&lt;br /&gt;
== Is it just me? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well from what I saw from the illustrations of the volumes, how do put it, it&#039;s like as the story goes further, the level of the erotic scenes just go much higher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just a bit more then it could become an R+18 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not like I&#039;m complaining tough it&#039;s just my opinion. [[User:Van Eisen|Hi! Hi! Are you high~?]] ([[User talk:Van Eisen|talk]]) 23:10, 18 January 2015 (CST)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Only a pure maiden can have the privilege to contract with a spirit. At Areishia Spirit Academy, trained maidens of noble families are gathered and given an elite&#039;s education to become elementalists. The protagonist, Kamito, accidentally peeped on a bathing girl, Claire, and ended up making a contract with the spirit she wanted. Indeed, as a male elementalist, Kamito is an irregularity whose existence was hitherto thought impossible. &amp;quot;You stole...my spirit...you have to take responsibility for it!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Huh?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;You have to become my contracted spirit!&amp;quot; Where will Kamito&#039;s destiny lead to?

==Story Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only a pure maiden can have the privilege to contract with a spirit. At Areishia Spirit Academy, trained maidens of noble families are gathered and given an elite&#039;s education to become elementalists. The protagonist, Kamito, accidentally peeped on a bathing girl, Claire, and ended up making a contract with the spirit she wanted. Indeed, as a male elementalist, Kamito is an irregularity whose existence was hitherto thought impossible. &amp;quot;You stole...my spirit...you have to take responsibility for it!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Huh?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;You have to become my contracted spirit!&amp;quot; Where will Kamito&#039;s destiny lead to? (From FairGame)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Part 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Waking up, he found himself on his soft bed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
... He sat up and looked back down at himself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He was not wearing his school uniform, but rather a set of loose pajamas. It seemed that someone had helped him change while he was unconscious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dream he witnessed had caused him to break out into a cold sweat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I —&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What on earth —&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Trying to recall the events that happened before he fainted, Kamito rubbed his dully aching head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that moment —&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, you&#039;re awake?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the corner of the room came a voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito turned, and saw a beautiful uniformed girl sitting in a chair by the wall.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She had two red ponytails on the sides of her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her translucent ruby-red pupils gazed anxiously in his direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Claire, you haven&#039;t been here all this while, have you?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Eh? No, not very long at all...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire frantically shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, dark circles at the corners of her eyes belied the fact that she had not had a good night&#039;s rest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I apologize for making you worry.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I-It&#039;s nothing, I wasn&#039;t worrying.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito returned Claire&#039;s concern with a wry smile, and took a look around the room.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This castle room had been arranged for the participants of the «Blade Dance». Looking at its spacious windows and quality household items, one could tell that this was not Kamito&#039;s usual residence, which was no different from a storage room, but a room from some unknown other place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With dawn quickly approaching, the sun shone weakly through a slit in the curtains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s good, get some sleep now. Your fever has not fully gone down.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ah? I have a fever?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmhm, it appears to have gotten better now, but you were burning up quite badly just a moment ago.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire bent over and placed her hand on Kamito&#039;s forehead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The touch of her ice-cold skin felt incredibly comfortable. .... Oh. There was indeed still a bit of a lingering fever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Anyways, Claire –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, what is it?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Uh, why did I faint?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;.......You don&#039;t remember?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire&#039;s eyes opened wide in surprise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Don&#039;t tell me you have amnesia...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No, nothing that serious. It&#039;s just that my head&#039;s still groggy and I can&#039;t seem to remember what happened right before I blacked out.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito shook his head silently.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The events from the ball?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, I remember that. You turned down the invitation from the crown prince of some country with the wave of a hand...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Uh, yeah.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Around that time, Ren Ashbell invited me to dance –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While massaging his aching temples, Kamito felt his memory gradually return in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something big must have happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;No mistake about that. There was something of extreme importance –&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ren Ashbell carved the «Brand of Darkness» on me, and then –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Impatience burned in his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sparkling in the corner of his mind was an image of the radiant silver sword.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And then, I –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, you rescued us from the hands of the «Institutional School» assassins!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking at the upset Kamito, Claire spoke up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The «Institutional School» assassins?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito lifted his head abruptly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;That&#039;s right. At that time, I battled Muir&#039;s military spirit–&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At Claire&#039;s words, his memories of last night returned in a flood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last night, during the opening ceremony of the Blade Dance, the assassin from the «Instructional School»  Muir Alenstarl, claimed to be Kamito&#039;s sworn younger sister, manipulated the military spirit , and attacked Claire and company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branded by Ren Ashbell&#039;s «Brand of Darkness» and covered in wounds, Kamito raced towards the battlefield reluctantly, towards Muir Alenstarl&#039;s military spirit  – but at that very moment, the curse of the mark took effect on Kamito&#039;s body, and he was overcome by a blinding pain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then –&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The instant he regained his memory, Kamito&#039;s whole body stiffened, as if he&#039;d been struck by lightning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The image that sprung to mind was that of a girl – with mysterious violet eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With beautiful silvery-white hair that reflected the moonlight.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With small hands that gently stroked his back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And with lips that were cold as ice yet hot as fire when they touched his.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she turned into innumerable particles of light, which dissipated into a void—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That was the last Kamito saw of her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Es... t?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The name escaped from his lips in a trembling, spontaneous exhale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the name of one who had always remained by his side, the name of an extremely important someone, the name of his contract spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His slight memory disturbances earlier must have been because he had not wanted to face this fact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire&#039;s low, worried words almost went unheard by Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You must be joking... Est, why did she–&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her meaningless words rang hollow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His newly recovered memory insisted on replaying the last scene he saw before losing consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time, she had whispered in his ear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Goodbye, Kamito –.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blade spirit Est – with a head of silvery-white hair, just like a snow fairy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His contract with her was originally a chance occurrence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While maintaining a contract with a contract spirit from the past, the end result was an incomplete contract.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Originally, he could not even wield a tenth of the power with the contract. It must have been considerably painful for a powerful spirit like her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, Est had said that was all right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To be able to contract with you, that alone is wonderful – she had said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;But I –&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Three years ago, there was a day he had lost a previous contract spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From that day onwards, he had vowed not to lose anyone important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yet I – again!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est had disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She had sacrificed her very existence in order to save Kamito from being eroded by the curse of the brand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Damn –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He threw up his hands in despair only for Claire to quickly catch hold of them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She gazed steadily into his eyes, with the intent of calming him down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est was not eliminated.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ah?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;After all, your hands still bear signs of a spirit contract, right?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito&#039;s eyes widened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Y...es... indeed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His right hand, the one in Claire&#039;s grasp, still bore a design of intersecting swords.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That was the proof of a spirit contract—the spirit seal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the contract spirit were to be eliminated, the spirit seal would then of course disappear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason why Kamito had believed for all these three years that Restia had not vanished—the reason why he had retained a glimmer of hope—was entirely because the spirit seal inscribed on his left hand still remained.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spirit seal connects the contractor to the contract spirit; it is a special «Gate».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now the pain was too weak to be felt – but as long as the spirit seal on his right hand did not disappear, he would have proof that Est had not been completely eliminated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est, she&#039;s still alive.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. And even if we cannot call her out now, there must be a way to do so.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If that&#039;s the case, I can&#039;t remain like this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Ah ah ah ah ah!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Biting back the pain coursing through his entire body, Kamito got up from the bed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wait, wait a moment, what are you doing!? You still can&#039;t –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est is waiting – I don&#039;t have the time to continue sleeping!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just as Claire&#039;s hands moved to stop him–&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gurgle gurgle ~&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lovely sound arose in the room.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Claire?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All the strength had drained from his body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...... ~!Th-Th-This is a misunderstanding, t-there wasn&#039;t a strange sound just now!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You... don&#039;t tell me, you haven&#039;t had anything to eat since yesterday?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;A-After all, you&#039;ve been having a bad fever, well...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire blushed and stammered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can&#039;t afford to skip meals since tomorrow the battle begins.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... I-I know. Speaking of which, you haven&#039;t eaten either.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, I&#039;m more or less accustomed to that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In his youth, Kamito had spent most of his time at intense trainings in the «Instructional School».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The education he received there included even starvation training. Although he had no intention of attempting such a thing, he could now easily go without food for several days.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Then again...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something suddenly occurred to Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Everyone now knows that I was from the «Instructional School»...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Precisely because they were important companions, he had not wanted them to know of his past.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once they learnt of that he thought, they would not want anything to do with him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was only natural that one would think so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the contrary, they had treated Kamito –&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You... what you are or aren&#039;t accustomed to, that&#039;s entirely beside the point. If you don&#039;t eat well, you&#039;ll never regain your strength. Look, I even brought fruit here specially f-for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At this, Claire indicated the basket on the bedside table.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was filled to the brim with delicious-looking ripe peaches.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;– Claire, thank you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Don&#039;t stand on courtesy, it&#039;s nothing. After all, they were brought back from the ball.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No such thing!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito looked directly at Claire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Even after learning I was an orphan from the «Instructional School», you still stayed my friend, saying it didn&#039;t matter. ... About that, I&#039;m still very glad.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;W-What, ah, well, that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire blushed and looked away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;B-But of course, isn&#039;t that just how it is? Regardless of your past, you&#039;re my spirit slave in the present and that will not change!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a wry smile and a nod of his head, Kamito reached into the basket for a peach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Here, hand me a small knife, I&#039;ll cut it open.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Leave it to me. You&#039;re the hurt one, get some rest.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The peach is fragile, so it can be difficult to peel. I thought you weren&#039;t good at peeling fruits?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;W-well, if you think that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire hid her face. Truth be told, it seemed that all the women at the institution, both young and adult, were all not that good at homemaking. It wasn&#039;t just Claire who was particularly bad at preparing fruits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito shrugged, picked up a knife from the table, and nimbly started peeling the peach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Watching his deft handiwork, Claire asked emotionally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Did you learn this from that «Instructional School» too?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No, cooking and other skills I picked up during my travels. My travel companion was very picky when it came to flavors and tastes!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Companion, meaning that dark spirit girl?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While cutting the peach, Kamito&#039;s expression turned sour.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well – so it&#039;s like that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire looked doubtful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Look, it is peeled.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As if to change the subject, Kamito speared the peeled peach on a fork and presented it to Claire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she took a bite, some peach juice sprayed back at him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yum yum~ so sweet, it&#039;s really delicious...!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her two red ponytails danced in joy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire put her hands to her cheeks, an expression of sheer bliss on her face. She looked so lovely one could accidentally lose oneself in admiration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, now, have another...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito raised the fork holding the peach. Like a cat being teased, Claire&#039;s gaze followed it in a trance-like state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Look, here it is!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He shifted his hand away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ah!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And shifted it again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;R-Really now!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire&#039;s mouth opened and shut as she chased the peach doggedly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Left, right. ... And again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finding it very interesting, Kamito intended to continue for a little longer –&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... ~Oi, w-why are you so cruel!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire snarled, tears welling in her eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Sorry, just felt like you were as adorable as a cat, so.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...?! W-what do you mean cute... s-stupid idiot, that&#039;s what you are!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Into the mouth of the red-faced, frantically gesticulating Claire –&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Aah.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
– went the peach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And she bit down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Whew, ah, it&#039;s so delicious ...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Just like a cat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire shot Kamito a look.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hey, isn&#039;t this situation backwards?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hrm, backwards?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The injured person is you, but I&#039;m the one eating.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, it&#039;s a small matter, don&#039;t worry about it.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito shrugged his shoulders, and conveniently put the peach into his own mouth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slightly tangy taste of the peach juice spread immediately in his mouth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm, it really is delicious. It&#039;s thoroughly ripe!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I-isn&#039;t that the same fork...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... What&#039;s the matter?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;N-No, it&#039;s nothing –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire hastily took her eyes off him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Anyway –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito put the fork aside and asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes, what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What&#039;s the performance for the «Blade Dance»? The divination of the spirit princesses have already been revealed, right?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Kamito was unconscious, the five spirit princesses had held a ceremony at the great temple of the «Divine Ritual Institute». where the Five Elemental Lords bestowed their divine revelation. The performance was to be decided by this divine revelation – as for the competition format, it would be announced at a later date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At this, Claire&#039;s expression grew serious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmhm, the blade dance performance to be presented will be – the «Tempest».&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;«Tempest», huh...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That had been the a competition format used for the Blade Dance not only in recent years, but also tens, and even hundreds of years ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spirit contractors who will be presenting the blade dance performance will come together at the gathering place in the vast holy lands, and the teams will do battle with each other over a number of days. Each individual&#039;s combat skills will be put to the test, but beyond that, of even greater significance will be their tactical and strategic ability, as well as teamwork and cooperation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... It will be a tough battle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Indeed. On the other hand, they clearly could have chosen a knockout-style tournament. If so, I suppose this was the best possible outcome.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire nodded with a serious look on her face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The blade dance performance&#039;s format would be the «Tempest». This piece of information was one he had previously thought about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the only constraint being &amp;quot;five spirit contractors to a team&amp;quot;, a little investigating on the history of the Blade Dance would have made it clear that the number of possible performance formats numbered only about ten or so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a matter of fact, the Areishia Spirit Academy had even conducted an extensive training exercise under the assumption that this performance would be selected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, one could still hold out hope, for as long as possible, that this performance would not be chosen – this way of thinking was still true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More so than individual skill, this competition format emphasized a team&#039;s combined strength. One would be hard-pressed to say this system had any benefits for Claire, who was still worried and unconfident in regards to teamwork.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Furthermore, «TEAM•SCARLET» had only formed recently. The five members had begun working together a mere few weeks ago. While each of them was a strong spirit contractor in his or her own right, their combined team strength still could not compare to that of the other teams.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Furthermore...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito&#039;s gaze turned to the spirit seal inscribed on his right hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All along, Kamito&#039;s overwhelming strength had always been unrivaled amongst his companions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, Kamito was now in a state lacking his contract spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite previously being known as the strongest Blade Dancer, without his contract spirit, Kamito could not reach his full strength as a spirit contractor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following that, he rested his hand lightly on the chest wound that was still aching dully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;—The curse of this brand had yet to fade completely.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The «Brand of Darkness» Ren Ashbell had engraved was even now still eating away at his body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although Est had suppressed the worst of the damage by sacrificing herself, she had not entirely destroyed it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Murmuring her name, even injecting into it divine power, the spirit seal yielded no response.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instead, an intense scorching pain invaded his entire body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Ah, damn it...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;d better not act rashly. What you can do now is get a good rest in order to regain your strength and divine power.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Ah, ah, I know.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clenching his lips tightly, Kamito nodded and laid flat on the bed again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Part 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;... Kamito seemed to be pretty depressed.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside Kamito&#039;s room, Claire let out a small sigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This was not unreasonable. After all, it was a spirit contractor who had lost their own contract spirit before his own eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That bitterness, Claire understood all too well, as she too had lost Scarlet in the past. At that time, Claire had given up on herself, and had even allowed herself to be tempted by the dark spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of course, Est&#039;s eradication had left Claire somewhat shaken too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For Est had not been just another contract spirit. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was also an important companion of Claire&#039;s in the institution; for more than two months, they had fought side by side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;.......We need to quickly find a way to bring Est back.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The practical problem was that, without Est, «TEAM•SCARLET» had no chance of winning the battle royale. Kamito had incomparable strength, but a spirit contractor without a contract spirit at his side would not be able to do his best at a competition such as the «Blade Dance», where there were many tough opponents.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There must be a way to bring Est back – true, she had just said that, but what exactly one would need to do, she did not know. Assuming it was possible was fine and all, but they might not have enough time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Blade Dance battle would begin tomorrow; they could only afford to spare one day. If Kamito could not bring Est back in that time, they would have to rely on only the four remaining people to win the battle royale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although they did not intend on losing to the other teams, the fact of the matter was that their chances of victory against a strong opponent—such as, say, the Dracunia Dragons led by Leonora Lancaster—were slim indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, in order to win the grand event, they would still have to take down Ren Ashbell, the most powerful of the Blade Dancers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then again, it was also possible for Kamito to look for another spirit to contract with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;But, all things considered, that was not likely...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pacing around the portico, Claire shook her head. Leaving aside for the moment the issue of finding a suitable new contract spirit, Kamito would most certainly reject the idea of any other spirit but Est.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Speaking of whom –&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the blue, the image of that dark spirit girl inadvertently surfaced in Claire&#039;s mind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jet-black hair, billowing in the wind. A lovely girl with eyes the color of dusk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;In the end, I still did not asked Kamito about her...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A wave of pain rushed through her chest as she thought of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was yesterday evening, in the courtyard of the castle: Kamito and the dark spirit girl, their lips locked in a kiss.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It wasn&#039;t that she lacked the opportunity to ask; it was just not a suitable time for such a matter. Shocked and upset over having lost Est, Kamito was not in a state for her to pursue the matter to completion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;But that girl; what on earth was her relationship with Kamito...?&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The previous contract spirit was a girl of darkness who, even now, still held Kamito&#039;s heart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strange pain in her chest burned more and more intensely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;W-Well, whatever, that rascal can get all kissy-kissy with whoever he wants to! It&#039;s got nothing to with me right?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire reasoned this out herself and then stopped outside the room.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door —&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...Huh !?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were three people in the room who rose from the couch in unison.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is Kamito awake!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire nodded her head in response to Ellis&#039;s query.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, yeah, but it seems the fever has not receded yet. He should continue to rest.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;.....Hmm, I see. All in all, it&#039;s good that he&#039;s doing alright.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;T-To actually have a girl worry so much over him. This guy still causes headaches like before!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet crossed and uncrossed her fingers restlessly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... It was really all thanks to Est. My skills were simply ineffective against the curse of that brand.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In contrast with the other two, who seemed to have breathed sighs of relief, Fianna wore a somber expression.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna was originally the second-best princess maiden overall in the «Divine Ritual Institute». Her power and skill at curse-breaking was comparable to that of the current princess maidens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the «Brand of Darkness» inscribed by Ren Ashbell on Kamito&#039;s body contained a curse so strong that it left even Fianna helpless.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If at that time Est had not sacrificed herself, then —&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito&#039;s physicial body would have been utterly corroded by the curse. At worst, he might even have died.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I have searched through a wide range of material but still couldn&#039;t find any information on this curse.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pile of heavy books around Fianna was as high as a mountain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She had brought these with her from the institution. They contained incantations and curses as well as documents related to spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;But even now, I still cannot believe that...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ellis spoke while clenching her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That Ren Ashbell would go so far as to actually do such a thing —&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Yeah, I know.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire nodded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strongest Blade Dancer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her goal was to become a princess maiden spirit contractor, the most lauded person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the Blade Dance three years ago, her blade dance performance had mesmerized countless girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whether it was Claire, Ellis, or anyone, they all held a powerful and honorable person like her in high respect. They had endured the Academy&#039;s numerous, strict training regimens in order to be a spirit contractor like her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Which was why when Muir Alenstarl told them that it was she who had carved the «Brand of Darkness» onto Kamito&#039;s body, they completely could not bring themselves to believe it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, on further reflection—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Not a single one of them knew anything about who she was...&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, what wish she made to the Elemental Lord as the victor of the Blade Dance three years prior.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why, after reaching the highest possible level of renown, did she suddenly disappear without a trace from the eyes of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And why, with things in their current state, would want to make a return?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speculation of all sorts existed, but it still remained a mystery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, why would the strongest active spirit contractor want to place a curse on Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason for that was unclear as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;For preemptive reasons, so as to reduce Kamito to a certain amount of strength before the battle royale?&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if that were so, there was no need to use such a circuitous strategy as a curse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One would only need to fight with overwhelming brute strength to eliminate others, like what Muir Alenstarl did.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Without conclusive evidence, that impostor spirit contractor may as well be the real Ren Ashbell.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... But in that case, why not use her real identity?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Maybe there&#039;s some reason why she couldn&#039;t use her true identity,&amp;quot; muttered Fiana.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You think there is a hidden reason?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ah... I-I didn&#039;t say anything!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Addressing the frowning Claire, Fianna hurriedly shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;If there was someone masquerading as Ren Ashbell and using her name, I would never forgive her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Placing her hands on the sword at her waist, Ellis spoke up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Come on, let&#039;s take the initiative to go ask her—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Impossible. We don&#039;t even know where she is in the first place.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire shook her head at Ellis&#039;s impulsive and dangerous proposal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The team representing Ren Ashbell, Team Inferno of Alphas Empire, had apparently stayed in a tower outside the region where they waited for an opportunity to strike. No one knew where they were.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, Muir Alenstarl, who had vanished after yesterday&#039;s skirmish, had not given up on his plans to kill Claire and company. A slow, stealthy approach would be more practical than a direct dangerous one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Her intentions are indeed a major concern, but—the foremost problem here has to be Est.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire turned towards Fianna and asked:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;ll get straight to the point. Est – can she still return?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna stroked her chin, as though deep in thought.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;If Kamito&#039;s hand still shows signs of the spirit seal, it is evidence that Est has not been completely vanquished. Ordinarily, once she fully regains her power, she can return. It&#039;s just that –&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Just that?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;This is just my hypothesis – Est may have been trapped in a prison of the curse. Regarding this, I cannot be sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What do you mean?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est used her power to suppress the curse, but she did not completely break it. Now she might be held, shackled by the curse, unable to move.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In order to rescue Est, we&#039;ll have to deal with the curse first, won&#039;t we?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ellis nodded a serious expression.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In regards to the «Brand of Darkness», I can get some help from the forces at the «Divine Ritual Institute». ... Next, there is the problem of Kamito himself. Although I don&#039;t think this will crush his spirits...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;But, he seemed really upset......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Even in front of Claire, he had put on a brave front so as not to let anyone see him weak. At the end of the day however, he could not hide how much the loss of Est had affected him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the looks of it, it should take him quite some time to get his act together.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In that case......is there anything we can do for him?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Truthfully speaking, it&#039;s not that we don&#039;t have an option...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Eh, really?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;What&#039;s is it?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;D-Don&#039;t leave us guessing! Tell us directly, please!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing this, Claire and the others who were not giving up, gathered in front of Fianna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna sighed and said:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... Help our own opponents. While it is infuriating, we really have no choice.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She uttered this sentence of cryptic meaning –&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then informed them on what they - can - do - for - Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The trio&#039;s faces instantly turned bright red.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;W-Wait a minute! That sort of thing – how could we possibly to do that!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;R-Really now! Such a shameful thing... as a knight, I cannot accept it!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Keep in mind that I am the eldest daughter of the noble Laurenfrost family!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wave of protest from the girls came at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hmm – so you mean to say that you don&#039;t want Kamito to recover?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna sharply spoke and pointed at them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;T-That is...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Of course that isn&#039;t true–&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;... I-I didn&#039;t mean it like that, except–&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The three blushed and stammered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mischievous smile formed on Fianna&#039;s face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All right then, it&#039;s settled. There are all sorts of ceremonial props in the luggage I brought. Help yourselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she spoke, she reached into the travel bag and took out a myriad of colorful costumes and props.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;==Chapter 9 - Brand of Darkness==&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 1===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(That was the other Ren Ashbell—)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The girl clad in pure black gave off an overwhelming pressure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Approaching carelessly would result in becoming ashes — this illusion was felt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once the commotion settled, a painful silence descended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Everyone gulped as they watched her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like with Claire, nobody approached her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A chill ran down Kamito&#039;s spine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(......I, can I win against her?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before he realized it, the flowing music had stopped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strongest blade dancer stopped in the middle of the hall—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And turned and walked towards him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito-kun.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Kamito.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna had unconsciously grabbed Kamito&#039;s sleeve. Even Ellis who should have Ren Ashbell as her goal was cowering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito moved before them in a protective manner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell stopped just before Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—So you are Kazehaya Kamito, huh.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A voice akin to solid steel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito nodded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Nice to meet you — I wonder if that&#039;s appropriate? Ren Ashbell.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Licking his lips cynically, he glared at the red mask.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, he could not read any sort of emotion from the red eyes within.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And she held out her right hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Kamito was puzzled—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kazehaya Kamito, would you dance with me for one song?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suggested something unexpected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(......No, this isn&#039;t a suggestion. It&#039;s an order.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her tone was peaceful, but a refusal — it held a power which wouldn&#039;t allow that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito turned towards Ellis and Fianna and—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sorry, won&#039;t you let me go for a little while?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;B-But, Kamito—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Okay. Ellis, let&#039;s go.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With that, Fianna grabbed Ellis&#039; hand. She knew Kamito&#039;s identity as the real Ren Ashbell. The wise princess had understood the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Do you have experience in dancing?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;If it&#039;s classical, yeah.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito replied sharply and took Ren Ashbell&#039;s hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The paused musical performance started up again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 2===&lt;br /&gt;
In the dark forest surrounding the castle, Claire ran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Various trees&#039; branches clung to the crimson dress, tearing it apart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mud stuck to her red high heels. Countless wounds appeared on her smooth skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without minding any of that, she ran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Why......)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how long passed, that scene would not leave her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When that dark spirit girl kissed Kamito, that moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(......I-It&#039;s not like I think anything of him!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As if to shake off that irritating feeling, Claire shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was just that ignoring his master and doing that kind of thing with another girl was unforgivable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(......That&#039;s right, that&#039;s all it is.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why then, did her heart hurt this much?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just before, holding that man&#039;s hand, she had hated it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it was Kamito, he wouldn&#039;t do anything that violent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He teased Claire a lot, always treating her like a kid, occasionally saying mean things, but still.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
—But still, he would never do something like that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before she realized it, she had arrived at the lake from the afternoon&#039;s purification.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Inside the silent forest. Numerous spirits floated upon the lake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire hugged her knees and sat at the lake&#039;s edge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dress she had prepared was filthy and either way she couldn&#039;t return to the dance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her hair was dishevelled and her dress was ruined beyond repair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What&#039;s with him, that idiot......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a terribly miserable mood, Claire sighed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a light plop, tears started falling to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......That&#039;s wrong. The stupid one is me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She couldn&#039;t be honest once again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If she had, she could be dancing with Kamito right now—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time. From with the forest, footsteps could be heard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Kamito?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She hurriedly wiped away her tears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But the one that appeared from within the forest wasn&#039;t Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Jeez, just how far are you going to run!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Rinslet......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire opened her eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While breathing wildly, Rinslet sunk down beside Claire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Whew, that&#039;s a fairly unsightly appearance.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You, too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Th-That&#039;s because you ran so far!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet&#039;s dress was torn to shreds and leaves and branches clung to her hair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Even though I had just worn a new dress......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She drooped her shoulders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire averted her eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......What did you come for?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I came to laugh at your pitiful chest. Your dress is too showy.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Wh-What did you say!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her red twintails stood on end like fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet moved her hair up and—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;ve finally returned to normal.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiled brilliantly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Did you fight with Kamito-san again?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Gu......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire chewed on her lip.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......It, it&#039;s his fault. He won&#039;t tell me anything.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What do you mean?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I mean, that is......aren&#039;t you interested in Kamito&#039;s past?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito-san&#039;s past?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet tilted her head slight to the side—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, it would be a lie to say I wasn&#039;t.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I wonder if he doesn&#039;t trust me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire&#039;s twintails drooped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Why do you say that?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Because he won&#039;t tell me anything......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;He can&#039;t bring himself to tell you because you&#039;re important to him — that is also a possibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire pouted and pondered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......I, I wonder if that&#039;s true.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Truly, there was also that way of interpreting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:STnBD V04 211.jpg|200px|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
But—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You are such a child, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sh-Shut up......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire groaned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Even I understand that much......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But she was uneasy, so it couldn&#039;t be helped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it was about someone she didn&#039;t care about, she wouldn&#039;t have these feelings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because it was Kamito — not talking about his past,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realizing it just now, her heart beat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Wh-What kind of stupid things are you thinking, me!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her cheeks flushed red.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Claire, what&#039;s wrong?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It, it&#039;s nothing!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire shook her head from side to side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—Hmm, so you two are here.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From within the forest, a young girl&#039;s voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That voice......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire and Rinslet immediately became guarded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sound of trees falling one by one, and then—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Just perfect, I&#039;ll play with you to the end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In front of the two, a giant black monster appeared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Riding upon it&#039;s back was a girl with ash grey hair — Muir Alenstarl was laughing lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;With this annihilation spirit — Tiamat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 3===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The elegantly played waltz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two dancing in the center of the hall were drawing attention from around them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Ren Ashbell leading, the dance was intense like a burning flame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with when a princess maiden was performing a offering a ritual, a true ceremonial dance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With those fluid movements, Kamito was just barely keeping pace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Pretty good movements. As expected of a blade dance master.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is that sarcasm? {{Furigana|Strongest Blade Dancer|Ren Ashbell|margin=12}}.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To the whisper from the scarlet mask, Kamito replied as such.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell quickly shifted her feet. Kamito followed her lead and pulled her towards himself. They turned like a flickering flame. Both left their bodies to the music.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Their dancing was already one without splendor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was already a fierce blade dance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I have various questions I&#039;d like to ask you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Impatient, aren&#039;t you? Despite that I&#039;d like to enjoy this dance with you a little longer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sorry. I&#039;ll have you let me lead from here.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito pulled Ren Ashbell&#039;s hand and led her to a terrace devoid of others.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The cool night air cooled their burning skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of its large size, the terrace felt like a floating island with a clear view of the entire forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;This strategy is bothersome. I&#039;ll get straight to the point.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito stopped dancing and separated from her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He glared at the scarlet mask — and asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What did you do to Restia?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What did you do, meaning?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Don&#039;t mess around. I know that you command Restia.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--11--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I am not commanding her. She is my comrade.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re saying Restia is helping you of her own will?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s right, I am using her and she is using me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito bit his lips closed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(I can&#039;t accept that, but—)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was certainly credibility in it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Restia moving without commands was something he could imagine. Warning Kamito about Muir was probably done on her own will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What is your purpose in gathering the military spirits and orphans from the &amp;lt;Instructional School&amp;gt;?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;For war.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And she replied immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......War?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito was speechless.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But thinking about it, it wasn&#039;t an unexpected reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Military spirits and &amp;lt;Instructional School&amp;gt; orphans — either one was useless for anything other than war.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s right. Power is necessary for fighting with &amp;lt;them&amp;gt;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--12--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Them?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;This world&#039;s kings.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Fighting with the world&#039;s kings......she says?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito could not understand that objective. Was it for the purpose of restarting the Ranbal War which had involved every country—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What is the reason for that? To destroy the world?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No. It is a war to save this world.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What are you say—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;But to start the war, a starting point is needed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell grabbed Kamito by the scruff of the neck and pulled him closer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;ll have you allow me to test it, {{Furigana|Successor of the Maou|Ren Ashbell|margin=12}}. Whether you have the qualifications to kill them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, her right hand pierced Kamito&#039;s chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 4===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--13--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
That was — with countless scales like blades, a many-headed evil dragon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The black giant far eclipsed Leonora Lancaster&#039;s {{Furigana|dragon spirit|Nidhogg|margin=12}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its spread wings hid the moon and its claws gouged the earth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Five heads spread from the center of its torso and each acted on its own.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......{{Furigana|Annihilation spirit|Tiamat|margin=12}}?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the face of the rising oppressive force, Claire took a breath.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No mistaking it. What was before them was a first-class military spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An existence not unlike Velsaria&#039;s {{Furigana|fortress spirit|Dreadnought|margin=12}} they had fought two weeks prior.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The girl riding on its back laughed lightly and smiled and—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—Kill them, &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With an innocent voice, that order was given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the heads breathed fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Goooooooo!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The flames spread across the ground and in an instant the surrounding forest had burned down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire and Rinslet had reacted instantaneously, jumping straight into the lake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--14--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The night sky was dyed red with the color of the flames.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir Alenstarl was clapping her hands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ohh, not bad. You&#039;re not blade dancers for nothing.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire broke the surface of the water and glared at Muir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The scarlet dress was soaked and clung to her skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Claire, help......cough, cough......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You, what are you doing!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I-I can&#039;t swim!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hah?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet flapped and choked. Claire quickly helped her out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;How are you drowning in a place where you can stand?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sh-Shut up!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet averted her face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Why are you attacking us?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Because you onee-sans have made nii-sama weak.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir replied in a cold voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--15--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One of &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt;&#039;s heads with a crooked neck rose up and let loose blades of wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Scarlet!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire called out and summoned a hellcat clad in crimson flames.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, it was impossible to shoot down every blade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Ow!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The scarlet dress was shredded and blood flew from her shoulder like mist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many wounds opened across her pure white skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fufu, your prepared dress has become worthless.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like a cat playing with its prey, Muir licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hmph, it was just slowing me down.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire gave a fearless smile and tore the hem of her dress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the tear, one could see a leather whip strapped to her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Like I thought, rather than a dance, a blade dance is much more suited to me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From within the dancing flames, Claire&#039;s whip let out a sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What a coincidence. Me, too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet emerged from the water, ripped the hem of her dress and summoned her {{Furigana|demon ice spirit|Fenrir|margin=12}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--16--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The ice wolf changed forms to the &amp;lt;Ice Longbow&amp;gt; and moved to Rinslet&#039;s hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Noisily, a wall of fire erupted into the night sky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With their respective Elemental Waffes in hand, the two faced down with the giant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Stupid onee-chans. You think you can defeat Muir?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt; let out a roar that seemed to slice the atmosphere.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No, it wasn&#039;t a roar. This was—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(No way, a spirit magic chant!?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small portion of high-intelligence spirits could perform spirit magic on their own. The dragon race of spirits in particular was known for its proficiency at spirit magic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ground shook greatly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Trees were uprooted and the ground split, sending many stones flying—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Earth spirit magic &amp;lt;{{Furigana|Tribulations&#039; Mountain of Swords|Judgement Sword|margin=12}}&amp;gt;!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What insane destructive power!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can&#039;t run, onee-chan.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red dragon head spit out a fireball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--17--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The stones released by the fireball&#039;s explosion on the ground turned the trees into smithereens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kyaaa!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were thrown to the ground by the aftershock.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the same magic, but the destructive force was incomparable to Claire&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ku......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Aha, what happened to all that attitude from before, onee-chan?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Freezing fang, pierce — {{Furigana|Demon Ice Arrow|Freezing Arrow|margin=12}}!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, Rinslet released the ice arrow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Innumerable flying fangs of ice. It wouldn&#039;t be a killing blow, but with the added effect of {{Furigana|Absolute Zero|Ice Nein|margin=12}}, it should at least dull its movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But before they struck — &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt; roared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A wall of earth rose and blocked the arrows of ice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wh-What! To be able to use fire and earth spirit magic at the same time—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......That reminds me that a long time ago, I heard this from ane-sama.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire sighed as she wiped the sweat from her brow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;During the Ranbal War, amongst the knights there was a spirit that could control all of the main elements at once.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--18--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And that is {{Furigana|the annihilation spirit|Tiamat|margin=12}}?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Possibly. But I heard that nobody could use it, so it was abandoned.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......If that&#039;s true, this is bad.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spirit that could control all of the five main elements—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it were just Rinslet&#039;s demon ice spirit and Claire&#039;s flame spirit, there were weakpoints.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;But to use a spirit like that with just one person—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire readied her {{Furigana|flame whip|Flame Tongue|margin=12}} and glared at Muir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Compared to the spirits that contracted with a person, military spirits did not require a contract to be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its strong-point was that it was general use — the ability of the spirit had no connection to the ability of the contractor, so as long as the disposition was correct, they could use the spirit&#039;s power. This was the reason Muir Alenstarl could use several spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But on the other hand, one could not pull out any more power than was present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, the spirit&#039;s Elemental Waffe could not be used, and much of its true abilities were sealed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--19--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
But that girl was pulling out all of the military spirit&#039;s power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir Alenstarl was an expert that specialized at using spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(But just where did she learn those skills—)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It&#039;s about time to end playing around. Onee-chan.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And Muir&#039;s ash grey hair blew in the wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......You were playing until now?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s right, onee-chan.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rolling up her black sleeve revealed a shining ominous design carved into her right hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is that a Cursed Armament Seal!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That which pulls out a spirit&#039;s powers to the limit — &amp;lt;Jester&#039;s Vice&amp;gt;. This is Muir&#039;s power.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In an instant, &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt; fiercely roared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its five heads raged and its body grew larger in an unsightly manner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was as if an invisible vise was closing down on it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Just what is that!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the heads, a dull white, opened its jaw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In its throat, a mass of light was building up—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Kami—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--20--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
That name that almost escaped her mouth — Claire swallowed it back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(At this kind of time, just asking to be saved is......)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She made her resolve to die at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then before her eyes appeared a knight with helmet and shield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
White metal shining, the knight readied its shield and blocked the light!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Claire, are you okay!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fianna!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fianna came out of the forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The one that protected Claire was {{Furigana|the defense spirit|Georgios|margin=12}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And one other person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Growl, {{Furigana|Wind Winged Hawk|Ray Hawk|margin=12}}! I order you — O wind, blow wildly!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrapped in a frenzied wind, Ellis threw her Elemental Waffe spear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The multitude of wind blades cut into the evil dragon&#039;s torso.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt; raged as its blood sprayed into the air.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fianna, Ellis — you&#039;re a life saver.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It&#039;s still too early for thanks.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ellis sighed with a sharp gaze.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--21--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fufu, you&#039;ve only bought a short time.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Letting the Cursed Armament Seal shine ominously—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir Alenstarl licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Onee-chans, I&#039;ll kill you all together.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 5===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kaha......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito pressed down on his chest and crouched down on the terrace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His heart burned like it was on fire. All of his blood was boiling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, a tremendous pain assaulted the interior of his body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What did you do to me......?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I merely released a little. The qualities of the Maou that sleep within you, that is.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Qualities of the Maou?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito glared up at the crimson mask while crouching on the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breathing was painful. His heart was beating like mad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ah......guu......gaa, ahhhhhh!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--22--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A scream built up in his throat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;As expected, your body is rejecting it.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell was calmly watching the writhing Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, fine. If you can&#039;t stand that much, then you were only worth so little—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Y-You......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Stand. Kazehaya Kamito.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She kicked the groaning Kamito in the stomach without a shred of mercy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ga......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can lie there if you want, but things you hold precious will be hurt.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What, was that......?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While breathing through his throat which felt like it was on fire, Kamito somehow managed to raise his upper body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Look there—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ren Ashbell pointed out towards the forest visible from the terrace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The direction of the lake from that afternoon. Black flames and fierce flames were rising.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Your companions and Muir Alenstarl are currently engaged in combat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What, did you say......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same moment he yelled that, the worst pain thus far assaulted Kamito. He collapsed onto the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--23--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Your companions cannot defeat Muir Alenstarl. You, who knows her, know that fact best.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He couldn&#039;t deny it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir Alenstarl was the &amp;lt;Monster&amp;gt; from the &amp;lt;Instructional School&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between the ojou-samas of the academy and Muir who had been trained specifically as a weapon, there was an enormous gap.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I won&#039;t let that......I will never, lose another......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito pressed down on his beating chest and staggered back onto his feet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The interior of the crimson mask — burning red eyes pierced through Kamito&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then she grabbed his arm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s the spirit. Don&#039;t let me down, {{Furigana|strongest blade dancer|Ren Ashbell|margin=12}}!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito was flung off the terrace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 6===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--24--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—Blow the flute of the end, dragon vanguard of the king!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir Alenstarl&#039;s innocent voice resounded across the night sky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fire, earth, water, wind, holy — under the influence of Muir&#039;s ability &amp;lt;Jester&#039;s Vise&amp;gt;, each head released breath.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—Thou, become the shield of my person, knight of the ancient pledge!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The atmosphere shook and trees were felled in circular patterns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The knight&#039;s shield was destroyed and its armor was falling apart—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The time it could withstand was only a few more seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The knight with the should-be overwhelming defense was blown into bits and disappeared into nothingness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Georgios!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Aha, that wasn&#039;t even a toy, onee-chan.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir sneered at the devastated and drained Fianna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ellis, Rinslet — we rush at the same time!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Got it!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Understood!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yelling, Claire drew {{Furigana|the flame whip|Flame Tongue|margin=12}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--25--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The crimson slash sealed its movements for a moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Freezing fang, pierce — {{Furigana|Demon Ice Arrow|Freezing Arrow|margin=12}}!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—O wind, blow wildly!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rinslet released the {{Furigana|Demon Ice Arrow|Freezing Arrow|margin=12}} towards the fire head and Ellis&#039; wind blades aimed for the earth head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That is, they aimed for the heads which were weak against their element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It won&#039;t work.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The earth and wind dragons chanted different spirit spells.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time the ice arrows were blocked by the wall of earth, the blades of wind were struck down by opposing blades of wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while the three were defense, the dull white head fired its {{Furigana|Judgment Flash|Holy Ray|margin=12}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The grounded exploded and a pillar of earth and sand flew up from it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire and the others were blasted from the air and hit the ground harshly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The crater which radiated outwards. The fire fragments which were mixed in painted the air red.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......To be able to control a military spirit like her hands and feet......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire groaned while gripping the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was a despairing difference in battle strength. The top class&#039; spirits at the academy were like babies in comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(But......)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--26--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, the scales cracked and &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt;&#039;s frame grew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir&#039;s &amp;lt;Jester&#039;s Vise&amp;gt; carried a heavy burden.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is that okay? At this rate, that military spirit will be destroyed!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The heavily wounded Rinslet yelled such.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir shrugged her shoulders—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It&#039;s fine. A spirit is just a throwaway toy.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What did you say......!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Claire opened her eyes in shock. She raised her bloody head without thinking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And you still call yourself a spirit contractor?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Muir is a weapon. The same as this &amp;lt;Tiamat&amp;gt; and nii-sama, a massacre weapon.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At those words — Claire&#039;s expression froze.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You......what did you just say?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The same as nii-sama, what do you mean?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Aha, did you perhaps not know?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Muir&#039;s lips curled in a cruel manner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--27--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Nii-sama is the same as Muir — an assassin raised by the &amp;lt;Instructional School&amp;gt;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Part 7===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Damn......it......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito who had been tossed off the terrace groaned in anguish.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One or two bones might be broken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This was the Kamito who had received the harshest taijutsu training at the &amp;lt;Instructional School&amp;gt;. Even if he fell from the third floor of a building, it wouldn&#039;t result in an injury. But right now, Kamito&#039;s body was burning up and in extreme pain such that he couldn&#039;t even lift a finger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(......What exactly was done to me?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within his hazy mind, Ren Ashbell&#039;s words came to him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Released the qualities of the Maou — that&#039;s what she said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(......What does that mean?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No, rather than that, right now—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito dug his shaking fingertips into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The flames burning the forest were increasing in intensity more and more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--28--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While this was happening, Claire and the others—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was frustrating not being able to move. It couldn&#039;t be helped that it felt like the air was burning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even now, elegant music could be heard coming from the interior of the castle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite the battle going on at the purification grounds, nobody inside the castle seemed to have noticed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No, even Kamito who had been on the terrace had failed to hear the battle. There might have been a barrier around the surroundings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(But to form a barrier of this magnitude......)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only ones capable of such a feat were &amp;lt;Spirit Princess&amp;gt; rank princess maidens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Gu, ah......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A racing heartbeat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time a horrible pain spread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—Kamito!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......!?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sound of footsteps and the one who appeared was the white dress-clad Est.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;My apologies. Because of somebody&#039;s barrier around this area, I didn&#039;t notice it sooner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est, gu......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito......don&#039;t tell me, that power—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--29--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Est opened her mysterious violet eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Leaning down beside the fallen Kamito, she pulled him back up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her white-silver hair lightly touched his cheek. The sweet milk-like scent tickled his nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Est?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, please stay still like that.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With that, Est touched the feverish chest of Kamito.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her beautiful hair gleamed in the night&#039;s darkness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strangely, the pain seemed to leave with the soft feeling of her hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this Terminus Est&#039;s power?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. I believe this will keep it in check for now but—&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which destroyed Velsaria&#039;s Cursed Armament Seal, a holy blade&#039;s power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not like the pain completely disappeared, but he could somehow move about at this level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, are you okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah, thanks to Est......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito raised his upper body and rose to his knees on the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, you still shouldn&#039;t move.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I have to go save Claire and the others.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;No, Kamito!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est let out a panicked voice. It was the first time for her who was always expressionless to express so much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The curse is only temporarily suppressed so if you use divine power right now, you won&#039;t be able to control my current power.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Yeah, I know.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, even then—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An instant. From the other side of the forest, a fearsome roar resounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As if to burn the night sky, the giant&#039;s flames grow higher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est, I&#039;m begging you. The only one who can fight with Muir is me.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Kamito, but......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lend me your power.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if he could not get her approval, he planned to head there anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;......Kamito, you&#039;re unfair.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est—&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sighed and held Kamito&#039;s hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;—I am Kamito&#039;s sword, as long as you wish.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Est, thanks.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamito nodded and chanted the words of summoning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
—The cool-headed steel queen, the sacred sword that destroys evil!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
—Now form a sword of steel and be the power in my hand!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Est&#039;s form was covered in light and disappeared into nothingness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And in the next moment, a blade of shining steel emitting light was gripped in his Kamito&#039;s hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Let&#039;s go, Est!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fixing his grip on Terminus Est, Kamito ran into the darkness of the night.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To bring closure to his past.&lt;br /&gt;
