Lead the other world.

Takumi, who continues to descend further down the stairs, finally reached its end point, the one large room that is the purpose.

Ripples of light spread from the center of the room, thick columns of ice, to the floor and walls of the room at regular intervals like heartbeats.

And there's a girl in that ice column, unconscious and powerless, with her arms and feet tied tight in a chain linked to the collar in the form of a cross, and that chain pierces the wall and the floor.

Takumi opened her eyes and began to run when she realized the girl was a citrus.

"Citrus!

Takumi, who grabbed an orange infarct wrapped around her spirits and raised her eyesight, noticed that the citrus seemed pale at first glance to live without a single millimeter of movement, leaving traces of blood at the edge of her mouth and massive traces of blood around her that made her want to turn away.

And at the same time, I could notice him swinging up from the bottom to the top trying to break it both ways with a long, pale sword as he approached himself in an instant to kill himself.

"Huh!?

With a long sword approaching with momentum, Takumi jumped backwards in an instant, spiritually avoiding it.

"You..."

Takumi lost her words in surprise when she avoided it and confirmed who had ambushed her.

There stood a dark-haired, pale-haired man dressed in silver armor over here, murderous.

But that's not where Takumi was surprised. Because the man was young enough to be no different from himself.

And another, silver armor on the long sword of the pale. That corresponded to what Shino had heard beforehand and to the characteristics of one of the persons who had received the citrus fruit.

Zain named Takumi with her long sword in the front as she felt surprised to see herself at a distance.

"It's the guardian knight's zain. That's what you are..."

I cut the words and guessed against Takumi's dark hair and black eyes and the information I was getting.

"Hey, is that your citrus brother?

Takumi stares at Zain in the words and answers in a strong tone.

"Don't get used to calling my sister's name. How dare you?"

While Takumi had a hateful and murderous eye, Zain, who didn't change one expression, made an unexpected suggestion to Takumi.

"Will you just leave me like this? Now I'm gonna do something I didn't see."

I heard that. What's Takumi saying? Though confused by this guy, he didn't look very lying from the serious eyes of Zain looking at this one without changing his expression at all.

But you can't do that. I can't face the people who gave me a hand for that, and most importantly, citrus fruit is an irreplaceable and dear sister. There was not a single element to be lost, and the answer was out.

"You can't do that. Why are you asking me questions that I know the answer to?

After a period of silence, Zayn answered with a look that seemed complicated.

"Somehow, because I don't want you to die in this place, my citrus brother,"

"You think you can beat me?

Ask Takumi more spirits as he reacted and turned to kill Zain that he could kill Takumi.

With such a willingness to kill Takumi, but not moving at all, Zain regained his long sword.

"Oh, I'm stronger. Not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of feelings. You want to give it a try?

Takumi exhaled once loudly into Zain's statement, where he felt certain confidence in the back of that provocative statement.

"I'm going to do that more than I did. And I'm not going to miss you for taking citrus vegetables."

Takumi began to sharpen her senses by pulling through the orange infarct while suppressing the angry emotions that gushed from the bottom of her heart, noticing the blood marks around the citrus vegetables and the blood sticking to her face.
