63 Slashing Blade
"... ah"
At that moment, it was probably Sheila who was most shocked by the sight.
Because we had clearly recognized that it was our fault that Soma's wooden sword was shattered and scattered.
In the first place, Soma's wooden sword was shattered and scattered, not because of that attack.
I couldn't resist the blow that Soma wielded, and I destroyed myself.
And the reason for that is obvious.
Otherwise, Soma would have died anyway.
"... while you say you don't want to pull your leg... no"
"Huh? What do you mean...?
Eina reacts to the whining words on the way down, but Lina notices it before returning anything to it.
"... oh, I see, that's what you mean. Is it true that your brother's wooden sword was not crushed, but crushed?"
"You mean crushed... yourself?
"...... hmm. … but it turns out"
"And there's only one reason why your brother would do that.... That's what happened earlier."
"... n"
Sheila didn't understand it clearly either, but I'm guessing the earlier one was a trump card for me.
Naturally, it can't be just a song or anything.
Probably a conceptual substitute.
In terms of skill, it's like having an extra grade and working out further from it, finally letting it go.
Unless you simply scatter the shock, it's not like it works in any way.
It is a song that scatters the very concept of destruction.
Now I'm convinced that soma says fantasy species and so on.
It will be difficult even for us to prevent it from being aggressive.
Alternatively, if you knew from the beginning, there would be a way to deal with it, but earlier was undoubtedly the time of the special.
There must have been no other way for Soma to save us.
Besides...
"Oh no, alle, live......!?
"It's because you prioritized helping us..."
"... otherwise, I would have been able to defeat you"
At the same time that the soma was blown away, I was crumbling to the ground again.
Soma's blow arrived but it was a late thing, but that's slowly starting to rise now.
Its chest will remain after a thorough slaughter, and although blood is dripping, it will be far from fatal.
It was obvious that Soma had gone so far that it was too shallow, no matter what she thought, and that it was because of the priority given to ourselves.
On the other hand, the blown soma is regaining its posture in the air as well, so there doesn't seem to be a problem.
... except that the only thing left in that hand is the wooden sword pattern, then.
"... Should we withdraw?
"Maybe we should do that once. Well, then, that's just the soma."
Eina's words stopped along the way, probably because she was capturing Arre's movements.
As soon as Sheila saw it, she didn't think it was going to work, so she couldn't help it.
And when he was finished standing up, he opened his mouth wide.
It goes without saying again what that means.
"... eh"
Moment after moment, it was to Soma that Sheila was turning her gaze.
I'm not asking for help.
The other way around.
Soma hasn't landed yet, and he won't be critical in time as it is.
In other words, avoidance is impossible, and the distance is far from this one.
I was just on my way to help, and I can't tell you how I'm gonna make it.
Most of all, it's the same here.
Now that I'm down, I don't think I can get away with it until it's out of range.
What is the optimal solution, in an instant, circles the thought… but soon afterwards, the gaze turned to this side.
Instantly perceive what it means and nod.
Instead, he asked the other two.
"... Eina, Lina, do you think you can do something about it?
"... I'm not sure, but I'll let you try. You can't just be protected."
"It's the same. I can't forgive myself for just pulling your brother's leg."
"... n"
Then Sheila is Sheila too, just focus on protecting herself.
The sound is invisible, but...
"Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
"- Discretionary."
- Knife Art Extraordinary - Protecting Forest Spirit - Spiritual Concentration - Unique Concentration - Living Together - Mind and Eye: Discretionary.
If you know it's coming toward you, it's not hard to slash it.
If I followed my senses and waved my arms, I was only certain that I had slashed something, although I had not responded.
If you look beside you, they are both safe as declared and exhale small.
And look at Soma.
"... he can do anything if he has something in his hand for now? Damn, it's still cod..."
"That's just great, but I want you to weigh in a little bit because it's hard to chase me"
Soma is also in a shaken off position, with zero fragments of paralysis and something falling out of his hand.
The only remaining pattern would be the price for forcefully releasing the move.
Well, it doesn't matter what you think at a time when that's all you can do.
But before I could worry about it, there was something I needed to do.
My mouth didn't shut when I said the song.
Everyone immediately realizes what it means.
"Oh no... can you do it in a row!?
"Exactly, it's tough another time..."
I agreed.
I know I can handle it a little easier next time than once I've got the hang of it, but that's also a story if time opens up.
In series at this interval, it is not very, but it cannot be dealt with.
I wondered if the retreat would be in time, chewing my lips lightly - instantly, my eyes met.
"... eh"
Strange, there was no stray.
I knew that was the most certain thing, and that I was helped.
Or, it's...
"... Huh? Hey Sheila, what...!?
Without a knife and shaken, Aina said something, but she didn't have time to respond.
Keep swinging it down as hard as you can, throw it.
Towards Soma, of course.
"Hmm... that's right"
Soma's words, whispered small, could be heard clearly as to why, and Soma, who grabbed the pattern of the knife that flew in, takes that arm straight to her waist.
Statue of abode.
Although it is not the sheath, it is undoubtedly the same behavior as Sheila...... almost simultaneously, Arre moves on to the next behavior as well.
A song came out of his open mouth.
"Ra-"
"- Discretionary."
Even the whining that interrupted it was the same as Sheila's.
Immediately afterwards, a line runs through the middle of the array's body, like a sword flash that shook off.
Using it as a border, its body began to shift slightly… Eventually, it fell straight to the ground.
Twice the little noise, it sounded... it was the last of it.
"Hmmm... as long as you have a solid weapon, is it that easy? That's my brother."
"... n, that's right"
"I hope that's just fine... it wasn't a little weird right now...?
…… ... where?
"Well... maybe Sheila, who threw the knife toward Soma with the momentum of stabbing him, and Soma, who received it without difficulty?
…… ... Nothing, normal?
"Well, I don't think we would have made it without that speed, and if we knew it was coming in the first place, it wouldn't be hard to take it to that extent, would it?
"... yes. Speaking of which, I'm the only normal person here."
"What are you talking about?
"It's just that there's only one pervert but me."
I didn't know what Aina was talking about, but Sheila had more to say to Soma than that.
Slightly inflate your cheeks, even though you know you can't see them from the other side, toward Soma, who has returned the knife here.
"... it, my moves"
"Yeah? Yeah, they made me imitate it because it seemed just right. Um, it was still a brilliant move"
"... are you praised, subtle"
By and large, that is Sheila's best and most used move.
You think it will be elevated enough to mimic that and even allow for ranged attacks?
I couldn't honestly be happy when they told me they were brilliant.
"By the way, I hope you were able to defeat the one you just did... what are you going to do? Back once?"
"No, it won't be necessary. There were no injuries to the three of us, and I was able to prevent them at a critical point."
"But my brother, I didn't have a sword... or a spare one."
"What? It's falling just right over there. You just have to disrespect it."
That being said, what Soma pointed out was the sword that was being used by the earlier arr, rolling on the ground.
Sure, there's more to it than Sheila's knife if you're bad at it.
"... are you okay?
"There doesn't seem to be a curse or anything, so it will be fine. Worst case scenario, we just have to have it this time."
Well, if soma is good, there's no problem, so I nod.
Then approaching there, Soma, who has truly recovered his sword, makes sure to ascertain his senses and makes a few barebacks.
"Hmm... sounds like you could use it more than I thought. The problem is that there is no sheath... well, if you hold it with your hand, you won't have a problem"
With that said, Sheila and the others headed further into the back, breathing out a small breath into some satisfying soma.
