 The stage is set and the fight begins.

 At that moment, there was room in Yotaki's expression.
 Even though it was a pseudo-magic, the countless nerves that were in the air had been torn out, and she still had a thin smile on her face.

''Hmph. This big 《Torsion》 is a mechanism that once you leave, you can't come back. It's good magic. ...... With this, the two of us can fight to the fullest extent.

 The sky she looked up at was blotchy like a watercolor painting that had been over-soaked in water by dimensional magic.
 The 'threads' that had been torn out of the blotted sky were falling as particles of light. The real snow and the snow of magic mixed together, shimmering down and seeping into the ground.

 We nodded to each other that our preparations for battle were over while looking at this new territory together.

'Ah, now we can fight to our heart's content. ...... It's about time I, too, got used to my new magical power.
'Then why don't we start with a little exercise? ...... just like old times. Together again, brother and sister.

 He smiles with a really happy smile.
 Towards that yang-taki, I approach with the 'Aleis Family's Treasure Sword Lowen' in my right hand.
 She also generated the exact same shape sword with ice.

 --I'm still trying to match the way we fight.

 In order to break that margin, the moment I entered the interval, I swung my sword right out of the way with all my might.
 Yotaki also swung his sword at exactly the same time.

 As if reflected in a mirror, the two flashes of fire struck each other.
 At the same time, a wind was created at each other's feet. The snow on the ground was blown away and more cracks appeared on the paved ground.

 Due to repeated 'magic power conversions' (leveling up), we were no longer in the category of human beings. With massless muscles packed into our limbs to the limit, it was no longer a clash between human-sized creatures, but a clash between giant monsters.

 The next two flashes cut the sky with each other.
 The pressure of the two swords that were slashed up reached the sky, and the clouds that covered it were ripped into three pieces. The third flash of Yokonagaki did not reach each other's bodies either.

 With those three gyos, I feel that there is no significant difference between me and Yotaki, if only in 'Sword Art'.
 Of course, this is with the assistance of the 'Aleis Family's Treasure Sword Lowen'. Most importantly, I saw Rustyala's 'Sword Technique' in the 'Past Vision' earlier.

 Her sword had ultimately become the very history of the people who lived in this world.
 It was a sword that contained the "blank millennia" between "Rowen's Life a Thousand Years Ago" and "The Present Day We Live In".
 The "blank thousand years" has been added to my "swordsmanship" and has become my power.

 In other words, I'm writing the continuation of the swordsmanship that I inherited from Rowen, the Areis style. Just like Rastiara's last will and testament, I'm going to continue everyone's--

It's been a long time, brother.

 As the 'swordsmanship' game increases their concentration on each other without limit, Yotaki's voice reaches your ears.

''I missed ......?''
Yes. This is how we used to exercise together in the past.

 That being said, I remember the past.
 Memories of the original world, more than a thousand years ago.
 This is certainly how we competed with each other, even when we were young.

 We used to compare our athletic abilities in the huge playground, which also served as a physical measurement.
 I think it was snowing at that time, too. It was winter, and the playground we'd rented out with our money's worth was stained white, and we'd made many footprints on it.

 It was a time when I, as a young boy, wanted to be recognized by my mother and father, and I was desperate to be the 'best' in the world.
 And it was also a time when Yotaki, who kept achieving slightly better results than me, was always next to me.

''-- Only, not once did my brother ever beat me. Not even once.

 Yotaki waved that fact on his sword.

''............!

 The sword played.
 But her words could not be prevented.

 So the defeats of the past come to mind.
 Even at a time like this, I reread a bit of my childhood story now.

"--Many times I have lost.
 I stayed alone in the blank playground, poking my knees and crying.
 And my parents kept praising only my sister (Hitaki). My parents kept scolding my brother (Kanami) for his inadequacy. That's why I resented my sister.
 I wanted to beat him somehow, so I challenged him in every way possible.
 Over and over again, I tried and tried and tried - and I was broken.
 In the end, I couldn't win against my younger sister, who was a year older than me, no matter what I tried.
 I couldn't win, not even once.
 Gradually, my parents only looked at my sister, and I, the older brother, was treated as something that didn't exist in the house. Such a hard and painful memory of the past--

 Thinking back, I thought to myself that I had missed it, too.

That's why I'm going to beat you today. ...... here.

 Then he swung his sword back with force.
 Looking at me, Yotaki's smile deepens.

''Yes. ......! That's why we've come here. We've come to this day. At long last, today, we've come to this--!

 The sword fights between the "monsters" continue as the family reminisces about their shared memories.
 While destroying a completely unrelated "different world", they were also eating the "demonic poison" of their surroundings.

 Each step crushed the earth, and each swing carved the sky.
 The garden of the cathedral gradually became unable to maintain the appearance of a garden. However, we continue to fight as hard as we can, unconcerned with the damage around us. We focus our consciousness on the battle alone.
 While fighting, we continue to sublimate the "swordsmanship" of the Alais style, and to that end--

Yotakii...
Hmmm--

 In the midst of a sword fight, he called his sister's name.
 No more sarcastic snide remarks came back. Gradually, Yotaki seems to be focusing his attention solely on the battle.
 In sync with me, Yotaki also shouted back only his name.

''-- Brother!

 My sister, who is always calm and never raises her voice, gave an unstructured response.
 That fact gives me a sense of the response to the fight.

 --I'm sure that right now, without a doubt, Yotaki is concentrating on the swordfight with me.

 Both of us are drawing on each other's strength, thinking only of winning.
 A battle in which all the power and all the strength are at odds with each other.
 The gap - he (...), he (..), he pokes (..).

Oh. Finally, we've come to this moment.

 Reiner's voice.
 Before I knew it, he was behind me.
 I stepped out of his back to the side, trying to interrupt this antagonistic sword fight.

''--? Also (...) ......

 That third party's appearance was immediately noticed by Yotaki as well.
 However, he wasn't surprised by the appearance of that liner, he just showed a dumbfounded face.

 He looked disappointed that it was the same surprise attack again (...).
 That was familiar and futile, and his expression conveyed that it was useless, even if there were no words.

 Yotaki, who was in a watered-down form, didn't even look at Ryner.
 I guess he doesn't have any threat at all to the twin-sword user who only has one arm left. With my attention focused on me, I try to get rid of him with only the automatic ice that moves automatically as an example. In fact, I know, as a companion, that that assessment is not wrong.

 I just felt...

 --I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to expect.

 I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to get it right.

 The "Heavenly Sword Noah (・・・・)" is pulled out of my "possessions" without permission (・・・・・).
 At that time, I realized that this "Arm of the Wind" is the arm of the dead knight Hain, the arm of the dead "Jewelcrus" Haili, as well as the arm of the people that Ryner had inherited.

 The 'blood power' that goes through the 'Arm of the Wind' is so thick that one page can read.

"--this one swing (...).
 It had already begun in the third year of the new calendar year.
 Ever since that day, I had made up my mind that I would use the skill 'Divine Iron Forging' as a hand to counter Sister Youtaki.
 So even after Sister Yangtaki became a 'monster', even after my master was swallowed up in the labyrinth, even after I founded a country and a religion on the continent, and even after I grew old all by myself, I continued to forge the skill 'Divine Iron Forge' for years and years. Years and years and years and years and years - and years and years - and years - and years - and years - and years - and years - and years - and years - and years - and years.
 At the end of my mind-numbing forging, I made a sword called 'Heavenly Sword Noah'.
 However, this sword, which is the crystal of this 'Divine Iron Forge', is not yet complete.
 I dared to do so.
 In order to hide its true 'role'.
 To hide the 'jutsu formula' that I wrote down.
 In order to hide the 'price' that was piling up.
 He dared to say that "Heavenly Sword Noah" would be completed in a thousand years.
 A thousand years later, the Heavenly Sword Noah would be completed by "us". And that one swing of the sword will surely be the only weapon (item) in the 'world' that can reach Sister Yotaki. Believe that--

 That delivery from a thousand years ago was now received by a knight's arm.

 Then, the 'Arm of the Wind' grasps a sword and swings it out. Hidden in the shadow of Ryner's sword, hidden behind my shadow, 'Heavenly Sword Noah' intersects in the midst of the antagonistic sword fight.

 First, as a matter of course, Ryner's surprise sword was stopped.
 The freely moving ice blade of the example played.

 That's where Yotaki's defenses stopped for a time - the hidden "Arm of the Wind" did not stop.
 It emerged from the shadow of the stopped sword and one of its swords rushed out.
 In unison, Ryner shouts.

''Please go!

 ''Heavenly Sword Noah'' crosses Yangtaki's ice defense.

''--What?

 Yangtaki looked at the twin swords that shouldn't have existed and for the first time today, he uttered a voice of surprise.
 Even I had never seen that expression before.

 Ryner smiled at his reaction.
 He must have believed it.
 His own arms are unreachable. There is no way I can believe in myself.
 However, this 'Arm of the Wind' is different.
 In this "For the Two Boys and Girls" stage, this twin swords will not be defeated by anyone. Believing that, Ryner is about to let out a voice of victory.


Okay, it's decided.
I'm sure (・・・・・)


 It is interrupted.
 The flow (...) becomes 'still'.
 As if to say that everything up until now was an act, Yotaki's expression had returned to a relaxed state.

 Furthermore, before you know it, the arm made of ice that grew from Yotaki's shoulder - the 'ice arm' - was grabbing the wrist of the 'wind arm'. The 'Heavenly Sword Noah''s cutting edge was not able to reach it when it was almost there.

''Nah--''

 The voice that Yangtaki spilled out in his act was repeated by Ryner next.
 The white frost crawled from the "ice arm" and the entire sword and "arm of the wind" were frozen. It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get your hands on it.

''Why, why ......! It was different then.

 I try to reach out to Ryner, who is muttering in confusion. However, the speed of Yotaki's sword that was facing me instantly increased.

 This is a sharp sword movement that makes it seem like this one too was all an act.
 I was flung backwards by Yotaki's sword.

 A few meters away from me.
 And by the time I looked up, Yotaki had already broken all the ice blades. With his fingertips, he crushed the frozen 'Arm of the Wind' and grabbed the hilt of the falling 'Heavenly Sword Noah' with his right hand.

''Ryner-kun, you did your best. ...... great. Really, great, great.''

 Ryner was in a sword-wielding stance and was completely 'still'.
 It would be the [Power of Water] that Yangtaki possessed.
 It was no longer an ice-cold that would make it impossible for him to return on his own again.

''Thanks to the Irregular called you, it was very easy to clean up. Thank you ...... for your help.

 He also added an unchored icy magic, Ice, and continued his critique while placing the liner in a clean ice coffin.
 It was one of the 'answers' on the page that continued from the previous thousand years ago.

'For a thousand years now, Tiara has been preparing so many pieces. The two that stand out among them are probably the 'Palinclone Legacy', the successor to the Apostle Legacy, and his brother's copy, the 'Ragne Kaikwola'. Of course, the real piece was Rastiara Hoozeyers. ...... but Tiara dared to entrust his own memories to Rainer Helvirshain early on. Only to you (the Irregulars) who did not exist in the Prophecy a thousand years ago. Hoping that you would change the clichéd future. ...... -- So I've been watching you (・・・・・) for a long time (・・・・・).

 The fact that Yotaki seemed to have been caught off guard showed that it was an act.

 He had read that Reiner was the pawn for Tiara's checkmate, and pretended not to notice it. And he knew the true 'role' of 'Heavenly Sword Noah', and kept him swimming all the time - and used him.

''As a result, you were guided by the 'thread' and put together all the hopes left in the other world in one place. What was troublesome for me was the large number of 'predispositioned' humans with 'demonic poison' scattered around the world and being run around -

 While speaking, Yotaki turned his attention to his surroundings.
 The garden of the cathedral stretched out by the 《Torsion》 was empty, but Yotaki's eyes caught a further distance. I can follow that gaze with the power of the 《Dimension》.

 Dia Maria Snow collapses outside the cathedral.
 Furthermore, outside the confederacy, I can see the troops sent out from the 'North-South Alliance' falling down.
 The elites of the modern era, including excellent knights like Perciona-san and Sera-san, are also frozen in regret as they are sent out to defeat Yangtaki.
 Everyone fights with all their might for the mission of waking me up--

Thus, all of us are dead. Mr. Reiner, I owe you everything.

 It was revealed that it was as planned by Yangtaki.

"Above all, it was really helpful that I was able to deal with Maria, who possesses Arti, the 'one who steals the truth of fire', with my own hands. And now the 'Heavenly Sword Noah,' which seems to be the last trick, is also--

 Yangtaki carefully traced the blade of the 'Heavenly Sword Noah' with his finger and let it be covered with pure white frost.
 It was obvious at a glance that all the 'techniques' and 'compensations' were sealed.

'Now it's mine. ...... Oh, thank you so much. Your brother's knight, Mr. Rainer Helvilshein.

 This is where Reiner's ice statue is completed.
 It's carefully sealed with large ice.
 And despite all this cynicism, neither Ryner's body nor his magic power moved slightly. Looking at the situation, Yotaki sighs, ''Haha.

...... Apart from that, you could have at least received a flash of inspiration. I'm sorry, I may have been a little less mature. ...... Even though your fighting style was really admirable.

 Since the win or loss never came, he was modest in his praise.
 The agitation up to this point was part of the game, and he seemed to be somewhat pitying Ryner, who had been discarded in his heart.

 After taking away "Heavenly Sword Noah", Yotaki turned to me with the face of an actor who had finished his job.

''Well, ....... --《Ice Flamberge》

 The 'Heavenly Sword Noah' in his hand was covered with additional ice, making it a new ice sword.
 He's going to use it as just an unbreakable sword. He shook it lightly a few times to check the feel of the sword.

''Hmph. It's a cool magic, isn't it? The fact that they dare to use a sword in the shape of a flame (flamberge) is, hmmm--

 I can no longer take that joke in stride.
 It started with an act of sickness, then a frail sister act. And now the stupefying and trapped acting. The acting of praise, the acting of pity.

 I've been thinking about this since I was a kid, when we were competing with my brother and sister.
 I don't trust Yotaki.
 After all, my sister is too much of an actor--.

'Yes, I'm a good actor. ...... because my siblings and I were taught directly by professional actors. I'm also good at it.

 Reading my thoughts, Yotaki replied ahead of time.

 Immediately I checked to see if there were any 'threads' attached to me.
 Everything that was connected to me has been torn off. I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you.

 The answer is simple.
 It's not that you don't have the "thread", but Yotaki can read other people's thoughts. Using only the skills he possesses, he reads people's minds, reads their actions, and guides them as if they were breathing.

 Thinking about it, Yotaki has always been like that and speaks.

'It was ...... so. Come to think of it, it happened.
Only, in the end, your brother couldn't even beat me at acting.

 They could see from the beginning that I was overreacting a bit to take advantage of my hidden liner.

 While apologizing to my knight in my mind, I move forward.
 The 'Treasured Sword of the House of Alais, Lowen' in my right hand is still in my hand.

''I was interrupted for a bit, but shall we resume? ...... What about the 'swordsmanship' in the main, I wonder?

 Implicitly, Yotaki warns me that the sword fight until now was not serious.

 However, this is not a reason to retreat.
 Originally, I'm fighting to beat an opponent I can't beat.
 I'm challenging myself to reach heights that will never be reached.

I will win .......

 I repeated those words and challenged him to another round of 'swordsmanship'.

 This skill "swordsmanship" is the one I believe in the most. I'm not going to be the only one who's been in the same boat as you.
 I'm not going to be able to get rid of it. I'll never--

'I've missed that, too. ...... I've heard it over and over again.

 Yotaki answers that voice in his heart as well.
 And as the swords and swords are struck against each other, they are taught.

'Actually, I heard it all the time. When I was a child, my brother challenged me to a game many times, and that's how I was screaming in my mind--

 When people say I was a child, the following page from the previous one comes to my mind.

"--The first time I was aware of the competition was 'the special training to let the tears out freely'.
 My sister accomplished it in less than half the time it took me to accomplish it, and I had my father and mother's love all to myself.
 Then I challenged my sister again and again to get back to being 'the best'.
 I never said it out of pride in being a brother. I challenged him in my mind and lost countless times, and then I fell apart on my own.
 There was no way for anyone to know about it.
 I was supposed to be the only one with memories of losing and losing and losing and being painstakingly broken, and I was on the verge of suicide - "No (...), I was watching the whole time.

 During the skill 'Reading', Yotaki's voice interrupts him.
 He also brings his face closer to her, causing her to bristle, "Look at me now, not at the memories.

 Two vacant eyes flicker in front of you.

'Even though no one else was watching, your sister was the only one who watched your brother's efforts all along. You kept losing, losing, losing, losing to me over and over again, and your brother's desperation--''
............!

 He was known for that consecutive losing record.
 Instantly, my breath becomes shallow and thin.

 Just by trying to challenge Yotaki, my body instinctively stiffens.
 Even though there's no reason for the example [no one can beat Yotaki], my heart must have acknowledged it.

 You can't win against my sister.
 So don't go against her.

 Such trauma overflows out, and the balance of mind and body that has been maintained for a long time is about to collapse.
 But--

I don't care!

 He shouted back and swung away.
 He pushes and flicks the sword that was in a battle of wits, creating a pause.

 He further prepared his body and mind to activate the depths of the Areis style.
 He has not yet lost the 'swordsmanship' competition.
 The flexibility of the Alais style "swordsmanship" is available when the opponent is an overwhelmingly strong person.
 The skill of sensing the flow of the world, "sensitivity", will help you find a way to deal with a strong opponent.

 I'm going to temporarily disarm the Dimension and focus only on the "sensitivity" skill.

It's not going to work for 'sensitivity' either. ...... In the first place, I was the one who found that Rowen Ares, right?

 However, even with 'sensation', he couldn't see anything.
 The 『Sensitivity』, which should be able to fight even in the darkness, did not feel anything in front of Yotaki.
 I hurriedly re-activated the Dimension, and in front of me, Yotaki, who missed my failure, was smiling softly.

''It was I who named that skill 'Sensitivity' a thousand years ago. Indeed, Lowen Alais' skill of sensing the reason and flow of the 'world' is a big deal ....... But this one can manipulate the 'world' and make sense and flow. The hierarchy is very clear.

 Yotaki turned his attention to his own 'threads'.

 All of the "threads" that stretched out in the air have been torn off, but there are still some that have grown from the tips of their hair to the ground. The remaining "threads" crawled on the ground and continued to create a white wave - a stream (...) in this "world".

''It's a skill that I am determined not to win. ''Sensitivity (it) is.''

 After finishing his explanation, Yotaki slowly walks out and resumes his 'Sword Art' battle.
 I respond to it with the Aleis Family's Treasure Sword Lowen, but I am slowly becoming unable to catch up with the speed of Yotaki's Heavenly Sword Noah.

 Even if I try to use "sensitivity", I can only feel the flow (...) created by Yotaki.
 I'm not going to be able to get out of it.

 --I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's not.

 Even if me, Rowen, and Rustyala combined, Yotaki alone is still better than the three of us.
 If this is the case, he will be cut off first, and the victory condition of incapacitation will be met.
 I can see that future. Then, before that, the magic (...)--

Do you want to use a spell called Von a Wraith?

 Soooooo, Yotaki took a step back.
 ''I dare to give him the time he needs to use his great technique to give me the time he needs to use it.

''His life is the Alais family's very motto of 'The Sword that Ends Demons'. Hence, that magic will 'always slay the enemy'. ...... Yes, that's all (・・・・) magic (...). To be honest, I don't think it's a good match for my opponent.

 I'm choosing my words, but Yotaki says it's pointless.
 I'm looking at Yotaki, who in Tiara's memory was unfazed by a bullet to the head. However, just flying the head off would definitely be pointless against Yotaki.

''............. --magic 《Dimensional Decisive Operation (Dimension Graduate) 'Realize'

 So (...), I used the time Yotaki gave me to strengthen the best auxiliary magic I had.
 Focusing on the foul magic of seeing the infinitely branching future, I resume the fight.

"The next step is the magic - no, the 'future vision' game? Of course, I'll go along with you. It's been a while since I've exercised with my brother.

 Even with that foul play, Yotaki declares that he'll match it, and he re-positions the frozen 'Heavenly Sword Noah'.

 Then the distance between me and Yotaki is closed again, and as if reflected in a mirror, the crystal sword and the ice sword strike each other.

 It's the same beginning as the 'Sword Art' earlier.
 However, the process that led to it is very different.

 As I ran, I saw the future of hundreds of battles with magic ahead of time.
 From among them, I chose "The Future of Cutting off Yotaki's Arm" and tried to draw it in. However, in reality, they arrived at the "future where their swords cross each other's arms".

 Our swords are smashed together and our bodies are played off each other.
 Immediately, Yotaki and I try to swing our swords back at each other.
 Before that, the "future vision" is performed again.

 I choose the best flash of my sword from the many sword techniques and try to draw in the future where my sword will cut off Yotaki's arm, but we will arrive at the future where our swords cross each other's arms again.

'Kook--, the 'thread' is cut ......!

 Nevertheless, swords continue to be struck together and the sound of high-pitched sword fights echoes.
 Only Yotaki's choice of 'the future where our swords cross each other's paths' will come. In order to somehow get out of that future, I concentrate all my nerves on my "future vision".

 The blood in my whole body is circulating, especially my head, which is heated as if it were boiling.
 My capillaries swell and my eyes become bloodshot.
 The enormous amount of magic that can't be contained in my skin is about to burst. With an all-time high of concentration, the color slowly fades from my blood-stained, reddened vision. Only the magical senses are sharpened and the five physical senses are lost.

 As a result, the stretching of experience time by the Dimension Decisive Operation (Gradiate) exceeded the limit.
 Time is compressed into compression and finally stops moving as if the snowfall has stopped.
 I'm going to be able to draw the fastest sword in the stillness of time.

 -- but the sword does not reach.

 Swords and swords clash again.
 I'm not sure how many times I've tried to get out of Yotaki's choice of a future where our swords cross each other's paths.

 -- Even without the white 'thread' of the example, nothing will change.

 I keep being controlled by an invisible thread, and I can't escape.
 I'm going to be able to see the unfathomable eyes of the manipulator as I fight.
 As if in sarcasm, he was imitating and using my magic, Dimension Graduate "Realize". And I can see that it is clearly beyond my magic.

 However, unlike me, who was randomly filling the entire space with 《Dimensional Decisive Operations (Dimension Graduate), Pre-Sequel (Realize)》, Yotaki was only expanding on the eyeballs.

 Rational.
 Indeed, if you're going to attract it by sight, that's all you need to do.
 Yotaki's "Dimensional Decisive Operation (Dimension Graduate) 'Realize'" is more refined.
 There is less waste.
 The density of magic power is different.
 The same magic, but it's not the same.

 When I was painfully aware of this, I heard a voice.

''It can't be helped, ....... I'm more used to using this 'future vision' magic than my brother.

 He had a very gentle voice.
 With more apologies, he comes to painstakingly fold my heart.

''I'm sorry, brother. ...... Actually, from the beginning, I was able to use magic. A thousand years ago, before the Apostles taught me the 'dealings of the world' ......, when I was in my original world, I already have.

 Already, at that stage, my sister was able to use the 'Future Vision'.

 A thousand years ago, I came to this different world and was happy to finally have a field where I could beat Yotaki. However, that was also a 'make-believe' of Yotaki's.

 All my life I've been losing, losing, losing, and losing, and I've never won.
 When I was informed of this, my mind and body were greatly shaken.

'So the truth is that the Gentile summoning a thousand years ago was not 'Diprakra summoned me', but 'I interrupted Diprakra's summoning'. ...... To put it in Tiara-esque terms, the entire story of this other world was a book in my handwriting.

 Yotaki drew an expression to match Tiara's taste.

 Even though she was fighting me with her full strength, Yotaki was full of room to spare.
 The pragmatic Yotaki wouldn't be too interested in swords or books. However, unlike me, he had the presence of mind to adapt to his opponent's tastes.

''-- Therefore, there is no reason for the power born in that book to be applicable to me, the author.

 When he declared that, the 'world' finally falls out of the 'future where our swords cross each other's paths'.
 No, the future other than that was chosen by Yotaki.

 -- just chosen by Yotaki.

 That's all there is to it, and the "world" goes on as it does.

 Slowly the 'future where Yotaki's sword sticks into my shoulder' is approaching.
 It's inevitable.
 Judging that, I quickly try to make my body transparent with magic.

''-- Magic 《Distance Mute》!
It won't work. It's mine, too.

 However, a word.
 Just as Yotaki muttered, the Distance Mute was deployed on Yotaki's ice sword as well, nullifying the evasion by permeability.
 Slowly, the ice sword ripped through the flesh of my shoulder, piercing it.

''--Magic [Default]!
That too, sir.

 He immediately uttered a distance magic, but it was offset and did not activate.
 Yotaki didn't even utter the name of the magic anymore.

 As my magic continued to be cancelled out, I had no choice but to pull out my ice sword by retreating.

 Yotaki looked away from it with plenty of time to spare.
 I readied the ice sword again and waited.

 --Cold.

 Just facing Yotaki, it's cold and my body shivers.
 It was supposed to be real, but it was just as cold as in my dream.
 And heading towards this too cold Yangtze waterfall is too terrifying.

 --in any case, it's not a match.

 Indeed, I've raised the bar.
 I've perfected myself as 'the one who steals the reason for the dimension'.
 Compared to the time I woke up, I've grown both physically and mentally.

 Still, Yotaki and I still have different dimensions (・・・・・).

 This is what Yotaki has been saying all along.
 It's me now, to the extent that we can finally exercise (・・・・・・) together (・・・・・・・・).

 I lack the fundamental power to do so.
 I don't have enough time, desire, trump card, determination, or anything else.
 It's not enough. Not enough, not enough, not enough--

That's what I know all along. Well, I'll tell you what...

 Walking forward.
 Believing only in victory, moving forward.

 No matter how many times it shakes, I will not break.
 Seeing that figure, Yotaki's smile deepened again.

 Then, without mercy, he invokes more magic to show the difference in power.

''Hmph. It's useless, brother. After all, we've already finished almost the same story as this one. ...... Do you remember the family meeting we had on that 'destiny' day, at that 'summit'? --Dimensional Decisive Operation (Dimension Graduate) "Prequel (Recall)

 If you don't remember, I'll help you remember," he said, uttering the magic of 'Past Vision'.
 The scope of its effect was very reasonable, as was the 'Future Vision'.

 Next, it covered the surface of the ice sword, not the eyeball.
 If I was cut by that sword, I would be rendered unable to act, just like when Ayd and Titi were defeated. The density of magic power that made me sure of this was inhabited by 'Heavenly Sword Noah'.

 More than anything else, seeing the 《Dimensional Decisive Operation (Dimension Graduation), Prequel (Recall)》 easily imitated, the word "not enough" presses even more heavily on my shoulders.

'...... Don't be so shocked. That's just the way it is. All of your magic is 'my (...) brother's magic'.
It's all your ......?
'Everything about your brother has the word 'mine' in it's head. You know why, don't you? Because your brother is 'mine' from the beginning. So no matter what you do, no matter what you get, you will have 'mine' on the head of everything.

 The current Yotaki has the power to make that argument nod in agreement.

 The black pair of eyes where the "Dimension Graduation Prequel (Realize)" resides.
 The ice sword that contains the "Prequel (Recall)" from the "Dimension Graduation Calculator".
 It's matched (・・・・) and my heart breaks for Yotaki, who handles my trump card even better than I do.

''-- It's been a long time since I've had a good exercise. Then, let's stop with this 'my brother's magic'. Let's forget everything again and go back to the Wintry Dimension. This time no one will come to help you. There will never be a hindrance again, and my brother will be 'equal' to me. Then, we'll place the 'price' called Rastiara (・・・・・・) in the other world we've squeezed out, and then we'll say goodbye. Let's go to the next other world, ...... both of us.

 I swayed and swayed and swayed and swayed, and now I'm still breaking.
 But the mere mention of its name brought me back up.

 Instead of breaking it, my left hand gets stronger.
 I've lost a lot of things, but I've decided that I'll never let go of the book again.

It's okay. I'll find happiness with my precious sister in the next different world story. That's the kind of grand circle that's waiting for you, brother.

 After the story of the other world is over, I will be happy with my precious Rustyala.
 As long as I believe in that 'dream', I will never give up the fight.
