After Uchiha Kaede stepped out of the door with one foot, a voice came from behind him.

"Do you want to continue?"

Uchiha Kaede turned around in astonishment and looked at Beatrice suspiciously.

"What?"

"Do you want that technique in the future?"

"That's it. Belch...... Isn't it harmful to the body? It's all in shambles. ”

"I'm talking about the technique."

……

……

……

Silence, there was silence inside the room, and if you listened carefully, you could even hear the wind outside.

Back in the house, Uchiha Kaede pinched his waist, leaned forward, and put his face as if it was imprinted on Beatrice's face, and his snort could ask for the fragrance of the girl's body, and the scorching breath slowly slapped rhythmically on the faces of both parties.

Shocked by the sudden attack, Beatrice was stunned for a half-beat, then her cheeks turned crimson, her ears were stained with paint, and she suddenly raised her little hand in annoyance.

Uchiha Kaede flew out like a balloon, it was supposed to be like this.

But—after Beatrice raised her hand, Uchiha Kaede, who had an incomparably superior reflex nerve, easily took a step to the side and dodged it.

Surprise came over the girl's cute face, but then a monstrous rage ensued.

"Dead and dead!"

Waves of mana rippled through the room.

Uchiha Kaede bent down slightly, and he brushed past the majestic invisible attack.

The graceful and unhurried response made the sender of the attack even more angry, and the mentality of punishing this thief and hateful bastard was even stronger.

Like a machine gun, blasting air flew out one after another. However, despite this, the books behind the girl, countless forbidden books, do not even have the slightest wavering.

"-Al Minya!"

Finally, the rage ushered in its end.

Countless weapons suddenly appeared around Uchiha Kaede, and the dense crowd made people's hearts tremble.

With so many delicate crystals of embodied magic emitting a cold light that was sharper than a blade, Uchiha Kaede had no doubt about their sharpness, and I was afraid that it would be easy to open small holes at both ends of their bodies that allowed them to pass through.

He couldn't help but sigh that this was the gap. He raised his hands to show that he had given up his resistance. The girl snorted coldly and waved her hand to withdraw them.

The air was as unchanged as it had been when it first arrived.

Uchiha Kaede shrugged helplessly and said, "What the hell are you going to do?" Aren't you afraid of damaging your book? ”

"How the hell did you dodge?" Beatrice narrowed her eyes, and a cold light bloomed in them.

"Your eyes betray you, and besides, my eyes can see through the trajectory of magic. You're not going to be angry about that, are you? Uchiha Kaede pointed to his blood-soaked eyes, which had become red at some point, and said rather amusedly.

"It's not going to be!! How could Betty be angry with a tiny creature!! ”

“……”

"What kind of eyes are you!! Want to be in pieces!? ”

Uchiha Kaede waved his hand, looking like he could not hide it, but the smile in his eyes could not be concealed.

Seeing that Lori had a tendency to get angry again, Uchiha Kaede changed his words and changed the topic to something else.

"So, what did you just mean?"

"What?"

"It's a reference to the technique."

"Hmph, why should I tell you?"

"Huh? Then I'm going to find the cat......" Hana, Uchiha Kaede turned and walked outside. A posture like I'm going to sue.

"Wait...... Betty, Betty, that's it. ”

"Just what?" Uchiha Kaede turned his head, his shoulders shaking as if he was suppressing something, but he still had a serious face that couldn't tell the truth.

"I'll just tell you a little bit! It's really a little bit! Beatrice pinched the hem of her gorgeous dress, squirmed, and then continued as if she had broken a jar, "The principle of that enchantment is like a combination of a funnel and a barrel." Excess mana accumulates in the hopper and then flows down the drain into the barrel, but too much mana will overflow the hopper and spread to the outside world. And on the other hand. ”

“……”

"There is a limit to the volume of the barrel, and when it overflows, the pressure on its four walls increases as the height of the mana rises, and if it reaches the upper limit, it ......."

"What will?"

"Ah, nothing. It's just going to leave you scattered on the ground. Well...... One by one. ”

"Uh......" Uchiha Kaede twitched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but sneer, why did you say you gave me such a dangerous thing. No wonder that hateful clown laughed so disgustingly back then!

"Then why is it so painful after contact?"

"Hasn't Betty already explained it clearly? You thought the water in the bucket would disappear into thin air? Beatrice looked impatiently and looked at Kaede Uchiha with disdain, and then she said, "Do you still want it?" ”

"Hmm...... Want. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Uchiha Kaede decided to ask for this thing.

There is no power that can be obtained out of thin air, and there is no benefit that can be obtained without paying any price. Even if there were, it must be a poisonous pie!

If he was only crushed by the danger that might occur, then Uchiha Kaede would not have been able to stand here at all. I don't know how many life and death crises he has experienced, but the struggle on the battlefield has long made him give up the comfortable psychology in the real world.

Moreover, as a killer in his previous life, he had long lost his sense of life, and living was just living.

There are many people who die at his hands, vicious, like a cancer in the world, there are people who are kind, like righteous partners in the world, there is no shortage of people who work hard and live at the bottom of the world like weeds, innocent, just hearing things that should not be heard and being killed.

Life is like that, and death is like that. Life has long been meaningless. No...... In other words, life is meaningless, it's just that he has lost the motivation to look for it.

However, he still has to live, and only if he is alive and has something to do, he will be relentless in his life.

Saying goodbye to Beatrice, who had been sitting on the bench as if waiting for someone to arrive, Uchiha Kaede returned to the guest room and walked out of Rozval's mansion with white leaves.

I really don't know why he didn't bring his own weapon.

Is it confidence that you can easily defeat everyone at the table, or do you think that they will never turn their backs? Or are you ready to use your own weapons to catch the enemy who attacked you last night?

Nothing is known, just.

Beatrice opened the door to the forbidden library and looked at the black-haired boy who was walking away with a sword scabbard with white leaves in his left hand.

The murmuring echoed through the hallway.

"—is that you......"
