"You're starting to falter right? Are you going to slash me mentally like that?"
- -

"I agree"
A voice appeared from under Alice, it was Count Bryan who was stepped on by Alice. Bryan grabbed Alice's leg.
"Lion, Peace Alliance, lively as jewels, must be tougher than it looks"
"This is a gift from our country, the lion was designed by the great sculptor Geraldo Abane"
"It's just a pretty design"
"Do you know what he wanted to say, Master Alice?"
"I'm not interested"
"Freedom, to show that the Peace Alliance wishes to survive as a neutral nation between the empires, our Knight Order's armor and war helmets were made to show how beautiful the Goddess of freedom, which the country has bestowed upon me is
...huff...huft... THE SPIRIT OF FREEDOM THAT NEVER ENDS!!"
Alice just smirked at that statement.
"...That, that freedom will disappear in an instant, I think"
"Huft....Huft...Huft...For the sake of the Peace Alliance's freedom "
"?"
"TO THE FREEDOM OF THE PEACE ALLIANCE! THE 8TH AMPHELION TROOP! SHOW THE FIRE OF YOUR SPIRIT! FOR THE FREEDOM OF THE PEACE ALLIANCE—"
Count Bryan's screams disappeared, and his head fell off from Alice's attack, Alice who couldn't stand the noise immediately cut off the head of Count Bryan who was below her.
(Even though my life ends here)
(My spirit will stay here)
(shining as bright as a diamond)
(Forever will scream freedom)
"How stupid—"
Mellfisa who had recovered attacked Alice from behind.
"Tch! (The wound has healed!)"
Mellfisa's sword aura grew denser, indicating that the sword was thirsting for its prey.
"Some of the great imperial commanders of Inarcia and the captains of the Knight Order of the Ledia Palace, I Mellfisa De Venus Von Kanteroma, will reverently shout, FOR THE FREEDOM OF THE PEACE ALLIANCE"
Mellfisa raised her sword as high as possible, restoring the morale and morale of the Peace Alliance troops.
All the Peace Alliance and Inarcia troops shouted.
"BY THE ALLIANCE OF PEACE!!"
Alice on the other hand became annoyed.
"(Tch! she took advantage of her ally's death, you cunning granny witch...!)"
Mellfisa smiled evilly seeing the current situation.
"(The fate of war has turned around!)"

"Prepare FORMATION!"
Crimson, Aizen against Antigone, Nein.
"Don't worry! IF THEY PASS BY US NOW, THE CITY OF CORNELIA WILL BE IN DANGER!!"
"Argh!"
"?!!"
- -
- -
Alice clashed swords with Melissa.
"How can you take advantage of the death of your ally, you deserve to be called a witch"
"thank you that's the best compliment I ever got, Azazel said, mana of the yellow diamond felt from your sword, I guess you researched Fiora's sword and came up with that thing huh?"
"Azazel? That's the name of your sword spirit? yes we can already mass produce a sword that is almost equivalent to the ancient sword, we named it Calamity Sword, no one loses to you, so what dirty tricks are you going to use now?"
Their two swords clashed, creating a powerful shockwave, blasting the surrounding rocks.
"I told you I'd win with overwhelming strength, don't get me wrong Alice, I'm stronger than you"
Mellfisa instantly slashed Alice's streak, but Alice was still able to hold on.
"(Her speed has suddenly increased! I can't keep up with her movements!)"
Mellfisa increased her speed and continued to attack Alice without stopping. But Alice didn't just stay still, she kept trying to block Mellfisa's attacks, but it was difficult because her attacks were so fast.
"!!"
"Just keep on blocking my attacks!"
Mellfisa uses Aura Sword to take down Alice.
"Keuk!"
"Take this"
Mellfisa's horizontal slash, the fallen Alice dodged her attack by jumping. Golden light shot out from Alice's sword while in midair.
"??!! Where's Blast?"
But just as Alice was about to launch her attack, Mellfisa ran away.
"!! She ran away?!"
One of the Black Cross Knights noticed Mellfisa running towards him.
"!! That's Mellfisa! she's coming for us!!"
Mellfisa continued to run toward Alice's troops with the intention of shielding them because the Mana Blast's destructive power was very strong.
"Idiot bastard, let's see if you're going to shoot at your subordinates"
Mellfisa Slashing the Black Cross troops easily killed them without the slightest difficulty, here else Alice hesitated to attack her.
"WHAT'S HAPPENING?! WHY MELLFISA HERE"
Aizen doesn't understand Mellfisa's presence
on the side where he fought.
"What is Alice doing?!"
Alice landed and canceled her Mana Blast, and chased after Mellfisa.
"Damn it! Dirty Bitch!"
The sword thrust by Alice, however, was easily dodged by her speed.
"You can't even copy Ancient Sword properly, what you call Calamity Sword, isn't mass production of ancient swords"
Slashing horizontally, making the two swords clash, Mellfisa tried to provoke Alice.
"It should be the Lite version of the Ancient Sword"
The Alice Zenith Sword was cracked by Mellfisa.
"Tch!"

After Count Bryan was killed by Alice.
"Don't be nervous, Orient"
Orient is Nein's aide.
"That's a difficult order to obey, Your Majesty. I have just witnessed the honorable death of a knight, I want to experience this feeling I haven't felt in a long time"
"...Okay, I won't stop you...he's coming, don't disturb the Orient"
The Crimson Army advanced toward Nein. But all of them being blown away in one hit, Nein jumps up and looks at Aizen.
"You're not running again, are you? Aizen"
"Come on Nein! I'll face you!"
First Wave, Aizen manages to push back Nein's attack.
"You look tired, Aizen. It's time you admit your mistakes. It's your mistakes that don't move other Masters"
"Another Master? Do you mean my son? I can't do it as a father"
The son in question is Albert, even though Madona is actually one step away from becoming a Master, he doesn't want to do it, it can be said, Even though Albert is higher in rank as a person who reaches the level of a Master, Madona can be matched by who has more understanding and experience.
"You failed as a knight, you don't deserve to lead this war Aizen!"
Nein was about to slash at Aizen, but his attack was once again blocked by Aizen.
"Yeah, I know. From the point of view of the Commander who didn't include his son, I've failed in the way of the Knights."
Aizen dodged Nein's attack, opened a gap, and attacked Nein's back.
"Urk!"
"I don't want any more war"
Aizen raised his sword and prepared to slash at Nein.
"I don't want to see the sadness and sobs of parents who lost their children, the reason I built the empire is so that we become a strong enough country that doesn't have to worry about things like this, instead of going to war like now—"
However, before he could finish his words with the sword above, Orient stabbed Aizen in the back.
"ORIENT!"
"Sorry, Your Majesty. This is my way as a Knight"
Aizen, mumbled something before he completely lost consciousness.
"...The way of the knight huh.... I have given up my whole life, it seems that I was rejected by that life, preferring to be a father...."
Aizen's face became wrinkled and aged which previously looked young like a man in his 30s.
Suddenly from the sky, a person came with a strong impact, shaking the entire battlefield. Aizen who was still breathing said the person's name.
"Fiora...I'm sorry, I leave everything to you"
