Clip exposure, the savior Kamijou Touma

"Since he was the lifelong dream pursued by the people of a sect who worshipped him as a spiritual leader, he was also the one who once ruled over and trusted those believers."

"How can Kamiya, who is still fighting alone here, be considered to have her full strength in the true sense?"

Touma knew very well that this incident was caused by him.

I also understand that this story will end with my arrival.

But this process.

This is the time when Kanzaki Kaori was fighting the enemy.

It shouldn't have ended with such a tragic and absurd ending. There must be other more reasonable and feasible ways.

This is his wish.

However, the followers of the Amakusa sect in front of the screen were also in deathly silence at this moment.

They seemed to have figured it out.

Even if I try my best.

I want to help Kamijou Kaori even if it means risking my life.

But--

"There are really many things in this world that you can achieve as long as you want to." The man who served as the acting Pope, Jian Gongzhaizi, also trembled his arms slightly unwillingly.

Although he knew very well... he knew very well! The protagonist of this story from the beginning to the end was not himself and others as Amakusa.

All of this was done to help the spiky-haired boy who could bring gratitude and appreciation to the words of Jian Gong Zhai even when just looking at them through the camera.

But it is at a moment like this...

In this critical moment, hope can prove its value.

The saintly collapse that his group had cultivated hard seemed to be of no use as it was easily defeated by the other side.

If everything is like this...

"Do we even have anything worth fighting for?"

In the Amakusa crowd, someone suddenly blurted out such a sentence.

immediately.

An atmosphere of "there is nothing more sad than a dead heart" began to spread.

Looking at his fellow believers who were gradually sinking into despair, Jian Gongzhaizi moved his lips silently and could no longer say anything inspiring as he was as optimistic and cheerful as before.

This defeat was unprecedented and full of despair. What was the meaning of everything they had done so far?

With this desperate mood, the stubborn hearts of the believers seemed to be discouraged for a while.

Although it might not be long before they are excited, but... at least at this moment, they all looked at Kamisaki Kaori who was being beaten unilaterally in the video with pain and guilt;

Afterwards, many people couldn’t bear to watch the Pope’s one-sided destruction and bowed their heads.

but!

There is one exception!

In this Amakusa sect scene, there was one member who held her noble and stubborn head high from beginning to end.

Itsuwa, the girl from Amakusa-shiki, who doesn't believe that the long night is coming because Kamijou Touma's flag will be planted in front of Amakusa-shiki's door;

But beyond that, there is something more important than her personal feelings.

"Your Holiness, we haven't lost yet. Why should we just give up?"

The clear voice of the reserved, shy, yet strong girl gradually came through the earphones of every compatriot, and they all looked over at the same time.

Looking at this thin group of compatriots who were extremely stubborn and looking up at the video at this moment, her eyes seemed to have flames rising and burning.

She stared at the video closely.

This sincere and clear trust has never wavered.

Jian Gong Zhaizi was stunned and looked at Wuhe's figure.

After a while, the acting Pope suddenly laughed.

Oh, I was really inspired by this little girl.

That’s right, it is because of their dream of admiring the sight of this saint that the Amakusa-shiki have persisted until now, isn’t it?

Maybe he was just a witness, maybe the Pope had no means to defeat the other party.

But as long as Kamijou Kaori hasn't given up...

"Kanzaki... No! The Pope hasn't even lost yet, she's just at a disadvantage!"

The familiar tone of voice returned to Jian Gongzhaizi's lips. He smiled, looked around at his companions, and suddenly shouted loudly:

"I say, you guys are all grown men, why can't you show your usual courage at this critical moment?"

"What Wuhe said is absolutely correct!"

At this moment, his pupils were reflecting the scene of Kamijou Kaori's difficult battle, and along with it, the sound of the current acting Pope gradually recovering was heard.

"Our Pope will not lose! Even if he does fail, we will only need to consider the consequences when it really happens. As for now, should we think about loss and despair?"

That's wrong!

It's about fighting.

Whether the Pope is happy or not, at this moment, as members of the church, we are all the same, even if we are just abandoned stray dogs.

If you don't help your protectors and the compatriots you recognize in your heart, you will regret it for the rest of your life if you miss this opportunity!

With strong emotions, Jian Gong Zhaizi suddenly clenched his fists and stared at the video with stern eyes.

Seeing Shen Lie being beaten to a pulp by the people behind him, he did not waver.

Seeing that Kanzaki had no power to resist, he still persisted.

He was looking forward to it and waiting.

Until a miracle...really happens.

In the video——

The battle between Kanzaki and the rear is drawing to a close.

The end point of the one-sided crushing is to explore the reasons why Kamiya became furious and out of control.

"You are so angry because of that incident, right? The reason why ordinary people with an overwhelming gap in strength and the members of the Amakusa style were dragged into the battle between the saints is because of this."

The water behind explained why it was natural for Kanzaki Kaori to be angry.

"But this is a battlefield. There are differences in innate abilities, the performance of weapons in hand, and the number of combatants. The rules of the battlefield are to attack openly even though both sides are aware of the differences. If you hate being dragged into this, then you shouldn't have been standing here in the first place. Get out of here as soon as possible."

His words were like fine steel, there was nothing that could be refuted.

"It's impossible to ask powerless people to fight." She seemed to be trying her best to refute.

It also seemed like she was clarifying some obsessions that only she understood.

but..

Incredibly ridiculous.

"This is the mercy that the woman who is also a saint said." Houfang Zhishui in front of the screen shook his head: "However, this is wrong."

"Oh? What do you think?" At this time, the voice of the Pope of the Roman Orthodox Church sounded from behind Hou Fang Zhi Shui. The old and wise ruler looked at Hou Fang Zhi Shui with his eyes open without any deviation, as if expecting him to say something in line with correct values.

Want to hear the truth from a mercenary?

"All it takes is a true soldier to fight against the blades. She lacks more than just strength."

Houfang Zhishui looked at the girl in the video who was scolded by him until her pupils dilated and she was dazed. She didn't have any sympathy: "It's her mentality. She essentially thinks that her existence is completely different from others. She is a weirdo who transcends the norm. And because of this..."

[When her allies came to her aid, Kanzaki Kaori's reaction was as angry as if a group of powerless ants were being trampled to death by heavily armored soldiers]

"Before I said this, she didn't consider this group of people as an actual fighting force, nor did she think of acknowledging their courage to face me."

Even though their values ​​and positions were opposite, Houfangzhishui did not look down on these soldiers who dared to charge to the front line of the battlefield.

and..

"I think she should understand this." He glanced down and stared at the video calmly.

As he spoke, the old Pope seemed particularly satisfied and glanced down in the same manner.

...

"Those who clash with swords will be fine as long as they are true soldiers..."

A cool breeze blew across Kamiya Kaori's face.

On the other side of Academy City.

She was watching the clip on TV at the moment and was stunned by these words.

The strong... the weak...

There is no difference..

On a real battlefield.

Just soldiers fighting and struggling...that's all.

"Hey, Kanzaki?" Stiyl noticed something was wrong and was about to interrupt.

However, he didn't expect that he would be stopped by Tsuchimikado as soon as he opened his mouth.

The blond boy wearing sunglasses said with interest, "Okay, Stiyl, now it's time for Big Sister Kanzaki to think about this matter herself. You are not allowed to make any suggestions casually. This is a blasphemy to her and her Amakusa style, meow~"

Amakusa-style blasphemy..

Stiyl spat when he heard the voice, but silently picked up the cigarette, because after calming down a little after being stopped, he found that there was nothing wrong with what Tsuchimikado said.

Being a partner does not mean you have the right to interfere with other people's decisions.

"You're right, Tsuchimikado."

The fire mage gave up the idea of ​​expressing his views, bent down and sat on the steps beside the balcony, gazing at the blue sky.

This period of silence now is completely left to Kanzaki to handle everything.

This is also true for the cool and cute girl with black hair tied in a high ponytail.

She was whispering the following words softly.

Indeed, she had had the same thought.

In a battlefield that is too merciless, the combat power of a single person is insignificant, whether they are well-trained or untrained. No matter how good their equipment is, if they want to die, they will die. If you don't like this, you can only let the saint Kanzaki solve all the risks first, and then let them fight in an absolutely safe battlefield. There is no other way.

Even if we simply consider the combat effectiveness of both sides, we will still be wary of the possibility of an ambush. But the real battlefield is different. Often, some nightmare-like accidents will suddenly occur at the perfect moment, and then everything will be under control again. It is impossible to perfectly prevent these accidents from happening.

Kanzaki attributed the cause of this to his own immaturity.

Because of her lack of strength, she was unable to control the ever-changing battle situation, causing important companions to be injured. "At that time," she really thought so. At that time, as the Queen, Kanzaki could not bear this fact, and as a result, she left Amakusa Shiki.

but,

(How...)

Kamiya Huochi overlapped himself with the water behind him and clenched his molars.

(What an arrogant idea)

The Amakusa-style magicians died because they were too weak. If all of them had the same power as a saint, they would not have died.

Is this really the case? This is impossible.

So what about that young boy, the one who fought with everyone, won with everyone, and laughed with everyone, who was he?

In the end, they were unable to say that they would fight together. Wasn't it because Kamijou Kaori didn't believe in the strength of the Amakusa-style Cross? It wasn't the personality or the spirit, but the strength. Because of this, Kamijou couldn't trust anyone with his back. Wouldn't this only lead to the collapse of the alliance and unnecessary defeats?

Is the Amakusa-style Cross Sect really that weak?

Who is the truly weak one?

In this miserable state, even if I managed to win, what would I get?

Even if the times develop as everyone hopes, even if the world moves in a better direction, can we take those who have not been able to become the winners until the very end with us?

He will definitely be left behind.
