Episode 3 – World of Dream
Part 1
──Cold
Inside the consciousness that was covered by jet black darkness
Lux was feeling nothing but that sensation that was enveloping his whole body
When was the feeling the coldest through his life until now?
It hen his horse carriage got into an avalanche incident and he got heavily wounded, where he then asked for help but──the people who harbored resentovernradually disappearing warmth under the cold rain
With despair Lux was made to realize that his mother wouldn’t embrace him and his little sister anyh he had the great cause that was the revolution must felt the same
(……But, when human die everyone is alone I’m also the same)
Just like Count Atisreat cause, however they were defeated in the middle of their path and met their end
(Sorry Alialca I──cannot answer your expectation and pay you back for your help)
He got trapped by Queen Raffi’s plan and unable to surainst Lisha
He was unable to even use the truh Baptism
「So you’re only at this level in the end, my decision to take you as my subordinate was ahooded dark blue coat
However the fearless grin he sported and his dangerous aura were falen Shelbrit
He possessed overwhelth He was so person who he believed in
He judged all the talentless mass and the corrupt nobles as evil He wished for a nation that cut away such people
His principle directly ran counter with Lux, but the influence he received fro back to the sarcasrief, there should be a limit at how persistent someone can be)
Lux sht until his life ran out, he still appeared in front of hihost like this several times How many times he would do this until he was satisfied?
But, sonized that this was so
「It’s because you’re weak you say? Don’t spout excuse」
Singlen’s phantom showed a wicked smile that looked down on him He talked to Lux who closed his eyes
「You cannot even be aware of your oeakness You only avert your eyes fro that you can’t hen you don’t even fight──as expected fro──isn’t true
I gave my all for the sake of
But, his body was strangely war? Or perhaps, when he was still living as chore prince he heard the story from someone who came from a snowy country that people would hot instead when it was extre like that?
──No, this wasn’t just warmth, it was also soft
It was pleasant
His eyelids that he thought would never open again lifted up slightly Lux’s world that was locked inside darkness was born once more
(……Eh?)
It hite in front of his eyes
No, he faintly saw that it was the color of skin
At the same time a scent, a soft sweet smell made the inside of his head dazed
When his hand reached out unconsciously, he felt a smooth sensation of skin
「Is this, also a dreaasped in surprise and realized the true identity of the thing his face was buried into
「Aa…… Lux-sa on my skin, but, please do as you like I won’t mind even if it hurt No, rather a little bit of pain will be──」
「──wait, Rosa!?」
A sweet voice of a girl that sounded ecstatic tickled his ear He realized the situation he was in right now
Inside the lifeless rooe irl’s chest on top of a bed
Or rather, they were hugging each other
Furtherle piece of cloth separating them
「…………」
He was in a mortal combat just now But then suddenly he was in this
「Aa, Lux-salad!」
When Rosa saw Lux’s face, she showed an expression of joy with blushi+ng face
And then, she put strength into her arhtly
He was buried into Rosa’s voluptuous and soft breasts It felt like he was going to suffocate
He didn’t understand the situation, but it seemed he had been saved without a doubt
「This place is──? Could it be this is the underground of the Ancient Forest, Avalon’s──」
「Yes From what Aeril told me, it seems to be a facility called the Shelter」
「Or rather, why are we hugging each other naked!?」
Lux was recovering his awareness bit by bit and asked in panic
「Yes Lux-sama’s pilot suit was tattered, so in order to treat your wound later, although it’s rude I took the liberty to take it off…… But Lux-sama, you’re wonderful even naked」
「You don’t need to co!」
He tried to get away froth wouldn’t coo well
It wasn’t because of the hard to resist te stamina
──That should be the case
「Yes Your body was cold, so I thought to warht! If we are seen doing so──」
She said that Aeril was the one who took them here for treatirls ere Lux’s coerous
「It’s fine More importantly, please rest more for now With my body──」
Rosa said that with an intoxicated faint s her lips closer
「Wait, Rosa」
Her naked breasts were pressed on Lux’s chest His head was dazed by the softness
Then, at that time
From outside the room Kiin!, the sound of Ruin’s space teleportation device activating could be heard
「Wai-! This is bad Rosa! Move away quickly and wear your clothes-!」
「Ahn Geez Lux-sarab her shoulders and pushed her away but, his fingers sunk coes on her chest
In that moment, the door of this rooirls froht Celis-senpai and Philuffy-san to here too Is your body alright──looks like there is no need to ask isn’t it……」
「Yes It was a waste of effort to feel worried」
Of all things, it was his little sister as the person he didn’t want to see this scene thewith her best friend
Or rather, there were a lot of other people too near them
Part 2
「There is no time so I’ll postpone the trial for later For now let’s just decide that Nii-san is guilty」
「The decision is already settled before the trial!? Or rather, I was unconscious until just now though!」
Airi wearing pilot suit was staring coldly Lux as si a new pilot suit retorted back
「Even though ere fighting desperately, younga secret affair with Rosa on the bed This is an unforgivable act……」
Similarly Soffice also retorted expressionlessly in exasperation
「Haa…… Even though the situation is like this, Onii-chan is still like usual……」
Mel who had trace of childishness re her forehead
「Lux-kun I was really worried for you, you know?」
Aeril was sed with dark shadow
「Don’t be too hard on hiuy is also a man so it can’t be helped」
「Yes, there is this popular saying that great reat fondness for sensual pleasures」
「Can you two not adjust casually the truth so it sound like I did it!?」
Lux’s breath was roughening when he retorted to Greyfer and Krulcifer’s uard down like this is also only for a little bit ret behind」
Airi sighed and said that, then she switched the topic
「Lux-chi I still don’t get just what is going on though」
「I only heard fro the bewildered
At present, this facility of Avalon──Shelter that had the function as healing as relaxation facility beca Aeril’s authority
The members were Aeril and Aldom camp were Krulcifer, Philuffy, Celis, and the Triad
Froon Paladins were Mel, Greifer, Rosa, and Soffice
Half of the of world revision through the passing of tiht noo hours has passed since Nii-san lost consciousness And then──there is practically no other Drag-Knight Everyone stop fighting and hide at the surrounding」
「──Eh?」
Lux was perplexed hearing Airi’s sentence
The battle in this Ancient Forest was done between the caainst Azure Division
However in this situation where Alhting to end was──
「The Sacred Eclipse is ra if it’s ally or eneot defeated by the princess」
Krulcifer saw Lux fighting Lisha and fro of world revision
The i his life in order to save Krulcifer overlapped hat she was seeing That scene became the impetus and she recovered her memory
She picked up Lux as shot down, then she joined up for the moment with Alma and Aeril, and also with Rosa, Soffice, Mel, and Greifer, the elites of Seven Dragon Paladins
Even so the Drag-Knights of New Kingdo, but Raffi lost herself and began attacking both sides Because of that the situation changed
「After that, because da the situation under control We traveled to everywhere in Ancient Forest and told theo hide Fortunately it ended with only few casualties」
The nature of Raffi who fused with Sacred Eclipse was changing along with her mental state
It was just like Lux expected, her fate was to transform into a monster that would lead the world into ruin
「I finally understood Why is Lux-kun pretend to lead a fictive organization like Azure Division and try to destroy the New Kingdo from the result, Raffi applied Baptism to the h the binding of perception manipulation, but perhaps there was none of them who noticed Raffi’s abnormality until the end
In order to redom’s enemy on the surface
「……but」
Lux looked doith a dark expression
In the end, he didn’t succeed
He lost against Lisha in the last battle, and like this──
「-……! Wait, Lishsama is」
「Calm down Lux-kun She is safe──for now at least」
With how Lisha wasn’t present at this place, itof world revision
「Even Queen Raffi is opening up her heart only to Lisha who is her step daughter it see her But, there is no more time We have to──save her」
「Yes……」
Lux nodded at Celis’s words
He understood what he had to do no matter what
He had to head to Lisha as most likely at Raffi’s side and destroyed Sacred Eclipse
In other words──he had to finish Raffi who became a monster
Before Lisha was harmed by Raffi who co that he would end up directly confronting Lisha as still underdue to perceptionAuto strength consisted of quite the lineup but, they were greatly exhausted and couldn’t display even half of their true strength
(In the end, can in in our current state? Against that Sacred Eclipse, and Lishsama──)
It would be hard
Or rather, wasn’t it impossible?
In the worst case he wanted to at least rescue Lisha froo to Sacred Eclipse’s side and then returned back without haro of Raffi as fixated to her step daughter was re
And then, the current him also couldn’t use the power of Baptis that, Krulcifer quietly came to in front of him
「Lux-kun I’m sorry to ask you this in this kind of time but──can I ask you to decide?」
「…………」
「Weill we fight or escape? Perhaps ill be able to escape But──if we do that then on’t be able to return to this Ancient Forest any bro will ot a bad news here, Grand Force was taken away just a little while ago As soon as this battle is over──no, if Fugil head to Garden after this, there won’t be anyone who can stop the world revision」
Lux held his breath in shock at Greifer’s words
If Fugil decided that this battle was over and activated the seven Ruins in parallel with Avalon, a world revision in its complete form would start
If that happened, then this tiet
Even the fact that this battle occurred
And about Lisha as devoured and absorbed by Sacred Eclipse too
「…………」
Since just now Lux was unable to answer those questions
Even though he had understood the answer froh he had decided that there was no path of withdraithout saving Lisha
With his current self, he didn’t feel like he would be able to win against those two
「Can everyone──, leave h those weren’t the words that he wanted to say
Even though he who started this battle had to be the one to unite everyone
「──Okay Let’s allow Lux-kun to rest His stamina also still hasn’t co from Lux’s expression and told everyone that
「But Nii-san, there is no ht──if it’s not decided in around ten ive athered people moved to the adjacent room
Lux sat on the bed and stared fixedly to one point on the silver wall
「What──should I do?」
He should have resolved hiht against Lisha, as he unable to use the Baptish he was thinking that it would be just what he wanted if he was defeated after giving his all, even though he had asked for help fro hi at this point of time?
『You cannot even be aware of your oeakness You only avert your eyes fro that you can’t hen you don’t even fight──as expected from the Weakest Undefeated』
The words that the illusion of Singlen inside his consciousness told hilen told hie inside Lux
「Lishsama I──」
The feords that leaked out weren’t heard by anyone else
Part 3
「Haa, haa……! How is the situation at present, Fugil?」
「I patrolled around the『Center』 area but…… The result of this war is as good as decided already」
The Center of Avalon Inside the rooears rotating, Raffi was lying down on a simple bed
Her dress was tattered There was no wound on her body, but her whole body rapped in a sense of lethargy
She unleashed the power o Sacred Eclipse that fused with her and her consciousness cut off when she was in the
What’s more it wasn’t just for several minutes but for hours
When she noticed there was only the Auto a certain mission when Lux was defeated by Lisha
The ements for the objective that Raffi would carry out after this
Azure Division continued to escape while carrying the Grand Force, but two Auto their radar and secured the crystal
The Gear Leader who doainst Yoruka
Sied the third Ruin Ark, La Cruche was defeated and destroyed by Rosa
The Gear Leader that as, Er Fajura was destroyed by Philuffy and Lux
The Gear Leader that ed the sixth Ruin Garden, Clan Lieze was destroyed by Lux when he took back Aeril and Grand Force
The Gear Leader that ed the seventh Ruin Moon, Re Plica was destroyed by Soffice
「So our reth is also not many……」
If Arshalia of the Ruin nu Automata was only two
The Gear Leader of the second Ruin Dungeon, Lu Caria and, the Gear Leader of the fourth Ruin Hall, Nei Louches
A considerable time was necessary to repair the Gear Leaders once dom which was Celis and Philuffy were also defeated Krulcifer apparently dispelled the binding in her consciousness and sided with Lux
「The enehly prepared, they resisted until this far──as expected froo」
Fro near Lisha, Raffi confirmed that the leader of Azure Division was Lux as expected
The recovery of the stolen Grand Force had succeeded, and Fugil was going to the Garden to set it back
If the system of the Ruins was revived, it would beco Uroboros once more
After that they would only need to carry it out in this Center without being obstructed by anyone
「So it will take soy for Uroboros to execute world revision is charged」
「Yes── Please leave the security to the Automatas」
「I can feel rest assured with that More ihter──?」
Raffi kept lying dohile her right hand powerlessly reached out to empty air
「She followed your order and headed out to attack the enemy It see the authority of the Lord Aeril Arcadia The binding in Princess Lisha’s consciousness isn’t dispelled even after her battle against Lux She is our side’s ally」
The Gear Leader of Avbalon Arshalia said that
Then tension left Raffi’s whole body in relieve
「I see So they escaped to there…… Then, I too have to go there」
「No──, the rehter」
「I have to go exactly because of that」
Raffi shook her head slightly in respond to what Arshalia pointed out
