CH 113

「! … T- That weapon is amazing… I mean, it looks great… It’s a work of art… right?」

Right now, I’m taking on the attack of Mariesta in front of me. Suzu can’t move because she’s trying to use the same method she used to defeat me when I went out of control during the event against Mariesta, and Yoichimaru-san is drinking a potion with his left hand, holding a bow with his left foot and right hand, and shooting arrows in order to unleash a powerful skill… I think Yoichimaru-san is the only one who can do something like that… ?

I said that I was taking on all of Mariesta’s attacks, but of course she was holding back, and although she said she was going to reduce her attacks by a factor of 100, I think she was probably holding back more than that. I can easily imagine what would happen to me if we fought normally, just like with the Shinigami.

『What is it? You’re thinking… Oh, I see. Well, if you’re getting that comfortable, I guess I can take it up another notch, huh?』

「Eh…」

───Hyu!!!!

─…

Fake blood runs down my cheek.

It’s early… But I can still see enough… I can still do it.

「… Gu… !」

───Hyuhyuhyuhyun… Bun!!

I avoided the four-step thrust and also avoided the large swinging attacks. Avoid avoid avoid avoid Avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid avoid─────

『I’m getting tired of this』

「u ……」

My stomach is pierced by Sicle Dent.

「Gafu……」

『Oops』

Mariesta catches me as I fall… It’s so nice and chilly…

『It was a little too strong…』

「L- Let go of Aya!」

「Relax. She’s not trying to kill her like that, right?」

『Fumu. So far this is just the prelude』

「「Eh?」」

I think I heard something disturbing, but it’s just my imagination… But still, I can hug you forever…

『What I am good at is singing. And it strengthens the allies who listen』

「Oi… That’s…」

『Hmm. It’s a unique skill that only I have, 《Chant of the Great Sea Emperor》』

「I knew it…」

What’s 《Chant of the Great Sea Emperor》… ? I mean, how come Yoichimaru-san knows about it… ? Well, for now, I’m still here───

「Aya?」

「Yes, sorry, I’m leaving」

『Muu… I thought Scarlet was going to spoil it for me…』

「T- That~. What kind of person was this Scarlet?」

… Okay. I managed to divert the conversation…

According to Mariesta, Scarlet was the next Dragon God, and she was a cool and beautiful girl. Even though she is the next in line, because she is close to the Dragon God, she is the most powerful of the group called the Seven Deadly Sins? It is said that she is the strongest dragon in the group.

Mariesta was jealous of her power and continued to study it all the time, but she was no match for Scarlet. However, Scarlet still recognized Mariesta as her rival and competed with her. However, a few hundred years ago, Mariesta’s happiness vanished because of Scarlet’s sudden disappearance.

『And then, Ayane appeared. She was you』

「「「……」」」

Hmmm… I don’t know why I’m that Scarlet…

「… Hey. I just remembered something」

「Hmm?」

「Wasn’t Scarlet the name of that dragon when Aya was out of control?」

「Well, I think it was…」

「Eh? Is that so?」

「That’s right. You didn’t know that, Aya. Right? I think… I think her name was Scarlet, the Flame Dragon King of Rage…」

『Ah! That’s it! That’s her name, Scarlet!』

I know now that I’m Scarlet, but… I don’t know how I became Scarlet… ?
