confusion, a great number of demon spirits were still pouring through. The crack slicing through the air became even larger. Large demon spirits started to show up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I clearly destroyed the ruins here&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Looks like the Astral Shift is limited to the Academy&amp;#039;s premises. Had these ruins not been destroyed, perhaps the entire Academy town would have been superimposed with the demon realm.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Then that means there must be a set of ruins yet to be destroyed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia&amp;#039;s sunset-colored eyes stared into the distance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire noticed a measure of worry in those eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(The darkness spirit is worried about Kamito.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She must want to hurry over to Kamito&amp;#039;s side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire gripped Flametongue tightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Go, darkness spirit&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Huh?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Leave this place for Scarlet and me to handle. You go back to Kamito&amp;#039;s side&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Claire Rouge...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia thought for a while&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Unacceptable. I promised Kamito to protect you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She soon shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;After Scarlet&amp;#039;s true name release, your divine power must be depleted.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Uh...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire bit her lip.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was right, Claire had definitely consumed quite a lot of her energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But even so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I will protect myself. After all, I am Kamito&amp;#039;s teammate.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing such words from Claire&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia shrugged and sighed lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Fine. Claire Rouge, I have revised my opinion of you a bit.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saying that, she plucked a few feathers from her black wings and handed them to Claire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...These are?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Talismans of Darkness. They will surely protect you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The feathers of darkness spirit Restia were commonly known as Blessings of Darkness.&amp;lt;!--actual katakana says &amp;quot;bless of darkness&amp;quot; but that&amp;#039;s just too Engrishy--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were supreme talismans that could not be bought from any shop no matter how much one desired them. In the past, there was even one time when a major nation&amp;#039;s royal family started a war because of them. Legendary artifacts indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, Claire had no idea the priceless value of the gift.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Th-Thank you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She obediently accepted them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;I entrust Kamito to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Of course&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia nodded then spread her jet-black wings and flew into the night sky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 3===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two moons, red and white, were hanging in the sky over the Academy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking at Astral Zero&amp;#039;s moon, Kamito was rooted to the spot in astonishment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What&amp;#039;s happening, Est?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even though he asked his partner, she did not reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was evidently focusing her full attention to analyzing the Dunamis angel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(&amp;amp;mdash;Millennia said it was to make the human realm and Astral Zero overlap.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Astral Shift referred to such a phenomenon?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(What&amp;#039;s the purpose of doing that...?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But wait, the enemy in front of him was more important right now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Dumanis kept rewriting the demon spirits flowing out of the gate to become spirit detonations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Perhaps due to the Astral Shift&amp;#039;s effect, the surroundings were gradually corrupted by the demon realm&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The demon spirits serving as raw materials became much larger than before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Kamito dared not imagine their firepower.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel&amp;#039;s wings glowed with blistering light.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;mdash;At the same time, it swung down its massive sword like an executioner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seven spirit detonations formed from large demon spirits instantly rushed at Kamito in a charging attack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since their firepower had increased, Kamito concluded that dodging them by paper-thin margins like earlier would not work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He had no method of handling suicide bombs coming from seven different directions at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(What can I do? Should I use steel magic to create daggers out of divine power and pierce all seven at the same time?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No good. The demon spirits were all mid-level or above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using spirit magic to create improvised weapons would not be enough to cause damage, probably.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(I have to take a gamble and use Purple Lightning&amp;#039;s godlike speed to race against the explosions&amp;amp;mdash;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito concentrated a great amount of divine power at his feet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure meant getting blown to bits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, First Form&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;O black lightning, even capable of incinerating souls to oblivion—Hell Blast!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;mdash;A second just before Kamito released his divine power...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Raging jet-black lightning pierced the seven large demon spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
BOOOOOOOOOOM!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Deafening explosions. A terrifying chain reaction took place. Heat from the scorching flames made Kamito&amp;#039;s skin hurt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While shielding his eyes from the flying sparks, Kamito looked up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only to see amid the blazing flames that seemed to incinerate the night sky&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Flapping her jet-black wings, the darkness spirit slowly descended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Restia!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fufu, looks like you are in quite a tough battle, Kamito&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spirit seal on his left hand glowed especially brightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Landing on the ground, Restia raised her hand lightly and extinguished the blazing flames.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Restia, why&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The ruins over there have been destroyed by Claire Rouge.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia replied to the surprised Kamito who was inquiring about what had happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Claire is fine, right?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I have her some feathers to serve as talismans. She should be able to endure until she converges with her companions.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia chuckled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You go back to Kamito&amp;#039;s side&amp;amp;mdash;That was what she said. What an adorable child.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Really&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire&amp;#039;s feelings warmed Kamito&amp;#039;s heart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;If you&amp;#039;re worried about little miss hell cat, hurry up and defeat that thing.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah, you&amp;#039;re right&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito nodded boldly and took Restia&amp;#039;s hand immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Come, ruler of the night. O merciless goddess of darkness&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thou art the sword of wisdom, the piercer of truth&amp;amp;mdash;!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He chanted the words of release for an elemental waffe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;mdash;The Demon Slayer and the Vorpal Sword.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wielding the ultimate sacred and demon swords, Kamito faced the Dunamis angel again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Sorry for making you wait. I am Ren Ashbell, the Strongest Blade Dancer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel&amp;#039;s wings of light flashed. That sculpture-like beautiful face still showed no expression&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But it looked confused, apparently.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, analysis of concept barrier is complete&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Words of High Ancient appeared on Est&amp;#039;s blade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;There is nothing which the ultimate steel cannot cut.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well done, Est.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, Kamito.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An image of Est puffing out her chest with pride appeared in his mind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Let&amp;#039;s go, you two&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I am your sword, your wish is my command&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two spirit swords replied at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite bickering frequently, the two of them were very in sync when taking action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Dunamis raised its great sword. Emitting strange noise, it created bombs out of demon spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Stop thinking you&amp;#039;ll win by repeating the same old move!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito took a deep breath and kicked the ground hard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While shouting, he aimed at the demon spirits raining down on him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;O darkness, go and pierce&amp;amp;mdash;Vorpal Blast!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using Ren Ashbell&amp;#039;s signature move, he annihilated them in one strike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between the flames and heat waves, Kamito enveloped himself in divine power and charged in one go.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, First Form&amp;amp;mdash;Purple Lightning Revised!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Drawing the Demon Slayer, he released divine power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, Kamito closed in on his target, stabbing the silver-white sword into armor that resembled a breastplate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Runes of light appeared in front of the sword&amp;#039;s tip to form a barrier, but&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, runes of light likewise appeared on the Demon Slayer and neutralized the generated barrier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The silver-white blade pierced the breastplate, shattering that marble-like body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(The attack worked!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito cheered in his thoughts. Immediately...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aiming at the angel&amp;#039;s massive stumbling body, he unleashed a series of sword moves in continuous succession&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Third Form&amp;amp;mdash;Shadowmoon Waltz!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Sixth Form&amp;amp;mdash;Crushing Fang!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Fourth Form&amp;amp;mdash;Blaze Slash!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Introductory Form—True Bursting Cherry Blossom Flurry!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Third Form, Alpha Variant&amp;amp;mdash;Shadowmoon Waltz, Major Double Turn!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Seventh Form&amp;amp;mdash;Biting Dragon Double Blossom!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every strike of the Absolute Blade Arts, each capable of a one-hit kill, connected&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The armor covering the angel began to flake off and crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Second Form&amp;amp;mdash;Obverse Meteor, Peerless Zetsura!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A dual-wielding technique using his entire body, he sent the Dunamis&amp;#039; massive body flying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Crash!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smashing against the ruins, the angel lost an arm that snapped off tragically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;lt;&amp;amp;mdash;La&amp;amp;mdash;La...&amp;amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel seemed unable to comprehend the phenomenon before its eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Expressionlessly, it looked down at its damaged part.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...What now? First time getting hurt?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito grinned savagely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He could feel a violent power that was sleeping inside him gradually awaken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The divine power&amp;#039;s glow covering his entire body had turned black in color.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After he had exhausted his own divine power, Ren Ashdoll&amp;#039;s power was starting to surge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the angel&amp;#039;s massive body slowly stood up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It swung its sword to point straight up at the sky, rewriting the demon spirits that were flying to and fro.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Ha, don&amp;#039;t you remember anything at all&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito used the Vorpal Sword to summon jet-black demon lightning. However&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instead of charging at Kamito, the demon spirits gathered around the injured angel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What the...?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as the strangely shaped cluster of demon spirits touched the angel&amp;#039;s armor&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were absorbed like melted ice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel&amp;#039;s damaged body began to gradually regenerate&amp;amp;mdash;or rather, reconstruct itself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...What the heck, are you kidding me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito groaned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;It is rewriting the demon spirit&amp;#039;s structure to meld with itself.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Where does it get so many cheating skills from...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing Est&amp;#039;s voice in his mind, Kamito could not help but exclaim in despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel&amp;#039;s entire body was covered by armor resembling a hard shell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(...Come to think of it, the angel at Laurenfrost also merged with spirits and ice dragons.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, Kamito recalled that incident.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was like they had the authority to freely write this world&amp;#039;s existence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That was practically...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Damn it. Looks like it&amp;#039;s a waste of effort I don&amp;#039;t finish it off in one attack.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito shrugged and laughed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Confronted with such an absurd being, his only choice was to laugh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(&amp;amp;mdash;Bursting Blossom Spiral Blade Dance, I guess?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito regulated his breathing while readying his two swords in a stance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most destructive of the Absolute Blade Arts, meant to be used against large spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If even this move failed to work&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Then we&amp;#039;re dead meat&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito muttered to himself sardonically. Just then&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Decisiveness is a virtue, but there is only a fine line dividing it from recklessness, lad.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A voice spoke to him from across the sea of fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito looked back, only to see a petite girl in a gray overcoat appear before him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Carrying an ominous demon sword with the color of blood, the girl was making her way towards him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Under the hood, he could catch glimpses of gray eyes, glimmering faintly in the darkness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...! You&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speechless, Kamito widened his eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The girl took off her hood, her gray hair instantly fluttering in the wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Greyworth!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito&amp;#039;s shout echoed all around.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, she was none other than&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Greyworth who had gone missing after falling down the canyon in Dracunia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having regained her youth as well as her peak capabilities, she had become an assassin for the Holy Kingdom&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Greyworth, I knew it, you&amp;#039;re still alive!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Of course. How could the Witch be dead?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saying that, the youthful Greyworth grinned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing that especially nostalgic expression, Kamito understood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...You&amp;#039;ve regained your memory?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Yes. I remember everything. Everything.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greyworth nodded and looked towards the angel that kept absorbing demon spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Twenty-four years ago, I saw it too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Twenty-four years ago&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the year when Greyworth Ciel Mais had won the Blade Dance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;However, let us leave that story for later. We must end this before it finishes reconstructing itself.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah, you&amp;#039;re right&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Dunamis angel&amp;#039;s armor was bulging. Its weight was enough to crush the ground underfoot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the demon spirits, it was even starting to absorb the ruins sustaining the gate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greyworth drew a blood-colored demon sword&amp;amp;mdash;the elemental waffe Vlad Dracul.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Likewise, Kamito readied his two swords and stood beside her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell, the Strongest Blade Dancer, and the Dusk Witch&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Can you keep up with me, lad?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I was gonna ask you the same thing. By the way, didn&amp;#039;t I win that blade dance at Dracunia?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I had lost my memory then. Doesn&amp;#039;t count.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...You&amp;#039;re going with that excuse? Whatever. I&amp;#039;d win no matter how many times we tried again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh? You&amp;#039;ve upgraded your mouth, the boy who used to work as a maid in my mansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Do me a favor and lose your memory again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two bickered while amplifying their divine power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;End the battle in one strike. It&amp;#039;ll be bad if Ren Ashdoll&amp;#039;s power continues to eat away at me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;My intention all along&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both of them kicked the ground at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like a flash of purple lightning, they instantly rushed to to the gigantic Dunamis angel to engage in close quarters combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel raised four arms and entered a defensive stance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;Can you break them, Greyworth?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hmph, who do you think you&amp;#039;re talking to?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel roared. Against the slashing attacks that were like a storm&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With fluid motions to evade, Greyworth delivered heavy blows aimed at the joints.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Dance, Alternate Form&amp;amp;mdash;Ice Storm Rakshasa!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A vine of ice shot out from the demon sword&amp;#039;s blade to entangle the angel&amp;#039;s entire body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This was an Absolute Blade Art unique to the Witch, a combination of spirit magic and sword technique.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angel&amp;#039;s movements stopped.&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:STnBD V18 BW10.jpg|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;mdash;However, runes of light immediately appeared, taking only an instant to erase the magical ice that rivaled Rinslet&amp;#039;s Ice Nein.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Instant disintegration of constitutional elements. All magical effects will be neutralized.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est explained in Kamito&amp;#039;s mind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Suits me just fine. Let&amp;#039;s see how many times you can neutralize!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enveloped in demon lightning, the Vorpal Sword smashed the angel&amp;#039;s enlarged legs. Greyworth&amp;#039;s demon sword deflected a great sword that was approaching Kamito, then spun around to amputate that arm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Flash after flash of swords tore through the night&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These movements of swords were almost like a blade dance offered to spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(So this is the Dusk Witch in her prime, huh&amp;amp;mdash;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito clicked his tongue mentally. He was lucky to have won the duel at Dracunia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Absolute Blade Dance, Flash Form&amp;amp;mdash;Death Butterfly Flash Dance!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dodging a storm of violent attacks, Greyworth launched a counterattack. Even though the angel tried to deploy a rune barrier, Est erased it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two arms were chopped off. An opening appeared in the enemy&amp;#039;s secure defense. In that very instant...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was no need to signal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As though they had agreed beforehand...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two of them unleashed the ultimate Absolute Blade Art at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Absolute Blade Arts, Destructive Form&amp;amp;mdash;Bursting Blossom Spiral Blade Dance, Hundred Combination Ashura!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Innumerable flashes of the sword criss-crossed and overlapped, turning into a rain of light, flooding the entire space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was an ultimate sword technique that originally existed in theory only.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the Demon King and the Witch performing the strongest Double Absolute Blade Arts together&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;mdash;The Dunamis angel was pulverized.&lt;br /&gt;
