“Hnn!” Lightly grasping the hilt with one hand, Jildegrieva casually swept the blade to the side. This was to heft it up onto his shoulders, but he unintentionally created a shockwave.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

It bore a gigantic hole sideways from the crater they were in. The thin wall of the crater crumbled, replaced by a huge rift that extended far into the distance.

“Whoops, sorry! The one downside of this thing’s that it’s so powerful!”

As Jildegrieva spoke, his body changed. The gleam of the gigantic golden sword that Carraldo had become began to suffuse Jildegrieva as well, turning his body just as golden and hardened.

A warrior with a golden giant sword and golden wings—this, surely, was the dux’s final form.

Just looking at him, Inglis could sense a force as sublime as it was powerful. No way...

“Are you using...aether?!”

The wavelength she sensed differed both from her own typical one and from that of the Steelblood Front’s leader. But there was no mistaking its nature—that of a deity wholly unlike Goddess Alistia, who had made Inglis a demigod divine knight. Worst case, it could be from one quite close to a demon.

Thus far, Dux Jildegrieva had shown no signs of either mana or aether, facing Inglis with only the might of his strong body. But now, he had almost become one with the sword Carraldo had turned into, and he was awash with aether. This raised his power in battle to a level incomparable to before. Inglis was sure of it. And she didn’t have many options of standing against his aether.

“Now, don’t hold back, Inglis! Show me the power that hunted down a Prismer!”

She laughed. “If you’re asking that of me, I suppose I must. However, I plan to make this a two-on-two, so that it’s fair!” Smiling, she looked toward the rim of the crater. “Eris—”

But the hieral menace wasn’t there. Instead, Eris was already a step ahead, having jumped down to stand at Inglis’s side. “It’s okay. I’m here. You’re going to wield me, right?”

“Y-Yes... If you’re okay with that.” Inglis had thought Eris might object, but she was surprisingly proactive about transforming for Inglis. That was out of the ordinary.

“It’s okay. Let’s do this!” Eris confirmed.

Inglis paused, still unsure. “This isn’t very like you, is it?”

Eris was, as she’d happily admit herself, not one who looked for fights; she only fought when necessary. Of the two hieral menaces, Ripple was more understanding of fighting for fun. So, if anything, Inglis had expected Eris to be the first to object.

“I never expected it would come to this, but we can’t waste a chance for a match with a Highlander general. For the sake of what comes next...”

Those few words gave Inglis a picture of what Eris was thinking. A comparison—she wanted to see a comparison between Jildegrieva, the greatest force Highland could bring to bear, and Inglis, the greatest force with which the surface could resist. Depending on the results, the attitude the surface could take toward Highland might change. It was a question that could sway whether they should continue in subservience.
