Prologue

The sound of ainst each other sounded froer zone

But he did not relax his foot on the accelerator that had reached its limit

”Gu”

A stone hit the hel his vision The screen of dust obstructed his sight Layfon's vision remained clear thanks to Felli's flake and the vision-aid syste at full speed in front of Layfon Though the sound was a bit far, the sudden increase in voluh to add more pressure and impatience to Layfon

He looked at the rear e city was reflected in the mirror that was coated with a screen of dust It was a shape Layfon had seen before It had s that differed from Zuellni's

Grendan

He found it i back on the previous battle and how that filth monster died Only one Military Artist could execute that feat in Layfon's mind

The Queen, Alsheyra Almonise

She could do it She who far exceeded all Heaven's Blade successors But for Grendan which was unrelated to the Queen's consciousness, why did it keep chasing this side?

”damn!”

Heto capture the Haikizoku, and the Haikizoku was inside Nina Nina said so herself What would Savaris do to her? Had he the skill to extract the Haikizoku from her? If so, why did he wait till now?

Or was he waiting for the city to sink into a crisis?

Layfon heard that a Haikizoku was born from a city's hatred and stubbornness At that time, the Haikizoku answered Dinn's intense wish to protect the city It did not originate fro inside Zuellni and was called forth by Dinn's will And now this thing was inside Nina Right now, the city was in a crisis Changes ht have come to Nina's body

”Felli The Captain Is she OK?”

” I' you I don't quite know the situation of the city”

Is that true or false? But even though the anger rose in Layfon, he could not just quietly push it down Even if he knew of Nina's situation, he could do nothing He should concentrate on solving the proble swayed by his concern of the city Hesitation reh his heart had uaranteed him when he left Zuellni that she'd protect Leerin He was truly happy, so happy that his sadness due to what she said before, ”I can't support you”, had disappeared

”I won't let you!”
