Synopsis:
Being called out by his sister, Hida Kizuna visited the Strategic Defense School Ataraxia. He met with the
girl manipulating the magic conducting armour (Zeros), Chidorifuchi Aine. All of sudden, in front of his
eyes, Aine was removing her clothes. “Don’t look, you pervert!” “No, it was your fault right!?” To the
unfortunately sharp tongued Aine, Kizuna couldn’t help but be confused. However, there, a critical
mission’s communication arrived. And its contents――to massage Aine’s breasts!? In fact, ecchi acts from
Kizuna have the power to power up the girls. With that power the future of the fight with another world
was at stake!!

PROLOGUE
At the end of the journey we traveled for long, we reached the ultimate
evolution.
Even for us that are supposed to be almighty, there are things that we don’t
understand.
P a g e | 1 | Killaruna-X
However, what to do to find the answer.
Compared to the remaining data, there should be a lot more data that were
erased as unnecessary.
To we know ourselves, and for the sake of knowing our future selves, the log of
the past is needed.
Our origin.
The root that we had lost will surely become our guidepost.
P a g e | 2 | Killaruna-X
However simulating the past is possible.
The lost method, that should have existed once and we knew for ourselves.

CHAPTER 1
REBIRTH ATARAXIA
Part 1
“He, hey Kizuna? That, as I thought I……I’m better not going together with……”
Aine threw a small voice at the back of Kizuna who was walking while pulling
her hand.
“Hm? Why?”
“Because, I was being hostile just a while ago you know? To return back to
everyone as easy as flipping my hand like this……my lingering enthusiasm, is
getting a little cold, or something.”
Without stopping his feet, Kizuna kept walking while pulling Aine’s hand.
Both of them were inside Izgard’s flagship, heading towards the ship’s bridge.
P a g e | 4 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna who got the better of Aine at their fight led Aine from Ataraxia that had
been turned into ruin and escaped. And then they finally arrived at Gravel’s
exclusive ship that had become the de facto command headquarters now that
they had abandoned Ataraxia.
The operation to rush into Zeltis that they attempted at first had already
disappeared without a trace. Everything ended in failure.
He was able to recover back the important something that should have been
lost. He recovered the thing that should be impossible to recover. That fact
became hope and motivation, pushing Kizuna’s heart forward.
He was happy enough just with Aine’s return. But even looking from the
combat potential, whether Aine was here or not was a great difference. With
this the method they could take would really expand.
‘――Let’s quickly have Nee-chan and Shikina-san set up a new strategy and
start again.’
P a g e | 5 | Killaruna-X
“Right now we are in a fight with time. If Genesis collapses, that’s the end for
Atlantis. Not only that. By any chance our world might also get ruined together
with it.”
Suddenly Kizuna’s hand was pulled. When he looked back, Aine stopped in
place and stared at Kizuna with a shocked gaze.
“……No, no way.”
“From what Shikina-san said, because the Entrance connected our worlds, it
seems that there is also some kind of influence to earth. Much less if it
becomes a large phenomenon in the level that can ruin one of the worlds, the
other world won’t get through it free of any repercussion. We don’t understand
how much influence it will have but, in the worst case……”
“There is a high possibility of that. That’s why Aine, perhaps this will be hard
but, your power is needed right now.”
P a g e | 6 | Killaruna-X
“Right when the world is on the verge of danger, something like my shyness
is……nothing significant at all.”
“……Aine, but――”
“No. That’s just obvious. Don’t worry about it. No matter what kind of treatment
I receive, that’s because I have responsibility of that.”
After getting a little shocked, Aine’s face burst open in a happy smile.
Like that the two finally arrived in front of the bridge. Although he said that to
Aine just now, but honestly Kizuna was also anxious. He lightly took a deep
P a g e | 7 | Killaruna-X
breath and examined Aine’s state. Thereupon Aine was also staring at Kizuna.
They nodded at each other and opened the door.
The voice that was filled with nervousness resounded through the spacious
bridge.
Izgard’s soldiers and the staff of Ataraxia that were working busily stopped
their hands. The noisy bridge fell silent as if they were doused by cold water.
For the soldiers of Izgard, what happened was that the emperor of that
Vatlantis Empire suddenly appeared here. Their nervousness and terror were
unfathomable. Most of the soldiers became unable to move as if they had been
petrified.
On the other hand, for the staff of Ataraxia, she was once their comrade, and
then she was the existence that ruled at the summit of the enemy. They
couldn’t even imagine, just how they should act to deal with her. There was
merely choking silence that was continuing.
The heavy air that was like metal was torn apart by a sharp voice.
P a g e | 8 | Killaruna-X
“You are late Kizuna! Aine! Just where did you two loiter around at!”
“Ne……Nee-chan.”
Reiri with her arms crossed went until in front of the two and glared.
All the function of Ataraxia and Nayuta Lab was halted, so they couldn’t collect
the detailed data of the battle. But, Reiri and the others also confirmed the light
that appeared when Aine and Kizuna kissed.
“I was thinking that a Heart Hybrid happened beyond doubt but……seems like
there is a need to investigate huh.”
P a g e | 9 | Killaruna-X
{Right now the equipment of Nayuta Lab is being loaded on board this
battleship. When it’s finished, we are going to gather as much data as possible
to study. However right now it’s better to replenish the Hybrid Count of Kizuna
and Aine. If possible with Climax Hybrid.}
“Just as you heard. Do Climax Hybrid urgently! Also take a shower while you are
at it, change your ragged clothes. Do it!”
Reiri snorted her nose and suddenly turned her back at him.
“Right now we want combat power even if just one more person. The minor
details doesn’t matter. If you want to make excuse then I’ll listen to it after the
battle is over. That’s why, go quickly! I’ll give you the briefing right when you
come back!”
Kizuna and Aine reflexively saluted and then they exited the bridge as if
running away. And then after they turned a corner, Kizuna breathed out
largely.
P a g e | 10 | Killaruna-X
“Hey? Everything’s fine right?”
“Ye, yes……”
Nevertheless, Reiri didn’t demand an explanation from Aine. For her to act
completely like in the past was something happy for Kizuna. Of course, there
was also her realistically prioritizing to deal with what must be done, but he got
a hunch that it was not all there was to it.
“Oi oi. You are the Emperor of Vatlantis, even if temporarily, are you going to
be afraid of my Nee-chan?”
Aine puffed up her cheeks. However, her face soon burst out into a smile.
P a g e | 11 | Killaruna-X
“Fufuh.”
“When you think of it like that, that’s really a steep demotion huh. Well,
but――”
When this fight ended, would Aine return back as the emperor of Vatlantis
again? At that time, how would his relation with Aine turn into he wondered.
Aine knitted her eyebrows worriedly at Kizuna who suddenly stayed quiet.
“No, nothing……aah, come to think of it I don’t know where the shower room
is.”
After that, after being scolded off by Aine’s acidic tongue for the first time in a
long while, Kizuna asked where was the shower room from a soldier of Izgard
P a g e | 12 | Killaruna-X
that happened to pass by. After getting lost for several times, the two finally
reached the shower room.
When the door opened, there was no one inside. It was in a state reserved for
Kizuna and Aine.
“Yeah. No matter how many times I see it, I cannot think of it as a battleship’s
facility……”
If he had to say what kind, saying that it was a super high class sports club was
fitting. Inside the wide space, shower rooms divided by glass were lining up.
High ceiling. The floor and wall were made from stone that resembled ceramic,
the soft indirect lighting that made the atmosphere a little subdued enhanced
the high class feeling.
He guessed that there were around twenty stalls that were lining in a row. Each
one was surrounded by glass from four directions, he couldn’t find the shower
head for the water to come out for some reason. There was only one dial that
seemed to be the faucet attached. He was lost which stall he should go in, but
there was no one so there wasn’t even a need to be particularly bothered. They
entered the shower room that was around the center.
“Still, it’s completely transparent because of the glass divider huh……well, there
is no one so that’s fine though.
P a g e | 13 | Killaruna-X
Aine sighed.
“Now that you mentioned it, the outfit of the emperor was also amazing huh.”
“You saw!?”
“NOOOoOOOOOOOOOOOO-!”
“Forget it! Forget it right now! At any rate your head is just something inferior
without much capacity anyway, quickly erase that memory! Or else I’m going to
ask Zel and vanish that memory myself!”
Words that were like the Vatlantis emperor were mixed in at the ends and odds
of her sentence……Kizuna thought. Right now that was charming, but as
P a g e | 14 | Killaruna-X
expected Ainess that was the emperor of Vatlantis, and Aine of Amaterasu
were not contradicting things, he felt that he was made to recognize anew that
they were a single person. And then the badness of Aine’s mouth was also
understandable if he thought of how she was a princess from the start.
To calm down Aine that kept on talking without pause, Kizuna gently put his
hand on her shoulder.
“Calm down now, Aine. That’s normal in Vatlantis right? Well, its exposure rate
is also showy even among them, but……those clothes suited you in its own
way.”
“I, I didn’t wear them because I like it! That was because I was forced to wear it!”
“Got it, I got it already. But, I think you don’t need to worry though.”
“……Why?”
“Because, after this I’m going to see you in an even more amazing appearance.”
“A……”
Aine once again thought of the meaning of coming to the shower room by the
two of them, then her face became even redder. As if to protect her body, she
tightly hugged her own body.
P a g e | 15 | Killaruna-X
“Aah……the clothing of the emperor might be even more embarrassing than
being naked in a certain meaning though. Well, it’s fine either way so rest
assured.”
“I cannot rest assure at all! In the end it’s unclear which one is more
embarrassing isn’t it……wait, don’t take off my clothes while saying that!”
Kizuna smoothly undid Aine’s pilot suit from her shoulder. At once, the breasts
that were going to spill out bouncily were held back by Aine’s both hands in
panic.
“Kyaaa-“
Kizuna crouched down in that opening and pulled down Aine’s suit until her
waist.
Kizuna obediently stopped his hands and looked up at Aine’s face. Even so her
breasts were obstructing his view, so her face wasn’t really visible. He distanced
himself a little and stared at Aine’s face.
“Aine, if we are going to shower then we must take off the clothes.”
P a g e | 16 | Killaruna-X
“Tha, that’s right but……don’t just take off my clothes silently like that.”
Aine averted her gaze with her cheeks dyed in shame. Faint tremble was
conveyed to his hand that was grasping her suit that had been lowered until
her waist. Aine’s thighs were shaking a little.
This embarrassed feeling of her would make Aine’s Heart Hybrid even more
effective. He understood that actually it was better to fan that shyness of hers
even more. But, right now they were pressed for time. He was a little rough
but, he had to take a method that could raise results in a short time.
“Is that so……but I want to see Aine’s body after a long time. I wonder, can I see
your most embarrassing place?”
Invited by those words, Aine sent a glance at Kizuna. There her face became
much redder and she whispered with a voice that was like a mosquito.
“……It’s fine.”
As if to purposefully make her conscious that he was taking it off, Kizuna was
slowly lowering down her suit. And then, at the end he lowered the suit down
until the middle of her thighs in one go.
“Haa……”
P a g e | 17 | Killaruna-X
Sigh leaked out from Aine’s lips.
After he lowered her suit until below her feet like that, he made her raised her
legs and took the suit off completely. Aine who became stark naked hid her
breast and crotch with both her hands, her body was twisting and fidgeting in
her inability to calm down.
Kizuna also quickly took off his pilot suit. The suit was ragged so on top of
being hard to take off, pain ran on his body each time he moved.
“tsu……”
He bore quite many wounds here and there from the battle with Aine. Most
were bruises, but there were also a lot of cuts. He thought that they were not
so deep that they would need to be sewed, he also thought that his bones
were safe. But, his rib was the most suspicious. Next was his right arm. By any
chance, there might be some fractures.
He gritted his teeth and endured, but it really took a toll on him. Kizuna didn’t
notice while fighting because he was losing himself in the fight, but now that
the fight was over, he noticed the pain in his body too late.
“Kizuna……”
P a g e | 18 | Killaruna-X
With a worried face, Aine came to touch his chest. Without even minding that
her skin was laid bare, she touched the wound gently.
“Is it hurt?”
“Nn……somewhat. But, it’s really not a big deal yeah? From before this, it was
more――”
“Sorry……”
If she was a dog surely her ears would be flopping down powerlessly, her tail
would also be hidden between her legs. That was just how dispirited the look
Aine showed him was.
“It was painful wasn’t it……because of my fault, you became injured a lot.”
Kizuna smiled brightly and turned the dial that seemed to be the faucet.
Thereupon warm water began to pour down like rain from the center of the
ceiling of the stall.
P a g e | 19 | Killaruna-X
Now he got it, indeed this was why he couldn’t find the shower head with glass
divider at the four sides. The water wasn’t pouring down like heavy rain by any
means, it felt like they were raining gently on his body and felt just right at his
injured body.
But Aine kept standing still. Rather, she concealed her face with both hands
and began to cry for real.
‘――This is bad. I didn’t think that she will fret over this so much.’
Kizuna embraced Aine’s body close and pulled Aine’s body inside the hot
shower. Warm water trickled down their bodies. Hugging tightly the trembling
body of Aine, he then whispered to her ear.
“You don’t need to be like this anymore. Even I did all that by my own will.
Besides, wounds just to this degree are more like medals see. Look, scars on a
man’s body, isn’t it cool somehow?”
P a g e | 20 | Killaruna-X
Aine rubbed her face on his shoulder as if to depend on him. And then she
chuckled.
“Even though your name is Kizuna?” (TN: The kanji of Kizuna is read as ‘no
wound’)
“It looks like my recovery from injury is fast. By any chance, is that an influence
from Eros’s Core I wonder? That’s why I’m not failing to live up to my name
here. Maybe.”
Aine noticed the object pressing on her stomach and murmured shyly.
“――!? A, Aine?”
P a g e | 21 | Killaruna-X
“O, occasionally I’ll be the one to……I want to make you feel good, like this.”
Aine averted her eyes from Kizuna shyly. However she didn’t seem like she
would release the thing she grasped.
That was how much Aine worked hard. Kizuna thought, that he had to respond
to Aine’s feelings.
Kizuna’s hands that were hugging were caressing around Aine’s back. He traced
her spine, caressing from below to above, Aine’s body convulsed in a twitch.
“Now that I look, is there nothing like liquid soap or soap here?”
When he looked carefully, there was a small depression on the wall. When
Aine’s hand touched under it, liquid soap trickled out and gathered in her hand.
At the same time the water intensity also decreased and became a drizzle.
Kizuna also took soap in his hand and plastered it on Aine’s body. Aine stayed
quiet and let him kept doing it even while being embarrassed. And then she
extended her hand timidly, spreading the soap evenly on Kizuna’s chest and
stomach, creating bubbles.
P a g e | 22 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna didn’t show any dislike to it and so Aine was relieved, she then washed
Kizuna’s body a little bolder. In return Kizuna also dripped down soap on Aine’s
chest, his hands took the two large breasts drooping heavily under it and
began massaging and cleaning it. The large breasts immediately became
covered in foam.
“I cannot really hear you well. Because I’m too absorbed in cleaning Aine.”
He was focused on washing the pink tips of the breast. He gently washed by
pinching them and rolling them between his fingertips.
This time he used both his hands to grasp one of her breasts and rubbed it.
Aine was unable to resist the pleasure, her body bent and trembled.
With hand that was foamy from the soap, Aine gently lifted up Kizuna’s crotch.
P a g e | 23 | Killaruna-X
Aine importantly massaged the ball part with her slender white fingers.
It felt good having that place massaged softly. There was the stimulation from
the fingers touching, but more than that the feeling of having that done to him
gently as if she was really treasuring it also felt pleasant mentally.
Before long Aine’s fingers were going up to the thing that was standing up
solidly.
When she touched Kizuna’s thing, Aine’s excitement was also swelling up.
“Nn……haaa……”
Her action of rubbing her thighs at each other, her shaking hips looked as if
she was inviting Kizuna.
Kizuna kept his left hand massaging Aine’s breast, while his right hand was
lowering down to the navel, and then toward under her stomach. And then he
lathered the silver bush there with foam and washed there like washing hair.
P a g e | 24 | Killaruna-X
“Yahn! Yo, you don’t need to wash that kind of place.”
P a g e | 25 | Killaruna-X
Ignoring Aine who was desperately appealing with a red face, he kept washing
the silver hair, then his hand extended towards the part that was hidden under
it. The instant he touched that part which was fully filled with her honey, Aine’s
waist jumped twitchingly.
“Aine yourself is washing mine for me aren’t you? That’s why, I’m returning the
favor.”
Aine’s waist was going to crumple down, she leaned on Kizuna’s chest. She was
erotically breathing on Kizuna’s chest before looking up at Kizuna with a
feverish gaze.
Hot liquid was gushing out from Aine’s crotch, viscous sound was becoming
audible following the movement of Kizuna’s fingers. Aine was receiving that
pleasure with a melting face. Light of Heart Hybrid was beginning to shine
inside those eyes.
P a g e | 27 | Killaruna-X
And then, Aine too entrusted her body to the pleasure even while keeping hold
of Kizuna’s thing. She was sliding her hand up and down and continued to
create pleasure.
The shower was automatically getting stronger and washed down the foam
from the two’s bodies. While being rained down by the shower that was like a
heavy rain, Kizuna felt that he was approaching his limit soon.
“Yes……me too.”
Perhaps because it had passed a certain time, the hot water of the shower was
slowly stopping. During the disappearing of the shower’s sound, there was only
the sound of the two’s hands movements resounding. Those sounds were
really obscene and lewd.
“Ki-Kizuna……I’m, already”
Kizuna separated his left hand that was stimulating her breast and touched
Aine’s cheek. And then he lifted up her face.
P a g e | 28 | Killaruna-X
“Eh……”
“Why?”
Even while saying that, Aine once again stimulated Kizuna’s thing. The strength
of her fingers were even more than until now, sending him even stronger
stimulation.
However Kizuna didn’t allow her to avert her face. And then his finger slipped
in even deeper.
P a g e | 29 | Killaruna-X
“NOOOOOO! Don’t, my, my face when I come is being look――”
Aine’s body stretched tautly and she stood on the tips of her toes.
“HAAAAAAaAAAAAYAAaaAAAAAAAuuuAAAAAN♥♥”
Aine’s drenched hidden slit scattered liquid even hotter than the shower. And
then Kizuna also met his limit at the same time, hot liquid vigorously struck
Aine’s stomach.
“NOOOOooohAA♥AAAuAN♥”
Tears were rising on her ecstatically narrowed eyes, overflowing tears spilled
out on her red blushing cheek. Drool trickled down from her opened mouth
and her tongue was trembling greedily. It was an expression that fully
expressed her pleasure and happiness.
And then the magic power light of Heart Hybrid wrapped around the bodies of
the two.
P a g e | 30 | Killaruna-X
“Aine……you were really beautiful.”
“Kizuna……that, ah”
The phenomenon that happened at that time wasn’t really understood. It was
similar with Climax Hybrid, but it was a different thing. While they didn’t
understand what it actually was, the two of them felt anxious to kiss once
more.
“……Let’s quickly reach until Climax Hybrid. We have a briefing after this.”
Aine who was invocated with the intoxicating effect from the influence of Heart
Hybrid smiled sweetly and kneeled in front of Kizuna.
“Aine? Mmuu!”
P a g e | 31 | Killaruna-X
“I’m going to……clean it up okay?”
Aine’s tongue was licking out the thing that Kizuna let out.
Kizuna thought, at this rate they would finish the Climax Hybrid in a few more
minutes.
P a g e | 32 | Killaruna-X
Part 2
After that, Kizuna and Aine who finished their Climax Hybrid returned to the
bridge and the briefing quickly started. Those present were Gravel, Aldea, and
then the supervisor of each section of Izgard’s side and the likes of platoon
leader, in total around twenty names. And then from Lemuria’s side were Reiri
and Kei, Kizuna and Aine, and Gertrude. Also the leaders of the combat
department and research department added with the main staff of Nayuta Lab,
their side also had the total number of around twenty names, combined there
were a total of around forty names gathered here.
{The loading of crew, material, and equipment from Ataraxia are mostly
finished. It’s just, including the setting up, we need about four, five more hours
to restore the function of Nayuta Lab to normal.}
“We have decided to abandon Ataraxia. Fortunately due to the alliance with
Izgard, we are permitted to embark on this Izgard army’s flagship. Therefore
this time we will fight Vatlantis Empire as the crew of Izgard’s flagship.
Commotion and wave of agitation spread through the former staff of Ataraxia.
One of the research department personal raised a hand.
P a g e | 33 | Killaruna-X
Kei answered that question with a floating window.
{The main facilities are in a dead state. A lot of time and material will be
needed to recover it as before. In our present situation we don’t have any way
to perform that.}
“No way……”
They were abandoning Ataraxia that had been like their own home intimately
until now. It was a decision that was accompanied with a great feeling of loss. It
was like that even for the people in charge, so surely it was felt even more
extremely by each student. Furthermore, they were now boarding the
battleship of AU that was their enemy until now and had to fight as its crew.
Even if they understood in in their mind, they couldn’t process that fact and
feeling.
Inside such atmosphere, only Gravel had a smile on her lips and kept nodding
many times.
P a g e | 34 | Killaruna-X
Aldea tilted her head.
“Let’s name this ship from now on as Ataraxia. You don’t mind right, Reiri?”
“That’s……we don’t mind but, is it fine? This is about the name of the flagship
you know, to so easily……”
“It’s fine. This ship is newly built for me personally. It hasn’t been formally given
a name yet. It was troubling that I couldn’t get a good idea for the name. This is
a good timing.”
Reiri looked into Gravel’s eyes fixedly, before long a smile appeared on her lips.
“Got it. From now on this battleship is Ataraxia. Section leaders, get back and
inform it to all members.”
“Roger!”
P a g e | 35 | Killaruna-X
The members of the earth side replied with a bright voice.
Nothing changed about their real problem. But just with naming the ship
Ataraxia, an affinity towards this ship was mysteriously gushing out. The sense
of security of the personnel and students formerly from Ataraxia suddenly
increased and their battle morale also went up.
Reiri was grateful inside her heart for Gravel’s tasteful discretion.
“That’s a good strategy meeting. Reiri, can I rely on you for the march?”
“It’s strange saying this myself but, I’m the one with the highest combat
strength in my army. Rather than sitting inside the bridge, it’s preferable to
make use of myself more effectively as battle power by fighting on the front
line. Besides, if we march into Zeltis, the enemy will be even more formidable
than now. Especially the imperial guard that is a gathering of one man armies.
That’s why I want to go out to the front line to fight without reserve.”
P a g e | 36 | Killaruna-X
Reiri smiled uncomfortably.
“Is that like the compensation for the naming of this ship?”
“……Got it. I’ll show you that I can answer your expectation.”
Reiri looked over the bridge with determination. The crew of the Izgard army
also didn’t really show any dissatisfied face towards Reiri.
“Then we are starting the war council. Our objective is to repair the Genesis
that is located at the palace of Zeltis. If this pillar breaks down, the Atlantis
world will breakdown, and the aftermath of that will make our world……for the
sake of avoiding confusion from now on we will call our world Lemuria, the
possibility that damage will also reach our world(Lemuria) is extremely high. In
the worst case, it can be imagined that both worlds will breakdown together.”
The bridge became noisy. Although the soldiers of Izgard felt that the frequent
occurrence of the cataclysm wasn’t something normal, being clearly told that
the breakdown of Genesis is connected to the breakdown of the world was
shocking as expected.
P a g e | 37 | Killaruna-X
On the other hand, looking from the standpoint of the Lemuria side, they didn’t
even imagine that the danger in the other world that was like other people’s
problem could be directly connected to the problem of their own world. That
fact was even farther from mere shock. The staff of both countries were
whispering to each other about that anxiety.
“Be quiet! All of you acting like that will only make the people under you feel
anxious. Be brazen!”
“First we will rush into the Entrance of London. When we get out of the
Entrance, we will be right within a stone’s throw away of the imperial capital
Zeltis already. Naturally, Vatlantis will surely deploy their defense line too. The
problem is how much battle power is waiting for us……”
“The first until the fifth are assembling together as the subjugation army.
Behind them even the first squad until the fourth squad of the imperial guard
are also assembled there. And then the force going to campaign for Izgard is
also returning back……so that means, just their battleships are nearly three
hundred ships. Even just their magic weapons are around ten thousand.”
P a g e | 38 | Killaruna-X
“How can you know that?”
“I’ve told you before right? We came near Zeltis and left behind the relay device
that monitored the enemy’s transmission. This information came from there.”
“Battle with the enemy cannot be avoided. However our objective is not the
extermination of the enemy. It’s to breakthrough the enemy and reach the
Genesis at the castle. Secure Professor Nayuta that is thought to be at the
research lab adjacent to the pillar. After collecting information, we will carry out
the repair of Genesis.”
――However, if they clashed with such large army, a lot of injured and deaths
would come out.
Kizuna raised his hand, Reiri jerked her chin and urged him to speak.
“Nee-chan. If that’s the case, isn’t it fine if we just tell them that we have no
intention to fight? We will make them understand that our objective is to make
the two worlds survive. We can avoid pointless fighting like that.
“Hmm……I guess. Aine, can you call for a ceasefire as the emperor of Vatlantis?”
P a g e | 39 | Killaruna-X
But, Aine shook her head sadly.
“There is Grace at Vatlantis right now. In the case I’m not there, Grace holds the
right of governing. Besides, even if I said that kind of thing from the enemy
camp, no one will believe me, surely everyone will doubt me……”
“Grace……Aine’s sister huh. And then the de facto emperor of Vatlantis, that’s
the case right?”
Certainly, in this ten year absence of Aine, she was the existence that ruled as
the emperor. On the other hand, Aine only just suddenly returned for a few
months. If it was the problem of who could obtain trust, it was normal to
imagine that Aine would be the one at a disadvantage. Besides, if she appealed
this kind of thing from the side of Lemuria, perhaps she would be thought of as
an imposter and she might be ignored right from the start. What Aine said was
something they could understand.
“Besides, if Grace knew that I’m following Lemuria’s side, she will surely get into
a frenzy. She is bound to be trying to exterminate us no matter how many
sacrifices need to be paid in that case.”
P a g e | 40 | Killaruna-X
“Then that means, if Grace is the one who gave out the ceasefire command,
accordingly the battle will be over, isn’t that right?”
“The way to negotiate with Grace……how we can move the event until we can
have a discussion with each other huh.”
Before long several discussions started. They considered various ways but,
there was no opinion that could become the clincher. Amidst the chaotic hustle
and bustle, Aine stood stock still.
“However Aine. If Grace knew that you are siding with us, won’t she get a fit of
anger?”
P a g e | 41 | Killaruna-X
“Yes……that’s why, I think it’s no good unless I go. If she only heard that I’m at
Lemuria’s side, I think Grace will get frenzied. But, if I can properly convey why I
am on the side of Lemuria……if I directly meet her and speak to her, I have the
feeling that surely we can understand each other. Just like how I was……”
Aine’s eyes were directed to Kizuna. Receiving that gaze, Kizuna also nodded.
“Saying it in reverse, a frenzied Grace won’t listen to the word of anybody else
other than me. Besides, at the outskirts of Zeltis, there is a secret path known
only to me towards the castle.”
“Eh?”
“It’s a path in the case that when danger befell the emperor, they can escape
from the castle using the secret path. That entrance wasn’t told to anyone but
me. That’s why……”
P a g e | 42 | Killaruna-X
However Aine rejected clearly.
“That’s no good. Grace is especially regarding Kizuna as enemy. It will just bring
about the opposite effect if you go.”
“But, Aine!”
Certainly if Aine was the one speaking, even Grace might lend her ear. But, if
she was under the impression that her big sister betrayed her, excessive
tenderness switches to hundredfold hatred……it might come to that.
“We have no chance of victory if we clash with the number of enemy waiting for
us right from the front. But, we have Zeros’s Code Breaker. First I want Aine to
reduce the battle strength of the enemy as much as Aine’s Hybrid Count
allowed. It’s a precious method that can disarm both sides without spilling out
blood. There is the risk that it will shed light of Aine’s siding with us but, it’s
unavoidable.”
“I understand.”
P a g e | 43 | Killaruna-X
“However just in case. Don’t use up all your Hybrid Count, pay attention so that
your Hybrid Count won’t get into the yellow zone of 25%. After decreasing the
enemy’s force, we land on Zeltis. Infiltrate inside the castle using the secret
path. Negotiate with Grace for a cease fire. And then――”
“Kizuna, Gravel, and Aldea will be Aine’s guard. I want you three to send Aine
whose Hybrid Count will be expended to reach Grace’s location safely.
“Roger.”
“It’s too plain isn’t it-? Even though we can finally have a rare death match with
the imperial guard……”
“Don’t say that. The vital point of the operation this time is to realize a dialogue
between Ainess and Grace. Besides, it’s unthinkable that they will just let us go
quietly. This is going to be quite a difficult mission in its own way.”
“Yeah. We will send Aine until her little sister’s place for sure with our hands.”
P a g e | 44 | Killaruna-X
Reiri spoke as if to give a warning to Kizuna who was eager.
“But negotiating with Grace is Aine’s role. Absolutely don’t show your face in
that place.”
Gertrude who was staying quiet until then listening to the talk raised her hand
a little.
“Aah, sorry. Gertrude will protect Ataraxia. The number of enemy the Code
Breaker can deal with is limited. While Aine is persuading Grace, we will have to
fight the remaining enemy force from the front. We will especially rely on you
for dealing with the magic armor.”
“What?”
“There are our former coworkers in Vatlantis being idols or something perhaps
because of some mistake, what are we going to do about that?”
P a g e | 45 | Killaruna-X
“Aa―……”
All present had their words clogged in their throat with complicated
expressions.
It was only about this that there was no one who understood what should be
done about it. It also looked like they had completely integrated with the world
of the other side, perhaps they had some kind of thinking doing something like
that.
Aine too didn’t understand at all about the details of their idol debut, she was
shocked when she knew about their being from the broadcast.
Kei typed her keyboard and listed the recent activity of Amaterasu and Masters
that they understood from the information obtained by Izgard. Their schedule
was splendidly packed full, furthermore they had crossed over the whole
continent of Atlantis.
{Those girls are super busy from their popularity. They are bustling about at
various scenes and it’s difficult to specify their current location. It’s effectively
impossible to plan their rescue.}
P a g e | 46 | Killaruna-X
“There is no need to worry there. Because Amaterasu and also Masters are
authentic super idols, I think they won’t be endangered. There is no doubt that
they will be confined in a safe place importantly.”
“So there is no way to rescue them then……well, this is them we are talking
about, so they might unexpectedly come back here with a face as if there was
nothing that happened at all.”
“So no more questions then. The detailed schedule of the operation will be
issued from Kei to every leader later on. Each of you carry out the instructions
without exception. That’s all!”
“Roger!”
“Listen well! This is the last decisive battle. No matter what it results in, the fate
of both worlds will be decided with this battle. Even if you leave regret behind,
there will be no chance to take it back! Use up all your strength! Don’t leave
behind any lingering sentiment! We are literally shouldering the world! We are
going!!”
P a g e | 47 | Killaruna-X
All present raised their fists in response. The resounding war cry in the rebirth
Ataraxia, whether they were Lemurian or Izgardian, it couldn’t be differentiated
who was who, the voices became one wave and thundered.
P a g e | 48 | Killaruna-X
Part 3
“Subjugation army, the deployment of the first corps until the fifth corps is
finished. Also the corps returning from Izgard are also returning to their
previous organization.”
Hearing the report of her subordinate, the captain of the first unit of the
imperial guard named [Leon Squad], Hakyurath nodded with tightly pursed
lips.
The magic knight who came to report saluted and then returned to her post
with brisk movement.
Hakyurath was standing at the third castle wall located at the outermost
circumference of the capital Zeltis, staring at the Entrance floating in the
wasteland. Strong wind fluttered her imperial guard uniform and teased her
golden hair. Her braided hair was settled behind, the tip of her ponytail was
fiercely flapping.
Before long, the army of Lemuria and Izgard would arrive from that Entrance.
P a g e | 49 | Killaruna-X
The inside of Hakyurath’s heart wasn’t calm. The unprecedented danger and
the heavy responsibility that was suddenly pushed at her disturbed her heart
to pieces, she couldn’t even collect her thought.
Even though this was an emergency situation, the whereabouts of the captain
of the imperial guard that was Zelcyone was unknown. Furthermore, even her
close-aides all four of the Quartum were MIA at Lemuria.
Although the Quartum were the subordinates directly under Zelcyone, they
didn’t belong to the organization’s chain of command. That was why they
wouldn’t be relied on to replace Zelcyone to command at this kind of time.
However they were existences that were the closest to Zelcyone, so if they
were asked then something like Zelcyone’s whereabouts could be known. But,
right now even that was impossible.
She couldn’t show worry in front of her subordinate. Now that Zelcyone wasn’t
here, Hakyurath that was the captain of Leon(first) squad had to take
command of the whole imperial guard. But――,
“Hakyurath, what’s the matter? Is your stomach sick, for you to make a face like
that?”
A carefree voice called at her from behind. When she turned back, there a
beautiful woman with slender limbs wearing her uniform roughly was standing
P a g e | 50 | Killaruna-X
there. Her wavy purplish red long hair had a part braided and half upped. Even
though this was an emergency situation, she had a relaxed and composed
smile on her face. It was a smiling face that she had gotten quite tired of
looking at since their childhood.
“What about you yourself Mercuria? For the captain of the Tigris(second) squad
to gallivant about like this, it’s setting a bad example to the people under us.”
She was the captain of the imperial guard second squad [Tigris squad],
Mercuria.
Mercuria was similar with Hakyurath, she had the background of being from a
noble family with ancient and honorable background. Since their childhood
they were associated with each other including their families, but in spite of
that this Mercuria had the personality that was unlike a noble, even though she
had excellent grades and magic power but she was not interested in the
evaluation of society. She also had no interest in contest or victory or defeat,
she was always clad in the atmosphere that was aloof from the world with a
carefree attitude. Such attitude was vexing for Hyakurath, she even thought
that Mercuria was living insincerely. So Hyakurath invited Mercuria to the
imperial guard similar with herself.
And when she tried enlisting, in the first place Mercuria was someone excellent
with high ability. She was looking on in blank amazement while Mercuria was
climbing the ladder until the top where she was now the captain of Tigris squad
that was next after her.
P a g e | 51 | Killaruna-X
However, even so her aloof personality was beyond repair.
“My squad has the laissez-faire principle anyway. Now that it has come to this,
there is no other choice but to do it. Rather than telling them do this do that,
it’s better for them to make use of their routine training and do each of their
best. Rather than that Hyakurath, isn’t it better for you to be a little calmer?”
“I’m calm enough. Rather than that, just what are you coming here for?
Mercuria yourself, are you actually also anxious? Are you coming here to cling
at me in tears?”
“……If you jest even more than that, then I won’t forgive it even if it’s you
Mercuria.”
“You are making this kind of face when you are just a step short of crying. It has
been like this since we were little.”
P a g e | 52 | Killaruna-X
“……kuh”
Mercuria always spoke as if she had seen through her. And then what was
irritating, was that she was always right.
“That’s……”
“Perhaps it’s exactly as you say, but it cannot be helped. If I don’t pull myself,
then not only captain, but even her majesty the emperor will be troubled. I
have to display a performance that won’t shame the imperial guard.”
P a g e | 53 | Killaruna-X
“We have this much large force. There is no one that can possibly move them
perfectly. If they can move even just half as we imagined then that’s already
very good, isn’t it fine to think about it like that?”
“But, we are the last shield of the people of Zeltis aren’t we? If we allow Lemuria
and Izgard to invade into the capital, what kind of tragedy will turn
out……besides if they enter the capital, the imperial castle will be right there. In
the worst scenario that something happens to Grace-sama……”
“You are thinking too much in a bad direction. Speaking about our army’s
strength, there is no way we will lose right?”
“The one who is missing, is not just Zelcyone-sama. There is the rumor that
Ainess-sama’s figure disappeared in the middle of the expedition to Izgard……”
As expected, even Mercuria couldn’t hide her shock from that information.
P a g e | 54 | Killaruna-X
“What did you say? Hasn’t Ainess-sama returned from the expedition and is
staying in the castle right now?”
Mercuria gazed at the imperial castle that was at the base of Genesis which
was towering at the beyond.
“This is only a rumor until the end you know? There is the rumor that her
highness was struck down by Lemuria’s assassin, but there is also a rumor in
the contrary that her highness’s figure vanished in order to strike down the
demon king of Lemuria.”
“There is no way for Vatlantis Empire to lose. Even if that’s what I’m thinking,
but some kind of bad premonition is――”
“――That’s!?”
P a g e | 55 | Killaruna-X
What appeared from the Entrance, was just a single magic armor. White armor
with blue radiance of magic power light. And then the pink shining hair couldn’t
be mistaken at all.
“Ainess-sama!”
“Don’t tell me! Why is Ainess-sama coming from the Entrance of Lemuria!?”
She started up a floating window and magnified the image of the magic armor
appearing from the Entrance.
Ainess that was projected in the window was wearing not her emperor outfit
but Zeros. She was staring fixedly at Vatlantis army with her pink hair fluttering
in the wind.
The large army of Vatlantis was reflected in those red eyes. Along the black
castle wall rising in the front, countless magic weapons and battleships were
floating. The number was too many, to the level that it made one wonder
P a g e | 56 | Killaruna-X
whether the army had completely filled the sky. Exactly as the information
from before, not only the imperial guard, the subjugation army and so on
seemed to be also mustered in full force.
“It looks like they gathered almost all of the battle force of Vatlantis here. If
right now we made Ataraxia rush there, it will become a disaster.”
“As expected it’s impossible to erase all the battleships and magic
weapons……but, I’ll do as much as I can.”
It was the best Kizuna could say looking at Aine’s eyes that were filled with
sadness and sorrow.
Aine kicked the air and flew into the force of Vatlantis. Obviously the magic
weapons and the battleships were acknowledging Aine as the emperor. Far
from interfering, they opened a path and welcomed her. And then Aine
stopped when she had advanced until the middle of the large army.
P a g e | 57 | Killaruna-X
“Code Breaker.”
A magic circle was generated from the ring on her back. The blue shining magic
circle was expanding its diameter with the ring as the center. Matching that, the
magic circle that became belt-shaped was rotating around Aine, creating a
shining light with the shape of a sphere.
“What, is that!?”
Haykurath was staring at the sphere of light that was enlarging in front of her
eyes. Pattern of shining blue magic circle was flowing on the surface of the
sphere. That sphere was swallowing the magic weapons that were coming out
for welcoming Aine one after another.
The magic weapons were not swallowed. They were erased starting from the
place that was touched by that sphere of light.
Before long that light even began to swallow the battleships. In order from the
bow, the magic formulas that were composing the battleship were
disassembled.
P a g e | 58 | Killaruna-X
The sphere of light that was further enlarging made Mercuria feel fear.
Mercuria grasped the shoulder of Hyakurath that was yelling with a voice that
almost burst into a weep.
“Hyakurath, pull back the army for the moment! At this rate it will be total
annihilation!”
However the time was already too late, Aine was charging into the large army
of Vatlantis.
The gigantic sphere of magic circle was advancing into the fleet that was
forming formation. The thing that existed in her path , whether it was
battleship or magic weapon, all were erased altogether.
Not allowing the littlest bit of opposition or a fight, the shadow of the fleet was
disappearing. This was nothing but nightmare for the army of Vatlantis. All the
commanders of the subjugation army were falling into panic even while giving
out instructions loudly.
P a g e | 59 | Killaruna-X
“Subjugation fleet quickly turn around! Withdraw the magic weapons from the
path of the sphere of light!”
The army that was lined up orderly was falling into pandemonium like a table
that was overturned. In any case they tried to escape the Code Breaker and
scattered everywhere to all directions without any formation or leadership.
“Nee-chan! Now!”
At the same time with Kizuna saying that, a huge bow of as ship showed its
face from the Entrance. It was a large battleship of two thousand meter class.
The flagship of Izgard and Lemuria, Ataraxia.
Gravel who stood on the bow waved her hand to the front.
“FIREE―!”
The Vatlantis army was in the middle of turning back, exposing their flank
defenselessly without even any shield laid out. There Ataraxia’s main cannon
spouted fire. The large shell of light instantly traversed the sky. The cannon
shell hit the battleship of Vatlantis, fierce sparks and electrical discharge, and
then explosive sound roared thunderously in the sky. The main cannon that
P a g e | 60 | Killaruna-X
possessed powerful destructive power pierced through the armor of the
battleship, opening a wind hole on the hull.
The battleship that received Ataraxia’s direct attack tilted, explosion occurred
inside it. Flames were blazing up everywhere, it was scattering light fragments
while its altitude was dropping. And then when it crashed on the wasteland,
fierce explosion of light occurred and oxidized back into magic power.
Reiri wasn’t sitting on the ship captain’s seat, she was staring at the war
situation still standing.
“Yosh, the other ships are to follow! So that the ships that get out of the
Entrance don’t hinder the ships behind, quickly move to the designated
location. Don’t slacken the bombardment even while moving!”
Adding on Aine’s Code Breaker, the bombardment of Ataraxia and Izgard’s fleet
was attacking the army of Vatlantis. Vatlantis that was attacked in its
unguarded moment received Ataraxia’s bombardment like a joke and the ships
were sinking one after another.
P a g e | 61 | Killaruna-X
That sight was watched over by the imperial guard Leon squad’s captain
Hakyurath and the Tigris squad’s captain Mercuria in dumbfoundment.
Mercuria returned to her senses and turned to her friend without even hiding
her fretfulness.
Tears blurred Hyakurath’s eyes. But the tears gathering at the corner of her
eyes barely stopped right before it spilled over.
Do your best.
She threw words of encouragements to her own self inside her heart.
P a g e | 62 | Killaruna-X
“……In any case empty the path. Even if it’s Ainess-sama, her magic power is not
unlimited. Soon the time her magic power runs out will come. Until that time
run away as much as possible from the Code Breaker. Also pay attention to the
bombardment of Izgard’s fleet that is coming out from the Entrance. In this
kind of chaotic situation, there is high possibility that we will cause friendly fire.
Don’t attack rashly, commit to defensive battle.”
Mercuria lightly tapped the shoulder of Hyakurath and started up ten floating
windows, she then gave out instruction to the commanders of all the fleets and
all the squads of the imperial guard.
“I’m delivering the command from the acting imperial guard captain,
Hyakurath. Run away from the Code Breaker of Zeros! Break the formation and
don’t gather in one place! No matter what evade, wait until the magic power
runs out! The ships that are in a place distanced from Code Breaker’s attack are
to prepare for bombarding the enemy fleet. Don’t be rash in counterattacking,
concentrate on defensive battle by thickening your shields. Do that!”
P a g e | 63 | Killaruna-X
At the bridge of Ataraxia, the battle situation that was constantly changing
moment by moment was projected at a half-transparent floating window. Reiri
was looking at the movement there and spoke to Kei.
“Aine. Your Hybrid Count is at the limit already. Withdraw from there soon!”
{But, there is still more than half remaining! If Ataraxia entered a fleet battle
like this, then you…!}
“Yeah!”
P a g e | 64 | Killaruna-X
Gravel who suddenly fully opened her thrusters flew away.
After the three flew away from Ataraxia, they were flying towards the light of
the magic circle Zeros emitted.
“Aine!”
A communication window opened beside Aine’s face and Kizuna who called at
her was projected there.
“Kizuna……”
When she looked at her status window, her remaining Hybrid Count was 29%.
The magic circle vanished. The effect of Code Breaker disappeared and the ring
at Zeros’s back that was widely spread folded up.
That moment when the demonic light that ruled over Zeltis’s sky vanished, the
imperial guard moved.
P a g e | 65 | Killaruna-X
“All fleets, return back to your designated spot! As soon as the formation is in
order, all forces are to start bombardment. The target is Lemuria-Izgard
combined fleet which appeared from the Entrance!”
Following the order, the fleet and magic weapons were moving all at once.
At the same time with that order given, Hyakurath’s eyes were searching at the
surroundings where the magic circle of the Code Breaker vanished.
‘――Where is Ainess-sama!?’
“Hyakurath!”
When she looked over, there was a silhouette ahead of where Mercuria was
pointing at. Hyakurath displayed a window and magnified that silhouette. It
was a figure of a pink haired girl swooping down towards Zeltis. Behind her
three magic armors were following.
“Ainess-sama!”
“Also the one following behind her, that’s Lemuria’s demon king! Hyakurath!”
P a g e | 66 | Killaruna-X
Faster than Mercuria’s calling her, Hyakurath flew out in pursuit of Aine and the
others.
Kizuna, Gravel, and Aldea were following after Aine and then they lined up
beside her.
“There is a small rock hill outside the third castle wall. That’s our destination.”
The third castle wall was the outermost wall, outside it was a wasteland
continuing as far as their eyes could see.
It was completely unknown where the entrance was located just from a brief
glance.
At that time, an alert window that noticed Kizuna of danger started up in front
of his face.
“Enemy!”
When he looked back, there were two magic armors chasing after them.
P a g e | 67 | Killaruna-X
“Kizuna! Those are the captains of the imperial guard’s first and second squads!
We were discovered by a troublesome bunch.”
Gravel extended her hand at the gunsword on her back and spoke.
“Aldea and I will take care of them. Kizuna, you escort Ainess-dono.”
“But!”
Aldea made a sudden break and turned around with her back at him.
“Fufufu, there is no way I’m letting such delicious prey get away.”
Gravel also stopped in the air and drew out her gunsword.
“Ku……-”
Kizuna didn’t let his speed drop down even while he was gritting his teeth.
When he got near the ground he entered a level flight, flying along the castle
wall.
P a g e | 68 | Killaruna-X
Confirming his back figure, Gravel then faced the imperial guard members who
finally came before her eyes.
“Imperial guard Leon squad’s captain Hyakurath, in addition the Tigris squad’s
captain Mercuria huh.”
“Fufufu, to have a death match with the Leon squad and Tigris squad as the
opponent, today is a lovely day.”
Aldea’s cheeks reddened and she whispered ecstatically. She already readied
her spear with both hands and deployed her shields around her in battle
preparation.
“I’m daring to ask knowing it’s pointless, can you overlook us?”
P a g e | 69 | Killaruna-X
“You really ask a pointless question.”
The arm part of Mercuria disassembled and transformed into a bow shape that
was her main weapon. The bow itself became blade, it was also a sword in
close range battle. When she pulled the bowstring that was made of magic
power light, an arrow of light was naturally formed. By shooting the arrow that
generated various effects, it was a special weapon that wasn’t outdone even by
guns, the [Arcdrive(Magic Bow Bullet Guide)].
And then Hyakurath drew out the weapon mounted on her magic armor,
[Glorier(Holy Glory Sword)]. It was her favorite sword with magic letters carved
on the wide sword blade.
“The former general of sixth subjugation army, and then Izgard’s hero, the
tanned beast……”
“TERYAAAAAAAA!”
P a g e | 70 | Killaruna-X
“UOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
The elites of the two armies clashed. The brightness of the sword fight split the
sky.
“Gravel……”
“Kizuna……”
Aine also looked back with worried eyes. Several radiances were crossing the
sky. However Kizuna spoke as if to shake himself free.
“Let’s believe in Gravel and Aldea. If it’s those two, they won’t lose against any
kind of enemy!”
P a g e | 71 | Killaruna-X
After they followed along the wall and circling it quite far, a slightly swelling hill
was visible.
“There!”
When both of them landed down there, they looked around the surroundings.
Several collapsed stone pillars were scattered about, it gave off the impression
as if there was a shrine that was built here once. The ground under their feet
was covered with sand, but a floor made from stone was visible. When they
looked at the direction of Zeltis, the distance from the outermost third castle
wall was around one kilometer.
Aine whispered so while sweeping off the sand on the floor. Kizuna also
squatted down as to not look conspicuous, he moved aside rock and helped
Aine.
P a g e | 72 | Killaruna-X
A stone painted with a crest appeared. Aine touched it with her right hand and
whispered something. Thereupon light of magic power was flowing in from
Aine’s body to the stone.
A sound of heavy stone dragging on appeared and the ground was opening.
The hole that was around one meter long at each side opened gaping wide.
“Let’s go.”
“Ah, oi.”
He didn’t understand how it was inside, so Kizuna was alert, but Aine entered
inside the hole without hesitation.
“Now that we have come this far, all that’s left is leaving it all to chance huh.”
P a g e | 73 | Killaruna-X
Holding such thought in his heart, Kizuna entered into the hole with all his
might.
P a g e | 74 | Killaruna-X
Part 4
Vatlantis’s fleet that reordered their formation just like Hyakurath commanded
began a fierce bombing battle with the fleet of Ataraxia and Izgard.
{Our loss is 5%. Like this we can hold out for a while.}
“Indeed. After all our objective is not to crush the enemy fleet.”
Reiri confirmed the battle situation and the damage state at Ataraxia’s bridge.
They were bombing in full power only at first. After that they routed the energy
to the shield and devoted themselves to defense, that was their tactic for the
fleet battle. What was left is only to pray that Aine could persuade Grace for
even a second faster.
P a g e | 75 | Killaruna-X
Reiri opened a window and sent her instruction.
Exactly as Reiri predicted, magic weapons were flying out one after another
from Vatlantis’s aircraft carrier. And then, they formed a swarm heading
towards Ataraxia.
The shield of the battleship was dedicatedly made for fleet. It couldn’t stop
small frames like magic weapons.
The hatch opened, Gertrude who showed out her face on the deck drew out
particle guns from the holsters at her hips.
P a g e | 76 | Killaruna-X
Gertrude extended both her hands to the front and pulled the triggers of the
two pistols. The Albatross at the lead of the swarm had a wind hole opened
and vanished in an explosion as beads of light.
With that as the signal, Ataraxia’s anti air cannons began firing. The attack of
the magic weapons impacted Ataraxia’s deck.
Gertrude ignited her thruster and rushed toward the bow. She shot the magic
weapon going down from the sky, at once its figure changed into fragments of
light.
After feeling relieved for a brief moment, a small type battleship with a total
length around fifty meters was charging here from the front.
“Chih!”
Gertrude kept pulling the triggers of her pistols. And then right before her
cartridges were used up, an explosion occurred at the battleship. Gertrude
patted down her chest in relief.
“So this is a war of attrition against magic weapons and small type
battleships……”
P a g e | 77 | Killaruna-X
Gertrude opened a transmission window towards the bridge.
“Commander! Like this, getting into a drawn-out battle is going to be really bad!
For now, can’t you thicken the barrage for me!”
{I know! Block B2, your railgun is not working! What are you doing there!}
{This is block B2! The generator broke down, now in the middle of replacing it!}
Momo was holding a reserve generator cable while running on the deck. The
railguns brought from Nayuta lab were installed in a row at the deck. Ataraxia
was installed with powerful artillery for anti battleship, but it had insufficient
weaponry against small magic weapons. There the research department
hurriedly installed the armaments they brought from Nayuta Lab at the deck
which was lacking in weaponry.
“Don’t drag your feet there, fire the bullet quickly! Bullet!”
P a g e | 78 | Killaruna-X
“What are you going to do if the guys of that world are getting thought of us as
cowards huh! Work quickly!”
“Shut’up! I’m going to make you all keep shooting until you die even if you don’t
want it, just wait there a little!”
Because similar exchanges were repeated many times all over the deck, their
voices croaked hoarsely. Momo plugged in the new generator cable at the
railgun as if beating the thing. Immediately the railgun activated while raising a
low humming sound.
Light was shining from the railgun’s console, the targeting and the triggering
became working. At the same time with that, the students of the combat
department raised delighted voices like children.
“The magic weapons and small ships are unmanned! There ain’t a single
beautiful lady boarding it! Shot them down without mercy!”
P a g e | 79 | Killaruna-X
Pulling the trigger with lively expressions, bullets several times the speed of
sound scattered all over the sky of AU. When the flying magic weapons were hit
by the bullets, the movement of the magic weapon stopped. When more
bullets were added there as if in a shower, the armor broke and explosions
happened. Fragments turned into light and vanished in the wind.
When Momo was going to reply back, an instruction came to her from Kei.
Momo pulled down the fastener of her clothes that had become dripping in
sweat, stripped off her upper wear and tied the sleeves on her waist. She was
running on the deck while her breasts that were supported by black bikini
intensely shook. There were people ahead who had lost their way of fighting. If
she didn’t go, those people would be helpless.
Under the sky where bullets were flying everywhere, Momo was sprinting with
all her strength.

Part 5
The imperial castle at the center of the imperial capital Zeltis. The throne at the
castle’s audience room was vacant. But, at the seat a level under that throne,
there was the owner of that chair. That chair’s size was not as big as the throne
but it was really big enough. Someone was slovenly sitting at that extravagant
chair looking as if she was going to fall off.
The contact that told of how Aine’s figure suddenly vanish from the subjugation
party of Kizuna that was heading to Izgard also entered Grace’s ear. And then,
there was also the unidentified information about how Aine was heading alone
to Lemuria after that.
Tears spilled down from the red eyes that looked similar with Aine. At the same
time when that tear wet the chair, the door was fiercely knocked. The magic
knights that were filling the castle were rushing here in panic.
“Grace-sama! The allied forces of Izgard and Lemuria are invading here! They
had already approached until the third castle wall of Zeltis!”
P a g e | 81 | Killaruna-X
“What did you say!”
“Where is Zelcyone!?”
“What!”
The magic knight was trembling from Grace’s fury. However, she said her
report even while trembling.
P a g e | 82 | Killaruna-X
“……-!”
The nervousness in Grace’s heart was released. It felt like the sun of Spring was
shining in her chilly heart.
“……?”
“If you say something careless, your life will be gone you know?”
P a g e | 83 | Killaruna-X
The magic knight’s whole body was trembling, yet even so she repeated her
report.
Rage together with light of magic power burst out from Grace’s body.
“There is no way such thing is possible! You bastard, Are you making a fool of
Nee-sama and this me!?”
“Wha……”
P a g e | 84 | Killaruna-X
“Code Breaker……you say? Don’t speak something foolish! That is Nee-
sama’s――”
“We have confirmed it many times over! That person is without a doubt Ainess-
sama!”
Impossible.’
“I bring a report!”
Again another magic knight was running inside, she kneeled and made her
report.
P a g e | 85 | Killaruna-X
“Ainess-sama called off her Code Breaker. Right now her highness is in the
middle of moving toward this castle, together with the demon king of Lemuria!”
Grace’s fingertips that were holding the armrest were turning white. She put
strength into her slender fingers, as if she was going to break the chair’s
armrest that was decorated with gold and jewels.
‘――Not just once, even the second time, because of that man.’
“That man is leading Nee-sama astray! That man is to blame for everything!”
Grace emitted magic power surge from her whole body. The beautiful windows
that were like stained glass cracked one after another, before they were
smashed apart into pieces.
P a g e | 86 | Killaruna-X
“GUWAAAH!”
The magic knights that came to report were hit by the shockwave of magic
power and were blown away outside the room.
In the audience room where no one was left, Grace raised a yell.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
Crack entered the wall, a hole was opened as if it was exploded. Cracks also ran
through the stone of the floor, the floor then caved in as if a giant was walking
there.
“Lemuria’s demon king! Only you, I will kill you with my own hands!”
‘――If I do that,’
“Nee-sama will return back to me……that’s right, I will rescue Nee-sama from
the hands of the demon king.”
P a g e | 87 | Killaruna-X
CHAPTER 2
FOR THE SAKE OF THE THING YOU BELIEVED IN
Part 1
When Ataraxia entered battle situation with the Vatlantis army, Amaterasu was
at Vatlantis Empire theater. They were waiting for their turn at the waiting
room of their exclusive floor, but they weren’t called no matter how long they
waited.
Himekawa who sat on the sofa was supporting her head with her hands on her
cheeks. The curtain rising time was approaching, so she was already wearing
her stage costume.
Sylvia put on her stage costume’s skirt and pulled up the waist fastener.
“I guess desu. It’s also strange that there is no contact at all desu.”
Normally Marisu and the staff frequently came, being too helpful in this and
that. But, just for today there was no one who showed their face. Himekawa
stood up and took out a water bottle from the refrigerator.
P a g e | 88 | Killaruna-X
“The performance today is cancelled isn’t it?”
Yurishia who was in her underwear murmured while looking outside the
window.
Himekawa was shocked and rushed towards Yurishia with a bottle in one hand.
The window was created from transparent material without any joint at its
surface from the celling until the floor. Due to the faint magic power flowing in
the material, the transparency of the window for the people looking from
outside could be changed. Right now it was set so no one could see from the
outside, so even with Amaterasu standing beside the window, they wouldn’t be
noticed by the fans below.
Himekawa and Sylvia also stood near the window and looked outside. There,
they could see a great number of fans bursting out from the entrance.
Furthermore they were striving to be ahead of each other as if escaping from
something.
P a g e | 89 | Killaruna-X
“Ah! Something shined in the sky just now desu!”
When Yurishia focused her eyes, there were several lights blinking further
ahead of the third castle wall.
The door of the waiting room opened and Marisu entered inside.
“Marisu! Where were you until……no, rather than that what is happening?”
“Izgard and Lemuria’s allied force passed through the Entrance and invaded
this Zeltis you see.”
P a g e | 90 | Killaruna-X
“What did you say!?”
“That’s right desu! At this rate, Zeltis will become a battlefield desu!”
From behind Marisu, unfamiliar silhouettes entered the waiting room without
any reserve. With sharp looks, four knights in red and white uniform lined up in
front of the three of them.
“Imperial guard!?”
The imperial guards were holding gunswords. It was a rifle type with length
around 1.5 meters with behind its stock becoming a sword, it was a weapon
P a g e | 91 | Killaruna-X
unique for the imperial guard. The gun muzzles of those gunswords were
aimed at Amaterasu. However Yurishia didn’t lose her nerve and walked
towards the imperial guards with a smile.
“I wonder what business the imperial guard have here? Aiming such things at
national idols like us――”
An imperial guard pushed her gun muzzle at Yurishia’s chest, as if to stop her.
“Marisu-san!”
Marisu only brushed off her hair as if to ignore Himekawa’s sorrowful yell.
“……I misjudged you. After all you were nothing but our observer from the
beginning weren’t you? Then, we will escape even if it’s with brute force.”
P a g e | 92 | Killaruna-X
Marisu’s shoulders dropped and she sighed.
“Haa……even though I thought that Yurishia-chan is a little wiser than that, this
is unfortunate.”
The gunsword pressed at Yurishia’s chest fell on the floor with a clatter.
“Eh?”
Marisu’s right leg that extended straight sunk into the neck of the imperial
guard.
“That’s whyyy……I told you to wait a little until the hindrances are getting taken
care of.”
“――Wha,”
The imperial guard members at the side aimed her gunsword in panic at
Marisu.
P a g e | 93 | Killaruna-X
“Ga……-!”
Anguished voice leaked out and the imperial guard collapsed with the white of
her eyes exposed.
However as expected from the imperial guard which was an elite group. The
remaining two imperial guard members recovered their calm and pincer
attacked Marisu from back and front.
In order to avoid hitting friendly fire, the changed their hold with the gun at the
opposite direction and slashed at Marisu with swords. Marisu splendidly
evaded the simultaneous attack from back and front. It was like she also had
eyes on the back of her head.
The imperial guard at the front slashed diagonally from above, the attack that
would bisect the body into two was swung at Marisu.
In the eye of the imperial guard member, it was like the figure of Marisu
disappeared in an instant. Marisu spread her leg and her posture lowered as if
she was crawling on the floor.
“Kuh!”
P a g e | 94 | Killaruna-X
The imperial guard member at the back swung down her sword without a
moment’s delay. However Marisu’s super low kick that slid on the floor
scooped out her feet below.
“Ah!”
The imperial guard behind completely had her balance broken and collapsed
on the floor. However during that time, the imperial guard member at the front
aimed the gun muzzle at Marisu.
“――!!”
Just when Marisu resolved herself for that, the imperial guard at the front
slumped down on her knees.
In the eyes of the surprised Marisu, there was the figure of Yurishia standing
behind the imperial guard member reflected.
The remaining imperial guard member leaped far behind from the unexpected
combat skill of Marisu.
P a g e | 95 | Killaruna-X
“This traitor……”
Light of magic power traveled the body of the imperial guard member.
‘――Magic armor!?’
As expected if they let her equip magic armor, they would be helpless.
The imperial guard member opened her mouth to yell the Core’s name.
“Gi――”
“!? ……!!”
Himekawa that was near the window threw the bottle in her hand with a
splendid throwing form.
P a g e | 96 | Killaruna-X
“Gehoh! Gahah!”
Snapped into action, Yurishia and Marisu rushed to the imperial guard
member. Leaping over the two, Sylvia’s body danced in the air.
“HAAAA!”
Sylvia’s small body rotated in the air. The fierce centrifugal force turned the
small leg into a brutal weapon. The kick that possessed destructive force
several times Sylvia’s body weight struck the chin of the imperial guard
member.
“Gah……!?”
Her consciousness was reaped with the attack, the imperial guard member
crumbled down and collapsed.
Sylvia who landed beautifully sighed in relieve and pressed on her chest to
calm her violent heartbeat.
P a g e | 97 | Killaruna-X
Yurishia was irritated at Marisu who was making a peace sign with a smile.
“Nice support there-……that’s not it! You, just what do you want to do?”
Previously when Himekawa and others tried to escape, Marisu couldn’t oppose
the three. In the end at that time, they gave up running away due to Marisu’s
persuasion, but Marisu’s strength was weak and it was absurd for her to be
skilled in hand to hand. However looking at her skill just now, they had the
feeling that previously she might just have been hiding her true strength.
Marisu puffed her chest and answered the doubting gazes of the three.
Marisu smiled thinly at Yurishia who was sternly pursuing the question.
P a g e | 98 | Killaruna-X
“No. I’m just a mere producer. Before, I was in the subjugation army though.”
The subjugation army was different with the imperial guard that was mainly
composed by nobles, it was a troop that was composed from the common
people and the people of the countries absorbed by Vatlantis.
“I lost a lot of friends there……wait, this is not the time for something like my
life story! Now, we have to hurry! Follow me!”
She threw the stage costume at Yurishia who was only in her underwear and
Marisu then rushed out to the corridor.
“Wai……Marisu? You……”
They didn’t understand what was going on at all. However drawn in by the
momentum of Marisu, Yurishia rushed out to the corridor. She was holding her
stage costume chasing Marisu’s behind. And then after her, Himekawa and
Sylvia ran after her.
“E, err, Marisu-san. What are Sylvia and the others going to do desu?”
Marisu answered the question thrown at her back without stopping her legs.
P a g e | 99 | Killaruna-X
“This war is meaningless. By the time Genesis collapsed, this war won’t
accomplish anything.”
“We understand that. But, to stop the fighting, we have to come out and fight
on the battlefield too.”
“What stupid thing are you saying! The three of you have an even more
powerful weapon right!”
“……Eh?”
When they came out from the cramped and small path, their sight suddenly
opened.
A large stage. A lot of lights. Gigantic speakers. Inside the spacious auditorium
were fully packed with seats.
Marisu turned to look at the Amaterasu and spread both her hands widely.
P a g e | 100 | Killaruna-X
“There is only one thing to do for the three of you! It’s to entertain the audience
from on the stage!”
However there was no one in the audience seats. The whole theater was
deserted.
“The audience is all the citizens of Zeltis! Also all the idiots that right now are
killing each other outside!”
The three Amaterasu stared at Marisu’s face for a while from too much shock.
“Are you listening? Right now, the citizens of Zeltis are falling into panic. The
horde of people that are taken by terror don’t understand what they are doing.
Also the fighters that have their blood rushing to their heads are also the same.
Due to the terror of the battle, they are fighting without thinking of anything,
they don’t even understand why they are fighting. Make that kind of bunch to
recover back their calmness, with the song of all of you!”
Marisu clicked her fingers and the lighting of the stage lit up all at once.
P a g e | 101 | Killaruna-X
In front of the three, the stage illuminated by dazzling light was shining
glitteringly. It was a large scale stage that was designed as a beautiful castle. It
had steps where the highest step had the height around a three floor building.
The three were looking up at this stage with deep emotion. This was the
battlefield the three of them and Marisu were fighting at these few months
combining their strength. There was the fact that this was for the people of the
enemy country, but they scattered dream and delight until now. That was for
the sake of escaping from the prison, it was also even for the sake of obtaining
freedom and influence in this country. It was also for the sake of their self-
interest that their might be a chance to escape or leak out information when
they would be going to earth for propaganda.
Even though what they were doing should be only for that.
Now when they thought that danger of death was approaching the people of
this Zeltis, their hearts hurt.
Even if they didn’t say it out loud, the three of them felt the same pain in their
hearts.
P a g e | 102 | Killaruna-X
“Who can do this other than the three of you? The three of you, are the
superstars produced by this me!”
“Isn’t that interesting. Whether it will be our entertainment that wins, or the
magic weapons and bullets that win. Let’s have a match.”
“That’s so. What we can do right now……the thing that only we can do. Let’s do
that. With all our might!”
“Sylvia is……”
At that time, the figure of Ragrus who she was reunited with at the hospital was
resurrected in Sylvia’s mind. Because she beat her in Tokyo, Ragrus lost her
previous life and memory.
Her brilliant smile, her laugh because she loved Sylvia’s song and dance floated
in Sylvia’s eyes. Sylvia clenched her fist.
“Sylvia will also do her best desu! We will absolutely protect desu!”
P a g e | 103 | Killaruna-X
“OK! Then, hurry and prepare! It looks like your comrades are also waiting
already!”
Masters were looking down at them from the highest steps of the stage. At the
center was Scarlet with her arms crossed and her chest puffed out proudly.
“Our side has already gotten ready since a while ago! Amaterasu will be the
second, this Masters is the first to arrive here!”
Himekawa answered while wiping the tear that oozed out from laughing too
much.
P a g e | 104 | Killaruna-X
“My apologies. Exactly as Scarlet-san said, this time Masters is the first.”
“Yes desu!”
Scarlet made a complicated face and turned back at her Masters comrades.
While Masters was having their team meeting, Marisu was talking with the
staff.
The demo for the sound check began to flow from the speaker. When they
looked carefully, there were the staff for the lighting and the sound effects
even though they were few. Most likely they were people with the same feeling
as Marisu.
P a g e | 105 | Killaruna-X
Marisu was confirming with the staff using a loud voice.
“Then, you girls go with the same set list like the previous joint live!”
Masters were waving their hands from above the stage’s steps.
Marisu came in front of Yurishia who was wearing her stage costume and
answered full of confidence.
“……huh?”
P a g e | 106 | Killaruna-X
Marisu whispered something from inside her mouth and the collar fixed on
Yurishia’s neck for the sake of suppressing her magic power raised a dry sound
and split.
“……”
Yurishia’s mind went blank while staring at the collar that fell on the floor.
The collar that she couldn’t break no matter what she did until now, it also
couldn’t get taken off. Now it was disconnected really easily. Yurishia’s body
was trembling all over.
“Ma……Marisu, you……”
Himekawa and Sylvia who had their collars disconnected similarly were also
standing still in astonishment. Their opened mouths couldn’t close.
P a g e | 107 | Killaruna-X
“ “ “EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!?” ” ”
Like a scolded child, Marisu looked away and pouted her mouth.
“Be―cause, if I didn’t do that, all of you would do reckless things and will get
captured or killed. It can’t be helped right?”
Marisu tried to change the topic by clapping her hands and pulled the attention
of the staff.
“Now! Don’t be sulky, we are starting! Let’s surprise the idiots doing war out
there! Starting on air-!!”
P a g e | 108 | Killaruna-X
Part 2
The medium size ship of five hundred meter class accompanying Ataraxia was
raising black smoke.
Explosions occurred on Aruz at the same time with Reiri’s yell. Several rings of
light piled up and spread, the ship’s fragments that turned into light together
with the smoke of the explosion scattered in the sky. It was just like a large
fireworks blooming in the sky. However, the people seeing it couldn’t be
charmed or happy about it.
{Roger!}
P a g e | 109 | Killaruna-X
At that time the Ataraxia greatly shook.
“What happened!?”
{The shield at the right side is at its limit. It will be the end if it gets hit ten more
times.}
“Turn Ataraxia’s direction for 180 degree! The cannon crews, don’t take any rest
there!”
‘――We are outnumbered from the beginning. The Vatlantians take pride in
their overwhelming resources. If it’s purely a difference of combat strength,
perhaps we are just a ten to Vatlantis’s hundred.’
Even so it saved them that Aine’s Code Breaker had gotten rid of the majority
of the enemy’s capital’s ships. Without that, this wouldn’t even be a fight.
P a g e | 110 | Killaruna-X
Perhaps the enemy had gotten used to the situation too, in addition of the
wavelike attacks of the magic weapons, the bombardment from the fleet was
also attacking them in the intervals. It was to the degree that the enemy
wouldn’t balk at shooting down their own magic weapons with their
bombardment.
Reiri slid her hand on the console and opened a new communication line.
Gertrude was flying around all over Ataraxia. She didn’t even have any leeway
to direct here gaze at Reiri that was projected in the floating window. She was
desperately shooting down magic weapons even while replying.
“Anyway the enemy’s number is too many! Magic weapons or anything is fine,
please can you send me a little help here!”
{Right now the crew of Aruz will come to guard Ataraxia. Do your best a little bit
more.}
“Roger!”
P a g e | 111 | Killaruna-X
Gertrude reloaded the cartridge of her pistol and readied it once more.
And then she aimed at the magic weapon trying to board the deck of Ataraxia
and pulled her trigger.
P a g e | 112 | Killaruna-X
Part 3
At that time, Kizuna was running in the underground path that was like a
labyrinth.
It was an underground path that was dug through rock. The wall was bare rock
surface, but the floor was formed from stone blocks. There was no lighting, but
the moss growing on the walls gave out faint luminescence and illuminated the
path.
“Yes.”
Aine was moving forward full of confidence, but Kizuna didn’t understand
where she was running towards and how. Kizuna was anxious if they were
really heading to the castle.
The labyrinth that was made from piled up rocks split into several paths, he
was also losing the sense of direction while advancing through.
“Eh?”
P a g e | 113 | Killaruna-X
Aine slowed her running pace and faced Kizuna.
“The chant I recited when we entered the entrance of the secret path. At the
same time when that door opened, it also became a sorcery that shows the
path. The guidance towards the destination is constantly displayed in my eyes.”
“However, it’s irritating that the path is this small with a lot of corners, we
cannot fly using our thrusters like this. Even though we are in a battle against
time here.”
Kizuna abruptly thought about Ataraxia that was deploying in the fleet battle
and Gravel and Aldea that were remaining behind to hold back the enemy.
‘――Stay safe you all……we are going to stop the battle soon!’
P a g e | 114 | Killaruna-X
Part 4
Aldea evaded the flying arrow of light just before it could hit her. However the
passing arrow drew a large arc and changed direction to attack at Aldea.
The imperial guard Tigris squad captain, Mercuria readied her bow and fired
arrows one after another.
“Fufufu. In front of this [Arcdrive], you won’t be able to even enter the range for
your spear.”
The arrows with automatic homing ability were coming at Aldea in succession.
The arrow that flew straight suddenly burst open in the air.
“!?”
P a g e | 115 | Killaruna-X
The arrow that split into ten-odd arrows surrounded Aldea and attacked.
‘――No matter how solid your shields are, there is no way to defend against
this number!’
Six shields were floating at Aldea’s surrounding. One of it was transformed into
the shape of spear and settled inside Aldea’s hand. Without a moment’s delay
Aldea swung that spear.
“Wha-!?”
That moment, the space in front of Aldea distorted. The arrows aiming at Aldea
were pulled by an unseen power and distanced away from her.
“Haa!”
Aldea swung her spear once more and this time she shrunk the distance until
Mercuria in one go.
P a g e | 116 | Killaruna-X
‘――Wha-!?’
Aldea appeared before her eyes instantly. The spear that shrunk the space
attacked Mercuria this time.
“Ugh!”
The swung spear was barely blocked by the blade of the bow.
She wasted no time to rotate the bow and slashed at Aldea. The bow that was
made from blade that looked like katana tore Aldea’s arm and scattered blood.
However at the same time the tip of the spear touched Mercuria’s thigh. With
the effect of bending space, the leg felt like it was pulled and her body was
blown away. The blood spurted out from the cut apart thigh dyed Aldea’s body
red.
“You-!”
Controlling her blown away body with her thruster, Mercuria braced herself in
the air.
P a g e | 117 | Killaruna-X
“This dress is turning lovely from my blood and your blood spurt isn’t
it……fufufu.”
“Aldea……as always, you still act like a berserker. If only you are a proper
human being, you could even become a platoon captain.”
“I have no interest in such thing. I just want to live as I please. I wonder if you
can stop pushing your small sense of values on me.”
Mercuria pinched the bowstring and slowly pulled her arm. The arrow that
appeared was different from everything until now in appearance. It was far
larger and longer. Just like a cavalry’s spear.
‘――That is? It’s certain that’s not a mere arrow. What kind of ability it has?’
P a g e | 118 | Killaruna-X
Mercuria’s huge arrow was fired. Rather than calling it an arrow, it was more
like a large caliber particle cannon.
‘――This is!?’
“Labyrinth Cube!”
Six pieces of shields changed shape into a cube in a flash and floated in front of
Aldea. The arrow Mercuria fired was sucked into that cube.
Labyrinth Cube was a cube made from the shields that distorted space. It
distorted all the space of the surfaces and created a space isolated from the
outside world. Due to that, the inside of Labyrinth Cube became an absolute
space of Aldea’s will. The thing sucked inside could be freely locked or carved
apart.
However the arrow fired by Arcdrive rampaged with fierce destructive power
inside Labyrinth Cube. The Labyrinth Cube fiercely vibrated and the shields
raised anguished creaking.
P a g e | 119 | Killaruna-X
“Kuh, this is……I’m, at my limit already!”
Unable to bear it, Aldea opened an exit of the Labyrinth Cube. Intense light
traveled to all directions.
The flickering light was gradually vanishing and all the energy of the Arcdrive’s
arrow locked inside Labyrinth Cube was all spitted out.
“For such an arrow with this kind of destructive power to exist, it’s shock――”
Aldea lost her words looking at Mercuria who was nocking the same arrow.
“My bad, but I can prepare this arrow as many as I want. Besides just by
changing the arrow, Arcdrive will transform into weapons that possesses
various abilities. I wonder how far you can withstand it?”
“As I thought it looks like defending is pointless. Then, I too will attack.”
Disassembling Labyrinth Cube, this time Aldea transformed all her shields into
spears. Six spears were floating around Aldea.
P a g e | 120 | Killaruna-X
“I’ll finish you, berserker!”
That light was reflected on the eyes of Gravel that was crossing sword with
Hyakurath.
Pushing back at each other, they took distance for the moment.
“That light……”
“Mercuria is strong. While Aldea still hasn’t been killed yet, you too surrender
yourself.”
“So she will kill Aldea for me……that might be refreshing in its own way.”
P a g e | 121 | Killaruna-X
Hyakurath’s voice trembled with a startled face.
“Yo-, you, she is your comrade even temporarily! What kind of thing you
are――”
“But, I know about you. The captain of Leon squad that is lauded as holy sword
Hyakurath-dono. It is in this kind of situation, but it is an unexpected delight to
be able to cross swords like this.”
Gravel was a veteran hero of the frontier. Even when she was lowered as the
general of Vatlantis, her sixth subjugation army boasted to be undefeated.
P a g e | 122 | Killaruna-X
Hyakurath bit her lower lip.
Honestly speaking, the opponent was scary. Tears were welling up in her eyes.
Hyakurath put strength in the sword she was gripping. She readied the wide
bladed sword with magic letters carved on it, her most reliable weapon. And
then she persuaded herself inside her heart the same like usual.
P a g e | 123 | Killaruna-X
Hyakurath faced Gravel and raised Glorier overhead.
“HAAAA!”
A spirited slash from far distance, Hyakurath’s Glorier was swung. Thereupon
belt of light was fired from the sword like a particle cannon.
Gravel pulled the trigger of her gunsword. From the gun nuzzle, a large caliber
particle cannon was shot. The two lights clashed fiercely in the air. Together
with a dazzling explosion of light, particles of light scattered like fireworks. With
that as a smoke screen, Hyakurath flew forward in one go.
“DEYAAAA!”
She cut apart the smoke by swinging down Glorier. When it was blocked by the
gunsword’s side, sparks scattered intensely. It was a sharp attack. Something
shuddering ran inside Gravel’s chest.
Without any time to rest, Hyakurath wielded her sword with a quick rotation.
Appropriate for an imperial guard that originated from nobles, it was a sword
technique that was elegantly beautiful like a dance.
P a g e | 125 | Killaruna-X
Gravel gritted her teeth.
‘――But it’s not just beautiful. This strength is the real thing.’
“Reaver!”
“!?”
Hyakurath evaded the sword of a light in a hairbreadth. The tips of her hair
were cut from being late in escaping, golden hair danced in the air.
“……tsuu!”
Hyakurath received a shock that her sword didn’t reach the enemy. Gravel
opened the distance using the opening where her movement dulled a little.
P a g e | 126 | Killaruna-X
Gravel stored her gunsword on her back and extended one of her hands. A
magic circle opened at her fingertips, a hilt of sword appeared from inside it.
She casually grasped that hilt and pulled out a new weapon from inside the
magic circle. It was a weapon with six gun barrels lining up as a circle and a
cross sword at the center, the [Sword Gatling]. It was the Corruption Armament
of Gravel’s magic armor Zoros.
It was a powerful weapon, but for Gravel this was a bet. Sword Gatling was a
weapon that was harder to wield than gunsword. If she was approached near,
it would be hard to defend Hyakurath’s sword attacks.
‘――Victory or defeat.’
{Emergency transmission!}
Having the wind taken out of their sails, the two of them embarrassedly replied
to the windows.
P a g e | 127 | Killaruna-X
{The fleet of Ataraxia and Izgard is seriously damaged! A third of the fleet has
sunk! Half of our magic weapons are shot down! Ataraxia’s shield is also lost!
Requesting reinforcement urgently!}
“Kuh……”
“Gravel!”
Her face and also her clothes were sticky wet with blood. She said that half was
the opponent’s blood, but looking at the gashes at her arms and legs, it could
be perceived that she had received quiet a damage.
P a g e | 128 | Killaruna-X
Mercuria also arrived at Hyakurath’s position.
“You, you okay!? Those are really terrible injuries you know?”
Mercuria was also bearing wounds about the same as Aldea. Her face warped
in vexation and she talked as if spitting out.
“Wha, what’s with you! ……Wait, this is not the time for that. Gravel, emergency
communication also came at your place right? Your flagship will soon fall.”
“Is that so? The report I got is that we still have some room to breath though?”
“……It’s unfortunate, but right now I’m not the commander. I’m just a mere
magic knight.”
“I see……then, is it fine for you to not rescue the fleet? We too have to chase
after Ainess-sama, so it will help us if you step aside.”
P a g e | 129 | Killaruna-X
“……ku”
Even as she dressed a calm face, the inside of Gravel’s chest was whirling with
impatience.
Ataraxia would fall while they were taking on Hyakurath and Mercuria here.
But, if they went to help Ataraxia, a hindrance would enter Aine’s mission to
persuade Grace.
Even during this time, the figure of the allied battleships were vanishing from
the data that conveyed to her the battle situation.
“Yu……Yurishia!?”
P a g e | 130 | Killaruna-X
It was not just Gravel that was shocked. When she lifted her face, not to
mention Aldea, the same windows were also displayed in front of Hyakurath
and Mercuria.
Yurishia was wearing a showy and sparkling stage costume. And then when the
camera pulled back, Himekawa and Sylvia’s figures entered the screen.
{Andd~}
The three presented one of their hands to the side as if to give introduction.
{Masters de―su!}
This time Scarlet at the center, Henrietta, Clementine, Sharon, and Leila of
Masters entered the stage side by side. Naturally, they were wearing gorgeous
and lovely stage costumes.
Hyakurath whispered with a face that was more dumbfounded than amazed.
P a g e | 131 | Killaruna-X
When Gravel took a peek at Ataraxia’s communication window, she understood
that the same image was sent to Ataraxia’s bridge. People looking up at the
screen in befuddlement and people moving about in confusion searching for
the origin of the transmission were mixed.
{This is not a two way communication. Most likely this is directed to all
communication terminals in this whole battlefield area, this is being
transmitted all over.}
Just like Kei’s information, this broadcast was transmitted towards the whole
battlefield area, it was also further sent to the communication terminals all
over the city of Zeltis. Regardless whether it was public or personal, the
transmission forcefully entered all information interface and opened windows.
This was something using the emergency broadcast line that Vatlantis’s
publicity department managed. In other words this was an abuse of authority
by Marisu.
P a g e | 132 | Killaruna-X
The allied forces of Izgard and Ataraxia, Vatlantis army, the city of Zeltis, all the
screens everywhere were projecting Amaterasu and Masters’s figures.
{Everyone― actually is thinking inside their heart right? I don’t want to kill
others, just why do we have to do something like this―, something like that.}
Himekawa clapped her hands and threw a straight forward earnest gaze.
Sylvia clenched both her hands and appealed with a desperate face.
{First let’s hear what they have to say desu. With that, if everyone of Izgard and
Lemuria is planning to invade Zeltis, only then we can start fighting from there
desu.}
P a g e | 133 | Killaruna-X
{Even if we said that, those guys whose blood has rushed to their heads might
not listen to this though―}
{It’s better to try doing it like usual……wearing your favorite clothes. Passing
time together with the people close to you……talking, what is it that I want to
do, what is the best thing to do……think.}
{That’s right. Everyone wants their important people to go back home safely.
Even the people in the battlefield want to return home safely. Isn’t that
something obvious? Because, life is something money cannot buy.}
{Anyways, don’t get flustered or get excited into panic! Not just soldiers but all
of you citizens too, calm down before taking action. Don’t do any unbecoming
riots even mistakenly! Let’s welcome the guest with a dignified attitude.}
Scarlet whose face was looking down looked up, she raised one of her hands
and pointed to the sky.
P a g e | 134 | Killaruna-X
{Because, all of you are the proud people of Vatlantis right? And then, above
all……}
She vigorously brought down her arm and pointed towards the screen.
Fireworks went up behind Amaterasu and Masters. The fireworks created from
sorcery shined in seven colors, turned into fragments and rained down on the
stage. And then the lighting illuminated the stage and made the figures of the
idols stood out.
The voice of the eight girls of Amaterasu and Master united, and when the intro
singing voice started flowing, music began to play in unison. The moment the
melody started, the eight made a big jump.
Light of magic power was rushing everywhere inside the empty Vatlantis
Empire theater. Beads of light that were sparkling from reflection were raining
down. The performance of light began to enliven up the stage. And then
singing voices that charmed the people of Vatlantis Empire reverberated
throughout the whole Zeltis and battlefield area.
P a g e | 135 | Killaruna-X
The feet of the people that tried to escape Zeltis and rushed for the castle wall
stopped.
“This song is Amaterasu and Masters? They are doing live in this kind of time?”
“Didn’t you hear? Right now they are doing a live in the empire theater.”
The citizens in possession of personal receiver showed the screen of the live
show to the nearby person.
“No, this is undoubtedly a live broadcast. But Amaterasu is doing a live right
now you know? Isn’t it fine even if we don’t get this panicked to escape?”
The city was gradually recovering its calm. Charmed by the song and dance,
everyone was fixed on the screen. The children looked at the image and
P a g e | 136 | Killaruna-X
danced by mimicking it. Smile returned to the faces of the people seeing that.
And then the adults too waved their hands in unison with the tune and
jumped.
When a worried person called out to her, the girl’s step stopped. It was a petite
girl with bigly rolled twintail as her characteristic. On her young looking cute
face, a smile of expectation was floating.
“To the theater of course! There is no way I can overlook something like a
reserved stage of Amaterasu!”
After yelling that, she turned on her heel and ran in the direction opposite of
the flow of the people.
Former imperial guard. The girl Ragrus who lost her memory at the occasion
when she fought Sylvia at the Tokyo recapture operation, was running with a
face that was hopelessly joyful.
Looking at that smile, the Amaterasu and Masters’s fans that were in that place
made faces of realization.
P a g e | 137 | Killaruna-X
“I see……if we go there now, we can watch this stage isn’t it?”
“Shitt, I was chased out because they said the performance was cancelled
but……they are actually doing it!”
Spurred by those words, the fans that similarly got out of the venue due to
receiving notification that the performance was cancelled went after the girl.
The audience that had gone home for once were returning to the empire
theater one after another. Even people without tickets were thinking that they
might be able to just enter if it was now and they were rapidly gathering. The
hearts of the people of Zeltis was already not directed to the battlefield.
The imperial capital Zeltis had been completely controlled by Amaterasu and
Masters right now.
P a g e | 138 | Killaruna-X
Part 5
Even the first subjugation army taking position at the front line of Vatlantis’s
side was faced with a choice exactly right now.
{This is imperial guard. First subjugation army, why are you stopping the
bombardment? Depending on the situation you will be court martialed!}
The captain of the first subjugation army was listening to that communication
in discouragement.
Even when she was pressed like that by the vice captain, the captain was only
playing with her long hair without answering. She was sitting deeply into the
flagship captain’s seat and only kept staring at the stage of Amaterasu and
Masters streaming in the window before her eyes. That song and dance were
healing her heart that was tired with the battle.
“But?”
P a g e | 139 | Killaruna-X
“Honestly, my will to fight is completely gone already. Well, I wonder if that’s
the answer.”
The vice captain looked at her right and sent instruction to the fleet.
“First subjugation army, inform the whole fleet. Absolutely don’t lay a hand to
the Lemuria-Izgard army! However don’t let your guard down! Make it so we
can restart the battle anytime!”
Similar exchanges were happening here and there among the subjugation
army’s fleets. And then the bombardment from Vatlantis was stopping in
succession.
Hyakurath was staring at that situation with a feeling that was unable to
understand.
Gravel stared at the screen that conveyed to her the battle situation and
narrowed her eyes.
P a g e | 140 | Killaruna-X
“That’s……”
This battle was according to the command of her majesty the emperor. This
battle should be for the sake of defeating the enemy that was coming to invade
this Zeltis……and then how, it turned out like this? Why, the subjugation army
didn’t listen to the order?
“Hyakurath. Can’t you understand too? We are not coming here in order to rule
over Vatlantis.”
Filling the fingers gripping Glorier with strength, Hyakurath replied with a
trembling voice.
“No matter what the people of the empire are feeling about it……we the
imperial guard will move in accordance to the heart of her majesty the
emperor! Now that Ainess-sama is going mad, without any order from Grace-
sama, we the imperial guard cannot sheath back our sword!”
P a g e | 141 | Killaruna-X
“Informing the whole imperial guard. The subjugation army is useless. Defeat
the Lemuria-Izgard army with the hands of the imperial guard! All ships
forward. Annihilate the enemy fleet!”
“The imperial guard members are to equip their magic armors and launch.
Leopard squad, Volk squad, sink down the enemy flagship. Leon squad, Tigris
squad, return to the imperial castle and protect Grace-sama!”
“Hyakurath!”
“The values of the imperial guard and I won’t be shaken by something like this.”
At Ataraxia too, they had detected the sign of the ships approaching them. The
movement was obviously faster than all the battleships until now. Moreover
they were also taking lead.
P a g e | 142 | Killaruna-X
Reiri clicked her tongue while looking at the enemy’s movement.
“They are different from all the enemies until now……so the imperial guard
came out.”
Their number was few. At best around twenty battleships and two hundred
magic weapons. But, they were remarkably formidable compared to the
subjugation army that was their opponent until now.
Fast magic weapons came into contact with them in the blink of an eye.
Ataraxia shook greatly as if to thrust away Reiri that was going to give out
order.
“How is it!?”
Reiri’s question wasn’t answered by Kei or the operator, but by Gertrude that
was on the deck.
{The battleships are bombarding us! Their aim is accurate, the power also has
wide difference!}
It was surely unbearable for Gertrude that was on the deck. Although there
was shield, the explosion impacted right nearby. The sound and impact of that
were tremendous.
P a g e | 143 | Killaruna-X
Gertrude that was looking far away was showing a cramped smile.
{Uwa―, of all things, the enemy is also coming out with magic armors see……}
The imperial guard members could turn the autopilot of the battleships they
led or move it remotely. Exactly as Hyakurath commanded, the imperial guards
were putting their magic armor and aimed at Ataraxia.
{If they reach here……it will be, really the end for us…..}
Right after that was said, shockwave assaulted them in succession. An operator
raised her voice with face that was going to cry.
Even before she was finished talking, large shaking that was incomparable with
anything until now attacked Ataraxia. The hull was tilting and even Reiri needed
to cling on her chair.
P a g e | 144 | Killaruna-X
{Reiri. There is a force that is approaching in high speed.}
“What are you saying this late? That must be the imperial guard of Vatlantis
right?”
{Wrong.}
“……What?”
At that time, a magic armor was rushing towards the bridge of Ataraxia.
It was a magic armor that vaguely resembled Neros heading towards the
bridge with sword in one hand. It was planning to directly board the bridge and
attack the crew.
No, a gigantic claw seized her and the magic armor broke apart instantly.
P a g e | 145 | Killaruna-X
“Wha……”
Golden armor was flowing outside the window. No matter how long the thing
kept flowing through, so it could be imagined that the object was terrifyingly
huge.
Before long that object displayed its figure in front of Ataraxia. A long neck
more than a hundred meters long that was largely lifted up. Four wings
glowing gold. Giant tail that was longer for twice than the neck.
“Thi……this is……”
The Golden Dragon was heading to the battleships of the imperial guard and
opened its mouth. Its wings shined and golden light was gathering in the
dragon’s torso. And then, together with a fierce radiance, vast amount of
particles surged out from the mouth. It was a gigantic particle cannon. Just
when they thought that the light exploded, the battleships of the imperial
guard were pierced.
P a g e | 146 | Killaruna-X
Great explosion occurred on the battleship, and the battleship sunk while
scattering fragments of light around.
When Gravel looked up at the sky, magic weapons in the shape of dragons
were flying as a flock. Hyakurath bit her lips in frustration.
Hyakurath readied her sword. Behind her, Mercuria nocked an arrow. And then
the two’s combination attack was going to attack Gravel. At that time――,
“Wha-!?”
The crimson flame that possessed tremendous pressure hit Hyakurath and
Mercuria directly.
“KYAAAAAAAAA!”
P a g e | 147 | Killaruna-X
Although they immediately put up their shields, the violent impact blown them
away. They somehow braced themselves and looked up.
“This is……”
A shadow with three necks was swooping down. The body that was near a
hundred meters long in total was completed with crystal wings that shined red.
It was a category-Ultra magic weapon, Tri-Head.
“Hohohohohoho, I have been waiting for this time! Aah, how refreshing! What a
refreshing feeling this is! The humiliation of before, I will return it in full to the
Vatlantis army here!”
The female riding at the back of the Tri-Head entangled her finger in her soft
wavy light blue hair.
P a g e | 148 | Killaruna-X
“Hohoho, I can return my resentment to Vatlantis like this. Of course it really
clears my mood like this!”
Ruleo lifted her arm and dragon type magic weapons like Dragre and so on
were swooping down from the sky one after another.
For the imperial guard members, that scene must be like a display of devils
coming down on them.
“My, how rude. I’ve said already to go easy on the enemy so at least they can
properly have emergency landing.”
“You……”
“You will have to live your whole life from now on, holding importantly the
memory of your defeat against this me♪”
P a g e | 149 | Killaruna-X
Gravel shook her head in amazement.
However, with this they could fight the imperial guard on equal standings. But,
it was not their objective to annihilate the imperial guard. Rather than that,
they had to deal with the Genesis even for a second faster.
Gravel stared at the Genesis that was towering far away beyond the castle wall
and the imperial castle standing at its base.
P a g e | 150 | Killaruna-X
CHAPTER 3
THE SHOWDOWN BETWEEN
NOTHINGNESS AND DEATH
It seemed that this was a corridor, but even so the ceiling was high and the
width was also wide.
The ornaments of the walls were also of complex make that depicted plants
and humans. This was not a corridor, even if he was told that this was a long
and narrow parlor or a hall for party use he would believe it.
After getting out from the underground labyrinth and opening the door they
finally reached, behind the door was already inside the castle. Kizuna looked
around curiously at the inside of the imperial castle that he saw for the first
time.
Aine turned on her heel and ran through the corridor without hesitation.
Slightly behind her, Kizuna was also following. Before long a door that might be
P a g e | 151 | Killaruna-X
as high as five meters appeared at the end of the path. It was a thick door with
relief carved on the whole surface. Most likely this was the audience room Aine
spoke about.
The door was left slightly opened. What made him concerned was the crack on
the door and how one side of the door was tilting and almost came off.
“Kizuna, wait outside the room. You absolutely must not enter inside.”
Aine nodded with a nervous look and entered inside the room from the gap of
the door.
There was no figure of people inside the audience room. The room that was as
wide as a hundred meters at each side was deserted and a bleak atmosphere
was drifting off inside. The windows split, crack entered everywhere on the
wall, the angel relief that was created in detail with great pain was in pieces.
Even the floor had several fissures and depressions on it.
P a g e | 152 | Killaruna-X
Aine walked towards the throne. When she arrived at the center of the room,
she noticed that there was a person above the stairs in front of her. It seemed
that the person was huddling her limbs roundly on the chair.
“……Grace?”
After that there was no movement at all for a while, but before long that figure
directed at Aine her blank eyes slowly.
“Nee……sama?”
“Ne……Nee-sama-!”
And then she rushed down the stair as if rolling on it. When she really was
going to roll down, she raised her voice. However before that happened Grace
made a great jump and landed on the red carpet. And then she ran until in
front of Aine with all her strength.
P a g e | 153 | Killaruna-X
“NEE-SAMAAAAAAAA-!”
“Grace!?”
Aine received the body of her little sister into her embrace. Grace was losing
herself in hugging Aine. It was as if she was making sure of Aine’s existence, but
it was also as if she was scared that Aine would vanish and be gone. Aine
hugged at her sister’s small back.
Grace was sobbing convulsively while continuing to call at Aine. Each time she
called her, her voice stabbed at Aine’s heart. Grace finally separated her body
from Aine while her nose was sniffling.
“Grace……”
P a g e | 154 | Killaruna-X
“All those foolish people gave me thoughtless words, that Nee-sama is
colluding with the enemy army, that Nee-sama is even standing at the lead of
the enemy. They are really stupid people that cannot be forgiven.”
“But, it’s true that lowlifes are advancing towards this Zeltis. But so what, if
there are me and Nee-sama, it will be no trouble at all to scatter them away
with the two of us.”
“Nee-sama?”
“You are wrong. Izgard and also Lemuria are not coming here to fight see.”
Grace was staring at the face of her big sister with a puzzled expression.
“If Vatlantis stops attacking, they too will stop their attack. They are not coming
to invade, they are coming in order to repair Genesis and save this world.”
P a g e | 155 | Killaruna-X
“Are you sane Nee-sama!? Such story cannot be trusted!”
“Then why is Nee-sama opposing me? Why, is Nee-sama their ally and not
mine!”
P a g e | 156 | Killaruna-X
Aine’s body stiffened with a twitch.
“Yes……that’s right.”
“……I lost.”
“And so Nee-sama escaped from the enemy here? No, Nee-sama safely came
back to me. This time let’s combine our strength and defeat the demon king,
isn’t that right Nee-sama?”
P a g e | 157 | Killaruna-X
Aine hung her head down and shook her head.
“I want Grace to give the order for ceasefire. Rather than the war, right now the
priority is to repair the Genesis.”
Grace let go of Aine’s arm. She was distancing herself from Aine with a
stumble.
“Nee-sama, doesn’t care of me at all anymore. More than this world, Lemuria
is……more than me, Nee-sama chose Lemuria’s demon king over me!?”
“Just what are you saying!? This is not about which one is more important. At
this rate, everyone will die. I also want to help Grace! That’s why――”
Aine reached her hand towards Grace. However, Grace struck that hand with
all her strength.
P a g e | 158 | Killaruna-X
“Lies! Nee-sama lie to me! You betrayed me! You abandoned me. Not just once,
but even for the second time……”
“If Nee-sama won’t become mine, I’ll refuse this kind of world! If this world is
going to ruin, that’s just fine! It’s better for this world to break and disappear!”
“Wait, Grace!”
“Koros!”
Grace’s body was wrapped in pink light. She emitted radiance that was in a
different league than when other people equipped their Heart Hybrid Gear or
magic armor. The audience room was filled with light, and then the light burst
out in one go.
Grace’s body could be mistaken to be stark naked. There were only decorations
modeled after feathers that barely hid the tips of her breast and her nether
region. And then there were clawed armors at both her arms. Both her legs
were equipped with thin silver and gold armors, her heels were provided with
wings for the sake of soaring to the sky. On her waist was floating armor that
looked like tail feathers, a tiara was mounted on her head.
P a g e | 159 | Killaruna-X
And then greatly spreading wings of only bones made from blades were
growing on her back. Colored with silver and gold, they were really beautiful
and ominous wings. Those wings flapped and Grace’s body floated in the air.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
Magic power was emitted from the whole body together with the roar. It
became a terrific shockwave and shook the audience room. The walls at four
directions were blown away as if being exploded, the pillars supporting the
ceiling broke apart. That shockwave was even going to blow away Kizuna’s
body that was outside the room.
Just the surge of magic power was destroying the castle. She was a possessor
of a terrifying amount of magic power.
Kizuna tried to escape, but he found that Aine was standing still at the center of
the audience room even now that he gave up that plan.
P a g e | 160 | Killaruna-X
Aine was desperate in trying to convey her feelings to Grace. However Grace
shook her head as if to throw a tantrum.
Aine’s chest felt a sharp pain. Those were words that she had never heard until
now for even once from Grace’s mouth. Even though this was that Grace who
always told her that she loved her at any time.
Aine spread her arms defenselessly. As if waiting for Grace to leap at her.
Grace who was floating in the air thrust out one of her hands as if to strike
from above. Light of magic power flew out from that arm. The fist that was
hiding explosive destructive power flew towards Aine.
“Aine!!”
P a g e | 161 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna jumped out from the shadow of the door. Kizuna who had done Climax
Hybrid with Aine traversed the audience room with speed that equaled Zeros
and barged in front of Aine.
“Kizuna-!?”
Grace’s shining fist hit Kizuna. Terrific flash and explosion enveloped Kizuna
and Aine. Fierce explosion broke the stone of the floor, the torn off floor flew to
all directions. Dust cloud and steam cloud enshrouded the room and stole the
field of vision. Before long wind that blew in from the broken walls cleared the
smoke. Grace whose figure appeared from inside there warped her face.
The Life Saver laid out in front of Kizuna was broken apart. There were five Life
Savers he immediately laid out. Four of them were instantly broken. It was a
strike that was fired with pure violent force. So to speak it was like a waved
hand that hit by chance. It was just an attack of that level.
P a g e | 162 | Killaruna-X
“Lemuria’s demon king, Hida Kizuna. You are deceiving Nee-sama. You bastard
kidnapped Nee-sama.”
Grace waved her hand and particles of light were fired from her palm. The light
that was like laser was obviously in a different level with the attack that was
fired just now.
“――!”
Kizuna hugged Aine and kicked the ground. The floor of beautiful stone that
resembled marble broke apart in explosion.
The place where Kizuna and Aine were at just a moment before was pierced by
the laser Grace fired. That light gouged hole on the floor and pierced through
until the lowest level of the castle.
Kizuna kept hugging Aine in his embrace and fully opened his thrusters, he flew
outside the castle from the hole in the wall.
P a g e | 163 | Killaruna-X
“No way……but, what should I”
“Only you, the one who mislead Nee-sama, I can only feel satisfied after I kill
you with this hand before the world breaks down!”
Kizuna made a large turn and he flew weaving between the several giant spires
towering inside the castle.
“Aine, it doesn’t look like this can be settled down as long as we don’t fight.”
“But……”
“In her state, our words won’t reach her. But if we fight and win, at the very
least we can make her listen to us. In order to convey our feelings……we can
only fight now! Even if you argued, you can just reconcile with each other later.
But, you cannot even do that if the world breaks down!”
P a g e | 164 | Killaruna-X
Aine pursed her lips tightly.
Kizuna released his hands that were hugging Aine and stopped in the air. Grace
who showed her appearance after weaving through the spires saw Aine and
Kizuna lying in wait and put an abrupt stop. She was glaring at the two from a
distance, as expected she might be cautious of them.
Light of magic power surged out from Grace’s body like an aura.
Aine lifted her palm to the front. Magic circle developed from her fingertips.
When her hand went inside the magic circle, she pulled out the only long range
weapon of Zeros from inside.
“Grace, it’s painful to fight you but……I’m fighting right now, exactly because I
love you.”
P a g e | 165 | Killaruna-X
“O, oi, certainly I said to fight but, isn’t it fine to not go as far as using
Corruption Armament for this? If you kill her with your hand, there will be no
meani――”
“What?”
“I don’t think that I can defeat her with something like this but, this can be used
to measure the ability of Koros.”
“Pulverizer is just a mere measuring device……hey, you are saying that even
though this thing can annihilate even a battleship?”
Kizuna looked at Grace once more. Far from fearing Pulverizer, she was
wearing a smile as if making light of them.
“Preparing something like that, just what are you going to do Nee-sama?”
The space around Aine was vibrating, sound that resembled rumbling ground
and fierce electrical discharge were running. It was the proof of Pulverizer
preparing to fire.
P a g e | 166 | Killaruna-X
“Here I go Grace!”
Aine pulled the trigger without hesitation. The next moment, sound
disappeared from the surroundings. And then light that blinded the eye
exploded from the muzzle of Pulverizer. Fierce roar reverberated and radiance
that pulverized all time and space flew towards Grace.
The event happening before his eyes was something unbelievable for Kizuna.
“Wha……-!?”
It was a weapon that pulverized the thing that existed in that spot both
spatially and temporally. Material was divided until micro unit with the existing
position and the existing time shifted. Due to that, no matter what kind of
existence it was, it would be pulverized into pieces by this sure kill weapon of
Zeros.
P a g e | 167 | Killaruna-X
But, Grace was making a smile that looked down on them from the other side
of the wings made from blades.
It wasn’t that the effect of Pulverizer became nothing. At the range where the
effect reached, namely the castle spire behind Grace and so on was
disappearing without any sound. Inside the radiance of the Pulverizer, only
Grace and Koros were safe.
Aine lowered down Pulverizer. Steam was ejected all in one go from the
barrel’s removal nozzle.
P a g e | 168 | Killaruna-X
Grace spread her wings. The light of the shining wing that looked electrified
was moving to Grace’s body. As it happened, Grace’s skin became even more
glossy, and her pink hair was becoming increasingly beautiful in its radiance.
“Yes, Nee-sama’s magic power is really delicious. It’s far different from the trash
of the riff-raff.”
She stuck out her small tongue and licked her pink lips. Those lips were shining
in luster.
The wings that were formed just from bones flapped. The radiance that the
wings left behind were fired towards Kizuna and Aine from the force.
“Kizuna!”
The two of them backed off with Aine’s yell as the signal. They fully opened
their thrusters and hid at the back side of the castle spire. The beads of light
that were like buckshot were being absorbed into the spire one after another.
And then they let out bright red flame and caused a large explosion.
“UOO!?”
P a g e | 169 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna and also Aine were going to be swallowed by the explosion. They were
blown away by the explosion blast and the shockwave and floated in the air
with tumbles. There the fragments of rock that became pieces and giant rock
where there were some that even had a diameter of several dozen meters
rained down at them.
“Shit-!”
After they barely dodged, the tip of the broken spire was falling to the ground
of the castle. It impacted the ground and rolled up dust cloud while breaking.
Kizuna and Aine fixed their posture using their thrusters and distanced
themselves from that spot in order to open a distance from Grace. And then
they circled around Genesis and withdrew from the castle. The urban area of
Zeltis spread below them and at the sky above the battle between Baldein’s
dragon type force and the imperial guard was progressing.
“Wha, what!? There are dragon shaped magic weapons all over the place!”
Kizuna was looking around at the dragon type magic weapons like Dragre and
Tri-Head and so on flying all over the sky with surprised eyes.
P a g e | 170 | Killaruna-X
{Every―one! We are still going strong. Are you all still lively?}
“Wha-……Himekawa!?”
At the same time when Sylvia said out the song name, the audience’s
excitement was seething. Most likely it was a hit song. The lights overflowing
the audience seats were fiercely undulating. The people were waving
something like glow sticks to express their happiness.
However, Kizuna was knocked out of his wits looking at that scenery.
Kizuna stared at Aine looking for an answer, but Aine was also staring at the
screen with a surprised expression.
“WHATT!?”
P a g e | 171 | Killaruna-X
An alert rang out covered with Sylvia and the others’ singing voices.
When they turned around, there was Grace fully spreading open her wings.
Shining light was residing in the wings, Its shape changed like wings that were
growing feathers. Something shuddering was creeping up Aine’s back.
Aine opened her floating window and sent communication to the surrounding
area.
Hyakurath and Mercuria, also the dragon force too, they couldn’t surmise the
meaning of Aine’s warning. The commander, Ruleo, was also cocking her head
in puzzlement at the sudden warning with a dubious face.
“This is, communication from Ainess? Is she mistakenly sending this even to the
enemy?”
P a g e | 172 | Killaruna-X
Even with Aine’s yell, everyone was just getting perplexed and their legs
stopped.
“This is no good! At this rate everyone will get dragged into this. Circle back to
the opposite side――”
But at that time, Grace’s wings were fully stored with feathers of light, her
appearance was changed as if she was a real angel. And then the scythe of
massacre that reaped all magic power was fired.
“Harvest.”
The feathers of light growing from Grace’s wings were released all at once.
Looking at that, memory of terror was resurrected at the back of the mind of
Ruleo who was the commander of the dragon force. The feathers of the god of
death who exterminated Baldein’s dragon force by her lonesome. That
terrifying Harvest was once again assaulting.
“Re……retreat!”
The feathers of Harvest attacked with terrifying speed. The dragon force
became prey the very first.
P a g e | 173 | Killaruna-X
The magic weapons of the dragon force were pierced by the feathers of Koros
and they promptly lost their light. The dragons that were livelily rushing around
the battlefield just now stiffened like mere stone statues and fell to the ground.
Ruleo that was staring hard at that figure became pale and yelled one more
time.
Whipping the Tri-Head that she was riding, Ruleo also escaped from that place.
Looking at the escaping enemy, the imperial guard members raised cheers.
But, that was only happening for a moment.
“GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
An imperial guard member wearing magic armor was pierced by the feathers
and raised a death throe. The imperial guard members’ complexion changed
instantly. Without any distinction between enemy or ally, several dozen magic
weapons became preys one after another. The feathers of light fired from
Koros’s wings rushed through the sky freely in all directions. And then the
magic power of the magic weapons were being absorbed haphazardly.
P a g e | 174 | Killaruna-X
“Wha-! Retreat-, emergency――kyaaaaaa!”
Harvest also mercilessly attacked the imperial guards. Hyakurath also had her
magic power sucked and lost her magic armor.
“Shit-! Hyakurath!”
That time when Gravel yelled, Aldea was attacked by Koros’s feather in a bad
luck.
“I’ll defend with Zeel’s shield! That’s why use this time――”
However the feathers of Harvest pierced Aldea’s body altogether with the
shield and harvested her magic power.
“Aldea!”
P a g e | 175 | Killaruna-X
Zeel that protected Aldea’s body vanished and her body was falling.
“Ku……-!”
Gravel caught Aldea’s body in the air and then she was dropping while looking
for a safe place. And then with a frustrated face she looked up at the sky of
Zeltis where the sun was setting.
Aine and Kizuna were also trying to shake off Harvest’s feathers and
desperately moving with acrobatic movements dancing in the air. However no
matter how tricky a movement they did, the feathers of Harvest kept following
without slowing down.
“Until the magic power of the feather itself runs out, it will keep chasing us no
matter where!”
The feathers that pierced the magic weapons and magic armors absorbed their
magic power and then they returned back to Grace’s position. And then the
feathers settled at the wings before their radiance was absorbed into Grace’s
body, supplying her magic power.
P a g e | 176 | Killaruna-X
“That’s the secret of Grace’s strength. Only Grace will never run out of magic
power……Hybrid Count no matter what.”
The feathers chasing from behind filled the distance in the blink of an eye.
Harvest’s feathers were approaching before their eyes. At that moment, a giant
shadow covered their field of vision.
“What-!?”
“This is……”
The Tri-Head blocked the Harvest’s feathers with its body. Many feathers
pierced the Tri-Head’s body. The crystal wings that were shining beautifully lost
their light. That gigantic body was beginning to slowly fall down. Ruleo
separated herself from the Tri-Head’s back with sad eyes. And then she stared
P a g e | 177 | Killaruna-X
with sorrowful eyes at the feathers that left after sucking the magic power of
the Tri-Head.
Kizuna worried whether he should say his gratitude or apologize and was
unable to immediately say something.
“But……I saw that currently you and him are fighting that Grace.”
“I am observing the power of Grace’s Koros and the power of your Zeros too.
Honestly speaking, I cannot find an idea of the way to defeat Koros. But──”
P a g e | 178 | Killaruna-X
“Ainess, there is no doubt that your Zeros has the only method to oppose her.
To lose my dragon once more is an unbearable distress for me, but we will lose
all chance of victory if we lose you right now.”
“You are……”
Aine nodded with a tight face and stared at the destination where Harvest’s
feathers were returning.
Light emitted from Aine’s thrusters and she flew up towards the direction
where Grace was. Kizuna was following behind her.
What was the method to oppose that ability? Kizuna increased his speed and
flew at Aine’s side.
P a g e | 179 | Killaruna-X
If even that was no good then there really would be nothing that could be
done.
“However……”
He was about to say that he would fight together with her but, if he was nearby
her then Aine wouldn’t be able to wield the ability of Code Breaker to her
heart’s content.
P a g e | 180 | Killaruna-X
It was as if Grace had just noticed after this late, she stared over the armies of
Baldein and Vatlantis at the far away. And then when she looked at the figures
of magic weapons and magic armors falling on the ground, she shook her head
boredly.
“Indeed, this is why the magic power is shoddy. Well, it doesn’t matter. After all
when this world ends, all the people will perish. It’s only a matter of sooner or
later.”
“Grace!”
Even when she was rebuked sharply by Aine, Grace just returned a faint smile.
“No, let’s pass our time together in this brief moment until the ruin arrives. But,
Nee-sama’s life is mine. Even if one is the goddess of fate herself, I have no
intention to hand over Nee-sama. Everything of Nee-sama is only mine……”
“Grace……you”
“Code Breaker!”
P a g e | 181 | Killaruna-X
With the ring part as the center, shining blue sorcery letters and graphics were
unfolding and drew a magic circle.
“Harvest!”
Feathers of light were fired from Grace’s wings like arrows. Ten-odd arrows of
light entangled with each other and attacked at Aine.
The magic circle of Code Breaker that extended in belt shape circled the
surrounding to protect Aine. There the light arrows of Harvest clashed. The two
lights of magic power scattered intense sparks and locked with each other.
“Ah!?”
The light arrows of Harvest were absorbing the magic circle of Code Breaker.
The belt of magic circle was decreasing little by little.
Aine’s eyes were shining red. She increased the number of magic circle belt
circling around her body and increased the rotation speed.
P a g e | 182 | Killaruna-X
“Hou……”
As if being washed away by the magic circle of Code Breaker that was drifting
like a storm, Harvest’s arrows were being disassembled into magic formula.
“Second person?”
Instantly flame of rage was blazing up and rushed about inside Grace.
P a g e | 183 | Killaruna-X
Her pink sapphire hair emitted radiance and arrows of light were fired from
her wings one after another.
“Code Breaker!”
The lights of magic power the two released crossed each other. The lights
clashed and several flashes twinkled. Sparks scattered and small chain
explosions occurred. The floods of light released from the two clashed against
each other fiercely in the air.
The arrows of light slipping through the clash absorbed the magic circle
protecting Aine’s body, on the other hand Aine’s magic circle disassembled the
the light of Grace’s wings.
The two sisters wearing the magic armors that were mutually extolled as the
strongest.
The clash between the strongest abiilty and the strongest ability made
superficial strategy or tactic to be powerless.
P a g e | 184 | Killaruna-X
It was a frontal clash, just earnestly striking each other, crumbling down each
others’ guard mutually, a war of attrition.
“HAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
Aine yelled.
“I hate someone like Nee-sama! It’s fine already even if Nee-sama is gone! Nee-
sama, anyone and him too, everyone. I will destroy everyone!”
The power of Harvest increased. Aine was pushed back by Grace’s pressure. It
felt like Aine’s heart was being shaved off each time Grace expressed her
sorrow.
At that time, the clash of magic powers broke through the critical point.
Suddenly an explosion occurred in front of Aine.
“Aine!?”
Aine’s figure appeared from inside the smoke. However the magic circle of
Code Breaker had completely vanished.
It was the result of the abilities of Harvest and Code Breaker negating each
other.
P a g e | 185 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna noticed that the window displaying Aine’s vital sign was flashing red. At
that moment, the inside of Kizuna’s chest shuddered coldly.
That was the alert which let him know that Aine’s Hybrid Count had entered the
red zone. At the time when she took care of Vatlantis’s fleet with Code Breaker,
she had forced herself quite much. Now the time that she had to pay for it was
coming to her.
“Shit……”
Sweat was trickling down on Kizuna’s forehead that was grimly grimacing.
Aine couldn’t be let to fight more than this. Then, how should they defeat
Grace?
P a g e | 186 | Killaruna-X
If we can inflict physical attack from close range, then I can see the chance of
victory. However if we get near, then our Hybrid Count will be mercilessly
stolen by Harvest.
It will be easy if that’s doable. To do something like evading arrows of light, the
speed needed for that…….
──No.
It’s doable.
That time when I once fought Yurishia, it was only for an instant but I fought in
a speed that approached even the speed of light. Right now, I’m in the same
condition like that time, I’ve just did Climax Hybrid with Zeros.
“Kizuna-!?”
P a g e | 187 | Killaruna-X
Aine raised a flustered voice at Kizuna who suddenly entered the battle
territory.
‘Remember that time you fought Yurishia. The speed of that time once more!’
Thrusters were created at Kizuna’s back and legs. It was as though parts were
growing from his body at the places where there were nothing, the parts were
constructed in the blink of an eye.
“Here I go!”
He surpassed the speed of sound instantly and shook away all other speed.
Everything looked like slow motion to Kizuna. He passed beside Aine who was
opening her mouth yelling and rushed to Grace.
The arrows of light of Harvest were flying at him to attack. Their shape properly
looked like feathers, their speed was fast, but it was possible to be evaded.
P a g e | 188 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna was evading the lights of Harvest by weaving through the gap while
heading to Grace. The lights of Harvest passed over Kizuna before they tried to
change their direction as if having noticing him. However, at that time Kizuna
had already arrived until just a single step before Grace.
‘――Got her!’
Kizuna pulled his fist and aimed an attack at Grace. He determined his aim at
her defenseless abdomen. He wouldn’t kill her, but he would inflict a damage
that made it impossible for her to fight.
“You are Aine’s little sister but, don’t think bad of this. This is also――”
Koros’s wings were wings that were only made from bone frame. Those bones
were each turned into a sharp blade.
P a g e | 189 | Killaruna-X
“……Wha-!?”
The scythe that Grace was holding had long handle, the large sized blade that
was drawing an arc at its end was shining coldly. It was something created
from disassembling a part of Koros’s wing. It was completely like a god of
death’s scythe. The figure of Grace holding it was truly fitting her nickname as
the angel of massacre.
“Do you think, that you can trick my eye with a speed of that level?”
“GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
The scythe of the god of death tore apart Kizuna’s chest. He felt like the life
force inside him was reaped. Even without looking at his status display, he
could feel his Hybrid Count decreasing alarmingly.
P a g e | 190 | Killaruna-X
Aine’s eyes couldn’t see the exchange of offense and defense just now but she
was looking after Kizuna even while being perplexed.
“Aah……I rushed in by accelerating with all that I got but, it got seen through.”
P a g e | 191 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna displayed Eros’s status at his floating window.
“As I thought, my Hybrid Count is reduced until 20% by a single attack of that
scythe.”
Aine looked at the scythe Grace was holding and got confused.
“I thought that I could win if I got close and attacked physically but……looks like
that is also difficult.”
Grace readied her scythe full of composure and smiled. That composure didn’t
come from the fact that she could kill them anytime, but it even looked like she
was having fun working out her imagination of how she would do the killing.
Aine was also staring at her little sister’s figure with a pained look.
“Don’t. Aine’s Hybrid Count is already lower than 10%. If you used it up by some
kind of chance……”
P a g e | 193 | Killaruna-X
{Kizuna, can you hear this?}
“Nee-chan!”
{When you fought Aine, just what did you do at the end?}
“Eh? ……Wha, what is Nee-chan asking, something like that is irrelevant right
now isn’t it!?”
P a g e | 194 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna was trembling at Reiri’s angry yell that looked furious at him even
though he should be the angry one here.
{That time you fought Aine, the phenomenon that happened at the end of it.
Make it happen once more!}
“Phenomenon……?”
Kizuna reflexively stared at Aine’s face with Aine doing the same to him.
{We don’t understand the details because Ataraxia’s function was suspended.
However, from what we can confirm from the little data we could measure, at
that moment, it was only for a really short time but Zeros and Eros’s abilities
were jumping up. At that time, something should have happened between you
and Aine. If you can reproduce that phenomenon……you can win!}
“At the end of the fight with Aine you say……don’t tell me”
Now that she mentioned it, at that time he got the feeling like strength surging
out from the inside of his body. It resembled Heart Hybrid and Climax Hybrid.
But, it was something that was more intense.
P a g e | 195 | Killaruna-X
But, their Hybrid Counts weren’t recovered. Rather, their condition was nearly
at zero fuel. That was why he thought that it might be just his imagination
but……there was some comprehension from hearing Reiri’s story.
“Aine……”
“Hye, yhes!”
“Sorry. This is also a mission. That, you might be reluctant in this kind of
situation but……”
“Err……”
Aine looked down shyly and entangled the fingertips of both her hands. And
then she whispered with a small voice that was like the buzzing of a mosquito.
P a g e | 196 | Killaruna-X
And then her face lifted up and she glanced at him with upturned eyes.
“Nee-sama, Lemuria’s demon king. Is your strategy meeting over? Or else are
you two saying your partings?”
“Yeah……my bad of making you wait. Our briefing session is over now.”
Kizuna embraced Aine’s shoulder close to him. Looking at that, vein throbbed
up at Grace’s temple.
“I told you to not touch Nee-sama with that filthy hand! The one who can touch
Nee-sama and also kill her, is just me!”
“Yes……Kizuna.”
Both of them stared at each other and their faces approached close, it was
unclear which one was starting it.
P a g e | 197 | Killaruna-X
Aine’s heart was pounding hard. The throbbing of her heart was rapidly getting
faster, stronger, it felt like her heartbeat would grow audible. Her glossy lips
slightly opened and her tongue peeked out from inside.
The softness Kizuna felt on his lips felt like it would melt his heart. This was a
battlefield, and there was an opponent with whom they were performing a
mortal combat with in front of them, but he felt like he would forget even those
things.
That sensation made Kizuna’s heart felt very happy and tranquil. Aine inside his
arms felt lovely, he hugged her strongly. It gave Aine the feeling of being
strongly protected, a deep sense of security was born inside Aine’s heart.
Aine opened her lips and she extended her tongue gingerly. It was so that she
could welcome Kizuna’s tongue no matter when. Rather, it was as if she was
waiting in anticipation, wondering if he would come quickly. Kizuna’s tongue
reached into the mouth that had became connected into one with his. His
tongue slowly advanced inside Aine’s mouth to peek at the situation.
P a g e | 198 | Killaruna-X
Their tongues drew back a little in panic, but soon both of their tongues
reached out again. Their tongue tips properly touched each other once more.
This time as if saying that this time they didn’t want to part, their tongue tips
rotated, tasting the texture of each other’s tongue. Aine’s tongue was soft with
sweet taste. The slippery weightless texture even felt like a mollusk. When he
caressed the surface of Aine’s tongue with his tongue, her tongue was startled
and escaped. He chased after it still. He unconsciously became absorbed in the
pursuit of her tongue inside her mouth.
While they were doing that Aine’s face became something enraptured from the
stimulation given to her inside her mouth. The area around her eyes reddened
and her body was trembling from the pleasure of having her mouth’s mucus
membrane caressed.
The tips of Aine’s breasts hardened pointedly from the pleasure granted inside
her mouth. It was to the degree that anyone looking could understand the
shape of the protrusion at the tip of her breast coming to the surface of her
pilot suit.
Kizuna’s tongue touched Aine’s gum. At that moment, Aine’s body jumped in
surprise.
It was an unknown sensation. Having her teeth and gums licked by another
person. She had never even imagined such thing. It was as if Kizuna’s tongue
was attentively making sure of every single teeth at her upper jaw, he was
slowly licking her gum. When that was over, this time his tongue barged
between her lower gum and her lips. And then his tongue traced along Aine’s
P a g e | 199 | Killaruna-X
teeth. Pleasure she never experienced before ran through Aine’s body and her
back convulsed twitchingly. Strength almost left her legs so she hugged at
Kizuna’s body even tighter.
After finally thinking that he had made a round of her gums, this time his
tongue extended at the backside. That sensation where ticklishness and
pleasure jumbled into one made Aine almost lose consciousness. If her eyes
were opened, surely the white of her eyes was going to be exposed.
She understood that something hot was running between her legs even
though that place wasn’t even touched.
Their lips separated for the moment when they were out of breath.
A string of saliva was pulled between the lips of the two. Surely Kizuna was also
feeling excited, his cheeks were red and the light of magic power was coming
to the surface inside his eyes.
Aine also had her thinking ability stolen by the pleasure and she was making a
melting face that was even more than when she was doing Climax Hybrid. Light
of magic power was shining brightly inside her intoxicated eyes, the area
around her eyes was dyed red and she looked up at Kizuna in a daze. Saliva
trickled down from her slovenly opened mouth, her tongue extended out
greedily.
P a g e | 200 | Killaruna-X
Their tongues touched each other even earlier than their lips. Like that, they
licked around at each other’s tongue. It felt like they were going to get addicted
to this soft slippery sensation.
This time they were boldly seeking out each other even stronger.
They greedily indulged in the pleasant feeling they obtained from the inside of
their mouth and tongue. That pleasure was transmitted to their whole body,
melted the inside of their mind and convulsed the tips of their toes.
Their tongues entangled each other inside their mouths. It was as if they were
trying to leave no spot untouched inside their mouths by the tongues. Their
tongues struggled fiercely as if to taste everything until there was nothing left.
What was happening, what were they doing, her head wasn’t trying to
comprehend the scene. She could do nothing but helplessly watching over the
two exchanging lips and tongues in an act of love.
Before long aggravation, sadness, and frustration welled up. Those feeling
became tears that overflowed from Grace’s eyes.
P a g e | 201 | Killaruna-X
But, that wasn’t all.
Mysterious feeling attacked Grace’s body. She too carried out act of love with
Aine at the occasion of Baldein’s ceremony. But, what she was feeling this time
was also different with the thing of that time. Her chest throbbed violently, and
her face flushed. And then below her stomach was tormented by a murky and
painful sensation.
Aine and Kizuna’s bodies began to emit light as if they were in electrification.
Excessive pleasure and euphoria made tears spill out from Aine’s closed eyes.
They sucked strongly at each other’s mouth. The saliva exchanged inside their
mouths passed through their respective throats. Aine’s saliva smelled sweet.
And then when Aine drank in Kizuna’s saliva, her mind became pure white.
P a g e | 202 | Killaruna-X
“Wha-, what! This is!?”
Grace averted her face from the excessive radiance. She really couldn’t possibly
look at it directly. Even Kizuna and Aine who were emitting that radiance were
shocked by this phenomenon.
“This is……”
Both Heart Hybrid and Climax Hybrid created magic power. However in that
case it should be absorbed into the body or vanished into thin air. But right
now pink particles of light still kept covering their bodies.
Kizuna looked at his own hand that was shining pink and asked. If he was
asked, this was a strange sensation as if he stopped in the middle of Climax
Hybrid.
P a g e | 203 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna obeyed what he was told and displayed Eros’s status. His fundamental
output, offensive power, armor’s defensive power, and so on, the current spec
of Eros was displayed there in detail. Looking at the numbers, Kizuna was at a
loss for words.
“!?”
In the time of Climax Hybrid, Eros obtained performance that was equal with
the ability of the partner’s Heart Hybrid Gear. That was why Eros’s spec should
be equal with Zeros right now.
“This is, completely surpassing Zeros’s spec……isn’t it! Twice, no, the number is
thrice you know!? Nee-chan, what is the meaning of this!?”
Aine was also feeling the power rushing through her body. Certainly it was the
sensation that she felt at that time she kissed Kizuna. But, power that was
incomparable with that time, was overflowing from her whole body right now.
Kizuna also yelled with excited feeling from being unable to restrain the
strength rushing through his whole body.
P a g e | 204 | Killaruna-X
“If it’s now, it feels like things that are normally impossible are possible!”
{But, it seems that this Hybrid is not something that replenishes back your
Hybrid Count.}
{From the analysis of the data, it seems that Kischarge Hybrid forcefully raises
your specs by releasing your remaining Hybrid Count all at once. This is
nothing more than a difference of consuming the same amount of fuel little by
little or by all at once. Naturally, it is also overtaxing your body.}
{Kischarge Hybrid is consuming a large amount of Hybrid Count. There are only
ten seconds for Aine and about fifteen seconds more for Kizuna. Finish this in
one go!}
P a g e | 205 | Killaruna-X
First it was a match of how many seconds it would take to deal with Grace. If
Grace escaped, the time limit would arrive to him just with that.
‘――What?’
“Wha……!?”
She swung her scythe in panic. However this time was different with previously.
That motion was perfectly clear in Kizuna’s eyes. Kizuna caught the handle of
the scythe in one hand.
“……-!”
Grace looked at Kizuna’s arm that was gripping the scythe as if she was seeing
something unbelievable.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
P a g e | 206 | Killaruna-X
Grace let go of the scythe and flew behind. And then she spread her wings
widely.
“Harvest!”
“Code Breaker!”
Aine extended the magic circle of Code Breaker from behind Kizuna. Belt-
shaped magic circle avoided Kizuna and cleared off the light feathers of
Harvest.
However at that moment the light wrapping Aine’s body vanished. She had run
out of time for the Kischarge Hybrid. It seemed that right before her Hybrid
Count turned zero it automatically canceled itself.
Receiving Aine’s voice on his back, Kizuna raised his speed even further. Grace
who was putting her guard up took out a scythe from her wing once more and
stood ready. And then at the same time magic power traveled from Grace’s
body towards her wings.
P a g e | 207 | Killaruna-X
She was planning to fire Harvest once more. However, this time Code Breaker
was unusable.
“UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
Before Harvest was fired, he struck at that wing. The fist unleashed with terrific
speed broke off the wing of bones created from blade.
“You……!”
Even so Grace was still following his speed. She aimed her scythe at Kizuna and
swung down.
If he was touched by that, his Hybrid Count would be zero at that point of time!
P a g e | 208 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna’s figure vanished with explosive sound. He broke through the wall of air
and circled around Grace’s body.
Koros began to be left behind by Eros’s speed. Grace’s eyes couldn’t catch up
with Kizuna’s movement. Kizuna’s figure was reflected in her eyes like an after
image.
“GRACE-!!”
P a g e | 209 | Killaruna-X
――Kizuna passed through the wall of time.
“DEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
The wings on her back broke, the generator on her waist, the feathers that
were like tail feather too, the wings at her feet too, everything was struck and
crushed without a single one left behind.
Looking from Grace’s point of view, at the next moment after she lost sight of
Kizuna’s figure, the armors throughout her body were smashed up all at once.
It was such an absurdity.
At the very end, Kizuna swung down a chop at Grace’s neck that had become
defenseless.
“Guu……-!”
It wasn’t that strong but, surge of magic power was injected that made Grace
lose consciousness.
P a g e | 210 | Killaruna-X
Losing her consciousness, strength left Grace’s body where Kizuna then caught
her in his arms. At the same time, magic power particles scattered from
Kizuna’s body.
Eros was barely maintaining its shape, but the limit of his Hybrid Count would
soon come.
“Kizuna!”
Aine supported Kizuna’s body from the side and lent him her strength. It was
just a moment before both of their Heart Hybrid Gears disappeared.
The imperial castle was visible below them. Aine was pointing at the largest
spire among the spires that were surrounding Genesis at the center in a circle.
At the highest floor of that spire was a large balcony that jutted outside.
Kizuna who was carrying Grace’s body landed on that balcony while being
supported by Aine. The moment he laid down Grace on the floor, Eros and
Zeros vanished.
P a g e | 211 | Killaruna-X
“It feels like we are just barely making it.”
Kizuna wiped the sweat on his forehead and leaked out a sigh of relief.
“Kizuna……thank you.”
“I’m not really doing anything you need to thank me for. I too want to try talking
with your little sister after all. Even so, she is a terrific little sister isn’t she? I
don’t know how many times I thought that I’m going to die there.”
“Grace!”
The figure of her big sister was reflected at her empty red eyes.
“Nee……sama?”
P a g e | 212 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna also peered at her face worriedly.
“I didn’t intend to harm your body but……are you feeling pain anywhere?”
Aine took the hand of her little sister and enveloped it with both her hands.
Tears overflowed from Grace’s eyes. Once the tears came out, it kept trickling
out without stopping.
P a g e | 213 | Killaruna-X
“The truth is, together with Nee-sama……intimately, forever……hics, ueeeeeen”
Aine raised Grace’s body and buried her head into her bosom.
“……Nee-sama?”
“I too thought that it was impossible for Atlantis and Lemuria to coexist or
anything. But, I fought Kizuna, talked with him……like that I was able to believe
something. That we, can start over once more.”
“Nee-sama?”
P a g e | 214 | Killaruna-X
“My precious Grace. You are different than me, capable, excellent,
strong……you are the little sister I’m proud of. Something like sisters quarrel is
fine but, I don’t want it to end there. Because, you are, my precious little sister.”
“Nee-sama……I said just now that I hate Nee-sama, you know? Moreover I tried
to kill Nee-sama. Is Nee-sama saying that you will forgive those?”
Aine thought, ‘Just recently I also did something like that against my better
judgment didn’t I.’ She looked up at Kizuna, and there she saw a bashful face
that was a little awkward.
Aine put strength into the hands that were embracing Grace.
“Nee-sama……”
“Even fighting Grace just now, was so that I can ask you to give the ceasefire
order. I wanted the fighting to stop, and combine our power to save the two
worlds. In order to protect the world, where I can live together with you again.”
Grace nuzzled her face against Aine’s chest and then she raised her weeping
face.
P a g e | 215 | Killaruna-X
“I understand……”
“Informing the whole army of Vatlantis. Stop the fighting at once. A ceasefire.
From now on any kind of fighting is forbidden. Let the fleet that came from
Lemuria to do as they please. Interference is unnecessary.”
That broadcast reached all the soldiers in the battlefield. Even the city of Zeltis
and also Ataraxia.
The operators raised cheering voices at the ceasefire declaration of Grace that
was projected on the bridge’s screen. They let out tears and hugged each
other, raising voices of joy.
“Commander, the bombardment from the imperial guard stopped! The magic
weapons are also beginning to return!”
Hearing that report, Reiri sat down on the ship captain seat as if collapsing on
it. She entrusted her body on the chair’s reclined back and made a tired smile.
“……I’m tired.”
P a g e | 216 | Killaruna-X
When Kei said that, the communication window from Kizuna was opened in
front of Reiri that was sinking in her seat.
{Rather than that Nee-chan. Send over the guys of the lab’s research
department quickly. It seems that Kaa-san’s research lab is nearby the Genesis.
Reiri took a long breath and then she jumped to her feet.
Reiri made Ataraxia to advance towards Genesis. There was nothing at all
obstructing their path anymore.
Kizuna stared at the shadow of Ataraxia approaching near from the balcony.
“I see them. They are going to arrive soon. And then they will immediately start
Genesis’s repair.”
After saying that to Grace and Aine, Kizuna looked up at Genesis that was
towering over in front of him.
P a g e | 217 | Killaruna-X
“I’m going ahead, to Kaa-san’s research lab――”
They were late, a sound of something breaking like rumbling ground was
approaching.
The Genesis was like a building that was demolished using dynamite, it was
being destroyed while raising up a lot of dust cloud and thundering sound. In a
glance, it also looked like Genesis’s figure was vanishing into underground.
They couldn’t understand the thing that was obviously happening in front of
their eyes.
Even Aine and also Grace were looking over that occurrence with blank
amazement. Aine murmured with a trembling voice.
P a g e | 218 | Killaruna-X
The scene was as if Genesis was being crushed from above by an unseen
enormous hand, it was crushed into small pieces from its foundation. It was a
shocking sight that didn’t feel real.
P a g e | 219 | Killaruna-X
CHAPTER 4
NEW GOD
Part 1
At that time, all the humans in Zeltis saw something that was hard to believe.
The center of the world that had existed since prehistory. The motherly
existence that gave birth to them. The figure of that Genesis crumbling down.
The people were only looking up in blank amazement at the twilight sky
without the pillar they were familiar with which had vanished. The sky that had
lost the thing that should be there made the people feel the anxiety of losing
their place to depend on.
P a g e | 220 | Killaruna-X
Anxiety called for terror, terror invited chaos. Zeltis was falling into chaotic
mayhem.
That sound didn’t come from below them. The people looked up to the sky.
The sky was shaking. The tremor was like an earthquake that split the ground,
before long that movement carved a crack in the sky. And then the broken sky
became fragments and fell down.
“KYAAAAAAAAAAA!”
Those fragments destroyed the city’s buildings one after another. At the other
side of the chipped sky, a black darkness that was like hell was spreading. The
sky that was full of cracks hiding the darkness of nothingness was coming
down on them. It was only little by little, but the sky was approaching above the
people’s heads with certainty. That was the countdown of death towards this
world.
P a g e | 221 | Killaruna-X
The announcement of breakdown without any place to escape swallowed up
the people into a whirlpool of despair and chaos.
Whether it was the common citizens, the magic knights of the imperial guard,
or even the royalty Aine and Grace, they were all the same.
Grace who was standing with trembling legs was walking as if she was
sleepwalking.
When she arrived until the edge of the balcony, Grace leaned on the handrail
as if clinging on it.
Aine embraced Grace’s shoulders and hugged her onto her body. However
Aine’s body was also trembling.
No matter how powerful combat strength they had, they were powerless in
front of the fate of the world.
Just like a beast that was scared of lightning, they were huddling together
shiveringly.
P a g e | 222 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna tried to contact Ataraxia and activated his floating window.
{You think we cannot see it from here huh! We are heading to the castle right
now. Where are you guys?}
“We are at the balcony of the largest spire. I’m together with Aine and Grace
too.”
P a g e | 223 | Killaruna-X
“I don’t know. But that woman’s research lab is at the base of the pillar……in
this situation, perhaps it had been crushed.”
Nayuta’s research lab was right under the Genesis. Right now it was under the
broken pieces of the pillar which were becoming a mountain. Surely she
couldn’t possible end up safe from that.
“Nayuta……is alive.”
“That voice……Zel?”
From inside the dim room that lost its light, two human shadows dragging their
bodies showed their appearances.
“Zelcyone! Also, isn’t that Valdy! Where were you two until now?”
Aine opened her eyes wide at the two’s appearances which was exposed under
the light from outside.
P a g e | 224 | Killaruna-X
The figures of the two were figures that made one thought they had just went
through a fierce mortal combat. Their magic armors were already gone, they
were in their imperial guard uniform but even that looked ragged. Blood
soaked the torn clothes and they also understood that blood was trickling
down on their exposed skin. Especially Zelcyone, she looked severely wounded,
she was dragging her feet by borrowing Valdy’s shoulder. After they came out
to the balcony, Zelcyone crumbled on her knees as if she had spent her
strength.
“Zel!”
Aine supported her body in panic. Kizuna also lent his hand and laid her body
down on the floor.
Zelcyone spitted out a painful voice from her lips that were wet with blood.
Valdy’s face hung down. She was clenching her fist with trembling shoulders. A
puddle of tears was created below her drop by drop.
P a g e | 225 | Killaruna-X
“As expected, Kaa-san is……shit-! Just what is she scheming this time!?”
Zelcyone was pressing the wound on her stomach and her face warped in
anguish. Even Kizuna being here was inconsequential in this occasion. There
was something that she had to convey, that sense of mission made her
squeezed out her words while enduring the intense pain.
‘――!?’
Furthermore she was outside the balcony. She was floating with the setting sun
behind her.
“You are……?”
Her appearance was like an elementary school student, it was around that age.
Her long jet black hair flapping in the wind was beautiful. Her young stark
naked body that wasn’t wearing anything was only covered by a long white
robe that didn’t suit her body size.
P a g e | 226 | Killaruna-X
Her body was wearing only that. She didn’t even wear a magic armor. She was
floating in the air with just her flesh body.
Even though her appearance was really lovely and beautiful, they felt unknown
terror from her.
It should be their first meeting but, Kizuna felt like he had met that girl
somewhere.
That was not accurate. But it was an impression that was near the truth.
“Eh?”
“You say that this child is Kaa-san……just what does that mean?”
P a g e | 227 | Killaruna-X
Aine and also Grace, even Reiri and Kei that was watching across the
communication window in Ataraxia, were feeling the same like Kizuna.
“Kizuna. For you to forget the face of your mother, there is a limit even for
lacking in filial piety isn’t it?”
Zelcyone yelled with a pained voice towards Kizuna who was going to approach
the girl carelessly.
“Be careful! That thing is not like how Nayuta was once! It’s a monster!”
The girl floating in the air pouted her mouth in a troubled gesture.
“You really are talking rudely aren’t you, Zelcyone-sama? I’m not a monster, I
want to be called as a god.”
P a g e | 228 | Killaruna-X
{God……you say?}
{Certainly, this insolent way of talking is really like mother. But, what kind of
trick that appearance is? Are you doing some kind of interference with our
visual information? Or else an android? There is a limit for dressing yourself
younger than your age.}
“Fufufu, it’s exactly as you see. I’m rejuvenated back to my youth. No, I think
saying that I was reborn is more accurate. Not as a human but as a new living
being.”
Kizuna was also gradually coming to an understanding. Rather than that the
sense of reality was welling up inside him.
He didn’t understand the cause or the method. But, the air this girl was clad in,
her presence. This girl was,
Surely Reiri also felt that. She was getting increasingly irritated from her
exchange of words with the girl.
P a g e | 229 | Killaruna-X
{New living being……you say? And, what is the meaning of that!?}
“It’s about a living being that has evolved even further. The same level of
existence with the being who created the Core of Heart Hybrid Gear and
Genesis……I wonder if it’s easier to understand if I say it like that.”
It was Nayuta’s forte to talk in a roundabout way that the other side couldn’t
understand, covering her story with smokescreen. Kizuna yelled impatiently.
“Say it clearly, I don’t understand at all just what you are saying! Kaa-san……if
you are really Kaa-san, it doesn’t matter what kind of living being you had
become. Rather than that, stop the breakdown of this world!”
“That’s right! You were doing research for that sake all this time weren’t you?
Professor Nayuta!”
P a g e | 230 | Killaruna-X
Grace glared at Nayuta resentfully.
“Stop toying with your justification! Then why was the pillar crumbling! What I
commanded you to do is repairing, not destroying it!”
Nayuta was smiling widely without even looking like she had done anything
bad.
Aine gritted her teeth hard. Enduring her fury, she faced Nayuta and spoke.
“The true identity of Genesis, is a tool that creates worlds. That is to say, it’s the
tool the creator used when creating this world……that pillar is the creator’s
parting gift.”
P a g e | 231 | Killaruna-X
The story of Nayuta immediately sounded like a shady story.
“That’s right. Putting it another way, we can even say that it’s a living thing of
another world who created this world.”
In other words, someone from another world created this world……that was
what she said.
“The Core is also the same. It seems that it was something prepared by the
people who created Genesis in order to imitate the figure like them.”
“Why, are they doing something like that? Those creators or whatever.”
Reiri threw a voice filled with killing intent from the other side of the window.
P a g e | 232 | Killaruna-X
{Just now, you said that you became a god right? In other words that is to say
that you are the same existence as the creator, you became the same existence
like the living being that created this world then?}
“I wanted to understand the technology of the Core and Genesis. And then, as I
continued to further my analysis, I became interested in the very creators
themselves who created all of these. What kind of existences they are. What
should I do so I can approach such transcendental existences.”
Raising her small hand, she extended her index finger erectly.
“And then I thought. Genesis constructed this world, if it can even create life,
shouldn’t it also be able to recreate myself, like that.”
Nayuta spread the fringe of her white robe and twirled in the air.
Nayuta who was all smiles looked innocent, lovely, and ominous.
P a g e | 233 | Killaruna-X
“However, about the existences which are at the level where they can create
both worlds that are this Atlantis and our world that is Lemuria. There are still
many unclear points about them. I was continuing my research in order to
shed light to those existences and comprehend this whole world. And so, this is
nothing more but one of those experiments.”
{Just now, you said that our world was also created by the creator, what is the
basis of that? For argument’s sake, if that’s true, then why there are no Cores or
Genesis on earth?}
“There are also those things in Lemuria you know? Whether it’s Cores and also
monuments that are proportionate with Genesis. It is for this reason that I can
say that our world was also created by the creator.”
‘――What, the?’
P a g e | 234 | Killaruna-X
“Just where do such things exist! It will be a big news if those kind of things
were discovered right? But, I have never heard anything like that!”
“……Me?”
‘――What?’
“It appears that the other Cores fell down to our world when the Another
World Conflict occurred. However, only Eros is different. It was a mysterious
material discovered at an island of the Mediterranean sea approximately
hundred years ago. But, no matter how we see it the industrial goods of
modern time only look like a toy. It was sleeping for a long time inside a certain
collector’s warehouse without anyone even realizing that it was an OOPArt.”
P a g e | 235 | Killaruna-X
‘Such thing…….
It was thought that all their Cores were AU material that fell to earth when
Alternate World Conflict happened. But, Kaa-san is saying that, originally, there
were also Cores on earth?
Having said that, there is also someone who created our world……and that
existence is the same one with the one who created this Atlantis.
It was not just Kizuna, all people present in this place wer thinking the same.
Reiri snapped at her mother even while her gaze was unfocused.
{However……there is nothing like Genesis there, anywhere at all! Isn’t that just
your wild delusion!?}
P a g e | 236 | Killaruna-X
“There is. It just hasn’t been discovered.”
{Something that gigantic, just where can it exist without being discovered until
now huh!}
“That is……my? It seems that this is not the time to speak so leisurely like this
isn’t it?”
The sky was still lowering more. The whole surface of the sky that was dyed by
the setting sun was cracked all over, the cracks was falling down as sky
fragments like glass.
“This world is over already. I’m looking forward how much influence it will
cause to Lemuria that is connected to this world by the Entrances.”
“Until now, in order to save this world……just with how much feeling, you think
we came this far! You!”
Kizuna clenched his fist. His flaming rage circulated energy throughout his
body.
P a g e | 237 | Killaruna-X
“Kaa-san! I’m going to have you cooperate in saving this world! Even by force!”
“Shut it!”
“In your condition where even your Hybrid Count has hit the bottom, can you
take me on?”
The light of magic power created from Nayuta’s body was writing a magic
formula, that formula instantly materialized. It created mechanical parts from
her body that appeared to be constructed one after another by unseen hands.
P a g e | 238 | Killaruna-X
“It was said that god created humans based on his own appearance, but Heart
Hybrid Gear was also something the creator created based on their own
appearance. Let me specially show to all of you, the original.”
The parts created from her back extended to left and right and constructed
large thick arms. And then large leg units like robots were created, fixed on her
legs. Whether the legs or the arms, each of them were something large that
was even bigger than Nayuta’s height.
And then at her back, a board with beautiful luster was unfolding like a spread
fan. It looked like shield and also looked like wings. The fan with beautiful
regularity opened to the left and right which even reached six meters of width.
A headdress in the shape of ornate hairpin was on her head, while a kimono
that was like a furisode with her shoulders greatly exposed was created on her
body. It was an outfit that was like a daughter of a noble who celebrated their
aging festival in the shrine.
The armor was also beautiful, as if in coordination with the dressed up Nayuta.
Elegant line and luster like a lacquer. Graceful ornament and glamorousness.
Rather than calling it weapon for the sake of battle, it even gave the impression
whether it was actually used for etiquette or admiration.
P a g e | 239 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna reflexively murmured looking at that reborn figure Nayuta displayed.
Without any doubt, it was a large type Heart Hybrid Gear. However, it had a
presence that drew a line compared to the likes of Kizuna’s Eros or Aine’s
Zeros. It was not just merely big, the difference in the shaping and material,
and then the high class magic power emitted from her whole body. It made
him feel that it was obviously in a different class with other Heart Hybrid Gear.
And then there was one more point, something that made him feel unease.
That was the sense of unity between Nayuta and the armor, it was as if the two
were completely combined. An existence where it was ambiguous where was
the boundary between flesh and machine. He felt like she had completely
changed into a living thing of another species.
“Now, you said that you want to make me listen to you by force right? I’ll look
after you then. After all playing with children, is also the role of a parent.”
“Ku……”
P a g e | 241 | Killaruna-X
Both Kizuna and also Aine had their Hybrid Count very near zero, they couldn’t
even maintain their Heart Hybrid Gear anymore. It seemed that Grace still had
magic power remaining, but surely she still had damage remaining on her
body.
Kizuna glanced and surmised the state of Zelcyone who collapsed on the floor.
Valdy was sitting down at the center of the room, staring at the floor with
empty eyes. Looking at her, it really didn’t appear that she could fight.
‘――Should I call for Gravel now? However both Gravel and Aldea, even
Gertrude, they must be exhausted right now.’
Kizuna looked up once more at the figure of Nayuta floating in the air. He
hadn’t confirmed her status by any means. But, he understood. He completely
understood. His instinct that had come through several verges of death was
alerting him. It was dangerous. Extremely.
P a g e | 242 | Killaruna-X
“Damn it……is there no way at all.”
“Are you being reserved? Then perhaps I should be the one starting.”
Nayuta extended her mechanical arm to the front. The tip of that hand
disassembled and transformed. The parts changed its construction like a
puzzle and a muzzle of particle cannon appeared at the tip of the hand.
Looking at that, it had been installed with that kind of mechanism since the
beginning……wasn’t how it appeared to him at all. It was as though, it was
created because it was needed for now――that was how it looked like to him.
An unknown terror was surging out inside Kizuna’s chest. The living thing that
was once his mother. He was made to understand that she had transformed
into an authentic monster.
Light of magic power was converging in the muzzle of the particle cannon. If he
was shot in his current state, that would be the end of the road.
――At that time, a golden light of a particle cannon traversed through the
approaching sky of darkness.
P a g e | 243 | Killaruna-X
That light hit Nayuta dead on. The explosion of the fierce light occurred in front
of Kizuna’s eyes.
“UOO!?”
Kizuna stumbled back from the push of the shockwave on his body.
Golden large caliber particle cannon that instantly traversed the sky.
“Kizuna―!”
“Yurishia!!”
A Heart Hybrid Gear that even made him felt nostalgic. With golden hair
swaying in the wind, the girl extolled as the world strongest was flying towards
him.
P a g e | 244 | Killaruna-X
“It’s my return to the frontline that has rea―lly been too long! I’ll have you
become my stress relief here!”
“Blade!”
Swords flying in the sky were coming from behind that Yurishia. The four
swords soared through the sky freely and attacked at Nayuta.
“Himekawa!”
“Professor Nayuta! I won’t let you do any outrageous misdeeds more than this!
Himekawa Hayuru, is here!”
Himekawa drew out Sword from the sheath on her waist and rushed towards
Nayuta.
Nayuta flicked off Blades with the fan wing on her back as shield. However the
Blades kept changing direction in the air no matter how many times and
persistently slashing at Nayuta’s opening. There Himekawa herself also slashed
with Sword.
P a g e | 245 | Killaruna-X
“I see. So Amaterasu is also in full-set here.”
Nayuta burst out magic power particles from the thrusters on her back and
legs, she avoided Himekawa’s slash and ascended above. However, a huge
shadow was standing in the way at where she was evading.
That hugeness surpassed even Nayuta’s Heart Hybrid Gear. It was Sylvia’s
super big Heart Hybrid Gear, [Taros].
Taros swung down its gigantic right arm that was like a hammer. It was a fierce
attack that if one was hit, it would be compressed and smashed to the ground.
When Nayuta raised her flesh arm, the machine arm was also raised up
similarly. And then it blocked Taros’s hammer. Creaking sound thundered from
the clash between fellow metal.
P a g e | 246 | Killaruna-X
“For this much change in result only from changing the installing method, it is
really interesting.”
At that time, large amount of missiles were approaching from behind Sylvia.
Sylvia retreated after measuring the timing. Right after that missiles impacted
Nayuta from all directions. Blast flames occurred in chain explosions and
spread, wrapping Nayuta in a cluster of flame.
“Scarlet! Also――”
The five came to a halt in the air and made a pose after twirling.
It seemed that their idol life had permeated deep in their body. However, they
readied their weapons simultaneously right after introducing themselves. And
then they aimed at Nayuta who showed her appearance from inside the flame
P a g e | 247 | Killaruna-X
and pulled their triggers without hesitation. Bullets rained down on Nayuta like
a storm.
Clementine made dangerous eyes and kept pulling the trigger as if trying to
break it apart. Her braided orange hair was greatly disarrayed and she fired
bullets looking delighted from the bottom of her heart.
Next to her was Sharon who was wearing Heart Hybrid Gear on top of her
goth-loli pilot suit, she was rapidly firing her assault rifle.
“It’s really……has been too long. Fufu-, this might be a little nice.”
Thanks to getting carried away and firing rapidly, they soon ran out of bullets.
They immediately took out new cartridge from the unit on their waist and
exchanged it with the cartridge that had run out of bullets. And then the
cartridge that had become empty was stored back in the waist unit. It had the
mechanism of automatically replenishing the cartridge by creating bullets using
Hybrid Count.
When Nayuta tried to look at the distance, her gaze was naturally zoomed up.
Furthermore every single figure of Masters was transmitted to her as separate
image information. It was a sensation of seeing multiple monitors at the same
time that was impossible for normal eyes.
P a g e | 248 | Killaruna-X
“Masters……come to think of it before all of you became idols, you all were the
Heart Hybrid gear corps of the American army isn’t it?”
Particles of light were emitted from her thrusters and Nayuta’s body lightly
evaded the bullets. It really didn’t seem like a mechanical movement due to
thruster control, she was drifting in the air with natural movement like a water
current. It was the proof that she was perfectly controlling the Heart Hybrid
Gear like a part of her own body.
The cheapskate Leila with her blonde short cut let loose a shot with short-
barreled shotgun in one hand. The bullet that was a compressed light scattered
at the area in front of Leila.
“I’ll give a large service today even if I’ve got to bleed out money! Large sale of
my whole inventory of bullets. Just for now, I’ll resolve myself to be in the red!”
P a g e | 249 | Killaruna-X
At Leila’s side was Henrietta who was readying a long anti material rifle.
When she pulled the trigger, large spark scattered in front of Nayuta. A
shockwave that was as if a small explosive was blasting off attacked the
surroundings.
The explosive power of the anti material rifle didn’t exist only at the point of
time when it impacted, the shockwave it discharged was also not something
halfhearted. Striking shockwave also hit the side face of all the Masters
surrounding Henrietta. Even Scarlet who was opening her missile unit and was
going to launch her next payload also flinched reflexively.
“Buwah! Hey Henrietta! Shot that thing a little farther from us, that’s a bother!”
Henrietta almost cried from the unreasonable treatment. She fired one more
shot even while stirring bad reputation from her comrades, but there was no
effect to Nayuta as if it was just a breeze to her.
“Indeed, its destructive power is high. But, at this level it won’t even become a
test for the Life Saver.”
P a g e | 250 | Killaruna-X
Scarlet opened the missile pod of Ares and aimed at Nayuta who looked
disappointed.
Nayuta was once more enveloped in blast flame. At the same time, large
amount of flame and smoke that were spurted out from the missile unit
wrapped the members of Masters nearby.
“Gehoh! Oi, Scarlet! This is not in the level of a mere bother anymore!”
“Tha, that can’t be helped! This is missile! Because of that in exchange, its
destructive power is great!”
Leila spoke as if spitting out at Scarlet that was desperately making an excuse.
P a g e | 251 | Killaruna-X
Scarlet received a shock and her eyes turned into dots.
“WHAT’S THATTTT! Isn’t it fine even if you don’t say it like that!”
“They are living in a world that is unrelated with words like nervousness or
sense of danger aren’t they……those girls.”
“Seems so……but, they don’t let up their attack even during that idiotic
exchange, should I say it’s as expected from them?”
{Kizuna!}
“Nee-chan! Right now Amaterasu and Masters are fighting Kaa-san. I too want
to recover my Hybrid Count but, is there no way?”
{I’m launching the facility for Heart Hybrid. It’s arranged to impact at the center
of the room you are in. Be careful.}
P a g e | 252 | Killaruna-X
Valdy was still crouching there.
Kizuna snapped to himself and rushed into the room and grasped Valdy’s
hand.
While saying that, Kizuna’s ear caught the sound of something cutting through
the air.
Kizuna carried Valdy’s body in his arms and jumped towards the balcony. At
that moment the wall of the room cracked. A bullet with the diameter of three
meters broke through the wall and flew into the room. Fragments of wall were
scattered all over the carpet and dust rolled up.
When the collapsed Kizuna lifted his face, the cannon shell type capsule was
sliding in barely ahead of his toes. Kizuna released a sigh of relief.
P a g e | 253 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna raised his body and spoke to Valdy. However Valdy was still in a state
where her heart wasn’t here. It was as if her soul was just an empty shell.
Valdy believed Nayuta. She adored her. She yearned at her like a mother. That
was how much shock she received. She was deceived and betrayed.
The man who saved her asked her that but she couldn’t bring herself to
answer. Rather, it would be better for her to even die. That was what Valdy was
thinking.
Valdy lifted her face and looked up at the object that flew into the room. The
hatch at the object’s side opened while she was staring at it with dim eyes, a
black haired woman showed her appearance from the inside.
“Na……Nayuta, sama?”
P a g e | 254 | Killaruna-X
“Don’t group me together with that kind of thing.”
“What did you say!? No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible in this kind of
situation right!?”
Reiri looked up at the battle between Nayuta against Amaterasu and Masters
unfolding above.
“The opponent is that Nayuta. The power of you two that did Kiss Charge
Hybrid should be necessary!”
Aine worriedly peeked at the face of her little sister who was standing next to
her.
P a g e | 255 | Killaruna-X
Grace looked back at Aine’s eyes and smiled as if to reassure her.
“No need to worry, Nee-sama. Rather than that, you have some kind of
important business to do right?”
“Yes. But……”
“That Nayuta. That woman has also done something that I cannot stomach.
Leave this to me.”
“Koros!”
Grace once again equipped the magic armor with gold and silver wings.
Looking at that, Zelcyone too supported her trembling body with her arm and
tried to raise her body.
“However……”
P a g e | 256 | Killaruna-X
Zelcyone gritted her teeth in frustration.
“I will clear your chagrin for you. Just watch from there.”
“Grace-sama……-!”
Kicking the floor, Grace soared up to the sky. After seeing off her figure from
behind, Aine turned back to Kizuna.
She smiled at Kizuna with an invigorated smile, as if she had been released
from a burden.
“……Yeah. We’ve got to give them assistance even for a second faster!”
Kizuna also rushed into the capsule that had flown into the room.
P a g e | 257 | Killaruna-X
After showing in Kizuna and Aine into the capsule, Reiri closed the hatch and
locked it.
Reiri pushed a switch on the wall. Thereupon lighting was turned on until the
inside of the dark room.
A pure white bed. At the other side of it, there was Shikina Kei wearing a micro
bikini.
“Shi-! ……Shikina-sannnn-!?”
She was much older than him but, her body figure was completely childish. She
was short with fragile petite body. Even her breasts were mostly nonexistent.
Such Kei was absurdly wearing a white micro bikini in this kind of place.
‘――Why is Shikina-san who usually was always sending him instruction from
Nayuta Lab here?’
P a g e | 258 | Killaruna-X
“Wh, why……Shikina-san is”
As expected she might also feel embarrassed, the cheek of the expressionless
Kei was slightly tinged red.
{This is the solace deliverance installation number one. It is something like the
prototype edition that was created at the experimental stage of Love Room.
Unfortunately, Love Room was completely destroyed together with Ataraxia.}
The letters Kei were typing into her keyboard were displayed at the floating
window.
Gorgeous chandelier shining inside the slightly dim room. Leather sofa that felt
comfortable to sit on. A metallic cylinder case was fixed on the table put in
front of the sofa, ice and bottle were put inside it.
When he took a glance at Aine’s direction, her red eyes were hiding shyly while
her face was looking down.
P a g e | 259 | Killaruna-X
“No, it will take too much time with just you two.”
Kizuna and Aine leaked out voices “Eh?” while lifting their faces.
“This time as it were is a time trial. We have to carry out Climax Hybrid in the
shortest time. And there, see……we too will cooperate.”
Reiri suddenly took off her shirt and exposed her voluptuous breast that was
enveloped by white underwear. The bra that was knitted with delicate lace was
heroically lifting up Reiri’s large breasts. The drifting off sensuality caused a
sensation that was similar with dizziness in Kizuna.
Reiri yelled as if in panic with her cheeks dyed vermilion. And then as though
she was throwing her own shame to the wind, she pulled down her skirt in one
go. With that Reiri’s style became immoral with only her underwear and high
heels.
P a g e | 260 | Killaruna-X
Reiri who said that also had a red face. Her figure that twisted her body in
embarrassment looked as if she was putting on a coquettish air. And then her
eyes that were moist from shame made him feel that it was not the face of his
sister but the face of a woman.
*doki*, Kizuna’s chest throbbed hard to the degree that such sound was going
to get audible.
“Hey Kizuna……are you getting even more excited than with me?”
“Wha, what are you saying. There is no such thing at all Aine-san.”
Kei was carrying a portable keyboard with both her hands and began to type
with her thumbs.
P a g e | 261 | Killaruna-X
{We explored for a method to make Kizuna and Aine the most excited based
from the track records until now. We are going to boost Kizuna’s excitement by
entertaining you with lingerie.}
“Wait a second! Come on, just why I have to get excited towards Nee-chan and
Shikina-san.”
Reiri glued her body to him from the side and took Kizuna’s arm. And then she
urged him to sit down on the sofa. When she brought her body near, Reiri’s
large chest was pressing on Kizuna’s arm.
‘――Wha-, what a pleasant feeling!? Its size is even more than Aine!’
Kizuna followed what he was told and sat on the sofa. He was sandwiched by
Reiri on the left and Kei on the right.
“Ye, yeah.”
Being caught between his sister in underwear and his sister’s best friend in a
risqué swimsuit, Kizuna didn’t know what he should do. When he looked down,
the valley of Reiri’s large breasts was right before him. It drew a beautiful curve,
P a g e | 262 | Killaruna-X
from the twin hills with full score at both its volume and presence, a sweet
smell was rising up.
“……Thank you.”
He thought whether this was really the time to leisurely act like this, but it was
also a fact that his throat was parched. When he brought his mouth near, the
thirst in his throat was even more pronounced, he drank it all down in one
gulp. Thereupon Kei’s window appeared in front of his eyes.
P a g e | 263 | Killaruna-X
{I’ll say it clearly but, ingredients that are absolutely cannot be sold are
included there.}
He reflexively choked.
“Eh, that’s……”
{It’s something that was specially developed in order to recover stamina and
mind.}
He thought of protesting but his eyes and mind were stolen by the summit’s
pink color rising to the surface from her breast that was visible through the
gaps in Kei’s micro bikini.
However the breast with small undulation was also strangely immoral. In
addition, the fact that he saw Kei’s breast made him excited even reluctantly.
“Eh……yes.”
P a g e | 265 | Killaruna-X
The lingerie appearance of Reiri who was gently smiling was exactly opposite of
Kei. The brutally voluminous breasts made his head go hazy just from looking.
Each time she moved, the breast that was shaking following her every single
movement was also concerning but, the panties put on her plump waist and
the part hidden underneath were really bothering his mind. The fabric on both
places were thin, the color of the thing hidden beneath them was faintly rising
to the surface.
Noticing Kizuna’s gaze, Reiri hid her crotch with her hand.
It was really hard to tear off his eyes once his gaze got captured. When he
somehow looked at the other side, what was waiting for him was the naked
body of Kei who was wearing micro bikini on that childish figure.
It was Kei who usually was really silent doing research where he didn’t feel any
sex appeal at all from her. And then now there was this extraordinary feeling
from the stimulating appearance she was in. This place where he was
sandwiched by elder sisters in lingerie was exactly an alternate universe.
{The aim at this time’s Climax Hybrid is based on the case that was most
effective in the past――}
P a g e | 266 | Killaruna-X
Kei was typing on her keyboard once more. The text was visible until where she
typed [where Kizuna with Reiri], but the cursor was immediately returning and
erased the letters.
{Kizuna need a fresh stimulation. Females like us which you normally don’t
imagine in sexual connotation are showing this kind of appearance will create
an element of surprise. That will awaken the carnal desire and excitement of
Kizuna.}
{Fact, Kizuna’s heartbeat, pulse rate, and the blood flow to your erectile tissue
are rising to the level that has never been seen before.}
Reiri sent a feverish gaze at Kizuna’s crotch and then her throat gulped audibly.
“That time?”
“N, no! Nothing. Anyway, that’s the reason why we too are pitching in to help.”
P a g e | 267 | Killaruna-X
Aine crossed her arms in dissatisfaction.
“You two are saying all that……but, for me this has the opposite effect instead.”
{We are going to be watching here when you two carry out the Climax Hybrid.}
“Wha-……!?”
“So, something like that……no way. There is no way I can do that with people
watching!”
P a g e | 268 | Killaruna-X
“If you cannot then we will force you until you do it. Normally what kind of
thing you do with Kizuna, I have been thinking that I want to try confirming it
for once.”
Aine’s face that became pale was now tinged with red in contrast. Her heart
was beating fast with *doki doki* sound. Her thighs were rubbing at each other
fidgetingly.
{This is a rare chance so I’ll collect detailed data. I’ll record everything of the act
that will be done after this, both the image and the sound.}
“No way……”
Aine’s eyes were moist. She was moved to tears from imagining the treatment
that was awaiting her. Light of magic power was swimming in her eyes mixing
with her tears.
P a g e | 269 | Killaruna-X
Reiri brought her mouth near Kizuna’s ear and whispered as if blowing her
breath to him.
P a g e | 270 | Killaruna-X
Part 2
Even after receiving the all-out attack from Masters, Nayuta didn’t even twitch.
The machine body generated Life Saver. It was laid out all over her body in a
shape that clung tightly on her skin, bouncing back all the bullets. Nayuta’s face
was calm and collected as though she was receiving a gentle breeze.
“If it’s just an attack at the level of Masters, then it will only get bounced back.”
Masters shooting skills was just as expected from them. However although the
bullets impacted, the armor that had luster like a lacquer didn’t allow for even a
dent.
The sky flying swords standing by behind Himekawa soared towards Nayuta.
Nayuta should be skewered instantly. However at the destination where the
Blades were heading, Nayuta’s body was nowhere to be found.
“Eh!?”
P a g e | 271 | Killaruna-X
Blades that were supposed to pursue the enemy no matter where lost sight of
Nayuta. It was a movement that was just that sudden. Himekawa searched for
Nayuta’s figure and looked around her restlessly.
Her spinal cord reflex flew the Blades above her. The Blades soared through
the sky and intercepted the falling down Nayuta. However Nayuta also drew
out a sword and wielded her sword with fast technique that even the eyes
couldn’t follow, hitting back every single one of the Blades.
“No way-!?”
Nayuta was falling down heading towards the shocked Himekawa. Himekawa’s
reaction was just a moment slower from her excessive shock. Nayuta swung
down a merciless attack at that opening.
“Kuuh!”
Himekawa held her Sword above her head to block against it somehow.
However Nayuta’s sword snapped Himekawa’s Sword. And then it split into
Neros’s armor just like that.
“tsu……-!!”
P a g e | 272 | Killaruna-X
Fragments floated in the air from the broken chest armor. Her body numbed
and she was falling down to the ground unable to move. Nayuta swooped
down in order to add further attack.
At that time when she tried to inflict the finishing blow――Nayuta was blown
away right to the side. The impact that was inflicted to her from the side was a
really thick pillar of light. It was a bombing from a large caliber particle cannon.
Nayuta turned her eye to the direction where the bombing came from. Normal
human eyes couldn’t see anything even if they looked at the direction where
the light was coming from. However Nayuta’s eyesight caught the figure of
Yurishia beyond the cracked sky at the far distance.
She caressed the fan that blocked the particle cannon with admiration.
Nayuta pondered a little, and then she extended her mechanical arm. The tip
of the arm was changing its appearance into a particle cannon.
That right arm emitted explosive light. Lines of light were spreading around the
arm, piercing the center, a light of magic power extended to the cracked sky.
Ahead of the light that was extending in a straight line was Yurishia.
P a g e | 273 | Killaruna-X
Yurishia who set her sight at Nayuta and aimed for the next shot hadn’t
imagined that she would be aimed at in return.
“Wai……!”
Without delay she exchanged the Differential Frame from supplying attack
power into propulsive force. The light of Nayuta’s particle cannon grazed
Yurishia’s head. Few centimeters of the tip of her beautiful blonde hair was
evaporated.
Yurishia swooped down with her thrusters fully opened. She hid at the behind
of the first castle wall that was nearest to the castle, then she was circling along
the castle wall. Suddenly the castle wall ahead of her path exploded.
Nayuta’s particle cannon was piercing through the castle wall while chasing
after Yurishia that was behind it. And then Yurishia was finally shot accurately.
“Kuh!”
With her Differential Frame destroyed, Yurishia was going into emergency
landing towards the downtown.
P a g e | 274 | Killaruna-X
“Sylvia won’t let you go further desu!”
Sylvia’s Taros was charging towards Nayuta. With the terrific propulsive force
from the enormous rocket, Taros’s huge body was lightly accelerating. Taros
raised overhead the hammer of its right arm.
“Ignis!”
The main cannons at Taros’s shoulders opened fire. The firepower that
equaled the main cannon of a battleship attacked Nayuta from point-blank
range. Fierce flame blast hid Nayuta’s figure from Sylvia’s view.
“!?”
Sylvia thought that Nayuta was hit directly. However nervousness ran through
Sylvia’s face. She swung down the hammer raised. Following the momentum
P a g e | 275 | Killaruna-X
she rotated and struck her hammer right behind without even confirming it.
The hammer stopped still as if it collided against a wall.
Nayuta blocked the hammer that was as large as her body with her small hand.
With a light snap of her wrist, Taros’s huge body was blown away towards the
ground.
“KYAAAAAAAAA!”
Sylvia fell down on the roof of a five storied building inside the castle. She
crushed through that building and broke through the floors in succession
before Taros collided with the ground. It was as though a deconstruction
project was being done there, the building that was turned into rubble was
falling down on Sylvia.
Nayuta rotated her wrist and confirmed the motion of the arm that threw away
Taros.
P a g e | 276 | Killaruna-X
The bombardment of Masters flew at her once more at that time. Every single
shot contained the force to defeat magic weapons. Nevertheless, they couldn’t
put a single wound on Nayuta.
Henrietta raised a loud voice with her glasses slipping down. It seemed that
she wouldn’t be able to manage her unease and terror if she didn’t yell out.
Their attacks weren’t working at all. This was the first time they were feeling
this powerless.
“Everyone do your best! Even that person should have a limit to her energy!”
Adding on the bullets that were raining down like heavy rain, barrage of
missiles were heading to Nayuta. Nayuta didn’t dodge and received those
missiles. Several explosions occurred and Nayuta’s body wasn’t visible behind
the smoke.
“Yes! ……Eh!?”
P a g e | 277 | Killaruna-X
Scarlet’s hand that was going to make a guts pose stopped.
Nayuta who appeared from inside the flame faced the Masters and elegantly
spread her hand.
“Then, so that it will be fair to all of you Masters, let’s prepare firepower on the
same level.”
The fan that was varnished black and gold spreading on Nayuta’s back. At its
surface the weapons that the Masters were using were reflected.
“Eh……my rifle?”
Each of their favorite firearms was rotating in 360 degree like a 3D model. And
then the images stopped moving when they faced forward, before starting to
float from inside the fan.
P a g e | 278 | Killaruna-X
Scarlet raised a flustered voice.
The image projected in the fan was materializing. Rifle and shotgun, anti
material rifle and missile pod, and so on, something similar with their weapons
were surrounding around Nayuta.
Nayuta thrust forward her small fist and opened her fingers.
“UGYAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
The barrage that they had unleashed until now was returned at them. Masters
became dispersed like baby spiders scattering everywhere where they ran
away in confusion.
P a g e | 279 | Killaruna-X
An angel appeared before Nayuta. An angel of massacre with wings of blade
carrying a scythe. It was Grace who equipped Koros. The scythe to reap away
life which was held in her hands was swung down.
“――!?”
Nayuta’s small fingers caught the scythe between them. The blade of the
scythe was restrained by her index and middle fingers.
“What……the”
She was supposed to be bisected into two with one attack. Even if it was
blocked, Grace thought that it would be blocked by the mechanical arm. Never
would she have thought that a flesh arm, furthermore it were the fingertips,
that would stop her attack. Such thing was unbelievable.
Nayuta smiled with a face that was only young in appearance towards the
grimacing Grace.
P a g e | 280 | Killaruna-X
“Grace-sama’s ability is to steal the opponent’s magic power……the life force.
How about trying to steal it? The life force of this me.”
Grace clenched her teeth. Her body was going to tremble if she didn’t do that.
“Harvest!!”
Grace’s pink hair shined, feathers of light were aimed at Nayuta from Koros’s
wings and they were fired. Nayuta’s body was pierced by the feathers like a
joke.
The feathers piercing Nayuta’s body absorbed the magic power Nayuta had
and brought it back to Koros’s wings.
P a g e | 281 | Killaruna-X
Feathers of light were coming and going bustlingly. However, even after a while
their intensity wasn’t stopping.
Cold sweat was trickling down on the cheek of Grace that was showing a joyful
smile.
Grace’s body was rapidly increasing in radiance. It meant that the magic power
Grace’s body couldn’t stock was overflowing out.
Nayuta faced Grace and showed an innocent smile. That smile made Grace
tremble in her boots.
“Are you full already? You are more of a light eater than what I imagined Grace-
sama.”
“Nayuta……you bastard.”
Grace’s body was blown away even before Nayuta finished talking.
P a g e | 282 | Killaruna-X
“Guah!”
The impact that attacked her body out of nowhere confused Grace.
When she noticed, her body had sunk into the spire of the imperial castle.
“-……!?”
Grace blinked.
Her eyelids closed, and opened, Nayuta who was supposed to be at the
distance was before her eyes.
“……!!”
P a g e | 283 | Killaruna-X
“Guhah!”
And then finally the spire snapped at the middle. Grace’s body was falling down
together with the destroyed spire. Even while receiving raining down rubble
with her body, Grace was withdrawing from the rain of rubble. And then she
landed with a roll on the courtyard of the castle.
Before her, a beautiful Heart Hybrid Gear so big one needed to look up at it
was getting down.
“Even the Koros Vatlantis is proud of is nothing considerable isn’t it……if it’s like
this, then perhaps Kizuna and Aine will be tougher adversaries. As I thought
let’s have those two as my opponents.”
“Nayuta……”
P a g e | 284 | Killaruna-X
Grace stood up with trembling legs. However her field of vision was turning
round and round, she was in a state that it was difficult to immediately stand.
There was no way to win. But, she had to fight. If she was defeated, perhaps it
would be Zeros next that would experience this bloodbath.
“I could reconcile with Nee-sama after great pains……I won’t let you lay your
hand on Nee-sama.”
She pulled out a scythe from her wings after shouting that sentence that was
like a spell.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
With all the might of her body, she slashed towards Nayuta. However the
feedback she felt that was like bouncing back from a rock made her body get
flicked away.
“Gu……gehoh……Na, Nayuta……”
Nayuta blocked the scythe with her mechanical arm. However because the
magic power was stolen, the fingertip was cut down. Looking at that, Grace
smiled widely.
P a g e | 285 | Killaruna-X
“Fufu……even your armor, if its magic power is stolen, will vanish into nothing.”
The moment she said that, Nayuta’s mechanical arm that was cut was
regenerating as if the part was growing again from the base.
“Wha……what, the?”
Nayuta approached the collapsed Grace and grasped the wing of Koros with
the regenerated arm. When she put strength, the bone frame of the wing
bended greatly and it was easily smashed up.
“Is there any other weapon? Don’t tell me, this is not everything there is to it
isn’t it?”
P a g e | 286 | Killaruna-X
“Do, don’t underestimate me……this is, just the beginning!”
“Uu……HAAAA-”
She punched at Nayuta. She couldn’t reach the body and hit at the armor of the
large leg unit. However the protection of the armor was solid, not a single
wound appeared on it. However this was the only thing she could do right now.
Nayuta’s steel arm seized Grace’s neck and lifted her up.
“Gah……!”
P a g e | 287 | Killaruna-X
Grace’s sight was becoming white as if in a haze.
Certainly when she thought that her sister betrayed her, she thought that this
world should just die.
But, she had resolved to save the world together with Nee-sama.
Unable to do anything.
P a g e | 288 | Killaruna-X
Tears overflowed from Grace’s eyes.
‘――Someone,’
‘――Someone, help.’
‘――Who?’
Black hair and black eyes. And then jet black armor.
The armor with black luster was emitting a radiance like something as good as
new.
P a g e | 289 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna grasped the steel arm of Nayuta, he glared at the face of his mother
who had returned to her youth.
Nayuta’s tone was calm as usual. However a hardness mixed into that smile.
Kizuna’s fingers that were grasping Nayuta’s arm were filled with strength.
“!”
Kizuna’s fingers crushed Nayuta’s mechanical arm within their grip. Grace’s
body fell on the ground.
“Gehoh! Gahah……!”
“Grace!”
Aine landed down beside Grace. And then she carried up the body of her little
sister.
P a g e | 290 | Killaruna-X
“You okay? Grace.”
“Nee-sama……you came.”
Grace looked at the face of her big sister and showed a smile of relief. Nayuta
gave a sidelong glance at Grace and Aine’s figures before facing her own son.
“Breaking the arm of this me just with pure arm strength is……it looks like I can
have expectations to this.”
Clenching his fist, Kizuna faced his own mother and took a stance.
“Kaa-san. This is as far as your playing around goes. I’ll have you teach us the
way of repairing Genesis. Because just as you see, the destruction of the world
is approaching.”
P a g e | 291 | Killaruna-X
Facing Kizuna’s serious expression, Nayuta smiled as if in reassurance.
“What?’
“I became a god. Even if this world is destroyed, I’ll create a new world again.”
“Yes. This world is something created by the creator. The current me possess
the same power with those creators. And so, even if this world perished, I will
create a new world again.”
P a g e | 293 | Killaruna-X
“Then let’s play a game. If you can defeat me, I will teach you the way to save
this world. The other magic armors and Heart Hybrid Gears are lacking for the
experiment of my new body. Do your best by all means, please teach me
where is the limit of this body.”
“Shit-! Even at this kind of time, how dare you say that this is a game or an
experiment!”
Kizuna felt a fierce indignation. However right now he could only do as Nayuta
said.
“Fine then. Just as Kaa-san wished for, I’ll defeat you! In exchange, I’ll have you
teach me the way to save this world for sure!”
“Understood.”
“I set it to leave behind all data even in the worst case that I die. Then, work
hard. I have expectations from you, Kizuna.”
Nayuta put the arm that was crushed by Kizuna forward. Thereupon the
destroyed internal structure was repaired, the crushed armor was pushed up.
And then the armor too recovered its shine like a new thing.
P a g e | 294 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna glared at that arm and then to his mother.
At that moment, Kizuna’s figure vanished. Along with a sound that was like
thunder, the ground where Kizuna stood sunk like a crater.
Kizuna chased behind Nayuta and rose to the sky. However the crack running
in the sky that was falling down faster than they imagined was approaching.
Kizuna confirmed the floating window displayed beside his face. It was
displaying the remaining time of Kischarge Hybrid. (TN: I’m changing the name
of the hybrid, got the idea from Kiznaiver’s title.)
‘――Thirty seconds.’
P a g e | 295 | Killaruna-X
Nayuta also soared in the sky with a glide. Kizuna accelerated hot on her heels.
A dogfight in the speed that far surpassed the speed of sound was unfolding.
At the sky above Zeltis, two shadows were crossing each other fighting in super
high speed. However normal humans couldn’t catch sight of their figures. Both
of them were building up a battle in the territory where no one could follow.
Sparks scattered in the air, electricity sparked. And then sound reverberated
behind.
What could be inferred from the clash of the two was only that.
Kizuna’s speed was increasing even further. Just when he was going to catch up
in a little bit more, Nayuta suddenly turned around. And then the sword in her
hand drew a flash.
“UOO!”
The tips of the sword slashed the chest armor of Eros. However Kizuna didn’t
pay it any mind and rushed into Nayuta’s bosom. He further accelerated and
dodged the sword attack by swinging his body left and right.
The accelerated fist of Kizuna struck Nayuta’s armor many times. Slight
warping entered the armor with beautiful luster.
P a g e | 296 | Killaruna-X
“I see, that’s quite a speed isn’t it. But――”
“Wha――!”
Nayuta was several kilometers ahead. And then innumerable particle cannons
were created from the fan on her back, aiming at Kizuna. And then they
emitted light simultaneously where a brutal vortex of light attacked Kizuna.
‘――This is bad!’
“GUWAAAAAAAAAA!”
The Life Saver he immediately laid out was instantly destroyed. Eros’s armor
was smashed while Kizuna’s body was sent flying. Kizuna’s speed fell to zero in
one go and then he was blown away behind in reverse.
P a g e | 297 | Killaruna-X
speed that far surpassed the speed of sound. And then, all her basic specs
were absurdly high.
At that time his blown back body was caught by something soft.
“Kizuna-!”
“Aine? Also……”
P a g e | 298 | Killaruna-X
Grace’s serious gaze was directed at Kizuna. Her red eyes were shining like an
appeal that was filled with prayer. Aine also nodded and stared back at Kizuna
with eyes of the same color as her little sister.
Kizuna flew out with Aine and Grace following right behind him.
“The current me can only oppose Kaa-san with speed. It’s hard to make a lethal
attack with only direct blows! That’s why, you two lend me your strength!”
“Understood!”
Kizuna exchanged some kind of words with the two. And then for some reason
it was only Kizuna who flew away to a different direction with Nayuta. Seeing
off his figure, Aine and Grace nodded at each other.
“Yes. We will show her the strength of the strongest sisters in history!”
P a g e | 299 | Killaruna-X
Kicking the air, both of them accelerated in one go. The speed of the two of
them surpassed the speed of sound. Merciless bombardment from the particle
cannons Nayuta created came attacking at them. Aine and Grace were evading
the bombardment while flying into their firing range in one go.
“TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
Aine’s fist raised a roar. And then Grace’s fist lashed out.
Nayuta’s mechanical arms blocked the fists of Aine and Grace. The arm’s palms
blocked and shook off the fists. The fists of the two that were thrust out with
terrific speed were continued to being dodged using the two arms.
Aine attacked with a combo of fists and kicks. The attacking speed of the two
was gradually increasing. Even though those were fists and kicks, they were
attacks that concealed destructive power like a bomb in every single one.
Fierce explosive sounds and sparks were scattered. Aine and Grace’s fists and
P a g e | 300 | Killaruna-X
legs were drawing trajectories of light and shockwaves were roaring like
thunder between the three.
And then finally the fists of the two surpassed the speed of Nayuta.
“It reached!?”
“Here we go Nee-sama!”
Blows that were like cannon shells hit mercilessly. Blood spurted out from Aine
and Grace’s fists. Even so they didn’t pay it any mind and struck with all their
strength.
But, Nayuta’s eyes shined with that as the signal. Bottomless magic power was
driving through her whole body.
P a g e | 301 | Killaruna-X
“!? The armor!”
“This monster!”
Both Nayuta’s flesh arms were thrust towards Aine and Grace respectively.
Magic circles opened from Nayuta’s palms.
When Aine yelled, vast magic power burst out from inside the magic circle.
“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
Raw magic power that was like a rainstorm toyed around with the two. It
carried fierce pressure and shockwave which beat up Aine and Grace. It broke
into magic power circuits, made the magic power mechanism ran rampant, and
stole the life of the Heart Hybrid Gear and magic armor.
The bodies of the two which were blown away traversed several kilometers
instantly. Their armors were smashed and strength was stolen from their
whole body.
P a g e | 302 | Killaruna-X
Tears overflowed from the eyes of the two.
Grace drew out the sharpest blade from inside her wings. And then its shaped
was changed into a sword, not a scythe. The wing of king, snapped by Nayuta.
She raised it to the sky.
“All the feeling of mine and Vatlantis! For a fitting retribution to that woman.”
P a g e | 303 | Killaruna-X
Similar with her little sister, Aine too raised her weapon to the sky.
Remembering back, when she first met Kizuna, clashing with him, and then
getting back on her feet thanks to that.
The proof that they crossed over the wall by the two of them.
――Leave it to me.
The weapon had disappeared from Aine’s hand when she noticed.
Leaving behind Aine and Grace, Kizuna soared through the sky.
P a g e | 304 | Killaruna-X
After separating with the two, Kizuna was earnestly continuing to accelerate.
But, now that he had done Kischarge Hybrid, he could pass through that wall.
When he fought Grace, he could take a little peek at what lied at the other side
of that wall.
To jump over that wall completely, an approach run was necessary. That time
with Yurishia, it was also impossible to get out the speed of the limit territory in
one go. There was the necessity to gradually increase his speed.
And then,
P a g e | 305 | Killaruna-X
The cause and effect too,
“――!?”
Inside the world where the time stopped, Kizuna finally arrived until the place
where his hand could reach Nayuta.
And then in his hand was what Grace entrusted to him, Koros’s sword.
Nayuta’s armor repelled any kind of attack. And then it would be repaired
when it bore damage.
P a g e | 306 | Killaruna-X
But, that was if it was in the normal stream of time.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
Kizuna swung the sword. The sword of Koros that absorbed magic power. Even
the solid armor of Nayuta could be wounded if its magic power was absorbed.
Right now where even the supply of magic power was stopped, it was just a
mere solid armor. Kizuna swung around the sword in his hand recklessly. He
cut down the armor protecting the child appearance of his mother.
Even if any kind of bombardment was inflicted on her, all would be repelled by
this armor and shield. But, if she lost her armor, then the shield also couldn’t
deploy.
Inside the world where time stopped, Nayuta exposed her defenseless figure.
And then Kizuna raised the weapon entrusted to him from Aine, which he held
in his other hand.
――Pulverizer.
Cutting, agitating, and then pulverizing the time and space of the target.
P a g e | 307 | Killaruna-X
The figure of his mother who had returned to a young child. However that soft
smile was unmistakably his mother’s smile.
When he stared at the figure of his mother who was reborn again, Kizuna was
attacked by a mysterious strong emotion.
Young, child.
Curiosity without end. Purely straightforward greed in order to satisfy it. Right
now this appearance revealed his mother’s simple heart. Kizuna was feeling
like that.
“Sayonara……Kaa-san.”
P a g e | 308 | Killaruna-X
The pink light enveloping Kizuna vanished, time moved.
Nayuta saw the figure of her son aiming the muzzle of Corruption Armament.
That was also the moment when her armor broke apart.
Nayuta’s field of vision was completely filled with the light emitted by
Pulverizer.
Her armor that had broken beforehand couldn’t protect Nayuta’s body. The
shield that was slightly generated was also destroyed, her remaining armor
was smashed apart. The steel arms were being segmented into small pieces.
The fan was torn apart right from its base, scattering in pieces in the air.
Nayuta’s body screamed, her skeletal structure collapsed. Compound fracture
occurred throughout her whole body and her internal organs ruptured in
succession.
“tsuu……ha-!”
Blood burst out from her mouth. It wasn’t tears, but blood that overflowed
from her eyes.
P a g e | 309 | Killaruna-X
And then, the violent light of the utmost limit suddenly vanished just when it
was thought that perhaps it would continue endlessly.
It was as though the slaughter until now was just a lie, gentle wind rustled his
hair to flutter. At the same time floating windows opened one after another
around Kizuna.
But Kizuna didn’t let his eyes move from Nayuta before his eyes.
Reiri asked him vigorously. Kizuna sent the image he was looking at in place of
an answer.
{Uu……!!}
P a g e | 310 | Killaruna-X
Nayuta’s armor was mostly crumbling, the remaining parts were only few. And
then her flesh body could only be described as gruesome. Her whole body was
mangled, her appearance with blood trickling could only be seen as a corpse.
Reiri pulled herself together and stared at the figure of her mother that had
completely changed.
{Kaa-san……}
Reiri reflexively held her breath. Kizuna too was staring with shocked eyes at
the figure of his mother who looked only like a corpse.
P a g e | 311 | Killaruna-X
Exactly as she said, Nayuta’s body was returning to normal. It was as though
time was rewinding back, her ruptured internal organs and bone frame were
becoming as before.
He had already used up his Hybrid Count. There was no method to fight
remaining.
He had used all ways available to him. If she was still not defeated even with all
that, he didn’t know what else he could do. Cold sweat along with despair were
surging out.
{This monster……}
Nayuta suddenly shut her mouth. Her bloodied face made it hard to
understand her expression, but she looked like she was troubled.
P a g e | 312 | Killaruna-X
“Why……even, something like this……”
Her eyes were moving in panic and she murmured something deliriously. Reiri
scowled her face at Nayuta whose condition was changed.
{What’s the matter? It’s really rare for you to show a change in expression or
anything.}
Nayuta directed her eyes that were dyed red from blood to empty air, she
raised her face as if noticing something.
“Aah……so that’s how it is. This body, is a replica after all. Then, if there is only
the genuine data……with that……”
{What?}
Just as she said, Nayuta’s body began to convert into light particles.
P a g e | 313 | Killaruna-X
“Wait! Teach us before that. I defeated mother. The data that you said you will
hand over, where is it?”
Nayuta shook her head with her body that was gradually vanishing.
“I didn’t think that my body will be destructed until this thoroughly. The
research data I planned to leave behind is no more. Later please dig up the
research lab and search there.”
“Wait! There is no time for that! Please, to save this world! Before you
disappear, teach me! How can we fix the Genesis!?”
“……That’s right isn’t it. Kizuna had really worked hard. As a present, I’ll teach
you the way to repair Genesis.”
“Kaa-san!”
Kizuna made a happy expression like a child. Looking at that face, Nayuta too
looked as if she was slightly smiling.
P a g e | 314 | Killaruna-X
But, even while they were talking like that, Nayuta’s body was vanishing into
particles of light. Her legs had completely vanished, there was only the upper
half of her body remaining.
“……I deciphered the inscription carved on Genesis. What was needed for that
was the missing relief of Genesis. It had become the national treasure of
Baldein in their safekeeping. It was a really important piece. What was written
in that part, was the only words with their meaning understood. That is, [The
goddess dances. With nothingness, with death, with emperor. And then to
eternity], that’s the verse.”
“And then at the same time, that one verse is also exactly the method to
maintain the Genesis. That method which Vatlantis has forgotten had
remained in Baldein. That is the ceremony presented before the pillar.
Descending into special intoxicated state, and then by giving each other
pleasure magic power is replenished and the flow of magic power is put in
order. And then, that verse conveys to us the ceremony necessary to maintain
the pillar.”
“How about it Kizuna. Such ceremony, don’t you think that you have heard
about it somewhere?”
P a g e | 315 | Killaruna-X
‘――I have.’
“Exactly. And then the meaning of the song just now. It designated the specific
method that had to be done at the time you carry out the Heart Hybrid.”
“……Method?”
Nayuta’s body below her chest had already gone. Impatience was born inside
Kizuna’s heart.
P a g e | 316 | Killaruna-X
“If it’s Kizuna’s Eros, the story is different.
“In other words, I and Aine, and then Grace, if the three of us performed
Connective Hybrid, Genesis will be repaired……that’s what Kaa-san means?”
“Kaa-san?”
The light particles flew away riding the wind. There, Nayuta’s figure was already
nowhere.
‘――No way.’
For him, she was a very large existence. Surely even for all the people
throughout the world, there was no one else who had influence as big as her.
Yet despite so, now that she vanished it was something that happened really
easily that it felt anticlimactic.
P a g e | 317 | Killaruna-X
‘――Kaa-san.’
“Eh! Really!?”
{But there is a need to hurry. Aine, where is the research lab of Professor
Nayuta located?}
{Roger.}
Ataraxia began to advance and moved forward through the sky of Zeltis. The
greater part of that sky had been torn off and the deep black darkness was
spreading. And then frequent earthquakes fanned the unease of the citizens
even further.
P a g e | 318 | Killaruna-X
Reiri took a deep breath before she crossed her arms strongly.
“Kei. About how much time we have remaining until the world’s break down?”
Kei lifted up her head while typing on her keyboard and touch panel nonstop.
Reiri lifted the corner of her lips and forcibly made a smiling face.
Lemuria and Atlantis. The last mission to save the two worlds was begun.
P a g e | 319 | Killaruna-X
CHAPTER 5
MELANCHOLY OF GODS
Part 1
Ataraxia was standing by at the sky above where the Genesis once stood.
Under it, the remains of Genesis were piled up like a mountain. Most of the
pieces became light and vanished when they crumbled, but there were also
things that remained and didn’t disappear. All of those were collected in one
place. Having said that, it was still quiet an amount of remains, there was about
a small mountain of it.
“Yes. There is no mistake that this is the fragment of Genesis handed down in
my country.”
The queen of Baldein, Landred, nodded after looking at the lithograph. The
verse of [The goddess dances. With nothingness, with death, with the emperor.
And then to eternity.] was carved on it. It was the thing Nayuta and Valdy stole
from Baldein’s palace and deposited in the research lab.
P a g e | 320 | Killaruna-X
“Nice, way to go.”
Reiri nodded and then the students of Ataraxia’s research department carried
that lithograph towards the mountain of rubble.
“My gratitude for your cooperation regardless of the sudden request, your
majesty.”
“What are you saying? If there is a danger to the world, this is only natural.
Besides, we also received a request of cooperation beforehand from Izgard.”
In this world, Baldein was the only one which carried out the ceremony of
Genesis as their tradition. It was only handed down among the royalty, so there
was only one person who was well informed of that, that was the queen of
Baldein, Landred. It could be said that it was a godsend that she also went
along together with Baldein’s dragon force until nearby Zeltis.
“Putting that aside Commander-sama. Why are all of you people hiding your
body with that kind of clothing?”
“Ha?”
P a g e | 321 | Killaruna-X
Landred walked to Reiri’s side with her large breast shaking. Her gesture was
overflowing with grace, a dignified stance that was really like a royalty. That
alone made Reiri greatly perplexed.
After all the clothing of this queen was nearly completely naked. Even what she
called as clothes was ridiculous. Speaking clearly, there was only accessories.
No matter even if the accessory was made from gold and jewel, they did
nothing more than barely hide the tips of her breast and her nether region.
“I understand even if you hide it. The beautiful body under those clothes. If
someone with a high position like you is in that kind of appearance, the moral
will be affected you know?”
“N, no. I wish that your majesty will learn the culture of our world when this
matter is over with.”
After sexily closing one of her eyes, Landred distanced her body.
P a g e | 322 | Killaruna-X
Reiri cleared her throat and checked her watch. Only one more hour remaining
until the estimated time of the world’s breakdown.
Leaving those words behind, Reiri moved to the neighboring tent. Over there
was Kei checking by herself the machinery which would be used for the
ceremony.
Her hand dropped with a clink and she looked up at her best friend with
uneasy eyes.
It was Kei’s real voice that she didn’t let anyone hear other than Reiri.
P a g e | 323 | Killaruna-X
“Hm? Certainly this is a mission that affects the fate of the world. I understand
that you are nervous. However――”
“This.”
She took the file that was put above the desk and handed it over to Reiri.
“What, is this?”
“Just now, the research department brought it over. It was dug out from the
research facility.”
――Project Babel.
“The content was the thing that Professor Nayuta taught us, written in detail.”
P a g e | 324 | Killaruna-X
“Why, is that scary?”
“That’s right. I had never seen that person making a face that surprised.”
She looked delighted, however her smile gave out a tinge of loneliness in it
somewhere. Reiri responded with such smile.
“But, didn’t she think of the possibility of failure? That Professor Nayuta?”
“The condition of Professor Nayuta at that time seemed odd. It’s hard to
imagine that she would give us information without expecting any
compensation. Surely, Professor Nayuta had her own objective.”
“Yes……”
“……Hey, Re-ri.”
P a g e | 325 | Killaruna-X
“What?”
Reiri lost her words. Her heart felt a shaking from unease that noisily disturbed
her.
“……For argument’s sake, even if mother was scheming something, we can only
perform the ceremony now. If we don’t, at that time it’s the end for us.”
“I don’t mind. Rather than that, I’m counting on you for the projection system.”
“Ro―ger.”
P a g e | 326 | Killaruna-X
Reiri exited the tent and stood still staring at the ground.
‘――Babel.’
The name of the gigantic tower that appeared in the Genesis of the Old
Testament. Humans were trying to build a tower that reached the sky to
challenge god. It detailed that the act caused the fury of god.
“Commander-sama?”
The face of the queen of Baldein peeked out from the tent.
“Ah……no.”
“Conforming to the detail your majesty taught to us, the preparation of the
ceremony is finished. There is not even a leeway for rehearsal, so we are
P a g e | 327 | Killaruna-X
performing without any practice beforehand. By any means, I wish for your
majesty to be also present and give us your advice.”
“My pleasure.”
When the queen exited the tent, the commander and the staff officer standing
by in front of the tent followed behind her. Reiri walked ahead to guide the
queen.
Reiri first went in front of the solace delivery installation number one, opened
the door and called to the inside.
Kizuna who was lying down alone on the bed raised his body. He was wearing
Ataraxia’s uniform.
P a g e | 328 | Killaruna-X
“For some reason, this appearance relaxed me.”
“Eh?”
The excessively gorgeous and sexy auntie behind Reiri said something
unsettling.
“Nee-chan……this person?”
“Ha!?”
Kizuna suddenly sat straight and bowed his head many times.
“My, my apologies. That, I’m, no I am――” (TN: Here Kizuna first use ‘ore’ for the
first ‘I’ before switching to ‘watashi’ for the second ‘I’)
P a g e | 329 | Killaruna-X
“I don’t mind if you give your introduction for later. We are fighting against
time……besides, for someone who is going to rape the emperor and the
emperor’s agent of Vatlantis at the same time, what need is there to act that
humble towards me.”
“Eh?”
Kizuna panickedly followed Reiri who turned on her heel. Kizuna thought, this
queen was also a strange person.
When they arrived right in front of the large tent next to it, Landred spoke to
Reiri.
“Yes. We simply gathered the nearby people so, I’m unable to guarantee that
the condition that require good looking people is met……”
Kizuna still wasn’t taught a single thing regarding the specifics of the matter.
And so, when the door of the tent was opened, he was shocked of the world
unfolding inside.
P a g e | 330 | Killaruna-X
“Wha, what is, this?”
Contrary to the external appearance, the inside was furnished with extravagant
design. The floor was covered with carpet and fur with long fur length, the wall
was enclosed with beautiful textile. With this kind of floor, it would surely felt
pleasant to roll around on it. However, there were also several large beds that
were properly prepared. And then at the center there was a Jacuzzi installed,
bubble and steam were rising up.
But he wouldn’t be that shocked if there were only decoration and furniture
inside. Everywhere inside the room was filled with half-naked females. They
were relaxing on the bed, entered the Jacuzzi, or stretched their legs on the
floor, everyone was passing a relaxing time as they pleased.
Furthermore all of them were in the appearances where they were only putting
on thin clothes. Their breasts and asses too could be seen behind the
transparent clothes.
In contrast with the bewildered Kizuna, Landred put her hands together
delightedly.
“My my, isn’t this lovely. Everyone is cute, with this there will be no problem at
all.”
P a g e | 331 | Killaruna-X
Reiri was also calm. Kizuna was alternately looking at the faces of the two
wondering what was going on.
“Thi, this is? Is this not……a Connective Hybrid with Aine and Grace?”
“This is also a part of that ceremony see. The ceremony offered to the pillar,
just as told inside our Baldein royal family. We are reproducing the form of that
ceremony following what is told in the royal family as much as possible like
this.”
“In other words……you are saying that these people too will participate in that
ceremony?”
“Yes……But, they will not do anything direct with you. The role of these girls is
to produce the place and atmosphere for the sake of making the ceremony a
success. By having these girls dancing here, the special space necessary for the
ceremony will be created.”
“Kizuna―!”
A blonde haired girl rushed at him with her large breasts bouncing.
P a g e | 332 | Killaruna-X
“Uwaa! Yu, Yurishia……uoo!?”
Yurishia had teary eyes while leaping at Kizuna. And then she strongly hugged
his body.
Of course Kizuna was also happy. However Yurishia’s appearance was only a
single piece of thin cloth put on her body. Her large breasts were directly
pressed on Kizuna’s body, its shape was distorted and glued tightly on him.
Kizuna wondered whether he should be happy or shy, he replied with a
confused feeling.
“Ye, yeah! I’m glad……that, you are safe……wait, I knew that you were doing idol
things, so I felt relatively relieved though.”
“Waitt, even that was a major disaster just so you know! It wasn’t like I started
doing that because I like――”
“CAPTAINNNNNNNN-!”
P a g e | 333 | Killaruna-X
This time a small body was running at him. And then she rammed herself with
all her might at his stomach.
“Wait, you two! Why are you two doing shameless things! It’s fine to be happy
to be reunited, but please act only after thinking of your own appearance!”
With a force that seemed like she would be growing horns, Himekawa was
standing imposingly there. However even Himekawa herself who was saying
that was only wearing a single transparent thin cloth like the other people here.
Furthermore in Himekawa’s case she was only wearing necklace and bracelet
on her upper body. Her lower body only had a cloth lightly tied on her waist, in
a certain meaning she was the one with the highest exposure rate.
“What’s with that ‘uwaa’! Besides, no matter how you are too slow in coming for
the rescue! During all that time we were made to do embarrassing behavior
like being idols here!”
P a g e | 334 | Killaruna-X
“What’s with you, even though you are the one who got carried away the most.”
“Himekawa-senpai is serious, so she was the one who did her best the most
desu. Sylvia doesn’t think that’s something to be embarrassed about but……is
Sylvia wrong desu?”
“E……no, that……”
“Eh……KYAAAAAAAA!”
Himekawa covered her body in panic with both her arms. However,
Himekawa’s body was already thoroughly burned behind Kizuna’s eyelid.
P a g e | 335 | Killaruna-X
“Uu……I unconsciously, feel happy, that I forgot my own appearance……”
There was a group that waved their hands from inside the Jacuzzi.
When he saw carefully, this room was filled with many people who he knew.
“The people here are only the fellows from Ataraxia huh.”
“Seems like the commander gathered all of them together using any way
available to her……”
A girl sitting on the carpet hugging her legs was Kurumizawa Momo of the
research department. As expected she was wearing the same single piece of
thin cloth, but she was curling on herself so that her body wouldn’t show.
Unsafe words were streaming from her mouth with a dark face.
P a g e | 336 | Killaruna-X
Landred whispered to the ear of Kizuna who was troubled of how to reply.
“No need to worry. She will soon be made to feel happy by this aroma.”
Landred’s hand was holding an incense burner without him realizing it. The
aroma rising up from that incense burner was really sweet, the inside of the
head felt like it was lightly floating the moment one smelled it.
“This aroma is the aid of the ceremony. It clears away the wall of the heart and
causes the hesitation towards the act to be gone.”
Certainly, Kizuna became feeling really pleasant. He got the feeling that surely
if he drank alcohol, perhaps he would also get a feeling like this.
The eyes of Yurishia and Sylvia who were hugging him were also turning empty,
they began to leak out sexy breathing. Himekawa’s cheek was also reddening
as if she was drunk. Her eyes also became moist, she was already in a state
where the sign of Heart Hybrid could appear anytime.
Indeed, he felt like he could understand how this aroma was called as the aid
of the ceremony.
P a g e | 337 | Killaruna-X
“You who are the organizer, please proceed forward to the inner room. Your
partners are waiting there.”
Kizuna proceeded forward into the tent with a little shaky footsteps. When he
looked carefully, there were incense burners here and there inside the room,
wafting off the sweet aroma. The effect of that aroma made the girls at the
nearby bed to start caressing each other’s body.
He got the feeling that those girls were his classmates at the second year first
group if he remembered correctly. While thinking of things like ‘it will be a
disaster when they get their sanity back won’t it’, he kept walking deeper inside.
There was a place that was partitioned by curtains at four sides at the deepest
spot of the tent. He parted the curtain and entered inside.
After he slipped through several layers of curtain, over there were two
extraordinarily beautiful girls, brimming over with elegance awaiting for him in
seiza posture.
“Kizuna……”
“Lemuria’s……demon king.”
P a g e | 338 | Killaruna-X
The two people who reigned at the top of this world. The sisters Aine and
Grace.
When he first met Grace it promptly turned into a battle, so this was the first
time he was seeing her calm appearance. Certainly she really resembled Aine.
“What?”
He heard from Aine that, ‘Grace is not thinking of killing Kizuna anymore’, but
honestly he felt uneasy. He prepared himself that she might assault him the
moment their faces met, but it looked like that ended up only as his
unnecessary fear.
“I too feel reluctant, doing this kind of ceremony but……it has to be done if this
affected the fate of the whole Atlantis. Demon king, you too play your role as
our partner to the best of your ability.”
P a g e | 339 | Killaruna-X
When he took a glance at Aine, she was nodding with a faint smile.
Aine was just wearing accessories created from gold and jewel as clothes
replacement. Grace had the tips of her breast and between her thighs to be
minimally hidden by accessories that were shaped like feathers. Both of them
were in the appearances that were nearly stark naked. Rather they appeared to
look lewder than just being naked.
‘Isn’t it impossible for you telling me to not look’, Kizuna justified himself inside
his heart.
“Nee-sama, what are you acting embarrassed for. You are really this beautiful,
so isn’t it fine to be confident?”
P a g e | 340 | Killaruna-X
What both of them were wearing were the outfits of the emperor and her
agent. The two of them would be embraced by Kizuna as the emperor of
Vatlantis.
Kizuna also sat down nearby the two who were sitting on the floor. And then
he was going to extend his hands at the two of them.
Now that he looked at this situation, the two of them were really beautiful.
Their faces and body structures were different with normal humans. They were
like artistic handicrafts created by the hand of a master by spending a long
time. Their hair and eyelash, eye and lips, from their collarbone’s line until the
swelling of their chest and the protrusion at the summit, the color and luster.
The make of everything throughout their body was delicately bold. Normally
they would be a work of art of national treasure entered into a showcase he
couldn’t possibly approach. From that there was this immoral feeling of trying
to lay his hand on something priceless without permission.
But, even so he wanted to touch. He felt that his feeling was also getting bigger
due to the aroma of the fragrance. Both of them also looked like they were
waiting for him to come with moist eyes.
Just a little bit more and his hand would touch. But, at that time the curtain
opened and a silhouette entered inside.
P a g e | 341 | Killaruna-X
“Please wait still before beginning. There is a procedure in this ceremony after
all.”
It was Baldein’s queen, Landred. Landred who was carrying a bottle in hand sat
down beside Kizuna.
“This is a nectar(drink of gods) created from sacred fruit. After drinking this,
you have to dance.”
“Dance?”
“Yes. It’s about the word that said dance in the inscription. The act that you will
actually do is of the same kind of this Heart Hybrid that you all speak about.”
“You must not. There is a method to drink this conforming to the etiquette.”
P a g e | 342 | Killaruna-X
“Drinking method?”
“Yes……what is it I wonder.”
Not just Kizuna, Aine and Grace also looked like they didn’t understand the
meaning.
“Ainess-sama, please take off your breast accessory and Grace-sama, please
take off the feather on your groin.”
Grace frowned.
“Is that how it is? If that’s the case we should just take them off from the
beginning.”
P a g e | 343 | Killaruna-X
Grace stood up and extended her hand toward the feather hiding her groin. It
seemed that the feather was only stuck there, it was simple to take it off.
The bush underneath it was colored the same like the color of her head’s hair.
The light bush wasn’t that thick and was neatly trimmed, one could clearly
understand that it was thoroughly groomed.
Urged on by Landred, Aine also reluctantly took off her breast accessory. The
golden ornaments looking like cup covering the tips of her breast were taken
away, then pink colored circle that was almost the same size showed its
appearance from below the ornament. The tips were standing straight, telling
them that Aine was also aroused.
“Li……like this?”
Aine pressed her breasts as she was told. The hills of her chest were tightly
joined, creating a valley between them.
P a g e | 344 | Killaruna-X
“Then……”
Landred brought the mouth of the bottle close to the cavity created by the
breast and began to pour the content.
Feeling bewildered of the liquid that was held in the valley of her breast, Aine
threw a questioning gaze at Landred.
“Eeh!?”
P a g e | 345 | Killaruna-X
Indeed this act was also really embarrassing for Kizuna who was in the drinking
side. But, he also understood that this was not the time to say something like
that.
Kizuna sidled up to Aine and brought his face closer to the valley of her
breasts.
“……fuh”
When Kizuna’s mouth touched the sake cup of the valley, Aine raised her voice
slightly.
‘――!? Delicious!’
He didn’t know what the fruit this juice was made of, but it was refreshingly
sweet. Rich aroma tickled his nose even after drinking, making him want to
drink more. Kizuna became absorbed and pressed his face into the valley of
Aine’s breast.
P a g e | 346 | Killaruna-X
Aine’s skin warmed the liquid slightly, making him thought that it drew out the
aroma even better. He drank it all up in a flash and he even licked at the drops
that clung at Aine’s skin.
Aine caressed Kizuna’s head. Kizuna returned to his senses and distanced his
mouth.
“It’s said that this is the drink of gods. It cannot be drunk except at a special
ceremony, a really expensive and valuable item. Then, please have another.”
Saying that Queen Landred went toward Grace who was sitting in seiza.
“Grace-sama, please close your thighs tightly and bend your back a little
backward.”
P a g e | 347 | Killaruna-X
A cavity was created between the tightly closed thighs and the abdomen.
Queen Landred poured in the nectar toward that cavity.
Even while getting teary eyes, Grace put her strength to close her legs so the
nectar wouldn’t spill. Looking at her state, Kizuna felt that she was pitiful for
some reason.
She bended herself backward while her cheeks were dyed red. As if saying that
she wanted Kizuna to quickly drink.
P a g e | 348 | Killaruna-X
“Besides……I also have the debt of my life that was saved by demon king. When
I asked, you had also saved Nee-sama’s life before……that’s why, I’ll specially
allow it if it’s you.”
Grace who recovered the calm of her mind had the feeling of wanting to save
the world. She was also feeling obligation towards Kizuna.
He lowered his body forward and brought his face closer to Grace’s knees.
Inside the transparent liquid, pink colored shadow was slowly swaying. As
though it was beckoning Kizuna’s lips. And then Kizuna tasted the drink of the
gods amassed between Grace’s legs.
“Fuaaah!”
Grace raised a trembling voice. Kizuna tasted the nectar he slurped up inside
his mouth.
The sweetness wasn’t as much as before, but he got the feeling that the
thickness of the taste and aroma was even richer.
P a g e | 349 | Killaruna-X
When he separated his mouth from Grace’s sake cup for the moment, Kizuna
looked up at Queen Landred.
“Indeed……even though the nectar comes from the same bottle, how……?”
“This nectar’s taste will change in accordance with the cup it is poured into. And
so, it will give rise to different taste for each one. Surely the cup of Grace-sama
is giving a high class taste.”
He wanted to drink more even without being told that. Kizuna restrained
Grace’s hips with his hands and then put his mouth on her nether region.
The taste was gradually becoming thicker while he was licking. He finished
drinking and then he also licked up thoroughly at the nectar clinging at Grace’s
thighs and abdomen.
P a g e | 350 | Killaruna-X
Around that time, a change also appeared in Kizuna. His cheeks became hot
and his pulse stronger. His head felt light, it was a really pleasant feeling.
“Now, the preparation is in order with this. From now on, please hold the
ceremony with just the three of you.”
“Yes. But, there is one thing I need to trouble demon king-sama with.”
Saying that, she pushed a box put at the corner in front of Kizuna.
“Shikina-san?”
P a g e | 351 | Killaruna-X
He guessed that this box itself was installed with the function to display a
floating window. The window was streamed with the letters that Kei was
inputting.
Indeed there was a machine that was like a video camera inside. When he tried
to hold it, it was a small type that could be settled on his palm, it was easy to
hold even with one hand.
{This time take the recording of the Connective Hybrid from start to end with
that camera.}
“Whaatt-!?”
Landred crouched down behind Kizuna and put her hands on his shoulders.
Her distance was close. The breast of the queen was so big that it was going to
touch him just by her getting closer, so her breast touched him now even if he
felt reluctant of it. The sensation of the thick soft breast spread on Kizuna’s
back. The queen was whispering into Kizuna’s ear while pushing her breast on
his back.
“Originally there is the necessity to carry out this ceremony in front of the pillar.
The pillar is the god, the god is enjoying himself looking at our dancing figure.
That’s why, there is the need for the pillar to watch the ceremony itself.”
P a g e | 352 | Killaruna-X
“Our location is certainly in front of the pillar but……”
{We had thought of the way to show this ceremony to Genesis. We reached the
conclusion that it’s likely that image information will exert some kind of
influence. Therefore we inspected the research results carried out by Professor
Nayuta and thought of a single way. That way is to record the ceremony using a
camera installed inside a small magic mechanism, and then sending that image
record to the fragments of Genesis.}
“Sending……image?”
{The image system of Vatlantis-made is different with our technology, they use
magic power and transmitted image particles, reproducing the same area at a
distant place. Those particles will be scattered and if we send the image all over
the fragments, then it will be the same like doing the ceremony in front of the
Genesis.}
“Wha……what?”
P a g e | 353 | Killaruna-X
{Speaking in an easier way to understand, by projecting the recorded image to
the rubble of Genesis, the image particles will be absorbed by the rubbles. That
is to say, we will obtain the same effect like doing the ceremony in front of the
Genesis.}
Kizuna tried to push the camera switch. The image being recorded was floating
beside the camera as a floating window.
{Even if you can’t, do it. There is the circumstance of the time limit approaching.
In our estimation, there is only thirty more minutes until the world’s collapse.}
P a g e | 354 | Killaruna-X
The situation outside was reflected in the window. The mountain of rubble
illuminated by dim light was visible. It was like a recording taken by a flying
boat floating in the sky. That mountain of rubble suddenly became bright.
“This is!”
The giant appearances of Aine and Grace were projected on the ground. Kizuna
was shocked and his hand shook, thereafter the image also greatly shook.
There was no doubt, right now the image Kizuna was recording was being
projected. The flying boat was loaded with a projector and a projection
mapping was worked on the remains of Genesis.
It was a giant screen where a side of it could reach three, four hundred meters.
He got cold feet when he thought that the Connective Hybrid act would be
projected in a big way like this.
“Hey, Shikina-san……having it projected bigly like this, won’t everyone see it?”
{Rather, show it to them. We are also relaying it towards the whole people of
Zeltis.}
“WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTT!?”
P a g e | 355 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna got cold feet. Landred spoke gently to Kizuna who was being like that.
“Please calm down. It’s desirable for as many people as possible to hold this
ceremony. The number of people participating is representing the depth and
extent of the faith, and that will become the happiness of the pillar that is the
god. That is to say, holding this in an even larger scale will heighten the
possibility of success.”
Landred’s words were interpreted in Kei’s own way through the text streaming
in the window.
{This ceremony is something carried out by Kizuna, Aine, and Grace, the three
of you. However the magic power for restoring something in the level of
Genesis is impossible to be obtained from just three people. It’s better to do it
in a way that borrows the strength of as many people as possible.}
“Yes but, it’s too extreme to involve the whole people of Zeltis. Is it no good
with just Himekawa and the others outside?”
{At first that was also our intention. However, it’s not enough.}
P a g e | 356 | Killaruna-X
However Landred shook her head.
“No. I don’t know about the people who possess Core, but for the common
people to participate in the ceremony and supply their magic power, the
guidance of the head priest is necessary. That is to say, there is the necessity
for the three of you to display your appearances. The act of you three will grant
influence to other people, inducing them to participate in the ceremony.”
Aine was staring at empty air with a perplexed expression. Honestly saying,
Kizuna was also wanting to hold his head.
{One more thing, the relay is not broadcasted inside Ataraxia. That’s why rest
assured.}
“Then I will leave the rest to you. Please……save the lives of my country and
people.”
P a g e | 357 | Killaruna-X
Leaving those words behind, her figure disappeared behind the curtain.
“……Roger.”
“Even if you tell me that……all the citizens are watching this recording you
know? Don’t ask something unreasonable.”
Aine replied with a pale face. But Kizuna recalled about when they carried out
Climax Hybrid while Reiri and Kei were watching.
‘――Shame and arousal are two sides of the same coin. If I can make use of
this well to get her in the mood…….’
P a g e | 358 | Killaruna-X
“I wonder……is something like self introduction once again okay?”
Grace made a displeasured face, but she opened her mouth reluctantly.
“I am the second princess of the Vatlantis Empire, the acting agent of the
current emperor Grace Synclavia.”
Her cheeks were somewhat red. Her body was also a little sweaty, her body
was fidgeting restlessly.
Kizuna brushed up her pink hair and pressed his hand on her forehead.
“Hyaanh!”
P a g e | 359 | Killaruna-X
“Ye, yes. Just now, since the nectar had been drunk……my body feels hot.”
Kizuna was also the same like that. Most likely the nectar entered inside
Grace’s body from some place other than mouth. There was no doubt that she
was feeling the same effect as Kizuna because of that.
Kizuna put down the camera for the moment and began to take off his
uniform. Aine and Grace’s eyes were stolen by Kizuna’s naked body that was
gradually exposed.
“Ou……this is……”
When Kizuna only had his underwear left, he once more took the camera in his
hand and settled the frame on Grace.
P a g e | 360 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna held the camera with his right hand and caressed Grace’s hair with his
left hand.
Even while saying that in her mouth, she was making a face that was feeling
good like a cat that was brushed gently. Like that he caressed her ear before
his hand crawled on her neck.
“A……haan”
“Hm? Kufufu, you won’t get anything even if you flatter me you know, demon
king.”
When he realized, Aine next to him was glaring with a terrifying look. It seemed
that the big sister would be furious when he praised the little sister too much.
There was the need to unite the feeling of the three people in Connective
Hybrid. He had to pay attention to the balance with Aine. Incidentally――,
P a g e | 361 | Killaruna-X
“Aah……about that, I wonder if you can stop calling me demon king.”
“Something like……Nii-sama.”
He could hear a faint murmur. When he took a look, there was Aine who went
beet red until her ear while she was looking down.
“Se, see, it’s like a male version of Nee-sama……sort of? It’s a way of calling used
for a male older than you or something.”
With a brief glance, Aine sent a gaze to Kizuna’s direction as if stealing a look.
“None.”
P a g e | 362 | Killaruna-X
‘――Aine-san. Scary.’
Aine was showing a greatly delighted smile. In any case if this made Aine have a
good mood, then this is for the best.
Grace took off the feather ornaments clinging on her chest. From underneath
that, cute but also splendid breast for her age appeared. The protrusion on the
top of the breast was in the small side compared to Aine. And then even the
part that was dyed pink had faint color with small area. It was a really lovely
breast.
Grace let her guard down quite much from the nectar’s effect. Later it would be
better to make Aine drink the nectar too he guessed. Stirring up the mood was
the shortcut towards Connective Hybrid.
Kizuna took the bottle of the nectar and poured the content on Grace’s breast.
P a g e | 363 | Killaruna-X
“Hya……wha, what are you doing, Nii-sama.”
Guessing Kizuna’s intention, Aine timidly sidled up to Grace’s side. And then,
she licked up the drops of nectar wetting Grace’s breast with her tongue.
Aine raised her face in surprise. It seemed that Grace was happy that her big
sister was delighted that she smiled bashfully.
Kizuna too extended his tongue at the breast of the other side while directing
his camera to Aine. He put the tip of his tongue to the tip and licked up.
“Ukuh……yaa, that……yaaaann”
Perhaps she felt it too much, Grace’s legs clattered and struggled. However
Kizuna didn’t pay it any attention and continued to lick her breast. He kissed at
the soft bulge and sucked that it left behind marks.
“Fuh……ku……aann, yhaaaah”
P a g e | 364 | Killaruna-X
Aine was gently groping the breast at the opposite side while licking from
Grace’s flank towards her navel as if to search for the dripping down nectar.
The texture of her tongue made the inside of Grace’s chest shudder.
Aine’s cheek also reddened from drinking the nectar, she was making a slightly
dazed expression. But her eyes were shining in lewdness. Her eyes narrowed
and she nodded happily.
“Ahn……Nee-samaa……”
Aine put Grace’s ear between her lips. And then she softly licked with her
tongue.
Grace’s body was trembling intensely. During that time Kizuna was caressing
Grace’s legs thoroughly. She had supple and slim legs. His hand was climbing
P a g e | 365 | Killaruna-X
up from the knee, feeling a lot of chubby and soft parts. And then, his hand
was rising to the base of her leg.
Over there was a secret door of Grace that was tightly closed. Kizuna aimed his
camera at that part. When he thought that this was projected outside, he felt a
feeling of guilt. Furthermore there was no cut, the recording was uncensored.
Grace tried to close her thighs, but Kizuna’s body was already forced its way
through between her legs.
Her weakly slackened legs were spread open, Kizuna touched the pure secret
spot of Grace with his fingers. And then when he opened his fingers, the closed
door opened, at that moment a sweet aroma drifted off gently.
“Aa……”
P a g e | 366 | Killaruna-X
Surely she was feeling how her spot that was usually hidden came into contact
with outside air. Grace’s mouth leaked out sigh. The camera got near and the
part which was opened by fingers was projected. And then, his finger was
inserted into the hidden secret slit.
“Hyaaaauaahan-♥!”
Grace bent backward as if she was struck by lightning. The pleasure that she
received had an intensity that was in a different dimension with everything
until now. However she couldn’t move with her upper body and lower body
restrained by Aine and Kizuna.
Kizuna extended his finger and gently caressed the inside of Grace. The exact
opposite of the resisting Grace, that place was welcoming Kizuna’s finger by
softly wrapping him.
Grace was writhing while dripping tears from the great stimulation. Particles of
light swam inside her eyes and light of magic power was also beginning to
appear from her body.
P a g e | 367 | Killaruna-X
“How cute……Grace.”
She was pinching the pointed end of Grace’s breast with one hand while the
other hand was extending between her own thighs.
“Mm”
Kizuna was stirring the inside with his finger while he pressed tightly at the
small bud a little above the entrance with his thumb.
At that moment, light of magic power and scream burst out from Grace’s body.
“NOOOOOOOO-HAAAAaaNNN♥AAANaAYAAAAA!”
Joyful face with tears trickling down in agony. That expression was properly
caught in the camera.
After recording the moment where the two of them came, Kizuna caressed
Aine’s face.
P a g e | 368 | Killaruna-X
“Ki, Kizuna……?”
However Aine’s thighs were damply wet with a large stain created on the
carpet. Aine was unable to hide how she was comforting herself and her face
reddened with a *puff*.
Kizuna once more took the nectar’s bottle and spilled it on Aine’s body this
time.
Kizuna embraced up Grace who was lying down with her shoulders heaving.
“Grace, this time let’s make your big sister feel good.”
When she gazed at Aine with intoxicated eyes, Grace smiled bewitchingly.
“Just as I wished for. This time I’ll be the one being affectionate to Nee-sama.”
P a g e | 369 | Killaruna-X
“Wa, wait a seco-……aaaahn”
Kizuna sucked on Aine’s left breast, with Grace on her right breast.
“Nee-sama’s breast……it’s really delicious. It’s big, soft, even just touching it
makes me feel happy. Nii-sama is also like that right?”
“Yeah. Completely. Especially look, just licking a little makes the tip grow bigger
immediately, it’s really fun.”
Thinking calmly, doing this talking with Aine’s breast between them was really
an incomprehensible situation. However, it was the fact that Kizuna and Grace
understood each other by discussing Aine’s breast.
In the meanwhile, Aine’s face was bright red from the unbearable shame and
her pursed lips were undulating.
P a g e | 370 | Killaruna-X
“However Nii-sama. The one who can make Nee-sama’s nipple grow the biggest
is me.”
“I really cannot ignore that. I think I’m the one here that can make it stand up
the better.”
“You……you two……”
“Idiot? Are you two idiots!? What kind of match is that! Don’t speak
incomprehensible――ahaaan♥”
“Li, listen when I……ta, hyaaann, do, don’t suck that strongly, yaahn”
Both of them were granting stimulation at Aine’s breasts in rivalry against each
other. Kizuna was sucking the breast while recording the appearance of Grace
sucking her sister’s nipple with his left hand.
P a g e | 371 | Killaruna-X
“Ge, geez-!”
Aine extended her hand to Kizuna’s body to resist and slipped her hand into his
underwear.
“Uu! Aine-“
Aine seized Kizuna’s thing and moved her hand up and down even while her
eyes kept darting around from so much shame. That movement was a gentle
and caring movement.
“Ki, Kizuna?”
P a g e | 372 | Killaruna-X
Aine showed a shocked expression at Kizuna who suddenly yelled. However
Kizuna pulled down his underwear and aimed the camera.
Steam was raising from Aine’s head, she then replied in a fluster.
“Li, like you say!? I, I don’t particularly like this or anything, this is just my
competitiveness-!”
Aine once more gripped Kizuna’s thing even while she felt like crying.
P a g e | 373 | Killaruna-X
“Fufun, it seems that this is my victory.”
In the meanwhile Grace was caressing Aine’s breast lovingly and splendidly
raised up the nipple.
The pointed end that stood straight to the very limit was shining from the
wetness of Grace’s saliva, that appearance was beautiful.
Aine’s body was fully feeling it even while speaking her complaint. Aine’s
arousal was especially instigated by her granting stimulation to Kizuna.
Kizuna also understood that just by caressing Aine, far from the Connective
Hybrid, they wouldn’t even reach Heart Hybrid. However in his situation that
needed to hold the camera, he couldn’t move as freely as he wished. After
thinking for a while, Kizuna caressed the back of Aine with his empty right
hand.
“A……HAAaaN”
Aine spontaneously leaked out sweet voice from having her spine stroked.
Kizuna kept gently brushing her back like that while his hand was gradually
P a g e | 374 | Killaruna-X
progressing below. And then his hand arrived to her bulging ass from her
waist, he then started to rub attentively. And then his hand wedged itself into
the chasm.
Aine stood on her knees to escape. His hand thrust in without delay at that
timing. His hand touched to Aine’s most important place from her bottom. That
place was hot and moist to the degree that steam might come out.
Each time Kizuna moved his finger, wet sound was resounding. That sound
stirred up Aine’s shame whether she wanted it or not.
But in order to divert her attention from the pleasure, Aine put her strength
into the fingers gripping Kizuna’s thing. And then, she sent at Kizuna pleasure
several times more than before as if to strike him.
P a g e | 375 | Killaruna-X
Grace sucked at Aine’s nipple while extending her finger too at Aine’s groin. She
pinched at Aine’s most sensitive spot with her fingers.
“♥!? ……yaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
Aine’s body twitched largely, she was repeatedly convulsing in shudders. Light
of magic power was swimming inside her largely opened eyes, bright light was
overflowing from her whole body.
At that moment, pink light danced in the air from Kizuna’s body. And then at
the same time, the surge of pleasure induced by Aine was released in Aine’s
hand.
Aine lost her strength and collapsed forward. She kept convulsing even after
collapsing and each time her ass was shivering.
“The match is starting from now. In order to save the world, the three of us will
rush to the climax in one go together.”
P a g e | 376 | Killaruna-X
“By the way Nii-sama. Before continuing……there is something in my mind
since a while ago though.”
“What is it?”
“Eh!? Aah, well……certainly this must be something you had never seen before.”
Grace’s face approached curiously and also unhesitantly. Looking at her, Kizuna
hung down his arm and recorded from the side.
“Nn……”
Aine who entered Heart Hybrid’s intoxicated state raised her body. Her cheeks
were blushing, and her eyes that were shining obscenely were staring fixedly at
P a g e | 377 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna’s thing. When she noticed that the thing was dirtied by Kizuna’s own
fluid, she got on all four and crawled towards Kizuna.
When Aine’s face lined up with Grace, her enraptured eyes were shining lewdly.
Her tongue extended and took a lick at Kizuna’s thing.
“Uu”
He was in a state that was already sensitive. Kizuna leaked out his voice
reflexively.
Aine was wholeheartedly licking at the liquid clinging to Kizuna’s thing. And
then she opened her lips and swallowed into her mouth the tip. Kizuna was
recording that situation with the camera while enduring the pleasure.
“Ne, Nee-sama. Is that thing, something that has to be handled like that?”
P a g e | 378 | Killaruna-X
Aine separated her mouth while making a sound *chupon*, then she
surrendered her place to Grace. Grace timidly extended her tongue and
touched at the tip that was swelling largely. And then she slowly licked it
around.
“It’s a mysterious taste. Also, it’s a mysterious feeling, that is making my heart
beat fast, making me calm down.”
Aine held it inside her mouth once more. And then she slurped deliciously.
And then when Aine’s mouth separated, Grace began to suck. Kizuna was
recording from his own point of view, the appearances of the Vatlantis
emperor sisters sucking his thing cordially.
Aine and Grace were sometimes looking up at Kizuna with his thing still inside
their mouth. When that happened they were naturally looking at the camera.
That view was something really inflammatory that made his spine shiver. When
Aine confirmed that Kizuna was satisfied, she once more concentrated on
sucking in relieve.
The images that Kizuna was recording with the camera were all being projected
at the wreckages of Genesis. The wreckages that absorbed the image particles
were beginning to emit faint light. And then that radiance entered into the
P a g e | 379 | Killaruna-X
body of the people watching the ceremony’s recording through their retina,
changing their consciousness into intoxicated state.
Reiri and Kei and also Landred who were looking up at the recording from
nearby, were the very first who received the influence.
Landred showed a bewitching smile and embraced Reiri’s body tightly. The four
large hills changed their shapes elastically while the bodies of the two were
glued tightly as if absorbing each other.
Kei embraced from behind and her small hands were caressing around Reiri’s
bottom.
Suddenly a saccharine desire was boiling up from the depths of Reiri’s body. It
didn’t come only from the skilled fingertips of Landred and Kei.
P a g e | 380 | Killaruna-X
“Ku……so this is, the influence of this ceremony……haaahn! Wa, wait-, aah!”
Himekawa and the others who were inside the same tent as Kizuna and the
others were receiving that in an even stronger influence.
The recording projected inside the tent made Himekawa’s eyes turned moist.
Yurishia was intensely groping Himekawa’s bottom, they looked like they were
embracing each other from the front.
P a g e | 381 | Killaruna-X
Himekawa couldn’t separate her hands from Yurishia’s breasts. The sensation
created from the large breast that was overwhelmingly different with hers was
something really enjoyable that wouldn’t make her tire of it.
At the other side of the two, five, six girl classmates were clinging on Sylvia’s
small body, they were repeatedly caressing Sylvia as the pleased, licking all
over that body so diligently.
Sylvia’s body was writhing from the pleasure produced by that many hands.
The recording floating in the air was reflected in Sylvia’s eyes. The figures of
Kizuna, Aine, and Grace that were projected at the Genesis. That recording
turned into light of lewd pleasure that shined into Sylvia’s immature eyes.
P a g e | 382 | Killaruna-X
The recording that guided the people seeing it into intoxicated state was being
sent into all the image terminals of Zeltis city.
All the people watching that recording had their heart stolen by the lovely and
obscene figures.
Among those people, the captain of imperial guard Leon squad Hyakurath and
captain of Tigris squad Mercuria were also included. Both of them were staring
together at the ceremony recording inside Hyakurath’s room inside the
imperial castle.
When they saw that recording, the inside of their chest grew hot. And then the
feeling that had been hidden until now suddenly overflowed.
“Eh……Mercuria?”
Even while being bewildered, Hyakurath was embraced within Mercuria’s arm
without resistance.
P a g e | 384 | Killaruna-X
“Hyakurath……all this time, I…….about you”
Mercuria plundered Hyakurath’s lips. And then she groped her soft breast.
Hyakurath displayed a slight resistance, but her eyes soon went moist and she
entrusted her body to Mercuria.
Sparkling bright particles of light were created from the body of the two. The
radiance that was like the light of star traversed the night sky and went
absorbed into the wreckages of Genesis.
Similar lights of magic power were rising from all over Zeltis. Lights that came
from acts of love were gradually increasing in number and converged above
Genesis’s wreckages.
Kizuna, Aine, and Grace who were projected to the wreckages stood in the lead
of all the people and rushed over the mountain of pleasure. The people of
Zeltis were tempted and followed behind the three as if being incited. And then
Kizuna sensed that before long they would be nearby the summit of pleasure.
“Hey, Kizuna♥”
“Nii-sama♥”
P a g e | 385 | Killaruna-X
The sisters of Aine and Grace were prostrating on the carpet with their bottoms
lifted up high. The Vatlantis empire sisters were shaking their asses wantonly
towards Kizuna. The voluptuous ass of Aine and the ass of Grace that was on
the small side compared to Aine. Both were smooth without a single stain on
them, beautiful and lovely asses. Then the most important place of the two
that was in its depth. Both of them placed their hands to the behind and
spread open the pink petals wet with dews to show him. And then they looked
back towards Kizuna, staring at him with anguished gazes pleadingly.
“Kizuna……please”
Hot honey brimmed over from there greedily, drawing a silver string that was
dripping down on the carpet. Kizuna put the camera on the carpet, then after
confirming the two were captured in the frame, he reached out his hands to
the hotly wet slits of the two.
His fingers that thrust into the heated honey jar felt like they would get burned.
At that moment the two of them bent their back and raised loud coquettish
voices. Kizuna wriggled his fingers inside the body of the two as if to stir the
molasses inside.
P a g e | 386 | Killaruna-X
The charming voices of the two mixed with each other. Their gasping voices
reverberated like a chorus. Their soft flesh tightened tightly on Kizuna’s fingers.
The ass of the two were shivering in convulsions.
Even if he made the two of them climaxed like this, they wouldn’t reach
Connective Hybrid. Kizuna slowly pulled out his finger. The two of them
directed anxious faces at Kizuna, as if asking why did he stop.
Both of them obeyed him obediently and laid down on the carpet. And then
following Kizuna’s instruction, they entangled their legs and rubbed their
important places at each other.
“Aa……mm”
Both of them felt it just with that, their waist was moving automatically and
rubbed their important place at each other. As if to pacify that movement,
Kizuna caressed the asses of the two with his right hand while his left hand was
holding the camera.
P a g e | 387 | Killaruna-X
“Come……Kizuna.”
“Nii-sama, together……”
Kizuna nodded and pushed his thing against the valley formed from the flower
petals of the two.
“Nn……”
And then Kizuna pushed into the slit created from Aine and Grace’s secret
place.
“NAAAAAAAAAAAAH♥!”
“HAUAAAAAAAAAHN♥!”
Both of their body bent backward and they released loud coquettish voices.
That place of Aine and Grace was hotly damp as if steam would come out.
Honey was brimming over from the place he was thrusting and dripped down.
P a g e | 388 | Killaruna-X
The soft flesh of the two was sandwiching Kizuna’s thing from both sides as if
to hold it inside. As if saying that they wanted to eat Kizuna’s thing, both their
place stuck tightly to him. Kizuna himself was thrusting and pulling out in order
to rub at those petals.
Each time he thrust up, the honey surging out from the bodies of the two
splashed Kizuna, reproducing hotly smoldering honey jar. It was something
Kizuna had never experienced before, a first-rate pleasure. The soft and
obscene texture without any compare made Kizuna felt like his hips were going
to melt.
That sensation felt like he was thrusting inside Aine. And then it was also like
he was inside Grace too at the same time, he felt such illusion.
It was as though he was trampling the inside of the two sisters Aine and Grace
simultaneously, a severe pleasure and euphoria that was far from feeling
realistic. Violent pleasure was going to roast Kizuna’s brain.
Instinct stirred up his body, he nailed his waist, sound of skin and skin bumping
resounded.
P a g e | 389 | Killaruna-X
“Aah, fuah, Kizuna-, i-, it feels, goo-……nhoooooo –“
The two were entrusting their bodies to the pleasure with melting expression.
Right now in this moment, whether it was the fate of the world, the position as
the emperor, everything was completely blown away. What existed were only
the bodies of the three, their communing heart, and then the pleasure they
shared.
Kizuna was at his limit too. Mobilizing all his remaining self-control, he started
up a floating window and confirmed the status of Genesis.
What Kizuna saw there, was the vortex of tremendous light coiling around
Genesis. That scene was just like a typhoon of magic power with the Genesis as
the center. The source of those lights was the light of the rising life force from
all over Zeltis.
P a g e | 390 | Killaruna-X
All the citizens were combining their strength and generated magic power, this
was the result.
And then he nailed his waist with all his might. Aine and Grace, Kizuna himself
reached until the deepest of the deep of the two’s bodies. Spreading out the
deepest area of the two, he broke through the wall of patience and awareness
and reasoning.
At that moment, the three’s bodies were driven through by sublime pleasure.
“FUAAAAAA♥AaaAAAAaaAAAiINuAAAuANNNNN-♥!!”
“NOOahNNNa♥hiIIIINNNNNNNaAAAAAAAAAAAAA♥!!”
P a g e | 391 | Killaruna-X
Electric current ran before their eyes, their sight was dyed white.
Tremendous brightness was rising from Kizuna and the others to the sky. That
brightness became one with the vortex around Genesis and focusing all the
lights of magic power towards Genesis. It was as though the light born from
Kizuna and the others was trying to return to Kizuna and the others inside the
recording.
Reiri who was entangled with Landred and Kei in bared open clothing was
looking up at Genesis which was increasing in brightness.
When she saw her watch, there was still three more minutes before the
predicted collapse.
The wreckages of Genesis were changing shape into a cluster of light. And then
the light deflated and began to vibrate, as though gathering strength.
P a g e | 393 | Killaruna-X
“This is……”
“Re-ri.”
Reiri too was looking up at the path of that light with narrowed eyes.
“Miracle……huh.”
Before long the pillar of light extending to the sky reached the cracked sky. And
then, just like that the whole sky was being pushed up powerfully. That
momentum knew no stop, the tip of the light and the sky too, they were going
P a g e | 394 | Killaruna-X
up with the speed that they couldn’t judge whether they were becoming more
distant or not.
The tip of the light extending to the sky suddenly caused a large explosion. The
ring of light was spreading, painting the cracked sky.
From inside the pitch black darkness, a whole starry sky was being born. That
ring of light traversed the sky, spreading without end everywhere.
The towering pillar of light was gradually turning dark. What appeared from
underneath it, was a pillar with a design drawn on its stone-like material.
“This is Genesis’s……revival.”
Radiance of magic power was coursing through the beautifully shining surface.
That pillar was different with the appearance of Genesis that was standing just
P a g e | 395 | Killaruna-X
before this. That calm appearance had no dirtiness or any crack on it, likely this
was the appearance of Genesis at the time of its establishment, the original
appearance.
P a g e | 396 | Killaruna-X
Part 2
A crescent moon was floating like a ship in the sea of starry sky. A streak of
light was extending through that world of stars. It was like a bridge that was
connected to the heaven, a streak of light extending from the ground.
Light of magic power was shining in the black pillar. With the revival of this
pillar, all the despair until now was overturned. Not only Vatlantis Empire, but
Izgard, Baldein, and all the other small countries, all the countries were in the
mood of festival right now.
This imperial capital of Zeltis was also not excluded, a full-blown festival was
started from the revival of Genesis throughout the night until today. The
citizens all opened their stores, drinking and singing in great commotion.
Contemporary banquets were starting all over the street. Fireworks were rising
to the sky without stopping, acting as the proxy of the happiness of the people.
That uproar showed no sign of settling down even when the night came.
Even in the middle of Zeltis that was in such an uproar, there was a place that
was the most dazzling and boisterous.
P a g e | 397 | Killaruna-X
“Everyone― we are still going here―! You guys still have energy left―!?”
Scarlet’s call raised thundering cheers from the audience seats. The vast arena
and stand were fully packed with people. It was the Colosseum where death
matches was once carried out here. The commemoration event of Genesis’s
revival was carried out here.
“Then, next is your long awaited joint corner! This group who in the battle this
time, made great effort together with us-!”
Fireworks were launched simultaneously, three girls leaped out from under the
stage. They were floating high on the stage, as if dancing in the air. And when
they landed, the three made their poses.
“Amaterasu!”
And then the intro song began and the enthusiasm of the Colosseum reached
its climax.
“Say……even though the battle ended already, why are we still doing this kind
of thing?”
P a g e | 398 | Killaruna-X
When the three glanced at the wing of the stage, Marisu was making a thumbs
up with a broad smile.
“For some reason, Sylvia gets the feeling that we cannot slip out desu.”
“Hah! Rather than that please concentrate at the stage! The first line is coming!”
“SYLVIA-CHA―N!”
Ragrus was holding a light at the very front seat while sending her cheering.
When Sylvia noticed Ragrus, she waved her hand from the stage in response.
Inside the vast arena, there were several stages connected with paths through
the audiences. Amaterasu was singing while running towards the next stage.
When Yurishia noticed the window at the highest level of the stand, she made a
P a g e | 399 | Killaruna-X
gun shape with her fingers and aimed. And then she made a shooting action
before blowing her breath ‘fuh’ as if smoke was coming out from her fingertips.
That window was the VIP room exclusive for Ataraxia. Near the window, Reiri
and Kei were staring at that scene with just the right timing. Kei tilted her head
and asked with her own voice.
As though having been liberated from everything, Reiri drank Zeltis’s alcohol
directly from the bottle and sighed. There were only Kei and Reiri inside this
room. That was why the two of them were relaxing just like when they were in
Nayuta Lab.
“Re-ri, new data was discovered from Professor Nayuta’s research lab.”
Kei flipped through the bundle of documents and read up its content.
P a g e | 400 | Killaruna-X
“To the end, this is just data that Professor Nayuta left behind but……it seemed
that there was once males in this world too. At that time the people here did
the ceremony like the one left behind in Baldein and they didn’t worry for
magic power.”
“This Atlantis had the sense of value that prioritized the strength of magic
power above all. They pursued the strength of magic power too excessively,
the people borrowed the power of Genesis and tried to create life……the result,
the situation developed into one where nothing but females were born……that
is what is written.”
Reiri gulped down the alcohol in her hand and emptied the bottle deliciously.
“I see. Like that finally not even a single man remained……that’s the reason.”
“However, after hundreds, thousands of years passed, the magic power in this
world was gradually decreasing……and then finally, malfunction occurred in
Genesis.”
P a g e | 401 | Killaruna-X
“However, if that’s the case then if this world doesn’t attempt to solve the
fundamental problem, the same thing will happen all over again won’t it?”
“Perhaps there is no need for that worry. By carrying out the ceremony in a
scale as suits the occasion everyday……also, if they don’t manufacture great
amount of battleships and magic weapons for the sake of war…”
“I feel heavy hearted that just when we reach a checkpoint, this time I have to
think about returning to Lemuria……to earth and solve about so many
problems. That is going to be a disaster.”
Kei stared at the throne room for the emperor at the other side from the VIP
room’s window.
Inside that throne room right now, there were only Aine and Kizuna together.
Zelcyone who was always at Aine’s side was hospitalized. Because of that as
one of the causes, Grace was extremely busy. Just now she was at Aine’s side,
but she exited the room in great hurry because of an emergency business.
P a g e | 402 | Killaruna-X
“It’s quiet now that Grace is gone.”
“You’re right.”
However the situation over here hadn’t been communicated to the earth side
yet. So that no problem would occur again, they had to securely raise a plan
and look for a chance for discussion.
“But, the side of earth is also wishing for ceasefire I guess. We will manage
somehow.”
Even the war at the Another Universe Conflict unavoidably occurred because of
the arising phenomenon which surpassed the comprehension of both sides.
P a g e | 403 | Killaruna-X
It also wasn’t something unnatural for Vatlantis Empire to deploy magic
weapons to earth for exploration. It was like mankind sending unmanned
drones to explore another planet. The earth side that attacked first in order to
repel the magic weapon was only something natural because of the fear they
felt from the arrival of the unknown weapons.
But as the result, the fire of war completely spread due to the defensive
reaction of the magic weapons.
“Various things happened but, it will be great if the two worlds can get along
from now on.”
“That’s right. If from now on the two of us, watch over the two worlds……”
Kizuna embraced Aine’s shoulder. Aine leaned her head on Kizuna’s shoulder.
“Hey……”
Aine separated her head and faced Kizuna. And then she looked up at Kizuna
with moist eyes.
P a g e | 404 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna too stared at Aine’s eyes.
“Aine……”
The faces of the two approached each other as if being drawn in.
When the other’s face approached near, their eyes naturally closed.
A sound that was like the rumble of the earth could be heard. That sound
which they thought as heartbeat was gradually becoming louder. Before long it
greatly vibrated their body. And then a thundering heavy bass sound, like a
huge metal rubbing at something.
“――!?”
Both of them opened their eyes and took the stock of the surroundings’
situation.
P a g e | 405 | Killaruna-X
The sound instigated their anxiety whether they wanted to or not. They had
never heard any sound like this.
Kizuna got away from Aine to rush at the window and looked up to the sky.
Aine opened the window and rushed to balcony connected to the throne room.
Kizuna also followed behind in panic. When they came outside, loud stir was
also audible from the Colosseum’s audience seats.
“That’s……an Entrance?”
P a g e | 406 | Killaruna-X
Aine stared at the wall of light floating in the air. It emitted a fierce light, even
more than the Entrance they were familiar with.
“Look Kizuna!”
Inside the Entrance that emitted dazzling light, silhouettes of four people were
floating.
It wasn’t really clear from this far, but the silhouettes looked like they were
wearing big armor.
“Eros!”
“Zeros!”
P a g e | 407 | Killaruna-X
And then Aine too had her body clad in white Heart Hybrid Gear, both of them
flew above the air of the Colosseum, heading towards the Entrance that newly
appeared.
{Kizuna!}
{We still don’t know anything! Don’t let your guard down!}
“Roger!”
When they approached until a distance that was near the Entrance, the figures
of the people appearing from there became clear.
With female appearances, they were wearing mechanical limbs and wings.
P a g e | 408 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna’s heart was greatly ringing.
Kizuna and Aine decreased their speed and hovered in the air. They didn’t
know how to deal with this. But, nothing would start just from looking on.
Kizuna resolved himself and started talking.
At that moment, Kizuna felt like his heart would stop. Even though he was just
being seen by the four.
P a g e | 409 | Killaruna-X
His throat dried, his body was trembling and his voice couldn’t come out. He
was merely being overpowered by the presences before him.
“I see now. Something that must not change was changed, waking up the
power that we didn’t expect.”
That voice felt like it would make him unintentionally fall in love, as if he would
be charmed until his heart. One more voice responded to that voice.
“As far as we are concerned, it has served its purpose. We can only return this
world into nothing once more.”
When he looked at Aine beside him, Aine’s face was pale, she was trembling all
over clatteringly.
P a g e | 410 | Killaruna-X
‘――Aine too is feeling terror instinctually.’
However looking at Aine that was freezing in terror, it conversely made Kizuna
recovered his calm.
“Where are you all coming from? If you are Heart Hybrid Gear owners from a
country somewhere, tell me who you are affiliated with.”
At that moment the four people inside the light noticed for the first time that
Kizuna was a living being they could possibly communicate with.
And then the detail of her appearance became clear for the first time.
That figure was different from Heart Hybrid Gear or magic armor.
It was too beautiful for an armor. It was a work of art that was too sublime.
P a g e | 411 | Killaruna-X
A god that appeared in the form of a human. Clad in the best of the civilization
that mankind had accumulated in hardships, appearing in a sacred castle that
was dressed as an armor, a god.
Voluptuously long legs colored by beautiful ornaments. It was like a pillar that
supported the sanctuary and also a shield. Solid arm that drew a beautiful
curve. It was a spear and a sword to fight the enemy. And then large wings on
the back that ruled over the sky. Rather than saying that the luxurious and
gorgeous armor was equipped by the woman at the center, there was a sense
of unity as if the woman and the armor were one and the same.
And then the woman that was in the center of the huge armor was fitting to be
called as a peerless beauty. She was not a little girl like Nayuta, at the very least
she looked like the same age or older than Kizuna.
She was a beautiful girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes. The clothes the girl
was wearing, and then her armor design, for some reason they resembled the
gods of Greece.
“……What?”
P a g e | 412 | Killaruna-X
‘――What? Deus Ex Machina she said?’
“The experiment of this world ended in failure. It’s unfortunate, but it will be
erased. Are you a living thing born in this world? Thank you for all your hard
work until now.”
“That’s not it, Thanatos. It seem that he is an existence of the other world.”
With a scowl on her blond eyebrows, the Deus Ex Machina in Greek style called
as Thanatos murmured.
“Is that so……so he is the culprit. Be that as it may, to cause resonance with the
Core of another world……this kind of way to use it is outside expectation.”
“……In addition, there is the record of an attempt to create the same existence
like us.”
P a g e | 413 | Killaruna-X
Nayuta’s appearance flashed in Kizuna’s mind.
“A foolish action of one trying to approach the gods……as expected this world is
a failure. It’s better to erase this world and start over once more.”
Their talk wasn’t in sync with each other. And then, the way they progressed
the talk as they pleased made him feel fretfulness and irrationalness.
Kizuna too, he was feeling his body trembling. It was the terror and despair
that a flesh and blood human felt in front of a fierce beast like a lion. The
irrationalness when death was approaching from fire or earthquake even
though they didn’t do anything bad.
“You guys……you are saying that you will erase this world?”
“As the creators, we have the responsibility to take care of the failed work.”
P a g e | 415 | Killaruna-X
Kizuna’s cheek was dripping with cold sweat.
‘Creator.
No way.
“Don’t screw around! There are a lot of people living here, in this world! Who
will let you guys so easily erase this world just for your convenience!”
The limiter of his emotion turned off to drown out the terror that surpassed his
limits.
Kizuna faced the Deus Ex Machina and crossed the sky in one go.
P a g e | 416 | Killaruna-X
Thanatos held out her palm forward to meet him.
‘――!!’
Kizuna’s instinct noticed him of the danger. He flew back from that place as if
being struck.
Just in an instant of difference, bundle of light passed through the place where
Kizuna was at.
“Wha!?”
The light fired from Thanatos’s hand extended in a straight line. There was the
city of Zeltis ahead of it.
‘――STOPPPPPP-!’
Without even time to raise his voice, Thanatos’s radiance impacted the city of
Zeltis. Dazzling light that blinded the eye occurred together with a fierce
explosion. Buildings were broken into pieces instantly and evaporated. Flame
covered the sky and shockwave tore off even the surface, buildings were
collapsing one after another. That destructive power smashed even the solid
giant castle wall. Gale lifted up the rubbles high to the sky, storm was
rampaging wildly.
P a g e | 417 | Killaruna-X
That destructive power was like the explosion of a nuclear missile. The
overwhelming light of violence and slaughter terminated half of Zeltis in one
attack.
“No……way.”
“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-!”
She clenched her fist and charged the Deus Ex Machina with a scream.
“UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!”
“Code Breaker!”
Recovering his chaotic mind somehow, Kizuna invoked Mode Zeros. And then
he flew toward the sky where Deus Ex Machina was. The radius effect of Code
P a g e | 418 | Killaruna-X
Breaker was spreading as if to chase behind him. The whirling magic circle
captured the four Deus Ex Machina in a flash.
Aine’s red eyes and her pink hair shined, raising up the output of Code Breaker.
“Eh……”
“No way!?”
“UOOOOOOOOO!”
Kizuna swoop down and rushed at Thanatos’s range instantly. He hadn’t done
Kischarge Hybrid, but even so his fist struck with a speed that was worth twice
the sound of speed.
P a g e | 419 | Killaruna-X
‘――!?’
Thanatos blocked Kizuna’s fist with one hand. Even though her lightly lifted
hand blocked the attack that Kizuna unleashed with all his might, that hand
didn’t even move for a millimeter. She didn’t even feel anything at all from the
impact of Kizuna’s fist.
“If you don’t do anything unnecessary, this can end even without the world
getting erased.”
‘――Eh?’
“Shi-…..itt!”
He tried to raise his body, but he couldn’t put any strength. And then at the
next instant, Eros broke into pieces.
P a g e | 420 | Killaruna-X
‘――No way!? The Heart Hybrid Gear, just in one attack!?’
Aine tried to free Kizuna’s body from Genesis. She seized his arm and pulled
him out from the caved in wall.
Aine shook her head towards Kizuna’s words while crying. She shouldered
Kizuna’s arm and jumped to the air while holding him.
“NOOOOOOOOOOOOO-!”
Aine raised a screaming voice. Genesis broke into two, falling down towards
Zeltis. The pillar that was collapsing while breaking crushed the imperial castle,
destroying the city street and townscape. Gigantic dust clouds rolled up from
the collapsing snapped pillar.
He couldn’t do anything.
P a g e | 421 | Killaruna-X
He couldn’t reach anything.
Kizuna’s consciousness was sinking into darkness. Inside his mind, he could
hear Thanatos’s voice.
That was the last moment of the two worlds, Atlantis and Lemuria.
P a g e | 422 | Killaruna-X
