1. The school was half destroyed, so we started summer break early.

2. Most of the students have gone back home, and it's quiet in the dorms.

3. I don't have anything to do at home, so I decided to stay here.

4. But it turns out, there's nothing to do here, either.

5. Then I got a letter from Alpha.

6. So the time has come to settle old accounts.

7. It is the final resting place of ancient memories:

8. the Sacred Land, Lindwurm.

26. Boss...

27. Another day...

28. another beautiful me!

29. Perfection!

30. When I met Lord Shadow,

31. I gained the power to fight against two fates.

32. What is that?

33. This is the power to change your fate.

34. When you can change your form at will,

35. you can change a fate doomed to defeat into victory.

36. Fate...

37. Change your fate,

38. and take hold of the truth that lurks in the shadows of this world.

39. Take hold...

40. of the truth!

41. My lord...

42. I swear to you, I will claim victory...

43. over nature!

44. Crimson eyes that sparkle brighter than the moon in the heavens,

45. supple locks whose luster put the finest silk to shame...

46. The words that flow from his mouth cause even the demons to cower in fear.

47. A man clad in virile yet beautiful purest black.

48. I see.

49. You, with your muscles finely sculpted into the golden ratio,

50. and your visage beautified into sublime perfection...

51. You're the stray dog that's been snapping at the Cult as of late.

52. You would call Lord Shadow a stray dog?

53. My name is Shadow,

54. he who lurks in the shadows, hunts the shadows,

55. and will lead that charming young elf to her salvation.

56. Lord Shadow!

57. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, my charming young elf.

58. Now that I'm here, I will...

59. I will...

60. No good!

61. It's just a little too overly dramatic.

62. Is that any excuse to use such a shoddy character as a female lead?

63. Maybe I should go outside and get some fresh air.

64. Where did I leave my clothes?

65. Good morning, Beta.

66. Good morning, Epsilon.

67. It might be my imagination...

68. but I feel as if Lord Shadow has been looking my way more frequently of late.

69. I have felt the intense passion of his gaze right here.

70. That can't be right!

71. It must be some mistake!

72. Oh, it's no mistake.

73. Surely you've noticed it yourself, Beta.

74. You and I are much more aware of those sorts of glances, after all.

75. That's true...

76. But is right for me, insignificant little me,

77. to charm our eminent master so?

78. You've felt the lord's impassioned gaze yourself, haven't you, Beta?

79. After all, your boobs are far larger than my meager bust.

80. N-no, I...

81. What's this? Have you not felt his gaze?

82. How cute!

83. What are you two doing, if I may ask?

84. Oh, Nu! Good morning!

85. Is something the matter?

86. We've received a directive from Lady Alpha.

87. This is a very successful business, I see.

88. Everyone in the capital is talking about this place.

89. They have everything, and it's all the best quality.

90. I only came to help you shop for your trip.

91. But I see, this is a fascinating place.

92. Isn't it?

93. And you really should be aware of the trends in the Royal Capital.

94. You can follow the trends if you want, but don't forget why you're here.

95. You are heading off to the Sacred Land as a special guest for the Goddess's Trial.

96. I know, I know.

97. But it's normal for the special guests to chat with the archbishop, remember?

98. I can use that opportunity to look into the dark rumors about corruption and missing orphans.

99. And since I'm just a helpless little princess, no one will suspect a thing.

100. It's true that people are less guarded around you than around me.

101. Maybe I shouldn't have told you about the investigation after all.

102. Excuse me.

103. I'm terribly sorry I didn't pay my respects sooner.

104. I am the president of this humble establishment.

105. My name is Luna.

106. It's delicious!

107. The citrus one is good, too.

108. It is an unusual flavor.

109. I'll take some.

110. Send them to my dorm, please.

111. Thank you for your continued patronage.

112. If you have any more new products, choose some for me.

113. Of course, Your Highness.

114. Alexia...

115. We came here to prepare for your trip.

116. I know, I know.

117. You'll be traveling?

118. To the Sacred Land.

119. My, my, my.

120. Then allow me to select some items that you may need.

121. Thank you.

122. And, I won't be needing it for my trip,

123. but can I ask you to show me some articles of clothing that you would recommend?

124. If you're looking for party dresses, we already ordered you several.

125. Oh, nothing like that.

126. I want something more for, you know, everyday wear,

127. more casual.

128. As a gift for a friend?

129. Um, not exactly a gift...

130. But it's not exactly for me, either...

131. Then may I suggest something along these lines?

132. Th-th-those...

133. Those are...

134. Women's undergarments.

135. They're called thongs.

136. "Th-thongs"?

137. Um, I feel there's not enough fabric coverage,

138. and I can see through some of it!

139. I understand that this is very pleasing to the menfolk.

140. Menfolk?

141. Alexia, don't tell me you...

142. Iris...

143. I...

144. I am confident that I have finely shaped buttocks.

145. That is not the issue!

146. Unhand those panties!

147. Iris, I...

148. I am confident that I have finely shaped-

149. You already said that!

150. You may try them on if you like.

151. I'd love to.

152. You will not!

153. You're plotting to put them on, then take advantage of the confusion to buy them!

154. Princess Iris,

155. I believe you've been given the wrong impression.

156. A thong is an undergarment that was made for women.

157. That's not what you said a minute ago!

158. I happen to be wearing one right now.

159. Take a look.

160. As you can see, even under a dress of such thin fabric, there's no panty-line visible.

161. That's amazing!

162. Iris, you have to see this!

163. No, thank you!

164. I'll just step into the dressing room.

165. Alexia?

166. Hold it right there, Alexia!

167. Now, see here!

168. You need to take off your shoes, and fold your clothes...

169. So nice to the touch.

170. Now how does it feel to wear it?

171. Alexia!

172. Those undergarments are completely see-through!

173. They cover just barely enough.

174. That is not enough!

175. It is clearly revealing your...

176. Anyway, no! You can't have them!

177. I won't allow it!

178. And you won't change your mind?

179. I will not change my mind!

180. I see.

181. But, Iris...

182. Alexia?

183. Iris...

184. I refuse to be swayed any longer by words I don't need to hear.

185. I want to value the words of those who will acknowledge me

186. despite my worthless insignificance.

187. But that's...

188. If you refuse to allow me a thong, Iris, then I will yield.

189. I very much want to wear a thong to win him...

190. I mean, I have a strong personal desire to wear a thong, but I will yield.

191. So please answer me this, Iris.

192. Do thongs really deserve your absolute and unwavering rejection?

193. Iris?

194. I wouldn't...

195. necessarily say "absolute"...

196. Then I'll take them!

197. I'd like to buy this!

198. And a few of the same in different patterns.

199. Oh, and that g-string...

200. Can I try that on?

201. Well...

202. Oh, well.

203. This way's no good, either!

204. We have no choice! Break it down!

205. Stop the fire from spreading!

206. Be smart about it!

207. If it goes underground,

208. I found another one! it will do even more damage!

209. These wounds are deep! Get him to the arena infirmary!

210. It's in a separate building; the fire won't reach it!

211. Cid Kagenou!

212. I'm dead.

213. Thank heavens.

214. I'm so glad you're alive!

215. Your unwavering effort and love must have produced a miracle!

216. I accept all of your feelings for me.

217. You gave me my life.

218. So now, I give you my heart.

219. In that moment, I felt the hand of destiny.

220. My dear Cid, you are the one.

221. Yeah...

222. I'm gonna want some space.

223. We won't be arriving in the Sacred Land for two days,

224. so let's relax and get plenty of rest in the meantime.

225. Good idea.

226. The Sacred Land is so close,

227. I could just wait until nightfall, sprint at full speed, and I'd be right there.

228. My idea to take an economy class seat in the train like a proper background character was a mistake.

229. Cid?

230. It's nothing.

231. She happened to find me at the station.

232. She said if I was going to the Sacred Land, we should go together,

233. and wouldn't take no for an answer.

234. There you are.

235. Thanks.

236. I assume you're going for the Goddess's Trial as well, Cid?

237. Uh, yeah.

238. Probably.

239. I figure that's probably what Alpha summoned me for.

240. I've seen the real you, Cid.

241. I know how very brave you are.

242. I am quite certain that our path together will be a thorny one.

243. No one will give us their blessing, or approve of our union.

244. The most popular religion in this world is the Divine Teachings.

245. It's a faith that worships the sacred precepts of the goddess Beatrix.

246. But it is said that after the Goddess granted the legendary heroes her powers,

247. they built up wealth from humble beginnings and married the princesses of great kingdoms.

248. So I believe that at the end of every thorny path, there awaits a blessed and happy future.

249. If you can make it through the Goddess's Trial,

250. I will be able to speak to my father of a brave young man.

251. One of the holy sites in these Divine Teachings is where we're headed now: Lindwurm.

252. It is where the Goddess condescended to alight upon the earth,

253. to grant power to three heroes.

254. Supposedly.

255. So let us follow this thorny path and overcome its obstacles together, one step at a time.

256. Thus our love will be bound ever more tightly.

257. This is that thing.

258. We can't speak of this to anyone yet,

259. but let us do all that we can for our bright, happy future.

260. Love, happiness, the future...

261. It's such a typical cliché.

262. She's trying to convert me to her religion.

263. Yeah...

264. I'm gonna want some space.

265. Somehow evading her nonstop, two-day missionary efforts...

266. I finally arrived in the Sacred Land of Lindwurm.

267. Just then, a black rose shone in the night sky,

268. and its petals rained down upon the warriors.

269. The beautiful petals fluttered down

270. Why is every one of these a left arm? The beautiful petals fluttered down

271. Why is every one of these a left arm? and touched the warriors on their right hands.

272. Legend has it that

273. this is where the hero Olivier cut off the left arm of the demon Diablos so long ago.

274. Somewhere within the steep mountains surrounding the Sacred Land

275. are ruins known as the Sanctuary.

276. It is said that that is where they have sealed away the left arm of Diablos.

277. That's makes sense.

278. Hence the sword and left arm.

279. My favorite author Natsume is having a book signing!

280. I'm her biggest fan!

281. Natsume?

282. She's a popular novelist

283. known for her tremendous imagination and her fresh and original world building!

284. Romance, mystery, action, fairy tales...

285. She even writes literature in the classic style.

286. She's a master of every genre,

287. and her stories are so diverse it's like they're written by different people!

288. It's amazing!

289. Sounds like she covers everything. Almost like she's been rebor-

290. Uh, I mean...

291. Never mind, I didn't say anything.

292. The Midsummer Natsume Collection...

293. "I Am a Dragon,"

294. "Romeo e Julietta,"

295. "Asherella,"

296. "Little Crimson Riding Hood,"

297. "Star It's a Trap Wars,"

298. "One Purse,"

299. "Dragon Bowl,"

300. "Kage no Jitsuryo... ku..."

301. Can't read it.

302. The plagiarism is so blatant, it's almost refreshing.

303. This can't be a coincidence.

304. There must be someone else who's been reincarnated from...

305. Guess I'm going to need to make sure.

306. What does she think she's doing?

307. Here, hand me your book.

308. How's business?

309. Can't complain.

310. I'm getting my name out there. People know who I am.

311. And it's all thanks to your wisdom, my lord.

312. First Gamma, and now her?

313. Beta told me she likes literature, so I told her a few stories from my past life.

314. The idea was that she could use them as inspiration to come up with a cool story.

315. That's what I was thinking when I told her.

316. I didn't expect her to steal them wholesale.

317. Here you are.

318. It contains all the details of the mission.

319. Beta, Beta, Beta, I'm disappointed in you.

320. I didn't know you were a fan of Natsume's work, too.

321. No, I just...

322. Look at this!

323. She personalized it with my name!

324. Signing autographs? Has she absolutely no shame?

325. Did you get your autograph personalized, too?

326. Oh, now that you mention it...

327. Are those ancient letters?

328. Looks like, yeah.

329. Can you read them?

330. Ancient writing isn't a required course,

331. so I only know the very basics.

332. And these look like they're written in extreme shorthand.

333. So I'm not sure if the meaning would come across, even if I could read all of those letters.

334. Uh-huh...

335. But why would she write in the ancient alphabet?

336. Why would she...

337. Well, because it's cool, obviously.

338. It's cool?

339. Yeah! It's very cool.

340. Very cool...

341. I didn't realize that's the kind of thing men were into.

342. We want to know the truth...

343. Great Hero Olivier.

344. What did you really do at the place they call the Sanctuary?

345. The more we unravel the threads of history's darkness,

346. the more fact mingles with fiction.

347. Archbishop Drake...

348. what were you hiding?

349. If you had been able to speak, I would have loved to hear your answers.

350. Who killed you?

351. Would they dispose of a man even of your high status?

352. Tomorrow, we wait for the moment that the door is opened.

353. Your Grace! Archbishop Drake!

354. Wh-what sacrilege!

355. Lock down the cathedral!

356. Don't let the murderer escape!

357. The bells ring out to announce the advent of chaos.

358. And I look down on the proceedings from my high vantage point.

359. Yes, I like it.

360. I won't fault you for making that choice,

361. but it won't change the ultimate outcome.

362. You hurled magically imbued sword strikes at your victim.

363. I should expect nothing less of Epsilon the Precise.

364. I'm honored.

365. I got Alpha's letter...

366. I mean, the mission...

367. Yes, the mission, how is it going?

368. The target has been eliminated by the Cult's executioner.

369. We managed to take out his henchmen,

370. but the executioner himself has gone into hiding.

371. An executioner?

372. Cool...

373. We are moving on to Plan B.

374. So cool!

375. Very well, but you know what that means.

376. We are prepared for the consequences.

377. I will proceed with my own plans.

378. Do not fail me.

379. Yes, my lord.

380. Epsilon is a very proud woman.

381. I can tell by the amount of slime she's piled onto herself.
