Vol 9 Epilogue (1/2)

Epilogue

Waves were lapping against a white beach

As part of the landing party arriving at Midgard on s here for their collaborator to converge

All the other units had set off to subjugate the Academy's various facilities

One member of the team, Kunato Ktinos, looked up at the clock tower beyond the tropical forest and wiped sweat off his brow

Did his other teammates not mind the summer heat? With robotic and e the vicinity

How eerie, but he feared that his own expression probably resembled theirs too

Mist shrouded hishis consciousness in a daze Only particularly sharp when it came to matters related to coish in emotions

Harboring a premonition that he would even lose the ability to have such thoughts, he pondered about the person they were about to meet

Major Loki had called this person the last piece of the puzzle for Sleipnir

But to be honest, Kunato found it difficult to iine someone whose talents could rival Mononobe Yuu and John Hortensia

At the current stage, the newcomer should be excluded if he or she would compromise Sleipnir's level of completion

Kunato thought this matter-of-factly

He had not realized that this thought itself was already abnormal

However, thethem, he knew that his worries were redundant

Walking along the beach, the sound of her footsteps made Kunato's spine tremble

That sharp gazedifficult

”She” was exuding acute killing intent fro him with fear

”Ah, so you guys are Sleipnir I see now Good enough to serve as limbs”

The one who appeared before hiirl

Dressed in Midgard Acade at the aze

The instant that gaze looked at hi to her

Despite her lofty attitude, he did not feel offended

She was si as matter-of-fact

They had come here to act as her limbs Kunato believed without hesitation

”—Here”

Kunato took a step forward and gave her the red capsule that Major Loki had handed to him

”Thanks”

She thanked Kunato and stared at the capsule

Sharp as a blade, her aura and expression was shaken for htly hesitant

”—Sorry, Mononobe-kun”

But after a h to firm up her willpower, she sed the capsule

In that instant, Kunato felt as though his consciousness and senses had expanded dranizant of ere blindspots to himself This was probably what the other tea that their senses were now shared, Kunato treht now, Sleipnir was definitely complete as a ”collective”

”Well then, let's move out”

The girl started walking Kunato and the others followed silently

Li, absolute obedience requiring neither questioning nor confirmation

Next, the ed as one, moved on the offensive

Towards the clock tohere ”Gray” aiting—

”Okay, let's go—Everyone”

I announced, looking back and forth across the girls who had gathered in the living rooe in the cavern

I had told the, what her ”heart” was seeking

Then I asked for their help For the sake of what I had to do next
