After the unexpected turn of events, Leah's eyes turned black and white, and she slowly opened her mouth.

"What the hell do you ...... think you're doing?　You're not one of us?

"Hmm ....... I don't want a rotten man in my group who would lay a hand on a bound girl. ......

　I'm not one of them," he said, sipping from a large glass of wine.

　Then.

What the hell happened?　What the hell happened to you?

　Thor, who had heard the horrible screams, rushed to the scene.

"Hey, there was a small fire. One of the researchers was reduced to ashes.

What?　That ...... a**h*le!　You're a valuable researcher, do you know that?

I'm sorry, forgive me!　I'm sorry, forgive me! I just can't stand the sight of him!

　I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.
　When Thor saw this, he sighed heavily.

I'm not sure what to make of that. I'll report you to the top, okay?

"Yeah, suit yourself.

　In the midst of a rather tense atmosphere between the two men.

"...... Don't thank me.

　Leah muttered to herself.

"Hahahaha!　Of course not!　Who would thank a kidnapper?

　The drunk Zakk belly laughed and sipped his glass again.

I'm not sure what to say.　Aaaaah ...... And that's Leah. Is that sparkle--is Allen's guy coming yet?

　The question was answered by Thor, whose face was contorted in displeasure.

"Hey, come on, Usnoro, ....... I'm sure you're aware of that.　I'm not sure how anyone can find this place.　What?

　I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on.

　This time, Leah interrupted from the side.

"No matter how good your wards are, I'm sure Allen will find them soon enough.

What the hell, you skank! ......!

I'm not a dweeb!　I'm not a skank! Let me tell you something, you rude ......!　You're not short!

You're not short!" "What the ......?　You're not short. ......? You're not educated enough to make fun of people's physical features. ......?

You're the one who called me ugly first. ......

　As Thor and Leah continued their barren argument.

What is the nature of their relationship? What is the relationship between you two?　I don't know.

　Zaku, who was quite intoxicated, asked a question that was a bit more in-depth.

　Leah was shaken by the unexpected question.

I'm not sure I'm ready for that ....... It's not that important!

　Her face reddened and she raised her voice.

"Hahahahaha!　You're young, young!　If I were to give you some advice as a senior in life, I would say that those things shine!　It's definitely going to shine big!　Make sure you catch it so it can't escape!

"Oh, shut up!　That's none of your business.

　While they were talking about this.

"...... Hey, Usnoro. Don't give him too much hope. He'll be sent back home anyway. You'll never see that unknown beast again.

　Thor said, turning his gaze to Leah in pity.

"Hahaha!　If you think about it normally (・・・・), you'll definitely be right!　However, the other party is the "rare glittering"!　That warm, dazzling light attracts many people who are fascinated by it.　I'm sure you're not the only one.

"Hmm, what kind of nonsense is this ......?

　Thor snickered, and the next moment.

　The next moment, a deafening sound of destruction echoed through the laboratory, as if a giant stained glass window had been broken.

It's impossible. ......?　My wards have been broken?

"Hahahahaha!　I knew you'd come!　Allen-Rhoddle - the sparkling gem!



"Allen, ......!

　The three of them reacted in different ways, but Thor moved quickly.

"d*mn ....... What are you so happy about, you stupid bastard?　Get in position!

"Hahaha!　This is going to be fun!

　A frustrated Thor and a belligerent Zak headed upstairs to intercept the uninvited guest.

.

　We entered the lab and made our way through a maze of winding corridors.

(This is probably part of the measures to prevent intruders. ......)

　The corridors are dimly lit, and visibility is extremely poor.
　We had to slow down because we had to watch out for traps and ambushes.

　After that, we followed the road for a while and came to a small room.

　There was a

"Ugh ......, there's an intruder .......

"Well, here we go ........ If we defeat them, we'll ...... be free ......!

Sorry, ........ I'm sorry, but you're going to have to kill me ......!

　I'm not sure what to make of this.
　In their right hands, they were holding strange, unsteady soul moulds, and even though they hadn't fought yet, they were out of breath.

　I'm pretty sure I've dealt with the same kind of people during the ...... summer camp.

(This one seems to have deep roots,.......)

　As soon as I drew my sword and took up my regular eye stance, I noticed a slight change.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

　The soul armor that was forced to appear by the Reishoumaru must have had a more unstable and distorted shape.

　Then.

I'm not sure. However, I never thought that they would be able to manifest such a 'stable soul armor'. ....... This has never been reported to me. ......

　That's when Dr. Leia muttered in annoyance.

"Ugh ...... is ahhhhhh ......!

　One of the swordsmen groaned and punched the wall.

　At that moment - a tremendous roar rang out and a huge hole appeared in the laboratory.

"What?

　The guys from the summer camp also boasted fearsome physical abilities, but the enemy in front of ...... us was far beyond that.

　I'm sure you'll agree.

"Come on, ......!

"Oooohhhh!

"ohhhhhhh!

　They all jumped at us at once.

"Crap. ...... Allen, Rose!　Get back!　I'll take care of this.

　I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not, but I'm sure you've heard of it.

"Don't ...... get in my way!

　"Don't get in my way!" I unleashed a sideways blow.

"But ......?

　The blow, which left the sound behind, easily destroyed their soul armor and cut them all down with the same momentum.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

　(Why is it that my body is moving? !) I'm not filled with magical power like before.
　And yet, my body felt light, as if I had been reborn.

(Allen, when did you get this much strength ......?

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.　But it's much faster than I expected. ......?

　After repelling the first wave of enemies in this way.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. Leah is waiting for us.

　I walked deeper into the lab.
