“Mr. Brimir!”

With a shout, Saito wakened.

Gasping desperately, he appeared round.

He was nonetheless confined throughout the stone partitions of the “Jail Island” cell.

Wanting down at his chest, he noticed a sweat-soaked jacket. It appeared just like the “Lífþrasir” rune hadn’t reacted.

After some time… the sound of a drop, a drop of water dripped on his leg, complicated Saito.

“…?”

Water drops continued to drip down, progressively wetting his pants.

“Huh… are you telling me, that I’m crying?”

Saito rubbed his eyes.

However his tears didn’t cease. Irrespective of how a lot he wiped them, they continued to move.

“… Unusual. Huh? Why am I crying…?”

Floating on the within of Saito’s closed eyelids, was Brimir’s expression of disappointment.

“Barely, I simply vaguely keep in mind… that one thing very unhappy occurred.”

The phrases Derflinger by the way had mentioned earlier than floated by Saito’s thoughts. Such a tragic tragedy had occurred six thousand years in the past, which led to Derflinger sealing his reminiscence.

“Brimir and Sasha have been initially in love….”

They held no hatred for one another.

However, ultimately it had come to that form of ending….

Brimir solely wished to avoid wasting his folks, and Sasha… needed to avenge these individuals who had been massacred.

Saito wiped his eyes with the cuff of his sleeve.

“Sure, now isn’t the time to cry….”

In his thoughts, he desperately contemplated the which means of the dream he simply had.

Why is it that the acquainted rune let Saito dream of a reminiscence from six thousand years in the past….

6,000 years in the past, the “Nice Disaster”, which had brought on the demise of half of the Elves, was the “Void” spell “Life” forged by the Founder Brimir. With a purpose to get rid of the reason for the wind stones going uncontrolled, which was really an enormous chunk of “Spirit Stone”, Brimir blew up the “Holy Lands” together with the Elven metropolis.

However… at that very same time, a doubt floated up in Saito’s thoughts.

“However isn’t this a bit bizarre?”

For the reason that “Holy Land” had been flattened 6,000 years earlier, why was the problem of the “Wind Stones” going uncontrolled taking place once more…?

Saito, racking his mind, tilted his head doubtful.

“I don’t perceive… however that this has some which means is true.”

Why ought to the “Holy Land” be destroyed once more…?

No, wait a second… Saito immediately remembered one thing as he racked his mind.

In Saito’s thoughts, the remnants of the crater made within the desert, in addition to a big chunk of the “Holy Land’s” mountain vary coincided with the scene of the “Dragon’s Nest” surrounded by the formation of unusual rocks.

“…Proper, isn’t all the ’Holy Land’ sunk to the underside of the ocean?”

Maybe the “Holy Land” hadn’t been fully destroyed….

In different phrases, the “Life” that Brimir fired didn’t fully destroy the “Holy Land”…?

That made sense. Why have been the “Wind Stones”, which ought to go uncontrolled as soon as each a number of tens of hundreds of years, about to go of management once more… Was the present occasion of the “Wind Stones” going uncontrolled as a result of Founder Brimir didn’t fully destroy the “Holy Land” 6,000 years in the past…?

“That’s proper, this have to be it….”

Saito was satisfied. At the moment, Brimir had did not fully destroy the reason for the “Wind Stones” going uncontrolled.

It solely leveled half of the “Holy Land”, thus delaying the destruction of Halkeginia.

“Wait a second, if that’s the case….”

Saito, along with his fingers throughout his chest, sunk deeper into thought.

The “Holy Land”, which had sunk to the underside of the ocean.

The Founder’s Void, which had woke up in Louise.

“Proper…!”

Saito softly cried.

So long as Louise’s “Void” destroyed the “Holy Land” sleeping on the backside of the ocean once more, wouldn’t it’s doable to cease the “Wind Stones” from going uncontrolled, and save Halkeginia? That approach, they may keep away from a battle so as to compete for land and conflict breaking out with the Earth.

“There’s an opportunity… this fashion there’s an opportunity.”

This brought on hope to immediately spring up in Saito’s coronary heart.

“I’ve to inform Louise about this instantly….”

Considering this… Saito was immediately shocked.

How might he inform Louise about this from the jail…?

If the mixed pressure of the “Coalition Military for the Restoration of the Holy Lands” started to invade the Earth, it might be too late….

Presently, there was a clatter within the nook of the cell, the sound of a pile of books.

Wanting, Saito noticed Tabitha’s stunned face gazing at him.

“Tabitha, you’re awake?”

Saito promptly requested.

Proper then he’d been too absorbed in thought and had fully forgotten that Tabitha was additionally there.

“You have been simply speaking in your sleep, have been you dreaming?”

“Properly, somewhat. You didn’t see me crying simply now, did you?”

Requested the query, Tabitha was hesitantly silent, then nodded her head. [1]

“Actually. I allow you to see an embarrassing facet of me.”

“It’s nothing, all people, cries.”

Tabitha shook her head.

Then Saito stood up, and sat subsequent to Tabitha.

“Hey, Tabitha. Is there any approach to escape from right here?”

“No, there isn’t any approach in the meanwhile.”

“Oh… That’s true.”

On the day they’d been locked up right here, Saito had tried all of the escape strategies he had seen within the dramas or films. However actuality wasn’t that easy… it might be mentioned that the fantasy world isn’t that naïve. What’s extra, even when they suffered by the hassle to flee right here, exterior was an island in the midst of the ocean. Even with Tabitha’s magical flight, it positively wouldn’t take lengthy to exhaust her magical energy.

Simply then, Tabitha’s phrases immediately piqued Saito’s curiosity.

“… You simply mentioned, there’s no approach in the meanwhile?”

Tabitha nodded her head, and gently pushed up her glasses.

“When the time is true, there will likely be an opportunity to flee. So wait quietly.”

“However we don’t have a lot time left….”

Saito couldn’t assist however whisper this. Earlier than the “Coalition Military for the Restoration of the Holy Land” started to invade the Earth, he needed to inform Louise in regards to the dream he simply had now. And….

Saito appeared down at his chest.

“Time could also be working out….”

“….”

Consequently, Tabitha silently pulled one thing from her cloak.

It was a chunk of parchment that had be folded repeatedly.

“What’s that?”

“Combined in with the breakfast issues right this moment, the key code of the Knights of Parterre.”

“Secret code….”

Saito nearly couldn’t assist however blurt this out, and instantly coated his mouth.

“The Knights of Parterre, is it Isabella?”

Asking in a low voice, Tabitha silently nodded.

“After studying I used to be arrested, she began the rescue operation alone. The key code corresponds to ’The Guide of St. Aegis’ and will be deciphered.”

Tabitha’s sight fell to Brimir’s holy scripture in her fingers.

“In order that’s it….”

Saito felt an important sense of admiration, no surprise she was so calm, since that’s how it’s. Tabitha had identified for some time that her cousin Isabella would start appearing instantly.

“When’s the escape?”

“When the subsequent meal is delivered.”

The second Tabitha responded with this.

Increase———!

The deafening explosion brought on all of “Jail Island” to shake.

“Wh-what’s happening?”

The ship’s deck sharply rocked with the violent influence.

Colbert’s “Ostland” launched a kamikaze assault on the buildings of Jail Island.

“Woaaaaaaaaaaah!”

Guiche emitted a mournful screech.

“Aaaaaaaaaaah!”

The youngsters of the Knights of the Water Spirit desperately clung to the facet of the ship, standing agency to keep away from being thrown off of the ship.

Malicorne, who hit the facet of the ship, bounced forwards and backwards a number of instances throughout the deck.

The hit collapsed a sturdy wall and stirred up loads of mud.

After the influence subsided, a momentary silence enveloped every little thing.

“Actually ineffective, and you continue to name yourselves the Queen’s private bodyguards!”

Éléonore roared as she held the steering wheel.

However even her fingers have been shaking barely.

As a result of low buildings of “Jail Island”, to collide they needed to fly with the underside of the ship nearly touching the bottom, requiring relatively refined maneuvering methods, in contrast to the suicide assault on the Elven tower.

After all, excessive low altitude flight was simple to say and onerous to do, so the underside of the ship lower by the bottom, and crashed into the constructing.

“… The ship appears to be advantageous.”

Kirche mentioned because the mud made her cough.

“Properly happily I anticipated this earlier, so I strengthened the ship prematurely.”

Colbert, standing on the entrance deck of the ship, proudly nodded.

Earlier than their departure, Colbert had hooked up the armor of the “Tiger Tank” to the entrance of the ship with “Alchemy”. The metal armor of the “Tiger Tank” was tougher than all of the steel from Halkeginia.

“Jail Island”, with a diameter of two leagues, sounded a low alarm.

Then Colbert pointed his wand on the collapsed stone wall and fired a “Fireball”, blowing open a big gap for everybody to invade inside with.

“Okay everybody, are you prepared?”

Colbert mentioned with a severe expression as he appeared again.

The youths of the Knights of the Water Spirit stood up collectively and silently pulled out their wands.

Though some folks appeared a bit timid, and a few folks appeared cussed, nobody had complained. In any case, everybody had a noble’s dignity.

“This can be a race towards time. Whereas the Elves are confused, you need to discover Saito and Ms. Tabitha. Per the plan, I and Ms. South Gotha will distract the Elves and battle for time. It’s a must to discover these two as quickly as doable.”

“We are able to’t maintain it for too lengthy. If you wish to save them, you need to transfer quick.”

Fouquet grinned, and instantly jumped into the diffusing mud.

“Then allow us to transfer too.”

Kirche mentioned.

Just like the fight plan, the troopers going to avoid wasting Saito and Tabitha divided into three routes.

Guiche, Malicorne, Kirche, together with Sylphid shaped one group, and the remaining folks have been divided and led by Reynald and Gimli. Though there have been few folks in Guiche’s group, there was the “Triangle Mage” Kirche, and the “Rhyme Dragon” Sylphid. Colbert believed that it was ample fight energy.

Every group chief was allotted a “Holy Land” weapon at hand over to Saito later. Derflinger was positioned in a magic bag, and carried with them.

“Huge sis… I’ll positively prevent, chirp!”

Sylphid, who had was a woman, held up Tabitha’s wand.

“Hey~ please, await me for a second.”

They noticed Guiche embrace a mole that needed to be held with two fingers.

It was Guiche’s acquainted, an enormous mole.

“You need to take that mole alongside, Guiche?”

Malicorne requested.

“Sure. My Verdandi’s nostril could be very efficient, perhaps it coming alongside might be helpful?”

“Are you positive it received’t get in the best way?”

Listening to this, Kirche wrinkled her forehead.

“Please don’t have a look at her that approach, her footsteps are very nimble.”

Guiche gently positioned Verdandi down by his toes, and with a “sniff sniff sniff”, her nostril moved as she smelled the air.

“The primary group to rescue these two, instantly use the “Little Snake” to sign, and all groups should rapidly retreat on the sign. In case you are found by an Elf, you possibly can’t battle, you need to run away. Don’t battle, in the event you can’t escape, give up.”

After listening to Colbert’s reminder, the youth of the Knights of the Water Spirit strongly nodded their heads.

“I want you all the very best.”

Lastly, Colbert sighed.

After the influence subsided, Saito trembled and appeared up on the ceiling.

“Wh-what was the simply now… That wasn’t Isabella, was it?”

“…Not sure.”

Tabitha replied.

“At the least the Knights of Parterre wouldn’t do it like this.”

Presently, the sound of footsteps progressively approached from the opposite facet of the steel door.

This instantly made Saito nervous. It shouldn’t be the Elven guards coming to see what the 2 of them have been as much as.

After some time… the sound of the door lock got here in from exterior.

Whereas Saito tilted his head questioning, “What’s happening?” the cell door opened and the sunshine from the passaged shined into the cell.

“I’ve made you wait, Girl Charlotte.”, an Elven guard, holding a magic lamp, lowered his voice and mentioned.

“Huh?”

Saito was confused by the scenario in entrance of him.

What’s happening? Saito turned to take a look at Tabitha.

“Chikasui”, Tabitha mentioned.

“Ah!”

Listening to this, Saito received it.

On a more in-depth look, there was a well-recognized dagger held within the elf’s hand.

“Chikasui” was one of many spies of the Knights of Parterre, and its true type was an “Clever Dagger” that may manipulate the essence of the wielder.

At first, even Saito thought that Chikasui was only a easy cross-dresser. When he discovered the reality from Tabitha, he was tremendously stunned.

“Elves have coaching towards psychological management, which is de facto tough to take care of.”

“Is the explosion simply now you?”

“No, I’m additionally unclear in regards to the scenario.”

To Saito’s query, Chikasui shook his head.

“However that is nonetheless an important alternative to flee. Though it’s somewhat sooner than scheduled, please make the most of this time to rapidly escape.”

Then Chikasui gave Tabitha a tiny, baton-like wand.

“You is probably not used to it, nevertheless it’ll be like this in the meanwhile.”

“It would do.”

After nodding, Tabitha put the wand in her cape.

“Good, let’s go….”

Simply when Saito was about to face up, he felt dizzy.

Tabitha instantly supported Saito’s staggering physique.

“What’s it?”

“Oh, I’m advantageous… Just a bit vertigo….”

Whereas making ready to face up on his personal, Saito immediately misplaced all of the energy in his physique and fell to the bottom on the spot.

“Wh-what? Are my toes… not listening, to me….”

“What are you doing?”

A stunned Chikasui inquired.

“Sorry Mr. Chikasui… are you able to give me a weapon as nicely?”

“A weapon?”

“Yeah, I simply want to carry a weapon, and I ought to have the ability to transfer….”

“Then please use me.”

Chikasui pulls out a brief sword from his waist and handed it to Saito.

When he held the brief sword in hand, the rune on Saito’s left hand instantly lit up. Even utilizing the facility of Gandálfr, there was no approach to restore his misplaced energy, however his physique positively relaxed so much.

I ought to have the ability to transfer for some time….

“Let’s go.”

Within the chaos of the explosion, Saito and Tabitha escaped their cell.

“Huff, huff, huff… Wa-wait a minute, you guys.”

Within the jail passage, with the sound of the alarm, Guiche and the others have been working like loopy. As Colbert anticipated, the Elves appeared to be in a state of confusion. Nevertheless, in spite of everything, the chaos can’t final for too lengthy. In the event that they don’t hurry and save Saito and Tabitha, they’d turn into nothing however rats in a bag.

“Properly, I by no means thought we’d go so far as to invade an Elven fortress a second time.”

Malicorne mentioned with sweat on his brow.

“However after this mission is profitable, we are able to all be honored. No, perhaps we can be granted territory? Furthermore, th-there’s additionally Her Majesty Queen Henrietta’s lips….”

“The premise is to first return alive? I don’t need to pursue knighthood mendacity in a coffin.”

“Tiny, the place are you! Reply me, chirp, chirp!”

“Please, we’ll be found in the event you name with such a loud voice!”

Kirche, working within the entrance, appeared again to remind Sylphid.

“You guys additionally, lower the irrelevant chatter, look.”

Kirche pointed her wand to the entrance.

Though they didn’t hear Sylphid’s voice, they have been nonetheless coming… a group of two Elven guards have been yelling one thing in Elvish (Elf language) as they ran in direction of the group.

“Okay, let’s go!”

“Roger.”

Guiche and Malicorne instantly turned proper.

“Wait a second, magic incoming!”

The magic they noticed the Elven guard start to chant was Firstborn wind magic.

A tornado-like air vortex fired from the palm of their hand.

“Woaaaaah!”

The panicked Malicorne instantly chanted the “Air Hammer” spell.

Talking when it comes to outcomes it saved their lives, however the Firstborn wind magic brought on an earth-shattering increase, which exploded within the heart of the passage. Guiche’s group was blown away by the wind and rolled on the ground.

“Go-goodness, what a horrible energy.”

A pasty-faced Guiche mentioned.

If they’d really taken that assault proper then, their skeletons would stop to exist….

“I-it’s coming once more!”

Malicorne shouted.

“All people flee, I’ll cease them right here.”

Like he’d made up his thoughts, Guiche immediately stood up.

“Dealing with Elves, your Golem is simply little one’s play!”

“Anyway, you possibly can watch and be amazed, I’ve additionally matured.”

Then Guiche chanted a spell, and waved his rose-wrapped wand.

The petals flying within the air instantly grew to become eight “Bronze Valkyries”.

“How’s that? Yet one more than normal… Woah!”

In consequence, the bronze valkyries have been damaged into items within the blink of a watch by the magic the Elves fired.

“Actually, what the hell are you doing?!”

Kirche launched “Fireball” magic on the similar time. Triple the firepower, three balls of flame with monitoring talents rushed in direction of the Elves.

Then the fireballs exploded, inflicting a succession of violent noises within the jail.

“Oh, did I win?”

“No. The distinction within the energy of our magic and “Firstborn” magic is just too huge.”

Simply earlier than the fireballs hit, a stone wall appeared to dam it that Kirche couldn’t see by.

From the opposite facet of the burning flames got here the sound of Elves chanting.

“Sylphid, what sort of magic can you utilize?”

Guiche requested, sounding anxious, however Sylphid shook her head apologetically.

“I can’t do something, the spirit energy is being suppressed by the Elves. With out spirit energy, Sylphid is ineffective.”

“How might this be….”

Guiche held his aching head. Even when she modified again right into a “Rhyme Dragon”, there was no approach to fly right here and would hinder their motion….

“Briefly, run first!”

“Right.”

With that, Kirche fired a “Fireball”.

The flames and sound of the explosion ought to be sufficient to dam the road sight.

When everybody returned up the passage, they escaped across the nook of cross passage of the intersection.

“The enemy is chasing us, chirp!”

Kirche appeared again and forged one other “Fireball”.

“Actually, in the event you preserve that up, you’re rapidly going to expire of psychological vitality.”

Simply then, they discovered two acquainted figures in entrance of them.

“Oh, isn’t that Saito, Saito!”

Guiche shouted

“Chirp, chirp, huge sis can be there!”

“Hey~ Saito! We got here to avoid wasting you!”

Malicorne shouted as he waved his arm.

Nevertheless, the scenario actually felt off, and Guiche, noticing the abnormality, frowned.

Say, how precisely did these two escape from their cell…?

Saito and Tabitha appears to not discover all people, and handed by Guiche and the others.

“Huh?”

After stopping, they rotated.

The subsequent second, the 2 folks have been engulfed within the magic launched by the Elves pursuing Guiche and the others.

Within the corridor the place the alarm went off, Saito and Tabitha made a mad sprint for the exit.

The sound of an explosion got here once more from one other location.

The sound of footsteps and the roar of Elves will be heard in every single place. Nevertheless, the pursuing elves, are being scattered in every single place to a significant diploma by small magic dolls that look precisely like Saito and Tabitha.

“Skírnir”

This is likely one of the “Magic Instruments” utilized by the “Mjöðvitnir”, a magic doll that may change its look to look identical to somebody by absorbing their blood. When King Joseph had perished, the Knights of the Parterre have been detained and introduced right here by Chikasui. They have been appropriate for use as bait.

On the nook of the passage, Tabitha stopped Saito together with her hand.

“Cease.”

Then she forged the “Summon Water” spell, and created a puddle at her toes. She used the water floor as a mirror to substantiate whether or not there was an Elf down the passage.

“No downside.”

Going a number of steps ahead, Tabitha waved at Saito behind her.

“There are only a few guards.”

“Um… It looks like they don’t have time to spherical us up.”

Saito nodded. He didn’t know if it had something to do with the violent explosion simply now….

On the finish of the passage was a steel door, that was very similar to what Saito noticed in Adyl. It could be a magically pushed lifting gadget, just like an elevator.

“Tabitha, are you aware the right way to use this?”

Tabitha shook her head.

“It could solely react to the Elvish language.”

“Isn’t {that a} useless finish…?”

“Even when the gadget doesn’t transfer, you possibly can nonetheless fly”

That made sense. It appeared like Tabitha wished to fly within the elevator shaft utilizing “Flight” magic. That was definitely the quickest approach to the floor.

After chanting a spell, Tabitha shot an “Ice Javelin” in direction of the steel door.

The extraordinarily sharp ice spear hit the door instantly.

However the steel door is immobile.

“… Firstborn magic.”

“Can’t destroy it?”

“We are able to solely discover a completely different route.”

“Proper.”

Simply as fast as they gave up on the thought, and as they turned away to go away….

The lifting gadget door slowly opened.

“Oh, Tabitha, we’re soooo fortunate….”

Saito didn’t have an opportunity to be joyful.

Elven guards instantly appeared from the open door.

“How is there one other Saito!?”

Kirche shouted.

“There’s additionally one other huge sis right here, chirp!”

“God~ What the hell is happening!? I’m dropping my thoughts!”

Guiche held his head and groaned. A bit of magic doll tumbled at his toes.

“It’s a magic doll that may change its outer look, Tabitha have to be the one spreading them.”

“It’s good that it will probably confuse the Elves, however even we are able to’t discover the boss.”

Malicorne muttered.

In any case, it’s unimaginable to tell apart from their exterior.

“Nevertheless, with these things scattered in every single place, it means the 2 of them most probably already escaped.”

“Oh, however time is working out….”

“Oh, what’s this right here?”

“Why are you asking that now, that is an Elf’s… huh, who’s voice is that simply now?”

A skeptical Guiche appeared again, and the opposite three confirmed a glance of incomprehension as they shook their head.

“What? What did you say about Elves?”

They heard the voice once more.

“Did you get up?”

At the moment, Kirche was shocked, and pulled Derflinger out together with her hand.

“Oh, isn’t this Ms. Huge Tits? The place’s my associate, and the place precisely are we?”

“It’s Saito’s speaking sword! How come you immediately wakened?”

“I simply wakened, so what precisely is happening?”

“That is an Elven Jail.”

“Jail? What are you saying, how come we’re in this type of place?”

“We got here right here to rescue your grasp.”

Then Kirche merely defined how Saito was arrested and locked up in “Jail Island”. She briefly defined that they’d come to assist him.

Whereas silently listening to the reason, Derflinger responded,

“… Gotcha. No surprise it continually looks like my associate is close by.”

“Actually? You’ll be able to inform that are pretend?”

“After all, don’t underestimate the bond of my associate and I.”

Derflinger’s blade began clicking

“That is actually dependable.”

“Oh, Verdandi, what are you doing?”

At the moment, Guiche’s acquainted was attempting to dig within the floor.

“There are not any ’Earthworms’ right here.”

Malicorne mentioned.

They heard Verdandi digging round, absorbed in attempting to dig a gap within the floor.

Guiche and the others checked out one another in shock.

The trio of Elves charged out of the carry, and instantly surrounded Saito and Tabitha.

Tabitha rapidly pulled out her wand and chanted “Icicle Blast” magic.

The Elf in entrance couldn’t defend towards the spell, and have been instantly hit by a flying ice arrow. Not letting an enemy sense the spell is a specialty of the Knights of Parterre.

The opposite two cursed in Elvish. The subsequent second, they pulled out sabers and threw them like boomerangs.

“Tabitha!”

Saito acted rapidly. The “Gandálfr” runes allowed Saito to react rapidly, he lower in entrance of Tabitha to guard her, and mirrored the saber.

That wasn’t over. The sword that was mirrored rotated within the air and went straight for Saito. That and Ali’s “Sword of Will” have been the identical Firstborn Magic.

However Saito anticipated that. If this was the primary time you noticed this trick, you would possibly get stabbed within the again. Nevertheless, so long as you recognize the trick, it was nothing to be petrified of. Furthermore, Ali might manipulate 4-5 swords on the similar time, however the Elven guards might solely manipulate one.

After reflecting the sword, Saito charged instantly ahead. The Elf, with a horrified expression on his face, took a physique shot from Saito, and dropped to the ground. Tabitha adopted up and fired an ice arrow. The elf laying on the ground was frozen hand and foot, and couldn’t transfer.

The final Elf yelled one thing, then the stone wall burst with a rumble and a human-shaped stone doll appeared. The stone doll raised its first and tried to flatten Saito.

Saito shouted, “Wow,” and rolled on the bottom. The stone doll wielded its fist like an enormous hammer, and smashed an enormous gap within the floor. Tabitha instantly launched “Ice Javelin”, and an enormous ice spear hit the top of the stone doll. Nevertheless, even when the stone doll’s head shrank, that didn’t hinder its motion because the “increase, increase,” sound of it fists sounded as they smashed in direction of Saito.

“Woah… wa-wait…!”

Saito continued to dodge in a sequence of shut calls. The sword methods he was pleased with have been ineffective towards the stone man. If Derflinger was in his fingers, he would possibly have the ability to smash the stone man. Nevertheless there actually was no approach with the brief sword in his fingers.

“… Dammit, what ought to I do?”

Saito’s brow broke out in chilly sweat. They have been in a pinch, one the place they have been being cornered.

In the event that they makes use of up their time right here, reinforcements would quickly come from the carry.

If it was the traditional Saito, irrespective of what number of enemies, he might get out of hazard with the facility of “Gandálfr”. Nevertheless, the present Saito had used up an excessive amount of bodily energy, and with out Louise there to stimulate her acquainted’s feelings….

Seeing Saito desperately gasping, even the facility of the “Gandálfr” finally had a restrict. Sneaking a peek at Tabitha, you might see an anxious expression that she not often confirmed.

At the moment… with a crash, small items of stone fell on Saito’s head.

“Huh?”

This made Saito lookup.

The subsequent second, an enormous “bang” sounded, and one thing dug by the ceiling.

Earlier than Saito might even make a sound, loads of rubble poured down and buried the Elven guards together with the stone doll.

“Wh-what occurred…?”

Simply as Saito opened his mouth in confusion….

A spherical object fell from the opening within the ceiling.

“Huh?”

This puzzled Saito.

What fell in entrance of his eyes was a mole with huge eyes, shining with intelligence.

“Mole?”

Simply on the brink of confusion….

Saito immediately realized that this mole appeared very acquainted.

“Aren’t you… Guiche’s acquainted!?”

It have to be true. Not solely did this mole save his life in Albion, however he additionally stayed in his tent when he misplaced his associate earlier than. Even when it’s a mole, he wouldn’t neglect how his associate appeared.

“How did you get right here…?”

As Saito wrinkled his forehead in confusion, a well-recognized voice was heard coming from the opening within the ceiling.

“Hey~ It that Saito there?”

“Guiche!”

Saito shouted.

“That is the boss proper?”

“That appears proper.”

“Huge sister, Sylphid got here to avoid wasting you, chirp!”

“Malicorne, Kirche, and Sylphid!”

The Saito and Tabitha checked out one another.

Guiche’s group forged “Float” magic, and jumped down from the opening within the ceiling.

“Huge Sis, fortunately you’re alright, chirp!”

Sylphid hopped onto Tabitha’s head, and hugged her tight.

“How did you get right here?”

Saito requested all people.

“It was on Queen Henrietta’s order.”

Whereas answering, Guiche posed along with his hair waving.

“Briefly, we pretended a bit, you see… hey, uhh, what are you doing!”

“You guys—–!”

Saito burst in to tears, and tightly grabbed Guiche and Malicorne.

“E-enough, you possibly can let go. Please, you’re nostril is working!”

Kirche, with a wry smile, pulled out a magic bag from underneath her cloak.

“Right here, we additionally helped you out by bringing your sword.”

After taking out Derflinger, she handed it to Saito.

“Derf….”

When Saito obtained Derflinger.

“Hey Associate, very long time, no see!”

“Woah!”

Shocked by Derflinger, Saito couldn’t assist with opening his hand.

“D-Derf! You lastly wakened!”

“Hey, do you need to be so stunned, I’m somewhat unhappy, ya know.”

Derflinger mentioned in his normal tone.

“What have you ever been doing till now!? Even when I talked to you, you saved sleeping!”

Saito complained with an sad voice.

“Sorry, I used to be sleeping.”

“No kidding.”

Saito couldn’t assist however smile. Simply listening to Derflinger’s voice, he felt energized.

“Hey, decide me up associate.”

“Proper.”

The second he held Derflinger’s deal with in his hand, the runes on Saito’s hand lit up and he felt like energy progressively flowed into his physique….

“Say, associate.”

Derflinger mentioned in a tragic voice.

“What’s it?”

“I thought of all of it. Actually, thought of every little thing.”

“Proper….”

This made Saito really feel uncomfortable and he additionally didn’t know what to say to consolation him.

Considered every little thing….

Saito thought of every little thing he noticed within the dream from Derflinger’s perspective, the tragedy that occured 6,000 years in the past.

Together with the second that Sasha ran her beloved Brimir by the chest….

“Derf… I’ve loads of issues I have to ask.”

“Yeah, I do know. I’ll inform you every little thing.”

Seemingly decided, Derflinger answered.

“Hey, you two, are you able to discuss this later? Principally, we have to escape from right here first.”

Kirche mentioned.

“Elf reinforcements have come.”

Tabitha prolonged her wand from inside Sylphid’s arms,and appeared up as she raised her head.

The sound of the Elves’ footsteps approached.

“Ah, proper….”

“Ship the sign to retreat to everybody.”

Saying that, Guiche pulled out a small tube given him by Colbert, and ignited the magic contained in the tube.

“TOOT!”

A shrill, ear splitting sound rang all through the jail.

The “Little Singing Snake” was the modified magic weapon “Little Flying Snake”, and will produce a sound that may be heard irrespective of what number of leagues away it was. Initially, it was a failed weapon Colbert made for use on the “Zero Fighter”, so he by no means thought it might used on this method.

“*sigh*, you guys appear fierce.”

Colbert wiped the sweat from his brow.

His tone was a bit informal, and his expression was very dignified. Though the distraction had succeeded in attracting many Elves, he was rapidly run right into a useless finish, and he couldn’t escape from the firstborn magic he couldn’t oppose.

“This appears to be the tip of the street.”

Colbert muttered with a despondent expression.

With eight Elves in pursuit, the outcomes weren’t dangerous.

Colbert’s lips have been twisted coldly. His current expression was not that of the light instructor he normally had, however that of the captain of the experimental group of the Magic Analysis Institute, the “Flame Serpent” that folks have been afraid of.

“I by no means hated you guys, however please be a part of me on this journey.”

The decided Colbert raised his wand upright. With a purpose to shield the lives of his college students, Colbert was able to turn into the cruel “Flame Serpent” once more.

A bit of blazing ball lit up the tip of his wand.

That was Colbert’s trump card.

Hearth, Hearth Earth, a triangle spell of two components hearth mixed with Earth. The water vapor within the air was transformed to vaporized gasoline oil with “Alchemy”, after which ignited. An enormous fireball would immediately increase and exhaust all of the close by oxygen, killing any creature inside vary.

This was the lethal magic “Explosion”, which didn’t distinguish between buddy and foe.

It was additionally principally efficient towards the Elves, however this magic does have its drawbacks.

Utilizing it on this confined area, there was nothing Colbert might do for himself….

He noticed the magic was about to be full.

The wall in entrance of him collapsed with a rumble.

“What?”

This trigger Colbert to misplaced his chant.

The small fireball that lit up the tip of his wand disappeared.

The factor that destroyed the jail wall was an enormous stone golem that was practically twenty toes tall.

Ms. South Gotha.

“What, you have been right here? Get out of the best way, fast.”

Fouquet grinned as she sat on the shoulder of the golem.

“Oooooooooooooh!”

As quickly as he held Derflinger, Saito’s actions instantly grew to become just like the wind. He charged in between the Elven guards that have been blocking their advance. Deftly dodging the magic arrows fired at him, he used Derflinger’s blade to soak up them.

It didn’t matter how sturdy the Elves’ firstborn magic was, it was meaningless in the event that they couldn’t chant. As quickly as he noticed an Elf attempt to chant magic, Saito instantly shocked the enemy with a melee assault.

“This example isn’t too dangerous, associate.”

“Properly, you actually are the very best.”

“It’s good to listen to you say that.”

Derf’s blade shook with laughter.

After all it wasn’t solely that. The supply of “Gandálfr’s” energy got here from the motion of his coronary heart. Everybody had come to rescue him… Guiche, Malicorne, Kirche, Sylphid, Colbert-sensei, and the members of the Knights of the Water Spirit… That lit a hearth in Saito’s coronary heart.

Magic flew from behind him, offering cowl for Saito. Kirche’s fireballs burst; Tabitha’s ice arrows precisely attacked the Elves’ magic. Malicorne used “Air Hammer” to clear the trail, and Guiche used an earth wall towards the the soldier pursuing behind them.

“Sylphid will cheer for everyone, chirp!”

The group rushed straight forward and it didn’t take lengthy for a wall to dam their approach.

“It’s a useless finish!”

“Will we return?”

“No, that received’t do. We’d be simple pickings….”

Saito grabbed the magic bag that Kirche introduced alongside.

“Right here, I’ll use this.”

He took out a “Weapon” of the “Holy Land”.

“The M72 anti-tank rocket.”

It was the identical kind because the “Workers of Destruction” that was used to smash Fouquet’s golem.

After eradicating the protection pin, Saito pulled out the again cowl, and positioned it on his shoulder after extending the interior tube. With out aiming, Saito undid the protection and shouted on the similar time.

“All people, don’t stand behind me, and canopy your ears!”

He pulled the set off.

A rocket-type warhead with a tail was fired, exploding on influence.

They have been surrounded by a loud noise, and the wall in entrance of them shattered.

On the opposite facet of the opening blasted within the wall, the solar was shining on the floor of the ocean.

“Yeah, success!”

Guiche shouted with pleasure.

About twenty toes down was the deck of the “Ostland”, that had crashed into the jail.

The opposite youths of the Knights of the Water Spirit appear to have already returned to the ship.

“Prepare to leap.”

“What?”

Kirche grabbed Saito’s hand and jumped straight down.

“Woooooooooooooah!”

The frightened Saito screamed in terror.

However earlier than they hit the deck, their our bodies immediately began to evenly float.

It turned out that Kirche had forged “Float” magic earlier.

“Hey, Saito, you’re okay!”

As quickly as they landed on the deck the members of the Knights of the Water Spirit instantly stepped ahead and surrounded Saito.

“Gimli, Renault, and all people… wow!”

“Increase!” a loud bang sounded, and an enormous golem fell from the sky.

“What’s happening?”

Saito appeared up and noticed Colbert driving within the fingers of the golem.

“Colbert-sensei!”

“Oh, Saito, you’re protected.”

Leaping rapidly to the deck, Colbert instantly shouted on the again deck.

“Can you are taking off, Ms. Éléonore?”

“No, the steam system is damaged!”

Éléonore yelled in reply as she held the steering wheel.

The influence from colliding with the jail simply now appeared to have broken the steam system.

“If we don’t escape instantly, we’ll be surrounded by Elves!”

Kirche reminded them.

“Hey, give it to me.”

Colbert, chanting hearth magic, injected “Hearth” into the system.

Proper after it got here involved with the steam system. It started to rumble.

“It’s shifting, it began!”

The “Ostland” slowly floated and flew up into the huge sky.

At daybreak… Louise, who was mendacity in mattress, wakened.

After sitting up, Louise wiped her eyes together with her pajama cuffs.

As a result of Louise had cried so much in her desires.

It was a tragic dream, a dream so unhappy that no extra disappointment might be added….

The influence of the dream was too huge, and Louise was shocked for some time… At the moment, there was a knock on the door.

“My apologies. Ms. Vallière, are you awake?”

The one who got here was Siesta. Louise staggered as she stood as much as open the door.

Seeing Louise’s expression, Siesta was stunned.

“What occurred, Ms. Vallière?”

“It’s nothing.”

“How might it’s nothing, aren’t you crying?”

“Who’s crying?”

“You might be.”

“….”

Louise appeared away from Siesta.

“I had a dream.”

“Dream? A nightmare?”

“No, it was a tragic dream.”

Saying that, Louise’s eyes fell on the garments held in Siesta’s fingers.

“What garments are these?”

“That is the outfit that the Pope requested for Ms. Vallière to put on….”

Held in Siesta’s fingers was the holy white clothes worn by a priestess of Brimir. That was the outfit that Louise wore beforehand in “Aquileia” when she had served as a “Priestess”.

“Properly, I’m ready.”

Seemingly decided to do it, Louise groaned.

Louise become the holy clothes of the Brimir religion and, accompanied by Siesta, went to the deck of the “St. Mark” because it floated within the air.

Underneath the limitless blue sky, you might see scattered clouds and the deep blue sea of the “Holy Land”.

A lot of Romalian warships surrounded them within the native airspace, defending the “St. Mark” that the Pope was on. Outdoors that, the fleets of the nations of Gaulia, Germania, Albion, and Tristain have been deployed. Within the heart of Tristain’s fleet was the “Versanda”, a very eye-catching “Dragon Provider Ship”, that Henrietta was aboard.

With a complete of over 700 ships, this was the most important fleet within the historical past of Halkeginia. Of these, 250 have been warships, and the remaining have been galleons carrying troopers and provides.

The 80,000 troopers of the primary wave of the “Coalition Military for the Restoration of the Holy Land” have been on these ships. The remaining troops have been on standby within the camp within the suburbs of Adyl, able to proceed to the entrance traces.

The massive fleet was coated in flags, and the mighty military shocked Louise.

“Wow, it’s wonderful….”

Siesta was shocked in bewilderment.

“Uh, certainly….”

However… Louise although.

Irrespective of how massive a military they put together, the “Holy Land” was sleeping on the backside of the ocean.

“How is he going to ship such an enormous military?”

Tiffania and Josette, who had become the identical holy clothes as Louise, stood on the again deck of the ship.

As quickly as Tiffania noticed Louise, she rushed to her.

“Ah, Louise….”

Tiffania, wanting stressed, held Louise’s hand.

“Louise, you actually… actually aren’t altering your thoughts?”

“Sure.”

Louise nodded her head.

“The one approach to save Halkeginia is to seize the ’Holy Land’.”

“Louise, I….”

Louise gently put her hand on Tiffania’s trembling shoulder.

“Tiffa, please, belief me.”

“Louise….”

Seeing Tiffania’s pained expression, trigger Louise’s chest to ache.

It’s my fault that I concerned this half-elf woman, who quietly had lived within the forest of Albion, in such a merciless destiny.

“Don’t fear, Tiffa. I’ll deliver all of this to an finish….”

“Proper, sure, Louise, Saito, he….”

Simply as Tiffania began to say one thing.

“I made you wait, ye ’Saints’ who shall save Halkeginia.”

A smiling Julio stepped ahead and saluted the 2.

“The Pope’s prayers will likely be over quickly. This manner, please.”

“Sure….”

Julio with chilly eyes, Louise silently adopted in his steps.

Tiffania and Siesta each watched Louise go away, wanting uneasy.

Pope Vittorio Serevare had been praying on the bow deck of the ship.

They noticed him along with his eyes closed, chanting a spell in a whisper.

The Pope, with no wink of sleep, or a drop to drink, prayed by the evening constantly.

“What’s his Holiness doing now?”

Louise requested Julio.

“You’ll know quickly.”

Julio smiled fortunately, and turned his eyes to the ocean.

Quickly, Vittorio quietly stood up.

Wanting on the sea from the bow of the ship, he opened his fingers, and skim what appeared to be rune characters.

Quickly after….

An ear-ringing form of rumbling sound rang by the close by air.

“Wh-what?”

Louise couldn’t assist however cowl her ear as a result of it sounded just like the annoying sound of bugs flapping their wings.

“That is the facility of the ’Void’… the sound of the tiny particles that make up every little thing on this planet shaking.”

“You say that that is the Void?”

Then got here the massive “rumble rumble”-like sound.

“The ocean, is dividing…?”

At that second, Louise’s eye widened in shock.

The ocean that divided beneath them uncovered an enormous black mountain vary.

“That’s….”

The mountains slowly rose out of the ocean, and loads of sea water poured down them like a waterfall.

“Actually, what simply occurred…?”

Louise requested with a glance of shock.

“That is what the “Holy Land” initially appeared like.”

Right here’s somewhat tidbit about Japanese affirmations/denials – if somebody asks a query which is unfavorable (On this case, “you didn’t”), the Japanese approach to affirm that’s by nodding, as if to say “you might be right, I didn’t”.
