"Aria, ......?

　Iris could not hide her surprise at the sight of her best friend in front of her.
　In a moment of panic, the threads entwined around her limbs and body, restricting her movements.

"Aah!
You can't move. If you don't move, the thread can easily sever your body.

　Aria says this matter-of-factly.
　The thread that restrains Iris was stretched out from the black hole that was created around her - a magic that Aria specializes in.
　You will find a lot of things that you can do to make your life easier.

Why ......?

　Iris asks Aria. But Aria does not respond to Iris's words.
　Aria's eyes are as cold as they were when they first met, and she doesn't seem to be looking at Iris.
　Her best friend, who was supposed to have disappeared, was right in front of her, attacking Iris and Mercier - Iris knew what she had to do, even in the midst of a situation where she couldn't organize everything.

(I have to meet up with the teachers ...... to do that ......)
"......!

　There is no hesitation in Iris's movements.
　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.
　It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your vacation.

"......

　Aria, too, did not show any sign of being upset. But even though she should be able to move right now, Aria showed no signs of moving.
　--The movement was on the other side.

The only movement was on the other side. "-Madam Iris, take it easy.
"...... What?

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything you like.

I'm not sure what to do.
I'm not sure what to make of that.

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.
　You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　He took out a dagger from his pocket, and the fight between Mercier and the assassin began.

I'll leave you to it, Iris.
...... Sorry, thank you.

　I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's a little nervous about this.
　Iris faced Aria once again.

There's a lot I want to ask you, but for that, Aria. I think I need to fight you.
"Okay, come here.

　Aria replies, moving lightly to get away from Iris.
　Iris moved to follow her.
　After a short distance, the two stopped moving.
　Aria holds up two daggers, and Iris, clad in lightning, calls her own sword to hand.
　Although they had cut each other with mock swords before, they had never put their own power to the test.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

...... You're serious, aren't you?
I'm sure Iris is too.
Hey, why are you here at ......? I've been worried ...... about you for a long time, and now you're trying to ...... kill us?
It has nothing to do with ...... Iris.
It doesn't matter!　We are--

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.
　The dagger and sword clashed, and their gazes crossed.

I'm not going to talk to Iris right now.
"......!

　You can't persuade her to do anything.
　You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
　When Aria noticed this, she quickly distanced herself from Iris.
　A "black hole" appeared around her. By throwing her projectiles into it, Aria could attack from any direction. ...... This is exactly the kind of magic that an assassin would use.

(Don't hesitate now. ...... I have to stop Aria.)

　Iris gripped the hilt of her sword tightly and took a stance.
　(Don't hesitate now. I have to stop Aria.) Iris grips the hilt of her sword tightly and takes a stance.
