Chapter 3: Those Lying in Wait

The fabricated world formed by the Dimensional Cornerstone could be manipulated by the magic tool’s wielder. That said, they didn’t have complete control of this space. Were that possible, Harrison Addington would’ve isolated Majima Takahiro from his allies immediately after the teleportation.

Currently, the marshal of the Holy Order was operating the Dimensional Cornerstone, but couldn’t give it more than broad directions which took time to be reflected in reality. It was practically impossible to use in response to his enemies’ movements. However, knowing where his enemies were coming from, he could transform the corridors ahead of time so that they were more convenient for his own forces.

At present, the spot Majima Takahiro found himself in only had paths leading to the space Harrison and his men were occupying. Kaneki Mikihiko had been dispatched with Edgar to a large room along the path that’d been prepared beforehand.

The room gave off the impression of an arena. It was about as vast as a school sports ground. Corridors sat high above the room, encircling the circumference. There were only two exits. Unless the two men were defeated, there was no getting through. It was technically possible to run past them, but that would leave Majima Takahiro pincered between the two giving chase from behind and the knights lying in wait farther down the corridor.

There were no other knights around. It was strange. For the last few months, Kaneki Mikihiko had basically always had several knights nearby monitoring him. At the very least, one had always remained attached to him. Due to his obedience, the surveillance had slackened recently, but he hadn’t been permitted to do as he liked.

Edgar was at most being used as a remnant of the Fourth Company, so wasn’t here to keep an eye on him. By all rights, it would’ve been normal to have other knights here to keep watch. Nevertheless, it’d been decided that the two would be fine alone. This was definitely a conclusion that had taken into consideration the nature of the man known as Edgar Guivarch.

Edgar only had an interest in battle and had deep resentment toward Majima Takahiro. Even if Kaneki Mikihiko tried anything imprudent, Edgar would cut him down on the spot. That was their belief. Although, in reality, sound judgment wasn’t always correct. Perhaps this was more so the case with the Battle Ogre, who was an avatar of recklessness.

This had happened just moments ago. Saying he had nothing to lose, Kaneki Mikihiko had told Edgar that he wanted to check on Katou Mana’s condition. Edgar hadn’t refused. Even if it was just for a short time, Kaneki Mikhiko had slipped past all watchful eyes. As a result, it’d been possible for him to come in contact with Katou Mana without Harrison’s orders.

“I’m going. I don’t have a choice.”

“Katou, you just sit tight right here and believe in him.”

The reason he’d been able to leave her those words was because of Edgar’s whimsy. As for the knight
