『I pray that one day you will reach《Absolute Duo》.』
Prologue[edit]
«Absolute Duo»——.
I didn't have the time to inquire as to the meaning of those words.
"——Ku!!"
The mark called «Aster» appeared on my chest and emitted a strong heat.
The heat spread throughout my entire body instantly, making it hard for me to breathe.
This hellish fire was tearing me apart.
However, this was a ritual.
A power that surpasses mankind——the process of sublimating by taking «Lucifer» into your body.
"Ugh...ah...aaaaaaaaaagggh!"
I shouted in agony, expressing the feeling of having my blood, flesh and bone burned.
Shortly after, my body was surrounded by «Flame».
The hellish fire, which was overflowing from the «Aster», went wild, as if it was trying to burn me, the very person who had released it, to ashes.
But I could not give in.
That's because I would not be able to obtain what I desire unless I overcome this «Flame».
(I... I have a wish I must fulfill!)
That's right. I can't stop until I reach my goal.
For this reason, I must control the «Flame» that burns wildly.
No, I should be able to control this.
That's because this «Flame»——is my «Soul».
"Ooooooooooooooooh!!"
I shouted with all my strength. I then raised my fist up and grabbed my «Flame».
"«Blaze»!"
Responding to the «word that carried strength», the «Flame» encompassed my entire body, burning wildly as if it was trying to incinerate me, then swirled around my arm like a snake, diffusing a bright light.
"Ku...!"
Because it was so bright, I wasn't able to keep my eyes open and——
Eventually the light disappeared. I moved my gaze to my arm, and was shocked by what I saw.
My «Flame» has turned into a «Shield».
"This... is my «Blaze»...?"
"«Irregular». That's how I would put it."
The person who had been watching over me silently finally spoke.
Devilish, or ominous.
These words came to my mind as I looked at the little girl in a gothic dress.
«Irregular»——there was only one reason for this girl to say that.
Normally, a «Blaze» which was used to define the «Soul» would have been shaped into a weapon.
However, the thing which materialized on my arm, without a doubt, assumed the shape of a shield.
The mass of metal was thick, heavy and hard, giving me the impression that it could definitely not be cracked or pierced.
(How ironic...)
For a person like me who was not able to protect, giving birth to a «Shield», a symbol of protection...
Despite my memories of the past I could not return to——
The girl in the black dress brought an end to my reminiscence.
"Now, go. The path that «Shield» will lead you to... I'm really looking forward to it."
Leaving with her laugh, the girl in the black dress disappeared into the darkness.
The only thing left was silence.
This was the beginning of my story——the story of Tooru Kokonoe.
