Umarekawatta “Kensei” Wa Raku o Shitai

74. The Presence of Nortoria

Iris rushes - after the fleeing arias.

Already, the distance has been greatly separated. It accelerates more and more while trying to jump over the town, over buildings and one after another.

(Can't catch up...... eh)

Illis' physical abilities are high, and if reinforced with magic, he can't escape first in the majority of humans.

Still, the only way Aria and the others can keep their distance from Illis would be that they are highly capable.

(I, again...)

Illis was at full strength.

I don't care about my surrounding eyes or anything. Seriously, Illis tried to catch up with Aria.

But I can't catch up. No matter how much you run, that distance won't clog.

Eventually, Illis loses sight of Aria and stops on her feet.

"Ha, ha..."

Out of breath, Illis kneels on the spot.

Escaped - Also, Illis has lost sight of Aria.

At first I could only drop them off without even being able to chase them, this time I couldn't catch up with them.

My body is heavy and won't listen to what I have to say to get it moving right away.

Even if I could move, Iris wouldn't be able to find Aria anymore - that's all I think about.

"... Ha, don't be ridiculous"

But Illis denies it.

I swore I wouldn't give up any more - I swore in front of Alta that I would definitely get Iris back. There is no lie or falsehood in that word, and no matter what happens, Illis will not give up or give up any more.

Paris and thunderstorms fill the perimeter of Illis.

- Squeezing "Purple Electricity," Iris rose again.

"Absolutely, I'm gonna find you..."

With a determined expression, Illis declares to say so himself.

As if discharging around, Illis' thunderbolts run down the ground. It continues to stretch farther and farther everywhere.

- Again, Illis ran out of town.

In the dark basement, Aria was just squatting powerless.

In the end, he disappeared from before Illis with determination, and even though he appeared before Illis as an enemy - he couldn't do anything.

To stop Illis, to stop Kufilio.

Standing in front of such an Illis are Kufilio and the man in white.

"I'm disappointed in you, Noria."

"Doctor..."

"I gave him a chance to convince Iris twice. But you failed. You could have killed him on the spot, but you wouldn't have done it either. Without being able to use it as a result, we just have to run away. Whatever, it's an unusual result."

"I..."

"Well, I wouldn't be so angry. I'm so thankful Noria's here."

It was Kufilio who sheltered Aria from the man in white.

Standing in front of Aria, she gently strokes up her hair and says:

"Let's decide to use the presence of you, Noria - no, Aria. You should still be able to get close without being alerted by Illis or Alta."

"It's..."

Sure, Aria could do that.

Iris said he hoped Aria would come back.... that Alta is the same.

Aria's brother and sister are supposed to fight Alta.

(... If you're a teacher, you'll be fine)

Aria trusts Alta, not least.

Because he was there, even in front of an enemy called The Swordsmen, Illis was able to survive. … that power should be wielded for the good of Illis.

That's why Aria didn't make the choice to rely on it.

If Aria relies on it, that could be dangerous for Iris as well.

... because this is how Aria returned to The Shadow Apostle in order to save her brother and sister.

As a result, the two were to remain in battle with Alta.

If he lived, one of Aria's aims would have been half accomplished.

The problem is the safety of those, including Ilis - Aria is working with Kufilio to make sure that they do.

That's all, Aria knew this organization was powerful.

"Aria, you don't have to worry about anything"

"Father,...?

"From now on, I've decided to be you"

"... Huh? What do you mean?

"Shall we get ready, Kufilio"
