26 - 20 Shut up and be mine!

I could feel the power of the phoenix filling my entire body.

Perhaps the transformed phoenix robe is allowing Hinokami-sama's power to spread throughout my entire body.

Or rather, I think he is finally able to control it with his whole body.

It is an armor version of Hinokaguzuchi, so to speak.

The Phoenix Robe acted as a transformer, enabling me to evolve into a combat form that explosively increased my power.

This is the "Suzaku Form.

It is a battle mode characterized by the armor that covers the entire body, the four wings that grow on the back, and the ring of light that shines around the wings like a sunflower.

Oh, you are ......."

I think as I look back at Magmel, who is frozen with an astonished expression.

I'm not very good at this kind of character, but I'll give it a try anyway.

--I'll give it a try anyway.

What are you doing?

Just come with me.

I hold Magmel in my arms like a princess.

Naturally, she stared at me and raised her voice.

What do you mean?　I can walk by myself!　Please let me go!

Calm down for now and check your condition. Calm down and check your condition.

What? ......?"

After a moment of stupefaction, Magmel looked at his body and said.

'Is this ...... fatigue going away?

Yes," he said, "it is. I've got a special power. The first thing to do is to make sure that you are not in a situation where you are not able to use your own body.

"That's ...... what I'm talking about. I'm not using any kind of jutsu technique,......."

How long are you going to hold me?

How long are you going to hold me?　Until we get rid of them all.

What?　How can you do that in this condition?　Are you kidding me?

I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding. So lend me your power.

Don't be ridiculous!　Who would you--?

And.

Just shut up and listen to me!　I need you!

......, yes."

Magmel nodded his head.

I don't know what to do.

The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a good understanding of what you're doing and how to do it.

I've been calling you a lot since a while ago,.......

So, what are you going to do about it,......?"

......What?

I'm not sure what to expect.

What is wrong with him?　I was puzzled, but I couldn't stop now, so I continued the conversation in a forceful mode.

I'm going to support you. So you must exterminate them with your utmost strength. Can you do that?

Yes, yes. ....... Yes. ...... as you wish.

Nodding, Magmael held up the holy staff while I held him.

"Piercing!　Fangs of Pure Light--Sunlight Vermilion!

Once again, Magumer's powerful technique reaped off the demons.

But then she noticed something.

"Isn't your strength decreasing ......?"

Yes," she said. The most important thing to remember is that you can wield unlimited power as long as I continue to support you. Yes, you are a saint, but before that you are a woman. You are too fragile to carry everything. So I will be your support. In return, you must depend on me. Don't take it all on yourself just because you are a saint. Do you understand?

I'll be at ......, yes. I understand. ......

Magmel nodded his head with an intoxicated expression, and it seemed that I was getting a little carried away as well.

Finally, I sneered at him and said, "All right.

All right, then - you're mine from now on. Then you're mine from now on.

◇ ◇And so we staved off the invasion for the time being.

After successfully stopping the invasion, we decided to return to Algren Castle.

I see where you're going with this. I did say that we should go a little bit aggressively and I feel that it worked.

But," Alka said with a rare streak of blue on his forehead, "I don't know if we can be that close.

'I don't recall asking you to get that close to me, ......?

'Yes, no, I did, didn't I?

'Well, here you go, Iguza-sama. Yes, um..."

"Uh, ah, ah ...... ning ...... mooch."

How is it?　Is it good?

Uh, yeah. ......

"Hmm, I'm glad to hear that."

The one laughing so tenderly is, of course, Magmael.

I'm not sure I expected this. ....... So, I take back what I said before, even though it pains me. I'm not going to save this guy anymore, so leave him alone.

"No, even if you say so, ......

I'm not going to say that I'm not. I've already become the property of Iguza-sama. If you don't like my presence, why don't you just go away?

"......?　A new candidate for concubine is asking me, his wife, to leave?

Yes. If that happens, I will be your regular wife. I would rather you do so.

At that moment, Alka pulled out the pathetique on her back.

All right, Iguza," he said. You're about to see something interesting.

Wait a minute!　That interesting thing is something different from the last time, isn't it?

"Ha-ha-ha, you'll just have to wait and see.

Alka was smiling, but I noticed that her eyes were not smiling at all.
