—I feel like I should compliment her on her skills, but for some reason, I just don’t feel like it. Why is that, I wonder...?

Once he saw that Korone had made it to safety, Akuto turned back towards his opponent. His opponent, of course, was the shadow, as it was obvious that it was controlling the bats. Each individual bat was an artificial life form — when he looked down at their corpses on the ground, he could tell. They were very simple devices, but that made it hard to seize control of them. You could say that the shadow had tamed these artificial creatures. Moreover, creatures like these could be mass-produced. If the shadow was human, it had to be incredibly talented, and it wouldn’t be easy to defeat.

But he knew at the same time that if he ran away, the shadow wouldn’t follow. And it felt like it was trying to avoid dealing him a fatal blow. But since Eiko had no intention of retreating, of course, she was being attacked without mercy. Things were just getting worse and worse. Even now he could see the number of tiny cuts and scrapes on her body growing in number. There was a chance she might eventually die.

“This isn’t good at all. There’s something wrong with me...” Akuto whispered. It was a bad habit of his to always think calmly and clearly in situations like these.

He had an idea of how to end this. It would be difficult, but for some reason, he felt like he could do it.

In the end, being around Eiko was starting to have an effect on him. She was trying to accomplish something, even at the cost of her own life. Whether that came from trust in him, or from the importance of her goal, he didn’t know, but he had a feeling that he needed to see this treasure.

Of course, it was dangerous to help Eiko in her goals. It was clear she was planning something. But instead of being used, and not knowing why, he would rather know the reason and choose his path for himself.

Akuto shouted towards the shadow.

“Sorry, I’ve changed my mind! I’ve decided I’m going to look at what you’re protecting! I’m not going to do anything really terrible to you, so please don’t hate me!”

The shadow seemed surprised for a moment, but then the bats started to attack him with greater intensity. But Akuto was calm.

—I’ll use this...

He took one of the whirlwind bullets that he’d used a moment ago, and snapped it in two with his fingers. The magical signal activated, and a small whirlwind appeared in his hands.

—I was able to control this mana. Which means that my own mana must be so powerful that I can’t control any magic that’s physically close to me... And if that’s the case...

Akuto strengthened the whirlwind in his hands. The sound of the wind was like the sound of an explosion now — it was like a typhoon had suddenly sprang up in the room.
