Chapter 5: Spirit's DancePart 1

In the sky, a flash of light came from the clash of two swords.

Ellen was wielding the high output laser knife <caledvwlch>. In confrontation, Mana had equipped her <v>with the sword <wolftail>.</wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail>No matter from what angle, Ellen drew the image of her territory in order to catch the release of the attack. A barrier appeared before the collision of the sword. Repeatedly clashing in close proximity, Ellen used the opening from Mana’s last attack to counterattack. Mana quickly evaded and counters Ellen's attack before she could release her next one.</wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail>However, <caledvwlch>was a sword entirely made of magic. Structurally, it was class apart from <wolftail>, which was a real sword coated with magic. A greater structure yielded a greater maximum output value.</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>However, Ellen’s sword has a greater consumption rate of magic, whereas Mana has the advantage of prolonged use. However, no one in the world could match Ellen in terms of magical power output. Mana couldn’t rely purely on strength alone; to compensate she needs to use her techniques. Not giving Ellen any time for a respite, she continued her high-speed attack.</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>But the opponent is the strongest wizard. She wasn’t an opponent Mana could easily defeat. Ellen correctly predicted Mana’s attack and gave a counterattack that finally broke Mana’s defensive shield. In fact, even now there is still no wound on Ellen’s body.</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>However, Mana’s purpose was not to defeat Ellen, their fight was to buy enough time for Kotori to save Shidou. It would be wrong to launch a desperate attack to wound Ellen. Her utmost priority is to extend the duration of the fight.</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>If this continues, it should be enough to win the desired amount of time. No matter how long, as long as they were able to successfully rescue Nii-</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>But at that moment.</wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail>Down below, the <ratatoskr>facility suddenly started to shine, emitting a pillar of light towards the sky. A violent shockwave pushed her back.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>She could not help but stare at the scene. Her attention taken away, her defenses momentarily faltered, leaving her completely exposed.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>This kind of moment is enough to make a fatal blow to an opponent.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>“You’re full of openings.”</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>Shocked, but it didn’t completely eliminate the power of her defense. However, just like a smash volleyball her body fell down towards the ground.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>“Waaah……!”</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>She quickly used her Territory as a buffer to absorb the impact. The ground became distorted like there is an invisible sphere pushed onto it.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>“Ku…you've done it now.…But what was that earlier?”</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>While the fight wasn’t over, she briefly toured around the pillar of light. Then, Mana gasped. Shidou was floating, surrounded by the light of Reiryoku.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>Hearing her voice, Shidou slowly turned his eyes to Mana.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>His consciousness is hazy, his eyes blurry, he looked like he was drugged by something.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>Then, his lips parted something to Mana.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>Shidou whispered with a gentle voice.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>After listening to Shidou’s words, Mana knitted her eyebrow; something was off with what he just said.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>On the surface it sounds like Shidou is worrying about her body. That is understandable, since at this very moment, Mana is still fighting with Ellen and got a serious blow from her just earlier.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>However — for some reason, Mana thought that Shidou was also trying to say something else.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>Shidou, in a state of ecstasy, opened his mouth and continued.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>"I was… worried about you. Ever since you've been kidnapped by those DEM guys… but I'm glad… I'm really glad…"</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>"......Kidnapped? Nii-sama, what are you saying?"</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>"Mio ......Didn’t that person help you out?”</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>"What are you talking about, Nii-sa —" Before she could finish, she felt a sharp pain on her head. She pushed her forehead with her hand and frowned.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>It is very clear that this is not a simple headache. - Mio. The instant Shidou spoke that name, a scene she never seen before came flashing in her head.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>The scenes in her head were changing like a camera shutter. She saw the park where she played with her friend, a teacher teaching in a class, her birthday where Shidou celebrated with her.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>The moment that girl came to mind, her vision began to flicker.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>For some reason, Mana couldn't remember the girl's face. She knew she know her, but —</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>And that was when something interrupted her thoughts. Mana heard Ellen's voice from above her, "— Lost in your thought in front of me? You underestimated me a bit too much." Ellen followed her words by preparing for an attack.</ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr>At that moment, Ellen has landed towards her side, and raised her <caledfwlch>.</caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch>But it was too late; Mana was in a state of panic.</caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch>However, she has not been burned by a laser knife.</caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch>Before <caledfwlch>, could hit her, Shidou resorted to using the spiritual power surrounding him to block the magic powered sword.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Ellen issued a surprised voice, while staring irritably at Shidou.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>"— Itsuka Shidou. Don't you look so wonderful right now. Even though I don't know what happened, I can see why Ike wants you that much." Ellen said, while her lips gave a fearless smile.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>But in contrast, Shidou could only make a grim look.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Growling like a wild animal, his breathing became more and more disorderly.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>At that moment, the spiritual power that curled around Shidou increased its intensity and blew away both Ellen and Mana who were nearby. "......!"</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Mana deployed a territorial field to absorb the impact. Stopping mid-air, she raised her voice and shouted.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>"Nii-sama! What is this! And what was that earlier — who is Mio-san!?"</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>But Shidou did not answer. Even though they weren’t far apart, Shidou couldn't hear any of Mana’s words. He kept growling like a beast and continued releasing an enormous amount of spiritual power.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Anyone could see from a glance that Shidou is behaving irrationally, but if possible, Mana would have wanted to ask him more.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>However, her current opponent is the world’s most powerful wizard. She could not allow herself for even the slightest negligence. Mana grinded her teeth and averted her eyes away from Shidou.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>"Cough ...... cough ......, Is everybody okay!?"</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>In the party hall now destroyed by the light of Spirit Power, Kotori raise up her voice asking if everyone is okay, while coughing from a cloud of dust.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Then, from the side came a familiar voice.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>"Umu......It's not important. But, just what had happened ......?"</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Tohka got up from the ground to look around. At the same time Kotori was also raising her head.</caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch>Shidou‘s earlier attack suddenly opened a large hole in the celling and wall. However, it looks like the spirits and <ratatoskr>staffs were all safe. Soon after, a voice had echoed from around.</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>"Are you okayー!?"</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>“Kotori-san!"</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>But within it, after hearing an an unexpected voice, Kotori could not help but widen her eyes.</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>"The voice, is that ......!?"</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>Yes, the voice came from Shidou’s real sister, Takamiya Mana.</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>More than that, beside her was a DEM’s magician. Ellen was also wearing her CR-Unit, and slowly raised her knife.</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>"Mana! What are you doing ......!"</ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr>Ellen quickly departed from the line of sight. In response, to Kotori, Mana expand her <wolf>on her right hand and raised up her voice.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>"I'll tell you the details later! For now… I'm leaving Nii-sama to you!"</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>The two flew into the sky, Ellen issued a slash. Magical light scattered like sparks from the collision.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>So, she was the countermeasure that Reine meant. Kotori said as she scratched the back of her hair.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>"That girl really ...... she disappeared without even tell me her contact information......!"</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>However, it really was good that she was keeping Ellen busy. Kotori would really like to complete Mana’s request of saving Shidou.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Seeing Shidou's appearance, Kotori unintentionally let out a trembling voice.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>This is neither the usual gentle Shidou, nor is it the previous playboy Shidou.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>The “thing” standing there releasing the colored light could not have been called a human.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Standing at the center, the dense spiritual force around Shidou was swirling on and off like a heartbeat. Kotori felt a slight shock from this phenomenon. The air, ground, and space were all shaking in response to Shidou’s power.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>No, more than that. Part of the spiritual power was forming the shape of a metal fragment. It was like a spirit that was wearing her astral dress.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Then, after seeing what Shidou looked like.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Kotori heard an ominous siren from her headset.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>This was a different alarm from the one that detects a spacequake or a spirit’s abnormal mental status.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Kotori has only heard that alarm once before that.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>And that was when they told her to remember it during testing, saying it would be the best if she never hears it again.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>"...... Of all the lies people give -"</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Kotori was able to feel her fingers trembling slightly. She feels like there is a crack in her very existence. Her heart started beating fast. Breathing became difficult. Her view started distorting. Kotori feel like it's difficult for her to just standing still.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Kotori's consciousness was disrupted by the sound of the alarm of the demise for few moments.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>On the issue of humanity, she could not believe the roar Shidou gave. Like an electrical discharge phenomena, the spiritual power crackling, illuminating the surroundings.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Shidou bent his legs, stepping on the ground for take-off. The height between the ground and underground facility meant nothing to him. Shidou mowed down the trees in his way and started moving to somewhere.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>"Kotori-san! Are you okay! We should follow Darling!"</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>Kotori raised up her face at Miku's words. Kotori tried opening her mouth, but no words are coming out. Kotori can't say it because saying it would means she decided to do perform the absolutely worst instruction.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>However, in Kotori’s thoughts… For this country.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>For this world.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>For humanity.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>And most importantly for Shidou himself.</wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf>It is the mission of <ratatoskr>'s commander — the responsibility of the one who has been saved by Shidou five years ago.</ratatoskr></wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>

<caledvwlch><v><wolftail><caledvwlch><wolftail><ratatoskr><caledfwlch><caledfwlch><ratatoskr><wolf><ratatoskr>Kotori open her mouth, tried to keep the shake in her voice to minimum.</ratatoskr></wolf></ratatoskr></caledfwlch></caledfwlch></ratatoskr></wolftail></caledvwlch></wolftail></v></caledvwlch>
