Reiji: If I don't fight, I won't be able to protect those important to me...So, I will fight.
Sayuki: Nii-san...So than-
Reiji: Ah. If a mage stands in my way...I'll knock them aside.
Sakura: Master...
Reiji: ...I love this island. I love everyone who lives here. And...I want to live here with them.
Reiji: Therefore, I'll protect the normal, 'everyday life' that I love. Even from someone like Kirisaki.
Sayuki: ...I understand. If that is your answer, Nii-san, I want to fight with you...No, we WILL fight together.
Reiji: Ah. However, I'm only going to target those who are clearly our 'enemy'.
Sakura: Enemy?
Reiji: In other words, those who won't even try and talk things out with, those are the only people I will consider an enemy.
Sayuki: But, if enough time passes, and no one tries to challenge us...Nii-san, are you going to just sacrifice everyone else?
Reiji: ...No, I doubt that much time will ever pass. However, I'm not going to blindly follow the rules of this war like a puppet.
Sakura: But Master, isn't it impossible for you to go against the Rules of the mage who created this Space?
Reiji: Ah. That's why, in order to end this stupid war, I'm going to find that *** and beat him up.
Sayuki: Nii-san...
Reiji: I'll knock down any enemy who gets in my way. Until I can find Odin,
I can do nothing but abide by that ***'s Rules in order to survive.
Reiji: That is my answer. Therefore, Sakura...please lend me your power.
Sakura: Un!
Sayuki: Nii-san...I'll help you search for Odin. Therefore...please let me come with you.
Sayuki: If it was anyone else but you, Nii-san, I wouldn't be able to trust them...and I'd have to fight him alone.
Reiji: ...Sayuki, you dummy.
Sayuki: Eh?
Reiji: I'm not fighting just for myself. Because I want to live here with them all, I'm not giving up on the people of this island.
I'd die before I let that happen.
Reiji: And above everything else, it would be great to have help in searching for the puppetmaster...
Reiji: Of course I want you to come along.
Sayuki: ...Nn.
Sakura: Than, let's decide on our next move-
Reiji: Ah.
Sakura: -Over dinner.
Reiji: Yeah...W-Wait a minute!
Sakura: Feh?
Reiji: How the hell did you move a talk this serious to food?!
Sakura: Because, it's not possible to fight well when you're hungry, right?!
Sakura: Besides, I've always wanted to 'eat'. Now that I finally have a form, I want to eat food. What else could I think of?
Reiji: That's not the point! Since Kirisaki could attack us at anytime, we need to first come up with a plan!
Sakura: But, I've had to put up with only watching Master eat meals FOREVER! Why can't I eat a lot too?!
Reiji: Aaahh, ***...I got it, after we get out of this pinch, I'll make you whatever you want,
so let's decide on what we need to do, ok?
Sakura: Really?!
Reiji: Ah. I'll make you anything I know how to make.
Sakura: Yay! I can't wait! Eheehee~
Reiji: Jeez...I'm worried about later...
After I sigh heavily I turn to Sayuki, who looks almost as incredulous as I feel.
Reiji: Alright. Disregarding that dysfunctional weapon over there, the problem is what to do when we face Kirisaki.
Sayuki: Nn...?!
Sayuki: Nii-san, get down!!
Reiji: Eh?
Reiji: Na?!
A moment after Sayuki's warning, a roaring sound occurs, and my vision is concealed by a veil of white smoke.
Reiji: What on earth was that?!
Sayuki: This magic is...
Kengo: I finally found you, Yoshi-yan.
Reiji: Kirisaki!
As the smoke clears, I see just who it is on the other side of the large hole that is now in our house.
It is the opponent we least wanted to see right now.
Kengo: Well, guess I'll invite myself inside.
Reiji: Ha...You've gotta be kidding me.
Sayuki: Ku...
Sayuki glares at Kirisaki, but judging by her eyes I can tell that she didn't expect him to find us so soon.
Kengo: Really, that lady's power had me worried for a little while. No matter what attack I tried,
she was able to repel it easily.
Reiji: Heh. we're still in one piece since you have to deal with her, so just what did you do to her, goddamnit!
Kengo: Oh no no, you guys were just lucky. A little bit after you guys left she did as well; apparently she loves to play the
role of the "superhero" and just save someone.
Sayuki: Superhero?
Kengo: Yeah, a superhero helps people in need, although they don't usually run away after saving those in need.
Kengo: And now, it's checkmate. I wouldn't expect that lady to show up again and save you at the last minute this time.
Reiji: ...
Kengo: After fighting with that young lady, I'm running a little low on magical power. So, I'm going to end things here and now.
Sayuki: Wrong. The situation is different than the surprise attack you tried a while ago.
We're not going to be taken out so easily.
Sayuki says this to Kirisaki, but doesn't attack him and just waits for his reaction.
...Crap, Sayuki must have used up more magic in her fight with Satomura than I thought.
Kengo: Ha...Of course, it wouldn't be any fun if I were to win that easy.
Sakura: ...Master, be careful!
Reiji: Ah. I understand!
I already know the nature of Kirisaki's power and magical weapon.
Still, for him to be so confident, that must mean he's still hiding a trump card that he's sure will kill us!
Kengo: Still, that young lady playing the superhero role did make me waste a lot of time and magic on her...
Kengo: Therefore, before that young lady can interrupt me again, I'll have to hurry.
Kengo: Well, this situation is a little too calm for my liking...I think I'll actually be serious.
Sayuki: Serious?
Kengo: Yup. I'll give you a souveneir of the underworld... Take a look at this!!
Sakura: !! There's a lot of magic packed into that!
Sayuki: ?!
Kengo: NERO APOCALYPSE!!
Sakura: This is...
Reiji: Kirisaki's knives...is he going to use ALL of them?!
Kengo: Good insight... While my Stream Field does allow me to make an unlimited number of weapons, they are weak and brittle...
Kengo: But if I combine all 666 into one, it nullifies that weak point.
Kengo: Every single spec of dust will be pierced, and anything in the field of fire will definitely die!
Reiji: This is bad...
Just one knife is equal to Sayuki's normal attack power.
In other words, this attack is 666 times more powerful than that...It's destructive power is off the charts!
Kengo: You won't have to worry. I'll make sure to kill all three of you at the same time. That way, you won't have to suffer.
Kengo: It's useless to resist, so just give in and die!
And with that, the knife comprised of the power of 666 fires forward, ready to carve 'death' into all of our bodies!
There is no way that we'll be able to stop all 666 fangs here!
Sayuki: Nii-san!!
Reiji: ***...We'll only get this far?
I can't help but watch the approaching knife of absolute death that is flying at my face.
Sakura: Curry rice.
Reiji: Eh?
My head whips around to Sakura at her extremely out of place words.
Because those words are so abnormal in this situation, my brain struggles to understand just what Sakura is saying.
Sakura: Although I really want to try some meat, Curry Rice sounds really interesting.
So, after we get out of this, I want you to make me some, Master.
Sakura: Therefore, I'll handle this!
Reiji: Na?!!
When she explains it, I finally understand that Sakura is talking about the conversation we had a little bit ago.
We're about to be annihilated, but she's just calmly standing there...
Sayuki: A barrier...of light?!
Sakura: Therefore, I want you to make me some curry rice as a reward, Master.
As she holds back the meteor of death with a wall of light, Sakura turns her head around and says that to me.
Reiji: ...
And, I finally realize it.
Since she is a weapon, Sakura is waiting for my words.
She said it herself, if I wish for it, she'll be whatever I want her to be...Because that is why she exists!
Reiji: Ah. Treat this enemy however you like than.
Reiji: Therefore, don't hold back! Sakura!!
Sakura: Ok, Master!!
At my signal, an ambient light surrounds Sakura, and begins to grow brighter as a storm gathers around her!
Kengo: W-What is this magic!
Kengo: My Nero Apocalypse is being stopped by a barrier of light?!
Sakura: ...
Reiji: No...this is different...
This vague light isn't a barrier at all.
It is a huge torrent of magic that is enough to obliterate everything that comes into contact with it!
Sakura is focusing every bit of magic she has on Kirisakis' attack!!
Reiji: (Hoarse gasp)
And I realize it.
We haven't changed. Sakura has.
Her tone is usually one that likes to joke, but in the face of death like this, her behavior has completely changed.
Because, to Sakura, there isn't anything anywhere that can threaten her!!
Sakura: Here I go, Master!
Kengo: Oh no you don't!!
Kirisaki overloads his attack with all of his remaining magic, and the knife begins to pierce through the barrier of light!
Sakura: ...
Before our eyes approaches a knife with the collective power of 666.
All 666 knives were combined into this one, gigantic blade of power.
It will devour all enemies in it's path when it hits, and it roars in fury like a beast!
However...as if to resonate with the roar of the beast, Sakura thrusts her arms out, and a pink flash gathers in her palms.
It is a ball of raging magical particles.
She is gathering all of her magic into that small ball which I know is insanely powerful, and turns her eyes to the 666 beasts.
There, an overwhelming coalition of death is only barely being held back by Sakura's powerful barrier of light.
It is a collective manifestation of "bad luck"!
However...That ball of light is the manifestation of "absolute power".
The amount of magic she has gathered in her hands feels almost enough to destroy the world,
and she's still gathering it, like continuing to sharpen a blade that cuts through anything!
Sakura: LAEVATEINN!!!!
That flash of light blasts forward, surpassing the speed of sound, the speed of light...even godspeed.
It is a light that would even penetrate and obliterate the gods themselves.
They say in the mythic age that nine worlds existed. The amount of power this blow holds was enough to bring about the end of
every single one of them.
Laevateinn
It was known as the "Staff of Destruction", and feared as the ultimate destructive magic.
The light it produces is brighter than the sun and covered the whole world. It's legend called for it as the ultimate sword,
and for Sakura, it is her strongest and ultimate move.
A flash that shines for a thousand years that purifies the impure world, Laevateinn is an appropriate name for it.
Unfortunately, the sad truth about this weapon is that was an instrument of war, and only a certain Holy Sword was able to
create the "peace" needed to end the war.
This light that is capable of destroying nine worlds is a reflection of Sakura's determination,
and is therefore not something easy to defeat.
Yes, the power of 666 cannot possibly compare with a magic that is so infinite that it can destroy worlds!
Kengo: Wha?!
The blast of light collides with the beast of 666 knives, and purifies it instantly.
Her blast destroys the specter of "death", and even continues to tear at the world itself for a few moments after.
However, the one who remains standing, is the victor...
Kengo: Ha...I didn't think a monster could exist that could have such power that it could destroy everything of mine at once...
The loser in front of me has already begun to shine, like magic itself.
Reiji: Even after that, you're still alive?!
