The segregation point of the era

On the roads within the forest at the outskirts of the imperial capital, 100,000 individuals have gathered.

Despite the number of people gathered, there was an overwhelming silence in the area.

In order to relay the situation to Yuuki via âtelepathyâ, the Black Knight Claude has silently left the area alone.

The vice commander of the mixed corps, he had came here in order to contact Yuuki. Thatâs why, nobody thought Claude taking action alone was strange.

Due to Yuukiâs âOverwriteâ ability, at one point Claude had his allegiance to Leon overwritten. However, thanks to Chloe currently Claude is restored back to normal.

But, after having his heart taken once, Claude has always been troubled about something in his mind.
TN Note:... the mental heart I guess?

What is the heart?

As expected, can the heart really be overwritten simply with the use of abilities?

Leon is a great man, whom he has taken care of since his youth. He was the strongest man Claude had even known; he was his target of worship and longing.

However, at this current situation he must continue to act loyal to Yuuki. If he starts to suspects and the fact his heart has been restored has leaked out things are going to take a turn for the worse.

After receiving treatment from Chloe, he has been training his heart with all he has, but he doesnât have any confidence in his training.

Although he sworn to endure the effects next time, itâs uncertain whether it would succeed. He feared the chances of having his heart overwritten again seemed higher.

Therefore, he must be careful.

In order not to arouse Yuukiâs suspicion, he must pay close attention to his own actions.

Leaving the group, he took a breather.

âUn. As long as I donât reject it from the bottom of my heart, it wouldnât be considered a wish.
So Yuukiâs first instruction of not bearing hostility towards him was excessive.â
ã¨ãè¤éãããªè¦ç¬ãæµ®ãã¹ã¦ã¯ãã¨ãçããã
Chloe answered with a wry smile, feeling complicated.

Isnât she a little too kind? So Claude thought, but this is the one thing he couldnât say out loud no matter what.

From his perspective, since she tried helping him nullifying the âDominance curseâ by rewinding time, this was something he couldnât possibly say.

Feeling a sense of disgust towards having his heart Dominated, Chloeâs probably thinking did he really retain his ego.

âYeah. Causing an upheaval in the imperial capital doesnât seem to be the purpose, so the vice commanded has intruded that civilian causalities are lowered to a minimum.
Iâll just take this chance and blend into the darkness.

Saying so, Claude used the clone jutsu âShadow Knightâ

A fake clone with an identical appearance, this is the âShadow Knightâ.

Itâs strength is about 30% of the original, and could continuously remain active for 12 hours. Since the consciousness is linked, itâs also great ability for spy activates, itâs perfect for this situation.

After confirming the âShadow Knightâ has returned to the group, Claude had bowed to Chloe.

Then, he began moving towards Leon immediately.

And so, the curtains of the tragedy that will soon be called the âCrimson Lotus Purgeâ has raised.

To begin with.

The âScorching Dragonâ Velgurindo had no interest in the game between Guy and Rudra.
ç´æ¥æ¦ããã©ã¡ããä¸ããæ±ºããã°è¯ããããèãã¦ããã
Just fight head on and decides who reigns at the top, she thought.

However, if she must give her honest opinion, it would be considerably difficult for Rudra and herself to best the duo of Guy and her sisterââ âWhite Ice Dragonâ Velzado.

Guyâs the strongest Demon Lord without a doubt, and her sisterâs compatibility with herself isnât any good.

If they battled, rather than one of them surviving in the end, they would both fall. In other words, either theyâd both be destroyed, or theyâre both unable to battle, one of only two results.

When Damrada was suppressing Yuukiâs subordinates, Yuuki declared heâd fight him himself.

There are several reasons for this.

Since he wasnât allowed to kill his opponent within the corpâs ranking battles, thus this skill was sealed.
Therefore, even thought he wasnât a vanguard, in terms of ability alone he was someone at the higher echelons.

ãããä¸æã§æ®ºãã¨ã¯ããã ã©ããä¾®ãã®ã¯å±éºã§ãã£ãã
To be able to kill someone with a single strike, if Damrada makes light of it things will get dangerous.

Another reason.

These words are certainly advices. However, killing intent directed here from Damrada can clearly be felt.

If heâs going to kill, heâll kill without giving any advice, this is the kind of man Damrada was.

Thatâs why, in order to feel Damradaâs thoughts, he himself wanted to become his foe.

In other words, from a human to a sage.
The result of evolution rather than natural birth, each sage is connected to the world.
Then, those who have awakened towards becoming a sage are said to be those who have been selected as qualified by the Emperor.
Emperor Rudra-sama, in order to allow his subordinates to awaken into a sage, had often waged war.
To those who have awakened as a sage, he bestows them the ultimate enchant ãAlternative ã.â
