"B, stupid, hey ...... Fenrir, in one blow, you mean ......?　No, no, no--!

　The man looked at Fenrir, who had turned into a silent corpse, stunned for a few moments, but then acted quickly.
　He threw the sword in his hand towards you and immediately chose to flee.

　The sword was aimed precisely at the still-illuminated Noel, but it was easily defeated by Allen's light strike.
　But when I returned my gaze to the man, his figure had vanished into the darkness of night.

That ...... man, that ......!
Yeah, that's a good call. Once you realize you can't win, you disappear and run away as fast as you can. It's the basics, but you've been acting so relaxed. I think it's fair to say that it's a nice transition from there.
I mean, Allen, you can see that guy ......!　Then go to ......!
Well, I can catch up if I want to, but I've got other things to do first. Like the healing of Noel and all that.

　Just because a wound is not life-threatening does not mean it is not treatable.
　But the reason why I didn't treat the wound is because I couldn't afford it.
　Although I had appeared to be able to afford it, in reality, I couldn't afford it.

　And now, there is nothing more important than to treat Noel.

...... I'm fine. It's true that earlier in the day I thought I might die like this, but when I cooled down I could understand my situation. Yes, you need help, but I'm not the first priority, am I?　Better yet, get those girls to ......!
"No, so you'll be fine. It's not a bluff.

　But that's not to say that we don't have anything to worry about, of course.
　It's certainly another thing to do, but right now I just want to focus on Noel.

Even though it hasn't been that long since we met, I already consider Noel a friend. You can't leave your friend here alone. Besides, Leeds will probably be mad at me if they find out I did that .......
It's ......

　I guess you could imagine the scene very clearly.
　When Noel couldn't say more, he shrugged his shoulders, unable to say any more words.

I know you're worried about it, but do you want me to be the one to get it fixed?　And it will result in a faster journey.
...... Okay, I get it. But what about the cure?　You don't have a potion or anything, do you?
"Hmm?　It doesn't have to be that way, though?

　--The Power of Reason, Parallel Paradox: Magic and Healing Light.

...... which is ......?

　Noel watched with wide eyes as the pale light enveloped his body.
　However, he noticed right away that his wounds were healing, perhaps because he was used to being treated by Leeds - and he was getting used to it.

...... I've always known that you're pretty much bullshit,
"Well, ...... is a guy who can do a lot of things on the fly?　That's about as far as I'll go.
"How dare you say such a thing ......

　I shrugged again at Noel, who gave me a dumbfounded look, and continued the healing.
　I'm sure it won't take long for them to finish their treatment and head straight to their place.

　But even though I knew it was okay, I was still curious. ...... Suddenly, I looked at Noel.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world, and I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.

　I'm not sure if Noel has noticed that, but a wry smile appears on his face.

"If you're worried about me, you can just leave me alone, okay?

　Allen smiled and shrugged his shoulders three times at those words.










　They easily arrived at their destination.

　It's not so surprising, though.
　The place was already checked by that man, and more importantly, it's night now.
　And if you have this power, there's no reason you can't arrive.

　Anyway, the girl who came to the front of the inn goes onward without feeling any emotion.
　Although the door of the inn is naturally closed because of the night, the girl does not seem to care about it.
　You'll be able to get a good deal more information about the company's products and services at ・・・・・・・.

　It's a very good idea to be able to have a good idea of what's going on around you.
　But the fact that it is in the dark is counterintuitive.
　It seemed to me that under the circumstances, it wouldn't be a problem to deactivate this power once.

　--Copycat: Clairvoyance.

　It wasn't originally intended to be used for night vision, but as long as it resulted in a better understanding of your surroundings, it was no problem.
　When he found a staircase, he went to it and deactivated his power there.

　--Copycat: Invisible.

　Then he disappeared again (・・・・・・・・) and started walking upwards.

　--The girl suddenly wondered why she was doing this.
　But as soon as she thought it, the thought sank in.
　There's no point in thinking about it.

　The girl is now that man's property, no more, no less.
　And if you don't want to die, you have no choice but to listen to what the man says.

　You can use this power to escape, but I don't think the man isn't expecting you to do so.
　It was easy to imagine that he would die if he did.

　What would he do if he escaped in the first place?
　There is nowhere for a girl to return to if she ran.
　It's gone.
　Your home was destroyed by those guys (・・・・).



　It's just a coincidence that the girl survived.
　She was spotted because she had a rare gift.

　And because she didn't want to die, she became that man's property.
　Surely a girl's life was already decided when she laid her head on the man who killed her friends and family.

　And it's too late.
　If she was going to run away, she should have gotten away earlier.
　There were plenty of chances to do so.

　But in the end, you couldn't choose that path by yourself, and you put everything down to the word "nothing".
　I knew that this would not change anything, but I was tired of doing something with my own will.
　It was too late to ask why now.

　So, even though I knew it was wrong, I took the last step.
　The top floor.
　Stamping firmly on the floor, I remember what the man said to me.

"...... cut the girl's head off (・・・・) and bring back her head (...)" (・・・・・)

　I didn't know what that meant, but the girl would just do what she was told.
　I muttered to myself that it didn't matter, and then walked out wondering where the girl was - I suddenly realized that I could see (・・・・・) my feet (・・・・・).

...... huh?

　It was improbable.
　Now that I'm alone, I'm maximizing the strength of my power.
　Because of what happened to that boy, even I should be able to't see myself to prevent anything from happening to me.

　So why--

"--What?

　The questions and confusion that arose caused the body to go completely rigid - for a moment, it felt like the wind had blown.
　Immediately afterwards, the strength left his legs and he fell to the ground.

　You realize that you have been cut just before your head touches the ground.
　And that's when you finally realize a girl is standing out of the corner of your eye.
　It's probably the girl I was going for.

　It was too dim to tell what kind of face and expression she had on her face, but ...... still, all I could tell was that there was a strong light in her eyes.
　You will be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
　You will be able to get the most out of it.

　If you close your eyes like this, there is a good chance that you will never wake up again.
　But knowing this, the girl took it all in stride and closed her eyes and her consciousness.








　Beatrice let out a sigh as she watched the slashed and prostrated girl.
　She had heard from Allen that this girl might come, but she had hoped it would come off.
　But the reality is that this is what it is, and this is the story of how to keep from letting out a sigh.

　It's nice to say that I was a knothole.
　No, it's not good, and I should be sorry, but that's not the point now.

　It is true that Beatrice, being a knight, has cut many things in the past.
　Not only demons, but also people.
　But to slay a girl the same age as our Lord was indeed a very thoughtful thing to do.

　And one more thing.

...... Master Rees, why did you come out of your room?　We were told that we should take refuge elsewhere, or at least in Mr. Allen's room, in case we had to take refuge, but not only did you shove it, you came out of the room as well: ......
...... I can't be the only one in a safe place with Allen and Beatrice working so hard.

　I'm sure he meant what he said.
　As a matter of fact, Leeds came to this city in the first place as bait (...).

　Allen may be aware of something, but there's something about the general that he hasn't told you yet.
　And the real reason why Leeds and the others came to town.

　I'm not lying to you, but ...... is a bit complicated and I can't talk about it.
　If there is a time to talk, it will be when there is information about his person.
　It's painful, but it's inevitable.

　Anyway, and that's why Leeds remained here.
　Perhaps he couldn't stand the thought of what information he might get from her.

　Normally, Beatrice should have admonished him for that.
　But he couldn't do that because it was not only the Lord's body that Beatrice had to protect, but her mind as well.
　And for that reason, he decided it was inevitable.

　In front of the prostrate girl, Beatrice lets out another sigh.
　While bending down to restrain her body, she watches the Lord come toward her to heal the girl's wounds.

　You'll be able to see the strong will in her eyes, and wonder what to do.
