[Reunion]

“Linus-shishou!” (Noelia)

Noelia screams seeing Linus’s body disappeared.

“How dare you killed my master!” (Noelia)

Having had her master, Linus, killed in front of her, Noelia, staring at Gile with murderous eyes, holds up her cane and try to start chanting.

“Stop chanting. Don’t you care about King Frederick’s life? Wench of the annoying Frontier Count!” (Gile)

“Kuh! Coward!” (Noelia)

Having recalled that he has taken King Frederick hostage, Noelia quivers and stops her chanting.

“Everyone has always been praising Lloyd as a hero, but he’s merely an upstart noble who’s formerly an adventurer; how could he had the cheek to sent me a written comment, me, the commander of the Royal Guard Knight Order! The nerve of him! And he even called me an incompetent swordsman!” (Gile)

“My father is a magnificent man who continues to wield his sword for the kingdom and its people. While he holds an important position like yours, he never moves for his own desires!” (Noelia)

Her father insulted, Noelia states so clearly to Gile.

“Both father and daughter are so irritating! Genocider! Erase that wench!” (Gile)

A pale light appears behind Gile, before it flies at Noelia.

“Noelia!” (Frick)

“I can handle it!” (Noelia)

I see several barriers that she has deployed in advance shatter, but she manages to block Genocider’s attack.

“Hey, what’s going on! A person have just turned into bits and disappeared!!”

“What was that pale light just now!”

“Rather than worrying about something like that, we have to save His Majesty immediately!”

“I-I still treasure my life, so I’ll run away!”

With Linus vanished, body and all, in front of them, further chaos spread in the area.

“Leave that damnable irritating wench for now! Erase Alfine this time! Kill anyone who defy me! Kuhihi!” (Gile)

Immediately after a pale light appeared behind Gile again, one of the mirage bodies in the shape of Alfine blows up.

However, the surrounding knights and soldiers got caught up.

“Why us too!?”

“If we stay here, we’re going to end up being killed by Sword Master or that pale light! Fleeing is winning!”

“Gile-dono has gone deranged!”

The knights and soldiers who see their lives in danger forget to rescue King Frederick and begin to flee from the plaza as fast as their legs can carry them.

“Gile! Stop!” (Frick)

Unsheathing Gile, I take advantage of the chaos and close the distance toward Gile who has his sword pointed at King Frederick’s neck.

When I arrive at a close enough distance to knock Gile’s sword off, something suddenly appears in front of me.

A thick arm, which is dozens of times larger than that of a normal person’s, deflects Dayle’s sword tip from its trajectory.

“Fuhihi, you’re the one who have also been getting in my way again and again, aren’t you? Crimson Magic Swordsman Frick! If you hadn’t investigate Abyss Walkers, my plan would have been successful! Kill him, Genocider!” (Gile)

“Kh! Gile!” (Frick)

The Genocider who appeared out of nowhere sends a punch toward me.

It’s hard and fast.

At the very least, this guy’s strength is at demonic dragon class.

After somehow avoiding its fist that tore through the air, I aim to rescue King Frederick who has been taken hostage by Gile but, Genocider doesn’t give me that chance.

“Kuee!”

Avoiding Genocider’s attack, I hear a familiar cry.

Dimol?

No way, I told him not to come because this is the royal capital, yet why?

It seems that the soldiers and knights who have escaped from the plaza also catch sight of Dimol, further spurring the chaos.

“I-it’s a giant wyvern! We’re gonna be eaten!”

“It’s so big like a monster! Don’t tell me, it’s a demonic dragon!”

“For an unidentified monster (Genocider) and a demonic dragon class giant wyvern to appear here, just what has become of the royal capital!”

Dimol who appeared in the sky suddenly dive down, as though he has found me.

Aside from the full-body armor that is the main body of Cinzia, I can see a young blonde adventurer on his back.

“Frick! I made you wait, right! We’re going to give it a good beating, alright! Al, go help Frick.” (Cinzia)

A golem created by Cinzia holds down the rampaging Genocider.

At the same time, the young blonde adventurer jumps off Dimol and lands in front of me.

Blond-haired, blue-eyed, young adventurer.

It was the adventurer who bumped into at the Adventurer’s Guild of Youg Hannotes.

“Al…fine?” (Frick)

“Defeating that monster is the first priority now. Let’s save the talk for later. Crimson Magic Swordsman Frick-san.” (Alfine)

At that moment, I find the appearance of the black-haired Alfine overlapped with that of the blonde adventurer.

I feel my heart beating faster.

Various emotions are mixed in me.

“Al-sama…” (Noelia)

“Noelia-sama, I am going to assist Crimson Magic Swordsman Frick as the adventurer Al right now. Please listen to my story later.” (Alfine)

“I understand.” (Noelia)

That said, Al pulls out the two swords on her waist and rushes towards Genocider at a stunning speed as if she has reverted to before she became the Sword Master Alfine.
