Although she felt that Tohka seemed to have some misunderstandings about her in the end, she did not realize the seriousness of the problem due to the lack of information. She did not know that an atmosphere of suspicion had already formed in the Sword of Truth.

She naively thought that this was just a small matter and that she could resolve the misunderstanding by simply finding Tohka to explain the motives behind her previous behavior. The most important thing right now was to immediately find the snow monster Megiddo and rescue editor-in-chief Kusakabe.

Little did they know that this belated explanation might lead to a big mistake.

"Shiori-chan, what's going on? Did you find Editor-in-Chief Kusakabe?"

About half an hour later, after completing the evacuation of nearby people, Yoshino found Shiori and anxiously asked her about the situation.

"Ah, I found it..."

"novelist!"

The crisp voice of a girl interrupted Shiori who was about to share information with Yoshino. The two looked back and saw that the four familiar swordsmen from the North District had arrived in front of them without them knowing when.

"I've heard about it."

"Yeah, that's great."

Shiori, who thought Nanashi was talking about the snow monster Megiddo, showed a happy expression, but the four swordsmen who were completely on different channels couldn't help but frowned when they saw Shiori's happy expression.

Nanashi originally wanted to ask clearly, but considering Shiori's current precarious position in the Sword of Truth, she still hoped that she could meet with the Lord of Truth first. With the endorsement of the Lord of Truth, Alan and Hengjian would not be able to gossip about her.

"Well, please come with me to the Sword of Truth's Southern District Base. The Lord of Truth wants to see you, novelist."

"Eh? Why?"

Hearing that they were going to take her to the South District Base at this time, the smile on Shiori's face faded. She was a little worried that if this period of time was delayed, Miss Kusakabe's situation would become more dangerous.

But in the eyes of the four swordsmen, Shiori's hesitation made her seem even more suspicious.

Tohka, who was feeling pent up in her heart, spoke out in an irritated tone.

"Why not, Miss Shiori? As a swordsman of the Sword of Truth, your first duty is to obey the orders of the Lord."

As she said this, she took two steps forward and tried to grab Shiori's hand and take her away by force, but she failed to pull the latter.

"Wait a minute, Tohka-chan, I have more important things to do right now, I will definitely..."

"How could there be anything more important than meeting the Holy Lord!"

Shiori's non-cooperation ignited the nameless fire in Tohka's heart. She looked up and glared at Shiori, and even stopped using the honorific she had always used.

"Shiori, stop being so willful. Allen is suspecting that you will betray the Sword of Truth just like Wang Jian. Only the Lord can endorse you."

"Alan?"

The cold silver-haired woman appeared in Shiori's mind, and a faint sense of disobedience spread in her heart.

She had thought that Tohka's appearance was a coincidence. Everything in the North District had been semi-paralyzed after the disappearance of equipment Sophia. Theoretically, it should no longer be possible to detect the appearance of Megiddo as soon as possible like before.

"Speaking of which, Tohka-chan, why did you appear there before? Who called you over?"

"It's Miss Allen. What's wrong?"

A trace of doubt arose in his heart, and at this moment Shiori thought of the last words that Sister Kotori said to him.

——Be sure to be careful of the enemies in the Sword of Truth.

His thinking expanded and Shizhi thought of a possibility.

"I know! Eren is the enemy in the Sword of Truth that Kotori-san mentioned!"

She blurted out the thought subconsciously, but Shiori didn't realize that this was the worst thing she could do.

Almost at the moment she said this, the atmosphere among everyone present dropped to freezing point.

"Do you know what you are talking about, Swordsman of Fire?"

Yakushi glared at Shiori, his hands already on the twin wind swords, Cuifeng, behind his back.

"Hey?"

Shiori looked up with some confusion, and found that the swordsmen were looking at him as if he were an enemy.

This is no wonder. If we use an appropriate metaphor to describe Shiori's behavior, it is as outrageous as a trainee policeman who, after listening to a criminal's sweet talk, loudly said in front of other veteran policemen that the deputy chief of the police station was a murderer. This criminal even killed a colleague of the veteran police officers with his own hands not long ago.

"Have you really been bewitched by the Dark Sword Yue Ya, Gokawa Shiori?"

Miku frowned and drew out the sound gun sword Xiyin from her waist and was completely on alert. There was no way. Shiori's series of actions and confusing remarks really made it difficult for people to trust her anymore.

And Shizhi was completely unable to keep up with the pace of the swordsmen due to the information asymmetry.

"Wait, what are you talking about? I'm totally confused..."

"enough!"

Slamming the big sword at his waist to the ground, Nanashi warned Shiori for the last time with some impatience.

"You must come back to the South District Base with me right now and explain everything clearly. This is not a request but an order, Novelist!"

"Wait a minute, I still have to go find the Megiddo who escaped earlier. This matter is really urgent. I will definitely..."

"I said it was an order."

"Xuanwu Myth!"

"Varied!?"

Nanashi's decisive action of taking out the book surprised Shiori and Yoshino, and as if a chain reaction had occurred, the remaining three swordsmen also took out their own fantasy driving books.

"Hansenertz and Gretel!" "Sarutobi Ninja Legend!" "Lion War Plans!"

"I'm sorry, Novelist, since you won't cooperate, we have no choice but to use force to take you back. Transform."

Four colored swordsmen, earth, sound, wind, and water, appeared in front of Shiori, but this time they pointed their swords at him.

Shiori's mind went blank for a moment, and she instinctively transformed into her original form to deal with it, but she didn't know that her instinctive reaction completely ignited the hostility of the swordsmen.

"Shiori, there really is something wrong with you."

Tohka rushed forward and slashed at Shiori with her sword, and a civil war between swordsmen broke out amid misunderstanding. 】

Gundaruf: Why didn't Shiori explain why he was protecting Megiddo and why he couldn't leave for the time being? It made me so anxious!

Energy conservationist: Because of the information asymmetry, Ms. Shiori did not realize the key to the matter at all. From her point of view, she just chatted with the friends who suddenly came to her house for a few words and they just took action directly. Anyone would be confused if it were her.

L: And even if they said that the snow monster Megiddo was transformed from a human, today's swordsmen would only regard it as Shiori's crazy talk. After all, the fact that a human turned into Megiddo is incredible in itself, and most people would not believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes.

Lord Xuefeng: Is there no other solution?

ZIO 2nd Generation: Everyone has lost their composure. It will be difficult unless something unexpected happens that attracts everyone’s attention.

096: Holy Sword of Light

[The water sword slashed out like a stream. Shiori, who was confused, could only react with difficulty. He rolled on the ground and barely avoided Tohka's sudden attack.

But before she could say anything to stop him, a green shuriken flew through the air, creating a spark on Shiori's arm and causing him to stagger.

The attacks of the local tyrant sword Gekido and the sound gun sword Xiyin followed closely, almost blocking all of Shizhi's escape routes. He could only raise his sword to try to block.

But Shiori in the first volume state is especially a match for the Seven Sins who are known for their strength, not to mention that there is also Miku fighting against her.

The strange force generated by the sword made Shiori, who was already unsteady on his feet, leave the ground with both feet and slam into the wall behind him. The tons of impact force of Kamen Rider directly shattered the wall, burying Shiori under the bricks and stones.

“Not good, not good, not good!”

Shion, who had been hiding aside and not saying a word the whole time, remembered being at a loss. In her opinion, the battle had started completely out of nowhere. Everyone came over aggressively and started fighting without even a few words.

"Cough cough!"

Standing up from the rubble, Shiori looked at the four approaching swordsmen.

"Wait a minute, you've been deceived. That Allen definitely has no good intentions."

"Enough! Shiori, everyone in the Sword of Truth is my family. Everyone is fighting to protect the world. Why would you rather listen to a traitor than go back with us?"

"This……"

Recalling how Kotori-sister looked before her death, Shiori showed a bitter expression.

"The last words from Kotori-sama, I don't think that's the expression a liar would have."

"Wang Jian killed Origami, wake up!"

Yakuya frowned beneath her mask. At this moment, she already believed that Shiori had been affected by the power of the Dark Sword Yue Ya.

"Since you are so stubborn, let me calm you down!"

"Sarutobi Ninja Legend! Ninja! Emerald Wind Speed ​​Reading Strike! Ninja~!"

Yakuya threw the holy sword in the form of shuriken again. This time the attack was quite serious, and he almost wanted to knock Shiori unconscious.

Knowing this, Shiori wanted to dodge, but barriers of rock and music appeared on both sides of her almost at the same time, blocking her direction of escape.

Now all that's left is to withstand the attack or...

He also used his special move to push back Yakushi's special move.

Thinking of this, Shiori had the urge to insert the Flame Sword Rehuo into the driver, but he forced himself to hold back the next second.

No, I didn't gain strength to fight my friends with swords.

In the end, Shiori just held his sword horizontally at the critical moment to take the fatal blow. Yakuya's serious attack was obviously far beyond the previous small-scale fights.

Shizhi only felt that his palms were numb from the shock, and the flaming sword Liehuo almost slipped out of his hand. He even flew backwards and fell far away, leaving cracks on the ground.

"Huh, you actually accepted it? You're growing fast. Alright, stop messing around. Give us the Flame Sword Liehuo and the Fantasy Driving Book first. We'll return them to you after we prove your innocence."

Miku walked forward and wanted to take away Shiori's driver and holy sword, but saw Shiori standing up with the flaming sword Reihuo supporting his body.

Shiori felt dizzy at the moment, but now she had figured it out clearly that she must not go to the South Base. Alan went to such great lengths to frame her and even let the swordsmen capture her, it was obvious that he had some purpose.

She had to figure everything out, or something bad would happen, just like what happened 15 years ago.

"I really can't go to the South District Base. Alan must have some unspeakable secret."

"Why won't you listen to us? Have you really betrayed us?"

Tohka couldn't stand it any longer, so she pushed Miku away and raised her sword to chop her down.

Yoshino, who was standing by, finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out, trying to stop Tohka.

But before she arrived, a white hand blocked Tohka's attack, and the girl's clear and lovely voice reached everyone's ears.

"That won't do. The power of the Holy Sword is to protect the world, not to cause internal friction between you."
