「With this, the purging of the “traitor” has been completed. If I present Von’s corpse as a souvenir, neither the Five Great Power which doubts me nor the Hold Knight’s Association will say a word of complaint. And peace will be restored back to the world.」
Rize clapped her hands and put on her usual soft smile.
「Are you in any position to call him a traitor, though?」
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClown said, smiling bitterly.
「Any fool who opposes Rize onee-san is a traitor.」
Deal, the loyal vassal, just nodded.
「Bacchus, you were truly strong… If only it weren’t for that disease…」
While looking at the now lifeless 100 Million Year Sakura, Rize spoke quite emotionally, which was unusual for her.
「Kuh, Clown bro, Clown bro…」
Seeing that scene, Deal pulled the hem of Clown’s clothes and whispered into his ears.
「Rize onee-san looks quite sad… Did she have some kind of relationship with Bacchus?」
「Hmm… I don’t know much about that, either. That person hardly talks about her past, after all.」
「I-Is that so…?」 ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N(o)vel(F)ire
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf there was some kind of relationship between Rize and Bacchus, if they had been old friends… Deal’s face turned deeply pale thinking that he might have done something outrageous.
「Ah, umm… onee-san? …D-Did I do something I wasn’t supposed to?」
「No, don’t worry about it. I simply had an inseparable relationship with that idiot.」
As Rize smiled tenderly, Deal felt fully relieved.
「Besides… Bacchus was the only person in the battle who noticed my presence. But that man was a total idiot through and through… He told me he didn’t need my assistance.」
During the fierce battle, Rize and Bacchus’ eyes met for less than a fraction of a second. At that moment, he shook his head slightly with a ferocious smile.
――This is my fight, interference is not needed.
Receiving the silent message, Rize decided to withdraw her soul dress〈Withered Parasol〉that was on the verge of activation, and decided to stand witness to Bacchus’ final moment.
「More importantly, that body… wasn’t going to hold anymore. Even with the power of the phantom spirit〈Sephirot〉, it didn’t seem to support him at all. Even if there wasn’t a battle today, his life would have only lasted a few more days… Well, Bacchus himself seemed to have known that the best. That’s why he chose his own final moments and entrusted everything to Allen Rodore.」
