Without the energy to care about her own body, Ai'er opened one eye with great effort:

"Attack? Where is it coming from..."

"Too many mistakes, Elbernier." Ottliet's wings dimmed a little, but his half-hanging body slowly landed on the ground. The spell completely blocked El's last attack, but the angel still had a lot of room left.

"First point. You tricked me into saying that I only had four slots, hoping to make me careless at the last moment and escape, right? But I never believed the enemy's words from beginning to end. When did you get the illusion that I believed you?"

"……Well……"

"Second point. I can only use the inclusion technique once at a time. You are right. That is due to my personal lack of ability. But you misunderstood me as the only one who can use the inclusion technique."

"That is to say..."

"Half-baked attacks won't work. But I have prepared the offensive technique to interrupt your teleportation from the beginning. In addition to the margin for using the included technique, I will certainly not give up my personal abilities."

“…are they wings…?”

Elle understood quickly.

There was no sign that the opponent had used the technique in advance.

But it's not that it doesn't exist - it's just covered by the wings. Hide your spell under the inherent magic circuit of your body, so that E'er will mistake the spell that the other party has already prepared for for part of her body.

I see. It seems that I have made a lot of mistakes...

"As expected, a 'half-baked' fight won't work..." Ai'er smiled bitterly.

Ottilet stepped on the ground with both feet and walked slowly towards Ai'er:

"Well...goodbye, offender."

The dazzling light in Ai'er's eyes covered the starry sky. The seemingly irresistible attack was aimed at her little head. The strong energy and the additional attack of collapse might make Ai'er's body completely dissipate! However, Ai'er, even her magic power could not...

“…Move…!!!”

Ai'er twisted her body and roared in her heart. She forced her limbs, meridians and magic circuits that had just been forcibly freed from the strong reference to reorganize together. She only drew a little usable magic power from it and finally constructed the most feasible but too simple defense spell in front of her. She wanted to pick up "that thing" in the gem and prepare to die together but she couldn't move at all - Ai'er's physical quality was too far behind her magical quality.

Do we really have to stop here?

Ai'er suddenly remembered some things from the past.

Gentle parents, kind classmates and friends, busy study life, exams, study, and occasional entertainment until - those are clearly the most correct scenes for me.

Change is always so abrupt.

If I had known earlier, maybe I shouldn't have——

wrong--

Regret is not my style.

It's too early to give up now. Let me put it this way. I'm a genius, a neat and natural elf at all times. I boasted in front of the clan leader and elders that I could find the target in the human world. The human world is also extremely safe. No one can beat me. I even ran away from that human world. I made so many preparations for this moment. I shouldn't have died so easily. Otherwise, things wouldn't be done and I wouldn't be able to find everything on my body. I have to give it to these annoying birdmen. Lily and Coco outside are also——

"...Lily." Ai'er suddenly murmured softly.

What would Lily and the others do without me?

The technique in his hand stopped unconsciously.

Lily is always like that.

I'm afraid that I'll be fooled by the bad Coco even though I have great power. I might be caught later. Coco, too, could be cuter...

The light released by the attack has completely filled Ai'er's vision.

I can't even feel the concept of distance.

Until the defensive spell in front of Ai'er completely collapsed, the cold star strike was about to completely envelop Ai'er.

"..."

If I die here, will they be sad?

"—"

"……Eh?"

The gem on Elle's waist suddenly burst out with an unprecedented strong light, and complicated spells immediately bloomed on the spot. The star strike seemed to be blocked by a black hole, and the halo was completely absorbed - at the same time, a more logical and more solid teleportation magic was constructed on the spot, and the strong reference to space and state isolation instantly knocked Otilette away!

Ai'er, who hadn't felt the attack for a long time, opened her eyes in the strong light.

The little figure with short black hair stood in front of Ai'er.

"...Lily?"

60. South Sky

After being blown away by the strong impact, Otilette quickly adjusted his body shape, and his four wings spread wide in the air, half hanging in the air.

A strange pattern of light rippled in front of Ai'er, and another figure appeared out of thin air in the outlined space.

"……what happened?"

Otilette soon felt something - another spell that did not belong to this world was forcibly connecting through the internal coordinates, like a worm in a fruit taking root and sprouting in this world! And now all he could do was...

"【Qilin】, 【Sky Eagle】!"

The stars in the sky lit up again, and the prison of the attack enveloped the figure and Ai'er who were being teleported. However, the powerful attacks just now disappeared inexplicably when they touched the figure, until the figure in front of them gradually became clear.

The attack was ineffective.

The little girl with short black hair just stood in front of Ai'er.

It's too late to stop it.

When the halo completely calmed down, Ottilet noticed the girl's detailed appearance. The girl's clothes were a little too big and gray, and her tender feet were even shackled inexplicably, while her face was incongruously delicate and cute.

The other person was very young. You could tell—even young enough to look almost the same.

Other...races?

Dwarves? Dragons? Vampires? Or humans?

"...Lily?"

Ai'er murmured, calling out to the figure in front of her.

"Yeah. I'm here."

Lily's voice was childish but clear. Ai'er wanted to raise her body, but then she remembered that she couldn't move since early in the morning. There was still a lot of magic left in her body, but it was in a mess.

The technique just now was almost the limit. Ai'er was now useless.

Yet, I felt at ease unconsciously.

"Lily..." It sounded like a question, but also like a request.

"Ah."

Lily responded. She squatted down a little and put her hand on Elle's messy golden hair.

The tuft of golden hair that disappeared slowly grew back.

"... Ai'er has tried very hard." Lily said childishly: "Leave the rest to me."

He is obviously just a young child.

The comfort was as clumsy as a child who was deliberately pretending to be an adult.

Yet Ai'er felt inexplicably at ease.

Looking at Lily's back.

I wanted to say something, but I didn't even have the strength to open my mouth.

I could only move my lips slightly and murmur in a voice that only I could understand:

"…Lily. Thank you."

……

Lily stood up again from in front of Ai'er and looked around at the starry sky.

"No, the moon..."

There is no moon here.

Maybe there are many monotonous places, but Lily was so obsessed that she only noticed this one.

The starry sky should probably be even, but there are a few dark patches that seem concave.

Those are traces of a technique that has already been used.

And Otilette over there was just unexpectedly, repeatedly pondering the girl in front of him.

How did this person get in?

Even without modification, the internal coordinates cannot be leaked out casually——

"…Is it the mark of a gem?"

Otilette soon understood.

When Elle lost her defense, the special effect technique came into contact with Elle's body, and then activated the imprint that this person had left in the other person's gem using Fugue, similar to Elle's sequence technique.

The imprint automatically constructed a defensive spell, and in addition to sending out Ai'er's coordinates, it also constructed a teleportation target to enable teleportation from the outside to the inside.

"Sure enough, it won't work without any modification..."

The temporary world built quickly is full of errors and omissions no matter how you look at it.

Noticing Otilette's gaze, Lily responded with her own gaze.

The two looked at each other silently.

The lavender pupils and cute face seemed indescribably strange to the angel.

Age? Body shape? Strange focus?

neither.

The only source of weirdness can be powerful force - or the contrast it causes.

This girl was definitely not very old. She wasn't even a normal human age.
