Fran, thank you for letting Romio and Zelos Reed off your hook this time

Rhyn

You are such a sweet girl, arent you? Even when you were angry, you subconsciously kept Romio out of this

Not really It was just that that kid looks so pitiful

But thanks to you, I was able to put Romio, Zelos Reed, and Zelyse out of this. Besides, thanks to your permission, I was able to borrow Sword-sans help. Without It, the connection would not have been successful

Where did you send them?

Very far away

I see But did we have to let Zelyse go too?

Yes. And it was for you guys sake too

?

Just like usual, it was hard to understand what this spirit, Rhyn, was saying. But I knew Rhyn was not an enemy. So, I did as Rhyn had asked me to do, and stopped myself from trying to kill Zelos Reed.

Romio and the others seemed to have teleported somewhere, but I wonder where they went?

Fran, with this, theres no one around who might get involved in this anymore. So, you can get serious now

Get serious Really?

Yes Weena Rhyn was quite far away from here too. So, its okay now

Nn Okay

Id gotten stronger ever since that day when I lost to Murellia and had lost Urus.h.i.+.

Master, lets do our best

Okay

Nn

I wondered when had Master started acting strangely?

Was it at Barbra, when I defeated a lot of magic stone golems that Zelyse was controlling? Or was it around the time I won the martial arts tournament?

When we first came to the Beastman Country, I didnt think he was like he was now.

But then I noticed that he was getting less and less talkative to me. And he wouldnt speak unless I asked him first.

But that was not all.

No matter what I asked, he was indifferent.

Im just a sword

You think, Fran

If thats Frans choice, Ill follow it

His voice was no longer as gentle and rea.s.suring as it used to be.

He sounded as if he wasnt a person.

I want to hear more of Masters voice. But Im afraid to talk to him myself. Because hed always answer Im Frans sword, so Ill follow Frans decision with that cold voice again.

No matter how hard I pushed myself, Master would never praise me anymore. Even if he did, he would just say Well done in that cold voice again.

In town, a drunk man made fun of me and I got a little violent and was involved in a fight. But at that time, Master warned me Youve gone too far, Fran.

It was only a little, but I think it was Masters old voice.

If I became a bad kid, would Master let me hear his old voice again like before? I thought so, but that was only at the beginning. Soon, he stopped saying anything.

That was when I saw him again.

Zelos Reed, the one who had killed Kiara.

I had never forgotten about him, but Id never chased after him. After all, Kiara had told me not to seek revenge.

But then he showed up right in front of me. And with a child with him.

Both Zelos Reed and Romio seemed to be very calm. They seemed to have been through a lot, and even now they were being held captive.

But they looked so happy.

Did I ever have a smile like that on my face?

Somehow, looking at them made me frustrated.

Hey, Master. Why am I feeling something like this?

I dont understand. Was there anything that caused you to be stressed?

I dont know

You have no idea why youre stressed?

I dont know! I dont know why!

Then, I dont know why either

Somehow, I just didnt care anymore. Anyway, Id kill Zelos Reed. But as I was thinking that, Rhyn stopped me.

Moreover, Rhyn asked me to lend her our help because she really needed Masters Dimensional Magic to save Romio and Zelos Reed. Rhyn had saved my life once before. So, I couldnt refuse her request.

But why were we helping Zelos Reed?

I couldnt keep my head organized and it was all messed up. I even had a hard time controlling my frustration.

Lets vent out all my frustration by attacking the Great Magic Beast, I thought.

And she told me I could go serious this time.

The last time I got serious was when I was on the Plains of the Demon Wolf, I broke a barrier that the G.o.ddess had made, and she got mad at me. But this was a lake many times wider than the Plains of the Demon Wolf. Even if we went all out this time, nothing would get caught in our range.

Lets do this!

Release the pieces of the Evil G.o.ds power

Destroy everything! Destroy

Shut up, all you have to do is give me your power

Following my words, a large amount of Evil Spirits then overflowed from the piece of the Evil G.o.d sealed inside Master to me. Before, I couldnt control this Evil Spirit well and went out of control, but now I could control it perfectly.

I didnt want to admit it, but it was the same power that Murellia had used. I hated it so much when I got this power that it made me want to throw up, but now Im going to use it.

Soul of the Night Sky activated

This was the unique skill of the Dark Knight Wolf. It was a power we inherited from the magic stone that Urus.h.i.+, who died protecting me from Murellias attack, entrusted to us at the end of his life. It was a skill that could enhance ones status only during the night like now.

Master, activate all the other strengthening skills

Okay

There used to be an onee-san with a kind voice called Announcer-san who used to give me a lot of advice, but she had disappeared, saying something about the Evil control.

I could feel my body screaming as I applied too much strengthening on top of each other.

I keep thinking that I might die. I never thought about it before Master became like what he was now, but I get a little scared about the thought of it now.

But I also thought that I didnt mind if I die. So, Id just do what I always did.

Master, dont mind using recovery magic, just put everything into strengthening

Okay

I continue to talk while holding the pain in my body.

Can I use Master in his Potential Release state?

Im a sword. I have no right to judge. Ill follow Frans decision

Masters thought, I want to hear it

If you use it, you will be able to defeat it for sure. However, the backlash will affect your future battles. In some cases, your life may be in danger. If you dont use it, you may or may not be able to defeat it. However, you can maintain your fighting ability

Not that, thats not what I meant. Let me hear which one you think is better, Master

I dont have the right to answer that question

Just as I was about to get disappointed with Masters usual answer.

Oi! The idiot over there! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Why are you making Fran cry!? Ill never forgive you!

For a moment, I thought I heard Masters old gentle voice.
