In the control room of (Fraxenas), it had not been long before the alarm sounded again.
It's just that this time, it's slightly different from the previous space earthquake warning.
After stopping to 'punish' Kannazuki, Kotori looked at the female cadre on her right who covered her eyes with her hair.
"Shiizaki! What happened?"
If she remembered correctly, this alarm sound was...
"Commander... there is a new elf reaction. There are two other elf wavelengths coming from the building destroyed by (Guardian). One is the one that appeared recently (Diva).
, the other one is very similar to (sister) in the database, but her wavelength is very strange!"
The building that was previously unable to be detected due to special magnetic field interference was finally revealed in front of (Fraxenas).
Swallowing sluggishly, Shiizaki continued to report with some disbelief.
"(Sister)'s spiritual power wavelength...is displayed in the form of a negative number..."
"What─?!"
Kotori, who was also in disbelief, screamed.
Negative spiritual power, doesn’t that mean...!
(...DEM Club! What are you doing!?)
Clenching her teeth, Kotori looked at the spiritual power playback results displayed in front of her.
(Damn!)
The elves appear one after another, and now is not the time for her to sit in the command room and play 'games'!
A choice must be made!
…
"Kotori, do you want to go?"
As if he guessed Kotori's plan, Lingyin turned slightly.
"Ah, when the situation has reached this point, I can't sit here quietly anymore."
Crossing her hands, Kotori has made a decision.
There were some things that she had to confirm with her own eyes.
Because the girl named Itsuka Kotori is not only the commander of Ratatosk.
——Also identifies the elf named (Efreet)!
"...Reiyin, I will leave the command of the main ship to you. For attack and defense matters, you can use Kannazuki to your heart's content!"
Swinging her red ponytail, Kotori stood up and left after leaving the matter to the two people she trusted the most.
"...I understand, Kotori, be careful."
Sighing slightly, the secretary with dark circles turned his gaze back to the screen, revealing something deeper in his eyes.
After waving his hand and knocking away a (phantom beast), Yakuya, who was back to back with Yuzuru, looked in the direction of the building in front of him and screamed.
Within the field of vision, pitch-black light continued to flicker outward as Wanyuri broke through the cracks.
An unknown torrent began to spread towards the entire building.
"Worry. That's a very disturbing smell."
Feeling the spiritual power full of despair, Xi Xian also made a shy sound.
"...Sister Wan Yuri...Sister Miku..."
Yoshino couldn't help but feel uneasy as she looked at the building while blocking the attack of the AST members led by Origami.
…
"Pull, pull, pull, it looks like something terrible has happened."
Kurumi dodged Mana's attack with enough room, and Kurumi chuckled.
Using the spirit spear to push back the magician girl with a single ponytail, the time elf opened the distance between the two.
"You guy! Are you trying to escape again?"
Realizing that Kurumi seemed to have other plans, Shina made a dissatisfied provocation.
"Haha, this is really..."
With a sneer, Kuang San looked at his 'old enemy'.
"As a human being, you can indeed be said to have commendable strength."
"However, it seems that I am too soft-hearted and actually let you think that you have the strength to shout in front of me."
"For such a disobedient child——"
Showing a twisted smile, Kurumi pointed the weapon at Mana again.
"It needs a good 'education'."
——"Seven Bullets (Zayin)".
"--when?!"
His body stopped in the air unable to move, and Mana couldn't help but scream.
"Do you think I'm just shooting at you pointlessly? You're so naive."
"I may not have time to play the 'cat and mouse' game with you recently, so please take some rest~"
Deciding casually in a seductive tone, Kuang San's men showed no mercy in their attacks.
Merciless bullets shot towards Mana's limbs.
"……Well!"
The girl whose hands and feet were penetrated let out a groan of pain, and saw that her body was about to be hit by a bullet.
"——Burn, (Burn the Demon Destroyer)!"
The orange flames drowned out the rain of bullets, and what Mana saw before he fell unconscious was a girl covered in flames.
…
After leaving the bridge and unfolding the spiritual equipment, Kotori happened to see the (Nightmare) attacking Mana.
Maybe I saw traces of someone on the girl's body and felt that I couldn't let it go.
So she took action to block Kurumi's attack.
"Oh, oh, oh~ isn't this a very scary and terrifying flame elf? Hehehehe..."
"Although I really want to say 'hello' to you, it seems that I am needed more over there~"
She didn't care about Kotori's actions to save people, since she didn't intend to kill Mana anyway.
"Really, 'I' over there actually failed...?"
After muttering troubledly to himself, Kurumi pointed the gun at himself again.
"Then, let me take my leave first."
"(Nightmare)! You...!"
Seeing that the surrounding (phantom beasts) were also dealt with by the elves brought by Wanyuri, so after defeating Mana, Kurumi ignored Kotori and disappeared into the air again.
After all, the situation in that area shrouded in darkness didn't seem promising.
In the Tiangong office building of the DEM branch, black spiritual energy was constantly overflowing from the cracks in the ground where Wan Yuri and Ailian were fighting.
[Hey, hey, it was just a whim. After all, there has been no progress in five years. You guys really brought me a lot of surprises.]
In a mocking tone, Westcott's voice came through the loudspeaker again.
[Ailian, that place will soon become a ‘stage’ that is not suitable for humans to appear. Won’t you come back? 】
"Tsk."
With a very unpleasant snort, the most powerful magician lady did not answer, but just looked at Wan Yuri deeply.
Then, she expanded her realm of freedom and disappeared.
At this moment, Wanyuri didn't have the energy to stop Ailian.
She focused all her attention on the dark figure slowly emerging in front of her.
Blocking Miku, who had not recovered her strength and had uneasiness written all over her face, behind her, Wanyuri raised the flaming sword again.
【bring it on!】
The devil's song sounded again.
[That is Ieleth that emerges from the wisdom of despair!]
A girl with glassy eyes, wearing a black nun uniform made of a mixture of blood and black spiritual power, broke through the restrictions and appeared in front of them.
【Elves! Welcome the triumph of the "Demon King"!】
[Hmph hum hum ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha” (to be continued)
