The Knight of the Second Generation of Demons Re-enacts

"Don't worry about that. Kotori and I will definitely protect you. I have a promise with you."

"Yeah, I still trust the promise made to Superman."

"Promised Superman?"

Hearing this word for the first time, Shizhi tilted his head subconsciously.

"That's you. Now people on the Internet call you the Promise Superman. After all, in the videos, aren't you the one who always wants to talk about your promises and always try your best to fulfill them?"

"A promise to Superman?"

Shiori stroked the flaming sword Rehuo hanging at his waist.

"Yeah, that's not bad. I hope I can become such an amazing person in this world. Kotori, are you listening?"

"I'm listening."

The helpless voice of her younger sister was heard in the headphones. Kotori, who knew her elder sister very well, knew exactly what her elder sister was going to do next.

"But sis, do you really want to borrow Kurumi's power? That guy is so dangerous."

"If you want to go back in time, Kurumi's Kekeketei is the only way. And if we don't hurry up, Origami's tragedy will be irreversible."

"Okay, Kannazuki, go prepare for teleportation, Shiori, get ready, our date (war) is about to begin."

"Oh, I'm ready."

074: Phantom is shocked

Tokisaki Kurumi felt as if the whole world knew that she could travel back in time.

Just after sending Origami away, Shiori actually found her quickly and tried to make a deal with her.

However, she had originally planned to tell Shiori about this as a precaution, so she didn't really care about Shiori's arrival. She just tentatively asked why the other party knew about the deal between her and Origami.

"Hehe, so Shiori-san came to me because he was reminded by Mr. Stellius and learned about the deal between Origami-san and me from Ms. Nia?"

Kurumi covered her mouth and chuckled, but there was no smile in her eyes, because this meant that Stellius and Nia could retrieve her location at any time, adding risks to her plan.

Of course, this thought only appeared in Kuang San's mind for a moment and then disappeared.

After all, Stellius is too mysterious, and Kurumi is not sure she can deal with him, and the risk of making an enemy of him is too high; and there is actually no essential conflict between Kurumi and Niya. Niya is a smart person, and in order not to be targeted by Kurumi, she will not do anything hostile to Kurumi.

"It really makes me jealous. Origami-san has clearly declared war on you, hasn't she? Why are you still helping her? Shiori-san, do you like Origami-san that much?"

"Yeah, I like it."

Unexpectedly, Shiori did not avoid the topic as Kurumi expected, but looked at Kurumi's heterochromatic eyes seriously.

“Although Origami’s actions sometimes hurt me, I can feel her kindness. She has helped me a lot along the way. In my heart, she has long been an irreplaceable friend.

Not only that, whether it's Origami or other elves, or even you, Kurumi, at this point I have to admit that you have long been an irreplaceable and important existence in my life. I want to help you so that you no longer show sad expressions.

So, Kuang San, lend me your strength. In exchange, when you need me, no matter when and where, I will definitely rush to your side and appear like a shining hero."

"..."

Kuang San was slightly stunned, but quickly returned to normal.

"Haha, Shiori-san has really become eloquent. I am a little moved. Okay, I promise you, but you must pay for the time required to activate the Twelve Bullets yourself."

"of course."

Nodding to Kurumi, Shiori opened his arms towards her, indicating that she could start at any time.

Kurumi did not delay either, her shadow stretched out and spread to Shiori's feet. Shiori did not feel the strong feeling of her life being drained as when she first met Kurumi. She lowered her head and saw that the Flame Sword Liehuo was emitting a faint light, as if sharing the price with its master.

Not long after, seeing that the time had been absorbed almost completely, a huge golden clock appeared behind her. At the 12 position, black and red energy emerged and gathered in the flintlock in Kurumi's hand.

"Yud Bet!"

The bullet fired and hit Shiori directly in the chest, but Shiori did not show any fear. Instead, he smiled at Kurumi.

"I'll be back soon. Also, whether it's this time or that time with Miku, thank you for your help all the time, Kurumi."

At the last moment before Shiori disappeared from her sight, her words were clearly heard by Kurumi.

What Shiori didn't see was that the dignified smile that Kurumi had always maintained like a young lady turned a little red at that moment.

"Really? Shiori-san has grown into an incredible demon girl. It must be Mr. Stellius who led her astray."

But before she could sigh for long, a dark figure appeared in the sky above Tiangong City. Black energy beams poured down like raindrops and wreaked havoc in the deserted Tiangong City.

Looking at the silhouette of the girl wrapped in darkness, although her facial features and body were shrouded in mist, Kurumi and the people of Ratatosk still recognized each other's identity.

Tobiichi Origami, it could not be anyone else but her.

"Did Shiori fail?"

In Ratatoskr's command room, Kotori said anxiously, but Murasame Reine gave a different opinion.

Looking at the origami which only had a silhouette and flashing mosaics from time to time, Ling Yin spoke.

"Tobiichi Origami's current state is very unstable, and her past has not been completely determined. Otherwise, she should be appearing in her reversed form now."

……

His consciousness wandered in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, and when Shiori woke up again, he had arrived in Amamiya City five years ago.

Having made sufficient preparations with the help of Ratatoskr and Niya, Shiori rushed to the park where Kotori turned into an elf.

If there was a place Origami had to go to when she returned to five years ago, then the park where the only two elves other than herself were present would definitely be her destination.

Sure enough, when she arrived, the fire was already started.

In the sky, Origami, dressed in a pure white wedding dress, is confronting a phantom wrapped in mosaic.

This is different from the situation 5 years later where Origami, even with the latest equipment from DEM, was unable to touch the opponent's clothes.

Perhaps it was because the elf-like Origami gained unimaginable power, or perhaps it was because Phantom had no intention of fighting at all, but looking at the results, the scene actually showed that Origami suppressed Phantom.

Of course, Shiori could see that Origami's advantage was gained by her disregarding her physical limits and abandoning her calmness to charge forward. Now Origami only had hatred for the phantom in her eyes, and she didn't care at all that a large number of attacks fell on the surrounding buildings, causing huge damage.

"This can't go on like this."

Looking at Origami's crazy appearance, Shiori realized that she could no longer stand idly by and she had to stop her from going berserk.

"Dragon of Courage! There was once a mythical beast that gained great power to destroy everything!"

The long and heavy roll call attracted the attention of everyone present. The most shocking thing was that there was no phantom related to the video memory. In her eyes, the grown-up Shiori, who was supposed to exist in the future, not only appeared here, but also took out some strange props whose powerful power even she could feel. However, what surprised her even more was yet to come.

Shiori put the Dragon of Courage into the rightmost position of the drive and then shouted that sentence.

"Transform!"

"Draw the sword with blazing fire! Dragon of courage! Book of blazing fire! When the Dragon of courage and the Blazing Sword of Fire intersect, the True Crimson Sword will pierce through all evil!"

The red swordsman replaced Shizhi in the phantom's eyes. She took a picture of the page of "Dragon of Courage". A red dragon emerged from the book and carried its master towards the battlefield of the two elves.

"???"

What happened? What happened?

For a moment, the pretty face under the phantom mosaic showed an extremely confused expression.

075: Guardian

Regardless of Phantom's confused expression, like a mother who suddenly found out that her son who had been working away from home for a long time was actually an alien, Shiori, who had successfully transformed into a holy sword, had already arrived in front of the two elves and stood between them.

"Stop it, Origami. All we need to do here is get rid of the phantom. I will go with you to protect your parents until this fire is over."

"Shiori..."

Looking at the important person in front of him who was both familiar and unfamiliar, a glimmer of clarity flashed in Origami's crazy eyes, but was quickly swallowed up by anger.

"No, no one can guarantee that Phantom won't do something like that in the future. I have to kill her here!"

The 'Angel of Extinction' composed of countless wings of light spread out from behind Origami, blocking Phantom Liu's escape route and began to accumulate power.

"Angel of Extinction, Shemesh!"

The end of the Wing of Light flashed a dazzling light, and along with Origami's instructions, the light split into countless light bullets that indiscriminately swept towards the target, and some stray bullets were even fired directly towards the house below.

Knowing the possible consequences of the opponent's indiscriminate attack, Shizhi would naturally not sit idly by and wait for death. She quickly scanned the fantasy driving book "Jack and the Beanstalk".

"Jack and the pea-tree! Uh-huh! Learn a flash!"

The green slash flew out and hit the open space on the ground before the light bullet hit the ground. Several towering trees rose from the ground, dividing the battlefield into two parts, and blocking most of the light bullets attacking the ground.

The clever Phantom also took this opportunity to hide in the branches of the pea tree and avoided Origami's attack.

Seeing this, Origami, who was already furious, had red eyes. She no longer had the energy to think about the meaning of Shiori's behavior.

The duration of the Twelve Bullets was not infinite. This was her closest chance to save her parents, and she didn't want to wait for the next chance which might not exist.

"Since you insist on protecting this spirit, you are my enemy, Shiori! I will break your arms and legs before I kill the phantom!"

"Wait, that's not the case, Origami, let me explain..."

"No point in talking any more! The Angel of Extinction, Artelif!"

The feathers of light gathered in front of Origami, forming the shape of a crown. The golden light spots continued to gather and finally turned into a cannonball that was as powerful as Tohka's "Final Sword" and shot towards Shiori.

"Well!"

Realizing that something was wrong, Shiori immediately launched a special move to try to offset the opponent's attack, but the power in the Ichibo state was not enough for an elf like Origami who specialized in destruction.

The flaming slash was instantly shattered by the light cannon, and Shizhi was hit head-on by the weakened light cannon. He flew backwards and hit the pea tree below.

Fortunately, the pea tree acted as a buffer. Although Shiori was beaten and his transformation was cancelled, he did not suffer fatal injuries. With the help of Kotori's healing flame ability, he quickly recovered.

"How ruthless, Origami."

Lying on the ground in a spread-eagle position, Shiori looked at the pea tree, which turned into a green light and slowly dissipated due to the loss of power, and gave a bitter smile, but she had no intention of giving up. She endured the pain and tried to sit up, preparing to transform into Sansho and fly up again.

But fate seemed to be playing a joke on her. A timid voice sounded behind her.

"Big sis, are you okay?"

"Varied!?"

The familiar and childish voice made her immediately realize the identity of the person who spoke. Shizhi turned around suddenly and saw a little loli with short white hair in the arms of a man and a woman, looking at this side worriedly. The distance between the four people was less than 4 meters, which made Shizhi's inner alarm bells ring.

She immediately looked up at the sky, knowing that Shiori had the Healing Flame, and Origami's second blast crown was ready to go, probably intending to knock Shiori unconscious with a powerful attack.
