Right now.

"Hahaha......"

A long, low, lonely, almost mournful laugh rang out.

All eyes gathered.

Sakel raised his head and took a step forward, stepping into the range of the firelight.

But it was also at that moment that everyone was stunned.

I saw the former watchman of the royal guard, the terrible knight of punishment, Sakel laughed under his breath and staggered.

But this is far from a reason to surprise them.

I don't know when Saker, who is tough and invincible, has burst into tears.

"You are very clever, Your Highness," Sakel's voice was choked and hoarse, his chest trembling, his red eyes fixed on Tails:

"It's even too smart. ”

He slowly raised the blade of his axe.

This made the rest of the people subconsciously wait.

"You know that in this gloomy dungeon, you will not be lucky to be targeted by me, so you give up force, no longer run away, and no longer use your forbidden powers, but resort to political maneuvers. ”

Tails was slightly surprised.

Sakel's voice was hoarse, full of despair and sorrow, like a wounded man who has lost his last hope.

"You know my relationship with these people, so you deliberately let them out and confront them against me, observe them, gather intelligence, and look for opportunities in dormancy and preparation. ”

He glanced past one by one, looking at each member of the guard with painful and conflicting eyes.

"From the time we met to the present, you seem to be running away in disarray, weak, but in fact you are pressing forward step by step, from Semir to Barney to Naki, your side knocks and pushes have brought you closer and closer to the truth of the year little by little—until you caught my weakness, the thing I cared about. ”

Sakel said, looking around and smiling bitterly with tears in his eyes.

"I ......" Tails opened his mouth to speak, but found himself speechless.

When!

There was a crunch.

Sakel's axe blade falls to the ground.

At this moment, under the eyes of everyone, Saqel finally showed a rare tiredness and old age.

Just like before, he was still alone, standing in opposition to everyone else.

Take one against eight.

But now......

Sakel lifted his eyes.

Can ...... now

The plural figures in front of him gradually blurred, and finally focused on the young and embarrassed, but calm and inexplicable figure in the front.

Sakel looked at Tails quietly, a smile of bitterness and melancholy in his tears.

I don't know when it started......

It's already a one-on-one.

Sakel sighed inwardly and withdrew his gaze from his former colleagues.

They are no longer criminals who have been imprisoned for a long time or are on the run in fear.

Instead, it became the proudest existence again.

...... of the Kingdom of the Stars

The Supreme Royal Guard

At this moment, Sakel didn't know why he couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes, and he didn't know why he couldn't fill the hole in his heart.

He just stared at Tails in front of him stupidly.

If he wasn't that taboo existed......

That's good.

Sakel's figure flickered in the air, steady.

"You sincerely and ruthlessly press the truth, drive them into a desperate situation one by one, reveal their true nature, and dig out the details that are most worthy of your exploitation. ”

The more Sakel spoke, the more anxious he became, and his expression became more and more heavy and desperate.

"Then, like a savior saint, you use your special status as a shining star to give them forgiveness and relieve them of their burdens. ”

"More importantly......"

"You have become a spiritual pillar in their hearts, completely tying yourself to them. ”

Tails felt bitter in his heart.

He could only force himself not to look at the expressions of the people around him.

Sakel took a deep breath and stared desperately at Tails with a complicated expression at the moment:

"You're more than just a prince for them to meet for the first time. ”

The Knight of Punishment continued:

"You are the mourner of Naki and Nai, the pardoner of the criminal, the comforter of the prisoners, the prince of the stars they recognize, and the noble one who is willing to take the risk to uncover the misunderstanding for me. ”

"If I kill you, I'll destroy them all—physically and mentally. ”

Sakel covered his tears and smiled bitterly in an uncontrollable tremor:

"But it all seems so logical, I can't fault it at all - hahaha. ”

Tails sighed:

Saqel ......

But the Knight of Punishment would not give him a chance to speak.

"Just now, when I was a wicked person, I could have beaten them to the bone without hesitation, and then killed you. ”

Sakel lowered his arms and said this with a ferocity that made the rest of the group nervous.

"I can bear their hatred as a wicked person afterwards. ”

"I can live like that, I can die like that, I've been like that for eighteen years!"

"Eighteen years!"

Sakel roared under his breath.

His crumbling body seemed to be unable to hold it anymore and fell backwards, leaning against the wall.

There was a sad silence in the dungeon.

Sakel's expression slowly darkened.

"But you didn't say to me the words you just said, the words you said in your justification for me. ”

"You're telling them that. ”

Sakel looked up at each of his colleagues.

For some reason, everyone who was swept by his eyes had an indescribable tingling sensation.

"You have cleared me of my sins, you have made them respect me again, and more importantly, you have turned these feelings of theirs into weapons against me. ”

The Knight of Punishment's voice grew bitter and sounded like a pleading.

"Because you know, from this moment on, when what I see in their faces is no longer hatred for traitors, but apologies and respect for their superiors......"

Sakel leaned against the wall, gesturing at his chest and then at his head, breathing intermittently.

"And you know, that's my biggest weakness. ”

Sakel stared sadly at the blade of the axe at his feet, raised his mouth to the sky, and let out a painful roar in his throat.

"You know, in the face of them like this...... I can't do it anymore......"

Tails looked at each other in a daze.

Be rendered speechless.

"But why. ”

The dying Knight of Punishment took a sharp breath, as if regaining his energy:

"If you don't uncover it all, if you don't pursue the truth......"

"That may ......"

At that moment, Sakel looked at the body on the ground, at little Barney, and his face showed endless sadness:

"Maybe Naki and Nai will still be alive, breathing. ”

"And Barney, he still hates me, not his father, not the king. ”

Sakel closed his eyes.

Barney Jr. turned his head, trying not to look at him.

Cannon took a painful breath and dropped his weapon as well.

The atmosphere became quite uncomfortable.

Tails felt the weight of his chest heavier than ever, and if he didn't say anything more, it was going to explode.

"I'm sorry, I'm ...... about Naki and Nai"

But when the boy finished speaking, he was interrupted again.

I saw Sakel clasp his head tightly with one hand, twisting his cheeks in pain:

"I don't know, I really don't know, what you said to them, the words that comforted them, including the words that you were willing to reveal your identity to me, and even the self-disclosure of your identity, are they the truth from the bottom of your heart, or the hypocrisy with ulterior motives?"

"Are you trying to save them, or are you saving yourself?"

Tails froze.

Sincerity, hypocrisy?

Save others, save yourself?

Tails was distracted for a moment.

"Maybe," the young man felt an indescribable sense of loneliness for some reason:

"Maybe a little bit. ”

Sakel's gasping became more and more intense.

It's like he's sick again.

"Hahaha, lurking in the shadows, testing weaknesses, and finally hitting the point, killing with one blow," the Knight of Punishment laughed faster and faster:

"The most terrible thing is that I already know your methods, but I am still powerless to fight back! I do not have the talent of Lord Hansen, and I cannot even tell whether your words are true or false. ”

Wholehearted.

Hypocrisy?

Tails looked at him ambivalently.

He spoke several times, but in the end he could only say lonely:

"A long time ago, I heard a phrase from a one-eyed guy. ”

Tails sighed:

"If it's good for the stars, what's true or false?"

Sakel shook slightly, and paused for a few seconds.

But soon, his tear-filled face distorted.

"Good for the stars?"

"Haha, so you deliberately pointed out your identity as a hostage in the Northlands, and it is also one of the means? Do you want to remind me that Exeter is on the offensive and has the upper hand, and once you die, the kingdom will be in trouble?"

Sakel muttered to himself in a frenzied manner.

Tails was silent for a while, but still spoke:

"Actually, I didn't think about it that much, I just felt ......"

"I think it's ......"

Tails opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't speak.

That's when it happened.

"You stars, you're all the same, aren't you?" said Saker with a tearful smile, putting down his hand.

Tails was stunned:

"We?"

Sakel chuckled again:

"Back then, he was the same, looking at me sincerely and calmly, revealing the truth unabashedly, without hesitation to admit his purpose, even to admit his hypocrisy, to admit his apologies, his 'reluctance'. ”

This time, the Knight of Punishment looked in one direction and slowly stretched out his finger.

"Behold, he sat there, smiling sincerely and innocently, and let me choose. ”

"Just like now. ”

Tails looked in the direction he was pointing.

But all I saw was a dark void.

He turned back worriedly to find the guards around him looking at the deranged Sakel with sad expressions.

"Fuse truth and hypocrisy together, and carve a chessboard ...... that others have to go"

At this moment, Sakel is like a withered old man, and he no longer has the warrior demeanor he once had.

It made Tails feel a pain in his heart.

Sakel's voice grew quieter, bringing out a heartbreaking rhythm: "I hate you, but I hate you more than I hate you and I hate you even more that I can't hate you......"

"Bright Star ......"

"You're all just as cruel. ”

Cruel.

Tails closed his eyes tightly.

"I'm sorry. He said with difficulty.

The next moment, the Knight of Punishment suddenly roared!

"Ahh

Sakel fell to his knees in pain, clutching his forehead.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness!"

"Why!"

The roar was hoarse, but it was even more heartbreaking.

Tails wanted to step forward, but was pulled by Belletti behind him.

Barney Jr. shook his head at him.

Sakel's wail lasted a few seconds before it weakened.

But the next second, he looked at Tails with a sad face.

"Let's go. ”

This time, Saker's words were simple.

"Let's go, Your Highness, and leave. ”

He clutched his head and crouched in front of the wall, his tone bordering on pleading.

"Never, never again. ”

"Just take it for you...... Never...... Seen me. ”

Tails stared blankly at the punishment knight.

He's safe.

But......

It wasn't what he wanted.

He looked at Sakel, who was almost broken and hysterical a moment ago, and felt sad in his heart.

No.

Tails took a deep breath:

"You...... You can come with us and leave the Prison of Bones, and you may not be able to return to the royal capital in the light, but ......"

But unexpectedly, Sakael suddenly burst out and roared out of thin air!

"Let's go!"

Tails was startled until Belletti pressed his shoulder.

Sakel fell back to his place, his voice lowered, and he began to sob.

"Before I lost control...... Walk. ”

"Please. ”

"Bright Star. ”

Tails looked at him and was silent for several seconds until little Barney behind him coughed softly.

"I see. ”

Tails sighed, turned around, and stepped away.

It's over.

He said this to himself.

But for some reason, there was no joy in his heart.

There is only a faint sadness.

"Wait. ”

The crowd turned their eyes and saw Semir looking in the direction of Sakel, and said in a loud voice:

"Sakel, do you intend to stay in the Prison of Bones and rot here for the rest of your life?"

The Knight of Punishment did not answer.

Semir frowned.

"Well, you like it here, albeit to fend for yourself. ”

"But before that, you'll have to tell me," Semir gritted his teeth, "who is it?"

"Eighteen years ago, who was the bright star who intended to usurp the throne?"

This sensitive question made everyone's nerves tense again.

But Sacrael just chuckled in a trance, and shook his head nervously.

"It doesn't matter anymore. ”

"No more...... Important. ”

Semir's brow tightened and he took a step forward, apparently unwilling.

"You-"

But the other hand held him down.

"He's right, Semir. ”

Barney Jr. let out a breath with disgust for the past and lies in his tone:

"It doesn't matter who did it...... The results are no longer changeable. ”

Semir was silent for a moment.

Eventually, he snorted and shook Barney Jr.'s arm away, no longer looking at Saker.

"Very well, then we'll ...... now," Barney sighed.

But just when everyone was relieved, Tails let out a long breath, and as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly turned around and walked back!

Without hesitation, he walked again towards Sacrael.

Little Barney, who had only one arm left, couldn't grasp it, and suddenly changed color.

"Your Highness!" Belletti was even more subconsciously about to stop Tails.

But Tails calmly raised a hand and stopped everyone's movements.

"I know what I'm doing. ”

I saw the young man exhale, slowly walked up to Sakel, who was holding his head and trembling and muttering to himself, and squatted down.

"You know what, knight," Tails smiled in a friendly and sad way:

"In my journey, there was one of the most desperate periods of darkness. ”

Sakel's shaking stopped.

He lowered his arms and looked at the boy in a daze, bewildered.

"At that time, there was a lonely and selfless hero behind the scenes, who gave me the most generous and sincere blessings. ”

The next moment, Tails made a move that shocked everyone.

He reached out and gently grabbed Saqel's head.

"And now, in the name of Tyers Bright Star," Tails uttered the most sincere words in his most peaceful and gentle voice:

"I convey his blessings to you. ”

Blessing.

Sakel seemed to froze, staring at Tails, motionless.

Tails leaned forward and leaned against the knight's forehead.

"May the darkness cleanse your heart, and may the torch guide you," Tails' voice was hoarse, but inexplicably hollow, so that the onlookers unconsciously dispelled their anxious emotions:

"Lonely watchman, Saqel. ”

Tails closed his eyes and leaned his forehead against the ugly brand of the other party:

"May you ...... Never get lost. ”

The moment he touched it, Saker's whole person trembled slightly.

Tails' mood was incredibly calm.

After doing all this, he had a feeling like he had become different.

But......

"Ahh

Suddenly, he heard the people behind him exclaim in unison.

But Tails ignored it, he knew they were worried, but he also knew that he was safe now.

"It's ......"

However, at an angle that Tails couldn't see, the fast rope opened his mouth wide.

He looked at the faint silver light emanating from Tails, and was so surprised that he took a step back and crashed into Tardin!

Barney Jr. looked at this unusual light in shock, and exchanged glances with Belletti, shocked and speechless.

It wasn't until a few seconds later that a confused Tails opened his eyes and stood up.

Only then did he realize that at some point, the guards behind him were staring at him with wide eyes.

It's weird.

Tails was puzzled.

The boy cast a questioning look at the petrified man, "What's wrong?"

"Well, you just ......"

I saw the fast rope covering his mouth exaggeratedly, speaking incoherently, pointing at Tails's arm and shaking endlessly: "Oh my God, Haoyue, harvest, Muhai, desert god......"

"Is this ...... Legend, Imperial Family, that, gold, glow, glitter, glitter, glitter—"

The next second, he was covered by Tardin's mouth behind him.

"Nothing, Your Highness. ”

Tarding said respectfully:

"He's just, a little excited. ”

Under Tardin's merciless hand, the fast rope who was about to cry immediately nodded with kindness.

Tails shook his head inexplicably.

But he knew it wasn't the time to pursue it.

He turned his head tiredly with a wound all over his body, and saw Sakel, covered in wounds, sitting stunned, looking at himself in disbelief, silent.

But at least......

Tails silently thought:

The crisis was solved.

Tails stared at him for a moment, then finally let out a sigh.

The prince stepped forward and walked towards the others, Barney Jr. and Belletti tacitly getting out of the way, then Semir, Tardin, Cannon, and Brie.

The fast rope stood stupidly in place, and was ripped open by Tardin.

Step by step, Tails staggered through the path they had respectfully conceded, and suddenly had the illusion of walking in the Revival Palace.

He smiled self-deprecatingly.

I don't know why, he feels that the attitude of these people is different.

It was more respectful than when they first met, but less cordial than after forgiving and comforting them.

Tails didn't think much of it, and he walked through the passage that had been cleared by the people and walked over to the bodies of Naki and Nai.

"What are you going to do with their bodies?"

Little Barney paused, his face sad.

"Someday," he said cautiously and softly:

"We will come back and retrieve everyone's bones. ”

Tails nodded.

The bloody years of these people.

That's it.

The young man sighed, endured the pain in his back, leaned down, and picked up the green spar "key" on the ground.

The key to the dungeon of bones.

"So," Tails grinned, rubbing his waist, presumably a muscle strain, as he looked at the crowd in front of him:

"Ready to get out of jail?"

Everyone looked at Barney Jr.

Barney Jr. was silent for a moment, then withdrew his gaze from the body on the ground.

Silently, he picked up his sword and walked over to Belletti, letting the latter hold his body.

Cannon tidied up Naki and Nai's faces one last time, sobbing and gritting his teeth and nodding.

Brie kissed the deceased on the forehead and stood up.

Tarding loosened the fast rope and straightened his sword.

Fastrope showed off his white teeth, held the Time Crossbow, and made an exaggerated "You're awesome" gesture to Tails.

Semir silently picked up the silver-bladed sword left by Tails from the ground and walked behind the crowd.

The scarred remnants of the soldiers were silently assembled.

Barney Jr. looked around, then snorted softly and nodded to Tails:

"Anytime. ”

Tails lifted the corners of his mouth, his gaze suddenly frozen.

"Oh, one last thing. ”

"While you're all still there......"

The prince turned, rubbed the key in his hand, and looked at each of the scruffy, scarred members of the guard, thoughtfully:

"Thranzilana. ”

"Do you have any impressions of the name?"

Everyone was stunned.

Tails swept everyone's expressions.

He found no anomalies.

The boy frowned and asked:

"I mean, eighteen years ago, especially before the Year of Blood?"

The others looked at each other, but all of them were stunned.

Eventually, Belletti asked, confused, "Thuran...... Na?"

"Who's that?"

Tails looked at their expressions and could only sigh in disappointment.

"My mother," he shook his head, finally abandoning this intention to find witnesses from years ago:

"It is said to be. ”

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment.

"It's okay, I'm just trying to ask. ”

"But since you don't know ......"

Without any delay, Tails walked straight to Semir, raised the key in his hand, and looked at this ancient but lonely dark dungeon one last time with the most complicated and strange feelings: "Come on, find your secret exit." ”

"We're in this broken dungeon...... Enough is enough. ”

Semir held out his hand, but did not take the key immediately.

"Are you sure you want to get out?"

Tails was slightly stunned:

"What do you mean?"

Semir shook his head:

"I don't know what you're capable of, but if the calamity is out there, it's leaked through our people......"

Semir's eyes were cold:

"Whether you are a prince or not, many people want you to die. ”

"Semir!"

Belletti glanced at Sakel, who was sitting in the shadow corner on the other side, and said sternly, "Don't forget, Your Highness saved your life...... Lives to all of us. ”

Semir snorted.

Tails looked at him, then at the people around him.

From their eyes, he saw not only respect for the prince, but also fear and awe of the unknown.

Of course, there is only one exception for those who have no heart and no lungs.

Tails smiled.

"Yes, if my identity is revealed, more people want my life. ”

The prince said indifferently: "But you don't want it. ”

"That's enough. ”

At that moment, Semir was stunned.

His gaze lingered on Tails for a long time.

Several pairs of eyes moved slightly.

Tails snorted and shook the key in his hand.

"And it's really time for us to go. ”

Semir looked at the key in Tails' hand and then at him, a little distracted.

"yes. ”

"It's time to go. ”

Semir nodded coldly, but withdrew his hand, ignoring the key.

Under Tails' puzzled gaze, he saw Semir take ten steps and walk into an inconspicuous corner, first pried open a floor tile with his long sword, then leaned down and reached out to pull something inside.

"Semir?"

Just when everyone was scratching their heads, a change happened.

Thundered......

The slight tremor from the ground, and the puffs of dust sprinkling overhead, made Tails and the others change color!

"What's this—"

Before Barney Jr. could finish his words, Tails, who reached out to cover his mouth and nose, discovered the key.

I saw that in the continuous dust, the place where the ceiling in front of them was connected to the wall was suddenly a dim hole!

Thundered......

In the midst of everyone's astonishment, the shaking continued, and the area of the cave above their heads was still expanding.

It looked as if the wall tiles connected to the ceiling were receding one by one, slowly revealing the wide, rectangular opening.

What's even more amazing is that the wall tiles seem to have been agreed, and they exit from top to bottom at different distances, and when they retreat to the bottom, they just form a stone staircase step by step, from the ground to the ceiling, a full eight or nine people wide, leading to the dark unknown hole.

The cold wind continued to pour in through the widening hole, causing Tails to shiver.

More than a dozen seconds passed.

When the shaking completely dissipated and the hole above their heads was completely revealed, everyone was already stunned.

This is......

Tails stared at the stone staircase that seemed to automatically step backwards, step by step.

"I know, it's shocking, isn't it," Semir sighed, standing on the edge of the newborn stone staircase, "the miracle of the mages. ”

"When I first saw it, I was like you. ”

Tails took a deep breath and came to his senses, trying to convince himself not to be so shocked.

The boy takes a step:

"Okay, then we'll ......"

Tails' hands tightened.

Wait a minute.

For a moment, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Semir. ”

Tails stared blankly at Semir standing on the edge of the stone staircase.

"You didn't look for it, you just opened the exit? do you know where it is?"

The prince's question attracted the attention of most people.

Semir snorted softly:

"I've always known that. ”

Tails froze.

He tried his best to adjust his breathing, and held up the crystal green key in his hand tremblingly:

"Then why are you...... Don't need a key?"

Tails' questioning made everyone feel that something was wrong, and Barney Jr. changed color even more.

Semir snorted and turned to them, his back to the cave and the stone staircase.

"Because this exit was opened an hour ago," Semir said, expressionlessly:

"Before the key falls into your hands. ”

Tails' brain was dizzy, and he struggled to make sense of the strange logic here.

As an exit door, it has long been opened?

Before it falls into my hands?

Wait, where did I get the key to the dungeon of bones?

Is that......

Thinking of this, Tails couldn't help but turn pale.

Semir looked at the darkness in the cave entrance and frowned slightly:

"They seem to be a little late and need some reminder......"

Semir grabbed the silver-bladed sword in his hand and tapped it on the stone bricks a few times, and the blade suddenly made a crisp clang, spreading through the empty darkness behind the cave entrance.

Bite...... Bite...... Bite......

At that moment, Barney Jr. and Belletti changed color together!

"Semir?"

Semir turned his head and snorted softly, saying nothing.

But soon, there was an unusual change in the field.

Trample.

Footsteps.

In the darkness of the cave entrance, mysterious footsteps could be heard.

It came into Tails' ears.

Right behind Sémir.

Barney Jr. subconsciously caught up and formed a truth formation with Belletti, protecting the shocked Tails behind him and facing Semir, who was not quite right.

Tread, tread, tread......

Plural footsteps.

More and more footsteps are progressing from weak to strong, from small to loud, from far to near.

From faintly audible, to clearly recognizable.

Everyone is nervous!

"Semir, what did you do?" Barney Jr. looked at his former colleague in disbelief.

But Semir just looked at him coldly.

Tread, tread, tread......

Finally, a pair of sand boots appeared at the top of the stone staircase, and with a leisurely rhythm, they walked out of the darkness and walked down step by step.

"Well done, Semir," came a voice from above his boots in a voice that was so strange that Tails almost had forgotten it, but which he remembered the moment he heard it:

"After waiting so long, I almost thought you were hanging. ”

The voice was calm, yet cold and indifferent.

Semir snorted coldly and did not answer.

Barney Jr. and the others looked at each other suspiciously, but did not get an answer.

But they noticed that Prince Tails suddenly turned ugly and shocked.

No way.

"So, all our troubles ......"

The sandboots slowly paced down the stone staircase, revealing their owner's figure.

The calm voice continued:

"Shadow Shield, Northter, Mycco, your prisoner friends, including that damn mask......"

"It's almost cannibalistic, aren't they?"

Semir nodded, ignoring the puzzled and disappointed looks of the others.

"Of course, most of the people here are wounded, and they are no longer a threat," Semir said coldly, glancing around his fellow guards.

But Sonny didn't survive. ”

The owner of the sand boots paused slightly:

"Oh, alas. ”

"But we will remember him. ”

Barney Jr. raised his guard to the highest level with his sword in one arm, Belletti stubbornly defended Tails' flank, and the others solemnly regrouped their formation.

But Tails was completely frozen in place.

No way.

The owner of the sandboots finally stepped down the stone staircase, revealing his full view in the firelight.

"No, no. ”

Tails stared blankly at the comer:

"I saw it with my own eyes, you were obviously nailed through......"

The man in the sand boots sighed slowly, and it didn't seem to be agreeable:

"yes, yes, I know. ”

He is like a librarian who has explained the rules of the library countless times, but still encounters violations every day, and his words are full of laziness and impatience:

"You saw with your own eyes: I'm dead. ”

In the midst of the consternation of the guards, Tails stared at the man who wasn't supposed to be there.

No way.

"So guess what, Prince Tails. ”

The man calmly opened his arms, and with the same polite smile as before, he showed Tails his neck and chin intact:

"What kind of existence ...... the world?"

The visitor paused, seemingly enjoying Tails' reaction:

"Kill ...... Never Die"

He chuckled and continued:

"Every time you are reborn?"

The laughter of the visitor seemed to have a magical power, drawing out the deepest fear in Tails's heart.

Kill them without dying.

Every time you are reborn.

Tails stiffly looked at the other party on the stone staircase, only to feel that his thoughts were about to stop.

In this world, there is an immortal existence......

Is that......

Is that......

"By the way, thank you for helping me keep the 'Eternal Truth'. ”

In Tails' almost frozen look of astonishment, the man calmly and politely took the silver-edged sword that Semir had handed him.

"But I remember, you didn't read the inscription. ”

It's Ricky.

Tails said to himself blankly.

It's him.

The man who should have died under Yodel's sword for a long time, the leader of the mercenaries who whistled the whistle of blood, Crassus who was the sword of calamity, and the Ricky who was always calm, stood on the stone staircase, gently flashing the two lines of inscriptions on the streamlined blade.

"Truth is eternal. ”

Looking at the stunned Tails, Ricky's eyes flashed with cold light as if he had been reborn after death, and said in the most soothing tone:

"My generation, struggling. ”
