"Ra."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Kyle's Tree Spirit. Thanks for your help. By the way, didn't you try to overthrow the Reinsatz family with me?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ra."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't care. But can you show us the way to Kyle's place?　I'm completely disoriented by the plant wards you created, so I don't know where to go."

"Raah."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I caught my breath in the quiet forest, a tree spirit appeared in front of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was the spirit of a plant that Kyle had contracted with.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Originally a glowing green ball-like spirit, it has grown and changed its appearance into a humanoid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is said that Kyle and others can fully communicate with this humanoid spirit, but unfortunately, I cannot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it seemed to understand what I was saying, and when I asked it to guide me to Kyle, it replied "Ra" and started to move.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He answered "rah" and started to move. He was probably guiding me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With this in mind, I followed the wood nymph and moved through the plant's boundary.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it was not Kyle that I met at the end.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... hmm?　What, you didn't lead me to Kyle? Is that him? The Reinzatz elite group."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was walking through a dense forest, accompanied by a wood nymph, when we came to a stop again in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle was not there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But there was someone else.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were members of the elite unit that had attacked the main camp where Kyle was.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were bound by the plants in the forest, their bodies and limbs immobilized.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Branches, roots, and ivy were wrapped around their bodies, holding them in place as if they were crucified.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps they had a fierce struggle with the plants.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There were several cut and broken branches around them, indicating that a fierce battle had been waged.

"Are you Kyle Reed?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm?　Who is it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While I was looking at the elite troops tied to several trees, someone called out to me from behind one of the trees.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Who is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I looked toward him with my sword at the ready and saw Schneider, the head of the Reinzatz family.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is the head of a high aristocratic family and an old general who has fought on many battlefields in his life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, even in his old age, his body is still firm and toned, and he hardly gives the impression of being an old man.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Such a person appeared before me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Isn't that Kyle Reed?　Well, I told the genie that I wanted him to fight Kyle Reed for his last wish. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm afraid I'm not Kyle, Herr Schneider de Reinsatz. I am Ars Valka."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, you're the one who's rumored to be ....... Well, that's fortuitous. I would like you to fight me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Wait a minute. May I ask you one question?　Could it be that Mister Schneider can talk to spirits?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No way. I only wished. The dying man's last wish was to fight with a sword as a warrior.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What's that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Are we to assume that Kyle's genie heard it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps Schneider was no match for this wood nymph.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's why all the other elite troops are in custody.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And Schneider, realizing his defeat, wanted to fight with them sword to sword, at least as a gesture of mercy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What did Spirit-sama interpret that as? He wants to call me to fight instead of Kyle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmmm. Well, that's fine. If it's all right with me, I can fight for Kyle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you. I'll see you at ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have no idea what the wood nymph is thinking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But he had originally jumped down to help Kyle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is also our original purpose to help Kyle before he fights with Schneider.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So I agreed to a one-on-one fight with Schneider.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schneider draws his sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At that moment, I put my magical power into the "sealing bracelet".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had no intention of letting him use the magic of the Reinsatz family, even though we had agreed to a one-on-one duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In response to the magical power, the surrounding area becomes a place where spells cannot be used.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it seems that Schneider had no intention of using spells from the beginning.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He, too, had poured his magic power into what he possessed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was Schneider's magic sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I mean, I've seen it before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schneider is holding the gale sword that I'm holding right now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Oh, no.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I noticed the presence of the magic sword in my opponent's hand and reacted immediately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Not in the form of an attack, but in the form of defense.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Instead of evasion, I chose to concentrate all my magic power on the surface of my skin to defend myself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ggh. "Ouch!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I knew you couldn't reach me. Even if I stop time and attack, the power of the attack is so different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The next moment I raised all my defenses, my body was cut down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had been attacked by Schneider's gale sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I never took my eyes off my opponent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I could not see the attack at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was as if the attack was unrecognizable to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was not a moment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Reinzatz family's "momentary" magic, the magic of the head of the family, is a magic that can stop time and attack the opponent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it cannot be used now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's because the [Bracelet of Enchantment] is indeed effective and blocks the magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Schneider still stopped time and attacked.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It must be the effect of the gale sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Gale Sword is a magic sword passed down in the Lubitsch family, and its effect is to greatly improve the agility of the user.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But perhaps it is only a part of the power of the gale sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It may be the same as the Nine-Tailed Sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Nine-Tailed Sword produces a flaming sword, but when Pessi of the House of Uruk used it, it produced a [black flame].

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the same way, if we extract its ability properly, the gale sword may be able to show not only improved agility but also higher level of ability.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just like Setsuna, it could have the effect of stopping time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's a pity, Mr. Schneider. I was surprised to find such an effect in the gale sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ah, it seems that you also have this gale sword. Perhaps it belonged to the Lubitsch family. But this is a magic sword originally made by the Reinsatz family. It was a gift from the head of the Reinzatz family to a former friend of mine, the Lord of Swords, at the time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see. So that's how it happened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. But I'm sorry. I had prepared this gale sword as my last trump card. I had no idea that my strength would be so low by the time I got close enough to reach him. The Reinsatz family is finished.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Only one sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schneider slashed at me and I just took the attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Normally, Schneider's side would have had the upper hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it was not to be.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I said it hurt, but there was almost no damage to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's because Schneider's attack was completely impervious to my magical defenses.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is because Schneider, the head of the Reinsatz family, has a very low magical energy level.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The amount of magic that flows out of his body now is frighteningly less than it was before this battle of the Reinsatz Plain began.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He can hardly be called the head of a high noble family, for he has lost about the same amount of magical power as the other heads of the nobility.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I am sure that outside the boundaries of this plant, the trend has already been decided.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schneider must have understood what happened to the Reinisatz army, which was surrounded by the dome of illusionary flowers and burned by the black flame with each illusionary flower.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reason why his own magical power has decreased so drastically is because he has lost so many of his subordinates.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, otherwise I might not have been able to take the fight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we had faced a fully prepared Schneider, there is a good chance that we would have been defeated by the current attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I took the fight because I knew beforehand that would not happen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He re-grips the sword in his hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were exchanging words with each other, but they were not letting up in the slightest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And now we are ready to attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic power that had been gathered on the surface of his skin was redistributed in an instant, and this time we also increased our speed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although not fast enough to stop the time, she slashed at Schneider, moving at high speed with increased muscular strength, along with the agility-enhancing effect of the gale sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that Schneider does not have enough magic power to stop time again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He tries to defend himself against my attack, but he seems to give up his defense halfway through, and lowers his arm to receive the attack with the grenade.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The sharpness of the sword cut a fatal wound on Schneider's body without any resistance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schneider then falls to the ground on his back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, the battle with the Reinsatz family came to an end in the middle of a dense forest where no one was watching.
