There"s a need to gather time.
Showing shyness and going as slowly as I can without Libra noticing, I carefully gauge the limit of her patience.
「……Though I suppose you don"t want to.」
「What are」
I grab kurozuk.u.me"s body and pull him down on his back.
Pokan, he"s making a face like he"d forgotten all feelings outside of surprise but, I have neither the time nor margin to mind it.
While still wearing my skirt, I open my legs and mount above his stomach.
I couldn"t move if he covered me so that"s out of the question.
「Oya oya, isn"t that quite a.s.sertive imouto disciple. Were you unexpectedly lovers?」
「Please talk as impudently as you please, Libra. Regardless of anything and everything, you"re already finished.」
I give her one glare and, as always she was expressing her unpleasant smile like it was entertaining so it couldn"t be helped.
Right now is……there"s nothing but to follow the flow.
「Ah, his gaze is unexpectedly easy to understand you know? ……Erotic isn"t it.」
I turn my face back to kurozuk.u.me and, it seems his gaze has somehow crawled to the area below my face.
Come to think of it I"ve become sensitive to gazes after getting this body havenn"t I.
Such a gaze wandered from my head to the area of my navel.
It feels creepy……
「I suppose it can"t be helped……」
And, he forcibly averted his face like he was sulking a little.
There"s also Libra"s irritating eyes so, I suppose there"s no way we can stop here.
Our Shion-san"s life and death depends on this.
「Maa I understand though. Men are erotic, that"s the truth isn"t it.」
「What is that triumphant look like you"re being knowledgeable……」
In a different sense than Libra, the one who knows the truth of the world is me alone.
Maa such a thing is fine either way.
I take a breath and, end up taking off my bra.s.siere as well.
As expected I can"t endure kurozuk.u.me"s gaze and hide my b.r.e.a.s.t.s with my arms.
The persuasiveness of the theory that the mind is influenced by the body is high.
My mind is fundamentally my own.
Even so, this is strangely embarra.s.sing.
「……Do you understand the situation?」
As expected I give him a resentful glare.
「I suppose it can"t be helped.」
Is he a parrot?
Furthermore he"s gone and become a bit more defiant than before.
「Are you sullen.」
「You alone……」
Suddenly putting out a serious voice, he looked directly into my eye.
It kind of fl.u.s.ters me.
Moving slightly from being unable to endure……the sensation striking my rear stiffened.
And so I turned pale.
「…………Pervert.」
I understood that even I"d naturally become narrow eyed.
No certainly……it"s that sort of thing though, with this situation……maa, it"s something healthy.
「……I suppose it can"t be helped, with my beloved woman advancing in such a manner.」
「……Ah, is that……so.」
With this situation……no, is it because of?
But because it"s difficult enough to answer to die, I"d like if you could stop just that……
I, can"t answer.
That is extremely regrettable and, as much as I don"t like it it"s harsh.
「Fu, stupid woman aren"t you.」
「……I didn"t expect to be insulted with a nice smile, immediately after a confession.」
What"s with that face like you"ve reached enlightenment.
「Because, you love people too much don"t you. I understand, you"re fundamentally an elf. In short thinking about it normally it"s that sort of thing right?」
The general preferences of elves? He"s talking about that thing is he.
In this case, that certainly does become a cloak of invisibility but……
「That sort of thing is dishonest……I am……」
「There"s no need to purposefully speak until it hurts. Maa, there are also things you don"t want to talk about right.」
「Hii!?」
I was overly surprised and stiffened up.
This kurozuk.u.me, just when I thought he expressed some sort of evil smile, his arms slipped into the s.p.a.ce under my arms.
In short――
「Ah, wai……! Don"t move your hands～～!!」
My b.r.e.a.s.t.s were groped.
「Well this much is」
This guy!
It was too sudden so I panicked but, I trembled in bashful anger.
I threw out a punch toward his face with my power that had become maxed by the blessing of my high elf transformation.
「tsu!」
My howling fist grazed his face and struck the ground with a paper thin margin.
The earth collapsed into a crater shape.
Excellent power.
「Nn?」
「I understand, calm down. Don"t make your veins bulge with that nice smile.」
Kurozuk.u.me readily put his hands up and raised the white flag.
I"m sorry okay, Eclair, Kran.
No since it"s such a situation, I made my resolve but well……
「――Yare yare, because it isn"t like I want to see that sort of thing iss it. Truly uninteresting.」
「……Libra.」
I suppose that certainly is so.
The time is……did I gather a little?
I confirm the position of the sun by looking at the shadows.
Nearly high noon.
Even in this world the sun properly comes straight up at noon.
There"s no way I can ostentatiously check my silver clock.
It wouldn"t be strange, if the preparations activated any moment now but……
「Then, stop this sort of farce already, could you release oneechan for me now?」
Standing up, I also offer kurozuk.u.me a hand.
The kurozuk.u.me with a strangely refreshing face took my hand and stood up.
He put his own jacket on my shoulders so, it was large but I did the act of borrowing it.
……My shirt and jacket are scattered right by us though aren"t they.
Maa, I"m not so insensitive as to disdain kurozuk.u.me"s good will you know.
「It is certain that my interest has declined issn"t it. I"ll teach you something good, imouto disciple.」
Libra made a face dark enough for me to shudder.
「I no longer have any attachment to life. I suppose I can"t win against you but, you could say that"s fine either way. I have no reason to flee in this present where my objective is practically complete……do you understand the meaning of that?」
The meaning in taking a hostage is, so as to force your own demands through.
――If that is no longer necessary?
「St……op……」
I turn pale.
The time……it won"t make it on time.
With direct magic……I won"t make it on time.
Some alternative strategy…… I won"t make it on time.
Having arrived here, my thoughts stopped――――I won"t make it on time.
「I"ll say this first then, good bye imouto disciple. Could you let me hear your best screaming voice? Ahahaa! And after that it"s fine to rely on your anger and rip me to shreds okay!」
As Libra raised a mad sort of laughing voice, she clenched her hand as if crushing an insect.
Shion-san"s slender neck bends――――and.
「――――」
The worst situation.
The worst image.
A falling head, making a sea of blood on the ground.
「Ha……eh?」
My comprehension couldn"t hold anything.
My thoughts stopped and, I merely dazedly stared at the scene in front of my eyes.
Shion-san, collapsed to the earth.
「Your evil nonsense……please stop, already.」
Unlike the scene of the darkness I imagined a moment before――――she"s still safe.
Libra"s, manipulation magic was severed.
「Si, Sitrsan!?」
For the me that had been imagining only the worst imagery, my thoughts hadn"t caught up yet.
「This is……what sort of matter?」
Libra is also surprised.
Most likely, saintess Sitra is dead――it was thought as such.
If that isn"t so, there"s no reason why that girl who was obsessed with winning to that extent released her barrier nor, a reason why she hasn"t shown herself up until now.
「……You used your barrier on me did you.」
Having confirmed the matter of being unable to manipulate her magic power Libra, turned eyes with a vexed feeling to glare at the saintess that came out of the forest.
「For the country, I…………I had a idealdream that I would even sell you my soul to accomplish……However……tsu」
She coughed blood, from her mouth.
The saintess is seriously wounded.
She"s not carrying that conspicuous monk staff and, her lips are dirtied from old traces other than the blood she just coughed up.
If it"s Senbonzakura the monk staff could be cut and, after that Shion-san shouldn"t have had difficulty in at least delivering the finishing blow.
In short, Shion-san……
「Struck with the back of her sword……」
She purposefully, left saintess Sitra alive.
How dangerous, how…………compa.s.sionate.
「Aah, oneechan, oneechan really is……!」
Tears came out.
She"s too much, as my prided ane……!
I suppose she"s apt to take foolish decisions.
I suppose everything has a paper thin margin, this current fortune is the product of coincidence and there are things we will curse as well.
Even so――!
What gave birth to this result is, feelings that surpa.s.sed greed and haggling.
The world does not move, on ill will and calculation alone――!!
「You would defy me? Saintess-samaa?」
「Defy……? I am merely, thinking of, the country, and its people.」
My eyes met with Sitra"s.
――I profusely apologize, this is the most I can do.
「――That"s sufficient!!」
The rest was entrusted to me.
At my voice, Sitra fell with a faint smile as if she"d lost her conscious.
With her magic power returned Libra is trying to do something――
「It"s too slow! ――Activate, Lightning G.o.d Barrier!!」
I confirmed the activation of the time dependent magic I"d prepared.
This is also the bond that the saintess, that Shion-san, that people"s feelings connected.
「Chii, after the saintess it"s, the barrier imouto disciple prepared!」
With this the act of getting the drop on me, is not longer possible within this barrier.
Seriously, because I acted haughtily, such a……!
But we"ve reached the resolution!
「It"s over now, Libra!!」
Libra took around 10 meters distance back――thus!
Dimension jump, by mist transformation and application of s.p.a.cial control.
I appeared directly behind where Libra distanced herself to.
「Tsu! Short range dimensional jump! Are you monstrosity, imouto disciple――!!」
――I punched her.
One shot into the cheeks of the unusually truly surprised Libra, I graced her with a punch accompanied by muscular strength comparable to Aim"s.
Resistance――it"s there!
Libra tumbles across the earth, as a magnificent cloud of dust rises.
「……Normally, I"d be satisfied with this though wouldn"t I.」
But it"s absolutely impossible, I can"t end this with this.
This time alone I"ll see it through to the end.
I have that resolve.
「Fu, ahahahaa, that worked you know.」
Libra got up, while spitting out a broken tooth.
Unlike her speech and expression, when looking at how she"s staggering it doesn"t seem it"s the case that she has room to spare.
「I see, given this s.p.a.ce there"s no advantage to distance regardless of where I go. As expected of the strongest. There"s no falsehood in that slogan iss there.」
Libra deployed a magic system.
Fleeing?
No, this is the indication of something being summoned here is it.
「Your special reserve or such?」
「Aah, well it would be fine to call it the culmination of my work. The birth of a G.o.d slayer.」
The magic system"s magic power swelled but, there"s still no sign of a transfer.
What is this?
「Do you think, I"ll give you the time to watch over that?」
「Who knows.」
「……」
I really don"t understand, just what is inside this person"s heart.
But if I end up hesitating here, it"d be the second rendition of my previous error I guess.
「――Good bye, Libra.」
I made my decision.
I did a dimensional leap to directly in front of Libra.
Without even giving her the time to react.
I softly placed my hand on the center of her chest.
「――Lightning・Impact.」
I reached, victory, by thoroughly burning all of Libra"s living organs.
A fatal injury, no mistake.
Her body shuddered once, from the blow that ended her life.
Before I even separated, Libra crumbled to the ground with her arms and legs spread.
「……I"ll at least, make a grave for you.」
I take my eyes off from, my dead ane disciple with a warped smile still affixed to her.
「――There"s no need! Saa, watch closely! The product of my life"s work, be completed by doing the act of my sacrifice! Eat! My avaricious wish! Imouto disciple"s anger! The despair saturating the battlefield!」
She"s, still alive――!!
The magic system shined enough to be blinding.
Libra"s body became black particles and was sucked into the magic system.
Nay――『Something』was consumed from that battlefield.
「This is!? Ishtar・Edge!!」
I judged it dangerous so, I tried testing whether I could destroy the magic system.
However the magic power itself was sucked into it.
No good is it!
The risk in touching it directly is too large.
This is what it means that even if she"s killed she won"t just die――!
「Libra, your tenacity is……incredible.」
In regards to that one point, I end up honestly feeling she"s incredible.
「Ahahahahaa! Aah, this is not a bad end as a researcher, I don"t feel anything but ease of heart.」
Libra"s body turns to a particulate state and, begins to disappear.
Her body itself is offered as a sacrifice just as she stated.
At this point, there"s no longer anything that can be done.
「……I suppose it"s fine, I"ll observe it for you. What may happen.」
While taking in something that wasn"t good from the battlefield, a『being』began to materialize within the magic system.
「――Experimental body NO107. Shall I name her Iona? Saa, it"s the beginnings of a G.o.d slayer isn"t it!! Ahahahahahahaha――――――――!!!!」
Libra departed while seeming satisfied, leaving a loud laugh behind.
Without leaving even a trace in this world, she thoroughly sunk herself into the object of her research.
I even ended up sensing honor in that way of life.
「……」
And so, the『G.o.d slayer』candidate"s form appeared from the magic system.
Black hair black eyes, besides that――――her figure is no different from my own.
No, my eyes aren"t that sharp.
There are parts that are different.
Just this close resemblance, rather than saying sister it"d be more fitting as clone……
In short it"s that sort of thing is it……
「――Experimental body NO107. Code name, Iona, acknowledged.」
The naked girl murmured, with a clear monotonous voice.
――She instantly, leaped directly to my side.
「――Eh?」
「Appropriating.」
Suddenly, with no impact at all.
By the time I"d noticed, my left wrist had been cut off.
「Uu――――AAAAAAAAAAa!!!」
My magic and defense were all overcome!!
「I see, this bracelet, won"t come off. Change of plan. Component a.n.a.lysis――Grasped. Reconstruction possible.」
Saying only that, she discarded my wrist with Sylv・Faeria on it as if it was trash.
The girl Libra expected to be a G.o.d slayer glared down at us and, turned her face to the battlefield as if she was observing it.
「Fairy of Silver Lightning, level of threat is 80%. Other threats have been grasped. Probability of victory is indeterminable. Excess is forbidden. Retreat for today.」
The black girl disappeared from the magic system, with an unperturbed declaration.
Chasing her now is……I suppose it"s pointless.
「Ku……Heal.」
To say I picked up my own wrist and reattached it, it ended up being a horrifying experience.
If she had aimed for a critical spot from the start I"d actually have defended with mist transformation but, it"s impossible for me to constantly protect my entire body.
I look at the black sooty earth.
Libra, went and left an incredible parting gift.
There"d be no problem at all if that merely lived somewhere in the world without hurting anyone but……
「……The White Witch, departed then.」
The kurozuk.u.me that came to my side let out, thoughts with all sorts of feelings in them.
「Eei, though it seems the Black G.o.d Slayer-san has been born in her place doesn"t it……」
Experimental body NO107, Iona……
Yare yare, my head hurts.
Now then, what"s more important right now is.
「Oneechan……」
……Finally.
I plodded over to Shion-san"s side and lowered my hips.
I use my full power with Heal and heal her injuries.
It"s an awful injury……
It isn"t healing readily.
And so――
「――Nn, hey, Alice.」
Overwhelmed, I fall upon my oneechan who gave a light greeting as soon as her eyes opened.
「Oneechan!!」
「Owaa, ah～, I made you worry didn"t I.」
Patting, she stroked my head as if she was soothing a child.
It made me extremely relieved……
「No……because I somehow, believed in my world first oneechan.」
That"s a bit of a secret from my other comrades though.
Shion-san got up while still being held by me and, looked around her.
「Ah, Solt and……Sitra is it.」
The kurozuk.u.me raising his hand lightly and, the saintess fallen a little ways off.
「Alice.」
「I understand. Because I wasn"t able to talk with Sitrsan, very much. Let"s find common ground, with Marisan included.」
So as to invite the future wished for by everyone.
If it"s for that purpose, I"ll do my best any number of times.
