We separated from No.18-san and proceeded to the depths of the uninhabited island.
After walking silently for a while, we could see the traces of a battle between the trees.
The earth dyed in Zeon’s darkness, the forest infested by Deal’s deadly poison, and rocks shaved off by Von’s sand. Leia-sensei was taken aback by the glimpse of the traces of a fierce battle
(This horrifying remnant of spiritual power! Did Zeon come out into this world!? …No, I can feel Allen’s strong anger from this darkness…)
With a grim expression, she pinched the jet-black soil with her fingers.
(It doesn’t make sense for Allen to draw out this much power while maintaining his ego… Is it possible that the “path” was connected!? No, that doesn’t make sense. If that was the case… Allen wouldn’t have chosen to “escape”. Without a doubt, Deal and Von would have been killed on the spot.)
Leia-sensei kept silent and did not move, perhaps because she was analyzing the remnants of the spiritual power.
(But what does this mean!? How did Allen remain safe while pulling out so much power from Zeon himself? ……Dahlia. Are you “hiding” something from me?)
「Umm, sensei…? Is there something wrong?」
「…Sorry. I was caught in my thoughts. Let’s move on.」
Sensei gave a somewhat evasive answer, and went deeper into the uninhabited island without saying much else.
And we finally arrived at “that place”.
Bacchus-san unleashed his final attack, Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style Secret Technique – Mirrored Sakura Slash, and disappeared as particles of light in that place.
And there was a magnificent tomb that I had never seen before in that spot.
『The 16th Successor of Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style, Bacchus Valencia, lies here.』
Bacchus-san’s name was engraved on the tombstone.
「Who… did this…?」 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om
As soon as Rose muttered so,
「–Raise your hands and come out within three seconds. If you make any suspicious movements, I will kill you.」
Leia-sensei released a “serious killing intent” I had never felt from her before.
「「「「「「……」」」」」」
The weight was “immense”.
A pressure you wouldn’t imagine from a young woman who usually cackles while reading shounen manga.
