A Misunderstood Mentor

"... punch your thoughts at Takumi?

Standing in the middle of the round table, Alice declared grandly.

"Then it's from the eagle"

The sudden Alice intrusion makes everyone at the Ten Australian Girls' Club abrupt.

That would be so.

This meeting was held to determine who would inherit Shiloh from me and fight Alice.

If Alice comes before that, the meeting will no longer make sense.

"... what happened to those three?

The first person to speak to Alice, who stood at the center of the round table, was Chairman Barbaroy.

"I turned it off because I was in the way. There's not even any dust left."

"Hmm. Right. After all, there seems to be a gap."

... who are those three?

Chairman Barbaroy laughs when someone says it could have been Alice's sacrifice.

"Not one of them is dead. It wasn't the dummy King Goblin created that disappeared."

Pickle, and Alice's expression distort for a moment.

But it went right back to normal.

"I don't care. Anyway, I'll break it all later."

Indeed, Alice is assimilated to Crowe and stronger.

We could also fight each other with Shilo, who was no match at all.

Yet why?

Like Chairman Barbaroy, I don't feel the strength I had before on Alice right now.

Yes, Alice's strength should never have been just the power.

"So, what thoughts have you come to bump into Takumi?

I thought everyone was upset about Alice's appearance.

But there is only one person who looks straight at Alice and doesn't move.

"... Linden Lindbergh"

Alice stares, but Lynn doesn't shake at all.

On the contrary, smile and provoke Alice.

"What's going on? Why don't you see Takumi, not me? Or are you embarrassed and can't even see your face?

"Huh, huh, what a fool, you can't be like that. Ugh"

Gigigi, you seem to hear a blunt noise.

I can't help it, Alice turns her neck towards me.

"Ta, ta, takumi"

"Oh, my God, Alice"

Guru, and the momentum spun Alice's neck on the other side.

For a moment, I think I broke my neck and flew.

"So, are you okay? Alice."

"Hey, it's nothing. It's okay."

Alice answers while keeping her neck down.

I did a lot of damage to Alice unexpectedly.

"Ta, ta, takumi"

"Oh, my God, Alice"

The exact same scene makes it repeat.

But this time Alice won't turn away.

"The eagle is about Takumi!!

"Spatial Magic [Pole] Infinite Corridor"

Lynn next door squeaks so unexpectedly.

Suddenly, countless small spiral staircases (spirals) appeared around Alice.

"Become!?

"There's no way I'm gonna let you say it."

Around Alice, the spiral staircase wraps around.

"If you don't assimilate with something like that, you don't deserve to be here because you can't do anything"

"Toys like this (toys) Oops!

With an invisible slaughter, Alice strikes down all the spiral stairs.

But the spiral staircase, which should have been shattered, regenerates as if it had rewound time, further surrounding Alice.

"Reflect for a while."

"Linden Lindbergh ah!!

The spiral staircase completely covers Alice's body.

Still, the spiral staircase becomes condensed as it rotates around.

And at the end of the day, as it was sucked into space, the spiral staircase, every Alice, disappeared.

"Li, Lin, A, Alice. Ha?

"... trapped. Inside a corridor that loops forever."

"What?"

Could Alice stay like this and not come back all the time?

"Are you worried? Even though Alice could destroy the world if she came back."

"Oh, yeah. For me, Alice..."

I didn't get the words to go on.

What the hell is Alice to me?

I picked it up at a young age and lived with it for a little while.

I've been strangely nostalgic, and I take it upon myself to mistake me for the most powerful thing in the universe.

What did I think of Alice like that?

A hands-on daughter?

No, I'm not.

When we met again at the Dawu Guild, I was talking about Alice...

Pissy, something sounded like a snarl.

My thoughts are interrupted and I look around.

There was a little crack in the space in front of me.

"... lying, right!? Whatever it is, it's too soon."

Pissy, pissy, and spatial hives expand.

"You're a mess, you better run, Kana"

The voice of Shilo in me was mixed with an unprecedented rush.

"Completely fused"

Paaaaaaaaa, and the space in front of me bursts and something overflows from inside.

It's a small spiral staircase that's fallen apart.

But now I don't play it like I just did.

Covered in something like black smoke, it melts in a mess.

Dang, black feet pop out of the cracked space and step on the round table.

The round table splattered in pieces just like the spiral staircase.

"I..."

Whoever comes out of space slowly is not the one I know.

But the silhouette, no matter what you think, is hers.

"No way, you're not Alice, are you?

It was no longer just black destruction in the shape of a person, in itself.

"Takumi, I'm sorry."

Siro's voice is no longer in a hurry.

Continue the words as you gave up completely.

It's the end.

A black mass like Alice unleashed its power.
