==Story Synopsis==

Magic.

Is a product of neither legends nor fairy tales, but instead has become a technology of reality since a time unknown to people.

Supernatural power became a technology systematized through magic, while magic became a technical skill. A "Supernatural Power User" became a "Magic Technician".

Magic Technicians (in short, Magicians) are nurtured through Magic High Schools and Universities.

This is a story about:

A defective elder brother low achiever.

A perfect, flawless younger sister high achiever.

After both siblings entered a Magic High School,

The stage of daily turbulence was unveiled——.

==Story Synopsis==

Magic.

Is a product of neither legends nor fairy tales, but instead has become a technology of reality since a time unknown to people.

Supernatural power became a technology systematized through magic, while magic became a technical skill. A "Supernatural Power User" became a "Magic Technician".

Magic Technicians (in short, Magicians) are nurtured through Magic High Schools and Universities.

This is a story about:

A defective elder brother low achiever.

A perfect, flawless younger sister high achiever.

After both siblings entered a Magic High School,

The stage of daily turbulence was unveiled——.

Absolute Duo:Volume 4 Chapter 1

2014-08-21T19:43:59Z

Zatoichi: /* Chapter 1 『Is It Okay To Wish For It』 */ Yurie to Julie

==Chapter 1 『Is It Okay To Wish For It』==

===Part 1===
The first Saturday after coming back from the seaside school has arrived.

Seasonally, the world would completely be in summer mood but, that’s something unrelated to Kouryou academy.

With a minimum of one general subject lesson added in, Kouryou has taken consideration in the time for ability training-----battle arts, the summer break here takes the Bon festival as the main holiday and the break isn’t even one week.

Which that said, even though it’s the last 2 weeks of July, it was time where they should be heading back to school but-----

“Julie, Let’s get going”

While dozing off and sitting down, the silver girl opened her eyes when I called out to her.

“Ja-………..”

“Are you alright? It’s been hot every night recently, and it looks like you haven’t been sleeping much……”

“Nai. I am okay, please don’t mind me”

Even though Julie said that, the hot days will continue from now on, and there was a prediction that today was going to be a very hot day with a temperature crossing over 35 degrees.

(Uuun, it would be nice if there’s something I can do for her………..)

I probably can’t do anything with the heat but, I pondered on whether if there is something I can do when she goes to sleep, and when I was doing so-----

“Okay then, let’s go Tooru”

“Aah, okay”

Instead, I was the one getting urged and we left the room with Julie following me from behind.

Even though it was unneeded to say this, a strong sunshine was shining down when we got outside the dormitory.

“It looks like it’s going to be hot as predicted. It’s probably going to be tough but, let’s work hard, Julie”

“Ja--♪”

After the girl with {{Furigana|Silver hair|Silver Blonde}} nodded, the ribbon’s bell echoed and made a cooling sound.

In the familiar street to the school from the dorm----

There were students heading to the school in the surroundings and a lot of them were having dark expressions.

Even though it’s summer break--------that was the not the reason.

They were wondering if they '''''should continue attending Kouryou academy or not.'''''

The day they got back to the main school from the seaside school, the chairman’s talk that took place at the emergency school assembly was the cause for that worry.

Pretext—the attack that happened before was a revenge from a criminal organization which has fought the Dawn organization’s public order last time. Just like what happened, this revenge to the academy was the first case that happened but, there was a possibility that the same thing might happen again in the future.

With that based on, she left the decision to everyone on whether or not if they want to stay in Kouryou academy.

As a result, it caused many students to ponder on the choice for their future.

That’s because, the attack caused property damages because of gunshots and explosions not only that, many were injured and-------there were deaths in the two-digits.

That reality was the main reason why many students were worried.

It’s only normal.

They were just normal middle school students living a normal peaceful life until they enrolled Kouryou academy. A person’s life and death would only happen in the filter of the internet and television or maybe, in fictional categories like in games or Manga.

By the explanation we received before enrollment, there will be danger happening during training, lessons after enrollment and there would be danger during missions when they get employed into the public maintaining team after graduation.

However-----the notice this reality when they saw someone close to them had their life taken away from them.

No they were forced to notice this.

They were forced to notice that the path they are going to go through will not be a in a normal world but instead it will be the realm of abnormality.

That was why; this incident has become a big crossroad.

They can either return back to their normal world if they treasure their life, or they can make up their determination will advance through the world of abnormalities.

Conclusion-----

Until today, 12 first year students that encountered the attack have left the academy. Most likely from now on, more students will probably choose to quit too. From what I can see, half of the remaining students were pondering if they should continue or leave.

Maybe the upper level students has attended several somewhat dangerous missions in their training, there were less people that chose to quit. But even so, many of them were also pondering too.

Me----and the silver girl walking beside me, has chosen to continue this road.

As long as both of us follow the path of the <<Avenger>>, we had already made up our mind.

“…………It turned prettier huh, Tooru”

“Aah, that’s right”

We stared at the scars on the school in front of us that was caused from the previous attack.

Even though the enemy----who has the name <<{{Furigana|God’s Destruction Team|Libel}}>>, attacked the school for the <<Lucifer>> research facility located under the school, the most violent battle that took place was only at the school entrance.

The pillars and wall were damaged or destroyed and red-black bloodstains that came from either the enemy or comrade were sticking on them.

There were offering of flowers left beside the pillars. If there were students that stopped and pray, there were also students that quickly entered the school so that they won’t have to see that.

“………Let’s pray too I guess”

I joined my hands towards the flowering offering and Julie made a silent prayer.

Within the crying sound of cicadas, we quietly passed the time.

When he entered the classroom, there were only 70% of the total classmates excluding the students that quit, even though the class was going to start.

The people pondering on their course of action probably felt like skipping school.

I looked around at the classmate in the room, and leaked a small sigh when I could not see a close female friend----Miyabi in the class.

Her <<Duo>>--Tachibana was attending class and she was talking with a girl.

Nevertheless, it’s not like Miyabi was not in school because she was pondering if she wanted to quit or continue Kouryou.

She might still be shocked from the almost getting harmed by battle suit man but, she came to class and seriously attended class and training without resting.

But other than those time slot, she would leave her seat and won’t stay in the classroom.

I didn’t even need to think for the reason why she took those actions; it was probably the effect of the incident before.

'''''“I love you”'''''

Her feelings reached me, because the waves stopped.

Right after that, the feelings in her heart were put into her mouth and told me her affections to me.

But, I could not reply her.

That’s because I did not know how to reply her when I thought about myself as an <<Avenger>> even though I am happy of Miyabi’s feelings.

Ever since that day, the gears of the normal days I gained inside the abnormal days in Kouryou academy, has gotten out of order.

The last time I talked to Miyabi was right after we left the isolated island.

'''''“Tha-thank you for saving me yesterday, Tooru-kun………….and……….sorry………you encountered danger because of me, I am really sorry…………”'''''

Ever since, Miyabi would only apologetically greet me and would avoid having a conversation with me.

Maybe she wanted to avoid her clear change of attitude, she would show her face during meal time with everyone----but, no one noticed that there was no conversation occurring between me and Miyabi.

I can’t talk to her even if I wanted to.

This frustrating situation has been continuing ever since the seaside school.

(I have to do something about this………)

I have no idea if their changed relationship will return to the way as it was but, I will continue struggling.

That’s because I want Miyabi to smile.

Even if that smile was not going to be directed to me.

Soon, Miyabi quickly entered the classroom when the main bell echoed in the school.

Even though it was just as predicted, it looks like I can’t take the time to bring her out and talk to her.

(I guess I will take her time during break time)

The moment I thought that,

“Who is it~~?”

My view suddenly got blocked----and a sweet scent floated at the same time.

Someone was hugging me behind and covering my eyes.

“………Lilith right”

Without panicking and causing any troubles I took off her hands from my eyes and looked towards the girl who has dazzling {{Furigana|blonde hair|Yellow Topaz}}.

---However, I was far from calm in my heart.

That’s because her 2 soft voluptuous hills were getting squeezed onto my back.

“Fufu, as expected from Tooru huh. It’s definitely because we love each other in a normal basis”

“If I eliminate the people that would do this, Lilith would be the only one who would do this”

I shrug my shoulders to the gold girl who winked at me before showing a smile.

“Me being the only one would mean that I am special in a way right? Fufuu”

With another name called <<Exception>>, Lilith went ahead and placed herself and position herself in my special spot-----

“Uuh!?”

My view was blocked again.

Once again, someone hugged me from behind and covered my eyes.

“Who am I, Tooru?”

“…………Julie”

“As expected, Tooru, my <<Duo>>”

“Haha, you’re welcome…….”

Even though I replied with a wry smile, there was no way I would mistake Julie’s voice.

---The feeling touching my back was 1 of the reason for my conviction that it’s her.

Leaving that aside, the girls who covered my eyes were now looking at each other.

“………..you want to say something right?”

“He immediately knew it was me when I covered his eyes so, you aren’t the only one special”

“Hee, now you said it”

Lilith raised her mouth angle in an interested manner.

Without changing her expression, Julie looked straight back at her.

It was a glowing sun and a magical moon.

Two girls with opposite impressions were not in agreement like usual.

Julie turned on against the gold girl who wants to make me into her <<Duo>>-----even though with that said, it seems Lilith was not concerned about it but, for a rare scene, she talked back to Julie’s complaints maybe because her special spot was denied.

(Ya-re Ya-re, this two is the same…….)

I made a small sigh and was about to stop them-----

“Okay okay♪ Good morning everyone ☆HR is going to start so sit down♥”

Far away from the school’s atmosphere, a cheerful voice which was so cheerful that the person that made it was probably in the wrong room, echoed throughout the room.

Having released her real power to take on the <<{{Furigana|God’s Destruction Team|Libel}}>>, our homeroom teacher---Tsukimi was now valued in the class and people as someone to be counted on, when they witness her mowing down many enemies.

[Good morning White Usa-sensei] [You’re tension is high today too, White Usa-sensei] [Well it’s White Usa-sensei]

Replies and talks could be heard in the classroom when Tsukimi greeted us.

The thing different from last time was that she was being called “White Usa”.

The reason for that was-----

“OooRah! Hurry up and sit down you brats!!”

[It’s Black Usa-sensei mode] [This is bad, it’s Black Usa-sensei; this is bad] [Black Usa-sensei, scold more……]

Having her identity questioned when her real-self was seen; she showed her snapped off appearance to everyone.

“The gold and silver fighting over a guy there. HR is going to start so, hurry up and end the Shuraba triangle relation with the couple and mistress”

“It’s not a Shuraba or anything”

“Ja---“

“I agree with that but, I am curious on why I am called mistress when you looked at me”

“Iyaaan, the Ojou-sama’s check sure is strict huh♪”

“Seriously, I always tell you that I am the legal wife”

“Nai, I refuse”

“Why must you be the one doing the refusal!?”

The sights of the 2 girls with silver and gold hair collided again.

I made a small sigh, and stood in the middle.

“Come one, let’s end it at there. HR is going to start”

“……….Maa, it can’t be helped if Tooru says so. Okay then, see you later, Tooru”

Lilith winked at me before returning back to her seat.

“Okay then, now that I said that HR is going to start, its message time☆There is going to be a joint training with the 2nd year students today okay♪ Okay next; people that turned <<III>> will have to join a training soon☆Okay next; the people I am going to call now-----“

Turning back to her White Usa-sensei mode, Tsukimi was in her usual high tension, and I could sometime hear giggles from someone.

Inside that, I looked behind at a slanted angle.

Up at my view, Miyabi was a making a depressed expression.

It turned break time; I chased after Miyabi and called out to her when she stood up from her seat and exited out to the corridor.

“Miyabi, can I have a bit of your time?”

“So-sorry. I am in a hurry……..”

“Ah……..So-sorry”

She most likely did not have any special matter and judging by her recent state, I was able to guess that she was using this way to avoid having a conversation with me.

[[File:Absolute Duo Volume 4 Non-Colour 1.jpg|thumb]]

But even so, I backed down since she told me that she was in a hurry.

When Miyabi quickly turned a corner at the corridor and I could not see her anymore, I made a small sigh and dropped my shoulders; just when I did that-----a dignified voice called out to me from behind.

“Kokonoe, can I have a little of your time?’

When I turned behind, I saw my familiar and close classmate---Tachibana.

However, she was currently using crutches and it looked painful.

“Aah, what is it?”

“It’s a little about Miyabi. She looks tired recently so, I am thinking of bring her out for a change of feeling after school. So, err, you……….”

Even though she hesitated to say at the last part, her intentions were told to me.

Tachibana was saying that I should not talk to Miyabi now.

Tachibana probably felt something happened to me and Miyabi during the seaside school.

But even so, I feel happy for Tachibana’s thoughtfulness for taking Miyabi’s heart care first, even though it’s something obvious.

“I get it; I’ll leave it to you…..but, be careful and go”

“Umu. Its okay, we aren’t going to somewhere deserted. But, from what I heard, it seems the enemy’s target is the chairman, <<Lucifer>> and also Litith so, it’s probably safe to say that we aren’t getting targeted”

“That might be true but. Then, go have fun. Just remember not to force your legs”

“Fufu, you worry too much. Nonetheless, I’ll listen to your warning, and will be careful not to force myself”

Tachibana’s heels were diagnosed to fully heal in around one month.

Since the <<Exceed>>’s recovery ability totally excels a normal person’s, it seems she will be able to take off the cast by next week.

“……..also, thanks Tachibana”

“It’s not something to thank me for. It’s for my precious <<Duo>> too”

And after she said that and made a soft smile, Tachibana went back into the classroom and I followed her.

But----

At this time, we had no method to know this.

The fact that there was a malice that would drag everyone in its target’s surrounding into the problem without any hesitation,

The fact that Miyabi encountered a devil when she went out,

After noon; we headed to the medical building to have a check-up on my wounds I got from the fight with <<K>>.

The progress was doing well and it seems I and Julie will be fully healed by around mid-next week.

We were told that it’s okay to take light exercise and we quickly head to the training room after the check-up.

“Even though it’s light, it’s happy to get permission to exercise”

“Ja--. I did not move my body at all recently”

“Incidentally, we’ve been only studying nowadays………”

Taking consideration that there were many wounded students during the attack, battle and stamina enhancement training, has turned to lessons related to knowledge like general subjects, and special techniques for mission-purposes.

Thanks to that, whenever these past few days becomes after school time, days with thoughts that I might have smoke puffing out my head continued and my frustration continued to pent up. That’s why I am happy that I got permission to exercise and my legs turned naturally faster to the training room.

When we reached there, there were quite some students inside and they were using the room for their personal training.

Inside there, I saw familiar faces at the sparring space.

The giant Tatsu crossing over 180 centimeters and a small boy----Tora were sparring.

Strangers that don’t know their situation would probably think that Tatsu was in the advantage but, actually, since Tora’s <<Level>> was higher, he was handicapped with a weight.

“Tora, Tatsu!”

I called out to them from afar.

“Tooru, and Julie huh. Can you two move your body already?”

“If it’s light”

“Fumu. Then, let’s spare since it’s been quite a while? All this muscle head ever does is swing his fist with power”

Tora splendidly ignored Tatsu’s opinion which was “A man won’t use stupid tricks”.

“Uuuun, I guess I’ll pass. Sparing with you won’t end up light”

Thinking of our personality, I can see us lighting up in fire once it starts.

“Fuun. Well I have no choice then. It won’t even be something to brag if I win an injured opponent. The results would be the same if you were fully heal anyways though”

“Bullshit”

After I laughed back at Tora, I stood in front of the mirror.

“Shadow?”

“Aah. There’s something I want to confirm. Julie, striking?”

“Ja----“

Julie picked up training swords and stood up in front of a target that looks like a man which was located beside the mirror.

Julie’s self-training centers around sparring and striking and it seems it did not change today too now that she can start training.

“You aren’t at full form, so don’t force yourself”

“……………”

“Julie?”

The silver girl did not reply for some reason and frowned her eyebrows instead.

“That’s the line I wanted to tell Tooru. Tooru, you always force yourself”

“Uguh………..bu, but I only force myself in situations where I have to do so………”

“………That might be true but, you can’t stop me by saying it can’t be helped”

The side of her eyebrows dropped and her {{Furigana|red eyes|Ruby eyes}} looked at me.

I could guess her emotions when I saw the uneasiness in her shaking eyes.

(I see, she’s pilling her father’s image on me…….)

She might be worried that I end up like her father someday.

That’s why; I made a smile to feel relief before patting her head.

“Hey, Julie. You remember the promise I said about protecting you?”

“Ja---“

“I have that promise so I will not die. If I die, I won’t be able to protect Julie right?”

“Tooru…………”

“However, I will do my best to not be reckless. I’ll feel bad to make you worry too much”

“Ja--♪ it’s a promise”

Even though I lost to the feeling to make a wry smile, Julie made a smile in replacement for that.

“……..Go back to your room”

“Hnn? Did you say something, Tora?”

When I looked at Tora who mumbled something, he was looking at me with disgusted eyes for some reason.

“I am just asking you if you’re going to train or not. That’s because your mouth was the only part moving, from what I am seeing just now”

“Haha, I’m going to start now. Okay then, let’s start, Julie”

I made a stance towards the mirror while Julie looked back to the target.

The same time I lightly swung my fist towards my image shown on the mirror.

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pann*! *Papann*!! The training sword hit from the left and right and the target made a loud sound.

(She’s fast like I thought……)

While continuing my shadow, I thought of that when I sometime saw the silver girl’s movements.

Julie repeated slash with blinding speed.

However, she wasn’t reckless and I could see her hold back her strength.

After thinking I didn’t need to be worried anymore, I decided to concentrate on my shadow.

With half of my strength, I swung my fist, switched to the body movements Tachibana taught me and performed a kick.

(…………..my body still hurts when I turn my body. Next----)

After I confirmed the thing I was curious about during the fight with <<K>>, I switch to the left posture.

Hrungnir------unlike Mjolnir which is a one-hit kill move, it was a high-speed punch for diversion.

“Haah!!”

I stopped my fist after some shots because of the pain on my chest.

But, that was enough for me to notice.

(It’s true that my fist was lowered. But, it’s amazing that he can notice this in such a short time, what’s more during battle, that <<K>>…………)

It was humiliating to have my weakness pinpointed by the enemy but, it gave me good gains.

Leaving aside the chances that we might meet <<K>> again later on or not, i won’t be able to beat him if I don’t fix this habit.

“Tooru. What’s that move?”

Maybe he took a rest from his spar; '''''Tora saw Hrungnir and asked me.'''''

I told him about, me mastering this technique, that this technique got broken by <<K>> who found it’s weakness in the last battle, and the name given to this technique-----

“Hrung………Since it’s Norse mythology, Julie was the one that named it?”

A weird question came over”

“Aah. I thought of naming this as bullet punch but, it resulted into that”

“………………..”

“What’s wrong, why are you quiet?”

“No………you have to thank Julie”

“To Julie? Thank what?”

Without understanding his meaning, I looked at Julie with a questioning face.

“---------?”

It seems the silver girl heard her own name and [Did you call me?] tilted her small head.

“It’s a little but, I think it was refreshing for her”

Evening-----as usual, Tachibana talked to me with a voice only audible to me when I was picking the buffet for my menu.

Although we did not say who, it’s obviously Miyabi.

“I see, that’s great. Also-----Thanks”

“Fufuu. I told you this already during the day but, you don’t have to thank me. As a friend and <<Duo>>, I was concerned about her”

“So---where is she?”

From what I can see in my surroundings, it seems Miyabi wasn’t in the cafeteria.

“She said she wanted to run a bit so she went outside. She said she wanted to take back the times she did not run for the past few days”

Ever since <<{{Furigana|God’s Destruction Team|Libel}}>> attacked, Miyabi stopped her daily runs even though she attended lessons and training.

That’s why, I felt relieved when I heard that she was going to run again.

(It’s about that confession huh………)

I think of talking to her when I see her, once my feelings become positive, and while thinking about that, I reached the table.

After that, everyone had their dinner like usual but-----

“Hey, Tooru. It’s about the summer break but, want to go to UK?”

“Huh?”

Lilith has been as fixed member of our dinner table ever since <<Survive>> and it’s only natural to be shocked at the sudden change of topic.

It’s only natural since she invited me out to overseas with no warning at all.

“That’s sudden…….”

“Rather than suddenly reporting about our marriage, reporting about our relationship first would make things smooth later on I think you know?””

“………..We aren’t going out”

“It’s not bad to start going out after this chance you know?”

“Rejected”

Sitting on my left side, Julie swung her head and pulled me to take some space away from Lilith who was sitting at my right side.

“Oh my, Tooru’s the one to decide that”

“Before even the topic of going out or not going out, he has to go back to his hometown during summer break so it’s impossible to go to UK”

“I see, how sad. I think I’ll give up this time”

“Haha, this time huh…….”

While making a wry smile at Lilith’s reply, I thought about my hometown which was vacant now when I said those words.

There’s no family waiting for me.

(But even so, Otoha’s going to be lonely if I don’t show up now and then……….)

And, when I was a little sad,

[One, two……..] [[[Congratulations on your birthday-♪]]]

Celebrative voices could be heard at one corner of the cafeteria.

Noisy, cheerful and happy voices echoed in the cafeteria.

“Seriously, how noisy”

“I think it’s nice to have a cheerful atmosphere. Thinking about the recent events, I think this is a must”
I smiled at Tora who was frowning his face and told him.

“………Fuun. That’s true”

Tora snorted roughly and *Dooka* leaned against the back of his chair while folding his arms.

(Birthday huh……..)

My birthday was coming next week.

My heart felt dejected when I thought about it.

That’s because, the day before my birthday----was that day on summer.

“Tooru. I have something to talk”

Tora called out to me when we went out the cafeteria after dinner.

His expression had an air that won’t let me say no and-----

“…….Julie, can you go back first?”

“Ja---“

I made Julie go back to the room.

“Where should we talk?”

“Outside”

(……..Going all the way outside means that, it’s a talk that he does not want anyone else to hear”

While looking at his small walking in front, I started to think about the topics Tora would talk about.

After he exited the front door, the heat from the afternoon was still there and it felt a little hot.

The surrounding was naturally dark but, thanks to the light coming from the dorm, we did not have a hard time walking and we walked over the grasses.

“I guess around here is okay…….so, what do you want to talk about.

I folded my arms and asked Tora who was walking closer to a nearby tree----

“…………”

There was no reply.

It’s not like he did not heard my voice and the atmosphere he was giving off was as if it was something hard to say.

Judging by Tora’s personality suitable for the word speaking frankly, I could grasp the content of his topic as something serious.

Time of silence continued for a while and------Tora talked about his business.

“Still can’t mend your relationship with Hotaka?”

“Buuuu!? Wha-whawhahwahwa, h-how do you, no, you noticed……!?”

I did not tell anyone about my relationship with Miyabi had gone weird.

Of course, that goes for Julie too.

I thought the only one who noticed this was Miyabi’s <<Duo>> and at the same time roommate—Tachibana but------

“Fuun, there’s no way I won’t notice. In the first place, judging by your attitude with her until now, there’s no way I won’t guess that something happened during seaside school”

Just as expected from him.

Judging by recent state, I never would have thought that he would notice this.

Which means, I think this might be unlikely but, things might have turned complicated because of some reason……….

“I heard this from Tachibana during the afternoon but, Hotaka is going back to her home during summer break. Even though it’s short, it will probably be harder to mend things later on if you don’t meet her for about 1 week. That’s why, hurry up and do something about it before summer break starts”

“A-aah………Sorry, to make you worry about this……”

Whether it’s the last matter or the last attack, Tora has been helping out a lot.

“It’s not like I am worried about you, it just feel annoying……….and, that isn’t the only thing I want to talk about”

“Eh, there’s something else?”

I thought the problem with Miyabi was what he wanted to talk about so I tilted my head.

“It’s about going home. It’s not about Hotaka’s, it’s yours”

“Mine?”

Tora nodded and continued on with his original business.

“That woman said this during dinner time right, that you will be going back home”

“I plan on doing so but, what about it?”

“…………..Can I follow you when you go back?”

“Aah, let’s go back together. We are going to be together for half the trip anyway”

“No”

It was a quiet and yet strong tone.

When I thought Tora was different from usual, his face turned unusually serious and he looks a little stiff.

“I am asking if '''''I can go to your house''''', Tooru”

My heart skipped a beat.

Tora has been to my house many times in the past.

But, it was when Otoha was still alive.

During a dojo exchange that occurs only a few times per year, we became friends since we were the same age and not long later, Tora started coming over to the dojo to learn under the dojo and would often come over my house.

However----That was also 2 years ago.

Tora does not know this.

He does not know that the house no longer has anyone living in it anymore.

“I-I plan to stay for one night only so, Tora head back to your----“

He doesn’t need to know.

I decided to reject his visit so that Tora can only recall back the memories of the warm Kokonoe house of the past.

“No, I am going. Let me go. '''''Let me offer flowers''''' to---Otoha too”

“-----!?”

I was so shocked from those unexpected words that I gasped.

That’s because ever since we reunited during the enrollment ceremony I never took on an attitude that would bring him to that conclusion.

“You……knew……….”

After a while, I managed to squeeze my voice out and Tora tilted his head vertically silently.

“……….I got contacted by the dojo”

“I see……..”

I missed out something simple.

Because he was with us for a long time, it’s only natural for this to be told to him.

“'''''It seems the dojo encountered a fire disaster because of a tobacco misuse'''''. I knew this and keep quiet about it so, sorry. This may be too late but, this was just sad. She took quite care of me before. So-----“

“………I get it. Since you know about this, I am counting on you then. Otoha will be happy”

Whenever I and Tora spar, Otoha would be the one to treat our wounds.

I could clearly remember her giving her all to assist us from behind and I would probably never forget about it.

I would never forget the memories of me, Tora, Otoha, and----'''''him'''''; all 4 of us playing together.

“Sorry. Even though you know, this was something I should tell you…….”

“Fuun, don’t worry about it. Everyone has things they don’t want to say……….okay, our talk ends here. Let’s head back to the dorm”

Tora started walking in front and I followed behind.

Even though he has a foul mouth, I am grateful for him to be concerned about his friend.

However, Tora does not know.

2 years ago, the disaster that occurred in the dojo was not a fire but rather, it was a tragedy occurred because he swung his deadly blade.

The only one was me, him and '''''another person'''''-----

That person was the only one that saved me from that burning dojo.

But, that’s good.

Tora might be foul mouthed but he’s a good person, and if he finds out about that days truth-------

If he found out that Otoha didn’t die from that fire and was killed, he would be in rage and might get captive by revenge just like me so……..

That’s why, Tora don’t have to know.

I am the only one needed to have revenge against him.

===Part 2===
“Are you going to run now? It’s evening already”

“U-un. But I have been skipping these past few days so, I want to regain lost times as much as possible so………”

“…………… I see, work hard then. However, gradually take it back without rushing yourself. It’s bad to suddenly force yourself. Also, you have to eat dinner once you finish running. To avoid getting heat stroke-----“

“Fufu, it’s okay so don’t worry so much, Tomoe-chan”

Miyabi giggled to her partner who warned her in details just like a mother.

Tomoe got relieved since Miyabi has been smiling apolitically ever since the seaside school.

After changing into clothes to move easier for running, Miyabi told Tomoe that she will be leaving and left the room.

But------

With the sun set and the surroundings dark, Miyabi left the dorm and looked around restlessly. Of course, there were no students walking around in the night and she exhaled when she confirmed that there was no one around.

(Eeeeeerrr………..i think I should take more distance)

Since there might be students coming back to the dorm, the girl ran towards the south side of the academy dorm which has no one around.

The conversation she had with the old man today resurfaced in her mind.

““Then, let me bestow upon this-----The <<Power>> of <<{{Furigana|Ell.Libel|God’s Destruction soldier}}>> to you”

“<<{{Furigana|Ell.Libel|God’s Destruction soldier}}>>………….?”

“Fuhahaha, just like how the word is read, it’s a power strong enough to destroy god”

“Errrrr……….?”

Even Miyabi who was having a pleasant chat with him, became perplexed

Just what is this old man talking about.

But, the old man did not understand the girl’s perplexity and continued his words.

“You’re a Kouryou student right?”

“------!! Ho-how did you know that……!?”

Miyabi was not wearing her uniform and was in her casual clothes so; just how did the old man know that she was a Kouryou student.

Unluckily for the girl, she could not become alert since she told him her complaints just now.

What’s more-----

“Oh it’s simple. I am acquaintance with Tsukumo-Jou-chan”

“Eh………? Errr----Tsukumo? Is it the director? Then Ojii-chan is part of the research team?”

The old man----the <<Equipment smith>> showed a smile and didn’t agree nor did he disagree.

However, Miyabi believed her words were correct judging by his smile.

That’s only normal. That’s because there was no common ground between the students and the researchers coming in and out the <<Lucifer>> research facility under the academy. They would only coincidentally pass by them and greet them when they encounter them at the dorm or school.

But to the researchers, it’s not strange that all the students’ personal data has been seen by them.

Because of that, she did not doubt him and came to a conclusion.

“I am researching something else than the <<Lucifer>>. That’s this----<<Unit>>”

Tooru and also Tomoe misunderstood the reason why Miyabi was sad even though they were not far off.

It’s true that the confession was one of the reasons for it.

However, the main reason why she was depressed was because, she made the life of the person she loved-----Tooru, to get exposed to danger.

The cause that made her fall into despair was that she became a hindrance to him because of her weakness.

That’s why Miyabi yearns for it.

The one she wished and yearned----was <<Power>>.

And right now, Miyabi accepted the <<Power>> extended out to her by the old man.

When she entered the forest at the south part of the ground, Miyabi lowered her sights to the device accessory she was holding.

(Is it really true………?)

Even though she placed her finger on the device’s switch, the girl raised her eyebrows at the question floating in her mind.

Maybe that old man said it as a joke to cheer her up.

More importantly, no one would suffer if anyone can gain strength with just a push of a switch.

(But, even so……….)

It might be nonsense but, she anticipated something.

She wanted to say goodbye to her weak self.

As if to reveal her heart, she held the device with both her hands like she was praying and not long later-----

Miyabi pressed the button.

“Please, give me---<<Power>>!!”

Zatoichi: /* Part 4 */ misspelling

==Chapter 3 – Hard to Control==

===Part 1===

“Eh-he-heh─, now then, Sheltis-kun, which one is it? Isn’t it time for a decision?”

Eyriey held out two cards with a smile full across her face.

“Sheltis, Sheltis, the left one is definitely ‘{{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}}‘. I recommend that you pick the right card.“

“But you know, Ilis? The left card has been {{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}} eleven times in a row so I think this time the right one is {{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}}. Having {{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}} on the left twelve times in a row is……”

“You’ve said almost the same thing ever since ‘Having The {{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}} on the left two times in a row is……‘.“

“Shel-nii, do your best!”

While Yuto and {{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}}
were holding their breathes.

“The left side is definitely correct this time. This one!”

He pulled the left side card of the two Eyriey was holding out with all the fighting spirit in his body. He timidly turned over the card and……

“……Geh. Instructor Yumelda.”

“See, see, that’s why I said so.“

It was a card game that had secretly spread amongst the Cadet Guards. Throwing out the {{furigana|The Demon Instructor|Wrong}} card which had the whip-wielding Instructor Yumelda on it, Sheltis sighed for the twelfth time.

“……I lost again.”

“Yippie─. This is Sheltis’ twelfth time being last. Okay, just gotta update the records!”

Eyriey wrote the records of battle in a massive memo book.

“Shel-nii, you lost again?”

“That’s right─. On the other hand, Yuto’s strong─; you’ve been in first twelve times in a row now.”

“Ehehe, Yuto’s strong? Strong?”

Yuto rubbed her eyes from drowsiness with a smile across her face.

“Ah, it’s almost dawn.“

“……Oh crap.”

Narrowing his eyes at the clock’s digital display, Sheltis let out a little exclamation.

They had started this card game with the three of them at dusk. It was already around ten hours ago that the game had started with Eyriey adding the condition of “We’ll end it if you manage to win?”. He’d lost twelve times in a row already since that……so when he realized it, it was already the next morning.

“Eyri-nee, Yuto’s tired.”

“Right─. Then I guess it’s about time we head back since I have to work at the shop in the morning too.”

Eyriey packed away the cards they’d used for the game, half-eaten candy, and some strange invention-like thing into her bag.

“Well then, that’s that.”

“Ah, Eyriey, hold on. Are you okay returning just the two of you? If needed, I’ll take you there.”

He had asked Eyriey who was shouldering her bag to wait. Public order around {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} was guaranteed but there were hardly any people in the early morning so caution was required.

“See, there might be somebody like that purse snatcher you saw before.”

“It’s fine─ it’s fine─. I’ve already made defense goods so if anything happens, we’ll fight them off with the powerful flamethrower or one hundred million volts stun gun meant for repelling perverts, okay?”

“……Try not to get caught red-handed for possession of dangerous articles.”

“Got it, got it. Well then, we’ll come tomorrow or some other time to play again. Shasa-chan said to come play after all.”

“Tomorrow? To the tower?”

“Yeah, that’s right, is there something about that?”

“Well look, today is……”

He pointed at the calendar on the table when Eyriey tilted her head.

“It’s the day of the barrier transfer ceremony. The day when the Queen relinquishes control over Hyouketsu Kyoukai to a Priestess. I think it’s Syun-rei’s turn this time.“

“At the previous barrier transfer……you remember, the barrier was broken. Ever since then, even within the tower, security is strengthened during the barrier transfer. It seems that the Regular Guards take shifts patrolling the tower so even entering is difficult.”

“Hohoh, is that so?”

But Eyriey still looked unconcerned and seemed to take something from his doubts.

“But Shasa-chan said it’d be fine if I showed them this card.”

“Card? Ahh, this is a badge. It’s the same as the mine…………”

The plate was shining silver. While looking at the contents carved on its surface, Sheltis stood stock still, even forgetting to breathe.

“……Eyriey.”

“Mm?”

“Where did you get this?”

“Ehehe, it’s amazing, right? Shasa-chan secretly gave me it.”

“……Amazing……this is beyond that level.”

The floor access carved into the badge was ‘290‘.

Of the 291 aboveground floors that {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} had, every floor except the highest one, ‘Paradise‘ ── the display meant that she could freely come and go to even floor 290 which belonged to the Queen.

……Even Elite Guards shouldn’t be able to enter the Queen’s floor.

……This card is above that?

To access the Queen’s floor, the sole method should be the elevator inoperable to anyone other than those with the authority of a Priestess or Sennenshi. Even Cadres Guard Ishtar can’t enter the Queen’s floor alone. Yet why does Eyriey, a civilian, have such an authoritative badge?

“Eyriey, have you used this?”

“Not yet, why?”

“Nah……I’d like you to tell me if you can use this card. I’m a little interested in that Shasa person.”

A clerk of the tower?

Could a simple clerk prepare this badge so easily?

“Ah─ it’s fine, it’s fine! I wanted to introduce you to Shasa-chan anyway. She’s really cute and nice so look forward to it! Then, see ya!”

“Ahh, wait, Eyriey ──……sheesh, she’s really fast at these times.”

He had no opportunity to call out to her. Looking at Eyriey who had grabbed Yuto’s hand and was running like the wind, Sheltis relaxed his shoulders and folded his arms.

“……Shasa, huh. Was there somebody by that name amongst the tower’s clerks?”

===Part 2===

The cold passageway returned to silence.

Ymy walked alone on the dim floor which was lit only by a faint night-light within the frozen air.

Floor 22 of the tower.

She did nothing but continue deeper into that floor which was a gigantic general medical facility.

Past the giant lobby was A ward which was for emergency outpatients.

Continuing further past that was B ward which was for treating heavily injured patients that had to be admitted.

Further past that was C ward was for treating those with serious, life-threatening conditions.

“…………Okay.”

In front of the steel doors that filled her vision, Ymy nodded largely with the intention of spurring herself on.

There was something carved on the door which shined dark grey ── a formal carved seal that gave off bluish white light. The last ward, D ward, which was isolated by shinryoku-infused doors lay beyond here.

“…………”

She placed her hand to the sensor at the side of the door.

It happened soon after the faint shinryoku wavelength from her fingertips was read by a specialized device.

“Confirmation……regular link with the Shinryoku Theory Bureau……comparing……shinryoku waveform match…………confirming……identified as the fifth Priestess, Ymy Ele Soufflenictole.“

The doors opened in both directions with a stately sound.

…………

…………This is that kind of place.

Ceiling, floor, corridor.

There were formal carved seals applied to all of those. In the past, all the apprentice Priestesses had finished these by carving their shinryoku into the surfaces.

If not for that, it would be impossible to shelter patients contaminated with mateki. At any rate, if a normal person were to touch a patient contaminated with mateki, they would be infected with the same mateki at that moment.

“……Umm.”

She had last come here over half a year ago. Ever since she’d tasted her first setback as the Baptism Priestess, it had become a place she did not wish to visit on her own accord.

“D09, this is it.”

She confirmed the room’s name many times and timidly opened the door.

A pure white room ── the room’s ceiling, floor and walls were painted completely in white. A single boy continued to sleep there while attached to an artificial breathing apparatus. It was a small boy who was not even ten yet.

“Good……morning.”

There was no way a response would come. This boy had not opened his eyes even once since he was trapped in an eternal coma due to powerful mateki.

“……Sorry……the truth is, I wanted to come earlier.”

She might have been able to visit during the breaks between Priestess training. But she couldn’t. It would be miserable……she knew that her heart would only sink if she were to visit when she couldn’t cure him of his mateki.

“? Huh, the vase……”

A vase of azure glass sat by the window side which had its white curtains fluttering. In it was a single flower.

……There was nothing like this the last time I visited.

Civilians were strictly forbidden from entering D ward. Even family were rarely allowed to meet the patient face-to-face. Then who exactly put this flower──

“Does it not suit me?”

“!”

She turned around in a panic at the voice of the person who dropped by without a hint that she was there.

“……Horn-san.”

“I was wondering who would visit other than me.”

The blinder-wearing Sennenshi leaned against the wall with her arms folded.

“What is this? Are you trying to atone?”

“…………”

“If you have no business, then leave. You probably haven’t come to say anything to Tessha.”

…………

…………That’s right, that might be true right now.

Holding her breath, she forced her words of rebuttal back down.

“You look like you want to say something.”

“I won’t speak it.”

Turning her back on Horn, she faced the door.

There’s no meaning in telling her that I know that. That wouldn’t be enough to regain her lost confidence in me, nor would it cause this child to awaken.

“I will convey it to this child with my shinryoku……it will definitely be conveyed.”

In that room after the fifth Priestess left.

“…………What a joke.”

Biting down on the corner of her lip, Horn muttered that with disdain.

“……A dream……hope is not something you should put into words so lightly.”

As great as the sadness when hope is crushed and as deep as the despair when a dream is lost. In truth, not a single Priestess had been able to purify the mateki of this boy who continued to sleep.

……That’s right: they can’t.

It was mateki that had beaten her sister Viola and even the first Priestess, Elmeetia.

“──Tessha.”

She placed a hand to the forehead of the boy who continued to have his eyelids shut. She would not be able to touch him either if not for her Guard formal wear.

“Wait for me, I will definitely save you.”

She would find the Yuugenshu that commanded this mateki and subjugate it. She would find it even if it took months or years, and even if she had to traverse from one end of {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}} to the other.

“…………It’s time.”

She glanced at the clock on the wall near the ceiling.

“Well then, Tessha, I’ll be going to the orphanage. I’ll make sure to greet everyone on your behalf as well.”

Horn gently held the boy’s hand then left the room.

===Part 3===

“Sheltis, are you awake? Will you answer me, Sheltis?“

His comrade’s voice suddenly came from the communications device attached to the ceiling.

“……Fue? Kagura?”

He poked just his head out of the sheets from atop his bed. He shook his sleepy brain and looked at the clock even while rubbing his vacant eyes.

“Please at least let me sleep until it’s time for training. ……Eyriey and Yuto were here not too long ago.”

“Don’t talk in your sleep and get up. I’ll be coming to your room in five minutes so wash your face and get changed before then please.“

“Eh, wai……wait, Kagura, at least fifteen minutes ── h-huh? Kagura? Kagura?”

“…………“

The communications device clicked and went silent.

“……What was that?”

Raising his upper body off the body, Sheltis supported his head.

“Good morning, and what a nice morning it is.”

“Morning. ……Though it’s still really early.”

3:27. Not even ten minutes had passed since Eyriey and Yuto had left. Thanks to that, even his plan of sleeping right up until it was time to train at four was coming to nothing.

“At any rate, it’s something requiring immediate attention.”

Kagura with the machine helmet worn low over her eyes was as usual, without a hint of sleepiness.

“……Kagura, weren’t you not a morning person?”

“That’s right. But I became wide awake after seeing that.”

“That?”

“Yes, and I’ll be borrowing your work desk for a bit.”

Without waiting for an answer, she took up a position at his desk. Just when he wondered what she was doing, she reached out to the monitor and computer and started typing something quickly.

“That?”

“Yes, the famous agency terminal that’s useless to us Guards.”

Kagura typed in her own login ID and opened window after window. Even as he looked on from behind, he had no idea what was coming because he didn’t recognize any of the windows.

“Sheltis, what I’m about to show you is an anonymous message left on the General Affairs Bureau and Tower Management Bureau’s digital bulletin boards.

“What about it?”

Her fingers that were typing at a high speed stopped for an instant.

“I’ll say this ahead of time……please be prepared.”

Clack.

The instant she pushed the last key, all of the windows on the monitor vanished. In it’s place appeared a single article upon a blue background.

“To all of {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}──“

“……It’s addressed to everybody in {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}?”

He looked down lower with disinterest.

“To all of {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}──

I shall teach you a valuable secret.

A Yuugenshu has changed its form to that of a person and disguised itself as one of your Guards. In order to draw it out, I recommend exposing all the tower’s Guards to the Priestesses’ baptism spells.“

An absurd amount of time was required for him to process what the message meant.

……It can’t be that the Guard this message is indicating.

He could tell that his fingertips were shaking.

“…………What……this kind of tasteless message.”

Straining his voice, that was all he could say.

……Is this about me?

……Just who did this……who’s trying to agitate the tower’s unease?

“That’s why I told you to prepare yourself.”

Kagura nodded while lounging back on the chair.

“It was sent simultaneously to every one of these agency terminals. Right about now, the executives of the tower should be thinking it’s a prank but they might change their minds.”

“Hmm, can I ask something? I should have realized it as well if they sent it to the agency terminals. Especially if it’s related to the Guards, I regularly perform keyword checks.“

{{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}} blinked while not able to understand that one thing.

That was a given as {{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}}’ sensors spread out to cover the entire electrical system. It would be strange for {{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}} not to notice something that Kagura did.

“By the way, it seems the Guard Regulations Institute……in other words, the Guard Control Bureau received this message late. If we consider that the Environmental Bureau and the Mechanical Bureau and the others received it at the same time, the chance that sending it to the Guard Control Bureau was delayed is high.”

“……I get it. My searches prioritize the Guard Regulations Institute first of all so I was late in discovering it because of that.”

“Yes. In my case, I also hold the title of a computer researcher of the Tower Management Bureau. Thanks to logging in with my ID from there, I managed to be one of the first to read this message.”

Kagura sighed after removing her machine helmet.

“I don’t think there’s any need to explain who this is talking about.”

“…………Yeah.”

He didn’t know who was behind it, but it was a sly tactic.

While asserting that it had changed forms to that of a Guard, it agitated their unease without revealing the Guard’s name. Saying that they should expose everybody to the Priestesses’ baptism spells was also of the same type of method. This was basically saying to expose who this was in front of the surrounding Guards and Instructors.

“I’d just like to ask but what will happen if this actually gets implemented?”

“……It’s not something I’d like to think much about.”

Shinryoku was like deadly poison to his body which was afflicted with mateki.

If it was a Priestess-level baptism spell, even if Elbert Resonance did not occur, light wounds similar to burns would be received.

“As a silver lining, the tower’s executives are also pretty much disregarding this message. There have been numerous messages received in the past that aimed to fan up the unease of the tower.”

“……Is it okay if I have faith in that?”

“The basis for that is in who this message was addressed to.”

Kagura nodded. She temporarily removed the window being displayed and continued on to open several windows at the same time.

“See, even if I search for it, it’s only spits out red errors. Nobody within the tower or the Living Districts sent this.”

“It came from outside {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}}; in other words, it’s was sent remotely from somewhere in the {{furigana|floating archipelago|Lagoon}}.“

“That’s what it means. It would still carry credibility if it were from someone within the tower. However, how would somebody from outside {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}} know information like there being a Yuugenshu who changed forms into a Guard when nobody within the tower knows? ── The executives are also thinking that; well, it is the appropriate conclusion.”

“……From outside {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}}, huh.”

That would have to be how it is. There should be no way somebody from the
{{furigana|floating archipelago|Lagoon}} which lay outside of {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}} would know that secret which only a handful of people knew. Anybody would think that way.

……Then that’s even more reason.

……Who is it that knows my secret despite not being on {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}}?

“Kagura and Ilis, do either of you know where in the {{furigana|floating archipelago|Lagoon}} this was sent from?”

“……I’m trying my best but narrowing the scope to a certain extent is the utmost I can manage.“

“Same here. It looks like it will be a harsh challenge. Of course the sender’s name was also blank; basically, they’re anonymous.”

If that was what these two said, then he wouldn’t receive a favorable response no matter who he asked.

“……Thank you, Kagura, it really helped me that you told me about this.”

“Yes. But what will you do from now on? We have early morning training scheduled for today but will you fabricate some excuse and investigate?”

“No.”

He shook his head at Kagura’s idea and stood from his chair.

“It would like asking people to doubt me if I took a break immediately after this. I’ll train normally and think about this after that’s over.”

“That would be the most natural. I will be keeping track of all the executives’ movements so I’ll inform you if something happens.“

“I see. Understood……however, one thing.”

He could feel Kagura’s gaze through the eyeshade of her machine helmet.

“What is it?”

“You can ignore this case. I have a feeling that Monica will come to suspect your mateki someday. I believe it would be best if you think about what you will say to her at that time.”

“…………”

He averted his eyes from the steady gaze of the Nell girl.

“……I’ll think about that at a different time. I have to focus on training and this case for now.”

It took his utmost to say just that.

===Part 4===

A rocky area with boulders large enough that one had to look up at them obstructed the way.

It was a high-difficult field that necessitated Running between the rocks on a path that wasn’t a path and occasionally jumping from boulder to boulder.

“─is, ─ltis.”

Sweat trickled down his brow as he jumped from a large boulder to the next.

It had been dark when their early morning training started but now the sunlight coming from overhead was steadily raising the temperature.

“Sheltis, are you listening!?”

“……! Wawaa, wh-what? What is it?”

Sheltis finally came back to his senses after having his name called right next to his ear.

“It looks like you didn’t hear me.”

“……Sorry.”

Sheesh ── Monica had a wry smile on as she ran beside him.

“It was about our next mission. I was asking if there was anything you wanted.”

“……Then,”

While jumping down to the slanted boulder ahead.

“I’ve said it before but I’d like for us to gain experience in policing the Nature District and escorting VIPs. Since there are many missions like that after becoming Regular Guards.”

“That’s what I thought as well so I looked into it but both of those kinds of missions are out of stock.”

“Darn, really?”

“I meant to talk about that earlier but I guess you weren’t listening then either.”

Monica went from having a bitter smile on her face to slightly narrowing her eyes.

“It’s strange for you to be inattentive during training; did something happen?”

“Ah, no……I think I’m fine.”

He couldn’t say that he was helplessly interested in the anonymous message the tower had received.

……I don’t like the feeling of it.

……This might be the first time I’ve been unable to concentrate on training this badly.

“About the missions, if those are the circumstances, then I’m fine with other missions. Those two are the important ones but it would be imbalanced if we didn’t take any other missions at all……the Governmental Sector one was a little stressing so maybe we should take a more comfortable one next.”

“Ah, then maybe you should go for the night patrol shift?“

The mission of taking shifts to patrol {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s grounds ── when Cadet Guards were about to take on an important mission, that was one of the types of missions used to warm up. Even if it was night, it was within {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s territory so there was hardly any danger and even if there was, Instructors and Regular Guards could rush over immediately.

“Yeah, it seems like we could start patrolling the tower even starting today.”

“That’s right but I’ve been hearing that there have been a lot of troublesome things even in patrolling the tower lately, you know? Criminals looking for a reaction……there’s a troublesome bunch looking to slip past the security and infiltrate the grounds. Did you see that tasteless message this morning?”

“When you say message……”

“The one about there being a Yuugenshu mixed in amongst the Guards, or did you not see it?”

“Ah, well…………”

Having the question asked so forthrightly, he unintentionally was strained for words.

“……I saw it. Yeah.”

“Right? Jeez, trying to make the Guards waver with that, there’s a limit to how much they can try to make a fool of {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}.”

While jumping from rock to rock, the indignant Monica raised a brow.

“……Monica, would you find it unpleasant if there really was someone like that?”

“Hm?”

“Um, well, how to say this, it’s a little different from a Yuugenshu but…………if there was someone amongst the Guards carrying mateki.”

“? I don’t really get it but nothing other than the Yuugenshu carry mateki, right? That shouldn’t happen, but wouldn’t it be dangerous if there was one in the tower?”

She had a confused expression.

Only Yuugenshu carried mateki. If the former apprentice Priestess were to say, her definition of a Yuugenshu would probably be “whether it possesses mateki or not”.

In other words, he would also count as a Yuugenshu by her definition because he was endowed with mateki.

……That’s right.

……Monica’s reaction is definitely normal.

“Sheltis, were you perhaps seriously thinking about that message?”

“N-Nothing of the sort? But you know, I kinda wonder where that message was sent from.”

“It seems like an investigation would happen should it pass a certain threshold, but I doubt it will happen for this. It’s obvious to anyone at first glance that it’s a nasty joke, after all. It’s best to ignore those.”

“……Yeah.”

He relaxed his fist that he’d unconsciously clenched and took a deep breath. Renewing the stagnated air within his lungs, Sheltis jumped down from the final boulder.

“Whew, we’re finally done.”

Monica wiped off the large beads of sweat flowing endlessly off her and looked up at the sky.

“It will be noon soon so we’ll end the morning part here. From 3 PM, we have a lecture at the meeting room so we’ll gather there.”

“Hmm? What about Kagura and Vaiel?”

“Over there.”

The direction Monica pointed to ── the two of them were being chased around by the whip-wielding Instructor Yumelda.

“It looks like the Instructor is personally coaching them because they’re normally absent from training. They said they’d be doing it until just before the unit battles so I don’t think it will end for a little while yet.”

“……I see.”

“I was planning on heading to the cafeteria so would you like to join me for lunch?”

“Umm.”

He nodded reflexively but swallowed his words in a hurry.

“Sorry……I have something to do. I apologize but I need to head back to my room once.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah, but I’ll make sure to be at the meeting room. ──See you!”

Making a small wave with his hand, Sheltis ran straight along the paved road to {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}.

===Part 5===

The impressive stained glass colorfully refracted the sun’s rays shining down brilliantly.

The light and sound and, needless to say, the air of that place were serene ── a single female Guard trudged along in that floor serene with holiness.

“……Hr─m, this might be a probleeem.” [T/N: I've decided now that any time somebody stretches out a word, I'm gonna triple one of the letters.]

The second and third Priestesses. This floor was prepared for them as well as the Sennenshi guarding them and was reversed as holy ground by all the Guards and apprentice Priestesses.

To one day become the owner of this floor ── it was an place aspired towards for those aiming to become a Priestess or Sennenshi.

“Hr─m, hr─m, I wonder what was wrooong.”

Nevertheless, there was not a trace of nervousness about the woman shouldering a large metal spear.

She spoke to herself with her arms folded and a frown on her face.

On this floor where other Guards would become unable to walk straight due to nerves, she continued as if she’d just been invited over to a dear friend’s house.

“So the cause really is a dislike of vegetables? No, no, it might be the arrangement. ……Hr─m.”

“You seem to be enjoying yourself, Ishtar-san.”

A voice called out and stopped her.

She had flaxen hair and light brown eyes and wore a vestment crafted from a single cloth.

“Ah─, it’s Viola-sama; we haven’t contacted each other at allll.”

“It has been a while. You seem as energetic as ever. I was wondering if you would be a Sennenshi the next time I returned to the tower.”

“Ehehe, Ishtar is still inexperienced.”

“Is that so? See, I heard that Ymy is still undecided on a Sennenshi.”

“……Ahh, that’s right.”

A small laugh leaked out from the Guard’s lips.

“Well, that’s Ymy-sama’s decision─. Her destiny, so to speak.”

“That’s true. By the way, are you dealing with a difficult issue? It’s rare for you to make a troubled face so I ended up calling out to you.”

“……Uu. That’s actually riiight. I’m troubled about my little sister, I’sa-chan. Would you care to listen?”

The Cadres Guard drooped her shoulders with a heavy and dark expression.

“Yes. As a fellow older sister.”

“Well then! I made omurice for my super precious I’sa-chan a little while ago for her lunch, okaaay.”

“How wonderful. Ishtar-san, you truly care for your little sister.”

“That’s right─. But listen to this: I’sa-chan was happy up until I said I’d make her omurice……but she was suddenly in a bad mood when the time to eat came around and finally ended up bursting into tears.”

“Oh my, my. Pardon my asking but how did it taste?”

Faced with Viola who was tilting her head, Ishtar shook her head largely from side to side.

“It was perfect─. At any rate, we’ve been together for over ten years. I have a clear understanding of what I’sa-chan prefers for taste and presentation.”

“Oh dear, then it really is a difficult problem. I wonder if anything happened to worsen your little sister’s mood.”

“……Hr─m, I don’t have any ideaaa.”

Ishtar looked troubled to the core.

“Rather, to make her happy, I tried to feed her while saying, ‘Here you go─, I’sa-chan. It’s luuunch, it’s deliciousss.‘ Then I’sa-chan suddenly stood up and yelled ‘Onee-sama, you idiooot──‘ and ran away crying while still holding her spoon.”

“…………Well, that.”

“Right? It’s strange, right?”

“…………I think it’s because your sister is at the age of independence. You could say she’s really sensitive.”

“Is that sooo?”

“Yes, I as well……it’s not something unrelated to me.”

A shadow clouded the Priestess’ eyes and she smiled a little bitterly.

“That’s riiight, we’re both troubled by our little sisters. But Horn-chan is strong, so I think she’ll be fine no matter what happens, you knooow? I’sa-chan still can’t fight a Yuugenshu alooone.”

“Strength isn’t limited to excellence.”

“Yes, Ishtar is also of that opinion.”

Her expression suddenly brightened and then.

“─Well then, shall we switch topics to that? About Horn-chan.”

“…………”

With those few words.

That wide floor returned to silence as if frozen.

“I knew it.”

Her lips shaking with a giggle, the third Priestess didn’t attempt to hide her smile.

“Ishtar-san really is Ishtar-san. There’s no way you as the Cadres Guard came here for no reason. You had business with me from the start, didn’t you?”

“Of course─. If not, I wouldn’t be on this flooor; I’d be chasing I’sa-chan who ran off.”

“……Ah, so the omurice story was true.”

“……Though it’s regrettable, it’s true.”

Bursting into laughter once when she saw the Cadres Guard sighing once more, Viola pointed in the direction of her room.

“Shall we speak in my room?”

“No, no, don’t worry. I’m fine if we continue to stand while talking. The story about I’sa-chan was the longer one.”

“It’s scary if it’s too short as well. Well then, let’s continue.”

“Yes. Come to think of it, a long time ago, Horn-chan wanted to search for some Yuugenshu. What was the individual name for that?”

“‘S vector, eight class‘. The only witnesses were……children from the orphanage that went on a picnic. I’m told that it looked like a small black kitten when they first found it and enlarged when the children neared it, then attacked them. We’ve also received information that when the Regular Guards that went to combat it thought they had defeated it, it would immediately regenerate.”

“Hohhh hohhh, so if that was found, Horn-chan would fly out of the tower, ignoring orders from anybody.”

“…………”

“At that time, will Viola-sama be able to stop Horn-chan’s rampage?”

===Part 6===

{{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}, floor 11, Cadet Guard residences.

“……It’s scary seeing this.”

Returning to his room, Sheltis booted up the agency terminal at his work desk.

He entered in his member ID that was carved into his badge and windows popped up rapidly on the monitor. Finally, his fingers that were operating the keys came to a stop at the screen showing the mail.

Received mail ‘1‘

Sender ‘ ‘

“To all of {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}──

I shall teach you a valuable secret.

A Yuugenshu has changed its form to that of a person and disguised itself as one of your Guards. In order to draw it out, I recommend exposing all the tower’s Guards to the Priestesses’ baptism spells.“

“One message received and the sender is unknown……this is it.”

“Yes, it’s the same as the message Kagura showed you. It really did arrive later than hers. Though the motive for that in unknown.“

“……No developments; that’s a relief.”

He breathed a sigh of relief as he relaxed.

If a second message had been sent while he was training and the name of the corresponding Guard were written ── he had only avoided that worst-case scenario.

“Even putting the Priestesses’ baptism spells aside, starting with Ymy, Meimel and Syun-rei are also aware of you. If it comes to it, you should be able to deceive the others with their assistance.“

“……But we can’t solve the root of the problem like that.”

The sender was somebody outside of {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}}, meaning they were somewhere on the distant {{furigana|floating archipelago|Lagoon}}. But that sender’s name was blank. It was the same as having nary a clue.

……Somebody outside of {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}} who knows of me?

……The Governmental Sector? No, even within the Governmental Sector, there shouldn’t be anybody this well-informed.

“I wonder if my weakness has been grasped.”

“As long as your opponent’s identity remains unspecified, this will be a one-sided defensive battle.“

With his weakness in hand, the other party might come to him with negotiations. It was like grabbing at clouds but he also required information on the opponent.

“I’ll do my best and it seems like Kagura will also render assistance.“

“Thanks. I’d also like to think of somebody likely but the message is written like this and the name is also a blank space………………blank, ……blank……space?”

…………Blank?

What is this……nagging feeling?

Something……maybe I……am overlooking something really important?

“What’s wro──“

“Wait!……I need to concentrate.”

He even stopped breathing as he focused on thinking.

There was no name attached to the mail. It was a blank field without a single character written in it. But what if the fact that there is no name is the most important part of this message?

……Blank……blank……empty…………that basically means bla…………bla……nk.” [T/N: This is really hard to put into English because the furigana says "blank" when there's more variation. The first part is 空欄 (blank space). The second one is ブランク which is the wasei-eigo (Japanese-style English) form of the word blank, pronounced buranku. Third part is 空っぽ which means "empty" like an empty room. The last little bit is 空白 which is the kanji for Igun-I's name.]

…………There is someone.

“Hey, Sheltis, I’ve been awaiting the time we would meet in this world.“

There was just one person. A person who identified themselves as ‘{{furigana|Blank|Igun-I}}‘.

The assassin from the unnamed third organization that attacked the Governmental Sector together with {{furigana|Golden|Maha}}. He had confronted him at the floor where Mikuva’s Crimson Eye shone, that pitch black──

“……Igun-I.”

“Eh?“

“Ilis, you should remember as well, about that creepy guy we met at the Governmental Sector. He was looking down at us from atop the ‘Crimson Eye‘ and, in the end, said he had been waiting for me and wanted to meet me.”

“He called himself {{furigana|Blank|Igun-I}}……ahh, I get it. It’s the type of joke that I’m not good with. ……But I wonder if it’s really that person. Is there some kind of proof to confirm this?“

“There’s no proof; it’s really just intuition.”

But he could feel it.

This commotion within him like shivers was telling him that his intuition was correct.

“Chase me if you want to know the truth. Now, Sheltis, please chase after me. That will be the beginning of everything.“

……The beginning of everything.

……What awaits me after I chase him?

“Is this to lure me out?”

“It’s a problem that we can’t say you’re over-thinking things. Truthfully, I also have my doubts about that person. I’m curious as to who he is.“

“You’re also interested?”

“Yes. The truth is, that person, that was my──“

Immediately after.

The crystal portion that was shining brilliantly in blue lost its light and changed to a dark grey.

“Mm?”

“……No, I won’t say. It’s too much to say for a guess. At any rate, pinning down the enemy’s objective is a silver lining. We may be able to figure out a countermeasure so it’s most important.”

He clenched his fist atop his lap.

And──

“Oh?”

{{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}} who had lowered the intensity of her light flashed once again.

“Hey, hey, Sheltis, an urgent mission is being announced by the Guard Regulations Institute. The location is the Biotope’s S vector section……on the bank of a large salt lake. The nearest patrolling unit of Regular Guards is performing an emergency response so they wish for the Cadet Guards to also participate as a supporting unit.”

“It’s by the Instructor’s recommendation so there’s a chance we might be called.”

It was the same as the time the Regular Guard unit was wiped out by Golden Maha. The primary force would be Elite Guards and Regular Guards and Cadet Guards recommended by the Instructor would act as support for them.

“What are the mission details?”

“It’s the subjugation of a Yuugenshu. It broke through the encirclement……no……but this is…………?“

Separating from her momentary silence, {{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}} continued.

“There was a previous report about this Yuugenshu being sighted. Please wait a moment, I will retrieve the information from {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s Yuugenshu list.“

“……It’s a strong one.”

It was no coincidence that it had escaped once in the past and broken through the encirclement this time.

There was a high chance that it possessed a special type of mateki or exceedingly powerful mateki. To kill it for certain, two or three Regular Guard units would be required for a medium-sized one and three for a large-sized one.

“──”

He held fast to his card-shaped badge that shined silver. An order to gather from the Instructor might be sent to this badge at any time.

……If it’s a strong Yuugenshu, two or three Cadet Guard units might be necessary.

……Maybe Monica’s badge has already been contacted at this time?

“Ilis, how is the retrieval?”

“I just finished the comparison of the entire list, or in other words, the verification checks. The result of a comparison with {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s list yielded one full match. ……But this is troublesome.“

“The Yuugenshu?”

“Yes. You remember the area I said that the Yuugenshu was found in?“

“A large salt lake. You said it was in the Biotope’s S vector section──”

“We Priestesses call that ‘delayed sin type‘ mateki. ‘S vector, eighth class‘……that’s the common name of the Yuugenshu that Horn-san is chasing after.“

……The Yuugenshu Ymy had told him about that time.

“It can’t be.”

The reason {{furigana|Machine crystal|Ilis}} said it was troublesome.

……The one {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} is chasing after now is the one Horn is chasing after?

……In that case, this is bad.

“If somebody is afflicted with that one’s mateki──”

“Yes. It is mateki that cannot be purified even with the power of the Priestesses. Before victims appear amongst the Guards, swift subjugation of the Yuugenshu is necessary. In the worst case scenario, we will need to tell Ymy.“

The problem was Horn Nova.

She should have also received this information. She should be desiring a one-on-one conclusive battle with that Yuugenshu. But even for a Sennenshi like her, fighting a Yuugenshu whose mateki even a Priestess couldn’t purify while not in a calm state was too dangerous.

“……Ilis. Tell Monica to get ready to head out at once.”

He stood up without turning off the terminal.

He once again put on the jacket he had taken off and fastened the holders at his belt.

……I’ll leave the thing with Igun-I until later.

……This takes priority.

“Are you heading out?“

“I’ll head to floor 288 first; we need to stop Horn if she’s planning on running off ahead alone.”

===Part 7===

The third Living District.

On {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}}, it was the section that boasted the largest area of those which were inhabitable. The first Living District had {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} at its center so the primary residents were Guards of the tower or clerks that worked there. The second Living District was a commercial area with many varieties of shops lined up. Compared with those, this was more of a quiet area with houses.

“It’s been a while since I walked down this road.”

The intersection was dyed with the brilliant yellow colors of autumn.

Laying here and there along the road were flower beds made with brick and even now, kindergarten children were enthusiastically tending to them.

“……Time flows differently here compared to the tower.”

The fragrance of the flowers made him want to stop without thinking. In that place.

Pressing down on her chest at the nostalgic scene that hadn’t changed one bit since she had been raised here, Horn smiled without realizing it.

“……I wonder if everyone’s doing well.”

In the third Living District, there was an orphanage near Minamitoori Park.

Children without relatives, children who had been entrusted to them by busy parents, children who could not open their hearts to the those around them in kindergarten or elementary school ── they were everywhere but this was a facility that gathered up those children who needed a helping hand. It was a place akin to her family’s residence.

“…………”

In response to her high spirits, her steps quickened.

Advancing straight through the intersection filled with summer breezes and immediately after cutting left at the corner with conspicuous giant fir trees lined up, a building whose special trait was its fully white triangular roof leapt into her line of sight.

“──That’s right. They’ll be frightened if I wear this.”

She put her hands behind her head and unfastened the tightly bound knot.

The blinder fell with a swishing sound.

“……On the other hand, it’s hard on me without this.”

She looked down at the blindfold that had fallen onto her palm and smiled wryly.

A blurred world.

The blinder, her palm, the surrounding trees, the building; everything had two images.

The territorial type shinryoku spell that the sisters, Horn and Viola, possessed inherently ── it was a side effect of the power called ‘Celestial Map Drawing‘.

That was the power to see just slightly into the future.

It made shooting after reading where the opponent would dodge to possible and could be called a Heavenly blessing for a gunner. However, at the same time, the fact that she couldn’t control it herself was a weakness. Because the world of the present she saw with her own eyes and the world of the future shown by ‘Celestial Map Drawing‘ would overlap and blur, if she continued to view both, her brain would be unable to keep up and she would experience dizziness.

……Since I was born.

……Because I’m different from nee-san.

Her older sister Viola had acquired the technique for controlling ‘Celestial Map Drawing‘ as she piled on training as an apprentice Priestess. For she who could not do that, she was still using this blinder. By blocking off the world seen by her eyes and viewing only the world of the future from ‘Celestial Map Drawing‘, she was somehow able to keep her brain’s fatigue to a minimum.

“Well, it can’t be helped.”

She could feel some dizziness from just removing the blinder but she was meeting with the children again for the first time in a while.

Still holding onto the blindfold, she walked closer to the orphanage’s gate──

“Ah, nee-chan!”

“Ain’t this Horn-nee-chan, hasn’t it been so long!?”

The kids who were in front of the orphanage’s fence opened the gate in high spirits and ran over.

“Hey, hey, where did you go this time? Did you fight with a dragon again?”

“The same place as always. I didn’t fight with an earth dragon but I did find a wyvern nest. See, I came here with pictures of it.”

“Hey, hey, Horn-nee-chan! I baked cookies yesterday. I’ll share some with you.”

“Thank you, Nachez, but you worked hard to make these cookies so you should share them with everyone.”

Even in the time was petting the girl’s head, kids appeared one after the other.

Children that tugged on her clothes and children that hopped up on her back. There were likely more than thirty of them altogether and each of them was running over with a full smile.

“Oh my, I was wondering who it was with all these joyful shouts.”

Following the multitude of children, an elderly woman walked over slowly from inside the building.

“It has been a while since we last talked, Matron. You seem well.”

Standing up, she bowed.

──If somebody from {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} saw this, they’d doubt their eyes.

A Sennenshi who held a top position in the tower and moreover, that Horn Nova, taking such a low profile and even coming into contact with somebody with a smile was a scene that not a single one had seen.

“To be honest, I was worried. I heard that the Yuugenshu invasion had also reached here. Was there any damage done?”

The day all those living upon {{furigana|the floating continent|Orbie Clar}} feared.

The day Hyouketsu Kyoukai was broken and an unprecedented large-scale invasion was carried out by the Yuugenshu. She had heard that this orphanage had also been attacked and corroded by mateki.

“Of course we are all fine; we all evacuated to the shelters.”

“What about the mateki? Was the decaying okay?”

“……The decaying was horrible. The gate was broken and the interior was corroded by mateki to tatters. ……Just for that moment, I wondered if it was the end for this place.”

Perhaps she was remembering that time because the Matron’s expression turned rigid.

“……My apologies. {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s power was not enough.”

“It’s not your fault. And besides, now it’s back to as it was before. Hasn’t even the mateki been cleanly purified?”

The Matron of the orphanage’s reaction was slackened as she pointed with a cheerful gaze.

“Yes. It has been wonderfully purified.”

There would be traces leftover even after purification when corrosion occurred through powerful mateki. But no such traces were here in this park. The fence, gate and ground’s curses had been completely purified. The one who had performed the purification had done a good job.

“A good apprentice Priestess came here.”

“It was a Priestess.” [T/N: I'm dropping adding -sama to English words unless it's a name. I feel like it sounds retarded...]

“A Priestess spent the entire night going around this area and purifying it. Even though she was so young, she passed the night without taking a break. She even talked to each of the children.”

“……Who was this?”

“It was Ymy-sama. I hear that she’s known as the Baptism Priestess and she certainly lived up to it.”

“…………Is that so.”

A bitter taste was mixed into her mouth.

“Oh my, what’s wrong?”

“…………It’s nothing; I was just thinking that I’m glad you’re all safe.”

“Of course, and that’s all thanks to you sisters as well.”

The Matron hugged the children clinging to her.

“This orphanage……we might not have been able to rebuild it without your assistance. I truly am thankful.”

“I am glad if we could repay even a single portion of our gratitude for your raising us. Nee-san and I are both pupils of this orphanage, after all.”

“Amazing─! Horn-nee-chan’s like a man!? Nee-chan, aren’t you actually a guy!?”

“……Do you want to get dropped from there, Ragna-kun?”

“Uwaa, i-it was just a little joke, nee-chan. Hey, hey, if I enter ‘Sophia‘ like nee-chan and work hard, can I become strong?”

“Yeah, definitely───”

“Do you corner somebody dear to you with that tone too?“

An instant.

The words of the Cadet Guard that had criticized her at {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} ran through the back of her mind.

…………

……What was that? Why would I remember that at this time?

Even though normally she wouldn’t remember the words of a riffraff Cadet Guard like that, much less react to it.

“Err……umm, I was fascinated by how amazing Captain Horn is.“

“I……If I practice, will I be able to become like the Captain──“

……I see, that time.

It may have been because she had a similar conversation before that Cadet Guard said that to her. The conversation she had exchanged with the maintenance officer boy when she had entrusted him with the guns’ maintenance.

……What was my reply to Catria at that time?

“Discard pointless thoughts.“

“I don’t need unskilled people in my unit. If you’re going to subject yourself to techniques unsuited for your height, leave my unit before the end of today.“

“───”

“? Nee-chan, what’s wrong?”

“……No, I’m fine. Rather than that, you shouldn’t join {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}} like me──”

“Ohh, that’s it! I also want to enter that biiig tower. Think I can do it? Can I also beat dragons and Yuugenshu going bang bang?”

“…………”

She couldn’t find words for the boy whose eyes were filled with hope as he asked.

“Do you corner somebody dear to you with that tone too?“

……That’s different; this is……something like a child’s simplistic dream.

It’s different from awakening somebody who was already a member of {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}to the truth. This and yesterday are completely different matters.

“Nee-chan?”

“……You can. If it’s you, then definitely, Ragna.”

The words she spoke were quiet and clumsy to the point of being hoarse.

…………How annoying, really annoying.

…………Why am I being disturbed by that Cadet Guards few words like this?

Was it because it hit the mark? No, like I……can accept that. {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}’s bunch are all useless. They always can’t do anything without grouping up with somebody.

I am……nee-san and I are different.

Her family and comrades were only the children born and raised in this orphanage. Believing that, she had lived without relying on anybody from {{furigana|Tenketsu Palace|Sophia}}.

“……Horn?”

“Ah, no, it’s nothing, Matron. ──That’s right, I brought souvenirs. In the second Living District, a former colleague is running an open-air cafe. It seems like the cakes there are somewhat famous. Over there.”

She pointed towards a large box sitting on the bench behind her.

“Oh my, I’m happy; we’ll eat it during snack time.”

“Okay. By the way……”

Just before she spoke, the transmissions device hidden at her chest vibrated. Mail? If it was a call, it’s set to vibrate more. If it’s this faint, then it’s probably mail.

“Excuse me, I think it’s probably from nee-sama.”

On the screen of the transmissions device was the brief label ‘Tower‘.

──A simultaneous transmission from the Guard Regulation Institute?……It can’t be an emergency response at this time.

“Subjugation list match, in combat with the individual ‘S Vector, Eighth Class‘.“

When she first saw that name written there, she didn’t believe it.

Her sworn enemy she had spent many years searching for. It was the name of the one who had sent a child of the orphanage to the hospital. That it would appear with this timing of all times.

“……The Biotope’s S Vector?”

It couldn’t be called anything but ironic.

That was where that Yuugenshu had first been witnessed.

……It appeared just after I returned to the tower.

……Does it intend to ridicule me?

“Matron, my apologies but urgent business has come up so I will be excusing myself.”

“Is that so? It must be hard on you; you always patrol a troublesome place, don’t you?”

“For next time, let’s see. I’ll come to play when I find enough time to leisurely eat candy with everyone.”

Then Horn turned her back on her large family. She once again covered her vision with the blinder that had been hidden and looked only at the future world bestowed by ‘Celestial Map Drawing‘.

“──Together with Tessha.”

Towards the tower that stood out high in the sky.

Without turning back, the Sennenshi walked off in the direction of the tower.

Maou na Ore to Fushihime no Yubiwa:Volume 5 Prologue

2014-08-17T23:33:41Z

Zatoichi: /* Prologue */ added a space

==Prologue==

When there was just a week left of summer vacation.

Our long trip through the Netherworld finished…. And we returned at last to the human world.

Nevertheless.

Properly speaking, despite the fact that it wouldn’t be weird that our spirits reached the max in an instant, facing reality, I honestly wasn’t happy.

… Why is it?

Let’s try bringing up one of the causes.

Right now, in my home… Zonmi, Kyouko, Iris, and Lilith-san, those four beauties were staying here.

Why are they living at my house as if it was just natural?… I truly can't make heads or tails out of it.

Leaving Zonmi aside, who was originally already freeloading, about the other three it's truly a mystery.

When I tried asking each one for their reasons…

Iris:

‘… Dostn’t forget. Monster tamer. Art not thou the one who, not long after now, shall become my spouse? Is it so farfetched for two people that shall soon exchange vows to live together?’

Lilith-san:

‘Chiharu-sama. Have you forgotten your position? Aren’t you someone important, and able (capable) to influence the destiny of the world from now on? What do you intend to do if there’s no one to guard you?’

Kyouko:

‘M-me staying here doesn’t have any weird meaning, OK? Just, I mean… Isn't everyone staying at your house, Haru? So… If I’m the only one who doesn’t stay here, won’t the balance crumble…?’

Hearing each one making their own excuse, I got this kind of feeling.

So many people packed into the usually noisy Kusumi residence.

Somehow… I thought that our boisterous days would continue, but things didn’t go by so easy.

The reason was that the one who until now was the noisiest, Manami… Had become very depressed from Zonmi’s confession.

Very unlike her.

Ever since we came back, my sister Manami had completely holed herself in her room.

By the way, ↑ happens to be the second of the causes of me being in low spirits.

Since my sister wouldn't recover her usual mood, I can’t be honestly happy for returning to the human world.

“Hey, Manami. Why don’t you go out?”

“…”

Today once again, I… Though I knocked on my sister’s room, as usual there was no reply from her.

“… Just the breakfast, I’ll leave it here.”

When this morning, like always, I had left the breakfast before my sister’s room’s door.

In fact, it has been three years… I met with that person once again.

“W-what the heck!?”

<nowiki>*</nowiki>SHATTER SHATTER*

Suddenly, my home’s windows' glasses shatter and a woman comes from the outside.

“Gyaaaaaaaaaaaah!?”

The house… The house’s on fire!?

The reason may be the bird monster with a body of flames that woman is riding.

In the game world… This guy is what they call an Immortal bird<ref>aka Phoenix; why "immortal bird"? He called it 不死鳥 (fushichou) instead of フェニックス(FENIKKUSU), which would be “phoenix”; also, Kanae is known as 不死の魔物使い (Immortal Tamer, or Tamer of the Immortal).</ref>, isn’t it?

That monster, among the ones I’ve encountered up till now, seemed to possess a magic power of the highest class.

“Hey, hey. What do you say when you meet with someone, Haru-kun?”

“…”

The heck… Am I dreaming?

If there was a third person… They wouldn’t believe that this woman was, rounding it to the tens, about forty.

This more than 170 centimeters tall<ref>About 5' 7".</ref> woman boasting a bust size that doesn’t lose to her daughter Manami.

No matter how you look at her, she just seems to be in her early twenties, a 36 years old (divorced once) with a youthful sex appeal.

Kusumi Kanae.

The one who suddenly appeared before me was my true blood-related mother.

“But, hey… The house! The house’s on fire! Strictly speaking , isn’t there still loan to pay!?”

“Whaaat. That? Haru-kun, you’re a worrywart like always. Tei!”

“!?”

Right after mom snapped her fingers.

Something unbelievable happened.

My house, which until now was engulfed in flames, returned to how it was in an instant.

“My Torippee is a monster that rules over death and rebirth. It would mostly be that he can return anything to how it was?”

“A-amazing… That…”

Or perhaps, is Torippee the name of that Immortal bird?

Being that I’ve a contract with Zonmi, it’s not like I’m one to talk, but I feel that no matter how cool the monster is, the name makes everything comes to naught.

“Well, but he couldn’t revert my relationship with that man to how it was…”

“…”

Mom muttered while looking into the distance.

That man… Must be Manami’s father, Kamiigusa Yuuto.

As it came from my divorced mom, it wass an awfully crude line.

“You there… Why couldn’t you come back normally!?”

“… No, if I had just entered normally from the front door, it wouldn’t have had any impact.”

“Who are you concerned for!?”

Am I over thinking?

I’m sure I’ve made the same retort before.

“That’s good and all, but… I’m back, Haru-kun.”

“Welcome back, mom.”

“…”

“…”

Feeling a bad premonition, I, step by step, walked backwards so as to distance myself from mom.

Mom, so that I didn’t escape, advanced matching my movements.

A bad feeling made me sweat all over my body.

To be frank, speaking about my mom’s bad qualities, she has a personality, on par with Manami’s, of a doting mother to the point of a‘Jocasta complex’<ref>See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jocasta_complex this].</ref> on a level to make the ladies from the neighborhood spread indecent rumors.

“Ufufu. Haru-kun. Why are you running away? Well?”

“Back to you, mom… Why are you approaching?”

“It’s that, you see… Well?”

Right after mom showed a bewitching smile.

“Haru-nyan! I wuw u!”

<nowiki>*HUUUUUGGG*</nowiki>

My head was pressed against my mom’s breasts.

“!?”

I can’t believe it.

Though it’s like this, since going on a trip to the Netherworld and awakening my limiter, I thought that, as it is, I had acquired my true power (?) as a monster tamer, but… Mom’s movements just now, I couldn’t even follow them with my eyes!?

Said like this it may sound like a joke, but when I came to, it seemed as if I had been teleported to mom’s boobs.

Now that I mention it, Lilith-san had told me.

Mom was one of the ten people who reached the position of high class monster tamers and her true power was such that she was called a “living legend”.

It was when I was experiencing first-hand the boundless true power of mom.

“Mommyyyyyyyyyyyy!!”

<nowiki>*BANG*</nowiki>

The sound of a door being opened with force.

Looking to the source of the noise, Manami was dashing out of her room at full throttle.

Perhaps because she had been for three days straight living as a hikikomori<ref>Someone who due to one or several of a set of causes, like mental stress or bullying, holes up inside a room (usually their own). Check the Oxford Dictionary, the word made it to it.</ref>, her body let out a faint sweaty smell, but this time I’ll let it pass.

And.

Dashing at full power in the hallway, my sister, like that, embraced my mother sandwiching me in-between.

“!?”

Impending breast pressure. A pleasure Explosion.

<nowiki>*HUHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGG*</nowiki>

Caught by the pressure of the ripe W of breasts, I… Harbored quite indescribable mixed feelings.

The heck.

This… Homemade oyakodon<ref>Oyakodon or oyako donburi (parent-child rice bowl) is a dish made with rice, chicken (the parent) and egg (the child). It’s also slang for two situations, being the first one engaging in a physical relationship (either two-timing or one after another) with two women who happen to be mother and daughter (like in the novel and movie ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Graduate The Graduate]''), more usual in reality, or having a ménage à trois with a mother and a daughter, more usual in fiction and the main meaning on the Internet and manga and anime-related circles.</ref> development…

Though I’ve used “homemade” to name this painful to hear situation, in some sense I think that’s unusual.

“The one I love the most in the world after Haru-kun, Mana-tan.”

“The one I love the most in the world after oniichan, Kana-tan.”

“… Ein?”

“… Oin?” 

“Erm… You two… Could you not fight each other before me?”

A fight between my blood-related mother and sister concerning me… It’s not like I’ve kept up with the times, but…

[[File:Maou na Ore to Fushihime no Yubiwa 5 p017.png|thumb]]

“… Chiharu! What’s with this!?”

And, in the end, hearing the uproar, Zonmi and the rest came.

… Somehow, I feel that if I don’t ask now, I’ll start with Zonmi and the rest’s introductions to my mother and I’ll miss the chance.

That’s why, I… asked the question I’ve been thinking since before of making her without fail if I met mom.

“Mom. There’s something I want you to tell me.”

“Whaat? Haru-kun. If that’s what you wish, Haru-kun, ask mom anything.”

“… I want you to tell me about my father.”

Zatoichi: Fixed link

“You are telling me that a “unique-user” was found?”

Lisara Restole put the tea cup on the glass-table without making a sound. She looked up slowly and then said it to the small girl who sat in front of her.

“It must be a joke.”

“Ara, isn’t this rooibos tea from the human world? Fufu, it’s delicious.”

The girl continues drinking the tea as if she didn’t hear her.

“Cule, I’m having a serious discussion.”

Lisara stares her with sharp eyes, but the girl smiles.

“Ara, I’m sorry. This is a good tea, so I couldn’t resist.”

The small built girl called Cule smiles like a blossomed flower. She’s from the House of Zeria, which is a relative of House of Restole, which is a noble house amongst noble houses. She’s wearing a dress with detailed prints and she is adorable like a doll. For Lisara, who is the heir of the House of Restole, Cule is her cousin who is younger than her, but more than that she is an adorable little sister to her. Because of that, Lisara’s expression change to a bitter smile.

“But I don’t think it’s true that there is a unique-user that wasn’t noticed by Restole central.”

“I do not know whether it is true or false, because I have not gained the qualification of being a grim reaper. I just happened to hear Otou-sama talking about it.”

Cule twirled her brunette hair with her finger and she is a bit sulk.

“That’s why I thought rather than myself, Onee-sama will know more about it. That’s because Onee-sama graduated the first-class grim reaper in 2nd place.”

“That has nothing to do with it. Even I still haven’t been dispatched to the human World yet.”

“It can’t be helped since it’s Onee-sama. Since you are the heir of Restole, you are required to make a pact with a human who is suitable rather than commoners who are lying around.”

“I see. So for someone to be suitable for me, you brought the rumour about that unique-user to me.”

Lisara made a small laugh and then drank the tea.

“Thank you Cule. Lots of things happened with the House of Zeria in the past, but I’m happy about the friendship I have with you.”

“You are making me shy about friendship. I think of Lisara-oneesama as my real Onee-sama you know?”

“Fufu. I feel the same way, Cule.”

Cule made a sound of happiness with that word. While looking at Cule who is like her little sister, Lisara rests her chin on her hand.

“House of Zeria….. Certainly Cule’s uncle is at the position where he can get information about it. If I can, I definitely want to make a pact. But I’m not sure if this case will come to me.”

“Ara, is there anyone more suitable than Onee-sama who is the next head of house of Restole?”

“Cule, you may not know but my position isn’t certain yet. The talk about me being the next head isn’t something which is decided yet. And there are lots of people opposing about it.”

“Is that true……?”

Cule looks down and stirs the rooibos tea with a spoon. Lisara probably can’t see it, but Cule must have a sad expression on her adorable face.

"You do not have to worry that much about it Cule. I, Lisara Restole, can pass through any small obstacles like that. So don’t worry much about it, okay?”

“Lisara Onee-sama…… Ah.”

Cule looks up while having the spoon left inside the tea cup in bad manners.

“Let’s take it first then Onee-sama!”

Zatoichi: /* Chapter 2: Welcome to the Underworld! */ misspelled word

{{Incomplete|percentage=29}}
==Chapter 2: Welcome to the Underworld!==

And, opening my eyes, before me was a plain of sea… And so we return to the present.

I tried asking about the situation to Iris.

It seems that, once we were swallowed by the mysterious giant fish, we were transported all the way to the Netherworld through a side Abyss Gate that exists under the sea.

… No, If I’m dreaming I want to wake up.

They say that the different Abyss Gates that exist on land, sea and sky have each one their own control post from the IMA to strictly manage them.

Though I’d like to think that all of this was a joke… It seems that the giant fish that swallowed us is a major mean of transport at the Netherworld to cross the underwater Abyss Gate.

From the start, it seems that this was the reason why Iris & Zonmi, having lived at the Netherworld for a long time, didn’t evade the attack of the giant fish.

But then… I still don’t have the feeling of “I came to the Netherworld”. It’s not that my personal image of the netherworld includes things like the “Mountain of Nails”<ref>A mountain with nails or spikes where repentants sit over to meditate, suffer and pay for their sins that supposedly exists in Hell according to Japanese Buddhist mythology.</ref> or the “Sea of Blood”<ref>Just that. It’s also a main spot of Japanese Hell.</ref>. Right now, if we take out part of the scenery<ref>I suppose he talks about the body-builder gulls.</ref>, it doesn’t seem to be many changes from the human world.

“Then… Where are Zonmi and the rest?”

If my memory serves right… I think both Zonmi and Kyouko were also swallowed by the fish.

Though I could call back Zonmi & Kyouko by summoning if I felt like it… It would be a pain if I left Manami out.

As I tried asking, feeling uneasy, Iris quietly snorted,

“… Thy worries are not required. If it’s them lasses, they are yonder, scrutinizing what bathing suit they shall change into.”

“… Is that so? If everyone is safe, that’s fine.”

That was close.

Had I summoned Zonmi and the rest while they were changing into their swimsuits… I can easily guess what follows.

“About bathing suits… Even though it’s the same what to change into… It seems they largely wanted to cater to thy affections.”

Mumbling unintelligibly, Iris added something.

Where Iris was looking at, there was a shed that seemed to be a beach hut.

… Guessing from her way of talking, do they run a swimsuit rental service on that hut?

“For saying that any one was fine, it seems you’ve chosen a cheekily cute swimsuit.”

“Nu…? Nunu!?”

As I jokingly told that, Iris reacted in a panicked fashion.

“T-thou…!! W-what hallucinations dost thou speak of!?

My choosing of this bathing suit… T-this one was simply the first I put my eyes unto… It certainly has no other meaning…”

“… N-no. I understand. Since I understand. Don’t glare at me like that…”

I wonder why she has denied it so vehemently.

Iris is, after all, a girl of that age (?).

Taking her time choosing her swimsuit… It’s nothing weird.

Rather, I think that would have been the normal thing…

“… Chiharu. Have you finally woken up?”

Along with the sound of the waves came a dignified '' alto '' <ref>Kind of voice lower than ''mezzosoprano'' and higher than ''tenor''. Known as ''contralto'' when referring to female and child voices, it’s the lowest pitch a woman can have (bar exceptional cases due to natural or artificial hormone disorders).</ref> voice.

“Uoh!?”

I unintentionally let out a high pitch cry.

Turning over my head, Zonmi, clad in a swimsuit, was standing next to me.

“O-oniichan. You woke up—♪”

“…’d grief. Till when would you keep sleeping.”

One after another, Kyouko (in a swimsuit) & Manami (in a swimsuit) also rushed to my side.

By the way, while we are at it, I’ll explain what kinds of swimsuits each of them are wearing—

Zonmi and Kyouko are wearing, respectively, a white bikini and a black one.

Zonmi’s swimsuit comes with a classy pareo, the neat feeling fits to a T with Zonmi’s honor student personality.

Kyouko’s swimsuit is a string bikini with the cloth area reduced to the extreme, signs of the efforts to release a bit of sexiness while concealing the body handicaps (like the bust size) can be seen.

About Manami, though it reaches the level of, if possible, no comments… It was a shell bikini made from three shell, on the smallish side (Japanese scallop?), that cover the breast and the nether regions. Deplorable.

“Uffu~n♪ How’s it—? Having taken the trouble of coming to the Netherworld, Manami has turned into a mermaid monster. Graah!! Graah, graah!!”

“…”

Manami mimicked sound was absolutely unlike any ones a mermaid would made.

The usual me would have made a retort in disgust, but… The current me didn’t have that composure.

“… Chiharu? Could it be that you are feeling unwell? In that case… You may better rest under that tree’s shadow…”

“…”

“Haru? What’s the matter? Maybe coming to the Underworld has been such a shock—”

“I-it’s not like that, Kyouko-oneechan!? Look again!”

Manami opened her eyes round as if seeing an extremely astounding scene.

“Could it be… It may be the first time seeing this even for Manami… O-oniichan, are you crying for reals!?”

““… What?””

For an instant, Zonmi & Kyouko were left with their mouths agape and face of not knowing what’s what, but as soon as they realized I was, in fact, crying, their countenances clouded.

So.

As soon as I saw these chicks in swimsuits, recalling a trauma of mine, of all things, I started shedding manly tears.

“Say, girls… Could you keep quiet and listen to my story?”

Since, unusual in me, I started to speak in a serious mood, the four girls nodded in silence and waited for my words.

“That… Happened last summer.

Since the holydays were coming to an end without nothing happening, it was intolerable. With Youhei… We both went to the beach on the last day of summer.

On paper, the plan was to pick up girls.

However, let’s think camly about it.

When two dull male highschool students whose history without girlfriend = their age, will they succeed in picking up girls?

No, even if they accept the challenge and without fail they suffer honorable defeat, I think that’s still one more page on the bitter memories of youth.

However, you know… What sadly happened was that we weren’t able to call out to a single girl. Without courage, we couldn’t even set foot on the match stage.

And so, you know? I made a promise with Youhei.

‘Next summer, surrounded by girls in swimsuits, we’ll live a rose-colored youth’, we promised.

Yohei… My… Our dream, I realized it.

How I wish you too… Could see this scenery.”

““““…””””

How was it, this trauma of mine deeper than the Mariana trench<ref>A submarine trench, 1,580 miles in length and with an average width of 43 miles, located near the Mariana Islands (the most known of them is Guam), halfway between Japan and Papua-New Guinea; it has the deepest known spot in Earth, Challenger Deep (30,069±131 ft; error mainly due to the magnitude of the measure plus differences in the tide level) and a non-confirmed deeper point of 6.85 miles.</ref> I’ve presented to you?

Being considerate with the seriousness of the mood (?) all of the girls remained silent.

… Nevertheless, that’s only natural.

Though I’ve come into contact once or twice with the girls’ pasts, this is the first time I talk about mine of my own volition with my own words.

“Hehe! My bad… Getting all melancholic over such a thing… Forget what I just said.”

Like that, putting an end to it with what I reckon are the coolest words, I suddenly noticed.

Looking at them, contrary to my expectations—.

“… Erm, excuse me. I don’t know how do I have to react before such an unfunny story told with a serious face…”

“… How do I put it, where was the emotive part in the story just now?”

“Oniichan, learn to read the mood…”

“What a folly, monster tamer…”

“Uh… wha…”

I’ve been told as they liked.

<nowiki>*GRRR</nowiki>* These wenches don’t understand.

The feelings of two male highschoolers who went to the beach trying to pick up girls, didn’t have to courage to call up to them and ended up without no other choice to spend the time but picking up jellyfish that were washed ashore inside a vinyl bag (true story).

“Well… Saying it with simple words, your swinswits are excessively cute and the best. These are tears of joy.”

“…”

This is bad. Could it be I’ve dug my grave deeper?

The girls have once again become silent and have hung her heads down.

So it seems.

From the start, it seems that this was the reason why Iris & Zonmi, having lived at the Netherworld for a long time, didn’t evade the attack of the giant fish.

But then… I still don’t have the feeling of “I came to the Netherworld”. It’s not that mypersonal image of the netherworld includes things like the “Mountain of Nails”<ref>A mountain with nails or spikes where repentants sit over to meditate, suffer and pay for their sins that supposedly exists in Hell according to Japanese Buddhist mythology.</ref> or the “Sea of Blood”<ref>Just that. It’s also a main spot of Japanese Hell.</ref>. Right now, if we take out part of the scenery<ref>I suppose he talks about the body-builder gulls.</ref>, it doesn’t seem to be many changes from the human world.

“Then… Where are Zonmi and the rest?”

If my memory serves right… I think both Zonmi and Kyouko were also swallowed by the fish.

Though I could call back Zonmi & Kyouko by summoning if I felt like it… It would be a pain if I left Manami out.

As I tried asking, feeling uneasy, Iris quietly snorted,

“… Thy worries are not required. If it’s them girls, they are yonder, scrutinizing what bathing suit they shall change into.”

“… Is that so? If everyone is safe, that’s fine.”

That was close.

Had I summoned Zonmi and the rest while they were changing into their swimsuits… I can easily guess what follows.

“About bathing suits… Even though it’s the same what to change into… It seems they largely wanted to cater to thy affections.”

Mumbling unintelligibly, Iris added something.

Where Iris was looking at, there was a shed that seemed to be a beach hut.

… Guessing from her way of talking, do they run a swimsuit rental service on that hut?

“For saying that any one was fine, it seems you’ve chosen a cheekily cute swimsuit.”

“Nu…? Nunu!?”

As I jokingly told that, Iris reacted in a panicked fashion.

“T-thou…!! W-what hallucinations dost thou speak of!?

My choosing of this bathing suit… T-this one was simply the first I put my eyes unto… It certainly has no other meaning…”

“… N-no. I understand. Since I understand. Don’t glare at me like that…”

I wonder why she has denied it so vehemently.

Iris is, after all, a girl of that age (?).

Taking her time choosing her swimsuit… It’s nothing weird.

Rather, I think that would have been the normal thing…

“… Chiharu. Have you finally woken up?”

Along with the sound of the waves came a dignified '' alto '' <ref>Kind of voice lower than ''mezzosoprano'' and higher than ''tenor''. Known as ''contralto'' when referring to female and child voices, it’s the lowest pitch a woman can have (bar exceptional cases due to natural or artificial hormone disorders).</ref> voice.

“Uoh!?”

I unintentionally let out a high pitch cry.

Turning over my head, Zonmi, clad in a swimsuit, was standing next to me.

“O-oniichan. You woke up—♪”

“…’d grief. Till when would you keep sleeping.”

One after another, Kyouko (in a swimsuit) & Manami (in a swimsuit) also rushed to my side.

By the way, while we are at it, I’ll explain what kinds of swimsuits each of them are wearing—

Zonmi and Kyouko are wearing, respectively, a white bikini and a black one.

Zonmi’s swimsuit comes with a classy pareo, the neat feeling fits to a T with Zonmi’s honor student personality.

Kyouko’s swimsuit is a string bikini with the cloth area reduced to the extreme, signs of the efforts to release a bit of sexiness while concealing the body handicaps (like the bust size) can be seen.

About Manami, though it reaches the level of, if possible, no comments… It was a shell bikini made from three shell, on the smallish side (Japanese scallop?), that cover the breast and the nether regions. Deplorable.

“Uffu~n♪ How’s it—? Having taken the trouble of coming to the Netherworld, Manami has turned into a mermaid monster. Graah!! Graah, graah!!”

“…”

Manami mimicked sound absolutely unlike any ones a mermaid would made.

The usual me would have made a retort in disgust, but… The current me didn’t have that composure.

“… Chiharu? Could it be that you are feeling unwell? In that case… You may better rest under that tree’s shadow…”

“…”

“Haru? What’s the matter? Maybe coming to the Underworld has been such a shock—”

“I-it’s not like that, Kyouko-oneechan!? Look better!”

Altina, the red-haired and crimson-eyed princess who wields the supreme ruler’s sword. She was appointed to become the commander of the remote region's army despite being fourteen years old, simply for being the Emperor's illegitimate child. However, she is holding onto her big dream without being depressed in the environment she is in. “I trust you.” Regis, who was sought from her as a tactician, stands up to the obstacles together with her. The military fantasy interweaved by the bibliophagic boy and the princess with the supreme ruler’s sword.

==Story Synopsis==

Magic.

Is a product of neither legends nor fairy tales, but instead has become a technology of reality since a time unknown to people.

Supernatural power became a technology systematized through magic, while magic became a technical skill. A "Supernatural Power User" became a "Magic Technician".

Magic Technicians (in short, Magicians) are nurtured through Magic High Schools and Universities.

This is a story about:

A defective elder brother low achiever, who is lousy at magic but is an honors student.

A perfect, flawless younger sister high achiever, who is good at everything.

After both siblings entered a Magic High School,

The stage of daily turbulence was unveiled——.

Seikoku no Ryuu Kishi: Volume 3 Chapter 4

2013-08-25T00:03:43Z

Zatoichi: Epilogue missing last 'e'

{{Incomplete|percentage=20}}
==Chapter 4 - The Battle at Willingham Mausoleum==
===Part 1===
During the midnight, Ash slowly sat up.

“It hurtssss…”

Because of the pain in his joins, he can’t have a good sleep. It is because that he was playing in the waters during the day.

Silvia and Eco were riding on Lancelot.

Jessica was riding on Rhiannon.

Without any warning, a normal fun on the waters had turned into a two side’s battle field of ‘Fighting for Ash’. If they really wanted to play
something, Ash hoped that it would be a more peaceful game.

But the swimming wear that Eco and Silvia wore was deeply engraved in Ash’s mind.

Eco was wearing a white swimming suit which brings out her cute self. Even though her body is still far from perfect, there are still guys who
are sure to fall for her innocent self. Although her true ruthless attitude will be exposed when she speak…

On the other hand, Silvia was wearing a sexy bikini. Ash was going to have a nose bleed just by thinking about it. For sure it was not Silvia
who chooses a bikini that exposes that much of skin, but Cosette who was the culprit who force it on her.

Ash quickly removes all this troubles from his mind and left his bed.

The bedroom in the training camp is a twin sharing bedroom. Max was sleeping soundly at the bed beside. Eco was not in the room. It is because
the neat freak Max said that ‘sharing a room with a girl is illogical’, so Eco was taken care by the other girls.

Logically speaking, since it was Cosette, there should not be a reason for him to worry… But Ash had been together with Eco for a long time.
Once Eco is not beside him, he felt uneasy as if a part of his heart is lacking.

“Can’t… I really can’t sleep.”

Ash sighed, and slowly stood up. Then, he left the room and wanted to ask for a cup of water in the kitchen.

Ash was walking at fast pace at the corridor of the second floor. The old building felt like a haunted house. The kitchen was located at the
first floor, so he was walking towards the stairs.

The moonlight shines through the windows. Tonight is a full moon with silver lights.

“…Huh?”

Ash stopped beside a window.

He felt a shadow passed by.

“That is…”

Every single corner of the garden can be seen through the corridor’s windows. A girl can be seen walking under the moonlight. She was wearing
a one-piece pajama. Ash recognized her.

“Is it… Lukka?”

Under the moonlight, the golden white here is emitting a mysterious light. Even her white ceramic liked skin was a if they were shining. Her
pointy ears can be seen indistinctly poking out from her hair.

Lukka walked past the garden with her unsteady steps and through the old back door. After the back door is an endless piece of forest- Norg
Forrest.

In a blink of an eye, Lukka disappear inside the forest.

“Hey… What was she thinking?”

Ash rushed down the stairs to the garden through the door specially used by the instructors. He rushed at a fast speed to the back door
following the stone slabs. After he was mentally prepared, he walked to the forest.

But, just as he step into the Norg Forrest, he immediately took a step back.

“…Are you kidding me?”

Ash originally thought that he was used moving in the forest, but that is only limited to day time. This is the first time he went to the
forest at night. Even the wet ground had a different smell. The nocturnal animals and bug creeps the hell out of him. The lushly branches of
the trees had the sky covered which also blocked the moonlight from piercing in. Also, there were sounds that was suspected to be the sounds
of an owl.

''Could it be that Lukka is just an imagination?'' Ash secretly hoped that this is true.

“Wait a minute…”

The Eckbalds were also known as the ‘Forest Yōsei’. Actually, the self ruling territory of the Eckbald in the Knight Country is a wide forest
called ‘Eckbald forest’. Maybe to Lukka, every forest is like the garden back at her home.

After Ash mustered his courage, he moved forward while trying to feel around with his hands. The rough tree bark made him feel at ease, but
every time he touches something slimy, he will immediately retract his hand. If there is a small animal that passed by his feet, he will
immediately jumped.

“This is bad for my heart…”

Ash complained while walking and unconsciously thought about Gawain. All the other dragons were together in the dragon house of the training
camp and only Gawain alone was resting in Norg Forest. It is because Norg Forest is a well known resting spot for dragons.

“I see. She went to look for Gawain…”

Ash who realized the truth continued to walk deeper into the forest.

After a while, his field of vision widens.

In front of him is an empty space. The moonlight shines directly from the sky. There is a in the empty space, and the water was reflecting the
moonlight.

Gawain cuddled itself while lying beside the pond.

Its shining white fur was reflecting the moonlight.

Lukka was standing some distance away from Gawain. For a breeder, the amount of distance was weird.

Ash found out that Lukka’s shoulders were shaking.

“Please, Gawain. I… can’t live without you.”

Lukka was calling after Gawain in a pitiful tone. Ash hid behind a tree a listen to her.

“The only Eckbald left in Ansarivan… is only me. The people in our home town have high hopes on me.”

Gawain didn’t answer. It is still with its same old self.

“Why must you go against me? I had always treated you as a family. When you became a maestro, I was very happy. But why…?”

Suddenly, some unexpected things happened.

“Grrrrrr…”

Gawain actually lifted its neck to scare Lukka. Lukka was afraid to move forward and fell to the ground on the spot.

Then she silently cried.

The sounds of the owls and the wings of the insects suddenly stopped which is most probably caused by Gawain’s growl. In the silent night, the
only sound that could be heard was Lukka who was crying.

''-Crack!''

Ash stepped on a dried branch. ''Damn''- he regretted just as he found out about this. The sound was tremendously clear in the middle of the
night.

“…?”

Lukka while wiping of her tears, turned back and looked at Ash’s direction. It seems that there is no longer a point for him to be hiding.
After Ash made up his mind, he walked towards Lukka.

“You are… From the student council?”

It seems that she didn’t remember Ash’s name. But since she also didn’t remember Silvia’s name, so this was expected. Ash stated his name
while smiling.

“I’m ash.”

“…Why are you here?”

“Sorry. I accidentally saw you running into the woods…”

After Ash explained, he looked at Gawain.

Gawain had frightened Lukka just now. That was a total rejection.

Lukka treated Gawain as her family which is undoubtedly the right thing to do… But Ash still didn’t understand why Gawain was not bothered by
it. The image of Lukka sobbing remains in Ash's mind…

In a few moments, it had turned into determination.

Ash as if he wanted to protect Lukka stood in front of Gawain.

“Say, Lukka. The previous experiment… Can I have it continued right now?”

Lukka gasped.

“This… had nothing to do with you.”

“No, of course it has something to do with me.”

Ash took a step closer to Gawain.

“This fellow had made you cry. This reason alone should be enough for me to interfere.”

===Part 2===
Anya was looking at Ash sudden challenge with Gawain from afar.

“That guy… What is he trying to do?”

Anya followed her plan which was working at the training campsite at the Allonnes Lakeside representing the student restaurant ‘La Tene’. The
work to prepare the food was more troublesome than she thought. It was already midnight when her job was done.

On her way back to her room for a rest from the kitchen, she accidentally saw Ash.

Anya was interested in Ash who sneaked into the Norg Forest.

After all, the reason why Anya worked hard to infiltrate ‘La Tene’ was to investigate Ash Blake. She thought that she had a better chance to come into contact with Ash in the restricted area of the training camp compare to the wide area of the school grounds.

For Ash to act in the middle of the forest was out of Anya’s expectation. He even challenged Gawain.

As for the matters concerning Gawain, Anya also heard something regarding it. It was said that it was resting in Norg forest because it was not feeling well.

Anya couldn’t figure out the reason to bring a sick maestro here. The rest of the staff in charge of the foods also didn’t receive any information regarding it- There was probably no reasons for the basic staffs to know about it.

Ash was protecting a girl at his back. To her surprise, she was an Eckbald. ''Her name should be Lukka Saarinen…'' Anya secretly thought. She had memorized all the names of the student who attended the training camp before hand.

Form their conversations that she could not hear clearly, it seems that Lukka’s and Gawain’s relationship right now was bad. So Ash wanted to
help her to solve this problem- This should be the whole picture for the incident.

Ash is probably thinking about riding on Gawain just like how he defeated the Necromanica.

“What is this about… Trying to play the hero in front of a cute girl.”

Anya wonders why would she suddenly get mad for.

===Part 3===
The sharp claws tore the moonlight mercilessly.

Ash immediately jumped aside from the strong front paw. He will die in a horribly way if he face it directly.

“Stop…!”

Lukka shouted at the top of her voice but Gawain had no intention of stopping.

After its front paw missed, Gawain’s weakness was exposed. Ash uses that opportunity to step on a tree branch to climb up a nearby tree. After
he reached a thick branch, he looked downwards.

Gawain’s entire back was in his view.

“Uoooooo!”

Ash decided to jump down from the branch.

Gawain was not in his riding gear, but this is just what Ash wanted. When he had decided to ride on a dragon, the riding gear would only be in
his way. Actually, Ash had heard before in class that ‘All the great riders hated the riding gear’.

“You are now under my control!”

Ash successfully landed on Gawain’s back. Ash was riding on Gawain’s naked back like how as horse riding tribe riding on a horse without a
saddle. His hands were holding on tightly on its neck. He swore not to let go of it even when Gawain tried to shake he off with its might.

“Grrrr…”

The swing that Ash experience nearly made him faint. He kept on telling himself never to let go.

Ash tried to tame Gawain with all his might and tried to persuade it to accept Lukka again.

But suddenly, Gawain gave an earth shattering roar.

“What’s happening…?”

Ash felt fear. But, unless Ash let loose of his grip, Gawain had no chance of winning. As long as Ash remains on its back, Gawain can’t use
its breath attack, magic, teeth and claws.

If it is so, then what is the uneasiness he was felling.

Even when Ash had a total advantage of attacking from the back, but he felt uneasy deep inside as if- He was the one whose back was exposed to a shinigami. <ref>God of death.</ref>

At that moment, there was a wave of magic that feels that it exploded out from Gawain’s body.

“Uwaaa…!”

Ash was thrown into the air by an invincible wall.

His sight was spinning.

The bright moonlight came into his view for a moment.

Gawain’s tail, like a whip, swung at Ash. Ash who was at midair had nowhere to run to.

''“*Cough*…!”''

It was a direct hit on Ash.

An unimaginable strong impact swept pass from his chest to his abdomen and he flew parallel with the ground. It was until he hit a tree, only
then he fall to the ground slowly.

''“*Coug*…*Cough*…!”''

Ash coughed and he even coughed out blood. He probably had inner injuries. He was making some weird noise from his throat, which was probably
caused by a broken bone that punctured his lungs.

To make it worst, the blood from his head flowed in to his left eye and blinded half of his view.

His body totally ignored his orders. Ash felt a cold chill. He didn’t know how serious his injuries were. The thing that frightened his most
is he can’t even feel a single pain after such serious injuries. As if this body is not his.

''Will my life end like this…?'' Ash had lost hope.

Eco face suddenly emerged in his mind.

''An angry face. An angry face. An angry face… No matter what, it is always an angry face. Even so, I hope that she smile to me more, a pure,
cheerful smile.''

''-Stop! What am I thinking about? Isn’t this… No different from dying. How could eco smile at me…''

With his back on the tree, Ash mustered all his remaining strength and glared at Gawain.

“Grrrr….”

Gawain was threatening Ash.

There was a thin layer of magic on its body. Ash had only found out that the thin layer of magic was the culprit that sent him flying.

“Reflecting type… defense magic!”

This is a high level magic that could only be activated by a maestro.

The effect of this magic was not to neutralize an attack but to reflect it. Even though Ash was only clinging on to Gawain, but it probably
take Ash presence as an ‘attack’. Could this had anything to do with his ability ‘to ride on any dragons’?

“Just what kind of rascal is it…”

Under those conditions, Gawain could even use its defense magic to eliminate Ash. If it was another dragon, Ash will be on their back and have
them tamed.

He already reached his limit.

Just before his loses consciousness, he felt that he heard Lukka calling after him.

===Part 4===
“This couldn’t be true…”

Anya watched the whole breath taking event. An empty handed human versus a dragon- that was clearly a stupid move but Anya still think that
there is hope deep inside her heart. Since Ash is the famous ‘Silver Knight’.

But the result is clear in a blink of an eye.

“Just what kind of rascal is it…”

Ash who was hit by the dragon’s tail pitifully, even though he still remained conscious after he landed, after this words, he remained
motionless.

Maybe he was dead. Ash, under the moonlights could only be described with pitiful.

Not only that his head was bleeding nonstop, he even threw out blood. The seriousness on his inner injuries is even hard to be determined.

Then, Lukka made a sad voice.

“Nooooo!”

Lukka who was pale in the face rushed to Ash. But Ash injuries were pretty much lethal and she panicked and didn’t even know what to do.

At this moment, Anya was thinking about two things.

''-If she left him as he is, he will die sooner or later. Serve him right for showing of and ruining Milgauss-sams’s plan, this is his divine'' ''punishment.''

''-But I still owe him. If is don’t save him… won’t I lose my honour as a Tantalos? The fellow had saved me once without thinking about the'' ''consequences…''

“Damn!”

She was lost for just a moment. Ash life could not be guaranteed if it was left in the hand of the unreliable girl.

If she was to be unlucky, there will be questions about why would a staff in charge of the foods was at the Norg Forest. Well, that will be a
problem in the future but she just needs to make an excuse to cover up.

Anya rushed out from the trees and pushed Lukka aside.

Because she saw Lukka who was in a trauma tried to carry Ash’s upper body. She didn’t know that simply moving the body of an injured person
will put their life in danger.

“What were you doing! I’ll take care of the emergency treatment, go and look for help!”

“Y-Yes.”

Even though Lukka was still troubled, she still knew the seriousness of the current situation and there was not a single moment to be wasted.
She turned around and ran as if she was trying to blend into the darkness of the forest.

===Part 5===
“…”

When he regained consciousness, he was in a strange place.

The floors had black and white tiles that were made laid like a checker’s board. There were many semi-completed objects hanging randomly on
the walls. Human’s body, beasts, armours, building and many more. On the ceiling was a grand palace-liked Chandelier which was a bright dragon
crystal light.

There was an antique bed in the middle of the room and Ash was resting at there.

“I remember that…”

''I lost to Gawain and was seriously injured. Even though he still remembered the incident, there were just only fragments of memories.'' ''Even when he was seriously injured, he still didn’t felt any pain or even a wound on his body.'' ''His uniform which was originally covered in blood had become clean. This was weird.''

“Are you awake?”

“Uwaa!”

After someone breathed in his ear, Ash immediately sat up in fear. A girl was sting next to him beside the bed without him knowing.

“It has been some time since we saw each other face to face!”

The girl was beautiful. Her dress clearly highlighted her curves. Even when she had two horns on her head, they were still not very
noticeable. Her hair was like Eco’s shiny pink coloured hair.

“Are you… Navi?”

Ash had met her about a week before eco was born. No… ‘Met’ was not the right word to describe this situation, because he saw Navi in his
dreams.

The Navi in his dreams had explored his body all over. Just by thinking about it, Ash blushed.

“Tee Hee…”

After Navi gave a devilish smile, she leaned forward. Ash could smell something nice, but when he found out that he was on a bed, he started
to feel unease.

“Wait!”

Ash averted his eyes from Navi’s huge breast and shouted.

“Navi, if you are here, then… I should be dreaming, right? No, there is no other explanation. Because I who was seriously injured don’t even
have a scratch on me right now!”

“You are not dreaming.”

“I-If I’m not dreaming… then I’m in ‘that world’?

Navi laughed because she probably thinks that Ash’s panicking looks is funny.

“This is just the Dragon Workshop! The place where dragons did their creations. I’m the one responsible for summoning you here.”

“Even though I still don’t really understand the current situation… At least I’m alive, no?”

“As long as your true body is safe.”

“What do you mean?”

“The you now, is nothing but a spirit.”

“Is that true…”

Ash lowered down his head and look at his own body.

“That’s right. Your spirit had now left your body. If your body in the material world stops functioning, then you have nowhere to go.”

“Y-You must be kidding! Let me return to my original state immediately!”

“Worry not. There is a reason for me to personally bring you here. This child has something that it wants to tell you.”

Just like agreeing with Navi-

“Kyuu.”

A small animal popped out from her shoulder. Even though it had the size of a rat, it is still a dragon after taking a closer look.

“That dragon is?”

“It is Gawain. Although it is a maestro, it is still not yet mentally matured. Its looks is like this in here.”

“T-This little guy is really Gawain…?”

Ash kept on examination the small animal in front of him. After being told by Navi, this dragon indeed has some similarity with Gawain.

“Fufu… If we were to fight right now, isn’t it a sure win for me?”

“Kyun!”

Gawain gave out a frightened voice and hid behind Navi.

“…Tsk. Pretending to be the nice guy. So, what do you want to tell me? Before that, let’s say that I was nearly killed by you.”

After Ash asked, Gawain made a soft sound while standing on Navi’s shoulder. It seems that it was trying to ask Navi to become the translator.

After Gawain finished speaking, Navi looked at Ash.

“Gawain said that its master was Lukka and Lukka alone. The reason why it reject you was because it doesn’t want anyone apart from Lukka to
ride on its back. Even when you were the ‘The Boy Who Can Ride Any Dragon’.”

“What are you talking about! You were obviously rejecting Lukka this whole time…”

“Kyuun!”

After Gawain made the angry sound, it told its reason for rejecting Lukka to Navi.

“…I see. Gawain was worried about Lukka and thus rejected her. According to Gawain, Lukka had fallen from its back about three months ago.”

“Huh…? I have never heard of this.”

Ash felt that he was being hit on the head. Three months ago was the time when Gawain started to reject Lukka.

“The Eckbald are highly self regarded race, they think that falling from the dragon was a disgrace. That’s why Lukka had never told anyone
about this.”

Although Ash doesn’t really know how she was felling, if it is an Eckbald culture, then he could only accept it.

“Then, under what circumstances was she falling from?”

“Have you ever heard of the Dragon Riding Dance that was passed down by the Eckbald leaders?”

“No. This is my first time hearing about it.”

“Just like what the words said, it was dancing on the dragon while riding. Although Lukka kept silent about this, she was destined to become
the leader. So she must start to practice young. No to mention, if the Dragon Riding Dance was a success, there will be an activation of
various types of magic!”

“So you are saying that in the middle of the Dragon Riding Dance’s practice… She fell?’

“That’s right. Since she fell from Gawain, she was traumatized by Gawain. She stood far away from Gawain. Although she was lucky that she only
had light injuries, she was now under the shadows of those memories…”

“Traumatized? I can’t even see that happening.”

“I think that she herself don’t even know how much fear that was in her heart right now.”

Ash unintentionally said some important thing.

“Then… Lukka stood quite far away from Gawain in the Norg forest. She doesn’t even try to pat it. Even at the seventh dragon house in the
academy, she also maintained her distance.”

''So the unnatural distance was caused by Lukka’s trauma…!''

“If she tried to ride a dragon with those feelings, she will face serious injuries one day. If a Dragner was afraid of his pal, his future
will be terrible and at worst he will die. It is because of Gawain was worried about Lukka, so it remained stern to not letting Lukka ride on
it.”

“I see. So, Gawain, I can see that you are kind! But, why was your Astral cut off?”

“After the magic of wise dragon Albion was activated, the dragons were under special restrictions. One of them was- The more you go against a
master’s orders, the less astral you will receive. If this situation kept on, Gawain will die soon. Even when the Norg Forest supplied some
Astral… but it is still hard to say that whether it can survive for more than five more days.”

“-!”

Ash held his breath.

''Only a mere five days.'' Ash had never thought that the situation was this critical.

“Gawain…would you rather sacrifice your life to protect Lukka?”

Ash spoke to Gawain seriously, but it was with its haughty look

Ash who replied with a wry smile suddenly felt something was off.

“…Huh?”

Ash quickly looked at his own body. His skin became transparent and he felt an irresistible force pulling his body.

The truth is, Ash legs were slowly lifted from the ground.

If this continues, then he will be floating in a few moments.

“Hey, hey… what is…?

“It seems that you are leaving.”

Navi calmly told the good news.

“Huh!”

Without knowing whether she was enjoying Ash’s changes in expressions, Navi smiled.

“Even though I said that you are leaving, but it was different from what you were thinking. Your healing body was summoning your spirit. This
is the law of nature.”

Ash was relieved after hearing Navi’s explanation.

“So, I’m safe?’

“That’s it.”

Navi stood up from beside the bed and walk towards Ash. There were some redness on her face. Were those illusions?

“I’ll be waiting for your growth- ‘Knight of Avalon’.”

“Avalon? What does it mean?”

Navi gave a simple tap on his face as an answer. Although he was still at his spiritual state, he could still clearly feel the softness of a
girl’s palm.

“Fufu. You must learn to ride on me as soon as possible!”

“But my pal is Eco…”

“Eco and I were two surfaces on a coin. If you ride on her, it meant that you are also riding on me.”

“What does that mean-?”
[[Image:SnRK V03 181.jpg|thumb]]

Ash was not allowed to further ask any more questions. It was because that Navi was kissing him passionately.

“Mguk...!”

Navi’s watery lips had warped up Ash’s lower lips. Before he could react, his upper lips were also suvked in by Navi. Both of their saliva had
mixed together. When their moths were wet, Navi forces her tongue into Ash’s mouth.

“....Nn!”

Their slippery tongues were curled together.

...Until he was separated from Navi, Ash thought was in a mess. After this intense experience, Ash only knew that there exists such a kiss.

Navi was with her rarely seen blushing looks and crimson red watery iris.

“I hoped that you can have such a kiss with Eco one day in the future.”

“W-What are you talking about!”

“Fufu, let’s us meet at another day.”

At the same time when Navi was speaking with her watery lips, Ash was no longer able to resist the strong force and was swallowed by the
darkness.

===Part 6===
“I’m at…?”

Ash had also woken up in a strange room this time. The only thing is, this place doesn’t have the supernatural feel of the Dragon Workshop.

The smell of the antiseptic, white curtains and the medicine shelves. From the semi-drawn back curtains, Allonnes lakeside could be seen with
thick white mist.

This should be the infirmary for the training camp.

Ash suddenly felt that he was touching something weird.

“...What’s this?”

Ash curiously moved his right hand that was under the blanket. It felt slippery and soft and there is a hint of heat from it. It obviously felt like a living thing.

“Eeeehhhhhh!”

Ash was shocked and jumped on the spot. Although he body hurts, this is not the time to worry about that.

The moment he flipped over the blanket, he saw something unbelievable. Even after he immediately cover it back with the blanket, but the image
he saw had been deeply carved into his mind.

“Why…is Lukka here?”

Ash was sweating a huge amount of sweat.

That’s right, the thing under the blanket was no other that Lukka.

And, she was naked.

Because she slept in a way like a baby cuddling up, that’s why at least her important parts were not seen… But the stimulation to his heart
was still intense.

At the same time, Ash also found out that his clothes were removed totally. Although there were bandages on his chest, but there isn’t a
single piece of cloth left.

It is probably that the cloths will interfere with his treatment. So the reason why he was naked can still be explained. But, why would Lukka
was sleeping on the same bed as him naked?”

Ash looked all over the infirmary again. From the looks of the sky, it should be in the morning right now. Not a sound could be heard from the
lakeside.

The surrounding of the bed was placed with silver flasks that looked like lamp stands.

“This is…?”

There were water coloured crystals on top of each of the flasks. Ash found out that they are those expensive Bright Dragon Crystals with
healing effect.

It was said that the training given in the training camp was strict and thus the amount of injured students were high. These should be the
medical supplies prepared by the academy.

“I see… Thanks to the healing magic, I can continue to live on.”

Ash nodded after being dawned on. His chest suddenly hurts.

“It hurts!’

Even when they have the healing magic, it seems that he won’t be able to fully recover in a short time. Ash unintentionally placed his hand on
his head and found out that he also had bandages on his head too.

From his injuries, his will be treated as a patient of some time.

Just when Ash sighed, Lukka unwittingly made a small noise.

“Nn...”

Her pointy ears tingled.

“Fuuwa!”

After a few moments, Lukka with a sleepy face slowly sat up. She generously showed her flat chest to Ash and daze at him with her sleepy eyes…
Until the moment when she vision was focused, she suddenly hugged Ash.

“Luckily… you were all right…!”

“Uwaaa!”

Ash was thrown into panicked after being hugged by a lovely Yōsei girl. To make it worse, they were on the bed… Naked.

“It huuuurts!”

The moment Lukka hugged him tightly his entire chest hurts. Now is not to time for him to blush in the presence of a body of a naked Yōsei.

“S-Sorry...”

She let go of Ash gloomily.

“I-It’s alright… Because I’m already healed. B-But could you please put on some clothes? Back to the topic… Why were you sleeping on the same
bed with me?”

Ash averted his eyes away from the white tender naked body and simply came out with a question.

“…”

Lukka picked up her one-piece pajama from the floor. Ash made use of this time to cover his own naked body with the blanket.

Lukka who had put on her pajama was sitting on a chair beside the bed and only then she answered Ash question.

“It was because that your body’s temperature was dropping… So I’m trying to warm you up.

“I-Is it so. Thank you very much.”

After thanking, Ash remembered the incident that happened in the Dragon Workshop.

“That’s right…! It may be hard to believe, but… I was at the Dragon Workshop!”

“Dragon Workshop?”

Lukka was surprised.

“That’s it. The workshop where the dragons did their creations. I had a conversation there with Gawain.”

“Huh…?”

Ash tried to explain to Lukka who was stunned.

===Part 7===
After Ash told her the truth, Lukka was in tears.

“Why…Gawain… Because of me… Just because to protect me… It rather sacrifice its life...”

When he saw Lukka’s shaking shoulders when she was crying, Ash found out about something.

He had thought her as a girl without emotions. But that is not the truth, she is just only someone who can’t express her emotions well. For
she to be crying for Gawain is the only proof needed.

Thinking back carefully, it was the same during that time.

In the forest during the full moon, Lukka also cried. Ash choose to challenge Gawain was also because of sympathizing her-

“That’s right. Gawain didn’t allow you to ride on its back because it was worry about you. If the rider was to be afraid of its pal, then his
life will be threatened…”

“It’s… All because of me…”

“Summon out your courage!”

Although he knew that this is a little cruel to her, he still shouted it. Because Navi had already notified him in the Dragon Workshop that
Gawain’s life has…

“Please calm down and hear me out. Gawain had only a few more days to live… according to the information that I had received from the Dragon
Workshop, it can only live for a mere five more days.”

Upon hearing, Lukka’s was shaken.

“Before that… How many days had I been sleeping?”

After Ash had asked, Lukka answered by mumbling with her face looking pale.

“Today is… The sixth day.”

“Huh?”

Ash was taken aback. This means that he had lost consciousness since the first night of the training camp until just now.

Although the training camp last for seven days, in reality, there is nothing wrong about taking the sixth day as the last. Because the seven
day would only be returning to Ansarivan- just like that.

Also, the main event of the sixth day of the training camp would be cleaning the campsite and the closing ceremony would be held in the
evening.

In another words, the Selective Training Camp is as good as ended.

But Ash didn’t think that he had wasted his time here. The truth won’t be revealed if he had not challenged Gawain.

The thing is, they must make sure of Gawain’s safety. If Navi prediction was correct, Gawain will die any moment.

“Lukka! Look for Gawain immediately!”

“But… I can’t leave you.”

“I’m already alright. Right now, you must only think about Gawain!”

“…Understood.”

Lukka rubbed off her tears and lifted her head.

Her gaze which was full of determination moved his heart.

After Ash had nodded to her, Lukka rushed out from the infirmary.

Navi had made a ‘five days’ death declaration.

But Ash had slept for five days…

Just when Ash was worried and held his fist up without being interfered by the pain-

“Ash!”

Zatoichi: Spelling

== User Info ==
Greetings! Welcome to my page.
 I was named after the old japanese movie star [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zatoichi|Zatoichi], a wonderful movie series.
 My purpose here is to read the latest contributions to the smaller projects, and to fix spelling errors after long consideration.
 I do have a basic grasp of english<ref>Completed IB junior literature class</ref> and am mostly here to read other's contributions to this amazing site.
 I do have a love of reading, but if I make any mistake, be sure to contact me.
 I also do know a little HTML, which is "similar" to the structure of the editor...
 Those looking for ebooks should go to [http://ln.m-chan.org/v3/index.php here]<ref>I believe that this is a official site, don't trust me on that one </ref>.
