[Washboard, fog blade is going to ○○○○○ again. 】

"I'll teach him a lesson later, along with the account just now. Lilith, withdraw! ”

Countless ghost hands reached out from the black umbrella, slapping resentfully to disturb the table, and Behemoth chased the black ball at them as they hid in the air. That's when Vabra made a tragic exit.

Losing the last duke with the ability to fly, Kana and Ryuji relied on the climbing skills they had improvised to roam each other's territory.

"It's almost time to finish."

Joshua probed in the direction of the town, where frightening black smoke was rising, and the faint smell of blood seemed to be faint, could the cherubim be in trouble? However, they can fight with peace of mind until now without bothering the people, and it is not because of the barrier set up by the cherubim?

[Mist Blade, you too.] If there is anything to think about, let's think about it after this battle - the cherubim are my own child, and I can see how much the imp has changed in the past few years, and I need not doubt him. 】

After throwing the powerless Yareth to Mitya, who had not participated in the battle, Lilith jumped backwards to shake off Joshua's miasma slam, and with the sting of the miasma enduring by the sting of the miasma, Ryuji broke through, and with the strength of his whole body, broke the remaining three legs of Behemoth.

The heavy body descended to a height of 1,000 tons, like the mud and sand erupted from a geyser, changing the terrain again. Joshua retracted Behemoth, filling the Black Umbrella with immense energy.

The strong miasma that was about to come out, the legion was wiped out in an instant, and Ryuji was also affected, his consciousness retreated, and he seemed to be half-dead and unable to fight.

With this blow alone, the labyrinth fortress was blown away, and the foundation, materials, and composition flew in the air, wanting to fall but being restricted by Joshua's huge miasma, and becoming a hostage in the air.

Even if you are a monster, you may not be able to survive to the end in such a harsh environment.

Lilith was the first to enter the field and struck out the Fist of Orias, the punch that shattered everything was reduced to dust first.

After absorbing our power, the other party did gain more power - Lilith was bitten back, the miasma that flowed into her body, the unfathomable darkness and evil, and it was about to brainwash their dignity - the intervention of the Hope Na opened a new window for the Fog Blade.

The fog blade took over and punched Joshua's face, so that the beautiful face suddenly distorted, and the force also turned the miasma into a blade, and cut the black umbrella, the black umbrella could not withstand the momentum and break, so the wreckage of the labyrinth all fell, causing a blast, and everyone was crushed to death because of this-

"God No Mist Blade!"

The swirling column of miasma swayed a fierce figure. Joshua crawled out of the frenzy before them, and the Fogblade complied with the other party's wishes, giving up observation and making up for another punch-

"Coming out?"

“————”

Obviously, he had already attacked at the moment when Joshua lost his mind and yelled, but instead the misty blade became the target of the opponent's attack, and the stomach was really hit with a harder flying knee - by the way, didn't Kina and Lilith just say it......

This guy has a cunning character that deliberately exposes weaknesses during the fight, but in fact, it is to make the opponent slack-

"Yes...... Damn ......"

"-Can you still talk?"

When the Fogblade is kicked to eye level with Joshua, Joshua shows his ill-intentioned side.

“…… That being said, you've already exhausted your strength, right? They will punch and kick me, which is the best proof of this. ”

A flying fist hit the handsome face of the crooked fog blade, causing him to fall dozens of meters away—he was first grabbed by Joshua in the palm of his hand, and picked up his collar—and then shocked by the power of the sky, it was Longa!

The strong momentum broke them apart, but Kana didn't wait to ignore it, caught up with Joshua head-on, hugged each other tightly, what did he mean by this, Fogblade no longer doubted.

"Mist Blade, attack with me!"

With his nearly dislocated right hand, the Mist Blade turned Lilith's miasma into a sharp blade and pierced into the hearts of Kyona and Joshua—and at the same time, Joshua saw this and activated the miasma to devour the Mist Blade and Kyona. This guy still has this hand!

In short, that's the battle – it's Mitya's victory.

The black-haired figure leaping from the fog blade didn't think much of reaching out to touch Joshua's miasma, and in an instant, the miasma was purified, and the world was as quiet as it was still, but that was just Mitya's responsibility as the first witch.

Joshua's miasma was forcibly lifted because of Mitya, and she had no strength left, so she could only watch her former benefactor stunned and disrupt the battle, and the misty blade and the longitudina fell into each other's arms, and the last thing to see was that Mitia gave Joshua the final blow.

--

It is already the end of the war, and now there is a shortage of troops, wounded soldiers, and even a food crisis.

The twelfth generation of Ephraim's family has been suffering from no male children.

If we don't think of a way at this time, the Ephraim family will not only have to face a famine and die in battle, but even if they survive smoothly, our clan may become a tool of production in other countries.

The issue of war and survival, in which there was little hope and could not be won, became the only choice for the Ephraims.

There is a third possibility. My father and my four older sisters. ”

Two days ago, Joshua, who had just reached adulthood and had reached the age of ten, boldly put forward his opinion without thinking about it, after looking at the map in his hand and confirming the only remaining troops of our army.

"Joshua, don't be kidding. War is not child's play, you have never been on the battlefield, for this knowledge is given to you in adulthood, just a few days of study, what is the basis for what you say? ”

The father dismissed Joshua without saying a word, looking at his deep eyes, it was obvious that his father was actually very disappointed in his current self.

When the heavy responsibility of the clan falls into his own hands, and he is unable to take charge, he can only watch the decline and demise of the family bit by bit, so the father hopes that these children of their direct blood can turn the situation around for him.

Soldiers, strategies, schedules, and all kinds of war-related knowledge were entrusted to the four sisters without reservations, and the Ephraim family must not be buried in the torrent of time and history casually.

"I have no basis, but—if my father won't trust me and my sisters, why do you want us to be your strength?"

"This ......"

For a while, my father was speechless, so here is the eldest sister who asks:

"Since you can offer your own opinion, Joshua, you might as well talk about your third possibility."

"Win this war."

This sentence had just been uttered, and everyone was speechless. It should be a very serious scene, and Joshua brought it up without a smile, but her sisters laughed so much that her cute face was crooked.

"Joshua, are you serious?"

Seeing that Joshua remained silent, her father began to realize her intentions.

"The enemy's total strength is now more than 100 times ours, and I won't mention weapons and ammunition, even if you don't look at these, their resources and territory are still far superior to ours."

The implication is that even if we don't fight head-on, a war of attrition can still make our side cornered.

"But as long as we can win this war, those resources will be ours."

"That's right, what's your best idea? Joshua, you are the last child of me and your mother, and she has always sacrificed her life in the hope that you, who were born in the early days of the war, can live well and grow up safely. ”

"My father has mentioned this to me many times, but I am also aware of it, so I am standing here. And you don't need to hide it, in fact, my mother didn't leave because of a difficult birth. ”

Joshua, who has a keen intuition, discovered this as early as when she was five years old, and the reason why she didn't break it was because she was not aware enough at that time, but now there is a chance for her to reverse it, and any past and pain should be saved.

"Father, this war is an opportunity. If this war can be won by my tactics, then you must tell me the truth about the past. ”

The father thought for a moment, and finally made this decision:
