I'll kill you after I finish this game!

Coincidentally, the gods no longer see tomorrow, only the old world of today and the new world of an uncertain tomorrow.

Now, the war will not end with dawn; the next phase of fighting has already begun.

The very top of Suwahara Tower.

"Jibril, Nanami, there's nothing more to worry about."

Skadi, in her true form, was dressed in pure white, sharp, and heroic armor. Her crystal-clear blue one-winged skirt cascaded down with wisps of enchanting fluorescence, and her clear voice echoed all around.

Looking down over the changes in Suwahara, he spoke to Jibril and Nanami behind him without turning his head:

"If we win, maybe we'll meet again, in the New World or something..."

"...Lady Skadi, may your martial prowess be everlasting."

Jibril paused for a moment, but ultimately said nothing more. This was the battlefield where she was about to step onto for the final performance, and she didn't want to say anything unnecessary.

The only one who wished Skadi a successful start was to lift the hem of her skirt on both sides, move the halo on the side of her head to the back of her head, and bow to Skadi in front of her.

Swish——!

In an instant, Jibril had already teleported away, leaving this place and heading to her own battlefield.

Skadi initially didn't send her to the sixth altar, which was the church, since it was now the place where the Skywing Legion and the Machine Legion fought against each other.

Even if Jibril didn't say it, she was unwilling to fight her predecessors because of her emotions, so she obeyed Skadi's orders and went to other battlefields, thus avoiding Azriel and the others.

"You gave me a sense of life and meaning. I am so happy that I am fighting alongside you in the end in this second life."

Nanami shifted her pace and slowly walked to Skadi's side. She had changed back into her original clothes, a light green kimono. Although simple, it gave her a gentle, dandelion-like beauty when paired with her artificial-looking features.

A gentle smile, emanating from her heart, graced her exquisite and flawless face. Standing next to the equally beautiful Skadi, they exuded a resonant sense of heroism and picturesque beauty, befitting female warriors.

"So, you have no regrets?"

Skadi didn't look at Nanami, but she could sense that the other was smiling. A look of curiosity appeared on her face as she asked this most unusual person she had ever met in her bizarre life.

She likes Nanami and enjoys the feeling of competing and living together, whether it's mundane or exciting.

Besides Mary, Skadi also found a precious and special feeling in Nanami in addition to her friendship with her.

"Hmm... I still want to travel to many more places around the world, and I want to go with you."

Nanami spoke with genuine emotion, her face showing regret and distress. She pursed her delicate lips and said, "After all, even if I become powerful... I'm still a terrible navigator."

If she were with anyone else, even Gipgil, Nanami would never admit that she was a terrible navigator.

After all, I'm already so strong, yet I still keep getting lost. I feel inexplicably ashamed and embarrassed.

But it has nothing to do with Skadi, since she always finds him with uncanny accuracy and knows about his embarrassing little flaws.

Whether it's traveling together to see the world or escaping the annoyance of routine, having someone empathetic and trustworthy by your side is truly comforting and a habit.

The only regret is probably this: because of my preconceived notions, even when I saw new scenery and things, it was hard to recall the wonderful feeling of seeing them for the first time.

If I could, I'd love to continue traveling with Skadi.

"Hehe, there's definitely a future ahead, but I'm a little tired. If you're willing to wait for me, I'd love to continue traveling with you."

Looking at the rising sun in the distance, Skadi responded cheerfully to Nanami's expressed regret.

She would definitely go if she had the chance, but she was a little tired. If possible, she wanted to unload her responsibilities and burdens and get some rest.

If Nanami is willing to wait for her, Skadi would be happy to be her tour guide and accompany her on a journey around the world after they meet again.

"It's a deal, but don't die before me."

Nanami nodded seriously to Skadi, then lightly leaped in one direction, leaving Skadi with a figure that grew smaller and smaller.

Skadi watched Nanami leave with a complicated expression. Under the puzzled gazes of countless spectators, she gave a self-deprecating laugh and muttered to herself:

"Don't worry, whether it's what you said or because of our relationship, I will definitely not die before you."

Perhaps Nanami had already noticed, or perhaps she had been hinted at by some behind-the-scenes Mercury Serpent.

Skadi wouldn't die at that point until everyone else had finished.

After all, she's dead, which is quite troublesome for Nanami, although she doesn't care since she's been reborn.

Skadi glanced one last time in the direction of the church, then looked down at the magnificent sapphire set in the center of her chest, shimmering with a faint glow.

At this moment, Yoshino, as a contracted spirit, has merged into her body and is connected to Skadi's mind.

Even as a child, she will face the final outcome together with Skadi.

I'm not afraid of death, but I'm more afraid of having no familiar family members around me anymore.

Therefore, we must fight together.

.........

"Although I know you've been hiding some things from me, I'm afraid it wouldn't be good for either of us to tell you, is that what you're thinking?"

Light as a dandelion, Nanami leaped back and forth on the roof of Suwahara as if strolling leisurely, muttering to herself.

I didn't rush to the battlefield. After all, it was just weeding, and weeding that was a bit difficult to pull. I didn't need to be so on high alert.

At this moment, she was still thinking about Skadi and herself. Even though her keen senses had already foreseen the danger and calamity that was about to befall her, she was not nervous at all.

Skadi is believed to be the same; both of them have died and been reborn. Skadi was given a second life by Skadi, while Skadi herself has truly reincarnated countless times.

The two had long since become indifferent to matters of life and death; the strong would continue to live if they won, and the weak would die if they lost.

A very real and cruel reality problem, a boring topic that Nanami has absolutely no interest in discussing.

Although she and Skadi were both daughters of samurai families and both warriors and martial artists, she preferred to think about things that mattered to her.

For example, her second life so far, a life she finds very interesting and transformative.

Nanami is a sword, and she used to live like a living dead puppet.

Nanami is a person, currently acting as a cunning and curious young girl, constantly exploring more interesting things.

I want to live, I want to fight with all my might, I want to experience the feeling of striving for results.

All of this... all of this was achieved through Skadi: the all-out battles, the simple act of living, the feeling of striving, and the twisted emotions of initially wanting to kill her yet being unable to...

As scenes from the past surfaced in her mind, the part of Nanami's face that had been swallowed by shadows revealed an extremely sinister smile that sent chills down the spines of countless viewers.

Even though viewers sensed a twisted malice beneath Nanami's exquisite and beautiful exterior, they still followed her memories and witnessed Nanami's past, as well as her karmic connection with Skadi.

That was the Nanami of the past, just as she had told Skadi about Fujii Ren; she was a samurai from ancient Japan.

What is presented to countless viewers is a Japan ravaged by war in history, except that at that time, Japan had many talented and extraordinary people.

Ninjas with outstanding abilities or special bloodlines, talented individuals with special abilities, and powerful swordsmen and warriors who have become famous throughout the land or even the world through martial arts training.

This is the world where Nanami exists, and the era in which she was born.

The medieval Japan of the "Owari period" is similar to the established history and culture of Japan and the actual Edo period.

Nanami was born in an era with a wide variety of martial arts styles, as well as kendo styles.

As the daughter of a martial arts family, she was born into a family of swordsmen, and her family was a famous swordsmanship school in the world, because it was a swordsmanship that did not use a knife - the Kyoto-ryu.

"Hmm, it's a slightly different history of Japan, but compared to the powerful existence of Nanami, it feels... rather ordinary." Saeko Busujima was surprised by the different history of Japan, but puzzled by its ordinariness compared to Nanami.

After all, Nanami displayed incredible power, and she was also a female martial artist with unparalleled skill in swordsmanship.

Many viewers felt the same way she did: Nanami was born into a world teeming with powerful individuals, but the reality was somewhat unusual, yet it seemed rather ordinary in comparison.

"Swordsmanship without a knife? How interesting." Hawkeye Mihawk from the One Piece world stared at the video with great interest. Once the topic of swords and blades came up, he was no longer sleepy.

Swordsmanship without weapons is nothing special to Hawkeye, but when it comes to the incredibly powerful Nanami family, his curiosity is bound to be piqued.

Because Nanami gave Hawkeye, a swordsman, the feeling that he was like an extremely sharp humanoid sword!

.......

The video continues to reminisce about Nanami, perhaps like a revolving lantern before the final battle. Nanami feels that her life is neither long nor short, and in terms of excitement and fun, it probably can't compare to Skadi's.

Nanami was born into the Yasuri family, who use the Kyoto-ryu style. Her father was the sixth head of the Kyoto-ryu family, named Yasuri Rokuji.

Because Japan was in a chaotic period at that time, wars were caused by various factors. Nanami's father, Yasuri Rokushi, was known as a hero of the chaotic times for suppressing the rebellion of Hida Takahito.

After Nanami was born, her father regarded her as the next successor of the Kyoto-ryu school, and the head of the Yasuri family began to cultivate and train her from the time she could walk.

However, what happened next left many viewers speechless with surprise: the girl in the video, Nanami, had been in very poor health since childhood.

She can be described as a sickly beauty who is always in a weak state. Although her father, Yasu Rokuji, is distressed by his daughter's poor health, he has not given up on her.

The audience was also surprised that the healthy Nanami, born into a samurai family, was so sickly, which seemed to clash with his powerful and cunning nature.

What could possibly make Nanami so powerful? The audience was incredibly curious.

Did they go through something to become so incredibly powerful?

Although they thought this way, they seemed to have forgotten that some people are born like Mary, unfairly standing at the top that others cannot reach even with painstaking effort.

The same applies to the being named Yasuri Nanami.

Viewers expected a story of a sickly girl who would become an unparalleled powerhouse through hardship and trials, but what happened next made many viewers feel that the other person was not even in the same league as them.

Despite Qiti's poor physical condition, Lu Liuzhi patiently taught him the Void Blade Style. However, it wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't been taught; the teaching revealed a shocking truth that left him speechless.

Although Nanami is sickly, her martial arts talent is beyond what can be summarized or described by terms like "genius," "monster," or "prodigy."

In their very first encounter, as a young child, he easily defeated his father in a single move and even injured his own father.

Rokushige thus discovered that Nanami's potential power was too great, but because Nanami's frail body could not control this potential power, she would eventually destroy herself. Therefore, he transferred the right of succession to his newborn younger brother, Shichika.

But her father still greatly underestimated his daughter's potential power, a power beyond his comprehension.

Even though Nanami was deprived of her right to practice martial arts, she had no emotions or opinions, because it meant nothing to her.

She had never practiced martial arts, yet she mastered the entire Kyoto-ryu style in a single glance, simply because she had only 'seen' it once.

Why is that?

You can roughly remember something after seeing it once, and you can remember it firmly after seeing it twice.

The practice of the Seven Realities is seeing; the cultivation of the Seven Realities is seeing.

She only needed to watch, and then she learned martial arts as if by copying and pasting, even though she hadn't practiced anything physically.

At first, the younger brother, Shichika, also felt sorry for his sickly older sister. However, after his sister told him her true self without reservation, Shichika realized that his sister was actually 'very strong'.

The older sister possesses the genius eye "Kenkiku," which allows her to instantly grasp almost everything she has seen, including ninjutsu, techniques, skills, illusions, texts, and physical constitutions.
