In the dense fog that clung onto bodies, people’s shadow could be seenon without hesitation
It was Hajime and them
With Shia in the front, Haji tree It’s the second day after they’ve arrived at Fair Bergen, the cycle for the path to the big tree to open has finally come
Within that time, there were various disturbances which Hajien but, if you compare it hat usually happens, it’s likely not to such a high extent that it couldn’t be categorized as their daily lives
Mainly, the thing with Kouki and the freed slaves (girls), a group ofthis and that to haji this and that with the De the way, forest de However, Hajime and the rest, Yue, Shia, Teio, and the Hauria didn’t deal with it at all, they left everything up to Kouki and thereat labyrinth [Harutsuina Sea of Trees] holds, as a warin with, because the Sea of Trees drives the senses of other races besides the Deainst the demons at [Orcus Great Labyrinth], Kouki and the hit and run tactics repeatedly and Ryutaro was plainly irritated at the de
[……There! Like this…this!]
Within there, Kaori was mixed into Kouki and them’s repeated combat
Kaori still wasn’t completely in full control of Nointo’s body yet so she was there voluntarily to train It appears that, the dense fog didn’t effect Nointo’s body as ht adjustment for the battle experience and trace skills that Nointo had
Even nohile fluttering her wings which shined in silver, it shot out silver feathers to repel the de the silver feathers, as if they were ho missiles, they launched out at the deness
[Ya!]
In addition, while giving out a shout, the approaching demons who slipped past the silver feathers onderfully cut into 2 by the great sword that was clad in silver light that was pulled out in an instant
It seems that she still couldn’t wield them freely like how Nointo did but, if its just one hit then she’s considerably skilled At the very least, it was at the level where she couldn’t be embarrassed to call herself a "Swords used to this It’s hile that I get into a fight with Yue everyday] <-This part , it sounds different fro me, ????????????????
[……Your spec’s are abnormal I can’t afford to be careless]
Hajime let out a breath and h she’s still not on the original Nointo’s level yet which was able to give the Hajirowth rate, it onderful since it was still only around 10 days since her soul was transferred Kaori’s diligence is likely allowing her to rapidlypower
[That’s not true I’, if I don’t concentrate on Decoet a hit off of Yue]
It appears that she heard the conversation between Haji as she er, she has the iht it would…those kind of feelings are reflected on her expression
[……Kaori What are you saying Your physical abilities exceeds ours, you have the brutal ability of decoot aptitude in all attributes and can use ic for limitlessly like a joke as well, due to your proficiency in recovery ic, your defenses are like a fortress, even if they successfully inflict a wound onto you, it’ll heal up immediately…it’s already unsuitable to call you a cheat anyed character Yet you’re still dissatisfied?]
Shizuku pointed out her specs as if she was amazed, Kaori had felt that she definitely felt like a monster so she just let her eyes wander around
[But, I can’t defeat Yue or Shia…if I’ed character then, what are Haji hard to describe or so a difficult expression as she thought of the best way to describe Haji came to mind in the end Kouki called out to Shizuku
[It’s fine, Shizuku As long as we can clear the great labyrinth then even we can becouer than hi forwards to find out what kind of h Hajiic, Kouki as through with it was strongly clenching his fist Ryutaro and Suzu also seemed to have been pumped up
[Every~one, We’ve reached it~]
When Kouki and the the tree as she looked back over her shoulder When Hajime and them chased after Shia who advanced ahead and disappeared into the other side of the fog, they arrived at a space that had no fog Towering in front was a withered huge tree just exactly like they saw before
[This is…the big tree…]
[It’s large…]
[It’s extre above their heads, they weren’t even able to see the top of the big tree, Kouki and them had theirit was as if they were standing in front of a wall Surely it was the sa it for the first ti at eachother
Haji out all the proofs that he’s obtained froreat labyrinths out of his "Treasure Warehouse" The lithograph hasn’t changed since last tireat labyrinths are drawn on the front and it’s back was hollow in order to allow the proofs to be place in
While crouching down, Haji with the 5 proofs in his palnified appearance and focused on Haji can truly happen at anyti themselves, Hajime looked sharply at Kouki and them
[Cam, Since we don’t knohat’ll happen froer, boss May fortune be with you]
By Fair Bergen’s negotiations, the south land with the big tree became Cam and their territory but, from Hajime’s words his expression became a bit disappointed, However he still decided to salute and then everyone spread out together
When he confirmed that, Haji of proof into the hollow section of the lithograph Once it was placed, the lithograph began to shine faintly and characters appeared
"4 proofs"
"Power of Reproduction"
"Guidepost of weaved bonds"
"A path for a new trial shall be open for those who have everything"
[This is the sa other than [Kamiyama] fine]
Hajiraph that while ] [Guryuen’s Pendant] [Merujine’s Coin]……
Each tithened up And iht was set free and it scattered onto the front of the big tree, this tihtly
[Mu? A crest has appeared on the big tree]
[…Next is, the power of Reproduction?]
As Teio el systee tree Yue walked towards the shining pattern and while quietly touching it she used Reproductiontree rapped up in a light unco towards the top fro tree that was shining brightly, gradually revived as the light spread out to every corner as if it was absorbing water from its roots
[Ah, leaves…]
Shia pointed at the leaves which appeared as the tree regained it’s vitality with each passingat the birth of life, Haji at as in front of their eyes with aand it regained its bright green looks
As a slightly strong wind blew by, the sound of the large tree’s leaves rustling around could be heard Then, at the next moment, all of the sudden, the front of the tree trunk was split fro cave which could fit several tens of people
Hajime and them looked at each others faces and nodded to each other and stepped into the cave without hesitation
Hajihtly concerned----would the other reat labyrinths actually be able to challenge the great labyrinth of the Sea of Trees, but it appears that it was pointless worries Everyone was able to enter the cave without a problereat labyrinths in the stance of, [If you want to enter, it’s fine as long as you have what’s necessary However, your life is not guaranteed]
Hajis But, there didn’t seee space which extended out like a dome
[Is it a dead-end?]
Kouki muttered out doubtfully
Ian to shut as if it had been reverse-reproductioned
The light froradually thinned out Hajime scolded Kouki who instinctively panicked When the entrance was completely shut, the inside of the cave rapped in darkness, iht source and held it up in her hand However there was no need for it
That’s because a huge s and it eht
[Uhat’s this!]
[What’s up! What is this!]
[Quit ic formation! Don’t be careless when you’re transferred!]
After Hajime warned the shaken Ryutaro and Suzu, their view blacked out
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[~……This is……]
What reflected in Hajiht returned was a lush forest A sea of trees inside of a tree…created an indescribably odd situation
[Is everyone alright?]
Kouki lightly shook his head and confirs for the safety of his comrades There Shizuku and them, [We’re fine], replied Yue, Shia, Teio, and Kaori didn’t seem to have any particular probles with caution
[Naguht? ……Which way should we progress in?]
The place where Hajime and them were transferred to was, a vacant circled lot where they were couidepost indicating which way they should go either
Since it’s covered in a dense fog, it doesn’t see overhead to look for a path would be useful That’s why Kouki asked Hajireat labyrinths
[……For the tiot no choice but to look around]
Hajihtly displeased expression, he placed his hand onto the trunk of a tree and activated "Tracing" A ht red arroas placed onto the tree and pointing in the direction where they were going
When Kouki and them saw that they nodded It seems they understood that they had no choice but to search while placing signs And they took the lead since they heard that even if you cleared the labyrinth, if they weren’t recognized by the great labyrinth then they wouldn’t be able to obtain Age of Gods ic
The other members followed behind successively However, only Hajime didn’t move from his place as his eyes retained coldness within it As they began to walk, Shia noticed and a "?" appeared over her head as she turned back towards Hajime
[……Hajime-san? Whats wro---]
Shia called out to Hajime……in thatout, in a instant Yue and Teio, as well as Ryutaro were coiled by a wire, with both spheres on both ends fixed into the air they were restrained Hajime had taken out the bola from his "Treasure Warehouse" and quickly thrown theled around as they struggled When Kouki and theained their sanity and as if it was able to produce a ~Ki~ sound they iu!]
Kouki instinctively raised his voice angrily Shizuku and them had tensed expressions as their eyes conveyed that they wanted an explanation from Hajime
[……Be quiet for a bit]
However, Hajime only said that and didn’t answer Kouki and their doubts and silently looked towards Yue, he briskly walked up towards her as expressionless
And, as Yue looked up at Hajiainst her forehead His eyes had a coldness of absolute zero within theer
[Hajime…What i-]
Yue had a, I can’t believe it, expression as Hajime pointed his muzzle at her And when she tried to voice out her doubt as she called Hajime’s name
However, ier without hesitation A dry explosive noise echoed throughout the sea of trees For now, although the muzzle was removed from Yue’s forehead and pointed towards her shoulder, even still it didn’t change the fact that Hajime had shot his beloved lover
Towards that fact, it was obvious that Kouki and them as well as Shia and them were intensely shaken And they looked at Hajime with eyes that doubted his sanity
[Wha, what are you doing! Nagumo-kun!]
[Hajime-kun! Stop!]
Shizuku and Kaori raised their voices to attee but, Shia finally noticed the sense of incongruity and held onto Kaori and theh there was an air like Kouki would spring at any moment to try and restrain Hajime but, that disappeared after Hajime’s next words
[Don’t speak without permission, Imitations You’re only an imitation and you dare imitate Yue’s voice If you dare to call ain I’ll scrape off your hands and feet]
The round was arctic cold, the air was filled with coldness However the temperature hasn’t actually fallen Murderous intent was overflowing fro out Sos became dark Towards the dense murderous intent, Kouki and them naturally became shallow breathed and cold sweat ran down like a waterfall
[What are you? Where is the real Yue?]
[………]
Yue’s appearance was as if stating, "What is it", with her expression and was silently un the ending here is incorrect by a lot, ???????"??"????????????????????????????? Rather than "Who are you" it was "What are you", this was because blood was not flowing from where she was shot in the shoulder It was obvious that it wasn’t a "person"
Dopan!
This tih the opposite shoulder However the fake Yue still didn’t change her expression It appears that they didn’t have a sense of pain Just like Nointo, they carried an ie as if they were puppets, or they oing to answer ……No, do you not have a function to answer Then its fine already Die]
