"Hush. "It was another round of fruitless exchanges, and both Ragnar and Terumi retreated to both sides.

"Yo, Ragnar-kun. Terumi shook a chain with her hand. "It's been a lot of progress lately. It's commendable. ”

"Who wants to be praised by a guy like you!" Ragnar roared and greeted him again.

As he was summoned here, Ragnar heard a voice telling him that he only had an hour to go, and that time would disappear as soon as it passed.

At that time, not only will he not be able to protect the little girl behind him, but it is also unknown when he will meet Yuki Terumi next time.

"Stick!" the heavy sword slammed into a chain, and this time Ragnar simply threw down the sword, and a black beast-like creature erupted from his hand and struck Terumi.

"Yes, yes, it's been able to be used to this extent. Yuki Terumi clapped his hands, and a green barrier appeared in front of him, blocking Ragnar's attack.

"Sure enough, without the Ideal Mechanism, Ragnar can't win. At this moment, Ariel, who had woken up from her slumber, resisted the pain in her chest and stood up with the support of a broom.

Ragnar's figure had gradually blurred, and finally gradually disappeared in front of Terumi's eyes.

"Was it a projection?" Hazama, who had put his hat back on, changed to the same squinting look.

"I thought Ragnar-kun was here. But it's not going to be easy for you to do that, little girl. ”

"Less, less verbose. Ariel picked up the gossip furnace and pointed it at Hazama.

But the other party did not give her a chance to strike the final blow.

"Behind, little girl. ”

Ariel no longer had the strength to turn back, still holding the gossip furnace, and Hazama's butterfly knife did not fall in the slightest suspense.

But. At the moment when it touched the body.

Ariel, who had been standing there, turned into a sky of rune paper. Then he flew towards Hazama with a flash of golden light.

The real Ariel suddenly appeared in the sky. Countless daggers were spinning around at a rapid pace.

"What?" Hazama looked up and spotted Ariel in the air. "It's actually a doppelganger. ”

"Phantom burial, phantom murderer in the night mist. ”

Countless red knives shot at Hazama, and golden runes exploded around Hazama.

The final blow. Let's hope it succeeds.

"Yes, little girl. You can actually touch me. ”

Behind.

Turning his head with difficulty, Hazama appeared behind him at some point, wiping a trace of blood from his cheek with his hand.

"But, it's over. ”

There was a heart-piercing pain from behind, and Ariel, who was already exhausted, fell from the sky.

His head was also bleeding from snorting on the rocks.

I've only been living here for less than a few months.

"You're the first little one to touch me?" Hazama picked up his fallen hat. I flicked the ashes and put them back on my head. "So I'm not going to cut you into seventeen pieces. ”

Are you some man with glasses with a switchblade?

Ah, but it's good that I can still complain at this time.

"Anyway, I'm going to help my people clean up, so goodbye?"

Hazama's figure slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave, and Ariel's vision was obscured by the blood left on her head.

Damn, it's clear that the Empire's reinforcements are coming, and he said that he would take care of Little Frei. Obviously, I have to continue to go to school and continue to deal with all kinds of harassment by Annie's pervert.

How can you just take it off here?

They. It's going to be bothersome.

The scene in front of me suddenly switches to another place like a mosaic.

In front of me was a beautiful woman with long blond hair. He was smiling and touching his head.

"Ariel, remember, Mommy loves you very much. ”

By the way, I thought I heard this voice last time.

Is this woman her mother?

A blond man walked up to a teenager and was talking something.

He's Jason!

Why is he here? What does she have to do with herself?

Ariel was just about to ask her mother, who had just spoken to her. But from the hand of his mother who touched his head.

But there was a sharp pain.

———————————————— Cutting ————————————————-

"Well, it's really distressing that there will be no eggs to eat in the future. Hazama threw a butterfly knife at the side. While talking to himself.

Suddenly there was a feeling of great threat behind him.

Even Hazama hurriedly turned to look.

I saw that the little girl who should have died was lying flat and floating in the air at the moment.

Suddenly, a pair of black bony wings grew from her back.

"That's it. Devil's wings?"

The winding air blew Hazama's hat away. Hazama did not dare to be careless. Hurriedly activated the Magic Guide Book of the Firmament.

After growing wings, Ariel, who was lying flat, slowly floated down from the air, her unfocused red pupils staring at Hazama.

"Interesting, funny, such momentum. Hazama excitedly shouted, "It seems to have become more fun." Little girl. Let Uncle Ben see what you're really capable of. ”

But there was only one sentence for the answer.

Ariel's red pupils as if they were about to boil and burn with her hands down.

"Field. The Red City That Never Sleeps. ”

A huge red circle spread out from under Ariel's feet. Surrounded the entire lair.

Immediately after that, Ariel disappeared before Hazama's eyes.

Behind?

Hazama tried to turn around and attack, but found that he couldn't move his body any way anyway.

Moment of Magic!

It was only a split second that Ariel appeared behind Hazama. Then he struck with his bare hands at the chains that Hazama had used to defend himself.

There was an unexpected cracking sound, and a chain was smashed into pieces of iron by Ariel's bare hands.

Hazama, who resumed his operations, realized the danger.

Hurriedly flew the knife into the air.

Two extremely fast snake teeth shot out. But Ariel below didn't dodge in the slightest, and rushed up like that.

Hazama's laughter had turned to horror before he could laugh.

He clearly saw the chains he had sent towards Ariel, and he didn't know when it had missed.

It's impossible, obviously I was facing that direction just now.

It can't be moment magic either.

"You can control your destiny?" shouted Hazama in terror in the air.

But Ariel didn't give him a chance to answer. Instead, he grabbed him by the neck with his hand.

"Crimson Demon. ”

The red circles below suddenly converged.

Then a crimson light enveloped the two of them.

Hazama felt his whole body burn at this point. Even the soul gradually died in the fire.

"Damn. Damn! If it weren't for the fact that Uncle Ben was just a doppelganger. Hazama, who was grabbed by the neck, had a hideous expression. But Ariel was still the same unfocused.

"The demon who controls fate, Uncle Ben remembers you, and below, you just wait for the rest of me to hunt down endlessly. ”

The hazama in his hand was like boiling water, and his soul turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared into the red light.

The red light gradually dissipated, and the black wings disappeared, and Ariel fell from the sky to the ground.
