"I always feel mean."

Tie himself to a pillar, Arthur looked up, looked at the ceiling, and suddenly said this.

"Hmph, you're meant to be a very despicable guy."

"......" Arthur looked at the little girl who suddenly appeared in front of him, "It's really a little uncomfortable for you to say that." ”

"Cut~" Ulutia clasped her hands on her chest, leaned against the pillar next to her, and looked at Arthur. "What is your goal?"

"Oh, guess what." Arthur winked at Urutia.

The little girl was stunned, and a hint of blush appeared on her face inexplicably.

"Who cares about you, inexplicable fellow."

"Well...... There is another title for no reason......" Arthur shook his head helplessly, cut the rope on his body, and freed his body.

"Since you're here, then I won't pretend...... Well, if someone asks about me, just say ...... Let's just say I'm dead. ”

A meaningful gaze swept over Ulutia, and Arthur turned his head and walked outside.

"See you later, then, unlovely little girl."

As he spoke, the young man's figure disappeared into the doorway.

Ulutia looked at where he had disappeared, was silent for a moment, and then suddenly sneered.

"Not cute little girl? You're not cute, a man who doesn't know how to be emotional! Ulutia's eyes twinkled, and she muttered.

Suddenly, the girl's eyes froze, and she took out a prop from behind her that exuded a dark aura.

"That girl, is that the person you value? Humph......"

Thinking of the scene where Arthur kissed Elusa, a blush and disgruntled look flashed across Ulutia's face.

The girl's eyes rolled, and a plan had already come to mind.

――――――――――――The weather is good today (drinking tea)――――――――――――

By the time we got outside, the revolt had already begun.

Although because of his own existence, the time is more than half a year earlier than the original book, but the result should not change much.

Thinking like this, Arthur, who had planned to leave the island directly, paused and walked towards the side where the smoke was coming from.

Although he knew that Elusa, one of the protagonists, would not die here, Arthur was still a little worried and involuntarily walked towards the battlefield.

However, this state only lasted for a short time.

When he saw the weapons that filled the sky, Arthur stopped, and after a moment, a chuckle appeared on his lips.

Is the future queen finally starting to take off?

"Since Elusa has awakened magic, it means ......" A hint of gloom flashed across his face, and Arthur lowered his head, "I'm sorry, old man...... I'll remember to incense you. ”

The last condition for the Queen's take-off - Rob's death.

This magician, who contains the will of the fairy, used his life to teach the queen the last and most important lesson.

"I'm getting more and more disgusted with myself like this...... However, I don't regret it. ”

Arthur raised his head and looked at the blue sky: "Old man...... Go all the way. ”

In fact, his own 'death' is also a stimulus to the queen, which is why Arthur told Ulutia so much.

However, Arthur could not ensure that his death would definitely awaken Elusa.

But now...... It's good.

"Uncute little girl, the script has been arranged for you, according to my idea, get the plot back on track."

One last glance at the captivity cell where Ulutia was, Arthur turned his head, took out the flying prop from the collector, jumped up, and quickly flew into the clouds, disappearing into the island.

―――――――――――― lightning and thunder outside, torrential rain, well, the weather is good――――――――――――

An hour after Arthur left.

The girl with long crimson hair dragged her tired body and rushed into the prison cell.

"Arthur ......" was full of hopeful cries, and the girl looked into the middle of the cell, "Gerald? ”

Standing there was not the imaginary Arthur, but a young man with blue hair.

"Ah...... Elusa? ”

Hearing the girl's voice, Gerald turned his head and saw Elusa, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, and she pulled out a slightly evil smile.

An unsettling smile.

Seeing Gerald smiling, I don't know why, Elusa suddenly had a very bad premonition.

But the girl didn't think about it so much, and all her attention was now on Arthur.

She scanned anxiously around, but she didn't see any other figures except bloodstains and Gerald.

"Gerald, what about Arthur?"

Looking at the only person who existed, Elusa looked anxiously at Gerald, hoping it would tell her where Arthur was.

The blue-haired girl looked at Elusa and suddenly smiled.

Hidden in the dark, Ulutia looked at Elusa's anxious expression, and for some reason, her heart became uncomfortable again.

opened her mouth, and the girl spat lightly in her mouth-

"Arthur? That cocky guy? Gerald's mouth uttered the same words as Ulutia.

A sneer rang out, and the boy looked at Elusa, a black aura flashing in his eyes.

"Gerald?" Anger flashed in the girl's eyes, and Elusa shouted at the boy, "What did you say?!" ”

"Didn't you hear clearly?" Gerald smiled, took a few steps closer, came to Elusa's side, looked down, and looked at her, "You should like that guy very much." ”

"Gerald !!"

The guy on the left, the guy on the right, if it weren't for the fact that he was in front of his companion who shared the weal and pain, Elusa would probably face each other directly.

He ...... It's dead. Seeing Elusa's angry expression, Gerald's smile was even happier.

Open your mouth and gently spit out such words from your mouth.

In an instant, Elusa's angry expression froze.

"Y-What did you say?" Trembling all over, Elusa looked at the young man in front of her in disbelief.

"Lie to me, don't you? Gerald? Are you kidding? As soon as he lifted the young man's collar, Elusa's voice became louder and louder, and on her exhausted body, another force came out of nowhere, lifting the young man's whole body.

"Gerald! Tell me, are you kidding! ”

"Heh~" Gerald chuckled, a dark power surged from his body, and he easily broke free from Elusa's control, and grabbed Elusa's neck with one hand, lifting the girl into the air.

"I'm not kidding you, Elusa," a dark glint in Gerald's eyes, "Arthur is dead, dead at my hands...... I killed it with my own hands. ”

“！！！！”

Elusa, who was picked up by the neck, was still struggling, but after hearing Gerald's words, her body suddenly shook violently.

I don't know where the strength came from, the girl broke away from Gerald's hand, the light flashed in her hand, a long sword appeared, gritted her teeth, her eyes flashed with anger, and the girl stabbed at Gerald without hesitation.

It can be seen that Arthur's status in the girl's heart far surpasses these companions, and Elusa, who could not make a move against Gerald in the original book, did not hesitate to swing the sword in her hand for Arthur at this moment.

If you get stabbed, even if you don't die, you will be seriously injured, right?

It's a pity that Gerald, who is bewitched by dark magic at the moment, has also awakened magic, and with the help of darkness, he is more powerful than Elusa, more than a little.

Easily blocking this one, Gerald smiled at the girl, and then waved his hand, and the dark fluctuations turned into a big hand, slapping the girl away.

The girl who was at the end of the crossbow was knocked out without resistance, slammed into the wall, coughed, and a line of blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

"It's too weak...... Is this your realization? Elusa? ”

"Gerald !!"

Gritting her teeth, Elusa's eyes flickered with furious fire.

"Don't be impulsive, if you don't want others to follow in Arthur's footsteps."

“！！！” The sword in her hand was clenched, and Elusa barely controlled her trembling body, preventing herself from swinging the sword directly out of anger.

"You're not enlightened enough, Elusa."

Gerald smiled, looked at the girl who had stumbled away, raised his hand, and looked at the Tower of Paradise behind him.

Escape from what...... It's just the beginning.
