It's under a sky of dark clouds, but the great garden is brightly lit by the city's burning flame.
　And the two guardians (guardians) and two challengers facing each other.

　Seeing me and Ryner coming forward, Lord seemed to be sincerely curious.

''...... Are you sure you won't run away with this power differential?''
'I want to run. Rationally, I think running away is the right thing to do here. But I've stopped making excuses because it's 'rational' or 'right'. From now on I will continue to fight for as long as I have any hope.

　The fact that I answered without hesitation shows my determination.
　Lord's laughter grows louder.

''Haha, hahahaha!　Then we can talk about it. -- 'I do not choose the path I walk'. 'I am the wind,' 'I will walk the whole world,' and I remember wishing that!

　The chanting of the basics, which was taught in magic class a while ago, is performed.
　The next thing to be released after that is also the basic magic within the basics.

''-- Wind Magic [WIND]. Then (...), it's an overwhelming victory for the concubines (・・・・・・・・).

　But that wind magic doesn't fit within the scope of the foundation.
　Lord's foundation magic can even change the weather in an instant.
　It may be a bit of prep magic for her, but a strong wind begins to blow as powerful and widespread as the higher level magic, Zeerwind. It was as if she was going outdoors on a typhoon day.

　While scrambling through that strong wind to get closer to the Lord, I give my companions one last instruction.

"Rainer, we'll finish this right now. Until then, hold on.

　The rear liner nodded silently. His attention was now only on Nosphy. He fixed his eyes on Nosphy and didn't even give us a glance.

　Nosphy, who was left staring at me, weaved a magic with a slightly uncomfortable look and finished his preliminary preparations.

''-- Light Magic 《Light》. Lord, Uzuraha-sama and the others apparently want to divide us.
"Let's play along, Nosfi. Rather than improvise a resonant spell, you'd be better off destroying each one of them.

　He is convinced that they are superior in terms of ground strength. Uncertainty should be eliminated, Lord suggests. --as expected.

It's not just a matter of time before you can get your hands on it. I'm sure you're right, as long as you're outperforming them on the ground ......, but let's trust the words of our "friend". I'll leave Uzuraha-sama to you.

　Nosfi's face twisted a little, but he eventually accepted it.

'Leave it to me. This mistress cannot be defeated.
'Yes, of course. Lord is stronger than anyone else, you know. We'll finish it quickly so that we won't lose to you as well. We'll catch Reiner unharmed and give him to you as a present for this anniversary called today.
I'm counting on you.

　The interests of the four of us were aligned.
　Thus, I proceeded into the 'north' wind and Ryner into the 'south' light.

''Uzurinami-sama at ....... I am playing with Ryner, so please wait a moment. I'll finish up soon and head over.

　Blithely, Nosfi said his goodbyes, but I silenced them.
　From here on out, I can't waste even the slightest amount of magic power. I left all of Nosfi's everything to Ryner and let 《Dimension》 focus only on the Lord.

　Then Lord and I move so that the two battlefields are far apart. We leave the garden of the Vols' house and exit to an unpopular road.

　Facing each other, Lord and I have our last conversation before the battle.

"I'll tell you something, Lord. I'm going to look back at the past with you, when you said it didn't matter to you. I don't care how much you scream, I won't stop. Don't ever cover your ears.

　He speaks forcefully with a slightly preachy manner.
　Without a doubt, Lord hates preaching. But I dare to go and make her angry.
　It's a good idea to have a good time with them. In order to catch the 'one who steals the reason for the wind', which is probably the fastest guardian (guardian), there is a chance that I won't even be able to touch it without using my mother-in-law's hands. Also, there's simply the fact that you can't afford to have a Lord with flight ability calmly aim for a long-term battle.

'Looking back on the 'past', says ......?　Is there a vortex wave trying to escape from 'here' ......?
'I apologize for trying to run away, I'm sorry ....... But I've decided not to run away anymore. So don't you run away anymore either .......
'What are you talking about? ......!　Don't think you'll listen to Vortex Wave.　After all, she's already--
I know. So you'll be forced to listen to me. Yeah, forced (・・・・・) ......
A vortex wave that can only use auxiliary magic is no match for a one-on-one with a mistress. ......

　Lord gives a small shake of her head. Even now, she doesn't seem to believe the idea of me trying to fight a thorough battle. I guess she's proud of her power to think so.

"Don't lick me. "Don't underestimate me," she said, "when it comes to the art of swordplay, there's no one who's better than me.

　Ever since I fell here, I've been taking advantage of the rearguard position, but that's not because I can't be a vanguard. I just dared to step back for the sake of overall efficiency.
　However, Lord, who had never seen my swordsmanship properly, judged it to be a vanity.

''You're getting carried away because you were lucky enough to defeat the weakened Aleiss ....... You can only hide and shoot magic ......!
"Don't be with me in the 'past' ....... You'll regret it. ......

　Now, Lord sees the world superimposed on the 'past' of a thousand years ago.
　I'm looking at me as 'Kanami, the leader of the knight guards' and Ryner as 'my former brother'.
　In order to deny that, I declare with a sword instead of magic.

　The Lord, who received that wariness, enlarges the magic power clothed in the wings on his back. Then he points the muzzle of the bayonet in his right hand at me. He seems to have realized that it's impossible to make me surrender through conversation and threats.

''--then try to make your mistress regret it!　All of which Mistress will deny and make you a vassal again!　Come on in, Vortex Wave!
Yeah, let's go!　Lord--!

　With that last, I run out.
　First of all, I try to read the opponent's bayonet's line of fire with the magic Dimension Decisive Operation (Gradiate). But I soon realize that there's no need for that. Lord was trying to use the bayonet as a sword instead of a gun.

　Lord holds the bayonet carelessly and does not move.
　It seems that he intends to go along with the close combat in order to deny my earlier words.

''First of all, let's see that 'swordsmanship' thing. This mistress has no use for a quivering sword.
You don't have to say a word. I'm going to show you--

　I'm going to run straight to show off my "swordsmanship".

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world. This is the absolute requirement for victory in this battle, as seen by the magic "Realize", a dimension graded operation.

　He vigorously draws out the "Crescent Pectrazi's Straight Sword". However, what comes back is a hard sound as if he had struck iron.

　The Lord, who received the sword, chuckles.
　Unlike the 'Straight Sword of Crescent Pectrazi' which has substance, Lord's bayonet is constructed with magical power. I make the bayonet lose its substance for a moment and let it slip through my sword.

　First, the skill 'Sensitivity' is activated, and then the skill 'Swordsmanship' teaches me the corresponding technique. I use the pommel head at the end of the hilt to defend against the tip of the approaching bayonet by striking and flicking it.
　Once again, a high-pitched iron sound sounded, and Lord lost his stance.

''Don't--!　But--!

　However, there was no gap in his collapsed stance.
　Right now, Lord's body was swimming and he was on his toes with one left leg, and his center of gravity was tilted.

　And yet, no matter where he struck the attack, he didn't feel like he was going to fall.
　The reason for this is simple--.

"-- "Wined (・・・・)

　Using a perfectly controlled (and controlled) wind magic, Lord is balancing his body.
　And from that impossible stance, a slash of ridiculous power comes flying from his impossible stance, making use of his messed up muscle power.

''Kuch!

　I abandoned the chase and defended with my sword.
　I thought I had created a decisive opening, but I got a counterattack on the opposite end.

''Haha!　Well, you certainly don't look any different than before!　But that's not enough to make me--!

　Lord somersaults and finally uses the air as a foothold.
　Then, with her body upside down, she stepped through the sky fixed with 《Wind》 and slashed up a bayonet from above my head. From the skill 'Swordsmanship', I pull out a mold to defend against that messy slash up and manage to prevent it with the sword's belly - but her continuous attacks still continue.

　The Lord's sword, which should have been bounced, is guided by the surrounding wind and strikes again, ignoring the inertia.
　Hence, despite possessing the highest-ranked skill 'Sword Art', she is forced to defend against it.

　Naturally, my "swordsmanship" is definitely better than yours.
　It's just that her physical movements are simply too fast.
　And the bullshit stance, the sword flashes, and the weight shifts are no longer beyond the bounds of "swordsmanship".

　The thing that makes this nonsense possible is wind magic 《WIND》.
　She had said that once the foundation was laid, anything was possible. It was a series of unchanted "wands" that seemed to prove it.

　This sword dance that seemed to dance in the weightlessness of space had already reached another skill that could be called 'Wind Sword Technique'.

''How about that, Vortex Wave!　Isn't the concubine stronger--?

　Lord smiles proudly at me as he sees me on the defensive.
　I wanted to say something back to that premature conviction of victory, but I silently accept it.
　There's no need to bother telling my opponent that my 'swordsmanship' hasn't yet shown its true potential.

''What's more, mistress!　Fight like this and you're still strong!

　Perhaps because I didn't say anything back, Lord gets even better.

　And, using that bayonet as a decoy, he tries to grab the hem of my clothes with his extra left arm.
　It's a good idea to prove that you can do not only 'swordplay' but also 'bodywork'. It's just a matter of bragging about it, and I'm slow to react to that sudden change in tactics.

　The hem is grabbed - thrown roughly to the right side.

　Due to Lord's inhuman physical strength, my body flies right through the streets of Vieissia like an ejected bullet. As a result, I hit the walls of the houses that stand in a row and smash them out - and without losing momentum, I also hit the houses next to them and smash them out - about five times, and then, after a vigorous run down the big street I rolled.

'Guh, ah--ha!

　With the increase in leveling up, my body's endurance and HP have jumped up.
　I quickly stand up in the midst of the curling dust cloud, grateful for my body that has become sturdier than a house. However, that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. If I had hit it wrong, I could have broken my bones.

　I stand up and immediately try to re-gather information on the surrounding terrain - not with magic, but with the naked eye, I find several knights with surprised expressions, holding their weapons at the ready.

''--Well, no way, Knight Commander-sama!
But why go through the wall?

　Suddenly, someone had blown up and it was the rebels who were searching for them. It was natural for them to be in a hurry.

　But now was not the time to deal with them.
　Without replying, he leapt and climbed on top of the house that had been pushed through. He moved from place to place like this and tried to shake off the knights.
　At that time, 《Dimension》 detects the existence of bullets flying at super high speed.

''--!

　I slump over and dodge the wind's bullets.
　Then, in the distance, I spot Lord, who has climbed onto the roof just like me.

'Don't run, Vortex Wave!　You can't run away from them, and they are strong, even at this distance!　Ah, no matter where you are, no matter what time of day, no matter what battle you're in, you're stronger than anyone else--the mistress!　You are strong!　Hence, my concubine is the 'Lord' who stands above all, the 'ruling king' (Lord)!
"Idiot!　Just move it!　This is where people get involved!

　It seems that they have decided that going up to the roof is an escape. I'm dismayed by his too-short thinking, but I urge him to move.

'Move it!　Why?　Where are you going?　It's the same, no matter where you are...　--Magic.

　But Lord returned that there was no need to do so, and began shooting a large amount of compressed wind from the muzzle of the gun.
　Countless high speed flying wind bullets are attacking me, but the 《Dimension》 I use is a good match for long range weapons. I read all of their trajectories and avoid all of them.
　As a result, countless explosions erupted behind me.

''This, this--!

　Apparently, these wind bullets explode as soon as they land.
　The Lord continues to shoot the magic bullets and continues to dodge them while jumping from roof to roof. Naturally, the city of Vyasia is destroyed one by one.
　The roofs are blown off as if they were exposed to the bombing. With the sound of destruction, a wolf smoke rises. From that conspicuous attack, it was clear that she thought nothing of the intervention of the surrounding knights.

''Chii, do you avoid this level!　Then you will have to change your ammunition!　--'Thunderbolt and Gale are the rings,' and 'I put a different bullet in my soul'!

　Along with the chanting, the Lord begins to knead the magic of his body.
　Then a voice comes up from the road downstairs.

It's the 'Lord' who controls--?　If you're fighting the Lord Knight Commander!
"Our Lord who rules has returned!　Our Saviour hadn't betrayed anyone!
'Ah, you're finally back!　'Here', the home of the 'Lord'!

　A few knights were delighted to see Lord.
　However, the Lord's face contorts as he receives their encouragement. He then orders them to spit it out.

''-- Then don't interrupt me!　Hold back!

　The king's scolding caused the knights to stiffen their legs as they tried to get to reinforcements.

　Lord is frustrated.
　The people's voices made it perfectly clear that her mind was raging like a storm.

　And as the scene of her heart leaked out, Lord's surroundings began to be charged.
　A thick magical force of wind blew in, and with a bang, bang, bang, thunder gushed out with a sound.
　It was as if a great storm with thunder was personified and standing there. I'm not fighting a person, but a natural disaster.

　Next, the lightning concentrates in one spot.
　The bayonet in Lord's hand piles charge upon charge, and the 《Dimension》 senses that the bayonet in Lord's hand begins to emit an unusual power.

　--Ko, this is ......!　I haven't been familiar with it since I moved here, but you don't think it's magnetic ......?　

　《Dimension》 and the knowledge of the original world predicted its true identity.
　There was no doubt that the movement of that peculiar current was generating a tubular magnetic force field (or something like it). The 《Dimension》, which analyzes that magnetic field, reads the danger of that magnetic field, and the skill 'Sensitivity' sounds a warning sound in his head.

　--Well, not good!

　As soon as I understood that, I jumped back right next to him.

'Run through it!　Thunderbolt magic bullet--!

　Then a blinding flash of light filled the room, and a purple electric bullet rushed through.

　The moment I thought it was released, the space I had been in a moment ago had been pierced.
　Its power was also extraordinary.
　Even though it wasn't a dimensional magic, the space where the bullet passed through was distorted.

'Do you avoid the initial speed (...) or--!　But this bullet is an error-adjustment test!　My mistress' bullets are still 'accelerating'!

　--I managed to dodge.

　But the loading still doesn't stop.
　Like the reloading of a shell casing, it drains the blackened magic power from the bayonet and begins to knead more magic power.

　It's not just the charging that's terrifying. Neither the wind nor the magic power stops expanding.
　I break out in a cold sweat at that natural disaster-like magic power management.
　My mouth, which I had intended to continue laughing with an air of composure, almost froze.

　You don't say the words, but you put a stop to the Lord in your mind.

　--Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!　I... I mean, what is it?
　More warding added?　
　That was a bit of a problem before.

　A kama-weasel develops in the thin barrel of the gun, creating countless tubes of vacuum. That's not all. The Lord's magic creates a distortion in space, repeatedly compressing and expanding the air, even producing a very small but pseudo-gravitational collapse. A vicious 'ward' that doesn't resemble the magical world approximately - but a vicious 'force field' was developing inside that little bayonet. It's natural to break out in a cold sweat when you see such a ridiculous scene. And there's no doubt about it. The person who taught me this was a resident of my world--.

"Don't you die, Cuirinha!　This is what your past has given you!　I'll take that sin!　--Magic Bullets (Flyshoot), "Heavy Collapse Colored Non-Wind Sword (Nachtkult Gram)" wuuuuu!

　--Or rather, none other than the original Kanami (me)!

　When Lord shouted the otherworldly magic name with all his might, he was sure of it. The way he shouted was the same as the method of magic operation he taught Ryner a while ago.

　--What a dangerous thing to teach this idiot, dammit!

　While swearing at my past self for an unknown number of times already, I also shout out my magic as best I can.

''--Dimension Curvature Operations (Reference)!

　Building magic while taking evasive action.
　But we know it's physically impossible to avoid it.
　Hence, the main goal is to change the line of fire by shifting the space (...).

　When the two finished shouting, the magic was activated at the same time.

　What was released from the muzzle of Lord's bayonet was a flash - but not darkness.
　A black bullet was seen - and at the same time, a line was drawn across the world.

　It's not a "ray of light" (laser) but a black line that should be called a "dark line" (laser).
　The dark ray (laser) is shot at my belly and bends just before it hits. Due to the dimensional shift, it changed its trajectory and went into the sky.

　Immediately afterwards, a high-pitched sound that resembled the screams of a beast's demise rang out.

　When he checked behind him with the 《Dimension》, he saw a large hole in the sky.
　A black hole reminiscent of a picture of a black hole in a science textbook had been drilled into the ward called 'Viaisia'.

　Cracks appeared around the forcibly made wind hole. Cracks appeared in the space and the sky began to peel away with every passing moment. The membrane of the boundary created by the progenitor Kanami is shattering like an eggshell.

"--Oh, you!　You're going to destroy 'here'?
If Kanami was here, we could fix it!
That's not why you're here!　That's not the kind of magic you can shoot in the presence of people!
"This is the magic Kanami taught us to shoot people with!　Then what's wrong with shooting at Kanami!
Did I say that?
Yes!
"......, then you can just shoot me!　But don't shoot at the country of 'Viasia'!
You don't want to hit Viaisia because Kanami will avoid it, do you?
Of course you're going to avoid this!

　We resume fighting, complaining like children, perhaps because of the confusion of seeing unreal magic.
　Seeing Lord try to put more magic bullets in, I run out to switch to close combat. So many times, it's bad to be shot by bullets like now.

　But as I was running, I noticed something strange.

　My left arm is not strong enough.
　When I looked closely, I realized that my left arm was dangling.
　Then, a dull pain strikes you as if it were poking at your brain.

''Why, why--!

　The Demon Bullet (Flyshoot), "Heavy Collapse Colored Non-Wind Sword (Nachtkult Gram)," was perfectly avoided.
　It wasn't even grazed.

　And yet, his arm was twisted and broken--!

　It was really only a slight aftermath, and I got hit in one of my arms.

'Hmm ......?　Phew, phew, you broke it!　What do you think, you've discovered the power of my Demon King!　Finally, you got one!　Hahaha, now the close combat is overwhelmingly won by the mistress!

　Seeing this, Lord was delighted, stopped reloading his magic bullets and ran towards me.
　He thought that if he was dealing with me, whose abilities were diminished due to my wounds, all he had to do was get closer and capture me.

　The Lord kicked the sky and flew away, approaching freely as if mocking gravity.
