Vol 6 Chapter 5 (2/2)
On the day when his deed was exposed, he kept e looked at hiazes He had done all he could His shoulders slu hiret and resent
”Reproaching yourself is the sa others That's what I think, so rather than reproaching yourself, why not just strive forward?”
”I see”
”Nina should have a lot of people that you worry about? You must lift your spirits for their sake!”
”ThatYeah!” Nina so back yet For the sake of this” She must save Myath
”I feel like you're the hero of a story,” Leerin s the world from pollutants
The tense at different people's proble now is like what a hero would do!”
”My personality isn't that good”
”Personality has nothing to do hether so can be done”
”PerhapsBut I' Nina was stubborn The two of them finally arrived at the center of the Mechanical Department
”This is”
Wrapped in thick planks, it looked like a small hill
”It's similar to the one in my city Leerin, has Myath recovered?”
She checked the bird
”Still weak”
The bird still couldn't stand It could only move its beak Was it because the supply of Selenium had been cut off? Anyway, they must put it back quickly
”Yes,” Leerin nodded and headed for the hill Nina grabbed hold of her sleeve
”Uh?”
”Come out!” Nina restored her Dite to stand before Leerin
”What a shock!” Someone appeared from the shadow, and Leerin's eyes widened
”Thanks to you, my clones have returned to the Aurora Field”
The man wore the mask of a beast He felt different fro was clear His eyes contained within theht shone in the depth of the mask
”I see I can't defeat you people if I don't strike the real body?”
”That's the drea sonasis really is a coward”
”Military Artists are not allowed to be cowards? That's unfair, the weakness of this world”
”What did you say?”
”Military Artists are people given the fate of warHave you ever asked why? What's the difference between the strong stringed by fate and the weak? It is as if your fate is already planned by others And you've never doubted?”
”Don't teotiation collapses No need to teret your ignorance”
His blade was like a saw It wasn'tLeerin felt an evil air froreenish color remained on Nina's face
”The Haikizoku works for its own purpose The collapse of the power balance must be painful!”
”You”
”Isn't it natural to use what you have?”
The man moved Leerin failed to catch histo crash into a tube
”Nina!”
”Stay back,” Nina shouted
Leerin retreated She still had Myath with her, so the ure disappeared as the noise of fighting sounded from every direction
(But if this continues)
Myath was still weak It ht die if Leerin didn't take it back into the place, but she couldn'ton She didn't kno Nina did it, but Nina continued to fight
”What should I do”
Myath was losing its body heat Leerin controlled herself She must find a chance to close the distance
”No” she breathed in deeply She must not let the man win With Leerin's physical condition, it was impossible for her to run this distance The life in her hand was trickling away She looked for a sign of life in Myath's ge that she couldn't comprehend
”ThisWhat is this?” But Leerin saw it She saw it As if she was looking through a looking glass – Nina But the sound of fighting continued in the Mechanical Department Nina shouldn't be reflected in Myath's eyes
”ThisWhat is this?”
Soirl with long hair
”What's going on?”
(HaikizokuAn Electronic Fairy) The voice sounded in Leerin's ears She looked around but didn't see anyone
(The power of hatred for filth monsters ith the power to protect This balance has been broken when the filth monsters drew near)
HaikizokuThe man with the ainst filth monsters? So the Haikizoku in Nina wants to destroy her body because it knows filth ht the Wolf Faces instead Was that the reason that the balance was lost?
(Yes)
Leerin didn't say anything but so, Myath?”
Myath was the only choice
(Yes)
A weak voice that did not belong to a male or a female A neutral voice
(Two Electronic Fairies are inside Nina One is the Haikizoku The other is a nor the power of the Haikizoku And that is the balance that enables Nina to control it But the Haikizoku's power increased when it sensed the nearness of filth monsters)
”What should I do?”
(You must calm the Haikizoku)
”How?”
”This is connected to your life Keep at it!”
Called by that strong voice, Myath answered weakly (Pray!)
”Huh?”
(You hold the En of Grendan No, you hold the En of the other Electronic Fairy that Grendan has hidden You're rare Your prayer can calm the Haikizoku)
”Then, what?”
Grendan had hidden an Electronic Fairy Leerin didn't know
(Pray Pray to the hidden Electronic Fairy The prototype of all Electronic Fairies)
”Pray How?”
No answer She could only hear the sound of fighting and Nina's pain Any infor past It was said that prayer could increase one's faith Anything else was just an individual's wish Hoping the day would sail by smoothly and peacefully was only a person's wish It was useless if other people didn't think so Saying anything in everyday words was less if she didn't make a wish to a God or any other supernatural entities Even so, Myath had told her to ”pray!”
”U surfaced in her mind except for her wish for Nina to win and the Haikizoku to calm down
(But who do I pray to?)
Myath mentioned the hidden Electronic Fairy, but as it? Leerin hadn't theIn Grendan? She recalled the beast she saw on the night when Gahard attacked her and Derek That was probably Grendan's Electronic Fairy
”If that was Grendan, then there really is an Electronic Fairy I'm unaware of”
Because it had hidden itself, it wouldn't easily show itself before people
(Now that I remember it, Synola senpai was there too?)
She chased the flittinghow she had fainted and woken up with Derek beside her Was Synola senpai with her when she fainted?
(AH?!)
It seemed Synola and Savaris knew each other Leerin didn't think it'd be so easy for a Heaven's Blade successor to so easily tell her of his mission Then as Synola there?
(Ah)
Reflexive thinking took her down thesurfaced in her mind
(Why, why did I cry at that time?)
Leerin had lost her way after the entrance cererass As she watched Synola, tears spilled down her cheeks It wasn't sadness, but a feeling threatened to burst out of her chest
(What was that?)
What was it? She
- Let th then!
”Ah?”
- But please don't forget
”Who are you?”
- Because that ain
”Why?”
- Because, it's near
Leerin's consciousness went empty the next moment
Nina kneeled at the intensity of the Wolf Face's attack
”Uh”
”For someone who can't control her Kei vein, you've worked hard in this fight!”
”This is nothing!”
”This will of yours to fight against the Haikizoku is worthy of praise”
More voices from the Wolf Faces
”But will alone can't take you any higher We'll cut you down here!”
”As if!” Nina stood up and readied her iron whips The weight she was used to in her hands turned painful In the next htened tremendously It appeared the power inside Nina was unstable The iron whips turned heavy againProof of the instability of her Internal Kei system It was hard to move with this much pain in her
The Haikizoku was inside her, and Zuellni was losing its control in suppressing the Haikizoku The strength of a Haikizoku caainst filth monsters If Nina's as any weaker, she'd have ended up as Dinn
The Wolf Face man remained inert He wasn't that far from the center of the Mechanical Depart for her to take him down
”I can't lose here!”
She must return to Zuellni where Layfon and everyone were Zuellni A place where she had things she had to do and wanted to do
”No ht with a purpose wouldn't want to lose,” the Wolf Face htly and blocked Nina's assault His saw-like blade slashed at her left leg She kept her distance froainst a wall And her condition was far from her best (damn!) She forced herself to stand up as she pressed down the despair in her The pain in her left leg restricted her movement She stretched her hand She kneasn't easy to win against the Haikizoku And that fight with it was preventing her froainst this Wolf Face th that hardly ht hold of her since the for sense of determination and resolution to dispel that despair and fear
”This is all I have”
How could she stop this reality? Nina stood up To lose her heart and fall – That wasn't permitted!
Who wouldn't permit it? Nina herself
”Aaaaaaah!” she howled and stood up again
The Wolf Face hadn'tdoith his sword
And-
”Uh?”
”What?”
They both felt it and they both turned their gazes away fro, but her eyes watched so had appeared at the line of Leerin's sight
What was that?
What was that?
”What?”
That attraction exuding from Leerin wasn't that of Kei That presence was hidden from others
”WhatYou, can you be”
So had deeply shaken the Wolf Face ”I knew itThis isn't a joke Ignasis knows you So that's why? For a normal person, a non-Military Artist, to appear here That's why!?” Wolf Face said to the invisible presence
”” The presence remained silent The air tre behind Leerin
Nina recalled this was the Military Artist ith Leerin in the canteen
”It's not everyday that I get to head outside the city, but I can't do what I want Besides, I just caht”
Why did he appear? Thisat Nina and the Wolf Face man without a hint of surprise Obviously, he wasn't surprised at Leerin's condition either Was he observing theht I could let you go if you don't mean to hurt her, but that person said I can't In truth, I don't care about the fate of this city”
He was looking at what couldn't be seen Had he seen it? It appeared he had so of it
”A Heaven's Blade successor?”
”Excuse me I'm Savaris Qaulafin Luckens,” Savaris smiled at the Wolf Face man as he introduced himself
(A Heaven's Blade?)
He was the same as Layfon? Why was he here?
”To expose yourself here It's indeed an incomprehensible situation, but I did anticipate it,” Savaris continued ”You're under Ignasis The first Luckens fought you too The first of end, but for some reason, my family is unexpectedly plain That, I really hate!” A s on Savaris's face ”GeezI want to say I'lad to be here If I hadn't heard of the story of the first Luckens, I wouldn't have taken that person's order so seriously The residence of monsters I wouldn't have taken it so seriously!”
Savaris vanished
”Uh-”
Savaris had his hand around the Wolf Face's neck as he lifted him off the floor The Wolf Face flailed his sword at his attacker, but Savaris blocked it with his bare hand The blade shattered into pieces, leaving the handle intact Layfon had also used this skill before, but Savaris did it with his bare hand The Kei from this Heaven's Blade successor battered Nina If the Wolf Face was likened to a solid wall, then Savaris was a typhoon
”Tell Ignasis,” he declared with laughter ”He can't ith this boring style of fighting”
Nina averted her gaze the next moment as the sound of shattered bones assaulted her eardruth of those who are truly powerful”
The sound of soaze back to the fight, the body of the Wolf Face one
”Ah~ they can't die That ru at the floor He then turned his gaze to Nina ”You I saw you when you suddenly appeared I see A fight that we can't get involved with but is nevertheless connected to us really does exist The First of Luckens didn't lie”
”YouAre you really a Heaven's Blade successor?”
”Yes!” he nodded
”I knew about you! That'sRigzario You got infor” Ainto the air in a sudden An icy gaze accompanied his smile ”Did you hear this from other Heaven's Blades? If it's Layfon, then that's another matter”
She must hide the truth If this er
”It seees in Nina's expression
”Hu in your Kei is now back?”
”Aa-? Ah” Now she did realize her body felt normal
”This means the Haikizoku inside you has been suppressed This person is the origin of all Electronic Fairies All Electronic Fairies listen to her, and that includes the Electronic Fairy that has goneher to the floor ”You knew Layfon, so you must be a student at Zuellni! Then please convey to hi to Zuellni to take over the job of the Mercenary Gang My purpose is to bring back the Haikizoku – no matter the means”
”What did you say?”
”To the thing inside you,” he stood next to her, took hold of her head with his hand and lifted her up Eyes that see The presence of unrestrained violence sed her
”I'll kill you if you fell so far like a worer needthat power!” he released her Nina felt the strength inside her being sucked away Embarrassed by her defeat, she heard Savaris say ”Not interested any behind Leerin as staring at an empty space as if time had stopped
”Please convey my words to Layfon,” Savaris said and left
”Eh?”
What did she do?
”Ah? That” She couldn't recall anything except for the feeling that so of whichUh? When did I get here?” She had no idea why she was spacing out in the Mechanical Depart was in it A feeling A feeling of war wet fell on her hands
”What?” Her face et too
”Why, why ashe couldn't lose Very i shook Leerin's entire body Everything else around her vibrated
”Ah”
Green light exuded from the tubes in the Mechanical Department as the vibration hit the air It felt like blood was circulating around Leerin Orange light flooded the botto!”
The City's er presented by filth reat!” She wanted to share this happiness with With whom? She couldn't remember
Nina had hidden herself to watch Leerin ”Memory lossthe same as Layfon?”
But this felt different to Layfon's situation back then Leerin's mission was the sa?”
Leerin wasn't a Military Artist Her fate was too cruel ”The AlcheiosDid the world become like this because of theios that nobody knew about Perhaps Nina was now in contact with so from the past ”But why does Leerin have the sa outside her city However, she possessed so her Savaris too Why was a Heaven's Blade guarding Leerin? Did she have sos remain unresolved!” Nina shook her head
No tih ”Time to head back?” She felt dizzy as her consciousness left Myath
”A taken to another city to continue her fight with the Wolf Faces? Dixerio, the person who sent her on this path, was he fighting sos I must do”
She must return Everyone would worry about her if she continued to re Besides, she was still concerned with how much the Haikizoku had affected Zuellni's Mechanical Department If the effects reer
”And Layfon Hehimself!”
She needed the reassurance ”Head back”
The strong will that cahts
”Can Leerin really be?”
Nina's figure disappeared from Myath as she finally realized her suspicion
