The royal capital is in turmoil.

　Among the people fleeing the academy were Jenna and Finley.

'Why are you coming to the academy? This is a refuge. What do you want?

　There were other important facilities, but Jenna had no idea what the enemy was thinking.

　Jenna grabbed Finley's hand and moved through the stream of people.

　Finley looked back and looked up at the sky above them.

'Brother Nix's ship, it's okay, right?　That's the new model Brother Rion made, so it won't sink as easily, right?　Hey, sis!

　They are firing at the monster in the distance, but to no avail.

　The airship that approached the monster was destroyed, falling and burning the royal capital.

　Then several fireballs struck the airship with Nix on board, causing it to explode.

'Sis!'

Shut up!　Right now, all you can think about is escaping!　We--we can't do anything about it.

　Jenna looked frustrated, too.

　Finley notices that Jenna's hands are shaking.

(This is war.)

　It was a world they had no connection to.

　Men had been taught that it was normal to be on the battlefield, but it was terrifying to experience it like this.

　Just running away was terrifying, but Finley couldn't imagine fighting the enemy.

''-- Brother Nix,''

　I turned away from the airship, which was engulfed in flames.

　Jenna wiped her tears away.

　Then a hand reached out to Jenna and Finley from the crowd.

'We've found it,'

　The hooded woman pulls a gun on Finley.

'Follow me.'

　Jenna's eyes widen in surprise when she hears the voice of the hooded woman.

'You--Melse,'

Good to see you. How have you been?

　Finley's legs trembled as he was held up at gunpoint.

(Hey, why is sister Merse here?)

Follow me. If you run, I won't hesitate to shoot you in the back.

　Jenna bit down on her back teeth and was taken to Merse with Finley.

◇

d*mn!

"Yikes!

　The two were brought into one of the warehouses in the school.

　Inside the warehouse where the tools used in class were placed, there was a figure of Zola dressed in a tattered dress.

　The fan she was holding was also very much damaged.

　She looked skinny and unhealthy.

'Mother, I've brought you here.

　Merse said and kicked them both away.

　Both men had their hands tied behind their backs.

　Zola looked down at them and stomped on Finley's head with her foot.

'Ouch!'

'Shut up. It's annoying just to be that concubine's child, and now that you're pushing Merse and Rutoart to be your real wife's child - the kingdom is wrong.

　Finley glared at Zola.

'Huh?　Because you didn't give birth to your father's children.　Everything we do is dirty. You don't deserve to be kicked out!

You little shit!

Huh!

　Zola stomped on Finley repeatedly.

'You really think I'm worthy of a man the size of Barcus!　That guy should have just given me the money to do what I told him to do!　And that's because I'm going to let that grain-crushing Leon do whatever he wants!

　Seeing Finley suffering from being stepped on, Jenna hurriedly opened her mouth to provoke Zola to turn her attention back to her.

'You're not the grain crushers!　What have you people done for me?

　Zola had a blue streak on her forehead and kicked Jenna in the face.

'What did I do, sir?　You don't know how to do that!　I married Lucas!　That's why they treated you guys like aristocrats. You don't even know that, that's why I hate country kids!

　When the kingdom was giving preferential treatment to women, marriage to a woman who was not proportionate to her status was looked at with a white eye.

　This is also the reason why Barkas couldn't marry Rion and the others' mother, Ruse.

　Finley looks at Jenna.

'Sis!'

　Jenna said in a whisper.

'Finley, you need to shut up,'

　Then Jenna agitated Zola.

'It's a different time. You're not a nobleman anymore. Can't you understand that?'

Shut up!　I'll return to my nobleman's house immediately, and this time I'll execute you all!　I'm going to line your necks up in front of Balcus and laugh at you!　You betrayed me and that's what happened!

I'm not stupid. You're the one who screwed me over first!

　Jenna gets kicked by Zola and Finley gets teary-eyed as he watches.

　Merse laughed.

'No matter how strong you are. You were looking out, weren't you?　Rutgerdt is going to kill your brothers. You will pay for everything you've done.

　Finley thinks as he looks at Zola, who continues to kick Jenna in the form of a demon, and Merce, who is smiling happily at him.

(What the hell. Why are these guys so funny?)

　Finley looked at the two of them and was horrified.

◇

　The airship was engulfed in flames.

　Nix closed his eyes, but he opened them, feeling uncomfortable that he was safe forever.

　Then he saw the back of Aroganz with a container on his back in front of him.

'Rion!'

　Turning around, Rion gives Aroganz a thumbs up.

'Brother, you've kept me waiting. I'll take care of this part. No, I'll hold them off here, so go ahead, right?

　I wondered what he was going to say, but this is the usual Leon.

'As usual, you're talking incomprehensible stuff!　It's too late.

'I'm still in a hurry for this. Anyway, you really need to back off. This one's a bit tricky, apparently.

　When Aroganz looks at Rutoart, his opponent seems to have noticed.

　Rutoart is trembling.

'Rion. 'Rion, Rion!　Rio-ooh!''

　He waved his long hands around, hitting the buildings around him.

　Nix immediately ordered.

'Retreat like this!　We're going to put the rescue first!

Yes, sir!

　Nix's men answered Nix's instructions and the airship began to move.

　As they were moving away from the Allogants, Nix noticed the armor lined up next to it.

(What?)　(Is it the same type of allogantz?

　The appearance of the Aroganz was stinging.

　The two planes were so similar that one might be mistaken for thinking that Rion had made them again.

◇

　I watched Nix leave and I saw the monster throwing a tantrum and flailing about.

'Why do I hear Luthier's voice?'

　If I muttered in the cockpit, Luxion would answer immediately.

''Wasn't it Luthion who used some of the magical equipment you brought to the royal capital?''

Did you use that guy?　I mean, was Rutoart such an important person?

　Was it approved by the determined people enough to use some of the magical equipment?

　As I was thinking this, Finn and Kurosuke, who looked like a fake Aroganz floating next to me, spoke to me.

''-- The magic armor without a core will go out of control. And it takes the lives of its users. I'm sorry to say it, but your brother was used as a discarded pawn.''

'Seeing as it didn't take a life, were you doping?　You're so ugly and bloated, I can't even look at you.

　The black-skinned one was apparently saddened by the end of his companion's existence.

　And the two of them - I finally remembered.

'Finn, is that armor a chargeable item?'

"Hmm?　Yeah, I guess so. I didn't buy it, but I was lucky enough to find it.'

　Kurosuke brags.

'It's fate that I met my partner!　I don't care about the billing items or previous lives!'

　Luxion's attitude is cold.

''You've picked up a hell of a lot of garbage. I feel sorry for Finn.''

Come on, man, say it again!

　Luxion and Kurosuke started to make a fuss, but apparently Luthion couldn't stand it anymore.

''Riiiiiight!!!''

　They were coming towards me, but Finn was also confused because he resembled Aroganz.

　I'm wondering which of us to attack.

　I quickly disperse, distracting Luttoart and taking out my rifle from the container.

'We'll just have to take them down, won't we?'

　I checked with Finn and he affirmed.

'I can't do it if you've eroded this far. If you don't want to fight, I'll put a stop to it.'

Don't get me wrong. If I had to take him down, this is someone I'd gladly take down. And that's my ex-brother. And he's a fake. He's not family.

　As he said this, Finn was attacked by tentacles in the air, but he avoided them brilliantly and slashed at them with his great sword.

'It's complicated. I hope it's not a problem, but be careful.''

　The stinging allogants resembled the billing items I had purchased in a previous life.

'I will. But still--you finally found it.

　I wondered where it was, but I didn't think Finn had gotten it.

　Brave - I think it was called that, I think. I had forgotten about it.

　Luxion asks me for instructions.

'Master, the enemy's magical armor is preparing a magical attack. I request permission to use the missile.''

Smash them!

　As one of the containers opened, a series of missiles shot out of it and struck Luthion.

　All of them were controlled by Luxion, hitting the eyeballs in his body and enveloping him in flames.

''Gaaa!''

　I shouted at Rutoart as he shouted.

I have a grudge against you too, Rutoart, because you've had it up to this point!　I'll smash you without a care in the world!

"Let's turn that black stuff into ashes as well, shall we?

...rejected.

　Rutoart reaches out and reaches out and attacks me.

　He tries to catch me, so I shoot him with my rifle.

　But it doesn't stop moving to the extent of shooting out.

'Nasty,'

'It's not very effective. I suggest a change of weapon.

　As I got a distance away, Finn came towards me and severed Luthiart's arm with his big sword.

　He plummets straight down from the sky, and soon afterwards slashes his other hand as well.

'Don't let your guard down. If you're going to use a gun, it's useless if you don't aim at the pilot inside this thing. Or we'll just blow it up.''

　He seems to have gotten quite used to fighting against the magical armor.

''How many times have you fought this kind of thing?''

That's six times you've done this. Is this your first time?

No, it's only happened once before.

　It's a different kind of hassle than the old Black Knight's.

"It's better than nothing. Cover me up.

I'm on it. As long as Luxion doesn't miss his aim, we'll be fine.

　Then, without a second thought, Kurosuke interrupted the conversation.

'That guy is the least trustworthy, though!　Buddy, let's take it down ourselves.

　Luxion is annoyed.

'We don't need you. Master, let's take it down on our own.''

Don't get all tense.

　I regain my grip on the controls and operate the pedals to turn the Allogants around once in the air.

　Luttoart, who has sprouted new arms, swings his hands around, trying to hit us.

　Tentacles attack us, and we cut them off with the axe we took out of the container.

'Is a missile not enough to blow them up?'

I request the use of this unit.

The damage is done. --Give me Schwert.

　Then, a Shweert was ejected from the main body of the Luxion that was waiting in the sky.

　When the container was purged, it merged with the Schwerdt in the air.

''Whoa!　Combined!

　A slightly excited Finn is funny.

　This guy is a boy, too.

Okay.

"Combining is a waste of time. --Now, are you ready?

　He pulls the great sword from Schwerdt and holds it up, and as he holds it up, so does Finn across Luttoart.

　He looks at Rutoart, who is screaming in his ugly form.

'Rutoart, if you can't save yourself, I'll at least let you go.

　At my words, Luxion says sarcastically.

'That's very kind of you. Do you have any good memories as your brother?''

No. Well, even if I hated you, I wouldn't want to kill you.

　Aroganz spurts a booster and rams it into the Luttoart, picking up speed.

　The same goes for Finn on the other side.

　He puts Luttoart between them and charges at him, facing him - and swings his great sword out.

　Then, as Rutoart spews a black liquid in the air, he changes direction and charges again.

　It was me and Finn, and we were cutting up Lutoart.

'Luxion, what is his weakness?

'It's simply the head. There's a reaction there that I believe is Rutto art.

I see.

　The person's face was contorted with fear as he moved the arogant in front of the rampaging Luthier.

'Why? Why am I--I'm so much better than you!　I am a marquis!　I should have it all!　Rank, honor, and fortune!　And the woman!

　You seem to be confused.

　Just like the old black knight.

　He thrust his great sword into the face of someone like that.

'Luttoart, you've gone about it the wrong way.

"Rio-oh-oh!

　Luthion mutters as Luthion shouts out, and Luxion quickly finishes it off.

'Impact.'

　The great sword turned red and the lute-art bobbed and popped as if it was boiling.

　As the black liquid splashed around, the sticky liquid stuck to Aroganz as well.

''Master, someone is approaching us. It seems that their purpose is to recover the fragments of the magic armor.''

Were they from Rachels?

'--Also, the school has reported that the master's sister and sister are being held captive. The Master's sister and sister are being held captive. The two culprits are Zola and Merse. Your sister is being violated.

What--?

　Finn, who had heard this, approached me.

''Leon, you go save your sisters. We'll crush the pieces of the magic armor ourselves.

"I will not let them take advantage of my people!

　I'll let Finn take care of this, and Luxion and I will head to the school.

''Ta, please.''

　But, of all things, Zola and Merse?
