It was not the type of spirit that an ordinary Spirit Contractor could control alone. Controlling such spirits requires special training as a team.
Kaizo finally came to his senses and said, "So. Rupture Division also serves as a team to control that military spirit."
"That's right. They are a team prepared to use a tool that is me. Only with the presence of the Rupture Division could the demon sealing eye be operated."
(In other words, Karmila alone basically could not bring out spirit power.)
"Having a spirit with holy attributes is true, but I have no way to use that power."
"So by fraud, you mean this?"
Allying with Karmila who employs a holy spirit to facilitate the battle against Nephesis Loran, it was the benefit he brought up during the negotiations for the alliance.
But if the spirit cannot be used, then Kaizo and his team's strategy must be fundamentally changed. Even so, they had to change it suddenly.
"I'm sorry. I have to win this Sword Style Festival no matter what. Being raised as a tool, that's my mission."
Although Rupture Division collapsed and almost lost everything, he was still struggling to survive. Because the value of Karmila Freya's life lies only in that.
"It's okay. After all, it's your achievement." Kaizo gently placed his hand on Karmila's head.
"Kaizo?"
"This alliance is a victory that you won with your own hands, Karmila. Be proud of yourself," gently, she stroked her dark brown hair.
"Karmila, have you heard of the Instructional School?" Suddenly, Kaizo brought up such a topic.
"There's somewhere in the Eldant Empire, a secret organization to resurrect assassins."
"Yes, that's where I come from."
Karmila's eyes widened in surprise.
"I'm just like you, Karmila. Raised as a tool of murder since childhood."
"However, you don't look like that."
"Because there's a girl who's helping me restore the human heart." Kaizo gently pulled his hand from Karmila's head.
Karmila lowered her head as if thinking of something. Immediately after, he slowly looked up, "Overnight's news."
"Hmm?"
"Continuing from last night's story, I want to hear it."
"Ah, sure." Kaizo remembered it and nodded.
It was a fairy tale he heard from Alicia when he was young. In an open-air bath where one could hear the sound of the stream flowing, Kaizo continued the story he had told the night before.
"Silv."
(Is there something really funny? Karmila once again desperately held back a laugh. That's fine, as long as he's happy.)
"You are so much sweeter when you smile."
Kaizo's half-joking comment made Karmila slightly blush, "A-what are you talking about!?"
"Because you can laugh like this, you're no longer just a tool."
The lost items must be taken back. As long as he has someone next to him like Alicia to Kaizo.
Staring at the dark-covered night sky, Kaizo muttered to himself, (Alicia, even now, I am still waiting for you to continue that bedtime story.)
At this moment, a sharp pain was felt in the spirit seal of his left hand. The intense pain was like a scorching fire, making Kaizo's face distorted.
"Kaizo?"
"The man has arrived."

POV: Alicia

In the silent forest, a black-winged angel appeared.
"What a safe fortress your team has built here. As expected of Her Imperial Princess Royal Highness, the former heir to the throne." Alicia shrugged and pouted her adorable lips.
Perhaps as a counterattack against those with the attribute of darkness, there seemed to be many holy barriers. To him it was like the gates of hell. But that didn't stop him.
"I'm so sorry, but I had to break through by force."
As Alicia giggled, a huge figure emerged from the depths of the forest. Emitting an aura of ominous calamity from all directions, the black knight came out, Nephesis Loran.
"Then, let's start with the real sword style, Kaizo."
With a loud roar, Nephesis Loran tore through the barrier using claw-like gloves.

POV: Kirigaya Kaizo
_____________________________________
The spirits inhabiting the forest started to stir up a commotion once they sensed the presence of the intruder.
"Kaizo?"
"The man has arrived." Kaizo answered briefly as Karmila frowned.
As if teasing Kaizo, the spirit seal on his left hand pulsed. The identity of the visitor is not to be guessed. Kaizo was sure it was the same as what he was thinking and feeling right now.
"Karmila, help me and go to Victoria and the others' place," said like that, Kaizo quickly put on her uniform and picked up the sleeping Demon Slayer.
"What about you, Kaizo?"
"The only target is me. I have to stop them here."
"You fought Nephesis Loran alone?"
"Hurry up and go!"
Karmila nodded and ran towards the camp.
Seeing him off, Kaizo muttered, "This thing is truly an incredible monster," by wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
He could feel the aura of disaster approaching from the depths of the forest. He also must have known that Kaizo was here. Immediately, a roar that seemed to shake the earth sounded loud.
(That's here!)
Kaizo entered the Demon Slayer with divine power. Shining brightly with a silver-white luster, the Rune Nyx dispelled the darkness of the night.
Tearing up the tree wall in the street, the monster appeared before Kaizo. The Elementalist who was fully wearing jet black armor, Nephesis Loran.
"I'm so happy, Kaizo. Are you waiting for me alone?"
Those beautiful twilight colored eyes. Her dark dress and beautiful black hair fluttered in the wind. Unfortunately, he hasn't changed at all.
He still maintained the same appearance as before, when their hearts still understood each other. Despite the fact that Kaizo itself has changed a lot.
"Allen..."
Kaizo forgets everything in an instant, fascinated by her beautiful appearance. If he were to extend his hand now, would his past be back? Such a foolish desire flashed through his mind.
"Nephesis Loran is the last opponent I have prepared for you." He smiled lightly.
"Alright, then take out your best sword style and do your best, Kaizo."
Kaizo held the Demon Slayer with both hands and was wary of Nephesis Loran.
(How did he become like this now? It was impossible to contact him with words. Only through sword style could his heart be touched!)
* ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛉ ᛏ ᛒ ᛗ ᛜ ᛟ ᛈ ᛋ ᛏᛒ ᛖᚠ ᚢ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱᚲ ᚹ ᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛒ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛟ ᛗ ᛚᛜ ᛞ ᛟ *
"From distant lands I have brought endless darkness, to bestow upon you eternal punishment."
Alicia's adorable lips chanted tongues. His figure disappeared as if it melted into the darkness. Instantly, a jet-black demon sword appeared in Nephesis Loran's hands.
It was a huge sword that reminded him of the cataclysmic black flame. Although there was a small difference, it was indeed the same weapon that Kaizo used three years ago.
【 Elemental Void Sword 】
Among the dark elemental aero, it was undoubtedly a demonic sword of the strongest class. However, the current elemental aero Kaizo was also not easy to give up.
Although incomplete, Nyx's rank as a saint-type spirit should not be inferior to Alicia in significant numbers. It almost equalled him.
"Let's go, Nyx!"
The Demon Slayer Sword shone with a silver-white brilliance.
