Chapter 183 – Aoba / The Desperate Magical Sword

Their connected lips separated .
Their connected eyes didn’t .
In front of him was the same strange beauty .
Pure white, jet black .
Sharp as a tempered blade, strange as a fluttering ray of sunshine .
He looked on her .
A girl with no ability to reply . The barbary of his lips opened up a moment of silence between them .
After a moment, she opened those well-shaped lips silently to speak .

「That was…my first . 」
「Wha?」
「My first…」
「…」

Taiyou swallowed those words .
Her first…her first kiss .
His mind became gleeful after hearing her admit that to him .
A strange delusion, and an arbitrary request .
Those two things blossomed rose-colored inside of his mind .
Maybe…just maybe…that request he would make could happen .
However, that was the end of that story .
Shirokiyami simply looked at him silently, and he could see that she hadn’t completely understood what had happened .
In the air flew a red colored fairy .

「Some-thing…is there . 」
「Yeah…oh! That’s Hera . 」
「She’s al-ways…been there?」


「Yeah . She can fly even with broken wings, and you’ve seen us watch her countless times yourself . That was always her . 」
「Your power…too?」

Taiyou nodded .

「The power…that messed up your brain…too?」
「Don’t say my brain’s messed up!」

He yelled at her, and then cleared his throat and nodded .

「Yeah, I got all of my power from her . 」
「Natsuno-kun!」

Aoba shouted, and he somewhat knew what it was about, but raised his hand to stop her .
No matter what anyone said, Taiyo’s power…all the power that he had came completely from Hera .

「I…see . 」
「That’s why I wanted to stop her . 」

As soon as he said that, he fell down prostrate on his hands and knees .
In a request .
He could feel Aoba swallow her words above him . That meant nothing to him now, as he bowed his head to Shirokiyami and begged for her help .

「…」

In an instant, his sensation from there was gone .
When he raised his head, he saw a white apparition floating .
Its legs weren’t on the ground, nor was it moving quickly .
It was a heavenly woman . It seemed to have wings from its back as it turned to face Hera and Shirokiyami .
In the confusion, Shirokiyami unsheathed Gyakuten .
From its sheath it flashed in a strike too fast for the eyes . .
It struck the red fairy directly, and sent it flying .
There was no sound or shock .
An attack so fast that it might make others turn their heads and wonder if something had happened .
They all looked at an unexpected incident as they held their breath .
A swordfighter had engraved a slice in the wall, damage that told the story of a great battle .
From one side of the wall to the other, there were a diagonal strikes, stories of a sword fight .


Immediately after, the building shifted . A creaking sound rose up and the upper half of the wall began sliding and fell from the diagonal slash there .
It was an attack with no past comparison .
Anger .
And in that attack, Taiyou could feel that anger .

「Sorry . 」
「It’s…fine . 」
「No, I really am sorry . 」
「Instead of…that…you want to stop…that, right?」
「Oh…yeah . 」
「I see…then I’ll…stop it . But my secret tech-nique didn’t work . 」
「That was a secret technique?!」
「She cut through the building, after all . 」

Aoba muttered in a shocked tone…and sounding a bit puzzled too .
They could understand it was her secret technique, as the building itself was cut up, slid and fell in a strange looking scene .
To the contrary, it was surprising as a quick jab .
A secret technique that huge…that didn’t work . Hera returned silently after being knocked away .

「Taiyou…chan…a new…face…desu . 」
「You need to…take care of yourself . 」

A comment like that at a time like this .
Even with a response like this, Taiyou could smell something sour .
Hera began flying quicker back to Taiyou with no look at any of the others there .
Also, Shirokiyami had cut Hera back with a strong slash . You could see it was a long, sweeping cut from the wall behind, but Hera came back without any damage .

「She even…fell back when I cut…her . 」
「I was told that she can only take damage from me . 」
「Oh…」
「A strange thing though . You can physically hit her, but she can’t take any damage . 」
「I guess that’s why you can call her the joker . 」
「…geez, what should we do? I can’t go easy on her, and if anyone else attacks her, she doesn’t get a scratch . 」


「…geez, what should we do? I can’t go easy on her, and if anyone else attacks her, she doesn’t get a scratch . 」
「It’s…fine…」

Shirokiyama nodded and walked forwards . You could see confidence in her face .

「What are you going to do?」
「Another 『Hakutei-hachirin』 . 」

As soon as she said that, she cut Hera again with her 「Gyakuten」 .
She followed Hera bouncing along the ground, and cut her again .
The same scene occurred as before, a one-person rally .
After eight slashes at her, the last strike hit the ground .
Of course, Hera flew around not damaged by this at all .

「Impossible, I guess . 」

Taiyou’s head hung .

「No…look . 」
「Wha? What do you mean?」
「The eight…cut . 」
「What do you mean, the eighth cut?!」

He reacted in amazement as the girl frowned back at him .
He remembered how strongly he had kissed her, and felt a bit guilty .
Without thinking, for a different reason, he was going to fall prostrate in apology .
But Aoba stopped him before he could .

「Natsuno-kun, maybe something…」

She said as she continued staring at Hera .

「Is the red light coming from Hera, getting weaker?」
「What?」

He jolted and looked at Hera .

Shirokiyami looked at Hera too after Aoba’s remark .
It was hard to see at first, but after staring for a while, they watched the red light from Hera pulsate weaker and weaker .

「So the power she took is getting weaker?」
「Power…she…took?」

「Power…she…took?」

Quietly, Shirokiyami turned her head to ask .

「Yeah, I don’t know the reason, but the thing she had before . She was. .h.i.t by it and drew some kind of power, and it became power for her, somehow . I guess the words for it is…life…or spirit, something like that . 」
「I…see . 」

She nodded slightly and said,

「A magic…blade . 」
「A magic blade…it does seem something like that . 」
「So…a measure…of last re-sort . 」
「Last resort?」
「Yes, against the magic…blade . 」

After she whispered this, Shirokiyami walked forward and began her one-person rally again .
The same way, the same rally, and both returned .
Hera was at her wit’s end as Shirokiyami slashed away at her again .
Even more than eight time, never hitting the ground, the rally continued and seemed that t would go on forever .
Sometimes you could hear shouting, but not anything from damage .
They would have seen whomever it was cut to ribbons if it were anyone but Hera .
Shirokiyami continued slashing with a whuff, whup, whuff, whup .
Changes eventually occurred .
The red color emanating from Hera was now fading bit by bit .
It began to dull and the pulsation disappeared .
After this, Taiyou finally realized what Shirokiyami was doing and felt relief .
Dozens of minutes pa.s.sed, and the broken sword finally dropped out of Hera, who now no longer shone red .
Just before it hit the ground, Shirokiyami kicked it and slashed at it endlessly in the air, cutting it into powder .
After all this was finished, Taiyou said,

「Don’t move, I’m going to strike . 」
「Wha?!」
「With a punch . 」
「You have no mercy, Natsuno-kun . 」

With this, Taiyou finally felt that everything was finished .
